The Founding of the Red Chamber

Lin Jing's current plan was to order people to lie in ambush at Quan'an Gate, and at the same time quietly dig out the sand and stones blocking the gate at Anping Gate, which is close to Quan'an Gate. A group of 4000 troops went out of the city. In this way, they encircled Yan Dalang inside and outside, and fought a fierce battle with Japanese bandits near Quan'an Gate for six hours.The Japanese bandits were attacked back and forth, and they were also red-eyed.Fortunately, Yan Ma and Yan Ma also have quite a lot of experience in warfare, and Lin Jing has already told them in advance that if they cannot win, please die on the battlefield.These two people knew that Lin Jing always said the same thing, and when the two met on the battlefield, the brave would win, and both of them risked their lives.Although there were personal guards around them, when only the armored soldiers of the imperial court were left standing, the two of them also had countless injuries.

This battle lasted from midnight to noon, and the sunlight in early October seemed unable to penetrate the chill in the winter sea breeze. In this world of corpses and blood, Lin Jing ordered the two of them to regroup immediately, and then, Picked a Japanese who was still half-lived and looked at the leader to torture him for a while.After the purge of soldiers and horses is completed, Lin Jing has already tortured the Japanese attack route this time, and it is correct and can still be matched with the detailed confession made earlier.Lin Jing then ordered the two of them to bring 4000 people to dinner. Lin Jing was never willing to wrong his soldiers. This time, he killed countless pigs and sheep, all of which were meat. Carrying two days' rations, he went out of the city to help disciple Xiaosan.

The fierceness of this battle has left an extremely gorgeous chapter in the history books of later generations, and even countless literati, ink writers and historians have written about it time and time again.But at this time, the battle is absolutely bloody, brutal, without any aesthetic feeling.Lin Jing ordered the remaining several hundred weak soldiers to guard the city. As for cleaning the battlefield, he handed it over to the yamen servants of the two governments.These are all trivial matters, so Lin Jing doesn't need to worry about them.

In fact, the governor of Kong Xie Zhifu still had some opinions on Lin Jing sending all the intact soldiers to help Tu Xiaosan. He didn't know how many Japanese pirates there were in Tu Xiaosan's side, so he sent all the garrison troops out of the city. There will be another battle in the city... But, in front of Lin Jing now, the two of them dare not say "no".

Lin Jing was very polite, "Right now there are no Japanese bandits in the city, but we already have about [-] Japanese bandits here, and the general will be killed there. I'm afraid there will be more Japanese bandits. I have to ask your lord to call It would be good if the Minzhou soldiers came to support them."

Governor Kong said, "You are so right. Hey, I'm so dizzy." That's right, they have killed all the Japanese bandits outside the city, and they can leave the city. Naturally, they can transfer troops from other places. .

The three of them discussed again, and after that, Lin Jingfang said, "If you two adults have no other orders, I will step back first."

Kong Xie and the two hurriedly said, "Ah Qing, hurry up and take a rest. You haven't closed your eyes for the past two days and one night. You don't have to worry about General Lin. General Lin has his own fortune and will be safe." .There are two of us involved in these affairs in the city, you just need to rest assured."

Lin Jing saluted lightly and returned to the general's mansion.

The two of them didn't know what was going on, probably they were really shadowed by Lin Jing's tricky hands, and they even returned a salute to Lin Jing by mistake. When Lin Jing walked away, the two of them recovered, and secretly spurned Once by myself.Thinking that no matter how tricky Li Xiucai is, he is also an official and jobless person, so we treat him with courtesy.Well, being courteous to a corporal is also a virtue, and in the future, we should treat Li Xiucai more courteously.

In fact, Kong Xie and Kong Xie are considered to be of good quality, such as Mr. Chu, but he almost fell ill when he sat down. Don't say that he shudders on a conditioned reflex when he sees Lin Jing, even when he hears Lin Jing's name, he feels a little uncomfortable. good.Of course, this is something for later, so I don't need to mention it for now.

What needs to be mentioned right now is Tu Xiaosan. Tu Xiaosan is standing on the dilapidated city wall of Sanjie County, frowning and looking at the Japanese bandits who have temporarily retreated outside the city. Although the Japanese bandits have retreated, they have not retreated far and are still stationed in the county. Not far away.Shi Qianhu took a pancake and said, "General, let's eat some first."

Tu Xiaosan waved his hand, "I'm not hungry yet."

Shi Qianhu said, "You haven't eaten all day, you must eat something to last until the reinforcements come over."

