Chapter 21 Under the Jiangyin City

"Eat meat and kill the Tartars!"

The inexplicable sadness echoed in the camp, which only caused the thousands of soldiers from the vanguard camp nearby to look at the group of soldiers from the stamina camp holding their flesh and biting wildly there.

In the Zheng family army, the "Sheng Camp" composed of northerners has always been raised by stepmothers, and the food and salary have always been the worst. It has always been despised by the various battalions of the Zheng family army, but when they look at the soldiers of the Shiheng Camp with a sad expression, their expressions become complicated.

One thousand five hundred people!

Win Jiangyin City in two days!

How is this possible?

Isn’t these 1,500 people just going to die?

Although the camp was filled with a sense of sadness of admiration, the scene was hot. For the more than 1,500 brothers in the camp, they had never eaten a meal of meat except when they swore to leave Fujian.

Now, they were eating meat and drinking wine, and Zhu Mingzhong even walked to them, holding a wine cup and getting toasted on the table. Until the last table was finished, when the sad atmosphere reached its peak, he looked at these people and said.

"Brothers, now brothers, I will lead 100 brothers to smash the wall open. I wonder if those brothers are willing to go with them!"

Staring at these soldiers with red faces, Zhu Mingzhong was beating in his heart when he said this. Whether or not he succeeded depends on whether anyone stood up!

From instilling them with unwillingness to the status quo last night, to now using wine and meat to stimulate them, if no one takes the initiative to stand up, he will be completely finished...

"He is, a man dies and a bird is facing upwards, and he will never die for thousands of years..."

Yu Xiaobao, who had eaten and drunk enough, wiped the oil from his hands, cursed first, and then shouted loudly.

"Thank you for your wine and meat, the villain is willing to go!"

When someone started, someone naturally shouted out.

"The villain is willing to go!"

Then people kept standing up. They might be drunk, but they knew very well what this so-called "smash" was a life-long suicide squad!

"Thank you, thank you brother!"

Zhu Mingzhong clasped his fists and over the head of Changju. From the time he stood up, he knew that this was done!

When the sun was scorching at noon, Wang Yuan on the city was lying on Ayao from time to time. He was leaning on a tassel gun and looked outside the city weakly. The camp outside the city had been pierced for eight days. During these eight days, the prefect and the garrison had been desperately defended. He even ordered people to block the city gate with bricks and stones.

Anyway, no matter how much they scolded or shouted outside, they would guard the city wall. If the Ming army came, they would fire artillery and shoot arrows, and they wouldn't leave the city anyway.

"Grandson in the city, listen well, you guys from the Doc Forget Sect, the rat tail is so comfortable to keep on your head..."

Once again, there were screams and scolding outside the city. Looking out from the battlement, you could see another group of Ming soldiers outside the city cursing, and they even deliberately exposed their hair buns on their heads.

Looking at the bun from afar, Wang Yuan felt his eyes warm and his face suddenly became hot. He looked left and right, and everyone was hanging their heads, with an extremely complicated expression.

This is Jiangyin. Just over a dozen years ago, people here sacrificed their heads for the clothes on their hair. Now... they felt the braids like rat tail on the back of their heads, and an inexplicable humiliation filled his heart.

"I won't shave my head..."

Once again, more than ten years ago, when my father forced his razor, the crying boy returned to his mind again. It was a memory that was far away and could not be picked up.

"Wuyan saw the ancestors and ancestors..."

Just then, suddenly, a voice rang in their ears.

"All up, get up and stand up, he's like a dead mother. Tell you, if anyone of you dares to surrender, don't blame the ruthless guru for being ruthless. The city is filled with tinder oil and dry firewood. With just one handful of fire, you can burn all the Jiangyin City!"

Unlike these people who have the word "yong" written on them and temporarily recruited village heroes, the number of people who cursed and spoke the northern dialect said "soldiers". He is the Green Camp soldier. There are only 800 Green Camp soldiers in Jiangyin City, but they are the backbone of the guards of Jiangyin. As for the other temporary recruitment of village heroes, most of them were forced by swords and guns. Even for fear of their uproar, the Jiangyin garrison Cao'an Gang was filled with turbulent oil and dry firewood in the city, using this as a threat. Of course, in addition to this, there are also temptations - in addition to the military pay of 2 taels of silver per month, if they can defend Jiangyin City, each person will be rewarded with another 20 taels!

With such threats and temptations, Jiangyin City will not fall due to the mutiny of the village heroes.

"Oh, forgot, forgot..."

I felt sad that when Wang Yuan looked out of the city, I unexpectedly saw some reed tubes moving on the river surface outside the city, and it seemed that I could still see the mud at the bottom of the river rolling. That was... When I was a child, when Wang Yuan was playing in the water, he used reed tubes to vent his air and hid under the water.

When he subconsciously wanted to scream, Wang Yuan suddenly stopped when he just reached his throat. His eyes drooped and he pretended to be invisible.

What do they want to do? Are they trying to call in through Water Gate?

No!

Thinking of the water gate under his feet, Wang Yuan muttered in his heart that the fence of the water gate was made of cooked iron, and there was also a wrapped iron door on the water surface to block it. Although the water gate was not blocked by bricks and stones, it was not easier than siegeing the city gate.

Just as Wang Yuan was curious about why the Ming army outside the city was snorking to the water gate, Zhu Mingzhong, who was swimming under the water gate with a reed tube in his arms, had already jumped to the water gate. At the water gate, several wooden boards several meters long floated on the water surface, which was specially floated over before.

"Sir, what should I do next?"

Yu Xiaobao and others, who were poking their heads out of the water, looked at the water gate of the black hole, the gate-type water gate blocking the way, and looked at Zhu Mingzhong nervously. What is he trying to do?

"Stuck the board on this, yes, that's it..."

Pointing at the rock crack below the water gate door, Zhu Mingzhong ordered them to nail a few iron nails, and then put the wooden board in the door door, forming a place for people to stand under the water gate door. Only then did the big guy come out of the water gate and stand on the wooden board, and they saw the adults take off the package that had been tied to it from the wooden board.

When the package was opened, Yu Xiaobao looked at the things in the package and his eyes were stunned.

"Sir, this is..."
