……

Early the next morning, the Red Turban Army, which had rested for a day, set out, and the Red Turban Army, which was already a huge force, reached an astonishing 20,000 troops after being absorbed and taken prisoners. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

And what's even more ironic is that after defeating the 30,000 army of Heguo, the problem of the Red Turban Army's armor has also been solved, and now in addition to those prisoners who were temporarily recruited, the rest of the Red Turban Army is not fully armored, and even the originally scarce iron armor can be popularized in the Red Turban Army.

It can be said that if it weren't for the fact that the Red Turban Army still wears a red scarf on its head and wakes the banner of the Red Turban Army, it is estimated that this army may really be regarded as officers and soldiers, because at a glance, most of the nearly 20,000 troops are wearing armor in the style of officers and soldiers.

And because the only army that could stop the Red Turban Army, such as Heguo, had been defeated, the Red Turban Army, which had high morale, did not encounter any resistance at all along the way, and arrived ten miles away from Shangcai City in the evening of the next day.

The army was stationed here, rested for the night, and the next day the city was attacked.

……

In the evening, in Shangcai City, an inconspicuous small courtyard near the East City Gate, Liu Ergou brought more than a dozen people who had the same experience as him here.

After the group entered the courtyard, they found that there was no one in the courtyard, so a somewhat grumpy person couldn't help but ask: "Liu Ergou, you said that there is a way for us to take revenge, this is the way you said." A broken yard without a ghost! ”

When Liu Ergou, who was originally extremely timid, heard this, he snorted coldly with disdain, looked at the sturdy man and said: "Liu Daniu, what are you anxious about, the adults will come later, do you think I will lie to you like that!" ”

The man named Liu Daniu, when he heard Liu Ergou's words, glanced at Liu Ergou, who was a little crazy, sighed, and didn't say anything. Seeing this, the others in the courtyard did not speak again, but sat on the ground one by one and waited.

However, two quarters of an hour have passed, and no one has appeared, just when Liu Daniu and they were a little impatient to wait, the door squeak~~, and was pushed open, and when they looked closely, they saw a man dressed in a hundred households walking in surrounded by four guards.

When the people in the courtyard saw the man coming in, they immediately stood up from the ground, and clasped their fists at the man and said, "Meet Xue Baihu." ”

Seeing this, Xue Baihu also waved his hand and said to these people: "We are all the same people, so there is no need to be like this, let's be polite." ”

But after everyone was exempted, it was the man named Liu Daniu who stood up first and asked, "Xue Baihu, can you really take us to take revenge?" ”

When Xue Baihu heard this, he glanced at him, looked at them in an extremely serious tone and said, "Of course, not only do I want to help you avenge you, but I also want to take you to slaughter that bastard with your own hands." Just tonight. But I just don't know if you have the guts! ”

The dozen or so men looked at Xue Baihu's firm and hateful eyes, and then they, under the leadership of Liu Daniu, swore to Xue Baihu together: "In this way, we must swear to follow the lord to the death." ”

Seeing this, Xue Baihu said with a smile on his face: "Okay! In that case, let the brothers all come out. ”

As soon as Xue Baihu's words fell, he saw that in the big room in the courtyard, dozens of men with weapons suddenly poured out, and there were all kinds of people among these men, there were soldiers like Liu Daniu, and there were others, but they all had one thing in common, that is, they all tied red scarves on their heads.

Seeing this, Liu Daniu's eyes when they looked at Xue Baihu suddenly became a little different.

But Xue Baihu didn't care about this, just took some red cloth strips and handed them to Liu Daniu, and said to him: "Tie it up, you can take revenge, and you can live." ”

……

In the evening, Zheng Xuli, the head of the Shangcai City household who had been busy for a day, took two subordinates to follow him for a long time, and he couldn't get out of the county office, and at this time, the subordinates of the Zheng family had already prepared a sedan chair for Zheng Xuli, so Zheng Xuli sat on the sedan chair as soon as he went out.

The subordinates of the Zheng family carried a sedan chair and walked on the extremely cold road, and there was not a single pedestrian on the wide road except for the listless soldiers who patrolled from time to time, so the road seemed very quiet.

