There were too many enemies, and Lion Rock was too small, so Huang Mi took the initiative to shrink the defensive line and only held the critical places above the halfway slope, so that Zhu Xieyuan's 28,000 officers and soldiers could not fully deploy.

"Hey, there's a baby here," shouted Chen Fugui, the captain of the regular soldiers, "Mr. Sentinel, I found a baby!" ”

Xiao Zongxian scolded with a heavy face: "The officers and soldiers have already attacked the mountain, what are you making a fuss about?" ”

Chen Fugui pulled out a stone the size of an egg, and that section of the mountain wall was smashed, and said excitedly: "Mr. Sentinel, this is a meteorite from the sky, which can be used to create a divine weapon to give to the general town." ”

"Really?" Xiao Zongxian tilted his head curiously.

"I've been striking iron for more than ten years, can I still admit my mistakes?" Chen Fugui was born as a blacksmith, "The older generation of blacksmiths said that there were many meteorites in the southwest of Fengcheng, and tens of thousands of houses were smashed during the Zhengde period. ”

This must be a false rumor, and the real situation is that there was a meteor shower in Zhengde in the eighth year. Some of the meteors smashed into the county seat and set fire to people's houses, burning down more than 20,000 houses.

Hu Dinggui ran over from the side: "Meteorite falling from the sky? Let me see, let me see! ”

"Go back, keep your part!" Xiao Zongxian immediately scolded.

Hu Dinggui said with a smile: "The officers and soldiers have just begun to climb up, and it is still too early to climb up. ”

Chen Fugui also smiled and said: "That is, can you still let the officers and soldiers attack?" ”

These Datong soldiers are really not afraid of death, and in the face of nearly 30,000 officers and soldiers, they can still talk and laugh.

Hu Dinggui, an orphan tenant.

Chen Fugui, a generation of craftsmen.

They have been reborn and do not want to live the old days, and if the officers and soldiers want to take away their fields, they must first take their lives.

……

Yamashita.

Zhu Tongjun drew his sword and shouted: "Brothers, the Zhao thief wants to divide our field, and the big guy says yes or not?" ”

"No!" The soldiers shouted in unison.

"If you want to divide our fields, let's fight with them!" Zhu Tongjun shouted hard.

"Fight, fight!"

Zhu Tongjun is actually not a big landlord, but a descendant of King Ning, the grandson of King Jianding Zhu Jinlian, and a serious Ming clan.

He also had the title of lieutenant (auxiliary lieutenant), but he had voluntarily given it up and participated in the imperial examination as a commoner. Historically, he will be promoted next year, Chongzhen thirteen years in the Jinshi, Chongzhen in the last year of the promotion of the Rite Division.

A person who can give up his title to participate in the imperial examination, when he encounters a rebellion, he naturally wants to join the army to serve the country, and take this as an opportunity to get ahead.

On the contrary, the 3,000 villagers under his command were mostly children of large clans, small landlords and yeoman farmers.

The ancient information was very closed, although Zhao Han had already disseminated the "Datong Collection" in Nanchang, and had already written down the policy of dividing the fields. However, some people deliberately distorted and spread false rumors, and the small landlords and yeoman farmers in the counties of Nanchang Prefecture thought that the thieves wanted to rob their fields.

In these places, Zhao Han developed peasant associations ahead of time and tried to promote land policies, but most small landlords and yeoman farmers did not believe it.

"Follow me to the mountain!"

Zhu Tongjun led the team to rush up the mountain, and the warriors of the countryside behind him were like rainbows, and they wanted to protect their land to the death.

About six or seven thousand officers and men began to attack the mountains from all directions - because of the terrain, there were too many people to deploy, and six or seven thousand officers and soldiers were thrown into battle at the same time It was already the limit.

"Falling rocks!"

Xiao Zongxian shouted.

Hu Dinggui and Chen Fugui hurriedly commanded the soldiers to push the stones down the slope.

At least five or six officers and soldiers were knocked over by one boulder, and more than 50 people were killed and injured at once when eight boulders went down.

