Volume 1 Don't Look Back Chapter 46 The Siege of the City

Although Wu Shang is excellent in swordsmanship, the assassin is secretive, and he never confronts Wu Shang head-on, and he constantly wanders to find Wu Shang's flaws before he starts to attack.

But with the retirement of time, the number of sergeants around became more, which made the assassin hesitate, when he saw the city gate closed, his heart was shocked, and the body law was a little messy, and the assassin also found his mistake, just wanted to redeem it, but only felt a pain in his arm, Wu Shang's long sword instantly left a deep scar on his arm, and blood suddenly flowed out.

The assassin's arm ached, and when he learned that this was no longer possible, there was a hint of retreat in his heart. As a top swordsman, Wu Shang was naturally able to keenly capture the assassin's thoughts, so he accelerated the offensive power of the long sword in his hand.

Within a short moment, several wounds appeared on the Assassin's body, and blood continued to flow from the wounds, causing the Assassin to feel weak. Dodging vigorously to avoid Wu Shang's fatal blow, the assassin suddenly became in shape, and threw the dagger in his hand vigorously, and his body smashed through a house, which immediately caused a burst of screams.

Wu Shang hurriedly rushed into the house, only to see a woman sitting on the ground with a pale face holding a child, her face full of frightened expressions, and muttering to herself: "Don't kill me, don't kill me." ”

Seeing the blood stains on the ground, Wu Shang hurriedly went out to prepare for the pursuit, at this moment, a team of sergeants surrounded Wu Shang, and the general defending the city appeared in front of Wu Shang wearing armor and carrying a sword at his waist.

"You're you again? Someone came to arrest this spy for me and interrogate him severely. The general guarding the city looked at Wu Shang with an angry face.

The words of the general defending the city completely detonated the anger in Wu Shang's heart, and looking at the inadvertent look on the face of the general guarding the city, he suddenly understood the intention of the general guarding the city.

There should always be a reason to cover up his dereliction of duty afterwards, or someone to be a scapegoat, Wu Shang is a good choice, if he is not a spy, how can he know the news of the siege in advance?

The general defending the city was very happy with his whimsy. He was originally a very small soldier at this time, but because he did something for the son of a big family, he was arranged to be the general guarding the city in Fenyuan City. This made him see the strength of the big family, and also allowed him to find the direction of his future efforts.

The siege of the Rongdi tribe was one thing that he knew very well, because this news was the first thing he knew about and reported to the prince, so he not only won the appreciation of the prince, but also had a lot of promises.

As for the Rongdi tribe not attacking other cities but the city of Yuanyuan, the general who defended the city didn't pay much attention, no matter which city he attacked, that prince would always arrange it. But he also needs to leave a back hand for himself, or a back hand for that son.

This is his reciprocation to that son, and to repay the appreciation of that son.

Facing the surrounding sergeants, Wu Shang slowly raised the long sword in his hand with a cold face.

"Presumptuous, he dared to attack the Great Qin sergeant, arrested him, broke his legs and feet, and interrogated him strictly, he must ask about the intentions of the Rongdi tribe this time." The general of the city guard shouted loudly.

Just when Wu Shang couldn't help but want to make a move, Qin Chuan's pushed away a sergeant, walked to Wu Shang's side, took out the token on his body and looked at the general guarding the city and said, "I have General Che Ying's token here, which can prove to him that he is not a spy." ”

A sergeant took the token from Qin Chuan and handed it to the general defending the city. The general guarding the city repeatedly checked the token in his hand, and he couldn't tell that it was counterfeit at all, and looked at Qin Chuan suspiciously.

"Maybe General Che lost it, or you took the initiative to steal it, and you dared to steal General Qin's token, you are so bold." The general of the city guard took the token into his arms, his face full of anger.

"You're going to give me back the token?" Qin Chuan saw that the token was taken away by the general guarding the city, and said anxiously.

"Hmph, when this battle is over, I will definitely find out from General Che, if it is really given to you, I will definitely apologize in person and let you be punished, if not......." The corners of the city's mouth curled slightly, and he looked at the two of them with disdain.

"Come and put them in prison." The general of the city guard said with a serious face.

"Daliang Zao Wei Ying is my teacher, you can't arrest me. You can ask Daliangzao for verification. Qin Chuan stretched out his hand in front of Wu Shang.

Hearing this, the general defending the city was shocked, he could ignore Che Ying's token, even if that token was indeed real, because the prince's family was not afraid of Che Ying at all, if it was because of offending Wei Ying at this time, I am afraid that the family would not be the enemy of Daliang in order to protect themselves.

