Zhang Tiande didn't expect that this crumbling Zunyi City was a hedgehog with only one hand, and he broke nearly 2,000 soldiers and horses in half a day, he looked at the scene on the battlefield from a distance, and said: "Who is the guard of Zunyi County?" It's so powerful! There are such powerful generals in this small place! ”

The bandits on the side said: "According to the captured squires and Wei Xu who ran out of the city, there are only 400 officers and soldiers in this city, and there are more than 1,000 village warriors, plus more than 1,000 people from some miscellaneous large families, and the defender of the city is Wu Yunlin, the new magistrate of the county."

When Zhang Tiande heard this, he shook his head and made a decision: "Temporarily collect the troops and ask the leaders to go to my big tent to discuss matters!" ”

In Zhang Tiande's big tent, the second child was full of decadence, bowed his head and was silent, he came to Zunyi this time, he wanted to follow Zhang Tiande, rob some property slaves, and originally did not have the determination and plan to fight to the death with the Qing army, who knew that he encountered a hard idea in this, and he was caught off guard and suffered a fiasco.

The lives of more than a thousand men in one afternoon will remain here forever. This time it's really a recipe for stealing chickens and rice, the second child thought hatefully, he thought he had picked a soft persimmon, who knew that he had encountered a tiger! He only had more than 5,000 people in total, and all the elite 3,000 people were brought out by him, and he lost nearly half of them in one morning this day, and his vitality was greatly damaged.

The third child's face is not much better than him, his archers have also lost nearly 500 people, in addition to more than 200 wounded soldiers, all of whom were injured by lead and projectiles, the firearms of the Qing army are far and poisonous, and those shot on the torso are basically hopeless, and if they are hit on the legs or arms, they will have to be amputated, and basically this person will not be able to go to the battlefield again.

He set his eyes on Zhang Tiande: "Big brother, which guard is in this city?" Firearms are so sharp! ”

Zhang Tiande himself is also a mess, he is also wondering, listening to the words of the third child, Zhang Tiande also shook his head: "This is not clear for the time being, I heard that the keeper of this city is the new magistrate, named Wu Yunlin." ”

Noticing the expressions of the two, Zhang Tiande said: "In addition, there seem to be more than 1,000 Xiangyong, more than 1,000 Ding Nursing Homes and the like" Several people thought for a while, and they all thought that a young magistrate, with thousands of Xiangyong, did not have such strong firepower anyway.

Today, after witnessing the fiasco of the second and third children, the other small leaders retreated and said: "Leader Zhang, since this Zunyi City is difficult to attack, then we might as well bypass this place and fight Renhuai and Suiyang next to it." ”

The third child also said: "Since this city is urgent, I don't think it is appropriate to stay here too much, and it should not hurt to bypass this place, besides, I heard the gunfire at the head of the city just now, and there are only two or three hundred people, and there are not too many enemy troops in the city, otherwise they can go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with us, instead of hiding in the city and waiting for us to attack like now." ”

When Zhang Tiande heard this, he nodded slightly, and said: "The third leader is reasonable, the number of Qing troops in the city should not be much, although this city is small, and the city wall is not high, but the enemy's firearms are too sharp, and it is difficult for our army to attack the city, and it is impossible to attack the city." ”

Wei Xu showed a strange smile on his face, he stepped forward and whispered something to Zhang Tiande, Zhang Tiande was overjoyed when he heard it, and said: "Wei Xu, your idea is very good, and it will be concocted in a while." ”

Wei Xu listened, his face was full of joy.

Zhang Tiande rolled his eyes, slapped the table suddenly, and said: "I also thought of a way to break the city just now, if you don't succeed in this idea, Zunyi County will be able to break it tomorrow!" ”

Wei Xu said in surprise: "What did the big leader think of again?" ”

Zhang Tiande showed a mysterious smile on his face and said, "You'll know tomorrow." ”

Wu Yunlin saw that the enemy army retreated again, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly arranged manpower to send the soldiers who were hit by the arrows to be bandaged and treated, because of the condescending and powerful firearms, they completely suppressed the enemy, so the losses of the soldiers were not large, only more than ten people were injured by stray arrows, and no one died.

