Chapter 54 People always don’t cry when they don’t see the coffin

"How is this possible?" Master Liang really couldn't believe it. With the strength of Tongwan City, how could Chen Ying enter Tongwan City silently? Master Liang asked angrily: "What's going on?"

"Jihu and Liu Nu hid their generals under their command, He Yuepan, the guardian of the South Gate Feng Duan, the champion general Li Zhengbao and others all surrendered without fighting!"

In fact, it is not just about surrendering without fighting.

He also acted as a leader and led the Tang army soldiers into Tongwancheng.

At this time, Master Liang stood on the terrace of the palace and looked outside.

I saw a large number of Liang soldiers walking in front of the Tang army soldiers. They each had two big meat buns, or used helmets as rice bowls, filled with rice and soup cakes, and ate them while leading the way.

There was no need to fight at all. When they met Liang soldiers, Tang soldiers directly carried a large bamboo basket on their guns and spears, containing big meat buns or steamed buns. When Liang soldiers looked at the big meat buns, they put down their weapons at the same time and reached out to grab the steamed buns. In front of the Tang soldiers, these Liang soldiers fought for each other, which was very lively.

After snatching the big meat buns, these Liang soldiers acted as leaders without shyness.

The soldiers of the Tang army made the way with big meat buns and white flour steamed buns. Wherever they went, the Liang army soldiers along the way were all determined to pass the blame. The efficiency was so high that it was shocking.

Chen Ying's move is called a red heart, two kinds of preparations. If you can't lie down on the Liang army by relying on food, the soldiers of the Tang army will take a strong attack. Although Chen Ying wanted to recruit Liang army, he did not want to continue bleeding. After all, there were too many people who died at the end of the Sui Dynasty and early Tang Dynasty. If you can die less, try to die as little as possible. After all, the head is not leeks, and it cannot grow after being cut off. Although he wanted to recruit him, Chen Ying would not tolerate the stubborn.

He had to decide what kind of condition to recruit him, and Mr. Liang had no capital to bargain with him!

The Liang army had no time to arrange defense at all. The Tang army soldiers and the Liang army soldiers who turned against each other, successfully arrived at the Tongwancheng Imperial Palace.

The imperial palace of Tongwancheng accounts for almost a quarter of Tongwancheng. Like the Chang'an Palace, it has complete city defense functions.

When the Tang army entered the city, the Liang army received the news. When the Tang army soldiers surrounded the Tongwancheng Palace, it took only two quarters of an hour to trot the Tang army soldiers almost trotted all the way.

The Liang army soldiers and Liang Shi, who were standing in the palace, were surprised to find that at this time, hundreds of catapult locomotives appeared in the Tang army formation.

In this era, the catapults, like the bed crossbow, all have no wheels, and when they move, they are carried by people. However, Chen Ying was transplanted to a four-wheeled carriage, especially the eight-ox crossbow carriage. If the string is completed, it can be fired even during the progress.

Of course, there is no guarantee of accuracy.

In addition to more than 100 catapult motorcycles, there are also hundreds of eight-ox crossbow trucks... Master Liang can understand these vehicles. After all, Chen Ying will definitely be prepared for a strong attack, but the dozens of door-sticking knives that appeared outside the palace city made Master Liang difficult to accept.

These door-stop knives were built by Liang Shi himself to prevent the Tang army from breaking through the city gates, so that the Tang army could be stopped in the city. However, the surrendered Liang soldiers immediately pushed the door-stop knives and blocked all nine palace gates of the palace city.

The soldiers of the Tang army Dingyuan army were uniformly paced, pushing forward like a huge machine. Their silence was heart-wrenching, and their neat and powerful steps seemed to carry some kind of hypnotic magic. Even if there was a sea of ​​swords and fires in front of them, as long as Chen Ying did not stop, they would walk over as dark as they are now until they were swallowed.

Such an army is the most terrifying, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Liang Shidu’s forehead.

Master Liang was so angry that he saw it that he murmured: "What a strong soldier... how did they practice it?"

