Chapter 046 Throwing the whip and breaking the flow! The battle of defending the city begins
"Zhao Feng is a lowly dog official, overestimating his ability and dares to hinder my army, but when the city is broken, you must kill all the grass people in Wanqiu, and keep the chickens and dogs!"
Hearing Huang Chao roared again, the generals of the pseudo-Qi Qi took the order. As the trajectory recorded in history, Huang Chao was very regretful of Meng Kai's death and was furious. However, he suddenly remembered something, and immediately explained Wang Bo's words. Compared with the words that Zhao Zu should have cursed and swore after capturing Meng Kai:
"I heard that the defeated soldiers of the vanguard reported that the Meng Kai brothers were defeated in Xiangcheng, but were intercepted and killed by another group of horses on the way to escape. Among them were those who used Tang swords, those who used big guns... There was also a powerful bow and arrow leading the way. On that day, you fought with the big guns. The killing was very brave. He also claimed his name as Wang Yanzhang...
But the Meng Kai brothers were killed by the donkey birds who used Tang swords! After several confrontations, the killing was indeed followed by Zhao Huo. When you attack Wanqiu, you must capture the man and come to see me. I also need to cut the rats and dogs into pieces, crush their bones and ashes, eat their flesh and sleep their skins to sacrifice to the spirits of the Meng Kai brothers in heaven!".........
"Ah snee!", "Ah snee!", "Ah snee!"
In Wanqiu City, Li Tianqu sneezed for no reason and kept rubbing his nose. Look at Wang Yanzhang, An Renyi, Jie Qing, Zhang Hu and others, and Li Tianqu immediately looked up straight and looked up. Because the governor of Chenzhou Zhao Lu was also mobilizing war at this moment.
The platform built not far from Wanqiu City Gate was crowded with people. Not only were there many Tang army soldiers, but there were brave people in the town, and groups of women, children, young and old were also watching the outside. The atmosphere was still somewhat interpreted, and many people present still showed a look of worry and anxiety...
Even if the former governor Zhao was wise and Shenwu, commanding the Tang army soldiers to win consecutive battles, greatly boosting the morale of the military and civilians in the city. But now, the hero Huang Chao, who personally led more than 100,000 troops, has been killed. The anti-army's scale and momentum is almost enough to completely swallow Wanqiu, Chenzhou... What's more, the people in the city have long heard of the increasingly cruel atrocities of the thieves against the army and harming the people. Now outside their homes, they are surrounded by more than 100,000 wolves and tigers. They are in such a dilemma. Who can't be afraid? How can they not be afraid?
"Now the thief is surrounded and there are unequal people. Men should survive in death, so why should they be afraid?"
Although I felt the air was filled with panic, Zhao Feng still pulled out his sword, pointed directly at the sky, and said enthusiastically: "My Zhao family has been favored by the emperor for generations, and the army of thieves is at the city. We share weal and woe with the people of Chenzhou. Now we are working together. If there is a fear of fighting and timidity, those who shake the morale of the army will be killed!
The brutal thief in the world knows that the world is aware of it. When I fight to the death, it is not just because men die for justice, but also because I want to guard my wife and children’s family. The clan’s relatives will not be harmed by the evil thief! Now that things have come, we have no way out, and we can only fight with the thief to the end! I, Zhao Qing, swore here that if there is any mistake in the supervision of the combat power to fight against the thief, I will teach me that before the elders and fellow villagers in Chenzhou, I will be the first to die under the swords and guns of the thief!”
Zhao Chang, Zhao Lu, Zhao Lin and others immediately started to clamor and agreed loudly. Soon, the passionate emotions in Zhao Hu's words infected many Tang army soldiers and ordinary people, and the response voices began to rise and fall, until the mountains and seas echoed in Wanqiu City, Chenzhou:
"Swear to live and die with Chenzhou! Resist the thief in the nest! Defend the country!"
