Soon, the three platoon commanders were called together by Hu Hai.

When Hu Hai said what he thought in his heart, several platoon commanders didn't think about it, and their eyes were hot in agreement.

According to the information provided by the internal guard, the Zhang family, which is more than 40 miles away from Cangyunling, was first selected by everyone and became the first target of attack after the formation of the team......

The platoon leader sitting in front of Hu Hai spoke first......

"Company commander, this Zhang family is the largest local tyrant in a radius of 100 miles around Cangyunling...... The family not only has tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, but also has several shops in Yangzhou City! ”

"What's more, this Zhang family has a son who is an official in Nanjing City, and he is a member of the imperial court...... Not only the local county order, but even the prefect of Yangzhou Prefecture were polite to this Zhang family......"

"No matter what the Zhang family has done that violates the law and discipline, the county government and the prefect's yamen don't care about ......"

"In the past few years, not to mention anything else, there have been as many as 100 ordinary people who have died unjustly because of the Zhang family's violations of law and discipline......

"It is certain that this Zhang family is the biggest bully within a hundred miles of Cangyunling...... If we can destroy this Zhang family, we will definitely cause a great sensation in the hearts of all the people within a hundred miles of Cangyun Ridge......"

Not only that, but it also caused a great sensation in the county government and the prefect's yamen...... In the first battle, the reputation of my team was knocked out......"

As soon as he finished a few words, the second platoon commander was not far behind and said: "Company commander, fighting this Zhang family is definitely the best choice...... Not to mention anything else, the grain and silver that may be seized after the defeat of Zhang's family alone is enough for our squad to expand. Eat for years......"

"There are also those people whose families are ruined because of the Zhang family. Our squad helped them take revenge. As long as there are no accidents, they will take the initiative to join my team...... In this way, our squad can get a steady stream of soldiers to augment......"

At this time, the only three platoon commanders who did not speak were not far behind and said: "Also, the Zhang family has hundreds of people in the courtyard, which means that he has hundreds of people's weapons and equipment...... Although we don't like these equipment, but. It's still very good to equip recruits......"

Facing the three subordinates in front of him who were eager to try, Hu Hai's already determined facial expression became even more determined at this moment......

After slamming his clenched fist on the table in front of him, he affirmed loudly: "Okay, then let's take this Zhang family......"

In order to guard against bandits, the Zhang family, like many landlords in the north, did not set up their home in the town.

Instead, it cost tens of thousands of taels of silver to directly build an earthen fort covering an area of more than 100 acres in the fertile land less than five miles away from the town.

The entire earthen fort was surrounded by a brick-clad wall that was one battle high. From a distance, it looks as indestructible as a tortoise shell.

And that's not all. On the wall of this high battle, there are almost 100 people in the courtyard day and night, armed with spears and knives, carrying longbows and muskets, patrolling back and forth......

In order to make the first battle since the formation of the squad more sensational, Hu Hai did not choose to attack at a night that was more favorable to him.

Instead, in broad daylight, with less than 60 soldiers under his command, he slaughtered to Zhangjiatu Fort.

Therefore, when the detachment was still about a mile away from the earthen fort, a crisp bell rang in the earthen fort.

Subsequently, the heavy iron-clad gate of the earthen fort was closed. Hundreds of guards also poured onto the city wall amid the shouts and curses of their respective leaders, ready to fight.

Just when hundreds of nurses were ready to fight. Hu Hai and others also clearly reflected their field of vision......

To their disappointment, the so-called bandits did not even count a hundred......

Bandits with less than a hundred people came to attack the Zhang family, which was protected by the city wall and defended by hundreds of guards, wasn't it an egg hitting a stone and killing themselves......

This is the idea of all the nursing homes of the Zhang family after Hu Hai walked outside the Zhangjiatu Fort.

Just when the stern expressions on the faces of many nursing homes were slowly covered with contempt, the thoughts in the hearts of these nursing homes have changed from how to defend the Zhangjia Tubao to how to eliminate the bandits who want to attack the Zhang family outside the tubao, and use the bandits' heads to exchange rewards and silver in the hands of Old Man Zhang......

So, as soon as the fierce old man Zhang walked on the city wall, several leaders rushed to ask their masters for battle, asking to take the initiative to eliminate the bandits outside the fort in one fell swoop, so that the bandits in Cangyunling knew that the Zhang family was not something they could shake......

Old man Zhang, who was usually used to running rampant around, and didn't even pay attention to the county order and the prefect, saw that the bandits really didn't even have more than a hundred, and his face also showed a contemptuous expression......

Under the gaze of several pairs of eyes at the same time, he said with a fierce face: "If you don't kill them, they won't know how powerful my Zhang family is...... A group of uninformed bandits, today the old man will definitely let you taste the price of provoking my Zhang family......"

"Leader Wang, these bandits outside the earthen fort, the old man will hand them over to you...... The old man's request is very simple, these bandits want to cut off all the heads that are left...... As for the bandit leader, the old man is going to chop him up and feed him to the dogs......"

"Fight this battle, the old man will prepare a reward of five taels of silver for each of you, as for your king's leader, the old man has prepared a reward of fifty taels of silver for you, I hope you will not insult the reputation of my Zhang family......"

In the face of the heavy reward, the expression on the face of the king leader became even hotter.

Under the gaze of several pairs of envious and jealous eyes around him, he promised loudly: "Please rest assured, Master Zhang, I will definitely take my brothers and cut off the heads of these bandits, all of them......

After speaking, the confident leader of the king led his subordinates to a hundred courtyards and rushed towards the city wall......

Hu Hai, who was one hundred and fifty steps away from the earthen fort, was looking at the earthen fort motionlessly with a hint of the pre-battle strictness, thinking of a way to not only lay down the earthen fort, but also reduce casualties......

At this moment, an exclamation suddenly sounded around him!

"Company commander, the gate of the earthen fort is here! Zhang's Nursing Home has come out......"

"Are they crazy enough to leave the earthen fort and kill it...... Isn't that a slam into our gun......"

Listening to the exclamations that kept ringing in his ears, he saw that the gate of the earth fort was screaming and rushing towards him, and he was extremely arrogant. Company Commander Hu Hai's face immediately showed an expression of sudden realization.

Then, he said with a sneer: "It's not that these nurses are crazy, it's that they are too arrogant, they underestimate us, and want to eliminate us here......."

"But that's what I want...... Today, let's give these nurses a good taste of what is a real battle and what is a real army......"

"Brothers, line up immediately, the musketeers are in front, the bombardiers are behind, I want to kill all these courtyards out of the city without one left, so that the remaining courtyards in the earthen fort will ......be terrified when they look at us" (to be continued......
