Old Man Yan had learned Yin Yuan's lesson, and had ordered the children of the Yan family to protect him firmly, Yin Bai couldn't get any closer, picked up his bow and arrow, and shot at Yin Yuan's white-bearded head.

With a "whoosh", the old man Yan was completely defenseless to be attacked by his own people, and the children of the surrounding families were not as professional as the real soldiers, and were pierced by an arrow through the cheeks, Yin Bai was extremely powerful, and the sharp arrow penetrated from the left and out from the right.

Old Man Yan only felt a chill on his face, and then a sharp pain came, and he found that it was Yin Bai who shot an arrow, and he was furious.

"Hello ......"

The word "good" only made half a sound, and the blood on the cheeks gushed out, and the children of the Yan family around saw Yin Bai shooting arrows at Old Man Yan, and they were all furious, and besieged Yin Bai.

The rebels were in disarray, and Yin Bai and dozens of servants behind him were besieged.

"Childe, let's go."

"Don't drag me, I'm going to kill this old thing, and you pay back my father's life, old dog." Several domestic servants hurriedly pulled Yin Bai to leave, and Yin Bai jumped to his feet and shouted.

"Let's go, Childe." The loyal servant opened the way in front, and the servant behind forcibly pulled Yin Bai away.

Old Man Yan didn't know that he was dead, Yin Bai and some businessmen who didn't want to rebel took the opportunity to flee with Wei Yan's troops, and most of the other children who supported the new policy waited and watched, not stopping these people, but giving them a way.

Shen Tan, both civil and military, saw the rebel army led by Old Man Yan in chaos, commanded his men and horses to kill from the oblique stab, and pursued Wei Yan closely.

When Shen Tan brought soldiers and horses to cross the street. Suddenly, two big guys who don't know what they were pushed out of the side door.

The big guy has two wheels, like a wheelbarrow, and a box in the middle, on which is a row of serrated cuts, and the serrated mouth is supported by dense sharp arrows.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

I saw that the two big guys shot hundreds of feather arrows at once. Most of the guards in front of Shen Tan died, and they hurriedly reined in their horses, and their horses were shot with more than a dozen arrows. Raise hooves and hiss.

These two big guys are Huang Yueying's ballistas, and they have been improved by Ma Jun, Liu Zhang said that he would not produce giant ballistas, and even ten and seven crossbows could not be manufactured for the time being, because the funds were insufficient.

But Ma Jun and Zuo Bo are both "science madmen", how can they resist this temptation, with Huang Yueying's drawings, it is not feasible to design them.

Uncle Zuo didn't understand machinery, so he gave his family wealth and Liu Zhang's reward. All to Ma Jun. Ma Jun also took out his family wealth, and after nearly a year of experimental manufacturing, he worked together to make these two giant crossbows.

The cost of these two giant crossbows, the purchase of consumables, test firing, finished products, and especially the cost of failed experiments, almost exhausted the money of the two of them, although they were produced. Ma Jun also knew that he was powerless to maintain, so he originally put it at home to make a show.

didn't expect it to come in handy at this time, and when he decided to follow Zhou Budo to deal with the rebels, he pulled these two big guys out.

The people Ma Jun left behind to control the ballista were all the personal soldiers sent to him by Liu Zhang, and they were well-trained.

After the giant crossbow released a wave of arrows, the four crossbowmen hurriedly loaded the arrows, and Shen Tan was hit by an arrow in his arm, bringing a piece of skin and flesh away, and he was already furious, how could these people be loaded again, and immediately commanded the rebels to rush forward.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

The four guards next to him held a trap box and aimed at the rebels and pulled the bracket, and the seven-shot box crossbow was also jointly made by Ma Jun and Zuo Bo, which was extremely powerful, and shot the rebels who rushed over again.

At this time, the ballista was also loaded, and the two people pushed the cart and crashed into the rebels, and the rebels saw the rows of cold arrows above, and the six gods were frightened, and the rebels had no shield, even if the other party was only a few people, they were invincible in this narrow street.

On the two-zhang wide street, the rebel front army was defeated, dragging thousands of people behind to trample on each other, Shen Tan couldn't even scold a few defeated soldiers, and finally he was chilled at the row of arrows, and hurriedly abandoned his horse and fled with the defeated soldiers.

The two ballistas chased the rebels a few hundred paces, and only finally came to a stop when they reached an open area in front of them, and the road was full of rebel soldiers who had been trampled to death.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

Hundreds of arrows formed an arc and shot at the rebels again, and the slow soldier was nailed to the ground, and the crossbowman pulled a reed, opened a small door in the box in the middle of the ballista, and threw the fire fold in, and the ballista, which had been refueled, burst into flames.

Ma Jun and Zuo Bo's hard work for a year was burned, and more than a dozen crossbowmen turned around and ran.

"Chase, chase me."

The two ballistas let Wei Yan's army run away in vain, and Shen Tan was furious, vowing to kill the dozen crossbowmen and command the rebels who had dodged the crossbow arrows to turn around and pursue.