Among the crowd, Li Tianqu couldn't help but shout with the excited and loud response. Although he defected to Zhao Hun in Chenzhou, it was originally for his own plan in the future, and he had to use Zhao Hun in some ways. In the future, he had to even calculate his Zhao family... But at least for now, Li Tianqu really admired Zhao Hun's personality and ability.
After all, at such a critical moment of life and death, if the chief general who guarded the city was not a general like Zhao Yuan, I am afraid that the morale and fighting spirit of the soldiers and civilians in Wanqiu, Chenzhou would have collapsed completely due to the fear of being surrounded by a large army of more than 100,000 thieves. Moreover, from the beginning, Zhao Yuan chose to take the initiative to attack, and even the battles were successful, which greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers and civilians in the city, and then to the historical record of resisting Huang Chao's army for more than 300 days... A relatively long period of time and day was dangerous, which was like walking on the blade. Any carelessness may also lead to the massacre of all living creatures in Wanqiu, Chenzhou, who were furious and crazy, being slaughtered by the army under Huang Chao.
According to the trajectory of the war, Zhao Yuan should have defended Wanqiu and won this arduous struggle. But thinking of this, Li Tianqu couldn't help but feel a little worried...
After swearing to mobilize the military and civilians of Chenzhou, they mobilized morale and ordered the soldiers of various departments to actively prepare for the war. Zhao Quan summoned Li Tianqu and others to the Yanei Hall of Wanqiu Prefecture, but privately thanked Li Tianqu.
After all, if Zhao Lin, the second son of Zhao Lu, had not led a group of sharp cavalry to provide timely assistance, he would have ended up in a miserable way of death in the enemy formation outside the city. Although Zhao Lin was still a little unhappy and reluctant, he was taken out by Zhao Lu to teach him again. He had to bow to Li Tianqu and others in front of his father and two uncles, and said embarrassedly: "Uh...thank you..."
Although the second young master did not have to thank him, his colleagues refused the thief in the nest, and worked together to entrust each other with their lives... Li Tianqu also realized that according to the fate of Zhao Lin, the son-in-law of the Houliang in history had almost lived in the fall of the first dynasty of the Five Dynasties. In theory, he should not have died in the battle against Chenzhou between Zhao Yuan and Huang Chao.
But the situation was almost urgent at that time, and Li Tianqu knew very well that if he had chosen to rescue Zhao Lin immediately due to a thought, no deliberate delay... This second son of the Zhao family, Zhu Wen, the son-in-law of the Liang Dynasty, would not have the possibility of survival and returning to the city in the future.
In other words, because of his own, not only did Wang Yanzhang and An Renyi and other brave generals also participated in the Chenzhou war, but not only Huang Chao's confidant Meng Kai died under his sword by Li Tianqu... For some other people and some things have begun to deviate from their original trajectory...
Since there are variables in the development of the situation, even for the Tang army in Chenzhou, there are more powerful helpers such as Li Tianqu, Wang Yanzhang, and An Renyi. But good fortune is hidden, misfortune is dependent on good fortune, people's fate, the fixed number of the current situation, the energy of the world... The connection between the progress of the situation is profound and mysterious, and it is difficult for people to guess the good and bad luck, and they can determine that it is a prosperous road. Just keep going all the way and everything will be successful...
Therefore, at present, Li Tianqu knew that he could no longer say that he could die in one word. Chenzhou Wanqiu would definitely be able to defend himself. He would work hard to kill with his life, and he would not tolerate any negligence.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
The next morning, the sound of killing was already shook the sky around Wanqiu, Chenzhou. Li Tianqu led his Tang army soldiers to climb up to the city wall early to make arrangements. When he noticed that the army of thieves outside the city was moving, he immediately looked out from the top of the city.
But the crowds of people outside the city were crowded with people, with boundless scales. It seemed that it was really a huge momentum of throwing whips. Although he had experienced several victories and was mobilized by Zhao Yuan, the backbone of the city, the morale of the Chenzhou defenders could be said to be very high, and they were all ready to welcome the upcoming battle. However, some soldiers could not help but feel a little palpitations when they saw the huge formation outside...
