Chapter 604: Beyond the Blade (2)
As one of the most well-informed places in Bianliang City, the Wu Dynasty army took advantage of Zongwang's all-out attack on the city, sneaked up on Mutuogang, and successfully burned the grain and grass of the Jurchen army, which had spread in the alum tower in the early morning.
got out of bed with embroidered shoes and clothes, the first person to tell her the news was the maid in the building, and then Li Yun who came over in a hurry.
Even if she didn't dare to go to the city wall to help, Mother Li was still a woman who knew the righteousness, and she did not stop the things that the master often passed during this time. When she heard about this good news, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep, so she woke up the people in the building and put on the lights, and when the teacher woke up, she immediately came to report the news.
In any case, it sounds like a myth......
General Qin led 4,000 elite soldiers of the Wu Dynasty, taking advantage of the lax defense of the Jurchens, to raid the large camp of Muhuogang, which was still garrisoned by tens of thousands of people, defeated the army, burned most of the Jurchen grain and grass, and retreated.
Judging from the news itself, such an attack can really be called a thunderous blow to the Jurchens, clean and inspiring. However, in the ears of the teacher, it is difficult to feel the truth.
She has seen the strength and ferocity of the Jurchens by the city wall, when those Jurchen soldiers rushed into the city last night, although they were finally killed by the soldiers of the Wu Dynasty who rushed to save the city gate, but the combat power of the Jurchens is really terrifying. In order to kill these people, they paid several times the price of their lives, and even in the nearby wounded barracks, they were made a mess by the other party, and some of the wounded soldiers resisted, but so what, they were still killed by those Jurchen soldiers.
It is precisely because his own resistance has been so strong, and those who have died are so successive, that the master is more and more able to understand how powerful the combat power of those Jurchens is. And even more so before that. In the wilderness outside Bianliang City, they defeated the army of King Qin, which was more than 300,000.
4,000 people sneak attacked tens of thousands of people, and they won? Burned grain and grass? How can it be......
Because of such intuition and reason, even if Li Yun had already said it conclusively, the other people in the building believed it and willingly immersed themselves in joy. In the heart of the teacher, after all, he still retains a sense of sobriety.
She is in this position, after all, she has seen too many messy things, deception, lying about military exploits, or deceiving everyone for one reason or another, it is nothing new, the pressure brought by the Jurchens in front of her is so great, if someone deliberately makes a fake good news, it will cheer people up. It's not something that can't be imagined.
In the happy love of everyone in the alum building, there was a happy look, and on the street outside, some people even began to beat gongs and drums because of excitement. After a while, some people came to the alum building, some celebrated, and some came to look for her-because they knew that the master was concerned about this matter, and after receiving the news, some people came to celebrate with her. Friends similar to Hezhong and Chen Sifeng are also among them, and they came to report the good news.
The heavy snow has stopped outside. This morning has just begun, and it seems that the whole city of Bianliang is immersed in the joy of this small victory. When the teacher heard such and such news, the joy in his heart gradually faded, and he only felt tiredness surging up again: such a large-scale propaganda shows that the bigwigs of the imperial court can't wait to use this news to make a fuss and boost morale. In the past, she was good at dancing with long sleeves and acting on the spot. But after so much killing and horror, if she and these people were still celebrating a fake news, even if there was cheering news, she only felt physically and mentally exhausted.
This kind of love lasted until Su Wenfang came to the Alum Tower.
These days, Su Wenfang cooperates with the Prime Minister's Mansion to do things. It is to let the big families in the city send their families to guard the city, in this regard, Zhuji is of course related, and the relationship between Alum Tower is more, so both sides have a lot of contacts. Su Wenfang came to Li Yun to discuss how to make good use of this good news, and when the teacher heard him coming, he confessed to everyone in her courtyard, so he came to Li's mother's side, intercepted Su Wenfang, who had just finished talking about the matter, and then asked him about the truth of the matter.
