After Li Dingguo, who came out of the darkness, threw the still smoking rifle in his hand to the guards behind him, he shouted loudly to the petitioning officers and soldiers who suddenly quieted down outside the rejection horse: "Lord Zhou has heard your movements, although I don't know what you want to do, but for the Ming soldiers, one of the most basic requirements is to abide by military discipline. Wild Sand Literature Network

Although the military discipline of the garrison army was much more lenient than that of the field army, if more than 50 people left the camp without the approval of the Governor's Office, it could be regarded as a rebellion. This week, Lord Zhou has decided to give you a chance, from now on, to return to the camp within an hour, and Lord Zhou will forgive you for your sins. Those who refuse to return to the barracks after an hour will be arrested and dealt with as rebels..."

Under Li Dingguo's notice, some of the soldiers who came to petition just followed the soldiers who came out to make trouble, and they couldn't help but retreat to the rear, as if they didn't want to be regarded as chaotic soldiers by the Governor's Office.

Seeing that the soldiers on the side began to retreat, Yang Zhenwei immediately interrupted Li Dingguo's words and said: "We are here to present to Chief of Staff Zhou, you don't want to coax us back to the camp to settle the account, Chief of Staff Zhou does not come out today to give us a promise, we will not go anywhere." ”

After Yang Zhenwei's loud announcement, Jiang Lin also led his cronies and subordinates to shout loudly to prevent Li Dingguo from speaking out to persuade these petitioning soldiers again.

Seeing that the order at the scene began to get out of control, Li Dingguo finally changed his tone and shouted: "If you have to see Lord Zhou, then elect representatives and continue to rush the Governor's Mansion like this, then you are rebelling..."

Hearing that Li Dingguo asked them to elect deputies to enter, Yang Zhenwei knew that it was going to be bad, and if he selected a representative of dozens of people to enter the Governor's Mansion, wouldn't he let the other party catch turtles in the urn, and he naturally did not dare to enter the Governor's Mansion like this.

So Yang Zhenwei continued to interrupt Li Dingguo's persuasion, and shouted loudly to the surrounding subordinates: "This person is just a lieutenant, what qualifications does he have to stop us and prevent us from going to see Lord Zhou?"

Brothers, let's rush up together, I don't believe they dare to shoot, if we don't see Chief of Staff Zhou today to ask for clarification, we will never disperse. Everybody rush forward, don't listen to this stinky kid's nonsense..."

Under the instructions of Yang Zhenwei and Jiang Lin, their cronies and subordinates rushed towards the rejection horse with the surrounding soldiers, and at the same time, they made loud noises to isolate the shouts from the Governor's Mansion, trying to create a conflict between the two sides first.

The captain of the guard squad standing next to Li Dingguo looked at these petitioning officers and soldiers who rushed towards him, and his face couldn't help but change slightly, but he still kept calm and asked Li Dingguo: "Lieutenant Li, do you want to shoot?" ”

Li Dingguo looked at the officers and soldiers who began to climb up to reject the horse, shook his head and said, "No, first retreat to the square in the back, and then give them another chance to disband automatically..."

Yang Zhenwei and Jiang Lin, who were hiding in the crowd, suddenly became emboldened after watching the more than 30 defenders behind the rejection of the horse turn away. Jiang Lin took advantage of the situation and rushed to the rejected horse that was pushed in front, and then turned back and shouted to everyone: "They ran, see no, they ran." They didn't dare to shoot, and the brothers rushed in, and today we have to ask the Governor's Mansion to give us an explanation..."

With the instigation of the generals, the leadership of the border people, and the withdrawal of the defenders on the opposite side, finally made these soldiers who originally just wanted to come to petition, there have been some changes in their psychology, and it seems that the Governor's Mansion is not so terrible, so many of them are making trouble together, even the imperial court has to give in.

As soon as this person's mentality changed, he became unscrupulous when he acted. Some of the soldiers who were still cowering just now rushed to the front of the team as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, moved away and rushed towards the alley.

Seeing that these soldiers gradually became bolder, Yang Zhenwei and Jiang Lin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As generals of the old army, they knew very well the character of these subordinates. In Pingli, these soldiers will probably only go against the grain, silently endure the humiliation and oppression they inflicted.

But at some point, when these soldiers are generally agitated, they will erupt, and the serious ones will develop into battalion roars. When the soldiers fall into this hysterical madness, they will not only attack each other, but even dare to attack the generals who come forward to impeach them.

When encountering this situation, even the generals who are usually quite strict under the emperor can only wait for these soldiers to vent their grievances before entering the barracks to clean up the mess.

As for when these soldiers were excited, no one could persuade them not to move. Yang Zhenwei was expecting that these subordinates would lose their minds when they clashed with the defenders of the Governor's Mansion, so that they would completely oppose the imperial court.

