Chapter 221: Breaking the Village

"You really don't need us, huh?" Zhang Youdi's tone seemed to be a little regretful.

"What, you want to go into battle?" Xu Shizhen asked.

"Yes, you have to get credit for going into battle." Zhang Youdi replied: "With merit, you can change the field." ”

"I call it land, but before joining the army, how could there be land at home."

Zhang Youdi raised his head slightly, looking forward to a better life in the future:

"Now I can divide ten acres, if I can make some contributions, I can divide more, if I can divide fifty acres, my whole family can be comfortable......."

"Fifty acres of land, that's what you want?" Xu Shizhen said: "For the sake of fifty acres of land, you dare to go to the battlefield and fight hard? ”

Zhang Youdi smiled and replied: "Well, with land, there will be people who are willing to marry their daughters to me, give birth to a few boys, and my old Zhang family will have a future." ”

Xu Shizhen was about to open his mouth to ask again, when another cheer came from the front, interrupting his conversation with Zhang Youdi.

Xu Shizhen looked ahead again, where the car formation of the Zhenyuan battalion had approached the dock wall of Zhujiazhuang, and the soldiers who could shoot arrows and the musketeers of the Shenji soldiers shot together, suppressing the counterattack fire on the earthen wall of Zhujiazhuang, and the roar of the Shenji cannon was mixed with the roar of the Shenji cannon.

The militia who were forced by the remnants of the Zhu family to fire arrows on the earthen wall were beaten by the ferocious firepower, although there were anti-arrow hangers on the dock wall, which could resist the bows and arrows of the Xuan Feng soldiers, but the watery planks could not stop the 15 mm lead bullets and the more ferocious magic cannons.

The sawdust stirred up by the lead bullet became a more efficient killer, and the overhangs on the earthen walls soon became unsupportable, and they collapsed one by one.

After that, bows and arrows can also play a good killing role, only the Zhu family militia dressed in cloth let out a miserable howl, and people kept turning around and trying to escape, but Zhu Biao, the third young master of Zhujiazhuang, led the remaining 50 or so Zhuang guests to be the supervising team, forcing everyone to stay on the top of the dangerous wall, and shooting at the shield car array with bows and arrows.

After about a quarter of an hour of firing between the two sides, a majestic drum sounded from the rear of the Zhenyuan camp, and nearly a hundred heavily armored soldiers shouted in unison, holding various cold weapons to cross the shield car array, and rushed towards the gaps in the earthen walls that were too late to block.

Zhu Biao behind the earthen wall was also red-eyed, and when his eldest brother went out of the village to counterattack, he sent someone to inform him to quickly gather the soldiers who dared to fight and do the third wave of assault.

But Zhu Long really looked too highly at the militia in Zhuangzhong, after he and Han Tao took away all the Zhuangke Zhuang Ding on the east gate, Zhu Biao could only draw the militia who could fight from elsewhere, and when the assembly was almost over, Zhu Long's side had collapsed.

So Zhu Biao could only lead the militia with a greatly reduced strength to desperately defend the dock wall, but unfortunately they had nothing to do with the shield car array, but the firepower of the Qingzhou army could cause great damage, and it didn't take long for this side to be unable to hold .......

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Zhu Biao to watch a large group of Qingzhou thieves in bright iron armor rush into the village from the gap in the dock wall that was almost undefended, and the one at the front was even wearing two layers of iron armor - inside was a chain mail, and on the outside was a whole armor that looked like a large heart guard, and the cold light was very scary.

The Qingzhou thief brandished a heavy Zen staff, smashing left and right, all the Zhuang Ding Zhuang guests were not the same generals, several who dared to step forward to meet the battle were all broken heads, red blood mixed with white brain flowers scattered in all directions, the rest of the people abandoned their weapons, turned around and fled to the village.

As he fled, he let out a panicked cry:

"Defeated! It's broken! ”

"Defeated! It's broken! ”

Zhu Biao's eyes were red, and he roared in a hoarse voice: "Beat the Qingzhou thief back!" Otherwise you'll all die! Your wives and daughters will be ......"

