Text Chapter 434: Taking Yanzhou lightly

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Lu Junyi led hundreds of cavalry into Yanzhou City. He did not take any credit, but commanded his troops to guard the city gate and receive the army behind him to enter the city.

    Seeing that Lu Junyi and Yan Qing had led troops to the city, Lang Yanyan felt ashamed and panicked. He rushed towards the three defenders who were stubbornly resisting without caring about their own safety.

    "careful"

    Lang Nianyan cut down the two men, and then heard the clan members behind scream, and a cold light came straight to the front door.

    Seeing that Lang Nianyan was about to die under the sword of the defender, suddenly a cold star flashed, and a crossbow arrow appeared in the throat of the defender who was wielding the sword, and he turned over and fell to the ground.

    Everyone turned to look, but it was Yan Qing who saved Lang Nianyan's life with a crossbow arrow.

    Lang Yanyan breathed a sigh of relief after narrowly escaping death, turned over and prostrated, and kowtowed: "Thank you, General, for saving your life."

    Yan Qing helped Langya Yanming up and said with a smile: "Now you and I are both from Daliang, so we should help each other."

    Lang Nianyan stood up and returned the bag tied to his waist to Yan Qing, saying: "There are not many defenders, so we didn't use the divine thunder."

    Fire thunder is a controlled item in the military, and the amount used must be recorded. Yan Qing cannot use it as a favor, take the bag, and return it to Lu Junyi's soldiers.

    The soldier opened the bag, checked the number of fire mines, and then put it away.

    Lu Junyi had just commanded the troops and horses to set up formations below and above the city. The sound of horse hooves came from far away, but it was the defenders in the city who heard the sound of horns and came over.

    "It's Daliang soldiers and horses, withdraw."

    The Xixia general who rushed in first saw the soldiers and horses in black clothes and armor at the top of the city. He exclaimed, turned his horse's head and fled.

    When the soldiers behind heard the news, they immediately became confused. The people in front directly reined in their horses, while the people behind couldn't restrain their horses and bumped into them.

    After a burst of horses neighing and people shouting, the Yanzhou defenders fled in panic more than a hundred steps away.

    Deng Fei, who was waiting in formation below the city, saw the Xixia soldiers and horses in chaos on the street in front, turned his head and shouted to the city: "The last general asked for orders to hunt down the Xixia soldiers and horses."

    Lu Junyi saw that the dust brought up by the charge of the army outside the city was not far away.  He then said, "Okay, just lead your troops and drive all the soldiers and horses in the city out of the city."

    "Get the order."

    In the distance, the Yanzhou defenders saw Daliang soldiers and horses pouring in like a flood after a dike broke, and they fled for their lives.

    Soon, the army from outside the city also arrived. Lu Junyi divided his troops to capture the gates on all sides, and then sent a team of soldiers and horses to kill the soldiers in the city.

    Within half an hour, there was no sound of fighting in Yanzhou City. Most of the soldiers and horses fled upon hearing the news, and most of the soldiers and horses who could not escape abandoned their weapons and surrendered.  Only a few people resisted and were easily killed by Liangshan veterans.

    As he entered the Yamen, Lu Junyi's soldiers immediately made two cups of tea.

    Open the tea lid, and the aroma of tea will steam up immediately.

    He used the tea that Lu Junyi was used to drinking on weekdays, but he had just drank water with the taste of leather for three days in the desert.  Suddenly the tea was replaced with fresh water, and the aroma of the tea seemed to be much more fragrant than before.

    Lu Junyi drank a cup of tea, then put down the teacup with unfinished content and said: "Yanzhou has been captured, where should we go next?"

    Yan Qing also put down the tea cup in his hand and said: "We might as well stay in Yanzhou. Although Xue Sichang wants to block Renzhong's soldiers and horses on Huanqing Road in order to find a way out, he may not be able to block Renzhong's 200,000 soldiers and horses.  Most of his subordinates are Jianing Military Division and Xiangyou Military Division. They should come to Yanzhou after they return. We can wait for a while and kill him. "

    Lu Junyi thought for a moment and said, "Will they go north along the Lingzhou River to save Xingqing Mansion?"

    Yan Qing said with a smile: "Looking at the way the Yanzhou defenders fled after hearing the news today, the Xixia soldiers and horses may have lost their courage. Renzhong's army fled all the way back, and they probably won't go to the Yinchuan Plain to die again."

    Lu Junyi nodded and said: "As you can see, the soldiers and horses under my command have traveled thousands of miles. Let's rest in Yanzhou. If there are military achievements coming to our door, we will accept them; if not, that's it."

    Yan Qing said: "Master can still accomplish some merits without sending troops."

    "Oh? What should I say?"

    Hearing what Yan Qing said, Lu Junyi became interested. He put the tea cup that the soldier had just changed on the table and looked at Yan Qing.

