The pirates don't wear armor, they think it's in the way.

Chen Huwei knew that this time it was not a joke, the Liu Liangzuo army they attacked was once an important town in Jiangbei, and it was not a water war they were good at.

More than 2,000 people walked lightly, and several hundred of them were Shuikou recruited by Chen Huwei in Jiangbei, and the sound of rustling footsteps sounded in the deep grass.

The barracks in Jiangbei are sandwiched between Jiangyin City and the Yangtze River, and the barracks are not large, only 3,000 people are stationed, because there are enemies on both sides, so the vigilance is very high. In the dark night, three or four miles away from the barracks, Chen Huwei heard someone shouting in front of him: "What person! ”

This is followed by "Flutter, flutter!" "A few sounds, that's the sound of the commando team's crossbow bolts entering their bodies.

There were twelve soldiers on patrol, and the pirates couldn't kill all of them in an instant, and Chen Huwei heard a few shouts in his ears: "Someone is sneaking up." ”

"How!" Chen Huwei was very annoyed, he raised his sword and ordered: "Assault!" ”

The pirates swarmed towards the torch-lit North Camp. At this hour, most of the soldiers had not rested.

A fire was lit on Jingjiang Island, and the sky-high fire attracted the attention of the defenders at the head of Jiangyin City. After a while, the torches in the direction of the sandbank soared into the sky, and Wang Zhiren left 1,000 soldiers to guard the warship, and led 10,000 soldiers and horses to kill Jiangyin City.

Tonight, only 5,000 defenders were left on Chongming Island.

Zhang Mingzhen commanded 5,000 soldiers to follow behind the pirates, which was his most trustworthy army.

This big battle moved too suddenly, and before that, the Ming army on Chongming Island had never made any movement in the territory of Changzhou Prefecture. Liu Liangzuo even secretly laughed at Li Chengdong, how could he be defeated by the Ming army in Suzhou Creek, is there any more powerful soldiers and horses in the Ming Dynasty than the four towns in Jiangbei?

The sound of the police gong "clanged", and the scout shouted bitterly: "Enemy attack!" ”

Liu Liangzuo ran out of the big tent in a panic, he first saw the northeast direction of the fire, less than ten miles away from the camp, and the defenders arranged in Yangshe Town were ringing all day.

He exclaimed, "Not good! ”

The herald came in a panic to announce: "There is a sneak attack by water outside the north gate!" ”

Liu Liangzuo walked up to the watchtower and saw random shouts coming from the dark north camp, and there was a faint sound of weapons colliding. Suddenly, there was a loud thunderous bang, and he saw a fireball dragging a shining light to land in the camp of the northern city and explode.

He looked at it carefully for a moment, stabilized the panic in his heart, and immediately ordered: "The soldiers and horses of the eastern camp immediately assisted Yangshe Town to block the Ming army, the southern battalion paid close attention to the movements in the city, and the western battalion had 3,000 people to rescue the northern battalion." ”

The Ming army is coming in a huge way tonight, and it is estimated that there are at least 10,000 people from the sound of torches and cannons lit from the side of Yangshe Town.

If there were only reinforcements, he would not be so nervous, the key is that he was backed by a powder bag, and the defenders of Jiangyin City could be killed at any time. In the past two months, Jiangyin City has played a prestige like Hangzhou City, Liu Liangzuo has lost more than 4,000 soldiers under this city, because there are Qing generals to supervise the battle, only to endure and continue to attack the city, the army has long lost its sharpness.

In Liu Liangzuo's view, the water on Jingjiang Island was not to worry, he saw the fire in the northeast, remembered Li Chengdong's defeat, and his heart was like pressing a stone. Although he was not convinced, he knew very well in his heart that the soldiers and horses left by Gao Jie were the most powerful in the four towns of Jiangbei.

