Chapter 472: The enemy retreats, and I advance
In order to be able to defeat Qin Li's more than 3,000 people, Li Kaixian made all preparations under the existing conditions. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 He divided his 60,000 men into four groups. Kou Dake, as his descendant, is the person he trusts the most, and Li Kaixian simply let him lead the servants and his thugs in Nanpi County, with a total of 20,000 people. Li Kaixian himself took 20,000 people, and these 20,000 people were brought by him from Hejian City, all of them were strong thugs, and they were also very obedient people.
In addition, the remaining 20,000 people were divided into two groups, each group of 10,000 people, and handed over to the landlord Haoqiang, who was close to his two cronies. The four groups were divided into four directions to attack Qin Li. Before leaving the city, Li Kaixian made another last speech. In this speech, Chen said that Qin Li was all wrong, and that Qin Li was all evil.
And he solemnly promised that once Qin Li was defeated this time, Qin Li would be driven out of Hejian Mansion or killed Qin Li, and everyone under his command would be rewarded with five taels of silver, and everyone would become an official servant of the government, so that they would no longer be thugs or domestic slaves, and become people with status and status.
For those landlords who are strong, Li Kaixian's promise was even greater, and he promised to subsequently remove the governors and counties of the entire Hejian Province, and they could become the new governors and counties. In short, in the future, Hejian Mansion will be his Li Kaixian's world, and it will be his Li Kaixian's Hejian Mansion.
Of course, in order to increase the weight of his words, in order to prove that he is not a true word, and in order to prove that he has such strength, he simply revealed his relationship with Lord Jiang Binjiang in the capital to everyone.
Whether it is a landlord Haoqiang, or an ordinary thug and a domestic slave, where is there anyone who doesn't know Jiang Bin? Jiang Bin is like an emperor-like figure in their hearts. In their minds, since Li Kaixian has a relationship with Jiang Bin, and with Jiang Bin and Lord Jiang behind him, Qin Li is nothing. It's no wonder, no wonder Li Kaixian was so tough, and he killed Ye Wenlong, a fourth-grade official from the capital, without any scruples. As a general judge of the five products of Hejian Mansion, he dared to openly argue with the prefect Qin Li.
In short, Li Kaixian's ability to speak and agitate is not small. Sixty thousand people had just had two full meals, a lot of meat, and a lot of wine. This is indeed a good thing, it can make people forget pain, forget troubles, forget dangers, and make people in nothingness. What's more, wine makes people feel like they are the most awesome and powerful people in the world. This is the so-called wine that strengthens people's courage.
The crowd was excited, and the blood of 60,000 people was boiling. They shouted, "Kill! You must kill Qin Li, Qin Li is the devil and the scourge of Hejian Mansion. We are all looking forward to Lord Li, we are resolutely obedient to Lord Li's command and dispatch, for Lord Li, for the sake of the whole Hejian will be a peaceful world in the future, we do not hesitate to sacrifice our lives! ”
Li Kaixian's heart was full of joy, and his face was full of confident smiles.
The two eyes burst out with an indifferent and venomous light, he waved his hand lightly, and the gunner ignited the cannon, and after three cannon shots, 60,000 people swarmed out from the four gates of Nanpi County.
Their ranks are all stepping down. Originally, there were people riding horses, but now they can't. Because just yesterday a lot of war horses were killed, and even if there were still horses that were not killed, they were still skinny. Because there is no surplus forage left to feed the horses in Nanpi County.
"Kill! Rush! They shouted, and after frantically pouring out of the city gate, they headed towards Qin Li and the defense lines they were guarding on all sides.
Boom! It's not for fun. Qin Li's team was also divided into four groups, led by Qin Li, Yu Dayou, Huang Tian and Dahu. As Qin Li's apprentice, Wei Zu was responsible for protecting Yang Suzhen some time ago. Yang Suzhen's case has been understood, and Wei Zu has finally returned to Qin Li's side. The reason why he worships Qin Li as a teacher is that he is completely impressed by Qin Li's character and martial arts.
At this time, he was standing beside Qin Li, seeing the city gate wide open, and people everywhere shouted and rushed over. Wei Zu's blood was boiling, and he was excited. Turning his head to look at Qin Li, he hurriedly said, "Master, give the order, just let us eight hundred people fight with them." Master, please believe in our warriors, even though they are numerous, they cannot scare us. We're going to kill them! ”
When Wei Zu said this, Qin Li could hear that Wei Zu was also a little timid. It's no wonder that it's menacing, crowded, and overwhelming. Sensei said that he was beaten, even if he stepped on it with his feet, he would trample these hundreds of people under his command to death.
