Chapter 149 Night Battle(1/2)
By Huo Wu and Monk Feng led 3,000 people outside Hezhou City, Chuzhou camp was already full of crop poles.
In the nearby village, soldiers had already returned, leading large animals such as cattle, mules, donkeys, etc., and occasionally a few horses were inside.
Seeing this, Du Laoba immediately jumped up: "Burn donkey meat tonight? You need rib meat with skin, and a bowl of oil!"
However, Huo Wu looked at these animals and noticed that it was strange.
If you want to replenish meat on the spot, you will be the main ones of pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks, but you will not see those.
"Amitabha!"
Monk Feng looked at the group of animals and bowed his head, his lips moving.
Huo Wu could hear clearly, and couldn't laugh or cry.
This fake monk started to recite the "Ksitigarbha Sutra", which was a little too early to be able to be saved!
"Is this going to use the 'Fire Bull Formation'?"
Huo Wu asked Deng Jian: "If you can try it if you go out of the city to fight, if they can't defend the city, they will probably not be able to use it."
"It has been surrounded for five days... One hundred crossbows are placed, and it is useless to wait. You can't wait here for too long! Xiaoxiaohezhou, one hundred crossbows, each of fifty crossbows, is five thousand..."
Huo Wu also read military books and immediately understood what Deng Jian meant.
He looked up at the sky, reached out to feel the wind direction: "There are the southeast winds these days, which is just right!"
With the plan to seize the city, Huo Wu felt a little relieved.
What he was worried about now was news from his son.
"Plot your days, if there is no accident, Xiaobao, water enters and they will leave Bozhou and go to Huangzhou."
Too far away.
Leaving less than a decade from his son, he has already begun to think about his baby.
Deng Jian frowned and said, "Xiaobao is a man, not a big daughter, so he always wants to slap himself!"
"snort!"
Huo Wu didn't like to listen to this: "What's wrong with your son? Who said that your daughter should be raised, and your son would be raised freely? When my Xiaobao was a child, he was not as silly as a mixed boy. He was cleaner and more well-behaved than ordinary people's Xiaoniu... If it weren't for... Xiaobao was willing to do so, I wouldn't have left him in front of him!"
Deng Jian rolled his eyes.
Raising a son like this and not raising a waste is really a smoke from the Huo family’s ancestral grave!
At this moment, Du Laoba had already checked the donkeys one by one and picked out a one-year-old boy.
These animals were all ordered by Deng Jian to recruit, so he couldn't help but pull them over: "Brother Deng, this donkey is good, should you eat it at night? But we can't just eat meat, do we have to drink soup at the bottom? We can't just let everyone smell it!"
Seeing Du Laoba's eyes shining and saliva, what could Deng Jian say?
There were two or three animals on the left and right, and he said, "This donkey meat is added to the above Quchang, and then two cows are sent to the big stove. Add beef soup to everyone... and add more ginger..."
It was late autumn, and it was a bit of cold in the morning and evening.
The previous 13,000 people, plus the 3,000 people brought by Huo Wu and Monk Feng, was 16,000.
Two cows have bones and meat, and a thousand pounds of pounds, so it’s not just about drinking soup.
"Why!"
Du Laoba responded happily and led the donkey to the military stove, personally conveyed Deng Jian's order, then pointed at the donkey, and gestured and said: "Everything is cut with the skin, the ribs are stewed red, the four legs are boiled, the rest is chopped, and the soup is cooked together with the mixed pieces, and add more ginger!"
The leader of the Fire Head Army hurriedly bowed and responded.
This autumn is a good time to get some nourishment, and he really wants to show his skills to the marshal and the generals.
Before dusk, two thousand people sent by Deng Jian came back one after another.
After the Chuzhou Camp, there were several more Zhujiagang Mountains.
As for the animals, they are also hidden here.
After more than twenty villages "requisition", the number of animals was quite considerable.
On average, there are twenty or thirty large animals in a village.
Seeing this, Tang Guang stared at him tightly, and involuntarily compared him to Chuzhou, sighing: "No wonder hezhou is said to be rich. These are ordinary rural farmers. I wonder what the situation is like for the rich gentry?"
Well... When the old problem left by bandits for decades arrives in a place, I always think about how much profit it will be...
...
