Daming pirates

On the one hand, they were heavily rewarded, but on the other hand, they were fighting tooth and nail. This time, the defenders almost managed to move forward, blocking the rebels' offensive and repelling the rebels again.

Although Chen Guangfu was unwilling to give in, he launched another attack. However, when the fourth attack was launched, the morale of the rebels had dropped to the extreme. The offensive was obviously not as good as the last time. Of course, they were easily repulsed again.

At this point, Chen Guangfu watched the sun set in the west and the temperature became colder. He knew in his heart that his intention could not be achieved today, and the rebels suffered heavy casualties. It was meaningless to continue fighting, so he had to

Reluctantly, he ordered the troops to retreat and withdraw to the camp.

Seeing the rebels retreating, loud cheers rang out in Mouping County. Both soldiers and civilians and officials had tears in their eyes. This time they defended Muping County, which meant that they saved their lives. Muping County was at least short-lived.

Within this time, there will be no need for loss of life.

Everyone has a feeling of surviving a disaster. This feeling is very complicated. It is both happy and frightening, and it is a bit mixed. But most people understand that the reason why they defended Muping County today, among them Xishan Village Xiangyong can

It can be said that they were indispensable because they used the sharp muskets in their hands to kill and wound more than half of the rebels after a day of fierce fighting. It can be said that most of the rebels almost died in their hands.

If they hadn't been able to kill and injure the rebels, keep the rebels unable to raise their heads, and never provide effective cover for the rebels attacking the city, then the defenders alone would not be able to hold on today no matter what, so

After the battle was over, many people ran to get close to the rural soldiers in Xishan Village, and there were endless compliments and compliments.

Li San and his men are naturally very happy. In any case, their performance today can be said to be very good, which has earned their Xishan Village a lot of face. Looking at Ninghai Prefecture in the future, who will dare to look down on their Xishan Village?

Zhao Zhizhou even personally brought the officials to come to Li San and others to express his gratitude. In private, he sent people to go to the big houses in the city to get another sum of money, collected a thousand taels of silver, put it in a box, and sent it to them.

Give it to Li San and others as another special silver reward.

After the rebels returned to the main camp, pigs and sheep were slaughtered in the city to celebrate the victory of the defenders. The meat was served in large bowls and each was given a bowl of wine to relieve their fatigue.

Li San also lost no time in reminding Zhao Zhizhou that he should hurry up and chop off the heads before it gets dark. These heads are all credit to him. If it is too late, the rebels will take these corpses back at night and there will be no chance.

So when Zhao Zhizhou and the guards of Mouping County heard this, they immediately followed suit and sent people to sneak down along the city wall, use their knives and axes to chop them hard, then put them into large baskets, and lifted the baskets of heads up the city wall.

Before the attack, at least behead all the rebels near the city wall.

As for these heads, they will naturally be distributed afterwards. Li San waved his hand generously and said: "I'm just a countryman! What do you want these heads for? You can just divide them!"

With Li San's words, the officials and defenders in the city were even more happy. They all understood that the reason why so many rebels were killed today was mostly due to Li San and the others.

If Li San wanted these heads, he would have to give him a big chunk of them, but he didn't expect Li San to be so generous. He didn't want any of them and gave them all.

With these real rebel heads, they will be able to explain to the court in the future that this is a great victory! Since the rebels started their rebellion, the government and army in Denglai have been defeated repeatedly, and they almost lost their pants.

, it is difficult to find a fig leaf, but the battle in Mouping County made them the only bright spot after the rebels started to rebel during this period. Thinking about it, if they report to the capital, the Holy Emperor will definitely reward them.

So after this group of people thanked Li Sanqian profusely, they happily went down and started dividing the spoils.

After a night of silence, Chen Guangfu was unwilling to withdraw. The next morning, he led his troops to attack again, but was beaten back by the defenders without getting any advantage.

At this point, Chen Guangfu also felt that the rebels under his command had become unstable. If they continued to fight like this, trouble might occur, so he had no choice but to give the order in despair to evacuate Muping County and find another place to attack.

Muping County and Xishan Village have become their nightmare, a standard hard bone. Instead of chewing this hard bone here and breaking their big teeth, it is better to find some soft persimmons to pinch, so as to save these rebels from ending up like this.

, and then he would have a lot of fun if he made a farce of killing someone again!

Therefore, Chen Guangfu could only admit defeat in the end, turned around and looked at Mouping County, led his troops across Muping County, and headed towards Wendeng County.

If Muping County cannot be captured, then as long as Wendeng County is captured, Muping County will become an isolated city, and it will be isolated and helpless. We will wait until spring begins, then gather heavy troops to attack, and then it will not be too late to capture Muping County.

Moreover, after taking control of Wendeng, most of the entire Jiaodong Peninsula fell into the hands of their rebels. Even if the court did not recruit them later, they still had territory. If that didn't work, they would follow the example of the slaves and choose to stand on their own and fight with the court.

