There was no change in the camp of the Qing army, and it was impossible for Chang Yuzi to lead his troops directly to the front of the camp to stir up trouble, so he had to rest in the shade of the riverside trees to wait for the situation to develop.

Chang Yu was lying in the shade of the tree, next to Song Luoshu, Hao Shaoqi and others sat around chatting together, Jia Waixiong scolded and came out of the river, the weather was hot, he went down to the river to swim, but he didn't think that there were dead bodies in the water, and he almost didn't climb up.

"Cowardly, I can't help you when I'm alive, how can I drip you when I'm dead" Chang Yu scolded with a smile, Jia Waixiong touched his head: "I'm so scared that I'm not afraid, I'm so panicked......"

As he was talking, there was a shouting sound from the south, and everyone turned over in shock, but saw a few soldiers pressing a Qing army coming, and it turned out to be a dying wounded Qing soldier hiding in the grass by the river and was found.

"Hey, Lao Tzu is going to ask for a confession" Lao Jiu sneered and walked over, and Jia Waixiong and a few others followed.

Chang Yu pursed his lips, a soldier's hairy confession, and several people just wanted to have fun.

"Stop playing, disturb the peace of the governor, give him a good time" Chang Yu shouted to a few people, he killed and killed the thieves and prisoners, and he didn't have any mercy for the Tartars, not because he was afraid that he would be humiliated and tortured to death, but because he didn't want his subordinates to go mad.

There is a saying that war makes people's hearts lose and distort, and any inhumane and inhumane thing can be done, if Chang Yu does not stop, he can't imagine what kind of torture this Qing army prisoner will suffer, and Lao Jiu They will also become extremely cruel and even distorted without knowing it.

This is the last thing Chang Yu wants to see, but sometimes he can feel that he is falling into a demon.

So the Qing army prisoner was saved from torture and was cut off by a knife, and then a few Ming soldiers were idle and kicked around in the riverside clearing to play, Chang Yu looked at everything in front of him, his face was expressionless, but his heart was extremely hateful, hating himself for being expressionless, and his heart was unwavering.

Several fast horses galloped from the northwest on the opposite bank, Chang Yu turned over and said lightly: "The Tartars are coming" Hao Shaoqi and the others were startled, shouting to prepare for war and gather soldiers and horses.

Sure enough, a few scouts came on horseback, and began to shout on the other side: "Report, Governor, the Tartars sent 3,000 troops south to Linzi!" Saying that, he raised his hand and pointed to the southwest, Chang Yu looked at Mingzu Mountain, and saw that there was a flag waving halfway up the mountain, although he couldn't understand the flag, he knew that there was also a warning, and he had already found that the Qing army was moving.

"There are more than 3,000 soldiers and horses than us, and you can do it well" Chang Yu turned his head and smiled, and several of his fierce generals laughed and said nothing, drawing their knives and slashing murderously.

Very good, Chang Yu is very satisfied with the performance of his subordinates, he usually forces and forces nonsense, but when he comes alive, he doesn't talk much: "After this hard fight, it will be easy in the future, almost the same as when I came, chase and cut!" ”

Everyone looked at each other and smiled, Chang Yu turned his head to the scout and said, "Draw"

The scout picked up a branch and scratched it on the ground.

The Qing army camp is on the bank of the Beiyang River 20 miles north of Qingzhou City, Linzi is only more than 30 miles in a straight line in its southwest direction, along the dry Zihe River all the way south to the Taigong Lake under the city, the cavalry is fast for half an hour, slow for an hour to reach.

"If the governor crosses the river and sends troops to the northwest at this time, he speculates that he and the Tartars will meet here" The scout was familiar with the geography of a radius of dozens of miles, and the branches of the trees made a pit in the ground: a small village on the bank of the Zi River ten miles away from Linzi City.

"Topography" Chang Yu looked at the sketch on the ground with an expressionless face.

"The village is on the east bank of the Zihe River, there is no big forest, no livestock" The scout said concisely, Chang Yu nodded slightly: "Continue to investigate."

The scout was in a hurry, Chang Yu turned over his horse and looked back at the two thousand cavalry behind him: "This battle, the name is deboned, and it will be done according to death!" ”

"it!" The two thousand Ming troops shouted, and Chang Yu immediately ordered the soldiers and horses to cross the river.

