The Ming Dynasty's Spokesperson

In the original history, the insiders in the city took the initiative to contact the government troops outside the city with arrow letters, but after the uprising, they did not receive support from the government troops and were eventually killed by the rebels.

The main reason may be that the government troops were caught off guard by the sudden incident, or that the government troops were suspicious and afraid of being deceived, or that the generals outside the city lost their fighting spirit and gave up.

Lin Tailai personally supervised the battle and asked Li Rusong to be prepared to avoid the above situation.

Moreover, throwing documents into the city is equivalent to turning from passive to active.

With some preparation, it is better to take the initiative to guide those who want to be insiders in the city than to deal with them hastily when the incident comes.

After arriving at the West Camp and throwing a large number of arrow letters into the city, Lin Tailai ordered the entire camp to prepare for the attack.

Although Li Xu, the general officer of the West Camp, psychologically surrendered to Lin Jianjun, his attitude towards combat was still a bit negative. The previous siege was like punching in to work.

Anyway, he could not be the main general, so he either worked for Ma Gui or Li Rusong, there was no difference!

Lin Tailai did not blame Li Xu, but just ordered his followers to bring in the newly made furniture.

Immediately, the left and right guardian brothers appeared with a few servants, carrying a large box.

The box was opened in front of Li Xu, and inside was a shiny new iron armor, as well as an iron helmet with armor, arm armor, etc.

"Take a look at this armor?" Lin Tailai said to Li Xu.

Li Xu stared at the armor in the box for a few times, and then praised from the bottom of his heart: "Good armor!"

This is a full-body armor, the craftsmanship is so good that it can be seen with the naked eye. The shape of the armor pieces connected together is like plum blossoms, which is both practical and gorgeous.

As a military general, he has an instinctive yearning for the best weapons and armor.

So Li Xu really liked the armor in the box after taking a few glances, and began to imagine wearing this armor to show off.

Just then, I heard Lin Jianjun say, "If you like it, you can try it on."

So Li Xu directly touched the thickness of the armor with his hands, and his face changed slightly.

Then he picked it up casually with both hands, and his face changed again!

"How heavy is this armor?" Li Xu turned to Lin Tailai and asked.

Lin Tailai said lightly, "80 kilograms."

Li Xu's face fell, and he said distressedly, "Thank you for the gift, but I can't wear 80 kilograms of armor, so I can only put it on display as a craft."

Nowadays, the general standard heavy armor is only more than 40 kilograms, and 80 kilograms of heavy armor is really unbearable.

Lin Tailai said in surprise, "What are you thinking? Who said it was given to you?

This armor was made by this Jianjun for his own use, just for you to see, at most try it on."

Li Xu: "."

Fuck! Jianjun Lin is not a human being, really not a human being!

Since this armor is not given to me, why do I have to appreciate it carefully?

Besides, you are a military supervisor, and you don't have to charge into battle yourself. Wearing such gorgeous heavy armor is a waste of resources!

Lin Tailai picked up the helmet and put it on, and most of his face was covered by the armor.

Then he opened his hands and said to his left and right: "Put on the armor for me!"

Li Xu wanted to complain that you, a civil official, are more powerful than a general, as you can wear 80 kilograms of heavy armor.

But before he could say it, Li Xu suddenly thought of something and was shocked.

Then he hurried forward and asked: "Why is Lin Jianjun wearing armor?"

Lin Tailai replied calmly: "If there is really an insider in the city, after agreeing to attack the city, I will lead the way and climb the city first!

Wearing armor is just to prepare early. If the opportunity for war appears, I will attack immediately!"

Li Xu's legs softened, and he almost wanted to kneel on the ground and hug Lin Tailai's thighs, in a physical sense.

Let Lin Tailai go to attack the city, how dare he? If something goes wrong, there is no way to save it!

If Jiuyuan Xiangrui is inexplicably killed in the siege, all the generals on the West Camp side will not escape the emperor's wrath!

When he counterattacked with Lin Jianjun before, he did not see Lin Jianjun like to charge into battle in the two great victories.

Why did he go crazy today and think about climbing the city?

"Absolutely not!" Li Xu shouted, "The siege will be brave, and the military supervisor will just command from behind!"

At this time, Lin Tailai smiled confidently while putting on his arm armor: "General Li, you can rest assured. This military supervisor and his servants are best at city battles and street battles!

We have been through hundreds of battles for several years and are invincible! Now it is none other than me to climb the city and defeat the enemy!"

Li Xu wanted to ask, Ma Gui and Li Rusong organized the siege for more than 20 days before and after, and you, the military supervisor, did not go into battle in person.

He persuaded Lin Jianjun for a long time, but still failed to persuade him.

Li Xu thought that he knew Lin Jianjun very well, but today he found that Lin Jianjun was still a mysterious figure.

He really couldn't understand why Lin Jianjun suddenly became so reckless.

After the arrow book was thrown into the city today, there was no movement in the city.

But Lin Jianjun never took off his armor and was still on high alert.

Until the next day, near dusk, an arrow book was suddenly shot out from the top of the city.

The official army who had been monitoring the movement picked up the arrow book and quickly presented it to Lin Jianjun.

