Chapter 353: sword cut false emperor

  Chapter 353 Sword Slaying the False Emperor

   "Surrender General Li Zhengbao pays homage to Duke Yi!"

  The first one to come to his senses was Li Zhengbao. He didn't care about his face. In three or two steps, he stepped forward, knelt down on one knee, and said goodbye.

  Qin Lang also hurried forward to help him up.

  This Li Zhengbao is as burly as a bear, with a full beard like a fierce Zhang Fei, but he can lower his posture so much, which makes him very fond of it, and he is also a smart person.

   "I had written a few letters with General Li before. Seeing that the general's handwriting is good and his literary talent is also good, I always thought that the general was a Confucian general in white clothes. Unexpectedly, he is so mighty! Majestic!"

   "The end general has read a few sage books before, but his level is average, and he never dares to dance in front of poets."

  Duan Decao and Li Zihe, these two generals, accepted the shock at this time, and came up to salute one after another.

  Duan is the governor of Yanzhou and General Zuo Wuwei, while Li is the surname bestowed by the emperor and General You Wuwei.

  One of the two was born as a famous general, and the other was also born as a local tyrant. It is inevitable that they are a bit self-confident.

  Qin Lang showed respect for the two seniors, and did not use officials to oppress others.

   "Duke Yi, please enter the city first!"

"Together!"

  On the way into the city, four riders rode side by side. Duan Decao was quite surprised why Qin Lang could appear at this time.

"Actually, I came here in a hurry. I figured Duan Duan and General Li should have arrived at the city of Yinzhou today, so I hurried to arrive today. I thought I could show my strength, but who I expected that General Li would be so brave that he would deal with the thief in two or three strokes, I got up early but stayed late."

   Enter the city.

  Qin Lang was invited to take the upper seat.

  Yinzhou was recovered, and Li Zhengbao led a group of surrendered generals to offer their household registration lists, government treasury money and food account books, sergeant rosters, etc.

  Qin Lang glanced at it casually, and found that although Yinzhou City has five counties, it is located on the Loess Plateau, with thousands of ravines, extremely barren, and years of wars, this place has already reached the brink of collapse.

  The population is less than 10,000 households, and the treasury is empty.

  Even if Qin Lang doesn't come to attack, they won't last long.

  As for the soldiers, they all used the treasury equipment of the Sui Dynasty.

  Many generals' armors were torn, and they could only be repaired casually.

  Yinzhou is actually similar to Shengzhou, with the Yellow River to the west and the Gobi to the east, and there are some relatively good cultivated land along the Wuding River.

   But its strategic location is important and prominent.

  Northern Shaanxi plateau, loess high slope, poor, but it can be connected to Shuofang, Hetao and Hedong.

   Poor is poor, but it is a strategic highland.

  Yinzhou finally returned to Tang Dynasty, and Li Zhengbao and others actually breathed a sigh of relief.

  If this battle continues, people will eat people.

   And the number of miscellaneous beards in Yinzhou accounted for more than half of the population. They are also tired of the current situation.

   Close the books again.

  Qin Lang first appeased Li Zhengbao and other surrendered generals, and announced that all Yinzhou soldiers would be released back home, and each of them would be given a severance pay and a ration to go home.

  Of course, if you are willing to continue to stay as a soldier to eat food, you must be assessed according to the selection criteria of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. Those who pass can stay first, but there will also be a reward of money and food first.

  As for the original officials and generals in Yinzhou, all of them temporarily retained their grades for use.

   "This time, the subordinates of the two generals, Duan and Li, are also credited, and they will all be rewarded for their merits!"

  In the morning Li Zhengbao sent people to kill cattle and sheep, which turned out to be a feast for Qin Lang to reward the soldiers of Yanzhou and appease the descendants of Yinzhou.

   Just in time to see a lively Qin Lang's subordinates, and also got credit for it, everyone is very happy.

