Shaanxi is now in civil turmoil, and the people are not more bitter than before, because they can't be more bitter, and every time the militia goes to a county, they rob and kill as usual, the purpose is obvious, and then force more people to rebel, and the civil unrest in Shaanxi has a growing trend, and a Hong Chengchou is not good.

Chongzhen was a little panicked, he knew that Ning Zhiyuan was marching to Shaanxi, and he had some confidence, but he felt that this didn't seem to be enough, hundreds of thousands of anti-people, a few more people had to be transferred, recalling the performance of fighting with Houjin in the Guannei last year, he chose one person.

There is a big old man, his name is Cao Wenzhao.

Shanxi Datong, ten years ago followed Xiong Yanbi to Liaodong, nine years ago ushered in a new boss Sun Chengzong, six years ago was Yuan Chonghuan's subordinate, last year again under Sun Chengzong's hands, repelled Amin, recovered the four cities in Guannei.

Now, he has come to the northwest, and with him comes a thousand Guanning iron horsemen.

Guanning Iron Cavalry is the most elite army of the Ming Dynasty, among the nearly 100,000 soldiers in Liaodong, there are only more than 10,000 Guanning Iron Cavalry, and after Yuan Chonghuan was arrested, nearly half of them ran, and now there are 6,000 left, and what Cao Wenzhao brought back was only one-sixth.

Wang Jiayin is his target, with more than 100,000 people under his command, and the elite population also accounts for more than 30,000, entrenched in the Fugu area.

In his opinion, the imperial court only sent 3,000 people to fight them this time, it seems that they have really given up Shaanxi, after this wave, he will be able to live here, his requirements are not high, he has robbed so much food and property, as long as he has a life flower, he has ten times the number of troops, ten dozen one, how to win.

Immediately ordered to rectify the Fugu, set up six departments, set up a prime minister, and a large official seal, since the court has admitted it, then his idea has to be tougher

Black clouds overwhelmed the city, but it never rained.

Chongxin is just a small city, the city wall is dilapidated, Shen Yikui has killed a lot of officials and rich families after occupying it, this has become their world, after learning that the soldiers in Ningxia attacked, the first thing that flashed in his mind was to escape.

Shaking his head, he quickly denied this idea, he knew that his subordinates did not have the spirit of desperateness, after the last time, he learned a lesson, so he divided his subordinates into five brigades, commanded by his four cronies and himself, and also issued an order of joint and several responsibility, one person fled, and the whole battalion was punished to try to change this fact, and the punishment was extremely heavy, if he ran away like this now, he would be slapped in the face, and he would not have to mix it up again in the future.

Is he afraid? He was scared, but he couldn't run, at least, not yet.

The road is lush and green, and from time to time a few birds are circling and chirping, and it is summer, but today it is very cool.

There are 8,000 soldiers under Chongxin City, and Chongxin City is densely packed.

This scene is really a bit spectacular, on top of a small city, there are tens of thousands of soldiers standing guarding the city, but in the face of the 8,000 people who seem to be attacking the city, God Yikui seems to have chosen the safest way.

But Ning Zhiyuan didn't think so, this was a ruined city in front of him.

Ning Daguan was a little stunned, in the face of this situation, first of all, he felt that the other party's leader was sick in his head, and this approach obviously exposed his own shortcomings, and covered up the superiority of his own side's troops, and turned into trouble.

The other party has 40,000 people, or 50,000 people, this is just young and strong, and it is not a problem to drag more than 100,000 people with their families, and the city wall is dilapidated, but it is not a joke.

As far as the eye can see, there will be a gap of a few people wide almost half a mile or a mile, and the city wall is only two or three people high, it is also very easy to go up, but it will lose a certain number of soldiers, and more importantly, the city gate has also been seriously damaged, if the other party only has thousands of people, it is okay, Ning Zhiyuan will calmly accept the fact that the other party is a brain-dead, but the other party is leading hundreds of thousands

It is not bad that he looks down on the militia, and pure peasant uprisings have never been successful, but that is only the limited reason for the general low quality, and to be the leader of so many of them, there should still be some level.

"Brothers and soldiers under the city, we brothers just can't survive, if you don't retreat like this, I will be grateful." A loud voice came from the city, urging them to leave.

The Ningxia soldiers did not move.

"Infantry into the city." Ning Daguan thought for a moment, did not answer the words on the city wall, and ordered.

Shen Yikui was a little depressed, feeling that he had been hurt, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, hurt hurt, it didn't matter, he just came to hurt them.

