Chapter 516: The Five Hundred Return
83_83828 A patrol of more than 300 people in Blackwater City was driven back to Yamu City after having their weapons and horses confiscated.
At that time, on the tower of Yamu City, some guards were unknowingly worried about Meng Yi and the others.
Someone worried: "Young Master Qi is really bold, with a hundred people, he dares to chase a team of 300 people, isn't this a lantern in the toilet - looking for (death)?" ”
"Yes, how can a hundred men beat a team of three hundred? Moreover, the patrols in Blackwater City are all teams with strong combat effectiveness. In the past, when they came to provoke the surrounding area, even if it was the lord of the city, he would not rashly let us send troops to meet it. But this time ......"
"Alas, there is no way, who let the city lord say that Young Master Qi's words represent his words? If Young Master Qi wants to do this, we can't stop it. ”
"This time, I'm afraid they are more than lucky, I'm worried that if Young Master Qi really has three longs and two shorts, then the city lord asks, what should we say? After all, he is the nephew of the lord of the city. ”
"What else can I say? Of course, to tell the truth, Young Master Qi is greedy for merit, we are all ordinary soldiers, and we are not qualified to dissuade him, and the city lord knows that the righteousness will not blame us! ”
Several young generals gathered around and discussed countermeasures.
After a while, it was said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and the city lord came to the city wall building with the foil of the twenty-three Jingwei stars and moons in the royal city.
In the past, there were twenty-four Jingwei in Wangcheng, but now when Ding Kui dies, that is, twenty-three.
All of them are extraordinary, wearing fish scale armor.
The city lord is even more dressed in a yellow robe, with the appearance of an emperor, he heard that Meng Yi rode an ostrich out for a walk early in the morning, but he has not come back yet. Curiously, he brought people to the gate of the city, wanting to ask about Meng Yi's situation.
He took the twenty-three Jingwei of the royal city up to the city tower, and when the guards saw him, they immediately knelt down and bowed.
Meng Jingxu waved his hand and said, "No courtesy, in extraordinary times, there is no need to be polite." Let me ask you, have you ever seen Meng Yi? ”
When the guards heard this, they looked at each other with a sad face. They were still discussing this matter just now, but now they were asked by the city lord, and they were worried one by one, and they were also afraid that the city lord would blame.
"What's wrong? Look at your faces, what must have happened? Meng Jing's eyes were like torches, staring at several guards, and asked.
"City ...... Lord of the city, I can't hide it, something big did happen before, but ...... But that thing was ordered by Young Master Qi, and we can't help it. A guard immediately shirked his responsibility and said helplessly.
Meng Jingxu frowned, sternly got up, and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”
"That's right...... The city lord ...... "The other guard, tremblingly, reported what happened before, and he repeatedly emphasized that it was Meng Yi's order, and they couldn't stop it at all.
Who would have thought, when Meng Jingxu heard this, he immediately became furious, "You waste, when it comes to such a time, do you only know how to shirk responsibility?" Meng Yi took a hundred people out to chase and kill a team of three hundred people, how dangerous is this? Even if you can't stop it, won't you tell me about it? ”
was scolded by the city lord, and the guards were speechless, and to be precise, they were indeed derelict in their duties. Even if you can't stop it, it's still okay to report the news. But none of them reported the news.
"Forgive the city lord, I'll wait...... I waited for a moment to be ignorant and forgot to report it. The guards pounced and fell to their knees again.
Meng Jingxu waved his sleeves and snorted coldly: "Forget the report? If the enemy army is coming, will you also forget to report it? If my nephew Meng Yi has three longs and two shorts, I will let you pay for your life! With that, he tore off the yellow robe on his body, revealing a golden fish-scale armor, which was a battle armor!
He immediately shouted: "Take my weapon, immediately gather men and horses, and follow me out of the city, if that gang of thieves in Blackwater City dares to hurt my nephew, I will destroy his entire city!" ”
As soon as this order was issued, everyone was in an uproar. And all the people of the city began to discuss.