Tu Xiaosan knew that if he didn't eat or drink, he might worry the people below, but he really wasn't talking politely, he was really not hungry, he didn't feel hungry at all.Tu Xiaosan took the cake with Yu Wen in Shi Qianhu's hand, took a bite, but knew in his heart that the reinforcements might not come.If Lin Jing knew that he encountered the Japanese bandits here, there was no reason not to send reinforcements. It has been six days and there is no sign of reinforcements. It can only explain one thing, that is, or the scout he sent back to deliver the letter. Failed to return to Quanzhou City, or Quanzhou City also encountered war, Lin Jing sent no troops.Or, both, have met.

Tu Xiaosan is not an overly optimistic person, his judgment has always been accurate.If this city is not a small county with crumbling walls under the rule of Quanzhou Prefecture, but Haiyan City, with the strength in his hands, Tu Xiaosan can at least be sure to defend it for a month.But this small city is really too dilapidated. If the city wall collapses, it will be blocked by a human wall.Only in this way can they last until the sixth day under the attack of tens of thousands of Japanese bandits.

As for how long he can last in the end, Tu Xiaosan himself doesn't know.

After this, it will be another day.

The most difficult thing is not to defend the city every day and fight hard. The most difficult thing is that those Japanese bandits will search the people from the nearby villages and villages, no matter men, women or children, behead all the heads outside the city, and then pile up these heads into A mountain of human heads.

Shi Qianhu hated to lead people out immediately, but it was Tu Xiaosan who stopped him, and Tu Xiaosan said, "Don't forget, there are at least [-] people in this city. Once our place falls, these [-] people That’s what happened.”

On the seventh day, County Magistrate Xu, who had been preparing logistics supplies for the soldiers in the city, quietly found Tu Xiaosan, and privately handed a letter to Tu Xiaosan. The ugly words are not bad. I am a local parent official. Once the city is broken, I will die in the city. This is a letter from me to my family. The general is not an official in my city. If possible, please break through the siege and deliver this letter for me. go back home."

This county magistrate is not very old, only about [-] years old, and he is also born with gentleness, just the kind of normal scholar.Tu Xiaosan received the letter from County Magistrate Xu, and his eyes seemed to see through the compassion and kindness in County Magistrate Xu's heart. Tu Xiaosan's eyes were calm, without any hesitation, and he said in a deep voice, "We haven't reached that point yet."

County magistrate Xu seemed to be affected by Tu Xiaosan's composure, and smiled slightly, "I'm just in case. Actually, I made a divination today, and it will be auspicious."

Tu Xiaosan nodded, "This hexagram is definitely accurate."

County magistrate Xu nodded, "I think so too." He is a local official, and must live and die with the local people, but this is not the case for this general.County magistrate Xu understood that if Tu Xiaosan led people to break out of the siege when the Japanese bandits first arrived, they might not be able to return to Quanzhou City.But Tu Xiaosan didn't do that, Tu Xiaosan stayed and helped them resist the Japanese bandits.It has been seven days and there has been no reinforcements.The county magistrate Xu could die in the city by himself, but he didn't want to bring Tu Xiaosan with him.

The two just had a brief conversation, and the magistrate Xu went down to continue to arrange the affairs of the county. As for Tu Xiaosan, he now lives and boards on the city wall in case of war.Sometimes, Tu Xiaosan would look at the starry sky. In fact, this magistrate of Xu County really thought too much. Tu Xiaosan would try his best to defend the city, but when the city couldn't be defended no matter what, he wouldn't stick to it .In his life, there are still many people who make him think about it. He will not give his life for this city, but he still has people who, no matter what, risk their lives and go back to meet each other.

It's just that when you can hold on, you still have to hold on.

On the eighth day, Shi Qianhu had the heart to persuade his disciple Xiaosan to lead his troops to break out of the encirclement.It's not that they didn't dedicate themselves to this city. In just eight days, they lost thousands of brothers. If they continue to fight, they may really be unable to leave.

Just as Shi Qianhu was hesitating how to speak, this dilapidated small town finally waited for reinforcements.

When he saw a black line appearing in the sky from a distance, Tu Xiaosan's heart sank, thinking that another Japanese bandit was coming.He immediately ordered Shi Qianhu to prepare for a new round of defense of the city.Shi Qianhu, Shi Shilang, also came from a gentry family in Yancheng. Because he worshiped his apprentice Xiaosan at first, he suffered from cow disease and wanted to join the army to suppress bandits.At this time, Shi Qianhu's half-body armor was stained with blood, and he didn't have the prestige of a five-rank Qianhu, but he didn't fear or shrink back, he just turned around immediately and conveyed the general's order.

