    From Jinyang to Jiangzhou, a distance of 600 miles, Huang Mingyuan arrived in four days.  When Huang Mingyuan arrived at the Sui army's camp outside Jiangzhou City, he saw that the entire army was plain and every camp was white.

    Huang Mingyuan quickly entered the Chinese army's tent. There was a coffin in the tent, and in the coffin was Zhou Luohu, who had been dead for a long time.

    Huang Mingyuan couldn't help but feel sad. He stepped forward to hold Zhou Luohu's coffin and burst into tears.

    "Alas, brother Zhou Luohu, why did you unfortunately die when the army was victorious today?" Everyone hurriedly came forward to persuade Huang Mingyuan, who was already heartbroken.

    When everyone helped Huang Mingyuan up, they all knelt down.

    "General Manager, we failed to protect General Zhou, I'm sorry for you!" The generals cried one after another. Huang Mingyuan was even more annoyed. He stood up and kicked Duan Wenzhen at the front to the ground.

    Huang Mingyuan was so angry that he trembled, pointed at Duan Wenzhen and cursed: "Yuanqi (duan Wenzhen), you and tens of thousands of soldiers surrounded this frightened city, but you can't even protect the leader of the army. What on earth do you do? I really  I wish I could kill you all.¡±

    "General Manager, please calm down! I wish I could die on behalf of General Zhou!"

    ¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤

    Huang Mingyuan lost his temper and then managed to calm down.  This Tong temperament regretted Zhou Luohu's death, and also took the opportunity to frighten the ministries and gather military morale.  The most important thing is to show it to the court, the emperor, and Zhou Luohu's old subordinates. Huang Mingyuan is a person who values ??friendship and has always been like this.

    After everyone received this scolding and no substantial punishment, they felt relieved.

    Zhou Luohu died. If he is really investigated, the tens of thousands of soldiers under his command will be responsible. As for the soldiers around him, they will be beheaded and buried.

    Huang Mingyuan scolded everyone like this. In fact, it can be regarded as absolving everyone of their sins and making meritorious deeds.  Everyone was submissive at this time, even the rebellious bunch of Xiaoguo Army, they were very submissive to Huang Mingyuan at this time.

    Huang Mingyuan also asked people to set up sacrifices in front of Zhou Luohu's spirit to worship.  As a court official, even if he dies, he still has the proper etiquette and etiquette cannot be discarded.  Even though Huang Mingyuan's feelings had been released long ago when he entered the account.

    Everyone set up the mourning hall, Huang Mingyuan personally offered a libation, knelt on the ground, and read the memorial text: "Oh, it's announced that he died prematurely! Wouldn't it hurt people if he shortened his life? My heart is really aching, and I drank a glass of wine. You have a spirit, enjoy me.  Haochang!¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤Loyal heart, spirit of heroism; after five centuries of life, my name will be remembered for a hundred generations; I mourn you deeply, and my heart is full of sorrow; but my liver and gallbladder, my sorrow is never cut off. The sky is dark, and the three armies are sad;  The Lord is weeping; the friend is weeping. ¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤Woo-hoo announcement! Life and death are never farewell! Just keep your chastity, and it will be destroyed forever. The soul is like a spirit, to judge my heart: from now on, there will be no sound in the world! Woo-hoo, it hurts!  Fu Wei Shang Xian."

    After the sacrifice, Huang Mingyuan fell to the ground and cried loudly. His tears were like springs, and he was in constant mourning.  Everyone was deeply hurt by it.

    At this time, Zhou Zhongyin, the second son of Zhou Luohu, followed his father in the army to observe his filial piety for his father. Huang Mingyuan comforted him and made him take good care of him.

    Zhou Luohu¡¯s coffin was originally parked in the Chinese army tent. After Huang Mingyuan arrived, no one would make room for him.  Therefore, Duan Wenzhen built a similar large tent on one side as Huang Mingyuan's station and as the center.

    After Huang Mingyuan paid homage to Zhou Luohu, he declined the banquet hosted by Duan Wenzhen and others, and went straight to the big tent to prepare for the incident in Jiangzhou.

    "If you can't take Jiangzhou City, how can you come to see General Zhou?"

