It's just that everyone is a red scarf rebel, so it's not easy to talk openly.
"Peng Da and others are great heroes. They killed the Tatars in Xuzhou and were frightened by the news. If it were not for the betrayal by spies, they would not come to our Haozhou. With Peng Da in charge, Marshal Zhu, you can safely specialize in excluding Huainan." Sun Deya smiled.
said.
"If Peng Da were really capable, he wouldn't have let the Tatars come all the way from Xuzhou. Even if he came, I'm afraid it would be of no use. If you ask me, we still have to rely on our own people." Guo Zixing said with a gloomy face.
In this Haozhou defense battle, Guo Zixing suffered heavy losses. Not only did he lose a lot of soldiers and horses, but his eldest son also died on the battlefield.
Although Peng Da of Xuzhou lost the city, he followed it with tens of thousands of elite troops. Once he came to Chuzhou, Guo Zixing, the marshal of Haozhou, would have to give up his position to others.
"Although we are no longer in Haozhou, we cannot ignore the difficulties in Haozhou. No one knows how Peng Da and others are doing. It is not possible to let them come to Haozhou, but let them support Marshal Guo.
We will be the first to refuse the seat," Zhu Yuanzhang said.
Haozhou is the northern gateway of Dingyuan City.
If Haozhou is not in the hands of his own people, Zhu Yuanzhang is really not at ease.
When Sun Deya and others heard that Zhu Yuanzhang was so sure, they all fell into trouble.
In this battle of Haozhou, the army led by Zhu Yuanzhang was not only larger in scale, but also a bit stronger in combat power.
Sun Deya and others were envious and afraid.
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, they naturally did not dare to say anything more, but they were dissatisfied and wanted to invite Peng Da back after Zhu Yuanzhang left.
The mentality of Sun Deya and others is that no matter who is the boss of Haozhou, they cannot let Guo Zixing do it.
Zhu Yuanzhang not only wanted them to fight the thunder for him in Haozhou, but also could not let them have too much internal friction, so he planned to stay in Haozhou for a while.
"We really want to see who Peng Da is."
After returning to the military camp, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said to Xu Da.
"Commander, it doesn't matter what Peng Da is. Anyway, when you come to Haozhou, you have to behave honestly for us." Xu Da said.
In this battle of Haozhou, Xu Da killed all sides, but it was these Yuan troops who were cut off from melons and vegetables, but they defeated Peng Da in Xuzhou.
Why should we care if our generals are defeated and our generals are defeated?
The troops led by Peng Da were not far from Haozhou. He originally planned to lead his army to repel the Yuan army and allow himself to enter Haozhou.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang cut through the mess quickly and drove away the Yuan army.
Peng Da was naturally very unhappy. How could he go to Haozhou to compete for the top spot?
However, when Peng Da came to Haozhou and saw Zhu Yuanzhang's soldiers and horses, he immediately became afraid.
"No wonder Zhu Yuanzhang was able to defeat Tuotuo's soldiers and horses so easily. It turns out that he has strong troops under his command!"
Peng Da couldn't help but said to his son Peng Zaozhu.
"Dad, I heard that Zhu Yuanzhang is Guo Zixing's son-in-law. With his support, we won't be able to take the top spot in Haozhou."
Peng Da also had no plans for this fantasy.
The troops they saw outside Haozhou City were all elite vanguards led by Xu Da.
The Xuzhou rebel army led by Peng Da, Zhao Junyong and others could not even defeat Tuotuo's Yuan army. Naturally, they were extremely afraid of Zhu Yuanzhang who could beat the Yuan army violently.
However, Peng Da is not someone who gives in easily. He plans to get along with Zhu Yuanzhang. If Zhu Yuanzhang is capable and generous, then he will stay in Haozhou and not compete for first or second place. He will just be a marshal.
Just one is fine.
If Zhu Yuanzhang's abilities are average, then Peng Da will plan more carefully.
When the two groups met, Zhu Yuanzhang and Peng Da tried to test them politely.
After the Jie Feng banquet, Zhu Yuanzhang said to Xu Da and others.
"We look at Peng Da, and he is somewhat heroic. If we get along with him for a few more days, we can win him over and help us guard Haozhou, and there won't be any trouble."
Haozhou's geographical location is important and it is impossible for any one person to dominate.
