Volume 2: The Waves Chapter 65: Half Crossing

Shaanzhou, the place where soldiers must fight in troubled times, overlooking the mainstay of the Yellow River, looking north at Longmen, adhering to the vast Yu Wang's water traces, the vast Changchun is full of people.

There is a poem: "The flood waves come from the west, and the two sides of the strait are divided equally between Jin and Henan." A reed rushed to the smoke, and the sail carried the moon again. ”

In the 30 years of peace in the world, the former fortress has become the palace of the Son of Heaven, called Hongnong Palace.

Hongnong Palace stands between mountains and rivers, and the scenery is pleasant. In addition to the more than 1,000 guards guarded, the rest were hundreds of palace maids.

Gao Si led the army to arrive, and Sun Ying, the captain of the city, actually defended the city, and in the face of the surrender pawn, he actually beheaded Mingzhi.

"A traitor must not die well! You will fight with me, be loyal to the country, and die alone! Sun Ying scolded, ordered the soldiers to defend the city, and sent messengers to Guanzhong for help.

Under the city, in the far army, Gao Si drew his sword and ordered, and said coldly: "Siege!" ”

Since Yang Xuangan's defeat and Li Mi's escape, whether passive or forced by the situation, he was required to deal with it with a heart of stone.

Therefore, when the news was received from the side of the Chinese army, it immediately ordered to attack the city at all costs.

Responsible for the siege of the city is Yang Jishan's department, after receiving this news, it is in the sound of harmony, several teams of men and horses climbed the wall to attack, in the reminder of the shouting of killing, Sun Ying suddenly woke up, with the defenders arrows shot, knife splitting.

However, it was too late, and Wang Boren, who had just been promoted to centurion, bravely climbed first, leaned on the giant wooden ladder, jumped up to the head of the city, and slashed with his double sword.

"When I die, I live who avoid me!" Wang Boren was stained with blood step by step, and he just gained a firm foothold in the city before he stopped in the three-way drum.

Seeing the hope of breaking the city, Yang Jishan ordered the whole army to press, and even personally led his own soldiers to charge, shouting: "Break the city!" ”

"Break the city! Break the city! Break the city! ”

The morale of the Chu army was like a rainbow, and the generals were brave, and they captured the city in less than a meal and completely occupied the Hongnong Palace.

Gao Si rode his horse to the city, and when he saw the traces of fighting all over the ground, he immediately fell silent.

Yang Jishan stood there, waiting for questioning.

Sure enough, after a while, Gao Si handed the battle report in his hand to Chang He on the side, and asked Yang Jishan: "You have personally experienced the siege process, how do you feel?" ”

"The garrison of the city is vulnerable." Yang Jishan held his head high and responded loudly.

"Hmph, there are still officers and soldiers resisting in such a small city. I am letting you understand that the hearts of the people of the Great Sui have not been completely lost and should not be underestimated. Gao Si said lightly.

When Yang Jishan heard this, he hesitated, as if something sounded, and said reluctantly: "Dashuai, Wang Boren has taken the main general of the city guard, do you want to see it?" ”

"Very good, let Wang Boren explain the leaders of the official army." Gao Si groaned slightly, and then commanded.

Soon, accompanied by the sound of scolding, Wang Boren triumphantly escorted Sun Ying, who was in tattered clothes, and when he looked up and saw Gao Si, the rebellious anger on his face couldn't help but be retracted.

"Tell the marshal, the enemy will bring Sun Ying."

"Untie up. General Sun is relieved, if he doesn't kill you, he only has one thing to ask. ”

Sun Ying moved his wrist and couldn't help but say in frustration: "The general of the defeated army, if you want to kill, you will kill, and Sun will never surrender." ”

"If you can live, why bother to die? I just want to ask, why would the general rather die in battle than obey my righteous army? Gao Si didn't answer, but asked in turn first.

