"Kill, capture Taishan County, kill all the Han people" The Son of Heaven was angry and bled for thousands of miles, the emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty could do it, and the emperor of the Tang State could do the same.
Li Shimin, who was humiliated by Liu Wei, was furious and gave Li Keyong an order to slaughter the city, but if there was resistance wherever he went, he would slaughter the whole city, leaving no one behind.
With Li Shimin's order, wolf smoke rose everywhere in Qingzhou, and more than 300,000 Tang soldiers began to launch a fierce attack on the territory controlled by the Eastern Han Dynasty in three ways.
Under the command of Li Keyong, a team composed of 30,000 Tang troops and 20,000 Wei troops was violent, rushing to Fei County at a speed of 100 miles a day.
Li Ke used 15,000 men and horses to unify himself in the center, Shi Jingsi led 15,000 men on the right, Cao Di and Li Jin led 20,000 Wei troops on the left, and the distance between the soldiers and horses of the three roads was about 15 miles.
The Wei soldiers were quite disgusted by the slogan of the Tang army, and protested to the main generals Cao Di and Li Jin, demanding to intervene: "Why did the Tang army shout to kill the Han people, doesn't this mean that even our allies will be slaughtered?"
Cao Di smiled and calmed the hearts of the army: "Hehe, the soldiers don't have to think about it, we are now the soldiers of the Wei State, and our people are the Wei people, and the Tang army wants to slaughter the Han people, what does it have to do with us?"
After listening to Cao Di's explanation, the 20,000 Cao soldiers were stunned, and then they all realized that "yes, we are no longer Han people", although it is easy to say, but why there is always a heavy feeling in my heart The three-way heroic division traveled northward, invincible all the way, and soon approached a place fifty miles away from Fei County.
"Lord Qiyu Duwei, there is a dock fort called Zhujiazhuang in front, relying on the fortress to defend the villa, neither escaped nor fled" The commander who received the report was called Pu for three years, and his official position was about the same as that of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and he was in charge of 3,000 soldiers, and was appointed as the vanguard by the chief general Li Keyong, responsible for destroying the city and pulling out the village, opening roads and filling bridges in the mountains.
After getting the scout's report, Pu Sannian let out a gloomy laugh: "My Tang Emperor has an order, if there is resistance, all will be slaughtered, I have not seen blood all the way north, it's time to kill, since the people of Zhujiazhuang are begging for death, they will be fulfilled, and the sons and daughters will attack with all their might, and I will kill a chicken and dog without leaving behind."
Pu Sannian urged the horse to dance the knife, leading the three thousand Tang troops to run forward, and surrounded Zhujiazhuang like a gust of wind. did not persuade him to surrender, and directly carried the ladder to launch a strong attack.
"Whoosh", for a time the arrows rained down, Zhuang Ding on the wall of the dock fort held his bow and arrows and shot angrily at the Tang army charging under the wall, the Tang army did not show weakness, eight hundred crossbowmen lined up a phalanx to shoot at the wall, the arrows collided in the air, making a crackling sound.
But the whole Zhujiazhuang including the old and young women and children including more than a thousand people, remove the old men and women, women, children and children, can go to the battlefield only more than 300 people, although the people are fierce, every household shoots and hunts, every family chops wood, but the equipment is backward, the organization is disorderly, and the general bandits and grass can protect themselves, and the regular army has no power to parry at all.
From the launch of the battle to the breach of the dock fort, it was only half an hour before and after, under the leadership of Pu Sansan, the Tang army soldiers climbed the city wall one after another along the ladder, brandished a big knife and cut Zhuang Ding over the wall, the heads of people rolled, and the corpses were all over the ground.
After the wall was breached, the remaining old and weak women and children became lambs to be slaughtered, the old women and young children were mercilessly cut and killed, and the young women were ruthlessly destroyed and, for a time the screams shook the world, the whole Zhujiazhuang was like a purgatory, and the burning beacon fire even overshadowed the light of the scorching sun.
Pu Nian walked out of a house with his pants on, and waved his hand contentedly and ordered his soldiers: "Brothers, give it to me, this girl is tender and white, give me a good release today, and go back to kill the enemy for me."
The unscrupulous Tang Jun let out an arrogant lewd laugh, and the fireworks were full of the smell of sin.
Another pro-soldier came to ask: "Lord Qiyu, the owner of Zhujiazhuang was captured alive, what should I do?"
"Five horses split the corpse" Pu Sannian waved his hand and was ruthless.
"You Tang Kou are full of evil, and sooner or later I will avenge the people."
In front of the gate of Zhujiazhuang, the fifty-year-old owner of the village was tied to his limbs and neck by five war horses of the Tang army, and with a burst of people shouting and neighing, he was torn into five pieces from the middle, blood splashed, and his liver splashed on the ground, which made people feel sick.
However, for more than an hour, Zhujiazhuang was slaughtered, more than 1,000 women and children of old and young people did not survive, even the cattle and sheep in the pigsty, the rooster that reported the dawn, and the yellow dog that guarded the door were also slaughtered.
The Tang army easily washed Zhujiazhuang in blood and continued to press towards Fei County, and the county commander learned that the Tang army was powerful and extremely vicious, so he hurriedly organized the people to evacuate and flee for their lives, and fled in the direction of Qufu.
