Wang Mu shouted at the cavalry on the city wall: "Dare to be a good man, is it Shun or Ming?" ”

Under the city were Wang Hong, Zhao Tu and others, they did not answer Wang Mu, Jiang Tai and Wang Mu said: "My lord, they are few people, and the last general will lead troops to chop them." ”

Wang Muzhen hopes that the city is a Ming cavalry, his heart is to the Ming Dynasty, Jiang Huang surrendered to Jin, he felt pain in his heart, and because Jiang Huang surrendered to Jin, he almost gave up the city defense, from the heart he was unwilling to defend the city for the Qing army, to provide logistics for the Qing army.

This is also the military and people of Guangling County heard that Wei County was captured by the Dashun army, he let the generals leave, and after the rebels withdrew, he and Jiang Tai, the general of Qian, organized a militia group to protect the people in the city who were unable to evacuate.

Wang Hong and Zhao Tu said softly: "Old man Zhao, do you know this person?" ”

Zhao Tu was dumbfounded, but in his impression, Wang Mu was not the magistrate of Guangling County, Wang Mu was transferred to the magistrate of Guangling County a month ago, and the previous Jin Zhixian had already spent money to get through the relationship and return to Datong City, but when he arrived in the city, it was impossible to go back without saying a word, so he had to ask: "Dare to ask if it is the magistrate of Guangling County?" ”

"I am the magistrate of Guangling County, Wang Mu."

These words were like a knife, so that Zhao Tu could not speak, Wang Hong saw that Zhao Tu could not speak, and stepped forward: "I am the banner of the forward battalion of the Dashun Army, and I want to borrow your place to rest, please open the city gate and let me and my brothers enter the city." ”

Wang Mu and Jiang Tai ordered the city gate to be opened and let the more than ten cavalrymen enter the city, Jiang Tai hurriedly said to him: "My lord, don't open the city gate." ”

"That's all they have, and you're not sure you can catch this thief?"

Jiang Tai immediately led his troops to the city gate to set up defenses, and after the defense was arranged, he ordered to open the city gate and invite Wang Hong and Zhao Tu and others to enter the city, but at this time, Zhao Tu and Wang Hong did not enter the city, Wang Hong and Wang Mu said: "This family, or you come outside the city, my tens of thousands of troops are in Wei County, if you don't come out, tomorrow will definitely break through this city and slaughter the whole city of soldiers and civilians." ”

This is a bright threat, Wang Mu couldn't bear to be slaughtered by the people of the city, and resolutely decided to go out of the city, Jiang Tai grabbed him and didn't let him go out, but he got rid of Jiang Tai and went out of the city with a resolute face, Jiang Tai was not at ease, and took hundreds of militia groups to follow him out of the city.

"Jiang Tai, go back, if they kill me, they don't need to do it now, they can besiege the city tomorrow."

Under Wang Mu's command, Jiang Tai stupidly led his troops on the city wall, aiming at the cavalry under the city with bows and arrows, Wang Hong and Zhao Tu watched Wang Mu go out of the city, admiring this person's courage.

Zhao Tu rode forward, came to Wang Mu, and said, "Wang Zhixian, dare to ask where Jin Zhixian went?" ”

Wang Mu said to him: "Jin Zhixian has gone to Datong City, and I am the current magistrate of Guangling County.

Has the magistrate of Guangling County been replaced?

Zhao Tu scolded himself for being so confused, why didn't he know that Jin Zhixian was not in Guangling?

He looked at Wang Mu again, he looked like a difficult person to speak, the one thousand taels of silver that Ling Jingyang gave him, even if it was given to this person, this person was probably with a straight face, but he still mustered up the courage to say: "Wang Zhixian, my general doesn't want to mess with the Dashun army, and wants to take his brothers to have a good future, I don't know if there is a shortage of soldiers here in Wang Zhixian, and there are many fewer generals?" ”

This is a naked surrender to him, Wang Mu suddenly looked down on these Dashun troops, and they were just a group of people who were afraid of death, but he suddenly had a plan, these Dashun troops wanted to surrender, why not turn Dashun into his private army, maybe at a critical moment, he could become the backbone of the anyway.

