Chapter 103: The Enemy Army Strikes (Ask for Recommendation Votes)

Linxian city wall.

Liu Honggradually stood on the city wall in silver light armor, and behind him stood Yan Yingyuan, Chang Yu and others, all with a dignified look on their faces.

Linxian is a small city, and the city wall is only more than zhang, and some of the city walls are not made of bluestone.

Play Dafa!

"Is there still no news from the Xuanfu?" Liu Hong gradually said to Chang Yu behind him.

As early as a few days ago, after learning about the specific deployment situation in Shanxi, Liu Hongjian had an idea about Shanxi.

Liu Hong gradually ordered Chang Yu to send three teams of heralds, one team went straight to Xuanfu Town, and notified Wei Penghong, the chief soldier of Xuanfu Town, to lead the department to help suppress, and one team went straight to the capital with Liu Hongji's Song Shu and handed over the Song Shu to Li Banghua, the secretary of the Ministry of War.

The other team went to Shanhaiguan, the farthest part, and ordered Tang Feng, the new general of Shanhaiguan, to lead 20,000 iron horsemen to help.

The requisition of the army is a major matter, although Liu Hong is gradually confident that even if he does not report, Chongzhen will not reprimand him, but it is inevitable that he will be criticized, but he knows the power of the imperial historians in the imperial court who are full of food and have nothing to do.

In order to punish corruption and lawlessness, Zhu Chongba specially gave these officials the right to hear about things.

The so-called hearsay is a lawsuit, and if anyone is not pleasing to the eye, he will make a small report, saying that Lao Tzu is meritorious, even if he is wrong, it is fine, it is originally a rumor, who knows if it is really fake.

These people are now typical keyboard warriors, quick for a while, lest others not know about his existence, and who will spray whom!

But the Ming Dynasty's speech officials are better than the keyboard warriors of later generations, because the speech officials are organized and disciplined, and today Zhang Sanshang said that Wang Er Mazi plotted illegality, and the emperor did not believe it.

It doesn't matter, tomorrow Li Si will play again and say that Wang Er Mazi is corrupt and bribery, but the emperor still doesn't believe it, and the day after tomorrow, Wang Wu, Zhao Liu, and Ma Qi will go into battle again.

Even if this Wang Er Mazi did not commit any crimes, the emperor would inevitably mumble in his heart, and in the end, he would dismiss the official at the least, and go to play chess with the king of Hades.

The officials won, praised the emperor and the sage, and everyone enjoyed themselves happily and continued tomorrow.

In later generations, there are clouds, and Ming died in party disputes, and there are also clouds, and Ming died in speech officials, which can be seen.

Liu Honggradually believed that Li Banghua would definitely be able to go straight to the Holy Hearing when he received his recital, as long as Emperor Chongzhen knew about this in advance, then even if those imperial historians shouted again, Chongzhen would definitely not believe it.

Moreover, Shanxi and Shaanxi have fallen into the hands of the bandit army for several years, and with Chongzhen's eagerness for quick success, as long as he explains the situation here, Chongzhen will definitely support him unconditionally.

After the battle of Shanhaiguan, Liu Hongjian has established WeChat in the border army, and there will be no problems with Shanhaiguan's order to transfer troops.

The most important thing and what worries Liu Hong the most is Wei Penghong, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, not that Wei Penghong is unreliable, in fact, this person is also a ruthless person.

Last year, after Li Zicheng destroyed Datong Mansion, he wanted to take the important town of Xuanfu next to Datong by the way, but the defenders of Xuanfu Town were only more than 10,000, and Li Zicheng sent his general Hao Shaoqi to storm Xuanfu with 40,000 horses.

Hao Shaoqi's original name was Hao Yongzhong, and he got this nickname because he raised the flag and charged, and he was the second most fierce general under Li Zicheng, but Hao Shaoqi stormed Xuanfu for five days, and he didn't even go up the city wall, and finally had to give up.

At that time, the general soldier of Xuanfu Town was not Wei Penghong, but An Yi Bogao entered the warehouse, this guy was timid and wanted to open the door to dedicate the city, and was beheaded by Wei Penghong, the then Xuanfu staff general, and finally led the army to defend Xuanfu.

Chongzhen not only did not blame Wei Penghong for killing the Ming nobles, but with a stroke of the pen, he helped Wei Penghong right.

Although Liu Hongchuan is the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan and the governor of Jiliao, Xuanfu Town is far outside the jurisdiction of the governor of Jiliao, and Wei Penghong is a well-known dead-eyed man who only recognizes the emperor alone.

Even though Liu Honggradually brought the sword of Shang Fang given by the emperor to the sentinel who delivered the letter, he still beat the drum in his heart.

From Zhending Prefecture to the capital more than 600 miles, the fastest light ride takes two and a half days, from Xuanfu Town to Linxian County is also 600 miles, now more than five days have passed, but Xuanfu still has no news.

The sentinels who delivered the letter were all the best among the scouts selected by Chang Yu, and they would definitely not waste time on the road, could it be Wei Penghong......

Standing on the city, Liu Hongjian could already see the smoke and dust rolling in the distance, and his brows furrowed even deeper.

"Chang Yu, have all the soldiers in the department been arranged? It is necessary to ensure that there are troops deployed around the city, and not to be biased into one corner! ”

"My lord, according to your orders, two thousand strong men have been selected from Lincheng to be responsible for carrying thunder stones and rolling wood, and all the soldiers of the Thousand Households of Banzai Mountain, including cavalry and firehead troops, a total of 2,212 people, have gone to the city wall to participate in the defense of the city!

But...... There are still insufficient troops, and only one person can defend within four steps of the city wall! ”

Chang Yu hesitated, but still reported the truth.

Liu Hong gradually looked left and right, except for the eight hundred Guanning Iron Cavalry brought from Shanhaiguan, the rest were all teenagers who had followed him from the capital to Shanhaiguan.

After the baptism of the Battle of Shanhaiguan, these teenagers have matured a lot and are used to war, some are armed with bows and crossbows, some are armed with spears, and all of them look at the enemy soldiers in the distance with serious faces.

The soldiers of the AKM Baihu Office were evenly distributed around the city wall, and they had received Liu Hongji's order that in today's battle, they could turn on the burst fire mode, and everyone was surrounded by magazines with bullets, which made them extremely excited.

Even at the risk of damaging the firearms, the city must be defended, at least until reinforcements arrive, otherwise everyone will die.

Come on! Let me see if you Yuan Zongdi is powerful, or if my Long Live Mountain Thousand Households is powerful!