"Commander, I see that Peng Da and others have brought many troops. Without us, Guo Zixing really can't deal with them." Xu Da said.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, he naturally saw this problem.
Guo Zixing's abilities are average and his strength is average. If he doesn't have his own support, he will definitely conflict with Peng Da and others over time.
Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was about to speak, General Guo Ying suddenly barged in from outside.
"Commander, urgent report!" Guo Ying panted.
"Where did the urgent report come from?" Zhu Yuanzhang immediately frowned.
"Except the state!" Guo Ying quickly sent a letter.
Zhu Yuanzhang quickly opened it and took a look, and was shocked.
"It's broken, Qiwu is in danger!"
When Xu Da and others heard this, their expressions all changed.
Chuzhou is the base where they are preparing to grow. If there is danger, the battles in the past few months will be in vain.
"Commander, what's going on?" Xu Da asked quickly.
"The Tatars from the south of the Yangtze River attacked Chuzhou. One hundred thousand troops came and surrounded Chuzhou!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang said this, beads of sweat broke out on his face.
For Zhu Yuanzhang, the emotional status of Zhu Han, his biological brother, cannot be replaced by anyone.
"Send the order, and the whole army will be ready to leave immediately. Follow us to help Chuzhou!" Zhu Yuanzhang ordered loudly.
At this time, some generals could not help but persuade.
"Commander, what should we do in Haozhou?"
"Yes, Marshal, as soon as we leave, Peng Da and others will definitely show up, and then Haozhou will not listen to us."
What Haozhou, what Pengda, what Guo Zixing.
Zhu Yuanzhang just didn't care at this time.
What he wanted to do all he wanted to do was to go back and help Chuzhou quickly, so that Zhu Han wouldn't be in any danger.
"I don't care about Haozhou. The world is not as important as the life of our brother Qiwu!" Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned red.
When Xu Da and others saw this, they didn't dare to say anything and immediately went back to prepare their troops to break up camp and leave Haozhou.

Zhu Yuanzhang received urgent letters from the other two groups of messengers one after another.
There was also news from Dingyuan that three thousand troops were sent to aid Chuzhou.
"There are only 8,000 soldiers in Dingyuan, but it is too dangerous to send 3,000 troops to eliminate the state." Xu Da couldn't help but said.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't understand the truth behind this.
However, at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang felt extremely pleased.
"Danger is danger, but my wife knows the general situation and knows that removing the state is important. Even if it is dangerous, we will send troops to rescue!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.
Ma Xiuying explained the situation in the letter and said that in order to save Zhu Han's safety, everything could be ignored. This warmed Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.
The wife he married really regarded his younger brother as his biological brother.
The army led by Zhu Yuanzhang left Haozhou with great fanfare, but Guo Zixing, Sun Deya, Peng Da and others in Haozhou City were confused.
Didn't you agree that you would stay in Haozhou for a while longer? Why did you have to run away so quickly?
Zhu Yuanzhang has no patience at all for these doubts.
He just sent someone to inform Guo Zixing, and then led the army back south.
Because he left in a hurry, a lot of food, grass and baggage had to be thrown into the military camp and given to Guo Zixing.
Guo Zixing, his son Guo Tianxu and others came to the military camp, only to find an empty camp.
"Dad, this Zhu Chongba is really a piece of shit. He promised to convince Peng Da before leaving, but now he is running very fast!" Guo Tianxu said angrily.
Peng Da and others brought more than 10,000 elite soldiers, far more than the rabble in Guo Zixing's hands.
Without Zhu Yuanzhang's help, Guo Zixing would not be able to retain his position as marshal of Haozhou City.
Unexpectedly, Guo Zixing was not as angry as he imagined.
"Bah, you know what a fool. The more this happens, the more it shows that Zhu Yuanzhang is affectionate and righteous. He is willing to throw away so much food and supplies to save his brother Zhu Han. When we are in trouble, he will definitely come to save us." Guo Zixing
said.
Guo Tianxu, however, looked dissatisfied, "Dad, you are thinking too beautifully. We are just like Zhu Hanneng. He is his biological brother, so who are we?"
Guo Zixing's eyes widened, "I am his father-in-law Zhu Yuanzhang, what do you think it means?"
