"General, where should we find Shang Dusi?" asked the soldiers following Huang Long.
Huang Long looked up at the empty street in front of him and said, "Go to the homes of wealthy families in the city to look for them. If Shang Kexi wants to get enough quilts, he can only go to the homes of wealthy families in the city to collect them."
Lushun City was built during the Yongle period.
It is divided into north and south cities. The north city is mainly used to station troops, while the south city is used to take over materials shipped by sea and use them for temporary storage.
Naturally, many merchants came to Nancheng. Coupled with the rise of slave thieves, Lushun Nancheng served as an important material storage place. Some merchants simply settled in Nancheng.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
Of course, any businessman who dares to settle in such a place is not a kind person. Without any background, even his bones would have been swallowed by others.
The houses of wealthy families are all in the city.
Either they are on the same street as the various yamen in the city, or they are on adjacent streets.
"General, someone is coming from ahead."
Halfway through, a soldier beside Huang Long suddenly raised his hand and pointed forward.
On the deserted street, a group of pedestrians suddenly appeared, naturally conspicuous.
"It should be Shang Kexi. Follow me quickly." Huang Long strode towards the oncoming group of people.
The two sides soon met each other.
"The last general will see Vice General Huang." Shang Kexi, who had a low status, was the first to salute Huang Long.
Huang Long waved his hand and said, "Okay, no need to be polite. How have you prepared the things the general asked you to prepare?"
As he spoke, he looked behind the other person.
The officers and soldiers who came with Shang Kewei were carrying door panels or quilts wrapped together in their hands or shoulders. Everyone's hands were full.
"The general found some in the city and was about to take people to send them back." Shang Kexi said.
Hearing this, Huang Long said: "You go back with me. Now the city is short of anti-aircraft guns. Although the things you found are not many, they can be of some use."
"The general also heard the sound of the cannons, so he hurriedly sent the things back. But since Deputy General Huang is here, why not give all these things to Deputy Huang to take you back, and the general will continue to look for some things to take back." Shang Kexi suggested road.
There were nearly a hundred cannons outside the city, and there were few anti-cannon weapons prepared. He knew there were not enough.
Huang Long waved his hand to refuse, and then said: "You really want to offend all the big families in the city. Once the tiger thieves are defeated, these big families in the city will kill you alive."
"These things from the general were obtained through good negotiation with the other party. Those big players knew that we needed these things to deal with the tiger thieves, so they all rushed to give the things to the general." Shang Kexi defended.
Upon hearing this, Huang Long snorted and said: "You think I will believe your words, so you just hold up a mandarin duck quilt and say, who would take out such a good thing and waste it in vain."
He patted the quilt held by the officers and soldiers beside him with his hand.
There was a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water embroidered on it. Even though he was an old man and didn't know much about these things, he could tell that his embroidery skills were extraordinary. Most people couldn't afford this kind of quilt.
"This quilt seems to belong to the Wang family. Yes, it belongs to the Wang family. The head of the Wang family personally handed the quilt to the general." Shang Ke said with a smile.
Huang Long said: "The water behind the Wang family is relatively deep. If you provoke the Wang family this time, it will be difficult for you to do good."
"With the general and Deputy General Huang here, I won't be afraid at all." Shang Ke said flatteringly.
After hearing this, Huang Long glanced at him angrily and said, "Okay, take your people and go back with me. Tiger thieves may attack the city wall at any time. Now is the time when we need people."
After saying that, he turned around and walked back.
As for taking care of Shang Kexi, he didn't even mention it.
Shang Kexi, who was standing behind, looked at Huang Long's back and narrowed his eyes slightly.
He is not stupid, and naturally understands that Huang Long means that he does not want to interfere with his and the Wang family's affairs.
Shang Kexi and the people brought by Shang Kexi met up with Huanglong's people, but the things on his body were still held by the people brought by Shang Kexi.
Huang Long only brought his own soldiers, so it was naturally impossible for him to dare such coolies.
When we returned to the city wall, the sound of cannons still did not stop.
"Send the things up!" Huang Long said to Shang Kexi.
After hearing this, Shang Kexi hesitated and asked, "Vice-General Huang, why don't you go up with me?"
"You can go alone." Huang Long waved his hand.
The sound of cannons continued. Now when he reached the city wall, he could only find a place to hide. If he was unlucky, he would be hit by the cannons. Even if he was not afraid of death, he did not want to die in vain.
"Then I will go up first."
Shang Kexi knew that he was different from Huang Long. He was the deputy commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town, but he was just the commander-in-chief.
The horse trail is always guarded.
As soon as Shang Kexi and his men approached, they were immediately stopped by someone on the road.
"We are here to deliver anti-cannon supplies." Shang Kexi pointed to the wooden boards and quilts brought by his men.
The man blocking the road said: "The general asked me to wait for you here, but you can't go up like this. The quilt needs to be wetted with water, covered with a wooden board, and pushed up against the wooden board."
"General's order?" Shang Kexi asked more.
The other party said: "The general's order."
Shang Kexi had no choice but to take the people back and look for water to wet the quilt.
There were houses not far away, but he did not dare to take his men to these houses to look for water.
Because these houses were right behind the city wall, many of the cannons fired from outside the city landed in the houses near the city wall.
There are big holes in the roof.
There is no shortage of water in the city, and the Tiger Banner army outside the city has not cut off the water source in the city, so finding water is not difficult.
Shang Kexi asked someone to spread a water-soaked quilt on a door panel, and then several officers and soldiers raised the door panel to block it in front. Shang Kexi followed and climbed up the city wall along the horse path.
As soon as he climbed onto the city wall, he saw the tragic scene of broken limbs and blood flowing into rivers on the city wall, and his face changed color with distress.
Although he was sent to find things like door panels and quilts to temporarily leave the city wall, he had many soldiers and horses on the city wall responsible for guarding the city.
Many of the soldiers who died in the city were his soldiers.
Get stuck!
A breaking sound interrupted the distracted Shang Kexi.
The door panel he used to block in front of him was hit by artillery fire and broke into two pieces. The two officers and soldiers hiding behind were hit by the artillery fire on the spot.
If he hadn't been distracted just now, stopped in his steps, and not followed the officers and soldiers holding the door panel forward, he would have been hit by the cannon just now.
"Shang Dusi, the general ordered you and your men to immediately fight back against the tiger thieves outside the city." Chen Jisheng's soldiers came up from one side.
He didn't even look at the officers and soldiers who had just been hit by artillery fire and died tragically.
Starting from the shelling outside the city, there were too many dead and wounded officers and soldiers on the city wall, so many that it was difficult for him to have any emotional fluctuations.
