605 The sword of justice and fairness always comes
Zhou Chuan emphasized three points to Ma Yuan and other generals who led the troops to fight:
First, women must not kill innocents indiscriminately, they must not rob ordinary people, and they must not kill indiscriminately for good families. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Second, he was determined to go east to the sea, and he was not allowed to stay in the Great Song Dynasty, like Tian Hu, who cut the land and called the king, forcibly dragged the people to follow the adventure, and let other people also be implicated in the trouble.
Third, it is necessary to raid the state capital along the way, sweep away large households, collect money and food, and strengthen the power, but it is necessary to take care of the clothing, food, shelter and transportation of the people who follow, and must not be abused and abandoned.
As long as the old man is willing to join in and take on management responsibilities and solve the worries of the army after the battle, let alone three or thirty, Ma Yuan and others also readily agreed.
Although the Halal Mountain is a mountainous area, it is not suitable for entrenchment, they have been determined to be pirates, and this principle and goal are not affected, so there is nothing that cannot be discussed.
With the encouragement and strong support and care of the whole family, in the support of the full mine, Zhou Chuan took over the logistics with vigor and spirit, allowing Ma Yuan and others to free up their bodies to concentrate on the war.
The mine rebelled for several days, and the local prefecture and county still knew nothing.
Although that place means a mountain of gold, it is deadly, and I don't know how many people have died over the years by reaching out to the mines. There are not one or two local county officials who have been convicted and ended up with life rather than death, and the former prefect who was instigated by others couldn't help but be greedy was also planted in this regard. The Halal Mountain Mine has become a taboo in the local area, and officials are reluctant to talk about it.
Ma Yuan and the others were generally prepared, and the first goal was to attack Fucheng.
It was also a must and had to risk fighting.
If you want to have more weapons and equipment, money and food to survive, and a large number of tents that are most important for shelter from the wind and rain for long journeys, you can only get them from looting the city.
Under the influence of Tian Hu in the north, today's Fucheng is not so easy to fight, from the bureaucrats to the powerful families all attach importance to defense and strive to ensure safety, lest there are local or passing robber gangs to break the Fucheng, the garrison thousands of soldiers and horses are no longer as hangy as in the past, and many powerful families in the city also pay attention to collecting escort forces and raising more thugs.
The Fucheng army and thugs are added together, and there are quite a few people. This is a force to be reckoned with, and it has the advantage of city defense.
Although there are 8,000 garrisons in the mine, they are also well-trained and brave compared to their opponents, and they are willing to fight bloodily to fight for their lives, but compared to the opponents of Fucheng, the number of troops is only afraid that they will not have an advantage, and they cannot all be used to fight Fucheng, and they must leave the army to lead the people to strictly defend the Halal Mountain to protect the huge family group and wealth, and there is no carelessness.
After all, no one is sure that there is no news of the rebellion.
If the government has learned the news but pretends not to know and does not move, but the surrounding state capitals secretly mobilize people to kill them all at once, and the carelessness here is negligent and negligent in taking precautions, the consequences will be unimaginable.
There are many young and strong people in the mine rebel group, and more than 60,000 miners are even stronger, but they are good at work, not good at fighting, they do not lack strength, and they play with hammers and shovels, and they must be fierce and powerful in fighting for the sake of new life, but the vast majority of people do not even have the most basic skills of parrying, dodging, and fighting, and they are slow to respond to attacks and are clumsy and flustered, and this fatal flaw cannot be solved by hasty intensive training.
Simply using the people as a guard force is too unreliable even if the number is numerous.
Ma Yuan and other generals discussed again and again with Zhou Chuan and other managers, and decided to leave the fine poisonous python Zhou Xing, Xiao Yong, Han Yuan python, Yong'er to lead the infantry 2,000 water army, 1,000 troops, a total of 3,000 troops to assist Zhou Chuan to lead the Minzhuang armed defense rear, Ma Yuan, Helian Jinming, Wang Bochao The three fierce generals led the remaining 5,000 troops, and selected 8,000 men who were better at fighting and actively wanted to participate in the war, put on military uniforms and pretended to be the army to strengthen the siege force, a total of 13,000 people left the Halal Mountain and rushed to Fucheng.
On the way, it was inevitable that many people from the villages would be encountered, but no one paid attention to the army that passed by in a hurry. First, no one wants to provoke passing military ruffians, so try to act as if they didn't see it, so as not to be curious and attract military ruffians to find trouble and attack a lot of blackmail. The second is the troubles in the north, and although it is not common for the imperial court to mobilize troops to fight in the north, it is not uncommon.
The anti-army came to the vicinity of Fucheng very smoothly, and there was not even a single official squire who came to inquire, which reflected the extremely bad impression of the Great Song army in the hearts of the Song people, and also reflected the Song people's ruthless disregard for the life and death of the army. Ma Yuan and the others understood it in their hearts, but at this time, they didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
If you want to successfully capture the city, you can only raid, otherwise you will fall into a siege to the death, and it will be basically over.
