Originally, the Hebei Forbidden Army troops including the Daming Prefecture Left-behind Division, Cangzhou, Chanzhou, Mingzhou, and Yongjing Army were gathered together. Chen Xizhen and Zhu Yongqing from Zhujiazhuang thought they could pose a huge threat to the three mountain bandits on Jingdong Road. But first
The Yanggu County seat was quickly attacked by the strong bandits. Ximen Qing, Jing Zhong, Wen and Wu were all killed. Later, the general of the army, Guan Sheng, was captured. The Imperial Guards were left behind at Feihu Valley and Huaishu Slope.
In a major defeat, Quan Yu, the leader of several mountains, led his troops to the gates of Damingfu City. Even the soldiers and horses from the four states who came to rescue were defeated separately. Not only did all the commanders and generals die in the battle, the war also spread to Gaotang Prefecture.
The prefect Gao Lian was also killed by the bandits...
Apart from Xiao Tang's original identity, Chen Xizhen has never met "Quan Yu" until now. He knew that the leader of the Green Forest Mountains was difficult to offend, but he never expected that the Green Forest soldiers and horses under his command would be so powerful.
The soldiers and horses that he regarded as strong reinforcements were all wiped out by the bandit leader one after another as if they were dead! Originally, he came to Jingdong Road in order to accumulate military exploits for the bandits so that he could become an official, but now he is like this
The situation, who is going to cheat whom?
Originally, I heard reports that several officers and soldiers under the control of Hebei and Lianglu were gathering to prepare to go south, and the soldiers and horses from Qingzhou and Qingzhou Mountains who were approaching Dulonggang also made some moves and mobilized many soldiers and horses to go north. Chen Xizhen, Zhu Yongqing and others were not at all worried.
However, Song Jiang and Wu Yong led the Liangshan Army to hold on until the allied commander Quan Yu returned with his troops. There were still Lu Zhishen, Shi Bao and other powerful generals in Qingzhou's two mountain villages who led their troops to block the entrance of Dulong Gang.
Every time the group moved, they saw a huge force of strong soldiers and horses in front of them, and a group of horse and infantry soldiers lined up in a dense formation. They saw flags fluttering in the wind, and swords, guns, swords and halberds standing upright like a forest.
Rows of long archers rushed forward, immediately drew their bows and set arrows, and aimed their cold arrow clusters at the sky...
Nowadays, the number of soldiers and horses on his side is limited. Even if Chen Xi truly knew that the soldiers and horses led by Quan Yu were temporarily entangled with the troops in Hebei Province and were separated from the soldiers and horses in the green forests of Liangshan, he could not be sure that he would be able to occupy the upper peak.
However, it only took some time until news came from the north, but the news of the defeat of the Hebei Forbidden Army troops came one after another!
Zhujiazhuang is just a local powerhouse. Although the size of Zhujiazhuang Town is much larger than that of those village courtyards, it is not a famous city with mountains and rivers, high walls and deep moats. As for the front of Dulonggang
The terrain of the poplar trees on Pantuo Road, the traps of bitter bamboo sticks, and iron caltrops... It is still useful for local tyrants to deal with the limited-scale bandits in the green forest, but once the scale of the war between the two sides increases,
Upgraded, the enemy troops came over flatly with a superior force, and the iron caltrops traps on Pantuo Road were more like children's games. Now even Chen Xizhen didn't know if the three mountain bandits on Jingdong Road were gathering.
When they were in one place and launched an all-out attack there, how long could Zhujiazhuang be able to sustain it?
Although during the year in Zhujiazhuang, the villagers and officers and soldiers were dressed in military uniforms and armed with swords and guns patrolling in and out of Zhujiazhuang, they still looked fierce and murderous, but Chen Xizhen could clearly feel the panic.
Emotions have begun to spread in Zhujiazhuang, especially among those who were originally local villagers in Zhujiazhuang. Although they still dare not speak out, the look of resentment and resentment in their eyes has become more and more obvious.
However, for many villagers in Zhujiazhuang who have lived here for generations, they have no way out. Chen Xizhen came to Jingdong Road to attack the bandits on this trip, but he still has a way out.
Chen Xizhen also thought of retreating from the back of Zhujiazhuang via Puzhou and Xingren Mansion to the important area of Gyeonggi Road. However, after tentatively sending a few troops to scout, there were suddenly ambushes in Puzhou and other places.
The strong bandit soldiers and horses came out, but the leader was a strong bandit leader who was also dressed as a Taoist. They cut off the roads and killed some soldiers and horses. The rest of the people who were sent out to scout had to flee back to Zhu's house in panic.
Zhuang Lai. Fortunately, the strong ambush troops along the way seemed to only be intercepting and not pursuing them. They seemed not to take Zhujiazhuang's group seriously at all, and they were sure that Quan Yu, Song Jiang and others were on the other side.