ββ¦β¦ Whether the good news is true or not, you must not hide it from me. β
In the past few years of following Ning Yi's side, Su Wenfang has grown up rapidly in many tests and has become a very reliable man in the outside world. But in reality, he is younger than Ning Yi, compared to the master who has been in Fengyue for so many years, he is actually still a little immature, although the two sides have already had some contacts, but now he is being asked by the master with his hands folded and seriously, he still feels a little nervous, but because the truth is there, it is not difficult to answer: "Naturally it is true." β
"Wen Fang, don't lie to me, the Jurchens are so powerful, not to mention that 4,000 people sneak attack 10,000 people, even if tens of thousands of people pass, they may not be able to take advantage. I know that the Right Prime Minister's Office is in charge of this matter, and for the sake of publicity and morale, even if it is fake, I will do my best to treat it as if it were true. But...... But this time, I really didn't want to be kept in the dark, even if it was a point that might be true, outside the city...... Was there really a successful raid on the camp? β
Su Wenfang looked at her, and then looked at the sides of the surroundings slightly, his face was not embarrassed to lie, there were really some things that were pressed in his heart: "I'll tell you, but this matter is ...... You can't say it. β
"Hmm." Shi Shi nodded.
"General Qin and his brother-in-law are here." Su Wenfang was slightly proud, "Since the defeat of the Wurui Battalion, my brother-in-law has been promoting these things, and he continues to clear the wilderness under the nose of the Jurchens, while he is still gathering the rout and training them. Now outside this Bianliang City, I am afraid that there is no one and no food, so he and General Qin launched a thunderous blow to cut off the back road of the Jurchens. This time the second young man led the team with his brother-in-law, I said this, are you credible? β
ββ¦β¦ Liheng is also there? β
"My brother-in-law was seriously injured on the night of the rout in the Wurui camp." Su Wenfang said, "But even so, I have never put down the matter of the strong wall and the clear field, even if the people in the prime minister's mansion have never expected this matter to really work." Until the good news came last night, the prime minister's mansion was alarmed, and Nian Gong, Mr. Ji, and Master Jueming were so excited that they didn't sleep well. The robbery of the camp is nothing, and the Jurchens' grain and grass may have been preserved for two or three percent, the point is that the brother-in-law is from beginning to end. are all in the ambush of this matter. Now around Bianliang, people and food are really gone, and after eating up the food, they are really going to be suffocated to death. β
He said: "I have been working by my brother-in-law's side for so long, whether it is Liangshan or disaster relief. It's good to deal with those martial arts people, which time is not like this. When the brother-in-law really wants to make a move, where can they stop it, although it is a Jurchen person this time, the brother-in-law makes a move, and they also have to hurt. More than 4,000 people have retreated, and this is just the beginning, but he doesn't have many people, I'm afraid it's difficult. But my brother-in-law won't be afraid. No matter how hard it is, it's just desperate. It's just that my brother-in-law was originally not well-known and not suitable for publicity, so he couldn't say it yet. β
Su Wenfang raised his chin slightly, quite proud. As a member of the Su family, the most exciting moment for him was that after receiving the news, the high-level staff of the Prime Minister's Mansion said: "Liheng is calculating." "Liheng is so ruthless." When these words come. A few months. Set up a game in an almost impossible situation, and then deliver a hard blow. Like a cheetah sneaking in the dark, if you don't make a move, you can make the enemy feel painful, how can he not be proud.
It's just that in the current situation, the whole credit is naturally Qin Shaoqian's, public opinion propaganda. Centralization of information is also required. They are not good at passing on the details of it, Su Wenfang is proud in his heart, but he has nowhere to say, at this time, he can talk to his master and show off. It also made him feel much more comfortable.
