Once a war horse starts charging, it is difficult to stop.
After knocking away the five bandits who surrounded him with a spear, Han Zhen rushed into the army wearing scarves with a spear.
The remaining bandits had no time to panic, and Nie Jun and others followed closely behind.
Nie Jun carried a long spear and used it as a horse spear.
The five bandits were instantly torn into pieces under the charge of eighteen Western troops.
Han Zhen rushed into the crowd like a stable and efficient harvesting machine. Every time Ma Zhen waved, several people died.
With just one charge, the scarf army formed by the rebellious peasants collapsed.
Screams, cries, begging for mercy, and calls to kill were mixed together, echoing continuously under the night sky.
…
…
But it was said that after Sun Zhi arranged for his subordinate Wei Baozi to lead people to kill Han Zhen, he led more than 4,000 rebellious peasants and went straight to the county seat.
At this time, it was past midnight, the county was silent, and the people were still sleeping.
The government officials who were on duty at the city gate were lying in the city caves and sleeping soundly.
Sun Zhi didn't dare to get too close. After all, there were more than 4,000 people, and even if they were walking with their waist down, they would make a lot of noise.
"You wait here and don't move."
After giving an explanation, Sun Zhi led seven or eight Black Mountain bandits, quietly walked under the city wall, and then made a gesture to the Green Kite.
Seeing this, Green Kitten immediately understood and knocked on the door with his fist.
After knocking for a while, an impatient shout came from the city gate: "Who is it?"
"Master, it's me, the third son of Cuibo Restaurant."
This is the identity of Green Kitten in the county government.
After all, in a small county, what better place to get information than a restaurant?
The yamen servant was woken up by someone and was already unhappy. When he heard that it was Dr. Liquor from the restaurant, he immediately cursed: "You pickled thing, how dare you disturb grandpa's dream, get out of here!"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Green Harrier's lips, but he begged for mercy: "Please show mercy and let me in. I was bitten on the leg by a leopard and I'm in a hurry to find Dr. Wang."
"You are like a dog. Grandpa Zabugun will also break your other leg."
Seeing that the yamen officer seemed to be continuing to sleep, Green Kitty hurriedly said: "I still have a lot of money, so I should apologize to the father-in-law. I just hope that I can be allowed to go to the city to seek medical treatment."
Who would have thought that the yamen servant was not fooled. Instead, he sneered and said, "You are so brave, you dare to play tricks on grandpa. Wait until tomorrow, grandpa will definitely teach you a lesson!"
The yamen servant is not stupid, let alone a doctor of alcohol, even he can't afford the usual amount of money.
"I don't dare to play tricks on you even if I have ten nerves. I helped Liu Dutou run errands and got two rewards."
Green Kitten said, taking out a small bag of copper coins from his arms and shaking it vigorously.
For a moment, the copper coins collided together and made a crisp sound.
"Really?"
The officer was stunned.
Immediately afterwards, I heard him say: "Just wait, I will lift you up!"
The city gate is not like a house door, which can be opened and closed at will.
The ancients were not that stupid. After all, this was the gateway to a city.
The two city gates are wide and strong, and the top gate alone has more than ten giant latches.
Moreover, there is a Qianjin Gate behind the city gate, which will be lowered after the gate is closed after dark.
As the name suggests, the Qianjin gate weighs more than a thousand pounds. The internal material is hardwood and the outside is wrapped with a thick layer of iron.
During the Battle of Jingnan, the chief envoy of Jinan, Tie Xuan, pretended to surrender and planned to release a thousand-jin gate to crush Zhu Di when he entered the city.
Fortunately, Zhu Di was lucky and the soldiers controlling the Thousand Jin Gate were released earlier.
After escaping back, Zhu Di was furious and ordered artillery to blast the door.
As a result, more than a dozen artillery shells fired a round, and the thousand-jin gate only broke some iron pieces. You can imagine how strong it is.
