The reason why Yang Shu was able to arrive in March was directly related to Yuxian's failure. The pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Yuxian failed, and the next day Mengyin County knew the situation, and knew that Mengyin Zhixian County had also become a prisoner of the bandits in the calf village.

In this case, it is impossible to hide the news from anyone, after all, it is a big deal. Therefore, Yuan Yong stayed in the county and immediately reported to the Yizhou Mansion and the Governor's Mansion.

When the army failed, it was natural to find someone to blame, but fortunately, Yuxian himself was also lost in Baoqian Mountain, and this responsibility is very clear, that is, Yuxian was impatient and rash, fell into the tricks of the bandits, and then the whole army was annihilated.

In other words, Yuxian has already been planted, and the failure of the battle against Baoqian Mountain will be over, and no one will have anything to mention it. It's not easy for anyone these days.

However, the capture of Mengyin Zhixian and the vacancy of a magistrate's position are a major event. The kingdom shall not be left without an owner for a day...... Therefore, the officials who have the right to speak in this official position have taken relatively active countermeasures.

In their recital to Cixi, they only said that Mengyin Zhixian participated in the suppression of bandits and fell into the hands of bandits, and now Mengyin has no owner, so please send someone from the imperial court.

Where are the people in Cixi and Guangxu's hands, it is impossible to send eunuchs and palace maids to be magistrates, so this fat shortage will eventually fall into the hands of related people.

However, because Mengyin is a county with poor conditions, it takes less effort to serve as the county governor of Mengyin. So, Yang Shu, who was worried at home, was used in advance.

Because Yuan Shikai is currently the hope of the imperial court and a celebrity in front of the emperor and Cixi, Lord Yuan's recommendation excerpt naturally has to work, and Mengyin is not a place where there is no water, so Yang Shu's appointment is relatively fast.

……

Mengshanjun's shouting can be said to be as powerful as thunder! The effect of the tweeter is not something that people of this age can fully carry. Therefore, when the shouting sounded and the whole city roared like thunder, Yang Shu was so frightened that he got into the table.

Nima, with such a loud voice, it can't be a monster, right?

was so frightened that Yang Shu was naturally not the only one who drilled the table, and even Lu Xiang's father, Lu Gui, was scared to pee. Later, when Lu Xiang came home and talked about it, he was severely educated by his father, can't you tell me in advance about what happened to your rabbit cub?

Dad, if I dare to tell me, you don't want to mix up in the Mengshan Army! Lu Xiang was very aggrieved, and Lu Gui didn't know that the Mengshan Army had strict discipline.

The people under the table listened for a while, and then they were attracted by the content of the shouting. The county government has long been like a great enemy, and many officials and soldiers have surrounded the county government.

"My lord, my lord, the bandits of the calf village are attacking the city, and we are limited to half an hour to open the city gate!" Master Yang Shu, Liu Chaoxing, ran into the lobby and said with a roar.

"How can this be reasonable, ask all the soldiers to go up to the city wall, and ask all the major households in the county to send their families to assist in the defense!" Yang Shu had seen Yuan Shikai train his troops, and he was one of the few people in the Dragon Kingdom who had seen cannonballs flying sideways and the battlefield filled with gunsmoke, a small Mengyin bandit, could he still turn the sky upside down?

As for the legendary bandits with fast guns? Yang Shu felt that someone had opened a vacancy for his incompetence. Maybe there are fast guns, and sharpshooters are there, but can they be compared to the tens of thousands of male soldiers of Lord Yuan? It's just a few foreign guns! And Yang Shu is not short of foreign guns, when he took office, he got 20 shots and 10,000 rounds of ammunition from Lord Yuan, can't he still hold a county seat?

"Yes, my lord, it's just that there are thousands of bandits from Hugging Calf Village this time, and there are hundreds of people lined up in front of each of the four gates in the southeast, south, north, and west, and there are ...... And the Tiger Squat Cannon! Liu Chaoxing said.

This guy sees mortars as tiger squat guns. The Tiger Squat Cannon, a weapon used by the Ming army three hundred years ago.

"Thousands? Tiger squat cannon? Yang Shu was stunned all of a sudden, because all of his soldiers in Mengyin added up to only two hundred, could they be the opponent of thousands of bandits and artillery?

"Yes, sir." Liu Chaoxing actually hoped that Yang Shu would open the city gate, because he was particularly afraid of death.

Moreover, this master's news is also more well-informed than the county master, he has long known that Yuan Yong, the original county governor, is not only fine, but also became the second leader in Baocalf Village, it is said that it is also a position above 10,000 people under one person.

In addition, Baoqian Village is still recruiting a large number of scholars, it is said that as long as there is a talent and fame, the monthly salary of Baoqian Village is at least 5 taels of silver. Mao, even if he is in the hands of the county master, the average monthly is only two taels of silver.

"What then?" Yang Shu asked instinctively.

"My lord, I thought that we would not be able to defend the city gate with our troops, either find a direction to break through, or defend the county government and fight to the end with the bandits of Hucaozhai Village!" Liu Chaoxing wanted to say, your lord, just open the city gate, I think those bandits will not kill innocents indiscriminately, but he will never be able to say this. As long as he dares to speak, he may be used by Yang Shu to sacrifice the flag.

"The bandits are powerful, let's break through to the north of the city!" Yang Shu still had the right decision at the critical moment, the bandits came from the south, so they naturally fled from the north.

So, Yang Shu and the others didn't even guard it, and fled directly.

The Mengshan army outside the city shouted for nearly an hour, but no one opened the city gate, and they still felt that this new Mengyin Zhixian still had a little backbone. But to say that if you dress yourself up as an ostrich and think that you can defend Mengyin City, that's also a joke.

The attacking troops at the city gates are making final preparations.

"There are still five minutes until the siege time—" the commander gave orders to the soldiers.

"Three minutes until the siege time—"

"There's still a minute left until the siege time—"

"Brothers, listen to my orders, second and third shifts, cover in place! One class, carry the ladder and follow me! At the north gate of Mengyin, Xiao Qi Louming, who was already a platoon commander, carried a rifle and charged towards the city gate while commanding.

At this time, there were no soldiers defending the city on the city wall, and even if there were, they were hiding under the battlements.

I saw four soldiers, and I saw eight soldiers, each carrying two bamboo ladders, quickly rushed to the city wall, and leaned the ladder against the city wall, and two soldiers climbed up.

Two guys, probably in a hurry to make meritorious contributions, climbed fast.

"Don't show your head, throw the grenade first!" Lou Ming did not climb up first, but stood below to command.

It seems that Lou Ming's shouting was a little late, or the two guys who climbed the city were a little excited, only to hear the sound of a gunshot from the "horn", a soldier fell downside down, and a bullet hit the door, and it seemed that he would not survive.

"Throw a grenade-" When Lou Ming saw someone sacrificed, he was so angry that he vomited three liters of blood. When a commander fights, he must endorse the death of his soldiers, and he must deeply examine whether his command is at fault.

And in this case, the commander has long said that in the face of unknown occasions where the enemy may be hidden, the most correct thing to do is to first open the way with a grenade. Lou Ming also reminded him, but these two guys were so angry that they only remembered the charge but didn't remember the tactical essentials.

"Boom! Rumble! Fortunately, the other guy who climbed the ladder heard Lou Ming's shout, his steps slowed down a little, and not only saved his life, but also threw two grenades one after the other.