It wasn't until the army gradually approached the front that Tu Xiaosan realized, this is wrong, this is the army of the imperial court.Taking a closer look, on the big flag waving in the wind, there is a big Lin character written in thick black ink. The Lin character is written with teeth and claws, extremely majestic.The ecstasy in Tu Xiaosan's heart at that time was insignificant, and the whole city was boiling.

Although the reinforcements had arrived, the battle to follow was still extremely hard.

The Japanese bandits have a considerable advantage in numbers, but Tu Xiaosan is a veteran in the battlefield after all, and his experience is far from that of Yan, Ma, and Shi.Tu Xiaosan directly asked the flag bearer to tell Yanma and Yanma how to deploy their troops. After all, during the battle with the Japanese bandits in the past few days, Tu Xiaosan also figured out this group of people. They are not from the same team, although there are many people , but it is a combination of several teams.Such a combination is also called mob.They didn't show their superiority in the battle, but once they turned into a disadvantage, internal strife would inevitably arise.Tu Xiaosan was not in a hurry to kill this group of people at once, but within two days, a large group of Japanese bandits showed signs of breaking up.

The point is, no one is willing to be cannon fodder to resist the direction of Tu Xiaosan's sword.You must know that Tu Xiaosan's military training is not just another general's false story, but also all kinds of dirty things in the army.Tu Xiaosan's troop training is real troop training, as long as the pawns are trained seriously, the other configurations are the best in the example.Take the army rations as an example, Tu Xiaosan's army rations are obviously much higher than those of the governor's yamen. Even if the soldiers trained in this way only account for [-]% of the veterans, the recruits are not without the strength to fight.

At the same time, the battlefield played a great role.

On the third day, Lin Jing couldn't help worrying that when someone came to detect the war, it was just in time for Tu Xiaosan to finish.The county magistrate Xu didn't know what to say, the joy of escaping from the dead, the joy of exterminating the Japanese pirates, and the tiredness, fatigue, and fear of these days rolled into his heart one by one at this moment, making the county magistrate shed tears Tears rolled down my face.The rest of the soldiers, however, were not at all disturbed. After the battle, the seriously injured were taken to the side to be resettled, and those who were healthy began to pack up their swords and armor, and then returned to the team.

Until Tu Xiaosan led his troops back to Quanzhou City, Shi Shiran, the soldiers and horses from Minzhou, arrived.

Rao Governor Kong has always had a good temper with the outside world, and he didn't have a good face to General Minzhou. He said directly, "The crisis in Quanzhou has been resolved, so I don't bother you." He directly drove him out of Quanzhou City.

At this moment, Tu Xiaosan, who had just returned to the General's Mansion not long ago, was sleeping and the ground shook, snoring like thunder.Lin Jing sat on a rocking chair covered with a wolf fur mattress, with a fox fur blanket on his lap, basking in the sun in the yard while listening to Shi Silang talking about the battle in the county. Shi Silang said, "General You really are a very benevolent person. I don’t know that the city wall of the Three Realms County is broken. If it is a good city, how can it be impossible to defend it for more than half a month? Later, I thought, if the county is really unable to defend, it is better to let the general lead people to break through. Will defend such a small town to the death.”

Lin Jing didn't think that Tu Xiaosan would sacrifice his life for a small town, but he also knew that Tu Xiaosan would guard until the last moment.Lin Jing smiled, "So, this is our general."

Shi Shiro couldn't help but smile too.

Lin Jing heard about Tu Xiaosan's defense of the city from Shi Shilang, and of course, later told about it from County Magistrate Xu who was reporting to Quanzhou City.According to what everyone said, the image of Tu Xiaosan is not to mention how heroic and brave he is, saving the people from fire and water.Waiting for Xiaosan to recover his spirit, he also heard many legends about Lin Jing, the most widely spread one is that Lin Jing skinned people alive.As a result, Lin Jing got another nickname, known as Yan Wang Li.

Tu Xiaosan was very annoyed when he first heard this nickname, and said, "Anyone who wants to say that again will have their tongue cut out."

Lin Jing didn't care, "Fangmin's mouth is better than Fangchuan's. It's alright, whoever wants to talk can talk, and I'm not afraid to talk."

Tu Xiaosan was very upset about Lin Jing. At that time, if Lin Jing didn't use torture, how could he quickly ask for details.If you can't ask about detailed work, how can you make a plan to defeat the Japanese bandits.If Lin Jing hadn't quickly ended the battle in Quanzhou City, how could he have spared his hands to help him? Without Lin Jing's help, Tu Xiaosan would have escaped with his life, and his men and horses would have suffered greatly, not to mention the current situation. Victory.

However, what Tu Xiaosan didn't expect was that Lin Jing's nickname was still a trivial matter, and the next thing about Lin Jing's military exploits made Tu Xiaosan even more furious!
