Qi Fei is now anxious like an ant on a hot pot, walking in circles like a fly without a head in the big tent, and he has long lost the steadiness of his self-proclaimed scribe.
After five days of siege, not only did they not advance an inch, but nearly 10,000 brothers were killed and wounded There is also this grain and grass, which has also run out, and the most worrying thing is that this flat land has carried out a complete fortified wall clearing, and then in such a toss in itself, not to mention food, even a mouse has run away with the family.
This is really more meritorious than saving the driver, and the poison is not enough.
There is also food, that is, the wharf on the other side of the Shahe River, where there is a steady stream of grain ships in and out of the Yellow River all day long, which makes people red-eyed, Qi Fei also sent a group of fierce generals to storm the military fortress on this side of the Shahe, hoping to occupy the wharf and obtain grain and grass, but the result was only a bloody defeat, and he could only watch countless grains go in and out every day on the opposite side of the wide Shahe River, but he was starving here, what kind of world is this.
And the result of dividing the troops to attack the city was that none of them could be captured, so it was delayed for two days in vain, so under Gao Yingxiang's suggestion to clench a fist and violently attack the old Pinglu, he still had to turn around and storm Pinglu.
Grain and grass have become the most urgent thing now.
"Someone, give the order, call me that bastard down the mountain tiger."
Qi Fei gritted his teeth at this time and ordered his own soldiers, and went out to order the leader of the grain team that had been arranged to see him.
This guy went out to collect food on the first day, but he returned almost empty-handed, saying that the walls and fields were so clear that there was almost no food to be found, and he only brought back less than ten stones of grain.
Ten stones of grain is good for more than 30,000 troops, and it is not enough to plug the teeth.
In a place like Pinglu, there will definitely be food, but now it is not in the countryside, but in the fortresses in various places, but this guy thinks that attacking the fortress will consume his strength, and he is unwilling to use the strong.
When has this been, all the allies have suffered heavy casualties, and he still has such crooked thoughts, if he doesn't have to break a fortress with all his strength this time to bring back food, he can't just use his head to do an example.
Xiashan Hu, who was hiding in his own camp, also saw from the gruel in his bowl that the situation was very bad, and he was thinking about whether he should really make some effort for this alliance in the next step, but at this time, Qi Fei's herald strode in, and his face was pale and he gave a loud order, "The leader of the Great Alliance has an order, and he ordered Xiashan Tiger to go with his own army quickly."
Looking at the pro-army with a bad face, the head of the Xiashan Tiger at that time became the boss, this time it will definitely not be a good thing, if it is a good thing, this pro-army will definitely not have such the same expression.
Also, he took 3,000 men and horses from his own headquarters, eating and drinking the allies outside, but seeing other allies suffering heavy casualties but playing there, which alliance leader he put on will be angry, and everyone knows what the consequences of anger are.
So he turned over, took out a small silver ingot in his arms and stuffed it into the hands of this Qi Fei pro-army, and said with a careful smile: Brother, when you were old, what was the leader of the Great Alliance doing Seeing the silver coin in his hand, he weighed it, it was more than five taels, and it was full of color, and it was also carved with patterns.
"At first glance, this is the New Year's money specially created for the child by the elders of the family when the child is full moon.
So he wiped the blackened blood stains on it indifferently, and put it directly in his arms, and then whispered: "The leader of the Great Alliance is eating, drinking gruel, and he is also looking through today's money and grain account books, you have to be careful." ” Xiashan Tiger sighed in his heart, he was really afraid of something, the alliance leader drank porridge, and he must be in a very bad mood, and in a bad mood, he could do anything, and he must not touch this mold.
At that time, he gritted his teeth and arched his hand at this Qi Fei's pro-army: "Trouble the pro-army brothers to go back and report to the leader of the Great Alliance, just say that I go down the mountain to know the difficulties of the Great Alliance Leader, I will take my brothers now, and I will fight to the death to build a fortress to make up enough food and grass for the army, if I can't raise it, I don't want the Great Alliance Lord to implement military law, I will take my head back." ” As he spoke, he rushed out of the tent with a big knife.
