Chapter 68: Under the Sun

Zhu Changyuan is still twenty miles away from Yuan'an County, and eighty miles away from Dangyang City!

The eighty-mile road is almost all mountain roads, and for ordinary people, it takes a day, but for Zhu Changyuan's two hundred heavy armor light riders, it is only a little more than an hour. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info=music=text=novel.x.co

And in Dangyang City, there is no one else who dares to be bold enough to fraudulently use Zhu Changyuan's name to recruit troops, it is Zhang Xianzhong.

Three days ago, Zhang Xianzhong came out from the depths of the mountain, estimating that it would take ten days for Zhu Changyuan to get out of the mountain, and if he wanted to enter Sichuan, it was useless to have more than 50 people around him, and he also needed to assemble a strong army, so he planned to use the time when he first reached Dangyang and Zhu Changyuan was far away in the mountains to recruit troops, and then take a boat to the west.

Zhang Xianzhong is a smart man, when he came out of the Shennong Mountain, he went directly to the city of Dangyang, but he couldn't get in when he got to the city, because of the upright night, and the city defense of Dangyang was quite good, the city was strong, and the defenders were five hundred.

With a strong city like Dangyang City and 500 troops garrisoned, even if 2,000 people attacked the city, it would be very difficult to take it down, let alone Zhang Xianzhong, who only had more than 50 people.

What to do?

Naturally, there is a way, and a strong attack will definitely not work, so there is only outwitting.

Zhang Xianzhong is also a smart person, and asked his subordinates to shout at the people in Dangyang City: "Open the door!" ā€

The other party naturally refused to open the door, and asked him who he was and why he opened the door in the middle of the night?

Zhang Xianzhong said: "I am Zhu Changyuan, the garrison of Xiangyang of the Ming Dynasty, because I came here to chase Zhang Xianzhong, please open the door and let me go in to rest." ā€

The gatekeeper didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he called Dangyang Ling over.

When Yang Ling saw Zhang Xianzhong, there were only a few dozen people, and the "Zhang Xianzhong" led by him looked very young, which was also in line with Zhu Changyuan's age. In order not to offend Zhu Changyuan, he ordered his subordinates to open the door and greet him in person.

It was Liu Wenxiu who pretended to be Zhu Changyuan. After a few words of greeting with Dangyang Ling, he said that he wanted to rest. To eat.

When Yang Ling personally accompanied, a good banquet was arranged.

Zhang Xianzhong and others first ate and drank enough, and then tied up the county order at the banquet, took over the entire city defense of Dangyang County, and then passed a letter in the name of the county order, saying that Zhu Changyuan passed by here and wanted to replenish the people, so he recruited troops and horses.

Unexpectedly, five or six hundred people were recruited in one day.

Thereupon. In view of the fact that Zhu Changyuan's three words are too easy to use, Zhang Xianzhong simply did not do anything, so he abused his name in this Dangyang City and recruited soldiers for three days in a row.

There is an endless stream of young people from the surrounding areas who come to join the army.

As a result, the news of Zhu Changyuan's arrival in Dangyang was spread again and again, and even went viral.

After learning the news, the Yuan'an County Commander, sixty miles away, also sent a book to Xiangyang to inquire about the truth, and Xiangyang naturally couldn't tell what was going on!

Yiling Mansion is even worse, and even flew pigeons to pass the book to the imperial court.

++++++++++++++++++

"Hahahaha!" Zhang Xianzhong is in the county office. After listening to Liu Wenxiu's report, he couldn't stop laughing, and said: "Zhu Changyuan, Zhu Changyuan, it's really admirable." used his name to recruit troops, I didn't expect it to be so easy to use, it's only been three days, and I recruited 2,000 people in three days! ā€

"Yes, Father!" Liu Wenxiu said: "I heard that many people who have joined the army are still on the way, and in two days there should be more people who are like-minded." ā€