After reading the content, Lin Tailai told Li Xu: "Commander Zhao Chengxian, centurion Yao Qin and others in the city have agreed to set fire tonight as a signal, and attack the west gate from inside and outside!"

At this time, Lin Tailai knew that his plan was more than half done!

There really were people in the city who wanted to be an insider, and it was really agreed to be on the west gate! This great achievement must be picked up!

Li Xu was most worried about the safety of Lin Jianjun, and he advised again:

"I'm afraid there's a trick to lure our army to the city and then ambush. You can send other soldiers to test it. Why should the military supervisor take the risk himself?"

Lin Tailai snorted coldly: "This is the only chance! If I don't go up, who else will fight bravely?

If I go to the battle myself, who else dares not to fight bravely?"

This is indeed the truth. If Lin Tailai takes the lead and is lost because of the subsequent hesitation, I'm afraid all the generals will be in trouble.

Li Xu saw that he couldn't stop it, so he could only organize an elite death squad with worry.

Lin Tailai closed his eyes and rested for the last rest.

What Li Xu was worried about was not wrong. There was indeed a possibility that the enemy army cheated.

But as long as he let Lin Tailai climb the top of the city, would there be any difference whether it was cheating or not?

The most difficult thing for the first climber is to defend the position on the top of the city with fewer people against more people, but this was his daily life for Lin Tai.

Lin Tailai really cherishes his life, but he still dares to take a gamble if the risk is controllable.

In a field battle, he would not take the risk of rushing into thousands of people.

But in a relatively narrow environment like the top of the city, he can try to fight ten or a hundred with one man.

There is also an impulse in his heart, the impulse of a man to fight the enemy and show his bravery.

For thousands of years, no matter how the war technology evolves and adjusts, as long as there is a siege, "the first to climb the city will get the first merit" is an iron rule.

The first person to climb and defend the city will definitely be regarded as the strongest person in the army.

Although Lin Tailai is already an old official, he is not yet in his seventies or eighties.

As a martial arts champion, he is itching to fight after watching for so many days. If he doesn't fight again, he will have no chance to do it himself.

After dark, the government troops quietly left the camp under the cover of night and waited outside the city.

At the second watch, suddenly there were fires in the northwest and southwest towers, which were extremely eye-catching in the night sky.

Here it comes! Lin Tailai put on his helmet and stood up.

Not long after, another scout came to report that someone was holding a torch and waving it on the city wall not far from the west gate.

In order to save as much energy as possible, Lin Tailai got on his horse and walked the last section of the road.

After many sieges, the government troops were already familiar with the nearby terrain. Although they worked in the dark, they quickly set up the ladder.

There was no resistance on this section of the city wall. It was probably the group of officers and soldiers who were responsible for guarding this line of defense.

With no one making trouble, Lin Tailai, wearing 80 kilograms of heavy armor, climbed up steadily and stood on the top of the city.

Under normal circumstances, the first person to climb the city must be the strongest person in the army, and must be covered with heavy armor.

But when the rebels saw Lin Tailai's figure, they were still secretly surprised.

They seemed to see a giant bear covered with iron armor appearing on the top of the city, even with a mask on his face, which was simply a human-shaped fortress.

Lin Tailai did not say hello, but just drew his weapon, alertly moved forward a few steps, and expanded the defense area.

Behind Lin Tailai, others climbed up the city walls, holding shields and forming battle arrays.

Lin Tailai also changed his weapon to a long weapon, a nine-foot iron spear.

Although an inch longer is an inch stronger, in a close-range melee in a narrow environment, a nine-foot iron spear is more useful than a wooden spear of several feet, and the iron spear can also be used as an iron rod.

After initially gaining a firm foothold on the city wall, Lin Tailai asked the group of rebels, "Who are you?"

A military officer replied, "I am Yao Qin, the centurion who was held hostage by the thieves."

Lin Tailai nodded and answered concisely, "I am Lin Tailai, the Imperial Academy's Attendant Reader, the Counselor of Shaanxi's Anti-Rebellion Military Affairs, and the Military Supervisor."

There are too many official positions, so in order to save time, I can only report them briefly.

Yao Baihu: "."

Is this a Hanlin? Is this a military supervisor? The first one to climb the city wall in person?

Does the identity you reported match your image and behavior?

He expected that there might be a general climbing the city wall, but he didn't expect it to be such a big guy.

Lin Tailai, whose expression was covered by the mask, scolded impatiently: "Why are you in a daze at this time?

Report the current situation quickly! Where is the other Zhao Chengxian?"

Yao Baihu was still shocked and answered subconsciously: "After Commander Zhao set fire to the southwest tower, he took his subordinates to attack the west gate first."

At this moment, the movement of the city wall here was finally discovered.

The first wave of hundreds of rebels rushed over from the horse road, trying to recapture this section of the city wall and completely eliminate the government troops climbing the city wall.

The real test came, Lin Tailai took a deep breath and shouted:

"Defend the city wall, kill the thieves, and then support the west gate!"

Everyday group fights are restrained, but today I can finally let go and fight to my heart's content!
