Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Ironhead's Revenge

For two consecutive days, the Xingtian Army was always on the march, and with the movement of their legs, Longzhou City was also thrown farther and farther behind, and gradually marched into the territory of Qingyang Mansion.

On the sixth night of the ninth month of the seventh year of Chongzhen, the whole army of Xingtian Army entered the south of Qingyang Mansion 20 miles, and the Qingyang prefect immediately closed the city gate when he heard it, and strictly ordered the defenders to stick to Qingyang Mansion, and immediately forcibly recruited young men to ascend the city to defend the city, but I was afraid that this chaotic army that suddenly appeared in Qingyang attacked Qingyang Mansion, and the Qingyang City suddenly became a rumor, and everyone couldn't help but be in danger.

But what the Qingyang prefect didn't expect was that this chaotic army did not attack the city of Qingyang Mansion, but went around the city in the east of the city on the second day, and went straight to the north of the city, almost quietly passing through Qingyang Mansion under their noses, and for the identity of this chaotic army, the Qingyang prefect did not figure it out in the end, let alone dare to send troops out of the city to pursue this chaotic army, so frightened to watch this strange chaotic army walk over from the outside of Qingyang Mansion.

In the afternoon, the Xingtian army branched out to a Zhuangzi fifteen miles north of Qingyang Mansion and stopped, and several cavalry scouts reported to Xiao Tianjian: "General Qiyu! Ahead is Zhaojiazhuang! Please, the general decides! ”

Xiao Tianjian glanced sideways at the iron head that followed him and said, "Iron head!" It's time for you to go into battle today! ”

Nearly 2,000 soldiers and recruits of the Xingtian Army, even if they surrounded this Zhaojiazhuang, and the iron head wore heavy armor to take the lead in person, and ordered two sentinels to accompany him, and made a posture of launching a fierce attack on this Zhaojiazhuang.

Zhaojiazhuang is also a big village outside the city of Qingyang Mansion, although it is not as large as the scale of Lijiazhuang that the Xingtianjun once fought, but it also has a high wall, with a variety of complete guarding facilities, and the village also has nearly 300 Zhuang Ding, which is a famous local village.

What Zhao Bencai, the owner of Zhaojiazhuang, never expected was that outside Zhaojiazhuang, which was originally peaceful and quiet, suddenly a catastrophe fell from the sky, and such a strong chaotic army came and firmly surrounded his Zhuangzi.

When he heard the news and climbed the village wall to look out, he almost fainted on the spot, he did not see the chaotic army, and the pole often wandered around Zhaojiazhuang, but like the chaotic army in front of him, he saw it for the first time, just by looking at it, he almost scared his pants, and immediately sent someone to leave the village wall, went to the village to beg for mercy, and immediately said that he was willing to offer five hundred taels of silver, twenty pigs and sheep, and two hundred stones of grain, only to ask the rebel army outside the village to be satisfied and retreat.

It's a pity that his show of weakness didn't have the slightest effect, only to see a short man in iron armor slowly walked to the outside of the village gate, stood on his heels outside the village gate, and then slowly raised his head, revealing a dark face under the iron helmet, his eyes were full of anger, and he looked directly at Zhao Bencai on the village wall.

"Phew! Zhao Bencai! Do you still know who I am? The iron head pointed the single knife in his hand towards the Zhuang wall, and shouted angrily to Zhao Bencai who was standing on the Zhuang wall.

Zhao Bencai is about forty or fifty years old, he was born white and fat and very rich, but he didn't get to the time when his old eyes were dizzy, when he heard the shouting of the iron head, he hurriedly looked at the outside of the village, but after watching it for a long time, he suddenly gasped.

"You...... You...... You're not...... Isn't it an iron head? You're not...... Isn't it a long time ago? Zhao Bencai suddenly exclaimed.

Tietou showed a rare cruel smile on his face, and replied loudly to Zhao Bencai: "Yes, it's me!" It's a pity that I didn't die outside! Today, Lao Tzu will come to you to collect debts! Zhao Bencai, if you are smart, just open the door quickly and arrest you, I will only kill you alone, if you don't open the door, then I will lead the army into the village today, and I will slaughter you! ”

Zhao Bencai's legs suddenly weakened, and he almost fell to the ground again, but fortunately, someone grabbed his arm, and he stood firm again, and suddenly shouted: "Give me to resist them!" As long as you block them, I, Zhao Bencai, would rather scatter all my family wealth to reward you! Please, you must stop them! ”

At this time, many people on the wall of the village recognized the iron head, and they showed a look of surprise, they didn't expect that the iron head who was forced to leave Zhaojiazhuang by Zhao Bencai more than a year ago, not only did not starve to death outside, but became a general in the chaotic army, so everyone couldn't help but be surprised.

