Cao Bianjiao was entangled. In all fairness, he got along well with everyone these days, and he was convinced that Moli would lead this elite revival army to Liaodong and drive the Tartars back to his hometown, and he was very eager for this day to come.

But now he wants him to go to war with officers and soldiers, which makes Cao Bianjiao a little difficult to accept, because he himself is an officer and soldier.

Cao Bianjiao thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Those who become big things are not informal, in order to be able to kill the Tartars with your brothers and serve the country with loyalty, Cao Mou is not sorry to be infamy! Let the adults call the shots, and I just hope that the brothers will kill as little as possible! ”

"This is natural, we are all Han Chinese, these contradictions between us and the government are internal contradictions, and we will sit down and solve them one day, but for the Tartars, what I want to emphasize is that we will never accept the surrender of the Tartars in the future!" Mo Li's eyes shot a resolute and cold light.

"Yes! My lord! Everyone said in unison.

"Now, let's discuss the specifics of the march into Lingchuan City......" Mo Li pointed to a point on a simple map that had been hand-drawn earlier, and began to dispatch troops.

Heiyun Village is about 50 miles away from Lingchuan City, and this area is dominated by high mountains and dense forests, sparsely populated, and is convenient for marching.

And if Lingchuan City is captured, the main force can be moved to Lingchuan City, leaving a partial division in Heiyun Village, and if there is a foreign enemy to attack Lingchuan City, the partial division left in Heiyun Village can send troops to help.

If the enemy wants to attack Heiyun Village, he must pass under Lingchuan City before he can enter the army. In this way, the APA will have greater initiative.

He Zhenbei had already discovered that Han Chong had closed his house all day after escaping back to Lingchuan from Heiyun Village, and was deeply afraid that the bandits would come to attack Lingchuan City, so he ordered the soldiers guarding the city to strictly check the people entering and leaving Lingchuan, and immediately close the city gate as soon as there was any trouble.

The city wall of Lingchuan is tall and strong, and there are more than a dozen thousand pounds of Franco cannons installed on the city wall, if it is a strong attack, the revival army does not have heavy artillery now, even if it can be attacked, it will also be a heavy loss. Well, you'll have to come up with a plan.

Mo Li discussed with Guan Feng, Cao Bianjiao, Du Geng and others for most of the night, and Lin Guo added lamp oil to the oil lamp in the Juyi Hall several times.

The next day, Moli sent Cheng Qingzhu, He Zhenbei, Tang Botao and others to lead dozens of people to infiltrate Lingchuan City in batches to respond internally.

The rest of the soldiers trained as usual in the morning, and after lunch, they all slept soundly.

After dinner, Moli sent Ma Jinzhong as the vanguard and led 800 soldiers towards Lingchuan City. And he personally led an army of 2,000 to follow, preparing to attack Lingchuan City at night.

In the middle of the night, the army rushed to the city of Lingchuan and began to prepare for the siege.

Mo Li asked the soldiers to hold three or four torches each, and from a distance, the team of 3,000 people looked like there were tens of thousands of people, and the momentum was very huge.

Han Chong received the report from the soldiers, and hurriedly led the soldiers to catch up with the city to take a look, only to see that the mountains were full of torches in the distance, and the enemy forces were only afraid of tens of thousands of people, and they were heading towards Lingchuan City at full speed.

Han Chong almost fell down from the city in fright. Damn, these bandits are finally coming to attack the city! The thing he feared the most in the past few days has happened! But aren't there only two or three thousand bandits in Heiyun Village? How can there be so many?

Han Chong panicked for a while. Why hasn't this imperial army come yet? It's been almost half a month since this news was reported. Today, there are only seven or eight hundred soldiers in Lingchuan City, plus more than 100 people in his own private armed courtyard, and there are only 1,000 people in the full battle, how can he defeat the tens of thousands of bandits on the other side? How can Lingchuan City be defended?

