The Founding of the Red Chamber

Compared to people like Jinling, Mu Rong was very knowledgeable about the Japanese bandits.Without him, from Yancheng to Quanzhou, the anti-Japanese war that Murong went through was not the only one.However, I don't know if Mu Rong is lucky or not.Previously in Yancheng, the people who came were nothing more than little Japanese bandits.Even in Quanzhou, although the Japanese bandits had grown in scale, the Japanese bandits were attacked by several groups of Japanese bandits in partnership, and they were not united.

Today, Murong also doesn't believe that these Japanese bandits come from one family.

However, these Japanese bandits have obviously undergone rigorous training. They are neat in team, wearing soft armor, holding long knives, and have special archers and banners.That is to say, the imperial court still calls them bandits. In fact, to be fair, these Japanese bandits are no longer trained in the imperial court's serious army.

To be honest, it is only a hundred times stronger than the current Huaiyang Army.

Even Mu Rong, who was used to seeing Japanese bandits, couldn't help but tremble, not to mention anyone else.Lieutenant General Fu's legs were trembling, and Murong Li ordered the flag bearer to unfurl the Xionghu Banner, ordering the whole army to defend the city to the death.Afterwards, Murong asked Vice General Fu, "Are you afraid?"

Fu Fu added up all the shame in his life, but he didn't spend more than a few days by Murong's side, because he was about to pee in fright, and Mu Rong still looked unmoved.Vice General Fu asked, "Are you afraid, sir?"

"I want to live and die with this city, so I'm not afraid." Murong said lightly.Her words couldn't be more plain, but Fu Fu knew that Mu Rong's words were not lying, Fu Fu gritted his teeth, "The last general will live and die with Jinling!" After finishing speaking, he ran down to direct the battle.

Needless to mention the hardships of the war, the Japanese bandits came well prepared. Although they did not have large siege objects such as catapults, they prepared a lot of light weapons such as ladders. The sabers of the bandits are longer than those of the imperial court, and their bows and arrows can shoot farther than those of the imperial court. Also, these Japanese bandits are by no means scattered bandits. Yong, relying on the fortification of Jinling City, the hard work of this battle is also beyond everyone's expectations.

Even Governor Zheng, who is in charge of logistics and supply matters, is so busy that he doesn't even have time to drink saliva.After struggling for ten days, the troops were once again insufficient. Governor Zheng said, "Let's take out the whole city."

"It's not that far yet!" Murong's cold side face became more serious in the night and firelight, she said to Governor Zheng, "Give those bastards to the city wall!"

Governor Zheng was still confused, "Which one are you talking about?"

"Idiots, those who came to drink tea that day!" Murong's eyes spit fire, hating Governor Zheng for being so stupid that he didn't understand this!Among the common people, there are a few who can defend the city, even if they are smokers, most of them come to die.These big families and big merchants are different, they have a lot of guards in their hands, and in this troubled world, even the healthy servants at home will also be trained on weekdays.Governor Zheng didn't care about being sprayed in the face by Murong, so he hurried to do it.The last time I was able to sit down and have a cup of tea, this time, Murong invited them all to go directly to the city wall. Regarding the fierceness of the Japanese bandits, these people have heard their names for a long time but have not seen their faces. This time, they can all see clearly up.Murong said directly, "Send all your guards, young and strong servants, and healthy servants to guard the city immediately. Also, take out all the weapons and weapons in your homes, otherwise, you can leave the city behind! "

As expected of Mu Qiuting's younger sister, Mu Rong is a bit of a gangster. This time, Mu Rong stopped being reasonable and just played with her life.Moreover, she wasn't just playing around with her life, there was an unbelievers who wanted to yell nonsense, it was a cold arrow that came over unexpectedly, Murong grabbed his shoulder and passed it out, the arrow hit this person with a shrill howling sound On the shoulders, Mu Rong's eyes were bloodshot, and as the man screamed, she stretched out her hand to push him away, wiped the blood on the man's wound indifferently, and said coldly, "You guys how about?"

At the moment when everyone asks this question, I feel chills in my heart, I'm afraid I won't respond to this female King of Hades, I'm afraid they will be the next to be handed out to snatch the arrows.

