The end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 37 Enemy Invading 1

In a rich and luxurious living room, there are seven people of different looks and ages, but they all have common characteristics, that is, they are luxurious and rich in appearance, with gold and silver jade fingers in their hands, hats and shoes on their clothes, which are inlaid with gemstones and emeralds. At a glance, they are from a large family.

One of the middle-aged men in his fifties sat on the main seat in the living room, and the other six sat on chairs on both sides.

The middle-aged man sitting on the main seat said, "This time I invited you to come because of the proposal of our county magistrate. I want to hear what you think about this matter?"

One of the middle-aged people, about 30 years old, and then the man sitting on the main seat said, "Mr. Zhang, I, Wang Hongyang, listen to you. What do you want to do? I, Wang Hongyang, follow suit. Our seven families are all large families here, and there are at least four or five hundred families in each family, enough to make up a team of more than 2,000 people. It's okay."

The man known as Mr. Zhang, after listening to Wang Hongyang, nodded with satisfaction. The reason why Mr. Zhang invited these six people is mainly because the master in the county felt that his appeal could not impress these squires at all. After all, there were not too many things he could promise.

However, in these ten miles and eight villages, this old man Zhang is still very face-saving. The master gave Mr. Zhang the twenty-thirth of the county magistrate originally allocated to other participants, and the old man quickly agreed to help the master persuade these squires and let them agree to send troops.

Mr. Zhang is the kind of relatively old among these squires. For these squires, they have more or less relatives. Their relationship with squires is complicated.

Frequent marriage with each other can be said to be a glory, loss and loss, and the interests are the same.

Of course, Mr. Zhang agreed to help the master persuade them and get more for them.

Another person looked at Mr. Zhang and didn't seem to want to say anything, but finally he hesitated and said, "Mr. Zhang, although there are a lot of treasures in Zhuojiabao, we don't have to take this risk to fight with those poles. After all, there are not too many people in our hands. The specific number of poles. The county magistrate didn't make it clear either.

If there are too many poles there, we will lose. If there are not too many poles there. When we see our allied forces go there and they escape, there must be endless troubles in the future. Maybe one day we will go to one of us to harass them, that's not good."

This person's words are also what other people think in their hearts. Otherwise, others would have agreed long ago when they looked at Mr. Zhang's face. Now I haven't agreed to my master for a long time, but there are some questions. They want to figure it out, otherwise it will be very difficult for them to send troops.

Mr. Zhang said, "Boren doesn't have to worry about this. The county magistrate has already told me the details of those poles. The number of poles in that group does not exceed 2,000, and they are dressed in rags. At a glance, he knows that they are composed of some people, and their combat effectiveness is not too strong.

As for the breakthrough of Zhuojiabao, it was entirely because Zhuojiabao was unprepared and was occupied by these people who took the opportunity to occupy Zhuojiabao. Ladies and gentlemen, Zhuo Jiabao is also a big family of our Taihe, and it also has some relationship with us. Now that Zhuo Jiabao has been broken, we should also help Zhuo Jiabao get justice and bring these poles to justice for example.

After listening to Mr. Zhang's words, others suddenly realized that this group of poles is a team of people, so don't worry too much, and there are not many of them, so it should be easy to defeat.

In their eyes, the combat effectiveness of the army composed of those exiles is very weak, and they are not their opponents at all.

At this time, the man named Bo Ren listened to Mr. Zhang's words and said, "Mr. Zhang, since this is the case, I am not afraid. I am willing to send 300 troops to fight with Mr. Zhang."

As soon as Bo Ren finished speaking, the man named Wang Hongyang shouted, "I, Wang Hongyang, am willing to send 400 troops to fight with Zhang Lao."

After listening to their statements, others also knew that it was time to make a statement. Mr. Zhang said to this extent. If he didn't go out of the army again, it would be too ignorant. So one or two began to speak to Mr. Zhang.

"Lao Zhang, I would like to send two hundred troops."

"I am willing to send three hundred troops to command Lao Zhang"

"I would like to send two hundred and five troops"

......

Mr. Zero gathered 2,000 armed family members. In addition, as the previous master said, the county sent 300 soldiers to come. This time, there were a total of 2,300 people. Mr. Zhang looked at the crowd with satisfaction and said, "Well, it's good. I will remember your credit. At that time, I will beat that group of people. When you leave, you will definitely ask the county for more things and give you more.

The others looked happy and said collectively, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."

The old man saw that the matter was done, so he said, "Since everyone has agreed to send troops, please go back to prepare first, gather all the family members of the expedition, and meet in our paper shop tomorrow."

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, let's leave first. Goodbye!"

"Walk slowly, don't send it."

............

"I don't know if Mr. Zhang and others have agreed?" The master came to Mr. Zhang's house, stood in front of Mr. Zhang and said with a smile.