Confrontation, this is also a psychology of the current rebel soldiers, to leave a way out for themselves.

Seeing the rebels gradually retreating from Muping County and heading east, everyone in Ninghai Prefecture was happy and celebrated the victory. They quickly sent people to report the victory to Shandong and the capital, taking the opportunity to have a good fight.

.

Although Muping County was saved, the overall situation in Denglai and even northern Shandong continued to deteriorate. The original governor of Shandong, Yu Dacheng, was quickly dismissed by the court because of his slow response and poor handling. Xu Congzhi was appointed as the new governor of Shandong.

, led the army to the Denglai area to suppress.

As a result, the various officers and soldiers did not cooperate with each other, and they underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly. In the first month of the year, the rebels led by Kong Youde were defeated in one fell swoop in the Huangxian area. They lost more than 20,000 officers and soldiers. Only a few hundred officers and soldiers fled back to Laizhou City. The rest

All the officers and soldiers were defeated.

Xu Congzhi had no choice but to see the rebels chasing them to Laizhou City, and there were no available soldiers on the left and right to stop the rebels, so he could only hide in Laizhou City and defend Laizhou City with Zhu Wannian, the prefect of Laizhou, and fight to the death.

The rebels made tentative attacks on Laizhou City in the first month and February, but failed, so they first looted the surrounding areas, kidnapped a large number of people, and coerced many young men into the army to rebel with them.

In February, Zhaoyuan County was defeated. The rebels massacred the city for three days before sealing the city. More than 10,000 soldiers and civilians were massacred in Zhaoyuan County. Moreover, the rebels divided their forces and went south to attack Pingdu Prefecture, conquering Pingdu Prefecture and sweeping away most of Laizhou Prefecture.

, and even the vanguard of the rebels appeared in places such as Gaomi and Jiaozhou, conquering more than a hundred village forts, tying up a large number of people, plundering a large amount of property and food, and causing chaos in the entire Laizhou Prefecture.

Just two days after the Battle of Mouping ended at night, a small group of people appeared outside Xishan Village. After giving the password, these thirty people immediately entered Xishan Village, and no one was allowed to approach them to inquire about the situation.

Liu BuTong was asked to arrange a quiet courtyard for them. They entered the courtyard and never came out again. All food and drink expenses were brought into the courtyard.

Only Liu BuTong and Wu Shengtian were allowed to enter the courtyard. But inside the courtyard, they met this group of special forces members and brought back several strangers.

Although one of them was wearing civilian clothes, he gave off a sense of coercion. This kind of temperament was obviously developed by being in a high position for a long time. Neither Liu BuTong nor Wu Shengtian recognized him, so they talked to Te

The guys from the team asked who this person was.

When the people from the special operations team told the two of them the identity of this person, the two guys were so shocked that they almost sat on the ground. It turned out that this person was not someone else. He was actually in the midst of the Denglai Rebellion.

An important member at the center of the whirlpool is Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai.

When Sun Yuanhua was first brought to Xishan Village, he was in a very violent mood. He spent the whole day scolding the special forces personnel who brought him meals at his residence. He called these guys bloody nozzles. They all felt so angry that their stomachs ached, but he also

He didn't take care of Sun Yuanhua because of this. He still treated him very kindly and served him delicious food and drinks.

Later, out of desperation, the special forces team asked Liu BuTong to go in and persuade this guy.

When had Liu BuTong ever dealt with an official of this level? At first, he felt a little uneasy, but after sorting out his thoughts, he figured out why the Lord sent this group of special forces to kill

Sun Yuanhua stole it back.

Liu BuTong thought hard and couldn't figure out why the Lord could guess that the rebels would not kill Sun Yuanhua and would eventually let him go.

Because this group of special forces arrived just in time, just before Sun Yuanhua was released by the rebels, and there was only one small team, only twenty or thirty people. Even if Liu BuTong was killed, he would not believe it.

, the Lord will send such a small number of people to sneak into Dengzhou City controlled by the rebels to rescue Sun Yuanhua.

Moreover, after this group of people came here, they did not ask for much assistance from him. They only took away a few scouts who were familiar with the terrain and roads in Denglai area. This also shows that this group of people had no plan to enter Dengzhou City to rescue Sun Yuanhua.

Therefore, they must have received the news in advance that the rebels would release Sun Yuanhua and others, so they ran to wait for Sun Yuanhua to come to the door, and robbed Sun Yuanhua on the way.

But how they knew in advance that Sun Yuanhua would be released is really unexplainable, because they set out from the south to come here at least a month and a half ago, and there couldn't be any mistakes on the way.

At that time, Dengzhou City had not yet been captured by the rebels!

So there is only one explanation, that is, someone had anticipated this happening and made arrangements in advance, so at this juncture, they sent people here to rob Sun Yuan. Who else could this person be?

?Who else could be there besides their lord?
