Chapter 160: Stalemate

Zhou Haitong glanced at Master Gao coldly, and then spoke.

"Someone, pull this man down and behead it for public display, hang his head on the city tower, and let those rebel troops outside the city know that they will betray my Great Qin."

"No!"

The guards outside bowed in agreement, and several people walked into the room and pressed Gao Yunfu, who was stunned and in disbelief, to the ground.

And then dragged out.

Before Gao Yunfu could beg for mercy, he heard a miserable scream, and bloody heads were brought in.

……

"Damn! Damn it! I don't know what to do! ”

"This damn thief!"

The head of the Du family got the news that Gao Yunfu was killed, and his head was still hung on the head of the city, and his anger broke out instantly.

The stuffiness in his chest was difficult to express, and his face was gloomy and terrifying.

"Someone, give me a siege! Give me a siege! I'm going to kill all those thieves! ”

In his opinion, this Gao Yunfu is a talent given to him by God, and he will assist him in accomplishing great things in the future.

But he died tragically at the moment, how could he not be angry.

In his opinion, Zhou Haitong killed Gao Yunfu, which would ruin his great cause!

The Du family rebellion launched an attack again, and the army rushed towards the city wall, but it was still not unexpected, and it was defeated.

Even in this battle, a cousin of the head of the Du family was folded in!

This cousin of his was targeted by a rifled gunner at the head of the city, and with a shot in the head, half of his head was missing, and his death was extremely terrifying.

No matter how angry the head of the Du family is, in the face of the fortified city of Xingyuan Mansion, he can only retreat.

The army retreated sparsely, and the ground was full of dead corpses, whether it was the elite private army of the Du family or those who were coerced by the people, their eyes were full of despair and numbness.

Their casualties were so great that their hearts were filled with fear and anger as they watched their companions die one by one.

A wave of resentment quietly appeared in the army and began to spread!

……

The Du family rebelled in the camp.

At night, the camp was completely shrouded in darkness and dark.

Only the sporadic torches lit up from time to time, it was a patrol in the Du family's chaotic army patrolling the barracks.

From time to time, low whimpers, grunts of pain, screams, and weeping sounded from time to time in the camp......

In a barracks, several soldiers dressed in tattered cloth and with vegetables on their faces gathered together, their faces full of numbness and despair.

One of them whispered.

"I'm hungry...... I haven't eaten in days! ”

Someone next to him chimed in.

"Yes, I'm hungry too, so I ate half a cake today."

"Gua babies, don't say a few words, don't talk more, I was found by the patrolling soldiers, and I was careful to eat the whip."

An older voice rang out, followed by a series of coughs.

"Son, I want to go home."

The voice that spoke first spoke again.

"When the Xingyuan Mansion City is broken, we will be able to go home, and then each person can receive three cents of silver, cough cough cough cough ......"

The old man's voice sounded, accompanied by a continuous coughing sound.

"Master, can we break Xingyuan Mansion City? Today I rushed to the base of the city wall......"

It's just that before the voice was finished, the frightened voice of the young man rang out.

"You melon baby don't want to die, the soldiers on the city wall are all eating people, very fierce, if you want to die, rush forward."

"Isn't there no way for me, Zhao Xiu's dog mongrel forced me with a knife, if I don't rush forward, he will stab me to death."

The owner of this voice said helplessly.

His name is Li Maocai, and he is a fellow villager with the Zhao embroidery in his mouth.

It's just that unlike Zhao Xiu, who joined the Du family's private army, he is just a forcibly conscripted man.

In addition, he had a holiday with Zhao Xiu on weekdays, and he was also unlucky, and he was targeted by Zhao Xiu today and almost died tragically.

"Zhao Xiu, this melon baby, I didn't kill him back then, let him grow up in our village!"

The young man was a little remorseful, he shouldn't have been soft-hearted back then and didn't kill Zhao Xiu, who stole chickens and dogs, and left a disaster.

"Brother Maocai, what did you see when you rushed to the city wall, are the soldiers on the city wall really eating human flesh?"

A slightly immature voice next to him asked, and the voice was full of exhaustion.

Li Maocai's expression was slightly sick, and a frightened expression appeared on his face, and he said slowly.

"It's not okay to eat people, then where is what people can do, cannibalism is not livestock!"

"But those GIs are really powerful, and each of them is covered in thick iron armor, and their bodies are as strong as a bull......"

Li Maocai said that he recalled the scene he saw today, the soldiers of the Dang Capture Army were fully clothed and armored, and they stood on the city wall like heavenly soldiers and generals, where can the Du family rebel army compare.

"I think we won't be able to attack the city in this life, after all, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the imperial court have been defeated, let alone us......"

"Maocai baby, be quiet, don't talk nonsense, be careful that the patrolling soldier will drag you out and cut off your head."

The old man spoke, and in the darkness, there was a little bit of fear on his old face.

“……”

This is not an exception, in the camp of the Du family's rebellious army, such a scene happens from time to time, and countless soldiers are discussing the battle situation of the past two days.

Under the city of Xingyuan Mansion, the Du family's chaotic army, which was originally like a rainbow and seemed to sweep everything, was blocked from advancing.

The tall and sturdy Xingyuan Mansion seemed to drain the last drop of blood of the Du family.

In addition, the situation of other chaotic armies is also not optimistic.

Although they all rebelled, they soon swept through the village, engulfing many people.

Countless landlords and gentry came forward to contribute money and grain, as if they were loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, to resist the tyranny/government of the Great Qin, help the Great Song Dynasty to quell the rebellion, and recover the northwest.

But without exception, in the early days, they fought very smoothly, the grassroots organizations of Daqin were destroyed, and the security forces were defeated.

The countryside was breached, the towns were occupied, and for a time it was extremely smooth, and the prestige was earth-shattering.

However, it was not until the rebels they organized reached the capital city......

Everything has changed, and the cities that could have been easily breached, and the cities that could be lifted down with a single drum have become rock-solid, and even if they have countless casualties, they can't break these cities.

The Great Qin army, which was originally about to collapse at the touch of a button, seemed to have changed an army, and its combat power had increased by multiples.

The two sides are at a stalemate!

Those landlords and gentry could only keep bleeding themselves, forming armies, and providing armor and food......

In order to share the pressure, more landlords and gentry, wealthy businessmen and tycoons were involved......

There are more and more rebel forces on the rise!

But, the situation just can't be opened!

They contributed money and effort to organize an army, and in front of the elite garrison of the captive army, they broke their heads and bleed.