The big bandit leader will definitely be able to crush him from the front, so they can just sit back and wait here.
Naturally, Chen Xizhen doesn't know yet. Mr. Li Zhu, the Jinjian who has been instigating the temporary alliance between Shuibo Liangshan and Qingzhou Dazhai from beginning to end, is now like a poisonous snake coiling quietly at the entrance of the cave, waiting for the real prey.
After being driven here and then suddenly coming out of the cave to take a bite, the direction of the battle so far has basically been within Li Zhu's expectations.
This plan of giving up Zhujiazhuang and immediately heading towards the capital was put aside by Chen Xizhen. Every day, the sentinels of the bandits roared past Zhujiazhuang, and the soldiers and horses stationed on the city walls did not look like they were doing anything.
In the past, I dared to occasionally go out to fight, but I could only stare at the strong bandits showing off their power. At the same time, the large areas of farmland under the name of the Zhu family outside the village were also occupied by strong bandit soldiers and horses. The Zhu family was a close family member, and the army in the village was
The leaders can still eat meat and meat, but the remaining officers and soldiers are healthy, and the villagers and civilians can only rely on coarse grains and wild vegetables to fill their stomachs. Even so, Zhu Hu and Zhu Biao have already begun to plan to use the officers and soldiers to conquer the bandits.
They forcibly requisitioned all the wine shops, inns and even the tenant farmers' hard-earned rations in Zhujiazhuang so that they could continue to fight against the invading bandits.
Although Chen Xizhen would not care about the gains and losses of those fighting for promotion as long as it was beneficial to the war situation, but the battle had already reached this point, and a very obvious signal had been sent to him: if Zhujiazhuang continues like this, it will also
Definitely can't hold on anymore.
It was not until his fierce general Gou Huan led his troops out of the village to investigate that they encountered the Liangshan Army Liu Tang and Yang Xiong's troops fought in a bloody battle. They managed to escape and returned to Zhujiazhuang, where they immediately reported that they were still indifferent.
The strong soldiers and horses of the three mountains and green forests made some moves, and when Quan Yu, the leader of several mountains, and his army seemed to join forces with Song Jiang's troops, Chen Xizhen finally made up his mind.
"Originally, I had no idea. Even though there were many fierce generals among the mountain bandits of Quan Yu and Song Jiang, I could only stick to Zhuang Town, and then secretly teach Ximen Xianggong to go back and forth, and go to Daming Mansion to fly to the left-behind division to mobilize troops and select them.
General, many officers and troops will be divided into two groups to conquer the bandits in Liangshanbo and Qingzhou Mountains. I hope that the bandits will not want to fight and will retreat and rush back to guard the bandits' nest. At that time, we will pursue them together and coordinate with the officers and soldiers on the two routes in Hebei.
A sure win...
Unexpectedly, Quan Yu, the iron-faced Xie Zhi, had already become a traitor. It was a pity that he could not get rid of this henchman for the imperial court as soon as possible. I was afraid that the leader of thieves and bandits would also become a big disaster in the future. Unfortunately, all the officers and soldiers in all the states in Hebei were defeated.
, the strong bandits from the three mountains will take advantage of the power of victory to attack here again, and I am afraid that we will not be able to hold on... If it is my wish, I can only abandon Zhujiazhuang and concentrate our forces on the capital.
Fight on the other side of the road to avoid being harmed by thieves."
In the festival hall of the main residence of Zhujiazhuang, Chen Xizhen's face was as dark as water, and he was speaking in a deep voice to the men and women present. However, his words fell slightly, and he sounded like Zhu Hu, Zhu Biao and other local young directors of Zhujiazhuang, as well as
Chen Liqing, Gao Liang and others impatiently started making noises. Among them, Yun Long, the son of Yun Tianbiao, stood up and said angrily: "Chen Daozi! You and my father have the same enemy, and you are determined to wipe out those few people who have wiped out Jingdong Road.
The mountain is full of tough thieves and fierce bandits. Now my father has been killed by those bandits who deserve to be cut into pieces with a thousand knives. My nephew just wants to cut them all alive! Now that the strong bandits are coming to Dulonggang, they are trying their best to kill the thieves.
, A public person does his best for the country, and a private person avenges his father! But Chen Daozi said that he wanted to abandon this place, but do you still remember what you said to your father at that time!? You..."
Originally, Yunlong deeply hated his father Yun Tianbiao, who was seriously injured by a meteor hammer from a bandit leader among the three mountains and green forest soldiers, and then died with hatred. He was the first to jump out to oppose Chen Xizhen's proposal to abandon Zhujiazhuang, but he
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly paused. Because Yunlong was extremely resentful, but he was shocked to find that Chen Xizhen was not as calm as usual at this time, and even looked a bit like an immortal. He said coldly
Staring at himself, his face was filled with anger, and there seemed to be a faint murderous aura in those moves!
