This night victory was so close to the officers and soldiers. The first team climbed the rope hanging from the city and quietly went up to the city, and more than 100 people had already climbed the city before they were discovered by the defender patrols. As the follow-up of the pioneer team continued to climb the city wall, they rushed along the city wall to the city gate, and the rebel army who was caught off guard was not their opponent at all, and they were soon rushed to the city gate. They had even touched the winch of the jack gate at the city gate, but as the rebels fought back desperately, the city gate became a melee, and no one was able to drive the other party out.

At this time, if there was a steady stream of follow-up troops, the first team could add more force to crush the rebels, but they were embarrassed to find that no one had landed in the city again, and at the same time, there were more than a thousand officers and soldiers under the city wall looking at the city, because the rope hanging down was broken and could not go up.

In the end, when the rebels dispatched the infantry armor and more troops, the battle was no longer in suspense. The first team was beaten out of the city step by step, compressed backwards step by step, and finally had to find some ropes to escape from the city.

Judging from the course of the battle, this is not a trap for the rebels, as long as the rope is not broken, the first team can open the city gate. Some people who sacrificed the city ran back with them, which also proved that this time it was not a trap made by the rebels. The key to failure lies in the broken rope. Seven ropes have all been broken, and this is no accident.

As a result, the people who boarded the team first were separated and interrogated, and the reason for the rope was found to be broken, which is really laughable: the rope was cut by the officers and soldiers of the first team themselves.

When Li Buqi learned that this was the case, he almost looked up to the sky and shouted: He is talking about fasting!

After careful questioning, I realized that the original was to recruit a death squad to pay a reward, but the reward was certain, and the more people who went to the city, the less reward each person shared, so a few people who boarded the city first saw that the people in front had rushed to the city pass, and cut the rope in order to prevent the people behind from coming up.

The army that fights for money is really unreliable! Li Buqi made up his mind to train a reliable cavalry himself. But in the strange dynasty of the Great Song Dynasty, if you want to train your own soldiers, you are looking for death. Li Bu turned his eyes and thought about it: If you don't let yourself train, then practice something else.

When he turned around, he asked people to find the three people who had run out of Xiancheng, sat them down, and asked, "How many of you are locals in Beizhou?" ”

The three of them all nodded, and Li Buqi said: "Hebei is reluctant to leave Gyeonggi, and has always stationed a large army, even if there were traitors in the past, it was not a big deal. But why is it so out of control this time? The official has been puzzled, you may explain the confusion to the official? ”

The three of them lowered their heads and did not speak when they heard Li Buqi's questioning. Those who dare to sacrifice the city should have some courage and scheming, and if they don't speak, it means that they have great concerns. Li Buqi said: "You have probably heard of the name of this official. My name is Li Buqi. ”

At this sign-up, all three of them immediately raised their heads. Li Buqi then comforted them: "Don't worry, no matter what you say is right or wrong, it will be here for me, and I can't hold you accountable." ”

A lean man who was immediately led by him said: "It turned out to be a big official Li, and we have heard of your name for a long time." I didn't know that it was the official in front of me just now, so I didn't dare to say some things, and I asked the official to forgive me. ”

Li Buqi smiled and said: "After the battle in Beizhou, there must be an explanation for how the official family will be in the future." You have told me the truth about Beizhou, and I can also say a few words in front of the officials, so that the people of Beizhou will suffer less. ”

The lean man said: "That's a good feeling, I thank the officials for the people of Beizhou." ”

Knowing who Li Buqi was, the three men opened the conversation box with a word from you and me. According to them, the reasons for the mutiny in Beizhou were all on the original Beizhou governor Zhang Deyi.

This Zhang Deyi is insatiable, "take all kinds of gold and silver silk objects, and refuse to return the money, harming all walks of life", and "ignore the business every day, just ask for money", and the people of Beizhou scolded him for "Qiluo wrapped in real beasts, and raised livestock with delicacies". Moreover, he was extremely bold, and coveted all the food and salary of the garrison, and did not pay a single grain and rice for three months, and the sergeant went to ask for it, but he beat him out, so the enraged soldiers mutinied. There was already Maitreya in the army, and the Maitreya religion in Hebei became like this when it was mixed like this.

