"Xiaoqi, seize the city... there must be our troops in the city, right? How many? One hundred? At least fifty!" Ma Gui was very optimistic.
Qin Er grinned, "Fifty is enough. We can control the city gate with a surprise attack. It only takes a moment for the cavalry outside the city to break in. After the merit is obtained, I will get a promotion and a reward... Xiaoqi."
"
Ma Gui looked at Tao Zhun, "Xiao Qi, are you... fifty?"
Tao Zhun shook his head.
"What about thirty?"
Tao Zhun stretched out three fingers.
"That's good."
"Just the three of us."
A group of scouts left the city, and someone at the top of the city shouted: "Be careful!"
Ma Gui looked at Tao Zhun, "Just the three of us?"
Tao Zhun nodded, "Yes, there are just three of us."
"Then how to capture the city?"
Tao Zhun looked at the sergeants at the city gate and said: "When will the army arrive and when will we take action? As soon as the city top screams, people will be killed immediately."
"But it's just us..." Ma Gui looked around.
"Surprise the enemy and attack him unprepared." Tao Zhun said solemnly: "I have also studied the art of war."
"But……"
"It's nothing." Tao Zhun said: "The commander said that as soon as Neizhou is over, our northern Xinjiang will turn from defense to offense. This is the first battle of turning from defense to offense.
By capturing Kunzhou, the left wing of northern Xinjiang no longer needs to worry about the enemy.
As soon as we move to Kunzhou, Longhua Prefecture will be surrounded by Kunzhou and Neizhou, forming a pincer attack. After that, we will take advantage of the trend to capture Longhua Prefecture. God, just think about it, what will happen?"
Ma Gui said longingly: "At that time, Kunzhou, Neizhou, and Longhuazhou will look like a fist, heading straight towards Beiliao."
Qin Er said: "Then...then our Northern Xinjiang has become the uncle of Northern Liao?"
"That is, from now on Beiliao will be the women in the brothel. When our uncle comes, we have to serve her." Tao Zhun said intoxicatedly: "If Tanzhou comes again, God! It is so beautiful that I dare not even think about it."
"I don't know. In the future, we from Northern Xinjiang will be able to conquer Northern Liaoning?"
"It's difficult to defeat, but it's not bad to suppress Beiliao!"
"When the time comes, Chang'an will also have to act based on the Duke's face."
"If the Duke stamps his foot, Chang'an will tremble three times."
"Hey!" Ma Gui crouched and moved closer to Tao Zhun, "Xiaoqi, when that time comes, tell me, will our father-in-law still accept Chang'an's bad attitude?"
"Damn it, the last time the Duke went to Chang'an, he was so majestic that even Yang Songcheng's family was destroyed by our Xuanjia Cavalry."
"Then...if we can suppress Bei Liao, the Duke...the Duke..."
Qin Er's eyes flickered, but in the end he did not reveal the possibility.
What should we do if the Duke rebels?
Tao Zhun didn't answer, but whispered: "What a relief!"
Northern Xinjiang has been angry for many years. Yang Xuan came to power and made several moves, which made Changan disgraced. Privately, both the military and the people were happy about it.
Qin Er felt that he was in trouble, so he changed the topic, "Xiao Qi, the beggar who escaped yesterday said that he would come back to take revenge."
Tao Zhun said: "Are you afraid?"
"You're afraid of birds. Aren't you worried about being discovered?"
"This kind of fight over territory will make the defenders feel at ease. They will feel at ease."
"Then, let's wait now?"
"Wait."
"By the way, who will lead the army?"
"This is a secret. Don't pry. Don't pry."
The sun was nice, so the three of them took turns taking naps.
The next day, Tao Zhun and the others emerged from a temple in the city.
"Someone is watching us!" Ma Gui whispered.
"I saw it."
A beggar was hiding on the left side, watching them furtively.
That night, Tao Zhun and the other three killed them to pieces. It seemed that they were unwilling to do so.
"Walk."
Tao Zhun took out a piece of cake and ate it while walking.
The pancakes were bought, and there was also some dried meat that I had brought with me.
Dried meat is a good thing, and it is very satisfying to eat.
The three of them arrived at the south gate, where two beggars were already squatting.
"grass!"
Tao Zhun cursed: "Drive away!"
Ma Gui and Qin Er stepped forward and kicked away the two beggars.
The beggars may seem pitiful, but when they are fighting for territory, they are so ruthless that it is unbelievable.
It is said that we are all destitute people at the end of the world, but in the world of beggars, we are all destitute people at the end of the world. We are all beggars, so just go and die.
Only if you die can we have enough to eat.
The two beggars walked away with bruises and swollen faces, cursing as they walked.
From what I heard, the reason for coming this time is to be polite first and then to fight. If Tao Zhun and the other three are willing to leave, then everyone will be able to keep their peace from now on.
Now that he has taken action, there is no need to worry about it, just give him blood for blood.
There was an internal fight among beggars in Taoxian County, and more than ten people died, which shocked the Jiedushi government.
That time, Yang Xuan became ruthless and arrested all the beggars. Those who had labor force would go to farm, and those who were disabled would go to workshops and do what they could to support themselves. Those who had no labor force at all would be hired by Jiedu.
