Let's say that Li Guo thought that Fugu City would not send troops, and it hurt to be idle outside Fugu City, so he sent most of the child soldiers out, leaving only more than 300 people to be stationed in the four directions of Fugu City to monitor, and they were allowed to enter but not leave.

Because of the blockade of Fugu County's contact with the outside world, several groups of people sent by Fugu County to ask for help were detained.

Fugu County ordered Zhang Jinzhong and Wang Xi, the general manager of Qian, not to worry about it now. The food in the city was still enough, and the bandits in the countryside did not affect the county, so the two of them postponed the war vigorously.

The landlords who escaped from the township urged the bandits one by one, and Zhang Jinzhong and Wang Xi looked confident.

"Gentry, don't worry, we have already gone to the governor Lord Hong Chengchou for help, presumably soon, Lord Hong's soldiers and horses will arrive, and at that time, those bandits who don't know the height of the sky will definitely be swept away!" Zhang Jinzhong said.

"Yes, the county lord is reasonable, the most important situation now is to guard the city and not give the bandits a chance to take advantage of it!" Wang Xi didn't dare to fight, so he cooperated with Zhang Jinzhong and said.

Those landlords scolded and scolded, but there was no way but to wait for Lord Hong's people through the autumn water.

However, this situation was broken by one event, the military quartermaster was robbed.

Because Fugu and Hequ experienced war and the army was not in order, Hong Chengchou, the governor of the three sides, decided to prepare the military.

Hong Chengchou was a rare handsome talent in the late Ming Dynasty, although there were also things like corruption and deduction of military salaries, but in comparison, it was not too greedy, and it did have some reputation. And he is dedicated enough to military affairs, and he does have some ability.

Therefore, Hong Chengchou transferred some armor weapons from the arsenal to Fugu and Hequ for the city defense and military garrison of these two places and the Great Wall Pass of Fugu and Hequ.

Although in these two places, the war of the peasant army has subsided, and the pass of the Great Wall has not been attacked by the Tartars outside the pass because of its steepness, but these two places are now subordinate to the three sides, and the military affairs are still complete. It's just that these two places don't matter, so the supplies to these two places come later.

However, these military supplies happened to be met by Li Guo. To be precise, it was Wang Si, the leader of the child soldiers under Li Guo, who ran into it.

Li Guo only had about 300 people outside Fugu City, and now there was no battle to fight, but he was only responsible for surveillance. Three hundred men watched each of the four gates of Fugu, so that each team had only seventy or eighty men, all of whom were child soldiers.

Li Guo is at the north gate, Tie Dan and Luo Hu are at the east gate and west gate. And it was Wang Si who led the team at the south gate.

When dividing the troops, Li Guo specially instructed the leaders of these child soldiers. "It seems that the enemy will not come out of the city, so you are only going to the sentinel to investigate, not to fight the enemy. First, you don't have many people, and second, you're still young. You're all seventeen, but you're fourteen or fifteen years old, so you have to be safe. ”

"Daddy Li, don't be afraid, if the enemy dares to come out of the city, kill them!" Tie Dan said.

"That is, the enemy is coming, can you let them run?" Luo Hu continued.

Li is two feet when he goes up, "I said it in vain, didn't I, I want you to pay attention to safety, do you understand?" Fighting a war requires paying attention to ways and means, and you are still young, so you can learn to fight, but you must not fight hard! Remember, just let me know when something happens. ”

Li Guo looked at Wang Si, Wang Si didn't say a word, and looked very understanding.

"Do you understand?" Li asked.

"Daddy Li, I understand, do what you say!" Wang Si's eyes were full of wit.

"Well, sensible." Li Guo touched Wang Si's head with satisfaction, then turned his head and said to Tie Dan and Luo Hu, "Two little donkeys, they are not obedient at all. ”

So, Tie Dan, Luo Hu and Wang Si took people with them.

Although these child soldiers are young, they are extremely loyal to Li Guo, and they are also extremely serious about what Li Guo tells them to do. So, even though there has been no news of the enemy for many days now, they are still very alert.

On this day, Wang Si and the child soldiers had just finished breakfast, and the sentry came to report that "there is an enemy!" ”

Wang Si immediately jumped on horseback, drew his knife, and shouted, "Prepare for battle!" ”

The child soldiers jumped on their horses and drew their weapons.

The enemy did not come out of the city, Wang Si looked from a distance, and saw a big cart in the distance, the car was loaded with a lot of things, and there were about a hundred Ming troops guarding the cart and walking in the direction of Fugu City.

Wang Si kept Li Guo's words in mind and reported the situation in time, so Wang Si ordered a child soldier to report to Li Guo and inform the enemy.

Immediately, Wang Si waved his knife and shouted, "Come on, kill!" Kill those Ming soldiers for me! ”

The child soldiers roared and waved their weapons, like newborn calves, screaming and killing the Ming army. The galloping horses' hooves kicked up a cloud of smoke.

The one who escorted the supplies was a general of the trilateral yamen, and he still had some martial arts, bravery, and some strategy. Therefore, when I arrived at the boundary of Fugu, I heard that there was chaos in Fugu, and this guy always hesitated for a moment, then stopped and walked, and went around, and finally bypassed the banditry, and saw that he was about to arrive at Fugu.

However, he suddenly saw a group of cavalrymen holding swords and guns, roaring and killing.

This guy was always a little flustered, but then he calmed down and said to his soldiers, "Don't panic, prepare for battle." ”

But this order did not work, because the soldiers were already panicking. Who are you working for these days? Don't even have a military salary, and still fight? When it's time to work hard, I say that there is a reward, what do you usually do? Lord Hong Chengchou is good, but it's just that his pro-army conditions are better, what good can we miscellaneous soldiers do? Also ready to fight! Get ready for a fart!

Once the soldiers have this kind of thinking, their morale is bound to be low. People who can't compare to Li Guo, although the conditions are not much stronger than those of the Ming army, but the propaganda is very strong. Moreover, these child soldiers couldn't even save their lives, and Li Guo took them in and raised them. It is not enough to repay the kindness, it is precisely to show oneself, and the combat effectiveness is different.

Therefore, looking at the masked child soldiers who were screaming and killing, the soldiers of the Ming army retreated.

The one always boosted morale, and he also had some ability, so he brought a dozen people on horseback to kill.

Wang Si was very brave, but never reckless, and when he saw that the Ming army guarding the cart was somewhat welcome, he ordered the soldiers behind him to "release the arrow!" ”

A rain of arrows passed, and more than a dozen guards shot the total Ming army to *, and the rest turned around and ran.

The one hesitated, and was about to run, but Wang Si had already rushed to the front.

Always to save his life, Wang Si is to repay Li Guo desperately. Although Wang Si is young, his morale is high.

Seeing that the situation is not good, he will turn the horse's head and run.

Wang Si was in a hurry, brandished a knife and slashed at the back of the head, and actually cut out the brain.

The total upside-down onion was poured down, and the rest of the Ming army was originally infantry, and when they saw this scene, they scattered and fled.

Wang Si didn't expect the victory to come so easily, and when he killed the Ming army and saw the things on the cart, he laughed out loud!
