Xu Deshan is definitely the kind of temper that takes advantage of your illness and wants your life, seeing the rebels roaring back, Xu Deshan got out of the camp and commanded the archers to come forward in pursuit.

This scene in front of him has subverted the understanding of all the generals present, a group of van troops, and archers, are now chasing the elite troops of the rebels all over the ground, the conscience of heaven and earth, as long as the rebels turn back and make a counter-charge, they can immediately re-beat the Daimyo's army all over the ground to find teeth, but on the contrary, the more fierce the Daimyo's army chases, the more panicked those rebels flee, and there is no intention to stop and fight back.

On the outskirts of the camp, the traps that could be crept over when entering became an obstacle for the rebels, leaving a rebel in almost every pit, and the Xiang army, without any defense, fired a volley of arrows, calling the rebels to drop the corpses of two or three hundred men and retreat.

At this time, the battle on the western battlefield was also coming to an end, Wei Huang led hundreds of elites to the big tent, until this time, the overall situation had been decided, Ming Ho came out of the big tent, and knew what happened in the barracks this early morning.

The pride of the sky, the genius of the world, after Ming Ho heard the story of Xu Deshan's single retreat from the enemy after I don't know how many people have changed, there is only one thought left in his heart, Xu Deshan, this time he is not just fooling around, he saved the lives of the whole army and 7,000 people!

People's status is won by their own strength, even if it is a child who leads a relative's family and becomes an official by relying on relationships, people must also have their own background and means as the foundation, otherwise a stupid boy becomes an official, even if people are in awe of you because of your official position at the beginning, but after several times and three times, let people recognize your essence, even if people don't say it, I'm afraid they will have some ideas in their hearts.

If it is said that he did not mistake the military law before, and saving Wei Huang can only be regarded as Xu Deshan's personal character, this time Xu Deshan used his own ability to govern the whole army of the Daimyo Mansion Army, no matter where Xu Deshan went, he was greeted with applause and cheers, and in the leadership, even if some people were envious, jealous and hateful, they had to admit that Xu Deshan had transcended the sky, and it was not for them and others to catch up.

In this fierce battle, the Daimyo's army won a great victory, and on the western battlefield, the rebels' 2,000 decoys were almost completely annihilated, and the main force of the sneak attack in the east also dropped the corpses of two or three hundred people, plus the seven or eight hundred people eliminated in the last battle, the Daimyo's army has eliminated a quarter of the main combat strength of the rebels.

After cleaning the battlefield, it was already noon, Ming Ho specially found Xu Deshan and asked whether he should continue to march today, or camp on the spot and rest for a day, after all, after staying up all night and fighting hard for half a day, the physical exhaustion of the soldiers is also a big problem.

Xu Deshan was noncommittal about Ming Ho's question, not because Xu Deshan was a little hesitant, but because Xu Deshan didn't have time to think, at this time, Xu Deshan was already lying on his own small bed, sleeping comfortably, no matter how Ming Ho asked him to pull him, Xu Deshan only snorted and responded, and Ming Ho couldn't kick the little hero to the ground in front of everyone.

However, since Xu Deshan had already expressed his meaning with practical actions, it was not easy for Ming Ho not to listen to it, so the Daimyo's army was stationed in the same place, rested for a day, and at the same time, dug twice as many traps around the camp to prevent the rebels from sneaking up again.

Ming Ho was afraid of the rebels' sneak attack, if there was no Xu Deshan, he would almost lose his life, so Ming Ho sent someone again, quickly whipped up, contacted the people of the rear team, and asked the people to speed up the pace, and the combat troops to speed up the convergence, the number of people, at least look at the momentum, give the rebels a hundred guts, and dare not use thousands of people to sneak attack the team of tens of thousands of people.

For the sake of his own life, Ming Ho was cautious to death in the following days, and forcibly turned a day's journey into three days, dedicating one-third of his time to marching every day, and the rest of the time was to reconnoiter the situation, and then dig pits in front and back of the camp to prevent the rebels from sneak attack.

In fact, Ming Ho doesn't have to be like this, in the first two battles, the rebels have lost a quarter of their combat strength, you know, even in a large battle with the Liao, the loss of an army is generally around a quarter, if there are more deaths, then the morale of the army will be seriously affected, let alone fighting, finding a way to prevent the army from defecting is the most important.

What's more, if you look at the two confrontations between the rebels and the Daimyo's army, the first time the two armies met unexpectedly, they were killed by 500 to 1,000, and one was killed, and the second time, I came up with a way to rob the camp in the middle of the night and attack the west, but I was seen through by others at a glance, and I had already prepared, not only did the bait not come back, but even the elite brought by Buji was also partially damaged.

Such a tragic casualty situation has long scared Wang Ze half to death, and at this time, Wang Ze can personally feel that in fact, an emperor, especially a rebellious emperor, is not so easy to be, before even winning battles, it is easy to say anything when he is jubilant and happy, but now that he is defeated, countless things are piled up in front of Wang Ze.

