A wooden javelin was thrown from the beacon tower in front.
Niyaha directly blocked the javelin with his left arm, and then flicked his right hand to throw the flying rope connected to the iron claw onto the beacon tower. With another pull, the iron claw hooked onto the beacon wall.
After Vasinga was seriously injured, Niyaha temporarily took over the post of Baya Lazhangjing.
As soon as the new official took office, Niyaha made up his mind to make as many military exploits as possible in this battle south to plunder the south of the Yangtze River, and completely secure the position of Baya Lazhangjing.
At that moment, Niyaha held the zip line and climbed up the beacon tower by stepping on the rammed earth wall.
The three village warriors who were guarding the beacon tower suddenly became anxious. They leaned out from behind the protective wall and threw stones down.
However, the other two Ye Buzui who were guarding both sides of the beacon tower had been waiting for this for a long time. They immediately drew their bows and arrows and shot two heavy arrows at the few village warriors on the beacon tower.
A rural hero was shot dead on the spot.
The other two fellow warriors saw the opportunity early and quickly retreated.
But after such a delay, Niyaha had already climbed up.
The height of the beacon tower is only over two feet, so climbing is not difficult.
Niyaha climbed over the protective wall and jumped into the beacon tower. He took out the sword from his waist, placed it across his chest, and slowly approached the two country warriors who had retreated to the corner.
The two village warriors gritted their teeth and charged side by side with their bamboo spears.
This reaction surprised Niyaha. He was just a brave country man, but he had such courage?
If it were the border troops of the Ming Dynasty, they would have turned around and fled long ago when they encountered the Baya La soldiers, and then they would have been shot like rabbits on the way to escape.
Niyaha immediately changed her mind.
He cut off the tips of two bamboo spears with his backhand, and Niyaha said again: "Kneel down and beg for surrender. I can spare your life, and I can also accept you as a wrapper!"
The accent is a bit strong, but I can understand it.
The two heroes looked at each other and cursed at the same time.
"Your mother, how can a good man like me, grandpa, be a slave of a barbarian like you!"
While yelling, the two village warriors thrust their pointed bamboo poles toward Niyaha's door.
However, this was not a fair fight at all. Niyaha just turned his head slightly, and two bamboo poles brushed against his face. He casually flicked the saber in his hand and disemboweled a country hero.
Finally, the country hero got scared and jumped off the beacon tower to run away.
But as soon as the man hit the ground, a heavy arrow hit him, nailing him to the rammed earth wall of the beacon tower.
The Baya La soldiers who were shooting arrows stepped forward and pulled out the arrows, and said to Niyaha who was descending from the edge of the rope: "Master Zhang Jing, these Ming dogs are better than those Ming Dynasty border troops. They can be regarded as men."
"Where did all this nonsense come from? Let's go!"
Niyaha turned over and got on the horse.
The other two bagaras also got on their horses.
Soon, the three Jian slaves left without being collected at night.
Behind them, the smoke on the beacon tower has been extinguished.
…
At this time in Suining County, one of the guns was fired.
China has gathered ninety local warriors from the Gun Tower at Gun Tower Square.
After looking around the entire team, Hua Xia shouted with a straight face: "Recite the concise terms of the order to me again!"
"Yes!" The ninety village warriors agreed loudly, and then began to recite the terms, "Everyone's ears, only listen to the trumpets and drums; everyone's eyes, only see the lights and flags; if the trumpets, drums, lights and flags don't move, even if the sky falls, they are not allowed to move!"
"If you have to advance when you beat the drum, you have to advance even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead of you!"
"If the rallying horn sounds, even the mountains of gold and silver in front of us will have to retreat!"
After several months of hard training and collective recitation, the village warriors had already memorized Chongzhen's revised performance book by heart, especially the most important concise terms of orders.
After the local heroes finished reciting, Hua Xia said again: "Today I will tell you about the meaning of war. Do you think this war is fought for the Holy Sage and for the Ming Dynasty?"
"I'm telling you now, no, this is for your own sake!"
"The loss of Suining County is nothing more than the loss of a small county town for the Holy Emperor and the Ming Dynasty."
"But for you, what you have lost is your home, the piece of land that your ancestors have relied on for generations, and your parents will also die tragically under the butcher knife of the slaves, and your wives and daughters will also suffer.
If the slaves commit adultery, your children and grandchildren will become the slaves of the slaves, and they will never be able to turn over for generations to come!"
"So think about it carefully, if you don't stay here,"
"What will be the consequences if you run away?"
The expressions of the local heroes gradually became solemn, because Hua Xia painted a terrible scene.
In a daze, the plays sung by the National Disaster Troupe reappeared in front of their eyes, including Three Massacres in Kaiyuan, Ten Days in Liaodong, and Jiannu Massacre in Beijing. This was terrible.