At that time, the pro-army was stunned, and hurriedly waved his hand and chased out: "Alas, don't go, don't go, how can I explain to the leader of the alliance when you leave." ” As a result, he was still a step late, and at this time, the Xiashan Tiger had already reorganized his men and horses and roared away, and the speed was so fast that this pro-army thought that he was dazzled.
This time there is no way to retreat for the tigers, and they must take down a fortress to raise a certain amount of food for the army, otherwise how to preserve their strength in the first place, in the end, it will be in vain, thinking about resisting you, forget it, not to mention that everyone has been far away from their homeland, to this unfamiliar place, if they want to go home in the encirclement and suppression of the official army, they must huddle together to keep warm, second, now they are 3,000 people, but there are more than 10,000 people in the hands of the leader of the Qi Fei Alliance, and Gao Yingxiang's 5,000 cavalry are eyeing each other, those are not compared to their own poles, That's what is left after nearly half a month of fighting, that's the real dare to fight, the pole that can fight, is definitely not comparable to these brothers who haven't really seen blood for most of them, especially, if they resist, it is a public anger, not only Qi Fei will cut himself, but even other poles will fall into the well and cut themselves together to calm down the virtue of his own opportunism for five days.
Now the downhill tiger has a feeling of being coerced, and this feeling is becoming clearer and clearer.
"Forget it, we've all come to this point, and we can only continue to move forward, or we will die faster if we don't turn back."
It's too late to regret it, pinch your nose.
Since this is the case, you have to risk your life to fight, of course, the goal is, the selected Lijiabao for these few days.
Lijiabao is more than 30 miles away from Pinglu, the fortress is not very big, when he was "passing by", he saw that the villagers above were nervous, and at first glance it was a group of new Ding, and the number was not much, at most seven or eight hundred people, which already included those people who were mixed in the township Yong.
With 500 villagers who have never seen blood, plus the 300 people who were placed in it to select 300 people actually have no combat effectiveness, especially if the people join, in fact, not only can not play a role in strengthening, but will weaken the combat effectiveness, once the fight starts, the people will be able to collapse the entire defense line immediately.
"That's him."
Xiashan Hu made up his mind and yelled at his subordinates behind him: "Cheer up, speed up your pace, and take down the Li family camp to eat wine and meat." ” With the shout of the tiger going down the mountain, the two dizzy poles that had long been made by gruel and pickles immediately lifted their spirits, and they responded to the sky for a while, "Beat the Li family camp to eat wine and meat, rush." ” In fact, the requirements of these poles that the original people have turned into are so simple, in this troubled world, those who stutter can survive, of course, what they say about living is just when the sun sets, as for tomorrow or not, that is God and the big boss have the final say, and they don't count.
Being able to eat a meal of wine and meat before dying in battle is considered a blessing from the previous life.
Three thousand poles, the black pressure pressed on the fortress of Lijiaying.
When the patrol on the wall saw so many poles swarming in, they were frightened and overwhelmed, and it took a long time to remember to ring the gong to call the police, with a piercing gong, the fortress immediately became chaotic, five hundred townsmen were okay, after all, after training, but the three hundred people who assisted in guarding the wall were completely blinded, in their opinion, with the protection of the fortress, the pole should not come, even if it came, it was the same as the original two days, everyone looked at the wall under the wall, and it passed as if nothing happened, at this time, Some of the people who were placed outside the Li family camp began to regret that the pole was so benevolent and righteous, so they shouldn't have abandoned their family and business to come here to be looked down upon by others.
But at this time, I suddenly knew that the pole was coming, how not to lose my soul and pick up the knife and gun and rush to the wall with the village, not only did not have the effect of cheering, but played a role in disrupting the situation, and was so angry that the head of the sect invited by the largest landlord gentry Li Zhuang in this fortress was scolded, and finally a burst of sticks solved the problem.
When he came, he talked to him and asked him to hand over a thousand stones of grain according to the rules, but the old guy refused.
In fact, he had to refuse, because first, the asking price of this pole was too high, and the most important thing was that the county order Lu Huanzhi was strictly ordered, according to the order of the superintendent, anyone who dared to provide a grain of grain for the pole would be confiscated from the whole family afterwards according to the great crime of colluding with the pole.
Who is Lu Hanqiang, it is a well-known word, the pole can go, but Lu Hanqiang is not leaving.
He said that he would strictly investigate afterwards, and he would definitely do it, and everyone would not dare to gamble on this.
