Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Qiting Town in Huanggang is located between Jushui and Dongliu River. There is a village standing majestically between the mountains, named Qiting Village. The village owner Zou Junsheng is about 30 years old. He has mastered the art of killing and is good at using double maces. He is a famous figure among the 48 villages. One day, Zou Junsheng came to the village gate early in the morning and looked down the mountain. A familiar figure was getting closer and closer. He hurriedly ordered his subordinates to open the village gate and walked quickly to greet him, "Brother Huang, you are here. You want to kill me too!"

Huang Jinlong laughed, "I also miss you very much, my dear brother. Are all the leaders here?"

"After receiving Brother Huang's letter, I have gathered all the leaders. They are all waiting for you inside. Please~" Zou Junsheng made a gesture of invitation and led the way.

Huang Jinlong followed him into the meeting hall in the village. In the hall, Fang Gongxiao of Liji, Chen Dingye of Yangluo, He Shirong of Yongning, Zhou Tiezhua and Bao Shirong of Qizhou, and Yang Guafu of Ruichang (belonging to Jiujiang Prefecture, Jiangxi) were all present. When they saw Huang Jinlong, they all stood up to greet him.

"Brother Huang, tell us about what you gained from your trip to Henan," Zhou Tiezhua, who was impatient, was the first to ask.

"This time when I went to Henan, I found that the people of Henan had cut off their braids and put on Ming Dynasty clothes again. The Lotus Khan of Wei State was a benevolent monarch who allowed all ethnic groups to keep their own clothes and encouraged intermarriage. If the Han Dynasty clothes can be restored, we will have the face to see our ancestors after death. Moreover, the mother of the King of Qin who led the army to attack Huguang this time is the sister of His Royal Highness Prince Yanchang of the Ming Dynasty. The young prince has half the blood of the Ming Dynasty royal family flowing in his body. As a minister of the Ming Dynasty, how can we not obey his orders?..." Huang Jinlongduan was born with a good mouth. He talked endlessly about the justice of surrendering to David, which made everyone excited. When he took out the various official documents he had prepared, the atmosphere on the scene became more and more intense.

"Brother Huang, please give the order. We have no choice but to accept it," said Widow Yang excitedly. She was the widow of a righteous man who fought against the Qing Dynasty. After her husband's death, she led her subordinates to build a stronghold to resist the Qing Dynasty. She was the only female general among the people present, but she was as brave as any man and her reputation spread far and wide.

"Yes, Brother Huang, please lead us to restore the Ming Dynasty's clothes and customs, even if it means death," everyone said in unison.

"Don't worry, everyone. Gather your men in Qiting Town first and then take action after my command." Huang Jinlong was very calm and seemed to have a plan in mind.

Seeing his look, Zou Junsheng was happy and said, "Brother Huang must have a good idea. We will just follow your instructions."

Huang Jinlong smiled slightly, "Huanggang City is small but strong. There are 4,000 soldiers under the pseudo-Qing deputy general Wu Qizhen stationed in the city. Although the forces of various camps are concentrated, there are 7,000 to 8,000 people, but they lack siege equipment, and they may not be able to take it down by force. Before coming here, I have visited Liu Qizhen, Cheng Zhenbang, Bao Honggong, Chen Huihui, Li Gongmao and other leaders in Macheng, and asked them to obey my orders and start an uprising in Macheng first. When Wu Qizhen hears that something has changed in Macheng, he will lead his troops to help. Qiting Town is located on the main road from Huanggang to Macheng. If the Qing army comes, they will have to pass through here. We set up an ambush, first encircle and annihilate the Qing army that leaves the city, and then taking Huanggang will be as easy as taking something out of a bag!"

"Brother Huang, this is a great idea. I admire you!" Widow Yang looked at Huang Jinlong lovingly. This man not only has the heroism of her late husband, but also has the wisdom that her late husband did not have, and he is also good-looking~
"Great plan~" "Great idea~" "Brother Huang is truly a wise man~" The leaders praised him endlessly.

"Thank you for your praise~" Huang Jinlong smiled and said modestly, but suddenly he noticed the hot gaze from Widow Yang, and his heart was moved for no reason. The lady of the Yang family was so pretty. Although she was a little fierce to others, she was still very good to me...

