Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 468
The smell of blood was pungent, and the feeling of vomiting came again.

Cheng Chumo saw with his own eyes the intestines of a rebel soldier coming out of the wound.

In addition to blood, there was even the smell of some people's excrement and urine.

They, who had been staying in Chang'an City all this time, couldn't believe it when they saw such a bloody scene for the first time.

Is this what war looks like?

Cruel, unspeakably cruel.

They always thought that fighting with members of the Soviet Party was already considered cruel, but when they went to the battlefield, they realized that the previous fights were simply childish.

"What are you doing in a daze? If you want to become a man, kill me. If you are not an enemy, you will be killed by the enemy. This is the law of the battlefield."

Cheng Yaojin roared, those who experienced the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty can best understand what war is.

Cheng Chumo and the others suddenly came to their senses after being yelled at by Cheng Yaojin.

"kill……"

Blood was sprayed on their faces, but they didn't have time to wipe it, because when they wiped their faces, they might be killed by the rebels.

Like anyone who experienced war for the first time, Cheng Chumo and others gradually began to adapt to the laws of war from the previous nausea and anxiety.

Even relatively speaking, they are a little better than ordinary people, after all, as the sons of generals, they have been more influenced by their ears and eyes.

The killing continued, and by the time the sun set, the defeat of the rebels was inevitable.

Seeing this, Chen Bubu knew that it would be of no benefit to them if they continued to kill, so without any further hesitation, he immediately called for gold and withdrew his troops.

Chen didn't know how to break through with soldiers and horses, but the rebels who had crossed the moat were surrounded by the Tang army.

They were targets during the siege, and now they are beginning to be abandoned.

"General, what should we do with these rebels, why don't we just kill them?" A lieutenant general asked Cheng Yaojin, and when he said this, the sword in his hand was already ready to try.

Cheng Yaojin looked at those rebels, but suddenly asked Qin Tianlai.

"Qin Tian, ​​what do you think we should do with these people?"

Qin Tiandao: "Lu Guogong, they are just refugees from my Tang Dynasty, they just joined the rebel army as a last resort."

Hearing this, Cheng Yaojin understood what Qin Tian meant. In addition, Li Shimin also said that if he could persuade the rebels to surrender, he would persuade the rebels to surrender, so he waved his hand and said, "Put down your weapons and surrender. The general will spare you, if not, you will be killed without mercy."

Cheng Yaojin's voice was cold, and the rebels trembled. There were about a thousand of them, but facing the Tang army at this time, their strength was too weak.

The rebels looked at each other before the first man lowered his weapon.

And just as the first person put down his weapon, the rest of the people also put down their weapons one after another.

"Very good, as long as you are willing to surrender, you will still be my citizens of the Tang Dynasty. If you are willing to join the Tang army, I will give you military pay and weapons. If you don't want to, I will give you food, and you will fend for yourself."

After these rebels surrendered, Qin Tian said that the combat power of these rebels is very weak, even inferior to those bandits on Fengluo Mountain, but there are a lot of rebels now, and they urgently need to expand their strength.

If Li Shimin doesn't give it, they can only increase it themselves.

Most of these rebels were refugees. After hearing Qin Tian's words, they were immediately overjoyed. Soon, most of them expressed their willingness to serve as soldiers, and only a small number of them expressed their desire to leave.

It took a lot of time to recruit the rebels, and by the time everything was done, it was already late.

And it wasn't until this time that Qin Tian and the others finally arrived at the Governor's Mansion.

Zhang Danian, who has been fighting for a day, is very tired, and because of his injuries, he is now in a state of collapse.

It was also because of this that Qin Tian ordered him to go back to rest after the rebels were dealt with.

However, after Qin Tian and the others came, Zhang Danian rushed out to greet them.

"Lu Guogong, Lord Qin, you are here, these rebels are going to be dealt with." Zhang Danian was a little excited, Cheng Yaojin laughed: "Judging from today's situation, those rebels are nothing more than that, wait for a rest Alright, this general will lead the troops and destroy them one by one."

Originally, Cheng Yaojin was still a little worried that his soldiers and horses were not enough, but after today's World War I, he was full of confidence in himself.

Qin Tian smiled lightly.

Cheng Yaojin curled his lips and asked, "Why, do you have an opinion?"

Qin Tiandao: "Mr. Lu underestimated these rebels too much. It's not about the power of the rebels today, but the strength of the rebels today. They have been fighting Master Zhang for a day and are already very tired, but even so, But they were able to fight with us for so long, and finally they were able to break out, so we can know that these rebels are not easy."

Cheng Yaojin rolled his eyes, but Zhang Danian followed suit and said, "Your Majesty is right. Although these rebels are not very strong, they don't want to fight. They want to take the city now and carry out the war." Crazy snatching, with these stimuli, they really cannot be underestimated."

The words of the two dispelled Cheng Yaojin's enthusiasm, and at this time, Zhang Danian said again: "These are just rebels, and in Li Yiyu's hands, there is still a 5000-strong army. The level is no less than that of our Tang army."

Zhang Danian seemed to want to dispel Cheng Yaojin's enthusiasm and elevate the rebels very high. Chen Yaojin was a little displeased, and said: "So, we are not the opponents of those rebels anymore?"

Zhang Danian obviously heard Cheng Yaojin's dislike, so he couldn't help shutting his mouth, and cast his eyes on Qin Tian, ​​Qin Tian smiled and said: "Okay, although the rebel army is strong, there is nothing we can do about it. Don't forget, we are backed by the mighty Datang."

As he said that, Qin Tian asked: "We are new here, so we don't know much about the situation of the rebels. Tell us about the sphere of influence of the rebels, so that we can discuss the next countermeasures."

Zhang Danian nodded: "At present, the strength of the rebel army has expanded to [-] soldiers and horses. We have wiped out quite a few today, but they still have at least [-] soldiers and horses, and among the [-] soldiers and horses , the [-] soldiers led by Li Yiyu are guarding Mengzhou, and the remaining [-] soldiers are distributed in Ying County and Wen County. There are only [-] soldiers left in the county."

"Among them, Yingxian County and Wenxian County are only one day away from Mengzhou. They are at odds with each other and can help each other to avoid being attacked by us."

Obviously, Li Yiyu is also a man who is very good at fighting. After the rebellion, he led the troops to capture several good cities to take care of each other.

If there is no absolute strength, if you attack any city, you may be attacked by the rebels. At that time, the situation was very bad for the Tang army.

Of course, siege is a big problem.
