Please ask me to be the emperor

As a "roving bandit", the leisurely life is always short-lived, and running around is their normal state. Zhang Shun had just had two days of leisure when he was called over by "Purple Golden Liang" and "Chuang Jiang". They took advantage of the fact that Shanxi Governor Song Tongyin had not yet reacted and discussed the next step of capturing surrounding counties and towns. In this way, you can clear the eyes and influence of the surrounding officers and soldiers, and secondly, you can collect useful materials in time to strengthen yourself.

After some discussion, the three decided to let "Purple Golden Liang" attack Duanshi Town, which was far away, and Zhang Shun to attack Dayang Town, which was closer. The "General" Huang Lai'er was responsible for sweeping the eastern area of ​​Zezhou and waiting for an opportunity to attack Lingchuan County, while the "Nine Dragons" were temporarily responsible for the defense of Zezhou.

After Zhang Shun and the other two people finished discussing, they returned to their residence to make arrangements for the battle. Since Dayang Town is not very far from Zezhou City, it is only sixty or seventy miles away. If Zhang Shun and others traveled lightly, it would only be a day's journey.

Therefore, Zhang Shun simply arranged for Chen Jindou to lead the baggage battalion, second artillery unit, women's battalion, blacksmith battalion, etc. to stay in Zezhou City, while waiting and looking for the long-lost Chen Changzhen and his cavalry. He took four troops at the front, rear and left, including pioneer Jiang He, cavalry Liu Cheng, scout Zhao Lizi and his own troops, totaling 1,500 infantry and 200 cavalry. They also carried five three-inch squatting tiger cannons. Attack Dayang Town.

Dayang Town, known as Yang'a in ancient times, is an ancient town with a history of more than 2,000 years. It has been the seat of county, princely state, and county for more than 800 years. The town is rich in mineral resources. Since ancient times, it has been said that "the sword of Yang'a can cut off cattle and horses on land and swans on water." In the Ming Dynasty, it was famous for the production of steel needles, and was even known as the "Acupuncture Capital of Kyushu" , Dayang steel needles are not only sold throughout the country, but also exported to Central Asia.

In addition to its rich mineral resources, exquisite needle-making industry and developed commerce, Dayang is also a world-famous hometown of singing and dancing. The "Yang Aqi Dance" is famous all over the world. Zhao Feiyan, who has a slender waist and light palms, once learned singing and dancing. Princess Yang's Mansion. Therefore, the wealth of Dayang Town was praised by people at the time: there are two Dayangs in the east and west, four villages in the north and south, eighteen villages and seventy-two lanes along the river.

Unfortunately, for the "thieves and bandits", none of this matters. What matters is how much material, money and beautiful women its wealth can provide for itself. "Lao Huihui" had already plundered this place once before. "Zijinliang" and others felt that there might not be much oil and water left here, so it was Zhang Shun's turn to attack this place.

However, Zhang Shun did not know these things. After eating early in the morning, he arranged the formation step by step and led the team to set off immediately. In order to prevent raids by officers and soldiers, he sent Zhao Lizi's scouts out early and reported to himself the surrounding disturbances from time to time.

The journey was uneventful. Zhang Shun's team traveled twice as many routes and arrived at Dayang Town in the evening. Dayang Town is quite similar to Runcheng Town. Both are prosperous in iron smelting and are famous for their trade in iron goods. Both of them have cities built in them, which are not comparable to ordinary towns.

When Zhang Shun arrived, Dayang Town was already prepared. Although the defense was quite hasty, it was impossible to capture the city in one go. When Zhang Shun saw this, he scolded "Purple Gold Liang" for cheating.

It turns out that "Zijinliang" told Zhang Shun before that Lao Huihui easily captured this city twice. There is no defense in this city, and Zhang Shun only needs to lead people to take over. Zhang Shun only said that he was familiar with the enemy's situation, so he became careless. Although Zhang Shun had tried his best to be fully prepared, leading all his soldiers and carrying five three-inch tiger squatting cannons, he still wanted to save trouble and left Li Shi'an and the remaining artillery pieces in Zezhou.

Having no choice, Zhang Shun sent Jiang He to attack tentatively, but without any effect. Zhang Bian knew that this kind of city could not be conquered overnight, so he ordered his soldiers to set up camp and sent people to report to Zezhou City overnight, preparing to mobilize Li Shi'an to attack the city.

It turned out that Zhang Shun was quite unlucky. There was a big official in this town named Zhang Guangkui, who went to Shandong Province to participate in politics and was in charge of the Eastern Salt Affairs. Just at this time, when he returned to Dayang's home, he heard that the bandits were attacking, so he led his brother to guard Zhang Guangxi, Qianzong Liu Zhian and his adopted son and disciples to resist Zhang Shun.

At that time, General Qian Liu Zhian had 500 soldiers under his command, plus Zhang Guangkui's adopted son disciples and 3 to 500 people from the towns and cities, the total number of defenders was about 1,000. Zhang Guangkui saw that Zhang Shun had few men and horses, so he said to his brother Zhang Guangxi and Qianzong Liu Zhian: "I heard that if you defend for a long time, you will lose. The thieves have just arrived and there are not many men and horses. We can take advantage of their unstable footing and attack their camp at night. Thieves." It came with noise and left without any restraint. If you are frightened by this, it will not be difficult to break it!"

After hearing this, Mr. Qian Liu Zhian's face turned green, and he quickly said: "The thieves are powerful and should not be underestimated."

That Zhang Guangkui was not an unwise person, but he had a higher status and the information he got was not something that President Qian could understand. He had already known that Zezhou City had been breached, and there were only Wu Kai's troops nearby, and the volunteers and recruits were no more than a thousand, so they were of little use.

There are rogue bandits in Shanxi, and the troops of Governor Song Tongyin are not here at all. If he and others were to defend this city, they would soon be besieged by a large number of bandits. At that time, they would probably be surrounded and killed in the city. Therefore, he felt that he could only have a chance to save Dayang Town and the people in the city by taking a risk, defeating the bandits in front of him, and then joining up with Wu Kaixian. The tragic situation of the previous period when thieves broke into the city has still not had time to recover. The consequences of mourning in almost every household and mourning in every household will never happen again.

Zhang Guangkui and Zhang Guangxi were brothers, and their official status was higher than that of General Manager Liu Zhian. Liu Zhian had no choice but to reluctantly agree to their request. Late at night, under the repeated urging of the Zhang brothers, Mr. Qian Liu Zhian thought: If the arms cannot twist the thighs, bring more gongs and drums on the left and right to make a noise. If the thieves retreat or blow up the camp, it will be considered as my contribution; The camp was stable, so I took the soldiers back to the city early, and the two brothers couldn't complain. Thinking of this, he reluctantly led his five hundred soldiers and marched out of the city carrying gongs and drums.

Zhang Shun was so clever. After reading various novels and movies in later generations, he had already understood the enemy's tricks of attacking and stealing camps at night. Therefore, every time he sets up camp, he arranges two sentries, both light and dark, to monitor the enemy's movements to prevent the enemy from stealing the camp.

Sure enough, this Dayang Town is not honest either! As soon as Mr. Qian Liu Zhian led the team to open the city gate, someone informed Zhang Shun over there. Zhang Shun immediately ordered all the troops to get up. The men were given titles and the horses were reined in. They did not mention their actions.

Although Chief Qian Liu Zhian was uneasy, he finally got to Zhang Shun's camp. Seeing the dark cave of the bandits' camp, they knew that Zhang Shun and others had already rested. They were overjoyed and quickly ordered the soldiers to attack, beating gongs and drums in an attempt to scare Zhang Shun's camp.
