Chapter 1022: Ding Dingwei's Promise
"Rush!" The thousand black horsemen, who had been unable to wait for a long time, immediately shouted loudly, and then the sound of iron hooves on the ground rumbled, and the impact began.
The sound was loud, the earth trembled, and the five hundred soldiers of the Siamese army on duty who were sleeping were awakened by this strange movement, and they looked for the sound, and saw a scene that shocked them, the dark shadows of the night did not know how many, and then the silver light flashed.
People borrow the speed of horses, knives borrow horse strength, and between the swing of silver knives that are superior to ordinary iron tools, I don't know how many human heads fly, and I don't know how many weapons are cut in two in front of a photo.
The appearance of the black cavalry caught the Siamese army by surprise. The five hundred guards were cut down to the ground one by one as if they had been chopped melons and vegetables, and three hundred of the five hundred fell in just one face. Under the strong combat power, the remaining Siamese soldiers on duty have long lost the courage to fight again, except for holding their heads and running around, they are shouting for help, and even some of them are more timid, and they directly surrender on their knees.
The appearance of the black horsemen is like death in the night, and the powerful combat power they show is intimidating, and there is no trace of resistance at all.
The 500 prepared Siamese troops were so vulnerable, not to mention the other Siamese soldiers who had been tired from the siege for a day. Many people have been lifted out of their tents while they are still asleep, and they have no heads while they are still asleep.
With a thousand against four times as many enemies, the Black Riders showed their strength and ferocity. Every time the sword falls, the corpse of an enemy will be separated, and every time the horse gallops, there will always be red blood and the miserable sound of countless enemy screams.
This scene under the city soon alarmed the Cambodian soldiers on the city tower, and after the matter was reported to the ears of the provincial governor Sun Xiaoguang and the general Daen, they rushed to the top of the city tower, and at this moment they saw the scene of the Siamese army almost being wiped out.
"It's the Black Rider, it's the Dragon Guard! It's the sixth young master here! With the help of the only night vision telescope in the city, Sun Xiaoguang, the most knowledgeable governor, saw what was happening in the city, and then screamed with uncontrollable excitement.
can make a provincial governor lose his temper, and only Yang Chendong has such influence.
"Quick, open the city gate, let's go out to meet the sixth young master." The excited Sun Xiaoguang shouted loudly, so that General Dahn on the side couldn't believe it, is this still the Governor Sun who has always given people a very calm feeling?
At the urging of Sun Xiaoguang, the city gate was opened, and he took General Dahn and 3,000 Cambodian soldiers out of the city. At this time, the war outside the city had ended, and before even an hour had arrived, nearly 5,000 Siamese troops were wiped out, and none of them survived.
It may seem staggering to say, but a black rider only needs to kill four or five people, which is not a big deal.
Outside the city gate, someone went out of the city, naturally there was a black horse to report the matter to Yang Chendong, under the protection of Yang Er and others, Yang Chendong came on horseback, and saw Sun Xiaoguang who he knew by the light of the torch. At this moment, Sun Xiaoguang also saw Yang Chendong, and fell to his knees and shouted loudly from afar, "Hello Sixth Young Master, Long live Sixth Young Master!" ”
As Sun Xiaoguang knelt down, the people behind him also knelt
One by one, shouting Long live the Sixth Young Master. People in this era were deeply affected by the feudal ruling society, and it often happened that they fell to the ground.
"Get up." Yang Chendong has become numb to this, and it can even be said that he is a little used to it.
After Governor Sun Xiaoguang was approved, he got up, took a few steps forward and came to Yang Chendong, and said excitedly, "Sixth Young Master, have these Siamese troops been wiped out?" ”
"All of them are gone, and none of them are alive. It just so happens that you are here, so that the affairs of Lijingguan will be handed over to your Cambodian army to be in charge. Yang Chendong had a warm smile on his face. As soon as the words came out, General Dahn behind him immediately stood upright, and saluted a military salute in the same way, and then a large number of Cambodian soldiers went to the chaotic Siamese army camp in front. Governor Sun Xiaoguang was left behind, and before he could ask, Yang Chendong had already taken the lead in speaking: "This time, only I came in advance with a thousand dragon guards, and other reinforcements are coming here one after another, as long as I can withstand this period of time, the danger will go." By the way, what's going on here? ”
Hearing that only the sixth young master was coming with a thousand dragon guards, Sun Xiaoguang was shocked in his heart, there were five thousand Siamese troops here, and they were all killed by a thousand people. It is said that the dragon guard beside the sixth young master is invincible in flat combat, and he is the first in the world when he gets on the horse, it seems that he is not exaggerating.
