Chapter 65: Leaving the city overnight
He looked at the soldiers around Ma Denglong, raised his eyebrows and said, "My lord, I wanted to save your life!" Why are you so stubborn? I've already told the general of the Jin Army outside the city! As long as we dedicate the new fort to them, they will guarantee our safety, and in the future, we will have all the glory and wealth. Don't be obsessed, my lord! Do you think it's useful to warn Sanyang? Ye Fu just killed a few Houjin soldiers by luck, and he really thought he was a heavenly soldier or a general? He can't win! This time, there is bound to be a price! How's that, sir? Just nod your head! For the sake of how well you have treated me all these years, I can assure the general of your future. ”
"You gibberish! Wish for the moon! Ma Denglong slapped the adobe bricks at the head of the city and scolded.
Lu Wenshan's eyes sharpened, his wrist shook slightly, and the dagger that had been hidden in his sleeve was suddenly sharp. He held the dagger behind his back and stabbed it into Ma Denglong's heart.
Ma Denglong is a soldier who has passed through the battle formation, and his reaction is not slow.
He jerked his body and dodged the blow.
Then with a kick, the dagger in Lu Wenshan's hand flew out of his hand, and when it smashed on the wall brick with a bang, it bounced out of the city wall.
Lu Wenshan staggered back three steps, but still fell to the ground.
Ma Denglong was furious and scolded him, "What kind of thing are you talking about? Dare to threaten Lao Tzu! Premeditated assassination! Your guts are really not small! Lao Tzu usually underestimates you! Come! Tie him up to me and throw him down! ”
Ma Denglong shouted like this, but Lu Wenshan really panicked for a moment.
But it was only for a moment, and none of the soldiers moved, and they all stood in place, as if they were stupid.
Ma Denglong jumped up, almost annoyed, and yelled at the people around him: "What? Are they all deaf? Can't you hear what this official says? Tie up this scrap to Lao Tzu and throw it down! ”
The soldiers still stood silently, and after a long time, one person said timidly: "What Mr. Lu said ~~ also makes sense~~"
"Alas~~ I really knew today, why bother in the first place!"
Lu Wenshan rubbed the painful part behind him, and looked triumphantly at Ma Denglong, who was controlled by his own soldiers.
In fact, before Lu Wenshan committed the assassination, he never thought that the assassination would fail. I really didn't prepare for it!
He also knew that although Ma Denglong lived a more Buddhist life, he was actually not bad at controlling his subordinates. If you want to stir up a relationship between the two, I'm afraid it's not easy. Buying, on the contrary, will show the horse's feet.
Therefore, he did not dare to be a follow-up in this regard.
But to his real surprise, these pro-soldiers actually held the same opinion as him!
Sure enough, today's Liaodong Army has eroded like this, who doesn't want to find a good way for themselves to go early? Die with Daming? Hum! I don't want to think about it, when the emperor Lao Tzu was clothed and fed, did he think about the soldiers under his command who almost froze to death and starved to death in Liaodong!
Jiangshan is the Zhu family, why should others sell their lives to death?
"Well, God has the virtue of a good life!" Lu Wenshan put on a savior look, looked at Ma Denglong condescendingly, and said to him: "You keep saying that you want to tie me up and throw me down the city to my death, but you are really ruthless and indifferent. I don't blame you, though! Even if I'm in a good mood today, I won't treat others the way they do. Come, please go down and open the gates! Perhaps, the general will like this extra gift I gave him! ”
When he said the word 'big gift', Lu Wenshan deliberately looked at Ma Denglong twice.
Ma Denglong was gagged and couldn't say anything, so he could only stare at himself and whine in his mouth, venting his dissatisfaction in his heart.
Lu Wenshan stopped looking at him and took the lead in walking towards the bottom of the city tower.
The gates of the city were pushed open very slowly by the soldiers in front of Ma Denglong.
The squeaky sound was really pleasant to listen to in Lu Wenshan's ears.
Even, he didn't notice that Ma Denglong behind him didn't know when he had stopped struggling and whimpering. A pair of eyes stared at Lu Wenshan's back, revealing a light of contempt.
said that the Tartar cavalry not far away, the moment they saw the city gate starting to open, they knew that Lu Wenshan had succeeded.
