Seeing this, the refugees who had been clamoring opened their mouths in surprise.

"Good archery!"

It took a long time for someone to react and shout.

The refugees reacted and shouted loudly.

"Big brother, I can't see that this person is quite powerful, I think the arrow is at least two inches into the green brick."

At this time, a tall and thin idle man who was watching the excitement from a distance said to a person with a Chinese character face and thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"You're right, I didn't expect his men to be so powerful."

Guozi nodded and said solemnly.

"It seems that our Ming army still has talents, I thought that our Ming army would only shoot firearms, and we have long forgotten to shoot arrows."

The tall and thin idle man said with a smile.

"We are the Great Ming Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger, and it is not surprising that there are such talents."

Guozi said with a smile.

The tall and thin idle men think about it, they are very rich, and the people are thousands, and it is not surprising that they can find someone who can open such a strong bow.

The two North Korean soldiers standing at the gate of the castle were terrified when they saw this.

The arrow hit the big characters on the fort, and if Shangguan knew about it, it would have been repaid.

They had the intention to stop it, but considering that they had just angered the Ming Dynasty military attaché, they decided to report the matter to the higher-ups, and let the higher-ups make up their minds.

"Good shot!"

Lu Yan laughed, Meng Kuo would really give him face.

Meng Kuo had a calm face, and he didn't care at all about the surprised eyes of everyone.

The remaining Iron Eagle Warriors glanced at each other, and they all took out a three-edged armor-piercing arrow, and then aimed at the three big characters of Mikushi Fort.

"Don't!"

The North Korean soldiers wailed in their hearts.

One arrow is enough, if so many arrows are fired, their superiors will definitely want to pick their skins.

Sometimes reality always goes in a bad direction, and those Iron Eagle sharps shoot arrows with their bows, and those arrows all shoot on the string of words, and sink deep into the stone.

Seeing this, those Liaodong refugees all applauded.

Lu Yan also bowed slightly, and the performance of these people made him very satisfied.

"Big brother, when did we have so many archery masters in our army?"

The tall and thin idle man said with a look of surprise.

I'm afraid that even ordinary generals and lieutenant generals can't find so many archery masters, after all, there are fewer and fewer people in the Ming army who are proficient in bows and arrows.

"That's right."

The country said with a solemn face.

"Big brother, I think we should not take refuge in Lord Mao, this little general is also good. You see, none of his men are mediocre. can recruit so many heroes, presumably he must be extraordinary. ”

The tall and thin idle man said.

Guozi face pondered for a while, and finally nodded.

So the national character face and the tall and thin idle man squeezed away everyone, and then walked to Lu Yan's horse.

Guozi arched his hand and said: "Yang Jiguang in Xia Tieling, there are a few words to say here. ”

"A strong man has something to say, but please speak directly."

Lu Yan said with a smile.

"I'm afraid that this method of adults is not convincing, only those who have specialized in archery training can pass the selection of adults, and I am afraid that some other skills will be missed."

Guozi said with his head held high.

"So the strong man thinks he is a capable person."

Lu Yan said with a smile.

"That's right, the villain's family has been in the army for generations, my father followed Lord Magui on an expedition to Korea, and my ancestor followed Ning Yuanbo to kill the Mongols, so it can be said that he has been in the army for generations and is skilled in martial arts. The villain also spent the night in Kaiyuan and did not accept it, because the traitor Jin Yu took refuge in Jiannu, and the villain was unwilling to rebel, so he had to flee to North Korea. ”

Yang Jiguang said.

Lu Yan looked at this person with interest, but he didn't expect him to be such a well-known person.

If you don't collect it at night, you are generally the elite in the army, that is, this person's martial arts will not be bad.

"What weapon will you use?"

Lu Yan asked.

"Whether it's a knife or a gun, the villain is very skilled. If the adults don't believe it, they can find a competition with the villain. ”

Yang Jiguang said, and after speaking, he glanced demonstratively at the Iron Eagle Ruishi behind him.

Seeing this, those Iron Eagle Rui were very dissatisfied, and they dared to provoke the beams.

So an Iron Eagle Warrior immediately came out and said, "My lord, since this brother is so confident, let me accompany him through a few tricks." ”

"No, I'd better do it."

Not to be outdone, Meng Kuo said.

Lu Yan shook his head after thinking about it, and then said: "The sword and gun have no eyes, so the competition is still forgotten." ”

The knives and guns in their hands are all murderous guys, and if one can't stop it, it may be a human life, Lu Yan feels that this is inappropriate.

