Chapter 551: Strict Defense

Lu Zhi stood up angrily and said in a sharp voice: "Our family is ordered by the emperor to supervise the army, and we should live up to the grace of the saints, and now we must not only gradually slaughter large animals to reduce food consumption and increase the supply of meat, but also concentrate all the grain, salt, meat, and charcoal for that and that ...... from now on." ”

Lu Zhi forgot the new words Tang Daoheng said for a while, and Tang Daoheng said: "All food and consumables will be rationed today, and everyone does not need to be fed, non-combatants are provided with two meals and eighty percent of the rations, and combatants are provided with three meals of eighty percent. ”

The civil and military forces who participated in the consultation immediately began to discuss again, and one of the grain generals said: "This official obeys the order, but many of the bullocks, mules and horses are not military property, and they all have their own owners. ”

Tang Daoheng stood up and said proudly: "This official is a military attache under the command of the Marquis of Nan'an, and he will naturally take full responsibility for the policies formulated when he participates in the decision-making of Jinzhou's city defense today. ”

A garrison general said: "The 'God of War' Nan'an Hou Huang is admired by everyone in Liaodong, of course this official can be trusted, but I don't know how this little brother can take full responsibility?" ”

Huang Sheng's consistent style is to pay attention to the safety of the lives of the military and civilians, and in order to achieve this goal, he doesn't care about spending more money at all, and his subordinates are also imperceptibly affected by the head of the family.

Tang Daoheng solemnly promised: "If our arrangement goes too far, and Jiannu retires within half a year, how about the compensation for all the slaughtered animals of the Huang family?" Rest assured, the Huang family is as good as a mountain, and the Huang family can afford to lose these small money! ”

Damn, the Huang family is too bullish and domineering, they are all promises, and they all have money, and the promise of compensation is based on affordability, not bragging.

All the civil and military officers looked at each other, and everyone silently watched as this young man wearing a six-rank military attache uniform actually had no one stand up to refute.

Lu Zhi is also very honorable, he wishes that Jiannu would retire early, if Jiannu leaves with nothing, he, the great eunuch of the supervising army, will have his great achievements.

He glanced at the civil and military officials and patted his chest and said: "Where do you want Lord Huang to break the fee, if Jiannu returns within half a year, our family will compensate everyone for silver." ”

The eunuchs are all royal eagle dogs, and their loyalty is much higher than that of civil officials and military generals, of course Lu Zhi knows that if he loses Jinzhou, he will definitely have no way to live, and the only way to defend the city is to work together to defend the city.

He sincerely hopes that Jiannu will retreat in vain, Jinzhou will lose some big livestock, as long as his life is there, Jinzhou City is there, he will be good, what is the silver life?

Dizzy, the eunuch of the prison army is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, he all said this, which one dares to suffer from gains and losses, everyone immediately took action, registered materials, money and grain, cattle and horses to make a book, and the eunuchs brought by the prison army supervised the distribution of rations.

Tang Daoheng brought less than 30 people, and there were more than a dozen agents who stayed in Jinzhou before, and he was not ready to engage in spy work at this time, but went all out to deal with the battle to defend the city that decided the life and death of more than 30,000 people.

Although there were only less than 50 private soldiers of the Huang family in Jinzhou City, the firepower they possessed was enough to easily overturn a Ming army Ding Baizong, Tang Daoheng had 30 double-barreled short guns, 87 flintlock rifling guns, and 500 "Flying Earthquake Thunder".

Although there are no professional grenadiers in the team, every private soldier of the Huang family knows that they spin around four times to get rid of the "Flying Thunder", and it is nothing without training, and when defending the city, it is still a piece of cake to stand behind the battlements of the high city wall and throw thirty or forty steps condescendingly.

Tang Daoheng accompanied Lu Zhi to inspect Jinzhou's armament inventory, and found that there were a lot of materials here, a lot of gunpowder, and 2,000 arquebuses.

Tang Daoheng led the people to carefully select 800 arquebuses, selected 2,000 people among the 10,000 young people, trained 1,200 people to use the Ming army's standard spear to pierce, and trained 800 people to load arquebuses and shoot.

Due to the rationing system in Jinzhou, non-combatants were only allowed to eat two meals a day, but when they were selected for training, they became combatants, and they were able to eat three meals a day.

The more reason is that they believe that the "God of War" Lord Huang is under the command of Lord Huang, and there is also an important reason, there are no eggs under the nest?

It's really at the critical juncture of the city's offensive and defensive battles, even women and children will pick up weapons to fight in the city, how good it is to get weapons and practice earlier, at least when it's time to fight hard, there are some combat skills.

Jinzhou is united as one, but the Jin army besieged but did not attack, it seems that it must wait until Jinzhou runs out of food, only three months later, Tang Daoheng's status in Jinzhou is only lower than He Kegang and Lu Zhi, and he has become the third leader of the defenders.

First, everyone saw the vicious intentions of the Houjin army to starve the soldiers and civilians of Jinzhou, and second, everyone saw the Huang family's ability to train the troops, and the two thousand people were trained to be decent in three months, and their mental outlook was no worse than that of the regular soldiers in Liaodong.

The red gangsters besieging the city were constantly persuaded to shoot into Jinzhou City, and they were always attacked by Jiannu, Tang Daoheng was on fire, and sent musketeers to monitor Jiannu outside the city with binoculars and telescopes around the clock, and found that the enemy soldiers who shot messages to and from the city were killed on the spot.

With the remote monitoring of telescopes and clairvoyants, the approaching Jiannu will of course suffer.

Unconsciously three Jiannu came on horseback, and were drawing bows around the city wall, "Woo" seven flintlock rifled guns at the head of the city fired a volley, and three Jiannu messengers planted two of them.

Jinzhou Chengtou quickly put down the two hanging baskets, and the two Huang family private soldiers who were only wearing winding steel armor jumped out of the hanging baskets as quickly as possible.

The two of them rushed to the corpse of Jiannu with knives in their hands, and began to run back and forth with their heads in their hands, only forty or so steps, and in a blink of an eye, they were under the city wall, and the two immediately got into the hanging basket and hid tightly.

The Ming army that responded at the head of the city immediately shook the wheels desperately, and the hanging basket slowly left the ground and rose faster and faster.

The Jiannu cavalry behind saw the messenger being shot, and there was actually a Ming army who dared not to come to the city to cut off the head, damn, the deception was too much, Jiannu immediately hit the horse and attacked the brave Ming army and killed the city.

Tang Daoheng had already had a plan, and he didn't want money or death, but to stimulate Jiannu to attack.

The Ming army at the head of the city has long been ready, and the muzzles of the black guns are aimed at the Houjin army outside the city.

Jiannu swarmed up, and the quiet Jinzhou city suddenly crackled and gunshots sounded, not only the Huang family's musketeers began to shoot, but the nine smoothbore cannons that had long been loaded and ready to fire also fired almost at the same time, and the Jiannu who were suddenly impacted were killed and wounded.

And the two heroic Huang family warriors were successfully pulled to the city, and the result of Jiannu's battle was to nail dozens of feather arrows into the two hanging baskets.
