Volume 1 Don't Look Back Chapter 45 Die Generously
The hustle and bustle at the city gate attracted many Qin onlookers, and Sun Jian blocked the city gate tightly. When Wu Shang and Qin Chuan approached the city gate, they heard the shouting and scolding of the sergeant, the cry of the man for mercy, and the crying of the woman and the child.
Through the discussion of everyone next to him, Qin Chuan understood what was going on. It turned out that a merchant was pulling a cart of goods into the city, but for some reason, the cart loaded with goods suddenly fell to the ground, and the goods on the cart were suddenly scattered all over the ground, blocking the city gate.
The sergeant at the city gate hurriedly scolded the merchant to take the goods away, but because the car broke down and the goods were scattered all over the ground, the merchant's movement was a little slow, but the people who wanted to enter the city blocked the city gate.
Looking at the growing crowd outside the city gate, the sergeants at the city gate were a little irritable, punching and kicking the merchants, and several sergeants brutally threw the goods scattered on the ground aside.
Seeing that his goods were thrown away, the merchant immediately knelt on the ground, kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, saying that those were all his net worth, and he must not lose them, otherwise the family would starve to death and freeze to death.
The sergeant ignored the merchant's actions and threw the goods aside from the gates. The merchant, however, had the courage to get up and rush towards the sergeant, using the protection he had to protect his goods from damage.
The sergeant at the gate saw that the culprit was willing to resist, and instantly became enraged, and the two sergeants began to punch and kick the merchant, and the gate became chaotic.
Wu Shang stood in the crowd, watching what was happening at the city gate, and always felt a little weird.
Boom, boom.
A sound kept coming from a distance, and at first everyone didn't pay attention, but as the sound got louder and louder, the ground seemed to shake slightly.
Wu Shang's face changed, and just as he wanted to speak, someone said one step earlier than him: "Oh no, the enemy is attacking the city, everyone hurry up." ”
Wu Shang turned his head, but found that the man had left the place, leaving only a vague figure.
"Enemy attack, close the city gates." The sergeant standing at the city gate also noticed the strange situation in the distance, and shouted loudly to the sergeant defending the city.
The crowd of onlookers inside the city quickly dispersed, while the crowd outside the city that did not enter the city began to storm the city gates, all wanting to enter the city as soon as possible.
In an instant, the city gate was in chaos, and the soldiers defending the city could not close the city gate, on the one hand, the crowd was constantly attacking, and on the other hand, the cart of goods actually blocked the city gate, and if the thought was to close the city gate, the cart of goods must be removed. At this time, the merchant was nowhere to be found.
"It's not good, if you are fooled, close the city gate quickly, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." A sergeant shouted loudly.
The sergeants on the city gate also came down to join the ranks of closing the city gate, and the blocking of trucks and the crowding of pedestrians made the already small city gate instantly crowded.
The sergeant who spoke just now drew the long knife in his hand and shouted at the panicked crowd: "Don't worry, enter one by one, otherwise don't blame my men for being ruthless." ”
Looking at the bright long knife, everyone suddenly quieted down, and walked towards the city one by one, at this moment, a voice sounded in the crowd: "Mom, so many cavalry, everyone run." ”
The sergeant who spoke just now raised his eyebrows and glanced at his companion beside him, the companion nodded, walked to the city gate, and waited for the man who spoke just now to come out, drew a long knife and put it on the man's neck, the man showed a look of panic on his face, and then knelt in front of the two and kept begging for mercy.
"Who are you? Why is it disturbing? Aren't you afraid that your head will be lost? The sergeant asked loudly.
"The villain was originally a small person in the mountains and wilderness, and he found a strange thing a few days ago, so he came to the city, hoping to find someone who knows the goods to exchange blood and silver money, so as to subsidize the family."
"Take it out, if what you say is not true, you will be punished for collaborating with the enemy and treason." A sergeant stared at the man, seemingly unconvinced by his words.
The man stood up, patted the dust on his legs, and then, with a smile on his face, put one hand into his bosom, and whispered, "Two generals, take a good look." ”
I saw that the man's hand quickly came out of his arms, and a snow-white light appeared in front of the eyes of the two sergeants, and before they could understand what it was, the two sergeants felt a pain in their throats, and their eyes revealed a look of disbelief, holding their throats with both hands, and their bodies staggered to the ground, constantly struggling, and then there was no trace of breath.
The man was holding a sharp dagger in his hand, and just now he took advantage of the two sergeants' inattention to cut off their throats.
All this happened between the calcium carbide firelight, and everyone only saw two sergeants convulsing and falling to the ground, and everyone was stunned for a while, and there was a trace of horror.
The corners of the man's mouth curled slightly, and his figure moved quickly, charging towards the other sergeants.
Wu Shang stood aside, and was also shocked when he saw the man's movements, and he didn't care about anything else, he said a word to Qin Chuan, and rushed towards the assassin with the long sword in his hand.
