Chapter 127 Breaking through the Zhou Family Fort

In a somewhat dilapidated courtyard, there were bursts of arguments, and the room was full of officers in armor.

"You're crazy, Zhou Zheng, that's the new Lord Qianhu. If we do this, if he joins us in the future, he won't be able to eat and walk around in the future." A general with a dull face, a thick face and dark skin Dao, after he finished speaking, the other seven hundred households in the room all looked over, and their eyes were also worried.

"What do you know?" Zhou Zheng snorted coldly, with resentment in his eyes, and said, "Do you know what Qin Xiaochuan's Shunchang Fort looks like?" Zhou Zheng snorted coldly.

"I heard that the establishment there is very prosperous, and there are rows of merchants in the city. Just collecting taxes is enough for me to live happily for a year."

"And the city wall, it's so tall and outrageous, it's comparable to the city wall of the state capital"

"Yeah, we'd better not provoke such a ruthless character"

"Hehe, what you are talking about is just one of the Shunchang Fort, and the other." Zhou Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, with a playful look in his eyes, and said, "Not a single acre of land in his fort was occupied by the officers, and all of it was evenly distributed to each of the fortresses." In the hands of others, none of his officers have servants, and his fortress only has the main barracks, and there are no servants. Do you understand what this means?"

A group of hundreds of military officers understood what he meant.Their faces changed drastically, and one of them said: "Impossible, impossible, how could he be so stupid, it must be better than not seeking profit for himself."

"If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself. If what I say is false, there will be a thunderbolt." Zhou Zheng said, but he didn't speak, but the fact is.

"These servants of mine are the ones I spent a lot of money to train. If they don't become that boy's regular barracks by then, no matter how I survive in the future, it's all my life."

"What's the family man? These fields of mine have been cultivated by generations of my family. Could it be cheaper for those refugees?"

"But that guy is a ruthless man who defeated the Shanxi bandits in the field!" The simple and honest dark officer said with worry on his face, "Can we provoke such a person?"

A group of people fell silent for an instant, the bandits from Shanxi, that was Yang Yufan and Liu Zeqing, both of them had no choice but to be defeated by him in the field, everyone was worried.

Hahaha——Zhou Zheng laughed loudly, and said, "Shanxi bandits, hehe, you all know the real situation that day. Shunchang Fort is powerful, but it doesn't have the ability to defeat Shanxi bandits in field battles."

"Ah, that's not right. It's clearly stated in the situation. It was defeated in the field. Could it be that my subordinates made a mistake?" Well, the swarthy officer asked strangely.

"Yeah, he wouldn't dare to falsely report such military exploits, would he?"

"It wasn't him who defeated it." Zhou Zheng bought a pipe and said, "It's a traitor. He sent people to sneak into it. He was chased and killed by the bandits in Shanxi for more than 100 miles. He was exhausted. He sent people Among them, Yang Shuai shouted that the cavalry had arrived, and the bandits retreated immediately. At this time, he sent his men to pursue him. This battle can only be a coincidence."

Everyone thought about it and slowly accepted Zhou Zheng's statement. Otherwise, the defeat of the bandits by a hundred households would be shocking to the world. In this way, the strategy worked, and there were various innate conditions. The fear subsided a little.

"And the most important thing is, who is Qin Xiaochuan? He is just a guy who just jumped out of nowhere and has no backing. He took advantage of this opportunism to get a job in a thousand households with Yu Dongyang's thigh." He His words made the faces of all the households change a lot. As their former boss, Zhou Zheng's words still held great weight in their hearts. After some deception by him, it seemed that Qin Xiaochuan was really a weakling. .Zhou Zheng sneered in his heart. At this moment, he was wishfully attributing the cause of the siege to the traitors among the bandits, but he ignored the siege for several days and left the bandits helpless. However, he selectively forgot.

"Besides, we didn't break the law. Why did he punish us? We were sick and didn't welcome him. What's the matter?" Zhou Zheng smiled dismissively.