    Yan Qing said with a smile: "Judging from the guards in Yanzhou just now, the Xixia people have been frightened by our attack. We can try to recruit some tribes to surrender, saying that we can capture a few cities without having to use one soldier or one soldier."

    Lu Junyi also revealed everything immediately, and immediately sent his soldiers to invite Lang Yanming.

    Lang Yanyan entered the hall and bowed to the two of them.

    Lu Junyi pointed to a seat and said, "Sit down."

    "Thank you, General."

    ? ?Junyi said: "This time in capturing Yanzhou, your department should be responsible for the victory. Do you want to join the army or be a civil servant?"

    Lang Nian Yanming said awkwardly: "I don't know much about the villain, so I'm afraid I won't be able to be a civil servant."

    Lu Junyi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. To manage a state capital where various ministries are mixed, you still need some people who are familiar with the affairs of each ministry. It does not necessarily mean that you need to be literate."

    Lang Yanyan heard what Lu Junyi said and said happily: "I'm not afraid of the general's jokes. Our tribe is not aggressive, and we are not as brave as other tribes. Therefore, Xixia does not use our troops when ordering troops, but only lets our troops use money and food."  In lieu of military service.¡±

    Hearing Lang Yanyan say this, Lu Junyi and Yan Qing both nodded secretly.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Nearly a hundred people from the Langya Yanming tribe went to the city to deal with more than a dozen defenders. If they were Liangshan veterans, they would have cut the more than ten people into pieces in a matter of seconds.  However, the Langyouyan name tribe dragged reinforcements from five miles away and has not yet solved the problem. To say they are not good at fighting would be putting it mildly.

    Lu Junyi also understood Lang Nie Yanming's intention, nodded and said: "Then I will ask for an official position for you later."

    Yan Qing said from the side: "Your tribe was the first tribe to surrender in Weizhou, and you also led us across the vast sea to seize the city gate of Yanzhou. The general intends to hire an official position for you to assist in the management of the tribes in Weizhou."

    There are dozens of large and small tribes in Weizhou, and the Langduo Yanming tribe is not considered the majority. Although they only assist in the management of large and small tribes, the chief officer will undoubtedly be Han, and he can be regarded as the first person in each tribe.

    Lang Nian Yanming knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said: "General, I will never forget this great kindness."

    Lu Junyi nodded and said: "It needs to be approved by the court before it can be finalized. Get up."

    Lang Nian Yanming stood up and said: "No matter what, the villain will remember the general's kindness."

    Yan Qing said from the side: "If you can make more contributions, this matter will be certain."

    Hearing this, Lang Yanyan hurriedly said: "When the general needs a villain, he just gives orders. Even if he makes the villain climb mountains of swords and seas of fire, the villain will never frown."

    Yan Qing smiled and said, "You don't have to do anything. You come to Yanzhou often, so you must know something about all the ministries in Yanzhou, right?"

    "We often interact with various tribes, but the tribe of villains is not big, and those who come and go are the small leaders of each tribe."

    Lu Junyi nodded and said: "As long as you can talk, I want you to come forward to recruit all the tribes in Yanzhou and even the tribes in Youzhou, Hongzhou and other places."

    Lang Yaoyan famously said: "The little people in Yanzhou are familiar with each tribe, but they have never interacted with the tribes in Youzhou and Hongzhou. However, they all have to buy salt from the tribes in Yanzhou. The tribes in Yanzhou are not familiar with the tribes in Youzhou and Hongzhou.  The situation in Hongzhou is familiar.¡±

    Lu Junyi said: "Then you will be responsible for recruiting the Yanzhou tribe to surrender."

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? but Iwana was very confident about this matter, but there were some details that I still wanted to ask clearly, and said: "I wonder what conditions the villain can agree to them?"

    Lu Junyi smiled and said: "My army has captured Yanzhou and can send troops to wipe them out at any time. Do we still have to agree to any conditions?"

    Yan Qing said: "What they have to consider now is how to save their lives, rather than trying to save any property. They can escape with their cattle and sheep, but their salt pond cannot escape. Salt has always been controlled by the court, Xihe Road  All the salt wells of various ministries are also returned to the imperial court, without exception. However, if they perform meritorious deeds, the imperial court can allocate more pasture and farmland to them. "

    Lang Yanyan nodded and said: "I understand, I understand. There are various business houses in the city. I will contact them now."

    Lu Junyi said: "Give them three days. Once the three days are over, I will send troops to wipe out the tribes that have not submitted."

    Yanzhou has many salt ponds, some of which belong to the Xixia court, and some of which belong to the major tribes in Yanzhou. The main property of these tribes is the salt ponds of different sizes, so each tribe gathers near the salt ponds to protect the salt ponds.  These tribes can earn huge amounts of revenue from the salt ponds and tend to have larger populations.  It was these tribes that Lu Junyi wanted to recruit and surrender.  (To be continued)
