(Today's chapter is presented, please collect and subscribe!!) )
Early in the morning, Abatai mobilized all the troops in his hands that could be mobilized to the city of Shunde, preparing to eliminate the new thorn in his eyes in one bite.
At this time, Li Zixiao also went to the west city wall of Shunde Mansion with the support of Chen Luo, the prefect Jia Wen, and his generals.
Shunde belongs to the city of Fu, the city wall is relatively high, his height is nearly four zhang, the width is two zhang, the appearance is wrapped with a large piece of green bricks, and the inside is filled with soil.
However, because the imperial court did not allocate funds to repair the city wall for a long time, the city wall of Shunde is still very dilapidated.
This situation is already very common in Daming at this time.
Li Zixiao ordered the artillery battalion to move all the tiger squat cannons and Fulong machine guns they carried with the army to the city of Shunde.
The tiger squat cannon is light in weight, easy to carry, but the power is not small, stuffed in the barrel of 50, or even hundreds of lead bullets, iron pellets, after the cannon is fired, a large piece is scattered.
Even if you don't have lead bullet or iron pellets, you can stick stones into them and shoot them out, and the power is still enough to kill the enemy.
When he arrived at the city wall of Shunde, Li Zixiao found that although there was a cauldron on the city wall every short distance, there was a fire burning underneath.
The black juice-like object inside the cauldron was constantly tumbling, and it could be smelled from afar, and a foul smell came to the face.
This is made of dung, commonly known as 'golden juice', and it is a sharp weapon for defending the city in the era of cold weapons.
On the city wall, every dozen steps, there is also a pile of rolling stone and sasswood, in Li Zixiao's view, the defense on the city wall of Shunde can be said to be in place.
Li Zixiao looked at Chen Luo, who had been following him without saying a word, and knew in his heart that the defensive forces on the city wall were so well arranged, it must be the credit of Chen Luo's soldiers and horses.
Li Zixiao thought secretly in his heart: "Liu Zhong is right, this Chen Luo is really a talent, if only he could get him under his command."
What I lack now is not a general who can take charge of himself? It's a pity that he can't come over in a short time.
Fortunately, there is still a relationship with Liu Chong, and there will always be opportunities in the future. ”
When Li Zixiao and the others finished inspecting the city wall, they heard a desolate horn sound outside the city.
"General Li, the Tartars are going to attack, and every time the Tartars are going to attack in the past two days, this kind of horn will be sounded."
Jia Wenru on the side grabbed Li Zixiao's arm, his face showed a look of panic, and his original reserved expression was gone.
Li Zixiao pulled his arm away without a smile, gently comforted Jia Wenru, and said: "Although Master Jia can rest assured, with Ben Hui, Shunde City will be safe and sound, and Tatar does not want to step into the city." ”
"Then the government entrusted the city defense of Shunde to General Li."
After listening to Li Zixiao's words, Jia Wenru's face looked a little better, and then immediately handed over the power of Shunde's city defense to Li Zixiao.
Li Zixiao was not polite, and after nodding, he immediately gave an order to the surrounding White Dragon Army generals.
He scattered the more than 3,000 soldiers and Minzhuang in the original Shunde city and deployed them to the four city walls.
He also divided the 2,000 soldiers of the White Dragon Army into four teams to guard the four city walls, and finally Li Zixiao left 1,000 soldiers as a mobile force.
These last 1,000 men are the fire brigades, which support everywhere when the war is unfavorable.
The White Dragon Army was mainly responsible for the defense of the city and fought against the Tartars, while the previous people were responsible for carrying things and saving the wounded.
The Tartars had not used all their strength to attack before, but they were just for show, and these Shunde garrisons and people could barely deal with it.
Once the Tartars move the real character and attack the city in an all-round way, these garrisons and people will not be able to be those Tartar soldiers like tigers and wolves.
Therefore, Li Zixiao directly let the White Dragon Army replace them and become the main force of the city defense, and those garrison soldiers and Minzhuang assisted the White Dragon Army.
Secondly, this time, Li Zixiao brought half of the bird gunners in the firepower battalion, plus the bird gunners who were 'trapped in the camp', and he had 800 bird gunners and more than 300 archers under him.
Li Zixiao arranged 300 archers and 500 bird gunners to several other city walls, leaving 300 bird gunners at the west gate, which he believed would be the main direction of the Tartar attack.
Just as Li Zixiao was deploying his troops, a Tartar soldier rushed out of the Tartar army's formation.
The Tartar army rode his horse and ran down the city, waving vigorously in his hand, signaling the Ming army at the head of the city not to shoot arrows.
