Chapter 0026 - Pick Up the Leak!
Dengzhou County was in turmoil
Wen Daozhou was still sleeping with the prostitute sleeping in the quilt, and as soon as he heard that the rogue had entered, the whole person jumped up from the quilt and hurriedly lifted his pants.
"The city is broken? Is the Rogue really coming? Wen Daozhou's voice was distorted.
The subordinate nodded quickly: "My lord, what should we do?" ”
"What should I do, hurry up and run!" Wen Daozhou said with a sad face: "What are you doing here?" ”
The prostitute on the side was still crying, and Wen Daozhou shook his hand with a big-eared scraper: "Cry, cry, cry, what are you crying?" ”
Then, Wen Dao got dressed on Monday, turned around and ran.
It should be said that Wen Daozhou was still relatively lucky, Gao Yingxiang entered the city, and the first thing he did was to surround the Zhixian Yamen, but Wen Daozhou lived in a brothel last night.
He ran out of breath, and when he was at the gate of the city, he unexpectedly met the dead eunuch Chen An.
This Chen An ran away, and the five hundred centaurs under his hand actually carried a mouthful of large boxes, all of which were the silver that the two of them had jointly looted during this time.
In addition to the money of the people, there is also the money of the gentry.
Under normal circumstances, the gentry's money should be returned in full, and the people's money should be divided into thirty or seventy.
However, with Gao Yingxiang coming over, at this time, who cares about what is divided into three or seven, as long as it is taken away, it will all be mine.
Wen Daozhou said breathlessly: "Father-in-law Chen, father-in-law Chen, take me, take me, I'll take you to find a place to hide!" ”
Chen An originally wanted to kick Wen Daozhou away, but then thought about it, this Wen Daozhou has also been here for many years, and the county master is considered a local snake.
Five hundred people rushed out in one go.
And the first thing Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng did when they entered the city was to quickly look for food, and then quickly repair it.
All the grain that can be taken away is taken away, and the grain that cannot be taken away is distributed to the people on the spot.
In fact, the development of the Liukou is not the original species that only knows robbery, whether it is Gao Yingxiang or Li Zicheng, even Zhang Xianzhong is aware that distributing food can help him gather people's hearts, and even let more people follow him.
Of course, a good system construction may not be formed within the rogue gangsters, and some low-level officers and middle-level generals still have the habit of robbing.
But, at least, the high-level of the Liukou has realized the four words of winning people's hearts, and the Ming Dynasty and the civil and military officials are also quite cooperative, after all, the Liukou is just a robbery, and the rolling princes of the Ming Dynasty, the civil and military officials are really cramping and peeling the skin, knocking the bones and sucking the marrow, they really don't believe it, can this group of cheap bones still turn the sky upside down?
Then, now Li Zicheng and Gao Yingxiang have arrested the big households in the entire Dengzhou County and began to whip and torture them.
Ask the big families of Dengzhou City to come up with silver and grain.
If you can't take it out, whether it's Gao Yingxiang or Li Zicheng, there are always 10,000 ways for you to honestly spit out the food and military salary.
Now, it's not that the people are thieves, but that they're real thieves.
The screams of the gentry in Dengzhou City were endless, but the surrounding people applauded, and before, it was in this place that the innocent people were beheaded by Wen Daozhou and Chen An.
And now, in the same place, Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng tortured these gentry to death.
Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng opened a warehouse in Dengzhou to release grain, which won the hearts of the people, and Zhang Mu was not idle at all, just waiting for Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng to leave, and immediately went to Dengzhou City to see if there was anything they could take.
It's better to find a blacksmith and see if there are any paper mills, bookstores, etc., these are resources, which are only available in the county seat.
This time, Zhang Mu personally brought Daniel Zhang over.
At the same time, the originally dispersed communist army was also fully integrated, waiting for the rogues to leave Dengzhou City, and they could get as many things as they could.
However, Zhang Mu is not in a hurry.
It is definitely not a wise move to appear now, and soon, Lu Xiangsheng is coming.
After taking Dengzhou City, whether it was Gao Yingxiang or Li Zicheng, it was a rare rest, during this time, the people who were sleeping in the open were already exhausted to the extreme, and after the torture was over, everyone was resting.
And Lu Xiangsheng, who has been chasing behind the rogue, also came.
Liukou's running skills were full, Lu Xiangsheng also ran after them, Liukou took Dengzhou City, and in less than a day, Lu Xiangsheng also appeared.
The Tianxiong army in Lu Xiangsheng's hands was only 10,000 people, and Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng combined forces, at least more than 50,000 people.
However, whether it is Gao Yingxiang or Li Zicheng's soldiers, most of them are rabble, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army dares to argue with the Jurchens, especially Lu Xiangsheng's general Zu Kuan, who is a Mongol himself, and his soldiers are also border troops, with no more than 3,000 people, but they have no power to fight back by killing the peasant army.
Wen Daozhou and Chen An were surrounded by a group of rogues outside the city.
Five hundred people fought a bloody battle, and these rogues may not be the opponents of Chen An's five hundred people, but there are many of them, and a group of people are carrying a lot of silver, so it is really difficult to escape.
