"That's all it takes!" Xie Qi nodded sullenly, now he has no other way, Jiang Weak's side must have been prepared: "Allocate some more people and horses!"

"Uh, we have seven hundred elites here, isn't that enough?" Several rebel thieves looked at Xie Qi suspiciously, thinking that he was making a fuss.

"Not enough, do as I say. Xie Qi shook his head.

Elite?

Before fighting Jiang Qiao, he also felt that these bandits brought from various cottages could be regarded as elite, even if they were not inferior to the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, otherwise when he robbed the prisoners, it would be impossible to defeat the county soldiers who escorted him.

It's just that sometimes, this person has to die more than others, and the goods have to be thrown away, when he led these elites to besiege the government, he already felt that the so-called elite was a little unworthy of the name, and a good commander had a critical impact on the combat effectiveness of an army, and on his side, he didn't seem to be able to come up with any commander who could compare with Jiang Weak, and he couldn't do it himself, let alone others.

Even though there are hundreds of people around him now, several times more than Jiang Weak, Xie Qi still doesn't have much confidence that he can defeat Jiang Weak with these horses.

"Whew!" Although a rebel thief general didn't understand why Xie Qi was so cautious, he still learned to sing like a general, and then sent someone to gather people.

Soon, a large number of rebel sect members poured over one after another, and I am afraid that even Xie Qi never thought that he would summon so many people with one order.

Looking at it, the vacant land and streets around the warehouse are all the heads of Wuyang and Wuyang, it is not spectacular, originally Xie Qi just wanted to recruit one or two thousand people, even if Jiang Qiao is powerful, he does not think that Jiang Qiao can use the little force in his hand to be one as ten, after all, this is the treasury, not the city wall.

But now, at a glance, I can't see how many people have been recruited, in short, it will be full in all directions, and Xie Qizhi frowned when he saw it, how could he attract so many people at once?

"Why are there so many people?" Xie Qi asked the doubts in his heart.

"My lord, last night there were constantly assassinations of our generals, and many of the troops lost their leaders and were gathered together by other leaders. The rebel general said, "But there are so many people, it should be enough, right?"

Xie Qi nodded and smiled: "It's okay, the more the merrier." ”

In the past, Han Xin ordered troops, wasn't it also the more the merrier? Xie Qi felt that what he had learned over the years should come in handy.

"Lord, how many people are there?" On the tower of the treasury, looking at the head of Wuyang Wuyang, Dong Ping felt that his legs were a little weak.

Jiang Qiao ignored him and carefully checked the formation of the rebel army, Xie Qi stood in the crowd and couldn't observe it, but Jiang Qiao was condescending, but he could see it clearly.

As far as what I saw in front of me, there were three or four thousand people, and there were constantly people coming from all directions, but Jiang Qiao suddenly smiled: "This battle is worry-free." ”

"Lord, are you ......" Dong Ping looked at Jiang Wan in astonishment, and wanted to ask, Lord, are you crazy.

It's just that now, the rebel army gathered outside no longer knows how many times more than theirs, ten times is definitely more than that, what is this worry-free? Where does this optimism come from?

"Fang Yue!" Jiang Qiao ignored Dong Ping's astonishment and turned his head to look at Fang Yuedao.

"Humble duty!" Fang Yue took a step forward and bowed.

"All of you go up to the city, and with two or three county soldiers and seven county guards, prepare to defend against the enemy. Jiang said in a deep voice.

"Wow!" Fang Yue agreed expressionlessly, not discouraged at all because the enemy was outnumbered.

Dong Ping still wanted to say something, but the people in the treasury had been quickly mobilized by Fang Yue, although they were not trained, but according to what Jiang Wan said, using veterans to lead new soldiers, even if they couldn't be well-trained, they still gathered in a very short time, Yeluqi, Yelucai, and Meng Dan began to distribute weapons with people, and Fang Yue began to teach some basic methods of defending the city.

