On the ninth day of the 11th year of Daye, outside the Xianyu City, Gaoyang County, a piece of Yingzha five miles away from Xianyu City. A large flag with the word Li fluttered on the high flagpole in the camp, which was the three thousand soldiers of the general Luo, the general of the Taihang Mountains and the general Li Chengli, the Tiger Ben.

Although there were only 3,000 soldiers, Li Chengli's name made Gao Tansheng and Gao Kaidao dare not go out to fight. Li Chengli was not only the first general under Marshal Luo's position, but also the second-grandson of General Li Benlei, the General of Jinwu Guard, the chief of staff of the General Staff of the Pojun Martial Arts Hall. Not only that, he was already the captain of the Yueqi cavalry when he was in the second expedition to Liaodong in his early years, and then he was the confidant general of Chen Kefu's Liaodong army.

Now that it is less than thirty years old, it has been awarded the title of Marquis of Anshi, General Hu Ben, and his subordinates have 3,000 light cavalry, which is the famous Feixiong Camp. Although the Liaodong Army was adapted several times, every battalion, division, and military name that had been used was not abandoned, and it has been changed to the most elite battalion of the most elite. Any unit that can obtain the battalion must be the most elite troops in the Liaodong Army.

Feixiong Camp is the Feixiong Division and Feixiong Army. Now the Feixiong Banner with wings on the ribs is organized by Li Chengli, a large camp of 3,000 people, and commands ten regiments of troops.

Li Chengli had already led his army to Xianyu City yesterday. If it weren't for General Luo's orders that he would only be responsible for blocking the rebels and not allowing him to attack the city, he might have taken the city, killed Gao Tansheng, and Gao Kaidao's Erbian.

The snowflakes all over the sky fell and fluttered, and soon covered the remaining snow that had not yet been melted.

There was no rain in heavy snow, but the whistling north wind was still blowing, and the people were about to turn into popsicles, and the clouds in the sky were even lower, as if they were directly pressing down on the city occupied by the rebels.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

In the gloomy snowy sky, bursts of horns suddenly came from the west of the city.

Li Chengli, who was patrolling the camp in the camp, looked moved and smiled at the lieutenants behind him, "It seems that our reinforcements have arrived. I don't know if it was because of the arrival of General Luo or my third brother. Let's go and greet him quickly. If it weren't for the heavy snow, they should have arrived in the morning. Just wait for them to arrive early and conquer Xianyu City early, so we don't have to spend the night in this snow tonight."

Li Chengli led his subordinates to ride on their war horses and go out to greet them. When he saw the light cavalry coming from the snow in the distance, and the high Li-character flag in the team, Li Chengli also smiled.

Needless to say, it is not Magistrate Luo who came, but his third brother Li Chengzhi.

Li Chengli and others rushed forward, and a captain ran forward and shouted, "General Li, General Li, of Feixiong Camp, came to greet him. Thank you for your hard work, brothers."

The troops in the front that arrived were separated from left and right, and a general led dozens of lieutenants to come. Behind him were two flag officers, one left and one right. The flag officer on the left hand was the flag of the general, the flag officer on the left hand was the flag of the general, and the flag officer on the right hand was a flag of the camp with a camp number embroidered. The black battle flag was embroidered with the word "Flying Cavalry". This was another elite soldier who was awarded the camp number.

"The Flying Cavalry Camp is ordered to come and reinforce. I'll be welcomed!"

Lee Seung-ri smiled and stepped forward, knocked his third brother's armor with his fist. Seeing Lee Seung-zhi march all the way, he couldn't help but say, "It's better to take a night off first, how about storm tomorrow morning?"

Lee Seung-zhi was even more impatient than his second brother, shook his head and said, "Brothers have been so far away, but I don't want to sleep in the snow tonight. Just attack the city. Why are you afraid of just a few chaotic troops?"

"Okay, let's kill this feeding!" Lee Chengli also said heroically.

Most people in the Sui Dynasty made two meals. The first meal was the morning meal, around Chen hour in the morning, that is, from seven to nine o'clock. The second meal was from three to five o'clock in the afternoon at Shen hour, that is, before dark.

There was a famous general in ancient times before a war, which happened to be breakfast, but when facing the enemy, he said, "Destroy this ceremonial food." Let the brothers follow him to fight the enemy and come back to have breakfast. As a result, the battle was indeed like this. He defeated the enemy soon and happened to have breakfast when he came back. So, destroying this ceremonial food was a very awesome sentence in the army.