"What does it mean to debon" Hao Shaoqi shouted the loudest, but he didn't understand what it meant, and asked Song Luoshu next to him in a low voice.

In short...... Hey, didn't the Overseer explain it, or did it as he died! "Song Luo still wanted to show off his books, but later he felt that it was too profound, and he didn't understand it.

"Okay, just get it according to death" Hao Shaoqi laughed and beat the horse to cross the river: "Lao Tzu is going to kill him and pick his bones, and then take the credit!" ”

"Hey, that's what it means! Song Luoshu laughed and said, he was originally an introverted person, but he had been with Hao Shaoqi for a long time, and his personality gradually let go.

At the same time, there was a panic in Linzicheng County, and the scouts came here to warn them while informing the little eunuchs, and when they heard that thousands of Tartar soldiers were about to attack, the big guys in the city were panicked and mixed with small excitement.

This sentiment is very contradictory, but it is completely understandable to Zou Fengji and Zhu Ci'an at this time, first of all, Zou Fengji of Linzi Zhi County, this is a very ambitious and practical official, since he took office, he began to repair enemy buildings and build forts, and greatly improved the fortifications of the city.

But after repairing the psychology, it is still not steady, to be precise, it is not calm, and I have a little out-of-the-ordinary idea, always thinking that there will be an enemy army to attack it and test the defensive ability of the fortifications.

As for Zhu Ci'an, not to mention, he is a good character to fight and kill, always fantasizing about commanding thousands of troops and horses to sweep the world, and if he has nothing to do, he will take a group of family members to play dry to quench his thirst, a few days ago he participated in a small ambush with Chang Yu, and he was really excited for many days, and he always felt that it was not enjoyable.

One is that the local parents want to earn political achievements, and the other is the son of Qingzhou Hengwang who wants to satisfy his hunger and become famous, so he hit it off and did it!

On the march and fighting, both of them are rookies, but defending the city is different from fighting without having to work hard face to face, the two are still full of confidence, after all, the city fortifications are strong, and the second is that there are three hundred veterans and thousands of wounded soldiers in the city, and they are experienced in war.

So, after getting the alarm, the two immediately mobilized the strength of the whole city, the soldiers and towns bravely went to the city, the people were on standby as logistics, and the whole city was ready to fight a battle to defend the city.

Sharpening knives and waiting for rabbits, at the head of the city, Zhu Ci'an and Zou Fengji's eyes were shining, but they could also see that they were very nervous, and some of the officials and gentry around them did not look forward to the two of them, and whispered with sad faces, did Qingzhou know that they would come to help?

In the north of the city, several horsemen came quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they reached the city, and raised their heads and shouted: "His Royal Highness, there is a fight in the north, and Qingzhou has sent troops to stop the Tartar ......."

What the hell, I've got my pants off, you show me this......

Zhu Ci'an and Zou Fengji were relieved when they heard the news, but they were more disappointed, but everyone around them was excited and carnival......

Everyone was hoping that the Tartars would not come, but they had no one to regret.

The knife is sharpened, it is not used, the gun carriage is good, and it cannot be fired...... Zhu Ci comforted the artillery at the head of the city and sighed slightly: "Why did the reinforcements come so quickly!" ”

Zou Fengji smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's all to blame on the lower officials."

"Where did Zou Zhixian say this?" Zhu Ci'an asked suspiciously.

"The name of the lower official is auspicious, and the evil turns into auspiciousness......" Zou Fengji is a serious way.

Zhu Ci'an was stunned, and then laughed, this little old man is usually serious, but now he has learned to shake off his burden: "Then the chief soldier of Shanxi is called Zhou Yuji, but he has won and lost half of his life."

Zou Fengji shrugged: "He is a military general, and if he doesn't die, he will be lucky."

"Hey, no wonder people say that civil officials have two mouths, no matter how they say it, it makes sense" Zhu Ci'an sighed, raised his head and looked into the northwest distance, but the trees were lush and blocked, and he couldn't see the battle situation over there?

"Do you know who the reinforcements are?" Zhu Ci'an asked the scouts in the city loudly.

I don't know, the scout replied, but there are heavily armored soldiers, and it is estimated that they are the brothers of the four battalions under the command of the overseer.

"Perhaps, it is possible that the Overseer himself will join the battle," a veteran of the city chuckled as he looked into the distance.
