broken!
Fang Dahong swallowed his saliva.
His mission was to sneak into the Daimyo Prefecture and establish contact with the defenders in the city.
When the time comes, attack from both inside and outside.
But he didn't expect that he was discovered by the bandits after taking just a few steps.
What he feared was not death, but the inability to complete the task assigned by Huang Degong.
It is possible to repel Li Zicheng by attacking from both inside and outside. However, it would be extremely difficult to repel Li Zicheng if we only rely on these people outside.
"I...what I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can come back to the camp with me." Fang Dahong hurriedly defended himself.
"So that's how it is!" The leading Shun army leader removed the sword from Fang Dahong's neck and stared at him for a while.
"I'll believe you for now, but get back to the camp right now. The entire army is under martial law, and no one is allowed to leave the camp at night."
"Yes, yes..." Fang Dahong responded.
Although he was skilled in martial arts, he had no chance of winning against three soldiers in full armor.
I can only go back to the camp temporarily and make plans.
Just as he turned to leave, the Shun army leader said in a loud voice: "The area is under martial law. There are not only visible and hidden sentries, but also mobile patrols. When you go back, if someone gives you an order, you can say that the Shun army is mighty and the order is to distribute land equally and exempt grain."
"Go ahead!"
Fang Dahong was stunned at first, and then he was completely confused.
What's going on?
Are the bandit sentinels all fools?
Not only did they not arrest him, they actually told him the password and the reply order.
Are they all crazy?
"Get out of here!" The Shun army leader slapped Fang Dahong on the back with his scabbard.
After Fang Dahong recovered from his shock, he did not dare to stay and hurriedly walked towards the military camp.
When he came to a small mound of earth, he lay down, then changed direction again and headed towards Daming Mansion.
Seeing Fang Dahong's disappearing back, Wang Baolin, who was already the commander of Shun's army, breathed a sigh of relief.
(If you have forgotten the name, you can review Chapter 55.)
Ever since he surrendered to the Shun Army under imperial order, his experience can only be described with one word: Shun.
During the siege of Beijing he had no opportunity to set fire.
As luck would have it, the Ming army's night attack created an opportunity for him.
The Shun army camp was in chaos after being ambushed, and they hastily organized their troops to go forward to fight.
Wang Baolin took twenty or thirty of his trusted followers and set fire during the chaos, and then expanded the fire under the pretext of putting out the fire.
Because they were always at the forefront, they were praised by Liu Fangliang when the fire was put out.
He was promoted from captain to captain in one leap!
It can be said that he has risen to prominence rapidly.
Although he was injured during the siege, he was kept in the army because of his injury and did not continue to participate in the siege.
If he hadn't been injured, he would most likely have died outside the city of Beijing.
Afterwards, he followed Liu Fangliang to prepare food and fodder, retreated to Zhending Prefecture, and then turned to attack Daming Prefecture.
Zhou Tiezhu stood beside Wang Baolin and whispered, "Isn't it too dangerous to do this? If he was sent by the higher-ups to test us, wouldn't we be exposed?"
Wang Baolin smiled faintly: "Don't be afraid! I saw this man in the camp during the day. Letting him go won't arouse suspicion. As for the password... who knows where he got it from? Anyway, I didn't tell you!"
"What's more, there are so many of us and he is only one person. Even if he was sent by the higher-ups to test us, can't our more than ten mouths be defeated by his one mouth?"
"That's right!" Zhou Tiezhu put his heart back into his stomach.
"Do you think...will there be a big noise tonight?" Zhou Tiezhu was still a little worried and asked again.
"Maybe. Tell the brothers to be careful tonight! If a fight really breaks out, it is important to save your life and avoid getting hurt by mistake." Wang Baolin whispered when he saw Fang Dahong had disappeared.
"Don't worry, we are all experienced people, we are not afraid of hot oil."
"Brother Wang, when will this kind of life end for us..."
"Shut up, everyone. If anyone hears us, we'll all be dead! If you really can't hold on, just do this and leave!"
"OK!"
"Very good!"
"Stop right there, you guys in front. That's the command!"
......
In Damingfu City, dark clouds hung over everyone's heart.
The food in the city has run out. If we don’t get supplies, we can only kill the war horses for meat.
After eating the war horses, people turned into cannibals.
The remaining people finally starved to death!
They had plenty of silver, which could buy hundreds of thousands of shi of grain on a normal day.
But now.
These silvers will soon become their burial objects.
Prince of Zhao Zhu Chang dragged in with a weak body and threw himself onto a chair with a bang.
After a while, he said leisurely: "Li... Li Xingzhong, how about surrendering?"
"What? Do you think Li Zicheng will let you go? Have you forgotten what happened to Prince Fu in Luoyang?" Li Xingzhong sat in a chair with his eyes closed, his voice flat.
Li Zicheng's siege strategy not only drained his energy and spirit, but also destroyed his hope.
"We're all going to die anyway, so being killed is better than starving to death, right? Everything looks like food to me now, guess what you look like to me?"
"Like what?"
"Like a roast goose! A roast goose this big is enough for me to eat for several days." King Zhao Zhu Chang licked his lips with a greedy look.
"Roast goose? Where is the roast goose?" As they were talking, the nine-year-old Prince Zhou Zhu Shaojiong walked in with a hot steamed bun.
There is a piece of pigeon meat in the middle of the steamed bun, which is full of fragrance.
King Zhao took a deep breath of the fragrant air and swallowed reluctantly.