Is there anyone in the world who is not afraid of death?

There must be some, but these people are not included.

Murong gathered another 8000 troops.

When the defending equipment such as beating tools, grasping guns, crutches, flying hooks, maces, iron fire beds, etc. are used up, the whole city will collect them, regardless of wood, stones, grease, asphalt, sulfur, turpentine, etc. Each family even moved their own drum-holding stones, and even boiled dung water, which were used by Murong to defend the city.

No matter how well-trained the Japanese bandits were, they looked down on the Huaiyang army, and before the battle of defending the city presided over by Murong, they couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

When the Japanese bandits were anxious, the Huaiyang Army's morale became stronger and stronger. In the beginning of the war, these people were indeed frightened by the name of the Japanese bandits, but as the battle progressed, Mu Rong stood firm every day, Leading people to patrol around and preside over the battle, if you say that everyone was still scared and afraid of the Japanese bandits at the beginning, but now that the battles have been fought these days, everyone has discovered that even if the Japanese bandits are more difficult to deal with, a successful battle is definitely better than a siege battle Fighting, confidence, just like that was beaten out.

In fact, Mu Rong is also studying. Although she has several years of experience in training soldiers and fought with Tu Xiaosan, she has not been systematically trained.However, fighting a war is a matter that requires experience.At this time, it also shows that even though the Huaiyang Army is incompetent, the imperial court, as the body with the greatest interests in ruling the Central Plains, still has its extraordinary features.

When Mu Rong received a report from Vice General Fu, saying that the Japanese bandits were digging the tunnel, Murong frowned, "Where did they dig it?"

Vice General Fu took out a map and pointed out the direction for Murong. Murong didn't know how Vice General Fu was sure that there were Japanese bandits digging the tunnel. At this time, it was too late to ask why, so Murong said directly, "The Japanese bandits came in?"

"Not yet. It's just that there has been no war in Jinling for a long time. The windmill used to deal with these grounds was broken. Otherwise, lime and poisonous powder could be blown in to kill the Japanese bandits." Deputy General Fu said.

Murong immediately said, "Stupid! You can't do anything without a windmill. Prepare a cowhide bag to blow the wind, and then prepare firewood. The world is full of evil spirits, and there is no fire."

Deputy General Fu slapped his forehead, feeling that he was really not very smart, so he quickly gave orders.

Although Mu Rong is a woman, she has shown a determination that is not inferior to that of a man.She kept guard until the No. 20th, but still did not see half of the reinforcements. It stands to reason that the Japanese bandits besieged Jinling City, so the siege of Suzhou, Yangzhou, Jiangning and other places was naturally resolved, and Zhifu City was besieged. The reason for reinforcements.As a result, there was no one left.

On the 30th day, there were [-] Japanese bandits newly added.

Even Governor Zheng didn't expect the Japanese bandits to have such fighting power.

Governor Zheng touched the fold in his arms, his eyes were stunned, and he couldn't say a word.Even the generals and sergeants guarding the city felt chills in the face of the Japanese bandit's increase in troops.Murong's eyes became more serious, and she said to Governor Zheng, "Prepare to smoke. All men in the city who are over 16 years old and under 40 years old should go to the city wall. If you have weapons at home, you should bring them yourself. If you don't have them, they will be issued by the army. The city resists the Japanese!"

Mu Rongzheng drew out his saber, and the point of the blade was the army of Japanese bandits. Murong said loudly to everyone, "Are you afraid? I am not afraid of a woman, are you still men? If you are still men, you can do whatever you want Together, I will protect Jinling!"

Deputy General Fu had one arm dangling, and couldn't help feeling agitated today, thinking that he was also an imposing man of seven feet, and couldn't help shouting, "Guard Jinling!"

"Guard Jinling!"

"Guard Jinling! Guard Jinling! Guard Jinling!"

Shouts sounded one after another, and the gloom in the entire Jinling City was cleared. Even though the Japanese bandits were known to be brave, this is our city.

