The beggar emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 117-You can't fight without a woman

Fangxian County is located more than 120 miles west of Baokang. The topography of the two counties is similar to the situation. Both counties are built by rivers and have gorges and hilly landforms, and both are under the jurisdiction of Yunyang Prefecture.

Starting from Baokang, the army headed northward for a section, to the confluence of Dahe Sancha, and then upstream along the river and marching westward for a hundred miles to reach Fangxian, while marching down into Baili, it was Gucheng.

Both sides of the big river are steep mountains and dense forests. The river winds westward in the canyon, sometimes wide, with gentle water flow, sometimes narrow, with rapid water flow.

There are farmland on both sides of the wide area. Villages and terraced fields can be seen on the mountainside. The layers are distinct.

The dirt road about two feet wide is rough and bumpy. Fortunately, it hasn't rained recently, but it's barely passable.

Along the way, Qin Yu was also secretly surprised.

This kind of terrain, the army is really frightened when walking in it, if one is not good, people will be chopped off and tailed, and the whole army will be wiped out.

Although knowing that Fangxian is impossible, no army would dare to ambush them, but there is nothing wrong with being careful. After all, Fangxian, there is a Fangxian Thousand Households Office.

Therefore, the eight thousand army was divided into three by Qin Yu, one thousand were in charge of exploring the way, and two thousand were in charge of the back of the palace, keeping a distance of more than ten miles from the Chinese army.

As for burning houses and destroying fields and threatening the people like Sun Kewang did, Qin Yu really disdains it. Such unwillingness and reluctance are the first people who fought a war.

In fact, he knew that the people of Baokang were only half caught by Sun Kewang, and the other half had been hiding in the mountains.

From where their army has passed, the people can see that the evil fruits planted by the old grandson can be tasted by him. After all, everyone is a rebel!

As they were advancing along the river, they did not climb over the mountains, but on the afternoon of the third day, the army arrived in the north of Fangxian County.

At this moment, the city had already been serious about it, as if facing a major enemy, the east and west gates were so closed, and the four fields had already gone to the building.

The guards on the wall looked at the crowded heads outside the city, and the loud and loud laughter, their faces were as gray as death.

The county magistrate, Wu Sheng, and the gentry were all frightened and nervous. After all, Baokang City was broken just recently, and they were really not sure that they could guard the county.

"My lord, the thief army is powerful, when will the reinforcements come?"

"Don’t worry, Liu Zhixian sent a quick horse to Yunyang ten days ago for help, and six days ago, the official also reported the news of Baokang City’s destruction to the governor. At this time, the reinforcements must have already set off. There are soldiers from thousands of families. I just need to work together and stick to it for three to five days, and reinforcements will arrive."

When the people heard the magistrate say this, their faces looked much better, but when they thought that Baokang had been breached in just one day, they lost their confidence.

As for the guards in Fangxian Thousand Households, everyone just glanced at them without much hope.

The fact is indeed the case. In addition to the dozens of Ding Kekan under the Shi Qianhu, the rest of the soldiers are worse than the young men in the city, and there is only one more landlord and gentry.

But Qin Yu ordered the army to set up camp outside the city, while burying pots for cooking, cutting wood to build siege equipment, and sending small troops to search around.

He didn't want to be like the old grandson, being caught behind by his own mantis, the oriole would undoubtedly cry to death.

When the county magistrate and a group of gentry saw the anti-thief outside the city, they were so busy that they knew that they would not attack today, so they returned after watching for a while.

That night.

The big camp outside the city was brightly lit, and Qin Yu was worried. He sent a young man to patrol the night in person. For the first time, he led a large army to attack the city. He was excited, careful, and meticulous.

Even so, there are still many heroes who sneak out of the camp at night and go to nearby villages to steal incense and jade.

In this regard, Chief Qin could only open his eyes and close his eyes, and fell asleep early, as long as he didn't bring him to the camp, he didn't know.

As for catching a few heroes to kill Liwei, I never thought about it. If it really does that, it will be a small matter for people to disperse and leave, and the mutiny will cause him to leave get out of class.