"What father-in-law? I think you have lost a eldest daughter in vain." Guo Tianxu had already been interested in his adopted sister Ma Xiuying, but his father Guo Zixing refused to agree, and finally married that fake monk Zhu Yuanzhang.
"You know nothing!" Guo Zixing was a little angry.
However, Guo Tianxu still refused to give up, and murmured in the capital: "It would be great if sister Xiuying married me. Then you will be my father and my father-in-law, and we will become even more intimate!"
"Bah, what nonsense are you talking about!" Guo Zixing scolded.
"What am I talking nonsense about? I also like Xiuying, why couldn't you marry me in the first place?" Guo Tianxu shouted.
Snapped!
Guo Zixing slapped Guo Tianxu in the face.
"Bah, you fucking like it, you have such a greedy body!"
The army led by Zhu Yuanzhang marched day and night towards Chuzhou.
The further he walked, the more anxious Zhu Yuanzhang became.
We never encountered another messenger coming from the direction of Chuzhou, which shows that the situation in Chuzhou is not good.
At the very least, the Yuan army must have completely blocked the siege of Chuzhou.
As for the barrier cities such as Liuhe, most of them have been successfully attacked by the Yuan army.
An isolated city in Chuzhou is really extremely dangerous.
"Qiwu, you have to hold on, we have to save you even if we risk our lives!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was anxious and ordered to speed up the march again.
Xu Da couldn't help but persuaded from the side: "Commander, we can't go any faster. If we go faster, even if we run to Chuzhou, our hands and feet will be so weak that we can't even fight with swords and guns."
Zhu Yuanzhang pursed his lips tightly, "We know that too, but the situation is critical now, and we don't know if the Yuan army is willing to wait for us!"
Even though some soldiers were too tired to keep up with the large team, Zhu Yuanzhang did not order to slow down.
Because of the siege of the state, everyone in Dingyuan City and Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the sky was about to fall.
As for the rightful owner, Zhu Han was leisurely drinking tea at the top of Chuzhou City.
"Sir, this is the spring tea served in Lu Wen's Taoist family. I heard it costs more than twenty taels of silver per pound!" Hu Yiba said next to him.
Zhu Han took a sip and showed a satisfied smile.
"Not bad!"
"It's so beautiful. Drinking fragrant tea and watching Yuan Jun's monkey show, it's really wonderful."
boom!
Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, a roar of artillery came, but Zhu Han was not affected at all. Instead, he looked outside the city with great joy.
A burst of bombardment from the rebel artillery smashed a tall tower truck of the Yuan Army into pieces.
The heavy wooden frame could not support the weight and fell crookedly to the side.
The soldiers of the Yuan army who were pushing the tower carts forward had no time to dodge, and they screamed and were pinned underneath.
"Haha, good fight!"
Zhu Han said happily.
The Yuan army outside the city kept innovating their siege methods, but finally they were nothing new and they even adopted ancient siege methods.
They made many tall tower cars and rush cars.
After forcing the Han people to fill in some of the trenches, they used these tall tower vehicles as a means to attack the city.
However, for Zhu Han, who was brave with new artillery, these huge tower trucks were living targets.
Rebel artillery can easily hit and destroy them.
The Yuan army's hard work for many days was instantly reduced to a pile of broken wood.
ah!
The tragic wails of wounded soldiers could be heard constantly on the battlefield.
Barbarian Hague looked at everything in front of him and was already in extreme embarrassment.
No matter what siege methods were used, the Yuan army used them over and over again, but they were still unable to break through Chuzhou City at all.
The key point is the artillery on the city wall, which can fire quickly and accurately.
Whether it was artillery, ramming vehicles, tower vehicles, or returning artillery, they were all destroyed from a distance.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hague, the left prime minister of Jiangnan Province in the Yuan Dynasty, already felt that his skills were at the end of his rope.
He couldn't think of any method that worked or didn't work.
What's even more frightening is that part of the food and grass was burned due to a raid by the rebels.
At this time, the Yuan army did not have much food in stock, and the people around them were hiding one after another. It was also very difficult to collect food and grass.
"Sir, it's better to retreat. Let's go back to Liuhe first and wait for the food and grass supplies from Jiangnan to arrive, and then continue the attack."
"Yes, sir, we don't have any means to attack the city, so why not go back and discuss it first."
"Sir, those thieves have powerful artillery. Let's go back and cast some, and then we can attack Chuzhou."
