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

Chapter 175 Dying one after another

"Zhang Shenzheng, are you feeling better now?" Chen Qiyu looked at Zhang Bojing who was lying on the bed. If it weren't for the time to employ people, he would never want to see this Shenzheng again.

In Chen Qiyu's view, Zhang Bojing was somewhat cowardly.

How could a general who was used to seeing life and death be afraid of two people dying in front of him, and even become seriously ill because of it.

Although Zhang Bojing's face was a little pale, it was much better than before.

"Much better. Thank you, Lord Governor, for your concern."

Looking at Chen Qiyu in front of him, Zhang Bojing also knew clearly about what happened recently. Not only did Emperor Chongzhen not punish Chen Qiyu, he even raised Chen Qiyu's official position to the level of governor of five provinces.

However, Zhang Bojing no longer cares about this. He knows that the Kitchen King is coming to attack the city. Qingyang Mansion may not be able to support it for long. Under the terrifying long-range enemy-killing weapon of the Kitchen King, there is no city. If it can be defended, he will destroy all those who defend the city.

You can't always hide behind the walls like a shrunken turtle. The generals in command can do this, but the soldiers defending the city cannot.

"You should have heard that Kitchen King is currently attacking Heshui County."

Chen Qiyu raised this matter. He wanted Zhang Bojing to come out and guard Qingyang. After all, Zhang Bojing had experience in dealing with the Kitchen King. Just as Emperor Chongzhen did not punish him when he failed, Zhang Bojing's failure was inevitable. , after all, the enemy is the Kitchen King, but he has accumulated some strategies to deal with the Kitchen King.

Zhang Bojing sighed after hearing this. He once said something in front of Chen Qiyu, but he was unable to resist. Even Daming was unable to resist. Now he did not go around the corner and said directly to Chen Qiyu:

"Sir Governor, you also know that the Kitchen King's methods are such that if a general shows his head on the city wall, he will be killed by the Kitchen King. The general will be frightened, and how can the soldiers have the fighting spirit?"

"What's more, once the Kitchen King loses sight of the generals, he may start killing our soldiers. Although he can only kill one at a time, how many soldiers can there be guarding the city."

"This is like black and white, claiming lives one by one. Maybe the soldiers on the wall will collapse before the Kitchen King kills all the soldiers."

Chen Qiyu smiled when he heard this. He didn't care about Zhang Bojing's words that boosted others' ambitions and destroyed his own prestige. After all, Zhang Bojing said such treacherous words in front of him.

"Haha, Zhang Shenzheng, I already have a strategy to deal with the Stove King's weapon."

"what?"

Zhang Bojing raised his head in astonishment. Immediately, he thought that Chen Qiyu's response might be to let the generals hide behind the city wall and command, so as to induce the soldiers to stand on the top of the city regardless of life or death.

When he said these words, who knew, Chen Qiyu would just shake his head.

"No, I have gathered a group of death row prisoners."

After saying that, he looked at Zhang Bojing.

The latter's face was stunned for a while, and then he suddenly realized, "My lord, I want to risk people's lives."

"The fate of the prisoners on death row has nothing to do with any of the soldiers on the city wall. The prisoners on death row deserve to die. Seeing these damned people die in front of them, the soldiers may be indifferent and still fulfill their duty to defend the city."

Chen Qiyu was very satisfied with his strategy.

Zhang Bojing suddenly realized that no one would know the outcome unless he tried something like a plan. Chen Qiyu's plan sounded feasible. It could hold back the Kitchen King's magic soldiers and at the same time keep the soldiers capable of fighting.

"Bo Jing, I still need your help in suppressing bandits."

Seeing that Zhang Bojing was in better condition, Chen Qiyu hurriedly struck while the railway was hot.

The words had reached this point, and Zhang Bojing had no choice but to agree.

Liu Zhenhua stared at the picture in the sniper scope attentively.

There were many armored soldiers on the city wall. Liu Zhenhua was not surprised to see armored soldiers in such a small county town. After all, the opponent already knew that he was coming to attack.

His eyes patrolled the city wall, but he didn't see anything suspicious, including artillery or soldiers with firearms from the Shenji Battalion. It seemed that Emperor Chongzhen's support here was no longer as good as the last time.

