A group of Zhou Zheng's subordinates talked about siege methods, conspiracy, conspiracy, and even some methods that couldn't make it to the table.
Zhou Zheng looked at it and nodded secretly, whether it was useful or not, everything was used.
Following Zhou Zheng's actions, sure enough, the people in Dengzhou City were panicking, blocking leaks everywhere, and with the cannon overhead, the outside of the city seemed to be attacking at any time. The rebels above and below the city of Dengzhou were all flustered and panic all day long.
Zhou Zheng's army was replenishing its energy and waiting for a full-scale siege in two days.
The next night, Zhou Zheng, Shangguanqing, and Cao Bianjiao were having a meal, chatting while looking at the direction of Dengzhou City.
Cao Bianjiao bit the steamed bun and said: "My lord, Chief Jin wrote a letter saying that they have basically eliminated the rebels from other places in Dengzhou Mansion and will arrive at Dengzhou Mansion on time to join us. Adults should act cautiously and don't rush to attack. city."
Zhou Zheng took a sip of water and said, "They should be afraid that I will lose, and frustrate the spirit of the officers and soldiers."
Cao Bianjiao looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "The final general thinks the same way. Shi Lang Zhu seeks stability and has been fighting steadily. He has a lot of criticism of the adults' aggressive advances. If the city is forcibly attacked the day after tomorrow, even if it is taken, I am afraid that Shi Lang Zhu will not be there. Will be happy."
Zhu Shilang, also known as Zhu Dadian, supervised Kong Youde's army, and he was assigned the rank of Minister of War.
Zhou Zheng understood what Cao Bianjiao meant, and said: "I know, I also have my cares. If tomorrow goes well, wait another year for the qualifications, you will not be able to run as a deputy general."
Cao Bianjiao was startled, and said quickly: "In the end, he is not worried about his own future, he is worried about adults."
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have my own measures."
Zhou Zheng was in the court, in fact, he was still in a state of'intolerance'. The court was full of people he had offended. Let alone squeeze in. Even if he showed this, I don't know how many people would reverse the old account and madly impeach him.
Cao Bianjiao saw that Zhou Zheng had an idea, so he stopped talking, took a sip of the soup, and suddenly said: "By the way, my lord, I heard the news that my uncle has won a great victory in Shaanxi's suppression of bandits. Shaanxi banditry has been largely eliminated. Success is just around the corner."
Zhou Zheng frowned slightly, and slowly tore the steamed bun in his hand.
The reason why Shaanxi can be put down is that Cao Wenzhao is indeed capable of eradicating dozens of insurgent bandits who ruled the king; secondly, some of these bandits have gathered in Shanxi, such as Gao Yingxiang, Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng and others in Shanxi. In the siege of the city, Governor Xuan Da could only send troops to resist, and was unable to eradicate it.
Zhou Zheng knew that the chaos in the Northwest would not be easily wiped out, on the contrary, it would get worse and worse.
Cao Bianjiao said something more and left after eating. Although they were using tactics to exhaust the enemy, they also wanted to prevent Kong Youde and others from leaving the city again.
After Cao Bianjiao left, Shangguanqing cleaned up briefly, then sat next to Zhou Zheng, looked at his profile, and whispered, "You are so eager to grab this first effort, do you have any other plans?"
Zhou Zheng looked up at the city of Dengzhou, then turned to the northeast, and said to himself: "The governor of Denglai is under the governor of Shandong. He is the fourth product and is in charge of the two prefectures of Denglai. Dengzhou Town and Dongjiang Town are all under the control of the governor of Denglai. …"
Dengzhou Town is the two provinces of Denglai; Dongjiang Town is the Korean Peninsula that Mao Wenlong used to control and the Liaodong Peninsula that has lost control.
Shangguanqing followed Zhou Zheng for many years and studied carefully before coming. Listening to Zhou Zheng's words, Qingli blinked her eyes and said, "Do you want to be governor of Denglai?"
Zhou Zheng stood up, looked at the direction of Dongjiang Town, and said, "Jianlu has always been the biggest threat to my Ming. If you don't get rid of it, I feel uneasy."
