Chapter 311 Pingli II
Just when Tian Qifeng was swearing to go out to fight, Li Yinbin, who was about to continue moving forward, looked at the dozens of bandits in front of him with amusement, who dared to block the march of the army.
These bandits were dressed in tatters, and their hair covered with dirt was messily tied around their heads. The most valuable thing on their bodies was probably the rusty knife in their hands. Facing their thousands of troops, their legs were shaking a little.
Their eyes were wandering and they did not dare to look at themselves or the army behind them. It could be seen that they were already extremely frightened in their hearts.
However, despite this, they still stood persistently in front of them, pointing their rusty knives at themselves, threatening themselves.
"Let us go, or we will fight with you." Among the bandits, one person was at the front of the crowd. Although he was also very scared, this person still stubbornly suppressed the fear in his heart and stared with bright eyes.
By Li Yinbin.
"Your boss?" Li Yinbin smiled scornfully, "Who is your boss? Get out of here right now, or I will kill you."
As soon as Li Yinbin said this, the bandits blocking the road in front all took two steps back in fear, but they still stubbornly blocked the road, "We have no enmity or enmity with you, why do you need to embarrass my master, as long as you are willing to treat us as our master"
Let go, we people will leave immediately."
Li Yinbin's heart moved, and he remembered the two bandits he had captured on the mountain not long ago. Could it be that these people were talking about this person? He whispered to the soldiers around him: "Go and bring the two bandits you just captured to me."
come over."
The soldier nodded, turned around and ran quickly. Not long after, the big boss and Ma Laosan were tied up and pressed over. The big boss came to Li Yinbin and said with a smile: "Master, you are looking for a villain."
What's the matter?"
"I'm not looking for you." Li Yinbin raised the corner of his mouth, glanced at the group of bandits not far away, and said, "It's them who are looking for you."
"Big boss." The bandits suddenly screamed when they saw the big boss.
It was only then that the big boss noticed the group of bandits not far away. He only glanced at it, his eyes were filled with anger, and he cursed: "What are you guys doing here? Why don't you get out of here?"
Get out of here!"
"Don't be afraid, boss, we are all here to save you," one of the bandits shouted.
"Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey?" The leader yelled impatiently, "You guys still want to attack the army? Get out of here."
"Don't be afraid, boss. If we die, our brothers will die together. At worst, we will still be a good man in eighteen years. By then, our brothers will still be following you."
"You." The chief's nose was sore and his heart felt warm. What more could I ask for if you have a brother like this? "If you all go back, I won't die. This general promised me that as long as I attack Pingli County,
When the time comes, if you succeed in ascending first, let me go back. Then we brothers will be reunited, so you all can go back."
Li Yinbin, who was originally watching the excitement, rarely looked at this big boss, and secretly thought that he could win over people's hearts. This guy was considered a talent, and he might be able to recruit him next.
"Master, in that case, we brothers are willing to accompany you to attack Pingli County." The bandits suddenly knelt down towards Li Yinbin and kowtowed, "General, we are willing to accompany our general to attack Pingli County."
, I just ask this general to let our general go after we capture Pingli County."
"Okay." Li Yinbin suddenly said, "As long as you can take Pingli County, what can I do if I let you go? But we have a ugly talk ahead. If you can't take Pingli County, I will send you people away.
Let’s go on the road together.”
There was a commotion among the bandits, and then it calmed down again almost a moment later. One of the bandits said: "Okay, we are willing to win a fair profit for you. We just ask the general to keep his promise and spare our brothers' lives."
"Haha, okay, it's a deal." Li Yinbin laughed, agreed, and then ordered the people around him, "Take them on the road."
The army crossed Nuwa Mountain and Pingli County was within easy reach.
Pingli County in this era and Pingli County in later generations are not in the same place. Pingli County in later generations is the current location of Baituguan. "Border Defense Preparation of Three Provinces" written by Yan Ruzhen in the Qing Dynasty once said, "Jiaqing
In the seventh year, Pingli County was located in a low-lying area surrounded by high mountains, so it was overlooking the old city. The old city was washed away by the stream, so the county was moved to Guan. The people followed the old name of Baituguan, that is, Pingli County.'
On October 15th, the sixth year of Chongzhen, Li Yinbin finally arrived at Pingli County, the bridgehead of Hanzhong, after a difficult journey.
Pingli County is a small county, and even after searching the entire city, there were not even a few hundred soldiers to be found. After Li Yinbin arrived in Pingli County, the entire county felt like it was facing a formidable enemy, and all three squads of government officials in the city were pushed up the city wall by the magistrate.
, and even recruited
He recruited many long-term workers from wealthy families in the city, but even so, the magistrate Pingli still felt that it was not enough, so he finally recruited hundreds of people to go to the city, and scraped together nearly 2,000 people.
The small city wall was filled to the brim.
Li Yinbin's army rested for half an hour under Pingli City. After his soldiers had almost recovered, they then ordered three hundred soldiers to cut down trees. Under the command of the craftsmen accompanying the army, they built a dozen climbing ladders.
For a small town like this, a few climbing ladders are more than enough.
The soldier placed the newly made ladder in front of the bandits. Li Yinbin glanced at them and then said: "Okay, now it's your turn."
The leader looked at the defenders on the Pingli city wall, swallowed unconsciously, and suddenly knelt down to Li Yinbin and said: "General, please send archers to hold down the battle for us."
"Isn't this what we were talking about at the beginning?" Li Yinbin said with a slight smile.
"General." The big boss said solemnly: "I know that for the general, the lives of the villain and others are not important, but does the general in Pingli County not care?"
Li Yinbin turned to look at the big boss, and heard the big boss continue: "The villain and others will die under this Pingli City at worst. I just ask the general to think about it. Even if we all die under the city, what will the general do?"
Don't you still need to send troops to organize an attack? Once the general uses troops, there will be casualties. There is a difference between winning a flat victory without losing a single soldier and winning a flat profit with heavy losses. Your general will also have different results.
What's more, if the villain's guess is correct, the general is on his way in such a hurry. He must have received an order to capture Pingli within a time limit, right? If the general can send archers to support the villain, I guarantee that Pingli County will definitely be able to conquer it.
And next time, the one who will be most effective will be the general."
Li Yinbin's originally serious face suddenly laughed, "I have to say that what you said is somewhat reasonable. That's all, in order to win Pingli as soon as possible, I will send archers to help you, but you have to remember that you only have
If you don't win even if you have one chance, the rain of arrows from my archers will fall on you."
"Yes, I know, General Xie." The big boss got an advantage and stood up from the ground happily, patted the dirt on his body, and returned to the crowd of bandits.
Li Yinbin thought for a while and told the commander next to him: "Wu Yunchu, go and lead a team of archers to cover their attack. You must take Pingli County in one fell swoop. Be careful."
Wu Yunchu clasped his fists and left quickly.
The war horn resounded through Pingli County, and the thundering drums inspired people. A group of one thousand archers, led by Wu Yunchu, gradually approached Pingli County with neat steps. In front of these thousands of archers,
In front is the advance team composed of a group of bandits.
The bandits were a little panicked. In fact, since they fell into the grass, they had always attacked the small with more. This was the first time they wanted to attack the city wall directly. Looking at the dense crowd on the city wall, this group of bandits was inevitable.
With their hearts pounding, their steps became slower and slower, and some people were even so frightened that they peed their pants.
"Stay still," the leader said in a deep voice, "despite the large number of people on the city, they are just ordinary people gathered together temporarily. Let's rush up and kill a few people. These people will probably disperse. Don't be afraid.