After he finished speaking, a smile also bloomed on Shishi's face: "Haha." "The body is spinning, the feet are dancing, and the excitement is jumping out several laps. She has a graceful figure and light steps, and the scene of joy at this time is extremely beautiful, Su Wenfang blushed a little when he saw it, and before he could react, the master jumped back again, grabbed his left arm, and tilted his head in front of him: "You tell me again, it's not a lie!" β
Su Wenfang's face was red, a little shy, and a little angry, and then his face turned red: "Senior girl, I, Su Wenfang, am not going to brag about my brother-in-law's affairs in front of you!" The brother-in-law is working hard outside, nine deaths, such a knife in the front of the Jurchens, who can do it! The Jurchen generals stationed in Mu Huogang have Wanyan Yanmu and Shuliesu, and there are tens of thousands of defenders, except for my brother-in-law......"
He wanted to say who could defeat them except Ning Yi, but then he felt off topic again, and he was too bragging, and his face turned even redder. The inquiring look on Shishi's face also faded, and he let go of his hand: "You say this, I already believe it." Liheng ...... Didn't get hurt, right? β
"I don't know." Su Wenfang shook his head, "The news that came didn't mention it, but I think it's good news if it wasn't mentioned." β
Shi Shi smiled, nodded, and said after a while: "He is in danger, I hope he can be well." β
Su Wenfang pursed his lips, and after a while, he also said, "When the senior girl heard about this, did she like my brother-in-law more?" β
In the past, the teacher had dealings with Ning Yi, but there was nothing ambiguous that could be put on the table, after all, the teacher was an oiran, a woman in the Qinglou, and it was common for him to have an affair with anyone. Even if Su Wenfang and others talk about whether she likes Ning Yi or not, they are only measured by Ning Yi's ability, status, and power, and no one will officially say it. At this time, he said the matter, also because Su Wenfang held a little grudge, and his mood had not calmed down. The teacher smiled generously: "Yes, it's even more ...... More and more like it. β
Su Wenfang's punch was in the air, quite unhappy, and said, "That teacher girl is going to marry my brother-in-law to be a child?" After asking, I regretted it slightly, what should have been a joke, maybe I asked a little. In fact, he has been dealing with people for so many years, and his communication methods have been quite mature, but at this time, in front of his teacher, he is a little unable to grasp it.
The teacher didn't care, just smiled: "Liheng does such a thing, as long as it is known, the sisters in the building can't help but give her their bodies, if you can be small, it's just the honor of the teacher." β
"Uh, I'm going a little too far......," Su Wenfang bowed and apologized.
The master shook his head, and smiled slightly: "I am really happy to know this." The Jurchen is powerful, and I was only worried that this Bianliang City would no longer be able to hold it, but now that I can learn that there are still people fighting outside, I have some hope in my heart. I know that Wen Fang is also campaigning for this matter, and I will go to the city wall to help later, without further delay. Liheng is outside the city, and if we can meet at this time, I have a thousand words to say to him, but now that I think about it, I can only make a little effort if I go to the place related to this war. As for the love of children. In the face of this matter, what is the foot? β
Su Wenfang was slightly stunned, and then arched his hand: "Eh...... Teacher, girl, do what you can, please take care. He felt that he could not dissuade him from doing so, but then he added. Brother-in-law is a person who values feelings, and he once said in the past that everything he does is for the people around him. The teacher girl has a great relationship with her brother-in-law, and I may be selfish in what I say, but ...... If the brother-in-law returns from victory and can't see the teacher, he will be sad in his heart, if it's just for this matter. I also hope that the teacher girl will take care of her body. Don't ...... Lost on the battlefield. β
Shishi was also silent for a moment, and then, with a smile on his face: "Then I'...... Well, will try to take care of their ......"
Su Wenfang is Su Tan'er's younger brother, theoretically speaking, he should be on Su Tan'er's side, and he should be alienated from women who have an affair with Ning Yi. However, he didn't know if Ning Yi had an affair with his teacher. Just said to the possible reasons, "If you have feelings, I hope that your brother-in-law will come back and you are still alive." Don't make him sad", this is out of respect for Ning Yi. As for the teacher's side, whether she has feelings for Ning Yi or not, Ning Yi has not shown too many traces of crossing the line in the past, and the meaning of the answer at this time is quite complicated.