Barbarian Hague really didn't want to agree to the persuasion of these generals.
However, this was the case and there was nothing he could do.
Therefore, he planned to withdraw his troops back to Liuhe in two more days.
At this moment, a guard suddenly called.
"Sir, there is someone from Chuzhou City who wants to see you."
"Who are the people from Chuzhou?" Barbarian Hague was stunned for a moment.
"Like the gentry who eliminated the state."
Barbarian Hague was moved in his heart and immediately sent someone to bring him in.
"Who are you!"
When Barbarian Hague saw the person coming, he asked very majestically.
"Master Qi, my master is Lu Wendao, a wealthy family in Chuzhou!" The visitor knelt down and said.
"Lu Wendao?"
Barbarian Hague had heard of this name. He was a famous scholar in Chuzhou. He had served as an official in the Yuan Dynasty before, but later he was idle at home.
"My master wants to pass on information to your lord."
"What information? Lu Wendao has already surrendered to the thieves. Do you still want to deceive me?" Barbarian Haiya glared at him, with a murderous look on his fierce face.
"Come here, get this spy out and chop his head off!" Barbarian Hague said.
Immediately, two wolf-like guards stepped forward.
When the messenger saw this, he was so frightened that he peed his buttocks and kept kowtowing.
"Sir, I am not a spy, I really have information!"
Seeing this, Barbarian Hague waved his hand.
"What's going on? To tell the truth, if you tell a half-truth, your head will fall to the ground immediately!" Barbarian Hague said fiercely.
"Your Majesty, my master just wants to tell you that the red scarf thieves in the city don't have much food and grass, and they only have three to five days to use. If the army withdraws at this time, it will be easier for them," the messenger said.
"What, three to five days of food and grass?"
When Barbarian Hague heard this, he immediately beamed with joy.
The Yuan army only had seven or eight days of food and grass, but it was much more than the defenders had three or five days of food and grass.
As long as the siege of the city continues, it won't be long before the defenders run out of food and there will be no way to defend the city.
How can a bunch of people starve to death and have any strength?
"Speaking of which, what does your master want?" Barbarian Hague said directly.
"Sir, my master said he wants to be the prefect of Chuzhou after repelling the thieves!"
Hearing this condition, Barbarian Hague dismissed it.
He can still recommend anyone other than the prefect of the state.
"Okay, then go back and tell your master, I will remember it," Barbarian Hague said.
After the envoy left, Barbarian Hague immediately canceled his plan to withdraw his troops.
Although the soldiers under him were unwilling to fight a tough battle to the death, they all became more ambitious after hearing that the defenders did not have much food and grass and could use up the rebel army.
They all clamored to break through Chuzhou and capture alive the abominable leader of the red scarf thieves, Zhu Han.
Barbarian Hague has another plan.
That is the artillery of Chuzhou City!
These artillery pieces are really too powerful. If they can fall into their hands, preferably with the craftsmen who made them, then the barbarian Hague can kill everyone.
After the entire Yuan Dynasty was quelled, no one except Hague, the barbarian, had such a magical weapon.
When the time comes to become king and prime minister, you will never be able to escape.
As a result, the Yuan army was safely stationed outside the city again, intending to consume the defenders alive.
Except for the city walls, the movements of the Yuan army could not be concealed from the rebels.
Zhu Han was very happy after seeing the changes in the Yuan army.
He said to Lu Wendao next to him: "The Tartars will not leave this time. When the main force of our army comes back, we will wipe out this group of Tartars. I will also give you a credit!"
Lu Wendao dared not address him repeatedly.
That's right, the idea of sending people outside the city to deliver false information about food shortages to lure the Yuan army to continue the siege came from Zhu Han.
After many days of continuous confrontation, Zhu Han had already seen the reality of this Jiangnan Yuan army.
All the Mongolian warriors have become rotten and degenerated.
Especially the Mongolian garrison in the south of the Yangtze River are even more vulnerable.
The rebels currently lack navy troops. If they are allowed to leave Chuzhou and retreat back to Jiangnan, it will be difficult to eliminate them in a short time.
It would be better to lure them to stay in Chuzhou, wait until brother Zhu Yuanzhang leads his army back, and wipe out the main force of the Yuan army, thus reducing a lot of trouble for the future attack on Jiangnan.
Nowadays, the combat effectiveness of the rebel army is far superior to that of the Mongols stationed in the south of the Yangtze River.
The Mongolian and Yuan troops outside the city did not know that they had been looked down upon by Zhu Han, but they were still setting up a series of formations.
One camp after another surrounded Chuzhou City.
Zhu Han relied on the power of artillery to prevent the Yuan army from approaching the city and engaging in a war of attrition, giving them ample time to practice and rest.
The three thousand new troops faced numerous sieges. Not only did they not lose morale and lose their combat effectiveness, they actually became stronger.
Under the current situation, all it takes is the arrival of reinforcements from brother Zhu Yuanzhang, and they can coordinate internally and externally to pierce the bluff of the Mongolian and Yuan army from the inside.
However, this posture of heavily troops besieging the city looks a bit bluffing.
Tang He led 3,000 soldiers and horses from Dingyuan to Chuzhou, where he saw a series of camps of the Tartar army from a distance.
"My mother, there are really an army of 100,000!"
Tang He sighed, feeling very flustered in his heart.
In addition to Zhu Han's 3,000 troops and horses in Zhouzhou, Tang He's 3,000 troops and horses, even if added together, are not enough to fill the gap between the teeth of an army of 100,000 yuan.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As for why the 100,000 yuan army did not conquer Chuzhou City, the reason is very simple in Tang He's opinion.
What the Tatars do is surround the area and call for reinforcements.
They left Chuzhou City behind to lure the rebels to come to relieve the siege, but in reality they were here to die.
"Boss, what are we going to do?" A small school captain asked when he saw that the general did not speak.
"Oh, what else can we do? We can't really rush in and die."
Tang He sighed.
Under the current circumstances, all he can do is spread suspicion and delay for some more time.
As for when the main force led by Zhu Yuanzhang will return, Tang He has no idea at all.
"Go, put out all the flags, and sound all the trumpets!"
"Once the Tatars get close, all of them run for the mountains!"
Soup and ordered loudly.
With the sound of drums, a large number of flags suddenly appeared on the Western Mountains all over the mountains and plains. From a distance, it looked quite majestic.
The Yuan army outside the city was shocked when they saw this, and quickly reported it to their commander, Manzi Hague.
"What, reinforcements?" Barbarian Hague was stunned.
He had sent out many scouts, how could reinforcements be so close.
Then there is only one possibility...
This group of reinforcements was small in number. They passed through the gap between the Yuan army's scouts and reached the vicinity of the main force of the Yuan army.
"Send someone to investigate and see how many soldiers and horses there are."
Barbarian Hague climbed up to the sentry post and looked around. He saw rebel flags all over the mountains and fields, but not a single person.
"Hmph, you're a little trickster, but you dare to do the same thing!" Barbarian Hague dismissed it.
The Chuzhou defenders also saw some flags, and immediately thought that Zhu Yuanzhang's main force was back, and they all cheered.
"It shouldn't be that my brother is back." Zhu Han didn't quite believe it.
Judging from the distance and marching speed, it cannot be my main force.
"Sir, even if it's fake, it means our reinforcements are here." Hu Yiba said happily.
"Wait a minute, it's not time to send troops yet!" Zhu Han said.
Far outside the city, Tang He and his army were busy working, but the Yuan army had no intention of being deceived.
In fact, except for some scouts who wanted to approach for exploration, no troops came to fight.
This made Tang He very angry.
"Damn it, do you think the dog Tartars treat me as a dead person?"
There were also very few soldiers and horses, and their only function was to lure the Yuan army to abandon the camp and pursue them, leaving them exhausted.
However, this is a test of acting skills.
Tang He is obviously not good at acting, and Tatar is not fooled at all.
"It seems that it's not possible to be serious."
Tang He was cruel and immediately ordered the entire army.
"Listen to me, I have been eating and drinking well in Dingyuan for so long. It's time for us to work hard. I will lead you to charge tomorrow and teach the Tatars a lesson!"
"well!"
The three thousand rebel soldiers responded immediately.
Later, Tang He ordered someone to take out the commander's flag of "Marshal Zhu Yuanzhang" he was carrying.
Prepare to hang it out tomorrow to scare the Yuan army.
"Humph, I don't believe it anymore. When you see this handsome flag, the dog Tatars still refuse to chase it?"
the next day.
Tang He led five hundred soldiers and horses to rush left and right outside the Yuan army's camp and uprooted all the scattered outposts.
Faced with such an arrogant provocation, Barbarian Hague was naturally unwilling to give in.
He immediately sent out three thousand soldiers and horses to pursue him.
Barbarian Hague has already concluded that his guess yesterday was not wrong.
These red scarf bandit reinforcements were only three to five hundred people. They did not dare to get too close to the main camp of the Yuan army. Sending three thousand soldiers and horses was enough to take them seriously.
Who would have known that this played into Tang He's plan.
The three hundred rebels fled all the way, leading thousands of Tatar soldiers into the ambush.
boom!
As a cannon sounded, the surrounding ambush troops rushed out bravely.
"Marshal Zhu Yuanzhang is here, the Tatars will die soon!"
Tang He held up Zhu Yuanzhang's commanding flag and shouted in a fake manner.
These Mongolian soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River are claimed to be a strong army, but they don't have the appearance of a strong army at all.
As soon as he encountered the scene in front of him, he immediately became a mess.
"Brothers, kill!"
Tang He took the lead and fought bravely under the banner of Marshal Du to kill the enemy.
The three thousand Yuan army was instantly routed.
The red-eyed rebels didn't give them a chance to escape. They chased them out of the valley and appeared in the sight of the main force of the Yuan army.
"What, Zhu Yuanzhang?"
When the barbarian Hague saw that his troops were defeated and returned, he immediately exclaimed again and again.
"It's the leader of the thieves, Zhu Yuanzhang!"
The Yuan army was suddenly panicked. They all knew that there were fifty or sixty thousand red scarf thieves and they would be very difficult to deal with.
At the top of Chuzhou City, the defenders also let out bursts of cheers.
"Reinforcements are coming!"
"The commander is back!"
Zhu Han looked from a distance and saw thousands of Tatar soldiers and horses being killed in a great defeat, and he also expected that his brother was back.
"It's time to attack!"
Zhu Han immediately captured the fighter plane.
Now the Yuan army outside the city has been shaken!
If he leads an attack with three thousand elites, he can definitely turn the tide of the battle around.
After all, brother Zhu Yuanzhang has tens of thousands of troops in his hands!
"Send the order! All troops attack, bring all the artillery!"
Zhu Han gave the order, and Chen Baodao, Hu Yiba, Lu Zhongheng and others immediately went to make arrangements.
Then, he looked at Lu Wendao and other gentry who were expelling the state.
"Mr. Lu, I will go out of the city to kill the thieves. I will leave Chuzhou's defense to you!"
When Lu Wendao and other gentry from Chuzhou heard this, they immediately trembled all over.
They never thought that Zhu Han would have such courage at such a young age.
How could a mere three thousand soldiers and horses dare to leave the city and fight against the enemy?
"Old man and others, I wish the deputy commander a good start! In addition to the defense of the state, we will do our best to ensure that nothing goes wrong!" Lu Wendao was doubtful in his heart, but his face showed a determined look.
"That's right, don't worry, Deputy Commander, we can leave Chuzhou to us!"
"The deputy commander just kills the Tatars, while we warm the wine and wait for the triumphant return!"
"The defeat of the Tartars is a foregone conclusion. The deputy commander is victorious!"
The gentry who had eliminated the state immediately burst into congratulations.
Nowadays, life and death are at stake. Only by defeating the Yuan army outside the city can Chuzhou truly turn the corner.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Otherwise, once the reinforcements attack outside the city is frustrated.
It will definitely be even more difficult to break the siege after the city is eliminated.
Zhu Han was too lazy to talk nonsense with them and immediately led his troops to prepare for leaving the city.
"Open the city gate!"
Following the order, the gate of Chuzhou City creaked open.
boom!
The heavy suspension bridge fell to the ground, kicking up a thick cloud of dust.
"Kill!"
With a burst of hoarse shouts!
Three thousand Chuzhou garrison troops filed out and immediately formed an array outside Chuzhou City.
At this time, on top of Chuzhou City, Lu Wendao and other Chuzhou gentry had regained their freedom.
All the rebel soldiers have already left the city and formed formation.
The defense of each section of the city wall was handed over to the gentry tribe and the strong men recruited from the state.
"Lu Shibo, Zhu Han's son has left the city. Zhuzhou belongs to us. Should we change the banner and cut off their escape route?"