"That's good!" Zhang Xianzhong patted the table and said, "Empty the county treasury, if the silver is not enough, ask those big households to ask for it, if there is resistance." Kill on the spot. When we gather enough 10,000 horses, we will take a boat west to take Shuzhong. At that time, this country of abundance will fall into the hands of Ben Shuai! ā€

"Father!" Li Dingguo was far-sighted, frowned and said, "The child is afraid that Zhu Changyuan will come out of the mountain. If he had learned that his father-in-law was here to buy soldiers and horses in his name, he would not have attacked him in anger. ā€

"No problem!" Zhang Xianzhong said: "Ben Shuai is naturally afraid of him, but unfortunately, he can't get out now, I estimate that he came out of the mountains, at least five days later, let's set off in three days, take the waterway up, his horses are not dominant, and this goes to Xichuan for more than 10,000 miles, we are safe." ā€

"But, father, Zhu Changyuan always does things unexpectedly, if he goes out of the mountain ahead of schedule this time. This... This... You can't help but be prepared! ā€

Li Dingguo always had a feeling of uneasiness, no, it shouldn't be said to be uneasy, but as long as it was about Zhu Changyuan, he would naturally be careful.

It's really because of Zhu Changyuan, who acts too hard to guess.

"Dingguo!" Li Dingguo finished speaking, but Zhang Xianzhong was unhappy, patted the table and said lazily: "A man can lose anything, but he can't lose his courage and ambition!" Are you scared of Zhu Changyuan? ā€

"Father-in-law, child, child just thinks that it is better to leave late than early!"

"Hmm!" Zhang Xianzhong put his heart into his heart and said: "To be honest, I'm also afraid of him Zhu Changyuan, this guy is a sheep on weekdays, and he looks harmless to humans and animals, but once he arrives on the battlefield, he can scare people's souls out." ā€

"But so what? Although his father-in-law was afraid of him, he knew that the knife was just and easy to break, and a young man like him became famous, and he didn't know when it would be broken and where it would be, and it wouldn't grow! So let's be ready to make a comeback, if we were all scared by him a few times like you, that guy would have dominated the world a long time ago. ā€

"Father taught me a lesson!"

Li Dingguo no longer defended, because he just had a bad premonition and had no evidence.

Zhang Xianzhong stood up, looked at Li Dingguo, and then at Liu Wenxiu, and said, "You are both father's sons, and I will take you to treat them as my own." Now that he is expected to die in battle, Nengqi was captured by Zhu Changyuan and sent to the imperial court, and there are only two of you by my father's side. ā€

"So, cheer up Ben Shuai, what is Zhu Changyuan afraid of? It's that he's here now, what's the matter if we raise troops to fight in the past, when the time comes, we'll go into battle for my father, and be a good man on the battlefield for you to see! ā€

"Father and hero!"

Liu Wenxiu and Li Dingguo complimented at the same time.

As soon as Zhang Xianzhong's was blown, Master Tang ran into the county office and found Zhang Xianzhong and said, "My lord, it's not good, the soldiers guarding the city came to report, saying that there was a team of sergeants outside the door." Our people are afraid that some thieves will attack the city, and they have already closed the city gates! ā€

"What?" Zhang Xianzhong was taken aback and prayed secretly in his heart. Secret Dao: It's not Zhu Changyuan, it's not Zhu Changyuan. It wasn't Zhu Changyuan, who asked, "Do you know whose soldiers and horses it is?" ā€

While speaking, a general with a full body armor ran in front of Zhang Xianzhong and said loudly: "General, it's not good, a team of soldiers came outside, saying that let's open the city gate, if we don't open the door, he will attack the city." ā€

"Who's soldiers. How many people came? ā€

Zhang Xianzhong hurriedly asked.

"There aren't many humanitarians." The general's tone was very relaxed when he spoke, and said: "It's only two hundred, the general doesn't have to worry, their two hundred people are still cavalry, I am a tall county town, and cavalry is useless, so my subordinates 怂怂怂怂怂怂 ā€

This subordinate is the original guard of Dangyang City, and he has always regarded Zhang Xianzhong as Zhu Changyuan.

