Chapter 115 is all chess pieces (2)

At the 27th day of October, the Yanzhou Army vanguard, who marched 400 miles in three days and three nights, appeared under the Song Gate in the southeast corner of Tokyo.

However, what the leading vanguard officer saw in the morning color was not what the information said, "There is no soldiers to defend in Tokyo, and it is calm and impermanent." The entire city wall was covered with fully armed soldiers standing above the wall city, and the two gates of the wall city were closed.

The vanguard officer was unwilling to give up and sent his personal guards to circle the city of Que, Tokyo, and found that all ten gates of Jue City were gated by iron generals, and the top of the city was full of guards, with at least 20,000 troops.

The vanguard was in a cold mood and quickly reported to the Yanzhou Governor Murong Yanchao who had arrived.

Murong Yanchao couldn't believe it at all. He drove the horse to the front of the city to observe and found that the information was not bad at all. He immediately turned around the horse and shouted at the brothers behind him: "I have an insider in the city. The people on the city are all temporary men and not real soldiers at all."

Murong Yanchao waved his hand, and the personal guards pulled the money from the big baskets to the front of the formation and began to distribute it. The soldiers were excited for a while at first, and then many people found that the money was still the money printed by the Yanzhou Governor's Mansion, and their faces immediately changed.

Murong Yanchao is very fond of making money by nature. He had previously found a fake silver from the people. He brought dozens of people in the secret room to create Yanzhou money that was iron-hearted and covered with silver day and night. It was called "iron-tied silver" by the folk. In Yanzhou City, everyone avoided these fake money that could not be bought.

"Guo Quier usurped power and caused trouble to the world, and everyone was killed." Murong Yanchao shone with a black face, and rode his horse in front of the formation, "Heaven blessed Yanzhou, Tian blessed Qilu, we will be on the way for heaven today. I announce that those who attacked the city will be promoted to three levels in a row and will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver; after breaking the city, they will not be sealed for three days."

Such a reward that stirred people immediately aroused the enthusiasm of those recruiting experts, and they shouted wildly to kill the city wall.

Murong Yanchao laughed loudly, his eyes narrowed into a ball, but his laughter didn't last long and it became quiet.

The masters rushed over like a swarm and rushed through the moat on the long ladder. It was quite smooth. However, when they first rushed to the only step in front of the city, they were immediately suppressed by dense arrow formations. Those who could rush through it were Liao Liao. When the Yanzhou Army followed the shield formation and protected them to rush over the steps and rushed to the bottom of the city city, from the arc-shaped wall, from the slanted back, and from the city wall behind, the continuous three-dimensional arrow formation almost covered all the attack locations. The attacking Yanzhou Army could not raise its head at all, let alone climbing the cloud ladder to the city.

Murong Yanchao became fierce and organized a supervision team to force Yanzhou soldiers to attack the city.

At this moment, a general on the right wing arrived and reported that a large number of cavalrymen appeared in the north, all wearing imperial uniforms.

In fact, there is no need to report at all. The continuous movement of the ground, the sound of thunderous horse hooves and shouts of killing, and the dust rising from the sky have attracted more and more Yanzhou soldiers under the city to turn their heads and watch north quickly. The overwhelming black cavalry was rushing towards them in a wedge-shaped shape.

Murong Yanchao was stunned. Where did this come from? Didn’t the last imperial guards in Tokyo cross the Yellow River?

"Run, rush, rush." ​​Guo Wei, who has not rode a horse to fight in nearly two years, was very excited and kept commanding his subordinates to rush forward.

Previously, Guo Wei brought 20,000 imperial guards across the Yellow River. Instead of going north directly, he sneaked around the east, stationed in Weizhou, east of Tokyo City, and blocked the Yellow River Ferry. He secretly sent the imperial guards to lead the Weizhou defenders to conceal the city of Tokyo. On October 25, he received the news that the Yanzhou army, who had left the city, had crossed the Yellow River overnight and sneaked to Chenqiaoyi, north of Tokyo City, waiting for the arrival of the rebels. This morning, when Murong Yanchao's vanguard army rushed to the city, Guo Wei, who received the report from the scout, immediately led the imperial guards to rush across the river and attacked with all his strength.

Murong Yanchao also saw clearly that the enemy was all real and fake, and a thought came to his mind: Guo Wei must be in the army, and as long as he captured and killed Guo Wei now, everything would be easy.

Murong Yanchao immediately began to organize his personal guards and soldiers to organize a team, preparing to take a risk, but the development of the war was completely beyond his expectations. Before the imperial guards could reach the formation, the soldiers on the right wing actually scattered, and many people fell to the ground and surrendered.

A personal guard member pulled Murong Yanchao and shouted: "Sir, stay with the green mountains, don't worry about not burning firewood, go back to Yanzhou."