It's just as she said. In the face of war, what is the purpose of children's personal affairs?
Walking out of the warm pavilion where she was talking to Su Wenfang, she walked through the long corridor, the courtyard was covered with white snow inside and out, and she dragged her long skirt. Originally, his steps were still fast, but when he walked around the corner, he gradually stopped, raised his head, let out a long breath, and smiled on his face: It's good to be sure of this.
In the corner of the courtyard, beside the lonely stone bench and stone table, the plum blossoms on a tree bloomed, and the sparse red snow bloomed.
The master returned to her courtyard, where some people were still waiting for her, and she confessed her guilt and was about to go in to change her clothes, but everyone came to dissuade her, saying that a woman like her should not go to the battlefield and danger. Shi Shi just politely perfunctory a few words to them, until she came out wearing clothes that were convenient for action, similar to a few people in Hezhong, most of them were people who had a deep friendship with Shi Shi in the past, Yu He Zhongdao: The battlefield is ruthless, we are worried about you, and I also know that Bianliang City has reached an insoluble crisis this time, and we also want to go to the battlefield, but first, I have an official position and can't go away, and second, I hate to be powerless, and I still have wives and children and parents at home......
In fact, Yu Hezhong's official status is right, but his official position is not involved in the war this time, and it is not very compatible with logistics, and he still has a wife and children and parents at home, so he may not be able to kill the enemy when he goes to the battlefield...... And so on and so forth, the teacher knows it. She used to know best the weaknesses of people, whether vanity, pride, greed, lust...... can understand, and for this kind of people, there is no contempt at all, Yu and the middle people are not likely to have frequent contact with her as an oiran, after all, they can't afford to pay, and their status is not enough, but the teacher treats them as good friends, and often asks them to play and know some high-status people......
She felt that weakness in people's hearts was a normal thing for anyone, and the same was true in her own heart, and she should not make any accusations. Similar to going to the battlefield to help, she only persuades others, and will never make too strong demands, just because she feels that her life is her own, and she is willing to put it in a dangerous place, but she should never force others so much. But only at this moment, she felt that Yu He was annoying, and she really wanted to scold something loudly.
But she didn't do it after all, and after saying goodbye to everyone with a smile, she still didn't take the maid with her, but called the coachman in the building to take her to the city wall. On the way in the carriage, she forgot about these people who came this morning, and remembered Ning Yi outside the city, he let the Jurchens eat a turtle, the Jurchens would not let him go, what would happen next. She thought of the Jurchens who had come in last night, and of the people who had died in front of her eyes, the knives slashed into the body, cut off the limbs, cut open the stomach, and cut off the head, the blood flowed, and the bloody breath filled the air, and the flames burned the wounded to the ground, making a terrible scream that people will never forget for the rest of their lives...... Thinking of this, she felt that she had no strength in her body, and wanted to make the carriage turn back. In such a place, he may also die, as long as the Jurchens rush in a few more times, or if they break the city, they are close, and they can't escape at all, and if the Jurchens enter the city, if they are caught, they may not be able to die......
It's not that you don't have to be afraid......
So she chose the hardest and sharpest hairpin, held it in her hand, and then put it in her hair.
When she was powerless, she thought: If I die and Liheng comes back, will he really be sad for me? He never showed his mind about this. Does he like me, and do I like him?
But anyway. She thought: If Liheng really has thoughts about himself, even if it is just for the name of his Oiran or his body, he probably won't refuse. That's not ...... at all It's okay.
If you die......
Such thoughts made her indulge in it, but in any case, the fortified area near the city walls. Soon it will be there. She got out of the car, and the Jurchens had already begun to attack the city.
Huge stones shook the walls, arrows roared, blood filled, shouts, hysterical roars, mournful sounds of annihilation of life. The crowd around her was running, and she was hit by a group of people rushing towards the city wall, and her body fell forward. With one hand propped up on the gravel and blood coming out, she got up, took out a piece of cloth and wiped her hands as she ran, with which she wrapped her hair in the direction of the wounded barracks.