Besides, everyone still has some confidence in their hearts, even Zhuang Mutual Insurance, which is also strictly ordered by the Governor, and everyone will abide by it, so everyone didn't say a word, one was ready to attack the city, and the other lit a beacon fire, and the two sides were endlessly putting on a posture.
Zhuang Ding Xiangyong on the wall widened his eyes, looking at the tide of people who were silently approaching, with a death-like breath oppressing people who couldn't breathe, the swords, guns, bows and arrows in their hands couldn't help but tremble, a nameless fear climbed from his heart, biting his heart and lungs, squeezing everything around him, the whole battlefield did not have a little people shouting horses, only the terrifying monotonous Sasha's footsteps with death slowly pressed over little by little, Near, near, Suddenly, I don't know which Zhuang Ding on the wall couldn't stand the pressure of death that bit his heart and lungs, he shouted, and shot the arrow in his hand at the crowd aimlessly.
Immediately, the heavens and the earth shook, and all the people on the wall shouted and screamed, pushed, and threw out the things in their hands as much as they could, as if they wanted to throw out the fear in their hearts.
So the feather arrows, the oil bottle, the rolling wood and stones, anyway, what is at hand all beckoned out, there is that nervous, even the knives and guns in their hands are thrown down, for a time all kinds of objects fell like rain, and there was a sparse scream and wail under the wall, but more is cursing, Zhuang Ding on the wall is even more nervous and does not even have the courage to look out, in fact, the real siege flow is still some distance away from the wall, but the feather arrows that continue to shoot have caused certain casualties, and those fire oil rolling wood and so on are in vain, After a while, the sound of gongs came from behind the siege poles, and the displaced people under the wall turned around and ran back, leaving behind dozens of corpses, as well as the wounded who were not dead struggling in a pool of blood, helplessly stretched out their arms, hoping that their companions would stop and take them back with them, but no one paid attention, only the wounded man watched his dirty feet run past him, and slowly shed the last drop of blood in the wailing, This is the rule, the war wounded will become waste, there is no need to bring it back, how cruel the battlefield is, but how helpless.
The pole's attack began like a black cloud at the top, and in the blink of an eye it was stormy, but immediately the rain and clouds dispersed.
At this time, there was a leader on the wall who saw that the thieves had dispersed, and hurriedly shouted loudly to stop Zhuang Ding on the wall from wasting not much defensive equipment, Zhuang Ding only then woke up in the killing madness just now, and sat on the ground like a prostration, panting violently with his mouth open, as if he was going to gasp out his lungs, not due to fatigue, but because of too much pressure, Standing behind the formation, the Xiashan Tiger saw that the people on the wall had been fooled and wasted so many feather arrows, and he was happy to feel that the clever plan was sold well, and said to the surrounding cronies: "Look at a bunch of stupid donkeys, we will let them waste at least half of the feather arrows and arrows in a strategy, wait for us to form the formation, and then come on so twice, see that they only use their teeth to fight with our strong soldiers, hahahaha." ” The second attack was launched again, and in order to boost morale, Xiashan Tiger also gave the order, "I will not seal the knife when I enter the Li family camp." ” As soon as the poles heard it, it was thunderous with joy, the so-called non-sealing knife is to let everyone beat the Li family camp, regardless of the rich and poor, the rich and the poor are open to robbery, and the women's wealth and wealth are capable, as long as they are handed over to the big boss half of them afterwards, The people on the wall heard the cheers of the poles, and knew that things could not be done well today, an old man stood on a high place and shouted hoarsely: "Fellow villagers, the pole is going to kill our village completely, and now for the sake of the old and young people in our village, we are desperately killing the enemy, if this battle is won, the reward and pension of the superintendent is not counted, my Li family is willing to pay five taels of silver per person, one stone of white rice per family, the scenery of the dead is buried, and the injured are rented to good fields for farming, and the land rent is halved, everyone is satisfied, and they are willing to kill the enemy with me." ” "Okay, thank you, Master Li."
The city erupted in cheers, This Li family has also made a bloody investment, as long as it withstands this round, then the Li family will be saved, a little silver is just a dime, it's nothing, For a while, the two sides were in high spirits, and a real battle began t1706231537:
