In just five days, Niu Geng really knew what it means to have corpses strewn all over the fields and blood flowing like rivers.

Five days ago, he came out of the poplar grove, and after settling Xue Zhong, he went straight to the Weibei county government office. Yes, even Brother Zhang Xuan wants to call him the leader.Niu Geng knew that this Wang Er was the one who rose up in the first place.

However, Wang Er's appearance at this time is not a good thing.

In the past few months, Wang Er and his party have been active in Baishui County, where they killed corrupt officials, opened granaries, and helped the poor. There, it was regarded as the old nest of the rebel army. Now, the leader abandoned his old nest and came here. Could it be... .

As predicted by Niu Geng, the rebel army was surrounded and suppressed by the imperial court's Shaanxi garrison. In addition, they were also pursued by the Shanxi government soldiers who wanted to grab credit. This massive uprising has continued to this day , and only the Weibei area is left.

But now, this place is almost lost.

"Brother!" Niu Geng walked all the way to the depths of the county government office. During this journey, he already knew a lot about the current situation in the army. He just walked into the county government hall and saw Zhang Xuan standing in front of the table. A man with thick eyebrows, high nose and imposing manner is sitting behind the table.

"Brother Niu Geng! You are back! Leader, this is the brother I rescued in the countryside! He has made great contributions to our rebel army along the way!"

"En." Wang Er nodded slightly, looked Niu Geng up and down, but couldn't see any change in his face.

"Is Xue's family dealing with it properly?"

"Yes, it's settled. I have heard a lot of things all the way to the city. If I knew the current situation in the army, I should have come back early!"

"It's useless for the deputy general to come back earlier. If you come back early to delay the affairs of your landlord and young master, you will be more worried than the deputy general." A strange voice came from behind, and Niu Geng turned his head. Sure enough, it was Qi Sheng's smiling face.

"Hmph, I value righteousness, and the young master of the Xue family has kindness to me, and I will repay him by protecting him well. Could it be that you are a human being, and you can't even do this basic truth?" Niu Geng replied.

"I can't compare to the lieutenant general. I have been living in the countryside since I was a child. How can I get to know so many gentry and rich people like a lieutenant general?" Afterwards, Wang Er twitched his brows slightly.

"At this moment, do you still have the mind to bicker here?!" Sure enough, behind the table, Wang Er yelled: "Now, we are surrounded by soldiers from the Shanxi government and the garrison from northern Shaanxi. Why don't you think about it when you have time?" How to deal with it!"

"Return to the leader." Qi Sheng has always been a discerning person: "I think that our rebel army has won the hearts of the people, the supplies in Weibei City are abundant, and the city walls are indestructible. Let the lackeys face each other head-on, kill their spirit, so strengthen the momentum of my rebel army!"

"Boss, I disguised myself all the way and came from Sanyuan County along the official road. I saw many officers and soldiers of the Shaanxi garrison along the way. Their weapons and supplies are very abundant. I thought that guarding Weibei at this time and fighting them to death is not a big deal. It is a good strategy. We can take advantage of the fact that the two forces are not encircled, divide the elite troops into small groups and move them out of the city, and hide in the countryside outside the city for a while to cultivate and regenerate. When the court relaxes, Concentrate these troops again, and go straight to the city of Xi'an, to deal a fatal blow to the imperial court!"

"The lieutenant general wants us to hide like turtles!"

"Don't take it out of context and confuse the public. I believe the leader will understand what I mean!"

"You don't want to talk anymore." Wang Er behind the table supported his forehead. Although his voice was not loud, it was extremely intimidating: "You all step back first, let me discuss with Zhang Xuan."

"Yes!" Niu Geng and Qi Sheng withdrew, leaving only Zhang Xuan and Wang Er in the county government hall.

"Who is the young master of the Xue family that Qi Sheng is talking about?" Wang Er asked.

"Back to the leader, that's my sworn brother in the Xi'an Mansion. Coincidentally, he was also the young master of the master that Niu Geng served when he was a long-time worker."

"According to what he said, it seems that he has a different opinion of the young master of the Xue family?"

"The young master of the Xue family is kind to him, and Niu Geng naturally treats him differently from others."

"Hmph, is there any favor to him? One is a landlord and the other is a long-term worker. Those hypocritical favors are nothing more than some leftovers and indifference given to him by the master's family. Our people have illusions, this lieutenant named Niu Geng is really naive."

After Zhang Xuan heard this, his back felt cold, and he hurriedly said: "Niu Geng is a man who has always been upright. If others treat him better, he can return ten points to others. When I rescued him back then, I promised him a heavy position." , I also fancy his temperament."

"Although you have a good temperament, if you are used by someone with evil intentions, for us, I'm afraid it will really affect the whole body."

"What the leader taught is that the subordinates have been taught." Zhang Xuan clasped his hands and lowered his head.

"There is no need to reuse this burdock in the future. If he is not in my rebel army, it will be of no use to us to reuse him."

"Yes……."

A few days later, the army sent by the Shaanxi garrison surrounded the direction of the main gate of Weibei City, and the army of Shanxi Prefecture also surrounded the direction of the back gate of Weibei City. For a while, this place in the north was so impenetrable that it was difficult for even a fly to fly in and out.The rebel army trapped in the city lost the best opportunity to escape, and there was no better way out than to defend.

