It was only when I rushed to the Yimen that there were sporadic ringings in the hall of the county government opposite.

The guards immediately looked for concealment behind the gate and loaded their ammunition.

The Zhu family brother dragged Wang Gu's head out of the concealment, and several lead bullets flew past Wang Gu's ears. Frightened, the fat man hurriedly followed Su Chengyu's instructions and howled: "Tens of thousands of officers and soldiers have entered the city, and the entire army of Yu Wu has been annihilated, run away!" ”

After a round of guns on the opposite side, he was loading, and his hands were sluggish when he heard these words.

Su Chengyu took the opportunity to rush up against the pillars on both sides, and the guards were so frightened that they hurriedly rushed forward. Running more than ten steps away from the lobby, Su Chengyu poked his head out from behind the pillar, raised his gun and shouted: "Volley!" ”

Although the shooting was not very uniform, the concentrated fire of dozens of guns at such a close distance made the hearts of the people in the lobby tremble, and the moment when they were still firing the arrows was also dumb.

Shi Lin no longer dared to let Su Chengyu rush ahead, threw away his bow and arrows, drew his sword and shouted: "Follow me!" ”

More than thirty guards saw that their own commander was the first to rush forward, so they naturally fought bravely, put down their firearms, took out their blades, and rushed towards the lobby.

The clansman of Liu Guoxuan who was sent to Shi Lin was greatly impressed when he saw this, and said in his heart that this group of people is indeed fierce! No wonder they cleaned up several times the White Lotus Sect demon thieves. So he also shouted and drew his knife and followed.

The White Lotus Sect bandits who were defending the county government had just gotten up, and before they had eaten breakfast, they suddenly encountered someone attacking the lair, and they were in a hurry for a while, and they panicked.

I just heard Wang Gu say that tens of thousands of officers and soldiers have entered the city, and their morale is even more sluggish. Even though I am not sure that there are so many officers and soldiers, it is a fact that Master Wang, who has a high status in the sect, was captured, and this morale plummeted.

Demoralized troops are most afraid of a white-knuckle charge.

Shi Lin knew that it was extremely dangerous to rush in through the narrow main entrance of the lobby, and the people in ambush on both sides of the door could strike a fatal blow at anyone who rushed in at any time.

He rushed to the door, curled up and jumped in, rolled forward twice, and protected his whole body with a move of "night battle in all directions", so he dared to take the time to observe the surrounding situation, but saw that some of the forty or fifty people in the lobby were trembling with trembling hands and were charging firearms, some were trembling and looking out of the window, and some were holding knives at him in a daze.

He jumped up from the ground and shouted, "Kill! Frightened, the few people closest to him turned around and ran.

Then the guards who rushed in were like hungry tigers pounced on sheep, and instantly cut down the bandits near the gate.

The battle ended before it even began. After Su Chengyu loaded the pistol bullet and tightened the spring wheel, he looked up and saw that the lobby had been taken by his own people. In fact, there were only seven or eight White Lotus Sect members dead in the hall, but the remaining bandits had already collapsed, dropped their weapons, and fled towards the back hall in a swarm.

He waved his hand and continued to chase, "Find Ye Li!" Kill immediately when you see it! ”

Shi Lin still rushed to the front, and the group chased out of the lobby again.

The more than 10 bandits who had just formed a defensive formation near the second hall of the county government fled for their lives as if they were soulless, and immediately made up the scene of the officers and soldiers of the brigade pouring into the county office.

It happened that Wang Gu's shout came from afar, "Tens of thousands of officers and soldiers have entered the city...... so the people in the second hall immediately turned their heads and ran towards the back hall.

Ye Li knew that something was wrong when the cannon rang out at the city gate. Soon, a disciple came in a panic to report that the officers and soldiers had attacked the hall and were coming towards the back hall. He also said that tens of thousands of officers and soldiers were shouting outside that they were entering the city.

As a senior professional rebel, Ye Li quickly made a judgment, the offensive was swift and there were artillery, which had to be the main force of the Ming army.

It was only in his experience that he had only been in trouble for a few days, and with the low efficiency of the Ming army's assembly and mobilization, it would take at least a month to rush to Qingliu County, and by that time he had already controlled several nearby counties, with more than 10,000 troops.