    At this time, it had been more than ten days since Zhou Luohuzhong's ambush. The Sui army's morale plummeted due to the death of their leader.  If it weren't for the lack of troops in Xue Cui's hands, the Sui army would have been defeated long ago.

    After Zhou Luohu died, Duan Wenzhen was elected as the commander-in-chief. However, Shi Xiang and others were not inferior to Duan Wenzhen in terms of qualifications and official positions. It was just a helpless move due to the large number of Xiaoguo troops.

    Duan Wenzhen also knew that the Sui army was in internal chaos at this time and it was inconvenient to attack the city. Otherwise, if there were mistakes in the command, he would be defeated again.

    Zhou Luohu's death can be said to be an accident, but the Sui army could not afford to be defeated.

    Therefore, in these days, Duan Wenzhen ordered the entire army to dig trenches along the siege of Jiangzhou City and build fences outside the trenches to trap Jiangzhou City.

    Although Xue Cui won a great victory, he did not know about Zhou Luohu's situation. After seeing the Sui army later, everyone wore mourning and felt miserable, thinking that Zhou Luohu should be dead.  However, Xue Cui was worried that Zhou Luohu was cheating his death and that he did not have enough troops, so he did not take the initiative to attack.

    When Huang Mingyuan arrived in Jiangzhou, the two sides were in this strange scene of confronting each other without any attack.

    "In a small Jiangzhou City, you Duan Wenzhen, Shi Xiang, and Xue Shixiong are all famous generals, but you frightened the other party like this. It is said thatHow to control the three armies after leaving.  You generals are ordered to break the city within five days.  "

    The generals take orders.

    Early on the next morning, Huang Mingyuan ordered five hundred soldiers to escort Zhou Luohu's coffin back to the capital. The whole army would then fight, and leaving him behind would easily damage the morale of the army.

    The people escorting Zhou Luohu's coffin walked for several miles. Suddenly, the horse stopped. The driver of the car stopped and there was a drifting wind.

    Everyone was shocked and confused. Only Huang Mingyuan stepped forward to support Zhou Luohu's coffin and said: "Brother announced that he hates the little bandits and has not quelled them? Such little bandits will be killed as soon as they are found in Mingyuan. There is no love and hatred."

    "The wind is still and the horses are moving, and everyone who sees it laments.

    After Huang Mingyuan sent away Zhou Luohu's coffin, he was not in a hurry to attack the city.  If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his weapons. If it is to attack a city, artillery and carriages are the best.

    Although Duan Wenzhen did not attack the city these days, he ordered people to build a large number of ladders, rams, manholes, siege vehicles and other equipment, just waiting to be used when attacking the city.

    Huang Mingyuan ordered craftsmen to build three hundred trebuchets for use.

    The craftsmen in the army are not good at making Fengzhou's cannons, and they are not even very good at making thunderbolt chariots.  Therefore, Huang Mingyuan asked everyone to build the simplest stone trebuchet, which can throw boulders thirty or forty steps.

    Jiangzhou City has no real defensive weapons and few soldiers, so there is no need for cannons.

    For three or four days, Huang Mingyuan did not attack the city. Everyone was anxious, worried that they would not be able to break the city within five days.  On the last day, Huang Mingyuan ordered people to push out these trebuchets, concentrate them on a city wall, and bombard them fiercely.

    Three hundred trebuchets, no matter how crudely made, are also sharp weapons.  Xue Cui ordered archers to shoot at the trebuchet in an attempt to destroy it. Huang Mingyuan mobilized three thousand crossbowmen to shoot at it.  So Jiangzhou's troops were defeated.

    After attacking like this for a day, in the evening, Huang Mingyuan suddenly ordered the army to attack.  The entire northern city gate of Jiangzhou had long been demolished by the Sui army. Coupled with the Sui army's sudden attack, the opponent was caught off guard and the northern city wall was quickly lost.

    The Sui army entered the city, Xue Cui was captured, and Jiangzhou, the last stronghold of the Han rebels, was restored.

    Zhou Zhongyin, the son of Zhou Luohu, dreamed that his father said to him: "I will fight tomorrow." His spirit was sitting with all the bows, arrows and swords, and they moved automatically for no reason, as if they were being held by people.  Jiangzhou City fell on this day.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
