Chapter 2074 Gui Zijuan People’s hearts are treacherous and unpredictable.
Seeing the change in attitude of this group of people, Wang Chengwu laughed, which was in line with his understanding.
Everyone knows that the most important thing for a warrior is to have soldiers in his hands. Even though he is a rebel army, after a few months, everyone has understood this truth.
Now that the other party has actually given such a condition, people can't help but feel excited.
"To obtain such a favorable condition, the problem before us is to deal with the people who wave the sky flag! If we cannot do this, everything will be a fantasy!" Wang Chengwu's tone suddenly became passionate, "This is what the noble man gave us The conditions proposed, or it can be said that we are working hard to submit the certificate of submission to the government!"
The whole audience was silent, yes, this is a declaration of surrender, and it is to fight for one's own life, to fight for this opportunity.
Wang Chengwu's face became distorted and even ferocious due to excitement, his eyes were blazing, and he glared at everyone: "This opportunity may only be once. Maybe all of us here will die in this battle, including me, but this But it is our only chance to change our future destiny. We may die, but our children and grandchildren may benefit from it. I also want to make an announcement here, no matter who among us dies in battle, his children will Those of us who survive are responsible for raising them, and we must fight for their father's share of things. If we violate this promise, we will be punished by heaven and earth, and we will never be reincarnated!"
This promise actually announced his decision on behalf of everyone present, but now everyone has no resistance and is even full of enthusiasm. Wang Chengwu's promise has at least dispelled many people's worries, that is, even if they Even if they die in battle, their children will also be rewarded for this big gamble. There is no reason for them not to follow this gamble!

June twenty-first.
"Wang Ermazi finally agreed?" Yao Yongzhong nodded with satisfaction: "If we continue to refuse to work together, when the people from Baiyun Mountain, Boyan Village, and Baitang Village arrive, I'm afraid their efforts will be of no use. If you are self-aware, Wang Ermazi is still aware of current affairs. Well, we will launch an attack from tomorrow according to the plan we agreed on. I will go and say hello to the underground tiger and ask him to cooperate with Wang Ermazi..."
The lean scribe standing next to Yao Yongzhong asked with some surprise: "Why did Wang Erpazi become so upright all of a sudden? Didn't he keep pushing back and finding various excuses?"
"The situation is different. I guess he has also heard the news that Baiyun Mountain and Baitang Village in Boyan Village are heading south. This guy's ears are quite good. In addition, I also gave in and promised him that after he enters the city, Zhu's grain All the food from the business belongs to him, which is an extra compensation for him coming all the way. Also, didn’t he fall in love with the two daughters of the Zeng family, so I agreed and let him handle it..."
Yao Yongzhong’s words relieved the thin scribe a little.
Wang Ermazi is lustful and greedy for money, which is well known to the surrounding rebels. However, although these two conditions are not trivial, they do damage the reputation of Wailing the Sky Flag. If it were not forced by the two troops from the north who are rushing towards the starry night, The boss would not make such a concession.
This is also a forced choice.
If we can't capture Wubao City before the people from Boyan Village, Baitang Village and Baiyun Mountain arrive, the situation will be passive.
That's fine on the Baiyun Mountain side, but the men and horses in Boyan Village and Baitang Village are very powerful, only slightly stronger than our own men and horses, and I heard that the leader of Boyan Village, Situ Hengshan, has always been domineering, and most of his men and horses are From the Yulin army, there are many sergeants who are skilled in bows and horses and are accustomed to fighting. I am afraid that the dominance will fall into the hands of the opponent. It is not easy for the master to create such a situation. How can he let outsiders pick up such a situation? Falling peach?
Therefore, the expedient measure is to immediately unite with Wang Ermazi and Dihuhu, use the internal support in the city, and immediately capture Wubao City. This is nothing more than a concession in the distribution of spoils. If Wubao City is captured, it will immediately attract With more disaster victims coming to vote, our own strength can be further strengthened, and if we control Wubao City, we no longer need to worry about being overpowered by the people from Boyan Village and Baitang Village. The initiative lies with our own side, and many things in the future will have to be arranged easily. many.
It is impossible to capture Wubao City with one's own strength alone. Both the Leaping Stream Tiger and the Digging Tiger must be mobilized, so that they can capture Wubao City in one go. This is what makes Yao Yongzhong most anxious. Now it's finally settled.
Yao Yongzhong can tolerate Wang Ermazi's greed, and he still needs to use this force now, and even needs to rely on him for a period of time after conquering the county. Wang Ermazi is greedy for money and lust, but he has to admit that this guy has a hand, and he has to rely on him for a period of time after conquering the county. The soldiers are under tight control and are quite popular. He also needs to rely on them to fight against the troops in Boyan Village and Baitang Village.
As for the future, Yao Yongzhong believes that he can find opportunities to deal with Wang Ermazi, but now he still has to win over him.
