Chapter 223: Attacking the Heart

Just when Ma Harrier was shouting at the top of his voice, Wu Sanfu had already led the supervisor Li Gonggong to rush over.

Wu Sanfu has been holding his breath recently, and he was pressed by his eldest brother and second brother in Liaodong, and finally found this opportunity, and when he arrived in Shandong, he was just about to improve, but he was actually turned around by the ghost master Kong Youde's abandoned pawns, and he failed to complete Xu Changqing's task for more than two months.

How could the arrogant Wu Sanfu endure it?

In the matter of targeting the ghost master, Wu Sanfu was even more attentive than Xu Changqing.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of today's plan, he invited Gonggong Li out of Zhanhua City last night, and he didn't have to wait until the city gate was opened in the morning before leaving the city.

Seeing that Gonggong Li and his entourage rushed over, Xu Changqing didn't bother to pay attention to the horse harriers on the city gate building, and hurriedly smiled and stepped forward: "Father-in-law, I haven't seen you for a few days, you are more prosperous in the past." ”

Gonggong Li is in his forties, and he has been honed in the palace for most of his life, and finally mixed up with the Son of Heaven to serve, what kind of person is this?

Even if his legs were a little weak on this battlefield, he still held on, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhongyi, the miscellaneous family has always hated the bad bully of Liujiabao, and today, it is also a great honor to witness Zhongyi Uncle personally leading the strong army to eliminate harm for the people." ”

Talking to smart people is to save trouble, Xu Changqing and Gonggong Li glanced at each other, and couldn't help but smile.

Xu Changqing hurriedly greeted the soldiers around him and said: "Come on, quickly take your father-in-law to the Chinese army to rest, and you must ensure the safety of your father-in-law." ”

"Yes!"

The pro-soldiers hurried to ask Gonggong Li to go to the safest Chinese army.

Gonggong Li was waiting for Xu Changqing's words, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Uncle Zhongyi, the miscellaneous family wants to fight side by side with Uncle Zhongyi, but this body is really not when he was young." Zhongyibo, the miscellaneous family is in the Chinese army, waiting for Zhongyibo to return triumphantly. ”

sent away Gonggong Li, Xu Changqing, Wu Sanfu, Zhao Zengjin, Xu Xiu, Zhang Dagong, Li Zhu and others, this is the focus on the city of Liujiabao.

At this time, the horse harrier had already shouted seven or eight times at the top of his throat, and his throat was a little smoky.

At this time, no more than in later generations, there were microphones and amplifiers.

The distance between the two sides was nearly 200 steps, 300 meters smaller, and if they wanted each other to hear their voices, they could only tear their throats and shout.

Seeing that Xu Changqing and the others didn't take themselves seriously at all, the equally arrogant horse harrier's lungs were about to be blown up.

Even if Xu Changqing has some merits, is he a ball?

When he Ma Harrier followed Mao Shuai to work with Tartar in the Dongjiang River, this milk baby was still eating in his mother's womb, and now, he dared not to take his horse harrier in his eyes like this?

The harrier's eyes narrowed vigorously, and his hands were clenched into fists.

However, even if he was about to reach the peak of anger, he did not lose his calm, which was also the most critical factor for him to survive the battlefield back then and win the trust of the ghost master, so as to achieve this position at this time.

As the sky gradually brightened, Ma Harrier suddenly found that Xu Changqing did not have many men, and there were less than 2,000 people on the frontal battlefield, and according to his experience, he could easily judge that these 2,000 people, not to mention half of the auxiliaries, were about the same.

And in his Liujia Fort, there are more than 700 or nearly 800 people at this time.

This seems to be that Xu Changqing has more people, but Xu Changqing does not have a heavy weapon like artillery, which means that it is his horse harrier who has the advantage.

This powerful city power is impossible for even a Tartar to surpass!

If, if he can intercept Xu Changqing's attack here, he will even ...... Xu Changqing can be killed by means, what will it be like?

The more he thought about it, the more Ma Harrier felt that the chances of success in this matter were extremely high, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly with excitement.