This Wang Ze, although he has read books and has some talents, but the king was before the rebellion

, is still a junior colonel in the army, although he secretly controls a huge Maitreya Buddhism, but there are only 100 people under his hands, think about it, a sect hiding in the shadows, what can be whimsical, if you can't fight, it's a killing, what's the big deal, Wang Ze, the head of the sect, is relaxed and stress-free, but now he rebels and becomes the emperor, the emperor, he can't be the same as a bandit, he has to be reasonable, and he has to follow the rules.

However, Wang Ze did not have the experience of managing so many people, and secondly, Wang Ze couldn't change his style of doing things at once, and thirdly, he was defeated one after another, and Wang Ze's mentality was a little unbalanced.

Even if you put aside those things that can be put aside, there are still a few things that need to be dealt with as soon as possible in front of Wang Ze now.

The first is to recruit troops, until now, Wang Ze's family is only the border army brought out by the Xuanyi Army and the Qianning Army, and the successive battles have made the strength of the army seriously insufficient, not to mention that now the soldiers of the Daimyo Mansion are coming to the city, so what are you waiting for, Wang Ze naturally wants to mobilize all forces.

When solving this problem, Wang Ze's method of dealing with it was very rude, whether you are a believer in Maitreya Buddhism or not, as long as you can walk on the ground, as long as you are able-bodied, pick up my weapon and go to the city tower.

This has come to the second problem, the city of tens of thousands of people in Beizhou City, the number of men caught by strong men is counted, but the weapons, armor, food, and city defense supplies needed in the army are not enough, of course, these captured strong men are used to send them to death, and they don't need any weapons and armor, just give a bite to eat every day, but iron, stone, wood, oil, these things can't be conjured up.

Wang Ze is also simple and rude about this problem, since the men are soldiers, then the women can not be idle, and the things that can be dismantled in the house are demolished, the iron is melted to make knives and guns, and the wood is dismantled to defend the city, which is not a perfect solution.

What the? Someone wouldn't want to? It's so simple, just kill it, I don't know if I can live until tomorrow, and what do I care about other people's lives.

There is another problem, and the most important one, that is, how to hold the city of Beizhou and repel the army of the daimyo's mansion.

In fact, after so many days of blood, Wang Ze has calmed down now, and has given himself a preliminary positioning, that is, don't look at himself as the king of Dongping County, but in fact, he is not much different from a group of bandits and bandits, but he started from the regular army, and the noise is relatively big, and it is precisely because of this that the court will hate itself even more, and at all costs, he will get rid of himself.

Now there are only two roads in front of him, if he still regards himself as the king of Dongping County, then he will defend Beizhou City, hoping that the believers in the other border armies will echo the uprising, gather here, and worship himself as the king.

And the second way is to abandon Beizhou City, treat yourself as an ordinary bandit, go to the northwest, sweep the counties along the way, and go to a deep mountain and old forest to be your own mountain king.

These two roads, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, the advantage of the first road is that the benefits are large, once it can be as imagined success, then you can divide the territory, monopolize one side, and truly call the king the emperor, according to Hebei. But the risk of doing so is also very great, not to mention whether the Maitreya Buddhist believers in the border army can kill the main general like themselves and go to Beizhou to vote, even if they can do it, when they come to Beizhou City, it will take a period of time in the middle, and all kinds of interceptions along the way, as for how long it will take, the king does not know, and during this period of time, whether he can hold Beizhou City is a big problem.

Trapped in a lonely city, eating, drinking, wearing, and wearing, they can only get from Beizhou City, one person who dies in battle will have one less person, and one less bite of food will be less if you eat a mouthful of food, and the Song army outside is different, they have the support of the huge national strength and population of the Song Dynasty, Hebei can be transferred from Hedong if there are no soldiers, and Hedong can be transferred from the northwest if there are no soldiers, even if there is no one in the northwest, it is also about the center, two lakes, two Guangzhou, a small Beizhou city, even if all of his subordinates are divine soldiers, what can they do, they will definitely not be able to stop the attack of the Song Dynasty.

As for the second road, it's simple, isn't it just to go up the mountain to be a bandit, there is no technical content, and there is nothing to worry about, there are more bandits encircled and suppressed by the Xuanyi Army before, as long as you take the medicine according to the prescription, find a deep mountain and old forest, with the property, money and food looted in Beizhou City and the surrounding areas for so many days, it is not a problem to hide for a few years, let alone the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court at that time, even if you don't know where you are.

However, the king is not reconciled, he has been planning for so many years, worrying and hard, and as a result, he is going to be a king in the mountains? I was still a small school in Xuanyijun, and I ate and drank spicy food every day, but now I ran into the ravine, not only was I worried every day, but I didn't have to eat or drink, why did I come here.

In the face of these two roads, it is difficult for Wang Ze to choose, and he feels that he needs to weigh the pros and cons carefully, and then make a choice, but in the city of Beizhou, it is already a mess, and all kinds of things continue to find Wang Ze, so that Wang Ze is busy, and when Wang Ze has some breathing time, three days have passed

In the past, outside the city of Beizhou, the army of the Daimyo led by Ming Hao and the first batch of 50,000 people had already besieged the city of Beizhou.

