please make me king

Chapter 539
Early the next morning, Wang Yidao, a butcher outside Luoyang City, was still asleep.

In the past few days, due to the siege of the city by officers and soldiers, the business of the butcher shop has not been good.Last night, he planned to go to the outskirts of the city to watch the battle after breakfast today.

There has been peace in the mainland of Ming Dynasty for a long time, and many people have never seen what war is like. Everyone is very rare and never tires of watching it.

Suddenly, there was a violent banging sound from outside the door. Wang Yidao was startled and woke up from his sleep.

Before he could react, the gate of the courtyard was smashed open amidst the screams of his wife.

Wang Yidao didn't care about putting on his clothes, so he hurried out of the room to take a look, only to see three or five big men in armor and holding blades pouring in from the yard.

Wang Yidao was taken aback and was about to inquire.Unexpectedly, these big men were like wolves and tigers, and they arrested a whole family of men, women and children without any explanation.

Looking at his clothes, Wang Yidao knew that they were the officers and soldiers who attacked Luoyang City yesterday.He hurriedly shouted: "Although the villain runs this butcher's shop, he only earns two hard-earned money every day. He eats and drinks every day, and there is not much left. What's more, the mother-in-law at home is also fat and ugly, and she is not worthy of you." The military master is thinking about it!"

As a result, before he finished speaking, he was roughly interrupted by the leading officer, who said with a strange smile: "Who wants your money, mother-in-law, but go attack the city with me."

ah?Only then did Wang Yidao realize that he wanted to drive his whole family to attack the city!He hurriedly yelled and begged the officers and soldiers to let his family go, but the officers and soldiers ignored him.

Instead, he sent two men into the house to grope for a while, and rolled out some soft stuff before he could rest.

Wang Yidao was heartbroken, but he could only watch helplessly as his hard-earned money was taken away. There was nothing he could do.

Afterwards, when Wang Yidao's family was escorted out of the hospital, they realized that there was a commotion outside, all of them were neighbors who had been arrested.

Some escaped by chance, just like fleeing rabbits, being chased away by the officers and soldiers behind.

Officers and soldiers arrested civilians outside the city to serve as cannon fodder, and the news spread to Hong Niangzi, Zhang Shenyan, Song Xiance and others.

Everyone hurriedly boarded the city tower and looked outside, only to see the shops and houses attached to the outside of Luoyang city were ablaze.The sound of screams and cries came from afar.

"What are the officers and soldiers doing outside the city?" Hong Niangzi frowned and asked strangely.

"Catch the strong men and prepare to drive away the siege!" Zhao Lizi explained through gritted teeth.

"Can you harass me like yesterday?" Hong Niangzi is also smart, she has seen pigs run before eating pork, after yesterday's battle, at least she has some experience.

"The final general is willing to go!" Zhao Lizi was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly responded.

The red lady nodded and let him go.Then he asked left and right: "If the officers and soldiers drive the people to attack the city, what should we do?"

Everyone was silent for a while, Zhang Dudu frowned, stood up and said: "As in the case of officers and soldiers besieging a city, hit them with guns!"

What Zhang Dudu said was simple, everyone knew what was going on.To put it bluntly, no matter what officers and men he is, as long as he dares to attack, I will dare to kill him!

But people are emotional animals after all, and not everyone can accept the brutal massacre of unarmed civilians.

What's more, these people are more or less involved with the people in the city, and they may even be a family.If anyone ordered the shooting, I am afraid that he will also bear the infamy.

"Since that's the case, let the soldiers make preparations early. If you kill them all at once, don't be too soft!" Hong Niangzi raised her brows and ordered murderously.

"Ma'am?" Zhang Shenyan couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words. The red lady could have been ambiguous, so she didn't need to be so straightforward.He also said that Hong Niangzi didn't realize this, so he quickly reminded her.

"There is no need to say too much! But if there are merits and demerits, I will bear them all." The red lady replied unswervingly.

In fact, the red lady is not without guilt and hesitation.But this matter is Zhang Shun's family matter after all, now Zhang Shun is no longer, if she can't stand up and bear the blame, who can let Zhang Shun bear the blame for Zhang Shun?

When Zhang Shun was about to leave, there was a very good saying. "Now that I have become a rebel, there is no turning back when I open my bow."

In the past few days, Hong Niangzi pondered over and over again before she suddenly understood.It turns out that no one has a way to turn back for this rebellion, but the Zhang family can only go one way to the dark, and there is no way to turn back.

That being the case, if you want to maintain the image of a wise gentleman, then let me, a "thief woman", bear the infamy!

At noon, Zhao Lizi returned to the city covered in blood.Although his harassment has achieved certain results, there are too many officers and soldiers, and too many victims and people, and it is impossible to save them.The rebels were exhausted, so Zhao Lizi had no choice but to go back to the city to rest.

Soon after that, the officers and soldiers really drove the people to attack the city.

Most of the first to go into battle were Ding Zhuang outside the city of Luoyang, each holding baskets, wooden basins, and even a piece of rags, rotten clothes and other utensils, carrying a bagful of soil, driven by the officers and soldiers, timidly moving towards Luoyang City come over.

Everyone could see from the city that the officers and soldiers wanted to drive these people away to fill up the moat of Luoyang City.