Li Keyong led the Tang army to the city of Feixian, and the people in the city had already fled, leaving only some rich people who were reluctant to open their families and surrender, kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.
Li Ke waved his big hand: "Those who surrender can be spared death, but their property must be confiscated" Under the connivance of Li Keyong, the Tang army unscrupulously plundered in the city of Feixian, and women who were defiled by the opportunity abounded, but fortunately, their lives were saved.
Only pity those people who fled for their lives to Qufu, they were chased and killed by Li Keyong with 3,000 cavalry, and killed corpses all over the field on the shore of Surabaya, and more than 4,000 people died.
After Li Keyong broke through Fei County, he continued to wave his troops to the north, ordered Cao Di and Li Jin to attack Wuyang, and ordered Pu to lead the forward troops to storm Mengyin, and ordered to take two county towns within one day.
Cao Di and Li Jin's army came to the city, Wuyang County ordered the door to open the door and surrender, kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy: "The two armies are fighting, the people are innocent, fortunately it was General Cao who attacked Wuyang, so that the people of the city will not be in trouble, the small officials specially opened the door to surrender, and asked for the life of the people of the city, please raise your noble hand and spare the people of the city" Cao Di bowed his head and said: "For the killing of the Tang army, the general does not agree, since you are waiting to open the door and surrender, you will be the people of Wei from now on, and you will not offend each other if you appease the people well."
So Cao Di came out of the list to calm the people, and appointed a county commander and a county lieutenant to take over local public security, crack down on lawbreakers who took the opportunity to loot, and let Wuyang County escape a catastrophe.
Compared with the Wuyang County Commander who opened the door and surrendered, Dong Zhen, who was sent by Xiao Hexin to Mengyin to serve as the county commander, held the heart of death, gathered 400 county soldiers in the city, 300 messengers, and encouraged more than 1,000 strong people to climb the city wall and defend the city.
"Soldiers, colleagues, all Sangzi, the Lu of the king should repay the king's kindness, Tang Kou invaded, we are also dead and surrendered, it is better to have a vigorous war, or to leave a name in history, report to the court, and go down to the people" Dong County, who was thirty years old, wore helmets and armor, loudly encouraging the morale of the defenders on the city wall.
Encouraged by the Dong County Order, the fighting spirit of the defenders at the head of the city was ignited, and they responded in unison: "I wish to fight to the death with the county order, the city is in the people, and the city is dead."
An hour later, Pu Sansan, the commander of the Tang Army, led 3,000 vanguard troops to the city of Mengyin, and launched a fierce offensive with a shout.
In an instant, crossbow arrows flew, rolling stones fell like hailstones, and the trees swept across with a whistling sound, and many Tang troops who climbed up the ladder were hit, screaming and falling to the ground, either with broken bones or brains bursting.
After more than an hour of onslaught, the Tang army lost more than 500 people, and Mengyin City was still standing, Pu Sansan couldn't help but be furious, personally attacked the city with a sword, and climbed up the ladder: "The warriors of the Tang Dynasty, if you can't even take a small county town, how to conquer the Han Kingdom, how to go to Jinling to sleep Liu Wei's woman, give me my life to attack the city" Crossbow arrows flew on the head of the city, and Pu Sansan carried a shield and a big sword, and climbed up without fear of death, blocking all the crossbow arrows and rolling stones that were shot, and he was about to climb the city wall.
"Buddhism clouds, I don't go to hell, who goes to hell" Dong Xianling's eyes erupted with fire, and he suddenly jumped down from the city wall, hugged Pu Sansan, and fell from the four-zhang high city wall at the same time like an eagle with folded wings, "Bang Dang", only the Pu Sansan, who was padding underneath, fell to the ground, and his eyes were full of stars, "I am also in pain" "Kill my people, slaughter my people, and they will perish with you today" Dong Zhen roared, raised the dagger in his hand, and slashed Pu Sansan's throat with a knife, and red blood gushed out instantly.
Pu San held his throat and struggled in pain a few times, kicked his legs, and died of exhaustion.
"Catch this Han official" Seeing that the main general was killed, the Tang army panicked for a while, and came to arrest Dong County, who was injured in a fall, with a knife and gun.
Dong Zhen laughed: "The Son of Heaven guards the country, why don't we and other courtiers regret to kill a Tang general and die as he deserves" Before the words fell, Dong Zhen raised a dagger and stabbed it into her chest, falling to the ground on the spot, even if she died, she was firmly pressed on Park Sansan's body.
"Fight to the death for Dong County's order" Inspired by Dong Zhen's tragedy, the county soldiers, errand soldiers, and the people on the city head fought to the death in blood, braving the rain of arrows and entangled and killed the Tang army, and many old and weak women and children climbed the city wall, demolished their own rubble, green bricks, and threw them at the Tang army below the city wall to block the Tang army's siege.
After the main general was killed, this Tang army filled in more than 500 lives, and it was still difficult to break through Mengyin, so it could only temporarily stop and send scouts to report to the main general Li Keyong to ask for support.
Li Keyong was furious when he heard this, smashed his fist on the flagpole, and roared: "A small Mengyin county town has lost a general, so how can I pacify Qingzhou and quickly pass on my order, and order Shi Jingsi to lead his white robe to attack Mengyin first, break the city, and leave the old and young behind." t1706231537:
