When the east gate of He Yin County caught fire, the soldiers mistakenly thought that there was a fire. It was the beginning of spring and the chill had yet to dissipate. Thus, there were very few soldiers who went to put out the fire. Dong Zhuo's soldiers who reached the east gate were quickly cleared out by Yang Rui.
Yang Rui, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and the other generals went up the city wall from the left side of the city gate tower. There was very little resistance along the way, so naturally, it couldn't stop them. After Yang Rui climbed up the city wall, he quickly took control of the left side of the city wall. He first took control of the south gate of He Yin City.
When the fire at the east gate gradually died down, Yang Rui immediately led his troops to attack the east gate and then the north gate. At this time, the second batch of soldiers had also reached the east gate of He Yin City under Chen Lin's lead. After Yang Rui ordered her to take 2000 soldiers to guard the city gate tower, he immediately used the Flying Carpet to go to the south bank of the Yellow River to continue to support the soldiers. At the same time, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao went back and forth on the city wall to attack the south and north gate tower.
The Iron Guards were very good at siege and defense. When Gao Shun took the north gate tower, Zhang Liao also took back the south gate tower. At this time, the east, south, and north gates of He Yin City were all in Yang Rui's hands. The defending army in the city finally understood what was going on. However, without a general to lead them, defense and dispatch were very problematic. No one knew how to defend.
Because the battle all happened on the city wall, there were no conflicts in the city. Thus, the defending army in the city didn't know how sharp Yang Rui's troops were. At this time, although the west gate was still under the defending army's control, there were no signs of people escaping.
When Yang Rui led the third batch of soldiers to the city wall, Yang Rui ordered Zhang Ning to lead some soldiers to guard the north gate. He and Gao Shun quickly took down the west gate of He Yin City. At this time, the defending army in He Yin City was like a turtle in a jar.
Moreover, when they took down the city gates. Yang Rui's troops all attacked from the top of the city wall. Their attacks were very sharp. The city gates were controlled by Yang Rui's troops before they could defend. Not a single person escaped from He Yin County. Of course, this was also because the defending army misjudged the situation.
Yang Rui ordered Gao Shun, Zhang Ning, Zhang Liao, and Chen Lin to guard one gate each, while he himself used the Flying Carpet to move more soldiers to the riverbank. By the time Yang Rui led the fourth batch of soldiers to He Yin County, the defense on the city walls had already stabilized.
............ and the bandit leaders.............................. . He Yang County and the north bank of the Yellow River no longer had Yang Rui's soldiers.
In order to prevent Li Jue and the others from quickly returning to help, Yang Rui still ordered the fleet to stay near Mengjin. He also sent Zhang Tian and the other ten junior and mid-level generals to watch over the fleet, patrolling the surface of the Yellow River around Mengjin to prevent Dong Zhuo's troops from crossing the river.
Zhang Tian and the other generals were left behind when he commanded the last batch of Iron Guards. At the current stage of the game, the Qi Zheng, Zhang Tian, and the other generals that Yang Rui had obtained had all leveled up to intermediate generals. If the conditions were right, these generals might be able to increase their strength further.
On the other hand, Yang Rui's troops had taken control of all the city gates and city walls of He Yin City, surrounding the entire county so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through. Taking down He Yin City was a piece of cake. They only needed to wait for Yang Rui to finish dispatching Dong Zhuo's troops in the city. However, when Yang Rui finished dealing with all the matters and returned to He Yin County, Chen Lin found out that the magistrate of He Yin County had already arrived at the east city gate and wanted to see Yang Rui begging to surrender. Chen Lin had already taken him down and placed him in a separate room at the city gate tower.
This wasn't the first time that Yang Rui had attacked a city. However, this was the first time that he had encountered someone begging to surrender. Moreover, this was during the Dong Zhuo Rebellion storyline. Under normal circumstances, such a thing shouldn't have happened. No matter what, Yang Rui still brought up the county magistrate of Heyin County and wanted to get to the bottom of it.
"Du Yang greets General Blazing Sun."
When the County Magistrate saw Yang Rui, he took the initiative to speak without waiting for Yang Rui to ask. "General Blazing Sun has bowed to the country. As the Deputy Alliance Master of the Dong Qunxiong Alliance, you have personally come to take my county. If I had known, I would have offered it to you to escape from Dong Zhuo's evil clutches as soon as possible! I hope General Blazing Sun won't blame me for coming late today. "
Yang Rui listened to the County Magistrate Du Yang's words. It seemed that they had already agreed, but he wasn't sure if what he said was true. However, this made Yang Rui even more curious. He didn't know why the County Magistrate Du Yang would act so strangely. Thus, Yang Rui didn't show any reaction. Seeing that the County Magistrate had the intention to continue speaking, Yang Rui also listened attentively.
