After four days and nights of attack, the army still didn't break the city. At this time, the city wall had already become a river of blood and corpses were everywhere.

Trimmer said anxiously, "general, we've broken into more than 70000 people. If we go on like this, all our people will die." The cavalry are very powerful on land, but they can't be used to attack the city.

Yun Qing said without expression: "we have suffered a lot, so have they. I'm sure they won't hold on for long Now it's up to who can hold on to the end. Hold on and you will win the final victory.

Looking at Cui Mo's sad look, Yun Qing said: "this is the last difficulty. As long as we pass this difficulty, we will win. The city of pickaxe is the symbol of the northwest. If we capture the city of pickaxe, the overall situation has been decided.

Another day, nearly 10000 people and horses were damaged. Guan Tai was full of blood. Seeing Yun Qing, he said, "general, I can't stand the pickaxe city." This is like seeing the hope of the broken city.

Yunqing did not speak, just let people pass rice. After eating up a large bowl of food, he wiped his mouth and took Gao Song and others to the battlefield.

Yunqing went to the battlefield and immediately aroused the morale of the soldiers. The fact that the generals are on the battlefield shows that it is time for a decisive battle.

After fighting for six days and five nights, he finally attacked the city, but the northwest army also paid a heavy price. After 160000 people attacked the city, there were only more than 60000 people left, nearly 100000 dead and injured.

Standing at the top of the wall, looking at the corpses piled up on the wall and inside and outside the wall, Yun Qing's face was sad.

Yu Cong said, "general, there are still many things you need to decide." Although the cost is heavy, the result is good.

Yun Qing immediately converged and said: "call Yuan Ying to come here..."

Yu Cong was a little sad and said, "general, Yuan Ying is injured. He is seriously injured..." the generals who followed him were more or less hanged. He was also stabbed, but it was not serious. Yuan Ying's injury was the most serious.

Cloud Qing facial expression immediately a change, ask a way: "have life danger?"

Yu Cong shook his head and said, "no life is in danger, but it's very troublesome." If you hurt your lung, you will hurt the root. Let alone lead a war, you can't use your martial arts any more.

Yu Cong's face darkened and said, "that's Du Zheng." Today's results are all brothers, and he is not qualified to mourn here.

Yu Cong called Cui Mo and Du Zheng, who had a mission: "Du Zheng, take 30000 people to occupy Tongguan immediately." Tongguan is located at the Yellow River Ferry. It is located in the center of Shanxi, Shaanxi and Henan provinces. It connects Chang'an to Luoyang. It is the east gate of Guanzhong. It has always been a must for military strategists

Du Zheng hesitated and said, "general, we only have 60000 soldiers left. Can we have 30000 more?"

Yunqing said: "don't worry, I will expand the team quickly. You clean up and start tomorrow morning. " Now it's time.

In fact, Du Zheng always had a question in his mind and asked, "general, it's almost two months, isn't it? Why hasn't the imperial army arrived yet? " It's good for them that the Imperial Army doesn't arrive, otherwise they won't win the pickaxe city. It's just that there's something strange about it.

Yun Qing said: "he ye, Henan general, and Ji Xuan are different enemies. But if he didn't support Ji Xuan before, it doesn't mean that he doesn't send troops now. You should be more careful. " It is precisely because he ye and Ji Xuan are enemies that Prime Minister Yu transferred him to Henan as the general. Although Yu Boda was the commander-in-chief of Shu, now it's so cold and the mountain road, so the delay is long.

Du Zheng was worried, but seeing that Yun Qing looked normal, he put this worry in his heart: "general, I will guard Tongcheng well."

After a while, Guan Tai came in and reported something to Yun Qing, saying, "general, did Xie Li's family commit suicide?"

Cloud Qing pupil a shrink, say: "all commit suicide?" Xie Li let them lose so much. Even if he respected Xie Li, he would not spare Xie Li and his family. It's not that Yunqing is cruel, but that he should be ruthless to the enemy.

Guan Tai nodded and said, "not all the people in the Xie family, only the Li family. There are 18 people in Xie Li's family. They are all dead and their bodies have been found. "

Cloud Qing said: "thick burial!"

Ding Qingyu was waiting for Guan Tai outside and said, "I heard that the Xie Li family all committed suicide. Is this true?"

Guan Tai nodded and said, "it's true."

"Xie Li has only one son, but he has six grandchildren, seven grandchildren and a great grandson," Ding said

Guan Tai said, "how big is Xie Li's great grandson?" Xie Li let them die so many people, but also let general yuan seriously injured, not to destroy the Xie family, he could not swallow this tone.

"It's about two or three months," Ding said. General Guan, cutting grass does not remove roots, spring wind has life. " Now that you are the enemy of life and death, don't be merciful.

Guan Tai nodded and said, "you don't have to say that. However, I remember you said that Xie Junxiong was only 31 years old this year. Why did he have a grandson? " Age is not right.

Ding Qingyu said: "Xie Junxiong's eldest son has not been married. This is from Tongfang. It's said that the Tong Fang is the heart and soul of the Xie family. " As for the reason why the Jiejia people would allow the child to be born, it is not known.

