Chapter 692 Expanding the Territory

Jizhou, Anping County

At night, with bursts of rumbling sounds, everyone in the city was awakened.

Chang Zhilan quickly led his troops over to inspect, and happened to see Sun Congyi leading a large number of men and horses in through the blasted hole. He was stunned.

But his long military career brought him back to his senses instantly, and he immediately ordered to surround the people.

Sun Congyi naturally also set up a defensive posture.

"Old Chang, surrender."

The corner of Chang Zhilan's mouth twitched. This man was so shameless. He used to call him General Chang, but now he calls him Lao Chang.

"We have blown up the four directions of southeast, northwest and north. You can stop me, but you can't stop Makino and the others."

What? Have Pingzhou soldiers entered from three directions in the city?

Chang Zhilan's captains, thousands of captains, centurions, and others looked at each other in confusion. Pingzhou was going to cooperate internally and externally, so what else could they do?

"Sun Congyi, when did you dig out such a secret tunnel?"

Sun Congyi laughed, "Do you think we just call the formation when we call the formation?" They were working overtime at night to dig the secret tunnel, okay?

"And we are digging four secret tunnels at the same time." He added.

Chang Zhilan's mouth twitched. He knew that the foundation under the city wall in Anping County was made of stone and was made thick. It would be difficult to dig it out from the ground, so they did not guard against this. Unexpectedly, such a thick wall from top to bottom was destroyed by something Pingzhou didn't know.

While he was observing the ruins, Sun Congyi glanced around, and then he quickly rushed towards Chang Zhilan.

The two young generals next to him moved almost as fast as him. The three of them suddenly took action and cooperated with each other to subdue them in one fell swoop.

Chang Zhilan's subordinates wanted to come to the rescue.

Sun Congyi sat on Chang Zhilan and locked his neck with his right hand, "Don't move! Don't move at all!"

Chang Zhilan's subordinates did not dare to act rashly.

"Old Chang, surrender. There is no future as a soldier in Dali." Sun Congyi advised him.

Chang Zhilan smiled bitterly, "If you want to kill or behead me, please do as you please."

It is impossible to think that catching him will make them all surrender.

Sun Congyi certainly knew how much responsibility Chang Zhilan would bear if he ordered his soldiers to surrender because he was captured.

"Don't believe it? Look."

What to see? Chang Zhilan and his soldiers didn't know why.

At Sun Congyi's signal, five people came out of the team, one of whom was holding a square paper bag.

The five people came to the pile of rubble they exploded and found a naturally formed deep hole. The other four people also pressed the big rocks on the side up.

When they were done, four of them walked back while gesturing for them to stay back.

Sun Congyi grabbed Chang Zhilan and ordered his soldiers, "Back off!"

His soldier hesitated for a moment and then did so.

"Back off again."

After they retreated to a safe distance, Sun Congyi called to stop.

The leader lit the fuse. Once it was lit, he was like an erupting leopard, scurrying to the side.

Why is he running so fast?

The soldiers on the Dali side were not sure what was happening when they heard a loud bang, their ears buzzed, and the sky was full of sand and rocks exploding in front of their eyes.

The scene was very dusty.

After everything calmed down, a large deep pit was exposed where it was just now, and several large rocks on top were gone.

The soldiers on Dali's side were collectively speechless at first, and then...

"This, this, this -"

"What kind of weapon is this? What is in that bag?"

"These big rocks add up to over a thousand pounds, right? Are they gone?"

Show off your power, show off your power properly!

But it is undeniable that this power is too scary.

"Old Chang, did you see that? We have explosives, you can't beat us." Sun Congyi continued to persuade Chang Zhilan.

"We are all Han compatriots, and we couldn't bear to use this thing on you. But we used it on the Xianbei people."

"Yanmen has been recaptured by our Pingzhou. I think it will be soon to come to Xinxing. It will be a matter of time before other places can take it back."

