Chapter 30: Lost in City Defense

Da Kui walked on the street for a while. Fortunately, he did not encounter any trouble. Now that the Yuan and Ming armies were at war, he was afraid that he would encounter Yuan soldiers patrolling the city. Although he was not afraid, it would be troublesome. Da Kui escorted Zhang Liangbi He led Zhang Liangchen down the alley and went around and around to a private house. When he entered the courtyard, there was no one there. Da Kui ordered Zhang Liangchen to close the door and bolt it, but Zhang Liangchen did not dare to disobey.

The three of them came to the courtyard, and Dakui asked Zhang Liangchen to go into the house to look for a rope. He planned to tie up Zhang Liangbi first, and then go to deal with Zhang Liangchen. Unexpectedly, the rope was not found yet, and he heard a noise on the street in the distance.

Dakui was a little angry. Why did the Yuan soldiers arrive so quickly? It seemed that they were searching house to house.

While Zhang Liangchen was in the room, Da Kui hit Zhang Liangbi on the back of the head with a sheathed sword. Zhang Liangbi fell to the ground without even making a sound. Da Kui then carried Zhang Liangbi and walked to a well in the courtyard. , regardless of how deep the well was or whether there was water, he bent down and shook his hands and stuffed Zhang Liangbi into the well.

Zhang Liangchen was afraid that something might happen to his elder brother, so he naturally did not dare to disobey Dakui. He searched around the house and found no rope before leaving the house and entering the courtyard. However, when he looked around, he saw Dakui alone standing in the courtyard.

"What did you do to the general?" Zhang Liangchen asked angrily.

Dakui chuckled and said: "How can I get out of the city with him? I hid him,"

Zhang Liangchen's eyes turned red when he heard this. He roared and rushed towards Da Kui. When he was going out, Da Kui asked Zhang Liangchen to throw away the knife. He was just trying to guard against this move. People said that Zhang Liangchen was very skilled in martial arts, so he had to guard against it. Although Zhang Liangchen may not be his opponent, Da Kui is also afraid of capsizing in the gutter.

Seeing Zhang Liangchen rushing in front of him, Da Kui stepped forward and swung his body, gently swinging the long knife in his left hand. Zhang Liangchen groaned in pain and fell to the ground with a 'plop'. Da Kui actually drew the knife as he was shaking. The knife was very concealed and easily broke Zhang Liangchen's thigh tendon. Once Zhang Liangchen was injured, it was not meat on the chopping board.

Dakui turned around and looked at Zhang Liangchen again, his forehead was so painful that he was sweating.

"It is said that the brothers of the Zhang family are both civilized and martial, and today they are indeed worthy of their reputation," Dakui said, inserting the 'Dragon Song Sword' on his waist, then walked over and picked up Zhang Liangchen and continued: "Brothers are of the same mind, and their sharpness can cut through metal. , I will send you to see your elder brother right now, don’t be impatient." Just as Zhang Liangchen was about to struggle, Dakui slashed him on the back of the head with the back of a knife, and he suddenly fainted.

Dakui carried Zhang Liangchen's body to the well, and stuffed Zhang Liangchen head down into the well in the same manner.

In any case, the two generals of Qingyang City have been captured alive by him. As for whether they are alive or dead after being thrown into the well, it is not Dakui's concern. The Yuan soldiers in the city are leaderless, and the natural city is about to be destroyed. Besides, he can offer suggestions to the marshal. Deceive the city gate to open, and then come back to fish out the Zhang brothers to ask for credit from the marshal.

Thinking about the expansion of Timur's plan to send troops to the east, whether he came to escort or come to Qingyang to relieve the siege, Qingyang fell into the hands of the Ming army, which was tantamount to strangling it by the throat.

Thinking of this, Dakui giggled. Ever since he became an official, he has rarely been so happy.

Dakui looked at the mouth of the well and couldn't help but think: If the two brothers Zhang Liangbi and Zhang Liangchen were not dead, what would happen if they woke up and shouted loudly?

Looking left and right, there was a large stone mill not far away. Stone mills are common items in people's homes. It seemed that the stone mill weighed five to six hundred kilograms. Dakui walked to the stone mill and gathered his strength to hold it in his arms. Walk back to the wellhead.

With a loud bang, Dakui pressed the big stone mill on the wellhead. In this way, even if Zhang Liangbi and Zhang Liangchen were alive, no one would be able to hear them if they wanted to shout.

Da Kui straightened up and clapped his hands, and then walked out of the yard with great satisfaction. At this moment, house-to-house searches were being carried out in the city. Da Kui did not dare to delay, and ran towards the east of the city under the moonlight, turning around several alleys to avoid The Yuan soldiers on the street came to the east gate of the city. Looking around, there were Yuan soldiers guarding both the upper and lower walls of the city. How to get out of the city? Dakui was hiding in the dark and was a little worried. At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from the street. A group of cavalry galloped to the bottom of the city. The captain on duty had already rushed forward. Dakui was far away and could not hear what was said.

After a while, the city began to get busy.

First, the Yuan soldiers entered several courtyards near the city gate, and soon drove out a large number of people. Dakui just hid in the dark and took a closer look. It turned out that the Yuan soldiers drove the people to transport rolling logs and stones to the city. They said they were rolling logs. They were just beams removed from private houses, which were sawed and used for city defense. The stones were also stones removed from private houses. It turned out that the city had to be defended tomorrow, so the cavalry team came to urge the strengthening of the city defense.