The man moved his body quickly, and in his heart he constantly despised the vulnerability of the Qin State sergeant. He was an Assassin who had been with his master for many years, and this time his master had taken him with him during his lobbying of the Rongdi tribe. After a few years of lurking, today can finally shine, as long as the soldiers defending the city can be eliminated, and the city gate is not closed, and when the Rongdi army arrives, the city will be at your fingertips.
The assassin was still fantasizing in his heart, when he suddenly felt a sense of crisis coming, and his body was stunned, and a flash of sword light slashed down from the place just now.
The assassin looked at Wu Shang, who had attacked him, with an angry look in his eyes.
"Hurry up and leave, you can still save your life." Wu Shang said loudly to the assassin.
The assassin didn't talk nonsense, his figure instantly accelerated, and he rushed towards Wu Shang with the dagger in his hand. Wu Shang was also not polite, the long sword in his hand was lightly raised, and the long sword collided with the dagger.
The two attacked each other, and they separated in an instant, Wu Shang was a little dignified, but the assassin put away his contempt. Through the temptation just now, both of them understood each other's strength.
Equal, equal.
Without any extra nonsense, the two began to fight again, and the people around them were far away, watching the two fight. The crowd at the city gate finally entered the city, and some Qin people in the city also began to help the soldiers at the city gate move the goods blocking the city gate.
Outside the city gate, a few miles away, a team of about thousands of people began to retreat towards the city, they were the Qin army stationed outside the city of Yuanyuan, and when they saw the approaching Rong Di troops, they chose to retreat.
The Rongdi tribe can be said to have poured out of the nest this time, with sixteen leaders in front, behind them are 20,000 Rongdi tribal soldiers, and the other 10,000 Rongdi soldiers were taken away by the middle-aged man. As for where he went, he did not disclose it to the leaders. But with only a team of 20,000 people, plus some other plans from the middle-aged man, it was still a matter of capturing a Ranhara City.
They had been shrouded in the shadow of the Great Qin Sergeant for too long, and it was time for those demons to know that the grassland children were wolves, not sheep.
"Take the city of Porhara and slaughter the city for three days." One of the leaders looked at the city of Inobara in front of him and shouted loudly.
"Slaughter the city, slaughter the city." The 20,000 Rong Di soldiers behind him spoke up one after another.
The 20,000 Rong Di soldiers rushed towards the city of Fenyuan like a long black arrow, and the Qin army of a team of 1,000 people not far from the Rong Di army watched the busy crowd at the gate of the city gate of the city from a distance, and the general led by him immediately waved his hand, and the team of 1,000 people suddenly stopped in place.
"Everyone listen, in front of us is the city that we have guarded for many years, now that Rong Di is approaching, our Qin people have never had a precedent for escaping, for the sake of the Qin people in Yuanyuan City, we must do our best to delay the speed of the enemy's army, otherwise, once the city is broken, everyone's lives will be lost."
The team of more than 1,000 people stopped in place, behind them was the Rong Di army that was getting closer and closer, and in front of them was the city of Yuanyuan and the tens of thousands of Qin people in the city.
"Fight to the death and not retreat, for the sake of Ranhara City." A sergeant shouted.
"Fight to the death." Everyone seemed to have a choice, and they responded loudly.
"Okay, you dare to fight with me, for the sake of the Yuan City, for the Qin people in the Yuanyuan City." The general's eyes were red and he shouted loudly.
"Old Qin, go to the national disaster together." One sergeant shouted, and the others responded. A tragic aura permeated the crowd.
The general took the lead and rushed towards the ranks of the Rongdi tribe, and behind him were thousands of comrades who got along day and night, and now for the sake of the city of Yuanyuan, for the sake of the Qin people in the city of Yuanyuan, they rushed towards the enemy without hesitation, although they knew that there was a huge disparity in strength, although they all understood that they would definitely die, but so what, because they were Qin people, they were the army of Qin.
At the city gate, whether it was an ordinary Qin person or a soldier guarding the city, they couldn't help but have a sense of respect in their hearts when they saw this scene, and then they accelerated the speed of closing the city gate.
The leaders of the Rongdi tribe saw that this team of 1,000 people dared to charge at them, and they were a little contemptuous in their hearts.
In just an instant, the team of 20,000 people swallowed up the team of 1,000 people, whether it was the Qin army or the sergeants of the Rongdi tribe, as long as they got off the horse, they were trampled into pulp by the war horses behind.
A thousand people were sent to death without hesitation, but it was to gain precious time for the city to close the city gates, and when the city gates were completely closed, the army of the Rongdi tribe also rushed to the city.
A rain of swords shot out from the city tower, and immediately shot several Rong Di soldiers standing in front of the horse, and the leaders looked at the closed city gate with annoyance, so they waved their hands, and the 20,000 Rong Di tribes began to retreat neatly, until they retreated to a place three miles outside the city, and did not stop.
