The white porridge and pickled mustard is enough, why am I wearing a royal robe?

Chapter 107 Exercise
The Flying Tiger is dead.

Wang Zuogao, Big Red Wolf and a group of cronies were captured alive.

The remaining three thousand refugees were accepted, and Liu Zhenhua's team expanded again.

Liu Zhenhua only felt that it was a pity that these people knew very well that those with current affairs were heroes, and the battle was over without even his crossbowmen showing their grace.

Now there is an urgent need for a battle to let Liu Zhenhua test the strength of his current team.

early morning.

The people in the city gathered together and looked at the people kneeling on the ground in front of them with their heads covered.

"Grandma, there are still people who want to capture the Stove Lord. They are crazy."

"I gave them the courage to attack the Stove Lord."

"Kill them!"

The people were all very angry. They lived so well under the command of the Kitchen King, and the Kitchen King treated them just like their reborn parents.

No, what my biological parents gave me was not as much as what the Kitchen God gave me.

Just now, there is a thief who wants to attack the Stove Lord.

The people wanted to eat his bones and drink his blood.

The person who executed the sentence was replaced by the former pig butcher, and the person who read the sentence was replaced by a down-and-out scholar in the city.

"The thief king Zuo Gua, the big red wolf, wants to seduce Yanchuan County and murder the Kitchen King. He should be punished for his crime!"

"Immediate execution!"

After the reading was finished, the people applauded one after another.

The executioner wielded a butcher knife and killed them all.

"Good! Good!"

The people cheered for a while. These people actually wanted to murder the Stove King. Killing them was a minor matter. They should be hung here in the sun for ten days and let them die after being tortured.

Liu Zhenhua stood outside the city. Two thousand three hundred militiamen and six hundred heavenly soldiers were also present. The number of Liu Zhenhua's troops was about to reach 3000.

Among the six hundred heavenly soldiers, there are fifty Mo Dao Hands and fifty crossbowmen. The other five hundred heavenly soldiers are all armed with red tassel spears. The number of Mo Dao Hands has decreased because many of the crossbowmen are from Mo Dao Hands. The person selected has amazing arm strength.

After shooting a few rounds of crossbows, these people will be replaced, armed with weapons, and become close combat soldiers.

There were stronger men among the militiamen carrying six-meter-long ladders in pairs.

This is used when climbing into the city.

Others carried wooden shields wrapped in leather.

This is to protect the crossbowmen. Fifty crossbowmen fired multiple times. With the range advantage and the protection of the wooden shield, the opponent's attack will basically not cause any damage to the crossbowmen.

Wang Zuoguan and others tried to seize Yichuan, but were repulsed many times by Chengcai, the county magistrate who was well prepared.

During this period, Liu Zhenhua sent Zhang Heizi out to investigate, and the number of defensive manpower in Yanchang County increased a lot.

Especially yesterday.

Liu Zhenhua suspected that it might be related to the fact that Wang Zuoguan and others went north. It was probably known by Yanchang County. Now the people in these counties were like frightened birds. The slightest movement would make them prepare for war crazily.

Therefore, taking the city by force is the worst strategy, and attacking the heart is the best strategy.

On the city wall, scarecrows stand on the edge of the city wall or in the middle of the city wall. There are also many scarecrows standing in the city.

Exercise today, capture the city directly tomorrow.

"start!"

Following Liu Zhenhua's order, the team began to move. The phalanx formed by the heavenly soldiers surrounded the crossbowmen in the center, and the phalanx formed by the militiamen surrounded the goals formed by the heavenly soldiers.

One by one, uniform phalanxes approached the city wall.

Hey, hey, hey.

The soldiers' footsteps were uniform. Although they did not deliberately increase their footsteps, the sound of footsteps was still heard as nearly 3000 people advanced in an orderly manner.

The people watching around were all shocked by the power of this team.

Worthy of being the Stove King’s team.

This kind of formation can also produce huge psychological pressure on the rural warriors defending the city.

"Standing!"

Tread.

With two neat footsteps, the team stopped without making any sound, just staring ahead.

"Wooden Shield Bearer!"

Yang Lichao said to the left and right that he was responsible for directing this battle.

The two men immediately shouted in unison to spread the news.

Hundreds of militiamen holding wooden shields walked out from the phalanx on both sides. Those who were able to hold up shields were trained, and their speed and strength were excellent. They could not be swordsmen or bowmen. Crossbowmen, now that there are more shieldmen, they have been chosen. That's what it's called. Opportunities often come to those who are prepared.

This is also included in military merit. If they cooperate well, they will have a chance to be promoted to heavenly soldiers.

They stood in two staggered rows.

"crossbowman!"

Another heavenly soldier spread the news.

The fifty crossbowmen quickly walked out of the team of heavenly soldiers. They stood in two rows behind the wooden shield bearers, raising the divine arm bows in their hands.

It is difficult to hit when shooting low and high. The training of crossbowmen is to make the crossbow arrows shoot at an elevation angle as much as possible, so that they fall and are inserted in the designated position.

This distance is just right. If the opponent wants to resist at this distance, he can only throw stones, kerosene, gold juice, etc. are useless.

At this time, the role of the wooden shield is revealed, which is enough to withstand the stones thrown by the enemy.

"Fire arrows!"

The order came out.

The divine arm crossbowmen immediately pulled the triggers and fired towards the city wall.

There were two rows of fifty arrows, which did not have an overwhelming effect after being shot out, but it was enough.

"Swish, swish, swish." The arrow fell.

On the city wall, the scarecrows within the attack range had some arrows stuck in them.

Zhao Shitong recorded on the city wall.

