Chongzhen Undergraduates

Just after midnight, someone dug a hole in a haystack in the village, and several black figures quickly crawled out of the hole, disappearing into the dark corner of existence in the blink of an eye.

Under the village, the men who had slept all day were woken up one by one.There was constant snoring on the ground, and the underground was busy.

"Your team goes to Lao Wang's house; you go to Li Zhuzi's house; and you go to Zhang Blacksmith's house..." Zhang Qi personally arranged.

"Boss, how will we fight?" A young man was very excited. He had only fought before, and this was his first time fighting a war.

"Will there be a fight?" Zhang Qi looked at the young man and wanted to bring him along.

"That's for sure, I'm the best fighter in our village." The young man poked his neck proudly.

"Blow it!" Another young man next to him was not convinced.

"If you don't believe me, let me compare with you..."

"Okay! After you go up, be gentle. First block the gate of the yard and the gate of the house, and pile up firewood to burn them to death in the house." Zhang Qi looked around contemptuously, thinking about this Chu'er only knows how to fight, but doesn't know how to kill at all.

"Boss, where will we live if the house burns down?" The young man was puzzled, didn't he mean to kill the Tartar soldiers?How to burn down the house.

"Is the house more important or life more important?" Zhang Qi said angrily.

"House is important. We can't marry a wife without a house." Several young people said in unison.

"Hey! Your heads are full of mud." Zhang Qi was helpless. This was probably the disadvantage of Daming's marriage. Girls married not men, but houses.

An hour later, the weather turns cold, which is the time when people are most likely to doze off.

In a corner of a courtyard in the village, a wooden plank on the ground was gently pushed away from below. The young man glanced out and saw that there was no one in the middle of the courtyard.

He jumped out of the hole like a monkey, and then slid down the darkest place at the bottom of the wall to the bottom of the window.

The young man listened for a while, making sure that everyone in the room was asleep, then picked up a small stone and threw it on the board just now.

More than a dozen men crawled out of the hole and quickly started working in the yard.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!" A rush of gongs woke up Lai An, who was soundly asleep, and he got up without taking off his armor, which was also the experience of Hou Jinbing.

"What happened?" Lai An raised a long knife and rushed out of the gate.

"General, there are thieves in the village, and they are setting fire everywhere." The soldiers rushed over to report in a panic.

At this time, there was only thick smoke coming out of the village, and no obvious fire was seen.

"What are you doing at night? Why did the bandits come in?" Lai was puzzled, he had clearly placed the sentinel two miles away.

"This village is full of tunnels. There are tunnels in every yard. Bandits come in through tunnels."

"Authentic?" Lai An was shocked, and quickly looked at the yard where he lived vigilantly.

Just when he was on guard, a few men appeared from a corner of the yard, and rushed towards him with a long gun.

Lai Nuo and his own soldiers swung their spears in unison, killing two men in a row. The other men saw that something was wrong, turned around and slipped down the cave again.Lai Nu wanted to cut another one, but as soon as his front foot reached the hole, an arrow flew out of it, Lai Nu couldn't dodge, and hit his shoulder.

At this moment, the whole village was already in flames, there were shouts of killing everywhere, and there were fights in every courtyard.Lai An hurriedly ran out of the yard, just in time to see a burning soldier running out of the corner, running around along the alleys of the village.Several other fire men were rolling all over the ground, and a group of bandit soldiers rushed to the front from the yard, and greeted the rolling soldiers with long spears.

"The thieves are powerful, retreat quickly!" Lai An hurriedly ordered to withdraw the troops, and they couldn't fight in this village at all.

A horn sounded, and countless soldiers came to their senses and ran out of the village in a panic.

"Kill!" Zhang Qi held a machete and led a group of young men to rush out from all the alleys, chasing Hou Jinbing's buttocks and killing them all the way.

After Jin Bing left the village and gained a foothold, he wanted to form a battle formation to resist under Lai An's organization.I saw countless holes in the fields outside the village, and people kept coming out like ants.

"Quickly withdraw!" Lai An couldn't see it, and he still couldn't stay here.

Jin Bing ran all the way, Zhang Qi's men chased them all the way, new holes were still opened in the woods, covering Jin Bing for more than ten miles.

