At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 344 Three Days
At this time, Liyang County has been surrounded by rebels on all sides, and the blockade is airtight.

The bright moon hangs high and the night wind is blowing. Yang Qingruo stands on the top of the city with a long sword on her body, her green clothes fluttering against the wind, her figure is sassy yet graceful, the green gauze hides most of her beautiful and charming face, only revealing a pair of talking Such bright and beautiful eyes, but still give people a feeling of suffocation.

Sun Shangming is the only woman among the deacons of Feiyu Guards. She is in her early thirties, and she is as strong as a man. She is [-] meters tall and has a big waist. She is wearing a battle armor and holding a battle ax at Yang Qingruo. By his side, if he was only viewed from behind, he would look like a tiger-like macho.

"Director Qing, after nightfall, three yamen servants and fifteen civilian husbands sneaked away. This city is about to lose its hold, so let's break through as soon as possible!" Sun Shangming's voice was cold, but at least it was not rough and buzzing. She has a beautiful voice, and a delicate and soft face, which is incompatible with her macho figure, and it is shocking to see her at first sight.

Looking at the hustle and bustle outside the city and the high morale of the rebels, Yang Qingruo couldn't help but secretly sighed.Frozen three feet does not happen in a day. The reason why Yang Xuangan was able to climb up and respond to the crowd is certainly related to his status and status, but the most important thing is that the emperor's actions are unpopular. Unfortunately, the emperor is too paranoid to listen to others To continue to launch the second Eastern Expedition in a situation where the country's vitality was already severely damaged, the people of the world were exhausted to the limit, like dry wood soaked in kerosene, even a small spark would be enough to start a prairie fire .

"Stay here for another three days!" Yang Qingruo said categorically. The news of Yang Xuangan's rebellion must have reached Luoyang, the eastern capital, but Luoyang needs time to mobilize troops and strengthen the city's defenses. With a little safety, the emperor far away in Liaodong can return to the teacher to suppress the rebellion more calmly.

Sun Shangming was not very optimistic about being able to stay for another three days, but she didn't argue, because she knew that Chief Qing always said one thing, three days was three days, and there was no room for change, so she swung her battle ax and said: "Okay, belong to From now on, I will take people to catch more civilians to help defend the city."

Yang Qingruo shook his head and said: "Deacon Sun, our method was wrong from the beginning. There is a saying that goes well, a twisted melon is not sweet. Although a sharp knife and a neck can force the people to submit for a while, but if the people's hearts are against you, it will only end in complete failure. .”

Sun Shangming naturally knew that for the past two days, she arrested people and went to the city to defend the city every day. As a result, at least half of the people she caught during the day ran away at night. With the intimidation of the warlords behind and the fact that the attacking rebels hadn't prepared the attacking equipment yet, this Liyang County was already destroyed.

"Then what should we do? The troops defending the city are seriously insufficient. If we don't arrest the people and help them, I'm afraid we won't be able to defend the city tomorrow morning." Sun Shangming said in a deep voice.

Yang Qingruo said indifferently: "There must be a brave man under the heavy reward. Those houses were confiscated, and all the property was piled up under the four cities. Anyone who voluntarily guards the city will receive a thousand coins a day and kill a rebel You can get [-] coins, [-] coins for killing a team leader, [-] taels of silver for killing a leader of the team, [-] taels of silver for killing a clan leader, promotion to a higher level, the more kills, the better , the greater the reward!"

Sun Shang's eyes lit up, and he pushed the ax behind his waist: "This subordinate has an order!" After speaking, he took a dozen Feiwei to search the house and slaughter the fat sheep.

…………

The main tent outside the city was brightly lit, and Yang Xuangan sat in the middle with majestic eyes, as if the king was on the world.Also present were Li Mi, Fang Yanzao, Yang Xuanting, Yang Wanshuo, Yang Jishan and other members of the Yang clan.

Yang Xuangan's complexion was not very good at this time. Although yesterday he announced the uprising, there were a large number of responders, and he pulled up an army of more than 30,000 people in just two days, but Liyang County, which is close at hand, has not been able to win so far. This made him very unhappy.

As the saying goes, beside the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly?

Liyang County is right next door to Liyang Cang, and the food in Liyang Cang is the source of Yang Xuangan's confidence in rebelling against the Sui Dynasty. If the rebel army can't take Liyang County and occupy the entire Liyang County, how dare Yang Xuangan lead his army to leave and attack other countries? As for the place, aren't you afraid that your old nest will be copied?
Therefore, Yang Xuangan's top priority is to win Liyang County, and if he can't even win Liyang County, who will come to join him?I'm afraid that even the soldiers gathered now will disappear in an instant!

Originally, Liyang County was close to Liyang Cangcheng. Since Yang Xuangan was planning to rebel, how could he not send someone to infiltrate in advance? In fact, even Liming County Magistrate is from Yang Xuangan, and most of the gentry in the city have contacts with Yang Xuangan, so, Originally, as long as Yang Xuangan was activated, Liyang County would be at his fingertips.

However, the result surprised Yang Xuangan. He launched a campaign against the Sui Dynasty yesterday. He originally planned to send a team of only a hundred people to take over Liyang County. When the defenders attacked head-on, dozens of people were killed or injured on the spot, and more than a dozen corpses were thrown at the foot of Liyang City, and then they fled back to Liyang warehouse.

Yang Xuangan was shocked when he heard the report, and after some investigation, he found out that Liyang County was already under the control of Feiyuwei, all the county magistrates were imprisoned, and all the gentry who had contact with him were also under control.

After Yang Xuangan figured out the situation, he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. Fei Yuwei actually lurked in Liyang City ahead of time, obviously planning to attack him. Fortunately, he mobilized ahead of time, otherwise he might have become a prisoner!
After Yang Xuangan was shocked, he immediately sent a large army to besiege Liyang County, intending to wipe out all the Feiyuwei in the city.

Closer to home, let's talk about Yang Xuangan looking at his younger brother Yang Xuanting displeasedly in the big tent of the Chinese army, and said in a deep voice: "General Yang, when will you be able to take down Liyang City?"

It was Yang Xuanting who was in charge of leading the troops to attack Liyang City this time. This son is brave and powerful, and he is very skilled in martial arts. Hearing this, he said confidently: "Don't worry, Duke Chu, the siege equipment has been produced, and I promise to take Liyang City tomorrow." Next, grab the leader of Fei Yuwei and bring it to you, brother."

Yang Xuangan's expression turned pale when he heard the words, and he said: "Okay, then the Lord of the country will wait for the good news from General Yang." After speaking, he glanced at the generals and counselors present, and continued: "The Lord of the country is the Shangzhu Kingdom, and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu, the gold in his family is huge, he is both rich and noble, and he is an extremely high-ranking official. He has nothing to ask for, and now the prince of the country does not hesitate to take the risk of destroying his family and family to rebel against the Sui Dynasty, just to relieve the urgent needs of the world and save thousands of people In the midst of water and fire, I hope that all the princes will help you to take the Eastern Capital, and you will be crowned king and minister, and it will be just around the corner!"

All the people present excitedly said in unison: "We are willing to pursue Jiwei, the Duke of Chu!"
