Chang Yu and Huang Degong, Gao Jie and the three of them did not expect badly, Jizhou City is indeed a miscellaneous army, and it is a temporary patchwork of troops, but only 5,000 troops.

After Li Zicheng reported the news that three armies were heading north along the border line between Hebei and Shandong, he immediately mobilized the troops of Zhending and Guangping to snipe and establish a defensive line to prevent the officers and men from advancing westward and northward.

After receiving Li Zicheng's military order, the puppet defense envoy Zhai Fengqi immediately joined the leader of the thief army, Chang Zhanglu, about 2,000 people, and urgently sent troops north to Jizhou to establish a defense line.

And Zhending Mansion was originally garrisoned by an army of thieves, the thieves army generals Ren Jirong and Ma Shiyao were injured in Taiyuan and did not die, and led the army to break the Zhending Mansion, just at this time Zhou Yuji led his troops east to the north, these two thieves will be avenging, led the troops to the north to pursue, leaving the Zhending Mansion with a strength of about 3,000, and most of them are officers and soldiers who surrendered to the homeless puppet army and other miscellaneous goods hurriedly gathered in Jizhou after being ordered.

However, after this rabble entered the city of Jizhou, they were still cautious at first, and first built an outpost in Zaoqiang to pay attention to the movements of the officers and soldiers, and saw that the officers and soldiers were motionless for more than ten days, knowing that they were afraid and did not dare to move forward, and the vigilance gradually relaxed, and Jizhou was also a city with thick walls and fearlessness, and became more and more arrogant, and even ignored Li Zicheng's ban and began to attack the people in the city, and even more importantly, the two groups of people and horses did not come from the same mountain, or they were dissatisfied with each other due to the uneven distribution of spoils.

But at this moment, the officers and soldiers suddenly crossed the river and marched west without warning, and took the outpost Zaoqiang County like lightning, and then the army Chen Bing Jizhou City was under the city overnight.

First, the vanguard people surrounded the city to persuade them to surrender, and then more and more officers and soldiers came later, and there were tens of thousands, and the thief army in the city was panicked for a while, but they were lucky, how to break the thick walls of the city!

Jizhou City is not a mansion and there are no other fortifications except for the city wall, only one of the four artillery pieces is available, and there are only more than ten cannonballs, and other military supplies are also pitiful, so when the army surrenders when the city is besieged, the thief army is not without disagreements.

Some people think that the person who knows the times is Junjie, and the hero does not eat the loss in front of him, and then he will fall, and the big deal is to look back and see that it is not good, and then the water is reversed, and some people think that the whole Hebei is the territory of the righteous army, and the army of the king is hundreds of thousands, and the three hundred miles from Baoding City to the south are the righteous army, how many waves can these officers and soldiers make, and last night they have sent people to the north to send a message, the high walls of Jizhou City are thick, and the officers and soldiers will not be able to fight down at all for a while and a half, and when the reinforcements come, these officers and soldiers will either flee or surrender, so wait a while and then say.

In the end, the latter had a slight upper hand and watched the wind again.

And Gao Jie and Huang Degong under the city saw that the persuasion was ineffective, and they thought that they had bragged to the little eunuch and entered the city before sunset.

The two of them joined forces this time to fight and cooperate in the division of labor, each led part of the attack on one door, Huang Degong beat the west gate and Gao Jie hit the south gate, and whoever broke the city first won the first credit.

By noon, the various units were in place, and the thief army in the city was still wavering, and Huang Degong and Gao Jie were no longer patient, and almost simultaneously ordered to attack the city.

The number of artillery in both armies varies, although it is not easy to break the city without heavy artillery, but it is a crushing fire suppression for the Jizhou City Bandit Army, which has almost no artillery.

The thieves on the city did not have long-range attack weapons to suppress, the officers and soldiers directly launched an attack 100 meters below the city, bows, arrows, stone throwers, and artillery fired at the city to suppress the city, the siege ladder against the wall of the officers and soldiers charged bravely, and after the field artillery bombarded the city gate, the siege vehicle directly hit it......

Chang Yu immediately looked at the raging battle two miles away, hearing the drums deafeningly, his brows stretched, the difference between offensive and defensive casualties has always been huge, but these thieves in front of him can defend the city...... It's fucking ridiculous.

Throughout Li Zicheng's more than ten years of battlefield experience, almost all of them are fleeing and attacking the city, but he has almost never defended the city, he is the ancestor who escaped, he is the great master of the siege, and he is an apprentice when defending the city.

A thief is a thief, the nature of being a thief is difficult to change, after the next city is mostly plundered and fled, there is no mind or the courage to live down for a long time to operate and raise soldiers, are leek cutting tactics, sometimes even leek roots are dug up, this is also one of the reasons why Li Zicheng has been wandering around for so many years, and has never had his own territory to live, until recent years, he has not seen the true meaning and enclosed Xi'an as the king.

