Chapter 417: Capture Jinyang

The next day, the sky was dawn, and the 200,000 troops were in a huge formation.

There was a catapult in front of him, followed by a rushing cart and a crossbow chariot. Qing Cang and his troops were waiting for something after siege weapons.

He picked up the loudspeaker and started shouting: "Zhang Yan, come out for me, otherwise you will flatten your Lishi City!"

His tone was full of anger, and he had the urge to eat Zhang Yan. However, after a while, Li Shicheng did not respond, it was as quiet as death.

This made everyone confused.

Guo Jia said straight: "Hmm? This is not right. Why is no one in Lishi City responding?"

Zhao Zilong guessed: "Maybe I am afraid of our Chinese army? You must know that their Black Mountain Army has just been defeated for a while. I am afraid that I will not be afraid of coming out to fight us again!"

Zhang Liao said, "Commander, why not just blow the city gate open to see if they can go back!"

Looking at the devastated city wall, the entire north gate was knocked to pieces and no one had built it for a long time. If you hit it twice at this time, the city wall might collapse. It can be said that Lishi City is a waste city, with poor defense and no effect at all.

Qing Cang said straight: "It is feasible! All catapults are ready!"

Five hundred catapults were ready immediately and could start siege at the siege with just one order. The distance they were just within the attack range.

When the time came, Qing Cang ordered: "Capture!"

Boom boom boom boom

A large number of stones were thrown out and hit the city wall hard. The large area of ​​the wall began to fall off. It has to be said that the city wall of Lishicheng was really weak. When the outer layer fell off, I saw things on the inner layer, all the earthen walls. These earthen walls could not withstand the attack of the huge rocks. I believe that it would not take too long to open a gap.

"Commander, they didn't even come out to defend themselves, they were afraid they wanted to preserve their strength."

Zhang Liao smiled and said, "Staff Officer Guo, you are wrong. I don't think they want to make unnecessary sacrifices. Zhang Yan was hiding in the city wall and shivering."

"It's really possible, or they have given up on Lishicheng and headed south. You should know that the Black Mountain Army has many strongholds."

Zhao Zilong's words reminded Qing Cang, and he said, "Ten cars are ready for the city!"

Guo Jia was puzzled. "Commander, this is it?"

"I want to break the city and try it. Maybe they really may have escaped!"

If the entire army attacks, once it encounters an ambush, the loss will be significant, but if the car is just rushing to the city and breaking the city, even the loss will be minimal.

"yes!"

After a while, ten rushing cars rushed out, and they rushed towards the city gate to the north, with great momentum, and a large amount of dust was raised behind them.

Boom boom boom boom

A huge sound came from the city gate, and the car rushed to the city gate fiercely, and even Qing Cang in the distance felt a slight shaking.

The car crashed into the city gate and it was surprisingly smooth. After a while, the city gate was smashed.

After a while, a spy came back to report: "Report to the commander, there is no army guarding the city! There is no trace of the Black Mountain army. Only a thousand people came to guard the main city and did not leave."

He shouted, "What! It turns out to be."

Those thousand people could no longer constitute a threat. He thought to himself, they probably wouldn't take Xun Yu away, and they would only know everything when they arrived in the city.

Guo Jia said: "Zhang Yan is also a sensible person. He probably has heard the wind and has just evacuated south now. Are we chasing him or not?"

Qing Cang did not make a decision directly, but asked Guo Jia:

"What if Staff General Guo thought?"

"I thought that until now, going south would consume too much for us. Anyway, the world is ours sooner or later, and it is not a short time before. Moreover, even if we go south and occupy a large amount of territory, it will definitely cause a rebound from the Han court. Even if we occupy it, so what? They will come to grab it, and the distance we can reach is still shorter. Perhaps after the train is invented, it will be the time for us to unify the world."

What Guo Jia is talking about is what Qing Cang thinks, and everything has a threshold, just like occupying a city, their number is very limited. After this value, the financial and manpower you need to pay will also increase. And now the power of the Han Dynasty is still very powerful. When the powers take control, it is time for him to start unification. So what he wants to do is to develop everything that can develop, such as economy, technology, etc., and expand Huaxia City to a giant city. Even if other cities are occupied, as long as there is Huaxia City, it can be worthy of other cities.

He decided to develop well at the moment. The price of war was to regress the economy, and he did not allow this situation to happen too much.

In the future, Huaxia City will be like a paradise, with people living and working in peace and prosperity and strong military strength.

"Very good! The whole army entered the city to rest! And released news that the Chinese army had occupied Lishi City! All the aspiring people were welcome to join our army."

The purpose of his doing this was to recruit capable people. He also thought about whether he would send people to guard Lishicheng, because the city was too barren. To develop it was equivalent to injecting a lot of financial resources. It was also in a place that was out of reach of Huaxia City. Developing it was equivalent to making wedding dresses for others.

"yes"

The entire Chinese army flocked in. The so-called thousand defenders were just slaves left by the Black Mountain Army, as well as some literati.

As soon as Guo Jia entered the city, he went to look for Xun Yu, while Qing Cang asked someone to post documents everywhere. Most of the documents said that people who left Shicheng would welcome him to return to Huaxia City with him. He also said that capable people would be valued and would not have to worry about food and clothing.

It is extremely tempting for people to have no worries about food and clothing. In ancient times, most people were unable to eat enough or wear warmth. Qing Cang obviously knew how to hit the pain points of these people. Moreover, the Chinese Legion would stay here for three days, which was enough for them to recruit and organize.

As soon as the document was released, it caused a sensation among the people of the whole city. They rushed to sign up. In just one morning, they recruited 10,000 people who were willing to go with them. If they continued at this speed, more than 50,000 people would definitely go there in three days.

Of course, there is another more important thing, which is to find out the whereabouts of Hua Xiong. When he got Hua Xiong's address, he took Zhao Zilong and Zhang Liao to visit. Such good generals must be used by themselves, so that Dong Zhuo would not be greedy for the advantage.

You should know that Hua Xiong could not get a good official position from Dong Zhuo, and he lost his life while guarding Hulao Pass. Later generations really don’t deserve it. If he doesn’t die, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms will write more about him.

At noon that day, the three of them took a hundred soldiers to an outside of a weed house, which was where Hua Xiong lived.