He immediately changed his face and said to Wang Hong: "Yes, the old man is short of soldiers and major generals, you can come to vote, the old man can't ask for it, and please go into the city to chat with the old man while eating." ”

Wang Hong is not stupid, he will not enter the city easily, but he always imprints in his mind what Li Rufeng said to him before leaving, no matter what the people in Guangling County say, don't be stupid and be tricked into the city to chop up.

So Wang Hong passed the word and prepared to go back, but the thousand taels of silver brought by poor Zhao Tu were useless, and Gu was taken back by Wang Hong, and Wang Hong returned to Wei County, and it was already dawn.

Ling Jingyang slept beautifully last night, and after eating the breakfast made by Wen Yuanyang, he heard that Wang Hong and Zhao Tu were back, so he hurriedly took his own soldiers to meet the two.

The two of them ran all night last night, they were a little tired, seeing Ling Jingyang, Wang Hong looked proud, Zhao Tu was very faceless, he didn't know that Guanglingzhi County had been replaced, if it weren't for Wang Mu wanting to recruit the Dashun army. He almost screwed up the swindling.

The two of them told Ling Jingyang, the magistrate of Guangling County, and Ling Jingyang only heard one sentence, Wang Mu's first sentence was to ask them Dashun or Daming?

Wang Hong was stunned for a moment, and emphasized to Ling Jingyang that Wang Hong's first sentence was indeed this, the corners of Ling Jingyang's mouth were crooked, and he said with a smile: "This Wang Mu is a little interesting, tomorrow the whole cavalry battalion will go to Guangling City for an armed parade, and the artillery battalion will also take the fire battalion to show off the fire guns." ”

Only by showing his outstanding strength in front of Wang Mu can he be recognized by others, Ling Jingyang thought that this Wang Mu might be the same as Murong Tu, and he did not want to follow Jiang Hao to surrender to the Qing army.

He immediately summoned Murong Tu and asked him if he knew Wang Mu, Murong Tu shook his head, he didn't know Wang Mu, but he used to be the general manager of Guangling City, maybe Guangling City still had subordinates, if the army attacked Guangling City, he was willing to be the vanguard.

Ling Jingyang sighed that Datong Mansion was too small, and they were all acquaintances, so he asked Murong Tu to go to Guangling City tomorrow, and he led the remaining soldiers and horses to continue to garrison Wei County, waiting for other families to send grain and grass.

In the afternoon of the same day, the cavalry battalion, the artillery battalion, and the three soldiers and horses of Murong Tu advanced towards Guangling City, and Ling Jingyang led the troops directly under him, and Zhang Luofu, Leng Rutie and other troops continued to rest.

The troops going to Guangling City took Guangling City the next morning, and more than 1,000 soldiers of the Dashun army were fully armed, and they showed off their strength and prestige under the city, especially the artillery camp in the fire camp, and they played under the city, sometimes raising guns, sometimes firing at the city gate, which frightened Wang Mu and Jiang Tai a lot, thinking that these Dashun troops were attacking the city.

Murong Tu's troops are numerous, but a large part of them are miscellaneous soldiers, he only let the troops fight under the city, and did not march, he watched the officials of Guangling City lead the militia to defend on the city wall, and suddenly saw a familiar shadow, isn't that Jiang Tai?

Jiang Tai is his old subordinate, he was the general manager when he was in Guangling City, and now he is also promoted to the general manager of Qian, he hammered the horse's buttocks, the war horse was in pain, and rushed to the city gate with him.

"Jiang Tai, it's me Murong Tu!"

Jiang Tai also saw him, it turned out to be his former boss Murong Tu, Murong Tu once refused to surrender to the Dashun army and took the troops to the mountains, which made him very moved, but when he saw Murong Tu again, Murong Tu actually voted for the Dashun army, Jiang Tai was a little unacceptable.

Wang Mu asked him, do you know the generals of the Dashun army under the city?
