A small flag in charge of guarding the city gate was hiding in the shade of the city gate to rest, and was awakened by the sound of chaotic footsteps, stared, and shouted: "Who are you?" Someone's coming......"

Huang Mengjia slowed down, holding the gun in his right hand, swinging horizontally with his left arm, and the body of the gun resting on his left arm - the use of long guns and short guns is different, this is the posture that Xia Nan taught him - pulled the trigger. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The two sides are very close to each other, and the stopping effect of lead bullet is very noticeable. A gunshot rang out, and a hole was blown out of Xiaoqi's chest, and he didn't have time to snort, and he fell to the ground with his back to the sky, killing him on the spot.

The people who entered and exited the city gate immediately exploded and scattered. The special operations team did not pay attention to the fleeing civilians, but only searched for the soldiers who were wearing numbers.

There were not many soldiers at the door, and one of them saw that something was wrong, and he picked up a knife and wanted to resist, but he was also killed by a shot.

The veteran pulled the young soldier behind an ox cart into the city, trembling. The young soldier asked nervously, "...... This group of people is really a bandit, vicious and tight. What do we do now? ”

The veteran calmed down and said: "Don't panic, they don't kill the people, they only kill the soldiers who defend the city, eighty percent of them want to control the city gate, let's take off the skin on our bodies and mix with the people, maybe we can pick up a life." ”

The two of them quickly took off their trumpet hangers, wore only moon-white shirts, and when they saw the opportunity for a few people to pass by the ox cart, they bowed their heads and followed behind, and ran into the city. Sure enough, as the veteran expected, this group of people did not attack the people, and they passed smoothly.

Seeing that the people had almost run away, and there were no more soldiers at the city gate, Huang Mengjia ordered people to close the city gate, leaving ten people to guard, and led the rest of the people to rush to the next city gate.

After the original beheading guards and the chopping foot mountain captured the city, and after the imperial army crossed the border and looted, several times of rubbing, Chengmai's defense force was weak. The patrol archers who had blocked the chopping foot pass were almost wiped out after the city was broken, and there was no formed force in the city to resist the wolf-like hundred or so people, and the special combat team that seemed to have a small number of people was actually in a no-man's land.

In the face of the almost undefended county seat, Huang Mengjia concocted the same method, and soon took all the city gates, and Chengmai became a lonely city, unable to enter or exit.

The people in the city fell into an endless panic, and after experiencing the disaster of the siege of the city and the repeated orders of the imperial army to pay the food, the common people, especially the big households, have become frightened birds. The shops were closed, the people were hiding in their homes and afraid to go out, and the streets were empty.

Huang Mengjia found a watchman and asked him to shout along the street.

Under the threat of the sharp blade of the steel gun, the husband obediently went to the street to shout, resounding in the streets and alleys.

"Today, the lord of the mountain will bring people to borrow food and wages, and hope that the people in the city will have food and grain, and if they have money to pay, they will be convenient for themselves with others, and they will withdraw from the county seat if they have enough 30,000 taels of silver and 10,000 stone of grain!"

"Those who have more than 20 acres of land and more than three servants in their homes will gather in front of the county yamen tomorrow and pay 100 taels of silver for each household. If you don't come behind closed doors, I'll wait to pick it up. ”

The people hiding behind the door panicked when they heard these words, is this the repetition of the chopping foot mountain that attacked the county seat in the first place? 30,000 taels of silver, 10,000 stone of grain, and 100 taels per large household, is this to loot the entire Chengmai?

In the past two years, the Weisuo Army and the Guangdong battalion have been ravaged in turn, they have broken their wealth many times, they are overwhelmed, and now they have encountered this evil star, and it seems that they can't hide, and if this continues, the family will be defeated.

In the midst of the panic, the frightening day passed, and the night fell, and the county town was shrouded in darkness.

On a street corner, a dark shadow hurried by, came to the door of a house by the moonlight, and knocked lightly.

The door creaked open, and a head poked out of it, and when he looked out, and saw that there was no one around, he dodged away and let the man outside.

In the study room in the courtyard, the lights are bright, and three middle-aged people are sitting upright.

One of them said: "Two adults, I have checked it today, and the thieves have only placed more than ten people at each city gate, and the rest of them are entrenched in the county government and hold the county lord hostage, and it is estimated that there are only about eighty or ninety people, and the total number is about 100 people. If we gather up in the city to inspect and serve the officials, and then ascend to the heights and call for the people to be brave, can't we expel a hundred thieves from the county seat? ”

One person smiled bitterly and said: "Fu Inspection, the thieves are already entrenched in the city, how can you be allowed to climb the heights?" At that time, the people were not summoned, but were gathered and annihilated by the thieves. ”

The person who is called Fu Patrol is the head of the inspection department who made great contributions to resisting Huang Mengjia's siege last time. He had a group of archers, but he was basically lost when defending the city, although after the war from the people to re-order, but the training of archers can not be achieved in a short period of time, the combat effectiveness is still very weak, against the vicious "chopping foot soldiers" is obviously not enough, need to unite other forces.

Another person said: "Lord Zou is reasonable, although there are only 100 thieves, but they are fierce and incomparable, and they all hold short guns, and they can't get close to each other, and the opponent is very unwise." ”

Fu Youdi pressed his temperament and asked: "Dare to ask Lord Sun, if you don't recruit the people bravely, you can't be the enemy, so let the thieves mess with the county, hold the county respectable, and loot the money and grain, will we have good fruits to eat?" ”

The two of them blushed and were speechless. These two people are Chengmai County Cheng and the main Bo, today the county was hijacked, the county seat was occupied, and the responsibility was pursued afterwards, the two could not escape the blame, so they quietly agreed to meet the inspection to discuss countermeasures.

Zou Xiancheng coughed and said: "The strength in the city is too weak, and the thieves can't take advantage of it, so it's better to concentrate your forces, break through the city gate, and ask for help from the city." ”

Regarding the surrender doctrine of the two officials, Fu Youdi was extremely disappointed: "There are only a hundred Li people, and they still ask Fucheng for help, not to mention whether Fucheng will help, even if Futai is gracious, how can Yuanshui quench his thirst?" By the time the city came to reinforce the troops, the thieves had already rolled up the money and food and ran away. It's better to gather people and fight with the thieves. ”

Zou Xiancheng and Sun Zhubo glanced at each other, and they both saw the hesitation in each other's eyes. The armed forces in the county town are weak, and hard work may not be able to win, but it is better to rush open the city gate to ask for help, whether the rescue is too late to say, at least the successful delivery of the news, the responsibility will be reduced a lot.

However, Fu Youdi's suggestion is not easy to veto, it seems that the two of them are too cowardly, and if they are investigated afterwards, I am afraid that they will be punished by the officials. Zou Xiancheng thought about it again and again, nodded and said: "According to what you said, quietly gather the people's bravery, gather the patrol soldiers, and add three classes of officials to attack the county government." But if he loses, he will directly attack the east gate and go out of the city to ask for help from the city. ”

Fu Youdi rubbed his hands and said: "I must go all out to do my best." (To be continued.) )