Wei Qi, Xiong Ge and others also climbed to the top of the city, looking at the dead and wounded enemy soldiers under the city, they were speechless, Wei Qi opened his mouth and said: "My lord is really powerful, I am afraid that there will be thousands of enemy soldiers in this city who will die on the spot." ”

County Cheng Chen Hetu also said: "Congratulations, my lord, these thousands of enemy army heads are the real military merits of the adults, if you report to the emperor to know, it is possible for the adults to even be promoted to the third level." ”

The second stunned man said with a smile next to him: "Two adults, you were not present at the time, under the fire of our army, the enemy did not even touch the city wall, and was beaten back." When Wei Qi heard this, he laughed and said, "Congratulations, my lord, it seems that this city is worry-free!" ”

Wu Yunlin said with a smile: "Things on the battlefield change in an instant, and victory and defeat are often only between the first line, so it is too early to talk about victory or defeat at this time." ”

In the evening, the bandits started a new round of siege, looking at the figure of the enemy army slowly advancing, Wu Yunlin couldn't help but feel a little strange, could it be that the other party had figured out a way to deal with his firearms?

Soon the enemy army was closer, Wu Yunlin found that there were hundreds of young Han women walking in the front, only to see that they were disheveled, everyone had tears on their faces, and they were forced by the bandits behind with knives, crying and crying, and slowly came towards the city.

Wu Yunlin saw these poor women, his heart was like a knife, and he slapped the city wall suddenly: "The thief is despicable, and he actually uses a woman as a meat shield!" Wei Qi and the others were also resentful, and Xiong Ge even scolded the bandits for being shameless. Looking at the crowd gradually approaching below, Wu Yunlin had no idea for a while, if he fired, it must be the woman in front who was injured first, if he didn't fire, these enemy soldiers would get closer and closer to the city wall, once they let them get close to the city wall, they began to climb and siege the city, after all, their numbers were too small, if it was really a white-knuckle battle, they were only afraid of more than lucky.

Wei Qi said: "My lord, don't open fire, killing and injuring your own people, it will hurt the heavens and peace, if it is known by the Yanguan Yushi, the adult's career will be ruined." ”

The second stunned man looked anxious next to him, and said: "My lord, give an order quickly, if you get closer, the enemy army will be under the city wall, once the enemy army breaks through the city, the tens of thousands of people in Zunyi will inevitably be poisoned, and the adults will make a decision early." ”

On the one hand, there were the people in the city, and on the other hand, the women outside the city, Wu Yunlin only felt a little trance for a while, and he couldn't make up his mind for a long time. Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to the city wall, suddenly a woman broke free from the bandits behind her and ran forward suddenly, shouting to the city as she ran: "My lord, my lord, release the arrows quickly, don't care about me waiting, if you don't release the arrows, it will be too late!" ”

She shouted twice, stopped suddenly, and turned to the women behind her and shouted: "Everyone run, today is a death anyway, and you can't be used by thieves to attack the city!" ”

Hearing her say this, several women immediately turned around and scratched and bit the bandits behind them, they were unarmed, and could only use their fingernails and even teeth to attack the heavily armed enemy, and several women also ran forward, shouting as they ran: "My lord, release the arrows, release the arrows." ”

At this moment, a sharp arrow suddenly shot out of the enemy's army, hitting the back of the heart of the woman who had just run out, the woman covered her chest, the blood did not stop, and she slowly fell, still shouting: "Hurry up and release the arrow, hurry up and release the arrow." ”

Wu Yunlin was on the city wall, only to see that his eyes were cracked, and he gritted his teeth: "Fire!" Firecrackers! Kill these brutes for me! ”

The Qing soldiers on the city wall looked at them with tears in their eyes, and when they heard the commander's order, they immediately opened fire, and poured angry artillery fire on the enemy, and the bandits saw that the situation was not good, turned around and ran, and after a while, they ran away, leaving only groups of women's corpses and bandits' corpses under the city, and these brave girls died together with the enemy army who held them hostage.

Zhang Tiande saw that his subordinates had arrived at the edge of the city and were about to succeed, but he was ruined by that woman, and sighed secretly in his heart, regretting that he had failed, since Wei Xu's plan was not good, he had to wait until tomorrow.
