Chapter 1101： Into the city (2)

The first thing Qi Xiuyuan did when he entered the city was to ask Qi Haoran and others to receive the golden soldiers, and no mutiny was allowed.

Qi Haoran disrupted more than 80,000 Jin soldiers according to their lengths and merged them into the Qi army separately. The Jin army consisted of 100 people. They were familiar with each other. It would not be too scary to be merged into the Qi army. Can't mess up.

The Jinbing was merged into the Qi army when they were still full of fear, and they were at a loss and at a loss. When they realized that they were abandoned by their king, they could no longer contact any more compatriots.

When Mu Yangling entered the city, he only had time to hold hands with Qi Haoran and then parted. He was too busy to touch the ground, but Mu Yangling was idle. After thinking about it, she went to the camp where the golden soldiers were received. Seeing that there was no conflict between Jin Bing and Qi Jun, there was a fierce light in their eyes from time to time when they looked at each other.

Mu Yangling turned to look for Jin Bing,

Instead of letting them be at a loss and breed killing intent, it is better to tell them the decision of the upper management and let them choose freely.

Qi Xiuyuan didn't actually make up his mind on what to do with the surrendering golden soldiers. Seeing Mu Yangling talking about this, he asked with a smile, "What can you do?"

"Brother, it's not good for us to keep them, but it requires us to spend more effort to rectify and guard them, and killing prisoners hurts the world, it is better to let them choose, if they are willing to stay, we will collect them and leave if they want to leave. , divide them some rations and a few taels of silver."

Qi Xiuyuan frowned, "Wouldn't this provide combat power for the escaped Golden Royal Family?"

Mu Yangling said with a smile: "Big brother, it's no secret that Wu Lie used the Central Capital to trade with us for 30,000 people to flee. Do you think the abandoned Jinbing will still be loyal to them?"

Qi Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"What's more, in order to provoke Dayuan to siege the city, Wu Lie threw gold and silver jewelry down, ignoring the golden soldiers guarding the northern city. As soon as the news came out, those soldiers who lost their father, brother and comrade-in-arms were still willing to defect to the golden royal family?"

Qi Xiuyuan knocked on the table and said, "Perhaps we can not only do this to Jin Bing, but the Jin royal family has not taken many powerful people away, and there are still many people who have been abandoned. If I don't believe them, I will not complain at all. It can also make them resentful."

Qi Xiuyuan took Mu Yangling's suggestion and asked the generals who had recruited Jinbing to be kinder to the others, and told him that when the Yuan army retreated, the situation in the city was stable, and everyone who wanted to leave could get 10 taels of silver and leave with rations for five days. , the military salaries and luggage they have saved can be taken away.

Those who do not want to leave can continue to serve in the army and be recaptured by the Qi army. They must respect the laws and regulations of Qi.

In order to enhance the reliability of this statement, Qi Xiuyuan also specially had people write documents and post them all over the camp, with the emperor's big seal on it.

This era is about Chrysostom, words from the emperor's mouth will be 100% fulfilled, at least he won't break his promise.

Jin Bing, who was confused in the army, woke up a little.

In addition, Mu Yangling also asked the generals of Qi Jun to do their ideological work and let them look forward to a bright future. Those soldiers of the Jin Kingdom who wanted to follow the martyrdom gradually eased.

As soon as the situation in the army eased, it affected the atmosphere in the city, and the dark clouds that had been pressing on Zhongdu City seemed to have dissipated a little.

Outside the city, the Yuan army assembled 600,000 troops to attack the city.

Qi Haoran looked at their sneer from the tower, "Wo Kuo has only conquered the country, and he is so poor that this king does not believe that he has so much food and grass to support him. If he defends for another ten days, they will retreat."

General Yuan was very worried, "There are villages and towns outside the city. I'm afraid that the Yuan army will collect food on the spot, and the people outside the city..."

Qi Haoran's face was also a little cold, but he said: "This is inevitable."

The provisions of the 600,000-strong army, let alone Dayuan, even Daqi would have to be mobilized for a certain period of time. Wo Kuo was so anxious to mobilize the 600,000-strong army, thinking that he wanted to collect food on the spot.

Qi Haoran was not worried that they would rob the people of food rations, but only worried that they would harm the lives of the people.

The Jin royal family left in a hurry, leaving behind a lot of food, plus it was copied from the family of the gold elite, it was not difficult to provide relief to the people after the war.

After all, this is the capital of Daikin, leaving behind the wealth of a country.

Qi Haoran turned and left, leaving an order, "Be sure to defend the city."

General Yuan bowed his head in response.

Because Daqi captured the city without a single soldier, although the Yuan army increased by 400,000 troops, it gradually became impatient, and even Wo Kuo was not as stable as before, making repeated mistakes.

And the 600,000-strong army consumes three times the food and forage every day, and the food and forage they had left for 20 days consumed most of it in a few days.

Wokuo had to send troops to forcibly collect food and grass in the nearby villages and towns. The people complained, and the rear became unstable, but they still failed to capture the central capital, and the defense of the Han people was getting tighter day by day.

Many generals proposed to give up.

Ke Wo Kuo laid down Dajin's devastated country, but he failed to get the wealth left by Dajin, and the treasury had no money. How could he rule the entire country?

Most of Dajin's wealth was in Zhongdu City. Thinking of the jewels that Wu Lie had left in the city a few days ago, Wo Kuo's heart burst into flames, but they really couldn't afford it. Without food and grass, if they stayed any longer, they would only be afraid that the soldiers would mutiny. .

Wokuo's face was ugly, but he had to order a retreat on the eighth day after the Qi army entered the city.

However, Qi Haoran still got the news.

Mu Yangling was amazed, "This Li Zhang is a genius who does meticulous work. At this point, he can still spread news."

Qi Haoran put away the note and said, "This is his last hand, he knows that if Wo Kuo catches him, he will not kill him, but this time he retreats, Wo Kuo will definitely use him to vent his anger, and he will surely die. However, he was indeed very patient, and he was able to keep his trump card until now."

"Are you going to save him?"

"Of course, wouldn't it be a pity not to save such a person?" Qi Haoran said with a smile: "Master still pointed him to come back and continue to serve us."

After this series of events, Qi Haoran really looked at Li Zhang with admiration. Naturally, he was reluctant to let such a person die. He was the founding hero of Dayuan, and he was with him since Wo Kuo was a slave in mining. Dayuan is now He is very familiar with all the civil servants and military generals, and he understands Wo Kuo. It is really a great weapon to deal with Dayuan. Not to mention Qi Haoran, even Qi Xiuyuan also gave orders to rescue Li Zhang at any cost.

Qi Haoran ordered 3,000 soldiers from the elite soldiers he had brought before and quietly left.

Mu Yangling could only continue to wait for him at home with her heart in her hands. She felt her pounding heart and thought to herself, she must have been frightened by the fact that he entered the city before, otherwise why would she be so panicked?

You must know that before he went on expeditions, she always smiled and waited for him to come back.

Xiao Xiong came back from the outside happily. Seeing his mother's uneasy look, he wondered: "Mother, what's the matter with you?"