It was snowing heavily and it was dark early. Looking at the time, it was almost time to have supper, but Li Chengzhi asked to kill this feeding, that was to rush back to have supper after the war, which showed how awesome it was.

The Li brothers have seen war scenes that are a hundred times more severe than before. Faced with a rebel composed of only tens of thousands of monks and refugees, they have two elite 6,000 light cavalrymen who have been awarded the camp number, and they really have nothing to worry about.

With a command, the flag was waving, and teams of command soldiers rode their horses back and forth in the snow, and the general's order was conveyed.

The war drums were beaten vigorously, and the horns were also blown one after another. When the horns were blown, the elite soldiers and horses in the army immediately surged with their blood and their fighting spirit rose. They carried their troops and came out to gather. The Li brothers did not discuss much when facing Xianyu City. They immediately attacked the West Gate and the East Gate.

Two troops soon gathered on the land outside the city covered with snow. Although the Feixiong Camp and the Feiqi Camp were both light cavalry battalions, they did not bring much equipment when they came to suppress the bandits this time, but the Liaodong Army had gunpowder weapons that all other forces had not yet possessed.

With gunpowder weapons, the light cavalry should bring a catapult cart that can be quickly disassembled and assembled, and the combat power will immediately increase. Especially in the face of the chaotic army composed of these monks and refugees in the city, which has no combat effectiveness.

Soon dozens of gunpowder projection vehicles were assembled, and they were shot out in front of the city gate, causing the bald monk who only held simple weapons on the city to gather together quickly during this period to sweat on their faces and their hearts to be felt.

Although Xianyu City is a county town, the city wall has been severely damaged after several years of war. Although the imperial court recaptured and repaired it, it only focused on repairing the city gates and the collapsed city walls. As for the damaged ones, it has not yet been able to fully repair them.

One poisonous gas bomb after another was loaded first, and a captain carefully corrected it and took the lead in firing out a poisonous gas bomb. With a whimper, the projectile car threw the poisonous gas bomb onto the top of the city. It exploded with a bang, and in an instant countless yellow smoke filled the air.

The monks who were mindful of the scriptures on the city wall saw the loud noise at first, and they were not sad and secretly excited to recite the Bodhisattva's blessing, thinking that they were not injured by the Bodhisattva's protection. But the next moment, the yellow smoke had already enveloped them. People were in the yellow fog and there was no visible thing. And the smoke could immediately make people cry and snot flow. They were not breathing smoothly and they coughed violently.

This kind of smoke that had never been seen immediately panicked many people on the city.

When the monks on the city were panicking, their only ears that still had a sensitive feeling were heard. They immediately heard one after another, followed by violent explosions.

Although this poisonous gas bomb is not very powerful and it is unlikely that it will kill people, if it really explodes around, it will still be dead and will be destroyed. Countless monks standing on the top of the city, covering their bloody wounds and running around in panic.

Not only can they not see the enemy when they stay above the city, but their eyes are gradually burning and their throats are even as if they are on fire. They have never faced such weapons and have no idea that if they use a wet cloth to cover their mouths and noses, they can reduce damage to the minimum.

One by one, they only knew how to roar and scream. Many people even fell off the city wall by stepping on the air. Not long after, the rioters who had not known to hide in the poisonous gas for a long time began to vomit and faint.

Li Chengli stood in the snow in the city, looking at the panicked figure in the fog on the top of the city, with a firm expression.

"Switch shotgun!"

"Swap shot!" After receiving the order, the messengers shouted loudly.

The shooters in the front row replaced the shells of pig iron, and the gunpowder was mixed with many shotguns of toxic iron nails and iron sheets. This kind of bomb could basically not kill people directly, but the countless toxic iron nails and iron sheets splashed out after the explosion were the most brutal. Such bombs were even more powerful when fighting in positions or in cities.

"emission!"

The shotguns were thrown out and shots were thrown to the city. More screams came from the violent explosion and the fire.

"The gunner stretches forward and continues to shoot shot!"

"The ladder is ready, the landing troops are covered with wet towels, and are ready to climb the city and fight in close combat!"