Two years ago, there was a drought in Shaanxi, and the Tietou family was a tenant of Zhao Bencai's family, because it was planted with a lack of water to irrigate the thin field, so that there was no harvest, but Zhao Bencai did not reduce the rent at all, but the iron-headed sister was robbed to pay off the debt, and after the iron-headed sister was ruined, the iron-headed sister was forced to hang herself that night, and the iron-headed family was also forced to die, so she had to abandon the rented land and fled outside. Later, I heard the news that Tietou's parents went out not long ago, and they were starved to death, and Tietou was nowhere to be found, I thought that Tietou had long since died and did not know where to die, but I didn't expect that today Tietou took so many thieves and moved back to Zhaojiazhuang to seek revenge.

This made all the Zhuang Ding in the Zhuangzi jump in shock, it was the first time they had seen such a large formation, especially when they saw that the thieves outside the village actually pushed the cannon to the front of the formation, pointing directly at the Zhuang Gate, and it scared many people to soften their legs on the spot.

Although Zhao Bencai hysterically shouted that he wanted to let them resist the thief army outside the village on the condition that his family wealth was scattered, but if he had money to pick up the yard, he had to spend his life! So many people didn't make a sound after hearing Zhao Bencai's shout, only some Zhuang Ding who had recently been recruited by Zhao Bencai from outside were a little nervous, and they wanted to get a big reward.

"Hugh is going to give him more nonsense! Iron Head! Attack the banker directly! Xiao Tianjian immediately shouted loudly to the iron head in the middle of the Chinese army.

And the two sentinels sent by Xiao Tianjian, each of them are all gearing up, ready to attack the village, for the iron head, the Xingtian army does not know the relationship between him and Xiao Tianjian, the iron head is the most trusted general on Xiao Tianjian's side, and the iron head has always been loyal to Xiao Tianjian, and has a good reputation in the Xingtian army, and has never done anything to bully people, although he rarely speaks on weekdays, but he is very respected by the people in the army.

Today, I heard that the Zhuangzi who passed through the iron-headed enemy's family, the iron-headed wanted to avenge his family, and of course such a cheap favor was to be given to the iron-headed, so they were all gearing up, and they would attack the village when the iron-headed gave an order.

Looking at the chaotic army led by Tietou, who was about to attack Zhuang, advanced like a wall to a stone's throw outside the village, Tietou raised his hand to stop the team attacking Zhuang, and shouted to those people on the Zhuang wall again: "The villagers in Zhuangzi have listened, my iron head only came to find Zhao Ben's revenge this time, you have nothing to do, I think you and I are neighbors, and Tietou can't bear to hurt you, as long as you don't help Zhao Bencai resist me, then after I Zhao Tietou enters the village, I will never offend you in the slightest, how many of us have Zhao Bencai killed, The big guys also know that it's worth working for him, and you yourself know it! The iron head has come to this, where to go, the villagers think for themselves, but if you want to raise the knife to us, then you will blame us for entering the village, not being merciful, killing! ”

The two sentinels who followed the iron head immediately shouted together: "Kill ......"

The villagers on the village wall were immediately startled, and their eyes flashed with even more frightened looks.

There is nothing remarkable about this battle, the iron head just led the crowd to rush, the resistance encountered can be said to be better than nothing, only a quarter of an hour, Zhaojiazhuang's Zhuang Gate was announced to be broken, a large number of soldiers outside the village will pour into the village like a tide, Zhao Bencai did not have time to run back to his mansion, he was hacked to death in the village, and Zhao Bencai's whole family, none of them were spared, all died under the chaotic knife of the Xingtian army who rushed into Zhuangzi.

When the Xingtianjun completely controlled Zhaojiazhuang, Tietou knelt in front of Xiao Tianjian with tears streaming down his face, and kowtowed a few times in a row, so far Tietou's wish was completely realized, avenging his family's blood and revenge, and Xingtianjun also obtained a lot of money and food from Zhao Bencai's family, supplementing the supplies that they had begun to shortage.

"Get up, Tietou, you got what you wanted, and I'm happy for you, we still have a long way to go, and you have to cheer up!" Xiao Tianjian pulled the iron head from the ground, patted him on the shoulder, and said to him.

Xingtianjun fulfilled his promise, after entering the village, he did not kill all the Zhuang Ding who laid down his arms in advance and did not resist, and he did not commit any crime in the poor families in the village, but he was not so merciful to a small number of people who insisted on resisting, although these people were later forced to surrender, but they were dragged out one by one and cut off their heads, and their family assets were confiscated.

This time alone, the Xingtian Army was provided with food for a few more days, which solved the problem they needed, at least they did not have to worry about the problem of food and straw starvation.

And some of the friends of the iron head of Zhaojiazhuang, seeing that the iron head of their village is so majestic, in their impression, the iron head used to be just an honest and wooden person, and now he can become a leader of the army, so he is quite envious, when the Xingtianjun left here the next day, Zhaojiazhuang actually had more than 20 young people, and simply chose to devote himself to Xiao Tianjian's work, and left here with the Xingtianjun, embarking on a journey full of unknowns.