In the end, it was Lu Xiangsheng who appeared and saved them.
"Lord Lu, the thieves are ferocious, they have colluded with the internal response in the city in advance, and it is not good for the officials to guard the city, and they are willing to be punished!" Wen Daozhou stood in front of Lu Xiangsheng, but his face was a little ashamed.
Lu Xiangsheng has a fair complexion and is very thin, but there is a thick bone on his arm, and his strength is particularly great, listening to Wen Daozhou's tearful performance, he just touched his beard, and made a humming sound in his nose, and then asked: "How is it in Dengzhou City?" ”
"The thieves are powerful!" Ai Ai's opening during the Wendao cycle.
Lu Xiangsheng frowned, knowing that he basically would not be able to get any valuable information from Wen Daozhou.
"Lord Lu, we have to quickly recapture Dengzhou City, the thieves are rampant, I'm afraid that they will really run away!" Chen An, who was on the side, also said in a duck-like voice: "We have to fight back!" ”
After this matter is investigated, Chen An is also responsible, and he must quickly recapture Dengzhou County.
Lu Xiangsheng suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "Gonggong Chen, you are a eunuch guarding the town, and you still have five hundred men and horses in your hands, why didn't you stick to it when the rogues entered the city?" If we hold it, it will only take one day for our army to kill, and in this way, we will be able to annihilate the rogue by attacking from the front and back! ”
Chen An immediately opened his mouth and said: "Lord Lu, what are you talking about, it's not that our family didn't defend the city desperately, but there is an internal response in this city, these five hundred people in our family, that is also a bloody battle for everyone, and now that they are alive, they all rely on the emperor's holy grace, this is the emperor's soldiers, what's the matter, Lord Lu, what do you mean, you want to let all the emperor's soldiers die?" ”
Bang!
Lu Xiangsheng slapped the table angrily, he really wanted to strangle this dead eunuch on the spot.
Chongzhen was notoriously suspicious.
If this dead eunuch really adds fuel and vinegar, if it really reaches Chongzhen's ears, it will really affect himself.
Chen An continued: "Lord Lu, I think, you better hurry up and attack the city!" ”
"Don't work for you to talk nonsense, the official has his own decision!"
Lu Xiangsheng took a hard breath, looked at Zu Kuan beside him and said, "Prepare to attack the city immediately!" ”
Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng got the food supplement, and they also wanted to rest for a night to recuperate, they believed that they had the city wall, so they naturally wanted to follow the good repairs, but Lu Xiangsheng was a thief.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
In the middle of the night, Lu Xiangsheng began to attack the city brazenly.
One artillery gun after another was aimed at the county seat of Dengzhou, and it took advantage of the dark night to open fire.
And then ......
When the peasant army saw Lu Xiangsheng and the Tianxiong army, they recalled the fear of being chased and killed, and in an instant, the entire Dengzhou City was in chaos.
In the shortest possible time, the gates were breached.
Then, the Tianxiong army took advantage of the chaos to kill into the city of Dengzhou, and the Liukou and the Tianxiong army became a mess, of course, it is more accurate to say that the Liukou was beaten unilaterally, and he was not Lu Xiangsheng's opponent at all.
Before dawn, Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng were driven out of Dengzhou City.
Dengzhou County returned to the control of the imperial court.
Subsequently, Lu Xiangsheng chased and killed all the way, preparing to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng were also a total, so they simply divided their troops, and Lu Xiangsheng chased and killed all the way at most.
Gao Yingxiang entered Hubei, and Li Zicheng went north to Kaifeng.
Wen Daozhou and Chen An were also relieved, fortunately, although this Dengzhou City was taken away by the Liukou, it was less than two days, as long as the city was still in the hands of the imperial court, their sin was not too big.
The officers and soldiers left, and Dengzhou City was also not lightly punished.
Liukou is okay, at least Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng can still be restrained.
However, when these officers and soldiers come in, who cares if you are a common man or a rogue? Especially Zu Kuan, Zu Kuan was arrogant, burned houses wherever his troops passed, raped women, and relied on his military exploits without restraint.
When he entered the city, he was three points more vicious than the rogue.
And Zhang Mu also hid far away, and after making sure that all the officers and soldiers and the rogues had left, he was ready to go to Dengzhou County, and at this moment, Wen Daozhou and Chen An also entered the city with their five hundred soldiers and horses.
"Now this artillery is still not enough to break through the city!" Standing outside the city, Zhang Mu looked at the city in front of him, but sighed in his heart, although the artillery of the Ming army was powerful, it was just a big momentum.
It is estimated that Li Zicheng and Gao Yingxiang's idea is to abandon the city and run, if they don't run, they will be surrounded and completely slaughtered.
What if it's me?
Zhang Mu asked himself, and he also had an idea in his heart.
If the strength is not enough, if I don't attack the city and do a good job of transferring the masses in advance, I can't attack the city, can't I still blockade the city?
"Who are you?"
At this time, a voice suddenly came from a distance, and then I saw a team of people also rushing towards Dengzhou County.
"Alert!" Zhang Mu roared, and immediately his soldiers raised their weapons in their hands.
"Is it an officer or soldier?"
"Is it a rogue?"