On a mournful battlefield, this high-spirited voice was indeed a little different, so it also attracted Lu Zhishen's attention.

"Phew, that bird thief, take your life!"

The flower monk waved his Zen staff and rushed towards Zhu Biao, and the third young master of Zhujiazhuang also roared wildly and raised his big knife to meet .......

About three breaths later, Lu Zhishen lifted Zhu Biao's still unwilling head, and shouted: "Zhu Biao is the head, don't descend early!" ”

"Descend early!"

"Descend early!"

The shouts urging the Zhujia soldiers to surrender quickly overwhelmed the enemy's last determination to resist, and countless Zhuang Ding fell to their knees with their heads in their hands, and Zhujiazhuang's resistance began to fade rapidly.

Subsequently, the Zhenyuan battalion selected the vanguard soldiers to follow the trap soldiers and rushed into Zhujiazhuang, someone opened the east gate of Zhuangzi, outside the door, hundreds of sharp soldiers and divine soldiers poured into Zhujiazhuang like a flood that broke the embankment, and quickly flooded the corner of this canal dock fort.

After another half an hour, Zhu Chaofeng opened the gate of the courtyard where he lived, and led the remaining villagers, all the wives and concubines, daughters-in-law, grandchildren, household servants and maids, to go out and surrender.

At this point, the Qingzhou army conquered Zhujiazhuang.

"Send the troops into the village and severely punish all lawlessness!"

Xu Shiyang looked at the red flags that were constantly waving on the wall of Zhujiazhuang dock, and ordered loudly:

"Without my orders, you are not allowed to burn, kill, loot, or fade into the vanish! Violators will be beheaded! ”

Zhujiazhuang is a canal dock fort, and most of the strong men in the fort are slender men and part-time farmers, who are physically strong, have experience in cooperation with each other, and also have a certain degree of discipline.

Xu Shiyang believes that if he can provide a bright future, strict training and excellent weapons, these people are a very good source of soldiers, and he does not want to let the unscrupulous soldiers who have won the victory ruin the trust of these people.

Xu Shiyang had already thought about it, this time, he would only punish the senior management of Zhujiazhuang and those Zhuang guests who were usually idle and could only dance with knives and guns.

Ordinary strong men should be absorbed into the Qingzhou system as much as possible.

Of course, that was for later, and the battle was not over at this point.

"Gongsun Sheng, Xie Zhen, Sun Li! The three of you are in command of your headquarters, and you will immediately go north to eliminate the reinforcements of Lijiazhuang! ”

Xu Shiyang ordered loudly:

"Xu Shisong, Zhang Ye, Luan Tingyu, you are responsible for dealing with Hujiazhuang from the south!"

Zhu Long, who had just been captured, had a nervous breakdown and confessed an important piece of information: Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang, who were in the same breath as Zhujiazhuang, had already promised to send troops to support.

It's just that in the busy farming season, it takes some time to assemble Zhuang Ke Zhuang Ding, so they agreed that reinforcements would arrive within three days, and everyone would attack the Qingzhou army on three sides.

It's just that I didn't expect that Zhujiazhuang had 5,000 villages, hundreds of villagers, the wall was high and the grain was sufficient, and there were Pantuo Road and horse traps to rely on, and they didn't even hold it for a day.

Xu Shiyang estimated that Li Ying, the leader of Lijiazhuang, and Hu Cheng, the leader of Hujiazhuang, did not know the battle situation on Zhujiazhuang's side at this time, and they may still be leading their troops to bury their heads in the road, and now is the opportunity to give them a head-on attack.

Maybe you can also occupy Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang together by the way.

Gongsun Sheng, Xu Shisong and others immediately received the order, and the 6 new army battalion soldiers were divided into two routes, going north and south, and dealing with the reinforcements of Zhujiazhuang separately.

"Hey, we might be going to war this time."

Xu Shizhen, the leader of the Shenji Soldier squad under Zhang Ye's command, said to Private Zhang Youdi of the same squad:

"Listen to orders well, don't get distracted, you can save your life to have land and plant."
