Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 310 Division of Troops

"The hammer bandits are here, and there will be Qingtian!"

"The hammer bandits are here, and Wuzhai County will be at peace!"

A large number of hammer bandits appeared outside Wuzhai County, with a hammer embroidered on a blue-backed flag.

There were bursts of neat roars, and the county magistrate of Wuzhai County was too frightened to speak.

He had long heard that He Jinzhao's gang of hammer bandits were extremely vicious, and they kept asking for reinforcements.

However, Taiyuan Mansion was besieged by hammer bandits, and troops were dispatched to reinforce Taiyuan. There were few troops here.

In addition, He Jinchao killed Tian Zhao, the deputy general of Shanxi Town, and the soldiers of the Ming army abandoned many military forts and fled to Ningwu Pass.

Tian Mingcai, the general of Ningwuguan, would not care about the life and death of a county magistrate, as long as the city is destroyed, it will be destroyed.

Are there still a few counties that Hammer Bandit He Jinzhao has conquered?

As for the Datong Mansion, it is even more impossible to divide the troops. Mongolian Lin Danhan is still watching outside the Great Wall, waiting for the news of the market reward.

Once the money is not enough, this group of Mongols will definitely invade Datong again.

In Tian Ming's view, it was only a matter of time before Wuzhai County was breached by the hammer bandits.

Only by guarding Ningwu Pass, will there be a chance to come back.

The magistrate of Wuzhai County had no hope of asking for help, so he could only negotiate with the gentry and wealthy businessmen. With the support of the gentry and landlords, it was possible to have a scale of 3000 people guarding the city.

Didn't it mean that the hammer bandits would only act after the autumn harvest?
Why did they call not long after Xia Harvest?

How hot it is!

The magistrate is still sweating profusely even with the umbrella covered.

"My lord, what should I do?"

Hearing the subordinate's inquiry, the magistrate of Wuzhai County supported the city wall and forcibly calmed down:
"Don't let the Hammer bandits enter the city, otherwise no one will be left behind, and the new governor of Shanxi will definitely come to the rescue."

The gentry did not believe these words.

Even if the court transferred a new governor, but the governor has no soldiers in his hands, that's a fart.

The Hammer bandits were powerful, and the gentry knew He Jinzhao's tricks, asking them to donate their land and food.

This is killing them!

Not only that, I heard that He Jinzhao would choose to kill a few tyrants and landlords to appease the anger of the people, but who asked himself, how many bad things did he do to the elders in his hometown?

This is being leaked out, how can they still be good?

That's why the gentry and landowners are willing to pay money and food to help the county magistrate to guard the county seat, which is also to guard their own lives.

The city guards of Wuzhai County, who had put together impromptuly, looked at the army of hammer bandits outside the city, and they were all terrified.

Those hammer bandits couldn't see the end at a glance.

Not only that, the elite cavalry with one man and two horses ran around the city wall, which was extremely scary.

He Jinzhao could afford to support so many cavalry, how many horses would he have?

The name of the head coach of the 80 uprising army in Shaanxi is not just bragging.

What's more, the hammer bandits killed the deputy commander-in-chief of Shanxi and made a move to encircle Taiyuan City.

The best fighters in Shanxi all died in the hands of He Jinzhao.

Who else can beat him!

"If you can't hold on, seal the city gates."

The magistrate of Wuzhai County gritted his teeth and ordered that he was afraid that someone would open the city gate and surrender.

Especially the hammer bandits outside the city are majestic, while the soldiers defending the city on the other hand are full of fear.

"Yes." The county magistrate responded.

He Zan led the vanguard to the outside of the city, but did not immediately attack the city.

Instead, let Gao Yigong lead the cavalry around the city to promote slogans in order to attack his heart, let the defenders in the city mess up their positions, and boast of their own military power by the way.

He had figured it out. He Jinzhao's favorite tactic was to kill people and punish them.

Cutting them with a knife is certainly relieved, but I always feel that the joy is not in place, so I have to punish them.

It doesn't matter whether the county is taken or not, the important thing is to wait for Liu Erhu to conquer Wuzhai Fort first.

There are only so many people in the county, it is better to conquer the hearts of the people and miners outside the county first.

What's more, He Jinzhao's trip was not only for food, but also to recruit fierce miners and iron ore.

The two brothers Tian Hu and Tian Bao stood behind the shield array in high spirits, looking at the fortified Ningwu Pass.

"Brother, do you think it is possible for us to guard here in the future?"

Tian Bao's biggest dream before was to live better than the descendants of the main line.

"That's all you want, kid?"

Tian Hu smiled. In the past, he dreamed of being a general and guarding Ningwu Pass, laying a good foundation for his son, and maybe he could become the general of Shanxi Town.

But it's different now. Although he hasn't been with He Jinzhao for long, he can still feel that this person is a hero.

Maybe it will become the second Zhu Yuanzhang and establish a new dynasty.

At that time, I will be his most primitive subordinate, and it will be no problem to seal his wife Yinzi.

Tian Bao's eyes widened, and he couldn't help swallowing: "Brother, what do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" Tian Hu patted his younger brother's shoulder affectionately:

"You do a good job, we two brothers follow the captain to fight the world, and it will be no problem to be a marquis in the future. What is the position of a small general of the Ming Dynasty?"

"Hey." Tian Bao laughed twice.

"You took people to pull out the watchtower on the top of the mountain." Tian Hu pointed to Ningwu Pass built next to the mountain: "What kind of Fengtou, first cut off his water source, and make him thirsty for three days."

There are always three gates at Ningwu Pass, with the mountain on the north and a special watchtower on the mountain, which is three stories high, for sentry.

"Yes."

Tian Bao excitedly led 500 people to climb the mountain.

On the other hand, Tian Ming, father and son at Ningwu Pass, knew that Tian Hu brothers were coming to attack below, and their faces were extremely ugly.

"Father, I will lead the soldiers to kill these two white-eyed wolves."

"What's the rush?" Tian Ming stroked his beard, shook his head and said:

"This is He Jinzhao's strategy to lure the enemy, so he must stick to it."

"Is this how we endure?"

"Have you forgotten how your uncle died?"

Hearing his father's shout, he suddenly came to his senses.

The hammer bandit He Jinzhao successfully killed his uncle.

The main reason is that the two Tian Hu brothers, the inner ghosts, played tricks on their uncle and let down their vigilance.

Otherwise, He Jinzhao's wish to conquer the old camp fortress is simply fanciful.

Now He Jinzhao wants to use his family's dislike for the Tian Hu brothers to lure him into action.

To attack Ningwuguan by force, even if 1 people came, they would not even think about taking it down.

"Wait until after dark, then send sentry to investigate."

Tian Hu watched his younger brother leave, and ordered the artillery team to bring out the two general cannons and hide them.

Then he sent one of his confidantes to hold a shield and shout to surrender, but he was shot back by a cannonball.

"Fire the cannon and beat me hard."

Tian Hu looked at his subordinates with lingering fear. Fortunately, they didn't have enough gunners.

bang bang.

Two shots hit the past.

A stone bullet hit the city wall, shaking off a layer of soil, but nothing changed.

The other shot into Ningwu Pass and broke the roof.

Tian Ming, the general of the Ming Dynasty, was shocked, Hammer Bandit He Jinzhao already has such a powerful cannon?
"Scatter quickly, don't gather together." Tian Ming roared.

These two guns are just for calibration, and the next step is to aim slowly.

Without waiting for Tian Mingduo's instructions, these elite soldiers of the Ming army had already found a hiding place to defend against artillery.
