He looked at Zhao Kuo: "The enemy army will inevitably send troops to help, Zhao Kuo, most of your subordinates are strong, and have not been trained, if the enemy army is difficult tomorrow, then form a formation in place, stick to it and wait for reinforcements, I will break the enemy camp and destroy the artillery or kill Zhang Tiande, I will quickly go to relieve the siege for you." ”

Zhao Kuo received the order with indignation: "Please rest assured, even if I give up this life, I will drag the enemy army at the West Gate for my lord!" ”

Wu Yunlin said: "The Japanese general of the Ming Dynasty personally led a thousand elites, and when the enemy army divided his troops to reinforce the West Gate, he attacked the enemy's commander's camp, and the dog led Wu Bai's pikemen in the front, and the general led Wu Bai's musketeers behind, and Mr. Xiong and Er's stunned son were in the city, and Wei Qi worked together to defend the city and watch the official break the enemy. ”

The generals took the promise and left. Early the next morning, Wu Yunlin was neatly dressed and gathered heavy troops in front of the East Gate, waiting for the upcoming decisive battle.

Gradually, the scheduled hour is coming, Zhao Kuo rubbed the sweat in his palms, looked back, two thousand people in the back, wearing the clothes of the official army, holding spears, big knives, with a sense of death in their eyes, there is an invincible momentum in their eyes, three hundred archers looked solemn, clenched the longbow, Zhao Kuo shouted in a low voice: "Gentlemen, take the spear in your hand, follow the general, break through!" ”

In Zunyi County, the west gate slowly opened, and Zhao Kuo took the lead, holding a big knife, shaking the reins, and rushing towards the bandits' camp with two thousand death squads.

Zhao Kuo and his entourage didn't walk long before they were discovered by the bandits' sentinels, Zhao Kuo simply did not hide his whereabouts, took everyone, under the banner of Wu Yunlin, and rushed directly to the weakest place of the enemy's defense, as if he was ready to break through.

Today is the second master of the smiling tiger led the troops to block the West Gate, he attacked the city yesterday, his subordinates suffered heavy losses, so he asked for the more relaxed character of guarding the West Gate, but I didn't expect to listen to the soldiers under his command early in the morning to report that the officers and soldiers broke through.

The smiling tiger hurriedly led people out of the camp, only to see a team of officers and soldiers, the first general was holding a Mo knife, majestic, and a black flag with Wu characters written on it behind him, and was constantly speeding westward, as if he was going to break through.

The smiling tiger in charge suffered from the hardships of the officers and men yesterday, and the 3,000 troops lost more than 1,000 troops, but today seeing that the number of enemy troops is greater than that of his own, he did not dare to come forward to meet the battle for a while.

The second boss smiling tiger was shocked, so he ordered his subordinate Wu Bai archers to bite the enemy army tightly to break through the enemy, but they did not easily engage the other party, and then hurriedly sent messengers to Zhang Tiande's camp to report the news, and he took Wu Bai archers with 1,000 infantry, vigilantly looking ahead, ready to fight the incoming enemy army.

Zhang Tiande received an urgent report, saying that the Zunyi Shou General broke through under the banner of Wu characters, and was taken aback, looked back and said:

"The officers and soldiers have the advantage, why rush to break through? Could it be that the enemy has already learned that our red-coated artillery is about to arrive? Where did the enemy get the news? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the people around him with suspicion, Wei Xu is the enemy of Wu County Order, and the others are old bandits, not to mention the loyalty, then only the new old seven who joined this year are the most suspicious.

