Chapter 70 Besieged Dou Zhuang
Han Tingxian was speechless under the sharp questioning by Taoist Wuxu.That "Zijin Liang" was a momentary success at any rate. Hearing what the Taoist said was reasonable, he made up his mind to attack Douzhuang. Just as he was about to speak, he heard someone report: "'Optimus Prime' has arrived, carrying three cannons." Ten doors come to help!"

"Zijinliang" was overjoyed upon hearing this, and ran to the door to welcome Zhang Shun's arrival.Zhang Shun did his part this time, and asked his soldiers to pull [-] cannons in bullock carts and enter the "Zijinliang" camp in a show of force.

The peasant army didn't have cannons in their hands, and they had suffered enough from Douzhuang's artillery. When they heard that "Optimus Prime" had brought cannons, they ran out to watch. "Zijin Liang" came out and saw that there were indeed huge iron bumps placed on the ox cart, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

He hurriedly invited Zhang Shun into the account, and hurriedly asked: "How about the 'Optimus Prime' artillery, have you tried it?"

"Don't worry, Erdang, after the cannon was cast, I deliberately attacked a rich villager's house to test its power. After fighting for a day and a night, the cannon did not explode!" Zhang Shun assured, patting his chest.

"Zijin Liang" was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said a little awkwardly: "I wonder if brother 'Optimus Prime' can transfer some of them to me? But all the weapons and horses I have can be exchanged."

It turns out that in this peasant army, although everyone claims to take "Zijin Liang" as the leader, they are actually in an equal relationship. If weapons and food are needed, they can only be exchanged on an equal basis with the consent of both parties.This "Zijinliang" was afraid that the governor of Shanxi Song Tongyin would come to help, and was eager to attack Douzhuang, so he proposed the idea of ​​​​exchanging Zhang Shun's artillery.

Zhang Shun was also very happy when he heard that, he had already mastered the art of casting artillery.Regardless of ancient or modern times, armaments have always been the most profitable business, and he just took advantage of this to make a lot of money, so Zhang Shun readily agreed.

In view of the fact that none of the generals under his command had a complete set of horses, and there was no spare horse, Zhang Shun first proposed to exchange the horses.War horses and artillery are strategic materials for the army of this era. The two bargained for a long time, and Zhang Shun finally negotiated a two-inch caliber tiger cannon for one war horse, and a three-inch caliber tiger cannon for three war horses. s price.

"Zijin Liang" intended to exchange half of Zhang Shun's cannons, and should have given [-] horses, but "Zijin Liang" claimed that he could not afford so many horses, so he wanted to exchange them with weapons and armor.

Zhang Shun pondered for a while, Ma Yingniang, Chen Changliang, and Wei Congyi already had war horses, and only himself, Wu Kong, Xiao Qinhu, Zhang Sanbai and others needed war horses. If no one backed up another war horse, a total of eleven horses would be needed. War horses, and Zhao Lizi and others under his command only had about a dozen pack horses in their hands, so they could barely use them.

However, no matter how Zhang Shun bargained, "Zijin Liang" was only willing to take out ten war horses.Zhang Shun was helpless, so he thought about changing some equipment for the soldiers, so he bought fifty pairs of cotton armor, five hundred spears, and two hundred catties of gunpowder half-bought.

The weapons this time are the same as those given away by "Zijin Liang" last time, and they are all rusted.Although it doesn't look good, but the quality is good, it's enough to use for the time being, and it's better than the equipment that is similar to streaking under my hands.

After each side got what they wanted, they took back their own weapons.On the other hand, Zhang Shun happily equipped his army with cotton armor, and replaced all the combat battalions with real long guns, instead of the various short guns that were less than six feet long before.The machetes, waist knives, axes and other weapons were handed over to the supply battalion.

According to the situation after the completion of the weapons and equipment, Zhang Shun readjusted the team again, so that Chen Changzhu was the front army, Wei Congyi was the rear army, Zhang Sanbai was the left army, Xiao Qinhu was the right army, and his central army was led by Wukong and Liu Yinggui. , each of the above five armies has [-] soldiers.Zhao Lizi still led a hundred men as scouts, and military judge Liu Yinggui still had a hundred men in the central army.

Zhang Wuhao selected [-] people from the supply battalion as gunners to form the artillery team; Ma Yingniang led [-] female soldiers as the female barracks; Liu Gang led [-] blacksmiths as the production battalion; Renhe's property, food, and cloth were all placed under Chen Jindou's command, and were unified under the management of Chen Jindou and Chen Jingzhi.

Zhao Yutou and Zhang Shenyan are both military advisers and are not responsible for specific affairs.So far, Zhang Shuncai has finished reorganizing the soldiers under his command, and initially possessed certain field combat capabilities.Therefore, Zhang Shun cooperated with "Zijinliang", "Laohuihui" and "Eight King Kong" to set up camp and besiege Douzhuang.

Nadou Village is surrounded by water on three sides and mountains on the other side. The water is Qinshui from north to south, and the mountain is Keshan extending from Duanshi Town.Surrounded by water on three sides are Qinshui with fast-flowing water, the peasant army cannot attack.Previously, the "Zijin Liang" mainly attacked from the direction of Keshan, but because of the narrow terrain, many soldiers could not deploy.It was quite similar to Zhang Shun's attack on Linjiazhuang, forming a situation where he could not use his strength.

Fortunately, the area of ​​Dou Zhuang is relatively small, and it is not closely attached to the bank of Qinshui, but has a certain distance from the river.The south gate of Douzhuang is Guobeizhuang, which has been occupied by the "Eight King Kongs"; the north gate of Douzhuang is wider and occupied by the "Old Huihui"; Give Zhang Shun a camp.

Zhang Shun saw that there were only two small gates here, and the city wall was short and high, which was not conducive to attacking; and because it was close to the shore and the ground was wet, it was not convenient to camp, so he left only [-] people from Wei Congyi to station here, and led the camp by himself. Stationed in the southeast corner of Douzhuang.

Although Wei Congyi was cunning and repeated, every time he took refuge in others, he was guarded like a thief. Almost no one was willing to supply him with soldiers and weapons. This time, Zhang Shun added more than a hundred soldiers, and he was quite touched. , quickly assured: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely find a way to break through this door."

Hearing this, Zhang Shun laughed and said: "This place is not conducive to attacking. The 'Zijin Liang' divided this place with us to be stationed and besieged. We had no intention of letting us work hard. Why are you so anxious? I think you are also a veteran. You Just give me a big fanfare, and you don't have to attack the city desperately."

"What's the point of besieging and not attacking?" Since Wei Congyi was born, his family motto has been "the way to be a general is first of all to win. A defeated general cannot be brave."I've never heard of people who don't die in battle.

"In my opinion, the second boss has two minds. We should be careful not to be sold by this person." Zhang Shun thought about it but couldn't get what he wanted, so he instructed.

Therefore, Zhang camped near Qinshui by the way, and Xiao Qinhu, Chen Changbing, and Zhang Sanbai were stationed on the north, west, and south sides respectively, protecting his central army and supply camp inside.Then, they secretly asked people to find several ships and hide them in the camp to prevent accidents.