"Well, you can practice your sword technique for me to see. As long as your sword skills can satisfy me, I will accept you. ”

Lu Yan thought for a while and said.

After speaking, Lu Yan motioned to a North Korean soldier at the door to hand over his waist knife to Yang Jiguang.

After taking the knife, Yang Jiguang was not polite.

He immediately brandished his knife, and danced a knife in a fierce and cold light.

Speaking of knife skills, Lu Yan is a complete layman.

So he whispered to Meng Kuo, "What do you think?" ”

"It should have taken a lot of hard work, but there are some places that are not suitable for the way of battle formation."

Meng Kuo said after taking a closer look.

"Okay then, the official will accept you."

Lu Yan said with a smile.

Since he has been able to enter the blinded eyes, it means that this person still has merit.

"Thank you, sir."

Yang Jiguang couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"This is Xu Guangsheng, a brother in my army, who also works together all night without harvesting, and all kinds of martial arts are not under me."

Yang Jiguang pointed to the tall and thin idle man beside him and said.

"Then let's keep one piece."

Lu Yan said with a smile.

"Master Xie."

The tall and thin idle man is also overjoyed.

*******

*******

In the dark night, a crooked moon hung high in the sky.

There were several fires burning in a modest pier by the sea, and the light of the fires could be seen from a long distance.

A few people dressed as civilians kept looking into the distance by the fire, as if waiting for something.

It didn't take long for more than a dozen boats of various types to quietly approach the shore.

Then one of them jumped out of the boat and connected to the other.

Soon, the man signaled that everything was fine.

"Hurry up, everyone, everyone is in a group of five, and no one is allowed to leave the team and act privately."

Chen Zhong said softly.

One by one, the dark shadows quickly walked down the ship by the moonlight.

Lu Yan, Gan Cheng, Meng Kuo and others also led their horses and walked down from the boat.

Soon all the people went ashore, Lu Yan's mood was a little excited, this was the first time he participated in the night attack, and it was also a famous battle such as the capture of Zhenjiang Fort.

He looked around and found that Chen Zhong, Zhang Pan, and the guard Ding Wenli were talking quietly with a man in black.

After Chen Zhong finished communicating with the man in black, Chen Zhong summoned all his leaders.

"This is Chen Xing, the servant of Chen Liangce Chen Zhongjun of Zhenjiang Fort, although Chen Zhongjun is in Cao Ying, but he has always been interested in the Ming Dynasty, and after learning that my army is coming, he immediately expressed his willingness to Lord Mao as an internal response. This time he will help us destroy the enemies of Zhenjiang Fort. ”

Chen Zhong introduced the man in black to everyone, and this man in black was the person sent by Chen Liangce to contact them.

The man in black greeted everyone with a smile, Mao Wenlong's secrecy work was in place, and everyone didn't know who Zhenjiang Fort should be until now.

Lu Yan already knew this, but he didn't know the specific details.

From their conversation, Lu Yan learned that the garrison Ding Wenli turned out to be Chen Liangce's brother, and the rebellion against Chen Liangce was also promoted by Ding Wenli.

After hundreds of people came here, it was inevitable that all kinds of voices would occur, especially some of them were Tunding and Minzhuang, almost any concept of military discipline.

Fortunately, this place is very remote, very far from Zhenjiang Fort, so you don't have to worry about being discovered by the enemy.

Chen Zhong and Zhang Pan immediately sent their servants to play and suppress, and after a burst of whipping and threats, the chaotic voices stopped.

Seeing this, Lu Yan shook his head slightly, in addition to being physically strong, some of these people's military qualities are not even as good as high school students.

But don't ask too much of them, as is the case in all countries now.

Chen Zhong and Zhang Pan discussed, and then led the team to Zhenjiang Fort.

Zhenjiang City is Jiulian City, 10 kilometers northeast of Dandong city center. It leans on Zhendong Mountain in the north, is 2.5 kilometers away from the Yalu River in the south across the right branch of the Love River, and is 55 kilometers away from the mouth of the Yalu River in Dadonggou on the opposite bank.

Jiulian City has a long history. It used to be the former site of the Liao Dynasty to Yuancheng, the Jin Dynasty Posu Mansion, and the Yuan Dynasty Posa Mansion Governor. In order to defend against the frequent incursions and plundering and killing of Japanese pirates in our country and along the coast of Korea, in September of the 24th year of Wanli (1596), Gengshen built a new city at the site of "Jiulian" ("Mingshenzong Records").

