    Relying on the urgently mobilized Tibetan mountain people, the Han army easily opened the entrance of Jingxing, but it paid a high price. Even the battle flags could freeze and crack in such weather. The mountain road was rugged, and it became even more difficult to walk after it was frozen.  Hundreds of soldiers died, and it was precisely because of this weather that the attack was unexpectedly successful.  After taking Jingxingkou, there were no insurmountable obstacles in front of them. The rear troops of the Han army began to move in continuously, while the forward battalions still rushed forward in the snow and rushed to Taiyuan Prefecture.  In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the Jin army was hiding in the barracks, and the mountain people were hiding at home. In this damn weather, no one would go out and run around. On the mountain road, only the forward infantry of the Han army wearing the uniforms of the Jin army were risking their lives.  Snow March.  Yuan Feng personally led his troops to fight against Taiyuan. On the one hand, it was because there was his own younger brother Chengping in Taiyuan City. Another reason was that after this battle, there would be no big battles in the world. If he did not take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy himself, there would be no more  Opportunity.  After passing Jingxingkou, the splendid Taiyuan City was not far away. The heavy snow that had fallen all night had stopped, but the wind was still blowing. It was cold for several days and there were few people outside. Even so, the Han army stepped up their march and tried to get there as soon as possible.  At the foot of Taiyuan City.  God of Soldiers, all the temporarily unnecessary baggage was left behind, leaving it for the follow-up troops to pack up. The troops marched forward lightly, trotting on the solid snowy road. From time to time, someone slipped and fell, but no one complained, and they just got up silently.  Keep up with the team. Even though every member of this team is a carefully selected strong soldier, there are still many people who fall behind when they reach the gate of Taiyuan City.  Only a little over 2,000 of the 5,000-man army remained.  Due to the difficulty of traveling on the road, it was already early in the morning when we arrived at the city. At the head of the tall and majestic Taiyuan City, a large flag embroidered with the word "Fu" was curled up listlessly. There was not a single person in sight. The city gate was closed and the water in the moat was already wet.  It's frozen to the core. The weather is really cold. In the season when dripping water turns to ice, no one will come out and stand if nothing happens. Especially in Taiyuan City, the core area controlled by the Fu family, there are many mountains on all sides.  Having not seen the enemy for ten years, one can imagine the slackness of the soldiers.  The soldiers on duty hid in the Tibetan soldier's cave to warm themselves up by the fire and drink wine. They didn't even bother to go out to urinate. They just peeed in clay pots and waited until daytime before going out to pour. The soldiers who were not on duty lay in the barracks and slept soundly.  There is nothing happier than curling up in bed in winter.  Soldiers are like this, not to mention officials. They are all natives of their hometown. How can they live in a barracks with these smelly Qiu Ba? Even the little Boss Bai replied  At home, my wife and children were kept on the hot bed, and I went to live a small life.  It¡¯s almost the New Year¡¯s Eve, and even the Han army has to celebrate the New Year. Hundreds of miles away in the mountains, it¡¯s still snowing heavily, and it¡¯s only the madmen who are attacking us.  I don't know whose rooster crowed for the first time, and then all the roosters in Taiyuan City started crowing one after another. Although it was still dark, it was already five o'clock, and the soldier guarding the gate reluctantly got up from his bed.  , slowly put on the cotton robe, came to the city gate, unbolted the door, and slowly pushed the heavy door open.  There are already dozens of people waiting at the door. They look like they are wearing the clothes. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the marshal¡¯s sons will come back to give them gifts. I¡¯m afraid these people are the gift-giving team.  "Brothers, you guys must be the second master's people, come in quickly and light up the fire. Thank you for your hard work in this cold weather." The warm-hearted doorman from the ancient road greeted enthusiastically.  The visitor gave a vague agreement and swarmed in. The doorman didn't notice anything was wrong yet and held up a lantern to guide the way: "Be careful, the road is slippery. I don't know who spilled urine on the road.  " Without hearing a reply, I heard the whistling wind behind me. Those "Second Master's people" actually rushed directly to the top of the city. Some people pulled out the shining weapons. Outside the city gate, there was another wave of darkness.  People showed up.  Men Ding realized that something was wrong, but it was too late. He had been knocked down long ago.  At five o'clock in the morning, it was still dark and everything was dark, so the Han army entered the city. The vanguard troops were all wearing the uniforms of the Jingxingkou garrison. They looked the same as Fu Youde's army. The weather and clothing concealed their whereabouts well.  Even if Fu Jun soldiers who came out to relieve themselves saw them, they would treat them as comrades-in-arms.  Several quick-footed Han soldiers gathered together, took out a blueprint and looked at it under the lantern. This was the defense map of Taiyuan City drawn by the Military Command Department. They followed the map and quickly found the military camp under the city wall.  