"There are 3,000 people in the north camp, plus 3,000 people in the west camp, 6,000 people are enough to deal with the water cowards!" Liu Liangzuo secretly estimated to himself. After repelling the Shui Kou, the two soldiers and horses went to support the northeast direction, and there were already 12,000 people from Dongying to support Yangshe Town, he was still a little uneasy, and he had to leave 5,000 reserves on hand to monitor the rebels in the city.

The pirates were the first to engage the Qing captives.

Chen Huwei saw that the sneak attack on the camp could not succeed, and ordered a strong attack.

With wooden shields in one hand and axes in the other, the pirates rushed to the fence of the northern camp.

Zhang Mingzhen urged the soldiers to run to follow, and the movements of the pirates hid their tracks, and 5,000 people hid on the hillside of the road west of Jiangyin City to the city gate.

The pirates were very cunning, not rushing forward in one go, but a small group of commandos rushing towards the Beiying camp little by little. Someone erected five turtledoves dismantled from the warship outside the camp 100 paces, the guns were more than half a zhang long, and each time they opened, the fire was accompanied by a loud noise in the dark, like a small cannon. This weapon looks scary, but there are too few of them, and most of the time they are used to scare people in the dark.

Chen Huwei took a turn outside Beiying, and his heart was a little hairy. He fought bravely, it was a battle that he had estimated in his heart that he had a chance of winning, even if he was in danger, it was still a danger on the surface. The camp in front of him, if it is really stormed, these cronies under his command are afraid that they will suffer heavy casualties.

A quarter of an hour passed, and although the fight outside the north gate was lively, it was actually thunder and rain. The pirates never broke into the barracks, and the defenders panicked for a while, but kept their composure.

In the darkness, Zhang Mingzhen's eyes were fixed on the torches lit from the Ximen Barracks, and he did not pin his hopes on Chen Huwei.

Jiangyin City Head.

Yan Yingyuan and Chen Mingyu were called to the city by the panicked soldiers, turned from the east gate to the north gate, and looked at the noise around them, and couldn't make up their minds for a while.

The battle in the northeast is extremely fierce, there are no stars tonight, the torches that cover the field are like stars in the sky, and there is a loud sound in the ears that only the artillery can come out.

Chen Mingyu looked excited and asked, "Is it King Lu's reinforcements?" Although it was an inquiry, his tone was already confirmed.

Yan Yingyuan's face was gloomy, he looked at it for a while, and said, "Listen to the posture, it's not the righteous army, the righteous army doesn't have so many firearms." But with such good kung fu, the firelight and the sound of the gun failed to move forward, and it was likely to be blocked by Liu Liangzuo. ”

The two looked at the east gate for a while, then turned to the north gate.

The rebels in the city quickly gathered and waited under the four gates.

The barracks at the north gate are very close to the city gate, and the battle under the city is clear at a glance.

Chen Mingyu couldn't hold back and asked, "Do you want to go out of the city to answer?" ”

Yan Yingyuan was silent for a long time, shook his head and said, "The thunder is loud, the rain is small, and the reinforcements on both sides are blocked. It's useless for you and me to go out of town! He saw that Chen Mingyu was a little disappointed, and squeezed out a smile and said: "Duoduo led an army of more than 100,000 to besiege Hangzhou, how many soldiers and horses does King Lu have to support Jiangyin." If there was no Hangzhou, Jiangyin City would not only face Liu Liangzuo, so I was very content. King Lu can still think of aiding Jiangyin, and we didn't erect this righteous flag in vain. ”

The two stood at the head of the city, speechless.

"Bang-bang-bang!"

Four or five miles away, there was a neat bang, which made the two of them turn their heads quickly.

On the hillside of the path from the west city to the north city, I don't know how many people and horses came out in the dark. The sound of a bird's gun resounded in the back of the reinforcements running with torches. It was very dark, and only at the moment when the fire flickered at the mouth of the gun, Yan Yingyuan saw the row of sharp weapons that shot lead. The sneak attackers blocked the way for reinforcements to retreat to the western camp.

Three thousand reinforcements formed a long snake queue and were marching rapidly, the front battalion had not yet engaged the pirates, and the soldiers in the rear were not at all guarded.