The shock in his heart flashed, and Sun Xiaoguang answered Yang Chendong's question after organizing a language, "Sixth young master, the situation is not too good, in order to relieve the danger of the siege of Su Weng City, I sent 5,000 Cambodian soldiers, but unfortunately, they were wiped out outside the city before they even entered the city, and now only the deputy governor Ding Dingwei with 1,000 Cambodian soldiers and 200,000 people in the city are resisting, and life and death are uncertain." ”
"Oh? Hasn't Suong been captured yet? Listening to this answer, Yang Chendong asked in a little surprise.
"I haven't received any relevant news so far, and there is no radio station in the city, so I really don't know what the situation is over there." Sun Xiaoguang replied with a little embarrassment.
......
Yang Chendong and Sun Xiaoguang were concerned about the situation of Su Weng City, and here, the city tower was full of lit torches, busy figures everywhere, and Vice Governor Ding Dingwei was using the night time to strengthen the city defenses.
The previous Su Weng was broken by the Five-Star Army, and the city wall was also attacked by artillery, which was full of holes at that time. All thanks to the arrival of the Five-Star Army, after occupying the whole of Cambodia, the city of Suon became an important transportation town, and the city walls were reinforced, so it was still able to stand still in the face of several days of attacks by 100,000 Siamese troops.
Of course, this has a lot to do with Vice Governor Ding Dingwei staying here. In fact, on the first day of the Siamese attack, the defenders of the city were killed, and from then on, it was Ding Dingwei who had the final say, so some of his ideas were realized, such as borrowing the strength of the people to defend the city.
In ancient times, it was not without scenes of people and soldiers defending the same city, but most of the patterns that could be formed were formed by the army winning the hearts of the people. Since the occupation of Suweng City by the Five-Star Army, the land has been divided, trade roads have been opened, and a series of heavy taxes and slave hierarchies have been abolished, and many people have lived a world of life as before
like life.
When people's lives are better, they will naturally feel grateful, and they will be filled with more yearning and hope for the future.
It was at this time that the Siamese army came, which clearly wanted them to live their previous lives again, so the first people who did not agree were the local people. In order to defend the fruits of their victory, many people want to contribute their strength, but it is difficult to form a strong force because they have no name and no one to organize.
Ding Dingwei just appeared as the organizer, and at the same time gave the name of these thoughtful people as the deputy governor of Cambodia Province, so that the power of the people was excavated to the maximum, so that the original lonely city, the weak city became a nail, and it was fiercely pierced here, so that the Siamese regular army was helpless.
Fully playing the role of the people, Ding Dingwei first asked people to find the armory in the city, took out the weapons and armor stored in it, and distributed them to the adult men in the city who were acropolis, and then he opened the treasury in the city, and took out all the gold and silver stored in it, and handed over the gold and silver to the Yang Family Bank, which was built in the city not long ago, which made the steward of the bank here reprimand loudly.
Whether it is the warehouse in the city or the treasury of the Yang Bank, no one is allowed to use it without an order, otherwise it is a felony. Even if the city of Suong is captured, these things will become the spoils of the Siamese army, but as long as the city has not been captured, these things will be immovable. However, this rule was broken by Ding Dingwei.
"This gold and silver, the vice governor does not take a penny, it is used to reward the soldiers and people who defend the city, if someone asks about this matter afterwards, I will bear it." This is how Ding Dingwei answered the questions of the bank manager and the treasury officer.
The silver and gold were taken out and placed under the towers of the city in heaps for the two hundred thousand people of the city to see at will. When more and more people watched, Ding Dingwei stood on a high place and said loudly, "These silver taels are to reward the warriors who have made meritorious contributions to defending the city." Next, whether it is a soldier or an ordinary person, as long as you do something that is conducive to protecting Suweng City, you can be rewarded for meritorious deeds. ”
This was Dindingway's promise to all the people of the city.
With the benefits, the next thing is the name. Ding Dingwei sent people to post notices all over the city, which stated in detail that any people, no matter what ethnic group they were born or from where they came from, as long as they could pick up knives and guns and carry stones, they could sign up to defend the city. If you die in battle, you can pay a pension to your relatives, and once you have made meritorious deeds, you should report to the higher authorities afterwards, and reward them according to their merits.
The city of Suweng is a large city, with 200,000 people in the city, including Han people, grassland peoples, Korean peoples, people from the former Luzon Island and people from southeastern countries. When the notice was posted, Han men signed up first. As those who have immediate benefits, now that their home city is in trouble, they are the first to stand up without shirking their responsibility.
With the Han men taking the lead, more people began to sign up, including some women who were in good health, and they could also move the stones under the city with force. In response, Ding Dingwei waved his hand and issued his weapon as approved to allow him to enter the city to fight.