The gate guard of the military camp is useless. The soldiers standing on guard have long gone to find a place to take shelter from the wind with their guns in their arms. In this damn weather, it is really necessary to stand at the gate for half a night without freezing to death. In the huge military camp, there is a layer of snow on the ground, even half of it.  There were no footprints, and rows of military camps stood silent in the pre-dawn darkness.  The soldiers walked over, threw out ropes, climbed up to the roof, and blocked the chimney with rags. Dozens of people worked together, and it was done in less than a quarter of an hour.  Fu Jun¡¯s barracks, second floorOne person sleeps in a big room with a large fire bed, which is warm, but there are safety risks. If the chimney is not clear, the people in the room may be in danger.  Log in to 6 and support the genuine Wulin Empire.  Fu Youde ran the army rigorously. In addition to the officers' sidearms, spears, swords, firecrackers, bows and crossbows were all stored in the armory. Special officers held the keys and could not take them at will. This was also convenient for the Han army. In view of the lack of troops,  There were so many scraps of copper and iron that they didn't like, so they simply poured oil on them and lit them on fire.  When the weapons depot burned, the genius had just dawned. Every household started to light a fire to cook, and the diligent people came out with shovels and brooms to clear the snow. The entire Taiyuan City was shrouded in smoke. Suddenly, a raging fire broke out under the city wall, attracting people.  Attention of the people.  "Isn't that the camp? Why are you so excited?" A commoner scratched his head in confusion. The camp door next door opened with a bang, and a man rushed out with his clothes on: "**! How come the camp was ordered!"  The officers in Fu's army were awakened by the fire, but it was too late. Eighty percent of the soldiers in the barracks died of gas poisoning. Occasionally, those who approached the door and were lucky enough to survive would throw on their clothes and rush out of the door, only to be held down with their bare hands.  , and there was no officer to command them, so they had no choice but to become prisoners.  The garrison in Taiyuan City was originally a few thousand strong, because Taiyuan is located in the center of the Jinzhong Plain. Except for one of the main forces of Fu's army stationed in Datong to defend against the Mongols, most of them were in the south and east to defend against the Han army. Who could have predicted?  The Han army actually crossed Jingxingkou on such a snowy night and attacked Taiyuan City unexpectedly.  No one could have estimated the courage of Yuan Feng and the perseverance of the Han army. Fu Youde, the admiral of the Zhou army in Shanxi, was no exception. This very senior commander had now become a powerful leader. Even the emperor had to listen to his greetings. For  Fu Youde has no clear judgment on the general trend of the world. He just holds one purpose, that is, you fight your own, as long as it does not hinder me from becoming the king of Shanxi.  This morning, Fu Youde was still immersed in sleep when he heard the noise outside. Having been in the army for many years, he subconsciously wanted to lift the quilt and go out to take a look, but Wu Yiniang snorted sweetly: "Master, don't go out, what's the matter?  Just give me a shout." Fu Youde thought about it and shouted outside: "What's the matter?" The answer came from outside: "The commander said, the armory is on fire." Fu Youde yelled: "It's already happened."  How many times have I said that the weather is dry and things are dry, so be careful with the candles. Some bastard is burning firewood in the armory. Find it and chop it up." After saying that, he turned over and went to sleep again.  "Commander, we sent people to check, but they haven't come back yet." From the Marshal's Mansion to the barracks under the city wall, it was just a short run. Why haven't he come back yet? Fu Youde felt something was wrong.  Looking east through the open tiles from the window, I saw a plume of black smoke rising into the sky. This fire was not small!  The fire burned like this, and the general of the camp did not come to apologize. This was strange. Fu Youde had been guarding Shanxi for many years and was still a little wary. He quickly grabbed his clothes and put them on. Wu Yiniang had no choice but to get up, exposing her red bellyband and  With snow-white and smooth skin, while helping the handsome man get dressed, he complained coquettishly to the restless Qiu Ba.  There was a "bang" explosion, maybe the gunpowder magazine exploded, and dust fell all over the room. Now Fu Youde was even more panicked. There was a fire, but no one went to save it. Even the gunpowder magazine was blown up. This is amazing.  He hurriedly put on his boots and rushed out. Outside the door, a group of soldiers were ready, pulling in war horses to wait for the commander to mount, and headed straight for the east city.  Fu Youde lives in the inner city of Taiyuan. This is a city within a city with strong fortresses and tight defenses. All the soldiers stationed there are Fu Youde's soldiers, so the Han army has not yet entered.  After leaving the city gate, a group of people were walking forward on the icy road. When they turned the corner, a group of soldiers came towards them. They looked like their own soldiers in uniform, but the formation was quite strange. They were not lined up in columns, but  The skirmishers were sparsely lined up and marching in staggered formations.  Fu Youde's guard captain shouted: "Which department are you from?" The person on the other side didn't even say anything. He immediately fell to the ground and started firing. The street was suddenly filled with white gunpowder smoke and red gunfire.  Covered, a large group of soldiers who were caught off guard were knocked down on the spot. If the guard captain hadn't acted quickly, even Fu Youde would have been shot.  