Chapter Thirty-ninth: Laiwu County

"Congratulations to Mr. Zhu. The morale of the army has been greatly boosted. From now on, all the people have returned home." Zhao Shizhe followed the team and saw the whole process of the march, and couldn't help but feel a little admiration.

Zhu Yiyuan led the rebel army in the front, and people from all over the country rushed to support him. The army and the people were united, and the top and bottom were integrated... This is the king's style that can only be seen in the book. Although the scale is a bit small, it is enough to make people feel inspired.

With a smile on his face, Zhu Yiyuan suddenly said: "Dongshangong, Wansheng attacked the slaves of the Kong family this time. As the leader of Shandong Shilin, sir, you won't blame Wansheng, right?"

"Blame it?" Zhao Shizhe seemed to have heard some funny joke, "You think I am a rotten scholar who is ignorant of worldly affairs? To tell you the truth, among all the cabinet ministers and ministers in the Ming Dynasty, who didn't hate the Confucian family? It's just that the tree has deep roots and is difficult to shake.

When Grand Master Zhang took charge of the country, he implemented a whipping method, which was to attack the Confucius family, which was very popular. Mr. Zhu only confiscated the Confucius family's property in Laiwu, but did not touch the ancestral property in Qufu. He did not touch the real Confucius family. It was too late for me to be happy. "

Zhu Yiyuan pondered for a moment and couldn't help but laugh: "I heard Dongshangong said, do you think I'm too timid?"

Zhao Shizhe was startled, and before he could answer, he saw that Zhu Yiyuan turned his head and said to the rebels and the villagers: "Everyone, listen to my order and march towards Laiwu County."

Want to attack Laiwu?

Liu Bao was stunned. They didn't have siege equipment now. In the past, they had to rely on internal support to break Zichuan County. Could it be that Mr. Zhu sent people into the county?

It's really unpredictable.

Liu Bao showed admiration. As for Luo Yi, Cuncui was eager to rush in.

They led the rebel soldiers and headed towards Laiwu County with high spirits.

Militiamen from various villages also followed, and everyone was still immersed in joy and excitement.

The Kong family has no more rent collectors, and with the golden autumn harvest, they can finally fill their stomachs.

For many years, I have no idea what it feels like to be full.

At dawn, Zhu Yiyuan had already led his people to the outskirts of the county town.

Laiwu County, which is more than two feet high, stands in front of you.

Zhu Yiyuan looked at the city with great interest. There was no sheep and horse wall, and the moat was almost flattened by siltation, so it was of little use.

Looking at the city wall again, it is quite dilapidated and mottled, and even has cracks.

Just like most counties, the armaments are lax and this is the situation that has been going on for many years.

Everyone looked at Zhu Yiyuan, as if he was going to order an attack on the city in the next second...

"People in the city, listen."

Zhu Yiyuan was one hundred and fifty steps away and shouted loudly, "We came to the city today. We are not here to destroy the city. We just want to tell you that the autumn harvest will come soon. Take care of your minions, eagles and dogs, and don't do anything."

Go out of the city and disturb the people. If you dare to reach out, we will cut off your dog's paws!"

After Zhu Yiyuan finished speaking, there was no response from the city. There seemed to be no one at the top of the lifeless city.

However, Zhu Yiyuan knew that there must be someone inside. Kong Fan ran away in a hurry and could only hide in the city. It was impossible for people in the city not to know.

Zhu Yiyuan looked at his subordinates again and asked: "Is there anyone among you who has excellent archery skills?"

Upon hearing this, a rebel soldier came out immediately with a strong bow on his back.

"Mr. Zhu, I was born as an Orion and served in the army. I dare not say that I can cross the Yangtze River with a hundred steps. It's almost the same."

"Well, you go up and shoot an arrow at the top of the city."

The rebel was overjoyed when he heard this. He held a long bow in his hand and suddenly ran forward, keeping his eyes on the city head. When he saw that he was in the distance, he stopped suddenly, stretched out his hand and drew out an arrow, stretched his arms, and slightly stretched his back.

Shen, the arrow shot away from the meteor and just penetrated the green flag at the top of the city.

He tore a big hole in the flag that symbolized the Green Camp.

"OK!"

The rebels were cheering, and the soldier actually pulled out another arrow, drew the string of his bow, and nailed it right on the plaque on the top of the city.

Buy one get one free, double surprise!

"It's so amazing, the sharpshooter, Sai Huarong!"

Good guy, Li Guang is Sheng Youji, Hua Rong is Xiao Li Guang, and now there is Sai Hua Rong, and there are only a few co-authors of the Archer, and they are passed on one by one.

Zhu Yiyuan was in a good mood. He smiled and shouted to the city: "Remember what I said, don't say I didn't predict it!"

Confucius' courtyard was raided and arrows were shot at Laiwu City.