However, what they didn't expect was that the imperial court was determined to destroy all of them this time.

On the city wall, when Niu Geng saw the black cannon barrel from a distance, he already knew that the rebels in this city might not survive.

The court officials, who were powerless in the face of the aliens in the northeast and the Japanese pirates in the southeast, really used the cannon, a powerful weapon to destroy the city, when dealing with the poor people in the court.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, Niu Geng only felt that the city wall, which should have been solid as a rock, swayed on the ground for a few moments. For a moment, the defenders on the city wall were spinning and dizzy.

Niu Geng firmly grasped a corner of the city wall, stood up with great effort, and looked down, only to see bursts of gunpowder smoke emanating from the black barrel mouth, and the strong smell of sulfur in the air.

The solid city gate of Weibei has now been blasted with a big gap.

"They don't care about the lives of ordinary people at all!" Niu Geng yelled fiercely. Seeing that the soldiers around the barrel were about to fill the gun barrel with ammunition, he thought that there should be no further delay, and then hurriedly walked under the city wall. go.

"Brother! Go, go! Weibei can't hold it anymore, and the **** Shaanxi garrison has fired all his mother's cannons!" Niu Geng didn't care about anything at this time, and rushed all the way to the county office Go to the lobby of the county government.

"What?!" After the ground shook just now, Wang Er and Zhang Xuan had sensed that the way was wrong, but they killed them, but they didn't expect that the garrison could use the cannon barrel.

"Go! Go! At most one more time, this city gate will have to be broken. Their military strength is much stronger than ours! If we continue to defend this Weibei city, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. Hurry up and go as far as you can. several!"

"Where are we going! There are wolves in front and tigers in the back, where are we going! God wants to forget me, Wang Er!" Wang Er looked up to the sky and screamed, clenched his fists with both hands, and hammered the table under him fiercely. .

"Break in!" Zhang Xuan who was standing on the side suddenly said: "Chief, I still have an elite army of more than a hundred people under me. Right now, the troops on the southwest side of Weibei City are the weakest. There is a damaged gap in the city wall there. With this team under my command, I should break through!"

"No, how can I abandon you and leave alone, what about the brothers in this city!"

"Boss! Now is not the time to worry about these things. You listen to me and break out with your elite brothers. How many can go? We still have some scattered in the villages in the south of Weibei." Brother, they recognize your name, know your deeds, and they will definitely be willing to revolt with you when they see you. If you don’t escape today, then our uprising will really be over!"

Before Zhang Xuan finished speaking, there was another loud noise, followed by a wave of strong ground shaking.The shaking stopped with great difficulty, only to hear the soldiers shouting urgently from outside the door: "Boss! The gate of Weibei City is broken!"

"Go! Go! If you don't go, it will be too late!" Zhang Xuan almost dragged Wang Er away, and Niu Geng followed quickly. A group of more than a hundred people rode fast horses and carried weapons to Wei Run in the north-southwest direction.

The gate of Weibei City has been broken, and all imperial soldiers and horses from all walks of life stepping into Weibei City will feel as if they have entered the land of no one. The uprising army, which is so powerful among the people, has no backup and no relief. Facing such a regular army of the imperial court , Compete with each other.The garrison did not show any mercy when they slaughtered the city, but when they saw people in the uniform of the rebel army, whether they surrendered or rebelled, they all raised their swords and fell without any hesitation.

All of a sudden, in Weibei City, corpses were scattered all over the field, and blood flowed into rivers.

Besides, Niu Geng and his party, with more than a hundred people, barely managed to break through from the southwest of Weibei, but they also suffered heavy losses, and the remaining living people were no more than twenty people.

More than a dozen of the more than twenty people escorted Wang Er to the countryside, leaving only Zhang Xuan and Niu Geng with stab wounds on their bodies.

There were several knife wounds on Niu Geng's arms and thighs. Although the blood splattered everywhere, it was scary but did not hurt the vitals. He is already taking in less air and exhaling more.

"Big brother! Big brother!" Niu Geng and the two managed to get rid of the pursuers and their lives. He dragged Zhang Xuan to hide in a cave, but due to the lack of medicine and medicine, Niu Geng didn't even know how to bandage him.

"Brother, I... I'm afraid I can't do it..."

"Brother, don't talk nonsense, just wait, I'll take you to the miracle doctor, the one who saved Qing'er, hold on, I'll take you right away!"

"Don't worry about it, brother." Zhang Xuan was as angry as silk, but his blood-stained hands were tightly grasping the burdock: "I can't worry about Caixing, you... you help me, take care of her... for the rest of my life .”

"Brother, what are you talking about!" Tears covered Niu Geng's eyes, and even Zhang Xuan in his field of vision could hardly be seen clearly.

"She is next to Baishui County, a place called Sibao Township, where there is a family named Qian, who is...my distant aunt... I put Caixing there to take care of her... Caixing is pregnant Five or six months..., you find her, tell her, raise the child well..., tell the child..., his father is not a bandit..., not a rebellious party..., he is a hero who stands up to heaven and earth ..." After speaking in this tone, Zhang Xuan seemed to have fulfilled his wish, his head sank, and his hands drooped by his sides weakly.

In the cave, Niu Geng howled endlessly, and outside the cave, dark clouds surged in the sky.
