Hearing that Zhang Xianzhong was approaching Yingcheng, the soldiers and civilians in the city hurriedly climbed the city tower, hid behind the battlements, and carefully observed the movements of the rebels outside the city.

However, the strange thing is that the rebels do not seem to want to attack the city, but only make a big fanfare, from east to west, around the city. Seeing that the righteous army was gradually moving away, the soldiers and civilians in the city thought that Zhang Xianzhong was just passing by, and immediately cheered, snapped their fingers to celebrate, and went home one after another.

In fact, the rebel army only walked to a place ten miles away from the west gate of the city and stopped, Zhang Xianzhong ordered the army to camp on the spot, and on the other hand, let people call Dingguo over.

"Father, you call me?" Dingguo broke into the big tent of the Chinese army and saluted Zhang Xianzhong with a fist.

Seeing Dingguo, Zhang Xianzhong immediately held the handsome case with both hands, stood up suddenly, walked in front of Dingguo in a few steps, and suddenly hammered his chest with a heavy fist, and asked with a smile: "Hehe, good boy, I haven't seen you for a few days and I have grown a lot!" How? It's not a bad feeling to lead alone! ”

Dingguo scratched his head shyly, and after thinking for a long time, he popped out two words: "It's good!" ”

"I heard that you also gave it a name, ...... What's it called? That's right, Long Xiang Battalion! It's a good name, mighty and domineering! Zhang Xianzhong clasped his hands on his chest, slowly paced behind Dingguo, and continued with a pleasant face, "Dingguo, there is something I think about it, and I think you are still clever, so I will leave it to you!" ”

"Obey my father's orders!" Hearing that a task was given to him, Dingguo changed his shy appearance just now, and instantly became excited.

"Don't be busy with your happiness first, if this matter is not done for Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will have to screw off your head as a night pot! Do you hear that? Zhang Xianzhong turned around abruptly and grabbed the back of Dingguo's neck with one hand.

"Father, children, when are you not at ease? Even if it is! Dingguo endured the pain and said with grinning teeth.

Zhang Xianzhong laughed, let go of his hand, walked back to Dingguo, asked Dingguo to come forward with his ear, and whispered to him, Dingguo nodded again and again when he heard it, and smiled happily.

After Zhang Xianzhong's order was completed, Dingguo immediately said loudly: "Father, don't worry, the child will do it!" ”

In the early morning of the second day, Dingguo took a thousand soldiers from the Western Camp, changed into rags and armor, and came to the outside of Yingcheng again.

Hearing that the rebels were back, the soldiers and civilians in the city became nervous again, and hurriedly picked up their own guys and went to the city to defend.

Who knew that this group of rebels only lingered outside the west gate and the south gate all day long, and there was no sign of attacking the city, seeing that it was about to get dark, Dingguo immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops back to the camp.

The soldiers and civilians in the city were all dumbfounded, this gang of rogues neither fought nor left, what did they want to do?

"I must have seen that we were heavily defended and scared!" In the dark, I don't know who suddenly said something.

When everyone heard this, they all nodded and agreed: "That's it, it's just a group of people called Hanako who can't eat enough, what are the rabble afraid of?" ”

With bursts of laughter, the soldiers and civilians in the city dispersed.

Who knew that the next day, just after dawn, Dingguo came again with the Xiying Righteous Army.

The soldiers and civilians in the city looked at the group of people below, and did nothing, just roasted a fire under the city, worked until dark, and then collected their troops and returned to the camp.

This lasted for three days, the weather was cold, the wind was blowing and freezing on the head of the city every day, the soldiers and civilians of Yingcheng were all complaining and exhausted, and Chen Shiyuan, the general in charge of the city defense, was even more furious, he thought that the group of rogues in front of him were dressed in tatters, no different from calling Huazi, just kill them out of the city by themselves, and a charge could kill them in pieces.

Thinking of this, Chen Shiyuan could no longer hold back the restlessness in his heart, and immediately gathered a thousand defenders and slaughtered out of the city.

"General, there's a bald head out of the city! Fight or withdraw? Seeing the officials and troops leaving the city, Qi Sansheng hurriedly ran over and reported to Ding Guoyu, who was sitting under the big tree to warm up.