Its circumference is 1,040 meters, covering an area of about 70,000 square meters" (Ren Hongkui, "Dandong Historical Site"). Because the purpose of building this city is to guard the eastern fortress and protect the safety of the river and sea, it is named after "Zhenjiang".

When they arrived not far from Zhenjiang Fort, Chen Zhong and Zhang Pan had already separated, and the sky was still dark.

In the distance, there were several torches lit at the head of Zhenjiang Fort, like a monster in the darkness, standing in his field of vision.

Lu Yan looked at the position of the moon and estimated that it was about three o'clock in the morning.

Next is the armor, the ancient armor was very heavy, such as the Song Dynasty's Buren armor, which weighed almost thirty kilograms.

If you rush with such heavy armor, you won't have the strength to get to the battlefield.

Although Lu Yan's cotton armor is not so heavy, it is unbearable to wear it for several miles. Therefore, he put his armor on his horse and waited until he reached Zhenjiang before putting on his armor and going into battle.

Zhang Xiaoyi helped Lu Yan put on the cotton armor, then put on the arm guards and tied the armor skirt.

Although it was very dark, by the moonlight, he found that Zhang Xiaoyi's hands were shaking very badly, and he made mistakes several times when he tied his armor.

So he whispered to him: "Don't be afraid, follow me for a while, and the Iron Eagle Warrior will protect us." ”

"Hmm."

Zhang Xiaoyi nodded hurriedly.

In the past, when he listened to the commentary, he often talked about how tragic the siege war was, so he had an inexplicable fear of the siege war.

He knew the ability of the Iron Eagle Ruishi, and a few days ago, Mo Rigen was a little unconvinced that Lu Yan regarded the Iron Eagle Ruishi as his personal guard, so he found an opportunity to secretly compete with them.

As a result, the archery was almost evenly divided, and the cavalry archery was inferior to the Mongols, and the other fighters who fought the Iron Eagle almost crushed them, which also made Mozhigen and them have to obey.

Soon Lu Yan put on the cotton armor, which was relatively light, and it did not have much impact on his movements.

But this also means that the power of protection is relatively small, and the protective firearms of cotton armor are good, but the protection against bows and arrows and knives and guns is not very good.

Zhang Xiaoyi took clean water and wet Lu Yan's cotton armor, which had stronger protection against firearms after being wet.

Lu Yan looked at his subordinates and found that both the cowardly Xue Wei and the Iron Eagle Ruishi looked as usual, and even a little excited.

This also reminded him of the ancient evaluation of the Qin people, that is, when they heard the war, they were happy.

It's just that now that there is no reward for battle merit, can they still maintain such high morale?

Lu Yan felt a little worried about this.

Qi Ah Da and Qi Lao Er's expressions were much worse, and they were a little nervous when they went to the battlefield for the first time.

Lu Yan stepped forward to encourage them, and Yang Jiguang and Xu Guangsheng looked as usual, they were both veterans who had fought big battles, and this little scene was not a problem.

At this time, a tunding in the back took out a box, and when it was opened, it turned out to be some coal blocks.

"Paint this on your face, and remember that the person with ink on your face in Zhenjiang Fort is our internal response."

Chen Zhong said to them.

Lu Yan nodded secretly, it turned out that this is how he distinguished the enemy from me.

Lu Yan and Meng Kuo took the ink coal and applied it to their faces, and soon all the people here became big faces.

Next, Chen Zhong assigned the task, Gan Ying, Feiwei, Ji Chang and Mo Rigen they used bows and arrows to shoot the soldiers guarding the fort at the head of the city, and Lu Yan, Meng Kuo and other iron eagle warriors followed Chen Zhong to the city to kill the enemy.

At the same time, it was also announced that there was a plan to confuse the enemy, and at the right time many people would shout that the Ming army had attacked in order to break the enemy's morale.

Before the start of the war, Chen Zhong carried out the final pre-war general mobilization.

"This war is a very important battle for us and for Master Mao. Master Mao assured us that if this battle can be won, all the generals below the rank of 100 will be promoted to one level. Ordinary soldiers who behead the second level can be promoted to the first level. ”

Hearing this, many people's breath became heavy, and being promoted to the next level was a very tempting reward.

