The Little Tiger Team moved quickly. Not long after everyone sent Shen Jingbang away, Li Laiheng summoned the generals of the camp and the village leaders, and announced a plan to directly attack Pingfeng Village.
Although everyone's morale was very high due to the legend of Longsha Prophecy concocted by Li Laiheng and Fang Yiren. After all, Yu Dazhong had accumulated a lot of power in Xiong'er Mountain. When it came time to attack Pingfeng Village, people like Li Hao and Pu Xiang
, I still feel a little flustered.
Although Li Hao no longer suffered from the pain of losing his son, he showed the same stupid look as before, holding his head and crying at every turn. But he still had no confidence. He asked tentatively: "Are we...are we really
Do you want to directly attack Pingfeng Village? But Yu Dazhong built Pingfeng Village to be extremely dangerous and solid, which is completely different from the field battle. Even if we are in the field battle, we can defeat the miner army, but in the siege, there is no greater troop advantage. It is really not certain
We can capture Pingfeng Village."
Before Li Laiheng could speak, Bai Wang smiled and said: "Master Li, now even Yuzhai has expressed support for us, so Yu Dazhong is over. But no matter how well-established it is, we still have to do it with our own hands for the last time.
Just take it."
Li Hao, Pu Xiangzhenren and other copycat village owners still looked hesitant on their faces. They looked at each other and felt that they were intimidated by the accumulated power of Pingfeng Village and still lacked confidence.
Li Laiheng winked at Gao Yigong and persuaded him: "Pingfeng Village is by no means monolithic. Don't the several village owners have acquaintances in Pingfeng Village? There are many people in Pingfeng Village who are dissatisfied with Dazhong's domineering behavior.
Went. As long as our attack on the stronghold goes smoothly, the several stronghold leaders will use your respective connections. Compared with those in Pingfeng Stronghold, there will definitely be someone who can cooperate with us and avoid the pain of attacking the stronghold."
Gao Yigong's words made Li Hao and others a little excited, especially since Li Hao had a lot of friends. Although Li Jiazhai and Pingfeng Village had a deep hatred, Li Hao still knew many of the little bosses in Pingfeng Village.
Yu Dazhong's situation was unfavorable, so he mobilized his personal connections and resources, and it was really possible to persuade these small leaders to open the door from inside the village.
Li Laiheng saw that Li Hao and others were interested, and then he concluded: "Have you all seen the three-pointers? It is said that attacking the city is at the bottom, and attacking the heart is at the top. As long as a few village leaders can find more connections and find some insiders
, I think it will not be difficult to break the screen wall."
"Aren't the people under him dissatisfied with Yu Dazhong's domineering behavior? I believe that all the village owners, who have been in Xiong'er Mountain for so many years, have been with Pingfeng Village for more than a day or two, and they must have many more connections than I, Li Laiheng, have.
So, I have to leave this to you."
Li Laiheng finally stood up and bid farewell to several village leaders, leaving only the soldiers and horses of his direct lineage who broke into the camp in the house. With a smile on his face, it was rare for the other party to be kind and cheerful, and asked: "Mr. Fang, those newly acquired doors
How are you training the bowl-mouth gun? You still need to use this kind of heavy firearm to attack the stronghold. You have to teach the brothers in the Bird Gun Team how to use this bowl-mouth gun well."
The bowl-mouth blunderbuss is a relatively old-fashioned firearm, which can be regarded as a kind of light cannon. It was popular from the early Ming Dynasty to the Jiajing period. The characteristic of the bowl-mouth blunderbuss is that the mouth of the blunderbuss is raised like a bowl, which is quite different from the general straight artillery in shape, so Li Laiheng
When I first saw it, I didn't know how to use it.
Fortunately, Fang Yiren is familiar with firearms and also knows something about old-fashioned light cannons such as bowl-kou blunderbuss. After Li Hao and several other copycats joined the coalition, they sent a lot of these old-style firearms that no one knew how to use. They were all copied from various copycats.
Things collected while building a stronghold for self-protection.
Although it was not as good as the red barbarian cannon or even the ordinary general cannon. But Li Laiheng thought that it was much better than nothing, so he accepted a lot of them.