Thousands of soldiers rushed towards the city gates with siege equipment, and the so-called equipment was nothing more than two wooden stakes that were used to break down their gates.

Seeing this scene, the anti-thieves in the city began to send out bursts of arrow rain, sporadically hitting a few people, most of them missed or were blocked by the Ningxia soldiers, bows and arrows, in the hands of skilled soldiers, the hit rate is only 12 out of 10, and in the hands of the anti-people, it is even lower than ridiculous.

It's just that after all, there are still some casualties, which are inevitable.

The soldiers were halfway through the siege, the arrows stopped, and the sky suddenly became empty, as for the reason, Ning Daguan probably guessed that they must simply have no arrows.

These anti-people only occupied a small city, and perhaps they also grabbed a few on the way, but bows and arrows are consumables after all, and they need to be made from time to time, and the government is corrupt, and the soldiers can't eat enough, where there will be too many of these things, the anti-people naturally don't know how to make them themselves, which is one of the limitations of the peasant uprising.

This was a good thing at this time, and the soldiers of Ningxia soon reached the city gates, pounding heavily and forcefully against the gates of this small northwestern county, and from time to time dodging the stones falling from the sky.

It was an easy siege, perhaps not a siege, but it was just a broken gate, which was easier and less expensive than going straight to the low wall, except for the few soldiers who were wounded by the arrows.

The battle will be solved soon, and then I will go to Ningxiawei to have a look, Lu Hui thought.

The stakes were still pounding against the gates, making a loud noise.

Suddenly, one after another, a lot of people dressed in the clothes of the common people came out of the hole in the city wall, and all of them were young and strong, with knives in their hands, and gradually accumulated into a lot, and there was already a tendency to surround the six thousand soldiers.

"Haha, my lord, these anti-thieves, do the anti-thieves think that they can defeat us in this way, it's ridiculous." Lu Hui had a pride in his tone, "We are not solid, how can the soldiers in Ningxia be comparable to these anti-thieves." ”

It's something they've worked for years.

The Guyuan soldiers have not fought many battles, but their training has hardly been slackened, and they are all soldiers who have been in the army for many years.

Ning Zhiyuan showed a smile on his face, it is indeed the case, the more than 10,000 troops in Guyuan, the entire Ming Dynasty, except for those elites in Liaodong, he also felt that no one could compare to them, including his own Ningxia army, after all, the training time of his Ningxia Wei's army was still short.

Moreover, the methods of these anti-thieves are really naïve, and it is useless to just surround them.

At some point, the number of rebels on the city wall began to decrease, or they got off the city wall, or went out of the city through the leaks to join the siege, and the scene fell into a stalemate for a while.

The anti-people came out of the city a little suddenly, but as Lu Hui said, these soldiers reacted very quickly, adjusting the formation in several circles while adjusting the formation to deal with it, while the rhythm of hitting the city gate on the other side did not stop.

In their hearts, the original Zhou Chi has always been their spiritual pillar, they know that Zhou Zongbing has done a lot of things for their salary, which can be called a great rebellion, so that they were killed, they are even more resentful, it is all for them, if those generals in the army ascend to the heights, they will definitely follow, make his mother rebel, and never retreat, but no.

Those Qianhu generals have always behaved very indifferently, and they are even very close to the new governor, which makes them puzzled and temporarily let go of those miscellaneous thoughts in their hearts.

And this time, the generals told them that it was Zhou Zongbing who exchanged his life for the amnesty of himself and others, and if he didn't work hard to make meritorious contributions, he would be sorry for Zhou Zongbing's death, so they let people say that Zhou Chi exchanged his life for a bunch of waste.

They were furious.

These words may not stand up to scrutiny, but the soldiers at the bottom are simple, so they are angry.

The army of the whole Ming Dynasty, before only Guyuan and Liaodong could get military salaries, after Ning Zhiyuan took office, now it is Ningxia and Liaodong, and they feel that they will not be worse than the soldiers of Liaodong.

They want to fight. Kill.

Kill the thief to prove yourself.

For a while, blood flew and screams were repeated.

At this time, there were 30,000 or 20,000 anti-people outside the city, and there were only 5,000 or 6,000 soldiers.

But Ning Zhiyuan immediately saw that the soldiers in Ningxia had a great advantage, and most of the corpses that fell were those who were anti-people, and the situation seemed to be very good.