One of the ex-state gentry said with a sly smile.
The other gentry in addition to the state stretched their necks to look at the situation outside the city, and at the same time looked at the gentry leader Lu Wendao.
The current war situation outside the city is like a matryoshka doll.
The 3,000 new state-expelling troops led by Zhu Han were in the innermost layer, the Yuan army of the Barbarian Hague was in the middle, and the outermost layer was Zhu Yuanzhang's army "overflowing the mountains and plains".
Anyway, judging from the current situation, the Yuan army is overwhelming in numbers.
"No, wait a moment!"
Lu Wendao frowned and said.
Most of the gentry in Chuzhou preferred a complete victory for the Yuan army. After all, there were several times the number of troops there.
They believed that as long as they dedicated the city and donated more treasures.
It will definitely make the barbarian Hague take back the order to massacre the city.
"Yes, wait a minute! If the Red Scarf Army can't hold on any longer, let's raise the flag of the imperial court again!" said another gentry from Chuzhou.
The others nodded immediately.
If the Red Turban Army has a chance of winning, they will look ugly by then.
The gentry in Chuzhou were already well prepared and were waiting to see the battle situation outside the city to make the final decision.
And at this time.
The three thousand new troops led by Zhu Han have already formed an array along the Chuzhou moat.
In order to quickly get out of the city and form an array, they only had time to carry three of the lightest three-pound cannons, and the rest of the artillery were thrown on the city wall.
"Deputy Commander, where are we going to kill?"
Chen Baodao asked while wearing armor.
Zhu Han narrowed his eyes!
Now that the Yuan army was in chaos, many of its troops were deployed to defend Zhu Yuanzhang's army on the periphery, exposing many loopholes.
However, the number of Yuan troops is still very large!
They even gathered around them, preparing to block the attack direction of Zhu Han's three thousand new troops.
"Capture the thief first! Capture the king first! We have to go straight to Hague, the barbarian, and kill him. We will definitely win a great victory!" Zhu Han pointed with his hand.
"Deputy Commander, the Tatars are heavily defended. It may be difficult for them to rush in!" Chen Baodao looked surprised.
"Yes, sir, our three thousand people are too few. The Tatars have at least tens of thousands of people to protect the barbarian Hague. The chances of winning are very slim!" Hu Yiba was also a little worried.
Zhu Han did not hesitate, his experiences over the years had made him extremely decisive.
"The Tatars have a large number of people, so we must use surprise troops! Otherwise, once they fall into the quagmire of melee, no matter how many we kill with three thousand people, we will still die in the end!" Zhu Han said quickly.
"So, I have already thought about it. I will personally lure the enemy and attract the enemy's main defense force. The two of you will lead the remaining soldiers and horses directly to the position of the Chinese army's flag in the Barbarian Hague, and use three artillery pieces to smash their
The array will definitely achieve miraculous effects!"
Zhu Han's words immediately impressed Chen Baodao and Hu Yiba.
This can be said to be very dangerous!
Zhu Han had full confidence in this. He had a set of fine steel armor on him, which was light and strong. With the swords and guns of the Yuan army, he could not hurt himself at all and could escape completely.
The Yuan army must not have expected that the rebel artillery could advance with the army and it would definitely kill them by surprise.
As the saying goes, time waits for no one. The Yuan army has already begun to form troops and prepare to kill these three thousand troops.
Under the banner of the central army of the Yuan army, the barbarian Hague also discovered the move of the Chuzhou defenders to come out in full force.
"Haha, these rebels can't sit still anymore!"
Barbarian Hague immediately ordered, while letting the Yuan army outside resist the reinforcements of "Zhu Yuanzhang", he personally took charge of the central army and directed all the ministries to attack Zhu Han's three thousand soldiers and horses who came out of the city to fight against the enemy.
"Three thousand rebels are no better than a swarm of ants, crush them to death!"
The barbarian Hague wanted to avenge his son and relieve the violence in his heart, so he immediately mobilized heavy troops.
At this moment, the rebels who had just left the city had already set up an active attack formation.
When Barbarian Hague saw this, he immediately said angrily.
"Farewell Shi Haili, please tell me, you two will lead your troops and kill all these arrogant rebels for me!"
These two generals are basically the strongest generals in the hands of Barbarian Hague.
