Chapter 59 Support

But on second thought, LiuDi also said that if he did this, he could ensure that the North Gate would not be lost. Outside the North Gate is Xishan Village. It is also reasonable for him to ask his people to stay at the North Gate. At this time, the most important thing is to take his people to the city to assist in defense. As long as this can be done, LiuDi dares to ensure The North Gate is not lost, so he can only grit his teeth and promise to come down first.

So he nodded and said, "Although this one is a little difficult, we must also be reasonable people and should be able to agree to this condition outside Liu! All right, that's it! I don't know if there are any other requirements outside Liu!"

LiuDi nodded and said, "Please ask Brother Qian for this one!" I will make it clear to the sent family. After entering the city, you must do as I said, otherwise he would rather bring people back than be separated and arranged separately! This is very important. I hope Brother Qian must ask Zhao for forgiveness. As long as this is done, Liu can guarantee that as long as the other city gates are fine, the north gate will be foolproof!

The second is that I, Ding Xiangyong, have some birds bought from the south in my hand, which is a little taboo, but I hope Lord Zhao will not be embarrassed. These birds were bought by Liu with a lot of money, and they are also the foundation of Liu's foothold here. Please don't confiscate them, otherwise... ...Brother Qian should know the consequences!"

"Oh? This is a good thing! It is said that the birds produced by the Ferro machine are quite sharp, but I didn't expect Liu to spend a lot of money to buy these birds! In this case, it should be a good thing for defending the city! Please rest assured that I, Qian, can answer on behalf of you, and we will never force you! It's all used by the family outside Liu!"

Although he was a little surprised when he heard the inspection, he was very happy. If there were more birds of the city, he would be more sure to defend the city. Since these birds were bought by Liu Differing a lot of money, even if others were jealous, they would not dare to seize the city at this time. Otherwise, the rebels would not take the city. After beating down, the city turned upside down first, which would be a big trouble. At this time, which is more important? He and Zhao Zhizhou should still be able to see clearly. No wonder LiuDi just dared to pat his chest to guarantee that his people can guard the north gate. It turned out that there are these birds as support!

"The third! Liu also knows that there are places to use money in the city now. Liu doesn't particularly ask for rewarding money! But Liu wants to mention one thing, that is, my family are all piled up with money. They usually eat well and are full before they are willing to work hard. I hope that after they enter the city, they can provide them with enough food, at least some meat! Otherwise, they won't have enough to eat. These guys won't work hard! I hope Brother Qian can forgive me! Lord Zhao, please try your best to meet their requirements!

As for other things, not to mention, it is our duty to help the government guard the city. Even if we guard the city, we dare not ask adults for any additional rewards. As long as we can follow the previous reward, it will be enough to do it at that time!

In addition, Liu also wants to say ugly words in the front. My people guard the north gate, and the north gate can be guaranteed, but in case other city gates are lost, please forgive Liu for saying ugly words in front. My people can't be blindly in the city. Once other places are lost, then they must open the north gate and escape back to me. Come on!"

After listening to the Qian Patrol, he was a little disapproving. He thought that Liu's different subordinates were really arrogant. When they arrived in the city, they still had to eat well and eat enough. After all, they went to so many people to help the government. If they didn't even let them eat enough, they could eat well. Then I'm afraid you can't expect others to work hard.

As for what Liu said later, although he didn't like it, it was also reasonable. They have guaranteed that the North Gate will not be lost. In case other places are broken by the rebels, then don't expect these people to fight to the death in the city. They will escape back to Xishan Village at that time. I guess they will also No one can stop them.

So after listening to the money inspection, he immediately agreed.

Although when the rebels were found, the rebels were only more than 30 miles away from Muping County, the rebels were not the elite of the rebels. In addition, they also took many people to help them fight, so the speed of the rebels marched very slowly.

On this road, the rebels also constantly sent small troops and horses to attack and loot nearby villages along both sides of the road. In addition, there was ice and snow on the road, and the road was difficult to make. They dragged two more cannons. Of course, they were not the kind of Hongyi cannons weighing 2,000 to 3,000 catties, but just two ordinary large guns of seven or eight hundred catties. Even so, dragging these two guns gives them a headache.

Although the rebel cannons are not too heavy, their cannons are not equipped with light large-diameter wheels, and these two cannons are obviously urban defense guns, mainly used for firing on the wall. Therefore, the rack is made of heavy wood, with four small wheels in the four corners. In such terrain Marching is simply a disaster.

