When the sky turned white, soldiers in dark green uniforms and flint guns appeared on the official road outside Chang'an city.
After learning that the king of Zhao was trapped in Chang'an, Niu Zhen led the army that night and finally arrived at the foot of Chang'an this morning.
"Chang'an."
Luo Hong and Luo Xin were filled with tears when they saw Chang'an city. This is the place where they were born and where they have lived for more than 20 years.
Two years ago, they had to withdraw from Chang'an and seek refuge in Qingzhou. Now, two years later, they are standing under the city of Chang'an again. However, unlike the first embarrassment, they came back as winners this time.
"General, the remaining soldiers of the king of Zhao are still fighting in the inner palace with their guns. Just come here and blow the inner palace away with guns."
Qi Guangyi came with a horse.
Niu Zhen said: "the king of Zhao is just a turtle in a jar now. It's not urgent. The most important thing now is to take down the nearby counties, so as not to be attacked by enemies."
Speaking of this, Qi Guangyi said with a smile, "the general has been too worried. Now the families in Chang'an want to be under the emperor's command. The counties around Chang'an have already surrendered to the generals."
"That's good." Niu Zhen nodded, he said: "now the king of Zhao has been betrayed, such a cruel person, also should get retribution."
Along the way, Niu Zhen witnessed the people living in hardship. In order to launch the war and manufacture firearms, the king of Zhao constantly levied high taxes on the people, which led to the people's destitution.
And this is not the most terrible. It is said that on the route of Luoyang people's migration, what he saw was a lot of bones. For the sake of his royal power, King Zhao was already crazy.
Before he came to Chang'an, he was full of hatred for the king of Zhao.
"What the general said is that before the general came, the king of Zhao ordered the city to be slaughtered. If it wasn't for GE Yiren and other powerful families who led the tribe to open the gate inside the city, the people in Chang'an City would be out of ten." Qi Guangyi clenched his fist.
Luo Hong and Luo Xin were even more angry when they heard the words. Luo Hong said: "it's just a beast. General, please give the battle of attacking Neigong to the end general. There are many relatives of the soldiers in the firearm camp in Chang'an, and the end general will take revenge for them."
Niu Zhen nodded slowly. He said, "let the king of Zhao pay for his blood."
After talking at the gate of the city for a while, Niu Zhen led the army into the city. The king of Huainan and Chen Xinran looked at each other. They also had some relief in their eyes. After the war, they could return to their vassal state.
The expedition was very long. Unlike Niu's army, they were already exhausted.
As soon as they entered the city, a large group of people came in swarming. They were carrying flour cakes and clean water, and they sent food and water to the soldiers one after another.
This scene really shocked Niu Zhen. He couldn't help looking at Qi Guangyi.
After laughing twice, Qi Guangyi said: "general, this is not the idea of the last general. It's the people themselves who have to come. They say that we saved their lives. I hope we can kill the rebels as soon as possible and give Chang'an a peace."
Niu Zhen's serious face eased down when he heard the speech. He looked at the people and said, "the emperor said that the people are the foundation of the world. As long as the people are wholeheartedly towards us, we have soldiers and food everywhere we go. Now it seems that it is true."
All the other generals laughed at the news, and their faith in unifying the North became more and more firm in their hearts, because only by unifying the north can the people have a stable life.
In the past two years, they have fought from north to South and from east to west, and they have seen too many tragedies along the way.
Because of the war, the vassal King plundered the common people, the mountain bandits were rampant, the villagers were slaughtered, the production was cut off, and the common people were starving.
Once upon a time, a prosperous world was beaten by the war, and the population lost a lot in the war.
Now the bodies of the people can be seen everywhere on the road. They were either killed by soldiers or died of hunger and cold.
When they entered Chang'an, the civil strife that swept the state of Dayu came to an end.
When more than 100000 troops entered the city, the empty camp of Chang'an city was immediately filled. After the placement of soldiers, Luo Hong and Luo Xin led 40000 people to approach the inner palace.
They prepared artillery and muskets to bury King Zhao's men and horses.
"The king of Zhao installed a lot of guns in the inner palace." Five hundred meters away, rosin put down his telescope. Because he knew the range of the exported artillery, he was not worried that he would be hit.
This time Niu Zhen asked Luo Hong and Luo Xin to take charge of the siege. At the same time, they were followed by soldiers from the former firearms camp.
This time, they shared a common hatred and couldn't wait to kill King Zhao.
"How are you going to attack the city?" Luo Hong asked.
Luo Xin said lazily: "how can we attack the city? Do you need to be polite when dealing with King Zhao? "
Turning around, he yelled, "blow up the gate of the city. Fire!"
At his command, the field guns fired at the same time, and the huge roar continued.Although the wall of the inner palace was solid, it could not bear the continuous bombardment of so many guns. After another 20 minutes, the front tower collapsed directly.
Luo Xin did not stop at this time, but continued to bombard the walls on both sides, expanding the entrance.
Until he appeared in front of him in a 100 meter collapse area, he ordered to stop the shelling this time.
"Kill
When the gunfire went out, Luo Hong rushed into the inner palace first. The soldiers who used to belong to the firearm camp followed him. They were crazy with bayonets.
Niu Zhen didn't take command this time. According to Niu Zhen, if Luo Hong can't attack the inner palace at this time, he doesn't have to go back to see him.
The gap was opened, and the rest became simple. More and more soldiers rushed into the inner palace.
"Pa pa pa..."
When meeting Zhao Wang's soldiers, Luo Hong always commands them to complete a volley, and then raises his bayonet to fight with Zhao Jun.
In the battle with Qi Guangyi, Zhao soldiers have been defeated and their morale has been greatly reduced.
Now a group of musketeers with higher morale than cavalry rushed in, and they were even more unable to resist.
Although they had Zhao Jun's fierce style, they fought fiercely, but the advantage of firearms and the regular bayonet technique increased their casualties.
After more and more firemen swarmed into the inner palace, the will of the Zhao army began to disintegrate. Luo Hong realized this and attacked the Zhao army more and more fiercely.
The battle lasted from the morning to the evening. With the expanding advantage, Luo Hong successfully led the soldiers to capture the inner palace.
In the former Chengqing hall, they found the king of Zhao sitting on the Dragon chair, while Zhao Yuanliang was kneeling on the ground shivering.