   "Duke Yi, the treasury of Yinzhou is empty, and now tens of thousands of soldiers are crowding here, and the cost is not small." Duan Decao reminded Qin Lang.

   "Don't worry, I brought a lot of fried noodles with meat floss this time. This thing is easy to carry but can keep you hungry. What I brought can last us a month. One month is enough to solve Liang Shidu."

  Duan Decao was dubious.

   After capturing Yinzhou City, Qin Lang did not order to take advantage of the victory to cross the Great Wall and attack Shuofang Liangshidu, but stopped in Yinzhou City.

  One day, two days, three days.

  After more than ten days passed, Duan Decao didn't know what Qin Lang was planning.

  Until the scouts brought news that Liang Shidu led more than 30,000 troops across the Great Wall and was about to fight to Yinzhou.

   "Unexpectedly, Master Liang really came." Qin Lang was not surprised when he heard the news.

   "Thirty thousand people, it seems that Master Liang has come here with all his strength." Duan Decao reminded.

  Qin Lang unfolded the map.

   "It's about two hundred miles from Shuofang City in Xiazhou to Rulin in Yinzhou. It's not easy to come here in the snow and ice."

Master Liang is no better than Qin Lang and the others. They have the entire Tang Dynasty as their backing to support logistics and food. For example, Qin Lang came from the East Surrendered City. Although they traveled farther than Master Liang, their logistics equipment is very good. Stir-fried noodles with meat floss, horses have fine grains, no special logistics folks are needed, and they can travel lightly.

  And Duan Decao came from Yanzhou, and he also marched lightly, so there was no need to transfer food and grass.

  Master Liang will die.

His soldiers are not good, so if he wants to seize Yinzhou, he can only come with all his strength, and bring all the old and young to make up his strength. Thirty thousand people are dispatched. The number has increased a lot of confidence, but so many people have also brought logistics. With the pressure on food and grass, they don't have the easy-to-carry fried noodles with meat floss like Qin Lang.

  So the Liang division used half of the grain and half of the livestock to feed the army. In order to supply the 30,000 people, they also enlisted many civilians to transport grain and drive livestock.

   It took me two hundred miles and half a month to get there, but many soldiers, peasants, and cattle and sheep had froze to death on the road.

  Half of the food and grass prepared were also eaten on the way.

  This battle has not yet started, but Master Liang has already lost.

  The Liang divisions were attacking all over the country, but Qin Lang stood still and didn't think he was afraid at all.

   "Duke Yi, do you want to send troops to attack him while he is tired from the distance?"

  Duan Decao couldn't hold back any longer. According to information, although the current Liang divisions had come, they were indeed a tired division with low morale and no fighting spirit.

  But Qin Lang smiled and said, "No need, just sit back and watch the defeat."

That night.

  Thirty thousand soldiers and horses of the Liang division surrounded Yinzhou City, and torches were lit on all sides, which was very spectacular.

   There are 20,000 peasants setting up a heavy camp in the rear, and there are not many grains and grass piled up in the camp, as well as emaciated cattle and sheep.

  The north wind howled and the snow fell.

  In the city of Yinzhou, Tang Jun sheltered from the wind and warmed himself by the fire, but outside the city, Liang Jun could only tighten his robes, shut his mouth and drink less north wind.

  The large account of the Chinese army.

  Master Liang was roasting by the fire and drinking wine, frowning.

  The big tent was opened.

   Liang Luoren, the nephew of Liang Shidu, brought in Liang Jun generals Xin Liaoer, Feng Duan and others.

   "All the soldiers and horses of the battalions set up their camps, be careful, and beware of Duan's night attack!" Master Liang poured a cup of hot wine for them.

  Liang Luoren took the wine glass and drank it down.

   "Jeli Khan will not send troops!"

  Master Liang looked up at his nephew, feeling the disrespect in his tone.

   "Didn't you tell me earlier that after contacting Jieli, he also sent troops to the south?"

   "I lied to you, I didn't contact Xieli, I contacted Qin Lang!"

