Here Li Guo was worried about gains and losses, and Huang Degong, who was under Zhending City, was also facing a formidable enemy. He ordered Tu Yuan to lead the Black Tiger Camp, and his generals Zhang Jie and Chen Xiance led 5,000 troops to form an array five miles north of the city. The rest retreated to the Hutuo River in the east of the city.
Set up camp.
As for the siege of the city, it was left to Li Muxian's army of refugees, who blocked the four gates of the city and ordered Li Chengdong to lead his troops to help build momentum.
In the city, Ma Shiyao and Ren Jirong saw the mobilization of officers and soldiers. They speculated that reinforcements were coming from the north of the city. They laughed happily. Although they saw the refugees besieging the city, they were not panicked. They even gloated a little. I am very happy in the city. You can do whatever you want outside. Fight as hard as you want.
Fight, kill them all. I will go out of the city to collect your corpses.
"Brother Ma, can you guess who is helping?" Ren Jirong from the government office asked with a drunken look on his face as he raised his glass.
Ma Shiyao chuckled: "The officers and soldiers are advancing and there is civil unrest here. The Lord will definitely be shocked and will send his subordinates to come. As expected, it will be Li Guo's grandson."
"Grandson? Hahaha..." Ren Jirong laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes: "Let these grandsons kill each other outside the city, and let's drink and watch a show."
"If Li Guo's grandson loses, aren't you afraid that the Lord will blame us for not saving him?" Ma Shiyao winked with a smirk on his face.
Ren Jirong said in a serious tone: "Who says we can't save our lives? We are surrounded by refugees and can't save ourselves. We can't get out even if we try to save them. Aren't they the ones who should save us?"
Hahaha, the two of them laughed wildly.
"Seriously, Boss Ren, do you think Li Guo can defeat that yellow dog?" After a while, Ma Shiyao cleared his throat and put away his serious face.
Ren Jirong was slightly silent: "If the Yellow Dog only has this small force, or if the rogue people don't take action, the Yellow Dog will be defeated!"
"Why do you say that?" Ma Shiyao rubbed his nose: "The yellow dog is famous for barking and biting, and the little eunuch is most likely hiding in the dark at this time. Otherwise, how do you think those refugees suddenly
Chaos broke out in a very short period of time. Li Guo may be considered brave and resourceful, but he may still be inferior to that little eunuch."
Ren Jirong chuckled and nodded: "The little eunuch is quite difficult, but think about it, how can the owner not pay attention to such a big civil unrest here? Li Guo came with either heavy troops or elites, as expected, Luo Hu is not bad
The Zhenshan Camp is also here. Think about it. When we were in Taiyuan, the little eunuch couldn't do anything to the Zhenshan Camp. Now we have the right time and the right place and we are fighting at home. If we only have Huang Gou's few people and horses, what can the little eunuch no matter how powerful he is?
Good to go".
"Not to mention that even if we don't take action in the city, we can still make Huang Gou worry about gain and loss. Outside the city, Gu Kecheng plus Li Guo, Luo Hu has at least 20,000 troops. Huang Gou's number of people is really not enough!"
"But now it's hard to guarantee that the yellow dog won't come to help. Plus, the refugees are gathering in chaos to watch, so it's really hard to say whether we will win or lose." Ma Shiyao frowned.
"So let's have a good drink and don't worry so much. If Li Guo wins, we will have a check. If he loses, we will have an excuse to avoid taking responsibility. Let's just watch the show. Besides, the yellow dog's chance of defeat is even higher.
big".
"Report..." At this time, soldiers outside the hall came to report: "The refugees have blocked the city gate outside."
What's all the fuss about? Isn't it always blocked? Ma Shiyao and Ren Jirong were at a loss. Unexpectedly, the soldiers told them that the refugees had gone nearby and blocked the city gate with mud and rocks from the outside.
What the hell, the two of them were shocked. They hurried out of the Yamen and went up to the city to look down. Damn it, it wasn’t the mountains of sand, earth and rocks outside the city gate that had sealed the city gate from the outside.
Ma Shiyao and Ren Jirong were confused by the fact that the refugees were so aggressive. Are they going to stop us from going out?
Hey, this time the excuse is even more perfect! Ren Jirong shrugged with his hands and a smirk on his face, but Ma Shiyao frowned. There was always a bad feeling.
Why did the refugees block the door? Li Muxian would not target without aim, but Huang Degong ordered him to do it. Strong reinforcements from the bandit army came outside the city. If there was an exception, he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat him. He was also worried that Ma Shiyao was determined to come out, and the rabble of refugees could not stop him.
Then just seal the door for him.
So Li Banxian gave an order, and tens of thousands of refugees took action, and the mud, sand, and rocks were nearby. In a blink of an eye, the door was sealed, so Huang Degong had no worries and could concentrate on fighting Li Guo's strong support.