"Yes, in the future, let this ignorant kid understand that don't think that hugging Yu Dongyang's thigh will do anything."

Poor Xiao Chuan is regarded by a kind of Baihu as if he got the position of Qianhu because he hugged Yu Dongyang's thigh, but he ignores his own ability.

Bang———The door was pushed open, Zhang Fang, who had broken his right arm in the accountant, came into the room after a simple bandage, his face was bloodless, and he cried: "Then Qin Xiaochuan bullied others, he beheaded the little one. Right Arm, he also said that anyone who dares not to hand over the land tax before noon tomorrow will be punished as treason, and the whole family will be executed."

Si——all the hundreds of households gasped.

"Impossible, he is absolutely alarmist, alarmist." Zhou Zheng stood up, with disbelief in his eyes, and said: "How many military households, how many family members, how many lands were invaded in the Ming Dynasty, if he treats me, it is tantamount to offending everyone. , who dares to let him be promoted in the future, who dares to go to his guard."

"That's right, I think he's crazy if he hasn't handed over the whole family of Heaven and Earth Clan Ding and put him to death. He's not afraid of slipping his tongue if he does this."

*********************
Tread Tread.There was a sound of orderly footsteps, and the fortress surrounded by earthen walls in front of me wrote the words Zhoujiabao. This was the Baihusuo where Zhou Zhengyi was at the beginning of that day. A team of dozens of servants in armor were holding firecrackers, bows and arrows. Standing in battle against the city.The person in the lead is Zhou Zheng's adopted son, Zhou Qiang, shouting at the city wall, saying: "Qin Qianhu, what are you doing, why did you bring soldiers to my guard?"

"Hand over all the land deeds, servant, or attack the city." Standing under the city, Tie Xing shouted sharply like a black bear, his voice like thunder.

After speaking, the three cannons were pushed out, and the loader quickly loaded gunpowder into the sub-cannons, aiming at the city gate.

"Are you crazy?" Zhou Qiang said in the city: "Qin Baihu, you are crazy, this is the Zhou family's field, servant, aren't you afraid of offending the Zhou family by doing this?" He didn't know why the Zhou family was ransacked. As a result of the Xiaochuan thief's backlash, this matter was kept secret, so everyone thought that Qin Xiaochuan was just a guy who came to power with the help of Yu Dongyang.

Xiao Chuan waved his hand, this battle is to establish his prestige, so that he can push forward the policy of Hirata and expelling servants.

Search——The matchlock burned to the bottom of the cannon in an instant, and there was a loud cannon sound that made people's eardrums hurt. Furious flames spewed out from the muzzle, and the iron shell slammed hard on the wooden city gate.

Zhou Qiang's eyes on the city wall were about to burst, looking at the servant behind him, his eyes were full of disbelief, this guy really dared to fire?
Sloppy, with a sound of horses, Wang Dazi's cavalry were all dispatched.

They took the rocket from their backs and ignited it instantly. The tail of the rocket sprayed a long white smoke for a moment, and shot at the Ming army on the city wall with a screeching sound.

ah!There was a scream in Zhou Qiang's ears. He looked over and saw that it was a servant who was afraid of death under him. He even specially made a shield for himself. The defensive effect was excellent. killed.At this moment, the special wooden escape in his hand was pierced by the rocket, and the momentum remained undiminished. It shot through his chest, and he fell to the ground, howling and howling.

He was shocked, what kind of rocket is so powerful?

Bang—With the sound of wood splintering, the crudely built city gate was smashed in half.

kill!Han Gang yelled loudly, and behind him, the spearmen in iron armor rushed towards the city wall with a neat shout.

A few germs guarding the gate on the city wall saw the neat armored soldiers and ran away in fright.

Zhou Qiang saw that the situation was not good, and his heart was shocked. Looking at the orderly armored soldiers below, he felt even more frightened. Didn’t Lord Zhou Zheng say that he was very weak in defeating the Shanxi bandits by opportunistic tactics? If such a well-organized army is weak, then those The servant of the Ming military officer did not want to commit suicide in shame.