When the Tartar soldier ran to the head of the city, fifty paces from the city wall, he rode his horse and retreated, and asked in a loud voice in Chinese to the city, "Which of you was the leading general of the Ming army yesterday?" ”
When everyone in the city heard this, they all moved their eyes to Li Zixiao's body, Li Zixiao smiled slightly, poked his head out of the battlement, and shouted coldly: "Ben Jiang is exact!" ”
"I don't know what the general's surname is, and what is his official position?"
"Hehehe!"
Li Zixiao laughed and said sarcastically: "Why, you want to know the name of the general, do you want to settle accounts with me in the future?"
You dog Tartar listened, this official Daming Yongcheng Tun army guerrilla Li Zixiao, your leader saw that you scumbags couldn't beat me, and sent you to surrender to me? ”
"Hahaha......"
As soon as Li Zixiao's words came out, everyone on the city wall burst into laughter.
Even the soldiers of the original Shunde Mansion looked at the newcomer General Li with admiration, and look, this is called domineering, and they dare to speak like this to the murderous Tartars.
"You...... You damn dog. ”
The Tartar soldiers under the city were trembling with anger by Li Zixiao's words, he pointed to Li Zixiao on the city wall, and scolded loudly: "If it weren't for our Lord Belle who cherishes you as a talent, we would have sent troops to chop you into meat sauce a long time ago."
The surname Li in the city, you listen, my Qing Dynasty values virtue and ability, and I will reward those who are virtuous and talented.
We spare Belle that you are a talent, and he said, if you are willing to surrender to my Qing Dynasty, our Lord Belle is willing to make you a second-class Lazhangjing.
If all the generals under your command are willing to submit together, they can also be given the rank of third-class Lazhangjing or Niulu Zhangjing.
If you dare to resist stubbornly, when my Qing warriors attack the city, they will definitely break you into thousands of pieces, and then wash Shunde City with blood, and there will be no chickens and dogs. ”
"Abatai actually wants to make me a second-class Lazhangjing?"
Li Zixiao sneered, it seems that the leader of the Tartars on the other side, Abatai, really attaches great importance to him, and the capital is not small!
The second-class Lazhangjing, at this time, the Qing State was equivalent to the position of a general in the Ming Dynasty, a well-known third-grade official, and equivalent to a military cadre in later generations.
Abatai's capital is not insufficient, and it is estimated that there will be this fatal attraction for ordinary Ming Dynasty generals, but for Li Zixiao, it is useless at all.
Li Zixiao doesn't have the habit of being a dog, and besides, the foundation of his White Dragon Army is completely in the Ming Dynasty, and it is thriving and has a good momentum of development.
Unless Li Zixiao's brain is in water at this time, he will run to be a dog for Tartar.
Hearing that the Tartar soldier under the city had made such a clear price to tempt Li Zixiao to surrender, everyone on the city wall looked at Li Zixiao with blank eyes, waiting for his decision.
Especially on Jia Wenru's shiny head, there were large beads of sweat, and Chen Luo's hand on one side had already pressed on the handle of the knife.
Li Zixiao snorted coldly and said loudly: "You go back and tell Abatai that the general is a dignified descendant of Yan Huang, and after Yao Shun, how can you take refuge in you, the wild boar skin that has just run out of the deep mountains and old forests!"
If you want Ben to surrender, you Tartars don't take any urine photos, do you have the ability? A group of subordinates are just defeated, and they dare to be arrogant!
As for you who want to break the city and carry out massacres, you have to ask the general first, and the three thousand tigers under the general, I'm afraid you don't have the ability. ”
"Hahaha......"
"Okay, General Li scolded well, happy!"
After listening to Li Zixiao's words, the soldiers and civilians on the city wall all laughed, and Jia Wenru shouted excitedly as if he had been amnestied.
The Tartar soldier under the city heard Li Zixiao's words clearly, and he was so angry that he almost fainted.
He pointed at Li Zixiao's hand, and it also became trembling, and shouted angrily: "You unknown Han dog, you wait, I will definitely report to Lord Belle, and after the city is broken, I will definitely break your body into ten thousand pieces!" ”
"Whew!"
Li Zixiao continued to be cheeky, righteous and awe-inspiring, and shouted: "Ben Jiangsheng is a person of the Ming Dynasty, and death is also the ghost of my Ming Dynasty."
You and other barbarians also want to recruit the general, so let's dream.
Not to mention just giving Lao Tzu a second-class Lazhangjing, that is, giving Lao Tzu the throne of your Emperor Taiji, Lao Tzu is not rare. ”
Li Zixiao simply shouted out this last sentence, and the voice spread far away, and many Tartars hundreds of steps away nearby heard Li Zixiao's words.
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, of course Li Zixiao wanted to show his loyalty to Daming, but in fact, when Li Zixiao said this, he didn't see Quartz and others holding back a smile!