Dakui turned around and retreated into an alley, approaching the city wall from the dark. As he approached, he saw several Yuan soldiers standing under the city, holding whips and driving away the people. Dakui came out of the dark and went straight to the people under the city wall. Flow away.

Eight feet away from the flow of people, Dakui began to shout: "Hurry up, take your time," and when several Yuan soldiers saw a school captain coming, they not only swung their whips more diligently.

"You guys come with me to the city to have a look," Dakui said, gesticulating arrogantly.

Several Yuan soldiers looked at each other, and there was indeed some hesitation. One of the corps commanders walked up to Dakui and asked, "I don't know which battalion the officer is from."

When Dakui heard this, without saying a word, he waved his hand and slapped the captain, spinning him around three times.

"I join the army as a captain in the garrison. I am here to inspect the city's defense affairs and not to lead the way," Dakui said with a lively voice.

Wu Changxu was stunned. Seeing Dakui's overwhelming momentum, how could he dare to neglect him?

"The young ones have no eyes, the young have no eyes." The Wu Commander turned around and waved to a few of his subordinates, then led Da Kui to the city defense ladder. There were common people on the way who were in the way, and a few Yuan soldiers who were like wolves and tigers went up and whipped them with two whips. .

Every section of the road was guarded by Yuan soldiers, but when he saw that it was his own people who were going to the city, there was no doubt. Da Kui followed these Yuan soldiers to the top of the city, and gave some commanding instructions to the city's defense military affairs, giving orders and arrogance. Very majestic.

"Hey, who is that? Why is the rope of this log so short?" Dakui asked, pointing to a log lying beside the battlement.

The team leader next to him stepped forward and said, "This rope is too long and it's inconvenient to pull."

"Fart," Da Kui not only yelled: "How can there be any force if the rope is broken?"

The corps commander stood beside him, but he didn't dare to express his anger. If he made the captain angry, he would be slapped twice.

"Go and find two long ropes to put on," Dakui ordered angrily, but the captain didn't move.

Although Dakui was angry on the face, he was also beating a drum in his heart. At this time, a group of soldiers patrolling the city came from a distance, and the leader was a man who looked like a general. The captain next to Dakui greeted them as if they were seeing relatives.

"General Wulan," the corps commander came to the leading general with a look of grievance. He muttered and didn't know what he said. After listening to the corps commander's words, the general and his men walked towards Da Kui. When he got closer, he looked Dakui up and down, and his face was full of disdain: "Which battalion are you from? Do you have military cards?"

"I am a captain of the garrison who joined the army. I came to patrol the city under the order of General Zhang. I came in a hurry and didn't bring my military badge, but the general gave me his sword," he said, flashing the 'Long Yin' in his hand. sword'.

The general who led the troops did have some knowledge, but he recognized the sword when he saw it.

"Oh, haha, I am Ulan Bat'er, who is subordinate to the Second General. This city defense matter is under the jurisdiction of the Second General." Although Ulan Bat'er said it very vaguely, the meaning was very clear, that is to say, this city defense is under the jurisdiction of the Second General. , the generals should stop meddling in other people’s business.

Dakui is not stupid, so how could he fail to understand the underlying meaning?

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. Since General Ulan said so, I will report back to the general and say that it is my nosy business to check the city defense," he said, clasping his fists at Ulan Bater and turning around to leave.

"How come I haven't seen you before?" Ulan Bat'er behind him suddenly asked this sentence. Dakui was shocked and screamed inwardly, but turned around with a smile on his face and said: "There are tens of thousands of people in the army. I am a new member of the army, so of course you don’t recognize me,”

Ulan Bat'er looked at Dakui for a long time, and then said: "I also went to the garrison to discuss matters tonight. The messenger from Yingchang is you, right?" As he spoke, Ulan Bat'er's tone finally softened slightly.

Dakui was stunned when he heard this, and immediately borrowed the donkey from the slope: "Oh, General Wulan really has a good memory. I narrowly escaped death and came to Qingyang City, and now I can't go back, so I asked the general for a job. I'm just a guy." The messenger at the post station knows very little about the military affairs, so the general sent me to come and walk around the city tonight. To be honest, I still need to ask General Ulan for advice on many things," Dakui laughed and stretched out his hand. Ulan Bater patted him on the shoulder.

Wu Lanbaat'er chuckled and said, "It's easy to talk, since brothers like this can look around, and if you need help, just ask them," he said, pointing to the team leader and several soldiers who brought Da Kui to the city.

"Oh, thank you General Ulan for taking care of me," Da Kui repeatedly bowed his hands.

Wulanbaat'er waved his hand and said with a smile: "General, I have military affairs, so I won't accompany you. Brothers, please do as you please."

Dakui handed him over again, and Ulanbaat'er led a group of soldiers to the distance again.

"Did you hear what General Ulan said?" Dakui straightened his back and spoke with great air.

Wu Zhang Pidianpidian came over and said with a smile: "You guys heard me very clearly. If you have any questions, please give me orders."

"Well, find a long rope and replace the short rope on this rolling log," Dakui pointed to the rolling log placed next to the wall stack again.

"Hey, little one, let's go and do it right now. The army sergeant will be waiting here for a moment," the corps commander bowed repeatedly with the utmost respect.

This time the corps commander didn't waste any more time. He greeted the two soldiers and trotted down the city. Da Kui finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he had a rope, he could go down to the city safely. But he had to go down to the city. There is a reason why,