This is why, once the city gate is closed at night, it will not be opened again.
In addition to guarding against bandits, another reason is that it is too troublesome to open the door once.
Even if there is an urgent letter, they will only throw a hanging basket from the city wall and hang it from the bottom of the city.
The reason why Han Zhen and the others were able to enter the city so easily last time was because Liu Yong had said hello in advance and deliberately did not open the Qianjin gate.
Otherwise, just the sound of the gate opening would wake up many residents near the city gate.
Soon, the government officials came to the tower.
Sun Zhi and others clung to the tower, blending their bodies into the darkness.
"We've agreed on a lot of money, but if you dare to play tricks on grandpa, huh..."
On the tower, the government officials threw the hanging basket down while threatening.
"Master, how dare I?"
The green kite pretended to be limping and climbed into the hanging basket.
"I'm sorry you don't dare either."
After the officer said that, he shook the turntable and pulled the green kite up little by little.
After climbing onto the tower, the Green Kite jumped out of the hanging basket quickly.
"Where's the money?"
The yamen servant didn't care and stretched out his hand to ask for money.
The green kite handed over the money bag with one hand and put the other hand into his arms: "Master, let's count them!"
His original intention was to wait for the other party to count the money, then catch him by surprise and wipe his neck directly.
As a result, the yamen servant didn't follow the routine. After weighing the money bag, he said contemptuously: "Count whatever you want. If it's less, grandpa will go to Cuibo Restaurant and kill you tomorrow."
Seeing that there was nothing he could do, the Green Harrier had no choice but to bite the bullet and take action.
He pulled out the dagger from his arms, stabbed it into the opponent's belly, and then twisted it hard enough to break his intestines.
"kill……"
Even though the green kite moved very quickly and covered the yamen servant's mouth immediately, he still shouted two words.
Under the silent night sky, this scream was extremely clear.
In the city cave below, another suspicious voice of another night guard immediately sounded.
"What happened?"
"Sixth son, sixth son?"
The Green Kitten pulled out the dagger and stabbed it twice more, then kicked the hanging basket down and shouted: "Brothers, come up quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Zhi below immediately jumped into the hanging basket, while Green Harrier turned the winch.
At this time, the yamen servant under the city cave finally realized that something was wrong, and ran to the county yamen.
While running, he also held a cow bone whistle in his mouth.
Shhhhhhh! ! !
The sharp whistle immediately echoed throughout the county.
For a moment, everyone in the city was awakened.
"No, the thieves are coming in!"
…
The house behind the county government office.
Chang Zhixian put on his coat and hurriedly walked out of the house.
"What happened?"
"Alang, it's not good, the thieves are coming!"
When he heard that there were thieves coming to kill him, Chang Zhixian's expression suddenly changed and he asked hurriedly: "But Han Er is here to kill me?"
"..."
This time it was Fu Bo's turn to be stunned.
He didn't understand why his Alang thought it was Han Er...
After a moment, he hesitated and said: "This...should not be it."
"I came here late, I hope the magistrate will forgive me!"
At this moment, Liu Yong's voice sounded outside the backyard door.
Changzhi County seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and quickly called out: "Please come in quickly."
In the panic, I even used "please" unconsciously.
Liu Yong pushed open the side door and stepped into the courtyard.
Before he could speak, Changzhi County asked like a barrage of questions: "Who is the thief? How many people are there? Are they entering the city now?"
After Liu Yong organized some conversation, he replied: "Maybe they are rogue bandits. I don't know how many people there are. Several people have entered the city now!"
"The thieves broke open the city gate and entered the city?" Changzhi County was horrified.
"That's it. According to the officer on duty, it was a doctor of wine in the city who helped the thieves deceive Wen Liu and use the hanging basket to climb up the city tower. My subordinates have ordered the archer and the quick class to go to the city tower to meet the enemy. They should be handed over now. ”
Hearing this, Changzhi County breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with satisfaction: "You did a good job in handling this matter and responded in a timely manner. You are worthy of the county's recommendation."