"As you command, my lord!"
Two broad-shouldered Mongolian generals immediately led their troops and prepared to attack Zhu Han's Red Turban Army.
Suddenly, a loud sound of war drums sounded, and Barbarian Hague saw a young rebel general riding out from the gate of Chuzhou City and shouting loudly to the Yuan army.
"I am Zhu Han. Killing Tuohuan is like killing a dog!"
The rebels behind Zhu Han also shouted.
"Kill Tuo Huan, kill a dog!"
"Kill Tuo Huan, kill a dog!"
The rebels shouted loudly, and the barbarian Hague immediately fell into a rage.
Tuohuan was his beloved son, and now the enemy who killed him was right in front of him. How could the barbarian Ha Hague tolerate his arrogance?
"Kill Zhu Han for me!"
"Kill Zhu Han, get a reward of 10,000 taels! Get promoted to the third level!"
Barbarian Hague's eyes were bloodshot and he roared like a ferocious tiger.
"Kill Zhu Han!"
"Kill Zhu Han!"
Stimulated by the fierce reward, the Yuan army also let out a roar.
Zhu Han saw it from a distance and knew that his goal had been achieved.
"Chen Baodao, Hu Yiba, it's up to you!"
Zhu Hanfei got on his horse and led a rebel army to rush to the left.
In front of the left side, there is a large red scarf army reinforcement flag.
From the perspective of the Yuan army, Zhu Han was preparing to break out and escape.
Immediately, a group of Yuan soldiers shouted.
"Kill Zhu Han!"
"Stop him quickly!"
"We can't let him run away!"
Zhu Han led a small group of elite cavalry and pretended to run to the left. The Yuan army in the front tried their best to block it, and the Yuan army in the rear desperately pursued him.
"Little thief Zhu Han, I will definitely skin you alive!" Barbarian Hague roared.
He had already seen that Zhu Han was planning to lead a small group of elite troops to break out.
As for the remaining two thousand infantrymen, they will definitely be used as cannon fodder.
"kill!"
"Kill, we can't let Zhu Han escape!"
"Where did Zhu Han run away!"
All the soldiers and horses of the Yuan army were staring at Zhu Han closely.
The reward worth ten thousand taels and the temptation to upgrade to three levels in a row have made them unable to see anything except Zhu Han.
Zhu Han's purpose of attracting hatred has been achieved.
"kill!"
Zhu Han was on horseback, fighting left and right in the encirclement of the Yuan army.
Although Lu Zhongheng, the follower on the side, was young, his riding skills were very good. He was guarding Zhu Han and pulling the Yuan army back and forth.
However, the number of Yuan troops is increasing!
The circle of encirclement that Zhu Han and the others can pull around is getting smaller and smaller.
The situation... seems to be developing in a direction that is not conducive to Zhu Han.
The movement of the Chuzhou garrison out of the city to form an array caused a commotion among the Yuan army.
Although the rebel forces on the periphery led by Tang He were very powerful, their numbers were too small and they did not have an advantage at all.
They took advantage of their geographical advantages to resist the Yuan army that was rushing towards them.
Seeing the Yuan army growing in number, Tang He had already seen the possible danger and was about to order a retreat.
Suddenly, a commotion came from ahead in the direction of Chuzhou City.
The shouts of killing that filled the sky passed through the battlefield and reached Tang He's ears.
"Kill Zhu Han!"
"Don't let Zhu Han escape!"
When Tang He heard these sounds, he was shocked.
"It's broken! Did Zhu Han come out of the city to respond?"
Tang He suddenly felt 10,000 regrets in his heart.
He obviously wanted to use Zhu Yuanzhang's banner to involve the Yuan army, but he didn't really want to rush into Chuzhou to relieve the siege.
"Sir, look, it's Zhu Han's flag!"
One of the generals pointed forward.
Tang He stretched his neck and saw Zhu Han's flags clashing with each other surrounded by Yuan troops.
"Oh! It's all my fault!"
When Tang He saw this, he immediately realized that Zhu Han was in great danger.
For a group of them to achieve what they have today, most of the planning credit goes to Zhu Han.
It can be said that without Zhu Han, Tang He felt that they would not have been able to rise so quickly.
watching
Zhu Han was in danger. Tang He was filled with great regret and immediately made a desperate decision to rescue Zhu Han.