Simple ladders were dragged out of the camp, which was a simple ladder made overnight. Each soldier carrying the ladder was carrying a shield, and behind them were a larger number of light melee soldiers. They were all wearing light armor, carrying a horizontal knife in one hand and a round shield in the other, ready to go.

Although they were fighting a chaotic army, the combat methods of the Li Chengli brothers were remarkable, and they could be used as tactical examples in the Pojun Martial Arts Hall at every step.

After another violent shotgun strike, the projectile car has begun to extend the shotgun into the city.

Li Chengli waved his hand, and the messengers behind him flicked the flag. The ladder soldiers and the city-climbing soldiers had already prepared rushed down the city like cheetahs.

At a distance of two hundred steps, the soldiers who were sieging the city were not hit at all. They rushed to the city without any damage.

"Tree ladder!"

One after another, the light armor behind them carried a shield in one hand, and the knife was held in his mouth, and quickly climbed up the ladder like the wind.

Li Chengli, who was standing behind to observe the formation, did not relax at all. He waved his hand again, "The crossbowman team, the archer team moved forward and went to the city fifty steps to shoot and cover the siege!"

Teams of light cavalry moved quickly to the front of the city. They lined up in neat rows and took long bows from behind. This was not a cavalry bow, but a longbow specially used for long shots.

He took the bow and arrow and began to aim at the enemy soldiers who appeared on the top of the city.

"Free shooting, shoot!"

The bowstring sounded lightly, and the arrows were like locusts, leaving the string.

With such a long bow, the monks and refugees who did not even have leather armor, the arrows of the cavalry archers were almost completely fired, and the chaotic soldiers all fell down accordingly.

Under many attacks, the chaotic troops had no foothold on the city. More and more people fell down and buried corpses everywhere.

The melee soldiers on the cloud ladder also climbed to their heads, took off their knives, jumped up, jumped from the battlements, and flashed in succession, slashing left and right, with unparalleled momentum.

From the beginning of the siege, to the infantry leaping to the top of the city through the ladder, it took less than half an hour.

There were a series of shouts and killing sounds, and the rioters could no longer resist them. They did not care about the leaders of the battle behind and fled to the city one by one.

After a while, all the remaining chaotic troops on the top of the city were killed, and countless archers climbed up from the bottom of the city.

The soldiers of Feixiong Camp made a little rectification on the top of the city, and immediately formed small square formations to rush down the city with shields.

Soon after, the city gate was occupied, and the city gate that Baotiao was not hit, it was opened from the inside by the soldiers of Feixiong Camp. More Liaodong soldiers flocked in, and Xianyu City was broken.

As soon as the east gate was broken, the west gate was immediately broken.

On a dim afternoon, snowflakes were still falling, but even if the goose feathers were heavy snow, there was no time to cover the blood all over the ground and the corpse-hiding soldiers everywhere.

Snowflakes roaring all over the sky, hundreds of troops advanced from east to west of Xianyu City, and horse hooves resounded throughout the streets and alleys of Xianyu City. All streets were blocked. If it weren't for the soldiers walking back and forth on the street, the entire Xianyu would be a dead city.

As soon as the east and west city gates were broken, the Liaodong army quickly rushed to the north and south gates, and quickly controlled the two gates. Gao Tansheng and Gao Kaidao in the city were completely blocked in the city before they had time to escape from the city.

The snow light shone on the flickering epaulettes on the shoulders of Liaodong soldiers. The military boots stepped on the thin snow, shaking the bluestone pavement of Xianyu, making rhythmic dull echoes.

The people in Xianyu City hid at home in fear, and were frightened to peek at the cavalry's shaking swords through the cracks of the door. In just a few days, Gao Tansheng's monk soldiers defeated the officers and soldiers and seized the Xianyu City. Then the peasant army Gao Kaidao led the rioters into the city and robbed them in large numbers. But less than two days later, the imperial army arrived again. What they didn't expect was that the imperial court took the city faster this time, and it entered the city in less than an hour.

Feixiong and Feiqiu attacked the city, Gao Tansheng and Gao opened the road to retreat to the granary in the north of the city. This is the most solid place in the city, and the high walls around it make this place look like a city in the city.

The Li brothers had no sympathy for the rebels who dared to resist to the end. Before this time, General Luo had already told them that this time was not as good as before, but anyone who dared to resist to the end would be killed without mercy and wiped out on the spot!