The soldiers were well-trained after all. They had no time to load gunpowder projectiles, so they just drew their swords and charged forward. The enemy on the opposite side also came towards them with their swords drawn out, and the two sides fought together.  Fu Youde got up from the ground and hurriedly retreated to the inner city under the protection of the guards. Until now, he had not realized that the Han army had entered the city. Instead, he thought that his men had rebelled. As soon as the old man entered the city, the city gate exploded.  After closing the door, sirens blared, and the soldiers who were still asleep hurriedly got up, put on their clothes and rushed out, going up the city wall to defend themselves against the enemy.    Fu Youde was furious. He climbed up the wall of the inner city and looked towards the place where the encounter had just occurred. The battle was over. There were dozens of corpses lying on the ground, all wearing the same uniforms. It was impossible to see who was who. There were piles of corpses.  His blood had solidified, which was terrifying.  A burning smell came over him. He subconsciously looked at his body. There was a small burnt black hole in his chest. When he dug into it, he found a still-warm projectile. Fu Youde was immediately sweating. He had been playing for a lifetime.  The eagle almost pecked his eyes.  At this time, the "rebels" had hid at the corner of the street, and a tooth flag poked out, with a Chinese character written on it!  "Commander Fu, surrender, Master Wang has entered Taiyuan City, there is no way out for stubborn resistance." His accent was obviously not from Shanxi, and Fu Youde couldn't help but shuddered. Could it be that the Han army had really invaded?  At this time, the armory was still burning, the flames reflected half of the sky red, and the thick smoke was very scary. The people in the city didn't know what was going on. Some looked around and saw the soldiers all over the street, and they shrank back in fear.   In the palace of Emperor Shuntian of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhang Chengping stayed up all night and fell asleep in a daze in the early morning. In his dream, he saw his mother, father, Zhang Shicheng's face intertwined with the face of his biological father whom he had never met before, and he couldn't tell them apart.  Who is who? In short, the vague shadow was his father. He was struggling in pain when suddenly the sound of a cannon woke him up.  It wasn't the sound of cannons, but the explosion of Fu Jun's gunpowder magazine. Zhang Chengping woke up suddenly. He had not taken off his clothes. At this time, he went out directly and saw a cloud of black smoke to the east. The sleepy little eunuchs also got up and looked suspicious.  looking outside.  Could it beimpossible? No matter how fast the Han army was, they couldn't break into Taiyuan City on this midwinter night. Maybe it was just a fire. Zhang Chengping shook his head and was about to enter the house when suddenly there was a noise outside the palace gate.  Yang Feng broke through the obstruction of the servants and rushed in. He was disheveled and looked like he had just gotten up. When he saw Zhang Chengping, he shouted: "Your Majesty, it's bad, the Han army has entered the city!" Zhang Chengping was shocked and then sighed.  : "Is it going to end so soon?" "What is the ending? The official mm's heroic appearance uploaded it. Your Majesty, I will escort you to Mongolia. Let's assemble the army and fight again." Yang Feng said eagerly, and then scolded Yu Feng.  "You damn eunuch, why don't you hurry up and get your majesty the mink fur cloak." Yufeng stood still, and the emperor also stood still. He just said calmly: "Yang Qing's family, don't be busy, I can't afford to go anywhere.  , just wait here." Yang Feng stamped his foot: "Why did your Majesty say this? Have you been bewitched by some traitor?" Zhang Chengping said: "I am not your Majesty, I am tired, and I don't want to fight anymore.  , fighting for power." Seeing his sad expression and the people around him standing still, Yang Feng became angry and said angrily: "You can't help Adou, you don't want to be the emperor, there are many people who do, where is the jade seal?"  Chengping said: "It's in the imperial study room, just take it if you need it." Yang Feng rushed into the imperial study room in a hurry, and soon came out with a Ming bundle in his arms, and ran straight out without even looking at Zhang Chengping.  Zhang Chengping gave a wry smile and said to Yu Feng: "You should go too, see if there is anything valuable, and take it with you."  Fu Youde has surrendered. His troops are hundreds of miles away and cannot be dissolved by water.  The situation was close to thirst, and the Han army was advancing continuously. Apart from surrender, there was only one way to go: destruction. The wise Marshal Fu finally chose to surrender, but he asked the Han army to treat his subordinates well. Shanxi was the last ununified country.  In the area, the Han army did not want too many killings, so they naturally accepted the conditions. The gate of the inner city opened, and the dejected Fu Jun filed out, throwing their weapons and armor aside. After a while, they piled up into a hill.  The old general Fu Youde was disgraced. Under the leadership of an officer, he came to the leading general of the Han army. Although he surrendered, his pride was still there. Fu Youde simply held his fist and said: "Fu Youde, the old and defeated general." That tall Han general.  He looked like he was only twenty-five or six years old. He smiled kindly and replied: "My lord, Liu Yuanfeng, General Fu is so polite." Fu Youde was shocked. He was so young and so brave.  Attack Taiyuan, this battle will not be lost unfairly!  At the top of Taiyuan City, the flag representing Emperor Shuntian was lowered, and a large red flag slowly rose. At this time, the clouds dispersed, and a red sun suddenly appeared, spreading golden light. Taiyuan City, which had been gloomy for many days, finally ushered in  A sunny day.
