Chapter 684 Mao Wenlong's fury

Li Yi was covered in blood. He looked up and saw that the simple and gray city wall had been stained with bright red.

He lowered his head and looked at the dead bodies everywhere, the unyielding heads, and the frightened eyes with extremely cold eyes.

The Dongjiang Army, which fell into fanaticism, had lost its only sympathy and compassion. Under the guidance of Li Yi, they released their long-suppressed anger in this city. As a result, half of the people in Fuzhou City were killed, and countless women were murdered.

The furious soldiers raped, tortured and killed, and the entire city was filled with desperate wails and beast-like roars.

Li Yi did not stop all this, because what he needed was to gain the support of these soldiers and generals, not to save these people who only hated him.

Zhu Qilong looked at the young master among the corpses in the bloody water. He could see that the simple young man who could cry had transformed into a majestic and ruthless hero.

And this is exactly what everyone at Anxin Railway Brigade and Fuguo Society wants to see.

He suddenly felt sad for Li Yi. Some people could live a kind life, but when they have to bear too many things, they can no longer live the way they want.

Li Yi turned his head and looked at Zhu Qilong, with a hint of inquiry on his stern face, and Zhu Qilong nodded slightly.

After receiving the answer, Li Yi finally showed a trace of relief on his face. He looked at Chen Jisheng and Xu Fuzuo beside him and said loudly: "The beheading is successful. All gold and silver property are piled at the city gate. Soldiers from various islands in the East River are waiting in sequence.

Receive your share of rewards.”

After saying that, he said to Xu Fuzhuo and other generals: "Thank you for your hard work. You can accompany me in danger today. Naturally, I have to pay more. Ten pieces of property for each person. I hope it is not too little."

The general smiled after hearing this. You must know that Fuzhou's property can reach one hundred thousand, and it can be divided into two thousand parts. One part is fifty taels, and ten parts is five hundred taels. It is already a large amount. And even more so for them.

What is exciting is the military achievement of capturing Fuzhou and wiping out the defenders.

Xu Fuzhuo smiled quickly and said: "Your Majesty, it's serious. Even if we don't have any property today, we will come here voluntarily and wait for your orders."

Li Yi nodded and said: "Everyone, please take care of yourselves. Today, Li had the merit of commanding. He killed the generals, captured the city, and wiped out the defenders. Naturally, the generals took great credit. I will write down the military achievements of the battle clearly.

Submitting it to the emperor will definitely make Long Yan very happy and let the emperor know your loyalty to the emperor and the country."

Xu Fuzuo and other generals were overjoyed when they heard this, and they all bowed and said, "Thank you, sir, for your kindness."

Li Yi nodded. He knew that in the future, generals such as Xu Fuzuo would follow his lead.

Phi Island.

After Mao Wenlong learned that Li Yi was wooing generals in an attempt to divide the Dongjiang Army, he was furious.

Since Li Yi returned to Dongjiang Town, his fear of Li Yi has become more and more serious. Not only did he secretly send soldiers to monitor Li Yi's every move, but he also asked Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and others to be on guard at all times. Unexpectedly, even so, he would still fall into the trap.

Li Yi's conspiracy was discovered.

Now Mao Wenlong finally understood that the messenger sent by Li Yi was caught by him. It was entirely directed and acted by Li Yi, taking the opportunity to come up with an excuse to inspect the islands and guard posts. And when he thought that Li Yi was exploring the reality of the Dongjiang River, Li Yi

Yi, however, had no such idea at all. He dared to boldly win over the generals of various islands in an attempt to divide the Dongjiang Army and weaken his control over the Dongjiang Army. This was simply touching his own back.

Mao Wenlong was furious, yelled in the study, and even smashed his cherished furnishings to pieces.

Kong Youde and Mao Chenglu quickly stepped forward to dissuade him and spent a lot of energy to calm Mao Wenlong's anger.

"Kill, I want to kill Li Zizheng." Mao Wenlong slumped on the chair, panting.

Kong Youde said carefully: "Commander, Huang Taiji has not relented, and the conditions have not been agreed upon. If we kill Li Zizheng now, I am afraid we will be attacked from both sides."