This surprised Liu Zhenhua. Logically speaking, Emperor Chongzhen should have been more aggressive in suppressing bandits here. This time, he did not send the elite of the Shenji Battalion from the capital.

Liu Zhenhua's eyes focused on a person who was obviously the commander.

The moment he saw this man, Liu Zhenhua was stunned for a moment. He raised his head in surprise and looked away from the sniper scope.

Then he set his sights on the sniper scope again. He saw Wang Yousheng and thought of the lyrics, 'You are beautiful when the corners of your mouth turn down.' '

In the sniper scope, on the city wall, the man who looked like a general was commanding the soldiers around him with a downward smile. He seemed to be mobilizing the city defense. However, this man's face was too arrogant. Wang Yousheng's face was just about capturing the enemy. It's just a lot of trophies and the simple pride and excitement of wearing a new military uniform. This man is arrogant and proud.

Liu Zhenhua looked at him and wanted to kill him with one shot.

And that's exactly what he did, putting a little pressure on his finger on the trigger.

On the city wall, the bastard had never felt so good as he did now. He was wearing a general's uniform, standing on the tall city wall, commanding the surrounding soldiers, although the surrounding soldiers ignored him.

But enough is enough.

"This money and this life are so easy to get."

The bastard thought, I don't know what the officials thought, so easily wiped out their death sentences, and also promised them generous rewards.

Just when he was thinking about a better life in the future, the tortoise suddenly lost consciousness.

"boom."

There was only a loud sound, and the hearts of the soldiers on the city wall trembled. The soldiers standing next to the tortoise did not turn around to look, but the warmth on their faces followed by the biting cold made them realize that the fox next to them was pretending to be a tiger. The general is dead.

Under the city wall, one hundred and ninety-nine death row prisoners had relaxed and cheerful smiles on their faces. Although the enemy came to attack the city, they were not worried at all because the official was still there.

Moreover, the other party may not be able to fight back.

Maybe it won't be their turn to play general for even a day.

"boom."

Suddenly, there was a huge noise in the distance.

Everyone raised their heads and looked towards the city wall in astonishment, only to see a soldier waving his hand downwards.

Then, the military master standing in front of them turned his head and said to them, "Second, you can change your clothes and go up to the city wall."

As he was talking, a piece of blood-stained clothing was dropped from the city wall, and soldiers immediately took it to deal with it.

The prisoners on death row looked at each other, they didn't know what happened and how long had passed.

Why is that bastard already dead? Looking at the city wall, the other party doesn't seem to be attacking.

How did the bastard die?

The death row prisoner standing first in the first row no longer looked as calm as before, and his face was filled with fear of the unknown.

He did not expect that the condemned prisoners who went up would die so quickly. He originally thought that it might not be their turn for a day. After all, the siege of the city only lasted a few days.

The other party didn't attack the city wall, so how did the bastard die? However, there was no time for him to think too much now.

The military master had already begun to urge him to climb up the city wall.

He looked back and saw a group of death row prisoners staring at him, with inexplicable fear on their faces.

He swallowed, then climbed up the wall with fear of the unknown.

Listening to the cheers of the soldiers behind him, Liu Zhenhua turned his gaze away from the sniper scope. He was a little confused. Didn't he snipe the generals defending the city last time? The other party should know his methods. Why are these generals still on the city wall? Exposed, and so arrogant.

However, he didn't think too much about it, just thinking that the other party was stupid and not worthy of that person's arrogance.

Liu Zhenhua put his eyes on the sniper scope again and looked at the city wall. The soldiers guarding the city wall did not panic and still looked prepared.

"It seems that the soldiers this time are much more elite."

After killing one person last time, the defenders on the city wall immediately panicked.

However, Liu Zhenhua soon noticed that a general appeared on the city wall again. Liu Zhenhua was not surprised. A city could not have only one general guarding the city.

This time, the defender's behavior was too normal. He came up with an expression of fear and confusion.

One hand was gesturing to the left and right.

Qiu Jiu was panicking in his heart. He climbed up the city wall and came to where the tortoise was just now. There were still pools of blood and unknown parts of minced meat on the ground.

He didn't know how the bastard died or where the danger came from, but he was still dedicated and did not forget his responsibilities.

Command left and right.

