According to Wu Song's order, the new forbidden army drove out of Dongjiamiao Town and marched slightly to the southeast, but did not see any mountains.

I saw a huge stockade in front of me, surrounded by high walls, like a city that was not too big or small.

Seeing this village, Wu Song couldn't help but think of Zhangjiabao in Qinghe County.

The original Zhangjiabao was the first tyrant of Qinghe County. He made a big fuss in Zhangjiabao and rescued Pan Jinlian, so he and Pan Jinlian depended on each other and came to Bianjing.

The stockade in front of me is comparable to Zhangjiabao, with the same extraordinary momentum and the same tight defense. It is conceivable that the people in the village are just like Zhang Dahu in Qinghe County, extremely rich and dominant.

Zhang Desheng came back from watching in front of him, his face was full of doubts, and he said to Wu Song: "My lord, the scouts have understood that this village is called Lijiazhai, and it used to be called Dongjiazhuang, just because the Dong family recruited a son-in-law surnamed Li, and the son-in-law killed his father-in-law's family and occupied this village, so he changed his name." ”

Wu Song ordered: "Send a team to surround this stockade!" ”

Zhang Desheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Aren't we going to attack some mountain?" Why is it that now we are going to attack this stockade? ”

Wu Song's face sank. Zhang Desheng immediately felt panicked, didn't dare to ask more, and hurriedly went to carry out the military order.

At this time, Wen Huanzhang also came to see Wu Song and asked if the army was going to attack Lijiazhai. After knowing Wu's affirmative answer, Wen Huanzhang was speechless for a while.

Wu Song was very interested, and asked Wen Huanzhang rhetorically: "The new forbidden army was ordered by the imperial court to encircle and suppress the bandits in Liangshan, but now I changed the direction of the march and came to attack a civilian village, don't you ask why?" ”

Wen Huanzhang said lightly: "Since ancient times, it has been the norm for the army to go out and invade the people. At present, the army of the Great Song Dynasty went out to fight and suppress bandits, often plundering the people, and some even cut off the heads of the people as the first level of merit for killing the enemy, and such a situation often happened. The new forbidden army has strict military discipline along the way, and it has not committed any offence against the people, but now that I heard that Tong Guan wants to withhold military rations, the general wants to ask this Li Jiazhai to borrow some food, which is much better than those practices of killing people and risking merit! ”

Wu Song couldn't help but smile and said, "Mr. Wen is really smart and free!" You're right, but you've only guessed part of my thoughts! ”

Wen Huanzhang said: "Does the general have other plans?" ”

Wu Song said: "Soon, Mr. will know!" ”

At this time, a team of people from the new forbidden army, led by the striker Wang Huan, had quickly besieged Lijiazhai. Lijiazhai was suddenly besieged by a large army, and was very panicked, and quickly closed the gate of the village, and all the walls around the village were on the Zhuang Ding. This posture is actually intended to resist the army!

First, it can be seen that Li, who killed his father-in-law's whole family and occupied the village, is indeed an arrogant character, and secondly, it can also be seen that the strength of this Li Jiazhai is probably not under Zhangjiabao in Qinghe County back then. Sanlai also shows that in today's Great Song Dynasty, land annexation and domineering tombs are indeed becoming more and more serious, and land overlords like Zhangjiabao are everywhere.

On the gate of Lijiazhai, a group of people surrounded a big man in armor, and there were a few people behind the big man, but it was Zheng Er and the five tigers of Dongjiamiao who ambushed Lu Zhishen in Dongjiamiao Town. It seems that they were recruited by Li Jiazhai and became Li Jiazhai's minions.

The big man shouted at the new forbidden army outside the city: "I am Li Ming, the owner of Lijiazhai!" He is a first-class good citizen of the Great Song Dynasty! What is the matter with your army besieging my stockade? ”

Wu Song had no interest in being wordy with him at all, and ordered: "Attack!" ”

Wang Huan was ordered to immediately lead the new forbidden army and launch an attack on this Li Jiazhai.

It should be said that this is actually the first official military mission since the establishment of the new forbidden army. This military mission is not big or small. Because, although this Li Jiazhai is just a manor of a private landlord, it is actually a small city with high walls on all sides and guarded by armed Zhuang Ding.

Seeing that the new forbidden army launched a siege without saying a word, Li Ming was furious, and while directing the Zhuang Ding to resist against the wall, he shouted loudly: "My Li Jiazhai is not easy to mess with." If you dare to connive at the army's cruelty to the people, I will definitely report it to Master Tong Guan, and I will punish you severely! ”

When Wu Song heard this, he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.

Just like Zhangjiabao in Qinghe County, this Lijiazhai can have such a big force, and it is impossible without the collusion of officials and blacks. It's just that Wu Song didn't expect that this backer of Li Jiazhai was actually Tong Guan!

Since Tong Guan dared to default on the deduction of the new forbidden army's food and salary, he just got a supplement from this Li family village.

Wu Song immediately ordered: "Hurry up the attack and completely destroy this Li Jiazhai!" ”

For the first time, the new forbidden army officially launched a military operation to siege the city, and the soldiers were screaming and excited. The Zhuang Ding of the wall, where have they seen such a mighty and majestic army, they were all frightened. However, Li Ming took Zheng Er and the Five Tigers of Dongjiamiao to strictly supervise the battle, and the Zhuang Ding did not dare to slack off, so they had to rely on the strong high walls of Lijiazhai to resist stubbornly.

On the walls, archery, rolling wood, stones, etc., all kinds of tools and means for the regular army to defend the city were actually not lacking.

Although the new forbidden army did not take this small stockade into account, they had to use siege tools such as ladders and other siege tools, and took out the posture of attacking the city.

While observing the performance of the army in attacking the city, Wu Song recalled in his mind the situation when he rushed into Zhangjiabao to rescue Pan Jinlian. At this time, I also miss Pan Jinlian very much.

At that time, Pan Jinlian was trapped in a demon cave. Such an innocent and kind girl almost fell into the hands of the devil.

Under the dim sky of the Great Song Dynasty, in various places, I don't know how many girls like Pan Jinlian have encountered an unfortunate fate. In this Li family village, is there also a "Pan Jinlian"?

Jin Lian, where are you now? Are you okay?

I think that at the beginning, we fled Qinghe County together, came to Bianjing, and also passed by this Dongjia Temple.

In Wu Song's mind, Pan Jinlian's incomparably beautiful shadow appeared again. At this time, a report woke him up: "Tell the general, Lijiazhai has been captured!" ”

Captured so quickly?

Although the siege war is the most difficult war of all wars, after all, this Lijiazhai is only a small city built by a local rich man, because he is used to being powerful, he did not expect that there would be an army to attack, and the Zhuang Ding in the village usually did not go through any strict training.

In addition, the new forbidden army is the most cutting-edge army in the Great Song Dynasty today, and its morale is very high.

Therefore, it is indeed not a problem to win such a small village.

However, Wu Song was not happy.

He ordered someone to call Wang Huan, who was in charge of commanding the siege. There was no joy on Wang Huan's face, and he looked a little depressed.

As soon as Wu Song saw him, he scolded: "Damn, attacking such a small village, you actually lost 12 brothers and injured so many soldiers?" ”