Guan Tai couldn't help admiring: "Mr. Ding, it seems that you are really familiar with the people in Ho City." Even master Xie's general room and other things are known. This work is too meticulous.

Ding Qingyu said: "no one in Ho City is more familiar with me. If I help you, you will get more." This time is to actively recommend yourself to go out, rather than waiting here, silly waiting, there is no pie in the sky.

As soon as Guan Tai's eyes brightened, he said, "this is no problem. I'll go and tell the general now." It's a lot easier for him to have someone to help.

Cloud engine didn't refuse Guan Tai's request, but said: "Xie family is a famous family in Northwest China. If you don't have me, don't move for the moment." People like Xie's family should not be killed, but they should be brought together. Now, it's time to employ people.

Guan Tai has no objection.

Cloud engine reminds Guan Tai, said: "let him help you can, but you want to let people look at him." Yunqing doesn't trust Ding Qingyu very much.

Guan Tai nodded: "general, if he dares to have bad thoughts, I will take his life." Guan Tai believes that Ding Qingyu is not so stupid and will betray them at this time.

Yunqing takes Gao Song to see Yuan Ying. When he goes, Yuan Ying is still awake. Yun Qing asked, "how's it going? Are you better? "

Yuan Ying said with a smile: "it's OK, you can't die." I didn't die when I captured the barbarians in the north. It's not worth dying here!

Cloud Qing thinks this word is unlucky, say: "well recuperate, don't think too much."

Yuan Ying really didn't think too much, but after being injured for a while, he must be alive again. Yuan Ying said: "my subordinate Gao Rushan has been helping me deal with the prisoners before. He's more proficient in this, so it should be no problem for him to do it. "

Yun Qing nodded and agreed, but he had too many things, and he didn't have time to talk to Yuan Ying: "then you should take good care of it this time."

Ho City is the most prosperous city in Northwest China. There are many doctors here. All of them were invited to take care of the wounded. The doctor who treated Yuan Ying was he, who was very famous in Ho City.

Out of the room, Yunqing asked doctor he: "is general yuan's injury serious?" When Yuan Ying spoke just now, it was obviously not very good.

Doctor he said: "the general yuan injured his lung. Although his life is not in danger, he can no longer do strenuous exercise." Heart and lung are important organs of human body. If you hurt your lung, it's a fundamental injury.

Yun Qing's face darkened, which means that Yuan Ying can't lead the army to fight any more. Fortunately, his life is carefree, which is lucky.

Of course, the governor's office was the first one to be checked by Guan Tai. Ji Xuan fled, but basically everything remained. Money was more important than life. But even so, Guan Tai only seized more than one million pieces of silver and gold in the governor's mansion. Before, a magistrate's house seized more than that amount of gold and silver.

Guan Tai is not stupid either. He can be sure that Ji Xuan must have hidden the gold and silver: "take all these servants and ask them where Ji Xuan has hidden the gold and silver? If you confess honestly, let them live. If you don't confess, you'll cut them alive. " Follow Ji Xuan, what good things can there be!

To Guan Tai's dismay, none of these servants knew where Ji Xuan's money was hidden. Ding Qingyu said: "Ji Xuan raised so many private soldiers, and all the money he seized must have been used up."

Guan Tai glanced at Ding Qingyu with a sneer in his eyes and said, "do you think I'm stupid? How much does it cost to raise 20000 or 30000 private soldiers a year? How much money did Ji Xuan plunder in the northwest? "

Ding Qingyu said, "now I don't know how many private soldiers Ji Xuan raised."

Guan Tai didn't answer Ding Qingyu's question. Instead, he let a trusted subordinate take 300 people to guard the Ji family to protect the treasure. He continued to search other families.

Ho City is the most prosperous city in Northwest China. There are more officials and more rich people. There is no way to compare it locally. The amount of money seized is more than the sum of all before. This does not include the medicinal materials, cloth, grain and grass.

Cloud engine has too many things to deal with, so let Gao Rushan, who is promoted to take care of the captive. This time, it's different from before. This time, Yunqing doesn't give these people any more choices. Except for the injured, they can put them back home. He wants to incorporate all the others. This time, the loss is too great. We must replenish the team as soon as possible. Not only that, he also has to recruit.

Guan Tai came back to see Yun Qing in the morning. Looking at Yun Qing's dignified look, he asked, "general, what's the matter?" He guessed that it was likely that the anti rebel army of the imperial court had arrived.

Cloud engine said: "no, it's the North captives who have a change. It may not be long before the army of northern captivity will come to Yucheng. "

When Guan Tai heard this, he looked ugly: "it seems that the northern captives have got the news, and they want to take the opportunity to attack Yucheng."

If it's just the northern army, it won't be afraid, but the anti rebel army of the imperial court is expected to arrive soon. What he was most worried about was that it happened. It was also the cost of breaking the pickaxe city. It was too heavy, otherwise he would not have been so passive.