The moat is three feet wide and five feet deep. How can it be so easy to fill?Chen Qiyu, who ordered the attack on the city, was also a ruthless person. How many corpses would it take to fill up a section of the moat?
What's more, in front of the moat, there are the Zhangyu high fence set up by the original Henan officials, and the trenches, guard slopes and other facilities specially ordered by Zhang Shun to dig.

Chen Qiyu was ruthless, and the red lady was even more ruthless.As long as you are willing to die, I am willing to bury you. I will kill as many people as you come, and I will accompany you to the end!
When the first wave of young men passed through the earthen wall outside the city, climbed up to the top of the guard slope, and exposed themselves to the artillery of the rebel army without any cover.

As soon as the red lady gave an order, all the artillery in the enemy platform fired at once, and a burst of blood mist erupted from the bodies of those young men, and then they fell down like cutting wheat, unable to get up again.

Those young men had a lot of fun watching the officers and soldiers attacking the city yesterday, how could they have imagined that it would be their turn today?
Many people were scared out of their wits. They either threw themselves on the ground like ostriches, trembling with their buttocks pouted, or they threw away the soil in their hands, turned around and fled yelling.

Seeing this, the officers and soldiers behind Ding Zhuang galloped over, cut down more than ten people in a row, and drove them to continue running towards the moat.

These cavalrymen slashed and yelled loudly: "The thief's artillery has fired, why don't you rush up quickly! Do you have to wait until the thief's artillery is reloaded before you go up to die?"

For a long time, under the pressure of knives and guns, these young men had to endure the fear and move forward.

Then, he suffered another round of artillery fire from the rebel army, leaving dozens of corpses behind, and turned around to flee.

Repeated several times, Liu Guozhen, the deputy commander in chief, couldn't see it anymore, and quickly remonstrated: "My lord, if it's like this, I'm afraid it will be sent from morning to night, from today to tomorrow, and the lives of these young men will be sacrificed." Give it all away, and it won't help anything!"

"Then send the old, weak, women and children up!" Chen Qiyu said coldly, "I want to see if it's me who has more people, or the thieves who have more bullets and gunpowder!"

Liu Guozhen felt cold when he heard the words, but he still insisted: "The thieves rely on guns and cannons. If they fight hand-to-hand, they will lose ten times to our officers and soldiers! Why don't you let Ding Zhuang lie in front of his cannons? Then take the opportunity to hide and kill, and should seize the city gate in one fell swoop!"

"As long as the gate is opened and the army follows, Luoyang City will not be difficult to break!"

Chen Qiyu, governor of Henan Province, thought about it and felt that this was not a solution, so why not give it a try.

But "Master Superintendent" is a scholar after all, how can his technique be so rough?

Liu Guozhen's words reminded Chen Qiyu: the bandits in Luoyang City are few and weak, so why not attack with four gates, but if there is one gate to attack, Luoyang City is within my grasp!
It didn't matter that Chen Qiyu's change of formation was going to attack from all directions.It caused a lot of trouble for Hong Niangzi, Zhang Shenyan and others.

Because in Luoyang City, not only are there not enough soldiers, but there are also not enough generals.There was no other way, after a brief discussion among the people, Zhao Lizi, Ma Yingniang, Zhang Dudu and Wang Shaoyu had to be appointed to be in charge of a city gate respectively.

Among them, Gao Yizhi assisted Zhao Lizi; Han Lin assisted Ma Yingniang; Zhao Yutou assisted Zhang Dudu; Song Xiance assisted Wang Shaoyu.And Hong Niangzi and Zhang Shenyan said they would sit in the central army and lead Zhang Shun's personal guards as surprise soldiers to support the four sects at any time.

The officers and soldiers also attacked in an orderly manner. Chen Qiyu, governor of Henan Province, was in charge of the Chinese army and supported him with [-] elite cavalry.The rest of the deputy generals Yang Hualin, Liu Guozhen, generals He Renlong and Liu Qian were in charge of attacking a city gate respectively.

Especially that Yang Hualin did not change his mind. After contacting the rebel army, he deliberately inquired about the location of Ma Yingniang's city gate, and asked to change the attack location with other generals.

The Governor Chen Qiyu almost vomited blood, he couldn't help but cursed: "It's really rotten wood. If it's under the city of Luoyang, what is a mere woman worth? It's worth it?"

That Yang Hualin was not ashamed, but rather proud, and quickly bargained with Chen Qiyu: "In this case, I also ask Mr. Chen to give me permission to reward this girl after the city is broken!"

Chen Qiyu nodded, and agreed perfunctorily.It's just that he couldn't help but whisper in his heart: this servant has begged for this woman many times, so she must have been a beautiful woman at that time.If this girl is really captured by me, why don't I take it myself, how can I make wedding clothes for others?

After thinking up to this point, Chen Qiyu asked again: "What's the name of this girl? I can tell the difference!"

Yang Hualin only thought that Chen Qiyu agreed, and couldn't help but said happily: "It is said that this girl is called Ma Yingniang, and she is the concubine of the bandit chief, please take care of me, Master Supervisor!"

Chen Qiyu nodded, waved his hand and said, "Understood, pass on the order, and whoever wins Ma Yingniang will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver!"

It turns out that this guy also has a lot of calculations. If someone captures Ma Yingniang, he will just tie him up to receive the reward.If it's really a beautiful fairy, I'll accept it; if it's Zhongli Wuyan's generation, it doesn't matter if he sells his favor!