Inside and outside the huge wall not far away, countless people surged upward. Submerged and devoured in a vast killing field, the seriously wounded staring at the sky in pools of blood. All around, there are shadows of fighting.
- Dead line.
******************
ββ¦β¦ The Jurchens continued their siege. β
The scout brought the news, and on the edge of the snow, Ning Yi was brushing his teeth with a homemade toothbrush mixed with salty powder, and after spitting out the foam, he touched Bai Sensen's front teeth with his fingers. The scout pouted.
"Take care of your teeth." He said.
Hai Dongqing flies in the sky.
When Hongti came over, he saw him sitting on a rock at the edge of the camp, looking at the vast sea of snow in front of him. She walked over and sat down next to him and took his hand.
"Worried about Bianliang?"
"I'm worried."
"You also say it's useless to worry."
"But I still can't help it." Ning Yi smiled and hugged her shoulders.
Among the camps in the ruins of the town. It was only in the early hours of the morning that they fell asleep, and the civilians who woke up at this time ate the food that had been handed down while looking at the figures of the soldiers standing in rows not far away.
Scouts have been sent out in large numbers, and the men in charge of defense have also been arranged, and the remaining half of the soldiers who have not been injured have already entered the training state, and most of them are people from Luliang Mountain. They just stood straight in the snow, row after row, column after column, each one in unison, standing tall and not moving in the slightest.
Monotonous and boring training can temper the will.
Qin Shaoqian was also paying attention to the news of Bianliang City, but soon after, he was also attracted by these soldiers who were standing and training, and at this time, there were also some officers in this team who were his original subordinates, and they also led elite soldiers, and he was slightly puzzled.
"How long is this going to stand? The Jurchens may come at any time, and they can't move all the time standing, what should they do if they get frostbitten? β
"Frostbite?" Someone asked Ning Yi, Ning Yi shook his head, "Don't think about it." β
The real king of soldiers, a military posture can stand for several days without moving, and now that the Jurchens may call at any time, the extreme training of the exercise body is not easy to carry out, and they have to exercise their will. After all, the scouts are far away, and if the Jurchens really come over, everyone can relax and recover their combat strength. As for frostbite...... The army that was used by Ning Yi as a standard, in order to sneak attack the enemy, the soldiers in the entire position in the ice and snow were frozen to death, and they still maintained an ambush posture. Relative to this criterion, frostbite is not considered.
Of course, such an army cannot be created by a simple military posture, what is needed is to fight again and again, temper again and again, and cross life and death again and again. If there really is such an army now, let alone frostbite, the Jurchens and Mongols don't have to think about it.
Now, you have to take your time.
Because of Ning Yi's speech yesterday, there was no manic atmosphere in the camp after winning the battle throughout the day, and what remained was bloodthirsty silence and the depression of wanting to fight with anyone at any time. In the afternoon, everyone was allowed to move for a while, Ning Yi had already informed them of the battle that was taking place in Bianliang at the moment, and in the evening, everyone was arranged into groups to discuss the situation in front of them.
For these soldiers, there are not many things they understand, and most of what can be said in their mouths is to rush over to do something like that, and there are also a small number of people who can say which side we eat first, and then which side to eat, even though most of them are unreliable, Ning Yi doesn't mind, he just wants to keep this tradition.
In this war, any low-level soldier does not have the right to know about the war, even if they encounter the enemy on the battlefield, receive the enemy, and fight, they can usually only see dozens or hundreds of people around them in the crowd. Or when you see the handsome flag in the distance, once the battle collapses, or when the handsome flag falls, everyone only knows how to run with them, and people farther away only know how to run along. And the so-called military law team, what can be killed is only the soldiers in the last row. The avalanche effect is often caused by such causes. The situation on the entire battlefield, no one knows.
The wind is on one side, and people's hearts are like grass, so they can only run along.