Zheng Xuli sat in a rickety sedan chair, and after a team of soldiers walked past them, Zheng Xuli opened the sedan curtain with a folding fan and asked the old butler who had been loyal to the Zheng family for decades: "Lao Zheng, are they all here?" ”

When the old housekeeper heard this, he still lowered his head as usual and said to Zheng Xuli respectfully: "Master, the other two foreign masters are waiting for you at home." ”

Hearing the old housekeeper's answer, Zheng Xuli nodded, then put down the sedan curtain and said no more.

The rickety sedan chair carried Zheng Xuli back home quickly, and when he got home, Zheng Xuli nodded to his eldest son, asked his son to close the door, and he took the old housekeeper straight into the study.

And there are two middle-aged men waiting for him in the study.

One of these two men is Chen Zhiwen, the younger brother of Chen Zewen, the head of the county official, and the other is Xu Hongshu, the son of Xu Yan, the county official, but these two people are dressed very strangely, obviously they are both landlords of a county, but they are both wearing simple cloth clothes, which looks a little low-key.

However, Zheng Xuli obviously didn't care about what they were wearing, but after entering the study, he asked them directly, "You two are ready." ”

When the two heard Zheng Xuli's words, they didn't say anything but nodded.

Zheng Xuli couldn't help but show a smile on his face when he saw this, and then said to them: "In this case, those two should go back and bring a message to Chief Chen and Xu Dianzhi now, just say that the plan has changed, let's do it today." ”

However, hearing Zheng Xuli's words, Chen Zhiwen and Xu Hongshu's faces changed greatly, especially Xu Hongshu asked loudly: "The plan didn't say to do it today." Didn't you tell us at the beginning to wait for the Red Turban Army to attack the city and then take advantage of the chaos to open the city gate for the Red Turban Army, why did you have to make a temporary change? ”

However, when Zheng Xuli heard this, he snorted coldly with disdain, and then stared at the two of them and said, "Wait for the Red Turban Army to attack the city?" You are really stupid enough, if you really wait for the army outside the city to attack the city, with the remnants of Shang Cai's defeated generals, it will be our turn to open the city gate! ”

Hearing this, Xu Hongshu fell silent, but Chen Zhiwen, who looked rich, swallowed and spitted at the mouth and said: "It's too dangerous to do it now, after all, there are more than 3,000 officers and soldiers in the city." ”

"Hehe, three thousand officers and soldiers, outside the city is the Red Turban Army, and there are countless ghosts and ghosts in the city, three thousand fearless officers and soldiers and two waste privymen, you really have the courage to stop us! I'm afraid that as soon as we do it, this group of waste will escape! ”

"And if you don't do it now, does your Chen family have any other way to choose!" Looking at the silent Chen Zhiwen, Zheng Xuli snorted and said, "Your eldest brother is much smarter than you, he will know how to do it." ”

"Anyway, I'll just say it, as soon as the time comes, my Zheng family will definitely make a move, and when the time comes, whether you want to follow my Zheng family to survive in the death, or be killed, depends on how you choose tonight!" After saying this, Zheng Xuli left the study.

……

It was late at night, Bald Red looked at the dark county seat, but he had a feeling of being in a wolf's den, he knew that there would definitely be a lot of ghosts and ghosts jumping out tonight, after all, the people in this county who wanted to kill He and his people could line up from the south gate to the north gate.

So he slept in the camp west of the city for the past two days, because only then would he feel at ease.

"He must die!" Bald Chi glanced at the county office, and then thought in his heart.

"Only when he dies will the responsibility fall on him, and only when he dies of incompetence can he have the possibility of living. Do it, do it! Looking at the county seat, I couldn't help but think of it.

……

Time passed slowly, and there was still a quarter of an hour left, and the night was already deep, and most of the people had already slept.

At this time, Zheng Xuli also took away a Confucian robe and put on a leather armor, and he was also sitting alone on the steps of the front yard, quietly wiping a cold and shining sword. In front of him stood quietly nearly a hundred young and strong men with steel swords, most of these people were regarded as the Zheng family, the foundation of the Zheng family, and they were absolutely loyal.

However, just as these men were quietly waiting for the head of the family, Zheng Xuli, to give them an order, a burst of shouting and killing suddenly sounded in the east of the county, which was so loud that even the Zheng family, which was far away from the east of the city, could hear it. But it was Xue Baihu who led people to do it first.

Let's not talk about what happened to Xue Baihu for the time being, just talk about the Zheng family, this sudden shouting and killing sound undoubtedly made the Zheng family, who were already extremely nervous, feel a little restless and panicked, but this restlessness quickly dissipated, because their head Zheng Xuli still wiped the long sword in his hand quietly.