Outside the treasury, Xie Qi had already begun to command the rebels to attack, but for more than an hour, the rebels failed to start a decent attack, and were driven over several times, and before they could get close to the wall, they were shot back by a random arrow.

The most important thing in this treasury is materials, Jiang is not stingy, including the surrender army are armed to the teeth, after repelling several waves of rebels in a row, this group of surrendered soldiers has lost the cowardice that they hesitated before, at least they will not be cowardly, plus under the leadership of the veterans, they patrol the city wall one by one, but they also have a bit of momentum.

Outside the treasury, Xie Qi had a feeling of wanting to scold, at this moment he felt more clearly the importance of losing the treasury, in the face of Jiang Qiao's bow and arrow, they didn't even have the ability to fight back, they could only fight for their lives to go up, which made the rebels who already had little morale even more demoralized.

It took another two hours for a large number of rebels to be sorted out, Xie Qi sent his own personal guards to supervise the battle, driving the rebels to attack, and the people outside the wall had already scattered in a hurry, looking for a place to hide, but they did not flee too far, observing the battle situation in a nearby place that they thought was safe, to see if these last official forces that sealed the well could hold this treasury.

"Most of the rebels in this city should be here, Zhang Wu!" Jiang Wan stood on the city tower, looking at the slowly approaching rebel sect, and turned his head to look at Zhang Wudao.

"Here!" Zhang Wu hurriedly came out.

"Go back to your house at once, and let Duke Zhang contact the gentry in the city, gather the families of the various prefectures, and drive these rebels and traitors out of the city. Jiang Wan took out a map from his arms and looked at Zhang Wudao: "Remember, don't have to deal with it, although there are many rebel sects, but they are unknown, there is no military discipline at all, once they are frustrated, they will definitely be in chaos, then they only need to intimidate and drive them to the main street, waving flags and shouting all the way, this side will attract their main force, and when the time comes, with the sound of arrows as the signal, this side will send troops to counterattack, and the rebel sect will be blasted out of the city, remember, in these places, you must send more people." ”

Zhang Wu carefully looked at the direction Jiang Qiao was pointing to, kept it in his heart, and finally nodded: "Rest assured, I will convey this matter to my father, as for whether my father agrees......"

Last night, the rebels suddenly attacked, Zhang Wu was on duty in the county office, although he was worried about the situation at home, but he couldn't kill back alone, and then the Zhang family mixed in the rebels came to report the news and contact Jiang Wan, which made Zhang Wu breathe a sigh of relief, but in his heart, he naturally wanted to go home more, but the situation was critical, and Jiang Wan couldn't just care about his feelings, so he never mentioned it.

"You just need to tell Zhang Gong about this, and as for whether to retreat from the enemy with me, it is up to Zhang Gong to decide. Jiang Miao handed the map to Zhang Wu and said in a deep voice.

"Humble your resignation, let you take care!" Zhang Wu saluted Jiang weakly.

Jiang Wan looked at the bottom of the city tower, the rebel thieves had already dragged their "rush" over, and one by one the ladders set up the wall and wanted to rush up, although it was easy to say, but at this moment, Jiang Wan did not dare to really underestimate the enemy.

The rebels lacked bows and arrows, although there were many people, but in the distance, they were suppressed to the death, and some bloody men were close to the wall, and they would throw the weapons in their hands directly as javelins, but the power was much less.

The siege is not too particular, and although it will cause a certain amount of pressure in a short period of time, after a long time, the momentum of the drum is removed, and the people become more scattered.

Under the leadership of the veterans, the troops on the city wall continued to use Changge to knock down the ladders on the wall, without the suppression of long-range weapons, these troops gradually became handy after the initial panic, looking at the rebel sect members who rushed to the edge of the city wall under the drive of the overseers, and were constantly shot, Jiang Weak suddenly had a feeling of beating zombies in his previous life.