The news revealed by Sun Congyi shocked Chang Zhilan. Yanmen was easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it was captured by Pingzhou?

But after thinking about what I just saw, I no longer feel strange. Pingzhou has such weapons, shouldn't it be appropriate to capture Yanmen?

"Now, I ask you one last time." Sun Congyi looked at these old troops who had conquered the Confederacy. "Surrender or die, you choose one."

The soldiers of the former Southern Army looked at me and I looked at you, while Chang Zhilan simply closed his eyes.

The first to throw down his weapon was Chang Zhilan's lieutenant.

With the first one, there was the second one. Before long, all the soldiers of the original Confederate Army threw away their weapons and expressed their surrender.

Sun Congyi took someone to bring ropes and tied them up one by one, "The war is not over yet. Everyone, I will wrong you first."

Chang Zhilan and others surrendered, so naturally they had no objections.

After tying them all up, Sun Congyi left one-third of his troops to guard them for protection, while he took two-thirds of his troops to support elsewhere.

Half a day later, Anping County belonged to Pingzhou.

At dinner time in the evening, these surrendered soldiers also ate the same food, but they could not be equipped with weapons.

It was also at this time that Chang Zhilan learned from Sun Congyi that General Liu Mao, seeing that Anping County could no longer defend it, led his men to break out of the siege and go to the southwest.

Chang Zhilan was hungry, so she picked up the rice bowl in front of her and started to cook.

Sun Congyi laughed at him, "I advised you long ago that it's best to surrender, but you didn't listen. Are you okay now? Have you suffered a lot more?"

They had made three orders before, all of which declared that they were going to take it seriously.

Chang Zhilan sat on the ground, holding a bowl of rice in his hand and eating loudly, but it didn't stop him from rolling his eyes.

"I told you that Pingzhou had such powerful weapons..." During this period, he would not say how many soldiers under his command had fled.

Anping County uses a relatively mild method of recovery. In addition, facing the stubborn people, the Pingzhou army will also adopt radical methods to recover. In short, Jizhou and Pingzhou are bound to win.

Qin Heng's troops came to the city.

Yang Yingqin's persuasion was fruitless, and Qin Heng was unwilling to retreat.

They had retreated to Julu and could no longer retreat.

If Pingzhou wants to fight, then fight!

Even if the fight started, Yang Yingqin didn't think Pingzhou could win.

As for Qin Heng's declaration that Pingzhou was determined to win Julu, Anping, Qinghe, Pingyuan and other places, he didn't take it to heart.

After hearing this, I just felt that Pingzhou was arrogant and arrogant. He actually dared to carry two major forces on his own and be enemies of Dali and Xianbei at the same time.

In Yang Yingqin's view, if Pingzhou starts a war on multiple fronts, it will just wait to be dragged to death by logistics.

As long as they hold on, they can destroy Pingzhou and win the final victory.

But his thoughts were shattered the next day.

At that time, shortly after nightfall, the Qin family's army was still attacking the city, and he was not in the mood to eat, waiting for the Qin family's army to withdraw their troops.

At this moment, his deputy general rushed in with a look of disgrace on his face, his face full of fear, "General Yang, it's bad, the Qin army has broken the city!"

Yang Yingqin stood up in shock, "What?"

Julu has always been a battleground for military strategists. Before he withdrew from Zhongshan, he even sent people over to reinforce the city in advance. How could it be breached so quickly?

"The Qin family army had a very lethal weapon in their hands, and they used it to break open the city gate."

"It turns out that everything he said was true." Yang Yingqin said in a daze. Only then did he realize that what Qin Heng said when his troops came to the city was true.

The deputy general urged, "General Yang, the Pingzhou army is approaching. Let's leave quickly!" Now is not the time to investigate the cause.

They were stationed at Julu and relied on the danger of the city to keep out the Pingzhou army. Now that the city has been breached, they will definitely not be able to defend it.
