Zhang Cheng sighed: "Xia Guan originally thought that he would be able to live a few days of peace, but he ......"

His voice trembled uncontrollably.

"It's all here, what's the use of talking about this? It's the right thing to do. Liu Ruozai said secretly in his heart, but these words were inconvenient to say, he lightly comforted Zhang Cheng a few words, and then began to look at the defense.

After a few glances, he raised his eyebrows, and was a little surprised in his heart. This defense is surprisingly well arranged, the military supplies that should be available are placed in the most suitable places, and the personnel are all in place, and the level of this arranger is not low. Dong Ce also saw it, and was amazed in his heart.

"Master Zhang, who arranged this defense?" Liu Ruozai asked.

Zhang Cheng glanced at Zhu Dong, who was standing next to him, and said, "It's just that you don't want to get off the official." ”

Zhu Dong seemed to want to say something, but he didn't dare to say it after all.

However, Liu Ruozai, Dong Ce and the others are not blind, so they can naturally see what is going on, Liu Ruozai nodded noncommittally, but he was disdainful in his heart: even such a little credit from his subordinates has to be embezzled, this chapter is really ......

Dong Ce didn't care about this, just squinted his eyes and looked at everything outside.

Looking at the posture of these traitors, it is also very normal to look down on the defenders, of course, it cannot be ruled out that there is another situation, that is, they themselves have lax military discipline and cannot be restrained.

In this case, it is not possible to derive more information.

Everyone else is dizzy, even if it is Liu Ruozai's concentration, they are all shocked by the huge formation of the thief army outside the city, and the charter is not to mention, it is already as pale as dirt and as if the body is sifting chaff. But Dong Ce was still expressionless, and after seeing that the enemy's huge formation was shocked, his heart was now calm.

He didn't think there was anything to fear from these thieves.

Limited by insight and the speed at which information circulated, the common people and gentry of this era, and even the officials, did not have an intuitive understanding of the fighting capacity of the peasant rebel army -- except for those governors and generals who had dealt with the rebel army all year round.

The vast majority of officials only knew that the rebels were very numerous, and their momentum was very huge, sweeping through Shaanxi, Henan, Anhui, Huguang and other places, and they defeated an unknown number of states and counties, and even Fengyang was defeated by them. The officers and soldiers were not their opponents, and occasionally won a few battles, but more often they sat back and watched the rogue rag, and the situation in the entire Central Plains was eroded.

That's all they can know, and maybe they also know the titles and names of some of the most famous bosses among the anti-thieves. No matter how much you want to know, you can't know where to go.

It is an official gentry, who is contemptuous, disdainful, and hateful of anti-thieves, but at the same time, he is quite afraid. They don't know how powerful the anti-thieves are, they only know that the officers and soldiers may not be able to beat them, but they don't know that the basis of this conclusion is that the vast majority of the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have long been rotten.

But Dong Ce is different from them.

Coming from later generations and being well versed in the history of the Ming Dynasty, he knew very well what the combat effectiveness of the rebels was during most of the Chongzhen period -- to put it bluntly, before the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, it was more appropriate to use the four words of the earth chicken and tile dog to describe the combat effectiveness of the vast majority of the rebel army.

The righteous army has always been huge, often claiming hundreds of thousands, millions, but among them, the real ones that can fight are only tens of thousands, and this is still in the later period, that is, after the twelfth year of Chongzhen. At that time, due to years of conquest, the rebels trained a large number of elite soldiers, and most of them were cavalry, these people were very capable of fighting, and also constituted the main fighting force in the rebels. And at this time, in the eighth year of Chongzhen, the number of elites in the rebel army was even less.

And there are so many rebel armies, and now the ones that are raging in Guanzhong are Gao Yingxiang and other departments, how many real elites can there be?

Since the beginning of Chongzhen, the rebel army has begun to run rampant all over the world, and the momentum is very huge, but looking at the battle with the officers and soldiers, on the whole, the officers and soldiers are in an advantageous position. Whether it is Hong Chengchou or Lu Xiangsheng, or later Sun Chuanting, they are very powerful in fighting thieves. Many times the thieves were beaten and almost exterminated, but the brains fled with a dozen people.