The army lurked nearby for a night's rest, and when it was almost dark, they immediately rushed to the city.
Ninety percent of the certainty of this battle came from Huang Fuxiong, who was transferred back to Fucheng, and the original Halal Mountain defenders who brought him, and they had contacted Li Ying and Wai in advance, opened the city gate, and put in the army.
Although Huang Fuxiong is a sworn brother who swears to live and die together with the heavens and swears to live and die together with the heavens, Ma Yuan has confidence in the second righteous brother Huang Fuxiong, but at the moment of life and death, he and Lao Sihe even Jinming's hearts are so nervous that they beat the drum.
In case the emperor is unreliable, he betrays his friends to seek glory and cooperates with the Fucheng army to set a trap.......
There are only six pythons, and Wang Bochao only has the excitement before the war, and there is no fear of betrayal.
He is a belligerent and stunned man, believing in sworn brothers, and he doesn't want to do so much at all.
Near the front of the city, Ma Yuan anxiously stared at the city that was still in the dark with only a few torches, waiting for the time and code agreed with Huang Fuxiong.
Suddenly, a torch in the city made a circle, three circles on the left and three circles on the right, and finally three nods up and down.
Wang Bochao excitedly whispered: "Big brother, fourth brother, second brother has given a signal." ā
Ma Yuan nodded, and vaguely saw that the drawbridge was slowly lowered, the city gate was gently opened, and someone deliberately raised a torch to shine out of the open city gate to signal to this side, and he did not immediately wave the army to attack together, but said to Helian Jinming: "Fourth brother, you are brave and good at avoiding arrows and plotting, and you are keen and meticulous, so take a thousand men and horses over to explore the road first." ā
The siege is a surprise attack, and the robbery is time. There can be no delay.
Helian Jinming did not hesitate to risk his life, and immediately led his troops to rush over.
The soldiers are in danger. The human heart is unpredictable. The truth is that there is nothing wrong with being careful. But Ma Yuan and Helian Jinming were too worried this time.
Let's not talk about Huang Fuxiong's character, just the deputy general of the 6,000 elite infantry army of the dignified Halal Mountain was transferred back to Fucheng but was squeezed out and became the actual city gate official with only one hundred and eighty old departments, just this evil breath, Huang Fuxiong couldn't swallow it, there was no way before, and now the sworn brothers led hundreds of thousands of people in the mine to rebel, where can he still withstand the excitement and murder of the outburst.
He happened to be responsible for guarding the city gate, and it was most convenient to cooperate with his brother to break the city, and he only cared about sulking and drinking to drown his sorrows, but he didn't expect that this shameful duty would have today's benefits.
Last night, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep at all, knowing that this matter was extremely dangerous, he didn't dare to reveal a trace of his subordinates' old subordinates in advance, and forced his mind to try not to show traces on his appearance.......
The brothers of the old department, who were lucky enough to stay in the army and continue to eat food, were also aggrieved and resentful.
Rough soldiers have tempers, in a group like the army, you will have a temper if you don't have a temper, the court is unfair, the government is unknown, how can these soldiers not want to retaliate if they have the opportunity?
Helian Jinming came to the city gate, and naturally met the ecstatic Huangfu Xiong, who came forward and hugged him fiercely.
"Kill hard, rob those bitches hard. Our brothers are going to have a good time today. ā
These words became the slogan of this war and the mobilization order like a booster.
Thirteen,000 troops rushed into the city, divided their troops to seize the arsenal urgently, equipped with 8,000 people who lacked regular weapons, and fiercely attacked the military camp in the city.
The four Ma Yuan brothers thought that there would be a fierce resistance and fighting, but what they didn't expect was that when they led the troops and shouted: "We are a pirate army, and we only kill corrupt officials and criminal gentry, and do not hurt or rob civilians." He who knows things lays down his arms and does not resist. Those who dare to resist will be killed. "Just as they were preparing to storm in one go, the officers and soldiers in the barracks who hurriedly rose when they heard the alarm heard the word pirate, and they actually started fighting among themselves instead of facing the battle.
Some people took the opportunity to sneak attack and cut down the low-level and greedy officers who had hated in their hearts for a long time but had been helpless before, and they were used to drinking the blood of soldiers at all levels of the garrison; Someone shouted, "I wanted to join the pirates for a long time, but I was looking forward to your coming." According to the legendary rules of pirates, he raised his hand and surrendered with his sword and gun, and rumbled over and asked to join the pirate army, happily seeing his long-lost relatives during the New Year.
These two types of people are ordinary people, but they can be so decisive when they encounter major events related to the future of Manmen's lives, because their families, at least the same villagers or clansmen, have run to join the pirates, and they have the means to know exactly some key truths about the pirate empire, and know that it is a powerful and beautiful new empire with Han people as the main body.
