I’m The King

Chapter 957: : Glittering Wei (81)

At the head of Gaotang City, Zhu Wei worriedly stared at the camp of the Red Scarf Army in the distance. If Wuling and Yiyang were lost because of lack of preparation, he did not expect that this tribe would turn around after taking Rao An. As a result, Ben Gaotang suffered a boring loss. Outside Mayang City, the two sides fought a tough battle. Zhu Wei brought three thousand Qi army elites and two thousand Mayang defenders. The army of more than ten thousand soldiers met. Zhu Wei did not take the other party to heart. The bandits have always been crowded, but they are mobs. When the wind is fighting, they will rush up, and they will disperse if they encounter a slight setback. Although it is difficult to wipe them out with such characteristics, it is also difficult to become a big climate.He believes that this battle is just a copy of the previous bandits.

The external encounters were indeed as he had imagined. The roar of the Red Scarf thief was easily killed by him, but then he encountered the main force of the 3,000 Red Scarf Army. In the next fierce battle in Yangcheng, Zhu Wei couldn't stop the opponent's impact. He was abruptly beaten into two stages by the opponent's team. Then, Qi Jun's encounter was more tragic, and he lost the advantage of the corresponding two-stage army in the opponent. Under the siege of troops, the left and right sides were stunned. If Zhu Wei hadn't seen the opportunity early and didn't look good at it, even if he led his own elite troops to break through the siege desperately, even Mayang City did not return and fled straight to Gaotang. , I'm afraid that the three thousand elites under his hands will be exhausted now.

That's the case, now he has only half of the three thousand elites he brought out. As for Mayang's two thousand defenders, now they have either become prisoners or have died in the battle.

The ambition of the Red Scarf Thieves was not curbed because they captured the three counties.On the contrary, after they took in the refugees in a large scale, they forced them to Gaotang City and looked at their camp. Now they are afraid that they have already wrapped up tens of thousands of people. .

Zhu Wei's gaze did not stay on the messy and densely built shack, but projected on the neatly organized camp a little farther, on a slightly higher terrain, he knew that there was him. The main opponent, the main force of the Red Scarf Thief.

The main equipment of the Red Scarf Thieves shocked him.The unified standard weapon and the armor on his body were not inferior to his subordinates.The only difference was that the helmets of these thieves were wrapped in red scarves.

And what makes him a little uneasy is the opponent's combat power and fighting will.Such a situation should not appear in a group of bandits, but the reality is actually found in front of his eyes.

Now in Gaotang City, he is the only one who has escaped with less than two thousand soldiers and horses, plus there are about 10,000 new recruits in Gaotang City. Zhu Wei can't expect how powerful these new recruits can be. The cover of the city wall, I'm afraid they don't even have the courage to fight the enemy.

The only strategy now is to defend Gaotang City, and then wait for the reinforcements of the second son to come. If Gaotang has a problem, it will be a fatal blow to the second son, because it will force Wang Pei who is attacking Pinglu to have to Fearing that the back road will be copied and withdrawing, this gives the eldest son a respite.

And time is what the second son doesn't want to give to the first son. Zhu Wei can even imagine what kind of angry second son would face if he lost Gao Tang.

The second son, Tian Fucheng, was never a magnanimous person. Zhu Wei sighed and walked down the tower. Outside the city, those refugees who only carried a piece of red cloth on their heads were digging under the command of the real Red Scarf thief. Bagging with mud, needless to say, this is preparing for the attack on Gaotang City. Is the opponent planning to use soil bags to build a ramp to attack the city wall? Gaotang City is not a county like Mayang, if the other party really uses this If the method is used, then there is really no need to worry, even if these tens of thousands of refugees die, they will not be able to attack Gaotang City.

It seems that the stream bandits are indeed stream bandits.There are not many methods for this kind of fortified battle.The large-scale siege equipment needed to attack the fortified city can not be made by anyone.

He ordered his subordinates to strengthen their vigilance and report back at any time. Zhu Wei walked down the city wall. Now he is not worried about the opponent's attacking the city, but that the opponent will besiege and not fight, and the second son is too late to send reinforcements, then it is really necessary. That's bad, because Gao Tang has done everything in order to supply Wang Pei's army, searching everywhere, making the people in Gaotang have no livelihood, otherwise it is impossible for these Red Scarf thieves to gather so many refugees in a short period of time. Join them, although these refugees have low combat effectiveness, they can't stand the crowd.

Many ants can kill elephants.When the amount is large enough, it is enough to cause qualitative changes.