Hua Xia added: "On the contrary, if you don't run away, if you show your determination to fight the enemy to the death on the battlefield, Jiannu may not fight to the death in Suining County. In any case, this is just a small town. Once the price to be paid is far away,
If the benefits exceed what can be obtained, the slaves will retreat."
"If the slaves retreat, this land will be preserved."
"Your parents, wives, and children will also be preserved."
"Even if you die in battle, the imperial court will provide you with compensation according to the standards of frontier soldiers. Not only will your names be engraved on the Martyrs' Shrine in front of Taizu's Mausoleum, but your parents, wives, and children will also receive fifty taels of silver.
In addition to these two things, there is also a more important point!"
After saying this, Hua Xia said again: "Your son will be recommended to study in the Imperial College! If you don't have a son, you can also enroll your son or nephew in the Imperial College. After graduating from the Imperial College, you can join the scholar camp and serve as a scholar!"
Hearing this, even if the ninety local warriors lined up on the gun platform were not calm, could they still be loyal princes?
In the past six months of spending time with China, these local warriors have become very clear about the title of Qin Wang Shizi.
Because Hua Xia is a diligent scholar, the county masters must be respectful when meeting him. The government servants and subordinates in the county are usually domineering and domineering, but since Hua Xia came, these government servants and subordinates have all put their tails between their legs.
, because if you accidentally fall into the hands of the Chinese, you will be beaten with a stick at the least, and you will be executed directly at the worst.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Moreover, the money and food that Prince Qin passed was measured in cantons!
Therefore, in the eyes of these local warriors, Prince Qin was a great official!
Thinking that their sons would have the opportunity to study in the Imperial College, and then be able to serve as a scholar after graduation, these local heroes could no longer calm down. Death suddenly didn't seem so scary!
Looking at the light in the eyes of these local heroes, you know that the encouragement is in place.
Hua Xia then went to the next gun platform and continued to summon ninety local warriors for training.
Later, Hua Xia felt that this was too slow, so they asked Wang Pohu to lead his soldiers to gather 900 local warriors from each of the ten gun stations to one gun station for unified training, which was much faster.
I was busy until noon when I finally finished the lecture to Xiang Yong.
However, China is still unsure whether it can defend Suining.
As the old saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. For a local brave, a pension of fifty taels after death in battle, plus a son or a son to study in the Imperial College, is definitely a real reward.
However, the courage inspired by a large reward is ultimately not as good as the confidence gained from fighting on the battlefield.
The confidence to fight on the battlefield is based on strong self-confidence. Soldiers are often full of firm belief in their own victory, so they have a greater ability to withstand casualties.
It is said that some elite troops can even fight to the last man.
But Huaxia knew that Suining's Xiangyong definitely did not have such a strong endurance.
If only a few dozen or a hundred rural warriors were massacred by the slaves, these warriors might still be able to hold on, but when more than five hundred or even a thousand warriors were killed, they would definitely collapse.
An army that has not been tested in battle cannot have a strong will.
This was said by Chongzhen, and Huaxia and other scholars believed it firmly.
It seems that we can only take a gamble and bet that Jian Nu will not fight them to death in Suining.
At that moment, Hua Xia ordered Wang Pohu: "Pohu, go and gather for me all those village heroes who are poor and have many children, and who are honest and friendly at the same time!"
These village warriors bear heavy burdens and have the strongest endurance.
"Yes." Wang Pohu followed Hua Xia's instructions and quickly gathered together the qualified Xiangyong. There were about nine hundred in total, a ratio of one-tenth.
China organized these more than 900 rural warriors into nine teams.
And let these nine teams of Xiangyong switch to the nine outermost gun platforms in the west.
Before changing defenses, Huaxia once again summoned the nine hundred warriors and lectured them: "You must have heard what I just said. If Jiannu is allowed to attack Suining, your parents, wives, and children will not even be able to survive."
"Don't expect others to fight for you, you can only count on yourself."
"If you withstand it, Suining City will be defended, and your parents, wives, and children will be saved."
"If you dare to escape from the battlefield, even if you are lucky enough to survive, I, China, will never let you go. Not only will you die, but your parents, wives, and children will also die!"
"And if you fight to the death and refuse to retreat, I can guarantee that Jiannu will never waste time in Suining."
"At most we can withstand one or two waves of attacks from Jiannu. I can guarantee that Jiannu will retreat."
"At that time, not only will your parents, wives, and children be saved, but you will also be able to survive, and you will also receive a heavy reward!"
China actually doesn't want to do this, but for these honest country men, threats are sometimes more useful than heavy rewards. They must be made to understand that if they run away from the battle, their whole family will die. If they don't retreat, they can at least save their parents.
My wife and children, with luck, they will also survive.
At this point, all the work that China can do has been completed.
But whether we can finally defend Suining will have to wait for actual combat testing.
In the early afternoon, several Jiannu cavalry appeared in the western suburbs of Suining.
Fortunately, the people outside the city had already evacuated into the county in advance.
