Chapter 37: The Siege (10)
Early the next morning, under the command of Uncle Li Huang, the generals of each battalion were forced to go into battle again and storm Liangdang City.
It's just that this time, although the slogan shouted a strong attack, it was actually just a feint. For this reason, the generals of each battalion were also quite satisfied in their hearts.
In today's siege, not even the cloud ladder soldiers were dispatched, but only used large trebuchets to bombard the walls of Liangdang City in front of the position.
After consuming the enemy's arrows and stone bullets for nearly an hour, Uncle Li ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops, but instead of retreating to the camp, he waited in front of the battle.
The scorching sun overhead had just risen directly above, that is, it was just time for lunch, and the ** who had been waiting under the city for a long time began to beat the drum and attack the city again under the order of Uncle Li Huang.
This siege lasted nearly an hour before Uncle Li Huang turned his horse's head and ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops and return to the camp to rest.
Walking back along the way, I saw that although the generals of each battalion had been exposed to the scorching sun for half a day, their faces were still filled with satisfied smiles. Although the city was attacked twice today, it was a real feint after all, and there were no real losses. In this way, they will be at ease, after all, the military power in their hands is still there, which means that they still have the right to speak in the **.
At this time, in Liangdang City, above the hall of the government office, Huang Kuo, who was standing there, was smashing things in a rage, and scolded from time to time: "Li Zi Xiaoer! Don't let this king catch you in the future, or you will eat your flesh and stew your bones!" ”
Obviously, Huang Kui was angry about today's two sieges, although the enemy did not launch a strong attack, but such an attack was the most deadly! If you don't defend it, you're likely to storm the walls. But for defense, the arrows and stone bullets in logistics are consumed too quickly, and the arrows are relatively easy to say, but the stone bullets are different, after all, they are in the city, where to make stone bullets? That's a baby with one less!
In fact, these are not the most important things, because these are not enough to make Huang Kui so angry.
As for the most important reason, it was morning time to storm the city. At that time, Huang Kuo was still ecstatic with two women in the room, and these two women, Huang Kuo still liked them, but the number of people who had no choice but to send them to Zhongwu Hou was not even, Huang Kuo still knew the overall situation and endured the pain, and made up his mind to send the two away.
But after all, this is what he has worked hard to collect in the past few years, so Huang Kuo made another major decision before sending the two away, he decided to treat himself well in the end, so he sent someone to bring the second daughter to his room in the middle of the night.
But who knew that he was in that moment of ecstasy, and the door was knocked on in a hurry, which was the reason why Huang Kui was really angry. And the subordinate who knocked on the door and interrupted Huang Kui's good deeds was beheaded by Huang Kuo's order in the early morning, becoming the first person to die in a non-war before the siege of the city that day.
"Bang!" With a bang, Huang Yu raised his foot again and kicked over a table, then pointed at Cheng Ling under the hall and shouted angrily: "Cheng Ling, no matter what you think!" You must go to the Tang camp tonight! If you can't convince the Marquis of Zhongwu to retreat from the enemy as soon as possible, you will be the fate of that person this morning! ”
The more Huang Kui talked, the more angry he became, in fact, interrupting Huang Kuo's good deeds would not make him angry like this, but there was another reason for it, and others didn't know.
Because after being interrupted by his subordinates in the morning, he wanted to entangle with the two beauties in the last day, but he was surprised to find that he couldn't.
Could it be because I was suddenly interrupted and frightened in the morning? After Huang Hua finished venting his anger, he turned his back and rubbed his chin with one hand to consider the important things related to his lifelong happiness!
After a long time, Huang Kui finally made up his mind, no matter what, he still has to give it a try, after all, this is a lifelong happiness event! It was useless to just think about it, so Huang Yu ignored the generals present, and after making up his mind, he hurriedly took his entourage and ran towards his so-called Qunfang Pavilion.
。。。。。。
Tang Ying, just finished dinner in the evening, because he was too tired in the past few days, Lin Feng returned to his camp tent early, and was thinking about whether to drink or sleep, when the soldiers on duty came in outside the door.
"Master Hou, there is a man about forty years old outside the camp, who says that he is your fellow countryman and wants to see you, do you see?" The soldier said respectfully to Lin Feng after coming in.
Fellow? Where did you come from? Lin Feng couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could there be someone like himself, who drank too much and slept and got up and crossed over? After thinking for a while, Lin Feng nodded and said to the soldier, "You go and bring him in!" ”
Not long after, the soldier took a strange man into the camp tent, when Lin Feng saw him, his heart was full of doubts, he took two steps forward and carefully looked at the man, Lin Feng frowned and asked him, "Excuse me, do we know each other?" ”
"Of course!" The man immediately replied to Lin Feng's words, and then continued to say to Lin Feng: "Master Hou, you can't be promoted and forget about me, right?" ”
Saying that, the man was still there and squeezed his eyebrows at Lin Feng, making Lin Feng confused. Seeing that Lin Feng didn't understand, the man hurriedly added: "The millet you asked someone to bring to me last time was quite yellow, right?" ”
This time Lin Feng heard some clues, when he spoke, he deliberately raised the two words Qi and Huang very high and deliberately, Lin Feng immediately understood, and then nodded and said: "It's quite yellow and yellow, but this time, what advice do you have?" ”
The man paused deliberately, and motioned to the soldier beside him with the corner of his eye, and Lin Feng waved his hand at the soldier knowingly: "Okay, you go down first!" Nothing's wrong! ”
After the soldiers withdrew from the camp, the man first saluted Lin Feng politely, and then said to Lin Feng: "Master Hou, let me introduce myself first, my surname is Cheng, and my single name is Ling." ”
"Oh, it turned out to be General Cheng Lingcheng. Say whatever you want! When he saluted just now, Lin Feng had already noticed the calluses on his hands and the protruding joints of his fists, and although he deliberately pretended to be a literati, judging from his walking steps, even if he was not a general, he could conclude that he must have been a soldier!
"Master Hou's vision is so tricky! Hehe.. Cheng Ling, who was recognized by Lin Feng at a glance, was no longer pretending, shook his head and sighed to Lin Feng: "Hey, Master Hou, is this how you treat guests from afar?" ”
"Are you my guest? Are you mistaken? Lin Feng squinted at him mercilessly and said.
"I have a big business, I originally wanted to talk to Hou Ye, but it seems that Hou Ye is a little uninterested." Cheng Ling made a very regretful gesture, obviously wanting Lin Feng to see it.
Lin Feng glanced at his contrived expression, and felt a feeling of nausea wanting to vomit, then twisted his head to the side, lit a cigarette and smoked it alone.
"Master Hou, what kind of attitude do you have?" After Cheng Ling stood in place for a few minutes, he finally couldn't hold it back anymore and asked in a questioning tone.
"What's my attitude? What do you mean by my attitude? Lin Feng didn't even look at him, and replied in an arrogant tone.