The food stored in Gaotang City is not enough to support his army and the people in the city for ten days of consumption, which is what makes him a little scared. When it comes, as long as the reinforcements arrive, the inside and the outside should be combined, it will be enough to turn defeat into victory, disperse these refugees, and then bite the main force of the Red Scarf Thief.

Just returned to the left-behind Yamen in Gaotang City, Wang Yan, who had just been promoted to Gaotang left-behind, found him with a sad expression on his face. Wang Yan was originally a master of Gaotang Trade Shoufu, and Tian Fucheng's army captured Gaotang. After that, Gao Tang stayed behind with most of the officials and fled. He was rather unlucky. He did not keep up with the team and fell into the hands of Tian Fucheng. In order to save his life, he could only surrender. He was not Chen Dai. He was eating and drinking and cursing every day. Still living a leisurely journey, if he hesitates for a while, the steel knife hanging on his head will fall directly. Fortunately, the powerful people in Gaotang City are almost running, and he, the master, fell into a moment. The highest official position of the original system official in Gaotang City, but also picked up a ready-made bargain, and became Gaotang's stay behind.

This freshly baked left-behind, because Tian Fucheng's victories are also really excited for a long time, feels that the pie is falling from the sky, and it is smashed on his head, making him jump into the big five. One of the two stayed behind. As long as the second son really won the world in the future, he would be enough to sit securely. For this reason, after the initial panic, I don’t know how many incense sticks were burned at night, and I pray for God. Bless the second son with smooth sailing and take Linzi as quickly as possible.

"General Zhu, there have been rumors in the city, and the major grain shops have no food for sale, and many people have started to run out of food. If this continues, I am afraid that the outside will not enter, and the inside will start to cause trouble." He said worriedly.

There was no grain in the grain shops, of course Zhu Wei knew, because after he entered the city, he immediately sent an army to control these grain shops and collected all the grain.

"The grain shop has no food, but there are still many big households in the city!" Zhu Wei said.

"Will those people take out the food stored at home!" Wang Yan said with a sad face, his roots are shallow, but the big tyrants in the city have deep roots, and he will be put in his eyes there.

Zhu Wei sneered, "Wang Liushou, the soldiers in your hand are not used to eat dry food, and the knife should also drink a little blood in a timely manner. You should be reasonable first. If they don't listen, then let you stay with the soldiers in the mansion. Go unreasonably, find someone to pick the head out, kill the chicken and show it to the monkey, this kind of trick, don't need me to teach you! The troubled times are heavy, if the Red Scarf thief comes into the city, everything will be a cloud, and you can't even keep your own head. , So now is not the time to be soft-hearted, you have to kill if you should kill."

"Understood!" Wang Yan nodded heavily, and there was a sense of pleasure in his heart. In this Gaotang City, there are many tyrants who are very unreasonable to him. This time, they have to choose carefully. One, let them see how good they are.

At noon, when the meal was being served, the refugees outside the city were crowded and crowded towards the large camps with smoke and aroma. The soldiers sent from the Chinese army unceremoniously taught them with whips and guns. , Let them learn to line up in pain and hunger, this is the first rule taught by the Red Turban Army to these refugees.

The reason why there are so many refugees participating in the Red Turban Army is very simple. You can eat here, even if it is two meals a day, and you will not starve to death. It is the season when there is no green and yellow, and there is not much food in stock. After being raided by the Qi army, there are not a few people who starve to death.In just two years, the once-rich country of Qi has become a land of starvation.

Hengdao rode a horse, and his guards patrolled in these refugee camps, also in order to prevent something wrong, there are tens of thousands of refugees here, it is really going to be back or the camp is screaming, it is not a trouble For fun.

Under the beating of the whip and the gun, the crooked formations barely lined up, and some young people who wanted to shout at first, seeing the cold eyebrows and the murderous guards, they all died for a while. This is a killing god. The refugees who came from Mayang have seen Hengdao lead his troops to kill the four directions, covered in blood, like a devil in hell, and the latecomers also know this red from the mouths of these people. The heads of the Scarf Army are all killing gods, and they kill people without blinking.

In the end, these people were originally good people, but hunger inspired a person to hide the most original evil deep in his heart.

A bowl of gruel per person, two meals a day, is just to keep these people from starvation. We can't let these people eat. The hungry refugees will have motivation, anger, and evil wishes, and they will be driven by us. This is the original words from the staff member of Jishicheng University Staff Co., who was just transferred here.

In fact, the Red Turban Army has no shortage of food.Every day from the sea, there will be a steady stream of food and grass transported from Liaodong.

Seeing that there were many old and weak women and children among these refugees, Hengdao couldn't help but sighed, shook his head, drove the horse, and walked in the direction of the Chinese army.