Zheng Xuli's self-confidence that everything is under control is extremely contagious at this time, and when the soldiers of the Zheng family saw him, they suddenly seemed to have a backbone, and soon calmed down again, and they were no longer flustered.

And when the family members quieted down again, Zheng Xuli also stopped the movements in his hands, only to see him look at the shiny long sword that was wiped in his hand, and said naturally to himself: "There are really a lot of ghosts and ghosts who want to fish in troubled waters, but the water is mixed, but can you touch the fish?" When he said the last sentence, Zheng Xuli had a disdainful smile on his face.

Then he saw him holding a long sword, stood up and said loudly to the soldiers in the courtyard: "Since someone has already attracted the attention of us, let's do it too." ”

After speaking, Zheng Xuli tied a red scarf to his head, and when the soldiers in the courtyard saw this, they all learned from Zheng Xuli to tie a red scarf on their heads, and after everyone tied the red scarf, Zheng Xuli raised his long sword and shouted at the soldiers in the courtyard: "For the father, the elderly, wife and children in the family, kill with me!" ”

"Kill!" A loud killing sound sounded, and the gate of the Zheng family was opened~~ with a bang, and then nearly 100 soldiers were held high with torches, shouting the slogan of the Red Turban Army Wansheng and rushing towards the big camp in the county.

Yes, it is the direction of the camp, because Zheng Xuli understands that only by taking advantage of the chaos to control those Han troops in the city can he have the capital to protect himself in this troubled world.

……

And speaking of the East Gate, when Xue Qing of the Hundred Households took more than 70 soldiers who had a blood feud with the Tartars to raise troops at the East Gate, he even made many people who were oppressed by the Tartars at the East City Gate join the team, and more than 70 people quickly expanded into nearly 200 people in the chaos of night and fire, and these more than 200 people also caused greater chaos.

The night became the best cover at this time, and the flames burning everywhere caused even greater chaos, and the thousands of soldiers defending the city who were already frightened by the Red Turban Army saw this scene, and they all thought that the Red Turban Army outside the city had come in, and two of the Han troops had bombed the camp at this time.

In the chaos, the generals who defended the city only knew how to lead people to escape, while the soldiers who lost their command trampled on each other, and countless soldiers began to kill each other in order to fight for a war horse and a way to live, and as soon as this phenomenon appeared, the chaos could no longer be controlled.

However, it is a pity that Xue Qing, the nearest hundred households from here, did not take people to take advantage of the chaos to control here, but after gathering more than 300 people, he rushed straight to the direction of the county government, but he did not seem to be the first to lead troops to attack the county government, because the Chen and Xu families in the county had already taken the first step to lead the family to do it.

……

Chen Zewen, who is also the head of Shangcai's household in the county, looked at the families who were entangled with hundreds of city guards in the county government, and couldn't help but scold: "Zheng Xuli, this bastard, let our two families do it in advance, but where did this bastard go, why didn't he come now." ”

Shang Cai's old warden Xu Yan's face was also a little embarrassed, but before Xu Yan could speak, the two of them heard a shout of killing and approaching from this, and after the shouting and killing sound, they saw nearly 300 soldiers holding torches high and rushing towards them with red scarves tied on their heads.

Seeing the dress of these people, Chen Zewen and Xu Yan also breathed a sigh of relief, although they didn't seem to be the Zheng family's people, but at least they were not officers and soldiers, and at the same time, they wouldn't have much trouble rebelling in a county town at this time, and with this group of people, they could just solve the urgent need here, after all, it took a lot of effort on their side to block Heguo in the county government.

And when the team approached, Chen Wenze and Xu Yan immediately recognized the person who led the team.

"Xue Baihu, sure enough, it's you, I guessed that you would do it." Looking at Xue Baihu, who was covered in blood, Chen Zewen said.

And after Xue Baihu saw them, he also snorted coldly and said: "It turned out to be Chief Chen and Xu Dian, hmph, I don't have time to catch up with you now, is He still in the county office?" ”

"Of course, otherwise how could we spend so much effort to attack the county government, Hewu has now been blocked by our two families, but there are hundreds of Tartar soldiers inside, and the men and horses of my two families can't rush in for a while. However, with Xue Baihu's people, we will be able to kill Hejia, why don't we three of us work together? Chen Zewen said. (To be continued.) )