Although Zhu Yiyuan didn't kill anyone that night, he smashed two shackles on the people one after another... This is like a statue of a god. It is enshrined there to be solemn. But if it falls into a cesspit and is fished out again, who will be there?

Are you willing to kneel down?

Zhu Yiyuan has obtained the exact information from Pu Pan. Now, the actual number of troops in Laiwu City is less than 500, their morale is low, and people are panicked.

More than 200 people were killed in Dawen Village at one time, and the rest died without leaving the city.

The county magistrate was desperately asking for help, but all the Qing troops in Shandong went to deal with Xie Qian, and it was impossible to tell the difference between the troops and the horses.

If you can defend the city without losing anything, even if it is a meritorious service, why would you dare to act so arrogantly?

Zhu Yiyuan made these calculations and took action decisively.

Improve your own military morale and establish prestige. With this foundation, the next thing will be convenient.

Zhu Yiyuan achieved his goal and led the rebel army to prepare to retreat.

At this moment, on top of the city, Kong Fan was staring at the magistrate, and said angrily: "Is your lord so afraid of thieves that you don't even dare to show your face?"

The magistrate rolled his eyes at him and said, "How dare you run away? Are you capable of dying in battle?"

Kong Fan was speechless. After a long while, he could only shake his head and lament, "It's over. Laiwu, which has always been peaceful, suddenly a group of thieves appeared. Where did they come from? How can I tell Yan Sheng Gong?"

He looked bitter, and the county magistrate seemed to be aware of the problem. It seemed that the other party did not leave a name, and he did not know who he was, and he could not explain it to the governor.

But he didn't have the courage, so he could only yell at the master, "Go and ask."

Master Fang was stupid. How could he have the courage? His arrows were so accurate. If it hit his throat, he would be dead! He only had ten taels of silver a month. What kind of fate could he risk?

The county magistrate didn't care about this, "Hurry up, don't waste your time."

Master Fang was so frightened that he could only raise his head, hold on to the crenel, and shout outside.

But what to call it?

Called a thief?

Not suitable.

Call me sir, and my sir will be right next to you.

This man was considered to have some brains, and he trembled and shouted: "What a good man!"

As soon as the word "三" was spoken, the magistrate's hypotension was cured.

Fuck you, good man, that’s a thief, does the thief know?

But before Master Fang could say anything else, something hit him hard on the bridge of his nose, and blood suddenly spurted out.

Master Fang's vision went dark and he fell down.

"Sir, the humble position is dead! The humble position is dead!"

The magistrate was also startled, but when he looked again, he saw that it was just a stone, far away from death. He was also blind. Next time he went to find the master, he could not make money by looking for someone who could only make money. He had to find someone who was bold, otherwise he would be too brave.

Shameful.

Master Fang turned out to be the only injured person that night, which was really unlucky.

And the person who achieved this result was just a half-grown child.

His name was Wang Huan. He used to herd sheep for the landlord. In order to drive away the sheep, he practiced throwing stones. Later, people who listened to the opera said that there was a man in Liangshan who had no feather arrows and was a master at throwing stones.

Wang Huan regained his energy and started practicing hard. After a few years, he could throw accurately and hard.

Watching the rebel uncle shoot two arrows in a row, he won the title of Sai Huarong.

He also became interested, but he couldn't throw a stone a hundred steps.

Wang Huan braved his courage and ran down the city. He was so small that no one noticed him. Just when he was fifty steps away and almost dead, Master Fang stuck his head out.

That's him!

Wang Huan succeeded with one blow, he couldn't help being happy, and ran back with his butt sticking out.

When the militiamen saw this, they burst into laughter again, what a bullshit official, that's all.

This guy is really good!

Everyone is happier than during the Chinese New Year, but things are miserable in the county town.

Because a few days ago, the governor ordered that the grain stocks in the city be transferred away to supply military supplies. Now the treasury in the city is empty. I hoped that it would be replenished immediately after the autumn harvest, and that would be fine.

But now the thieves are here, and they are not allowed to leave the city or collect their land tax.

Without food, wouldn't all the people in the county be starved to death?

It's going to kill you!

The magistrate looked around and happened to see Master Fang who had just treated his wound.

"It's you. Go out of the city now and talk to the thieves outside the city for me."

Master Fang sat down on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, this is a serious crime of being a thief!"

The magistrate gritted his teeth and said: "I can't care less. Losing the city and losing the land will also destroy the nine tribes. If you be accommodating to them, you might be able to survive... I also dealt with Li Zicheng in the past, and I am familiar with the virtues of thieves."

Master Fang bravely said: "Master, if you are familiar with it, you can go ahead. I am young..."

Before he could finish speaking, a fist hit him hard on the nose. The wound burst open instantly and blood flowed wildly...