Although Han Chong has also mobilized some people in the city to participate in the defense of the city these days, Lingchuan is originally a small place with a small population, and he Han Chong's reputation in the local area is notorious, so there are very few people who are willing to respond. In the end, it is easy to say that he used various means to finally get him to gather 2,000 people to help defend the city.

After Ma Jinzhong's vanguard troops arrived at the city of Lingchuan, they lined up in an array four or five miles away from the city, and then Ma Jinzhong shouted loudly: "Brothers in the city, listen! We are from the Chinese Renaissance Army! Not bandits!

Our Lord Mo said that as long as you surrender obediently, our Lord Mo can not blame the past, and you can still live the life you want! But if you don't surrender, hum ......"

Before Ma Jinzhong's words fell, Han Chong shouted at the head of the city: "Brothers, don't listen to him, can the bandits' words be trusted?" They kill people like hemp, and if you believe the bandits to let them in, they will cook you and eat them! Your women will be their playthings, too! And he will become a sinner of the Ming Dynasty! As long as Lingchuan City is guarded, the imperial court will have a big reward! ”

"Joke! Our Renaissance Army is strictly disciplined, how can it be compared to bandits? And we also know that you Han Chong have bullied men and women and the common people in Lingchuan all these years, forcing how many ** ions to break up and ruin? Our revival army is for the Ming Dynasty to get rid of dog officials like you who are causing trouble to the people!

Master Mo said, it is only Han Chong who does evil, and it has nothing to do with anyone else, no matter who takes down Han Chong, the wicked person, our Lord Mo will reward him with a hundred taels of gold! Ma Jinzhong said loudly, with a wave of his hand, several soldiers behind him lifted out a large frame, which was full of yellow and golden gold.

"The gold is here! Brothers, as long as you catch Han Chong and open the city gate, this gold is yours! Ma Jinzhong continued to say loudly. Otherwise, do you see the army behind? Our army of 10,000 will raze Lingchuan Castle to the ground! Give you a stick of incense time, think about it! ”

"Brothers, don't be fooled! Bandits are deceptive, how can they have tens of thousands of people! Big guys, don't be fooled by them! The walls of Lingchuan City are tall and impregnable, how could they attack them with a gang of small thieves! Han Chong shouted inwardly: "The imperial army is already on the way, Keri will arrive, and these bandits will definitely be killed in one fell swoop!" As long as we persevere, we can make great achievements! ”

The soldiers guarding the city saw the torches constantly pouring outside the city, and they were already frightened, and they were encouraged by Ma Jinzhong and others for a while, and they had no intention of holding on, after all, the golden gold was in front of them, who didn't blush?

Besides, in addition to Han Chong's more than 100 die-hard subordinates, none of these soldiers are in the mood to accompany Han County's order to defend to the death, usually Han County's order is rampant, and the people are already complaining, these soldiers are also poor people from the bottom, who will have a good impression of him? It's just that I dare to be angry but don't dare to speak.

As for the two thousand people, needless to say, they were originally forcibly brought in by Han Chong to assist in defending the city, and they were usually the people who were used to being oppressed by Han Chong. If it weren't for the fear of Han Chongguan's identity, he would have dispersed in a hurry.

Han Chong was afraid that his soldiers and civilians would really not be able to resist the temptation of gold or the intimidation of the bandits, and he was deeply afraid that they would really open the city gate and let the bandits enter the city, so he sent his own cronies to patrol back and forth, and did not dare to relax all night.

However, Moli's army set up camp under the city, and sent people to encourage the soldiers defending the city to surrender in turn, and occasionally launched several feints, but they only heard the sound of war drums and the earth-shattering shouts of killing, but did not see the soldiers rushing into the range of the cannons, and only shouted from afar.

But every time it made the soldiers defending the city nervous, but they were helpless.

Most of the soldiers of the Baath Army rested in the camp to recuperate.