Li Buqi nodded secretly: This matter can be used.

The next nearly half a month after that can only be described as boring. Every day, a large number of people brought in a large number of wood, firewood and grass, and Ming Ho commanded to use these things to build Qucheng. Naturally, the rebels would not watch the completion of Qucheng, so they used bed crossbows, stone cannons, and bows to shoot at the officers and soldiers repairing the city, and the officers and soldiers always suffered one or two hundred casualties every day. The official army also used the same weapons to suppress the rebels, so the rebels built a wooden "war shed" at the head of the city to defend the bows and crossbows of the official army. However, there were many people on the side of the official army, and there was Ming Ho personally supervising the work, and Qucheng continued to extend to the city wall of Beizhou.

What made Li Buqi more and more worried was that the rebels did not try to attack Qucheng once, but tried to burn the building cars under construction in the south of the city, which was obviously abnormal. When he reminded Ming Hao, the old man Ming didn't think so, saying that the thief must have been frightened by the ambush in the stone cannon that went out of the city last time, so he didn't dare to go out of the city.

Myeongho is the chief official, and Li Buqi has no choice but to watch him turn himself into a joke step by step.

And Old Man Ming's life doesn't seem to be easy. His request for the Privy Council to send troops to support again was rejected, and the newly made Divine Arm Bow was only five hundred, and the information transmitted from Bianliang showed that the old man Ming and the privy envoy Xia Zhu did not deal with each other, and it seemed that Xia Zhu was going to see him laugh. However, this situation obviously made the old man stubborn, supervising the construction of Qucheng day and night, and even the materials for building the building car were deducted and filled in Qucheng.

Finally, on the ninth day of the first month, the two Qucheng repaired the moat, and more than 20 meters to reach the head of the city, the old man of Ming ordered the army to dispatch, and the four-sided project covered the Qucheng to advance, so the city was on and under the city for another day of attack and defense, the Qucheng was sprinkled with the blood that was frozen into ice, and the corpses of the officers and soldiers were piled up below, and several big trees were carried to the head of the city and put on the city wall.

Immediately, a red flag at the head of Qucheng was danced. "It's done!" Myeongho shouted, almost throwing the telescope out of his hand. He turned his head to the flag officer and shouted angrily: "Quick! Beat the drums! All the army is attacking! Reward for the first to arrive! ”

Immediately the drums became more and more high-pitched, more and more urgent, the horn sounded one after another, the official army brigade began to move, slowly approaching the city wall, the people in front had already rushed to Qucheng, but at this moment, the city suddenly lit up with a firelight, and then many fireballs were thrown towards Qucheng, and immediately burst out after touching Qucheng. In winter, the north wind blows, and the fire takes advantage of the wind and immediately spreads along the city. Before the attacking troops had received the order to halt their advance, the men on Qucheng turned and fled back, stirring up a mess at once.

Wang Xin hurriedly looked back at Myeongho and waited for him to give an order, but saw that Myungho was just standing there dumbfounded, completely unresponsive. He hurriedly shouted twice, and seeing that Myeongho did not respond, he had to order the troops to retreat, and then quietly asked people to go to the south of the city to ask Li not to give up.

When Li Buqi turned to the south of the city, he saw that the two Qucheng had been burned into two fire dragons, and it was difficult to extinguish them. He hurriedly asked, "What about appeasement?" ”

Wang Xin said: "Calm the overwork, let people go back to rest." Now, please ask Li Junjian what to do? ”

"What? Appeasement was not ordered? ”

"Pacifying didn't say whether to continue the attack or withdraw the troops, so I went back to the camp."

Li Bu gave up his responsibility for this matter, he went to the Chinese army to ask for the general order to withdraw the army, and then together with Wang Xin, he commanded the army to withdraw to the camp. Looking at the sky-high fire under the city wall, Li Bu grinned darkly: Now it's time to use my method, right?
