Chapter 55: The City Breaks
Every day, no matter whether there is a war or not, Shen Moli will go over to help take care of the wounded soldiers, smiling at everyone, revealing a leisurely and elegant attitude between words and deeds, no matter how dirty and tiring the work will be silently accepted Next, many soldiers know that this little girl who is respected and loved by many people is not only the daughter of Lord Shen, but also knows that her name is Shen Moli!
In the summer, the Tartars had already sent two sets of internal responses to Baoji County, but fortunately, they were discovered and killed by the defenders in time, avoiding the crisis of losing and many innocent deaths.
Because he didn't know how long the war would last, in order to save food, Shen Botao made people go around calling on the people to save food for military rations, and only ate one meal of sweet potato leaves for the main meal in order to take the lead, and Shen Moli was no exception. Many people in Baoji County have voluntarily and spontaneously relied on leaves and grass roots to survive, and many young and middle-aged people are willing to join Congrong. For this reason, Shen Botao was moved to tears for a while, and made a heavy oath that "people are in the city, and people are lost in the city"!
The battle continued with difficulty until the end of autumn, and the soldiers on both sides were exhausted, especially the soldiers defending the city were at the end of the mountain. In order to defend against the Tartars, they climbed the city wall, demolished countless idle houses, and destroyed countless beautiful rockery courtyards, just to have enough stones and rolling wood.
Before dawn that day, an unexpected heavy snowfall was ushered in, and Shen Moli hoped to do his best to pack all the cotton clothes at home and prepare them for the soldiers to keep out the cold.
"Miss! Oh no! The old hour guarding the door staggered all the way and ran to the door of Shen Moli's boudoir, "Miss! The gates have been breached! Come with me, there's a place to hide! He said in a trembling and sad voice.
Hearing his words, Shen Moli chuckled in his heart, the cotton clothes in his hand fell to the ground, and his brain immediately felt a sense of dizziness that was spinning, and he felt that he was about to suffocate, and his father was still at the north gate! Shen Moli supported the table with both hands and tried to regulate his breathing, and when his breath stabilized a little, he walked out of the room and saluted to the old clock, "Uncle Zhong, thank you for your kindness!" Mo Li is going to the north gate, and he has to guard his father!"
The old man looked at the arrogant and loyal young lady and persuaded: "Miss, you just follow the old man to hide!" You're ......" After a moment's hesitation, he said fiercely, "You're a girl!" For the sake of the Shen family, you can't go to the north gate by yourself! ”
Shen Moli didn't understand what Old Zhong Tou meant, so he only smiled indifferently, "Thank you Uncle Zhong for your kindness!" Mo Li will never insult the Shen family! If I don't come back safely, I just hope that if you see your mother and brother in the future, bring them a word, Mo Li, thank your parents for their nurturing grace! Thank you, brother, for your kindness! In the next life, you will repay the great kindness with a grass ring! As he spoke, he took off the purse he was carrying, and inside was the Guanyin statue that he had embroidered these nights, "Uncle Zhong, if I can't come back, I have to ask you to hand this over to your mother!" ”
After listening to Miss's words, feeling Miss's determination to die without regrets, Lao Zhong's dim eyes overflowed with tears, "Miss! Female doll, you must take care! As he spoke, he took the purse, took out a dagger from his arms and handed it to Shen Moli, "Female doll, keep this for emergency use!" The old man is greedy for red dust, and the old man is going to hide! Without looking back, he walked towards the way he came.
Shen Moli returned to the house, took out a set of men's white robes that he had sewn, put on his body, tied his belt tightly, tied his hair tightly, tucked the dagger into his boots, and went out with a soft whip in a heroic manner, stepping on the thin snow and walking towards the door firmly.
Yudi noticed the difference in the atmosphere early in the morning, and was outside the door early, and saw the master coming out and hurriedly following behind.
Shen Moli went out to see that the street was already full of people with their families and running towards the south gate, and from time to time there were women's choked voices, children's cries, and men's shouts, rushing towards the north gate against the flow of people.
Raindrops followed closely behind his master, vigilantly looking ahead.
The closer to the north gate, there are ruins and broken walls everywhere, and there are still raging fires in some places, and the ground is full of soldiers who defend the city and the people of Daxia who have fought to death, looking at the prosperous homeland in the past, it has become a purgatory on earth today, and the extremely angry Shen Moli ran all the way regardless of the wind and let the blizzard slap his face, only thinking that father, you must be safe and sound! Looking up at the north gate tower that was getting closer and closer, it was already full of wolf smoke, and the sound of shouting and killing was already dilapidated.
The rain was following behind, but suddenly he jumped in front of his master and roared in one direction.
More than a dozen sturdy Tartars with scimitars in their hands rushed out of the alley next to them, and when they saw Shen Moli laughing loudly, Yin Guang looked her up and down unscrupulously, and surrounded her without any scruples, and kept foul language in his mouth, and said provocatively in very impure Chinese, "The man is also the best!" Just to vent the fire! ”
Seeing this scene, Shen Moli didn't say a word, he picked up the soft whip and fired the death force at the Tartar in front of him, and then he whipped it hard. The soft whip, with the sound of whirring wind, "snapped" and was unmistakably whipped in the eyes of the tartar.
The tartar immediately screamed in pain, and he lay on the ground with his hands over his bloody eyes, and rolled.
Yudi didn't hesitate to pick up another tartar that leaned over and pounced on it, and it was a crazy bite, and it was accurately bitten on the death hole. Wait for the person below you to lose their reaction, and then move on to the next goal.
The rest of the Tartars looked at this little white face that was not frightened, and this mad dog was stunned for a moment, glanced at each other, and instantly shouted and scolded, raised the scimitar to make an attacking momentum, and pounced viciously towards Shen Moli.
Shen Moli didn't care about the many dead points aimed at each target, and struggled to pull out the soft whip, striving to knock down the enemy and make them never have a chance to get up again.
Although the Tartar is a brave and good fighter on the horse, in view of the fact that the weapon cannot touch Shen Moli, he can only reach out and forcibly catch the whip that is drawn, trying to control it, but the whip speed is extremely fast, and the whip method is extremely accurate, and it is always unacceptable. Someone grabbed the whip, but was also bitten by the raindrops next to him, and had to let go in order to protect himself.
