With the whitening of the sky, it represents the beginning of a new day in Guangfu, when the skylight in the direction of the coastline struggles out of the clouds little by little.

I was eating breakfast in the dew and the morning light, although it was the leftover of the feast - half a fat goose, with a blade, and stuffed it into my mouth, the charcoal was hot and the smell of oil was very refreshing.

After eating all the burnt flesh, the remaining brown and red meat is torn into strips and sandwiched in the cake to eat, which is another tough and smooth taste.

Because of the frequent banquets held during these days, there is a large amount of food storage in the hotel, as long as the ration is according to the plan, it is enough to support it for a period of time, and the water source also has indoor and outdoor candidates.

In the enlarged courtyard, the figure, who has been busy for half a night, is using horse-drawn carriages and large pieces of furniture to block the gaps and large entrances and exits in the building complex.

The landscape trees in the courtyard were also cut down, and stone elements were used to reinforce the portal.

After dawn, due to the higher position of the Meishan Pavilion Villa District in the north corner of the city, we can see that there are already other urban areas full of dust.

Vaguely, all kinds of crying, shouting and scolding voices are spreading little by little. Hey sighed, it was going to be a long day full of suffering.

With the sporadic people who fled for refuge or reported the news during this uneasy night, all kinds of news became clearer and clearer.

"The spy of the rebels blew up the sub-medicine depot under Guangding Gate overnight,"

"The following guards were killed on the spot"

"The city gate collapsed, the defenders were killed and wounded, and they had no intention of fighting again......"

"The rebels are booming...... At the cost of death and injury, they rushed to the top of the city. ”

"I don't know how many have entered the city......"

The good news is that before dawn, Han Liangchen finally brought people over, and brought me about two hundred new forces, all of whom were gathered in the training camp, in addition to other people who came from my family's property, there were also seventy or eighty people,

Judging from their somewhat wolf-like appearance and vigilant expressions, it was obvious that they had encountered something on the road, but they were quite well equipped, and more importantly, they brought me four or five truckloads of supplies, including half a cart of refined medicine.

Other things, some of which were brought from the stronghold, and some of which were collected along the way, such as the two blacksmith shops and an armory shop, were emptied.

A little later, Cui Tuzi, Qian Shuining, and Yan Jiu'er, who stayed in the industry, more or less brought some people, and came to meet in groups of three or five, and they also had more than 100 people together, further supplementing our manpower, although we can't count on their combat effectiveness, but there are also all kinds of skilled professionals, such as bone-setting Langzhong, pharmacists who can deal with Jinchuang, carpenters and masons, cooks and slaughtering apprentices.

The bad news is that the other two groups of strongholds, so far, there has been no news or movement, and I don't know what happened or encountered.

However, for me, with the manpower brought by Han Liangchen, plus the members of the Laojie Newspaper Shift Team who came with me before, I have more than 400 people directly under my hands, all of whom are young and strong people with a certain sense of training and discipline. There are also about 200 riders and guards who have been handed over by Mrs. Chen in my hands, and there are about 200 riders and guards who have a certain tacit understanding and friendship with me.

In this way, under the leadership of Han Liangchen, it has at least become a relatively reliable fighting force. Even if there is something wrong, you can escort the evacuation of several important people, in addition,

There are also more than 20 wealthy eunuchs brought by Mrs. Chen, and among them, I even saw a person who was suspected of being a eunuch, and the family members and tribes they brought with them, and the angry skin and so on were also a force.

I gathered all the guards and martial artists in it to form a white army and handed it over to Bo Fu to organize and dispose of; Most of the remaining miscellaneous and ill-armed men, organized into auxiliary garrisons, were led by windswept banners, and were maneuvered according to the actual needs of spearmen, players, archers, and transport groups.

Among them, I selected 20 cavalry guards who were more familiar with it, as well as armed personnel trained by my family, and more than 30 people who were more skilled in the use of firearms, as a small reserve force under my direct control.

It can also be used for other purposes, when necessary, it can be sent out to investigate, or act as a military law team to prevent those, inexperienced armed servants, escape from the battle or something.

Other logistical needs for maintenance, ambulance, transportation, cooking, etc., will be handed over to Mrs. Chen and them to the tribe, which can be regarded as their own professional division of labor. As for the handful of nobles, I habitually ignore them, and as long as Mrs. Chen makes sure that they don't come to get in my way, then it is none of my business to let them hide in their rooms and be ostriches or to be drunk and die in the daytime.

A pavilion, a schematic diagram hung up, on which were the street distribution maps of the Fang District where Meishan was located were drawn overnight, and more than a dozen temporarily appointed leaders, and my combat meeting was held in this way.

"As a material for rolling stones, it has been moved to the roof......"

Fifth Ping held a woodblock and counted that he had a few people under him, and he was also responsible for the coordination of manpower and materials for civil engineering, drawing queue diagrams, or something

"The maids and ladies in the hall rushed to make more than 80 thick cloth robes overnight, which should be able to cover the arrow stone a little."

"Then it will be distributed to the White Soldiers of Bofu first."

"Also, after rearranging the equipment that everyone handed over......"

"There are one hundred and seven long and short guns, although the shape is different, all of them can be sounded......"

"Then pick forty people out, make up a gun team, and then assign eighty people to the reserve, and give them charge and close cover......"

I decided.

"The requirements for the reserve are not too high, the armed servants can do it, and they can lift the planks......"

"There are also two hundred and sixty-one crossbows, most of which are horned bows and wooden bows, and only seventeen iron arm bows, twenty-five strong crossbows, and twelve crossbow machines."