Of course, for a huge Beizhou City, Ming Hao's only a few thousand soldiers and 50,000 people, obviously can not surround Beizhou City, let alone capture Beizhou City, but when Wang Ze stood on the city gate tower to watch, he found that these Daimyo army did not seem to have the intention of attacking, after they set up camp outside the south city gate, they divided more than half of the manpower, went to the west city gate, began to dig pits on the ground, large and small, one by one, one by one, tens of thousands of people started work, half a day, Just under the noses of the rebels, digging outside the West City Gate beyond recognition, there is no way to see it, the effect is good, ordinary people don't say they are in a hurry to run out, even if they walk slowly, it will take half a day.

On the first day, the army of the Daimyo Mansion dug the outside of the West City Gate like this, and then left four or five hundred people to garrison it, and on the second day, they continued to go to the North City Gate, and on the same day, they made the North City Gate in the same way, and achieved the same effect.

Zhang Luan, who was standing on the city wall, saw that he couldn't sit still, and hurriedly said to Wang Ze, "Lord, they are going to trap us to death in Beizhou City, we can't let them dig down like this, please send a team of men and horses, two or three thousand people, to disperse these people in one blow." ”

Wang Ze behaved very plainly, he glanced at Zhang Luan, and said, "How do you know that this is not a plan of the Daimyo's army, two or three thousand people, how many two or three thousand people are left in my city, if these two or three thousand people fall into their ambush and never return, there will be no more usable soldiers in my hands." ”

Zhang Luan said: "Then let's just sit back and wait?" ”

Wang Zedao said, "It's okay for them to be like this, we can't get out, they can't come in, we can only hope that the other border armies can make any moves, anyway, they are all dead, let's wait for him and two or three months, and live happily for a while." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Luan was silent, and then, the king went down to the city wall, returned to his palace, and called his generals to look for beautiful women in the city of Beizhou, give themselves concubines, serve good wine, let themselves drink, sing and dance for themselves, and other military affairs, all of which were handed over to Zhang Luan Buji to deal with.

In the days that followed, the Daimyo's army was busy outside the city, and the city of Beizhou was even more chaotic, think about it, Wang Ze, the supreme leader, has begun to be lustful, so the heroes and generals who followed Wang Ze's rebellion, what reason is there not to indulge themselves, but in this case, it will suffer the people in Beizhou City, not to mention doing coolies for the rebels, and now they have to let the rebels be humiliated, in Beizhou City, all the time, there are screams and crying, full of shouting and helplessness, blood, wine, lust, All kinds of darkest and most negative emotions of human nature erupted here, and this important town in Hebei, second only to the Daimyo's Mansion, became a hell on earth.

The army of the Daimyo Mansion was not idle outside, after digging pits outside the three gates outside the city of Beizhou, they began to pile up the earth mountains outside the south city gate, and in the most lively days of the Beizhou City Rebellion, the earth hills were piled higher than the city walls, and after piling up a high point, they began to extend from the high point to both sides, although the speed was very slow, but there was a great momentum to surround the city of Beizhou in the earth mountain, and the project of digging pits outside the city gates continued, and the pits were pit after pit, so that the rebels could not see the edge at a glance on the city wall.

In the past few days, Xu Deshan's life began to be leisurely, as a hero, Xu Deshan enjoyed a higher food treatment than Ming Ho, his own independent camp, the personal soldiers who commanded at will, and Zhou Di, who followed Xu Deshan to protect Xu Deshan's safety.

To be honest, Xu Deshan was a little bored, a few days ago, he was still in the mood to ride a horse around Beizhou City, to see the spectacular scene dug outside the four city gates, and then a few days tired of playing, Xu Deshan ran to see Tushan again, but now it's okay, Xu Deshan has his new toy.

When the second batch of people arrived, someone carried a few boxes and put them in Xu Deshan's tent, Xu Deshan saw Daxi, opened the box, which was full of various parts, Xu Deshan smiled, selected some of them, found a piece of cloth to wrap them, asked Zhou Di to take it, and then went to find Ming Ho.

Ming Ho is actually in a good mood for the past two days, after Xu Deshan secretly called him into a secret tent one day and said something, Ming Ho didn't take the rebels in front of him in his eyes at all, after all, he had surrounded Beizhou City like this, no matter what, the rebels would definitely not be able to come out, as long as his safety was guaranteed, then everything else would be easy to say.

And this time when he saw Xu Deshan, Ming Ho also smiled and asked Xu Deshan, "Xu Deshan, what are you doing this time, if you have any bad ideas, come and tell me." ”

Xu Deshan smiled and said, "Lord Ming, what are you in a hurry, now that the rebels are only in the last minute, don't be too anxious." ”

Myeongho said strangely, "Then what are you doing here, you would normally rather sleep in a nest than enter my big tent once." ”

Xu Deshan said, "I don't have a bad idea, but there is a fun object, I thought about it, I will face the Liao army in Hebei in the future, so those objects that I studied before, just take this opportunity to practice on the battlefield, my lord, please move, come and see how my treasure is!" ”