Liu Sheng's face turned pale, and Qiqi Ai Ai Ren said, "Fortunately, we haven't met them before, otherwise the bones could beat the drum!"

Mr. Liang said with a gloomy face: "Didn't Mr. Liu Rengui say that they plan to comfort us? Why did they dispatch troops to attack us? They didn't keep their word!"

As he was speaking, the Tang army soldiers had already stopped about fifty steps away from Dazhai, clearly showing that even bullying Liang Shidu had no crossbow. In fact, there were many crossbows in Liang Shidu, all of which were placed on the outer wall of Tongwan City. At this time, the Tang army soldiers were busy dismantling the crossbows. After a simple modification, they immediately converted the vacant baggage into a four-wheeled crossbow.

The Tang army infantry separated from each other, Liu Rengui walked over on a horse, bowed to Liang Shidu on the wall in front of the gate, and said, "Lord Liang, we are meeting again!"

Mr. Liang shouted in shock and angrily: "What do you mean by someone surnamed Liu? Didn't you mean to recruit us? Why should we dispatch a large army to attack us when we are unprepared? Don't you think you are bullying too much?"

A young general wearing black armor came over on a horse and said loudly: "This is my idea."

Liu Sheng asked, "Who are you?"

Liu Rengui explained: "My surname is Chen and his name is Ying, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, the three corpses of Kaifu Yitong Sansi, the Duke of Liang, and the General of the Cavalry."

Master Liang had already thought that Chen Ying had come out. After all, he was chased by Chen Ying like a rabbit and had no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground. He couldn't even know Chen Ying. Master Liang pointed at the army that was so dark that he was so nervous that he looked at him and asked in a cold voice: "General Chen, is this how you recruit me?"

Chen Ying nodded and said seriously: "That's right!"

He looked around everyone proudly and said, "This general asked you to surrender unconditionally on the condition of ensuring your life safety and the future of your children, but you refused. I have to say that this is not a smart approach."

Liu Sheng shouted: "Don't let your mother's fart! I led tens of thousands of brothers across the northwest, eating delicious food and drinking spicy food. How free it was that day! But if you accept your counsel, you will have nothing. What is this? Why not continue to rebel!"

Chen Ying curled his lips and said lightly: "The mouth is so smelly..."

Just then, a loud noise rang out.

Chen Ying didn't have to look back at all, and only saw a few operators of the Eight Niu Crossbows who had already aimed at the city gate to stimulate the Eight Niu Crossbows on the city gate.

With the harsh sound of breaking through the air, it sounded.

Twelve six-foot-long crossbow guns flew towards the city gate tower like a wall.

At this time, the distance between the two sides was only more than fifty steps, and the Eight Niu Crossbow was extremely fast. In a blink of an eye, flying to the city gate tower, with twelve crossbow guns, three of which accurately hit Liu Sheng.

The crescent-shaped arrow directly cut off Liu Sheng's left and right arms and killed him on the city wall, and there was no rest in an instant.

A Liang army general wanted to say: "If you really want to recruit us, just give us an official like the general manager!"

However, seeing Chen Ying disagree, he ordered the Baniu Crossbow to shoot, and he forced his heart to hold back his words.

Chen Ying smiled playfully and said, "This general requires you to surrender unconditionally, and you must surrender unconditionally. As for how to resettle after surrender, this general will only count if he says it. You are not qualified to bargain with me!"

Master Liang said angrily: "That's all you can do is to strode it. Just start fighting. Who is afraid of whom?"

Liu Rengui hurriedly said, "Everyone... don't be impulsive... You can't win, don't struggle..."

Chen Yingyang stopped Liu Rengui and continued to speak. He choked and pulled out the horizontal knife from his waist and threw it into the ground. The sharp high-manganese steel horizontal knife was nailed into the ground, swaying left and right, and a pool of cold light like autumn water shone dazzlingly.

Chen Ying pointed to the horizontal knife and said, "I will give you one last chance. It is still time to change your mind before the horizontal knife stops swinging."

