Thousands of miles away from Chang'an, in the cold and frozen city of Caizhou (now Runan City, Henan Province), there were already the sound of killing and fireworks rolling.

After a night of thin snow, it was soon trampled into sludge among countless running steps, and then quickly frozen in the cold wind; then it was shattered by the rushing steps, or was washed away by the warm corpses and blood flowing down, and temporarily melted...

Under the flag of the yellow bird pattern, a military general wearing one-piece foam nailed leather armor rushed around the streets near the city gate, while waving his flesh-filled nails and shouting:

"I am Sula, the lucky Sula, who dares to stop me..."

However, before he finished speaking, a wave of aggressive enemy soldiers suddenly broke out at the intersection of the street, cutting and scattering his attack on the spot. Then many figures of bent bows and arrows appeared on the roof and walls. A few bangs sounded and the scattered arrows were filled with arrows, which drowned the Duji soldiers who had nowhere to dodge and hide in the relatively narrow and cramped streets, along with some of the melee Caizhou soldiers, together with the dense clusters of white arrow feathers.

Although there were only more than a hundred Duji army who were actually killed and killed during this period, the tragic situation of stacking and piled up in the streets in an instant and blood flowed like small ditches. The morale and fighting spirit of Duji soldiers who followed up were greatly damaged and weakened. They were immediately pushed back by the surviving Caizhou soldiers and threw more bodies away.

Zhu Laosan, who was already standing at the north gate of Ruyang City, was also looking and watching the scene of war and fighting in the sky with a blank expression on his face and staring blankly with a long tube mirror not far away; the places with smoke and dust all represented the obstacles and encounters that the troops and horses invaded the city were in the corresponding paths and streets.

The place where the battle was in full swing was only more than a hundred steps away from his central army banner, which was the distance that the flying arrows could reach. Therefore, the generals around him had persuaded and tested him more than once, and then moved to the side of the city; but he refused.

Although they had already fought outside the city, they had two rounds of attacks and attacked the foreign aids of the Caizhou defenders, and drove away as the defeated soldiers fled; they were able to successfully break through the old nest of the Caizhou army. However, the subsequent battle in Caizhou City Square made the army, who thought the enemy was over and a little relieved, once again felt the so-called feeling of fighting everywhere.

Because this is the old nest and hometown of Caizhou Army, almost all those living in the city are related to Qin Zongquan and his troops. They have a lot of relationships with Qin Zongquan and his subordinates. They have benefited the most and are the most hard-core supporters and relatives on weekdays. Therefore, under the natural fear of revenge and massacre of outsiders, every household can be said to have seized the guys and participated in the desperate resistance.

The land of Caizhou itself is a place in the heart of Huaixi, which is rich in (disaster year) thieves and (rising year) elite soldiers. Almost every household has a knife, bow and drum board for "making a living" and self-defense; and Caizhou itself is a natural and important town in Huaixi, which is enriched with tens of thousands of people. Therefore, once the young and strong are mobilized to defend, it is easy to form corresponding local advantages and strong resistance in various cities.

Therefore, when Zhu Laosan saw the volunteer Yuhou Sula, the leader flag under his command, and as the men who soared into most of the street, they were submerged in the arrow feathers that were shooting in the ambush of Caizhou soldiers and the subsequent recoil, he still couldn't help but squeeze the whip handle in his hand. The broken stubble pierced his palm and lowered the blood beads but he was unaware of it.

"Leave it behind, and let me..."

At this time, as one of the six capitals of the old camp of the capital, the Changjiandudu Head, known as "Sword and Spear", the Changshe of Yingzhou; Wang Shizhong, a native of Changshe of Xiaoxian (cavalry), chased Yundu Head, and Deng Jiyun, a native of Xiayi, Songzhou, who was also called "Zhufenglang". He also clasped his fists and asked for his orders:

"It's not time yet."

Zhu Laosan took a deep breath before spitting out these words.

Then his eyes turned secretly to one of the generals around him. It was Wang Wu who had returned from his brother's training under the command of the Southern brother. It was also one of the two new divisions that he had spent a lot of effort to create and train. He was specially equipped to practice firearm formation battles and was also the coach.

You should know that when he was outside Xunyang City, Jiangzhou, as a way out and a backup plan in a sense, he temporarily decided to follow his second brother Zhu Cun, Hu Zhen, Xu Tang, Li Hui, Wang Wu and others; but most of them returned to their own troops after a long or short period of time. Only Wang Wu, a native of Qingzhou who was born in a primary school, insisted on completing more than a year of practice in the training institute, and participated in and experienced several Taiping Army-related wars under Zhu Cun;

Finally, he returned to Zhu Laosan's command with a lot of knowledge and experience of the Taiping Army's tactics, practice rules and training orders more than half a year ago. After returning from the pass, he made his mark in the subsequent suppression and annexation operations against the other rebels around Dujidao. Later, he became a coach in the army at the request and participated in the first-hand training and training of Feihuangdu.