"Rebels? You are just a rebel who disturbs the world! claimed to be a righteous army, but took advantage of the chaos to cause trouble and corrupt the great cause of the Holy Son of Heaven's conquest of Liaodong. The name of the people is upside down, but it has caused hundreds of thousands of people to be displaced, opening the prelude to the troubled times. ”

Sun Ying can manage soldiers, is resolute and restrained, and is a loyal man.

"What you say may be reasonable, but under the great cause of the Holy Son of Heaven, who has mercy? To rule the world, it is not only martial arts, but also the people have to be fed. ”

"This ...... I don't know. "Sun Ying was born in a low-level general in Guanzhong, and the local conscription is heavy, how can he not know at all? It's just a vested interest that turns a blind eye to the suffering of the people.

Gao Si continued: "Since you claim to be a loyal minister. Then there is one thing that is asking you, that is, many women in this Hongnong Palace are robbed from ordinary people's homes? How many commoner women have been robbed overnight, separating their relatives and separating their husbands and wives? It was ordered by you personally, and the deputy general Ma Xian led the troops to do it. What do you have to say about this? ”

"It is a matter of course to draft a girl for the Son of Heaven, what's wrong with so-and-so?" Hearing this, Sun Ying's face turned red, and he argued with reason, feeling that everything he did was in line with common sense.

Gao Si sneered and said: "Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road. It is no wonder that the people are not happy, and they are all troubled by families such as you. , come on, pull him down and cut him down! ”

"Don't, you can't kill me like this......" Sun Ying suddenly struggled and was about to pounce on Gao Si.

Poof-Wang Boren's big knife waved, and a human head fell to the ground.

"Hang his head first, smash it around the city three times, and then bury it thickly!" Gao Si commanded without blinking.

"Why, why?" Yang Jishan and Wang Boren were puzzled.

"He hung his head three times around the city, because he plundered the people, and his crime deserved to be punished, so he killed him. The thick burial is because he tried his best to defend the city and was loyal to the country, and he should be praised. Gao Si explained casually.

"It can also be shocking!" Li Baiyao, who had just arrived, sighed on the side.

At this point, the matter is basically over.

However, if more than 10,000 troops were to be crossed to the other side in two days, even if the wooden boats and rafts that captured the ferry, it was really insufficient.

Most of the wooden boats were used by merchants, and one could hold thirty or fifty people, and any more would be in danger of capsizing, which involved the size of the boats and the skill of the sailors, and it was not compulsory to do so, and the river crossing had to be hurried.

Gao Si commanded and said, "No matter how urgent the boat is, start crossing the river tonight." ”

He, Li Baiyao, and Zheng Yan said that all the cattle and horses accompanying him were killed, and he sensed the raft and made a few more people at a time.

"Yes! (Obey)" The two supervisors of the baggage battalion left in a hurry.

Yang Jishan's ministry may be able to rest, or search for boats and other means of crossing the river.

Gao Si stood at the head of the city, his face solemn.

Xu Xiaohui and Yang Min came together, and Wei Jue also came over because she was taken care of by them.

"Husband, what are you worried about?" Yang Min asked first.

"Crossing the river today, I'm afraid it won't go well. I feel like there's another catastrophe! ”

"Then I'll cross the river at last. If the Lord's family is there, others will not be disturbed. Xu Xiaohui, who has always been weak, suddenly made a fierce decision.

Yang Min glanced at her in surprise, and then said, "I'm with my sister." But if one family member hasn't crossed the river, we won't be able to cross the river! ”

Wei Qi's beautiful eyes widened, and she also looked extremely surprised.

If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?

Gao Si clasped the hands of his two beloved wives and swore heavily: "We will definitely be able to get through this difficulty!" ”

The night is deep, the moon is bright, and Shaanxi and Tianjin are crossed.

Dozens of wooden boats and rafts, under the light of the fire, broke the waves.

This ancient ferry port of the Yellow River, also known as Maojin Ferry and Huixing Ferry, is the water artery and the place where soldiers must fight for the material transfer between the Central Plains and the east of the river!