The three thousand villagers under the command of Zhu Tongjun suddenly collapsed hundreds of people, and they all turned around and fled for their lives down the mountain.

"The Overseer team stepped forward!"

Zhu Xieyuan was in chief at the foot of the mountain, and under an order, the supervising teams from all over the country stepped forward one after another, killing and driving the defeated troops to attack the mountain again.

Zhu Xieyuan turned to look at the rear, where there were five thousand reinforcements from the anti-thieves. He also took advantage of the favorable terrain and waited for the other party to come to the rescue, so that they could be eliminated together.

The mountain was attacked for an afternoon, and no progress was made.

However, the rolling stones and rolling wood for guarding the mountain and fighting thieves have been almost consumed.

Two miles down the mountain, Li Zheng frowned and said, "We just watched Lao Huang being besieged? ”

"What's the hurry? It's only the first day," Fei Yinghui said, "at least two or three days, and only when the officers and soldiers show fatigue will they have a chance to seize the loopholes." Go back to your camp and hold on, for if you stay here, I'm afraid the governor will attack us at night. ”

Seeing the anti-thief reinforcements withdraw far away, Zhu Xieyuan felt a little helpless, these anti-thieves were too cautious.

Zhu Xieyuan instructed: "Inform the whole army that I will beat the drums all night, so that they don't be afraid when they hear the drums, and sleep and rest honestly!" ”

"Knock knock!"

On the first watch, the soldiers on both sides had not yet slept, and suddenly the drums of the officers and soldiers sounded on all sides.

Huang Mi ordered the soldiers to be vigilant, and all of them cheered up to guard against the officers and soldiers from sneaking up on all important places at night.

On the second watch, the drums sounded again.

The soldiers on both sides were awakened, not to mention the thieves on the mountain, even the officers and soldiers under the mountain were frightened.

On the day of the third watch, the drums came to mind again.

The thieves on the mountain did not dare to sleep, or rather, they were always in a state of half-sleep, holding weapons and ready to fight at any time.

As for the officers and soldiers under the mountain, on the contrary, they became stable, they knew that it was their own drums, and it should be the thieves who had a headache at this time.

Four watches.

"Doodoo Dot ......"

Before the drums sounded, a trumpet suddenly sounded from the mountain, and countless officers and soldiers got up in terror, some villagers even planned to flee, and one-third of the battalions below the mountain fell into chaos.

"Don't panic, don't panic, it's a thief's plan to harass the enemy!"

"Drumming!"

"Knock knock!"

No one wanted to sleep tonight, and the next morning they got up, and the soldiers on both sides had bloodshot eyes.

Li Zheng and Fei Yinghui, after dawn, came over again with reinforcements and watched the battle from a distance of two or three miles. They slept soundly, and they were all in good spirits.

Today, the officers and men changed their troops to attack, and the troops that attacked yesterday can rest.

Wheel war, fatigue war, Zhu Xieyuan wants to drag down the anti-thieves on the mountain.

Wanhuaxin, from Nanchang Wanshi, has tens of thousands of acres of fertile land.

He led more than 1,000 soldiers and began to attack the mountain desperately, and if the thieves wanted to divide the field, they had to collapse over his corpse.

Zhu Xieyuan felt that Jiangxi's military generals were unusable, so he simply appointed capable gentry to temporarily command the village warriors they recruited. Including Wang Tingqian, he also briefly obtained the command of 2,000 Xiangyong.

Wanhuaxin's three attacks were all repulsed, with more than 100 villagers killed and wounded, and there were faint signs of collapse.

His troops were immediately replaced, and Xiucai Deng Lingui attacked with his self-recruited villagers.

In the morning, there was still no progress, but the rolling stones and rolling logs of the thieves on the mountain were really used up this time, including the materials collected overnight last night.

didn't even give the thieves time for lunch, Fan Laiji, Zhang Pinyuan and other big clan scholars filled their stomachs in advance and continued to attack the mountain frantically with Xiangyong.

