"Huhu, now we don't have to lose a single soldier." Du Fei became excited and immediately ordered the quartermaster to make a fire and cook immediately. The more abundant the food, the better!
The quartermaster was stunned immediately after hearing the order: What time is it that we need to cook?
But he still followed the instructions with full of doubts. After a while, Du Feijun began to set up an iron pot on the edge of the city.
The aroma of rice wafted into the city, and the hungry coalition troops immediately swallowed their saliva.
The coalition commanders in the city, Chimi Tenmanda and Nobutsune Eriguchi, looked solemnly and asked the quartermaster how much rations were left.
The reply they got was: "It's just enough for one meal or porridge. I suggest you don't have a meal at night."
But Tenmanda immediately shouted: "Confused! They are deliberately dividing our soldiers! If we lose our morale at this time, more soldiers will defect! Make a fire and cook immediately! Even porridge is better than letting others.
It is much better for the soldiers to go hungry and watch the enemy eat and drink!"
So the coalition forces also set up a big pot in anger, and turned the little rice into pots of gruel. Although it was far from comparable to the dry rice cooked by the enemy outside the city, it at least made the defenders in the city hungry.
There is food in it, so you won't be tempted to defect.
Du Fei smiled slightly when he saw this scene. He ordered the quartermaster to kill all the big fat pigs he just bought. The large pieces of meat were cooked in the pot, giving off a strange fragrance.
"It's meat!" Although the soldiers of the Shimazu family have always been treated well, they can only have enough to eat, and such a feast is still unprecedented.
They all gathered in small groups around a few large pots and swallowed their saliva. The quartermaster shouted triumphantly to the top of the city: "Brothers, don't eat too hastily! Leave some time to eat the stew!"
"
Just now Du Fei shouted in front of the city that eight guan of salary per year had made many coalition forces in the city feel itchy. Now those coalition forces who only had gruel to feed themselves were even more disheartened.
Tenmanda Chimi and Eriguchi Nobumon could do nothing about the situation: they were about to run out of food, where would there be meat for the soldiers to eat?
Suddenly more and more coalition troops gathered at the top of the city, but they were not there to defend themselves against the enemy. Instead, they were watching the enemies from a distance as they ate the fragrant stewed meat and dry rice, making everyone salivate with greed.
At this moment, Du Fei began to attack his heart at the right time: "Brothers from the coalition forces in the county! In troubled times, a man should go to the Ming Dynasty. How can he afford your salary if your master's family doesn't even care about food? I advise you all.
It’s better to keep your eyes open and don’t be deceived.”
The coalition troops on the top of the city began to whisper after hearing this.
"What he said is quite reasonable. We haven't received any salary here for a year."
"That's right! We've also been in arrears for several months!"
"I think our master is out of money! He can't even provide enough military rations!"
chirp chirp
Du Fei saw that his words had an effect, so he continued: "If you come to our Shimazu family, not only will your annual salary be much higher, but the food will be good, and if you make military exploits, you will also be rewarded. Think about it!"
Is it worth working for the master’s family who can’t even provide enough food?”
The last sentence was so inflammatory that all the coalition soldiers thought it was the officers who were deducting food and pay. They suddenly became irritable!
In the chaos, someone shouted: "Go and open the city gate!" Then a large group of people on the top of the city ran down, preparing to open the city gate and let Du Fei's army in!
"Whoever opens the city gate and sacrifices the head of an enemy general will be rewarded with a thousand swords!" Du Fei shouted, adding fuel to the fire.
The frantic coalition forces rushed to the city gate only to find a young general wearing silver and the most elegant clothes standing in front of the gate.
"Be careful! That one seems to be Eriguchi Nobutsune! It is said that his swordsmanship is very good!" The coalition rebels hesitated.
"Go back to your post quickly. If I can put things past the past," Nobunaga Eriguchi suddenly drew his sword! With one blow, he split a big hole on the inside of the city wall: "The body was broken into pieces!"
The coalition rebels were suddenly frightened, but the voices outside the city continued to shout for surrender. At this time, Du Fei was tired of shouting and replaced himself with Dongxiang Zhongzhi with a loud voice.
"Whoever beheads an enemy general will be rewarded with a thousand guan! Whoever opens the city gate will also be rewarded with a thousand guan!"
He said these words repeatedly, which made the large group of coalition rebels feel as if there were a hundred kittens scratching their hearts. In the end, greed defeated fear. Someone shouted: "Everyone, come together! Kill."
Kill him!"
Dozens of instigated coalition forces armed with various weapons attacked Jianglikou Xinchang from all directions!
Eriguchi Nobunaga's face remained calm, and he moved his sword back and forth in a circular motion! Anyone who was approached by his blade had their limbs broken and fell to the ground dead.
A rebel holding a spear stabbed him from behind, but he turned his body slightly to the side, turned around and slashed in two with his sword! Blood sprayed like a fountain on the man behind him who was about to rush towards him.
The look on everyone's face made those people's legs and feet immediately fall off, and they involuntarily stepped back.
The originally tight encirclement around Nobuyuki Eriguchi suddenly became much larger, with a large circle of rebel corpses lying around him. It seemed that the large number of people could not suppress his unstoppable blade.
"Go back to your posts quickly! If anyone dares to have other ideas, they will be punished!" - Jiang Liguchi said viciously.
But at this moment, there was only a loud noise! The gate of the county town suddenly collapsed!
Nobutsune Eriguchi and the coalition rebels who were facing each other were all shocked!
Jiangli Koxinchang gritted his teeth and shouted loudly to other hesitant coalition soldiers in the city: "Follow me if you have the guts! Let's fight out!"
His life-long abstinence from drinking had a certain effect. Some people still stayed where they were and were unmoved. However, a few diehards of the Ryuzoji family Nabeshima Naoshigebu rushed to the city gate one after another. There were about fifty or sixty people.
They gathered around Eriguchi Nobutsune and rushed out with him!
But they found that except for a huge battering ram, there was no enemy army around them!
In the midst of doubt, suddenly a dense mass of Shimazu troops stood on the ground not far away, and a burst of fire commanders sounded like frying beans! I saw a group of fire commanders standing in front of the Shimazu troops, using all kinds of weapons.
It was the Ming Dynasty's fire-making system with powerful firepower. All of a sudden, there were flashes of fire on the battlefield! The dozens of hot-blooded Ryuzoji soldiers and Eriguchi Nobunaga were swallowed up by several tongues of fire!
By the time Jiangliguchi Nobuchang discovered the muzzles of several black guns on the opposite side, it was already too late and he saw all the brave soldiers around him dying from the explosion.
He was also hit in the legs and shoulders, but he suddenly used the knife to support the ground and tried his best not to fall down!
Several Shimadzu soldiers armed with long spears came to arrest him, but they were staggered and killed one after another by the suddenly violent Eriguchi Nobujo!
At this time there was a burst of violent gunfire!
Eriguchi Nobujo was hit all over his body! He was hit dozens of times in the chest. A huge flower of blood bloomed on his chest and he finally fell down while holding the sword with one hand.
