Chapter 65: Relationship "Break through."
The civil and military personnel were stunned again, then jumped up and shouted loudly, "Break through, break out with all your strength.
Only by staying useful can you repay the emperor's kindness."
"Silence, don't let the news leak out."
Xuexue immediately frowned again and scolded in a low voice, "We must maintain order when breaking out, so as not to be caught by Butcher Zhu too quickly.
I will lead the soldiers to the mansion first.
Yamen, you will come over later to discuss the details of the operation."
"Yes" Anyone who can hold an important position in the Forbidden Army must have a strong family behind him.
He is well-informed and his mind is far more flexible than the local generals.
In an instant, everyone understood Xuexue's "good intentions" and bowed down one after another, accepting the order in a low voice.
"Yes."
After learning about the affairs of the Privy Council, the imperial guard Daruhua Chi Xuexue nodded lightly, and then led his own soldiers out of the enemy tower and walked quickly down the horse path.
Other civil and military personnel were divided into several waves, pretending to be nonchalant, and followed one after another.
After a while, no senior officers could be seen on the east watchtower and city wall of Jinan City.
Only a few loyal households ran around at the risk of being killed by artillery shells, urging their soldiers to use all means to fight back against the Huai'an army outside the city.
The Huai'an army had too few troops outside Jinan City and was simply unable to siege the city.
Of course, it cannot prevent the enemy from decisively "breaking through".
The guards were using the city car to dig holes under the east wall when they suddenly noticed that the disturbance above their heads had disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, I heard a sound of crying and cursing, "You are so wicked, you little maid raised a filthy son of a bitch and you didn't even tell me."
"Damn slave Kangli, it is in vain that your majesty thinks so highly of you" Note 1 "Hurry up, hurry up, all the officials are gone.
Why are we still here messing around?"
Amidst the chaos of crying and cursing, the defenders at the top of the city who could still crawl fled one after another.
Including the battlements where the previous resistance was the fiercest, no more arrows were fired.
Some who were seriously injured and unable to escape with their own robes simply tore off their inner clothes, and according to a widely circulated statement in the army, tied the white cloth strips to the barrels of their guns and carried them out of the battlements.
When the autumn wind blows, it dances up and down.
Seeing such a strange scene, Lu Li and others, who were in the vanguard, of course could not continue to dig into the walls of Jinan City.
He quickly used suonas and flags to spread the news to the other side of the moat, to the main formation of the Huaihuang Allied Forces.
Zhu Chongjiu, who was organizing his troops and preparing to give the defenders a full blow after the city wall was blown down, could hardly believe his ears when he heard this.
He grabbed the telescope and looked at the city wall for half a minute, and then hurriedly shouted an order, "Wang Xuan, send your cavalry to give chase, be careful not to be fooled.
Yu Tonghai, lead a company of brothers and push Use the siege ladder to cross the river and see if you can climb up to the city and push the gate open from the inside."
"Yes" Wang Xuan, commander of the Yellow Army, and Yu Tonghai, deputy commander of the soldiers, both stepped forward to receive the order.
Before the two of them could turn around to execute the plan, several war horses galloped from the southwest.
The Huai'an army scout on horseback waved the signal flag vigorously and shouted loudly, "Report, there is news from the west of the city.
Xuexue took the lead in escaping, and the west gate was wide open."
"Report, according to the observation of the scouts lurking on the west side of the city, a large number of enemy troops are running for their lives in panic."
As soon as he finished speaking, two more horses galloped over, bringing the latest trends of the enemy troops.
"Report, Ximen.
The enemy troops themselves started fighting on the Ximen Suspension Bridge.
Many people fell into the water."
The third wave of scouts arrived in an instant, and the news they brought became clearer and more accurate.
"Report, North Gate, the North Gate is wide open, a large number of enemy troops have abandoned the city."
"Report, the south gate, the south gate was opened by the defenders themselves.
Many people, many people escaped with Xinruan."
New scouts are returning one after another, bringing more surprises.
"General Manager, General Manager, look at the city gate, the city gate opened by itself."

The biggest surprise followed.
Amid the cheers of the guards, the east gate of Jinan City was pushed open from the inside.
More than a dozen local people with nervous faces knelt on the roadside, and no one dared to take another look at Zhu Chongjiu's flag.
"Fu Youde, lead the cavalry brigade on horseback, pass through Jinan City, and hunt down Xuexue."
Zhu Chongjiu does not need to wait any longer.
The current news is enough to confirm the enemy's movements.
He waved the butcher knife vigorously and gave the order loudly.
"Yes."
Fu Youde, the commander of the independent cavalry brigade, agreed loudly.
He jumped on the war horse captured from Yiwang Mainu, led the newly formed cavalry brigade, and rushed straight to the dark city gate.
"Wu Liangmou, lead the other units of the Fifth Army.
Enter the city to eliminate the remaining enemies."
"Ding Dexing, take a brigade of new soldiers into the city to maintain order."
"Aslan, take the New Second Brigade around to the north gate and look for opportunities to annihilate the enemy."
"Wang Xuan, lead your soldiers and horses to block the south gate.
If ordinary people want to leave, no matter whether they are Mongols or Han, just let them go.