Huang Qi said with red eyes: "Each sentinel team, divide one-third to eat and sleep, and no matter how fierce the attack is under the mountain, you must sleep!" Ten thousand enemies should not use it indiscriminately, and wait for the officers and soldiers to gather and kill before throwing it away. ”

Ten thousand enemies are porcelain shell bombs, and Huang Mi only has more than 200 in his hands.

Fan Laizhi led his troops to rush up the hillside, shouting with great joy: "The anti-thief has fallen and the stone has fallen, follow me!" ”

Hu Dinggui only got 50,000 enemies, and kept reminding his subordinates: "Throw it when you get closer, throw it when you get closer, and throw it into the pile." Wait, wait, it's now, throw 10,000 enemies! ”

Just throw one, you have to save a little.

The porcelain shell bomb was ignited and thrown into the pile of officers and soldiers.

Seven or eight more steps, you can engage the anti-thief, and Fan Laiji seems to see hope for victory.

"Boom!"

The 10,000-strong enemy suddenly exploded, blowing up three Xiangyong on the spot, seven or eight were injured by the splashing of porcelain, and Fan Laizhi himself was also injured in the waist.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"

The nearby townspeople began to cough and cry, but in fact, the scope of influence was not large, and the chili noodles were smoked to more than a dozen people.

"Kill!"

Hu Dinggui suddenly rushed out of the improvised fortifications, led the whole team of 30 people, and went to more than 300 townships. Chen Fugui next to him also threw out 10,000 enemies and learned from Hu Dinggui to carry out a countercharge.

They had already taken off their leggings, moistened them with water, and covered their mouths and noses to prevent the effects of chili noodles.

There are pools of water on the mountain, as well as mountain springs, and there is no worry about water breaking.

Hu Dinggui stabbed a villager to death with a spear, and cooperated with his subordinates to stab another villager to death. Before he could shoot the third shot, the more than 300 enemies in front of him were already in a daze and rout, and fled down the mountain with a panicked scream.

In fact, there were not many casualties in Xiang Yong, he was purely scared away.

There is another Xiucai named Cheng Jiqing, who took Yong from his hometown to meet him, and at the same time set off with the supervision team.

"Withdraw!"

Hu Dinggui pursued and killed more than 20 steps, and after stabbing the fourth enemy, he immediately called the whole team of soldiers to retreat.

"Damn, my eyes are also smoked," Hu Dinggui's soldier couldn't help but rub his eyes and complain, the more he rubbed it, the more he couldn't stop crying, "I have to tell the missionary officer, let him react to this thing, don't put pepper." ”

"Don't talk nonsense," Hu Dinggui shouted, "Look at the right time, and then throw 10,000 enemies!" ”

"Boom, boom!"

There were 10,000 enemy explosions everywhere, and all departments launched counter-charges, killing the villagers for a while and no one dared to attack the mountain again.

Zhu Xieyuan could only give a heavy reward, and advertised that the thieves wanted to rob them of their land.

These big landlords, small landlords, and yeoman farmers attacked the mountains again with weapons, but the morale of the house slaves and tenants mixed in them was not high.

On the second day of the siege, the 10,000 enemies were exhausted.

Li Zheng and Fei Yinghui's reinforcements were still watching from a distance and did not come over to help.

That night, the sound of drums and the trumpets of the charge were mixed, and it was so noisy that it was impossible to sleep up and down the mountain.

"Kill!"

On the day of the fourth watch, the officers and soldiers and the anti-thieves launched a sneak attack almost at the same time, and each of them made some gains, but they did not achieve much success.

On the third day, the attack on the mountain continued.

There are many officers and soldiers, and they can take turns to rest, but the rest time of the Datong Army is even shorter.

Both sides were tired, but the officers and men of the Datong Army were even more tired.

"Kill!"

On the afternoon of the third day, the officers and men finally rushed to the offensive momentum, and Hu Dinggui successfully repelled two attacks.

"Captain!"

"Lao Chen!"

Chen Fugui, who was born as a blacksmith, was pierced with cotton armor in his abdomen, and after killing the officers and soldiers, he covered his wounds and laughed: "Haha, Lao Tzu is fine, I can fight again!" ”
