If you change to an ordinary horse bandit leader, you will probably be relieved when you get these. Because even if it is forcibly entered, Nanjiazhuang may not have more things, but will kill and injure many people in vain.

However, Chen Wu's pursuit is not just a horse bandit!

He shook his head and said in an unquestionable tone the request that made the old man desperate: "There is only one way, all of you in Nanjiazhuang will join the rebel army." Otherwise, my army will come in, and then you will not be able to do it. ”

"Think twice, general!"

Seeing that Chen Wu seemed to have made up his mind not to give them a way to live, the old man's face looked much more gray, and he tried to persuade him to change his mind: "There is only so much money and food that Nanjiazhuang can come up with. The general insisted on attacking, and he couldn't get anything more, and the earthen enclosure in my Nanjiazhuang was not so easy to break......"

He didn't finish his sentence.

Chen Wu waved impatiently to summon the rebel soldiers and dragged him down.

It's just an old man who is not afraid of death, and Chen Wu didn't embarrass him. What's more, it won't be long before the entire Nanjiazhuang will come over to accompany him.

As for a mere dirt fence!

Chen Wu looked at the pale face of the Nanjiazhuang people on the soil fence, and there was undisguised contempt in his eyes. If it weren't for the attitude of training troops, let Dian Yong, a general, lead the team, and Chen Wu personally commanded, he would have been able to break through this dirt fence that could only prevent homeless people and ordinary horse bandits in minutes. Even if it is a stronger earthen fort than this, he doesn't know how many he has participated in the destruction of "Empire".

At the sound of an order, the horse team assembled.

When the only two horsemen were killed and surrounded by the rebels, the people of Nanjiazhuang could not fly. At this time, Chen Wu can use the horse team to do more.

For example, break the door!

Soon, the army took out the thick rope that had been prepared before the camp in Changshan Town, tied a sturdy holster at one end, and put it on the horse's back. On the other side, a special rope buckle was played. Under Chen Wu's command, the riders of the eight horses, each with such a long lasso on their horses. Subsequently, under the cover of the infantry troops, these horse teams once again rushed to the main gate of Tuweizi.

Seeing this scene, the faces of the people of Nanjiazhuang, who quickly guessed Chen Wu's intentions, changed greatly.

"Quick, stop them!"

"Is the boiling water boiling? Let's splash it down later! ”

"A few more people, seal the gate with debris!"

However, it was already too late.

If these Nanjiazhuang people were prepared a few days in advance, it might be more difficult for Chen Wu to attack them. But the people of Nanjiazhuang were defenseless, and they couldn't come up with the means to stop it for a while. Soon, the rider of the horse team threw the lasso out, pulled it tight, and slammed it onto the top of the gate.

"Three, two, one, let's go!"

The riders shouted trumpets and began to pull out together with their whips.

The strength of a horse is not comparable to that of a man, let alone a full eight horsepower. Rushing forward with the momentum of running, the gate made of rough wood and rivets immediately creaked. Because the previous attack of the infantry army had cut down the two axes below, the main gate of the earthen enclosure was shaky, and after a few clicks, it was forcibly dragged off the earthen wall.

Seeing this scene, cheers immediately rang out from the side of the rebels.

"It's over, the door is broken."

"Fight with them!"

Seeing that the only barrier was broken so lightly by the rebels, the faces of the people in Nanjiazhuang showed despair. Some young people were shocked and angry, and immediately shouted to bring weapons and block the main entrance of Tuweizi, and fight to the death with these rebels.

However, without geographical advantages, such resistance is not strong.

In the previous attack, Chen Wu used the second brigade. This time, he sent a hundred men of the first brigade to kill through the broken gate. At the same time, some of the volunteer battalions and even the women's battalion observing from outside also received orders for them to fight together.

Some people chose to obey the order and rushed into Nanjiazhuang behind the first brigade, but some people hesitated and didn't want to do it.

In this regard, Chen Wu directly sent a team of supervisors.

There were ten people in all, all of whom were elected from among the displaced people of Ganding Province. These people had been treated coldly and coldly in Changshan Town before, and after getting Chen Wu's order, they would not be soft when they killed people. With these people staring gloomily behind, the hesitant rebels were forced to rush in.