After a moment, Ma Harrier said coldly in a hoarse voice: "Greet all the masters, according to the previous arrangement, everyone enters the predetermined position to defend!" Xu Changqing, this dog thief doesn't have artillery, he can't do anything about us! As long as he can defend Xu Changqing's attack, the ghost master will definitely not hesitate to reward everyone! Perhaps, everyone can mix thousands of households, or even garrison and guerrilla. ”

The order was quickly communicated.

Although these bandits are afraid of the encirclement and suppression of the official army, they have been used to it for many years, and they are not so afraid that it is impossible to resist.

It's just that they suffered Xu Changqing's big loss before, which made them have some psychological shadows, and they couldn't get out for a while.

At this time, as the horse harrier's very demagogic order was conveyed, the bandit capital was a little excited, and they began to draw a big pie for the minions below.

This made many bandits at the head of Liujiabao City quickly excited and their morale was high.

I have to say that Ma Harrier is still quite capable, after all, he is a person who has been an official and worked with Tartar in Liaodong, and his arrangement at the head of the city is very reasonable.

Each bandit leader with his men oversaw the defense of a section of the wall, and he coordinated in the middle, relying on his core to control the overall situation, while also acting as a reserve.

This kind of arrangement may sometimes be very difficult to make in the official army, it is easy to be varied, and it is difficult to reconcile the mouths, although there is also this problem among the bandits, but because of the careful training of the horse harrier before, it has achieved certain results, and there is the name of the ghost master and the big profits, and the situation in the fort is soon controlled by the horse harrier.

Just waiting for Xu Changqing's sons to come forward and bleed.

The position of Xu Changqing's troops under the city.

Seeing that the city was soon crowded with people, hanging hanging houses, supporting rolling wood and stones, and many battlements were sticking out of the mouths, Xu Changqing's eyes were also slightly frowned.

No wonder Ma Harrier was pushed out by the ghost master, this guy does have some means, but he really looked down on him before.

However, even if Ma Harrier armed Liujiabao like a hedgehog, it was an earthen fort after all, and it was impossible to openly violate the ban of the imperial court to purchase artillery, let alone large artillery.

This is doomed, no matter how strong Liujiabao is, he can only be a hedgehog, and it is difficult to cause too much damage to Xu Changqing and his sons.

After a moment, Xu Changqing suddenly smiled: "Go, find a few soldiers with loud voices, question Ma Harrier's affairs in Cangzhou, and add some material to him by the way." ”

"Yes!"

Soon, a dozen soldiers with loud voices who had been specially selected began to rush under the breastwork at the front and shout at the gate tower.

"Ma Harrier, you wicked executioner, murderer, not only openly rebelled against the imperial court, gathered crowds in Cangzhou to attack my Ming official army, but also burned, killed and looted on weekdays, and did all kinds of evil! Fortunately, my family is handsome and benevolent, and now quickly lay down your weapons and surrender to spare your dog's life, otherwise, the army will be dispatched, and you will definitely be wiped out. ”

"Harrier, your end has come! Brothers of Liujiabao, if anyone can tie up the leader of the bandit Ma Harrier now, not only will he not die, but he can also make meritorious contributions, reward hundreds of households, and reward 1,000 taels of silver! ”

"Harrier ......"

These shouts have been carefully instructed by Zhao Zengjin and Wu Sanfu, there is truth in the truth, and there is truth in the false, when they converge in the middle, they mainly shout the words of the horse harrier, but when they disperse to both sides, they start to black the horse harrier again.

The harrier is portrayed as a heinous bandit leader, and the others seem to be able to survive if they surrender.

This suddenly made the head of Liujiabao City chaotic.

These bandits are indeed not good people, but if they have a choice, who wants to live such a life of licking blood from the knife edge and always precarious?

I don't dare to tell my parents about this kind of profession, let alone a child.

"Bastard, vile, shameless!"