On the city wall, Shen Yikui squinted at this scene, and the shock in his heart was even more indescribable, last time he was chased by more than 10,000 people in Li Jun and his party for dozens of days, not to mention the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in Ningxia, but he also knew a rough idea.

The discipline is clear, but the ability of individual soldiers is not necessarily much stronger than their own side, this is the previous Ningxia soldier, and this time looking at it, it is a trivial matter to have one enemy and two enemies, and my heart can't help but start sinking, but I think that I still have a back hand, so I relaxed a little and walked down the city wall.

There was a bang, the soldiers and the anti-people were still fighting, and the city gate was smashed open at this time, Lu Hui looked happy, feeling that the war was nearing the end.

"Brothers, charge me." Ning Zhiyuan ordered, and then rushed forward first, after practicing for so long, this was the first time to go to the battlefield, he felt that his blood was a little boiling, and the two thousand cavalry behind him began to rush to the battlefield, and launched a violent torture against the militia.

The head slipped and blood splattered.

Lu Hui felt that Ning Daguan had chosen the right time at this time, and he did not give an order as soon as the anti-people left the city, and now the city gate was wide open, neither early nor late, and he couldn't help but be convinced by this adult's military talent, but he didn't feel that it was a big deal.

This is just a law of the battlefield that should be clear to a thousand households.

The cavalry joined in the battle, and the pressure on the infantry suddenly decreased sharply, and for a while, the 30,000 rebels outside the city cried and screamed, and many people suddenly retreated.

The soldiers who entered the city maintained a posture of marching together, and the width of the city gate could accommodate only more than 20 people advancing at the same time, avoiding the danger of being unable to open the city, just like the previous city wall with so many large and small cracks, Ning Daguan did not choose to enter the city directly from the gaps, because as long as the thieves put some troops to guard there, one would be hacked to death if they came in.

There was a roar of groans and cries in the city.

The pace of the soldiers' march into the city slowed down, and they were still faintly retreating. Ning Zhiyuan cut down several of his close anti-thieves, and blood splashed on his body, making him frown, although he had adapted to this kind of life, he was still very disgusted by the filthy smell of blood.

The soldiers' reactions furrowed his brow even more. Normally he is a kind person, but on the battlefield, he is also not kind.

By the time the soldiers finished listening to their reports, the soldiers who had already entered the city had completely withdrawn, and only some old and weak women and children were pressing behind them.

When ordinary soldiers encounter this situation, as long as it is not an extremely cruel alien army, the team will subconsciously retreat, and the soldiers can brutally oppress the people and ruthlessly plunder the people's property, but they are not beasts.

Under Zhou Chi's isolated approach, this group of soldiers was obviously more simple than ordinary soldiers, so they seemed at a loss at this time.

Ning Zhiyuan, who looked at this scene, thought that he would never forget it for the rest of his life.

The emaciated old man, who could no longer stand upright, the emaciated young man with visible bone marks, and the woman with a dull face, walked slowly forward, as if in their consciousness they did not know what they were doing now.

He was furious.

It was still the people who came out in a steady stream, but the anti-people outside the city showed a glimmer of light in their eyes, and quickly approached the city gate.

"Brothers, kill me." Ning Zhi said with slightly red eyes, naturally he would not let those anti-people achieve their goals so easily.

The Ningxia soldiers were also outraged.

The cavalry rushed back and forth, the infantry rushed to kill, Ning Zhiyuan himself was also rushing back and forth, and the guards behind followed him unmovingly, although his own adult kung fu and others may no longer be opponents.

Ning Zhiyuan hated the filth of blood, but at this time he was covered with blood, but his expression was still slashing and killing, one blade was rolled, and the guards immediately replaced him with another, and the movement never stopped

The mood of death is spreading.

More than 10,000 people have come out of the city, and the anti-people in the city are also mixed in sporadically, and the sky is still gloomy.

Ning Zhiyuan was a little tired, turned his head and casually glanced at those people, but he happened to see the death of a Ningxia soldier, which made his eyes widen and feel a complex emotion spreading.

Bustling from the crowd of weak people who were driven out, an anti-citizen with a knife rushed out and stabbed the soldier on his side to death, the soldier he saw was so dead, Ning Daguan felt that he needed to make a choice.

There were still dark clouds floating in the sky at this time, and this choice made Ning Zhiyuan feel guilty, he gritted his teeth tightly, and watched a soldier wearing armor fall in front of him from time to time.

But on the battlefield, he was first and foremost the general of these people.

These people have nothing to do with him