Li Dingguo and Ai Nengqi looked at Zhang Xianzhong suspiciously, and saw that his face was bloodless. His body was still trembling and muttering to himself, "It's not him, you must be wrong." Misread. ā€

Completely lost the pride of the bragging two minutes ago.

"Whew, whew, whew!" Zhang Xianzhong first took a few breaths, and then asked, "Is that person starting to attack the city now?" ā€

The general replied: "Back to the general, not yet!" ā€

"Good!" Zhang Xianzhong's face suddenly flashed with a hint of joy, and he said secretly: Zhu Changyuan only knows that someone is pretending to be his name in Dangyang, and maybe he really doesn't know that it was the general.

"Put all the newly recruited soldiers on the walls of the city and defend it, and if he does not attack it, do not open the gates. Just deal with him, and I'll go and get ready for a while. Then break the enemy with you and the others! ā€

"Good! Obey the general's orders! The general was really overjoyed and excited. What it is like to be able to fight side by side with the famous Zhu Changyuan in the dark path is really exciting.

sent the general away, and the only four people left in the house: Zhang Xianzhong, Tang Bingshuo, Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu didn't speak, one by one, you look at me, I look at you!

"Don't look at it." Zhang Xianzhong's eyes narrowed slightly, made a decisive move, gritted his teeth, and wanted to cut Zhu Changyuan with a thousand knives.

Liu Wenxiu thought that his father would really go into battle, and then fought enthusiastically, and waited for a long time only to wait for Zhang Xianzhong's two rather heroic words: "!" ā€

++++++++++

Zhu Changyuan's two hundred iron horsemen stopped outside the door, shouted several times, and no one opened the door, so he couldn't help but be angry, took out a big horn from his system, and shouted towards the city: "Listen to the people in the city, I am guarding Zhu Changyuan in Xiangyang, I heard that someone in the city is recruiting troops and horses in my name, who is so bold, but please come out and meet with someone to distinguish the truth from the false." ā€

When Zhu Changyuan shouted like this, the soldiers at the head of the city were stunned one by one?

He is Zhu Changyuan, if the following goods are Zhu Changyuan, then who are the people in the city?

The leading general's name is Liu Yuan, and his brain is more active than that of ordinary soldiers, and he said: "Your Excellency is pretending, General Zhu Changyuan is in the county office, how can you come over and pretend, don't leave, and wait for me to recruit a wave of people, and leave no armor behind when you go out of the city." ā€

Zhu Changyuan said secretly: Okay, you're here to see who doesn't leave a piece of armor.

But after waiting left and right for nearly two hours, I didn't see the soldiers coming, and I always felt that I had fallen for those boys, and raised the speaker in my hand and asked, "Where is the Yang Order, come out and talk to me!" ā€

Liu Yuan laughed, poked his head out of the city, and said, "My master has a lot of opportunities, how to see you, I advise you to retreat quickly." ā€

After speaking, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said secretly: Yes, where did Yang Ling go, since Zhu Changyuan came, why haven't you seen Master Zhang? Also, didn't Zhu Changyuan say that he was ready to fight right away, why haven't he seen anyone yet.

Liu Yuan was suspicious, he couldn't hold it anymore, and his eyes looked at the cavalry troops under the city from time to time, and the more he looked, the more he looked like it! I couldn't help but jump in my heart, it's over, it's over.

The following troops, whether in terms of military appearance or momentum, should be more like the legendary iron-clad Hades Guard, and the previous one is like a remnant of the defeated army!

No, I'll have to check it out.

Liu Yuan felt that he ran to the county government to take a look, where were there still people, and after asking left and right, he found out that Zhang Xianzhong only ran away secretly from the south gate of the city with the three of his subordinates!

Run! Run! Run!

"Open the door, open the door, open the door!" Liu Yuan now understood everything, and hurriedly ran over to open the door for Zhu Changyuan, but when he ran to the city gate, he realized that there was no need to open it at all, Zhu Changyuan had already opened it by himself.

As for how it was opened, he didn't want to know anymore. (To be continued.) )