"Xu Changqing, you despicable villain, my surname Ma is incompatible with you! Come on, come on, shoot all these big tongues to Lao Tzu! ”

The horse harrier was actually also focused on by these shouts, and was tyrannical like a hungry wolf for a while.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Soon, there were old bandits at the head of the city who began to fire arrows to suppress the shouting soldiers.

It's a pity that these soldiers are hiding behind the strong breastwork, this primitive way of attacking them does no harm at all, they can only oppress behind the breastwork and continue to shout harder, and the city can still hear it.

This made the horse harrier almost crazy, and he wanted to plug everyone's ears for a while.

However, this is certainly not realistic.

However, Ma Harrier was not slow to react, and soon gathered hundreds of bandits with loud voices, scolding Xu Changqing's side, and wanted to suppress the voices of Xu Changqing's children in this way.

For a while, all kinds of foul language came from the two sides.

At this time, a personal soldier came over quickly and respectfully reported to Xu Changqing: "Commander, the catapults are ready." ”

Xu Changqing nodded: "Let the sons and daughters in front shout together and ask about Ma Harrier's affairs in Cangzhou!" Give him an ultimatum, he still has a cup of tea time! ”

"Yes!"

Soon, dozens of loud voices were added to the front, and everyone shouted together, questioning the attack of the horse harrier in Cangzhou, and issuing an ultimatum.

This kind of uniformity soon suppressed the chaos of the bandits at the head of the city, and also made the bandits who were a little restless begin to be a little frightened again.

Officers and soldiers, are you going to attack?

Zhang Jisheng, who was located on the east side of the city gate building, couldn't help but get nervous, and swallowed hard to saliva.

Although he hadn't been to Cangzhou before, and he hadn't really seen the martial arts of Xu Changqing and his sons, he knew a lot about Xu Changqing's beheading of slaves in the Liaodong Formation.

Even, his favorite thing is to go to the teahouse in Zhanhua City in the morning while drinking tea while listening to Mr. Storyteller's joke about Xu Changqing.

At this time, although Xu Changqing hadn't really done anything yet, he suddenly figured it out, thinking that Xu Changqing was the first fierce general of the Ming Dynasty, and he went from a chief flag officer to the current Zhongyi Uncle by virtue of his military exploits, how could it be just luck.

Zhang Jisheng already had a retreat in his heart.

He shouted and shouted at his minions not to be misled, but he quietly began to retreat, and soon retreated to the side of the stairs.

The rest of the bandit leaders were basically one action, and they didn't have enough courage to face Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing and the generals around him soon discovered the commotion in the city, and Wu Sanfu couldn't stop being excited: "Dashuai, it's almost time to attack, the bandits' hearts are already in chaos!" ”

Xu Changqing slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, but shook his head with a smile: "Don't worry, wait." I can't eat hot tofu if I'm in a hurry. ”

"Forehead ......"

Wu Sanfu was a little speechless, but he had already understood Xu Changqing's methods at this time, and he didn't dare to hold it up, so he could only suppress the excitement in his heart first.

In a short time, the sky had gradually brightened, and some soldiers quickly rode over to report, and more than ten miles to the south, they found a cavalry force in Zhanhua City, about more than 100 people, more than 200 horses, and a force of 7 or 800 officers and soldiers, were rushing towards this side.

The corners of Xu Changqing's mouth couldn't help but show a crooked smile.

I thought that the ghost master could endure it any longer, but at this time, he couldn't help it!

Xu Changqing was not in a hurry, until the sound of horses' hooves sounded not far away, and a group of cavalry was approaching quickly, and after approaching the defensive earthen wall at the rear of the camp, Xu Changqing waved his hand: "General order Zhang Dagong and Li Zhu, let's start!" By the way, don't hit more people, hit less people. ”

"Huh? Be! ”

Although the pro-soldiers didn't understand what Xu Changqing meant, they still conveyed it accurately.

The slingshot bearers, who had been waiting for a long time, lit their fuses one after another under the orders of the officer, and swept the flowering bullets that had been improved several times directly into the sky.