But Chen Zhong continued: "The first person to climb to the top of the city is the title of Gabai. Promote the chief officer to one level, and reward another hundred taels of silver. After the city was breached, in addition to the food and ordnance, the captured silver hair-sama had promised to take out half of it and distribute it to everyone. In addition, Lord Mao will also reward each person with three taels of silver. ”

Hearing such a generous reward, many people were so excited that their faces flushed.

That's a real reward!

"My lord, what about us? Can we also be promoted? ”

At this time, a tunding behind him asked.

"You are the same as ordinary soldiers, anyone who can behead the second level can be promoted to the first level."

Chen Zhong said to him.

Hearing this, those tunding were excited.

All of a sudden, the team became noisy.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still some distance from Zhenjiang Fort, maybe the enemy would have been alarmed a long time ago.

Seeing their excited expressions, Chen Zhong did not stop them this time, but secretly thought to himself, sure enough, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward.

After their emotions slowly calmed down, Chen Zhong's tone suddenly changed, and then he said coldly: "But I will also say ugly things on my head, who will dare to sneak and cheat and escape from the battle for a while, don't blame this official for not being merciful at that time." When the time comes, the ruler will take his head and sacrifice the flag. ”

"My lord, please rest assured, when the time comes, you don't need to make a move, this official will be the first to behead him."

Mr. Qian, Zhang Yuanli, said in a low voice.

"Yes, whoever dares to escape, we will never let him go."

Others have taken a stand.

Chen Zhong nodded, and at this time, he heard a rooster crowing in the distance.

So he immediately ordered the siege of the city, and they agreed with Chen Liangce that it was the time when the rooster crowed and began to attack the city.

Gan Cheng, Mo Rigen and others walked in the front with bows and arrows, the bow was wound, and the bow and arrows were on the bow, ready to shoot at any time.

Then there are those elite soldiers and volunteers, and Tieying Ruishi and Lu Yan are also among them.

Some of the family members carried three improvised ladders, which were brought with the help of the tunding.

The strength of Zhenjiang Fort is not high, only about six or seven zhang, Chen Zhong believes that launching a sudden sneak attack is very likely to land the city in one fell swoop.

They were getting closer and closer to Zhenjiang Fort, and they could even see the figures on Zhenjiang Fort.

In the distance, there was a reprimand from the top of the city, as if the soldiers defending the city were asleep, causing the guards who came to inspect to scold.

This made Lu Yan's heart full of gloom, he didn't expect the enemy to be so heavily guarded, and there were still people coming to inspect it so late.

Mozhigen and the others continued to move forward, just keeping their eyes fixed on the figures at the head of the city, and if they noticed anything strange here, they would shoot an arrow at them.

*****

Tong San was not surnamed Tong, and later changed his surname to Tong after becoming Tong Yangzhen's family, and he was a close confidant of Zhenjiang pseudo-guerrilla Tong Yangzhen.

Since the Tong family took refuge in the Jurchens, as a family member, of course, he also took refuge in the past.

In order to reward them for taking the initiative to take refuge, the Tong brothers were entrusted with important tasks, and Tong San was also promoted to the position of general manager.

If this all continues, everything will be good.

Perhaps in the future, his son will be able to inherit his official position and become the military attache of the Later Jin for generations.

It's just a pity that it hasn't been peaceful recently, and it is rumored everywhere that Mao Wenlong has come back with a large army, which makes Tong San feel very worried, and he doesn't know if his future will be affected because of this.

Although Tong Yangzhen scoffed at this, he didn't dare to be careless.

He ordered the fort to be tightened and the number of men guarding the fort was tripled at night.

No one was allowed to open the gates of the city at night without his warrant, otherwise he would be punished as a collaborator.

Moreover, he ordered his cronies to take turns patrolling the city walls every night, and tonight it was Tong San's turn.

When Tong San inspected the city wall, he found that several soldiers on the city wall were asleep, which of course made him feel extremely annoyed.

So he took out his horsewhip and beat these lazy soldiers fiercely, so that these soldiers scolded their father and called their mother.

The other soldiers were frightened and silent, and they were all standing up straight, not daring to slack off.

At this moment, a small soldier felt as if a figure was moving in the distance.

He looked closely, but the moonlight was so weak that he couldn't see it too clearly.

He pricked up his ears and listened, and as the sound of the night was far away, he heard the faint sound of Si Si Suo.

Thank you very much for the objections and Wang Shengfang's reward, this chapter is 5000 words, I won't tear it down.