There is no way, when they don't have enough strength to deter these uncles, they can only temporarily let them mess around.

Anyway, if anyone dared to disobey King Hua's order on the face of it, that would definitely have to be killed, and it would be difficult for others to say anything.

...

The next day, after breakfast, the army began to attack the city. There was no nonsense, no conspiracy.

Eight thousand people were divided into eight batches, one after another, four hundred juvenile firearms, two hundred and one team took turns to cover.

For a time, it was all shouts of killing and fierce gunfire. A famous hero carried a ladder and held a shield, and rushed under the roots of the city wall. The young man shot and covered with a firecracker fifty steps away.

One wave just retreated, and another wave joined again, giving the defenders no chance to breathe.

It is undoubtedly ten times more intense than Sun Kewang's fight against Baokang.

However, there were no casualties.

Dashuai Qin held the handle of the knife with his face black as carbon. Five waves of attacks came down, and no one climbed the ladder to attack the city.

Almost always rushed to the root of the wall to set up the ladder, held the shield, shouted for a while, and when he heard the screams, he went home.

"If the order goes on, it will be cut if you dare to lose your shield!"

"Brother Qin, I'm afraid it won't work, or I promised that after breaking the city, whoever grabs the woman will go to someone else, or the brothers won't die!"

Niu Er also held the knife and walked to Qin Yu's side to persuade him bitterly.

"Isn't there a woman, just fucking stop fighting?"

Qin Yu cursed, then waved his hand and said, "It's almost noon. Let's call for gold and retreat first. Let's talk after lunch!"

"Well, let's have dinner, I'm really hungry!"

Niu Er touched the round belly and nodded with a wry smile.

Hearing the sound of gold mingling, the more than a thousand heroes who had just rushed halfway stopped immediately and turned around.

Smelling the smell of rice, everyone's belly screamed, and there was something like a foreigner who just squeezed out, one after another, for fear of late and no food.

"Boss, it's not easy to rely on these guys to attack the city, or I will take my brothers up in the afternoon!"

Qin Tie looked at the big guys in the camp who were devouring them, with contempt and disdain in his eyes. Qin Wu and Qin Zhong also snorted to themselves.

"Well, but you can't do it alone, you have to pick out another two hundred people who dare to die."

Qin Yu came to the high platform as he said, ordered someone to knock the gong twice, and then announced loudly: "The king is going to choose two hundred warriors to come out and climb the ladder with my guards in the afternoon. These two hundred will wait for the city. After the break, all of them will be promoted to the first level, and they will also become the guards of the king, and everyone can choose a woman for blind dates, but if they dare to retreat and diarrhea when attacking the city, they will all kill without mercy. Does anyone want to sign up?"

When the words fell, the surrounding guys immediately fry the pot, pass ten, ten pass a hundred, not long after the entire camp learned that King Qin wanted to pick a guard.

Although most people don't think it's worth working hard for a lady, as for being the guard of King Xiaohua, it doesn't matter if they eat or drink now, but a small number of people are eager to try.

These people are almost all former personal guards of Sun Kewang and the four leaders. They used to be superior, but now they are inferior to those veterans, so they are naturally unwilling.

"When I sign up, I am afraid that people will die."

"Count me in."

This does not follow the lead of a man with a big cow, and more and more people sign up.

Not long after, Qin Yu picked out more than two hundred men who were full of evil spirits.

SP: Two changes a day. Everyone looks anxious. In fact, I am even more anxious. I don’t know if I can go to Sanjiang next week. If I can, I’m afraid I’ll have to stay on for another week. Please bear with me and get to this point. It’s really not easy. Every week I’m worried about pushbacks, I’m recommending and I’m worried that I won’t be able to advance because of bad grades, and I’m worried that I’ll be procrastinated for too long after I’ve been promoted. Human. Well, I recommend two books written before. If you are interested, you can go and read it. One is called "The Warlord Master" in the late Qing Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, with more than two million words. A copy of the "Anti-Japanese Sniper System" during the Anti-Japanese War is of course closed, so you need to go to Baidu to search for a copy, ha ha!