That's right, they defeated a lot of states and counties and killed a lot of officers and soldiers, but the reason why they achieved these results was because they avoided the elite main force of the Ming army, and chose to fight in some easy places. They wander around and have no base of their own, which is why they are often called rogues.

What they are really powerful is that they have the attribute of not being able to fight to the death: anyway, if I can't beat it, I will run, and you can't catch up with me, catch up with me, and wipe out my large army, it doesn't matter, as long as our leader runs away, and then go to Henan and Shaanxi to go around, and then pull up the big army.

Don't look at the fact that Guanzhong claims to have millions of anti-thieves now, and Qin Governor Hong Chengchou only has tens of thousands of horses in his hands, once Hong Chengchou returns to Guanzhong from Henan, the anti-thieves will immediately run away - they can't beat them!

Thinking of this, Dong Ce has nothing to fear.

Turning around, I was about to say to Liu Ruozai, when Zhu Dong suddenly strode over, knelt in front of Zhang Cheng and kowtowed, and said, "Master Zhang, I just went to inspect the city wall, and the soldiers are not high. ”

"Not high morale? What's going on? How do you always do this? When Zhang Cheng heard this, his face immediately pulled down, and Fang Cai's nervousness and fear were gone, staring at Zhu Dong with a fierce gaze, and scolded sharply.

Zhu Dong trembled violently, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "The brothers want to ask the adults to send some silver salaries to encourage morale and boost the soldiers!" ”

"What, for money?" Zhang Cheng was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, almost jumping up, his face was extremely gloomy, his fingertips were almost against Zhu Dong's face, and his voice was fierce: "You lowly martial artists, when you are in danger, you don't want to serve the court, you only know how to take the opportunity to coerce, you really deserve to be killed!" Do you dare to ask the official for food? ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhu Dong was also anxious, and the anger that had been suppressed for several months instantly exploded, and it rushed to his head with a rub, burning his eyes red.

Rabbits bite when they're in a hurry! Not to mention, Zhu Dong is also a bloody man, and he also had the intention of rebelling before. In fact, as long as you think about it once, you can't help but think about it again. His heart is actually a little more unruly than before.

"My lord, if you don't pay you money, you have to give you some food!"

Zhu Dong didn't care about it, and directly exposed all the dirty things that Zhang Cheng had done, and shouted with red eyes: "Our brothers were ordered to come to garrison Chengcheng County, and it was our duty to be soldiers to eat food and kill the enemy. But in the past three months, we have only received half a month's salary! The brethren are not as poor as they are, and how many of them have not eaten a full meal. Now that the thieves are all killed, and they can't eat, where can they have the strength to kill the thieves? My lord, you have to take care of our meals, right? ”

"You're looking for death!"

Zhang Cheng's was revealed, and he was immediately annoyed and angry, especially in front of Liu Ruozai, which made him feel that he had lost face, his face became extremely hideous, staring at Zhu Dong deadly, and his voice was cold: "Zhu Dong, you are looking for death!" ”

He waved his hand and said in a loud voice: "When Zhu Dong was about to fight, he hesitated, tried in vain to hold his official hostage, and did not think of fighting to the death with the enemy, come, arrest, go to prison!" ”

"Yes!"

The two sturdy servants behind him answered, and they were about to arrest Zhu Dong. Zhu Dong's face changed greatly, his eyes were full of shock and disbelief, he suddenly stood up and shouted: "Who dares to touch Lao Tzu? ”

He was able to get to where he is today, and he also struggled out of the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, but there was a lot of blood under his hands, and he was also very powerful under the disgust. That official Su Rili is capable of bullying and bullying ordinary people, and when Zhu Dong stares at him like this, he is so frightened that he doesn't dare to move forward.

Zhang Cheng was even more furious: "Zhu Dong, you are going to rebel!" Aren't you afraid of punishing the nine clans? ”

"Lao Tzu is going to rebel!" This sentence turned countless times in Zhu Dong's chest, but he didn't dare to say it after all.

At this time, many soldiers had already looked over here, and a few people seemed to be coming this way. The faces of these soldiers were full of indignation. But Zhang Cheng was still unaware of it, still scolding. "This idiot!"