Zhang Mingzhen carried a machete and commanded the soldiers to press the dazed Qinglu.

Torches were scattered everywhere, except for the fire guns that cut off the retreat, the Ming troops who rushed down from the top of the mountain all used long knives and sharp blades to chase down the fleeing reinforcements.

After only looking at it for a moment, Yan Yingyuan's eyes turned red, and he shouted: "Kill out, kill out!" ”

The opportunity was fleeting, and he understood the intention of the Ming army almost instantly, the fanfare on the side of Yangshe Town in the northeast was just a virtual army, and it was a fatal knife outside the north gate.

He strode down the city, and Chen Mingyu behind him couldn't keep up with him.

Yan Yingyuan turned back suddenly, stopped Chen Mingyu, and said, "Don't go, in order to prevent the Qing captives from attacking the city, you stay in the city and be on guard!" ”

Chen Mingyu stopped, eased his mind, and nodded in agreement: "You have to be careful!" ”

The north gate of Jiangyin was opened, the suspension bridge was lowered, and nearly 10,000 volunteers rushed to the Qingyu North Camp in an orderly manner. Yan Yingyuan walked in the middle, commanding all the soldiers and horses. Wang Gong, a martial artist, took the lead, holding a shield on his chest, and led the selected vanguard to the gate of the camp.

The rebels used pot lids and bamboo baskets to block the archers on the arrow tower in front of them, although there were many people, but the posture was not chaotic. When he approached the arrow tower, the burly man who was hiding behind him carried the axe and rushed up, and the black axe was raised above his head and slashed at the wooden fence.

The axes in a circle rose one after another, and a few axes went down, and the arrow tower was crumbling.

The darkness is the best shelter, and all frightened soldiers flee to the unknowable. Hiding there, hiding in the jungle, they can't see others, and others can't see them.

Zhang Mingzhen only killed for a while, and the Qing captives who were ambushed scattered and fled, no one told them to surrender, and they didn't think about surrendering, after all, the army was nearby.

The camp at the north gate was surrounded on three sides, and the defenders were terrified.

Chen Huwei saw this movement, and finally ordered: "Kill in!" The pirates were no longer hidden, and the crossbowmen rushed towards the gate.

When Zhang Mingzhen led the army to disperse the reinforcements and rushed to the north camp, the defenders completely collapsed, opened the east gate that had been quiet, and fled to the direction of the Chinese army like a driven pig, and met Liu Liangzuo who rushed to help.

In the darkness outside the northern city of Jiangyin, scattered torches fluttered everywhere, and the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard but no human figure could be seen, and occasionally a cry of fear broke out.

Liu Liangzuo collected the remnants of the army, and he didn't know how to advance or retreat.

The most important thing is to maintain strength! A thought prevailed in his mind without hesitation.

There are more than 20,000 Ming troops who are attacking in a sneak attack, plus the rebels in the city, it is not so easy to deal with. He decided to wait for the dawn to make a decision, in such a dark light, the enemy is in the dark, he is in the light, no matter how he fights, he will suffer.

"Retreat to Yangshe Town! Send someone to Li Chengdong for help immediately! ”

Qinglu retreated in the darkness, and the sound on the side of Yang She Town was slowly getting quieter.

Zhang Mingzhen, Yan Yingyuan and Chen Huwei met in Beiying.

Zhang Mingzhen stepped forward and arched his hand: "I am Zhang Mingzhen, the general soldier of Chongming of Lu Jianguo, and I was ordered by General Pingyu to rescue Jiangyin." ”

Yan Yingyuan was puzzled and asked, "General Pingyu?" "Xuan Ji understood," General Zhai? ”

The name has spread throughout Jiangnan along with the anti-shaving edict. The people of Pingtou may not know that there is a king of Lu in eastern Zhejiang, but very few people in Jiangnan do not know that there is Zhai Zhe in eastern Zhejiang.

On the banks of the Yangtze River, more than 20 large sea ships docked, and the people were struggling to carry down all kinds of supplies.
