Huanggang was very angry and scolded several people bloody, but they did not dare to speak back because they themselves knew that they had done something wrong.
At this moment, someone suddenly came to report!
"It's not good! It's not good! Boss Huang! The army is attacking the city!"
Huang Gang, who was still scolding, was shocked when he heard this, and the expressions of the people being scolded also changed immediately.
Not caring to continue scolding, Huang Gang turned around and ran outside, quickly came to the edge of the city wall and looked out.
The people who were scolded just now also followed immediately.
When they came to the city wall and looked outside, they saw at the end of their line of sight that there had been no movement at all in the army camp before.
Groups of officers and soldiers walked out of the tents and quickly formed military formations in front of the camp where they were stationed.
What's different from yesterday is that there are many huge wooden objects in these military formations, as well as many things that look like cars but not like cars.
Not long after, deafening waves of war drums sounded, and the officers and soldiers who had been standing there just now began to approach step by step with the war drums!
Tens of thousands of people marched in order and gradually approached to the beat of war drums. This scene brought great psychological pressure to the rebels defending the city.
Many guards who had previously been indifferent to the officers and soldiers' attack on the city, saw the performance of the officers and soldiers at this moment, and lost their arrogance just now.
At this moment, all that was left in his heart was fear. With the sight of tens of thousands of people approaching, his calves began to tremble!
"Er Gouzi! This...why are these officers and soldiers different from what we have seen before?"
"You...you ask me? I...how do I know? I've never seen anything like this before!"
"Then can we win the fight?"
"Who knows! Wuwuwuwu..."
Many people feel a little lost, and some people have already regretted that they should not have rioted, otherwise they would not have to face these terrifying officers and soldiers now.
The action of quelling the Japanese army brought great psychological pressure to the rebels, which Huanggang immediately noticed after he came to his senses.
He knew that he couldn't let it go like this, otherwise they would collapse before the officers and soldiers could attack the city. He had to stabilize the morale of the army.
Therefore, in order to stabilize the minds of the guards guarding the city, Huang Gang said directly: "Brothers, we have no room to return after taking this road. Now no matter what, we can only continue walking in a dark way.
Even if we surrender now, the officers and soldiers will not accept it. You know the temperament of the officials in the court. They will only chop off our heads and take them back to the court to claim credit, so surrender is useless!
Only by fighting tooth and nail with the officers and soldiers can we have a way to survive!
In the next battle with the officers and soldiers, if you kill one of the officers and soldiers, I will give you a reward of five taels of silver!
Kill two for fifteen taels, kill three for fifteen taels!
The more you kill, the more you get, there is no online limit!
How much money you can get depends on your own methods! "
As soon as Huang Gang said this, the mob guarding the door who had been trembling just now suddenly became excited, yelling and waving the iron weapons they copied from who knows where.
There are hammers, kitchen knives and rakes.
There were no weapons in the government's arsenal. They had to look for them from the homes of wealthy families in the city, but they didn't find much, so they took whatever they had. This also resulted in the weapons in the hands of the rioters being varied and used for everything. It looked more and more like What a rabble!
With his morale boosted, Huang Gang looked towards the city again.
At this time, the Ping-Japanese army outside the city had already driven its army to two hundred steps away from the city. The army stopped instantly amid loud shouts.
Tens of thousands of people stopped in place instantly as if they were one person.
Immediately afterwards, groups of soldiers suddenly rushed into the huge wooden objects they carried with the army this time. This object was not close to him, and the tallest one, which looked like a small spoon, was higher than the city wall of Daxing County!
At first, Huang Gang was still wondering what this thing was used for, but then, when he saw the officers and soldiers appearing from the top of the thing, and when they looked down from the top, Huang Gang suddenly understood the purpose of this thing. usefulness!
The layout under the city wall on his side is now clearly visible under the other party's observation.
Then other things started to come into play one by one.
Just when Huanggang was still worrying about how to deal with this kind of observation vehicle from the government and army, he heard a roar.
By the time he reacted, countless black spots had appeared in the sky!
The next moment, the black spots gradually grew larger, and everyone finally saw clearly what they were. They were actually huge rocks!
Huge boulders fell in pieces and instantly smashed into the city wall, smashing the houses near the city wall into rubble!
Fortunately, there was no one inside. In order to prevent anyone from causing trouble, Huanggang specially sent people to clear out all the surrounding rooms. But even so, the terrifying lethality caused by the stone throwing still made all the rioters defending the city feel numb and gasp!
This power is so terrifying if it hits a house. But if it hits a person...
Before they could finish their thoughts, the second wave of roars came, and another wave of rocks rained down!
This time, the rockfall was closer to the city wall!
Now, everyone understood that the opponent was adjusting the position of throwing the stone!
Some of the smart ones were already sneaking down the city wall, while those fools were still stunned at the power of the stone bullets.
The guards following Huanggang secretly thought that they were out of luck!
Just following the boss, they naturally couldn't run away and could only stay in place. And at this moment, the third round of attacks arrived. This time the opponent had completely aimed at the position and adjusted the range!
The huge boulder fell straight from the sky towards the city wall.
Boom!
The gravel splashed and there was a lot of wailing!