The water of the Yellow River came up from the sky, the big waves swept away countless joys and sorrows, and the boats came and went and a similar scene was repeated.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the Qin and Jin dynasties were warned, and the Qin army was defeated. Three years later, in order to avenge the shame, Qin Mugong personally led a large army to capture the Jin State, and on the way to the army, he crossed the Yellow River from Maojin and made the famous "Qin Oath", not breaking the enemy's oath and not returning to the division.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty fled east from Chang'an and ran to Shaanzhou in embarrassment.

At that time, there were few boats and many people on the riverside, and the soldiers were in dispute, and Li Weixi's Liang army was beaten by Ge, and many people fell into the river and drowned, and the tragic situation was unbearable.

Gao Si pressed his sword, stood alone on the bow of the boat, his eyes shot at the mist, and the blood and qi surged to his chest. The reeds shot out a hundred boats, like a gale, like lightning, through the ferry!

After a night of fighting, the front army finally had 8,000 people. The rear army's 5,000 and 2,000 baggage battalions were still on the other side of the Shaanxi-Tianjin ferry.

At the end of the night, the rising sun had just dispelled the darkness.

In an instant, the war drums on both sides of the strait roared, the horns sounded, the sound of killing, the sound of arrows, and the sound of the waves of the Yellow River converged into a torrent.

As soon as Gao Si jumped ashore, he found that there were already officers and soldiers in front of him.

Of course, such a ferocious and fierce pursuit, only Yuwenshu's pair of puppets can arrange it.

At this time, Chang He found out the military intelligence and came to report, nodded and said: "It is indeed Yuwen Shu who is in person."

At the moment when life and death were decided here, the big beetle of the Great Zhongjun Army in Yuwenshu slowly appeared, and the three thousand Xiaoguo forbidden troops formed a large steel array, so as to eliminate the remnants of Yang Su here.

"All the soldiers obey the order, this will be our last battle." Gao Si drew his sword out of the sheath and said loudly: "The old thief Yuwen doesn't give us a life, look, the official army has also arranged chasing soldiers on the other side, slaughtering our wives and children, and fighting with the dog thief!" ”

Wang Boren laughed: "Grandpa is always going to kill enough today, brothers, come with me!" ”

"Why did the lord say this, you promoted me to be a mustard, don't say that you are desperate with the official army, even if it is for yourself, I have to fight my way, I want to be a man." Hu Sizheng also laughed and said.

Gao Si couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, the seven-star sword was raised high, and he ordered in a deep voice: "All the kings listen to the order...... Kill! ”

Boom - As Gao Si took the lead in the charge, the eight thousand tired divisions and the three thousand elites of Yuwen Shu were strangled in one place.

At the head of Shaanzhou City, Han Shi'e was ashamed and said: "I underestimated Qu Tutong, but I didn't expect him to divide his troops to make a detour to pursue." ”

If you have a hopeful spirit, you will find that there is a thick death qi on his top, hovering, just waiting for his original life to be dispersed, it will fall suddenly, and if it is scattered, people will die.

Not only that, but the entire city of Shaanzhou was clothed with a thick breath of death.

Xu Xiaohui suddenly said: "Put up the banner of the Duke of Chu!" ”

"What is this?" Yang Min couldn't help but wonder when she suddenly made such a decision.

“…… Rise from the ashes! Well said, I'm going to put up a big banner, let's fight in Guanzhong! Wei Chigong, the safety of the ladies will all be left to you. ”

Han Shi'e suddenly figured it out, no longer had the slightest hesitation, went down to gather men and horses, and came out of the main force, blocking the pursuing soldiers on the one hand, and marching towards Guanzhong on the other.

"The last general will take the order and swear to protect the safety of his wife!" Wei Chigong ignored the injuries he had just recovered from seventy or eighty percent, clenched his double whips, and prepared to go to the battlefield again.

Yang Min also reacted, and said equally firmly: "Sister, if we don't die in a catastrophe this time, you will be the master of the family in the future." ”

Xu Xiaohui and her looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.

Only the outsider, Wei Jue's heart was sour.