The ambassador kept it.
But many beggars were unwilling to farm, saying it was too hard. The Duke didn't say anything and just left it to build roads.
"It seems that we have to learn from the public here!"
Tao Zhun sighed, and Qin Er asked: "Why are Xiaoqi sighing?"
"If you fight, you can't beat the Duke. If you govern, you can't compare to the Duke. Tell me, what are you waiting for if Kunzhou is not destroyed?"
Qin Er nodded, "Yes!"
The morning mist was thin and shrouded over the city.
"It looks like a steamer." Ma Gui finished eating the pancakes and looked at the mist and said, "The steamer is mostly filled with mutton buns. It's delicious to take a bite..."
"Shut up!"
"Shut up!"
Tao Zhun and Qin Er shouted at the same time.
So greedy.
The three of them tightened their belts.
"Open the city gate!"
The city gate slowly opened.
…
Wang Laoer is currently seven or eight miles away from Baode City.
He held the dried meat in his mouth and opened the map.
Tu Shang said happily: "Now I have learned how to plan before the war, which shows that I have taught you well!"
Wang Laoer sat down, touched a few pancakes and placed them on the map, threw a few dried meat strips on top, and put the water bag aside...
Isn’t this a picnic style?
Tu Chang felt heat rushing into his head.
"Tu Gong, eat!"
Wang Laoer raised his head and greeted warmly.
It’s as natural as inviting an acquaintance to come and enjoy delicious food together during a spring outing.
After breakfast, Wang Laoer took a look at the map and said, "Baode..."
His finger was off, and Tu Chang resisted the urge to slap him, "On the left!"
"Then what is this point?" Wang Laoer asked, pointing to a brown dot.
Tu Shang sneered, "Meat scraps."
"oh!"
Wang Laoer put the map up, shook it, and then arranged it, "Baode is pointing in the direction of Neizhou. Since Neizhou was captured, the ruthless bandit Zhen Siwen has repeatedly sent rangers to attack, causing Baode's defenders to be in a state of panic.
A sudden attack is naturally not possible..."
"Oh! Why?" Tu Shang asked.
Wang Laoer said: "Last time the old gangster and I went to a brothel to look at the legs, a woman and more than ten people came to arrest her man in a menacing manner. It was a big show, but it was a pity that her man heard the news before the people arrived.
The movement ran away."
"I am very pleased with your understanding." Tu Chang felt that the second child's understanding was really good, but he just didn't learn it well.
"So, if you want to raid the city, you must first control the city gate. But how can you control the city gate?"
Tu Shang didn't say anything, wanting to wait for him to figure it out for himself.
"Tu Gong, disguise yourself!"
"What?"
"You dress up as a woman, pretending to be a bride, and pick up a bride out of town! There are people in Tao County every now and then, so they won't arouse the suspicion of the defenders."
What a wonderful idea!
"good!"
Then he found a handsome sergeant from the army. When the bride's dress was taken out, Tu Shang realized that Wang Laoer had been prepared for it.
I looked down at my dick!
Tu Shang was happy.
He had been worried that if Wang Laoer continued to live in such a muddle-headed way, Yang Guogong would naturally reuse him, but how?
If you leave it outside, you just give up. If you leave it at home, it will probably lead to bad things for A Liang and the others.
After much deliberation, there was nowhere to go.
It seems that the second child is mature.
"We need a matchmaker!"
Wang Laoer took a few steps back and looked at Tu Chang, "Tu Gong, this matchmaker is usually quite old..."
Tu Shang: "..."
Later, a team to pick up the bride was formed.
"Set off!"
…
In the city.
Tao Zhun looked at the sun coming out and said, "It's almost done."
Qin Eryi was startled, "Don't you mean you don't know when the army will come?"
Tao Zhun said: "The time has been agreed upon in advance. Don't blame me for not telling you. These matters are of great importance. The lives of you and me are small, but the harm to the Duke is big. I don't know, it is a blessing!"
"
You know, all those pressures have been absorbed.
Ma Guidu muttered: "We will not betray the Duke, right?"
"For many things, the more rigorous the better."
Tao Zhun stood up and said, "Go to the city gate and follow my eyes. Remember, if you take action, kill the captain first, followed by the old soldier."
"Why kill the old soldier first? The old soldier must be afraid of death!"
"Old soldiers are afraid of death, so they are smart. Kill the smartest ones, and the rest will be just a mob."
What he didn't say was that the ones left were not just a mob, but people who dared to fight.
However, those who dare to fight have few strategies and only need to fight with blood.
The three of them rubbed their stomachs and complained that they had nothing to eat. They went out to the city to get some wild vegetables and cook them in a pot to fill their stomachs.
One advantage of spring is that there are many wild vegetables.
But just eating wild vegetables is not enough, you must have rice and noodles.
There were more than twenty sergeants in the city gate, and the officer leading the team was lazily squatting behind and eating.
Tao Zhun looked up and saw hundreds of soldiers on top of the city.
If he mobilized, what he wanted to fight for was to keep the city gate open before hundreds of people rushed down.
