153 Burned

Although Taojiapu is a town, the population has caught up with a county, there are many people who do business, there are city walls, there are only two city gates, the east gate and the west gate, and the remnants of the army come from the east.

After getting the news, the county lieutenant hurriedly ran to the east gate of the city, asked people to move the wooden ladder, and now he himself stands on it to look. I saw a group of people in the distance.

The Taojiapu city wall was built with donations from the people, and it was not possible to resist the enemy at all, even if it was a remnant army of a few hundred people.

The remnants of the army were killed out of thousands of troops, how can ordinary people compare, let the defeated and murderous rebels come in, and it is possible to slaughter the city.

Therefore, the county lieutenant did not dare to open the city gate to let the people outside enter the city, which would see the momentum of so many people, and he was also full of guts, it was a big deal to fight, and he could not be slaughtered.

Open the city gate to let the people in, the officials on both sides quickly dragged away the people who were trampled on and out of breath, all the officials followed behind the county lieutenant, and when the people rushed in and there was a gap, she waved her hand and shouted: "Brothers, give it to me!" ”

I can finally shout this sentence.

Tao Zhexiao next to him shouted: "Brothers, rush!" ”

The sound of rushing echoed through the sky.

There were already remnants of the army rushing over, Fu Xishi brandished a nunchuck and hit it, and a person with a kitchen knife followed behind her, and the moment she saw the remnants of the army being stunned by the nunchucks, she slashed at the head.

After a while, suddenly a remnant army not far away was on fire, screaming and running around.

Fu Xi stopped and retreated, and the people behind her all retreated, and the remnants of the army were also stunned, and they all retreated, watching the burning man roll on the ground.

I heard a sharp voice in the direction of the city tower: "All enter the city, the eldest sister will lead people into the city!" ”

Fu Xishi turned around and looked up, and saw Fu Yuanhe, the younger brother of the monk who was still a monk on the city wall, with his hands on his lips and shouting loudly as a loudspeaker: "Enter the city, enter the city!" ”

Everyone ran towards the city gate, and the remnants of the army reacted at this time, and chased after them, and another person was on fire, which frightened the rebels and retreated.

Fu Yuanhe on the city tower laughed and jumped high.

"Burn you! Burn you guys! ”

When everyone else ran in, the gates were quickly shut. Fu Xishi ran up to the city tower quickly, and saw a big man pulling a bow and arrow, and Fu Yuanhai was quickly carrying something with a small piece of fabric.

Fu Yuanhe ran over when he saw Fu Xishi and said, "Sister, let these people go and carry oil, any oil is fine, I don't have many things, and I can't last long." ”

Fu Xi rushed down the tower again, shouting as he ran: "Go find oil, oil that can catch fire." ”

Everyone ran, and before they had time to run home, they rushed to the nearest house and shouted, "Get oil and go to the east gate." ”

Before Fu Yuanhe asked the two officials to go to the people who notified them to carry oil drums to the east gate, Tao Zhewei asked the Tao family to line up at intervals on the steps of the city tower, and someone brought oil to pass it on.

The Tao Guilan sisters on the city tower helped Fu Yuanhai tie the cloth bag, and Fu Yuanhe dipped it in the oil drum with a small square of cloth, and tied it to the end of the arrow with his hands.

A few more people stepped forward and said, "I can shoot arrows." ”

The lieutenant handed them the bows and arrows, and several of them took the arrows that had been stained with oil, and the arrows were shot at the remnants of the army, some of them were hit, but they did not burn as quickly as before.

Fu Xishi immediately understood that Fu Yuanhe was tied to gunpowder before.

Fu Yuanhe looked down and said regretfully: "No, but I don't have much powder." ”

Seeing the remnants of the army walking forward, Fu Yuanhe turned his head and said, "Shoot another arrow with medicinal powder." ”

The first to shoot another arrow was fired, and as at the beginning, the man who was shot was covered in fire and spun around, and the screams frightened the remnants away.

