Chapter 267: Wang Teng's Decision

In December of the eighth year of Chongzhen, Haoge, the owner of the Blue Banner, led an army of 7,000 to storm Guangling City, and thousands of households in the city were injured in many places, and they always fought bloodily.

Originally, Haoge planned to postpone the siege until Wang Teng "ate the bait and took the bait", however, the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and the goose-feather-like snow fell sharply.

Staying outside the city, cold and cold, is not as comfortable as staying in the city.

The plan did not change quickly, and Hauge had no choice but to accept the request of his generals and attack the city with all his might.

When Jiannu exerted all his strength and at the same time divided more troops to attack the city, the defenders finally couldn't stop it.

On December 21, Guangling City fell, and Zhang Wang was killed in battle.

The soldiers of the Blue Banner burned, killed and plundered, and the rich county became a hell on earth.

Whether it is the poor people or the squire's family, the slaves are treated equally, they only need money, food, and women, and other than that, there is no one left alive.

When Zhang Biao sneaked outside the city, Jiannu was partying all night in the city.

The cheers and screams can be heard clearly from afar.

The accompanying soldiers couldn't hold it back, so they were about to rush out to fight to the death with Jiannu, but Zhang Biao stopped his companion.

In the dark night, no one knows where Jiannu's secret post is, so rushing out so rashly is a dead end!

If you even put your own life on the line, how can you save people?

In the end, Guangling Tanma quietly retreated.

At the head of Guangling City, Haoge looked into the distance and sighed with emotion, "Wang Teng, will you come?" ”

In order to anger the Guangling army, Haoge built the heads of the Guangling official army into a Jingguan and piled them up outside the city, and at the same time, hung Zhang Wang's body at the city gate.

This is a naked provocation, an insult!

Early the next morning, in the Shitishan Military Village, Zhang Biao met Wang Teng.

"My lord, Guangling City is finished"

Wang Tengtie's face was blue, "Can some people escape?" What about Zhang Wang? ”

"Zhang Qianhu was killed in battle, Jiannu hung his body at the gate of the city, the people of Guangling were killed and wounded, and only a few escaped"

"Send troops to meet them!"

The heavy snow falling from the sky is not conducive to the opening of the army, but Wang Teng can't watch Jiannu slaughter his own people!

Song Xiance coughed dryly, "My lord, Guangling has fallen, what is the benefit of sending troops at this time?" In case Jiannu is ambushed outside the city, how can we deal with ourselves? ”

Huang Hu was very unhappy, "This is not good, that is not possible, can you let Jiannu run rampant?" ”

Song Xiance personally experienced a series of battles in the Guangling Army, he was very optimistic about Wang Teng, and he couldn't bear to let the strength of the other party's painstaking management be ruined because of impulse, "My lord, the reason why Haoge hangs his body outside the door is to provoke us, whether it is Shiti Mountain or Dinghe Fort, it must be their next target, if the adults rush to send troops, it will only be taken advantage of by thieves."

Even the arrogant Yellow Tiger did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to defeat Jiannu on the plains.

For decades, the bitter cold environment of Liaodong has sharpened the men of the Jurchen tribe into real warriors.

From Baishan and Heishui to now occupy half of the country in eastern Liaoning, it took less than ten years for Huang Taiji to start.

In the past ten years, how many elite soldiers have died at the hands of Jiannu?

Although the Guangling army was well-equipped and won consecutive battles, it had no experience in fighting Jiannu head-on.

Jiannu is not a rogue, they will die to the last man under the leadership of Niu Lu Ezhen.

Wang Teng was depressed, "Yesterday, the superintendent sent a messenger, and the Tianxiong army returned to Shouyang, and it can only be turned back after the end of the month."

Everyone looked at each other, "What's wrong with Shouyang?" ”

"Li Zicheng seized Shouyang City, Ma Ke doesn't know whether he is alive or dead"

Huang Hu took a sip, "Waste, the city can't be defended well, it's not a pity to die."

Just imagine, if it wasn't for the fall of Shouyang, how could the Tianxiong Army turn around?

If the Tianxiong Army arrived in time, how could Guangling City fall?

It's good now, in the huge Ulzhou, there is only one army of Guangling Army, and there is no Ming Army in addition.

If Haoge breaks through, how should Wang Teng choose?

The situation in front of Wang Teng is very grim, and now it is no longer a simple question of whether to save people or not, but how the Guangling Army should protect itself!

It's freezing cold, and supplies are the most important.

Thinking of this, Wang Teng asked hurriedly: "Zhang Biao, have you ever heard about the warehouse in Guangling City?" ”

Zhang Biao's face was gloomy, "On the way back, I rescued one person, and he told me that the grain in the warehouse was only half burned, and Jiannu extinguished the fire."

Wang Teng regretted that a lot of the grain in the city was accumulated by him, and now it is good, it has become Haoge's military rations!

If there were no supplies, Zhenglan Banner would not be able to stay in Guangling for a long time, but it is difficult to say now, and no one knows how long Hauge will stay in the city.

When the group was discussing countermeasures, the soldiers outside came to report that Lingqiu had a messenger.

"Hurry up, please!"

At this time, the displaced people in Lingqiu were an important force, and Wang Teng planned to use their strength to fight the enemy together.

Suddenly, a dark-faced man paced into the hall, "Lingqiu has seen all the adults with his jaw open."

Wang Teng frowned, "Open jaw, I've seen you!" ”

Zhang Jaw smiled slightly, "Adults have excellent memories, and villains admire."

"You are the leader of the exile camp, why didn't you stay in the camp and come here"

Zhang Jaw clenched his fists, "My lord, I heard that Jiannu had arrived in Guangling, so I thought about helping my lord."

Wang Teng was a little surprised, when he took in the homeless, it was just a thought, but now, the homeless people want to repay the favor, which is really surprising, "How many people are there in the camp?" ”

With his jaw held high, "After the adults left, I waited for day and night training, and now there are 2,000 village soldiers!" ”

"Do you have any weapons?"

"Lingqiu County has made a compassionate heart and funded a batch of ordnance, but it is still a drop in the bucket, and now, many township soldiers use bamboo guns."

Wang Teng's heart was sour, he was such a group of displaced people, who heard that Guangling was in trouble, but he wanted to sacrifice his life to help.

It seems that loyal and righteous people exist after all, and shameless villains like Fei Qing are still a minority.

Wang Teng was very moved, "Jiannu is not as good as a rogue, fight head-on, the Guangling Army has no chance of winning, you better stay in Lingqiu, don't go anywhere."

Zhang Jaw was a little embarrassed, "My lord doesn't know, when I came, the township soldiers were already ready, if Jiang County Commander agreed, maybe they were already on the road at this time."

Wang Teng's face changed greatly, "Nonsense! ”

A group of homeless people who have not been trained for a long time, if they encounter Jiannu, wouldn't they be sent to death?

"Zhou Yuji"

"The Last Will Be"

"Quickly lead a hundred horsemen to Lingqiu, be sure to stop the villagers, no one is allowed to move without my order"

"No!"

"Huang Hu, give you 300 men and horses, and immediately set off for Dinghe Fort to assist Huang Degong in defending the fort, there must be no mistake"

"No!"

"Tong Cheng, after I leave the village, you are responsible for guarding the city"

"My lord, where are you going?"

"I want to answer the people of Guangling!"

"Adults, never! The Jiannu cavalry is highly skilled in martial arts, and adults must not be in danger."

Wang Teng shook his head, "Don't persuade me, I've made up my mind."
