A little starlight bloomed, and billowing smoke rose.

In a city of Utan on the border of Beidi, the whole city was filled with blood and violence, and the people were in a panic, pulling the tattered little four-wheeled chariots, carrying sacks for cloth and shoes, holding underage children in their hands, and beside the old mother, who was seventy or eighty. At this time, the east gate had been breached, and Beidi's army rushed into the city, and the sonorous sound of shouting and killing and the collision of swords, guns, swords, and halberds resounded throughout the east gate.

"Brothers, for the sake of our family, for the sake of the old and weak women and children behind us, we must buy them enough time to escape today."

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man with five big and three thick, and he was also one of the main generals in the entire Utan City.

"Look, it's General Li."

A little soldier said excitedly.

Unexpectedly, General Li actually came to the battlefield in person, and shouted to the soldiers below with a microphone at the head of the wall that was only ten steps away: "Brothers, our efforts today are the carefree of our family tomorrow, today we charge, and tomorrow the people will remember us!" Heroes don't need great feats, they just need to do their duty! ”

Under the encouragement of General Li, everyone was like a tiger with hormones, forgetting the pain and fear, the battlefield was still the same battlefield, but the soldiers on the battlefield were no longer the same group of soldiers as before. They are clad in armor that has disappeared without a trace, waiting for a slogan, a mantra that will make them warriors in armor!

"Why haven't you completely captured Utan City, and you can be beaten out when you enter the city gate? Do you eat dry food? Do you still want to live in my Beidi? Perhaps, when you go back, you will be despised by your descendants, rejected by the people, and ridiculed by the whole country? It's ridiculous! ”

A general in Beidi angrily rebuked several battalion-level cadres under his command.

"Tell the general, we should have been like a bamboo, straight to the enemy's base camp, but a general suddenly appeared on the head of the city, it is because of him, the enemy soldiers rushed to our soldiers like crazy, we originally attacked the city There are not many troops, and when attacking the city, they were all wounded by swords and skin pain, so they were defeated and defeated, in order to only lose, their subordinates could only temporarily evacuate, and I hope the general will decide."

The person who spoke was a military advisor of Beidi, surnamed Song Ziqi, who was the chief general of Beidi's expedition to the Central Plains Forward Army, and the combat instructor of the Forward Army specially selected by Yalu Qi Yeer.

The general was furious, pointed at Song Ziqi and said: "You dare to evacuate without authorization, Utan City is the first battle of our Beidi army, and it is also the opening battle to inspire the rear army, this battle has attracted much attention from above, if you can't take it, you will come and see you." ”

The speaking general's name is Yaluban Saijun, the eldest son of Yale Qiyeer, arrogant and domineering, impulsive and brainless, without any great talent, with his father's identity, he also mixed up the name of a forward general. In this battle, Yale Qiye wanted his son to achieve great achievements, so he let his son be this nominal forward general, and the military advisor Song Ziqi was the powerful and real forward commander, so when attacking the city, Song Ziqi could quickly withdraw the soldiers with his own words.

"Yes, the little general only needs to give me three days, and I will take Utan City, otherwise I will bear the consequences alone, as evidenced by the military order."

Song Ziqi clasped his hands, and his long sleeves fluttered slightly in the air.

Yalebansai had a look of fear on his face, and then regained his composure.

"The military order will be waived, but I limit you to take Utan City within three days, otherwise, you, the military division, will be punished by the military and bear the main responsibility. These generals under his command will also be punished accordingly. ”

Song Ziqi and a group of generals retreated and went down the middle hall.

"This is Li Zhi's information, he was originally a small soldier in the Central Plains, in a beacon fire, because he followed the generals to make great achievements, so he was promoted, and was reused by Wei Chihou, the lieutenant of the Central Plains, to guard the frontier, and is currently the general of Utan City. Today, it is this person who has hindered our siege plan, and it seems that this person's position in the hearts of the soldiers of Yatan City should not be underestimated, and it should not be a general person. Tonight, you will issue a bounty order, and say, whoever can take Li Zhiren's head, the bounty will be 10,000 taels and the official will be promoted to one level. ”

A battalion commander said: "That Utan City, the city wall is towering into the sky, and the soldiers are extremely brave, how can we take down Li Zhi's head?" Besides, Li Zhi is the leader of the enemy, so he won't show his head easily. ”

Song Ziqi said: "This question is very good, if we attack the city normally, then it is of course almost impossible to take off Li Zhiren's head, but what if we lure him down?" Maybe we captured his wife and children? He won't watch his wife and children die tragically, as long as we release the news that Li Zhi's mother and daughter are in our hands, if we don't immediately put down our weapons and tie our hands to be captured, our wives and children will be in a different place. He was so embarrassed. ”

The next day, everyone in the barracks cheered, all of them were full of interest, they had been in the army for many years, and their military exploits were also big and small, but in front of this opportunity to make a fortune, everyone was grinding their fists, if they wanted to return to their hometown, if they wanted to become famous in a war, then, when the opportunity came, they had to seize it fiercely, in order to achieve eternal feats.