"Birds! It's been so many days! Remove! Dingguo got up from the ground, patted the dust on his buttocks, and then asked everyone to throw away the weapons in their hands and take off the armor on their bodies according to the prior arrangement, and by the way, all kinds of gold and silver, pots and pans, scattered all the way to the ground, and then spread their feet and ran.

The officers and soldiers followed closely behind, chasing them out for several miles, but the soldiers of the Western Battalion, who had lost their armor and weapons, were as light as swallows and ran as fast as thieves, where could these officers and soldiers catch up?

The officers and soldiers simply stopped chasing, and turned around one after another, picking up the materials discarded by the rebels all over the ground.

At this moment, suddenly only a cannon sounded, and I saw countless Xiying rebels rushing over from all directions, and Dingguo also turned his horse's head and shouted: "You bald man, if you don't get off your horse and surrender, when will you wait?" ”

Chen Shiyuan was furious, and the plum blossom gun in his hand stabbed Dingguo in the chest.

Seeing the cold light flashing and the cold air pressing, Dingguo sat on horseback, leaned back by the trend, and grabbed the opponent's gun while dodging this stab.

By inertia, Dingguo suddenly sat up with a carp, picked up the saber and slashed towards Chen Shiyuan's neck from the bottom up.

Chen Shiyuan screamed badly and wanted to dodge, but the plum blossom gun in his hand was grabbed by Dingguo, and he forgot to let go in a moment of panic. But when the knife flashed, a bare head rolled to the ground.

Dingguo held the plum blossom gun in his hand, looked up and down carefully, and saw that the gun was about nine feet long, the whole body was translucent, and the tip of the gun was cold, making people feel as if they were in the cold winter in an instant, and the cluster of red tassels on the head of the gun was like a red plum blooming in the cold wind. Since following Liu Guoneng to practice marksmanship, Dingguo has searched for many spears everywhere, but he has never been able to find one to take advantage of, but he didn't expect to meet it here today.

Dingguo carefully rubbed the plum blossom gun in his hand, he really loved it, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "I often hear the master say, this plum blossom gun is also called the Zhangbaping barbarian gun, it is said that it was held by the ancient Emperor Yan, and was inadvertently obtained by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and gave it to him when he canonized Huo Qubing as the champion Hou, and it really deserves its name when I see it today!" It's a pity that such a famous gun actually fell into the hands of a mediocre person, and its reputation has been buried in vain all these years! ”

Dingguo then inserted the saber back into the sheath, held the plum blossom gun tightly with both hands, clamped the horse's belly of the "two buckets of gold", and continued to kill the officers and soldiers with the spear.

Since the lord was killed by Dingguo, the remnants of the officers and soldiers were even more unwilling to fight, and fled in all directions. After eliminating the official army outside the city, the Xiying rebels took advantage of the victory to pursue, rushed to the city with all their might, and immediately began to storm the city.

It happened so suddenly, the defenders on the city tower were all dumbfounded, and when they came to their senses, the Xiying rebels had already climbed the ladder to the city wall.

"The thieves have entered the city!" The soldiers and civilians in the city instantly fell into a panic, and when they heard that there were no rebels outside the east and north gates, many people ran to the city gate, smashed the bolt, and scrambled to escape from the city.

On the 10th day of the first month of December, Dingguo led the Xiying Rebels into the city, and he immediately ordered to post a notice to reassure the people, not to disturb the people, let alone kill innocents.

With the efforts of Dingguo, Yingcheng soon returned to its former order, and many people who fled out of the city heard that the rebels had not committed any crimes, and they also returned to the city one after another.

After settling the people in the city, Dingguo led people to quickly surround the county ya, only to see that the gate of the county government was closed, and no movement was heard inside.

Listening to the officials, since the city was broken, the county magistrate hid in the county government and never came out again, so Dingguo asked the officials to shout inside, urging the county to immediately give up resistance and open the door to surrender.

But who knew that after shouting for a long time, he didn't hear anyone respond, Dingguo was a little impatient to wait, and immediately ordered to knock open the gate of the county government.

When the gate of the county government fell to the ground, everyone was shocked to find that the magistrate was wearing a faded patched official robe with an official seal around his neck, and he had already committed suicide hanging from a beam above the public hall.

Hearing the news of Zhixian's martyrdom, the people in the city gathered one after another, and many people secretly wiped their tears. Dingguo was puzzled, and people inquired to know that this magistrate was originally a Qing official, and he has been an official here for more than five years, and he has been quite loved by the people.