Qin Li shook his head lightly, "No! Give the order to go down and retreat 500 meters! ”
Boom! What kind of order is this, the enemy rushed over, but we retreated, this is not obviously frightened by them. Wei Zu secretly pondered, no, the master is full of guts, why has he become like this now, timid and afraid?
He was just about to speak, but he met Qin Li's cold eyes. Qin Li's eyes were firm and unquestionable. Wei Zu was so frightened that he trembled, didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly shouted loudly to give the order.
Qin Li's team was really agile, and the order to retreat five hundred meters had just come out. The team of 800 men retreated in a very orderly manner.
500 meters is 500 meters, and you stand still at the next 500 meters. Everyone raised a knife in their hands and looked coldly at the people on the other side rushing over.
"Boom! Bang! "The sound of the mines sounded again, and the people who stepped into the mine area first were bravely moving forward just now, but now they were bombed into the sky. When he fell to the ground, he was already blurred with flesh and blood, his limbs were incomplete, and he died of exhaustion.
Mines are too powerful.
Li Kaixian had actually seen the power of this mine a long time ago, but he never believed it, and he didn't really pay attention to it, in his opinion, how could 60,000 people defeat 3,000 people.
It was Kou Dake's team that rushed towards Qin Li's side. These thugs and house slaves are all close associates of Kou Dake. Speaking of which, Kou Dake usually treats them well, but these people are still more obedient and hardworking.
But working hard is not the same as working hard. No one wants to give their lives for Kou Dake. Seeing that their companions were blown up to the sky because of the rush in front of them, they immediately stopped.
Ahead is a devil-like place, and you can't go any further.
That's what everybody thinks.
A few days ago, what happened to Ye Wenlong when he went out of the city reappeared.
If you can't advance, then retreat back to the city. When returning to the city, Qin Li's team strictly followed the principle that the enemy advanced and I retreated, and the enemy retreated and I advanced, and immediately rushed over and threw grenades high. The power of the grenade was also extraordinary, and many people were killed in no time.
After the grenade, Qin Li's team shouted, "Those who surrender will not be killed on their knees, and the prisoners will be treated preferentially!" ”
There is no food in Nanpi County, can you go to the city and wait to starve to death?
Qin Li is the prefect, he is a person from the imperial court, if his approach is really wrong, naturally the imperial court will take care of him, we are just ordinary people, what ability do we have, what right do we have to manage him. Wouldn't it be better to kill the landlord Haoqiang and give the land to domestic slaves and thugs? We no longer have to suffer the anger of the landlord's powerful master, isn't that a good life?
Surrender!
Hearing the shouts of Qin Li's team, even if someone dropped the weapon in his hand and knelt on the ground and did not move. At first, there were only a few people, but this kneeling was like a contagion, and it spread very quickly. Soon, more people were kneeling on the icy snow.
It's cold on the snow, but it's better than being killed.
The thugs' retreating footsteps were naturally powerless to stop them. Besides, from Kou Dake's heart, he feels that he can't move forward anymore, moving forward is death, if he moves forward again, won't he be a fool?
But now that many people have surrendered, Kou Dake is gone. Granny dripping! You are all my subordinates, you should be my people in life, and you should be my ghost when you die, why do you abandon me and surrender?
Since you are so unkind, then don't blame me for being rude.
Kou Dake's broadsword was raised high, and with a single sword, he cut off the head of a kneeling man.
Although the crowd did not resist much, everyone silently avoided Kou Dake. Qin Li's team was chasing behind, and Kou Dake couldn't stay too long.
There were more and more people who surrendered, and Kou Dake could do nothing but let it go. As he ran in the direction of Nanpi County, he thought, alas! It seems that my uncle has gone too far, why are you just a general judge, why do you have to get along with the new prefect? It doesn't matter if you can't get along with the new prefect, why do you want to come to my Nanpi County? If my uncle doesn't come, isn't this Nanpizhi County my Kou Dake? Look at the current Yanshan County and Qingyun County, aren't the two magistrates doing a good job?
