"Brethren in the city! Are you still living the hard life you used to live with? Open the gates and follow us. Here in our Chuangwang, it is guaranteed to be fragrant and spicy. Otherwise, the army will enter the city, and there will be no chickens and dogs left! ……”

Listening to his soldiers shouting from a distance, Gao Yingxiang squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the Ningling County in front of him for a while. It was found that this county town really could not be compared with the city on the nine sides, the city wall was short, and there was no river water in the moat in front of the city wall, only a small ditch covered with withered grass.

So Gao Yingxiang laughed, and couldn't help but say to his side: "The land of projectiles, the day and night can go down." ”

"King Chuang, don't be careless! It looks like those soldiers in the city still want to defend the city! Although Luo Rucai on the side was reminding, he also had a relaxed smile on his face.

After entering the hinterland of Henan, the city defense of those prefectures and cities was better, but the city defense of those counties was in vain. Often, the whole city surrendered as soon as the peasant rebels called the door.

Some of the local officials in those counties had already fled, while others hid in the county government like fools, as if they could use stealth techniques. When the city was destroyed, it dawned on the officials that their families either hanged themselves or set themselves on fire. This made the somewhat lustful Luo Rucai a little regretful, and he didn't get any official daughters and daughters to play.

So today, seeing that Ningling County was going to resist, Gao Yingxiang and Luo Rucai were a little strange. But it's strange that I'm a little excited in the future.,Just let your children play.,It's not good to have no blood!

"How? Do you attack or do I attack? Gao Yingxiang asked.

"Attack! I'm here in the field, and it's up to you to attack the city. Luo Rucai hesitated for a moment and then prevaricated.

With such a small city, Luo Rucai estimated that there was no problem for his troops to capture it. But everyone knows: whoever has the troops to break through the city first will have enough oil and water, and Luo Rucai still has to let Gao Yingxiang, the leader of the peasant rebel army, score three points.

"Alright then!" Gao Yingxiang's answer to Luo Rucai was not surprised. Then he ordered, "Shout another stick of incense!" If the people in the city do not surrender, then immediately attack the city. I'm going to sleep in Ningling County at night! ”

"No!" Gao Yingxiang's generals received the order in unison.

"Is your Yuzhi County a braincase? It's okay to go down with the militia. How did you take away all the ten three-eyed firearms and ammunition that defended the city? Didn't he know that the Shaanxi bandits were only two days away from Ningling County? Did he really think that he was Zhuge Liang and could sing the empty city plan in Ningling County? The most ridiculous thing is, why did he leave his concubines and children in the city? I really don't know if he's really stupid or fake! Qian Qi was full of anger.

"Yes! Be! Be! "At this time, how does Master Ding Bo follow Qian Qi's wishes. But in his heart, he couldn't help but slander: "If Lord County's head is flattened, then it must be that your Ru Ningjun has knocked him flat all these years." ”

Seeing that Master Ding has always been obedient, Qian Qi's anger can't go on. He then asked, "How are things going in the city?" ”

"Arrangements have been made for the strong men to plug the gap in the second wall. All the food and grass in the city are also being sent to the second wall. I guess the second wall will be completely built this evening! Master Ding hurriedly reported.

"It's not enough! The houses between the first and second walls were to be demolished, and the wooden beams and masonry that had been removed were sent to the two walls. Also, the second city wall is already very thin, and it may collapse if it is hit by a rushing car, so let the strong men strengthen the second city wall immediately after blocking the opening. Now it is also necessary to withdraw all those in the city who are not fighting behind the second wall. Then ask the craftsmen to investigate, and build another wall near the county office. Preparations are being made for the construction of the third wall. ”

"Good! Good! The official will arrange it immediately! Ding Zhubo hurriedly agreed.

When the Holy Spirit Society rebelled, when Wu Shigong was guarding the county seat of Ningling, he once asked the Qi County Order to arrange, and Foreman Jiang presided over the construction of a second city wall in the city.

But after a long time, Ningling County was calm under the protection of the Runing Army. In addition, there is an additional city wall in the county, and the traffic is really inconvenient, so it is now. The second wall was torn down where the roads inside the city had been blocked.

Fortunately, it was only built about two feet high. The simple city walls, which were only large enough to stand a few people side by side, and the total distance of the blocked roads was not long, so it was able to barely complete it in one day after mobilizing the whole city.

At this moment, a personal soldier came over and said, "My lord, the young leaders in the city have all been assembled. I'm just waiting for the adults to come and give a lecture. ”

Qian Qi came to more than 30 young leaders. Those leaders had all gone up to the city wall and seen the huge army of the peasant rebels, and they all felt that Ningling County was like a flat boat in the ocean that would sink at any time, so they all had a look of panic on their faces.

As soon as Qian Qi arrived, the tiger eyes looked around. The commotion of the leaders also quieted down.

Qian Qi said: "You have also heard the shouts from outside the city. I understand that people want to live longer, and no one wants to go to war. But you know all the life of a thief, and you also understand the truth of becoming a thief one day and being a thief for life. You all have a family in the city, are you willing to live that precarious life of bandits? ”

"Maybe you see hundreds of thousands of people outside the city scared. But back then, our Lord Wu took 200 soldiers to defend the siege of tens of thousands of Holy Spirit Society rebels, which proved that bandits are bandits, and they have no way to face the strong city. So there is nothing to fear from those Shaanxi bandits outside the city. ”

"Divide among you into twelve groups, three groups for each wall. When the city is not attacked, a group of people go to the city wall to guard, and the Shaanxi bandits attack the city on two groups, and three groups when it is really fierce. Take turns to rest, and those who rest can only be under the city walls and cannot leave. ”

"Now there are thousands of soldiers I brought into the city, and this Ningling County can defend it, so don't panic. But I, Qian Qi, also put the ugly words in front. Your family will arrange for it to be properly protected after the second wall. Don't worry! ”

"But as long as a group of people make a mistake, let the Shaanxi bandits attack the city. If any of those who surrender to the bandits and retreat back into the city, let the whole family go to meet the king of Yama. ”

"Yes! Checkmate! After listening to Qian Qi's words, the hearts of those young leaders also settled down a little.

Just after noon on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month of the seventh year of Chongzhen, Gao Yingxiang commanded his own camp to officially attack Ningling County. (To be continued......)