Chapter 2 Nineteen: Expansion

"Hahaha, Brother Yao Hai, Jin Bing is not as powerful as you said!" Zhang Qi is very proud these days, he is famous in Liushu Village.

In the battle against Lai Nuo, he was the one who gained the most profit, because others were fighting other golden soldiers, and he directly encountered Lai Nuo.

And the loss is not big, and the gains are full.After the first battle, several big leaders suddenly discovered that this was much more profitable than roadblocking and robbery.

Especially armor and hard bows, these things are what the Yuyuan people need most now, and they are also thrown to them by the golden soldiers for nothing.

"These are just the golden soldiers stationed there, not their elite. I suggest that you should go south. The terrain here is too flat. If the Tartars send elite cavalry, the consequences will be disastrous."

As a connector, Yao Hai specially escorted the weapons.While accepting the weapons and equipment provided by Daming, the people of Yuyuan seized the spoils of war, and their strength suddenly increased.At least in terms of weapons, it is definitely on par with Hou Jin's local garrison.

"What are you afraid of! This hundred-mile elm forest is the best barrier to stop the cavalry, plus our tunnels, I guarantee that they will come and die as many times as possible. Right?" Zhang Qi boasted loudly.

"Yes!" The people around echoed loudly, obviously they could no longer listen to Yao Hai's advice.

"Then you still need to build more tunnels. In case you can't fight, you can use the tunnels to avoid and retreat." Yao Hai saw that he couldn't be persuaded, so he had to give some suggestions.

"Brother, don't worry. Our tunnels extend in all directions, and the longest tunnel is twenty or thirty miles long." A young man stretched his arms and gestured vigorously.

"I decided that we should take the opportunity to occupy the county. Now that Dongming, Dingtao, Chengwu and other counties are all empty, it is a good time for us to occupy." Zhang Qi is already addicted to robbery.

"Brother Zhang Qi is right. Take advantage of this opportunity to expand the territory and recruit more soldiers. We are not afraid of how many Tartars will come." Liang Min and others also agreed.

Yao Hai was frightened by these words, Hou Jin is looking for trouble for you, why do you still take the initiative to provoke him?

"It must not be done. Once the county is attacked, Hou Jin will definitely retaliate wildly, and the consequences will be very serious." Yao Hai tried to stop it.

"Brother, you have the final say on this. We are not under the control of the Great Ming Emperor. When the time comes to seize the territory, will Chongzhen have to seal us a king or something?" Liang Min's exaggerated expression has already shown that these people are conceited To the extreme.

Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others can claim to be self-proclaimed, and they have given more people unlimited reverie.Ever since Chen Sheng yelled that sentence in Daze Township: princes, generals, would you rather be kind?Afterwards, the land of Central Plains has never lacked incidents of counterattacks by dicks.

If there is a disagreement, I will find a reason to push you off the chair.It's almost become the norm.Of course, there are still many people who envy the feudal marquis and prime minister, which seems to be a little less difficult.

The story of Li Zicheng shows that the fate of being the emperor is too miserable, so he might as well be named king.Yao Hai guessed that the leaders of Yuyuan now have this dream in their hearts.

On the first day of July in the 18th year of Chongzhen, the leaders of Yuyuan attacked separately and captured Caozhou, Dongming, Dingtao, Chengwu and other counties.

The capital was in an uproar.Dorgon severely reprimanded Hong Chengchou and ordered him to deal with the Yuyuan Army within a time limit.Dorgon's meaning is very clear: You can't even deal with a group of small bandit forces, and you are still expected to rule the entire Central Plains?

In the governor's yamen of Kaifeng Prefecture in Henan, Hong Chengchou's face was livid while holding the imperial decree. All the subordinates in the yamen were in fear, and no one dared to get close to the powerful governor.

Although Dorgon gave Hong Chengchou the military and political power to control the three provinces, in fact he could not move any of Houjin's regular field troops.All are in the hands of the three princes.

He Hong Chengchou can only command the local garrison, or second- and third-rate troops.Even Jiang Xiang from Shanxi, he couldn't move.

Hong Chengchou is very experienced in fighting rogues. Back then, he led the officers and soldiers of Ming Dynasty to beat Li Zicheng and others into a trough.

There must be soldiers, and there must be elite soldiers.This is an idea that flashed in Hong Chengchou's head.