The rebels bypassed the ballista, just a few hundred people, at this moment, suddenly heard two loud noises, two ballista explosions, countless sharp pieces of iron flew out, inserted into the throat and face of the rebels, the rebels screamed in pain, rolling on the ground.

The boxes of these ballistas are all mechanisms for strengthening the bowstrings, and countless springs and iron pieces are mixed in them, Ma Jun fixed all the springs on several ropes, and the fire burned the ropes together, and the springs bounced open, and the iron pieces laid in them immediately bounced off.

The dozen or so soldiers were not in a hurry, and when they fled, the two box crossbows were loaded again, and when they turned around, there was a burst of fierce shooting, and the rebels who were in the lead were shot to the ground again, and more than a dozen soldiers escaped easily, and Shen Tan stood behind the fire of the ballista, his face was purple with anger.

Under the cover of crossbowmen, Wei Yan successfully broke through, and also brought out Yin Bai and others, and the group ran to Yushu Street, all exhausted and collapsed.

Zhou Budo had been waiting here for a long time, the people of Yushu Street had brought food out to reward the army, and Wei Yan had set up some sentry posts, leaning against a wall, silent.

Zhou Budo came over with a bowl of rice: "General Wei, eat something?" ”

Wei Yan shook his head, Zhou Budo picked up the chopsticks and ate them himself, and said while eating: "Isn't it just a losing battle, as for it?" Besides, you sent Zhang Ren into the city in this battle, and you also beheaded Yin Yuan, which is not considered a loss, who would have expected that Shen Tan would bring so many people.

Moreover, Shen Tan once occupied the mediocre, capable of civil and martial arts, and his ability to command the army was much stronger than those family leaders, if it weren't for him. The 30,000 rebels were completely defeated. ”

"Don't pick up nice words, if you lose, you lose." Wei Yan sighed and said: "The rebels, Shen Tan's army, and my army are all about the same in terms of combat strength, they are all a mess, and no one takes advantage of them." If Shen Tan's men were a group of elite soldiers, I might not be able to run back. ”

"Shen Tan." Wei Yan was silent for a while, and snorted lightly: "How can I, Wei Yan, be defeated in his hands." I'm going to regroup the army. ”

Wei Yan said and stood up.

"Wait." Zhou Budo looked at Wei Yan and said, "We don't have a chance anymore." ”

Wei Yan frowned and looked at Zhou Budo.

Zhou Budo quickly took two mouthfuls of rice, put down the bowl and stood up and said: "Don't be impulsive, a sheep leads a group of sheep, and it will always be a sheep, but a wolf leads a group of sheep, and the momentum will be completely different. The rebels must be rectified. Plus our whereabouts have been exposed, and there is no chance of a sneak attack. ”

Wei Yan thought for a while, nodded silently, he was just angry just now, he only thought about the current combat strength of the rebels, and didn't think about Shen Tan, indeed, if Shen Tan came to rectify the rebels, it would definitely become very tricky.

"You mean we're on the periphery of the rebels. Rivalry with the inner city? ”

Zhou Budo nodded.

"We'll be very passive then."

"There's no other way."

I have thought of all the ways I can think of, the rebels are 40,000 people, and the combined number of his army and the inner city is more than 10,000, in the face of the huge difference in strength, Zhou Budo really can't think of a way.

Moreover, Zhou Budo seems to be relaxed, but in fact it is for the soldiers to see, Zhou Budo is most worried that the rebels will not attack the inner city, but attack themselves, the inner city and the city wall, what do you have here? If they are driven out of the city, they shall not be called to the heavens and the earth.

At this time, Yin Bai came over and bowed to Zhou Budo and Wei Yan: "Sinner Yin Bai, see General Wei, Gongzi Zhou." ”

"Yin Bai, your father was killed by me, what are you still doing to vote for me?" Wei Yan snorted, disdain in his tone.

"Speak well." Zhou Budo said to Wei Yan, smiled, and turned to Yin Bai: "Yin Gongzi, Uncle Huang is promoting business, you are the son of the family who responds most positively, I know that you are following the rebels and being coerced by the family, but we are also at the end of the road now, and we will definitely die if we follow, so you better go yourself." ”

Zhou Budo picked up the rice bowl and continued to pick up the rice

"Gongzi Zhou." Yin Bai said loudly: "The two armies are fighting, there is no grudge, not to mention that although my father died under the sword of General Wei, but it was Yan Laogou who killed my father, I, Yin Bai, as Zhou Gongzi said, have never rebelled against the emperor's uncle and Xun Gongzi, but my father was confused for a while."

Even if I die, Yin Bai, I will follow Gongzi and General Wei and take revenge on Yan Laogou. ”

"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to take revenge and die yourself?"

"Old dog Yan, either I die or he dies." Yin Bai said hatefully. The other sons behind Yin Bai were all people who supported the New Deal, young and energetic, and ran out with Yin Bai, and at this time, they saw that the craftsmen and soldiers were embarrassed, and they regretted it a little, but it was too late.