He had his hands folded in his sleeves, his face, which had not been washed since the day he set out, looked dirty, and his hair was all tangled, making him look like a beggar.
Qin Er whispered behind him: "I have a sharp sword, so I'll kill the captain first!"
The one who strikes first is the most dangerous... Tao Zhun said: "I'll do it."
"Xiaoqi..."
There were footsteps behind me.
Ma Gui turned around and saw dozens of beggars coming with sticks.
So aggressive!
"Xiaoqi, they are those beggars."
Tao Zhun looked back and said, "As the dog said, you came at the wrong time."
"The army hasn't come either, how about we have a fight with them first?"
This is nonsense.
Three beggars beat away dozens of beggars. No matter how stupid the defenders were, they still had to come and check their identities.
Tao Zhun thought about it.
According to the commander, military discipline is like a mountain. If you arrive at the agreed time, arriving even one moment late is a serious crime.
So, never mind.
No, you can use it.
He turned around and was about to speak when he heard music.
It looks like a flute.
"He's here to pick up the bride." Someone at the city gate laughed.
"Be careful and refuse to pull up."
The team officer was very cautious.
There were not many people in the procession to pick up the bride. There were more than ten people guarding the carriage. Someone in the front played the flute and someone in the back shouted happy words.
Seeing someone pulling the horse outside, the matchmaker said: "Pay attention later and pull the horse away first."
This matter is still a bit troublesome...
Once a fight breaks out, the defenders at the top of the city will definitely come down for reinforcements. Later, Wang Laoer and his army will come. Juma only needs to block it for a moment, and the defenders in the city will arrive.
At the city gate, some of the soldiers turned around and found the beggars who were about to fight.
Tao Zhun and the others were preparing to leave the city, but they were regarded as fleeing.
"How about stopping them?" A sergeant said jokingly: "It would be more interesting to watch them fight."
"In these extraordinary times, don't be too troublesome. After Yang Gou is defeated by Lin Shijun, you can do whatever you want!" the team officer stopped his subordinates.
Tao Zhun had a look of surprise on his face, but he seemed to be trying his best to endure it, "Master, those are thieves."
The beggars who were chasing after him heard this and became angry.
"Kill them!"
Tao Zhun took his hand out of his cuff and found a short knife.
The short knife stabbed into the captain's chest. At the same time, he pulled out the long knife from the captain's waist and shouted: "Kill!"
This was to create confusion so that the defenders at the top of the city could not figure out what was going on below.
Qin Er rushed over like a ferocious tiger, killed one person with one blow, then grabbed the long knife, and with a flash of light, he rushed out of the city gate to kill him.
Behind him, dozens of beggars were stunned.
The team picking up the bride was also stunned for a moment.
This is Jinyiwei!
Tu Shang shouted: "Send the signal and follow me."
He rushed out on horseback. When he rushed to the side of the carriage, he reached out and picked up the spear from the side of the carriage.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Amidst the sound of the horn, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance.
The defenders at the top of the city were stunned. Someone shouted: "The enemy is attacking! It's Yang Gou who's coming!"
"alert!"
"There are Yang Gou's spies under the city, kill them!"
Only then did the dozens of beggars realize that the people fighting for their territory were not beggars, but three secret spies from Northern Xinjiang.
what to do?
Evacuate immediately!
Otherwise, you can only wait to die!
The leading beggar shouted: "Help them!"
As he spoke, he rushed over first, raised his wooden stick, and struck the head with it, knocking out a sergeant who had his back turned to him.
The eldest brother took action, most of the remaining beggars ran away, and the rest actually followed.
"Kill!"
Tao Zhun and the others were locked in a tough fight and were about to be suppressed.
But suddenly the pressure eased, and a group of beggars were seen charging at them with sticks.
Although there was no plan, the defenders did not expect anyone coming from behind, and they were immediately fooled.
Why is this?
Tao Zhun was stabbed twice and had no time to think about it at the moment, so he shouted: "Get out of the way!"
Ta-ta-ta!
Tu Shang rushed over on his own.
"Fire the arrow!"
A wave of arrows rained down from the top of the city.
The spear danced, and then Tu Chang rushed in.
"Get out of the way!"
Tao Zhun shouted to the beggars.
The beggar leader was stabbed. In despair, when he saw the flickering shadow of the gun, his opponent flew away.
One ride!
Holding a gun in one hand and a flag in the other!
"The King's Flag!"
Tu Changpi, who rushed into the city, threw out the flag and planted it on the ground.
Then he turned around.
Riding alone to face the rushing defenders.
Ta-ta-ta!
Three thousand horses swept in.
In the city gate, Tao Zhun walked up to the beggar leader, knelt down on one knee and looked at him.
"Why help Beijiang?"
The beggar leader was stabbed in the chest and looked like he was dying.
He smiled and said: "It is said that under the rule of the Duke... there are no beggars! Everyone has food to eat."
Tao Zhun raised his hand and slapped his cheek expressionlessly.
one time.
Next.
"Is there really... a place without beggars?"
The leader asked Tao Zhun, whose cheeks were swollen.