It's not that they want to capture refugees everywhere to help the war. Just carrying two cannons on this road will consume a lot of people's strength. It takes dozens or even nearly 100 people to serve before and after a cannon can slowly roll forward. If they are not careful, the cannon will overturn. The rebel generals will shout, curse and keep waving along the way. Dancing whips and slamming the people who were caught to drag their guns for them. If they are a little slack or lazy, the rebels will raise their knives and kill them. At least dozens of people have been killed along the way.

Anyway, human life is nothing in the eyes of these rebels. What's more, they hate Shandong people to the bone, let alone treat these ordinary people as human beings, so they are not soft-hearted to kill these people.

In this way, they walked as slowly as snails. At the end of the day, they walked less than 15 miles and rested more than ten miles west of Muping County.

This made the defenders of Mouping County and the officials and civilians in the city, who had been nervous all day, breathe a little relief. At least today, they were over, but they were not relaxed in their hearts. They always felt that there was still a knife hanging above their heads, but the knife fell a little late.

The sea wolf troops who went to Muping County this time were led by an army second lieutenant named Li San (guested by book friend Li Feiyan). Li San was very young, just in his early 20s. He was also from Shandong. In his early years, he left home and fled south with his father and was exiled to Fujian, relying on short-term work to make a living.

But later, when his father died, the family lost their ability to live. They had no choice but to live by begging. Later, their families died one by one, leaving Li San wandering around. In the days of begging, Li San learned a lot of things to survive and also learned The heart is cruel.

But after all, he is young. Because he has been hungry for a long time, he is very weak. Occasionally, he was bitten by a dog once four years ago. As a result, the wound on his leg became festers and began to have a high fever. He fell on the roadside and waited to die. He happened to meet a caravan of sea wolves passing by, picked him up, saved his life, and took him to Settling in Tamsui City.

After Li San recovered from his injury, he was not disabled, but left a big scar on his leg. After receiving good care and adequate nutrition, his physical condition was greatly improved. After literacy in the school, he was selected into the army and was quickly promoted to trainee because of his outstanding performance. Officer.

Later, Li San also participated in many battles with the army. He performed quite well. He dared to fight and kill, and was clever and had many ideas. He was soon promoted to a second lieutenant officer, and then promoted to a lieutenant officer. However, this guy has some bad habits, sometimes likes to beat people, and is somewhat lustful, because he made some mistakes. Later, he was demoted to second lieutenant, but continued to hold the rank of second lieutenant and act as a company commander.

This operation to the north, because Li San was originally from Shandong and could speak Shandong dialect, he was selected and sent to Shidao Bay to garrison and lead an infantry company.

Most of the soldiers going north this time are from Shandong. Although they are not all people from the north of Shandong, and their accents are also relatively chaotic, after all, they are all Shandong accents, which is not too suspicious.

Although these soldiers did not belong to a company before, they had received professional military training in the Sea Wolf Army system. After being transferred and reorganized, they quickly merged together and did not reduce their combat effectiveness due to re-kneading.

In addition, everyone is from Shandong and instinctively has a sense of closeness. On the contrary, after a short period of running-in, a stronger fighting force is formed, and there is a brotherhood between them, which makes their cohesion stronger than before.

This time, Liu Di and Wu Shengtian sent people to defend Mouping County, so they sent Li San to the county. Li San was overall responsible for leading three infantry platoons, a township brave platoon, a total of 200 people. In addition, he was equipped with an additional artillery squad and carried a 12-pound mountain howitzer to the county to defend, not one. A full company.

Although he sent so many elite soldiers to the county and carried so many * and a cannon, which was too pompous and arrogant, at this time, Liu Di didn't care so much in order not to let the sea wolf soldiers pay an unnecessary price.

Sure enough, when Li San appeared at the north gate of the county with more than 200 people and a small red cannon, it immediately caused an uproar.

Many people were a little confused when they looked at this army's "village soldiers" and the "bird guns" they were carrying and the cannon they were dragging. They had seen such a luxuriously equipped lineup!

Even the local official army has never had such sophisticated equipment, but the newcomer Liu Dashan actually has so many fierce-looking villagers, and I don't know where to get so many birds and guns, even cannons.

(Today, I still want to give special thanks to the reward of the Wu brothers of Eagle!)
