Chapter 634: The Bear Slaughtered the City

After the Yan army captured Chengtian Army's garrison city, the army marched straight in, burning, killing and looting all the way. Shiai County and Shouyang County were all looted, and thousands of civilians who were unwilling to withdraw were massacred. The Shiai County Magistrate could not withdraw and committed suicide. Both county towns were burned.

Three days later, 200,000 Yan troops arrived at the city of Taiyuan.

At this time, Guo Ziyi's 80,000 army had gathered in Taiyuan City, and another 50,000 militia troops helped defend the city. Guo Ziyi was firmly buried in the walls and cleared the fields, hanging high in the suspension bridge, preparing to fight a protracted battle with the Yan army to defend the city.

According to An Lushan's strategic deployment, An Qingxu's 200,000 army was the main force to attack Hedong, while Li Guiren led 50,000 troops from Fukouxing for the southern route, feinted Luzhou, and restrained Li Siye's Anxi army.

Just as An Qingxu led the main force to send troops, the 50,000 troops of Li Guiren's troops in the south also passed through Fukou Pass and entered Hedong. Unlike the last time Li Guiren's army headed north to Shexian, this time, Li Guiren's army advanced directly westward and attacked Lucheng County.

Li Guiren was a leader of the Xi people. He led his subordinates to the Tang Dynasty to change the name of Li Guiren in the Han Dynasty. He was obedient to the Tang court on the surface, but he was fierce and cruel in his bones. He always thought about plundering wealth and women from the Central Plains. Li Guiren was eight feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and was extremely powerful. He was a powerful general under An Lushan. He was nicknamed "Man Bear" in the army.

The generals in An Lushan's army all have different nicknames. In addition to Li Guiren being called the Human Bear, Shi Siming was also called the "Falcon". His hair was yellow and sparse, and his eyes were time-consuming, hence the name.

Cai Xide is called the "wild wolf" because of his cruelty and cruelty, and Tian Chengsi is called the "wild fox" because of his cunning and wiseness.

Li Guiren had a 50,000 army under his command, mainly the Heluohe and the Hu people in the Six Prefectures, which were composed of the Khitan and the Xi people. He was one of the most powerful and cruel troops in the Yan army. Among them, the Nine Thousand Yeluohe Army was also one of the Iron Cavalry of Youzhou, and was the elite of the Yan army. Yiluohe was a hero in the words of the Xi people. An Lushan attached great importance to this Yeluohe army and publicly called them his own fakes.

Therefore, although Li Guiren only had 50,000 troops, his strength was the most elite army among the Yan army's divisions.

An Lushan allowed his generals to recruit soldiers by himself, but Li Guiren was unwilling to recruit soldiers. He believed that the Han people were weak, and recruiting their subordinates would only make them lose their reputation and weaken their combat effectiveness, so he still maintained the organization of 50,000 troops.

Another characteristic of Li Guiren is that he uses war to support his army. Whenever he arrives at a place, he indulges his soldiers to plunder and rape. This way to boost the morale of the army. Although it is very cruel, it is indeed very effective for his army.

Before sending troops this time, Li Guiren promised all the soldiers that they would plunder ten women and bring them back to the tribe. This was just taken back. As for the women who raped and killed on the spot, they were not included.

Li Guiren has two deputy generals, one is the general An Shouzhong, and the other is the Turkic Ashina Congli. Both of them are enemies of thousands of people and can be called his right-hand man.

Li Guiren led a large army to advance westward. Half of his army was cavalry, and the advancement was extremely fast. He divided his troops into three groups. Ashina led 10,000 cavalry to the front army, he himself led 20,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry to the central army, and An Shouzhong led 10,000 infantry to the rear army.

When he was twenty miles away from Lucheng County, a report soldier rushed to report: "Report to the general, the Lucheng County Magistrate led a hundred old men out of the city to surrender. How to deal with it?"

Li Guiren stared forward in a hurry, and two words burst out from his rock-like lips: "Slaughter of the city!"

In Li Guiren's mind, there is no reason to surrender and not kill. He only has the difference between eating satiety and hunger. He can temporarily let go of it when he is full and eat when he is hungry. Now, his soldiers are all hungry and their eyes are green.

The county magistrate of Lucheng County never dreamed that the humiliation of his leading a county elder kneeling down had no effect. They knelt naked on the official road outside the city, holding seals and ribbons in both hands, while the officials and elders behind him were holding pottery pots containing mud. He only begged the Yan army to spare the people of the city for their sincere surrender.

But what he welcomed was overwhelming cavalry and murderous swords. The Yan army cavalry rushed over like a mountain collapse and cracked the ground, whistling past them. The swords slashed the heads of the county magistrates. More than a hundred old men begged and shouted sadly, but the war horses ruthlessly kicked them over and trampled them to death. Tens of war horses rushed past them, and their bodies were trampled into meat mud by horse hooves.

Lucheng County suddenly became a city of hell, and tens of thousands of men and women in the city became lambs to be slaughtered. When Li Guiren's central army arrived, Lucheng County had become a purgatory on earth.

The 40,000 army began to rob and rape frantically, screaming and crying everywhere, and bodies with human heads cut off everywhere. The more beautiful woman was forced to lie naked on the Hu bed under the threat of bloody battle knife, and suffered from nearly a hundred Hu soldiers' squatting, but she still couldn't escape death in the end.

For five full hours, the cruelty and lust of the Khitan and the Xi people swallowed up the entire city.

Li Guiren did not enter the city. His camp was stationed outside the city. As night fell, teams of soldiers returning home successively returned to the camp. The horses were carrying large bags of goods. The women were tied up on horses. Most of them were torn dresses. Many women were still naked. When night fell, the bonfire was lit. Groups of soldiers surrounded the fire, barbecued and drank, making a lot of noise. They forced hundreds of stolen women to apply makeup to dance and cheer them up. When they saw it, they directly pulled the women into the crowd.

According to the rules of the Khitans and Xi people, the best spoils were given to the leader. Li Guiren's tent was filled with gold, silver and jewelry and more than twenty young and beautiful women.

Li Guiren picked five of the most beautiful women, and the rest of them were rewarded to his personal soldiers. In the tent, more than 300 powerful soldiers surrounded more than 20 women with naked upper body and lewd smiles. More than 20 women were like lambs to be slaughtered, unable to survive or die, and were tied to a bench and ravaged by the soldiers.

"Mr. Jun, I have served you more than 30 people. I really can't stand it. Please give me a rest!"

A woman cried and begged, but she received even more crazier ravages.

In the corner of the camp, there was a short boy with a beautiful face and curled up like a cat. No soldier went to ask him. Everyone knew that this was left for their personal soldiers to enjoy. The boy's father was the county magistrate of Lucheng County. He was captured with his mother. The woman who had just cried and begged was his father's concubine, and now he fainted.

Although the boy was short, he was already twelve years old. At this time, he seemed to hear his mother's crying, as if he was next door. He strongly restrained his grief and anger, quietly hid the dagger dropped by a soldier under him, and moved his body little by little. The personal soldiers in the tent were staring at more than twenty naked women, and no one noticed him.

At this time, a soldier walked up to him, with his back facing him, just covering him. He took advantage of this opportunity and rolled out of the gap under the tent, rolled into the next door tent, and bumped into a wooden box.

He slowly cut off the rope that bound his hands with a dagger. At this time, he heard his mother's crying. He quietly raised his head and was stunned. His mother was hanging upside down in the middle of the big tent with her bare body.

There were three other women hanging in the air like a black bear. In the middle of the tent, there was a man like a black bear. He was huge, covered in hair, loose hair, naked lower body, and wearing iron armor on his upper body, like a demon, extremely ferocious. The boy was so scared that he almost fainted. At this time, the man had tortured a woman and strode towards the boy's mother. The woman was so scared that she trembled all over. The man grabbed the woman's legs and pinched two buttocks with a grin, "This woman is fat, mature and tender, I like the most!"

He suddenly stretched his legs from behind to the sides, and only the sound of the bones breaking was heard. The woman screamed and fainted.

Seeing that his mother was tortured, his lips were bitten and blood flowed down the corners of his mouth. At this time, Li Guiren cursed fiercely, "Damn, are Han women so fragile?"

He felt a little overwhelmed, sat on the wooden box, gasping heavily. He never expected that there was a boy hidden behind him, and his thick legs almost touched the boy's face.

The boy was so scared that he almost shouted, but at this moment, a dark and long haired calf appeared in front of him, as thick as a wooden stake tied with a horse outside the tent.

Seeing that his mother was covered in blood, a huge amount of anger surged in his chest. He wanted to take revenge and avenge his mother!

He lay on his side on the ground, staring at the hairy legs in front of him. He remembered what the doctor said when he treated him: "No matter how tall a person grows, his roots are on his feet. Two meridians penetrate the body. If the meridians break, the body will collapse."

He slowly raised his dagger, suddenly shouted, and stabbed his Achilles tendon. Li Guiren had just stood up and suddenly felt a piercing pain in his right heel. He screamed in pain. When he turned around, he saw a thin boy with his hatred and pale face. The boy screamed again, lifted the dagger and stabbed him in his lower body.

Seeing that his right heel was covered in blood and was so painful that he could not stand up, Li Guiren couldn't help but get furious. He grabbed the boy, twisted his neck like a chicken, and the boy died tragically on the spot.

Li Guiren took two steps, and he felt weak all over. He fell to the ground with a 'plop', and his right leg was no longer strong. He was shocked and shouted loudly: "Come here!"

Li Guiren was injured by a boy in Lu County, and his right tendon was cut off, making him unable to ride a horse to fight again, and became a useless man who could only walk with a cane.

Li Guiren was extremely angry and threw An Lushan's order to prevent him from going deep into Hedong. He ordered the army to go south and head to Shangdang County, Luzhou Prefecture, wherever he passed was razed to the ground.

At this time, Li Siye's Anxi Army was still in Jinzhou, and there was a 6,000-man Northern Tang garrison in Shangdang County, led by Tian Ganzhen, the general of An Lushan who surrendered to Li Qing'an.

Li Guiren swore to capture Tian Ganzhen with his own hands and hand it over to An Lushan. Just when he was forty miles away from Shangdang County, news suddenly came that the Anxi general Wei Boyu led 10,000 Anxi army to capture Fuxi City at the entrance of the Hedong entrance of Fukou Xing, and cut off Li Guiren's retreat. Another Anxi general, Xi Yuanqing, led 10,000 troops to march into Zezhou, and joined the eight thousand defenders of Zezhou, blocked another Baixing retreating to Hebei.
