Chapter 546: The Eve of the Decisive Battle (I)
Halfway through Ding Shun's words, Qin Kanquan understood, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.
"In other words, they ambushed Tang Zihe, and this black cauldron is carried by me? Inexplicably memorized it for more than half a year, and I didn't know it? ”
Ding Shun said with a smile: "That's what it means." ”
"Tang Zihe also hated me for more than half a year because of this, when she was in Tianjin Yamen, she was disheartened and said that she would not rebel, but later changed her mind, this incident was about to stimulate her a lot, and when I first arrived in Bazhou, I had no head or brains to ask her out of the city to recruit her......"
Ding Shun continued to laugh: "Yes, now that I think about it, I feel panicked, she didn't stab you directly with a knife when she met Hou Ye, which means that she has true love for you......"
Qin Kan clenched his fists angrily, gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Liu Jin, the dead eunuch, was cut by a thousand knives and inexplicably put me together, this revenge ......"
Ding Shun cautiously reminded: "Master Hou, this revenge has been avenged in advance, he was cut by a thousand knives, but he can't get rid of Master Hou." ”
Qin Kan thought about it, and finally sighed gloomily: "You're right, besides, you can't avenge this revenge, Liu Jin has no place to bury when he dies, and even the meat is bought home by the people of Beijing one by one, and there is no place to take revenge." ”
"Hou Ye, there is obviously a misunderstanding between you and Tang Zihe, this misunderstanding is terrible, Hou Ye should find a way to solve it, after solving this misunderstanding, there may be hope that she will return to the imperial court......"
Qin Kan shook his head: "You underestimated Tang Zihe, and also underestimated the current situation of the imperial court and the Bazhou anti-army, there is no turning back when you open the bow, no matter what she thinks in her heart, things have come to this point." There's no turning back for her. ”
"In other words, Hou Ye and her are already dying?"
Qin Kan sighed: "Yes." Never die. ”

The demolition of houses began in Bazhou City, and the demolition of houses was a spontaneous action of the people. Because the situation of defending the city is becoming more and more serious, and there are fewer and fewer equipment in the city that can be used to defend the city, the beams and adobe bricks of the houses have become the best source of supplementary equipment.
Enduring the grief and pain, the people hardened their hearts and knocked down their houses, the once poor but warm little home, now turned into a cloud of dust and smoke in the sound of the trumpet, the old people shook their lips and secretly wiped their tears, and the children cried without scruples, but the houses were still being knocked down one by one. The thick beams were picked out of the pile of bricks, sawn into sections, and sent to the city as huge logs.
More than 100 years ago, the simple and kind people were sent to the Ming court army camp with boiled eggs and tea in both hands, and they sincerely hoped that they would drive away the Tartars and restore the Han people, and the people would no longer be enslaved. As a result, Bazhou became the front station for the Ming court army under Taizu to directly attack Beijing, the capital of the Yuan Dynasty.
More than 100 years later, it is still this group of simple and kind people, who have no hesitation to pin their enthusiasm and hope on a group of rebels, as they did a hundred years ago. Counting on the rebels to overthrow the current imperial court and change to a new sky.
Same people, same reasons. Or even the same mood.
The water also carries the boat, and the water also overturns the boat.

Ge Lao Wu drank a lot of wine. He sat on the roof of the side hall of the Marshal's Mansion, watching the light of the Ming court army in the distance in a daze. Like a dormant giant beast lying quietly in the night, the firelight is like the eyes of a giant beast, greedily looking at Bazhou City, as if it can jump up at any time to tear Bazhou to pieces.
It's been the fifth day of defending the city, and the feeling is completely different from when resisting Xu Tai, all the rebels in the city feel heavy in their hearts, the Ming court has changed the main general, giving everyone an indescribable majesty, in the face of this majesty, even resistance seems to have to muster great courage, Ge Lao Wu obviously feels that the morale of the rebels is not as good as day by day.
So Ge Lao Wu was drunk.
He didn't know how many more times he would have the chance to drink like tonight for the rest of his life.
The liquor entered his throat, cutting his esophagus like a knife, and burning in his chest like a raging fire, only at this time would Ge Lao Wu feel that his blood was not cold, and he was still a living person.
The empty wine jar was full of three or three under his feet, and Ge Lao Wu knew that he was not drunk, he was so sober that he could still shoot a copper coin a hundred steps away with an arrow, but his head was a little dizzy, and he felt very strange.
Stretching his legs tiredly, an empty wine jar was accidentally kicked off the roof by him and landed in the courtyard outside the front hall of the Marshal's Mansion, and a crisp cracking sound came from the middle of the night, causing countless guards guarding Tang Zihe in the mansion to come out and check vigilantly, Ge Lao Wu could even feel that five sharp arrows were wound and aimed at his head.
"Look...... What to see! Don't know Lao Tzu anymore? Get out of here! Ge Lao Wu scolded with drunken eyes.
Tang Zihe, who was wearing armor, walked out of the front hall and looked up at Ge Lao Wu on the roof.
"Ge Lao Wu, the big war is coming, alcohol is forbidden in the army, do you take this commander's military order as the wind in your ears?" Tang Zihe stared at him coldly.
Ge Lao Wu grinned, and the drunk looked very silly when he laughed.
