Chapter 360: Dog eats dog
The Jin family was already in chaos, and when Jin Dezhong returned home, his second uncle Jin Liangchen was anxiously pacing back and forth behind the wall.
"Dezhong, how's it going?"
As soon as he saw Jin Dezhong coming back, Jin Liangchen hurriedly rushed over.
The rest of the Jin family also gathered around, wanting to know the situation outside.
Jin Dezhong retreated from all the subordinates around him, leaving only Jin Liangchen and a few other clansmen, and then lowered his voice and said: "Second uncle, Linfen City will definitely not be able to hold it, let's break through tonight at night, because ...... Because the Qin thief came to our Jin family. ”
"Ahh
Jin Liangchen's face changed.
Jin Dezhong didn't have time to explain, and then said: "Second uncle, please take a thousand taels of silver and go to the south gate in person, and let Liu Fangbai, the guard at the south gate, open the door for us tonight." ”
"Third brother, you go to Zhaoyuan Temple and recruit all the scoundrels there, including the people from Liu Da'er's Axe Gang, and say that there is work to do tonight, only half an hour's work, five taels of silver per person."
"Five taels of silver?" A young man next to him stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
"Big brother, in the past, we invited those puffers to do things, and it was only three or five dollars of silver per person, how did we give five taels of silver this time? Too much, right? ”
Jin Dezhong shook his head: "Now everyone knows that there is a thief army outside the city, and no one is willing to sell their lives if they don't offer high prices." Don't worry, when they get out of the city, they don't know how many people will die, and few of them will get the money. ”
"Okay then."
"Fifth uncle, you go to the county government and tell Wang Zhixian that he also has a part in Zhou Dafu's affairs, and let him quickly find some government officials and go out of the city with us tonight."
"Fourth brother, you go to the east of the city and give the Chow Tai Fook family ......"
Speaking of this, Jin Dezhong made a motion to wipe his neck.
"Okay."
"And the rest of the men waited for them, and immediately gathered up the softening, and brought only the silver, and as for the grain...... Transported to the West Street warehouse and burned it, it can't be cheapened surnamed Qin. ”
"Okay."
Under the command of Jin Dezhong, the people of the Jin family got busy.
At the same time, the Zhao family, which was several streets away from the Jin family, also began to get busy.
Linfen City knows that because of the grain business, the Zhao family and the Jin family do not deal with each other, and Zhao Wengui has always wanted to rectify Jin Liangyu, but he just has no chance.
……
Chengdong Triangle Street, Zhou's house.
Jin Deren kicked open the door of the Zhou family with a group of fierce and vicious family members and rushed in like wolves.
It didn't take long for Jin Deren to jump and scold in the courtyard of the Zhou family.
Chow Tai Fook is gone, and the more than 20 members of the Zhou family are all gone.
……
The bombardment of the Guan Emperor's army continued until the first day of the lanterns, and the northern city of Linfen was bombarded with holes.
At night, Emperor Guan's army set up camp outside the four gates of Linfen, and was not afraid of the night attack of the defenders in the city, and only blocked the way out of Linfen City.
There was nothing to do all night, but when the third watch arrived, a flame suddenly burned in the south gate tower of Linfen City.
There seemed to be gunpowder in the tower, but only a few muffled sounds of "boom boom" were heard, and the flames of the tower burst into flames.
When the city tower caught fire, Luo Ba only observed for a moment, and then immediately ordered the whole army to attack, advancing to a mile away from the city gate, completely blocking the passage out of the city, and attacking immediately if there was a chance to enter the city.
He knew that there were only two reasons for the fire in the city, one was that some people wanted to break through the city at night, and the other was that some people in the city rebelled and set fire to welcome the imperial army into the city.
In the north of the city, Qin Chuan walked out of the camp tent with a blanket and yawns, and looked at the sky-high fire in the south.
"The whole army is assembled and ready to attack the city."
"Yes!"
……
In the south of Linfen City, Jin Dezhong's face was like gold leaf, and he looked at the raging fire on the city tower in a cold sweat.
Behind him were more than 100 clansmen of the Jin family, more than 300 Ding Nursing Houses, more than 500 temporarily invited scoundrels, and more than 100 officials led by Wang Zhongjun of Linfen Zhixian County.