This situation continued throughout the history of warfare in ancient times, into modern times. The same is true for most of the military. At that time, only the rabbit army was able to fight spontaneously in small groups when the entire organization was scattered and divided, and even lost all high-level contacts and orders, and the enemy who surrounded and divided them was so busy that it was impossible to tell who was surrounded.
Later, to resist US aggression and aid Korea. The American Eagle was surprised to find out that the battle plan of the Rabbit Army. From top to bottom, almost every soldier at the grassroots level can know that they have a tradition of participating in the discussion of battle plans, which is extremely strange, but it guarantees one thing, and that is that even if contact is lost. Every soldier still knows what he wants to do, why he does it, and even if the battlefield is chaotic, they will still spontaneously correct it when they know the purpose.
The so-called subjective initiative is nothing more than that.
Of course. In order to do such a thing, the requirements for the military are also extremely comprehensive, first of all, loyalty and whether intelligence will be leaked are the most important considerations. A strong army must not be extreme, but comprehensive.
However, things can be done to some extent in front of you......
At least in yesterday's battle, when a pillar of smoke suddenly rose in the Jurchen camp, the combat power of the frontal attacking army could suddenly swell, and this is precisely because of this.
The day was spent in quiet training on this side of the town. More than ten miles away in Bianliang City, Zongwang's offensive against the city wall did not stop, but the people inside the city wall resisted the attack wave after wave with an almost desperate attitude, even though the blood flowed like a river and the casualties were heavy, this defensive posture became more resolute.
Zong Wang was a little surprised.
When attacking the Liao State, they also encountered powerful teams, such as Xiao Gan, such as Yelu Dashi and others, these are all strong generals, and they also have elite soldiers, they have made stubborn resistance, and they have also relied on superior troops, so that their side has suffered the bitter fruit of defeat, but it is different in front of them.
The people of the Wu Dynasty were cowardly, greedy for life and afraid of death, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers was low, but at this moment, they filled the ...... with human lives
Although there are some stupid Confucian students in the Wu Dynasty who are not afraid of death, but after all, there are a few, how did they do this scene in front of them......
And when can it be done?
He was suddenly a little curious.
And while besieging the city and generating this doubt, he is also paying attention to another side of things.
The army that attacked Mu Huogang was waiting for more than ten miles away, what was it going to do.
Compared to Bianliang City, which can only be defended at the moment, the appearance of this mysterious Wu Dynasty army gave him a slight sense of oppression.
After the sneak attack on Mu Huogang, he had already strengthened the defense of the large camp outside Bianliang City to eliminate the possibility of a sneak attack. However, if the other party takes advantage of the siege of the city and suddenly kills without fear of death, there is still the possibility of forcing himself to start a two-way battle.
However, even if he attacked the city so fiercely, after the sneak attack, the other party widened the distance from Mu Huogang, but he did not come to his side, nor did he go back to the army to which he might have belonged, but stopped at the triangular point of Bianliang and Mu Huogang. Because of its existence and deterrence, it was impossible for the Jurchens to send troops out to find food for the time being, and even the exchanges between Bianliang and the Muhuogang camp had to become more cautious.
Whether the other party doesn't want to know where they are going, or is waiting for reinforcements to arrive, raiding Bianliang to relieve the siege, or weaving an ambush around there - in any case, the appearance of flies always makes people feel a little uncomfortable.
"What is Pharmacist Guo doing?" Zong Wang wanted to continue urging, but before the order was issued, the scout had already sent information.
"At noon today, General Guo led the Changsheng army to fight with the Western Army of the Wu Dynasty at Chengpudu, and the Western Army was defeated. General Guo judged that the division took the initiative to retreat, and pretended to be defeated, which was actually an empty city, and he had led the cavalry to outflank and pursue. β
The victorious army fought against the Western Army, and the Western Army did not take the initiative to retreat, but feinted, in fact, in order to confuse Guo Yaoshi so that he would no longer chase after him. But Pharmacist Guo is also a person who has been in battle for a long time. Whether it is a real defeat or a feint, after concluding that the other party does not have the ability to ambush and counterattack, he directly kills the past. But Zong Wang didn't care about these battles.