…………

In the rebel camp, Old Man Yan is still the commander, and the direct command was given to Yin Yuan before, Yin Yuan died, and Shen Tan led the deputy marshal of the rebel army, responsible for commanding the entire rebel army.

Shen Tan did not attack the city, Zhang Ren led 5,000 people to guard the inner city, it is no longer a swarm of bees can be captured, Shen Tan became a deputy marshal, the first thing is to reorganize the army, no longer based on the family system, but divided by combat power, divided into three batches, a total of seven teams.

And Shen Yi and others, his cronies brought from Shangyong, were in charge of the most elite troops, equipped with the best equipment, and formed an army of 8,000 barely like an army.

However, Shen Tan did not attack the city with all his strength after dividing the army, but chose to attack Wei Yanbu on Yushu Street, and several rebel generals opposed it, and Shen Tan, who controlled the military power, did not hesitate to kill him.

The other generals felt that the first task was to take the inner city, and the overall situation would be determined if the inner city was taken.

Of course, Shen Tan knew that the inner city was the key, but at this time, the inner city and Wei Yan were at odds, and it was difficult to take it, so Wei Yan must be destroyed first, even if Wei Yan could not be defeated, those thousands of craftsmen and soldiers must be driven out of the city.

Shen Tan decided on his own three-step plan, the first step was to surround the inner city with 20,000 soldiers and horses, divided into four batches, one group to supervise the battle, and three groups took turns to attack the inner city all night, and he sat in the Chinese army, led by his younger brother Shen Yi to attack Wei Yanbu with 8,000 elite soldiers, and 12,000 palaces to respond.

The second step is to drive out or eliminate Wei Yanbu. And sent more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to guard the outer city, preventing other reinforcements from entering.

The third step is to transfer back his younger brother's elite soldiers and work together to attack the city in turns, Shen Tan does not believe that Zhang Ren's 5,000 miscellaneous soldiers can hold out for long, and they will definitely be able to take the inner city and settle Chengdu before the arrival of reinforcements from other regions.

"Liu Zhang, if you take away my superiority, I will take your entire Yizhou and take revenge." Shen Tan clenched his fists and said.

Under Shen Tan's rectification, the scattered rebel army has really changed greatly, although there is still no individual combat strength, at least they all know that there is a unified command, no longer a family group, and the battle is lazy.

Zhou Budo's worst fear happened, Shen Tan really did not directly attack the city with the whole army, and sent his younger brother Shen Yi to lead 8,000 elite soldiers and more than 10,000 followers to kill Yushu Street, the craftsman soldiers had already been defeated once, and their morale was frustrated, even if Wei Yan and Yin Bai fought desperately, they still did not stop it.

The 8,000 elite soldiers of the rebel army, all of whom were elite soldiers, wearing armor and unified spears, were quite strong in battle, and the craftsmen could not compete with the enemy and were defeated.

Seeing that he was about to reach the south gate, Zhou Budo shouted at Wei Yan: "General Wei, you can't go out of the city." ”

Wei Yan looked at Zhou Budo, and Zhou Budo hurriedly said: "If we go out of the city, we will escape, but in this way, we can't do anything to help the inner city, and more importantly, if Shen Tan guards the city, other reinforcements will no longer be able to enter, and we must stay in the city." ”

Wei Yan glanced at the rebels in the rear, and said to Zhou Budoubt: "Our morale has collapsed, and if we fight again, we can only annihilate the whole army." ”

"There is Fazheng Huang Yueying outside, we don't need us, we are only valuable if we stay in the city, now the inner city is fighting a bloody battle for help, if we stay for a moment longer, we will fight for the inner city for a moment more."

Now the battle against the city seems to be the last minute, but Zhou Budo has already thought of a way that is not a way, and it may be able to play a little role.

Thinking of Liu Xun, for this role, Zhou Budo did not hesitate to die.

Wei Yan looked at Zhou Budo, and finally chose to trust him, decided to turn around, and raised his long knife with a long knife: "The whole army will turn back and meet the enemy." ”

As soon as Wei Yan shouted, the craftsmen were all stunned, but how could the panic be stopped, only stunned for a moment, and immediately continued to escape, leaving less than 2,000 people, and most of them were personal soldiers who followed Ma Jun and Zuo Bo.

"Childe, let's go." A domestic servant shouted to Yin Bai.

"yes." A fat boy who usually gets along with Yin Bai said to Yin Bai: "Let's go, we can fight until this moment has been benevolent and righteous, and if we don't leave, we will be buried with them." ”

Yin Bai didn't move, clenched his knife, and said to the fat boy: "Brother Jin, you can leave by yourself, I don't share the sky with Yan Laogou." ”

Yin Bai glanced at the city gate and said resolutely: "I know that if I get out of this gate, I will never be able to take revenge, I can only watch Yan Laogou and the Yan family soar to the top, it is better to stay and accompany Zhou Gongzi and General Wei to give it a go." ”

Yin Bai had already put life and death aside, and said to the servants: "You all go, I, Yin Bai, will die here today." (To be continued.) )