Since there is no special artillery team in the Little Tiger Team, Li Laiheng gave these bowl-mouth guns and old-fashioned small general cannons to the soldiers of the Bird Gun Team for use. At any rate, they all knew the properties of gunpowder. Compared with
Ordinary soldiers are more familiar with firearms.
The key is to have Fang Yiren, a firearms expert, give them more training.
When Fang Yiren heard Li Laiheng's question, he replied: "Li... Leader Li is very smart, and he learns quickly. With him leading, the soldiers of the Bird Gun Team released simple-to-operate light artillery such as the bowl-mouth gun."
, is no longer a problem.”
The leader Li mentioned by Fang Yiren was naturally not referring to Li Laiheng, but Li Shiwei, a captain promoted by Li Laiheng from his fellow Mizhi villagers.
After all, Li Laiheng still felt that it was necessary to arrange for his close confidants to control such important things as firearms. Although Li Shiwei was young, he had shown a more meticulous character when managing chores with Uncle Qing, and he was quite studious, so he was arranged by Li Laiheng.
He has reached the position of captain of the musketry team.
"Very good. Shiwei is eager to learn and very capable in doing things. If he has talents in this field, he will be of great use in the future."
Li Laiheng nodded and praised Li Shiwei several times. Although people like Uncle Qing and Hao Yaoqi can be considered his direct descendants, they have already been established. Li Shiwei and Zhang Pili still have a lot of room for cultivation.
Especially Li Shiwei, he is a fellow Mizhi fellow, so he can be regarded as a direct descendant. If he can show more talents, then it will naturally be very suitable to put him in some positions in the future.
"Mr. Fang... ah no, Mr. Leshan," Li Laiheng couldn't help but laugh. Now that he still needed Fang Yiren, he used Fang Yiren's nickname, Leshan, to address him respectfully, "Shiwei is in firearms.
In terms of arithmetic, I have just learned a little bit about it. Most of the firearms such as bird cannons, bowl-mouthed cannons, and general cannons will be left to you, sir, to train. After we break through Pingfeng Village, if everything goes well, sir, you can naturally recover.
Freedom, when the time comes, I will be the first to provide travel expenses to your husband."
"So during this period, I have to work hard for Mr. Leshan for a while."
After Fang Yiren responded with a low eyebrow, he stopped talking. He stood obediently by the side with his hands in one hand, and there was no movement on his face.
Li Laiheng also knew that Fang Yiren was a very evil person, so he should be gentle with him for a day. As long as he didn't cause any trouble, he would just let him go.
The important issue at the moment is still the issue of attacking Pingfeng Village.
"One thing, Lao Bai, everything is ready now, even the east wind is not bad. I think it's time for the brothers to stretch their muscles and bite off the hard bone of Pingfeng Village."
Hearing this, Gao Yigong and Bai Wang both stood up. Bai Wang replied first: "The hearts of the people in Xiong'er Mountain are towards me. Even Li Jiyu, a giant bandit in Zhongzhou, has expressed a friendly attitude towards us. I think
As long as Pingfeng Village is breached again, all the villages and villages in the entire Xiong'er Mountain area will obey our order to break into the camp."
Gao Yigong looked at the sky outside and said: "It's still early today. If we want to formally send troops to attack Pingfeng Village, I think we can go down now and take control of the troops."
"good!"
Li Laiheng took the decision and asked Zhang Pizhu to notify other village leaders to summon soldiers, while he and Hao Yao set up a barracks to control the troops.
During this period of time, he spent time with the soldiers of the Little Tiger Team day and night. He no longer needed to memorize information and tuck in quilts to win the support of the soldiers. As soon as he arrived at the barracks, there were many soldiers there automatically.
Crowded to the door to welcome him.
Although Li Laiheng is no better than Li Zicheng, he can share joys and sorrows with ordinary soldiers and eat and drink equally. But his management skills are also admired by the soldiers. The brothers in the Little Tiger Team all say that Li Laiheng is a "capable person". Moreover, Li Laiheng's attitude towards the soldiers is also very impressive.