There are 100 households in Nanjiazhuang, and there are only 200 people who are really young and strong. Those who dared to come out and resist desperately were not even half. I had already been injured before, but now I was besieged by so many rebels, even if I fought to the death to defend my home, I still couldn't stop the spears and bamboo spears stabbed from all directions. At the beginning, the rebels were still merciful when they broke up. But as people were injured one after another, the rebels also started to fight and began to kill people.

Screams rang out one after another.

In an instant, four people from Nanjiazhuang died, more than ten people were injured, and those who were killed were defeated and retreated.

At this time, several principals in Nanjiazhuang finally realized that Chen Wu would not give up until he reached his goal. Although he was extremely resentful in his heart, he could only shout loudly: "General, we Nanjiazhuang people are willing to join the righteous army!" ”

Under their orders, other Nanjiazhuang people who had been killed also shouted.

Chen Wu had the intention of letting his subordinates kill for a while, but since he had achieved his goal, he didn't want to force the people of Nanjiazhuang too much, so he mingled again. As the battle ended, one order after another was issued. All the people of Nanjiazhuang were all incorporated into the Righteous Army; The rest of the family property shall remain his/her own, but not a single grain of grain shall be kept and all shall be handed over.

This was an important means for Chen Wu's righteous army.

As long as the grain is in his hands, he is not afraid of these Nanjiazhuang people making trouble.

Previously, when the grain was confiscated in Changshan Town, because all the locals in Changshan Town were executed, and the rebel army was not formed, almost every family secretly withheld some grain. Although Chen Wu knew it, he could only turn a blind eye. But this time, after forcibly pulling the people of Nanjiazhuang into the rebel army, they were not so polite to them.

After packing their bags, each family must be searched by the rebels, dare to hide it privately, and behead it to show the public!

This is how the vanquished are treated!

Such a harsh order inevitably made the people of Nanjiazhuang dissatisfied and rioted for a while. It's a pity that the overall situation has been decided, and the only weapons they have have have been confiscated, and they can't set off any storms at all. Just three or four hours later, all the people of Nanjiazhuang were forced to pack up their salutes and join the ranks of the rebels.

And from this Zhuangzi, Chen Wu copied out more than 4,000 catties of grain!

You must know that there are only more than 100 households in Nanjiazhuang, and more than 600 people have died in total. In the same case, when the grain harvest is out and the grain storage is exhausted, Nanjiazhuang still has so many family backgrounds. Of course, there are two villages and towns in different situations, but it is also conceivable how much grain the people of Changshan Town secretly hid before.

"Burn down the house!"

After all the searches were completed and it was confirmed that all the people of Nanjiazhuang were here, Chen Wu ordered his men to do the same thing as before leaving Changshan Town.

Such locust-like methods have a devastating effect on Taiping County, and it is the most hated and even feared mode of rebellion by the center of the empire. Even after the rebellion is put down, it may take five or even ten years to recover. But for Chen Wu, this vicious method can cut off the back road of the rebel soldiers, forcing them to fight to the end with him.

As for whether these people will be resentful?

It's okay, the next time they fight, let them vent these grievances to the officers and soldiers. Moreover, as long as the food supply is controlled in normal times, even if these people have grievances, they do not have the strength and courage to make trouble.

"Please be gracious to the general!"

Seeing that the entire Zhuangzi was engulfed in flames, the people of Nanjiazhuang were in a commotion again. It's a pity that Chen Wu ignored them, and after some suppression, forced the army to pull out the camp. As a result, more than 600 Nanjiazhuang people, just like the Changshan people before them, could only watch as their houses were burned down, and then they were dragged away little by little in the army.

However, what Chen Wu didn't expect was that the smoke from the fire in Nanjiazhuang attracted people sent by the government to inquire about the situation of the warden team.

"Old man Zheng, look at the ...... over there"

The two poor people riding old horses were originally hurrying slowly, and by the way, they were chatting about the women in Yicheng Chunhong Courtyard. As a result, the sharp-eyed Jiang Ji saw the rising smoke, and couldn't help but be taken aback, and quickly touched the people around him.

The poor man named Old Man Zheng was actually just over forty years old, only seven years older than Jiang Ji. It's just that he looks older, so he was given this nickname. He was talking about the excitement, but Jiang Ji suddenly interrupted him, and he couldn't help but be a little annoyed. But after looking in the direction pointed by the other party, Old Man Zheng was stunned for a moment.
