Chapter 190: Broken City

"What, the Prime Minister's reinforcements are coming?" In the big tent, Li Hui stood up immediately after hearing the report: "Who is leading the troops?"

"It's General Guan Xingguan and Governor Yang Qingyang, and according to Feng Sima, who is in the vanguard, the reinforcements are about two days away," the colonel continued.

"Okay, it's better to come sooner than later. With the help of reinforcements, great things can be accomplished." Li Hui said excitedly.

"Come here, now go back and tell Feng Sima that he wants him..." Li Hui ordered in a low voice.

In the early morning three days later, Li Hui gave the troops a good meal, then gathered his troops to suddenly launch a fierce attack on the rebels' northern camp.

In the past few days, Li Hui used various means to make false promises with the rebels in the city. Although the rebels did not completely believe him, Yongjie and the others still believed him eighty-nine points after being confused. Therefore, the rebels surrounding Li Hui also

Take it easy.

Especially the rebels in the north were the most lax. Today, Li Hui looked at the right time and led his troops to launch a sudden attack, catching the rebels by surprise.

In the early morning, when people are most tired, the rebels were suddenly attacked and they didn't understand what happened for a while.

"Didn't you say that the officers and soldiers were about to surrender? How could they suddenly launch an attack?" shouted the guard general of the rebel North Camp with incomplete armor.

"General, the matter has become clear. I have fallen into the trap of Li Hui's fellow. This fellow is pretending to surrender." The deputy general replied loudly. He was a sensible person.

The guard general said angrily: "Send orders to my men to hold on, and go to the city to report to General Yong so that he can send reinforcements."

The defender's response was relatively timely, but Li Hui's army tried its best to kill and what came was unstoppable. Soon the Beiying defense line was breached, and the officers and soldiers rushed into the rebel camp like tigers descending the mountain and massacred.

Just as the guard was panicking and not knowing what to do, a roaring sound of horse hooves came from behind the stronghold.

"General, there is a large group of officers and cavalry coming from behind the stronghold." A guard reported anxiously.

"It's bitter." The guard patted his leg and said with a wry smile: "We can't hold on any longer. You all should run for your lives." After saying that, he ignored the army and led his guards towards Kunze City.

"Kill!" Feng Chong took the lead, leading the cavalry to charge back and forth, and soon the rebels, who were already in chaos, were reduced to pieces.

Behind the cavalry was the main force of Yang Qingguanxing's infantry. They then attacked and made the rebels even more frightened. Under attack from both sides, the Beiying rebels were defeated before they could even block a stick of incense.

"Qing met Li Shijun."

"Xing met Li Shijun."

When Yang Qing and Guan Xing saw Li Hui coming on horseback, they hurried forward to greet him.

"General Guan, Mr. Yang is polite." Li Hui bowed and returned the courtesy.

The ranks of the three of them were approximately the same, but Li Hui, the governor of the surrender, and the governor of Jiaozhou, had a slightly higher official position. Therefore, Yang Qing and Guan Xing greeted each other first. Of course, Li Hui did not show off, and almost treated each other with equal courtesy.

"Thanks to the help of two generals today, we were able to successfully defeat the rebels." Li Hui pointed at the fleeing rebels in the distance and smiled.

Yang Qingdao: "This is also a good idea of ​​making Junmiao, we just happened to meet him at the right time."

"Exactly, without us, I can break out of the siege just by relying on the military strength of the commander." Guan Xing is also a person with a delicate heart, and he said humbly.

Li Hui smiled and said: "You two don't have to be too modest. Without reinforcements, how could the rebels be so defeated?"

This is indeed true. Without the help of Yang Qing and others, Li Hui and others can break through, but it may not be easy to defeat all the rebels in one fell swoop.

"Haha, let's not give in to each other here. Now that the war is not over, we should first wipe out the enemy in front of us."

"Ming Zhi's words make sense. I'll wait for you to take over when the war is over." Li Hui nodded in agreement.

After the three people exchanged greetings, they merged the two groups of officers and soldiers together, and then drove the broken troops to kill the enemy strongholds in other directions. The number of officers and soldiers increased, their morale was like a rainbow, and they were unstoppable. The rebels were killed without any resistance.

He had no choice but to run around.

Yong Jie and others in the city were already as anxious as ants on a hot pot and didn't know what to do. When things got to this point, they still didn't understand that they had fallen into Li Hui's trick.