After Du Yang's explanation, Yang Rui finally understood some of the reasons. It turned out that Du Yang had a nephew called Han Hao. He was currently working under the Hanoi Governor, Wang Kuang. After Dong Zhuo learned of this, he had sent Du Yang twice to discuss this matter. He wanted Du Yang to persuade his nephew, Han Hao, to come over. Otherwise, Du Yang would be punished!
Now that the ins and outs of the matter were clear, it seemed that Du Yang's choice to surrender was very normal. At this time, Yang Rui treated it as a guest. He politely chatted with Du Yang for a while before accepting He Yin County.
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Blazing Sun for successfully seizing Dong Zhuo's faction territory — — He Yin County (Medium City). You have received 20000 Storyline Achievement Points and 20000 Storyline Points."
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Blazing Sun for accepting He Yin County Magistrate Du Yang's faction. Based on the number of Du Yang's soldiers in the city, you have received 164,870 Storyline Achievement Points and 164,870 Storyline Points."
After Yang Rui accepted Du Yang's surrender, the System Notification of the Storyline Achievement Points and Storyline Achievement Points for seizing He Yin County also appeared. Du Yang's identity had changed to that of the Anti-Dong Alliance. The bright colors of the Anti-Dong Alliance were now the same as Yang Rui's.
Not only that, after accepting Du Yang's surrender, Yang Rui also received tens of thousands of Storyline Achievement Points and Storyline Points. According to the System Notification, the Storyline Achievement Points and Storyline Achievement Points should be calculated based on the number of surrendered soldiers.
"How many soldiers does County Magistrate Du have in He Yin County?"
Yang Rui wanted to figure out the calculation method, so he asked.
"Reporting to General Blazing Sun, Wu River Yin City originally had about 15000 soldiers. Today, we lost about a third of them, leaving about 10,000 soldiers."
Du Yang immediately replied. Moreover, Du Yang thought that Yang Rui wanted to do something, so he took the opportunity to express his attitude, "Although the number of troops in Wu River Yin City is not many, if General Blazing Sun needs anything, Du Yang and my subordinates will be at your disposal. We only ask that we can fight alongside General."
Yang Rui nodded his head in acknowledgment of Du Yang's statement while he calculated silently in his heart. Judging from the number of people reported by Du Yang, the merit points and points gained by surrendering soldiers should be about half of the merit points and points gained by killing soldiers of the same rank. Therefore, Yang Rui had a rough idea of this.
"I don't know what General Blazing Sun plans to do next. Du Yang hopes to help you in battle!"
Seeing that Yang Rui was deep in thought, Du Yang took the initiative to ask.
At this point, Yang Rui could see some clues. Although Du Yang had submitted to the Anti-Dong Alliance, He Yin County was still within the territory controlled by Dong Zhuo's camp. If Yang Rui left and left Du Yang behind, then Du Yang's situation in He Yin County would be very worrying.
"I don't know if County Magistrate Du has any good suggestions?" Yang Rui asked tentatively.
"May I ask if General intends to continue to advance and attack Dong Zhuo's territory, or do you intend to retreat and leave Dong Zhuo's sphere of influence?"
In fact, Yang Rui's guess was exactly what Du Yang was thinking. He was indeed worried that once he changed sides, there would be hidden dangers if he separated from Yang Rui. Therefore, he wanted to act together with Yang Rui to ensure his own safety.
"What if I continue to advance? What if I retreat now? "
Yang Rui was also interested in Du Yang's question. This He Yin County Magistrate obviously had something to say. Perhaps he had some special insights that could be of help.
"If General retreats now, the number of docks in Heyin County is not small. Therefore, as long as General leads the troops to defend Heyin County for a few days, Du Yang will definitely be able to get the docks to build enough transport ships. With his ability to accommodate all of General's troops, it won't be a problem.
Originally, Wu Heyin County was the county closest to the Yellow River; the neighboring county could not be compared to Wu Heyin. At first, when Dong Zhuo's men came looking for a boat to cross the river, Du Yang only said that he did not have a big boat, and did not give them any. He only gave them some fishing boats, ferries and the like. Although the neighboring county cooperated, they did not have a big boat.
If General wants to continue to advance, Du Yang is familiar with the details of the neighboring counties. He can also guide General and provide some useful information. Perhaps it will make General's journey easier. I will listen to General's wishes. "
Sure enough, Du Yang's following words indicated that he had already prepared a plan. Whether to advance or retreat, Du Yang had already prepared a draft.
"Oh? May I know which counties County Magistrate Du is familiar with? "Hearing Du Yang's words, Yang Rui's heart moved and he asked.
During the storyline mission, attacking the cities occupied by Dong Zhuo's forces was naturally the most effective way to earn achievement points. At the same time, he could also obtain some skill books that Yang Rui urgently needed. For example, a skill book for long-range archers. Yang Rui had obtained many of them when he attacked He Yang City and He Yin City.
"Reporting to General Blazing Sun, I'm not afraid of General's ridicule. I have always been at odds with the county magistrate of the county. In the past, it was this person who brought up the matter of my nephew Han Hao to Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo then ordered this person to supervise me.