"It's a pity!" Dingguo couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and immediately ordered his subordinates to put the magistrate down from the beam, and sent someone to search for a good coffin from the rich family in the city, collect his good life, and transport it to the outside of the city for burial.

After resting in Yingcheng for eight days, Zhang Xianzhong led the righteous army to leave Yingcheng and killed Yunmeng County, which was more than 60 miles away.

The army was on the way, and suddenly a scout Pegasus reported that there was no official army stationed in Yunmeng County, and there were only more than 3,000 township soldiers who had just been temporarily recruited.

Zhang Xianzhong laughed and said, "It's okay! Let the brothers speed up the march, and let's go to Yunmeng County for dinner today! ”

"Father, how should we fight this battle?" Zhang Kewang followed Zhang Xianzhong's horse and asked as he walked.

"And ask the bird, didn't you hear what the scout said just now? The rabble is just a rabble, and the whole army is pressed together. Without the pressure of Lu Xiangsheng's Heavenly Heroes and Zu Kuan's Liaodong Army, Zhang Xianzhong felt that the entire sky was extraordinarily blue.

Yunmeng County was soon surrounded by the Xiying Volunteer Army, and under the command of Zhang Kewang, the soldiers of Xiying rushed to the city with cowhides on their heads and smashed the city gate with smashing wood.

However, the resistance of the urban soldiers was extremely fierce, and they continued to drop explosives and stones from the city walls, and the rebels were repulsed in successive waves of attacks, leaving only mountains of corpses under the city walls.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Zhang Xianzhong had to order Mingjin to withdraw his troops, and the army retreated ten miles back to camp and set up camp for tomorrow.

"Can't take down just 3,000 township soldiers? What the fuck are you fighting? In the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Xianzhong was furious at Zhang Kewang and kicked the Shuai case over.

"Father's anger, today is the child's underestimation! Just give another day...... No! Semidiurnal! The child will take the city! Zhang Kewang was drenched in cold sweat, and he was busy patting his chest and assuring Zhang Xianzhong.

"Get the hell out of here! If you can't take Yunmeng County tomorrow, come and see you yourself! Zhang Xianzhong sat on the overturned handsome case angrily and said angrily.

"The child will not fail in his mission!" Zhang Kewang hurriedly agreed, and then ran out of the Chinese army's tent with a smoke.

Who would have thought that the next day, Zhang Kewang led his troops to attack for a whole day, but he still failed to capture the county seat. The military order is like a mountain, this time Zhang Kewang was really red-eyed, he jumped off the horse, took off his armor casually, and pulled out his saber to go into battle shirtless.

"General! Never! Seeing this, Bai Wenxuan hurriedly grabbed him and shouted loudly, "General, as the commander of an army, how can you be in danger alone?" ”

Zhang Kewang glared angrily: "Get out of the way for me!" If you can't take Yunmeng County today, how can Lao Tzu explain to his father? With that, Zhang Kewang pushed Bai Wenxuan away, and rushed forward with a knife.

Seeing that Zhang Kewang couldn't be stopped, Bai Wenxuan had to urge the army to follow closely and follow.

Zhang Kewang was shirtless and took the lead in climbing the escalator, but who knew that he was only halfway up when he was shot in the right arm by a stray arrow, Zhang Kewang was in pain, and his footing was not stable for a while, and he fell down from the ladder.

"Quick! Protect the General! Seeing that Zhang Kewang was injured, Bai Wenxuan hurriedly urged the soldiers of the Xiying camp to come forward to rescue.

Under the cover of the shield, everyone rushed up and quickly dragged Zhang Kewang, who was covered in blood, back.

"Leave me alone! Keep rushing! Zhang Kewang fell into a mess, and his mouth was still talking nonsense.

"Withdraw!" Bai Wenxuan had no intention of fighting, and regardless of whether Zhang Kewang agreed or not, he immediately asked Zhang Kewang to lift up and retreat to the camp.

For two days, not only did he fail to take Yunmeng County, but he injured Zhang Kewang, Zhang Xianzhong was so angry that he decided to personally lead the troops to attack the city despite the generals' obstruction.

Who knew that after eight days of fighting, Yunmeng County was still standing majestically, and Zhang Xianzhong finally despaired.