The defenders who were still in a daze a moment ago were instantly wounded and killed!
Even Huanggang was almost killed on the spot by a piece of gravel flying past.
"Defend the city! Defend the city! Defend the city!"
The embarrassed Huanggang finally came to his senses and roared loudly for his men to defend the city!
But no one answered him, because there were wounded people everywhere, and no one had time to pay attention to him.
Naturally, the chaos on the city wall here was clearly seen by the observation post of the Japanese army on the chao chariot. Immediately after a few flags were signaled, the infantry who had been waiting for a long time immediately pushed the crash car towards the city gate of Daxing County. Rushed over!
Only one car crashed, and the others hid behind the carriage and wooden curtains and followed together to attack the city wall!
There are also Yunti Lu buses and so on!
The rioters were indeed a ragtag crowd, and they were already in a hurry with just a few trebuchets.
Huanggang was extremely anxious as he watched the officers and soldiers getting closer and closer to the city, but he could not hold his ground at all. They were running around on the city wall to avoid the mobs throwing stones.
A leader suddenly suggested: "Boss Huang, we can't defend the city at all. This army is obviously professional. How can we defend it?"
It's better to go into the city now and fight in the streets with these officers and soldiers.
These officers and soldiers can number up to ten thousand people, and we have two hundred thousand. When we enter the city, we can kill them all! "
"Yes! Yes! We can't defend the city anymore, let's fight in the street with them!"
"Street fighting! Street fighting!"
He turned around and looked at the approaching officers and soldiers below the city, and then looked at his own troops on top of the city who were still wandering around like headless flies.
Without any further hesitation, Huang Gang nodded and led everyone down the city wall!
Seeing them running away, the guards who were following them quickly ran down the city wall.
The rest of the people also ran down with them, no longer guarding the city wall, and hurriedly followed them down, shouting as they went down:
"Boss Huang ran away! He won't defend anymore! Let's run away too!"
"What? Boss Huang's leg was broken by a falling rock, and he was carried away. Hurry up! Let's run too!"
"I'm going. Boss Huang was smashed into a pulp by falling rocks. His men ran away with his pulp. Let's follow him quickly!"
Rumors always get stranger and stranger.
Especially those who have little knowledge like to add fuel and vinegar to it.
This has led to the rumors becoming more and more outrageous.
But the effect is the same. They were insisting on defending the city just now and did not escape down the city wall even though they were hit by falling rocks. When they heard that the boss had run away, they all ran away in a swarm!
This also resulted in the city walls of Daxing City being completely unguarded!
The Ping Japanese army successfully attacked the city wall through the ladder and Lu Gong's chariot.
After they came up and looked inside, they saw dense crowds of rioters on the streets of the city, rushing towards the inner city.
He hurriedly opened the city gate. As the Japanese troops entered the city on a large scale, Li Dingguo's expression changed immediately after hearing the news, and he quickly ordered the man to chase them in the direction of their escape!
That’s two hundred thousand people! If we really let them start a street fight with us, how many people would die from the Japanese army!
Street fighting is not that easy.
Unlike on the plains or in the wild, skilled soldiers can fight several at a time.
In a place with a narrow terrain like an alley, no matter how skilled you are, you will not have an advantage against a large number of rioters. When you leave the street fighting, the casualties will be the highest!
Not caring too much, Li Dingguo led more than two thousand armored cavalry and rushed towards the place where Huanggang and others retreated.
Riding a horse is always faster than running on legs. Besides, the time when the army entered the city was not long before Huanggang and the others fled.
Soon, Li Dingguo and his party, who were speeding along, saw the crowds of people in front of them who were crowding together to escape, but no one could run fast.
Immediately, Li Dingguo shouted loudly, regardless of whether Huanggang was among the crowd or not, he said: "Hey! I am Li Dingguo, the leader of the Japanese army! The leader of the bandits in front of you must leave!"
This shout was like a thunderstorm, instantly startling the people who were fleeing in an orderly manner. When they looked back, they saw Li Dingguo and others rushing towards them in a menacing manner. They were instantly frightened to the point of death!
The rebels who were left behind could not run away. In their desperation, they did not care about what Boss Huang had just said about the officers and soldiers not leaving anyone alive, and simply raised their hands and knelt on the ground to surrender.
Trying to bet on whether the army would accept their surrender.
What they didn't expect was that the officers and soldiers actually accepted it. Seeing them surrendering and getting out of the way, Li Dingguo rushed over without even looking at it. Seeing this, others followed suit, and soon a road was waiting for Li Dingguo. Appear in front of people.
At the end of the line of sight, when Huang Gang and the other leaders saw the cavalry chasing after them, they immediately ran faster!
When he saw them running away without hesitation, Li Dingguo was overjoyed!
Caught!
This must be the leader of the rioters!
Otherwise they wouldn't have escaped so simply!
Having determined the target, Li Dingguo immediately led his troops to charge forward:
"The thieves in front of you will leave!"
…
It will become two chapters a day later, but the word count will not be less.
I just changed from three chapters of two thousand to two chapters of three thousand. It’s just a combination of chapters. I improved the uniformity, and it’s not much different from before.
Occasionally, if I have time, I will update three times at a time. hey-hey!
(End of chapter)