In the posture of victors, they rode their horses and walked slowly towards this side.
Ma Denglong secretly counted in his heart.
Two hundred steps!
One hundred and fifty steps!
One hundred steps!
~~
It's getting closer!
Suddenly, the soldiers, who were as quiet as chickens, suddenly moved neatly!
Raise the crossbow, load the arrow, pull the string.
Rows of arrows burst out at a rapid pace.
Then, as if it was a good deal, he didn't even bother to take a look at the results. Everyone wrapped themselves around Ma Denglong and Lu Wenshan and quickly retreated.
The soldiers who had been guarding the door early pushed the door hard and closed it as fast as they could.
Almost just a matter of breath, the Tartar cavalry on the opposite side had already planted more than a dozen people under the horses.
The leading Tartar general was almost mad!
He shouted in Manchu and asked the cavalry to launch a surprise attack! Break through the gates in one fell swoop.
However, the soldiers in the city were clearly prepared.
On the city, crossbow arrows shot down wantonly, arrow by arrow, shooting at the cavalry galloping closer.
Seeing that there were more than a dozen casualties, the cavalry had to slow down.
The city gate was slowly closed in front of him, and the Tartar general's eyes were red, but he could only reluctantly order to retreat!
It's as if everything has come back to square one.
The Tartar retreated to where he had just wandered, hiding out of the effective range of the crossbow bolts on the tower.
And on the city tower, Ma Denglong, who had been loosened, was surrounded by his subordinates, and beside him, he was still the kobold military division.
It's just that Lu Wenshan's face is already pale.
"You lied to me~~" Lu Wenshan said neainly.
Ma Denglong laughed and patted him on the shoulder and said, "My own soldiers are all brothers who followed me from birth to death on the battlefield. Even if I don't do well, will they still betray me, listen to you? You know, even if I, Ma Denglong, am hungry myself, I won't let them be wronged! There's no reason for them to betray me! Especially for you! ”
When Ma Denglong said this, he was always smiling.
Under the castle tower, it really looks like the two of them are talking happily.
General Tartar had just suffered a big loss because of the light enemy, and at this time, he was itching with hatred.
remembered the flattering look between the lines when Lu Wenshan secretly communicated with him before. How could he even believe this guy's nonsense!
Sure enough, the Han people can't be trusted!
The Tartar General thought so and took the bow from his back.
The horse moved forward slightly, and the arrows were attached to the bowstring.
Whoosh –
A feather arrow flew by with the sound of the wind, and with a pop, it penetrated Lu Wenshan's chest.
Ma Denglong hurriedly retreated.
looked at Lu Wenshan's fallen figure and shook his head secretly.
If it weren't for his cleverness, he knew that at the beginning of Lu Wenshan's attack, he used his eyes to hint at what the soldiers should do, I am afraid that at this moment, it would really be him Ma Denglong.
Well, I don't want to sacrifice the city, so I will count it.
Now, the opponent has been provoked, and Ma Denglong regrets it a little.
This kind of plan is calculated, and the consequences are really too clear to him.
Or, victorious, the enemy will naturally retreat.
Either~~
Thinking of the old thing that the Tartar attack was slightly unsmooth, and the city would inevitably be slaughtered if the city was broken, Ma Denglong frowned tightly.
"Someone!" He shouted.
The soldiers immediately stepped forward, only to listen to Ma Denglong's arrangement, "Go get me a pen and paper immediately!" I'm going to write a letter to adults! Fast! Hurry up! ”
Ma Denglong was in an irritable mood, and he was very urgent to give orders.
The soldiers hurriedly ran down, and after a short time, they brought the pen and paper over.
Ma Denglong wrote hard in the moonlight. After writing, he didn't care that the ink was dry, so he folded it casually and handed it to a personal soldier.
"Quick! Send it out to me at night! Ma Denglong commanded, "It's up to you whether the old and young of the city can survive or not!" Must! Be sure to send me the letter! Even if you die, the letter must be delivered! Got it! ”
The soldiers nodded hurriedly, and Ma Denglong let him go.
Pacing alone, he took a slight half step forward, and quickly retreated, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and thought about what had happened before, and couldn't help but feel that he was a little inexplicably weak.
He's not a guy who wants to fight, but who let this fall on him?