"you!"

   Liang Shidu slapped the table with a slap.

   "That's right, I betrayed you, but I did it to protect my Liang family. My family of governors of the Liang family in Shuofang has been the governor of the sixth successive generations, so we cannot be wiped out because of you."

   "I treat you well!" Master Liang shouted.

   "It was our family who treated you well. Your father died early, and it was my grandfather who adopted you orphans and widows."

"Fart, what adoption, back then, your grandfather just saw my father died early and left a large fortune, so he coveted my family's wealth and came to eat my family's ruined family. In the name of adoption, he actually took over my family's wealth." Liang The teachers retorted coldly.

  Liang Luoren didn't argue with him about this.

It's normal for Liang Shidu's father to earn tens of thousands of family wealth. He relied on the support of the family. Without the support of the family in the court, how could Liang's father save so much money in business? His father died early, and the family certainly did not It is possible to hand over this huge family business to the young Liang Shidu, let alone his young widowed mother.

   "What's the use of saying this now?" Liang Luoren's father, Liang Xuande, was the governor of Jingzhou in the Sui Dynasty.

  But now that Master Liang is defeated, the Liang family hopes that Master Liang will admit defeat and surrender to the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible, so that the Liang family can at least be preserved.

   Doing this will drag the entire Liang family into the Nine Nether Hell.

   "Xieli is too busy to take care of himself now, and it is impossible to send troops to help. I advise you to take the initiative to surrender to Tang if you are aware of current affairs. This will not lose a good ending."

   "Impossible, come on!"

"You don't need to shout. Why do you think I lied to you that Jieli sent troops to the south? Why did I persuade you to send all your troops to attack Yinzhou? It's just for today's convenience. Let me tell you, at this moment, the Chinese army has exhausted all its troops. Master it for me, the guards outside are all members of my Liang clan!"

  Liang Clan members!

   These should be the most trustworthy people Liang Shidu, but now they all stand opposite him.

   "Please hand over the soldier seal and surrender!" Liang Luoren stepped forward.

   Several Liang Jun generals behind him also stepped forward with their swords in their hands.

  Master Liang turned around and drew out his sword, "Don't even think about it!"

  Liang Luoren gritted his teeth, "Then don't blame me for being unkind!"

"die!"

  Master Liang yelled at the guards and slashed wildly with his sword, trying to get out of the tent.

  When Liang Luoren saw this, he unceremoniously called Feng Duan and the others to draw their swords and besiege.

  Feng Duan pierced Liang Shidu's calf with a sword.

  Over there, Xin Liaoer took the opportunity to smash Liang Shidu's shoulder blades.

   Liang Shidu's sword was blown away and he fell to the ground.

  Liang Luoren held his sword and walked in front of Liang Shidu whose hands and feet were pinned down.

   "Duke Yi asked me to say hello on his behalf!"

   After speaking, Liang Shidu's head was chopped off with a sword.

  After beheading Liang Shidu, Liang Luoren sent his own soldiers to send the generals of the battalions to come over to discuss matters. When the generals came in, they found that the head of Liang Shidu was already there.

  Everyone was horrified.

   "Master Liang resists the might of God. I am ordered by Lord Yi to kill the traitors of this country. You don't need to panic. You only punish the traitors of Liang, and don't care about the rest. You follow me to join the Tang Dynasty, and you have meritorious deeds!"

   "Follow me to Yinzhou City to meet Duke Yi!"

  After looking at each other in blank dismay, all the generals finally knelt down to Liang Luoren.

   "By the order of the general!"

  There were no riots in Liang Jun's camp from beginning to end.

  Dawn.

  Liang Luoren led the generals to carry the head of Liang Shidu to the city of Yinzhou, knelt down on the ground, and asked for surrender.

   "Please sue Yi Guogong, the guilty general Liang Luoren has cut off the head of the Liang thief and led his troops to vote as agreed, please Yi Guogong accept it!"