On the Hezhou City Wall.
The commander and the prefecture have already been sanctioned, but they have already ordered people to pay attention to the movements in Chuzhou camp.
If anything is strange, you must report it.
The two of them were guarding the city gate and did not dare to leave.
The servants set up supper.
The two were speechless, both of them chewed wax.
After putting down the chopsticks, the judge said, "There is the boss..."
After five days of guarding the city, only the commander and the prefecture judge were seen by the governor of Hezhou. No one saw the governor of the prefect because the governor was "ill".
The commander angrily said, "If you don't want to defend the people, you still want to surrender to the enemy. How can you be worthy of being a parent?"
The magistrate of the state smiled bitterly and said, "The old man is old and timid! With Chuzhou's previous example, it is inevitable that he will be afraid of war and cherish his life!"
Four counties in Chuzhou ran away to a Quyang magistrate who did not know how to live or die. The city was against Chuzhou magistrate, Lingshui magistrate, and Binjiang magistrate, who were fighting against the Baishan Army, and they were not allowed to die well.
Among them, Chuzhou magistrate is the worst. I heard that the heads were hanging in Chuzhou for half a month, and the whole family was gone.
Now the commander and the prefecture have joined forces to put the prefect under house arrest, and they have defended the enemy by the city, but they are not at ease.
If you lose, you will inevitably die.
If he wins, then house arrest and seizing the seal will be a death sentence.
Unless the two of them are cruel, they will justify this matter.
The two of them looked at each other, and their hearts were heavy.
But it is not possible to not be under house arrest.
Both of them are from the capital, and they go to the local area to experience their experiences, and their parents and relatives are in the capital.
You can die, but you can't surrender!
Or it will drag down your family.
The two of them were silenced, and the sentries on the city wall came down to report: "The Chuzhou army has returned from the countryside to pull animals and has started to kill cows..."
The commander frowned: "Didn't it say that the Chuzhou army cherishes the people? It was peaceful a few days ago. How did you make trouble today? Or are the words of those cherished people fake, and they are just sticking their own faces?"
The prefecture judge thought for a while and said, "Another time has a Chuzhou army come? Is there any big man here?"
"Master Huo Wu?"
The commander sneered: "I heard that this is a butcher-born man, and his sworn brothers are all bandits in the Black Python Mountain! They are the ones who have been relied on the bandits in the Black Python Mountain! I want to see how rampant this fifth master can be! He is still restless after getting Chuzhou, but he is planning to be with us and the state, so he is not afraid of choking!"
The two stood up and returned to the city wall.
...
Twilight is in full swing.
In the direction of Chuzhou Camp, smoke curled up.
The captain looked at it, with a contempt in his eyes, and showed solemnity.
The state judge also knew about military affairs. After looking at it, he said, "The garrison is not messy, the rules are neat... Before, the central army account left empty space, and we were wondering what it was for. Now it is full, and it seems that it was reserved for the fifth master!"
The commander said angrily: "The elite thieves in white-clothed Chuzhou are all out. If the Huainan Road defenders are willing to dispatch, whether they are aiding Hezhou or directly 'recovering' Chuzhou, they will be able to achieve great success! Hateful! Hateful!"
The state verdict sighed: "Now the court... rarely allocates money. The Huainan Road garrison was the reason for the Niangniu tribe. It only allocated two years of military money, but it was only in the past two years... The Huainan Road garrison 30,000 people always have to use it. It depends on the salt merchants in Yangzhou city. It is said that it is private soldiers, and they are afraid of this world, how can they let the Huainan Road garrison come out? If they are willing to send troops, they will go to Bozhou last winter! Can they still allow a few bullshit marshals in Bozhou to jump around there for more than half a year?"
What's the use of complaining more between the two?
I could only go down the city building in a bad mood
It was dark.
Because of cloudy days, there are no stars and moons.
It is so depressing that it makes people feel uneasy.
"The white-clothed thieves join forces? They won't attack forcefully, right?"
Zhou Jue touched his right eyelid, which was jumping around, and said.
The commander gritted his teeth and said, "Attack, attack, let them taste the taste of a powerful crossbow!"
He did not dare to neglect the situation and ordered the soldiers of Hezhou to take turns to stand by the city to prevent the white-clothed thieves from siege attacking the city.