It's a pity that the soldiers and civilians on the city wall of Shunde don't know Li Zixiao's true thoughts, but at this time, Li Zixiao's words still greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers and civilians in Shunde.
The soldiers on the city wall all showed a proud look on their faces, those barbarians outside the gate also wanted to come and surrender us, dream, they were willing to follow General Li to fight to the last drop of blood.
"You ignorant dog, you just wait to die!"
Seeing that there was no hope of persuading Li Zixiao to surrender, the Tartar cursed viciously and wanted to turn his horse back.
"Scolding Lao Tzu, how can you let this tartar leave so easily, quartz, give him a long memory."
Li Zixiao saw that the Tartar was leaving, his eyes were cold, and he said to the quartz behind him.
"Yes, General."
Quartz immediately understood what Li Zixiao meant, took the monk next to him and handed him an extra-large longbow, and opened the bow to shoot arrows.
Sou......
A loud sound of breaking the air, followed by the wailing of a war horse under the city.
I saw that the arrow of quartz directly hit the neck of the war horse that the Tartar was riding, and the war horse died directly, throwing the Tartar out.
"Ahh
The Tartar fell from his horse and let out a cry of pain, not fearing for his life.
But the disaster of this Tartar was not over, and there were two more sounds of breaking the air, and two more arrows were shot from behind, each hitting him in the shoulder.
"Very good, this general is a dignified general, how can a barbarian Tartar soldier be humiliated casually, if he doesn't want him to go back and pass the word to Abatai this time, he will directly take his life."
Seeing that Quartz had seriously injured the tartar, but had not taken his life, he smiled with satisfaction.
When the Tartar soldier with arrows in his shoulders and failed to persuade him to surrender, he endured the severe pain on his shoulders and returned to the camp of the Tartar army, he told Abatai about Li Zixiao's words 1510.
Even, he added fuel to the fire and deliberately said: "Rao Yu Belle, the Ming general surnamed Li, actually said that we are wild boar skins that have just come out of the deep mountains and old forests.
And he dealt me such a heavy hand, this is simply humiliating Lord Belle! ”
Abatai's face instantly turned from red to white, then from white to blue, and finally turned to purple, and he said angrily: "These Han dogs not only don't know how to lift, but also deceive people too much!" ”
At this time, a Mongolian prince on the side also took the opportunity to curry favor with Abatai, and roared indignantly: "My lord, you are right, those Han people are too deceitful.
Please give the order to attack the city, I am willing to take my men as the vanguard, but please also promise me that after the city is broken, I will not seal the sword for seven days. ”
The words of this Mongolian prince also resonated with many Tartar generals, and they interjected one after another: "Lord Belle, please give an order, after the attack, the sword will not be sealed within seven days!" ”
Abatai frowned, squinted at this Mongolian prince named Zuo Enluo, and said secretly in his heart: "I didn't see that this kid's heart is really ruthless."
After the city is broken, if the knife is not sealed for seven days, it is estimated that there will not be a few people left in Shunde City.
Didn't he know that only by capturing enough people and slaves would it be in the best interests of their Mongol tribes and my Qing Dynasty?
However, the Li Zixiao on the other side deceived me too much, and didn't give these Ming dogs some bloody lessons, they really thought that you and our Qing warriors were not good for the butcher's knife! ”
Abatai's expression turned a few times, and finally reached out from his waist and pulled out a carved arrow, with both hands forced, only to hear a "snap", and the carved arrow was suddenly broken into two.
Then, with a gloomy face, Abatai said to his Tartar generals: "Well, Benbel promises you that you will not be sealed for seven days after the city is broken, and all the captured materials will belong to the ministry, and now the ministry will begin to prepare for the siege of the city." ”
"Scum!"
When the Tartar generals heard Abatai's order, they all became excited.
One by one, they screamed, urging their respective subordinates, and attacked the west gate of Shunde.
Looking at the army of Tartars outside the city, they all moved, rushing towards the west gate, Li Zixiao's eyes were cold, knowing that the Tartars were annoyed and angry, and they were ready to attack.
"The whole army obeyed the order, the Tartars are about to launch a strong attack, this time the Tartars will no longer keep their hands, their attack will be extremely fierce.
But I believe in you, and I believe that you will be able to crush the Tartars' attack, and Ben will always be here, fighting with you until they are repulsed.
Brothers in Shunde, also think about your family, relatives and friends, and hundreds of thousands of Shunde fathers and elders are watching you in the city!
Let us fight side by side today, kill all the Tartars, don't take a step back, long live Daming! ”
Li Zixiao pulled out the sword on his waist, pointed to the sky, and roared loudly.
"Kill all the Tartars, don't take a step back, long live the Ming Dynasty, kill and kill!" The soldiers at the head of the city roared loudly, shaking the heavens and the earth.