Ai Hu, during the days of living, training, and fighting together in Xiaohu Village, it also changed from a "performance" to a real daily life.
Soldiers are not insensitive people. On the contrary, in fierce battles, everyone can instinctively feel which general treats the soldiers with sincerity and which general is truly worthy of everyone's support.
Under such a subtle influence, Li Laiheng naturally no longer needed that hypocritical and artificial performance to win the hearts of the soldiers.
"Brothers, let's go with the management team. Let's go to break the screen village together so that we can give vent to the management team!"
Hao Yaoqi still looked so carefree. His voice was like thunder, and the whole barracks could hear him clearly. After everyone laughed, they put on their armors one by one and lined up to arrange their weapons.
The brothers in the cannon team are the most troublesome. They have to carry cannons, lead bullets, and gunpowder. Now they have to follow Fang Yiren and Li Shiwei to handle and transport the relatively bulky light cannons.
The dark-colored bowl-mouth blunderbuss and the small general cannon still exude a sense of intimidation that prevents strangers from approaching.
Li Laiheng lamented that he tried his best to train the soldiers in Xiaohuzhai, and he also tried his best to imitate Li Zicheng and shared the joys and sorrows with everyone. It seemed that it had a certain effect.
"Guard team, everyone is ready, just waiting for your order." Zhang Pili walked up to Li Laiheng. This alert half-year-old child is very capable. He and Fang Yiren learned to read very diligently, and now they have learned simple words.
Read and write.
"Very good..." Li Laiheng nodded quietly. He looked at the Little Tiger Squadron of nearly 500 people and the entire coalition army of about 2,000 people. This was a "huge" army for him.
They are dividing into four teams and slowly pouring out of the old county town.
The weather was quite sunny, and the air was neither too humid nor too dry. Although the roads were dilapidated and dilapidated, due to Yu Dazhong's brutality and easy killing, there were no hungry refugees blocking the roads at this time.
Li Laiheng got on his horse and placed his right hand on the handle of the tiger-head waist knife presented by Li Shuangxi, feeling an incredible sense of confidence in his heart.
If he could transform from a civilian who could die at any time to a commander with two thousand soldiers and horses in one year, then in one year, two years... Li Laiheng would still have three years to build an army that could compete with the emperor.
Tai Chi, Dorgon’s power to compete!
==============================
1 Li Shiwei, his birth and death dates are unknown, and his early activities are also unknown.
According to the sixth volume of the "Qing Dynasty Archives and Historical Materials Series", "Hong Chengchou, Chen Lianghu and the discussion on the division of troops to suppress the imperial affairs", Li Shiwei should be a low-level general of the Chuang Army. After the remnants of the Dashun Army and Nanming jointly resisted the Qing Dynasty, Li Shiwei has been
He followed Li Laiheng in his southern and northern campaigns. Li Laiheng entered Xingshan, stationed at Maolu Mountain, built a commander's residence in Qilianping, and ordered Li Shiwei to take charge of his affairs. Obviously during this period, Li Shiwei had become an important general under Li Laiheng.
Nine years after Shunzhi, Li Shiwei, Li Laiheng, Dang Shousu, and Ma Chongxi participated in the battles of Yicheng, Nanzhang, Junzhou, and Gucheng, which caused a great blow to the Qing army. After Maolu Mountain was broken, some died in battle or accompanied Li Laiheng.
He set himself on fire and did not surrender to the Qing army.
Author's words: The reason why these characters who have left their names in history are used as the protagonist's subordinates is not because the author believes in the so-called "heroic view of history" and believes that only those who have left their names in history books are capable. Rather, the author hopes that most of the characters in this book will be
They are characters with roots and historical data to support them. Except for the supporting roles played by some book friends, other characters should be based on historical data as much as possible. Even a small and fleeting character should be a real person in history.
.
And because the Chuang Army failed in history, many figures related to the Chuang Army and the Dashun regime, although there are historical records, have not been paid attention to by everyone. The author also hopes that through this novel, everyone can pay a little attention to it.
These historical figures have been ignored by history.