Rebel thieves were constantly rushed up by the warlords, and they were shot or pushed down to their deaths, blood staining the walls, converging into muddy water on the ground, and quickly drying up.

Don't say that those surrendered troops, many county guards and county soldiers vomited while fighting, and under the bloody breath, even if they followed, they were looking for veterans of the northern and southern wars, and they couldn't stand it.

These rebel thieves were definitely the weakest and even the worst among the enemies they encountered, so miserable that even these enemies had some sympathy, Jiang Liang naturally felt pity, but there was no expression on his face.

People are responsible for their own choices, since they have chosen this path, they can only be responsible for it, these people are pitiful, and how many innocent people are implicated because of them, in this troubled world, who is not pitiful?

"Are you done vomiting?" Jiang Qiao walked up to several soldiers who were vomiting and said coldly.

"Make ...... Envoy!" Several people hurriedly stood up straight and looked at Jiang Weak.

"When you have finished vomiting, go up, and now you have pity on them, and if you let them come in in a while, no one will pity them. Jiang Miao drew his sword, beheaded a rebel thief who pounced, glanced at a few people coldly, and walked towards the other side.

"Lord, why are these thieves so weak?" Dong Ping trotted to Jiang Wan's side, he had seen the border Han army fighting with the rebels, such a scene, in addition to the fact that the number of people was a little scary, now I look at it, as Jiang Wan said, they are all rabble.

"It's also a group of poor people!" Jiang Wan shook his head, such an attack is impossible to attack, Xie Qi is afraid that his pants will lose this time.

"Since the lord has mercy, why don't you try to surrender?" Dong Ping looked at Jiang Wan suspiciously, since he was able to recruit more than 700 rebels and traitors in the treasury, he should also be able to surrender these defeated troops.

"There are some things we can't do. Jiang Qiao glanced at the rebel army that had begun to retreat and shook his head.

Since the rebels broke out, although it is a pity that they have not been able to get the maximum benefit from this, but now that the curtain has opened, Jiang Qiao needs more people to pay attention to him, he wants to let those families owe him favors, since the family is not enough, find a way to make up for it, and when his connections are enough, he can naturally eliminate many defects of the family.

What's more, if the rebels don't make trouble, how can they have an excuse to send troops to win military merits?

After attacking for two hours, the rebel army finally began to retreat, not that Xie Qi wanted to retreat, but that those rebel troops were afraid of being killed, in the final analysis, it was a group of civilians who were not even militiamen who took up arms, even under the supervision of the war team, they still failed to cause much damage to the defenders.

And during this time, the rebel army that died under the wall of the treasury was not even as good as the supervising team sent by Xie Qi, and the physical strength of the two-hour attack was gradually exhausted, Xie Qi's choice to rush forward was a mistake, too many people's physical strength was wasted in meaningless running and pushing, and in the end, many rebel troops could not keep up with the physical strength before they touched the city wall.

And there are many people, but under the rain of arrows of the defenders in the front row rushed back and forth several times, each time they wanted to retreat, but they were squeezed back by the companions who rushed up from behind, unable to effectively rest and replenish their strength, these people were also the most unlucky, almost dancing with death.

Xie Qi couldn't describe his mood in words at the moment, although Jiang Qiao's sudden increase in people and horses surprised him, he didn't care, what made him most uncomfortable was that so many people attacked a warehouse, and in the end, the enemy didn't die, but the people who were hacked to death by his own people were almost piled up.

Even if he lacked actual combat experience, Xie Qi could see that it was impossible to break through the treasury today.

"My lord, it's not a good thing!" Just when Xie Qi hesitated whether to temporarily suspend the army, and after recuperating his physical strength, he would regroup and attack the granary, a thief would stumble from a distance, bringing a message that made Xie Qi feel even more depressed, and at the same time, a ringing arrow roared through the air from a distance, and the sharp screaming sound spread throughout the city with a strong penetrating force.