Shangguanqing stood beside him, hummed softly, and smiled.
Zhou Zheng clicked on these two sentences, and did not say more, and began to inspect the barracks.
The morale of the two armies of Zhou Zheng and Kong Youde was declining over time.
Zhou Zheng's scheduled siege time came soon. Early in the morning, Zhou Zheng's soldiers stood in battle, looking at Dengzhou City from a distance.
Kong Youde and others seemed to feel the atmosphere of the war, and soldiers stood on the city.
Geng Zhongming looked at Zhou Zheng's awe-inspiring army, and said in a puzzled way: "Does Zhou Zhengyun plan to use his 15,000 men to attack the city?"
Chen Jiucheng's thoughts were a little more careful, his expression moved slightly, and he said, "Zhu Dadian's reinforcements should not arrive until this evening. Zhou Zhengyun is now preparing to attack the city. Does it mean that Zhu Dadian will arrive early?"
When Chen Jiucheng's voice fell, everyone's expressions changed.
Kong Youde calmed down a bit and said indifferently: "There is no news for the time being. I don't rule out Zhou Zhengyun's suspicion and defend the city. I will know soon."
When everyone heard it, it was the same reason. Regardless of whether Zhu Dadian's reinforcements arrive, they can only defend the city.
Kong Youde glanced at everyone, but his heart was extremely heavy. Zhou Zheng has only 15,000 people. Unless he is mad, he will not attack. It only shows that reinforcements have come!
He looked at Chen Jiucheng calmly, and Chen Jiucheng nodded his head in a deep color.
Kong Youde then turned his gaze to the outside of the city and looked at Zhou Zhengjun's formation.
He didn't know much about Zhou Zheng. He only knew that he was the second son of Zhou Qingli, the minister of the household department, who participated in the defense of the capital and the Youtun battle last year.
Kong Youde dreamed that in case, Wan Zhou was just bluffing.
Zhou Zheng stood behind the army at this time, looking at the flags on both sides, and then at the head of Dengzhou City, and waited silently for a good time.
"Siege!"
Suddenly, Zhou Zheng waved his hand and shouted loudly.
Cao Bianjiao, He Kegang, Zhang Cunren and others took the lead and rushed towards the city of Dengzhou.
Zhou Zheng's army of 15,000 people came out, attacking Dengzhou City like a tide.
Thirty artillery fired continuously, concentrating on the city's head.
Geng Zhongming, Chen Shishi, Chen Dacheng and others shouted and screamed, running around the city.
The officers and soldiers are coming fiercely, even if they are large in number and have a strong city, they dare not take it lightly.
The artillery on Dengzhou City fired fiercely, arrows, stones, and kerosene poured down frantically.
Above the head of the city, the tragic fight began quickly, the shouting of killing moved the sky, and the sound of the handover of swords and soldiers was piercing.
Bang
With a loud noise, the huge gate of Dengzhou City was exploded, and the pungent smell of sulfur filled the inside and outside of the gate.
Kong Youde and the others on the tower were shocked and their expressions changed drastically.
"Block them for me!" Geng Zhongming roared.
The gate was blown open, and officers and soldiers could rush in.
Chen sometimes, Chen Dacheng and others immediately went downstairs and led people to block the city gate.
Cao Bianjiao, He Kegang and others took the lead, rushing into the city gate, roaring anger, encouraging morale.
Kong Youde looked at Zhou Zheng's direction behind him. Seeing that there were no reinforcements, his teeth rattled, and he said in a deep voice: "Geng Zhongming, they don't have reinforcements! Kill me back and wipe out Zhou Zhengyun!"
Geng Zhongming woke up abruptly and said loudly: "Okay!"
The rebels seemed to have reacted, their depressed momentum increased, and they began to counterattack outwards.
Zhou Zheng stood behind the army, his telescope staring at the city gate.
Shangguanqing stood beside him, glanced behind him, and whispered, "It's time to come."
Shangguan's voiceless voice fell, and a flag was erected from a distance.