"Yes...... Yes, Marshal, Admiral...... If you make a mistake, you promise not to do it again next time. ”
Tang Zihe's eyes became more and more cold: "I hate to see drunks, go and get twenty military sticks by yourself, drink it next time, and behead it before the army!" ”
Ge Lao Wu stood up from the roof, stumbling slightly, but a harrier rolled over and flew into the courtyard from the roof.
Tang Zihe glanced at him coldly, turned around and entered the front hall.
"Marshal,...... Stay. Ge Lao Wu stopped her, and suddenly burped.
The strong smell of wine made Tang Zihe frown and take two steps back.
"Marshal, no, Miss Tang, how long can we hold this Bazhou City?"
"What do you want to say?"
Ge Lao Wu stared at her with burning eyes, and there was a little more affection in his eyes that he couldn't usually see.
This kind of fiery gaze frightened Tang Zihe.
"Miss Tang, I, Ge Lao Wu, have been following you for five years, and in the past five years, I, I have ......"
Tang Zihe suddenly interrupted him sharply: "Ge Lao Wu, the enemy is now, it's not the time for you and me to talk about the old relationship, these words will be left for later!" ”
"Tang Zihe, what do I Ge Lao Wu think about you, are you still pretending to be confused? Now that the city is under siege, your and my lives are in danger, I say a few words that I want to say, do you dare not listen to it or don't disdain to listen to it at all? Ge Lao Wu asked with his red drunken eyes.
Tang Zihe took a deep breath, looked at Ge Lao Wu, and said quietly: "I don't want to listen to this, Ge Lao Wu, you are allowed to be presumptuous today, but it is also the last time, next time you will be drunk and crazy, and the military law will not forgive!" ”
Ge Lao Wu trembled, and his heart instantly sank to the bottom.
He couldn't see any emotion in her eyes, only a cold and ruthless, or rather, her heart had been completely surrendered to someone else, an enemy who wanted to break through Bazhou City and cut off all the robes and brothers.
It's ridiculous, what are you all insisting on? Dust cannot return to dust, and earth cannot return to earth.
Ge Lao Wu's heart seemed to be blown by the cold wind of ten thousand years, and he was instantly frozen and silent.
Seeing Tang Zihe ruthlessly turn around and leave, Ge Lao Wu bit his lower lip and bled out, suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed miserably, turned around and left the Marshal's Mansion.
…………
…………
A small group of rebels assembled under the city gate, the small team was all cavalry, the horses were in the ranks, the hooves of the horses were wrapped in thick cotton cloth, and the horses were uneasily digging their hooves under the city gates.
Ge Lao Wu staggered to a stop in front of the team, and asked in a vicious voice with red eyes, "What are you doing?" ”
The general of the squad smelled the pungent smell of wine, and knew that the most powerful general under the marshal had drunk too much, and couldn't help but say cautiously: "Back to General Ge's words, the last general and others were ordered to attack and harass the Ming court camp, and then withdrew to the ...... after wandering around the edge of the camp and harassing ."
Ge Lao Wu was uncontrollable in anger, and snorted heavily: "Attack? Walk? Count me in. ”
"Huh? General Ge, this is not in accordance with the rules......"
"Talk to Lao Tzu about the rules, are you fucking looking for death?" Ge Lao Wu lifted the young general's feet off the ground with one hand.
"Yes, the general will be angry, and the general will obey his orders."
*******************************************************************
The city gate opened silently, and Ge Lao Wu and a group of rebels rode into the endless darkness of the night.
The Ming court camp was quiet, with a hint of weirdness in the silence.
After Ge Lao Wu left the city, he woke up for seven minutes, facing the cold wind, Ge Lao Wu took a deep breath, silently drew his knife out of the sheath, and the tip of the knife trembled and pointed to the court camp.
"Rush!"
With their legs lightly clamped between the horse's belly, a cavalry squad of dozens of people rushed towards the large battalion.
The so-called "raid" only needs to charge once along the edge of the camp and kill the patrolling enemy troops or sentry posts roaming along the edge; the number of enemies killed is not the goal, but the purpose is to create psychological pressure on the enemy army.
Ge Lao Wu led the team to approach the Ming court camp, but found that the edge of the camp was quiet, and the patrol sergeants who were often seen were not seen tonight, and only the shadows of the trees could be heard swaying by the cold wind in the dark night.
"Something is wrong!" Ge Lao Wujiu had completely woken up, and his eyelids twitched a few times.
The young general who led the team also noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "General Ge, I'm afraid that we have been attacking and disturbing frequently for days, so that the Ming army has a countermeasure, and the Ming army has set up an ambush tonight, let's withdraw." ”
Ge Lao Wu nodded, turned his head to look at the handsome flag flying high in the Chinese military tent, gritted his teeth, and turned his horse's head back to the city unwillingly.
When dozens of people moved in unison and prepared to return to the city, they suddenly heard a cannon sound in the camp, and then countless torches were lit ten zhang away around them, and a cavalry of hundreds of people compressed Ge Lao Wu and the others in a square circle.
A brave warrior galloped to the edge of the encirclement, holding a long iron spear in his hand, raising his gun and shouting: "I am the imperial court's Fuqiang Bo Mao Rui, a bold thief, and you have fallen into the encirclement of my king's division, and you will be captured if you don't get off your horse quickly!" ”