Li Guo came this time and added Luo Hu's Zhenshan camp, which had about ten thousand people. These more than ten thousand people were all elite rebels. With Gu Kecheng's more than ten thousand partial troops and some cannon fodder, the strength should not be underestimated.
If he had faced such a powerful opponent in the past, Huang Degong would most likely have avoided giving him a head-on challenge, but it was different now. In addition to tens of thousands of cannon fodder around him who could fill holes at any time, there were also formation-rushing generals like Tu Yuan.
, you have to fight to know who will die.
Huang Degong expected that when Li Guo first arrived, he would not start fighting immediately. He would definitely have to find out the situation before taking action. It was already dark now, and the fastest he could take action would be tomorrow morning, so he had time to deploy troops and generals to formulate tactics.
.
While sending detective horses to keep an eye on the rebel camp, they made fires to make food and rest the troops and horses. At the same time, they anxiously discussed how to respond to the battle with their generals. Then Li Banxian in the west of the city received an order and ordered him to prepare cannon fodder to fill the pit.
Li Banxian immediately started acting like a demon and beguiling the believers. Now we have people with swords who have formed their own sect and no one is afraid of them. Now the officers and soldiers are suppressing the thieves and there is no benefit for us to watch from the side. Before, we used to be cannon fodder for the thieves and resisted the officers and soldiers in exchange for nothing more than a mouthful of gruel.
Now the officers and soldiers have set a price. After helping to defeat the thieves, they will share the stolen goods. So what are you waiting for? I just want to ask you if you want to do it!
Tens of thousands of people shouted in unison: "Fuck!" Ma Shiyao and Ren Jirong, who were drinking in the city, were so frightened that their faces turned pale. Who the hell were they scolding?
Li Chengdong originally had nearly a thousand captive soldiers under his command, and these prisoners were all open-minded. They had no time to escape and became prisoners and became officers and soldiers in the city. At first, they were unwilling to accept it, but after a few days, they saw that the officers and soldiers were becoming more and more powerful, and now they were in an uproar.
Hai, he gave up his thoughts of escaping and thought to himself, who should I follow? It was just a matter of course with the officers and soldiers, and the momentum was so good at the moment, so I just followed him.
Of course, the happiest person is Li Chengdong. When he was seconded from Gao Jie, he only had a dozen people. He trained prisoners and formed more than a thousand troops in Zhaozhou. Now in the blink of an eye, he has become Li Muchian's first general to protect the law, commanding an army of nearly ten thousand cannon fodder.
, Don’t be too awesome! This wealth and momentum are no worse than those of the General Soldiers.
Li Chengdong was ordered to lead an army of more than 10,000 guardians to replace Tu Yuan and Chen Xiance. The three troops camped five miles north of the city to guard against a raid by the rebels. Later, Li Muchian put psychological pressure on Li Guo in order to build momentum, leaving more than 10,000 refugees to besiege the city and ordered the rest to
Tens of thousands of people marched north to Li Chengdong with great momentum.
This scene was reported to Li Guo after being investigated by Detective Ma, which really shocked him. Officers and soldiers were watching eagerly in the east of the city, but Ma Shiyao was besieged by the refugees and unable to move. And those refugees now had their own army and gathered in the north of the city with unknown intentions.
Li Yan felt that he had seriously lost his composure. It was okay to talk about the refugees causing trouble, but it would be very bad if the officers and soldiers took advantage of him.
But at this moment, someone reported that two military advisors, Gu Junen and Song Xiance, were coming. Li Yan was overjoyed and personally welcomed him to the commander's tent to discuss how to kill the enemy and put an end to the chaos.
Song Xiance and Gu Junen listened to the situation in front of them, and after a brief discussion, they decided: fight one by one and negotiate with the refugees!
It would be best if we could pull the officers and soldiers over to fight together. It would be fine to step back and let them watch without moving. If not, it would be fine to let them release Ma Shiyao in the city. This is the bottom line!
"What if the other party is shameless?" Luo Hu asked.
"Then we have to mobilize a large army to suppress them and kill them all! Although there are many refugees in front of us, don't forget that there are still hundreds of thousands behind us. Cannon fodder fights cannon fodder, and we will die as many as we want!" Song Xiance is also a ruthless character!
"This is the last resort. It is not advisable to use too much force at the moment, for fear of incurring his wrath, it is difficult to stop!" Gu Junen advised: "This is the time when the Lord wins the most support from the people, and it is also the time when we need the people's support, and we should not go on a killing spree.
You need to be careful, be careful!”
"Let's talk first and then scare them. If they don't retreat, we should let them see blood." Li Guo said coldly: "How about we talk now?"
