Chapter 858 Take Luoyang
"Hehe. Please tell Wang Shichong that there is only unconditional surrender, and I will not accept any additional conditions. If you are not convinced, we will see you on the battlefield."
Naturally, Wang Shichong couldn't sit still. He reluctantly integrated various forces that were not convinced by each other in Luoyang, and forced the people to expand the city defense force, organized the elderly, children and strong women to demolish houses as raw materials for the city defense. determination.
When Huang Chao saw the situation in the city, he called everyone together and said, "I originally wanted to wait for the Guanzhong army to join up and take Luoyang in one go. Now he demolishes the houses in the city and confiscates the people all day long. I can't bear it if I just sit idly by. So I decided to attack the city ahead of schedule. Li Jing, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Luo Shixin, and Li Yuanji listened to the order..."
He arranged the task of siege in an orderly manner, and everyone agreed one after another, and then praised: "My lord is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. It is really a blessing for all people." No embarrassment at all.
In this world of martial arts, Huang Chao decided to change the game. Although he also farmed this time, he did not climb the technology tree quickly. Instead, he used the special treasures of this world to build an army of extraordinary power. More than a dozen super generals, as well as the mysterious armored cavalry with extraordinary combat power, became his sharp weapons to attack the world. Those who oppose him will always be in the minority, and Huang Chao's troops are concentrated in power, which is an amazing blow to all kinds of powerful leaders who rely on their own bravery.
Dou Jiande in the north learned that Wang Shichong was in danger, so he immediately led an army to rescue him. He also had conflicts with Wang Shichong before, but in the face of Huang Chao's power sweeping the world, the two of course chose to unite.
"Speed up the march. Huang Chao's army is attacking extremely fiercely. It is impossible to defend Luoyang City for long." Dou Jiande issued an order worryingly, lengthening the queue of the line. before reaching the battlefield.
In order to avoid Li Shimin's ambush, Dou Jiande sent scouts far away, spreading over dozens of miles, to investigate Li Shimin's movements. All the way went smoothly, Huang Chao had no intention of "surrounding the spot to fight for aid". He sent his troops to storm Luoyang. With the cooperation of Jingnian Temple and other forces, Luoyang City fell within a few days.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang Shichong wanted to surrender, but at this time, Huang Chao's army from both sides had arrived, and Luoyang was still hesitating and arguing. Among his generals, such as Yuchi Jingde already had a protective Qi wall of qi, he would jump on top of the wall after stepping on the ladder twice, greatly defeating the effect of the enemy's defensive preparations. Even if the enemy used golden boiling oil as a defensive weapon, Yuchi Jingde still rushed forward without hesitation, setting off a bloody storm on the top of the city.
"Not bad, not bad." Huang Chao watched from the front, very satisfied with Yuchi Jingde's progress.
Li Jing, Qin Qiong and others also stood on the wall, and Huang Chao could hear Cheng Yaojin's roar from a distance. The opponent's signature ax danced into a windmill, and the enemies were all torn apart wherever it passed.
Huang Chao sat on the saddle leisurely, and happily said to the left and right: "Luoyang is broken." Then he immediately received congratulations from the left and right. Huang Chao feels everyone's fighting state, not only deduces the corresponding martial arts application, but seems to just watch the battle calmly, in fact, a lot of calculations are consumed in training and thinking.
Seeing that the situation was over, Wang Shichong finally decided to surrender, but unfortunately he had already missed the date of unconditional surrender. The big family with this idea, if you really look into it, which family has not been involved in crimes? Wang Shichong's sons have limited abilities, but they are not unfamiliar with things like bullying men and women. This kind of thing waits until the other party surrenders, and then pursues it, which seems to be a deliberate killing and surrender.
"Refused to surrender, the city is broken and you still want to surrender? Destroy the Wang family with the force of thunder." Huang Chao simply eliminated the opponent directly, without taking the detour of surrender and liquidation. Although Huang Chao vigorously develops production, resources are limited for a while. The fields and wealth of Wang Shichong's family were just used to reward meritorious officials and develop production.