Not long ago, it was this firearm, crossbow and swords and guns that were both fired like rain in front of the formation, and the Baishandu, composed of another mule and horse, who were fully cooperated with each other; he was relatively relaxed to resist the crowd with few people and attack the momentum of pointing out the surface, and defeated the troops from many places in Caizhou, and rushed into the city of Ruyang with another sport.

Therefore, in a sense, compared to Paoshandu, which had already damaged a lot of money when he was in the game and was able to defeat the enemy in his spare time, Feihuangdu, who was only in his spare time, is now the most intact new force under his command. But at this moment, Zhu Laosan hesitated a little.

Could it be that he really wanted to build this firearms army that was unlimited and heavily invested, and this one-piece firearms army was invested in the battle in Qingcheng? You should know that although this flying horse only listed more than 800 people, it formed a formation with light wooden poles it carried in the battle formation, easily blocking the enemy's full-strength offensive several times. Its own damage was only a small amount.

Moreover, according to Wang Wu's previous statement, as long as he brought these soldiers who had been on the formation and blood, he could lead two or three new players to the coaching method of a veteran to easily expand the firearm master several times. However, in the eyes of everyone's expectation, Zhu Laosan sighed heavily and said:

"Wang (Wu) is a self-constructed! You will lead the remnants of the two battalions of Shengyong to enter the city to respond and protect the war in the West City!"

"Get orders!"

Wang Wu responded without hesitation, and then bowed and said:

"Please stay at our department and use all kinds of firearms..."

"Accurate. Besides, what do you need? Just go to the Central Military Commission to ask for it!"

Zhu Lao Sanxin said:

With Wang Wu's order, Feihuangdu, which was crossing various firearms under the banner, hurriedly entered the battlefield in the west of the city. Zhu Laosan refused to bandage others and changed hands and held up the long mirror, and couldn't wait to watch the battle situation in the west of the city again; however, he found that a new change had taken place in the moment of issuing orders.

But behind the Caizhou soldiers, more than a dozen survivors who had climbed up from the pile of corpses suddenly caught them off guard. The leader was a man who had almost been dyed with blood, but was frozen hard by the weather on his robe armor. The general who seemed particularly terrifying was waving a long knife and chopping it over one after another, knocking down two Caizhou soldiers and several strong men who were cleaning the scene, shouting loudly:

"I am the lucky Sula. Since the dog thief in Caizhou has not killed me, the death period will come."

The surviving Zhangqi Yuhou Sula shouted so wildly, chasing and chopping the powerful men in the city who were running all over the ground, but the archers on the wall were unable to look at each other inside and outside, and they could not shoot him. They also forced the Caizhou soldiers who were gathering again at the intersection of the street to distribute their hands and turn around to surround them.

Seeing Sula and others being surrounded by front and back again, and were killed on the ground while resisting. At this time, the army lineup of Dujiji, who was approaching again with the end of the street, was suddenly thrown by many smoked fire jars from behind. And the archers who were squatting and alert on the wall seemed to have suddenly fallen into some way of being immobilized, and they all fell down in screams and screams.........

After this small-scale new force was put into the city battlefield, it seemed to be the last straw to break and pry out the situation in the city, and soon it brought Zhu Laosan a series of chain reaction-like good news.

"Reported, Feihuangdu and his troops have been lifted out of the city and attacked westward to the outside of Zicheng..."

"Reported, Feihuangdu has already killed the Caizhou general Zhang Yang at the west gate of Zicheng..."

"Reported that Paoshandu defeated the East Gate Tower and captured the enemy Ruyang soldiers and horse envoy Qin Xian..."

"Reported that someone in Zicheng opened the door and fled south. The mule and horse team, which were suspected to be relatives of the Qin family, was chasing Yun around the city and chasing him with all his might."

It was not until this moment that Zhu Laosan breathed a lot of relief, stretched out his palm that had already solidified blood clots and allowed others to bandage it. Since the Qin family had already begun to escape, it also means that the overall situation of Caizhou Prefecture City and Ruyang City, which was once a major town in Huaixi, had been decided, and the huge Caizhou area was only left to continue to sweep (plunder) and consolidate the results of the battle, preparing to fight against Qin Zongquan's follow-up matters for returning to the army.
