Volume 1 The East China Sea Dilemma Chapter 85 The Siege of Water (4)

Geng Changjun's passionate encouragement boosted morale, and Cui Yue's attack was once again repulsed.

It's just that Cui Yue has been affirmed by Jiang Yue, and he will work harder to siege the city.

No matter how high the morale of the soldiers defending the city was on the city walls, because of the lack of numbers, the stubborn resistance lasted for a short time.

When those cannon fodder soldiers climbed the city wall again, Cui Yue saw the opportunity and ordered a thousand forest guards to climb the ladder and rush up.

The army on the city wall was already all over the East China Sea, and soon someone took the opportunity to capture the city tower and open the city gate, Cui Yue took the opportunity to lead the last two thousand forest guards to attack from the city gate.

When Yu Linwei entered the city, there was no suspense in this war.

The ordinary city guards began to drop their weapons and surrender on their knees.

The resistance was already minimal, and the Suiwang guards under Geng Changjun were less than 100 people, and they were trapped in a dead corner by Yulinwei.

"Wei Zhang!" Jiang Wei saw that the situation had been decided, so he ordered.

"Your Highness!"

"Your Tongque Battalion is good at pursuit, and now that Nangong Sui has fled to the north, it will be handed over to you, how about it?" Jiang Fu asked in a consultative tone, do you still want to give Wei Zhang a little military merit and stabilize Minzhou, so that he can fight with the five monarchs of the East China Sea in a big way.

"That's what I mean!" Wei Zhang smiled and replied.

"That's good! Everyone, follow me into town! Jiang Fu gave the order to enter the city, and the army began to march towards the inner city.

Cui Yue led Yulin Wei to surround Geng Changjun, and Jiang Yu said that he wanted to live, so he didn't let the soldiers release arrows.

"Surrender! You can't escape! Seeing that Geng Changjun, who was covered in blood, was still resisting, Cui Yue said loudly.

Geng Changjun clenched his long sword, and the armor on his body was already stained with blood, but most of these were the blood of soldiers from the East China Sea.

Although he was not injured, he was exhausted, but he did not surrender.

"Phew!" He spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm, and back-to-back with the guards beside him met the soldiers who rushed up.

The corpses on the ground were piled up, and the smoke and blood stained the entire city wall red!

At this moment, there were more than 100 soldiers who died under his hands, and everyone showed a look of fear in their eyes.

Yu Linwei was holding a long knife and spear, and no one dared to take the lead in attacking.

At this time, Jiang Fu rode a horse and led a large army to come here.

"Your Highness!" Cui Yue immediately knelt down on one knee, "The last general has surrounded the enemy general, and he will be captured soon!" ”

Jiang Fu turned over and dismounted, personally helped him up, and said, "General Cui has worked hard!" ”

Cui Yue was so moved that he was about to cry, and he was personally helped up by His Royal Highness the Prince, what a glory this is!

"The last general is willing to go to the soup for His Highness, not hard!"

"You have made a great contribution to the invasion of the inner city! After this battle, this prince will personally write to his father and ask for credit for you! ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Jiang Wei stepped forward and walked towards the encirclement, and Yu Linwei immediately made a way out.

"Geng Changjun, are you willing to surrender to this prince?" Jiang Fu asked.

Geng Changjun looked at the young man standing in front of him, and heard him call himself this prince, presumably it must be Jiang Fu, the eldest prince of the East China Sea.

Before, he had heard that Jiang Fu was trapped, and it was only a matter of time before he was captured. Unexpectedly, how long has passed, Lu Ping was killed by him, Nangong Que was also captured alive, and now even Nangong Sui is forced to escape!

How the hell did he do it?

"It disappointed His Highness, our own guards received the favor of the Nangong clan, just to be loyal to the king, and never surrender!" Geng Changjun said resolutely.

Jiang Fu sneered, "Nangong Clan's favor? This prince would be interested in hearing what kind of favor he has done to you?"

"The king's favor to us is beyond words to be expressed! Now I am trapped here, fighting to the last drop of blood, loyal to the king! ”

"What a loyal one to the king!" Jiang Fu sneered, "The Nangong clan is a rebel in the East China Sea, you are a thief!" How can you be loyal? ”

"The Nangong clan is a rebel in the East China Sea? Isn't your East China Sea a rebellion in Great Xia? Geng Changjun asked rhetorically.

"Bold!" Cui Yue stepped forward, shouted angrily, and lowered his head and said to Jiang Wei: "Your Highness, this person's words are disrespectful, you don't need to talk so much nonsense with him, let the archers release their arrows and shoot them to death, right?" ”

Jiang Fu glared at him, this look frightened Cui Yue retreated slightly, only to hear Jiang Fu say lightly: "General Cui is teaching Prince Ben to do things?" ”

Cui Yue reacted at this time, Jiang Fu had always been kind to him before, he thought that Jiang Fu was very good at talking, so he ignored his identity. Now that Jiang Fu was stared at like this, he was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and said in fear: "The last general will not dare!" ”

"Stay and go!"

"My East China Sea is a kingdom recognized by the Great Xia royal family on the "Linhe Convention"! But the Nangong clan rebelled in the East China Sea, occupied the three cities, and stood on their own with the country, but was not recognized by the Great Xia royal family! What you say is confusing! Jiang Fu said to Geng Changjun.