After receiving Huang Jinlong's secret letter ordering the uprising, Liu Qizhen and Liu Qingli quickly notified Cheng Zhenbang, Bao Honggong, Chen Huihui, Li Gongmao and other leaders to lead their subordinates to join them. More than 3,500 people soon gathered on the hillside of Huangtu'ao in Dongshan, Macheng County, and the momentum was very huge.

"Brother Huang wrote to us asking us to attack Macheng. Everyone please return to the camp and make good preparations. We will set out to the county town early tomorrow morning," Liu Qizhen waved his big hands and gave the order excitedly, as if he was the chief leader of the Forty-Eight Villages.

"Father, according to the agreement, Garrison Tan will lead his troops to support us. Should we wait for Garrison Tan's troops to arrive before launching the attack?" Hearing his son mention the name of Tan Yicong, the garrison commander of the David Kingdom's Shangcheng, Liu Qizhen smiled disdainfully, "When he was in the Forty-Eight Villages, Tan Yicong was just a nobody. He relied on his early defection to the David Kingdom to gain the title of garrison commander. When it comes to fighting, he is far behind! Don't wait for him, let's set off directly tomorrow morning."

"Yes~" all the leaders responded in unison.

There are many kinds of people, some hate the Qing Dynasty, some love it. There was a wealthy man named Xia Dingan in Muxiang River who had a grudge against Liu Qizhen. Upon hearing this, he thought it was a good opportunity to kill someone with a borrowed knife, so he quickly rushed to Macheng to meet with the county magistrate Wang Lu.

"Your Excellency, this is a disaster. Liu Qizhen of Baigao Town has gathered a group of thugs and is preparing to rebel." Xia Dingan is so good that he put the accusation of treason on his lips as soon as he opens his mouth.

Wang Lu was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly took him to meet Wang Zongchen, the lieutenant general of Huangzhou.

"Do you know how many people are there in this group of rioters? What's their purpose?" Wang Zongchen asked.

"There were about 3,000 people, from all the villages, led by Liu Qizhen, Liu Qingli and his son, Cheng Zhenbang, Bao Honggong, Chen Huihui, Li Gongmao and a few others." In order to get rich, Xia Ding'an sold out all his fellow villagers.

After asking about the situation, Wang Zongchen was not surprised but happy, and laughed at Wang Lu, "A mere 3,000 bandits are nothing to worry about, County Magistrate Wang, here comes a good opportunity for you and me to make great contributions!" No wonder he was arrogant, he had 1,500 subordinates, all of whom were elite Green Camp soldiers. In addition, since Huangzhou had repeatedly seen anti-Qing righteous armies, each county had organized militias, and there were more than a thousand militias in Macheng. Xia Dingan, who came to report the news, was one of the militia leaders. These soldiers added up to 3,000 people, so why should they be afraid of such a few bandits.

"Canrong, what do you mean?" Wang Lu asked tremblingly.

"You take 500 militiamen to guard the county town, and I will take the Green Camp soldiers and 1,000 militiamen to quell the rebellion. Humph! I will wipe out this group of rioters before they start to cause trouble!" Wang Zongcen squinted his eyes and shook his fat head. The scar on his face looked hideous.

When Liu Qizhen heard that the Qing army in Macheng came to attack him, he was surprised. He then reacted and said with a smile: "This must be the message that Xia Dingan, that dog thief, reported to the Qing army."

"Brother Liu, what should we do?" asked the rebel leader Cheng Zhenbang with some anxiety.

"Leave Baigao Town first, retreat to the mountains, and then use the terrain to deal with the enemy." Liu Qizhen was not panicked at all and gave the order calmly. Seeing that the commander looked confident, the leaders immediately calmed down and followed his order to retreat to Dongshan. Chief Liu, no, Liu Du Baihu placed the three hundred most elite hunters under his command in the dense forest halfway up the mountain. These three hundred people all had earthen guns. Although they could not shoot far, they were powerful when shooting from a high position. In addition to these earthen guns, there were dozens of archers, and some rolling logs and stones were prepared to guard the mountain. In order to harass the Qing army, he also gathered the only seven war horses and handed them over to his son Liu Qingli to lead the harassment of the Qing army. (End of this chapter)