Lao Qi saw Zhang Tiande's suspicious gaze sweeping around on his body, he couldn't help but feel that his scalp was numb, his mind was active, and after a little thought, he guessed Zhang Tiande's thoughts, he frowned and thought about it, and then he had a plan, so he stepped forward and said: "Since the enemy army has broken through, the second master is difficult to support alone, I am willing to lead the elite soldiers of the headquarters to help the second master smiling tiger brother." ”

Wei Xu was the most fierce, and he also said loudly: "Big boss, why don't I take the white turban soldiers to pursue the enemy army?" ”

Zhang Tiande saw that Lao Qi took the initiative to ask for battle, and most of his suspicions disappeared immediately, at this moment, time is pressing, officers and soldiers may break through at any time, and the Ming generals guarding this place should deal with it in a good way, and use firearms without permission, and if time goes by, it will become a big trouble for his henchmen, and he must not let it go.

Zhang Tiande secretly made up his mind, and listed the killing of the county order here as the most important task today, and the importance even exceeded the capture of Zunyi City, in his opinion, it doesn't matter if Zunyi City can't be defeated, it's just that there are some less captures, and this city defender is a skilled firearm, powerful, and brave and strategic, and he is really a difficult opponent.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tiande opened his mouth and said: "The enemy generals should not be underestimated, Wei Xu, you and Lao Qi together, rush to the aid of the second child, I don't want anything else, the head of the Ming general who defends the city, you must bring it to me!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard Wei Xu say beside him: "Big boss, don't!" ”

Zhang Tiande didn't expect Wei Xu to stop him, and couldn't help but cast a puzzled look at Wei Xu.

Wei Xu said in a deep voice: "Big boss, with my little understanding of officers and soldiers, this Wu Yunlin has always been cunning and cunning, and the big boss must be careful of the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. ”

Zhang Tiande frowned and said, "Then what if he really breaks through?" Didn't that make him run? ”

Wei Xu said: "The big boss can let the third boss go to the west gate of Zunyi for reinforcements, and chase and kill the people who broke through with the second boss, if it is really Wu Yunlin to break through, the two soldiers and horses can trap him, even if it is urgent, as long as the other party is entangled, it will not be too late for the big boss to lead the main force to rush to it." ”

When Zhang Tiande heard this, he thought about it and acted according to the plan, and the third led the troops to the west gate of Zunyi to assist the second boss of the smiling tiger and chase down the officers and soldiers who broke through. Wu Yunlin was lying on the city wall at the mouth of the battlement, observing the enemy camp in the distance, only to see a team of about 2,000 people, leaving the camp and going to the west of the city without stopping, he knew that the plan was successful, so he went down the city wall and prepared to attack. When he went down to the city, he was shocked to see that many people had come to the dark ground below, not only with their own troops, but also with a large group of people.

Seeing Wu Yunlin going down to the city, a strong man among the people stepped forward and said: "Lord Zhao recruited troops yesterday, we people know about it, we know that Lord Zhao is a good official, for the people of the city, I have to go into battle in person today, and my lord still spares his life, not to mention us, we also have more than 1,000 people here, and we are willing to go out of the city to kill the enemy together." ”

Wu Yunlin looked at these people, one by one, their eyes were firm, and they looked at themselves eagerly, some of them were carrying hoes, some were holding sticks, and some were holding woodcutters.

He arched his hand and said: "The hearts of the fathers and elders, this official has received it, but the battlefield fight is not trivial, since the fathers and elders are enthusiastic to come, you can help me defend the city, and the matter of fighting will be handed over to the general." ”

So he ordered Erzhuzi to lead the two thousand people, distribute them, accept the command of Xiong Ge and Wei Qi, and take up the task of defending the city.

Wu Yunlin waited for a while, expecting that the enemy's reinforcements should have also arrived at the West Gate, he took a deep breath and said to the second stunned: "Open the city gate!" The two were stunned, and suddenly more than a dozen soldiers unloaded the gate of the city gate, pushed the city gate hard, and the east gate of Zunyi County slowly opened! Wu Yunlin rode on his horse, looked back at the soldiers standing in line behind him, raised the big knife in his hand, and shouted: "Everyone, kill the enemy with me!" ”

Zhao Kuo rode on a horse, and ran westward with two thousand people unhurriedly, and had been out of the city for a while, but for some reason the enemy army did not kill as much as expected, but only followed behind him, like a pack of wolves following his prey.

