The journey of hundreds of miles, if you are in a world with advanced science and technology, it will take an hour, or even half an hour, but in the land of Kyushu, which is a very typical feudal era, it is enough for ordinary people to walk for three or four days.

After all, there was no concept of a highway at this time, and even if there was a dedicated road, it was not something that these villagers could know.

Therefore, Jiang Cheng led the old and weak women and children who came forward to walk for thirty miles after a day.

Although it was very short, Jiang Cheng was also very satisfied, because he knew what kind of quality these people under his command were, and it was worth mentioning that he could walk another ten miles to the next villager gathering place.

After a short night's rest, early the next morning, Jiang Cheng ordered his men to kill the few remaining fat pigs.

Jiang Cheng's soldiers were lucky enough to have a bowl of broth, and on the occasion of the battle, Jiang Cheng specially ordered that each soldier could drink a small wine or two.

After eating and drinking, two hours later, Jiang Cheng led the team to Zhangjia Village.

"Attack, arrest everyone for me, dare to resist, and kill everyone. After arriving in Zhangjia Village, Jiang Cheng gave an order, and then the soldiers who were already drunk behind him stepped forward one after another.

"Kill!"

The development of events did not surprise Jiang Cheng, these villagers were quickly escorted out, which is very normal, after all, Jiang Cheng's subordinates are all trained.

Although the discipline and combat effectiveness are still in shambles, it is still easy to deal with the unarmed villagers.

Three hours later, all the villagers of Zhangjia Village were arrested in front of Jiang Cheng.

"Folks, don't be afraid, we are under the command of General Tiangong, the Great Yan Imperial Court is cruel and unkind, General Tiangong is the reincarnation of the stars in the sky to help us, now I give you a chance to join our Red Turban Army to overthrow Great Yan. ”

Yuan Qing, as Jiang Cheng's henchman, has no other skills, but his ability to observe words and emotions is still very powerful, and after seeing these villagers gathered, he immediately came out to coerce and lure.

"From now on, you are all under the command of General Tiangong, and all of you will be assigned to the Xianden camp. ”

After seeing that these villagers didn't speak, Yuan Qing stopped talking nonsense, and directly incorporated these people into the cannon fodder battalion that Jiang Cheng was going to use to attack the county seat.

"Rebels and thieves. Just when Yuan Qing thought that no one objected, a middle-aged man in a Xiushi robe loudly scolded Yuan Qing and the others.

"Kill!" Jiang Cheng looked at the scholar coldly, and gave the order to strangle the other party very decisively.

"What are you going to do!" "Poof!" The middle-aged man obviously didn't expect Jiang Cheng to be so decisive, and he ordered to kill him without even asking.

As this strong middle-aged man was beheaded, everyone stopped talking, and they were also frightened by Jiang Cheng's cruel methods.

After reorganizing the team of Zhangjia Village, Jiang Cheng followed the old rules, and all the grain was collected by the army, and all the houses were burned down.

In the next three days, he led the Red Turban Army to pull in the team when he saw the living people along the way, and by the time Yongle City was still ten miles away, Jiang Cheng had already gathered a huge team of more than 5,000 people from the surrounding four villages.

Moreover, among the more than 5,000 people, there are more than 1,000 strong people who can be pulled out to fight, and Jiang Cheng has even incorporated some women into the army, and Jiang Cheng will not be stingy with these people when necessary.

And after a few days of wanton killing and pulling people in, Jiang Cheng and these people finally had no way to hide, and when they entered Yongle County ten miles away, Yongle County already knew.

Later, the county order frightened people to go to the county town to ask for reinforcements, and at the same time organized young people to defend the city.

As for the two hundred troops in the city, it really doesn't matter, these county soldiers just rely on having a good set of equipment, otherwise their combat strength is not even as good as the army trained by Jiang Cheng.

Half an hour later, Jiang Cheng led a dense army to the front of Yongle County.

"Let the brothers go and cut down the bamboo to make siege ladders, and the rest of the men will prepare sandbags for me to fill in the moat. ”

When he arrived in front of the city gate, Jiang Cheng immediately issued all kinds of orders.

Three hours later, everything was ready, and the cannon fodder who were preparing to attack the city during this time also had a rare full meal.

In order to save food, Jiang Cheng implemented a strict food rationing system, and none of these people who were coerced to come here only had a little bit of dry food every day, so they could only say that you would not starve to death, and as for being full? Then you really think too much.

Among them, those who can eat enough and support their families are as for the regular army that participates in Jiang Cheng's command, but unfortunately Jiang Cheng no longer plans to recruit the regular army.

So they only had the only way left, to join the army that had been used by Jiang Cheng as cannon fodder battalion, and only then would they be able to eat a full meal before the siege.

And in this world, there are too many people who are willing to work hard for a meal.

"Prepare, attack!!" Jiang Cheng suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist and pointed at Yongle County.

"Kill!" "Kill!"

The shouts resounded in the sky, and a team of 300 cannon fodder with rudimentary spears in their hands, without even a single defense, rushed forward in the rain of arrows from the opposing garrison.

"Shoot these thieves to death!" When the matter came to an end, Zhao Wei, the county magistrate of Yongle County, was still very responsible, and another reason was that the court law stipulated that those who abandoned the city and fled would be executed, and their families would be implicated.

And in this era, the officials who served far away from home were all naked officials, and their families were all in the territory of the imperial court, if he lost the city, or surrendered, then he would be finished.

Besides, Zhao Wei didn't think that Jiang Cheng and these people could take down the county, and no matter how he said it, the county seat was not something that some homeless people could take.

And he also reported the situation here to the Taishou of the county town, he believed that as long as he held it for four days, the reinforcements of the county town would come at that time, and then it would be Jiang Cheng's death.

Although Jiang Cheng didn't know what the other party thought, he was also very confident that his army would be able to end the battle within a day.

There are many reasons for this, especially after knowing the situation of the army in the city, Jiang Cheng is even more confident.

"Puff puff puff!" "Ahh

The first wave of attacks received a devastating blow from the top of the walls as they approached the walls.

Patches of arrows and rolling stones kept falling, and these three hundred people were just cannon fodder troops under Jiang Cheng, and they couldn't accept the loss in an instant.