By the 40th day, the outer city was already in danger, and all the people in the outer city moved into the inner city. Afterwards, the Jinling army also moved into the inner city.On the fifth day of No.40, Mu Rong suddenly woke up amidst the sounds of fighting. Ever since the Japanese bandits invaded, Mu Rong lived and ate at the city wall.Hearing this sound, Murong suddenly jumped up from a simple bed, picked up the saber by the bed and went out, asking the guards, "Are Japanese bandits attacking the city again?"

The guards have been guarding the gate for Murong, and he doesn't know it!Follow Murong quickly to the city wall!

Murong had only walked about ten steps when he saw Vice General Fu approaching happily, and said with a happy face, "General, the reinforcements have arrived!"

Murong didn't look happy either, he glanced at the night and said, "Follow me and have a look."

Murong could only see a huge flag under the reflection of the night and the flames of war. Although it was extremely far away, he couldn't see what words were on the flag.The guard said happily, "Could it be that General Lin has arrived!"

Mu Rong saw that many people were killed together with the Japanese bandits, about thousands of people.When those people break through the siege of the Japanese bandits, they can be seen as they approach. These people are wearing imperial uniforms, and the huge banner can be clearly seen now. There is a big letter "Lin" written in ink on it. Character!

Deputy General Fu was finally overjoyed, and said excitedly, "General! It's General Lin's reinforcements who have arrived! Here, here, let's open the city gate and welcome General Lin!"

At this moment, Governor Zheng also ran to the city wall with ecstasy on his face, and said loudly, "I heard that General Lin's reinforcements have arrived, but is it true?"

Murong said, "There is no rush."

"Why don't you rush, the general will be here soon, and those Japanese bandits outside, why don't you lead your troops out of the city to meet the general." Governor Zheng said, and looked down the city again, and saw a black armored general At the beginning, an iron gun overturned a Japanese bandit, led the army to break through the Japanese bandit siege, and came straight to the city gate. Governor Zheng immediately said, "Quick! Open the city gate! Welcome the general!"

A yamen servant under Governor Zheng immediately responded and was about to run to deliver the order, but Murong shouted, "Stop!"

Vice General Fu looked at Murong, and Murong said to Governor Zheng, "I can't be sure at the moment, the next one is General Lin, although the armor and clothing are the same as those of the imperial army, who has seen General Lin's face! It's a Japanese bandit pretending to trick you into opening the city gate, what do you want?"

Governor Zheng's face was a bit ugly, mainly because he was angry that Murong didn't save him face, Governor Zheng said, "If it's really General Lin, if I don't come out of the city to meet him, wouldn't General Lin be the one to slaughter Japanese bandits!"

Murong said, "I have my own way to make sure." He ordered the flag bearer to play several sets of semaphores, and then faced each other with semaphores.

Although Governor Zheng is ignorant of military affairs, he is a master of knowledge after all, and these days he is also anxious about the war, and he also has some understanding of semaphore.He was overjoyed at first glance, and said with a smile, "Isn't that the general, otherwise, how would you understand our semaphore?"

Mu Rong's face was expressionless, he took the flag from the flag bearer's hand, and played another set of flags, his head froze as expected.Murong sneered, "It's really not General Lin!" He ordered the archers and stone throwers to prepare to attack immediately if anyone approached the city wall.

Those people with fake hats from the imperial court were also obedient. When they saw that the semaphore did not match, they immediately galloped away and did not dare to approach.

All the people in the city, from Governor Zheng to Vice General Fu, were all very lucky.

In the sky, Jinling City was really waiting for reinforcements, but it wasn't just General Lin who came. On the big banner with a black background, one was Lin and the other was Zhang.Governor Zheng was shocked, "It's soldiers from Zhejiang and Fujian!"

After Mu Rong passed the semaphore, Fang said softly, "It's finally here."

The war in Huaiyang lasted for more than two months. The largest anti-Japanese war in the south of the Yangtze River, the joint forces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian wiped out the Japanese bandits under the city of Jinling. Among them, the Japanese bandits lost more than [-] people and captured nearly [-] people alive. .The soldiers and horses of the imperial court also suffered [-] casualties. This great victory also marked that the Japanese invasion in the south of the Yangtze River has officially entered the final stage, and on the other hand, another war in the south of the Yangtze River has officially kicked off.