Ruthless, the general defending the city looked at Qin Chuan with an expression of disbelief on his face and said: "At a young age, how can you be full of nonsense, how can the students of Daliangzao run to the border?" How can you plead for a spy of an enemy country? ”

The words of the general defending the city made Qin Chuan unable to object, and Wu Shang, who was standing behind Qin Chuan, only held the long sword in his hand and looked at the general defending the city with a murderous face.

"I am the son of the State of Qin, and the Duke of the State of Qin is my father." Qin Chuan's face was calm, and he still protected Wu Shang behind him with his hands open.

Wu Shang was surprised in his heart, and the general who defended the city laughed, stretched out his hand and pointed at Qin Chuan, and said with some regret: "No one in the Qin State knows that the monarch is a son, and I am fortunate to have seen the monarch's son from afar, just by your words, I can conclude that the two of you are indeed the spies of the empire." ”

Seeing that his words didn't have an effect, Qin Chuan sighed, and said to Wu Shang with some grievances: "Brother Wu Shang, I'm really useless, they don't believe what I say, I really didn't lie to them." ”

Seeing Qin Chuan's somewhat aggrieved appearance, Wu Shang touched Qin Chuan's head, and then said: "As a swordsman, there is only one way to reason with people, and that is to draw a sword. After speaking, the hand holding the long sword raised slightly, and the tip of the sword pointed to the general defending the city.

Qin Chuan also looked like Wu Shang, and reached out to grasp the hilt of the long sword named Radish behind his back.

Just when the two sides were tense, a sergeant rushed over in a little panic and said to the general defending the city: "General, it's not good, Rong Di's army has begun to attack the city." ”

"Aren't there a thousand soldiers outside the city, haven't they resisted? It's all a bunch of rice buckets. Say, how many people are in the army of Rongdi? The general looked at the sergeant with some anger.

"It's black, I'm afraid... I'm afraid there must be tens of thousands. The sergeant's words were a little flustered, but they shocked everyone.

"Didn't the spy say there were only a few thousand? How can there be tens of thousands, how can it be? Could it be..."The general guarding the city thought in his heart, and then his face changed greatly, and he didn't care about Qin Chuan and the others, so he ran towards the city tower with the guards around him.

"Hope isn't true, hope isn't true," the general muttered as he ran. If the Rongdi tribe really had an army of tens of thousands instead of thousands, wouldn't that Gongzi ......?"

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and when he arrived at the tower, he saw the Rong Di army in front of him densely packed like a black cloud, his face suddenly turned pale, and his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't move a step.

Qin Chuan and Wu Shang looked at the sergeant who suddenly retreated, they were a little inexplicable, and they couldn't understand why the sergeant defending the city was so panicked.

"What should come is coming." Wu Shang put the long sword in his hand into the scabbard and led Qin Chuan into an inconspicuous house, which was naturally the Mo family's liaison office, and the old man had already left here with everything when he received the order from the general court.

Therefore, it is a relatively safe place to stay for the time being.

"Stay here for the time being, wait for a few days to pass, and then go out." Wu Shang said to Qin Chuan.

"Can you really defeat those Rongdi armies?" Qin Chuan looked at Wu Shang and asked.

"Although there is not much hope, as long as the city can hold out for a few days and hold out until the rescue army of the Qin State arrives here, then this crisis can pass."

"However, the estimates are not very optimistic." Wu Shang hesitated for a moment, but still said the worry in his heart.

"Actually, according to Brother Wu Shang's strength, it's not too difficult to leave here, but why did you stay?" Qin Chuan did opposite Wu Shang and looked up at Wu Shang.

Wu Shang thought about it for a while, and said with some self-deprecation: "I always thought that as long as I practiced my sword well, I could solve many things, such as not being bullied and having a full stomach, so I practiced sword desperately. When I succeed in sword practice, I think that the sword in my hand can solve many things, such as eliminating violence and peace, drawing a sword to help when the road is uneven, and killing a few people to prevent some wars. But now I realize I was wrong. ”

At this time, Wu Shang's face was finally filled with a lonely look, and he sighed before saying: "A person's strength is always limited, what if he can kill one person, ten people, and a hundred people, can he still kill 30,000 people with a sword." But in life, people have to do something, especially when they can do something, and they can't do nothing after all. ”

Qin Chuan looked at Wu Shang in a daze, feeling that the great truth had been finished by him.