The old man picked up a good teacup on the exquisite table made of mahogany, and then picked up the lid of the teacup with the other hand. He put the teacup in front of his mouth and tasted the expensive tea in the cup little by little. He swallowed the tea that had just now little by little in his mouth and looked up at the master. He said, "Master Li, I have just finished the matter you asked me. The other six families have agreed to send troops. Together, our seven families have 2,000 troops, and your county government will send another 300 troops, which is 2,300 people.

If the information you provide is true, then two thousand and three hundred people can definitely beat the poles of the exiles."

Master Li nodded with a smile and said, "What Mr. Zhang said is that Mr. Zhang said that there are more than two thousand people who will definitely kill those poles."

"Well," Mr. Zhang snorted with satisfaction and said, "I hope Master Li won't forget your promise to me." Come on, Mr. Zhang picked up the cup of fragrant tea again and tasted it.

This tea is the best Mao Jian he got from a vendor. It took him a lot of effort and a lot of money. Every time he made tea, he drank all the tea cleanly, and there was no left at all.

Master Li hurriedly said, "I will definitely give it to Mr. Zhang. The things promised will never be without Mr. Zhang's copper medal. Mr. Zhang just don't worry, just don't worry."

Mr. Zhang put down the teacup, squinted and said, "As long as Master Li doesn't forget, I want to rest and see the guests off!"

"Lao Zhang has a good rest, resign first, resign first..." Master Li said. After saying that, he left the Zhang family.

............

The next day, some of the family members of the seven families and 300 officers and soldiers gathered in the paper shop. There were 2,300 people. Zhang's housekeeper and the county lieutenant Zhang Qian commanded the army. Master Li was watching and played the role of a military sman while helping out ideas.

As soon as they gathered together, Liu Xia sent the scout outside to get the news and quickly ran back to Zhuojiabao to report to Liu Xia.

In the chamber of Zhuojiabao

"General, I didn't expect this group of squires, but I actually wanted to put my hand on our heads and didn't see if they had the ability. Just their more than 2,000 wastes also wanted to destroy us?" As soon as the scout told Liu Xia the news, Niu Chao on one side shouted.

Since he was appointed as the deputy battalion commander of the new barracks by Liu Xia, although Niu Chao did not complain to Liu Xia, he was still a little unhappy, so since there were new soldiers in the new barracks, he has been training new soldiers hard.

This time, when he heard that someone came to hit their attention, Niu Chao couldn't sit still. As a person who had always liked to fight, he felt itchy in the new barracks.

"General, just let me go. I, Niu Chao, will definitely defeat them!"

Liu Xia said, "Niu Chao, you are now the deputy battalion commander of the new barracks. Your current task is to manage the new barracks. As for the war, leave it to other brothers."

After Liu Xia finished speaking, he looked at the soldiers of Hu Ben Camp and said, "Liu Dazhuang, the commander of Hu Ben Battalion, and Jiang Xin, the deputy battalion commander of Hu Ben Battalion, listened to the order!"

"The Last Will"

"I ordered you two to lead the Hu Ben camp out of the city to confront the enemy."

"Yes, General"

Jiang Xin, the deputy battalion commander of the Hu Ben Battalion, is the captain of the first brigade of the Hu Ben Battalion. After Zhang Liang was taken away by Liu Xia as the battalion commander of the new battalion, Jiang Xin replaced Zhang Liang and became the deputy battalion commander of the Hu Ben Battalion.

"Zhang Yuan, the commander of the Wolf Xiao Battalion, and Ma Peng, the deputy commander of the Lang Xiao Battalion, listens to the order!"

"The Last Will"

"I order you two to go to the forest on the left side of Zhuojiabao to ambush."

"Yes."

"Niu Yu, the commander of the Lion Camp, and Lei Ming, the deputy commander of the Lion Camp, listen to the order!"

"The Last Will"

"I order you two to bypass the enemy and go to the rear. Once the Hu Ben Battalion fights with the enemy, you will join the battlefield and attack the enemy from the rear."

"Yes"

Lei Ming, the deputy battalion commander of the Lions Battalion, is also the captain of the first brigade of the Lions Battalion. After Niu Chao was taken away by Liu Xia, he took over the position of Niu Chao.

"Others, in the village, prepare bows and arrows. Let's do well with them!"

"Yes."

Liu Xia thought for a moment and said to Zhang Liang, "How is the situation of the new barracks now?"

Zhang Liang understood Liu Xia's idea and said, "General, now these recruits have not recovered and can't fight at all."

Liu Xia smiled and thought to herself that she was too anxious. The recruits who were just recruited yesterday, if the ordinary people were okay, could take a knife to the battlefield to see blood the next day, but now the people Liu Xia recruited are some exiles, and they are still skin and bones. The head one doesn't have much strength to go to the battlefield at all. The current task of the new barracks is to let them eat and let them return to their previous appearance as soon as possible.