"In the past, I don't care how he deals with the Western Army, let him take care of the middle plate first!" He waved his hand on the map in front of him. "Let him give me these four thousand men!"
Receiving the order, the scout quickly left.
In the camp in the ruins of the town, the campfire burned and made a faint sound. In the room, Ning Yi and the others also received the news.
"The planter is unwilling to fight hard with Guo Yaoshi, although I have thought about it for a long time, but I still have some regrets."
"It's human nature. There are more than 36,000 people in the Changsheng army, all of whom are elites who can deal with Zongwang, and they are under the command of the seed master. There are only twenty-four thousand, and when the fight starts, the victory or defeat is miserable, and the siege cannot be solved. Qin Siyuan sighed.
"I don't know anything." Red asked, "If you don't want to fight, why don't you take the initiative to retreat." and to feint and retreat, and now the other party has seen through it. He also had casualties. β
"I think...... After all, the Western Army has some fame, try whether the other party is resolute in fighting, on the other hand, this time it is a feint, and it is recognized by the other party, and next time it may really lure the enemy deeper. If the other party has the inertia of thinking, he will be tricked. It should be because of the master's clever command of the army that he dared to do this...... Well, that's all I can think of. Ning Yi tilted his head, "But." Next, it may be necessary to turn around and eat us. β
In his own hands, there are only more than 4,000 people who can really fight, whether it is Ning Yi or Qin Shaoqian, they originally also fought the expectation that the Western Army might be able to kill part of the other party's army, and even worked hard to release the news that it was the Western Army that was ready to break the Yellow River.
If the planter knew about this, he didn't know what kind of temper he would have. But at this point, with so few chips available, they can't do anything about it.
Han Jing came over from the side: "Is it possible to transfer the more than 1,000 people we have rescued to other places, and we will also pretend to transfer, let these people attract their attention first?" β
To the north of Bianliang, more than 300,000 troops had been routed for several months, and several armies had regrouped at this time. But they couldn't be beaten at that time, let alone at this time.
Ning Yi shook his head: "They are originally soft persimmons, they will break when they poke, and they still have a sense of zΓ i if they are kept, so forget it." As for the more than 1,000 people......"
When he said this, he paused slightly, and everyone looked at him. These more than 1,000 people, after all, their identities are sensitive, they were captured by the Jurchens, tortured, and their physique is weak. Now that the camp is being watched by scouts, how to send these people away and where to send them are all problems. Once the Jurchen real army presses in, more than 4,000 people on their side will be transferred, and the other party will be a burden.
"Of these more than 1,000 people, I first want to bring them back to Xia Village." Ning Yi said, "Yes, they are not in good health, their fighting spirit is not high, and when they go to the battlefield, more than a thousand people combined, they can't reach thirty or fifty, and they still have to eat, but it is also necessary to let the people of Xia Village look at them." They are miserable, so they are very valuable, let others see it, and if the publicity is good, the more than 10,000 people in Xia Village may be able to increase the combat power of quite a thousand people...... Then, I'll find a way to send them away. β
Even with yesterday's foreshadowing, Ning Yi's words at this time were still ruthless. Everyone listened silently, and Qin Shaoqian nodded first: "I think it's okay." β
"Let's walk for the rest. The next thing is to see when others come to beat us......" Ning Yi looked at his hand, "He Bianliang can't hold it up......"
There are 36,000 victorious troops, more than 10,000 Mu Huogang, and more than 50,000 outside Bianliang City, no matter what, 4,000 people are really too few and too few.
Outside the ruins of the town, in the snowy mountains, and in the woods, small-scale conflicts occasionally broke out in this night, and the searching, fighting, and collision between the scouts never stopped......
Bianliang, Shi Shi sat in the corner munching on steamed buns, her body and hands were full of blood, just now, a wounded soldier died in front of her eyes.
The fighting stopped at night, and after the large camp of grain and grass was burned, the Jurchens seemed to become unhurried. In fact, at night, the gap in combat power between the two sides will be shortened, and the Jurchens will also pay a big price when they attack the city at night.