The pirate empire was ruled by the Han Chinese, which was of great importance to the Song people. If it is a foreign country, no matter how powerful and beautiful it is, it will not be very attractive.
Everyone knows that the Great Song Dynasty **** rebellion, since the founding of the country, has extremely strict control over the army, not to mention ordinary soldiers, that is, senior officers, without legitimate official business or private reasons approved by relevant authorities and documents that can be proven, dare to run around privately, especially through the state capital cross-border activities, it is a heavy punishment to catch it, and it is normal to cut off the head on the spot.
Strict management and control of the army is, first, to prevent the Song people who do not like to be soldiers and forcibly recruited to become deserters, and second, to prevent collusion and trouble.
In order to further effectively distinguish between the people and the army and control the army, the vast majority of the officers and men of the Song army had the Song army mark on their faces or bodies, and not only the faces of the people who issued them were stamped with gold seals, but also because of the increasing threat of pirates, the bureaucrats paid special attention to supervision and control to prevent deserters who defected to the enemy.
The pirates have finally raided here. A fierce battle is about to break out. The camp is either/or. In a hurry, how could these soldiers have the ability and time to carefully judge whether they were real pirates or not.
For them, the long-awaited opportunity has finally arrived, no matter whether it is true or not, first join in and take revenge on corrupt officials and those who show off their might, and then see if it is a real pirate army, and decide whether to stay or create fake official documents to mobilize evidence and gang up to escape and kill to the East China Sea.
That's what I wanted.
One-third of the soldiers surrendered on the spot, spontaneously killing the hated vampire bosses and the bullies in the army who relied on their backers or force to oppress and extort them.
The rest of the soldiers were also unmotivated, and under the threat of their former comrades and pirates, they all dropped their weapons and scattered.
Of the thousands of troops distributed in the barracks throughout the city, few of them fought out to resist.
Ma Yuan and the others were dumbfounded.
No matter how they thought about it, they didn't expect that the pirate empire would have such a terrifying appeal in the Song army.
At this moment, they deeply felt the iron-clad trend of the Great Song Dynasty's imminent demise, and became more and more convinced that their choice of rebellion as pirates was extremely correct, and their confidence was unprecedentedly high.
How can a country survive when a large number of soldiers who shoulder the mission of protecting the country are unwilling to sell their lives, and there are many soldiers who are looking forward to taking refuge in foreign countries, and the rest do not resist?
Judging from the situation of Fucheng, if the pirate empire wants to kill the mainland and occupy China one day, it will be easy to overthrow the rule of the Great Song Dynasty.
What made them even more stunned was that with the massacre, robbery, corrupt officials and collusion with the government to rob the people, those officers and soldiers who had already escaped actually came out of nowhere, and asked to join the pirates, honestly obeyed the command, took away their weapons and fought together with the Halal Mountain Mining Army.
The vast majority of the officers and soldiers of Fucheng have become quasi-pirate troops like the Halal Mountain Army, which has greatly enhanced their combat effectiveness, and the elite thugs who have killed powerful families have fled with heavy casualties.
At this point, there's not much left to say. The battle went more clearly and smoothly after dawn, and it didn't take too long to end.
In the meantime, some ruffians and hooligans took the opportunity to come out and rob while the fire was burning, and they also shouted to join the pirates and pretend to be refugeers, but in fact, they wantonly committed murder to gain benefits for themselves.
As a result, without Ma Yuan and others punishing these scum according to Zhou Chuan's three requirements, the Fucheng army that followed the rebellion consciously wielded a knife to slash and kill these people, and these people fled back to their hiding places in fear, and they didn't dare to easily come out to fish in troubled waters.
Afterwards, Ma Yuan and the others figured out that the officers and soldiers of Fucheng who surrendered and followed were not of high civilization, conscience, and sense of justice, but that they did not want criminals and scum in the pirate immigration policy.
Those who are mixed into immigrants do not have to be lucky, and they can hide their unscrupulous and sinful from now on and become good citizens of the pirate empire. There will always be someone who can recognize you and expose you, and the end is to be the hard-working cannon fodder that will die. Because the rule of law slogan of the pirate empire is: "Evil must be punished; Sin will be repaid. Wherever you flee, the sword of justice will come down. ā
The officers and men consciously removed the scum because they were afraid that the scum in the team would change the smell of the group, and the evildoers would affect the whole, the pirates would refuse to accept them, and even the family members who had emigrated and lived in peace and were living like a dream. In the massacre and looting, even if you kill the red eyes and rob the crazy heart, you don't dare to really mess around, in addition to the fear of the anger and punishment of the "pirate army" in the same country, the most fundamental constraint is also because of the pirate immigration policy.
These former bastards and ruffians suddenly became more qualified, and it turned out that they were fucking striving to be good people and actively performing.
After Ma Yuan, Helian Jinming, and the second stunned Wang Bochao understood this reason, they were all violently shaken, secretly alerted, and the ferocity of the riot was also forcibly rational.