"Asshole, you mean I'm afraid..." Mao Wenlong suddenly became furious, picked up the inkstone on the table and threw it at Kong Youde.

Kong Youde did not dare to dodge at all, and his forehead was immediately hit by the inkstone, tearing a hole open. Bright red blood immediately poured on his face, which looked very scary.

Seeing that he had hurt his confidant by mistake, Mao Wenlong calmed down and cursed at Kong Youde: "You son of a bitch, are you looking for trouble for me with your face turned up high?"

Mao Chenglu, who was next to him, found a silk scarf and covered Kong Youde's wound, which stopped the bleeding.

Kong Youde pressed the silk scarf with one hand, slowly knelt down, and said sincerely: "Commander, it's not that my subordinates are disrespectful. It's that my subordinates are worried about Dongjiang and the foundation that the commander has worked so hard to build."

Mao Wenlong snorted coldly and said: "Huang Taiji is the most cunning thief. He must have seen that Yuan Chonghuan and I were at odds with each other, so he sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight, and was preparing to stab him secretly."

Kong Youde nodded and said: "The commander is wise. Huang Taiji is not a mediocre person. If he wants to negotiate a peace alliance with the Kingdom of Jin, he will definitely spend a lot of energy. And Li Yi is a minister personally sent by the emperor. If he is killed in Dongjiang, the emperor will definitely die.

I doubt that Yuan Chonghuan will definitely attack Dongjiang. When the time comes, there will be Huang Taiji in front of us and Ming Dynasty in the back. We, Dongjiang, will be in danger if we are caught in the middle."

Mao Wenlong gritted his teeth and said: "Are we going to let Li Yi win over those generals and divide the Dongjiang Army?"

Kong Youde stood up, shook his head and said: "Of course this is not possible. The Dongjiang Army was founded by the commander-in-chief, and Chen Jisheng and other generals obeyed the commander-in-chief's military orders. If Li Yi is allowed to divide Dongjiang and recruit Chen Jisheng and others, Dongjiang will inevitably fall.

Even if the imperial court takes control, Huang Taiji will not negotiate peace with us. Therefore, the commander-in-chief should immediately go to Fuzhou Guard to seize Li Yi's military power, so that Li Yi, Chen Jisheng and other generals will understand who is the real controller of Dongjiang."

Mao Wenlong said unwillingly: "Is it so easy to let Li Yi go?"

A sinister smile appeared on Kong Youde's face, and he said: "If Fuzhou is captured, Jierhalang will definitely counterattack. When the time comes, the commander-in-chief will command the army and avoid fighting, leaving Li Yi trapped in a tight siege, then Li Yi will die, and the commander-in-chief can also

I can’t get rid of it.”

When Mao Wenlong heard this treacherous plot, a cold smile finally appeared on his face.

When he went to Fuzhou, he wanted Li Yi to die there.

Jierhalang was defeated by Li Yi and led his troops to retreat to Jinzhou City.

Being defeated by the same person one after another and losing all face, Jierhalang hated Li Yi deeply.

This time his rear formation was attacked by surprise, and the unarmored soldiers suffered heavy losses, so they retreated. However, the most elite Qianya La soldiers and the Five Thousand Lines camp soldiers did not suffer much losses, so Jierhalang wanted to revive the morale of the army.

If he chooses the opportunity to fight again, he must kill Li Yi to relieve the hatred in his heart.

But as soon as he started to reorganize his army, he learned that Li Yi led his army to sneak attack Yangguan Fort, deceive the gate of Fuzhou City, and conquer Fuzhou.

Fuzhou was a very important town in the southern part of the Jin Kingdom. Now that it was lost in his own hands, Jierhalang suddenly became furious, his mind was shaken, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

After learning that only 3,000 Ming troops had attacked Fuzhou, Jierhalang did not report the matter to Huang Taiji, and hurriedly led 6,000 Eight Banners soldiers to march north to recapture Fuzhou.

"Send an order for everyone to hurry up and rush to Fuzhou tonight to kill the Ming army that captured the city." Jierhalang, riding on a crippled horse, ordered to the guards around him.

The Yala soldiers who received the order mobilized their horses and ran quickly along the formation to pass on Jilhalang's order.