It's just that the current situation is such that they can no longer sit back and regret and complain. The leaders of the three families came together to the top of the city and issued several military orders. However, even if they racked their brains to deploy troops and generals, it was no longer possible.

It’s no use.

Today, not only did the army suddenly launch an attack, catching them off guard, but the court's reinforcements quietly lurked near Kunze and engaged Li Hui's men in a pincer attack from both inside and outside. It was really difficult to deal with.

The officers and soldiers under the city have driven the defeated troops and have broken through several camps. Even if there are one or two leaders in the rebel army who want to lead the sergeants to form a counterattack, Yang Qing and Guan Xing are both elite troops under their command, so there is no way for them to counterattack.

Chance?

Most of the rebels who stayed in Kunze were old, weak, sick and disabled, and their combat power was very weak. Yong Jie and others were not famous generals who could turn the tide. Under the command of Yang Qing, Guan Xing and Li Hui, the rebels were already littered with corpses and blood.

It has become a river.

What's more, Feng Chong's cavalry galloped across the rebel formations, and defeat was only a matter of time.

Seeing that most of the soldiers under the city were running around and unable to resist, Yong Jie and others knew that Kunze City could no longer be defended.

"Everyone, we have been defeated. We cannot stay in this place." Yongjie looked up to the sky and sighed.

The head of the Cuan family, whose face was as black as a pig's liver, asked feebly: "In your opinion, what should I do?" He was hurt by Li Hui's fake surrender, and he was at a loss for words at this moment.

"Abandon the city." Yongjie clenched his fists and said.

The head of the Huo family, who had been listening, asked, "Where should we go after we abandon the city?"

Yongjie had already made a plan in his mind and replied: "We can't stay in Yizhou any longer. Let's go to Xianggao County to join Zhu Bao."

"Zhu Bao?" The head of the Cuan family said: "I heard that the situation there is not very good. That Ma Zhong is also a powerful figure. He has already conquered Qielan City. Now Zhu Bao has led the remaining soldiers to escape to the south."

"Yes, Zhu Bao is already in trouble, so if we still go to him, wouldn't it be a useless effort?" the head of the Huo family objected.

Yongjie snorted and sneered: "To the west is Zhuge Liang's army, to the north is Li Hui's army, and to the south is a barren land. Where can we go if we don't flee to the east? Besides, Zhu Bao still has soldiers and horses, and we will fight with him."

If he joins forces, he may not be able to fight. And even if we fail to surrender to him, we can continue heading east to Jingzhou to defect to Soochow."

"This..." The head of the Cuan family and the head of the Huo family looked at each other and felt that Yongjie was right. Now it seems that there is only a glimmer of hope to the east.

"Okay, let's do it like this." The head of the Cuan family nodded.

Yong Jie looked at the head of the Huo family again, and saw that he nodded in agreement, and said: "Since everyone agrees, it is not necessary to delay. Let us gather the soldiers quickly to break out. If it is later, I am afraid we will not be able to get out of the city.

."

Everyone agreed, quickly gathered their private soldiers, opened the city gate and ran to the east. At this moment, the war outside the city had already been controlled by the government and army, but the rebels were so numerous after all that they could not be completely defeated for a while.

The sudden rush of thousands of people into the city was extremely eye-catching. When Li Hui, Yang Qing and others saw this, they immediately understood that the rebels in the city wanted to abandon the city and flee. The officers and soldiers worked hard to devise strategies to defeat the enemy, so naturally they wanted to gain full success.

, quickly dispatched troops to intercept Yongjie and others.

The dim sunlight shines on the mottled city wall, making it look a bit blurry. The twilight is like a big net gradually covering the entire land.

After a fierce battle for most of the day, the rebels were finally completely defeated, but the battlefield had to be cleaned and the soldiers had to wait if they wanted to rest.

On the top of the city, Yang Qing and Li Hui walked side by side and chatted casually. From time to time, they heard hearty laughter, which greatly affected the guards behind them. The joy of victory always washed away the sadness of Paoze's sacrifice.

"I wonder how General Guan and the others are doing now?" Li Hui stopped and asked.

Yang Qing also stopped and looked at the red clouds in the sky and replied: "Don't worry, sir. The rebels have become lost dogs, so there is nothing to worry about. Besides, An Guo is very clever, and he can easily capture Yong Jie and others."