All officials and their families, please leave them to me
.
" ""
After quickly looking at the brothers who had no war horses around him, Zhu Chongjiu continued to issue orders in an orderly manner.
This was not the first time he had captured an enemy city.
Although the victory in front of him came out of nowhere, he was still able to deal with it calmly with the experience he had accumulated in the past.
The soldiers under their command, including the "new recruits" from the two brigades who were captured in the previous battles and left behind by the instigators of Yu Tingyu and his son, are also accustomed to facing victory one after another.
Under the command of officers at all levels, they were divided to perform tasks.
Take over the city defense, kill the "heroes" who take advantage of the fire, extinguish the fire that emerges for no reason, calm the people, and restore normal order in the city By the time all the miscellaneous things were done, the sun had already reached the top of the mountain.
Zhu Chongjiu and Wang Xuan, commander of the Huang Army, were sitting in the splendid Jinan Daruhuachi Mansion, shaking their heads and smiling bitterly at each other.
A big victory.
Today, the two teamed up to win a hearty victory.
Defeat twenty thousand enemies, seize a great city, bring countless gold and silver, and countless weapons, armor, provisions, and baggage.
Calculated based on the total strength currently remaining in Shandong's east and west roads, within three years, I am afraid there will be no need to worry about supply issues.
However, both of them were a little unhappy and didn't know what to choose next.
At this point in the war, the original goal of using troops has been doubled.
Tuotuo was successfully transferred back to the north of the Yellow River.
An important grain-producing area in Mongolia and Yuan Dynasty was completely smashed to pieces.
All the wheat put into the warehouse in the east and west of Shandong this summer became the spoils of war for the Huai'an Army and the Huang Army.
Not a single grain will be shipped to Dadu.
However, the Fifth Army of Huai'an and the Huang Army under Wang Xuan were also at the end of their efforts.
If Xuexue hadn't shown cowardice before retreating before fighting, not even Jinan City would have been Zhu Chongjiu's target of attack at first.
This time, Jinan was defeated in one go and became another trophy for the coalition forces.
Yidu, Banyang and Binzhou were also included.
In addition to Jiaozhou, where the Fifth Army initially landed, and Dengzhou and Laizhou, which were recently swept down by Geng Zaicheng with more than a thousand troops, most of the entire Shandong Peninsula has fallen into the hands of the rebels.
The soldiers and horses in Wang Xuan's hands, including the new recruits he had just recruited, were only over 20,000.
Zhu Chongjiu's direct lineage in Huai'an was even thinner.
When he first boarded the ship, he only brought with him the 3,000-year-old brothers from the Fifth Army who definitely had no night blindness and a battalion from the Guards Regiment.
These days, the standards have been lowered to accept the rebels who came to defect, and efforts have been made to recruit prisoners, but they have only managed to gather tens of thousands more people.

What they were about to face was Tuotuo's army of more than 200,000 men.
If we follow the original plan and abandon all the cities that have been conquered, and take the initiative to go to the sea and return south, we will definitely be able to make it in time.
But that would be too wasteful, and would inevitably have a certain impact on military morale and morale.
And Wang Xuan finally got what he wanted and had a foothold of his own.
It is indeed difficult for him to give up and go back to the days when he was completely dependent on the Huai'an army.
"General, I am willing to reorganize the Huang Army into the Sixth Army of Huai'an, and completely take care of it under the wings of the General Manager.
Please give me your permission."
Looking at the boundless autumn scenery outside the window and thinking for a long time, Wang Xuan suddenly said something.
He said something that had nothing to do with the situation at hand, and the expression on his face was extremely sincere.
"Well, have you really thought carefully about the other brothers under your command?
Are they willing?"
The focus of attention changed so quickly that Zhu Chongjiu couldn't keep up with his thoughts.
He was stunned and asked hesitantly.
He usually adopts a relatively tolerant attitude towards various military leaders who take the initiative to defect to him.
I would rather be the nominal sect leader and give the other party a certain amount of support than force the other party to be completely loyal to me.
For example, Zhang Shicheng and Wang Kerou are currently developing very well in Jiangnan.
Even if he breaks away from the Huai'an army and flies solo, he will definitely be able to be called a prince within three to five years.
"Over the past year or so, the general and his brothers have deeply felt the changes in the army."
Taking a deep breath, Wang Xuan handed over his hand again, "And the general manager also treats the general with all his heart.
Even if the general If you break away from the general manager and set up your own business, you will be nothing more than a local prince in the future, free and easy.
There will be no more than ten years.
Sooner or later, our Huai'an army will swear to the Northern Expedition.
At that time, the general will definitely not allow a country within a country to appear in Shandong Road.
The last general will be afraid that he will have ambitions by then. , bringing all the brothers under my command to a dead end, it is better to make a decision now."
Note 1: Kangli slave.
Brothers Hama and Xuexue are both from Kangli.
At the turn of the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Kangli was originally a herdsman in the Huazimo Kingdom.
Later, they were conquered by Genghis Khan and the whole family became slaves.
As the Meng Yuan Empire continued to grow, it gradually gained its free status.
Considered a separate tribe of Mongolia.
But orthodox Mongolians do not consider Kangli people to be of the same race