"It's all thanks to your good teaching."
Liu Yong cupped his fists and gave the horse a small pat.
Chang Zhixian smiled slightly, stroked his beard and said, "Let's go and follow the county to appease the people."
Liu Yong reminded: "Sir, official uniform."
Only then did Changzhi County realize that he was naked from the waist up, with only a coat approved and no shoes.
…
On the city tower, the Black Mountain bandits were fighting fiercely with the archers.
Sun Zhi originally wanted to pull a few more people up and open the city gate together, but he didn't expect the archers to come so quickly.
Fortunately, the archers were not very powerful and lacked courage. Although there were many people, there were only a few who really dared to come forward and fight.
On the contrary, it was the Black Mountain bandits who, with their fierce momentum, stabilized the situation.
As rebels continued to climb up to the city tower along the hanging basket, the situation gradually changed.
Poof!
The sword flashed and an arm flew into the air.
Sun Zhi wiped away the blood splattered on his face, laughed evilly, and shouted: "Brothers, follow a certain family to kill the city tower and open the city gate!"
"kill!"
Led by the Montenegrin bandits, the peasant rebels felt like they had been beaten to death.
The archers had never seen this scene before. Although they did not disperse in a hurry, they retreated again and again, and finally retreated completely from the tower.
After getting off the city tower, Sun Zhi immediately ordered: "Green Harrier, lead someone to open the city gate!"
"Got the order!"
After the green kite agreed, he immediately led seven or eight scarf-wearing troops to open the city gate.
Creak, creak, creak!
After a few people turned it, the winch made a grinding sound, and the heavy jack was slowly lifted.
At this time, Changzhi County put on his court uniform and walked out of the county government office under Liu Yong's escort.
As soon as he left the county government office, he bumped into a government official, it was Zhou Tian.
Liu Yong grabbed him and yelled, "Why are you panicking?"
Zhou Tian said in a panic: "Liu Dutou, it's not good! The thieves have descended from the city tower and are now opening the city gate. It is said that there are tens of thousands of rebel thieves outside the city."
"What did you say? Rebellion?"
Liu Yong was stunned.
Zhou Tian nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, they call themselves the Turban Army."
hiss!
Chang Zhixian felt a chill running down his tailbone and straight into his brain.
It’s not bandits, it’s the people who rebelled!
Wang Fu, the traitor, has no regard for the life and death of the people, and now he has finally caused trouble!
If the bandits are strong, the worst result would be to rob some wealthy businessmen.
But if you rebel, you will kill officials!
He, the county magistrate, will undoubtedly die by then.
Thinking of this, Changzhi County took a deep breath, suppressed the fear in his heart, and ordered clearly: "Liu Yong, please quickly summon the wealthy households in the county and ask them to send their servants to participate in the war. Tell them that this time it is The people rebelled, and if the rebels were killed and entered the city, none of them would survive, and they would all die."
"In addition, the young and strong village warriors in the county are recruited. Anyone who participates in the war will be rewarded with five guans. If he kills an enemy, he will be rewarded with another five guan. If he unfortunately dies in battle, he will receive a pension of 20 guan!"
Although he was greedy for money, he had to give it all at this moment.
Money and life, or life is more important.
After all, how can you make money if your life is gone?
"Got the order!"
Liu Yong did not dare to neglect and left in a hurry.
Inspired by money, Liu Yong quickly gathered more than 200 young men, as well as dozens of nurses and domestic servants from wealthy merchants.
More than two hundred people, armed with simple knives and spears, went straight to the east city gate.
At this moment, the archers and government officials were being killed and retreating steadily, just because the Black Mountain bandits were too strong.
Especially Sun Zhi, who dances with a big sword and is very brave.
Liu Yong shouted: "Brothers, don't panic, I'm here to help you."