"I'm going to get this bounty this time, and I'm going to give him to my mother, because I can't bear to see them suffer."

It was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old man who spoke, and he left a deep knife mark on his hand, because the war was tight, and the soldiers were in short supply, and he was caught in the army when he was very young and became a soldier who raised the barracks, but the sudden forward battalion needed a lot of human resources, and the adult strong man was no longer enough to supply the barracks, so the age requirement was relaxed to 16 years old, and he was also a minor soldier, an upright and enthusiastic age, he had seen countless heroic deeds and heard many inspirational stories of generals, So there is also a big hero in this little soul.

"I also want to be promoted and get rich, so that those who look down on us will look up to us."

Next to the young man was a sixteen-year-old boy, with thick black hair and a young face, which made people feel that a newborn calf was not afraid of tigers.

"Yes, we're the big heroes who got the bounty."

The two boys walked forward as they spoke, one step at a time, looking frivolous and arrogant, but when they reached the barracks, they found that their baggage had been turned upside down, and a few idle clothes and a military hat were faintly falling outside.

"Who did this? When I caught him, I had to pull out his skin. ”

The young people were very angry, but it could be seen from their baggage that some people wanted to bully them when they saw that they were young, and they had no other friends when they first arrived at the barracks, so the two depended on each other, so after two hours of clueless rummaging and interrogation, they left hastily with the necessary military equipment.

At the east gate of Utan City, the weather was cold and dry, and thick smoke was rising from the land, but the sky was full of dark clouds.

"Li Zhi, come out and die, otherwise your wife and children will die for your cowardice."

A soldier took the megaphone in his hand and said hoarsely. For fear that the enemy would not be able to hear him, his voice sounded a bit deliberately contrived.

"Tell General Li that the enemy said that he had captured your mother and daughter, and threatened, let you go to the meeting alone, otherwise your wife and children will be poisoned by the enemy, please give the general an order, we will kill the general together, take the head of the general of Beidi, and everything is over."

Li Zhi's subordinates and others knelt down in front of the general one after another, and everyone was angry, which made people so frightened.

"You get up, now we are weak, Beidi is out of the army, if we go out rashly, we will be annihilated, with eggs to hit the stone, when the time comes, not only the whole army will be destroyed, but also the city will be lost, so how can I explain to the emperor of the dynasty? How can I be right for the Son of Heaven to know me? Do not condemn me to unkindness and unrighteousness. ”

Seeing that they couldn't be dissuaded, everyone got up, and one of the general's right-hand men Han Li said: "Let me accompany you with the general, if my sister-in-law and niece are really arrested, we will save them even if we do our best." ”

Li Zhi knew that his general had a straightforward temperament and was open-minded, so he did not delay it too much, so as not to hurt the harmony of the soldiers.

"Okay, with you, I will be able to triumph."

At the east gate of Utan City, Li Zhi and the generals came to the head of the city, looking at the soldier who was shouting below, and the cold light was cold.

"The thieves are rampant, I, Li Zhi, are here, if you dare to touch half a hair of my wife and children, I will make you have no return."

However, the soldier holding the microphone had a glimmer of essence in his eyes, and said with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth: "It turned out to be General Li, we came this time without malice, if you can let us in, then of course we will send your wife and children back, and there are precious treasures such as gold and silver to be sent, but if you don't know the current affairs, then don't blame our subordinates for being ruthless." ”

After speaking, the Beidi Guards escorted a middle-aged woman and a seven or eight-year-old girl up, but because the distance was too far, Li Zhi and the others couldn't see the appearance of the old and the young at all, and they could only see a general outline.

"Let me go down and save my sister-in-law,"

Han Li said, his hands inexplicably with two more double knives that he had just snatched from the guards.

"Small parting impulse, now that the enemy is numerous, and it is not yet known how many enemy troops are ambushed outside, such a rash action will inevitably be poisoned by the enemy, and it is difficult to survive, lose the city, and send the future."

Han Li said: "In the past, we have been on the battlefield for several years, how could we have done this kind of thing of shrinking turtles, but now that you are the city lord and guard, you have shrunk your head and tail, which makes me feel uncomfortable." ”

Saying that, Han Li is going to kill the general and go out. And Li Zhi didn't quite understand the enemy's movements, so he didn't know how to stop it, but just dissuaded: "Brother Xian, you must not fall in love with the war, don't chase after you, go over and take a look and come back." If you bring the three hundred wind forest army over, you can also ensure that the virtuous brother is safe and sound. ”

The gates gradually opened. Han Li took three hundred wind forest troops and a strategist, and walked out of the city with the banner of Utan City.
