A place separated from Bao Lengze's house was a hut, and Li Dingguo was standing in a corner observing the enemy situation.

On the wall of a blue brick courtyard that is nearly two people tall in a house opposite, two archers show their heads from time to time and look around. A small team of Ming soldiers are scattered around, hiding behind various obstacles to avoid being shot by bows and arrows.

Just when the Ming army broke into Bao Lengze's house and killed him, the Ming army here encountered the stubborn resistance of this family of Jiannu. One spearman was shot dead by Jiannu's bow and arrow, and the other was dragged aside by his companions after being shot in the thigh.

Because the door opposite was closed, it is impossible to know how many Jiannu were in this family. In addition, the number of Ming soldiers in this team is too small, Li Dingguo ordered the nearby Ming army to come over and prepare to launch a strong attack on the house.

This family is what the wife Bao Lengze mentioned in the Noelbu family.

Noelbu, who is also a yellow flag with Bao Leng, was also recruited this time. He is different from Bao Leng, who is introverted and does not like to deal with others. Noelbu is generous in character and likes to make friends, and has a good relationship with the people of the same village banner.

Because he was about to leave the island the next day, today he invited several other male hosts from the same flag in the village to come to his house to drink and say goodbye. As a result, before the banquet began, he learned that Ming Jun had entered Zhuangzi.

Noelbu's family had many young and old people, and it was too late to run away. He immediately ordered the gate to be closed and then distributed the weapons that were about to take to the expedition to several other bannermen. He and another bannerman each carried ladders and bows and arrows on both sides of the courtyard walls, and seized the opportunity to shoot down two Ming soldiers.

After a while, dozens of soldiers arrived from several alleys one after another.

Li Dingguo ordered the six archers to find their own positions and suppress the two Jiannu archers on the wall. One grenadier connected three thunder-thunder fuses together to wait for the opportunity. The other grenadier also hid in a corner and waited for the order. In addition to the gunner, the sword and shield master and the spearman were also ready to fight.

With Li Dingguo's order, six archers flashed out of their respective hiding places and began to suppress the two people on the wall. One grenade held three thunders and ran quickly towards the closed gate. Another tall and strong grenade threw the ignited thunder into the yard through the wall.

Nolbu and another archer did not dare to get up under the whistling long arrows. They could only huddle on the ladder and counted silently how many rounds the Ming army had shot, ready to fight back at any time.

After a loud "boom", the howls in the yard floated up with smoke and dust, followed by another loud thunderous sound. Another grenade ignited the fuse and turned around and ran back. After a few breaths, the gate of the Nolbu family and the gatehouse collapsed in the loud noise. The choking smoke and dust would spread, covering half of the alley.

The thunder that was thrown into the yard exploded not far behind Nolbu. A piece of porcelain that flew rapidly into Nolbu's left forearm was embedded in Nolbu's left forearm. Under severe pain, Nolbu's longbow fell to the ground.

Norbu endured the severe pain and turned around and jumped down the ladder, just stepping on a bloody broken arm. A burst of crying sound came. Norbu looked through the gradually dissipating dust smoke. A few steps away, a child covered his bloody cheeks and cried endlessly. Not far from him, another boy was lying on the ground, with a large stream of blood flowing out from under him.

"Lai Zhu took Khenbu and other families to the backyard to Sak, Urge is ready to welcome the enemy Ye Chenming people to come in and shoot from the side."

Amid a series of commands, while the Ming army had not yet attacked, Lai Zhu held a knife and called the women and children to retreat from the side door of the yard to the backyard.

Nolbu pulled out the long knife from his waist and moved closer to the gate of the courtyard with several others, preparing to fight with the Ming army. Ye Chen, who was holding the bow, got a few stirrups up and down the ladder, and pointed the arrow sideways and pointed at the damaged gate.

At this time, the dust and smoke after the explosion of the thunder had dissipated, and four Ming army gunmen appeared at the gate.

Due to the shooting angle issue, Ye Chen could not see the Ming army gunner standing outside the gate, so he could only watch Sak and Urge screaming and falling to the ground in the sound of the bean-like gun.

Nolbu roared and rushed forward with a knife in his right hand. The Ming army's gunman had turned around and retreated. Four spears more than meter long appeared in Nolbu's sight. As the four spearmen struggled to stab forward, four spears stabbed different parts of Nolbu's body together.

Nolbu's mouth wide open, his eyes full of horror, blood and flesh poured out of his mouth, and his body fell softly to the ground like an empty cloth bag.

Immediately afterwards, two swords and shields held shields to protect the flanks and rushed into the yard with broken bricks and rotten tiles. The long arrow shot by Ye Chen was blocked by the shield. He quickly drew his bow and shot it, hitting the calf of a shield player. The Ming army screamed and fell to the ground. The shield in his hand fell to one side. Ye Chen's third arrow flew quickly, piercing the Ming army, who had lost the shield to cover the shield, through the neck of the Ming army.

Another sword and shield roared, slapped his body and rushed towards Ye Chen with a shield. Several spearmen rushed into the hospital immediately.

A dozen steps were in the blink of an eye. Although Ye Chen shot the fourth arrow, he was blocked by the shield. The shield player rushed to him.

Ye Chen smashed the longbow out casually, and then a tiger pounced suddenly jumped down from the ladder, knocking the shield hand to the ground. The two of them were entangled in an instant.

Ye Chen, who quickly gained the upper hand, held the opponent tightly with his waist and legs, reached out to pick up the long sword that Ming army fell and was about to stab it. Suddenly, his arm holding the knife was soft and hanging down, and a long spear penetrated directly from the back of his neck, and the bloody tip of the spear stretched out from the underside of his jaw.

The Ming army began to search the entire house and soon captured the elderly, weak, women and children in the backyard. The flag manager named Lai Zhu was killed on the spot.

Around the Si hour, the search and suppression operations of the entire village were all over. Chen Zhi, the Qiang General, had led the remaining 400 people, led by the Han people who were familiar with the terrain, and the aftermath of the entire village was fully handed over to Li Dingguo to handle it.

After confirming that all the adult Jiannu Banners in the village had been killed in battle and their families were detained, Li Dingguo ordered Feng An to lead the soldiers to pass them down from house to house, so that all the young Han people could gather together. Under the surveillance of the Ming soldiers, the food and supplies from the Eight Banners in the village were pulled to the courtyard of the village, weighed them and distributed them according to the heads.

This move was a common method he used in the rebel army in the original rebel army, with the purpose of quickly stabilizing and winning people's hearts so that the situation can stabilize as soon as possible.

Of course, this kind of distribution is also relatively extensive, and it is impossible to achieve true fairness and justice. For example, Feng An, who stood up first, will definitely receive more care and rewards than others. This is also a matter of course in the question, and no one will raise objections to this.

Regarding the handling of the captured couples of bannermen, women and children, after obtaining the consent of Feng An and several other Han people with some prestige among the villagers, Li Dingguo decided to reverse their identities and become servants of several Han families. As for how the Manchus and Han families get along with each other in the future, it is their own business.

In addition to the food, grass, cattle, sheep, carriages, horses and other daily necessities will be distributed to villagers, the valuable items such as gold, silver, jade and other goods found in the homes of the bannermen are packed and put in the carriage and taken away.

After the war on the island is over, these property will be transported back to the ship and distributed to the soldiers according to their military merits.

After confirming that the government army would conquer the entire Jianzhou and that the court would send people to the island to manage it later, Feng An and the villagers watched the government army leave with mixed feelings.