Qiu Jiu had a panic look on his face, and he was making patterns with his fingers that he didn't even know. He looked outside the city wall. The enemy army was spread out in the distance, and there seemed to be no archers or anything like that.

He looked around the city wall, but there were no arrows falling on it.

Qiu Jiu shook his head. It couldn't be a bow and arrow. How could the bow and arrow drop blood and pieces of meat all over the ground?

He didn't know what caused the bastard's death, but the only thing Qiu Jiu knew was that the threat came from the opposite side. He cautiously looked towards the opposite side. The distance of more than a hundred meters was not too far.

Although ancient people had more night blindness due to malnutrition, their eyesight was still relatively good.

Qiu Jiu saw a person who seemed to be staring at him with a strange weapon. Although the other person was facing the entire city wall, Qiu Jiu felt that the person was staring at him.

People have a sense of danger. If you try to point a sharp object at the center of your eyebrows, your pineal gland, which has not yet completely degenerated, will feel an uncomfortable, stinging or even nauseating feeling.

Qiu Jiu felt like this right now. His scalp was almost about to explode, and a chill ran down his back. This was his last thought, because his head was exploding.

Another death row prisoner died in front of the soldiers. The surrounding soldiers couldn't help but glance at this place. Although it was not the first time they saw it, to be precise, it was the third time. In order to maintain the visibility of the front city wall, Chen Qiyu The stability allowed the plan to proceed smoothly. The people on the front wall were almost all the soldiers who guarded the sweet spring last time.

When these soldiers saw this scene, they still showed fear on their faces, but they were just afraid. The scene that happened now was exactly what the commander had expected. The other party was constantly sniping and killing the commander.

It's also possible to kill them.

However, if they escape, they will definitely be killed by the supervising team. If they stay here, they will not necessarily die. For now, they just need to stay here and wait for the general below to issue orders.

Another blood-stained robe was thrown down.

The prisoners on death row were no longer as calm as before, and the look of fear on their faces was even worse. However, the supervisory team holding bright swords around them had already turned their attention to them.

The death row inmates knew that they had no choice but to go up one by one.

At the current rate of death.

Maybe they can survive today.

Can it even last until the city is broken?

Only now did they understand why the officials gave them such generous terms. It turned out that it was not that the officials were stupid, but that they were too naive.

Anyone who can be an official is extremely smart.

"next."

Although the general didn't have much armor, he had plenty of robes. After the death row prisoners dressed up for a while, a young city guard general appeared in front of everyone.

"Brother, I hope you can hold on a little longer."

One of the death row inmates shouted. At this moment, they even hoped that this person could survive more than his parents. After all, the longer this person lasted, the greater the chance they would survive.

The man in the general's uniform showed a smile that was uglier than crying. This was damn near execution.

It is even worse than being executed. To execute someone, you know that your head will be chopped off with a machete, and you know when your head will be chopped off.

Here, every one of them died, and they didn’t even know how they died.

"You haven't retreated yet?"

Liu Zhenhua stared at the city wall. How many guards could there be at most in a city?

These soldiers did not flee.

"Fire a few rounds, then fire a few rounds and then attack the city." No one will die in a battle. Liu Zhenhua's sniping in front is just to win the city with the minimum loss.

But if you can't do that, you can only use primitive methods to attack the city.

The Maxim machine gun is very useful for defending plains or strongholds, but it is not so useful for attacking cities.

All that can be done is to shoot at the city wall.

Liu Zhenhua's sniper rifle searched for targets on the city wall. The soldiers were almost all the same, and they seemed to be able to hit anyone.

Suddenly, Liu Zhenhua noticed another figure peeping out his head. The man was wearing a general's hat tilted on his head and a junior general's robe. Although it was different from the previous one, he could clearly see the difference from the surrounding soldiers. .

Liu Zhenhua felt like three question marks appeared above his head.

Another guard climbed up to the top of the city.

But this one was obviously much smarter. He just passed by in a flash and hid behind the battlements.

"Three guards, but it doesn't seem to be too many. One city has four walls," Liu Zhenhua muttered. This man was hiding behind the city wall. Liu Zhenhua really had nothing to do with him.

He adjusted the muzzle of his gun and pointed it at the soldier beside him.