The encouragement received in the morning, by this time, seemed to be a whole winter, and the encouragement was only for a moment, and in any case, so many dead people brought only torment and constant fear. Even if she was hiding in the camp for wounded soldiers, she didn't know when the city wall might be breached, when the Jurchens would be killed, or raped......
But she felt as if she was going to get used to the war.
So she hid in the corner. While nibbling on steamed buns, I thought of Ning Yilai, so that I would not be nauseated.
This is the only thing in her heart that can be used to fight this kind of thing right now. A little thought, just curled up in that corner with her, no one knows.
Xue Changgong stood on the city wall and looked up at the moon in the sky.
Ahead is the Jurchen camp, it seems. It was so close at hand, and so was the attack of the Jurchens, and in the past few days, they could rush over at any time and anywhere, turning this place into a river of blood. It's the same right now.
But in any case, at this moment, the city was sighingly quiet in this night. These days. Xue Changgong has been promoted, and there are more and more subordinates under him. It's also becoming more and more unfamiliar.
The familiar man died, and new ones came in, and he became more and more indifferent when he was alone on the wall.
Sometimes, he would really want to go to the Alum Tower and find He Lei'er. Hold her body, comfort yourself, or call her to the barracks. With his current status, no one said anything about doing this, after all, he was too tired. When the Jurchens stopped, he rested in the barracks, and no one would say anything. But he didn't.
Maybe...... All will die......
Looking back, there were thousands of lights in Bianliang City, some of them were still celebrating the victory that was announced this morning, they didn't know the tragic situation on the city wall, and they didn't know that although the Jurchens were secretly attacked, they were still attacking the city unhurriedly - after all, what they were burned was only six or seven percent of the grain and grass in it.
They can still keep attacking the city.
But how long can it last here?
On this night, the Jurchens bypassed the attacking northern city wall and launched a sneak attack on the west wall of Bianliang City.
The teacher woke up in his sleep.
She thought that the Jurchens had come in, and when she woke up screaming, several wounded people next to her looked at her, and someone said to her, "Miss Shishi, you should find a place to sleep well." β
She smiled, rubbed her face and stood up. In fact, it was not quiet in the wounded barracks, there were seriously wounded people next to him, some people had been screaming, the doctor and the helpers were running around, she looked at a few wounded people next to her, there was a wounded man who had been moaning, but there was no sound at this time, the man was cut off a leg, he was stabbed several times, and a knife wound on his face turned out his skin and flesh, which was quite hideous. As he crouched down beside him, he saw one of his hands drooping, his eyes open, his eyes full of blood, and his teeth clenchingβbecause he had been gritting his teeth and glaring desperately when he was in painβhe had died in such a posture.
The master knelt down beside him, reached out and touched the wound on his face, the terrible wound she felt no longer disgusting in her heart, and then she closed her eyes for him, and went out to find the man who cleaned up the body and carried him away.
The moonlight was sprinkled, and the division stood in the silver light, surrounded by the buzzing voices of people, the soldiers who came and went, and the people who were responsible for defending the city...... This is just the beginning of a long ordeal.
She walked back and saw the people in pain inside, some she already knew and some she didn't. Even if she didn't scream, most of them were moaning or panting rapidly, and she squatted down to hold the hand of a young wounded soldier, who opened his eyes and looked at her, and said with difficulty, "Miss Shishi, you really should go and rest......"
"yes, it will." She nodded, looked at the people in the area, and said, "Why don't I sing you a tune......
That's what she's best at, really......
Snow then fell again, and in the city of Bianliang, a long winter.
Outside the city, the same difficult and tragic and decisive battle is about to begin...... (To be continued......)
PS: Well, today is my birthday, thirty years old. Although I didn't finish writing the seventh episode, I did my best, and it's hard to say whether there will be a birthday essay, and when I get up from sleep, if I'm in the mood, I might write something casually.
I found out that this chapter is 10,000 words.