Behind Zhao Kuo, two soldiers, one holding a black flag, a black flag embroidered with the word "Wu" in red letters, this is Wu Yunlin's military flag, in order to break through the realistic, it was given to Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo secretly thought that he must not live up to the high expectations of the adults for himself, even if he died, he would have to hold the enemy firmly behind, thinking of this, he waved his long knife and led his subordinates to the west more urgently.

The second master smiling tiger was waiting for a long time, and did not dare to attack, the second master smiling tiger attacked the city yesterday, and was given a head-on blow by Wu Yunlin with muskets and artillery, and most of the elite losses under his command have been beaten out of the psychological shadow, he has always been decisive in killing, and after suffering a huge loss yesterday, today he can't help but look forward and backward, indecisive.

He looked at the enemy army rushing towards him, and it turned out to be straight towards his own army, and its momentum was so fierce that it made the second-in-command smiling tiger, who was not superior in numbers, have the mind of retreating to dodge.

The second boss smiling tiger came here only to plunder property and slaves, he didn't want to use his elite to fight hard with the officers and soldiers, the rules of bandits have always been the weak and the strong, and his strength has been greatly reduced, if he fights with the officers and soldiers again, he is afraid that he will be swallowed up by others after he goes back, and there will be no bones left.

Just for the sake of wealth, not desperate two boss smiling tiger is planning to lead the army to avoid the officers and soldiers, suddenly saw the dust flying behind him, a biao soldiers and horses are galloping, it is the third to help, the second boss smiling tiger is overjoyed, so he does not fight with the officers and soldiers, led his 1,000 men to go to meet with the third one.

The third saw that the second master smiling tiger did not intercept the enemy, but came to meet him, and waited until the second master smiling tiger was close, and then asked: "Second master, why didn't you intercept the enemy just now?" ”

The second master smiled and said: "The people who come are cunning, I am only afraid that the enemy army will have another ambush." Lao San said angrily: "Where is there so many ambushes in the enemy army, now that the enemy is outnumbered, it is the time to cover up and kill, quickly follow me to kill the enemy, if you let the big boss know that you are not effective in battle......"

The second boss smiling tiger remembered Zhang Tiande's ferocity, and couldn't help but shiver, gritted his teeth and said: "It's okay, third brother, let's march together." ”

So the two joined forces and killed Zhao Kuo...... Zhang Tiande stood in front of the formation, and suddenly found that the opposite city was moving, and then the city gate slowly opened, and a group of officers and soldiers, with neat steps, rushed out of the city gate.

Wei Xu said on the side: "Big boss, I saw that the leader was that Wu Yunlin, the breakthrough of the West Gate just now seems to be a suspicious plan, the real purpose of the officers and soldiers is to fight a decisive battle with our army here, or send someone to call the third child back." ”

Zhang Tiande shook his head, pointed to the officers and soldiers in front of him and said: "Wei Xu, you see, the enemy army only has 2,000 people, and our army has 7,000 troops here, and the way of engagement is still the field battle we are best at, Wei Xu, what are you afraid of?" ”

Wei Xu was said by Zhang Tiande, and he couldn't help but blush, and he stepped back without saying a word. Zhang Tiande looked at the fifth man and said: "Although the enemy is only two thousand people, this person is extremely cunning and should not be underestimated. Wei Xu said loudly: "Please rest assured, sit back and watch our generation break the enemy!" ”

Zhang Tiande nodded slightly, Lao Wu got the order, brought a thousand long knives from the headquarters, and a thousand light archers waved behind, rushing towards the officers and soldiers, Wei Xu and Lao Si took the bandits, slowly followed behind, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

Seeing that the enemy army was killed, Wu Yunlin immediately shouted, ordered the whole army to stop advancing, and then ordered the foot soldiers in the front to erect more than 50 huge shields to protect the long knife men and musketeers behind them.