In front of him, there was a city gate with burning wood rolling down.
"Jin Gongzi, how can this be?"
Wang Zhongjun jumped down from the carriage and moved to Jin Dezhong's side with a round fat belly.
Jin Dezhong shook his head: "Someone doesn't want us to break through." ”
"Who? Who will it be? ”
"I don't know, it may be Zhao Wengui, it may be the prefect Zhou, or it may be someone else."
"Huh?"
Wang Zhongjun's face turned pale, and his hands and feet began to tremble.
At this moment, the streets on the east and west sides suddenly appeared with torches, and the chaotic footsteps of the army could be heard.
"No, they're going to kill us!"
Jin Dezhong's face changed greatly.
As soon as the words fell, I heard a loud shout suddenly from the east: "Bold and spies, dare to set fire to chaos and lead Qin thieves into the city!" ”
Almost at the same time, another shout came from the street in the west: "Ahead is a Qin thief and a spy, don't be killed!" ”
"Yes!"
A murderous roar rang out, followed by a strange "bang" sound.
"No, it's a bow and arrow!"
As soon as Jin Dezhong's words fell, there was a buzzing sound of breaking the air, and hundreds of families and scoundrels behind him suddenly let out a miserable scream.
Immediately afterwards, a gunshot rang out, which was the three-eyed gun of the defenders of Linfen City.
Jin Dezhong's people were caught off guard, and they had no power to fight back at all, and the scene was completely a one-sided massacre.
"Cho Wen-gyu! Zhou Chenren! You despicable villains, my Jin family is inseparable from you. ”
Jin Dezhong's eyes were red, and he tore open his throat and roared loudly into the darkness in the distance.
In the distance, several people wearing bright official uniforms or brocade robes were looking at all this with cold eyes.
"Lord Zhou, collaborating with the enemy and plotting rebellion, but it is a big crime to be beheaded all over the house, the people over there, only a few people are left, and the others ...... Ahem, let's rectify the Fa on the spot. ”
"The Jin family looted grain and cloth from Linfen, but they only cheapened the people in Zhangjiakou Fort and Xuanfu, and made no contribution to Linfen."
"Lord Zhou, don't worry, when I am in charge of the trading of his several lines, I will leave 20% for you."
Several people were talking in a low voice, and suddenly a horse galloped towards the north of the city.
"Lord Prefect, it's not good, it's not good, the Qin thieves are coming to attack the city."
"Huh?"
One of the senior officers in the middle of the pack shuddered violently and almost fell off his mount.
"Where did you get it?"
"The north gate, the east gate, and the west gate, there are thieves approaching outside the three gates."
"This ...... Many troops from the three gates have been transferred to strangle the Jin family, how can this be good? ”
"Lord Zhou, the top priority is to take down Jin Dezhong first, and send him and the Jin family's money and food out of the city to the Qin thieves, only in this way can there be a glimmer of life."
"Yes, yes, hurry, kill all the people of the Jin family and those scoundrels, quickly, as well as Wang Zhongjun and those servants, they are a big crime of rebellion, don't count as killing!"
"Yes!"
……
Qin Chuan's siege methods were very simple, the artillery suppressed the head of the city, the shield cart advanced, and the blocking tower was built two hundred steps away, so that Huang Liuxi and other marksmen climbed the blocking tower and killed the defenders at the head of the city, while the rest of the people pushed the shield cart and carried the ladder to continue to advance.
The main direction of attack was the north gate, and the east and west gates were only feints to attract the attention of the defenders.
Due to time constraints, he only built twenty scarlet towers, but it was enough.
The north head of the city had already been bombarded, there were few places to stand on the head of the city, and the defenders who barely climbed to the head of the city were soon killed by the fire of artillery and rifled guns.
Emperor Guan's army met only sporadic resistance, and soon set up the ladder at the head of the city, climbed up one after another, and then ignited the earth-shaking thunder, threw it over the city, and threw it down into the city.
The defenders who lined up to meet the enemy in the city were unlucky, and their flesh and blood were blown up by the earth-shattering thunder, screaming again and again, and quickly losing the ability to resist.
Soon, the Guan Emperor army at the head of the city captured the city and opened the city gates.
At this point, Linfen fell.
