Chapter 407: Official Coercion and Civil Rebellion (3) (Ask for Collection, Recommendation, Subscription)
"You're right-handed!" One of the saltmen muttered
Lu Lianggong, the military marquis of Meiluo County stationed in Haikui County, did not pay attention to the rebellion of the coolie salt workers in Wankou at all, a group of mud-legged people who had not undergone any training, even if they killed hundreds of servants in Wankou, how many weapons could they have, at most hundreds of spears and hundreds of knives, they didn't have bows and arrows, and they didn't have crossbows, let alone arrange troops? The art of war is strategic, that's a joke, what can these mud legs understand?
They were able to kill hundreds of officers and soldiers completely by relying on ants to bite and kill elephants, and then they were unprepared with the officers and soldiers in one go!
Although Lu Lianggong thought so in his heart, he didn't say so on his lips, in front of You Hongyi, he had to show a very difficult appearance, only in this way could he slaughter You Hongyi fiercely, and he could get more benefits.
Looking at You Hongyi on the other side, Lu Lianggong deliberately looked embarrassed and told the other party that there were tens of thousands of salt workers in the mouth of Haikui Bay, and there were tens of thousands of strong men alone, although there were 10,000 people in his hands, but it was to resist the invasion, not to deal with the salt workers.
Besides, the county chief has not paid much attention to the military, for a long time, the weapons used by the army have not been replaced in time, the knives used by the soldiers are rusty, the spear shafts are broken as soon as they are forced, the crossbow strings are soft and weak, and the war horses are old and weak.
Seeing that Lu Lianggong looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, You Hongyi's heart was dripping blood, if you dare to tell the county head about this, do you still need to invite you, a bastard? Ten thousand soldiers? It's not bad that you Lu Lianggong has 6,000 people in your hands, don't think that the head of the county doesn't know that you are eating empty salaries in private, and that the military expenses allocated have all fallen into your personal pockets, and those brand-new weapons are probably all sold by you to those wealthy gentry armed private soldiers, right?
You Hongyi hated in his heart, but he still had to smile on his face, he said a good thing and a basket, and finally exchanged the opening fee of 50,000 taels of silver for Lu Lianggong's troops, seeing that Lu Lianggong looked like he was wronged, and the county head You earned it, You Hongyi hated it even more, and most of the 50,000 taels of silver had to be paid out of his own pocket.
Zhao Daxun looked at him coldly from the side, this matter is not his turn to be a sailor, and now the strength in his hands is not even as good as Lu Lianggong, although his grade is higher than Lu Lianggong, but in Haikui County, his actual voice is far inferior to Lu Lianggong.
Seeing Lu Lianggong's relaxed appearance, Zhao Daxun couldn't help but remind: "Lu Junhou, you must not be careless, although it is just a riot of some salt workers and coolies, you must also be careful, now the entire Dawu is rebelling again, many of which are set off by some peasants, even our six countries in Jinxi are not at peace." ”
Lu Lianggong smiled, bowed his hand to Zhao Daxun, and said:
"Commander Zhao, please rest assured, these are just some small thieves, how can they mess up our Haikui County, you just wait and see, I will prepare today, I will send troops early tomorrow morning, and I will return triumphantly the day after tomorrow, and then I will hang the heads of those thieves on the wall of our county, and see if anyone dares to make trouble in the future."
Zhao Daxun looked at Lu Lianggong's smug face, he could only shake his head helplessly, stood up and smiled slightly at You Hongyi, and strode out, his own sailor also had to make some necessary preparations, in case Lu Lianggong missed, the riotous salt workers would inevitably take the opportunity to attack Haikui County, and his own sailor could not suffer from the pond fish, on the water, he was a dragon, but on land, he was not enough to be gnawed.
Faintly, Zhao Daxun sensed a hint of danger, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out.
Lu Lianggong left half of the team in Haikui County, and at noon the next day, he personally took the other half of the soldiers to Wankou, looking at the short and simple city wall that appeared out of thin air, and was dumbfounded, but also not only shook his head and smiled, from his place, behind the simple city wall, more people were holding wooden sticks and bamboo guns, and only a very few people were holding spears and knives, and they were wearing Kai armor, which must have been taken from the killed soldiers.
The horsewhip pointed at the opposite side, and Lu Lianggong laughed and said, "Such thieves, it is a shame that Commander Zhao still looks down on them." ”
The head of the guard beside him said with a flattering smile:
"Lord Lu is right, with your divine might, it is not easy to deal with such a little thief, and take it in one fell swoop! Lord Lu, do you think we're going to attack? ”
Lu Lianggong looked up at the sun, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his hand and said:
"On this day of the dog's day, it's really hot, tell the brethren to rush in and do whatever they want, these thieves deserve to die anyway."
"Okay" The head of the guard ran excitedly to give the order, Lu Junhou's words meant to tell them that they don't have to care about any military discipline after breaking the Wankou Salt Factory, they can do whatever they want, although these mud legs don't have money, but their ladies must be indispensable.
Sure enough, hearing Lu Lianggong's order, the soldiers who were lazy by the sun suddenly became excited, their eyes lit up, staring at the low wall opposite, their eyes flashing with greed.
"Attack, the brethren killed them for me"
Lu Lianggong waved his horsewhip, but he dismounted and walked to a shade of a tree, where a soldier had already set up a stool and waited for him to sit down, fanning him diligently, and telling some jokes to make Lu Junhou happy.
Liu Er Mazi nervously looked at the soldiers of Haikui County who were swarming on the opposite side, the spear shaft in his hand trembled slightly, and the sweat oozing out made the spear shaft slippery and greasy to hold, he tore off a piece of clothing with a sigh, wrapped it around his arm layer by layer, tied the spear shaft tightly to his hand, turned around and said to a few people around him:
"Tell the old and young masters, fathers and fellow villagers, as long as we hold the city wall, we can survive, if we take a step back, not only will we all die, but our wives, sons and daughters will also die, and now we are all on this, we can only fight with the dog officers and soldiers!"
"Fight it"
Tens of thousands of young men held wooden sticks and bamboo guns, poured onto the city wall, and stared angrily at the soldiers of Haikui County who rushed over.
There was a sound of feather arrows breaking through the air in the air, although the county soldiers of Haikui County were chaotic, but they would not forget how to attack the city wall, although they did not have any siege equipment, but such a simple city wall really did not need those large siege equipment, I am afraid that a few people rushed up, and a joint collision would also knock the city wall open.
Under the cover of the archers and crossbowmen of Haikui County, rows of foot soldiers rushed up with shouts.