Lack of experience in defending the city, shortage of military supplies for the defensive fortifications in the city, and the rabble mobilized in a hurry have not prepared at all in the past few days, not to mention that the must-have gold juice for defending the city is that they don't even prepare a few stones, so they rely on the hundreds of bows to suppress the officers and soldiers to attack the city?

Under the repeated onslaught of Huang Degong and Gao Jie, the thieves in the city became panicked and began to mess up, and then there was infighting......

But the two barbarians outside the city don't care if you are chaotic or not, let you surrender or not, then fight hard, fight crazy, it is difficult to encounter this kind of opportunity to bully the weak with the strong, and the little eunuch must behave well in course, on the strength of the city is several times, on the firepower is one day and one place, Huang Degong and Gao Jie are crazy in the competition, so they are the first to enter the city.

The thief army in the city obviously did not expect this officer and soldier to have such strong firepower and such a big fire, and said before that if they did not surrender and enter the city, they would be killed, which did not seem to be a fraud, and seeing that its offensive was becoming more and more fierce and even the officers and soldiers were about to enter the city, they immediately panicked, hurriedly discussed a few words, and decided to surrender.

"The thieves have surrendered"! Looking at the white cloth fluttering in the city, Tu Yuan cheered, and Chang Yu hummed expressionlessly.

Surrendered? Huang Degong and Gao Jie also found out, but then ordered to continue the onslaught, why did they go earlier, they couldn't see it, they couldn't hear it!

"These two stunned goods" Chang Yu couldn't help but scold, knowing that Huang Degong and Gao Jie had committed a shaft killing, they couldn't hold back their hands, but since the thief army had already fallen, why should they increase the damage, and if the rabbits inside were forced to be in a hurry, they were afraid that it would be unfavorable to the people in the city, and then let Guo Ren go to pass the word: Order the siege of the city and accept the enemy's surrender!

As soon as he started, the thief army surrendered, which made Huang Degong and Gao Jie a little unwilling, and the most important thing was that there was no winner if it wasn't for the little eunuch on his side, I was afraid that it would be another battle.

The thief army opened the city gate and surrendered, led by Zhai Fengqi, who was appointed by Liu Fangliang as the defense envoy of Guangping Mansion, only to see him lead more than ten thieves and thousands of thieves from the south gate out of the city to abandon their weapons and surrender.

Chang Yu ordered Gao Jie to send troops to take care of those thieves and ordered Huang Degong's men and horses to enter the city to settle the people, and when he was about to personally question Zhai Fengqi, he suddenly saw Gao Jie hurrying over: "There are thieves and reinforcements twenty miles to the north, more than 2,000!" ”

Everyone was stunned, and then couldn't help laughing, the timing of this reinforcement is really embarrassing, the thief army in the city just surrendered and you came, if they let them know that it can be embarrassing, how embarrassing!

Laughing and also a little surprised by the speed of the thief army reinforcements, it is rumored that Li has traveled three hundred miles from the south of Baoding City to Zhending Mansion is a thief army, it is obvious that this support army is the thief army in Jizhou City last night, and now the letter is coming, the speed is amazing, but it is still a little slower.

If you come, you will stay, Huang Degong and Gao Jie did not satisfy their hunger just now, and their psychology was holding back the fire, and at this time, an old sow happened to put out the fire, and the two scrambled to be the first to fight.

Chang Yu immediately ordered the two of them to send one army each to snipe, and then led the second battalion under his command into the city.

When he arrived at the city gate, he saw more than 2,000 thieves squatting on the ground, and more than ten people were tied up by five flowers should be the head of the thief.

The thieves signed up one by one, and Chang Yu had only heard the names of two people, one was Zhai Fengqi, and the other was Chang Zhanglu, who was one of Liu Fangliang's subordinates who stayed in Guangping Mansion.

"Are there any of them who have been officials of the imperial court?" Chang Yu swept his cold eyes, and immediately came out with three or five people, only promising to reveal his identity, but it was the officials of Jizhou and nearby counties who surrendered when the thieves came.

"The thief army is too strong to do, and the court will not punish him heavily, but although the death penalty is avoided, the crime of living cannot be escaped" Chang Yu gave Hu Ling a look, and then these people were escorted into the city by the men and horses of the palace battalion.

"My lord, we have surrendered, begging for mercy to serve the adult" Zhai Fengqi is the biggest official here, seeing that Chang Yu only asked a name and stopped birding him, he was a little panicked, and when he saw that he was going to ride away, he bowed his head and shouted.

Chang Yu raised his eyebrows and glanced back at him: "I'll come and talk to you after the governor appeases the people."

Zhai Fengqi was overjoyed, kowtowed and thanked him, and Chang Yu immediately entered the city.
