(Chapter 2 is here, and there will be another chapter in the afternoon!) Now it is more than 6,000 words, how can it reach more than 10,000 words in the afternoon, and do what you say! Brethren stand up! ）

Maybe it was the courage of Wu Dalie, a literati county, who inspired the officers and soldiers who defended the city and the palace guards, maybe it was because of the fear of the punishment of the heavenly army outside the city, or some other reason, in short, the defenders in the city also showed their courage beyond the norm this time, in short, after Xiao Tianjian led his troops to Yongning County, the second battalion and the third battalion carried out a strong attack on Yongning County for two days in a row, but failed to enter the city, and the officers and soldiers defending the city and the palace guards unexpectedly showed their courage, Braving the fierce artillery fire of the Xingtian Army, he was stunned and persisted for two days under the encouragement of Wu Dalie, and repelled the attacks of the Xingtian Army again and again.

The second and third battalions paid the price of two or three hundred casualties in the two days of attack, which made the morale of the two battalions somewhat depressed after repeated setbacks.

Xiao Tianjian didn't expect that the defenders of Yongning County would resist so fiercely, you must know that the equipment and tactics of his Xingtian Army have exceeded this era to a certain extent, and as far as he knows, the number of defenders in Yongning County is not very large, and they can actually withstand them for two days when they are absolutely at a disadvantage in various aspects.

So Xiao Tianjian couldn't help but start to worry a little, after all, this time he was alone in the hinterland of Henan, and whether he could open up the situation in Henan depends on the outcome of this battle, the money and food of the Wan'an Wangfu in the city are too critical for his Xingtian Army, before leaving, he has repeatedly discussed with Feng Gouzi, and then decided to fight Yongning County first, if it drags on here for too long, the Henan government will definitely send a large army to come to the rescue, in that case, He and his men and horses would find themselves in a situation where they would be attacked from the back, and eventually they would have to abandon the place and be driven into the mountains.

This is not as good as Shanxi, although when they set out from Shanxi, they carried relatively sufficient ammunition and materials, and also got a certain amount of grain and straw in Mianchi County, but for maintaining them so many thousands of soldiers and horses, their various materials are still quite limited at present, once they are driven into the mountains, then it will be difficult for them to spend this winter, and they come here to belong to the guest army, and the local people do not know them, so they can't expect the people to help them firmly support them, Once the situation develops to that point, then his risk of leading the army into Henan this time may become a joke.

After thinking of this, Xiao Tianjian couldn't sit still, and after collecting the troops the next day, he directly summoned Luo Li, Li Xuanzhu and others to him, and asked them unceremoniously: "You tell me today, how long will it take to capture Yongning County, I can honestly tell you, the materials we brought this time are very limited, and we can't afford to be consumed so much here, if you can't do it, then say it as soon as possible, you come down to rest, and I will go on it myself!" ”

Luo Li and Li Xuanzhu, Jiang Cheng, Zhao Erdonkey and other generals, all of them were ashamed, and before Xiao Tianjian could continue, Luo Li and Li Xuanzhu immediately stood up, Luo Li rushed to the front and said loudly: "General, it is our incompetence, the general can rest assured, early tomorrow morning, he will personally lead his troops into battle, if he can't take this Yongning County tomorrow, he will come to see the general!" ”

Li Xuanzhu also said loudly: "General, it is incompetent, and tomorrow he will personally lead his troops to attack the city, so as to take Yongning County in a battle tomorrow!" If not, the last general will go to the bottom and go down to be a small soldier! ”

Xiao Tianjian swept his generals with a cold face, nodded and said, "Okay!" Then I will give you another day tomorrow, if you still can't take the county seat of Yongning, then the day after tomorrow I will personally take the teaching camp to attack the city! Go down and get ready! ”

The generals immediately saluted, and then Yuguan withdrew from Xiao Tianjian's big tent, at this time Situ Liang suddenly hurriedly walked into the tent, and said loudly after saluting Xiao Tianjian: "General Qiyu, twenty miles north of the city, I found a large group of wandering people coming in the direction of the county seat, and they sent a few people to ask to see the general!" ”

Xiao Tianjian nodded and was not surprised, but asked Situ Liang, "Have you asked them where they came?" In addition, are there any movements of the officers and troops in the direction of Luoyang and Shaanzhou? ”

Situ Liang immediately replied: "General Qiyu, the person who came reported that it was Yidougu's subordinates, as for the officers and troops in the direction of Luoyang and Shaanzhou, at the moment, our scouts have not found any movement!" ”

"Ittoya? Hum! He wants to get a piece of the pie! Bring his men here! After Xiao Tianjian turned around the tent with his hands behind his back, he sneered and instructed Situ Liang.

Not long after, a tall man dressed in nondescript clothes was brought into Xiao Tianjian's tent by Situ Liang, this tall man wore a scribe's shirt on his body, and the hem was lifted into a copper buckle around his waist, and he wore a pair of red bloomers underneath, with a goatee, as soon as he saw Xiao Tianjian, he showed a sneer and hugged his fist to Xiao Tianjian: "In the lower high mountain, I have seen the general!" ”

Xiao Tianjian glanced at this tall mountain, the expression on his face was very cold, and after nodding slightly, he asked him indifferently: "Hard work!" I wonder why my brother came here to see me? ”

This tall mountain is also thick-skinned, and continues to say to Xiao Tianjian with a smiling face: "The little one is on the order of my family's palm plate Yidou Gu to come to visit the general!" My family boss heard that your army was coming to attack Yongning County, and specially led 7,000 troops to help your army, and now it has reached the Duyang River twenty miles north of the city, so he sent a small one to inform the general before, so as not to have any misunderstanding! ”

Xiao Tianjian sneered in his heart, this Yidougu is not stupid, seeing that their Xingtian Army is going to take Yongning County, he took people to come and want to share some of the spoils of war back, this is for them, but a profitable business, if it is replaced by others, they will definitely be happy to see it come to help in Yidougu, so that they can strengthen the momentum, and for the future foothold in Henan, there will be a little benefit, but for Xiao Tianjian, he doesn't see it that way, although Yongning County has resisted fiercely in the past two days, But by the end of this evening, it could still be seen that the defenders in the city had still reached the end of the crossbow, and they couldn't hold on anymore.