Previously, for most of the year, Yamu City had never sent troops. Because of the embarrassment at the moment, Yamu City is coveted by the five parties, and if it is a light army, it is easy to be taken advantage of.
But at this moment, for the sake of his nephew's safety, the city lord Meng Jingxu couldn't care so much, so he wanted to gather soldiers and horses out of the city to crusade against Blackwater City.
"Report ......"
At this moment, one of the guards on the castle tower noticed a crowd of people in the distance, as if a large group of people were approaching this side of Yamu City.
He immediately reported to the city lord who had already walked down the city tower and was about to lead his troops out of the city: "Report to the city lord, in the direction of Blackwater City, there is a large group of troops coming towards Yamu City!" ”
When Meng Jingxu heard this, his face turned cold! Wow, he was about to lead his troops out to attack Blackwater City, but he didn't want to, the people from Blackwater City actually sent it to the door by themselves!
"Pass my order, gather troops and horses, and prepare to go out of the city to meet the battle, we have been defending the city for more than half a year, and it is time to engage in battle."
Meng Jingxu gave a big order, and he was wearing golden fish scale armor, riding on the back of a tall horse, looking majestic.
However, no sooner had he given the order than another soldier from the tower of the city reported - "Report...... Report to the lord of the castle, those ...... Those teams from Blackwater City seem to ...... It seems to be Young Master Qi, them. ”
"What? Meng Yi's nephew? Can you see clearly? Meng Jingxu asked sternly.
The soldier nodded nervously and said, "It should be right, including the hundred people brought out by Young Master Qi, they are among them, judging from the clothes they are wearing, they are indeed our people." ”
Meng Jingxu clenched his hands into fists and thought, "Hmph, didn't the people of Blackwater City capture Meng Yi's nephew and come to blackmail me?" ”
The soldier shook his head and said, "No...... That's not the case, Lord Castle! ”
"Not so?"
"Well, Young Master Qi was not captured, and our people were not captured either, it seems that the people who were captured were from Blackwater City." The soldier said apprehensively.
"What? What did you say? Say it again? Meng Jingxu asked loudly.
The soldier clasped his hands into fists and repeated: "Back to the city lord, Young Master Qi was not captured, it seems that the people who were captured were from Blackwater City, as if Young Master Qi and the others returned triumphantly!" ”
"Triumphant...... And return? ”
The corners of Meng Jingxu's mouth twitched a few times, his expression was solemn, and he didn't say more, he immediately jumped off the horse and hurriedly ran up to the city tower, he wanted to see it with his own eyes.
The city tower is dozens of meters high, and standing on it, you can see thousands of meters away.
He was only halfway up when he heard the uproar of the guards on the tower, and they were all exclaiming. He immediately accelerated and rushed up to the tower, but when he saw a soldier running down in a hurry, as if to report the situation, he immediately carried the soldier and asked, "What is the situation?" What happened? ”
The soldier was so excited that when he saw that the person who came was the lord of the city, he was so happy that he didn't know what to say, so he stammered and pointed to it, "The city ...... Lord Castle Lord...... Why don't you go and see for yourself? ”
The city lord Meng Jingxu was impatient, and pushed him away without saying anything, climbed up the city tower, came to the periphery, and took a look.
Sure enough, I saw a large group of people approaching from the direction of Blackwater City towards Yamu City.
That big wave, more than 400 people.
Among them were the patrols of Blackwater City, as well as the hundred guards of Yamu City and Meng Yi.
To everyone's surprise, the people who were pursued by Yamu City were indeed undefeated and victorious.
The patrol of more than 300 people in Blackwater City was all imprisoned at this moment, and all of them surrendered!
I saw that the three hundred people in Blackwater City were driven away by the hundred soldiers of Yamu City in a dejected manner, like slaves.
"Triumph! Sure enough, it was a triumphant return! ”
Meng Jingxu's expression wavered, and he slapped his palm on the stone wall of the city wall excitedly, and shouted happily: "Good! is worthy of my Meng Jingxu's nephew, good! All right! ”。