The Eight Banners soldiers had been defeated before, and now they learned that Fuzhou City had been captured by the Ming army led by ghosts and gods. They were worried. Now they were running around, covered in sweat and in low spirits.

After the Battle of Youtunwei, Li Yi single-handedly killed dozens of Yala soldiers and shot Bakqin to death with one arrow. This made his reputation as a ghost spread among the Houjin troops around Guangning. Later,

He also defeated the Tabai army in Youtun Guard and captured Tabai alive. His reputation suddenly rose. Even Huang Taiji knew that there was a brave and invincible official in the Ming Dynasty. Later, he broke through a thousand-man battle formation, killed Li Yongfang and wounded Jier.

Harang made the name of ghosts and gods spread among the Eight Banners Army. Almost every post-Jin army who participated in these battles used the name of ghosts and gods instead of Li Yi to show their respect.

They had just been defeated by ghosts and gods yesterday, and now they took the initiative to provoke them. The Jin army was frightened by the power of Li Yi alone. They were frightened and even their hands and feet were a little weak.

Now that the messenger ordered them to speed up, the Hou Jin army was indignant, but feared the cruel military law, so they could only drag their heavy bodies to speed up.

Jierhalang kept riding forward with a gloomy face, filled with anger towards Li Yi.

In his opinion, he was defeated yesterday just because Li Yi took advantage of the Ya La soldiers and Xingying soldiers to attack the city. This time, he besieged Fuzhou City head-on. The three thousand Ming army could be wiped out in a blink of an eye.

.

Thinking of this, Jierhalang's gloomy expression showed a cruel smile, as if he had seen the Ming army dying and Li Yi being beheaded by himself.

"Continue to speed up." Jierhalang shouted with red eyes.

The personal guard Ya Labing beside him was slightly stunned, and after a moment of hesitation he said: "Master, you guys fought fiercely all day yesterday, and you are in a hurry today. You are already very tired. If you speed up again, I am afraid there will be resentment."

Jierharang was lost in his imagination. He turned around and glared at the bodyguard, and said angrily: "You slave, if Li Yi escapes back to the sea, I will definitely skin you."

The bodyguard trembled and immediately lowered his head to accept the order. He turned his horse's head and was about to give the order.

The moment he moved, he happened to be blocking Jierhalang's right side. With a "swish" sound, a fine iron arrow shot out from the rock next to him and shot directly through the guard's cheek.

The guard screamed and rolled off his horse. Jierhalang was startled. He looked at the hillsides and rocks on both sides and shouted: "Enemy attack, enemy attack."

The moment he shouted, arrows continued to fly from the mountains and forests. The unsuspecting Hou Jin army was suddenly enveloped in the rain of arrows. The screams were painful and shrill. The already scattered formation was even more chaotic.

The soldiers shouted loudly and asked them to organize their defense.

"Don't panic, the Ming army is smaller in number, charge forward." Jierhalang drew his saber and shouted at the Hou Jin army.

"Whoosh!" There was a sound, and powerful arrows kept flying. The guards who had been prepared immediately raised their shields to deflect the arrows.

The well-trained Yala soldiers were the first to react. They abandoned their horses, raised their shields, and charged towards the hillside.

Just when they were less than sixty steps away from the hiding place of the Ming army, they heard a loud roar, a deafening roar suddenly broke out in the mountains and forests, smoke filled the air, and a dense rain of bullets suddenly poured down, piercing the teeth.

The shields in the soldiers' hands beat their chests to pieces.

"Second team, let go..."

Commander Yongding kept giving firing orders. Yongding, who was armed with Anxin's latest firearms, raised his thunder muskets, aimed at the approaching Yala soldiers and pulled the trigger.

"Bang bang..."

There was another dense roar, and as soon as a Ya La soldier raised his head, a lead bullet pierced his head directly, and he rolled down the hillside with blank eyes.

The Yala soldiers were shrouded in lead bullets fired from the front and suffered heavy losses. However, their fighting will was stronger than that of the camp soldiers and the unarmored soldiers. They did not retreat because they were suppressed by the fire cannons. Instead, they dropped their shields and rushed into the woods roaring.

"Kill them all." The leader was a tall man from Jianzhou with a thick beard and a strong physique.
