On October 21, Tongxiang County.

The flag on the top of the city hung on the flagpole like a dead snake, without a trace of wind, and the nervous but tired defenders leaned against the wall, looking listless.

The dense footsteps sounded on the stairs behind. The soldiers who were too lazy to fall were too lazy to pretend. The first Shandong guerrilla general Jiang Xuan, who walked up, looked at this scene helplessly.

Half a month has passed, Lu Tong was defeated and the Japanese pirates plundered. As the most important person in charge of Tongxiang County, Jiang Xuan was under great pressure on his shoulders.

He was transferred to Zhejiang in the 33rd year of Jiajing and led more than a thousand Shandong soldiers. Whether it is background, appearance, or achievements, he is the kind that cannot be found in the crowd. He is really unable to withstand it.

Hearing the personal soldiers behind him muttering, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but curse: "Reinforcement? What a big deal!"

I was so angry that I thought about it. There was no news about the north. But Jiang Xuan didn't expect that if Yu Dayou could come, he would have come long ago.

Regarding the south... On the day when the news of Liu Yuan's first escape caused a great defeat came, Jiang Xuan cursed without regard for his decent halberd fingers. He had long known that Liu Yuan was a waste, but he did not expect that more than a hundred Japanese pirates could easily scare him away at this point, and even disperse three thousand troops.

"Old Qi is back."

Jiang Xuan looked at him and shouted, "Don't open the city gate, find a basket to pull it up."

Before the panting scout climbed to the city, he shouted in the air: "There are reinforcements, and there are reinforcements!"

Jiang Xuan's first reaction was not to be ecstatic, but to have his legs weak... Now, I finally don't have to carry it. There are so many warehouses in the city, full of food, cloth, silk. If the Japanese pirates robbed, his head would probably not be able to be saved. If it was burned, his head would not be able to be saved...

An hour later, amid the smoke and dust, an army appeared outside the south gate of Tongxiang County. Instead, more than a dozen riders rushed to the top of the city and took the initiative to ask for a basket to pull themselves up.

"The last time I will pay homage to Duke Yaoshan."

Jiang Xuan was so excited that he was probably an inconspicuous little person at first. Now, the Zhejiang inspector Wu Baipeng is one of the three giants in the southeast to fight against the Japanese.

Although Wu Baipeng was suppressed by Hu Zongxian in the past two years, he had a great reputation in the southeast. In his early years, he had a great victory in Yangzhou. At the beginning of the year, Zong Li died in a fierce battle. He led the army north to stabilize the overall situation and waited for Hu Zongxian to summon wolves to help.

Wu Baipeng pushed away the handed water tube, took two breaths to pull up Jiang Xuan, and his personal soldiers formed a circle along the side.

"The reinforcements from Chongde County have not arrived yet?"

"Chongde County?" Jiang Xuan was confused. "I didn't receive any news. Master Zhongcheng wants to lead his army back to aid?"

Wu Baipeng frowned and changed his question, "Huating Qian Zhancai? Zhejiang guerrilla Lu Bin?"

"Lu Guerrilla sent people to ask about the neighborhood of Tongxiang County..." Jiang Xuan said happily: "Lu Guerrilla is coming to help?!"

"It should be today." Wu Baipeng turned his head and looked at the sky, "It's just noon. You open the city gate and let the army enter the city, arrange food, and release the scouts to the west and north."

"Yes, I will obey the order."

The eight hundred soldiers outside had just entered the city, and smoke and dust could be seen rising from the north. Jiang Xuan's face became more and more happy. This was Lu Bin's coming!

Although Lu Bin and himself are both guerrillas, Lu Bin is much more famous, and his father Lu Tong has just been defeated... By the way, Wu Baipeng mentioned Huating Qian Yuan just now, that is also a person who can take the blame!

Jiang Xuan was happy, but Wu Baipeng, who was beside him, changed his face and shouted: "Hurry, go west to inform Zhancai that the Japanese pirates attack Tongxiang, let him be careful!"

Unfortunately, it was too late. Jiang Xuan's personal soldiers galloped on the horse and ran into Lu Bin's forward head-on.

"Shandong Guerrilla Jiang Xuan." Qian Yuan pulled the corner of his mouth and looked at Ruan E beside him, "It is even more important to have something to like, Li Shiyan uses you, you use Jiang Xuan... all the way, mediocre people!"

There was no need for Jiang Xuan to report the news. As early as a quarter of an hour ago, the scouts sent by Lu Bin, who was more than ten miles away from Tongxiang County, had discovered the Japanese pirates, and also discovered the eye-catching "Xu" flag in the Japanese pirate brigade.

Xu Hai did not discover it in advance. He knew very well that there were no resistance in Huzhou and Jiaxing, and the government troops could only shrink in the town to defend. Although he also sent scouts,... as Japanese pirates, you can't count on how high their professional ethics are.

"It seems that someone has heard that someone in Taizhou uses this bamboo pole." Xu Hai, who was riding on the horse, narrowed his eyes and looked carefully. He had never led his troops to invade Taizhou and had never fought with the Qi family army.

"About one thousand... Kill them and then set up camp." Xu Hai waved his hand, "Let Dou Chaizi go first later."

Xu Hai led three thousand troops this time, of which 300 were real Japanese, but more than half a month passed, and many direct descendants were divided into young and strong men. The rules of the Japanese pirates were very direct. Whoever robbed them would be, whether it was property, women or men.

Now Xu Hai is still under his command of more than 3,000, but only half of them are direct descendants. He has tried a lot of effort to call him. These people have won the opportunity in Huzhou and are reluctant to come back.