"There were fifty arrows in total. Fifteen of them were stuck on the scarecrows, ten of them landed in the gaps between the scarecrows, and twenty-five of them missed the target and hit the back of the city."

He recorded the data and then walked out of the city with the data.

The soldiers below were still firing arrows. This was Liu Zhenhua's first tactic, torture flow.

Keep shooting arrows, you can't hit me, but I can shoot you.

Attack the enemy's psychological defenses, and then show himself in front of others, causing their psychological defenses to collapse.

The second type.
"Cloud ladder!"

Just now, the wooden shield-bearer and the crossbow-man had advanced a little further. At this distance, things like the opponent's oil splash and golden juice were still out of reach.

On Liu Zhenhua's side, this distance was enough to shoot a bow and arrow directly at the person who popped up on the city wall.

Five teams of militiamen came out, all with fierce faces. Each team had 50 people, and the first three were carrying wooden ladders.

The Kitchen King said that whoever ascends first will be promoted to the fourth level.

He went directly from militiaman to company commander, rising to the top in one step.

Those who followed him to the city were promoted two levels and became squad leaders.

"Charge! Climb the city!"

At the command, the militiamen carried ladders and rushed forward.

The crossbowman aimed at the people on the city wall when the militia team was about to reach the root of the city wall.

25 crossbowmen shot arrows instantly, and the scarecrows standing between the battlements instantly had arrows inserted into their heads.

At this distance, it is still a direct shot, and the crossbowmen can almost always hit the target.

"Go to the city! Climb first and get the big reward!"

The three people at the head of each team stood the ladder upright and the two people held it.

The others followed, climbing up the ladder with three quick steps and two quick steps, climbing the ladder as fast as a gecko.

Although it was an exercise, every militiaman climbing the ladder or waiting to climb had a look of fanaticism on their face.

There is no way, the reward for logging in first is too generous.

Just become the company commander. You must know that the company commander not only enjoys the same treatment as the heavenly soldiers, but also gets free meat every now and then.

Not only that, but there is also the extra Holu Na.

Interest is always the best driving force for people to move forward.

Five rows of five people climbed onto the city wall almost at the same time. At the same time, the second batch of arrows arrived and were inserted into the scarecrow again.

This is the second method, to capture it forcefully under the cover of the crossbowmen.

Except for Liu Zhenhua, almost all militiamen hope to use this method. They all have the opportunity to be selected to attack the city and have the opportunity to be promoted to officials.

Liu Zhenhua looked at this scene. This was just a quick climb up the city wall if everything went well. In actual combat, there would definitely be a lot of casualties.

"There is no one who survives a war."

Liu Zhenhua muttered and stared at the huge team in front.

This exercise was very successful, and we will go into actual combat tomorrow.

"I just hope that the strategy of attacking the heart will succeed."

Liu Zhenhua said in his heart that if he failed to conquer his heart, he could only take it by force.

Wu Yong and others were mixed with the militia team and participated in this exercise enthusiastically.

They were deeply aware of the huge gap between the so-called rebel army they had been with and the Kitchen King's team. How could they be called armies? They were simply bandits and rabble. The Kitchen King's troops were the elite, and they had become the elite. a part of.

This is destined to be a sleepless night. Minbi and the heavenly soldiers are very excited. They will attack the city tomorrow. Although the Kitchen King has two strategies, they may not necessarily go into battle.

But it was the first time for a big girl to get on a sedan chair to capture the city openly and openly in broad daylight.

After resting for a whole afternoon, Liu Zhenhua rewarded the soldiers and gave the militiamen some white porridge, pickled mustard, and half an egg per person. This move pushed the already high morale to a higher level.

The militiamen looked at the tea eggs in their hands with excitement.

Although there was only half of it, the smell from the tea eggs was enough to make them intoxicated.

Not only did it have the aroma of eggs, but also a faint aroma of tea. Poor people like them had never had tea before. They had smelled a similar smell when they passed by teahouses in the city, but it was not as strong as this!
Look at the rich white porridge. This time it's not diluted porridge, but a whole bowl!
Carefully chew off a little egg yolk with your two front teeth, put it in your mouth, then pick up a piece of mustard. It must be turned out from the bottom with juice, put it in your mouth, chew it twice, and then drink a big mouthful of porridge. .

This taste almost made them climax on the spot, and they all closed their eyes and savored the taste in their mouths.

Not just because of a tea egg, a bowl of porridge, or a pile of vegetables, but because after becoming a heavenly soldier, you can eat these three meals a day.

So happy.

"kill!"

Some militiamen wished they could attack the city now and climb the city wall now.

After eating, the militiamen were all gearing up, and so were the heavenly soldiers. Don't think that the heavenly soldiers who had eaten white porridge, pickled mustard and eggs were no longer enthusiastic about war. They also had pursuits, higher titles and salaries.

At least the squad leader's treatment is much better than theirs, and the higher you go, the better.

Liu Zhenhua's gold and silver fields, as well as the few livestock meat in the city, were given to these officials.

Occasionally, reputation can be exchanged for some meals and drinks that do not belong to this era. Among other things, liquor and the like should be very useful.

"Attack!"

Seeing the high morale, Liu Zhenhua sat upright on his horse, drew his sword and shouted.

Almost all of his soldiers were sent out, leaving only one hundred heavenly soldiers and one hundred militiamen to guard the city.

These guards are only formal. After all, Liu Zhenhua has won the hearts of the people. Even if there is no guard, if someone wants to usurp the city, the people in the city will not agree. After all, what the Stove King can give them, no one else can give it to them. .

The emperor has to stand back a little when he comes. This place already belongs to the Kitchen King.