Fu said to the county lieutenant: "Persuade to surrender, quickly persuade to surrender." ”

The county lieutenant said, "What? ”

Tao Zhewei understood, he used his hand as a horn, and said loudly: "Listen to the people below, you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your relatives at home, the rebels of the previous dynasty will not win the court, and you will not end well with the rebels, so it is better to abandon the darkness and turn to the light." ”

Fu Xishi lay on the city wall and showed his head, shouting: "I don't want to be burned to death by us, I don't want to be killed, you just run, it's too stupid to give your life to the rebels, run away...... Knowing the times is Junjie, he ran away to give birth to a son in the future, and if he doesn't run, he won't die......"

She came to this voice in a tense moment, and the words she said made people laugh.

Fu Yuanhe was short, and he couldn't see the people below when he was standing, so he jumped up and shouted: "Run smart, your mother is waiting for you at home...... I'm going to make something for you...... Don't be a rebel and traitor......"

jumped and shouted, Tao Zhexiao ran up and poured down the oil drum, shouting: "If you don't run, you will be burned......"

A rocket with powder of medicine was shot at the oil on the ground, and the fire ignited, and several people on the castle tower poured oil down together, and the fire grew bigger and bigger as the oil went.

The rebels were able to run behind with a shout, and some of them were running in all directions.

Fu used to say to the county lieutenant: "What should they do if they go elsewhere to cause trouble to the people?" ”

The county lieutenant said: "I have sent someone to inform the nearest guard station, it is estimated that it is almost there." This was a small group of defeated troops, and the rest were chased north by the court. ”

Fu Xi was relieved, otherwise they would have beaten the rebels away, and it would have been bad to go elsewhere to harm the people.

In the distance, there was the sound of horses' hooves, and a large group of horses galloped and kicked up dust like billowing smoke.

The people on the city wall were motionless, not knowing whether they were friends or foes, and when they saw a banner, the county lieutenant raised his hand and shouted: "The imperial court has sent someone!" ”

Everyone cheered, and the rebels outside the city fled in all directions.

Dozens of cavalry went to chase the rebels, and a cavalryman came to the city and shouted: "Xiao Dahe, the head of the hundred households of Changchuan Wei, led the guards to quell the rebellion." ”

After saying that, he shot an arrow at the city wall and the castle tower.

The arrow fell on the city wall, the official picked it up and handed it to the county lieutenant, the end of the arrow helped a note, opened it, the county lieutenant shouted to open the city gate, and quickly ran down.

When they ran down, the city gate opened, Xiao Baihu entered the city and dismounted, and the county lieutenant respectfully greeted him.

Xiao Baihu saw the unimaginable miserable situation in the city, and a group of people looked like ordinary people, and the first few were holding two sticks, surprised.

"I didn't expect the people of Taojiapu to resist the enemy bravely, not bad, the county lieutenant has made meritorious contributions to the enemy, and I will report to the imperial court."

The county lieutenant bowed down and looked excited, "It's all the Taojiapu who are dedicated to resisting the enemy and guarding the city gate, and all the strong people in our Taojiapu are all in battle, which is the credit of the people." ”

Xiao Baihu looked at Fu Xishi and the three little girls next to her, as well as a few half-sized children, and joked: "They are also strong? ”

When the county lieutenant didn't know Fu Xi, he didn't know where they came from, and he had the impression that there was no woman in the Tao family who knew martial arts. I don't know how to introduce it.

Tao Zhexiao took a step forward and said: "I am the son of Tao Fuyun of Taojiapu, this is my cousin-in-law, who came from Shihe Town a while ago. Except for children under the age of five and those over forty years old, all the rest of my family came. ”

The bean dregs didn't know where the courage came from, and he stepped forward and said: "I am his cousin Dou Zhang, a native of Shihe Town, my son just knows how to walk and can't come, I came with my daughter-in-law." ”

After speaking, he stood next to Fu Xishi, and Fu Xishi saw him holding two kitchen knives in his hands, could it be that it was bean dregs that would cut people behind her?

One look at him and see that there was blood on his body.

Xiao Baihu said: "Okay! We have such a people, and we will surely prosper! ”

At this time, the county lieutenant arched his hand to the people and said: "I, Guo Wushan, thank all the fathers and villagers, everyone should go home first, and I will give everyone credit in the future." ”

The imperial court came, the county lieutenant also had something to do, everyone dispersed, the Tao family was all excited, and Fu Xi had time to ask if anyone was injured.