The black Xuanjia iron cavalry poured into Luoyang City like a flood, followed by the Xuanjia iron cavalry reserve team. The four thousand cavalry in front and behind all had this extraordinary force. Under the leadership of generals and officers, they quickly occupied the city. The key location in Luoyang monitors every important family residence. And the five hundred mysterious armored cavalry, led by Li Yuanji and Li Xiaogong, went straight to the imperial palace in Dongdu.
At this time, in the palace of Luoyang, Wang Shichong kidnapped Yang Tong and guarded the palace with his loyal soldiers. Huang Chao brought people to the gate of the palace, and Wang Shichong cursed on the tower: "Li Shimin, you dare to attack the palace, do you want to rebel?!"
Huang Chao just wanted to laugh. At this time, everyone has a heart of self-reliance. Wang Shichong respected Yang Tong as emperor in Luoyang, and he also monopolized the power. Now they are still using the Sui Dynasty's "great righteousness" to spray Huang Chao, which misses the point at all, not to mention Huang Chao's subordinates, even Huang Chao's troops are not in the slightest confusion.
"Wang Shichong, since you are a loyal minister of the Sui Dynasty and committed suicide quickly, I promise not to hurt Yang Yu's life. Don't you, a loyal minister, die for the emperor?"
"Don't disturb people's hearts. You just want to cheat to open the palace gate. If I commit suicide, I will only let your plot succeed." Huang Chao didn't even answer the words, and his soldiers laughed when they heard this.
With a wave of Huang Chao's hand, it was like sweeping away a piece of dust: "Attack!"
By the way, what does kidnapping Yang Tong have to do with me? Don't you still expect me to be a mousetrap? Huang Chaoming has a halo of recruiting people everywhere, and at the same time has a perfect system, and has carefully arranged all developments. He has a solid popular base and a strong and loyal army. Now he has jumped out of the pitiful righteousness of "holding the emperor to order the princes". Not worth mentioning.
The next day, the fire in the Luoyang Palace was completely extinguished by Huang Chao's army. Huang Chao no longer avoided suspicion, and directly lived in the palace to work. Yesterday, there was a chaotic battle, and all Wang Shichong's forces died in battle. Before they died, they even killed the hostage Yang Dong. This is already too far behind in thinking. In the end, Wang Shichong felt that killing a prince of the Sui Dynasty would cause trouble for Huang Chao...
"I don't need to explain to him, I like to think whatever I want." Huang Chao and Ling Yuhan took a car tour around the city, Huang Chao closed his eyes and rested his mind, and said, "I feel a little irritable, it should be Xiaoxiao who wants to attack us."
Dou Jiande hurried to Luoyang, and when he came to Luoyang, he still saw the Li character flag on the head of Luoyang city. Dou Jiande was very single, and when he got the report from the scouts, he immediately turned around and left without fighting Huang Chao at all. As the reputation of the Li family's many battles spread, other forces in the world found out in despair that they could not resist the generals and super soldiers of the Li family.
Huang Chao had seen Dou Jiande's attack a long time ago, but Dou Jiande escaped so simply, it was beyond his expectation. Huang Chao said to his subordinates who were following him outside: "Changsun Wuji, Liu Hongji, Tang Jian, and Duan Zhixuan set up their troops and horses, and went out of the city to pursue Dou Jiande. Liu Wenjing dispatched food and grass, followed with a large army, and chased all the way to Dou Jiande's hometown. .Changsun Wuji will be in charge of the overall situation. I will send a letter to my eldest brother, asking him to cooperate with you from another direction."
Everyone bowed in response, but their eyes were eager to try. Immediately, the city gate of Luoyang opened wide, and groups of soldiers and horses rushed out of the city gate and galloped along the avenue heading north.
Huang Chao rubbed his brows: "Dou Jiande's army is coming, it's not a small party. It seems that someone is full of confidence and wants to die in front of me."
