Chapter 198: Blitz (Part 1)
Liu Chenglin knew that his strength was limited and could not resist Zhu Shou's shy and angry attack this time. Five thousand armored soldiers and 30,000 palace soldiers were almost everything Zhu Shou, the governor of Henghai Jiedu, could now take out, and this shows the other party's determination to kill him.
But not being able to defend does not mean that the war will fail. Liu Chenglin, who has been rolling on the battlefield for many years, decided to attack instead of defense.
He only brought one thousand of his most confidant soldiers and left Jingzhou City. Among these thousand people, there were both old troops who had been following him earlier and new people who were promoted from the government soldiers this time. He left all the remaining thousands of soldiers and thousands of government soldiers to Sun Zhi, and he would defend Jingzhou City.
When Zhu Shou's army had just stepped out of Cangzhou City, Liu Chenglin's thousand armored soldiers had already appeared under his leadership, like a divine weapon descending from the sky, and suddenly appeared in Suning County in Cangzhou.
Yan Chunsheng, the magistrate of Suning County, was really stunned and at a loss when facing Liu Chenglin who was suddenly attacking. He was still following Zhu Shou's orders and trying hard to collect food and grass for Zhu Shou's army to arrive.
Zhu Shou is strong and Liu Chenglin is weak. Who can see that now Liu Chenglin should not seize every time in Jingzhou to strengthen the city wall and prepare equipment to guard Jingzhou City?
He could not imagine that under such a situation, Liu Chenglin turned his back and took the initiative to attack Cangzhou.
The sun was scorching, and Yan Chunsheng, the magistrate of Suning County, was sweating profusely. A small part was hot, and the other half was scared out of the ground. Who knew the reputation of Liu Chenglin as a powerful general in the sea?
Although the two battles were fought, Yan Chunsheng still had to work hard to keep himself upright. Although his voice trembled, he still ordered the defenders to prepare to defend the city one after another. Wu Kejin, the county magistrate in charge of the Suning military, had the same face as earth.
Liu Chenglin looked at the closed city gate and the busy soldiers running above the city, sneered, carried his red cherry gun and rode forward, dozens of war horses ran from behind the military formation, rolling up smoke and dust, and dragging bundles of thick bamboo behind the horse's butt.
With a thud, the bamboo was scattered before the military formation. Liu Chenglin picked up a gun, and he picked up a bamboo and held it in his hand. Behind him, more than a hundred elite soldiers stepped forward and picked up one.
"My boys, live forward, retreat and die, take down Suning, and receive a lot of rewards!" After Liu Chenglin shouted, he took the lead and rushed to the Suning City ahead.
Behind him, more than a hundred elites roared and chased after him. Further behind, Liu Changfeng led the main force to approach.
"Shoot, shoot arrow!" Wu Kejin roared in the city, but his eyes kept following the tall figure riding a white horse.
The sparse feather arrows shot towards the siege troops, but Liu Chenglin didn't bother to pay attention to it, but he lowered his head and ran wildly. When he approached Suning City, he suddenly stood up from the war horse. The long bamboo was lifted up by him, and his thick tail suddenly poked to the ground. The huge force of the war horse forward made the bamboo suddenly bend down. Liu Chenglin was bounced up and flew high into the sky.
On and down the city, everyone looked at the general who flew into the sky.
This leap of all strength made Liu Chenglin's figure more than one meter taller than the Suning City Wall. He lost bamboo in the air and raised a red cherry spear, like a divine weapon falling from the sky, with red cherry blossoms falling down.
Where he fell, the soldiers who were supposed to hold up their spears to block it, actually exclaimed and scattered.
Liu Chenglin landed steadily on the top of the city.
At this moment, hundreds of bamboos were built on the city wall. Hundreds of elite soldiers held horizontal swords and crawled towards the top of the city with their hands and feet. The place where they climbed the city wall was right behind Liu Chenglin standing.
"Kill him, kill him!" Wu Kejin mustered up the courage, held a shield in one hand and waved his knife in the other, and rushed over with a hundred men. At this time, he knew very well that if he didn't kill Liu Chenglin quickly, things would be bad.
Liu Chenglin did not retreat but advanced, holding a red cherry gun in his hand. With a loud shout, he actually came straight towards Wu Kejin. It was like a tiger going down the mountain, picking, poking, sucking, and wiping. A red cherry gun was in Liu Chenglin's hands, with all kinds of fantasies, the one who welcomed him was dead, and the one who was in charge died immediately.
The soldiers in front of Wu Kejin only barely resisted for several rounds and then spread out to both sides in fear, exposing Wu Kejin directly in front of Liu Chenglin.
Raising a shield and waving a knife, Wu Kejin had no way to retreat, so he could only strive to meet him.
With a muffled sound, the large shield wrapped in iron in his hand was broken by the Red Cherry Spear. The remnant force of the spear was not weakened and it was inserted into Wu Kejin's chest. Amid Liu Chenglin's violent shout, Wu Kejin was raised high by the spear and raised it in the air, but he was still not dead for a while. The long sound was tragic, and the world was tragic.
