"I passed my order, and no fire was allowed without my order. I would let the bandits approach and beat them hard." Liu Jun leaned against the arrow tower in the south city gate and looked at the bandits who were sneaking over through the arrow hole, with disdain on his lips.

It is better to cut one of his fingers than to hurt his ten fingers. Since this Zodiac Leopard is coming to fight against Tigerhead Castle, he will have to make him hurt this time, and the pain will make him feel powerful. If he shoots early, the thieves may retreat directly when they see that the situation is wrong. Once they retreat, Liu Jun would not dare to chase him out of the city like this. Since that is the case, let them come over and beat them hard.

More than 200 bird gunmen in each of the nine-headed bird flags have already been in the position of the enemy tower, and they are all waiting for the order with breath. On the walls on both sides are the archers and spearmen. The six tiger squat cannons in the team have been placed on the top of the city, and even a batch of thunderbolt bullets recently produced by the Firearms Floor have been shipped.

Outside the south gate, the bandits under Ma Shoucheng's troops thought the south gate was quiet because the young generals in the north city had already attacked and attracted the attention of the defenders in the fort. They were all secretly happy and carried stairs to build trenches and climbed the walls, full of excitement.

These bandits all came from Yinghuoshan District, Luzhou Prefecture, Nanzhili, and were all old bandits. They first entered Guangzhou, Henan, robbed there, and then suddenly entered Macheng, Huguang, and rushed all the way and broke through two patrol passes of Macheng. Because of their success, these people were in a strong morale at this time.

Generally speaking, to attack the city, there must be siege equipment, trenches, ladders, or even half-blocks of ships, crashes and breaking city hammers, etc.

Ma Shoucheng's camp also brought a group of craftsmen this time, including craftsmen recruited by refugees, craftsmen who were brought in when siege cities and land, and a special craftsman camp. When Ma Shouying came, he drew some of them.

However, Ma Shoucheng thought he was unprepared for attacking him, and the Tiger Head Castle was not prepared, so he had to make a feint attack plan and temporarily created a batch of ladders. There was no effort to build other equipment.

Seeing that the brothers had already stepped on more than a dozen wooden ladders on the trench and climbed under the city wall, they began to climb the wall on the cloud ladder. Ma Shoucheng's hands holding the hilt were all white due to excessive force.

After success, when the brothers leaped over to the top of the city, the tiger-headed castle fell into his hands. The dog official who killed his son wanted to cut out his heart and drink his head to pay tribute to his son.

More than two thousand thieves had almost passed the trench and crossed the sheep and horse wall. Large groups of people gathered under the ladders to climb the wall. There were too many people, but there were too few ladders, which made a large number of people lined up under each ladder.

Ergou was wearing a copper foam nailed armor, and an eight-petal bright helmet on his head. His strong figure and iron helmet were even more majestic. He was wearing a pair of iron mesh boots, carrying two double-edged battle axes in his hand, a waist knife in his waist, a double-handed sword on his back, and a tip bow and a bag of big arrows in his side.

The two axes in his hand had been extremely sharp. This was not the iron axe he chopped wood, but the steel axe made of fine iron. It was extremely sharp. The axe was cut on both sides, weighing five kilograms each. Such a heavy axe was usually held with both hands, but he held one in one hand.

Ergou had good archery skills, and could become an archer or a bird gunner. But Ergou finally chose to join the Infantry Division Killer Team as a killer.

Because of his great skills, he became the commander of the killer team. His equipment was made of waist knives and rattan cards, but Ergou prefers axes. Two axes in his hands, and it was like a windmill when dancing. In the end, Liu Jun specially rewarded him with two double-edged steel axes.

"Captain, the thief is coming up, why haven't he started fighting yet?"

A team member next to Ergou was also recruited from Taiping Township. Like Ergou, he sat on the ground with his back against the battlements, quietly waiting for the order. Relying on the battlements, he could clearly hear the sound of the ladders on the wall colliding with the wall from time to time. It was the movement of the thief climbing the wall while stepping on the ladders.

Listening to the sound becoming clearer and closer, the team members couldn't help but feel extremely nervous.

"What's the hurry? There will be the thief you chopped." Ergou licked his lips. He was not nervous or afraid of the upcoming battle, but only expectation. Although killing thieves is no longer as rewarded as Winter Dog used to kill a 20 tael of silver, killing thieves will also have rewards, points, and even upgrades.

He is now the sergeant commander, with a second-level corporal rank. This is the seventh level of the rank of the Nine-Headed Soldier, and it is also the lowest level of the sergeant commander. If he can make meritorious service this time, he will be a first-level corporal. If he can be promoted to another level, he will be a sergeant. If he is promoted to a sergeant, he will be qualified to be promoted to the team chief.

Soldiers below the sergeant need to be killed or captured for each level of promotion. Now he is the sergeant, so it will be difficult to upgrade. A second-level corporal will be promoted to a corporal, and in addition to his own head-level merit, the soldiers of this corporal must also obtain a cumulative tenth level before they can be promoted. A first-level corporal will be promoted to a sergeant is even higher, and a sergeant can serve as the team leader. Therefore, a corporal must have three corporals and a cumulative fifteenth level of death will be required to be promoted to a sergeant.