What's more, Xiao Tianjian has already learned the details of Yidougu through the detailed work of Feng Gouzi's subordinates, and knows that this person can only be called a giant, not a hero at all, and his subordinates are even more corrupt in military discipline, and they don't dare to fight hard with the officials and soldiers, but they are extremely cruel to the people, and they are quite a set, and the people are either attached to them or slaughtered by them, and they are bastards who live by bullying the people, will never join them in calling them brothers.

So he said coldly: "Then thank you big boss, we first arrived in your land, and we haven't had time to visit your big boss, but you rushed over first!" However, it is not difficult to fight Yongning County, this time I will not bother you, but the surrounding situation is now chaotic, you should go back quickly, tell you to take charge of the plate, restrain your subordinates, don't take advantage of the chaos to harm the people, and don't continue to get close to the county seat, the surrounding area of the county is now the war zone of our Xingtian Army, don't have any conflict with your department because of this! As for the matter here, you don't have to worry about it! After we take Yongning County another day, I will go to visit you in charge!" Someone, send off! ”

This tall mountain didn't expect Xiao Tianjian to be so cold to them, he didn't put them in his eyes at all, and what he said was enough, let them turn around and go back, don't make trouble in this area, and don't give them a chance to share in Yongning County at all.

So he immediately wanted to continue talking, but the iron-headed tiger came over with a tiger face, stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, and said coldly: "This brother, our general still has military affairs, please!" ”

Gao Dashan paused for a moment, but still hugged his fist at Xiao Tianjian and said: "Xiao is in charge, it's not appropriate to do this, after all, this area is our territory, you guys are so broken, you want to take Yongning County without saying a word, and you always want to say hello to us!" What's more, you can fight this Yongning County, can't we come to fight? Why didn't Master Xiao allow us to come? ”

Xiao Tianjian turned around and stared coldly at this tall mountain, his cold eyes made Gao Dashan can't help but shrink his neck, and then he spoke: "Since you say so, then let me ask you, you have also been in this area for many years, but why don't you fight in this Yongning County?" What did you do before we came? Why did you wait for us to come to Yongning County, and you hurried over? Everyone understands people, there is no need to say more nonsense, our Xingtian Army started an incident for the poor people in the world, and what have you done in this area? Have you done anything for the common people other than burning, killing and looting? You go back and tell you that you are in charge of the plate, the Tao is not the same, this Yongning County will be the territory of our Xingtian Army in the future, if he knows each other, or he will lead the crowd to accept my reorganization, I will give him a chance, let him be a rich man within my jurisdiction! Either lead the troops to leave here quickly, my Xiao Mouyan has come to this point, you don't have to say anything more! Drop-off! ”

"You...... You're too ignorant of lifting, aren't you? You...... Why are you ......" Gao Dashan was suddenly angry by Xiao Tianjian, one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas went out of his body, and he couldn't help but shout to Xiao Tianjian.

Iron Head glared, pressed one hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist, grasped the handle tightly, and shouted to him coldly: "Didn't you hear what our general said? Without further ado, get out of here! ”

Gao Dashan was forced to chill by the iron head, so he had no choice but to turn his head and walk towards the outside of the big tent, saying as he walked: "Okay! You're amazing! Let's see! ”

After Xiao Tianjian watched the guards escort this tall mountain out of the big tent, he immediately ordered Tietou: "Pass the order to Liu Yaoben, let him lead the three sentinels of the training camp to move north tonight, and block these bandits in Yidougu for me at the crossing of the Yang River!" They must not cross the river and get close to the county seat! If they don't know each other, beat them back for me!" Picking peaches actually picked Lao Tzu's head, there is no such cheap thing! Hum! In addition, tell Situ Liang to gather his cavalry team, keep an eye on Yidougu for me, and wait for us to clean up their gang of bandits! ”

Liu Yao was depressed about the fact that he had nothing to do with the teaching camp in the past few days, and when he received Xiao Tianjian's order, he immediately jumped up, shouted to several officers under him, and conveyed Xiao Tianjian's order to them.

The officers of this group of training battalions are all about seventeen years old, don't look at their age, but for Xiao Tianjian's orders, these guys have never discounted at all, and they have received quite full military training in the juvenile battalion in recent years, and everyone's quality is quite good, and they are even more vigorous and resolute, as soon as they receive the order, they start to assemble the soldiers and horses without saying a word, and the three sentinels and horses only took less than a quarter of an hour to assemble outside.

Liu Yaoben turned over his horse, galloped to the front of the team, and shouted to the three sentinels under the light of the torches: "The general has an order, so that I will rush to the side of the Duyang River overnight tonight to set up defenses, and cheer up!" Let's go! ”

The team of more than 700 people was like a fire dragon in a short time, throwing off the big stride towards the direction of crossing the Yanghe River in the north of the county.
