Chapter 144: Precarious

"Quickly summon Wu Yong, Wang Jin and others to discuss the matter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Although Guan Cheng is attacking Muping County, Shan has not directly killed Huang County, and he still has time. Luo Gan hurriedly asked Chen Xi to call his subordinates to come to discuss the matter.

"No!"

Chen Xi is a personal soldier appreciated by Luo Gan, and he is still very clever, so he naturally knows who Luo Gan's subordinates are.

Soon, Wu Yong, Chao Gai, Wang Jin, Tai Shici, Song Wan, Du Qian, Tang Long, and Pei Xuan came to the meeting hall.

As soon as everyone arrived, Luo Gan informed everyone of the matter.

Chao Gai said angrily: "Any cat or dog dares to come against us, lord, a certain is willing to lead 3,000 troops to sweep away the management." "When conquest of Beigong Boyu, Chao Gai was sent to Dongjun by Luo Gan. I didn't participate, which is a pity. When Guan Sheng and Yun Tianbiao went on the expedition before, he also wanted to go, but Luo Gan didn't arrange for him.

Now that he has a chance, Chao Gai is naturally the first to ask for battle.

Tai Shi Ci thought for a moment and said, "Lord, this Guan Cheng is a native of Changguang of our Donglai County. His people once mobilized more than 3,000 people in Changguang County to respond to the horned yellow scarf, but they were later defeated by the imperial court. But Guan Cheng escaped from Donglai with many people and became pirates. Today, however, it is not to be underestimated. ”

Wang Jin was a little worried: "My lord, we and other county soldiers have only recruited 6,000 soldiers and horses, and now Yun Sima has taken 3,000 people and Guan Duwei has taken 1,000 people. Now there are only 2,000 people in the barracks. And the urgent report said that there were five or six thousand people in the tube. Our army is short of troops, do you ask the imperial court for help, or ask for help from the Beihai Taishou? ”

Now the faces of everyone in the council hall are a little worried. The total number of traitors in the three roads is nearly 20,000 people, and Donglai County only has 6,000 soldiers and horses.

Seeing that everyone was a little worried, Luo Gan snorted coldly, slapped the table, and said loudly: "Why do you need to ask for help, it's just some rabble." With only five or six thousand pirates, what is there to fear? Everyone listened to the order, and Ben Taishou personally went out on horseback, and you were ready to go with me. ”

"I'm willing to follow the lord to put down the rebellion!" Everyone felt the pride on Luo Gan's body, and immediately said in unison.

"Okay, Tai Shici, Chao Gai, Song Wan, and Du Qian will go with me!" Luo Gan began to point to the general.

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes! Yes, sir! ”

The expedition is required, but it is also necessary for someone to stay in the Taishou Mansion, and Luo Gan does not need to think about it directly.

"Wu Yong is responsible for handling the daily affairs of the Taishou Mansion and is responsible for logistics supply, and Wang Jin leads five hundred elite soldiers to guard Donglai. Pei Xuan strengthened the supervision of all officials, who dared to collude with the rebels when Ben Taishou was in turmoil, or those who took the opportunity to make trouble, killed! Tang Long was responsible for the supply and refurbishment of the armament. Luo Gan arranged.

"No!" Wu Yong, Wang Jin, Tang Long, and Pei Xuan responded in unison.

"Immediately reorganize the army, Chao Gai will lead 500 people as the vanguard, and the rest of you will lead 1,000 soldiers and horses with me as the rear army. Two hours later, send troops to exterminate Guan Cheng! Let's get ready! Luo Gan waved his hand and ordered.

After everyone saluted Luo Gan, they went to their own places to prepare.

Two hours later, Chao Gai led 500 military horses out of the east gate and headed for Muping County. A quarter of an hour later, Luo Gan was also wearing white armor, with a white horse under his crotch, holding a spear, and leading the troops to set off. Tai Shici, who was following Luo Gan, also used an iron spear, but there were two halberds behind him, and there was a treasure carving bow hanging immediately.

Behind Luo Gan is a big flag, with the word "Luo" written on it, and the big flag is carried by two people with a height of one zhang. It was King Kong Song Wanhe in the clouds who touched the heavens. These two people are not good at martial arts, but they are tall, so it is very suitable for the two of them to carry the flag, and they can also give Luo Gan a strong momentum.

Song Wan and Du Qian knew their own skills, they had been placed in Liangshan by Luo Gan before, and now they had the opportunity to follow the lord to go on the expedition, so they were naturally very happy. And no matter how you say this anti-big banner, it is to always follow behind your lord, and the status is different after all.