The response to him was the loud trumpet. Several leaders who were so angry that they were already joking the trumpet and recruiting their own elites.

Liu Rengui whispered to Chen Ying: "Does this have to be done?"

Chen Ying said helplessly: "Shidu Liang is either a bandit or a bandit for many years. He is either a leader of the Hu tribe. He has done too much to kill and set fire to the prefecture and the wild nature is hard to tame. If he doesn't give them a warning and eliminate their anger, even if they accept the urge, they will not be honest. In the end, there will be endless troubles."

Liu Rengui also understood this truth, but he knew very well how terrifying the combat power of Chen Ying's subordinates was. Once the fight started, it would definitely be bloody. Thinking of those hungry Liang Jun, he really couldn't bear it.

But what can I do if I can’t bear it? I don’t want to beat Liang Jun first. Once they suddenly make trouble after being placed in the place, there will be more people who die!

The swing of the horizontal sword became smaller and smaller, while the number of Liang troops gathered more and more. When the palace gate opened, the elite troops of Liang army came out in a mighty manner with sword shields and shields. Without waiting for the horizontal sword to stop, their actions had already given the answer.

Chen Ying sighed: "You won't cry until you see the coffin!"

He patted Liu Rengui and signaled him to follow. The two rode their horses back to the middle of the army. At this time, the Liang army's surrendered troops who led the Tang army's new army also showed signs of unstableness. After all, after so many years of life licking blood from the knife, he had a different mind as soon as he had eaten his stomach... This army had only six or seven thousand people at most, but they had tens of thousands of people. It was not difficult to eat them...

At this moment, more than a hundred catapult locomotives began to speak first.

"Boom boom boom..."

Large pottery jars were flying from the air and smashed towards the Liang soldiers.

These elite Liang army soldiers were in chaos, but they calmed down and found that these stone catapults were actually embroidered pillows, which were not useful.

After all, the main lethality of the catapult relies on the kinetic energy of the stone bomb. As long as the jumper is formed, the stone bomb will set off a flesh-and-blood alley in the enemy formation.

However, these pottery jars fell to the ground and lost their kinetic energy instantly. Although the fragments also killed many elite Liang soldiers, these were only a few after all.

A strong smell of tinea oil came from the air, and Master Liang's face changed drastically.

Almost at the same time, meteor fire rains emerged from the Tang army formation.

That's right, the trench tank launched by the trench oil tank, and it was trench oil refined by Chen Yingdi's earth method. This trench oil immediately formed a sea of ​​fire when encountering a rocket.

A sea of ​​fire was formed within the thirty steps in front of the palace gate and fifty steps on the city wall.

The Liang soldiers in the sea of ​​fire screamed shrillly, struggled, and let out a creepy howl.

At this time, all the Liang army soldiers, including the Liang army, were frightened and stood still and dared not move.

The Liang army soldiers hesitated and were stunned, but the Tang army soldiers were absolutely not idle.

The catapult troops continued to fire tinned oil tanks, and the crossbowmen fired rockets.

As the trench oil tank of the catapult moved backwards, as the sea of ​​fire continued to grow, more and more Liang soldiers were swallowed up by the sea of ​​fire.

Mr. Liang's lips were trembling slightly, but his tone was still very hard, and he shouted: "Run out and fight with them!"

However, no one around Liang soldiers dared to move.

Those Liang army surrendered soldiers who were originally thinking about being fluent are now as docile as kittens.

The Tang army had no intention of fighting with Liang soldiers at all. They were only concerned about using bed crossbows to fire crossbows at the palace city. This crossbow gun flew towards the palace wall like a flying wall.

The soldiers above were like cut wheat, and were put down on the ground in rows.

A crossbow gun is not like a crossbow arrow. It is extremely powerful. If a human body is shot by a crossbow arrow, it can leave a whole body. However, a crossbow gun is different. A half-crescent-shaped flat arrowhead hits the arm, and the arm is cut off directly, and the waist is hit, and it is cut off directly.

Countless Liang soldiers were shot by the Eight Niu Crossbow and shot into a pile of minced meat.

