Huanggubao is not Mao Wenlong's goal this time. His goal is to contain Hou Jin's blue flag so that Hou Jin cannot attack Mao Zhongming with all his strength to attack Jinzhou. And Mao Zhongming is not really attacking Jinzhou, but just to really attack Nanguan.

Zhang Pan hits the block.

This was a series of arrangements. Mao Wenlong only announced this arrangement to the generals after the official battle started, which made the bellicose Mao Youde very depressed.

My brother, who was emotionally strengthened, just came out and got seasick, and then went back after looking at the long-lost land.

But you cannot disobey your father's orders. You can do whatever your father asks you to do. This is his simplest idea.

Seeing the unwilling Mao Youde, Chen Dashao, the leader of the fifth battalion, had to remind him again and again: "Major General, Marshal Mao said this time that we are just bluffing, but we cannot lose our troops. This is very important.

"

Mao Zhongming was very annoyed by his partner's nagging: "Oh, Old Chen, don't be nagging like this. I know my father's general ordered me to do it, so why don't I resolutely not fight?"

Chen Dashao shut up. Anyway, he is the adopted son of the Marshal, and it is not good to talk too much.

So he led the army and continued to advance inland. Not far ahead was the Huanggu Castle, which you could see from here.

The place where we just got off the boat was a simple small pier. There was a fishing village next to the pier. It was lifeless. A few people came and went occasionally, and they were like ghosts. When they saw the soldiers, they were not as panicked and fearful as before. They just stood there, just like ghosts.

They kept their bodies and watched the army passing by, because they no longer knew how to panic or fear.

Seeing this situation, Chen Dashao found Mao Youde again.

"What are you going to say? If I don't attack the enemy, why don't I just watch?"

Chen Dashao smiled bitterly and explained his purpose: "Major General, I think the people here are really pitiful. How about we round them up and transport them back to our Shicheng Island? Our island is full of landlubbers from the north.

There is a shortage of fishermen, so teaching everyone how to fish is also a way of making a living."

Mao Youde looked at the skeleton child standing on the roadside not far away, who didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl, and was about to nod in agreement.

But at this time, Xiang Xueli directly objected: "Young General, you can't do that."

"Why not?"

"If we transport these people back to Shicheng Island, we will have to use the boats we came with. But once the enemies of Zhenglan Banner attack, we will have no boats to go back to."

It would be better not to say this, but when he said this, Mao Youde's head turned around. Yes, his adoptive father loved the people. If he transported these people back, his adoptive father would be happy, and the most important thing is,

We need boats to transport people. If we are attacked by the enemy, we will have no boats to retreat. Yes, because there are no boats to retreat, of course we will have to fight to the death. This excuse is very good and very powerful.

So Mao Youde loudly said: "My foster father has repeatedly taught us to love the people. Now we are seeing the people being oppressed by the slaves in such misery. How can we just stand by and watch. Now I have decided to implement my father's idea of ​​loving the people and send out ten soldiers."

Flag, immediately help the people here take the boat to our Shicheng Island."

As soon as this order came out, Xiang Xueli grinned. Now he finally understood that he had made a mistake.

However, Mao Youde's temperament is like this. He does whatever he wants, and even nine oxen can't pull him back. The more you persuade him, the more energetic he becomes. So he thought about it and suggested again: "We want to transport people to the island. In this section

We must keep an eye on the enemies who may come out of Huang Castle."

Mao Youde nodded: "You are right. You are all busy. I will take my second battalion to visit Huang Castle."

At that time, Xiang Xueli wanted to slap himself severely. He was definitely talking too much, so he quickly suggested again: "The commander-in-chief said, we are just bluffing, but we must not attack the castle recklessly."

." As soon as he said this, Xiang Xueli was ready to draw a knife and hit himself on the neck.

Chen Dashao quickly came to the rescue of his deputy: "Our purpose is to restrain Mang Gurtai from attacking the first battalion, so we cannot attack the fortress. Once we are beaten into a mess, we will have nothing to worry about."

Mao Youde nodded and accepted the suggestion.

Now that he has accepted it, no one can say anything more, otherwise this kid is a stubborn ass who gets more and more enthusiastic the more he talks.

"I won't attack Huang Gubao. I will keep an eye on him and divert the people for other brothers. I just want to attract Jiannu not to attack my brother." Mao Youde led the team forward in such a bored manner, while walking

He also muttered a warning to himself not to ruin his father's plan. "As long as I set up a formation outside that dilapidated fort, there will probably be a hundred or ten defenders inside, and they will not be able to get out, and then everyone will be able to defend it."

Then after two or three days of staring at each other face to face, this battle will probably be over, and then I will return to my island and become its owner.

The ancient Huang Castle is right in front of you. The ancient Huang Castle is still tall and has not been damaged by the years, although the bluestone walls are mossed due to its proximity to the sea.

When Mao Youde's army arrived in front of Huanggu Castle, the gate of Huanggu Castle suddenly opened wide, and a group of beggars swarmed out, howling without knowing what they were saying, which surprised Mao Youde.

, quickly stopped and shouted to the brothers behind him: "Array, array, defend against the enemy."

He was careless, he was really careless. Mao Youde now really regrets listening to the nonsense of those colleagues. Now he is fine. Unexpectedly, the defenders of Huanggu Castle, who should be a hundred or ten people, dared to open the door and come out to fight.

Launch your own attack.

Such an unexpected situation was indeed beyond everyone's expectation, and all the soldiers were somewhat in a hurry.

But fortunately, the training was very strict, and the rattan sticks in the hands of the officers responsible for the training finally showed their effect now.

Following Mao Youde's order, the soldiers carrying big guns immediately lined up in three stacks of gun arrays in front. The first row squatted down, stepped on the guns in their hands with one foot, and pointed diagonally at the sky.

The second row thrust their spears and pressed their spears on the shoulders of the brothers in the first row, while the third row thrust their spears and prepared for the thrust.

The three stacks of spear-piercing formations were lined up. The sword and shield soldiers behind them immediately covered the heads of the spear-piercing brothers in front of them with huge shields to resist the incoming Jiannu cavalry's arrows. They held the steel sword tightly in their hands.

Always be prepared to engage in hand-to-hand combat with enemies who break through the spear formation.

One hundred soldiers suddenly ran out of the line. They pulled out their unique tool - the Luoyang shovel from their backs, and started frantically digging a horse pit about a hundred steps in front of the entire position.

Everything was in order, but in the blink of an eye, a defensive formation like a hedgehog was formed immediately.

Time was running out, so the soldiers who were digging horse traps in front immediately ran back to the formation after each of them dug five traps.

Mao Youde deeply lamented that the team trained by Li Guangchun's system could assemble at such a speed. This was much better than his brothers who only knew how to fight desperately.

When all the soldiers were going all out to prepare for the enemy who was about to attack them, among the enemy soldiers who rushed out like beggars, an old man with a gray beard raised an object in his hand and shouted loudly to Mao Zhongming.