Murong Yanchao looked at his subordinates who had already begun to collapse as a whole, calmed down immediately, turned around and took the horse and left.

Seeing that the enemy was in chaos, Guo Wei immediately issued a new order: "Only kill the evil thief Murong Yanchao, the rest surrender and will not kill them."

When this order echoed across the battlefield, the majority of Yanzhou soldiers on the field fell to their knees. At this time, it would be too ignorant of the current affairs if they dreamed of supporting the dragon and ascending to heaven.

The entire war basically ended at the beginning. Guo Wei sent Zhang Yongde to lead 10,000 imperial guards to chase Murong Yanchao who was fleeing far away, and led his troops to start cleaning up the battlefield.

In the afternoon of the same day, Wang Jun personally led 10,000 soldiers of the imperial guards and Zezhou and Huaizhou rushed to Tokyo City, hoping to lead the troops east to pursue, but was stopped by Guo Wei. The army was reorganized on the spot, personally walked with Wang Jun, and led the army westward. Now, the main task of the Great Zhou Dynasty has become to solve the Liao and Han coalition forces, and Murong Yanchao was just a tinea scabies.

Murong Yanchao, who fled to the road, found that it was easy to come and go.

When he advanced without any reaction, all the troops from all over Caozhou, Shanzhou and Jeju went out to dig roads, build cards, build passes, and break bridges to block the attack with all their might. Murong Yanchao, who was attacked and fled without hesitation, led his team to attack and escape without hesitation. When he fled to Yanzhou City on the 30th day, the first nearly 10,000 trusted troops were finally left with less than 4,000 people.

However, the situation in Yanzhou made Murong Yanchao feel more and more cold. The 10,000 Tianping Army had successfully captured the north gate of Yanzhou City.

When Murong Yanchao asked, he realized that as soon as the army left Yanzhou, someone raided the northern city from the city. The Tianping Army, which was lurking, occupied the northern gate. Murong Yanfeng had been leading the army to fight, and the two sides had been tug-of-war for several days.

Without waiting for Murong Yanchao to react, bad news came: the enforcer pursuers and garrisons along the way had arrived and headed straight to the north gate, with the city defense falling soon.

Just when Murong Yanchao jumped to the top of the city to command his confidants to spend money and try to stop the enemy from outside the city, bad news came again: Ximen, the guard of the South Gate opened the city and surrendered. The head of the subordinate who sent the money and a handwritten letter from the guard of Ximen: "Save your iron silver and bury yourself."

Murong Yanchao was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot. He sighed to the sky: "I regret not following Lin Feng's advice, I have to accompany me to such a situation." At the beginning, Lin Feng suggested that he put his family and future in Shouzhou and the Southern Tang Dynasty, but Murong Yanchao did not believe in Lin Feng very much, and then he caught up with Shouzhou and was surrounded by the army first, and his family stayed in Yanzhou without moving.

On the evening of October 30th, Murong Yanchao, who was desperate, handed over the last 500 confidants to his son Murong Jixun to surround him; Murong Yanchao led his wife's tribe members to defend the governor's mansion, and after being surrounded and the wall of the mansion was broken, he jumped into a well with his wife and died. However, when Murong Jixun led his troops to break through, he was captured by the Yanzhou garrison in the east city, becoming a large stepping stone for others to rebel against the water and receive the merits.

In the early morning of November 1st, Zhang Yongde, who led his personal guards into the city, slaughtered all the Murong Yanchao tribe members at the order. On behalf of the emperor, Gao Xingzhou, who successfully captured Yanzhou City in advance, Gao Huaide and his son reorganized the remaining soldiers in the city and quickly restored order.

At this point, because Murong Yanchao was hit by Guo Wei's plan and attacked rashly, the Yanzhou rebellion was like a flash in the pan, and it was wiped out within ten days. It was not the Yanzhou rebellion that had been persisted in nearly four months in history. The performance of a major drama that planned to quell the rebellion was officially over.

According to the original historical records, Murong Yanchao recruited Ding Zhuang in private, gathered food and food, secretly formed the Northern Han Dynasty, and secretly connected to the Southern Tang Dynasty. In the first month of the second year of Guangshun (952 AD), Guo Wei raised an army to rebel in Yanzhou. After hearing the news, he used several tricks: first order the separation of Yi, the relationship between the two prefectures of the two prefectures of Linyi, Shandong, and Zhucheng, to weaken Murong Yanchao's military power; then Cao Ying, the commander of the guard infantry, was deployed as the commander of Yanzhou, Shi Yanchao, the commander of Qizhou, was the deputy deployment, Xiang Xun was the chief supervisor, and Yao Yuanfu led his army to attack the horse and buses of the army; at the same time, he ordered Xuzhou inspector Zhang Lingbin to block the reinforcements of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
