Niu Er, who had just left not long ago, was called over again and was once again arranged to go to the east hillside, telling him that he must invite people back.
Niu Er didn't want to go to the east hillside.
Especially after knowing that the soldiers and horses on the hillside were not Ming troops from Lushun at all, but tiger bandit soldiers and horses from Pi Island, I didn't want to go back.
But he was just a small flag officer and had no choice at all.
Bite the bullet, he accepted the errand and headed to the east hillside again.
Coming here this time was not as easy as the last time. Although the person had not changed and the road under his feet had not changed, he seemed to be carrying a heavy sack and his walking was much slower than usual.
In my heart, I wished that this road would never come to an end.
"The camp is up, Nanguandao Fort has sent someone over again, and it's the same one who came back last time." After receiving Niu Er, the soldiers on guard duty immediately arranged for people to come to the hillside to report.
Zhao Wu said: "Bring people here!"
The soldier who delivered the message turned around and left to take the others.
Wang Ju on the side asked: "Should I avoid it?"
"There's nothing shameful or anything to avoid. It just so happens that you stay and meet with me." Zhao Wu left Wang Ju behind.
After hearing this, Wang Ju sat firmly on the stone below.
The person was quickly brought over.
"Little Niu Er has seen generals... two generals." Niu Er noticed that there was an extra person sitting next to Zhao Wu, and immediately changed his name and called out the two generals.
Zhao Wu looked at Niu Er who arrived and said, "Have you met your general when you went back?"
"When I get back to the general, I have seen you. My general asked me to come over and invite the general and several other generals to the fort for a banquet. He told me that I must invite people there." Niu Er lowered his head. Said respectfully.
Zhao Wu turned his head and looked at Wang Ju beside him, and said, "Did he come to invite us with sincerity?"
"Then go!" Wang Ju said casually.
After hearing this, Niu Er's tense body relaxed a lot.
"Okay, it's up to you, let's go to the banquet." Zhao Wu said with a smile, then turned to Niu Er in front of him and said, "Go back and tell your general to prepare the banquet. We will be there soon."
Hearing this, Niu Er raised his head, looked at Zhao Wu in surprise, and asked, "General, won't you go back with the younger one?"
"No rush, I have to prepare a little before I can go there. You can go back first!" Zhao Wu signaled to Niu Er that he could go back.
Niu Er hesitated for a while, but finally decided to go back first, and returned to Nanguandao Fort alone.
As soon as he left, Wang Ju suddenly said: "The Ming army guard at Nanguandao Fort is really polite. He sent people twice to invite you, Ying Zheng, to the banquet."
"I'm afraid the banquet won't be a good one!" Zhao Wu sighed.
Wang Ju smiled when he heard this and said: "It seems that Ying just felt something!"
"The Ming army man was so obvious just now. I couldn't see anything at all. I was too blind. It's a pity that I couldn't take down Nanguandao Fort without any blood." Zhao Wu said with regret.
The first time the guard of Nanguandao Fort sent someone to invite him, he didn't think anything was wrong. But this time he sent someone again, and he finally discovered that something was wrong.
Coupled with the analysis Wang Ju told him before, he understood that his plan of Li Daitao was impossible, and the other party prepared for him to catch a turtle in an urn.
Wang Ju said: "Before we came, Nanguandao Fort had been attacked by slaves for a long time, and the casualties must have been considerable. We have brought more than a dozen cannons. It shouldn't take much effort to capture Nanguandao Fort. "
"Then let's do it!" Zhao Wu said.
It is impossible for Li Daitao to be deadlocked, so he will defeat the Ming army guarding the fort head-on and capture the Nanguandao Fort.
Wang Ju stood up from the stone, slapped the dirt on his butt a few times, and said, "I'll gather the team and pull them outside the South Guam Fort."
"Leave a squadron to guard the prisoners." Zhao Wu said, "When you go to Nanguandao Fort, take the 1,000-man army team with you."
"Yes." Wang Ju responded and strode away.
The team was quickly assembled, and Wang Ju personally led his thousand-man team to the South Guam Fort.
In addition to the infantry, the artillery team, led by Captain Chen of the artillery team, also transported more than a dozen cannons outside the South Guam Fort.
Wang Ju and a group of soldiers with the tiger flag were fighting with the slave soldiers and horses, and then came outside the Nanguandao Fort. It can be said that the soldiers participating in the battle were not easy.
The Ming army in Nanguandao Fort also had a fierce fight with the slaves and traitors, and it was not easy either. The battle with the slaves and traitors left many damaged areas on the fort, and there was no time to repair it.
on the fort wall.
The guard of Nanguandao Fort looked at the sudden arrival of the army outside the fort with a very ugly look on his face.
I thought I could trick all the generals of the Tiger Flag into the fort, but now the opponent has set up a posture outside the fort, which is obviously giving him a chance to catch the turtle in the urn.
"Niu Er, what's the matter with you? Didn't you tell the tiger bandit people?" Baihuguan, who was also standing on the fort wall, asked Niu Er with a dark face.
Niu Er, who heard this, said with an aggrieved face: "The younger one said it, and he said it word for word. The other party promised that he would come and asked the younger one to come back first."
"If someone asks you to come back, you will come back. You will not come back with others." Baihuguan did not let Niu Er go because of his explanation, but continued to question and reprimand him.
The first level of officialdom is overwhelming, and Niu Er can only swallow the grievances in his heart.
At this time, the guard of Nanguandao Fort said: "Okay, don't blame him. The tiger thieves didn't lie to him. Isn't this coming?"
As he spoke, he pointed with his finger at the army that was preparing to attack the city outside the fort.
"The tiger thieves are coming fiercely, I'm afraid we have no choice but to take action." Baihuguan left Niu Er and came to the guard of Nanguandao Fort.
The guard of Nanguandao Fort said with an ugly face: "This battle is not easy to fight. Have you seen the tiger bandit's cannon? There are nearly twenty cannons, and our fort only has six cannons."
"If the tiger thieves don't retreat, we have no choice but to fight." Baihuguan said.
After hearing this, the guard of Nanguandao Fort nodded slightly and said: "You are right, we have no choice but to fight the tiger thieves, but I am not afraid, I can even repel the slave thieves. What can the tiger thief do to me?"
The Baihu official next to him didn't answer this time.
The slaves and horses brought by Nahai almost captured Nanguandao Fort before. If the tiger thieves hadn't suddenly appeared, which attracted the attention of the slaves, Nanguandao Fort would have changed the king's flag by now.
Now there is a tiger thief who is more powerful than the slave thief. He really has no confidence in guarding the South Guandao Fort.
However, it was difficult for him to say these words.
The defenders in the fort rely on this little morale. If the ordinary soldiers below know that even he, a hundred-household official, is not optimistic about this battle, the morale of the soldiers will decline to the extreme.