But Xu Hai knew in his heart that if he wanted the young and strong to go out to sea smoothly, he had to support Tongxiang County. He had never thought about breaking the city, but just wanted to attract the attention of the official army. After all, for so long, the official army from other places might have come to help.

The remaining more than a thousand people were gathered and wandering soldiers, commonly known as cannon fodder... Once the enemy encounters, cannon fodder will come first, and once the enemy is lost, cannon fodder will stop the enemy.

"Run, one out of ten is left, fight, you have a chance to win." Qian Yuan turned his head to look at Qi Jimei, Lu Bin and others who were gathering over, "If you continue to explain, if the wolf soldiers are behind, if they abandon their weapons and flee, the wolf soldiers can be killed, and the head level is also considered military merit."

You can't run away, even if you can run away... Qian Yuan's efforts in the past two years will be wiped out. All his plans, all his ambitions, and all his will collapse and disappear in a moment, which is unbearable.

Xiaoqi once said that what she wants is not to be changed by this world, but what you want is to change this world...

In fact, Qian Yuan wanted a comfortable and peaceful life first. After being passively involved in this Japanese turmoil again and again and going to Beijing to stir up the storm, a man's ambition deep in his heart and desires surged out.

The real change begins from now on!

Qian Yuan held the reins on his hand tightly, clamped his legs, and walked forward, but he didn't notice what Ruan E and Jiang Xuan's personal soldiers were whispering.

The city walls of Tongxiang County are clearly visible. The swords and guns are raised on the top of the city, and the diagonal smoke and dust in the north gradually dissipate, revealing the true face of the Japanese pirates.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a burst of exclamation at the top of the city. Qian Yuan suddenly turned his head and looked, and the two cavalry suddenly drove out of the formation and galloped towards the gate of Tongxiang County.

The man in charge was still gray and his body was lying on the horse's back and leaning down, as if he was about to fall. Zhejiang Governor Ruan E took the lead in fleeing.

Without looking, I knew that the situation would inevitably be in chaos. Qian Yuan, who secretly cursed his teammate, heard the laughter sounding in front of the Japanese pirates, and Wu Baipeng on the city was furious.

At this moment, Qian Yuan's roar rang out loud.

"Wang Yi!"

The two cavalry had already rushed out at the same time, and caught up in more than ten breaths. The cavalry on the left leaned out, grabbed Ruan E's arm and clamped it hard under his armpit. The cavalry on the right slashed the fleeing soldiers with the back of a knife, slashing the fleeing soldiers down.

However, after a hundred breaths, the fleeing Ruan E was captured. Wang Yi, who had a gray face, directly threw Ruan E and his personal soldiers in front of the formation.

Qian Yuan ruthlessly whipped the two people who had gotten up, turned their horses' heads and shouted loudly: "Look at the Japanese pirates on the other side, no one who wants to escape can survive!"

Most of the Yiwu soldiers lined up in the front were hunched, but a few Qian family guards responded loudly.

Qian Yuan rushed past the lined formation, pointing the horse whip in his hand to a person in the formation, "Come out!"

A young man wearing soft armor and holding a spear came out.

"You are the Governor of Zhejiang, the Minister of War, and the eldest son of Hu Zongxian, the Censor of the Left Censor Hu Zongxian. Do you run away?"

Hu Guiqi knew what to do, and his whole face turned red with blood rushing. He raised his spear and shouted: "I would rather die than retreat!"

The personal soldiers around Qian Yuan spread their questions and answers loudly, and the commotion in a moment had calmed down.

Even ordinary soldiers knew about Hu Zongxian's status. Some people even privately called him "Southeast King". Hu Guiqi, the eldest son of Hu Zongxian, had a life worth more than any soldier... At least that's what ordinary soldiers thought.

Qian Yuan walked to the right, pointing the horse whip in his hand into the formation, "You are Lu Bin, the youngest son of Zhejiang Deputy General Lu Tong, do you run away?"

More people knew Lu Bin. He rushed out, his pupils were congested, and he drew his sword and he sheathed, "This battle will either win or die!"

Qian Yuan pulled out Miao knife: "Zhejiang Governor Ruan E, escape first before the battle, and his crime is unforgivable!"

Ruan E’s eyes were all protruding. You, Qian Yuan, a vain Hanlin, dared to kill me, the governor of Zhejiang in front of the battlefield. Don’t you want to pass it?

Qian Yuan turned over and dismounted, his face was as cold as frost. He slashed him without hesitation. The head of the personal soldier sent by Jiang Xuan fell and rolled away, and then he took the second stab.

Ruan E only felt a chill on his head and neck, and his brain dizzy, and immediately he knew nothing.

The repeated shouts of the Qian family guards resounded outside the city, and Xu Hai's eyes gradually became solemn, as it could be seen from the naked eye that the loosening of the formation was gradually stabilized, and a strong fighting spirit filled the sky above the official army.

"Qian Yuan..." Xu Hai licked his lips. This was a mortal enemy who had been famous for a long time but had never met.

During the Battle of Chongde two years ago, Xu Hai thought it was Yu Dayou, but later he found out that it was Qian Yuan.

In the past two years, Qian Yuan has risen to the top with his reputation as the Japanese pirates. There are two or three thousand Japanese pirates who died directly and indirectly at his hands, and Xu Hai's ears are all called out.

Qian Yuan pulled out the Miao knife and shouted: "I, Huating Qian Yuan, came from a famous family and a new Jinshi. He has never lost his life against Japanese pirates for five times!"