Hearing this, the archer officials suddenly felt happy.
Immediately afterwards, I heard Liu Yong continue to shout: "The county magistrate has issued an order. Anyone who participates in the war will be rewarded with five guan. If he kills an enemy, he will be rewarded with another five guan. If he unfortunately dies in battle, he will receive a pension of 20 guan!"
This reward is quite generous.
In an instant, the momentum of the archers and yamen servants changed in vain.
"kill!"
With the participation of more than 200 Xiangyonghuyuan, and the stimulation of reward money, everyone's combat power suddenly increased greatly, even Sun Zhi was forced to retreat step by step.
Soon, surrounded by archers and yamen, the army wearing scarves was forced into the cave.
Seeing that the situation was getting better and better, Liu Yong looked proud, with one hand on his waist and the other holding the knife on his waist.
Kill the rebels!
This achievement is greater than the annihilation of the Songshanling bandits.
If it relies on merit, I don't know if I can touch the location of the master's book.
In the city cave, a bald man asked loudly: "Third brother, what should I do?"
Sun Zhi's face was gloomy and he said in a ferocious tone: "Find an opportunity to kill and then set fire everywhere to delay..."
"The floodgates are opening!"
At this moment, a shout of surprise sounded from deep inside the cave.
A trace of ecstasy flashed in Sun Zhi's eyes, and he laughed and said, "Open the city gate and grab money and food!"
boom!
As the two heavy city gates were opened, the troops wearing scarves who had been waiting outside for a long time rushed into the city shouting.
"Kill!"
"Grab money and grain!"
"Kill the dog officials, kill the profiteers!"
In an instant, Liu Yong's face turned pale, and a large amount of cold sweat slid down his face...
…
…
Han Zhen didn't know how long he had been charging before his horse finally stopped.
He had lost count of how many people he had killed while charging forward.
This was a one-sided massacre, and the combat power of both sides was not at the same level.
At this time, the Daijin Army had completely collapsed and fled in all directions.
If there is no one to resist, there is no point in continuing to kill.
Han Zhen raised his horse high and shouted: "Disarm and not kill!"
"Disarm without killing!"
"Disarm without killing!"
Nie Jun and other soldiers also shouted.
For a time, many rebellious peasants threw away their weapons.
Except for a few who were bent on escaping, most of the scarfed soldiers, women and children chose to kneel down and accept the surrender.
Han Zhen ordered: "Nie Dong, gather the prisoners of war and clean up the battlefield!"
"Got the order!"
Nie Dong responded loudly.
This feeling of returning to the battlefield to fight made him extremely happy.
Especially following Han Zhen, killing enemies along the way.
A bloody massacre made these rebellious farmers wake up from their fanaticism and become the timid and cowardly they once were.
These are the people at the bottom!
Soon, all the surrendered rebels were escorted back to the mountain stronghold and gathered on the school grounds.
Nie Dong reported: "Village chief, there are more than 1,300 prisoners in total, more than 600 young and strong people, and the rest are old, weak, women and children."
"What are the casualties of our troops?"
He is more concerned about this.
Nie Dong looked a little weird and said: "Twelve people were slightly injured, five of them... uh, they sprained their feet."
After practicing for so long, how the hell could you sprain your foot?
Han Zhen sneered: "Remember those five people, and their training time will be doubled from now on."
"yes!"
Nie Dong responded with cupped fists.
At this time, Zhang He came over quickly: "Village Chief, Qiu Niu is back!"
"Let him come over."
Han Zhen gave an order.
I ran twice in a short period of time, but Qiu Niu was exhausted.
But there was no way. It wasn't that Han Zhen was stingy, but that he still hadn't learned to ride a horse after learning for several days.
Qiu Niu was sweating profusely and said out of breath: "The village...the village chief, the army wearing scarves...are attacking the county seat!"
I'll work hard and see if I can have another big chapter later.
