There is no such thing as an impermeable wall.

The news that Yang Chengying sent troops to exterminate the bandits in Fuzhou soon reached the ears of Liu Xingzuo, who was guarding Gaizhou.

"How many troops did he send out? What generals did you bring? ”

Looking at the sentry who was kneeling on one knee in front of him, Liu Xingzuo asked a few questions that he was most concerned about.

The answer disappointed him.

"When Yang Chengying sent troops, he sent a large number of sentry spies to open the way in front, and several brothers were almost captured."

The sentry replied, "The subordinates don't know how many soldiers they brought out, but they only vaguely saw that there seemed to be women in the team, and there were ...... Artillery! ”

"Artillery?"

Liu Xingzuo remembered that when attacking Zhenyu City, the powerful artillery directly destroyed the car.

Unexpectedly, Yang Chengying fought a bandit and pulled an artillery.

Liu Xingzhi was immediately happy: "This Yang Chengying is really interesting, fighting a bandit actually brings artillery, it is too careful." ”

"He's fighting bandits, he's on guard against us."

Liu Xingzuo saw through Yang Chengying's intentions at a glance, "He was worried that we would take the opportunity to beat him, so he was fully prepared." ”

This sentence reminded Liu Xingzhi.

He hurriedly said: "Taking advantage of the lack of others, let's hurry south and come to a wave of siege." Even if you can't kill Yang Chengying, it's good to export bird qi. ”

The idea seems to be reliable, Yang Chengying sent troops this time with a maximum of a few hundred soldiers, plus some people to transport grain and grass.

Liu Xingzuo disagreed: "You only see what is good for us, but you don't see what is harmful to us." ”

"Second brother, how do you say this?"

"The soldiers in his hands are not a rabble. Even if we succeed in surrounding him, it will be difficult to take it in a short period of time.

As soon as the enemy's reinforcements arrived, we were the turtles in the urn. ”

"That's right, what he brought out is elite, and it is indeed not to be underestimated."

Liu Xingzhi dispelled the idea of beating Yang Chengying.

In his opinion, the old Khan King didn't get a bargain in Yang Chengying's hands, so he didn't need to take this risk.

"However, we can't let him successfully exterminate the bandits and co-opt the people."

Liu Xingzuo smiled slightly and said: "Immediately order all the eight hundred families, and we will meet this Yang Chengying for a while when we go south." ”

"Second brother...... What is this trying to do? ”

Liu Xingzhi said he didn't understand.

"You stay and look after the house."

Liu Xingzuo didn't want to explain, because some things couldn't be said too deeply.

Just when Liu Xingzuo went south, Yang Chengying had already laid a cottage.

At this time, the second cottage was being attacked.

To the southwest of Luangu Pass, near Zhenyu City, a new cottage was built.

This cottage is special in that it is built on the Stone Man Mountain.

Although the road up the mountain was wide, the bandits built a thick and tall stone wall, and the width of the gate was a little more than a meter.

The door was made of thick wooden doors and was blocked from the inside.

may have known in advance that Yang Chengying had eliminated a cottage, so the other party chose to close the door of the cottage.

Bandits from nearby Shuangniu Mountain were also invited to help.

The walls of the city are full of bandits, ready to fight.

There are also heavy crossbows in front of them, which can be fired at any time to shoot through the enemy who will attack them.

"In order to build such a cottage, the other party is still very attentive."

Yang Cheng looked at it with a telescope and smiled slightly.

He took his guards to probe at close range, and he also had the idea of luring the enemy inside.

I don't know that the other party can't come out at all.

Since the other party didn't come out, Yang Chengying simply used a telescope to see enough.

At this time, a bandit shouted: "Your Excellency is not General Yang of Jinzhou Town?" ”

"Exactly!"

Yang Chengying responded loudly, "You know it's me, and you don't come out and surrender obediently!" ”

The bandit leader laughed: "You are proud of Jinzhou Town, but you are not useful here for grandpa."

There is food in Grandpa's cottage, and he is not afraid of being surrounded for three years and five years. ”

Of course, there is an element of braggart in his words, but he is really confident.

In his opinion, his stockade was specially designed to deal with the Ming army's firearms.

Walls made of thick stones are not used at all with Franc machines or exterminators. Even if you destroy a gap, you can quickly patch the hole with stones.

Besides, he will not be beaten obediently, taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and attacking from the path, he can catch the enemy by surprise.

Hearing the mocking words, Wu Sangui said angrily: "I'll pull the cannon up and let them taste the taste of the Hongyi cannon." ”

"What's the hurry, how can you use the killer truth as soon as you come up."

Yang Chengying didn't want to use the Hongyi cannon immediately.

Because he wanted to take the opportunity to get some useful information for himself.

Then, he said loudly: "Your Excellency is so arrogant! Don't you know that there is a saying that people are watching the heavens, and you are cruelly exploiting the people and robbing one side, which is a great crime. ”

"Haha...... "The leader almost died laughing, "In this place in Liaodong, crows are generally black. When you take the people away, you don't let them farm for you and collect taxes.

Lao Tzu also let them farm the land and collect a part of the tax, what is the difference. ”

"There are still differences......

Yang Chengying patiently chatted with the other party, while gesturing Wu Sangui with his hand.

Wu Sangui understood and retreated to transport the Hongyi cannon.

The leader apparently lost patience: "Attack if you have a kind, don't be crooked like a." ”

"You know me, which means that you are not a simple person."

Yang Chengying smiled and said, "I see that you seem to know how to repair the city wall, could it be that you used to be a Ming army?" ”

"Yes or no, none of it has anything to do with you."

The leader was afraid that he would leak his bottom and shouted, "If you don't attack again, I will go back." ”

The thieves in the city laughed.

One by one, they stood behind the protective ear wall, and loudly said to Yang Chengying for a burst of Zu'an-style output.

Yang Chengying's personal guards were all pale, but seeing that the boss did not give an order, they endured it very quietly.

An army is first terrible is quiet.

"Big marshal, the cannon has been pulled up."

Sun Yuanhua arrived with the cannon and whispered to Yang Chengying.

"Okay, aim a little for me and shoot hard."

Yang Chengying commanded in a low voice.

"Just take a look at the results of the artillery unit's training these days."

Sun Yuanhua finished proudly and waved his hand.

The artillerymen dug the ground on the spot and fixed the Hongyi cannon in the firing position.

Subsequently, ammunition was brought in and reloaded.

The leader of the city saw it from afar and immediately ordered: "Kill them with heavy crossbows!" ”

"Boss, our crossbow is not far enough."

A bandit alerted.

"What? This kid is so cunning! ”

The first leader was stunned, then came back to his senses and asked his brothers to crouch down to guard against artillery fire.

After a moment, he was relieved.

"A cannon, what can it do!"

The leader almost burst into tears of laughter, "This guy is really poor, he only uses one cannon." ”

"Maybe it's underestimating the enemy." There are bandits.

"Haha, then let him eat the bitter fruit of underestimating the enemy and run for nothing."

The leader looked up and laughed.

At such a distance, the artillery was not to be feared, as long as I hid behind the fortifications, they could not help me.

The leader is so confident.