"Master, the siege will begin tomorrow. Shouldn't our preparations be in place?" The thin scribe was still a little worried, because Wang Ermazi's attitude was too suspicious before, and now he suddenly turned around, even if he gave the opponent There were some promises, but he was still a little uneasy, "How can we cooperate with Wang Ermazi and Dihuhu?"
"Well, although Wang Ermazi agreed wholeheartedly, I'm still worried that this guy will play tricks on us and use feints to fool us, just waiting to reap the rewards in the end, so I plan to lead 300 people to help out, and also to monitor and supervise the battle. Under my nose, if this guy is doing tricks, don't blame me for falling out when I enter the city in the future." Yao Yongzhong said viciously.
"If this is not the case, how can we make him obey orders? Another person may not be able to suppress this guy." Yao Yongzhong said solemnly.
"But if you go to him, won't it be dangerous?" the thin scribe hesitated.
"Haha, Wakamatsu, what danger do you think there will be? I will take three hundred people there. Besides, I am only supervising the formation, and I am not going to seize his military power and fight with him. The worst he can do is fight against me. Do I still want to fight against him? What's wrong with me? After all, we are still on the same road. Only by taking Wubao City can we have a way out. Wang Er Mazi will understand this, otherwise he wouldn't have come down from Qingcaowu to Wubao City. .”
Yao Yongzhong laughed loudly. He felt that his staff seemed to have a conspiracy theory mentality. He was not at ease with anyone and looked suspicious to everyone.
"Besides, there is a group of Earth-Drilling Tigers nearby. I have already said hello to the Earth-Drilling Tigers. He should understand what I mean. As long as he helps me keep an eye on Wang Er Mazi, I won't let him enter the city in the future. He will be treated badly."
The thin scribe felt a little more at ease after hearing this.
Three hundred people is indeed a bit small, but if there are seven or eight hundred people from the Earth-Drilling Tigers helping out, then they will be safe. The Earth-Drilling Tigers and their gang can't get along with Wang Ermazi, otherwise the underground tigers will be able to help out. Dihu wouldn't have come to contact him early.
"That being the case, the head master should be more careful. I always feel that it is a bit suspicious that Wang Ermazi suddenly agreed to our proposal so readily this time. He is not someone who gives in easily..." The thin scribe couldn't help but remind him. One sentence.
"Don't worry, Ruomatsu. I know Wang Ermazi's temperament. This guy is ambitious and unwilling to be subordinated, so he has never been convinced by me. However, he is not strong enough and has always wanted to annex the Earth-Drawing Tigers. But the Earth-Drawing Tigers are also You're not stupid. You have both sides. That's why there is today's deadlock. After breaking the city this time, I will have a good talk with Wang Er Mazi. If we can reach an agreement, it will be good. If we can't talk, then don't blame me for being rude. "
Yao Yongzhong pressed the sword on his waist, "This guy is a person, but if he can't be used by me, then I can only say it's a pity."

June twenty-two.
As the surrounding rebels began to gather into formations, and as soon as the sky dawned, the atmosphere above and below the city became tense.
Wubao County is so small that the city walls of Wubao County are also the most typical small city walls in the northwest inland region.
The city wall, which is more than two feet high, can play some role in preventing ordinary bandits from crossing the wall at night, but it seems a bit weak and fragile when faced with an attack by hundreds of thousands of troops.
More than ten people on strong horses came over from the west gate. Behind these people was a chaotic army with a burst of yellow dust. Compared with the formation on Wang Ermazi's side, it looked more presentable.
Wang Chenghu took a deep breath, his palms were a little sweaty, and he subconsciously glanced at the men around him.
Liu Dingfeng remained calm, Heliande's face was solemn, and finally Liu Dingfeng asked: "Are they them?"
“Well, the first one is Yao Yongzhong, nicknamed Shaking the Sky Flag, the first hero of Fenghuang Ridge in Suide. It is said that his pistol and stick skills are also very powerful..."
"Have you met Mr. Wang?" Heliande couldn't help but ask.
"We don't have such an opportunity, but I heard people in the army mention that even an ordinary person, ten or eight, can't get close..." Wang Chengwu's younger brother Wang Chenghu said from the side: "That's the short and sturdy man next to him, Pan Donglin. , is also a good hand, I have competed with him, I am no match for him, he is extremely powerful, look at the pair of meteor hammers on his waist, he can hit wherever he points, they are very powerful..."
Liu Dingfeng smiled softly, "Two kings, we have said that these three hundred people should be Yao Yongzhong's most elite personal guards, and they are also the blood of his fortune. They are all die-hard elements. Don't expect to be able to control these people." We have been recruited, so Yao and Pan will be handed over to us, and the others will be handed over to you, that’s the deal.”
Wang Chengwu felt reassured when he saw that the other party was so determined, "One word is settled."