In this way, the soldiers of the garrison army can only follow the road of the commander to the end in the future, and they no longer have to worry about any half-hearted actions of these soldiers when the imperial court issues an order to appease them.

As for how to eliminate the agitation of these soldiers after capturing the Governor's Mansion, Yang Zhenwei has already thought about it, it is nothing more than letting them rob the residents in the city, which will naturally eliminate the resentment in their hearts.

Although the gentry and marshal of Datong had discussed before, they wanted to restrain the military discipline of the rebels. But the inhabitants of the city are not all gentry, and the marshal has nothing to say about robbing the property of the common people.

Everyone is born and dies for the big handsome, if you can't even drink the soup, who will bird the order of the big handsome.

Just when Yang Zhenwei was thinking about how to rob the residential area in the city, he suddenly found that the team had stopped again. He couldn't help but look up and look ahead with Jiang Lin.

At this time, they were about to walk out of the alley, and in front of them was the small square in front of the governor's mansion. But unlike the dark alleys, several bonfires have been lit in this square, illuminating the whole square as bright as day.

Suddenly walking from the darkness to such a bright place, everyone felt a little blurred tears for a while, and it took them a while to get used to the light in the square. Only then did Yang Zhenwei realize why the officers and soldiers in front of the team stopped.

On the side of the square with the Governor's Mansion back, hundreds of guards were lined up, rifles aimed at the exit of the alley. In the face of so many guns, the officers and soldiers in front of the team naturally calmed down and stopped.

At the same time, Wednesday was holding a funnel megaphone made of tin to his lips and was shouting to them: "... Brothers of the garrison, you are in a very dangerous situation.

Do you know that your current behavior is, to put it mildly, a rebellion, or at worst, a provocation to the majesty of law and order in the army.

Now, in the name of the Chief of Staff of the Datong Governor's Office, I order you to immediately disband your team and return to the barracks, and wait for the Governor's Office to send someone to investigate tonight's incident. Otherwise, I will have to exercise the power given to me by the Imperial Court to disperse you by force..."

Seeing the posture of the opposing side, many of the officers and soldiers of the garrison who had come to their senses had already begun to retreat, and after hearing Wednesday's persuasion, some people began to try to retreat back into the alley.

Even Jiang Lin couldn't help but be a little timid when she saw this scene, and whispered to Yang Zhenwei: "Oh no, the Governor's Mansion seems to have been prepared, didn't someone betray us?" Shall we send someone to ask the marshal first, and then make a plan? ”

Yang Zhenwei suddenly refuted in a dissatisfied whisper: "If we retreat now, how can we move these soldiers?" Without these soldiers following us, the Governor would have to send a small team to arrest us all. Will the court still be able to spare us then? ”

After drinking Jiang Lin back, Yang Zhenwei shouted to his subordinates: "Chief of Staff Zhou is in front, everyone rushed up and asked him to give an explanation, can a few muskets scare us?"

With the drought so severe this year, how can we feed our families if we don't improve the treatment of our brothers? Instead of watching his family starve to death, it is better to die at gunpoint in the imperial court..."

Under the command of Yang Zhenwei, his cronies and subordinates who were mixed with Jiang Lin in the team finally changed their faces, took out the weapons hidden on them, and coerced the soldiers on the side to rush towards the north of the square, and kept shouting in their mouths, demanding justice and other remarks.

Obviously, Yang Zhenwei planned to use ordinary soldiers as a cover to approach the guards, and then wait for the opportunity to rush into the formation and fight with the other party.

Unlike the field army, the duties of the garrison army have been reduced from many combat tasks, but many tasks for maintaining public order have been added. Therefore, the difference in the weapons equipped between the two sides seems to be too large.

The garrison is still using equipment mainly cold weapons, while the field army has almost achieved firearms. This makes the long-range strike weapons brought by Yang Zhenwei and his party, in addition to the Franc cannon, dozens of infantry bows are more powerful.

As for the old arquebuses and three-eyed guns, they were inconvenient to use and difficult to hide, so they were placed in the rear, together with the Franc cannon.

Yang Zhenwei didn't think about storming the Governor's Mansion at the beginning, so he divided the team into two teams, the front team was about 1,500 people, which was used to lure Wednesday out of the house, and the back team was about 4 or 500 people, which was used to receive and serve as a reserve.

It's just that he didn't expect that his enemy's strategy was unsuccessful, and now the front team is blocked in the alley again. Therefore, it had to be taken to let the front team charge, so as to make room for the back team to attack.

At this time, Yang Zhenwei hoped that the other party would hesitate for half a minute or a minute, so that they could approach the guards lined up in the Governor's Mansion.

Wednesday watched as the garrison still walked forward despite his warning, and finally shook his head and said to the major commander on the side: "Let's start, it's up to you next..."