What was a son of heaven and a courtier? As long as I do a good job in Nanpi County, and do it according to the requirements of the prefect in Nanpi County, won't the prefect let me be the prefect? You must know that I, the prefect of the county, was also appointed by the imperial court, and as long as I can go down the line, the new prefect will not trouble me.
Now, if I openly make an enemy of the prefect, not only will this prefect not be able to do it, but it is very likely that he will wait for the victory of the prefect and cut off my head.
Speaking of which, all this is the reason for my uncle, I really don't know what he thinks?
At this time, the more Kou Dake thought about it, the more angry he became. Gradually, he felt that the general trend had gone, and he was full of dissatisfaction with Li Kaixian.
Dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, but Kou Dake is also a person with clear grievances, he knows that he, the magistrate, has taken advantage of Li Kaixian's light, and this kindness needs to be repaid. So in the current situation, I have to follow Li Kai first. Because at this time, his subordinates surrendered and could live, but if he surrendered, there was only one way to die.
There was no turning back for him.
After Kou Dake's 20,000 men fled back to Nanpi County, less than 2,000 remained. About 2,000 people were killed by mines and grenades, and the remaining 15,000 or 6,000 surrendered.
……
Li Kaixian and the other two landlords Hao Qiang's experience was the same as Kou Dake's.
It's okay now, go out of the city to fight once, not to mention the person who didn't kill Qin Li, there are more than 50,000 people who have surrendered and become Qin Li's people, do you still need to fight such a battle?
However, surrendering so many people is also very beneficial to the rest. Although there is basically no food in the city, there are still a lot of those war horses, and now they can eat horse meat all day long. There is not enough salt in the city, but it is better to eat meat than to go hungry.
After Li Kai returned to the city first, he was in a hurry.
Fortunately, Kou Da followed Li Kaixian with all his heart, and took good care of Li Kaixian, so that Li Kaixian could survive in Nanpi County.
In the minds of Li Kaixian, Kou Dake and others, Qin Li absorbed more than 50,000 surrenderers, and his team should be very large.
As it turned out, their ideas were completely wrong. Qin Li's method of treating the captives was to eat and drink well, let them have a full meal, and then let them go back to where they came from. Of course, if it's from Nanpi County, then you can't go back at the moment. If you can't go back, you can also go to Hejian Mansion to find Master Xu Wei, and ask Xu Wei to coordinate and arrange their accommodation within the entire Hejian Mansion. The premise is that they must ensure that they will be a peaceful people in the future.
After all, Hejian Mansion is vast and sparsely populated, and these more than 50,000 people should be the new force for the future construction of Hejian Mansion. They must go back to their hometowns, to their fields. The original land was in the hands of the landlords, but now it is completely distributed to the people. After all, the people's production tools and manpower are limited, and they can't grow so many fields. Therefore, Kama Province must also vigorously expand its population.
The days are getting colder and colder day by day, counting nine cold days, and it has been a month since the siege of Nanpi County. It seems that Li Kaixian and Kou Da are iron-hearted, and they don't want to surrender. Since you don't want to surrender, you and your men will not be merciful.
Matteo Ricci also brought two artillery pieces with him this time.
The artillery made by Matteo Ricci under Qin Li's rough guidance was much more powerful than the current artillery of the Ming Dynasty. Two artillery pieces were aimed at the walls of Nanpi County, and the siege battle officially began.
Li Kaixian and Kou Dake had almost no power to fight back, and half an hour later, Qin Li's team entered Nanpi County.
Poor Nampi County is now left with no one. Many people were not killed in battle, but were killed by Kou Dake and Li Kaixian, or by their companions. Because they want to occupy more horse meat, they may want to consume it with Qin Li for a long time.
Li Kaixian could have committed suicide, but this crazy person didn't have that much courage, so he was captured by Qin Li's special forces. However, that Kou Dake was a little bit of a temperament, and when Qin Li's subordinates saw him, he had already killed himself.
At this time, Li Kaixian no longer had his original spirit and was full of energy. His spirit was extremely decadent and sluggish, and his body, which was originally very strong, became skinny and boneless. Along with him, the seven landlords he brought out from Hejian Mansion were also arrested.
At this time, they were all wilted and slumped, standing side by side in front of Qin Li. But Qin Li didn't seem to see them at all, he sat in the public hall of the county government, and hurriedly wrote the report document of Hejian Mansion with a pencil, and sent someone to send it to the cabinet in the capital quickly.