As for the catapult, it is even simpler. A turbulent oil tank weighing 50 kilograms will be enough to form a sea of ​​fire of more than 100 square meters. The key is that it is too late to run.

This is not a battle at all, but a one-sided massacre.

At this moment, the surrendered Liang soldiers knelt neatly in front of Chen Ying's war horse, howled and cried: "General, stop beating, let's go and persuade us to surrender!"

China is a society with human feelings as a bond. Most of the Liang soldiers have some relationships, or relatives and friends. Seeing their meaningless death, they will definitely not be indifferent.

Chen Ying did not stop, but waved his hand.

Thousands of Tang soldiers behind him shouted neatly: "Surrender unconditionally, otherwise there will be no chicken or dog left!"

Liang Shidu and others were passing through the sea of ​​fire, listening to the roar like thunder, and immediately responded: "Don't fight, we surrender, we surrender..."

Hearing the mountain begging for mercy from the opposite side, Chen Ying ordered to stop.

There were corpses everywhere in the palace of Tongwancheng. Of course, these corpses were all the corpses of Liang soldiers, shot to death by crossbow guns, killed by catapults, burned by turret tanks, and were everywhere. The twisted corpses and wounded soldiers lying in pools of blood all made the bandits look like earth and fight.

Most of the people who died were the elites of Liang Shidu when they started their careers. So many of them died, but the casualties caused to the Tang army soldiers were pitifully small!

If it weren't for the operational error, a soldier broke the turbulent tank, forming a sea of ​​fire, and burning down two catapult locomotives, I'm afraid the casualties of the Tang army soldiers would remain in single digits.

In just one quarter of an hour, at least 3,000 people were killed and more than 2,000 people were injured. Such a huge loss ratio directly reflects the difference in combat effectiveness between the two sides. Liang army is definitely not an opponent of the Tang army, even if their number is several times more!

While cleaning the battlefield, the soldiers of the Tang army disarmed the surrendered troops on the spot.

More than a hundred generals from Liang army, including Liang Shidu, knelt in front of Chen Ying.

Chen Ying looked at Liang Shidu condescendingly and said, "Liang Shidu, are you still asking for conditions?"

No one made a sound.

A role model is right in front of you. Whoever makes the conditions must be in his head. Chen Ying asked them to surrender unconditionally. This steel-like will cannot be changed. Too many people have paid a heavy price to disobey this will. They are not qualified to bargain with Chen Ying.

"Okay, it's time for me to make the conditions." Chen Ying looked around everyone, and almost none of them dared to face his gaze directly. He raised a finger: "First, you must hand over all the mules, horses, wealth, we will leave you with three months of living expenses. How you live in the future depends on your ability!"

The soldiers of the Liang army could only accept it silently.

"Second: You must hand over all the weapons, and you cannot keep a single one!"

"Third: Your troops must be disbanded, and no one can be left behind. We will break up and settle you, maybe placed in Liaodong, maybe placed in the Western Regions, or move some to Jiannan and Huguang. No matter where you are placed, you will always have food to eat, as long as you must cooperate and endure hardships. We do not raise idle people!"

The Liang army responded silently. If another ambassador dared to propose to disband their troops and dismantle them and place them in. They had already exploded the camp, but now they nodded like chickens pecking at rice. They would blow up the hair of an army that could kill themselves like ants, that would be a death.

Chen Ying said: "Since everyone has no objection, then..." pointed to a row of four-wheeled carriages, "Line in line, put the weapons on the car, then eat something, and then wait for placement with us."

The Liang soldiers looked like a trunk, lined up and threw their weapons into the car.

Shields, horizontal knives, spears, long swords, hammers... all kinds of things, and they all have them, loading cars after car.

More than a dozen cooking vans drove over, and the head-jun pulled out a tray of steaming buns and steamed buns from the car, and greeted the people of Tongwancheng and distributed them according to their hair.

It is still the same rule. Women and children are given priority. Young and strong ranks backwards. Liang soldiers finally wait for anyone who goes to the line to get beaten.
Chapter completed!