"Iron arm bows, strong crossbows, and crossbow machines are each in their own independent groups, and they are incorporated into my reserve team as a maneuver,"

"The Iron Arm Bow Group mainly snipers the leader, the strong crossbow group deals with the equipment in the rear, and the crossbow team is used to suppress the charge in the open field,"

"Everyone else who can pull the bowstring will become a shooting team......"

Speaking of this, I said to the wind

"We don't need to be on the head, we just need to listen to the command, shoot the arrow in a general direction......"

"In this case, the people of the shooting team should try to make up as many as possible,"

Wind Roll Flag built yì to,

"It doesn't matter if you don't have enough crossbows, you can ⊥ them take turns using them, and if you have enough arrows, you can shoot a few more rounds......"

"Very good, in addition, you can also take local materials and let them make some spear throwing by hand,"

I nodded, agreeing with his advice.

"It's really not good, condescending to throw stones will always make ......"

"We can also make some fire pots, torches, and smoke balls......

Bo Fu Jian yì to

"It's also useful when fighting in the alleys of the city......"

"Okay, I'll negotiate with the master...... Need to find you as much as you can ......"

Suddenly we all looked up,

With the sound of alarms from above, the attack hidden behind a wave of fleeing crowds finally arrived.

Men, women, and children, crying and shouting, like a torrent of rolling streets, were blocked and diverted to the side by high walls.

But there were still many figures who crossed the obstacles and the ditches, and ran beyond the gates of the thick wooden nails, clapping and begging to open the door.

The door responded to their voices, and walked to the side, and after dawn it stopped accepting refuge from the fugitives

This bustling city has torn away the veil of gentleness and warmth, and has begun to reveal a kind of dark side and shadow of the metropolis, the accumulation of the jungle and the ugly side of human nature.

With the shouts in the streets below, we could clearly see from the heights that the chaos and panic caused by the rebels breaking through the city had finally spread to us.

Some of the portals of villas and mansions near Meishan have been smashed open with a loud noise, and then the thugs who swarmed in wantonly smashed and looted, and then set fire to them.

And again, those who stayed behind because of luck or other reasons, they were inevitably subjected to some kind of poison and rage, and they made unhearable miserable screams......

Whether it is a good or lowly family, whether it is a high-ranking family or a Penghu family, in this wave of madness and tyranny, there are only two roles left, the victim and the perpetrator, and these two roles will often change.

For example, I saw with my own eyes in the telescope that a carriage was running wildly through the streets, accompanied by guards, crashing over the begging figures, and then

Tripped over the sudden appearance of rags and obstacles, and flipped and rolled, and then the figures that poured out of the streets and alleys rushed up like hyenas waiting on the prairie, dragging the slashing guards from their panicked horses, and then turning into a blur of unrecognizable flesh and blood.

Drag out the dead bodies, or the wounded who are not yet dead, and strip them away in spite of their pleadings and groans.

Then smash the other person's head flat, or just go naked and bloody in turn

This also made me a little afraid, because the direction of the old street where I was plus was already shrouded in the thick smoke of the omnipresent wanton looting and burning.

Well, at least I still have the strength to protect the people around me, I'm so glad I did.

The crowd under the gate, which had been beating for so long to no avail, turned into a cascade of hard work and climbed upward, their voices hoarse and crying and shouting, cursing their ruthless masters, and then falling heavily from the smooth bluestone plaster wall.

Then the sound of crying changed again,

"At least keep our children and ......"

"Please......"

Then a few young figures were lifted high, and at this moment, those who remained by the door were also a little shaken, and then there was some kind of dispute.

"Bad ......"

I immediately made a decision, slid down to the top of the pavilion I was watching, and called out loudly

"Bring a firearm and a crossbow machine, ready to shoot ......"

Then I trotted to the front of the gate, where someone was already trying to push the support open, and without hesitation, I raised my hand and slammed the handcuff into his vest, and suddenly a stream of blood spurted out, and with an expression of disbelief, pounced on the stuffing behind the door

"Death ...... those who trespass without an order"

I roared, but I sighed in my heart, the reliability of these people in a hurry is still not good.

"Do you want to die?"

At this time, the Gun Team also followed, and raised their hands against these people who violated the order, and immediately suppressed their imminent resistance and affection.

"According to the law of joint seating, they will be put into labor teams"

I commanded instead

"Let the wind roll up the flag, and another team will guard the goal......"

It's just that the bitter pleading behind the door is still there, so that the new person who has come over also has a little uneasy and unbearable face, but he doesn't dare to move anymore.

"Bring a rope and a basket to ......"

I thought about it again,

"If it is a child, let it come in through the wall......

"Kindness is not something that comes out of nowhere...... Do what you can......"

I glanced around deeply, and they seemed a little ashamed and afraid, and continued.

"Prepare the gun, if there's anything wrong, kill ...... immediately"

As it turned out, my confession was not superfluous, and a moment later, I was standing with two bloody corpses

When the fourth and fifth-looking children, who looked larger, were lowered over the wall with help, a sudden change occurred, and "he" suddenly knocked over several people, jumped to the edge of the door, and then looked at the door in despair, and was beaten into a rotten sieve by the reflex of the gun.

The corpse that fell to the ground, though bloody, was faintly recognizable, a dwarf dressed in children's clothes and deliberately covering his head, holding a sharp axe and a short knife in his hand

And the people outside the door also changed their faces, took out their axes and chiseled cones, and dug up at the gate with a desperate chop, but unfortunately their usual measurement had failed, and they could not shake the specially strengthened gate,

Soon the fire hammer sticks out of the wall, so that they can understand what it means to be a flower and why it is so red.