But now the Ming army is so fast......

He hurriedly summoned more than a dozen disciples around him, took his blade and walked towards the back door, took a few steps and felt wrong, turned his head and ran towards the flower hall.

At the east gate of Qingliu County, the guards and bandits watched the carriages and horses transporting silver galloping away, and they had some doubts in their hearts. Turning his head and seeing that these people who were walking behind the car were wearing White Lotus Sect services, they were very angry, and they were about to interrogate, when Liu Guoxuan gave an order and led the clan to pounce bravely.

These people did not use firearms at all, they all spoke with knives and spears, and in a few moments more than 30 bandits near the city gate were cleared.

Then a bronze tiger cannon was lifted out of the carriage and set up at the city gate.

There were bandits in the city who saw that something was wrong at the east gate and hurriedly lit a fire to warn them. When Liu Guoxuan led people to rush to the city, they turned out to be these people, and the people of the White Lotus Sect in the distance saw the wolf smoke and rushed over.

The number of reinforcements was more than 100, but it was still far away, when a roar was heard at the city gate. An iron ball fell from the sky, although it only hit the unlucky ghost walking on the far right, but his body smashed by the cannonball splashed the bandits next to him, red with white and white with flesh. The incense people, who had entered the battlefield for the first time, immediately lay on the ground and vomited wildly.

Liu Guoxuan hurriedly poured gunpowder and pestle into the barrel of the cannon, but this time he did not load iron bullets but stuffed a large bag of stones and iron slag into the muzzle of the cannon, and then raised the tail of the cannon and changed it to flat fire.

Waiting for the White Lotus Sect reinforcements to run within thirty steps, Liu Guoxuan shot at the opponent's bird gun and ignited the tiger squat cannon to ignite the medicine. There was another roar, and suddenly the Heavenly Maiden scattered, the stones and iron slag collapsed everywhere, and the dozen or so White Lotus Sect members in the front row immediately wailed and fell to the ground.

Although this tiger squat cannon is only an old-fashioned small cannon of 40 catties, it has no chance of surviving if it is bombarded at a distance of more than 20 steps.

Liu Guoxuan took advantage of the other party's shock, and rushed forward with a knife, followed by the clan Yong, and in a few minutes, the White Lotus Sect's counterattack was cut back.

Liu Guoxuan led more than 60 people, relying on artillery to repel five or six attacks of the White Lotus Sect, although they were all covered in blood, they were still alive and alive!

The mobilization efficiency of the White Lotus Sect and bandits is not slow, but due to the lack of Ye Li's command, it has been in a mess, some say that they want to go to the county government to save the incense master, some say that they must block the city gate first, and some say that the officials and troops are in a hurry to run. Later, they fought separately, doing everything, and some people even ran to support the North City Gate, which had nothing to do at all.

Finally, when the White Lotus Sect organized a team of nearly 300 people to save the East Gate, more than 80 Liu Guoxuan clan warriors on foot finally arrived. At the beginning, Su Chengyu was in a hurry, but there were not enough horses, so these people could only walk, and now they had just arrived in Qingliu County.

They ran out of breath, but when they saw the city gate wide open, they knew that the "shopkeeper Su" had succeeded, so they immediately rushed into the city with a loud shout.

These people in the White Lotus Sect are not the opponents of Liu Guoxuan's brave clansmen at all, and once the tiger squat cannon sounds, dozens of Xiangmin's legs and feet tremble. When Liu Guoxuan led people to rush up with a scream, he killed the more than 300 bandits and fled in all directions without a cup of tea.

Liu Guoxuan immediately led people to the county office, and sent people along the way to spread the news that the 30,000-strong army of officers and soldiers was about to attack the city.

Some of the big clans in Qingliu County were extremely miserable by the White Lotus Sect, their homes were raided, and many people were even killed by the bandits. Although their homes were raided, their influence is still there.

At this time, when they heard that there were officers and soldiers attacking the city, these clans immediately organized themselves and prepared to receive the officers and soldiers. Soon, someone came to report that the east gate of the city had been breached by officers and soldiers, and the strength of these clans could no longer be suppressed, and the entire Qingliu County was boiling.