Liu Chenglin waved his arm suddenly, and Wu Kejin was thrown out of his red cherry gun. Blood fell from the sky and even crossed several feet and fell into the city.
Blood fell on the face, and the screams were still in my ears.
The soldiers on the city exclaimed, turned around and ran away.
Even the county magistrate Yan Chunsheng, who had been carrying a knife before, turned around and the wind was rising under his feet, and he instantly ran away from the top of the city. At this time, a hundred elite soldiers also climbed up to the top of the city. When they stood above the top of the city, they looked around and could see at most some fleeing soldiers, but how could they find the enemy?
The gate of Suning City is open.
From Liu Chenglin's arrival at the city of Suning and the breaking city of Suning, it was only a cup of tea that had been gathered together.
The main force led by Liu Changfeng looked up at Liu Chenglin holding a red cherry gun and standing proudly above the city, roaring with his head, and staring in front of him.
It is easier to win with such a general.
Liu Chenglin's old subordinates were probably used to such scenes, and they were not too surprised, but some brave men who had just been promoted from the government soldiers were really convinced at this moment. In an instant, Liu Chenglin's image was raised by countless levels in their hearts.
Liu Chenglin came suddenly, and the Suning City was broken too quickly. The residents in the city had just heard the warning bell. Before they could come back to their senses, the enemy had already entered the city. Those who reacted quickly closed their doors and closed their doors. Those who reacted slowly were stunned and watched teams of soldiers running past the streets with their shields and swords.
"Changfeng, open the treasury of Suning, search the houses of the Suning County Magistrate, County Magistrate and other officials, search for gold and silver, rewarded our soldiers, and all the copper coins were gathered to publicly announce that in the city of Suning, anyone who surrendered to me, Liu Chenglin, who was willing to work with me with a knife, would each give the An family fee of fifty cents. Even the previous military soldiers, I would like to ask." Liu Chenglin stood at the gate of the county government and ordered.
"Yes!" Liu Changfeng walked away quickly.
As Liu Chenglin's order spread throughout the city, the city of Suning suddenly caused a sensation. Fifty stakes, for the people of Henghai, who have always been poor, it is really not a small amount, or even ten stakes, which is enough to make people sell their lives.
When the sun set on the horizon, Liu Changfeng actually recruited more than a thousand men in Suning City, including many of them, including the soldiers who had been preparing to resist Liu Chenglin on the top of the city.
Now, for the sake of fifty taels, they turned against Liu Chenglin's subordinates without any psychological burden.
The steaming white steamed buns in the basket were carried out, and the iron pot and the fragrant pork, mutton, chicken were placed on the ground. The soldiers were happily eating this sumptuous dinner. Even with the wine, each soldier was given a bowl of wine.
Like everyone else, Liu Chenglin held steamed buns in one hand, and the meat soup bowl in the other hand, and the steamed buns in one bite of soup. However, no one dared to approach the place where he stood within ten steps.
After eating and drinking, you will naturally fall asleep.
At midnight, with a command, the troops of more than 2,000 people began to assemble.
"Everyone, go to the grain warehouse and get the food for ten days. We are ready to set off!" Liu Chenglin stood in front of the team and ordered loudly.
A grain bag filled with about ten days of food, put it on his shoulder, and the whole team held a torch and left Suning City in a mighty manner.
"Changfeng, burn all the remaining food for me." Liu Chenglin stepped onto the war horse and whispered to Liu Changfeng.
"Young Master, why not share all the food to the people of Suning? I think they are very poor too!" Liu Changfeng advised: "We have won a huge reputation in Jingzhou. Why not do this again now?"
"This is not Jingzhou. Now even if we distribute the grain to the people, Zhu Shou will still snatch the grain back when he comes, and the people will still get nothing. They burn all the grain, but whether it is not divided, the copper coins, silk, silk, silk, cloth, they will be thrown out and let the people of Suning pick it up. Tell our soldiers that I have rewarded them all. If anyone is greedy for these things and affects his combat effectiveness, I will cut him down first!"
"As for your order!" Liu Changfeng bowed with a stern face.
A fire broke out in the city of Suning. Smelling the unique aroma of food in the fire, countless people rushed out of the fire, beat their feet and stamped their chests, but there was no way. Soon they found the silk and satin that were to be discarded and the copper coins on the ground. So everyone immediately gave up the burning food that was unavailable and snatched the property.
At dawn, Liu Chenglin's troops had already left Suning City for dozens of miles.
"Young Master, where will we go next?" Liu Changfeng asked.
Liu Chenglin smiled: "The next target, Ren Qiu!"
The news that Liu Chenglin captured Suning finally reached the ears of Zhu Shou, the governor of Henghai Jiedu. At this time, Zhu Shou, who was commanding tens of thousands of troops to attack the rebellious, had just walked to Hejian. Upon hearing the news, he couldn't help but be furious. The generals under his command looked at each other. They were just like Yan Chunsheng, the magistrate of Suning County. No one expected that Liu Chenglin would have the courage to come out.
"Drag this bastard who is not strong enough to defend the territory and chop it up." Zhu Shou's face was as heavy as water. Yan Chunsheng, who ran to report the death like a beggar, waved his hand and cut off his life and death.
