Chapter 142: The Great Army Arrives
Cheng Xiaolian was discussing in a mansion in Mengyangcheng, when suddenly Yang Youcai came over: "There is news." ”
This mansion is one of the families that will not be destroyed, of course Cheng Xiaolian will not fight the idea of the city lord's mansion, so he chose this place as a temporary mansion, there are many emerging families in the city above the lobby, they are willing to serve, both sides are beneficial, of course Cheng Xiaolian has no opinion.
It's just that in front of these people, Yang Youcai can't say that the news came from the royal capital, if someone with a heart records it and reaches the royal capital, the lives of the two brothers will be in danger.
Cheng Xiaolian nodded: "That's all for today's discussion, although I am not very old, but please rest assured, what I have said always counts, you have given me help, I will naturally give back to everyone benefits, of course, if someone thinks that I am young and wants to bully me, everyone has seen the fate of those families." ”
Several people responded in unison: "General, please rest assured, we are all businessmen, and we will never get along with money. ”
After saying that, these people retreated, Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "I like to deal with these businessmen the most, as long as you give them silver, there is nothing that can't be done." ”
Yang Youcai snorted and laughed: "As they said, the silver is still Burmese, but His Highness still has to prevent the Burmese from handing them silver." ”
Cheng Xiaolian nodded: "They are only responsible for procurement, and they will not let them take over the core, and the grain and grass must also be carefully inspected, but don't let others put any laxatives or the like in it, which will affect the morale of the army." ”
Generally, grain and grass are not poisoned, which is not so simple as it is said to poison grain and grass, but it is a simple thing to add some other ingredients to make people who have eaten diarrhea.
Yang Youcai nodded: "Your Highness, don't worry, these things are all handled by my subordinates, their eyes are poisonous, and if the poisoning methods are not magical, they can't hide the eyes of Jinyiwei." ”
As he spoke, he handed over a letter: "This is a letter from Avacheng, from the Burmese python." ”
In order not to expose the identity of Ruan Qingting, they never said this name, and according to Cheng Xiaolian's opinion, they directly gave him a code name, Burmese Python.
Cheng Xiaolian took the letter, his face was a little unpleasant: "Ava City has decided to send troops." ”
Yang Youcai was stunned for a moment: "How many people?" ”
"Thirty thousand. The leader of the army is said to be the absolute henchman of the Burmese king python Mengzi, as well as their Burmese special force, the Elephant Army. ”
Yang Youcai smiled bitterly: "We can't beat ten by ourselves." ”
Cheng Xiaolian glanced at him: "There are a few more good news. ”
"Your Highness, speak quickly."
"These 30,000 people only have one month's grain and grass, and the rest has to rely on the people's grain."
Yang Youcai scratched his head: "What kind of good news is this?" ”
"The problem is that they have already requisitioned grain once when they conquered Mubang City."
Yang Youcai's eyes lit up: "Your Highness is saying?" ”
"That's right, their 30,000 people's food can't last long, this is one of them, and if they collect too much, there will inevitably be chaos in the rear. Moreover, the Burmese python also decided to give us a gift. ”
"It's useless for us to ask for any gold, silver and jewelry now, so it's better to send some soldiers."
"That's right, he sent a team of men."
Seven days later, the vanguard army of Burma arrived at the city of Meng, the defenders of Mengdai City had 1,000 people, led by Zhai Songjin, Mengdai was a small city, not a border city, and the city wall was not very tall, so although the vanguard army was only 5,000 people, they still wanted to take it in one go.
It has been a while since Cheng Xiaolian captured Xianli, and the troops have been continuously transported from Xianli to Mengyangcheng, and now there are 3,000 defenders in Mengyangcheng, but compared to the Burmese army, it is still the existence of the mantis arm.
Hearing that the vanguard army had arrived at Mengdai City, Cheng Xiaolian hurriedly led people out of the city and set up camp next to Mengdai City.
Before the arrival of the army, they must frustrate the vanguard ranks, or it will be very uncomfortable for them to be united.
The vanguard of the Burmese army was a disciple of Lord Shoufu, named Qi Ling, who was both civil and military, and according to Nguyen Thanh Ting's letter, this person was very difficult to deal with.
So Cheng Xiaolian gave up the idea of stealing the camp, and stealing the camp in front of an excellent general was undoubtedly a gift to others.
Early the next morning, the war drums of the Burmese army sounded and began to attack the city, Cheng Xiaolian looked at the position of the Burmese army, 2,000 people were guarding on the side, I was afraid that Cheng Xiaolian and the two thousand people would pounce on it to block it, and the other 3,000 people began to attack the city.
These soldiers are all elites near the royal capital of Burma, and they are not comparable to the miscellaneous soldiers under Fu Yu.
However, Zhai Songjin was very relaxed: "My Lao Tzu is a famous man who guards the city, if it wasn't for the lack of manpower, maybe who fought whom?" When his son naturally can't fall into the prestige of Lao Tzu, he has already told Cheng Xiaolian that he can fight how he wants, and he can hold on to the city for at least three days. ”
Meng Dynasty City is their newly laid city, the people's hearts are not here, not the process of filial piety has already thought of a way, in the city to put cloth and silver, participate in the defense of the city for a day, if you die, a piece of cloth three taels of silver, if not dead, a zhang of cloth thirty copper coins.
What the people in the city think is that as long as they go up and stand for a day, they can have so many things without killing people, and as long as the city can be guarded for two days, then it will be two zhang cloth and sixty yuan, and who is unwilling to ask for the silver that flies in? When the city is broken, and they all hide in their homes to sleep, who can trouble them?
So they all rushed to the head of the city, but there was a general guarding the city, and they were all verified, as long as they were young and strong. In the end, 500 people were collected. also made people regret it, only blaming their parents for not giving birth to a big tall one
The Burmese generals under the city were not very optimistic when they saw this scene: "This small city of Mengdai, I heard that it has only been taken for less than 30 days, how can the people be attached to it, and all the people will come up to help them?" Could it be that they have some demon magic that they can't do? ”
The adjutant general beside him glanced at the city head with disdain: "Just this small city wall, the last general can be crushed by riding an elephant, and all the people who defect to the thieves are killed, why bother General Lao?" ”
This general is none other than Qi Ling, a disciple of the Burmese Shousuke, and he waved his hand: "There is no problem for us to take down this city, the key is to take this city and the next city, is it possible that we will slaughter the cities one by one?" Send it back, and we don't have to hang our heads around our necks! ”
Speaking of this, he glanced behind him: "Let those who have committed crimes go up and test it, and see what is true in the city." ”