Donggou, a clan of the same village, is now the chief of the gun lifting team. His military rank is the first-level sergeant, which is the highest among the ranks of the Nine-Headed Bird 11-level soldiers. He even heard that General Lian is preparing to promote Donggou to the chief of the gun lifting team of the Artillery Division. Once it comes true, it will be amazing.

The Banner General is no longer the leader of the team. If he becomes the Banner General, he will become an official. Even if he is the lowest-ranked ninth rank, he will be a formal military officer. This is an extraordinary event in Zhangjia Village, and no one in Zhangjia Village has ever been an official. Such things will be recorded solemnly in the genealogy and will be passed down forever.

Ergou also wants to be an official, and also like Donggouzi. In the past, when he was in the village, he was the strongest in his life, with the greatest strength, the highest body, and the best arrow shot. But now, Donggouzi is about to be the chief of the flag, so he can't be the sergeant forever.

Fight, he longs to fight.

The two battle axes in their hand had been extremely sharp, and they were just waiting to drink the blood of the bandits.

"The thief has already climbed to the top of the city," Wang Qian reminded Liu Jun.

"I saw it." Liu Jun replied calmly, "Blow the trumpet, raise the lantern, start now, beat me hard."

Qi single-eyed biting a steel knife, using his hands together, and climbing up the ladder. He was a Shaanxi native, a farmer with about twenty acres of land at home, and he was considered a self-cultivated farmer. He had land, land, wife and children, and his family lived a good life. But later, the famine continued, and the disaster was extremely severe that year, and there was no harvest of materials in the field, but he was the leader of the year.

The so-called A head means that every 110 households are divided into one li, with the ten households with the largest amount of Ding as the village chiefs, and the remaining 100 households are called A head. The widowed, widowed, orphans who are unable to bear the service in each li, are in charge of the outside, which is called a terrible household. The ten village heads take turns to serve every ten years, and each year a village head leads ten A heads to serve as servants and is responsible for taking charge of one li.

Under this system, every ten years, every ten years, every ten years, and the first one of the first ones is a year. The first ones not only have to take turns to take responsibility, but the most important responsibility is to collect and deliver grain.

What made Qi Yi's most resentful in the Ming Dynasty system was the issue of food collection. He was the turn of the head of the A, but this year the famine was famine, and no one had enough food to pay. But the superiors ignored this and only stared at him, the head of the A, and asked him for the imperial grain of the ten households. If the grain was not enough, he would pay the difference between the ten households.

The officials collected all the land and houses of Qi, and in the end, before he could make up for the owed food, he sold his ten-year-old eldest daughter to finally make up for it.

The next year, the drought continued, followed by the locust plague, and the government came to collect grain again. Their appointees fled directly with their family, and several other households also fled. As a result, the official above finally put all the imperial grain tasks of their ten households on the remaining families.

Qi Duoyan had nothing to sell anymore. Even if he sold his wife and young daughter, he could not make up for the difference. In the end, he also fled with his wife and children. The days of escape were difficult, and a child died of serious illness in hunger, cold and hunger.

Later, he applied for recruitment in Shanxi, hoping to make his wife and children survive. However, he didn't have a good life to join the army. He repeatedly transferred them to guard the border and went to war, but he often owed wages. In the end, his wife and children had no rice to make a pot. In the end, his wife had to sell her flesh and food to support her children.

Qi Duyan and many of his companions finally got angry, fled, and then fled. In the end, he had to join the uprising troops in Shaanxi and Shanxi, which were already getting more and more furious at that time, just like many fleeing border troops.

Many years have passed, Qi Yiyan and many rebels have risen and floated up. His wife and children have long died, and even one of them has been blinded.

Today, Qi Duoyan is no longer the honest and responsible farmer he used to be. In his heart, he only had endless resentment towards the Zhu family dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, hating the emperor, hating the government, hating the rich and gentry who exploited the poor and the people, and also hating the officers and soldiers of the court with hawks and dogs.

Killing and blood have kept Qi Yiyan still alive in this world.

Tonight, he will use blood to pay tribute to his wife and children.

He climbed to the top of the city in one breath, and Qi Yi's one-eyed one-eyed emitted a cold light. He pressed his hands on the top of the city and jumped up, and he had already jumped up.

"Diet~"

A sudden burst of intense and high-pitched horn sounded in the quiet night sky, and then three red lanterns suddenly rose from the flagpole of the pitch-black city gate tower.

"Kill" Hearing the long-awaited trumpet, Ergou immediately jumped up. A thief just climbed to the top of the city and was shocked by Ergou's roar. While he was still stunned, Ergou had already swung his axe and jumped high, and then slashed at the thief.

The double-edged battle axe made of fine steel slashed hard on the head of the thief with only a black turban on his head, and slashed heavily, directly shattering the thief's heavenly spirit cover that could not react, splashing the red and white all over Ergou.

"First" Ergou pulled out the axe with force, then kicked the broken corpse off the city.
Chapter completed!