Luo Gan's march arrived at Muping County in less than a day, after all, Muping County was next to Huang County. Therefore, it is also the most threatening of the three traitors to Huang County, and it will also be the first to fight.

"Report, my lord. Guan Cheng pirates were about to break through Muping County, and Chao Xianfeng asked for orders to attack the pirates and rescue Muping County. "Chao Gai sent a herald to ask for his life.

Luo Gan drove his horse to a high ground and looked towards Muping County.

I saw that five miles away, a pirate of about five or six thousand was attacking the county seat of Muping. Probably because these pirates attacked from the coast, they didn't have any siege weapons in their hands, such as battering rams, crashes and other siege weapons. And because Luo Gan sent Pei Xuan to inspect the counties many times, although not all the corrupt officials in the original counties have been cleared out, they have been checked like the county order and the county lieutenant, and they are not wine bags and rice bags.

Although the county commander and county lieutenant of Muping County are not talents, they are not incapable people. When Guan Cheng attacked the county seat, the county commander and the county lieutenant sent people to ask for help from Taishou on the one hand, and organized county soldiers and recruited strong people in the county town to defend the city.

In this way, although there are five or six thousand people in Guan Cheng, his own strength is not strong, and because of the desperate resistance of the county order and the county lieutenant. Muping County has held out until now, has not been breached, and is waiting for reinforcements.

After Luo Gan observed carefully, he found that Muping County had fewer soldiers after all, and the pirates had been attacking for a long time, if there were no reinforcements, Muping County might be breached in half an hour.

Luo Gan drove his horse and came down from a high place and said to everyone: "I see that pirate has more troops than my soldiers. However, he had been attacking Muping County for a long time and was already tired. Our onslaught will surely defeat the pirates! ”

"Lord, then give the order, Ci and Chao Xianfeng will kill together, and kill the pirates by surprise!" Tai Shi Ci asked for battle.

Luo Gan shook his head and said with a smile: "No hurry, no hurry." Let the soldiers rest for a while. When the pirates are about to break through the county seat, our army is suddenly killing, which will inevitably make the pirates even more frightened. The second is to let the soldiers get ready, just arrive, or rest. in order to exert the strongest combat power. Be careful to hide and keep the pirates from seeing. Our army is here to rescue and raid, and this time we want to defeat the pirates completely. ”

"Yes."

……

At the head of the city wall of Muping County, the county commander and the county lieutenant were holding spears to assassinate the pirates who climbed up to the city. The two of them gasped and looked very tired, but they clenched their spears in both hands, and rushed forward as soon as they saw a pirate coming up. It is also because of the leadership of the county order and the county lieutenant that other county soldiers can always hold on.

"County order, county order, when will the reinforcements arrive? We're getting fewer and fewer people, and I'm afraid we won't be able to stop these pirates. The county lieutenant asked worriedly.

The county commander frowned and commanded the others in the city to resist the pirates, and by the way, he looked at the dense pirates under the city, and comforted: "Don't worry, I have already asked the Taishou for help, calculate the time, the reinforcements sent by the Taishou should arrive." I'm waiting to hold on! When reinforcements arrive, the pirates will be defeated. ”

Although the county order said so, the county lieutenant was still very worried, fearing that they would die in battle if they could not hold on to the reinforcements of the Taishou.

But there is no way, he and the county commander are both from Muping County, and behind this city wall are their fathers and villagers, their own family members, children, and clans are all in the county seat. can only fight to the end, Guan Cheng had previously caused an incident in Donglai County and plundered the county seat. If they were to be killed in the city, their lives and possessions would be lost.

Guan Cheng waved the long knife in his hand under the city and threatened: "The county commander in the city should not open the city gate quickly and surrender to me." If we wait for me to break through the city, then the city will be broken and people will die, and there will be no chickens and dogs left. ”

"Bah, the dog thief, you are also from Donglai, why do you do evil in Donglai. Don't hurry up and retreat. Save the Donglai people to dig the ancestral grave of the Ru family, and curse the neighbors. The county order reprimanded Guan Chengdao.

"Guan Cheng, everyone is from Donglai, why do you want to kill each other, and quickly retreat! If you wait for the Taishou army to arrive, you will die without a place to be buried! The county lieutenant also threatened.

Guan Cheng was furious, and when he thought that there might be county soldiers coming to the rescue, he immediately shouted loudly: "Brothers, kill me!" Invade the city, choose food and goods, and women can grab and kill at will! (To be continued.) )