Geng Changjun did not agree with his words, but said: "The Linhe Convention was forced by your seven kingdoms to be signed by the Great Xia royal family, and it is just a fig leaf for your seven kingdoms. ”

"This prince is not going to have this war of words with you! You have no way to escape, this prince sees that you are a general, and has the heart to protect your life! As long as you throw down your weapons and surrender, this prince will protect you with glory and wealth for the rest of your life! ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness! I've made up my mind! Even if blood is spilled on the spot today, we will never surrender! ”

"Oh? Is it? Jiang Fu was not annoyed.

At this moment, several soldiers walked from behind him, and a mother and daughter were escorted.

"Ci'er! Madam! When Geng Changjun saw the mother and daughter, he shouted in surprise.

"Daddy!"

"Husband!"

When the mother and daughter saw Geng Changjun covered in blood, they also struggled and wanted to rush forward, but they were held down by the soldiers.

"Ginger! You are not a gentleman! You let my wife and daughter go! You have the ability to rush at me! Geng Changjun's eyes were full of anger, and the hand holding the long sword trembled violently.

"Let them go? I can let them go! After letting them go, they came to you, and then, along with you and the soldiers, they were killed by Prince Ben's arrows? Jiang Fu sneered and said, "You just want your wife and daughter to follow you to die?" ”

"You ....."

"This prince is not as bad as you think! I will not kill them, but I will send them to Linzi and give them a stable place to live! It's just that you are stubborn and refuse to surrender. If they die, in their lives in the future, they will bear the name of their father and husband as traitors, do you think they will live happily? Have a peaceful life? ”

"I ......"

"Whether you want to surrender or not, you decide for yourself!" Jiang Fu said, and said to the soldiers who grabbed Geng Changjun's family, "Let them go!" ”

The soldiers let go of the mother and daughter, and the mother and daughter ran towards Geng Changjun quickly.

The long sword in Geng Changjun's hand "ding" and fell to the ground, hugging the mother and daughter into his arms.

"Give you half a cup of tea time, you have three choices, one is to surrender, no one will die! The second is that you commit suicide and hand them over to this prince, who will protect their lives! The third is that if you are ruthless, everyone will die, including the two of them! Jiang Fu said again and turned his back.

"Daddy! Ci'er is afraid! The little girl burst into tears and said weakly in Geng Changjun's arms.

"Ci'er is good, don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" He hugged his daughter in distress, and struggled inwardly.

"Husband, are you injured...... wife's heart is extremely distressed, stroking the armor on his body, crying.

In this moment, he felt that he was an irresponsible husband and father.

A family of three quietly spoke their heartfelt hearts in the midst of a large number of soldiers, and the flames of war burned the city walls, making a crackling sound, and at this moment, it was as if the whole world was silent.

Geng Changjun took a step forward, looked at Jiang Fu's back, and asked, "What you said counts?" ”

Jiang Fu turned around and said flatly: "This prince is full of words, and what he says definitely counts!" ”

Geng Changjun looked at the soldiers on the ground who were killed by him, and asked again: "Even if I kill so many of you, are you willing to save the lives of my wife and children?" ”

Jiang Fu looked at him calmly for a long time before he sighed and said a sentence, "It seems that you chose to cut yourself?" ”

Geng Changjun knelt on his knees and said in a choked voice: "Geng Changjun... Surrender..."

"Report!" Just when Jiang Fu was happy to accept Geng Changjun, a wise general, a fast horse spy came galloping.

The spy turned over and dismounted, and said, "Your Highness! General Wei chased the traitors of Nangong for thirty miles, but encountered the Northern Mongolian Jinjia Army, fought hard and was unable to win, and was forced to retreat to the Hanning Ferry, begging His Highness to send reinforcements! ”

"What? The Jinjia Army is so fast? Jiang Fu was frightened for a while.

The Jinjia Army has a reputation, Wei Zhang's 3,000 Tongque Battalion is not an opponent at all, if Wei Zhang folds in the hands of the Jinjia Army, Wei Ping will definitely not give up!

"Cui Yue! Jishui County is now in the hands of you and Geng Changjun, and you will quickly clean up the stubborn rebellion in the city and maintain the stability of Jishui! If there is a slight difference, this prince will ask you! Jiang Cheng immediately made a decision, and said to the herald: "This prince will lead the people of his headquarters first and go to reinforcements!" General Zhi Guangmao gathered his soldiers and went to the rescue! ”

After all, after entering the city, the soldiers led by Zhi Guangmao surrounded and suppressed those who fled Nangong Sui in the city, so it would take a certain amount of time to gather them all, and he could only set off with the thousands of forest guards and muskets on hand first.

After the city was broken, Wei Zhang led the soldiers of the 3,000 Tongque Battalion to chase north non-stop.

Nangong fled in a hurry, and those who followed the fleeing panicked, leaving a lot of traces along the way, and there was no time to arrange and hide their whereabouts.

This made Wei Zhang easily chase after Nangong Sui, but at this moment, he ran into the Jinjia army that came to reinforce Nangong Sui, and it was not the three thousand people that the spies said before, but five thousand people.

The two armies started an encounter, although Wei Zhang's 3,000 Tongque battalion was also elite, but it was still slightly inferior to the Jinjia army, and after paying the price of four or five hundred people, he retreated to the Hanning ferry to draw water.
