The soldiers entered Tongguan with orderly steps.
Inside the pass, sun Lirong has come down from the city wall. Looking at Chen Guodong's soldiers, sun Lirong suddenly feels a little strange.
But this strange feeling was soon replaced by the desire for silver.
"General Chen, King Zhao will certainly reward you for bringing him so much silver." Sun Lirong laughed, but he thought about how to occupy the silver.
Chen Guodong and ye Qingyun have entered the pass. Chen Guodong still smiles, but ye Qingyun's eyes flash a cold color.
The soldiers who came with him this time were all elite veterans. Although there were only 5000, it was enough to capture the gate.
Sun Lirong didn't realize the danger at this time. He and Chen Guodong exchanged greetings and went to the front of the box.
Just when sun Lirong reaches for his hand to open the box, ye Qingyun suddenly gets into trouble, pulls out his sword and stabs sun Lirong's heart from behind.
The sword was so deadly that sun Lirong fell to the ground without even making a scream. Other Zhao soldiers were shocked and rushed to Ye Qingyun and Chen Guodong.
"Kill
The soldiers of Qingzhou army who entered the city rushed to the soldiers of Zhao army at the same time. Although they have been killing the enemy with firearms, their ability of close combat has never been lowered.
Moreover, the sharpening of the war made them rich in experience. Every move was fatal instead of useless tricks.
Sun Lirong died, which made the soldiers at the gate of the city a little confused. After fighting with the Qingzhou army, they were beaten and retreated.
The soldiers of Zhao army were shocked and kept withdrawing from the pass.
At this time, ye Qingyun lit the fireworks, with a bang, the sky burst out of colorful flames.
It was nearly dusk. In a forest five miles away from Tongguan, Niu Zhen saw the fireworks in the direction of Tongguan.
At this time, he said to Qi Guangyi and Bai Mu, "you will lead the cavalry to help immediately, and you will come with you."
"Yes, general."
Qi Guangyi and Bai Mu said that they came to Tongguan with their horses and cavalry.
Niu Zhen immediately led the army to follow him.
When he arrived, ye Qingyun had successfully controlled the city gate and the city wall, while Qi Guangyi and Baimu quickly controlled other city gates by virtue of their cavalry.
"General, sun Lirong, the general of Tongguan, is dead. The garrison in the city is leaderless. It is not our opponent at all. Now it has been defeated. "Said Ye Qingyun.
Niu Zhen nodded. Qi Guangyi and Bai Mu led more cavalry than the garrison. There was no reason why they could not be captured.
He asked Lu Fei to lead his soldiers into the city to further destroy the Zhao army in the pass. At the same time, he said to the king of Huainan and Chen Xinran: "Your Highness, General Chen, take Tongguan. Chang'an is in front of you. I hope you can help each other and take Chang'an at one stroke."
Wang Huainan and Chen Xinran now have admiration for the Western expeditionary army. In their view, they are really a brilliant army.
The two arched their hands to Niu Zhen and said in the same voice, "only at the command of the general."
Niu Zhen nodded his head. This time Tongguan was so easily taken down is a success of their plan, but the most important point is the garrison of Tongguan.
In the past, at least 100000 soldiers could be stationed in Tongguan, but now there are only 30000 soldiers in Tongguan.
First hulaoguan, then Tongguan, Zhao Wang's weakness was seen in his eyes, and now it was the opportunity to destroy Zhao Wang at one stroke.
When the army entered the city, the remaining garrison in the city was soon cleaned up. That night Niu Zhen once again concentrated on the generals to make plans to attack Chang'an.
Different from the usual, Niu Zhen's attack plan was quite bold. He ordered Qi Guangyi and Bai Mu to lead the cavalry to Chang'an.
If Chang'an's defense is weak, he will take the opportunity to harass them. At the same time, he asks Qi Guangyi and Bai Mu to get in touch with Chang'an's powerful families. Up to now, if they can't see the situation clearly, they can only say that they are too stupid.
However, in Niu's view, as long as Qi Guangyi and Baimu's cavalry arrive, this will be the last straw to crush the king of Zhao.
Because at that time, the Chang'an Haozu will surely turn to them to deal with this rebellion.
……
Chang'an.
The sudden increase in the number of soldiers on the streets has made the people a little uneasy, and the peaceful atmosphere of Chang'an has gradually become a little strange over the past month.
The fact that Luoyang City was looted by Zhao army made them very worried, for fear that they would end up with Luoyang people.
"Father, the Qi army is coming fiercely. My children always feel that Chang'an is not a place to stay for a long time. It's better to plunder the money and take the people back."
Zhao Yuanliang advised in the Imperial Palace study.
The king of Zhao fondly stroked the exquisite porcelain in his study. It was the official kiln porcelain that an emperor could enjoy. But now he wanted to abandon it. He was not reconciled.
"Hum, if it wasn't for the incompetence of Deng yuan and Wang Xi, why should I be so embarrassed now!" Zhao Wang was furious.
Zhao Yuanliang naturally shirked the defeat of Juyongguan. In fact, he was the commander of Juyongguan.But he was greedy for life and afraid of death. He never went to the battlefield and stayed in Yuanzhou.
Although he hated Xiao Ming very much, in his heart, he was afraid of Xiao Ming's army. He had a lingering fear during his last trip to Qingzhou.
"What my father said is very true. It's just that Wang Xi was put into prison. Deng yuan is still useful. I hope my father will think twice."
Zhao Wang Wen nodded, "you said some truth, let Deng yuan continue to stay in the army to atone for his exploits."
Zhao Yuanliang was slightly relieved. He continued, "but is my father still going to stay in Chang'an? After all, this is not a place to stay for a long time. "
The king of Zhao already had the intention of evacuating Chang'an in his heart. Chang'an's Treasury was looted by him. Except for the palace, he had nothing to miss.
But there was still a fluke in his heart. If the king of Qi did not move westward, he might not have to withdraw from here. After all, who was willing to leave the place of flowers.
"Now you have to wait for the news of Tongguan, but you have to be prepared. If the news is bad, you will burn Chang'an immediately and force the people to move to Yuanzhou." A shrewdness flashed in King Zhao's eyes.
He didn't care about the rise and fall of the state of Dayu. In his eyes, he had only his own royal power, so he could destroy everything and betray everything.
"Yes, father, I'm going to prepare." Zhao Yuanliang, like the king of Zhao, wanted to enjoy the glory and wealth in his feudal state even if he could not obtain the imperial power of Dayu.
After a pause, he thought of something and suddenly asked, "father, what about the thirteen princes?"
"Leave the thirteen princes to Xiao Ming. I want to see how he treats a two-year-old prince." Zhao Wang sneered.
Zhao Yuanliang laughed at the same time. At this time, he left the palace, but the pride of him and the king of Zhao stopped the next day.
Qi Guangyi and Bai Mu led a large number of cavalry to appear outside Chang'an city.
