Chapter 968: Border Army!
"How could it be so sudden."
Shen Leng paced back and forth in the room anxiously: "Where are our scouts?" When I had just defeated Tongyangtai City, I ordered the scouts to expand the scope of exploration in all directions. โ
"I heard."
The black eyes came in quickly from outside and said breathlessly: "There are several reasons why the scouts did not detect the enemy's situation, first, this is outside the Guan, our scouts cannot be reconnoitring dozens of miles outside the customs at any time, even if we are Daning, once our scouts are found in the territory of other countries, even if they are killed, we have nothing to do, and it is impossible to use troops against other countries because of this." โ
After a pause, the black eye continued: "Second, the location of La Jia City is special, the northwest is the Houque State, the southwest of Tubo, after the last war, the Tubo State built a border city wall, our scouts have no way to explore intelligence in the territory of Tubo, and they can't even get close, the Tubo people are scared, and they can only build thousands of miles of walls to block us, and the cavalry of Tubo rushed out from the four exits, only a few dozen miles away from Tongyangtai City, and the distance from us to Tongyangtai City is about the same. โ
"Third, after the capture of Tongyangtai City, most of our scouts were sent to the northwest, because the southwest direction could not be checked, and the Tubo people directly blocked General Wang's circuit with the fastest speed, obviously this was planned by them."
Shen Leng nodded: "After beating Tubo last time, Tubo began to build a thousand-mile city wall, and at that time I laughed at the Tubo people, but now it seems that the Tubo people did not hesitate to spend huge financial and material resources to build a thousand-mile city wall, just waiting for such an opportunity for a counterattack, and the coalition forces of the Western Regions countries gathered a part of the Tubo city wall, and we couldn't see it at all." โ
He looked at the black eyes: "There will be more Western Regions Alliance troops coming in the future, and I can't leave at this time." โ
"If you don't leave, once the court knows about it, Your Majesty won't be able to protect you."
"I can't just die."
Shen Leng let out a long breath: "It's a big deal, my general, if I leave because of this general, I am not a person, and I am sorry for the military armor." โ
The black eyes frowned: "But General Tan has already told everyone that you are fake, how can you win the trust of people when you go out again?" โ
"I don't even want a general anymore, do I still want to be greedy for military achievements?"
Shen Leng turned around and saw the set of general's armor on the hanger in the room, this is the study of Kyushu, a set of full-body armor of Western Xinjiang heavy armor set up there, the face armor is as hideous as a fierce beast, Shen Leng went over and took off the face armor: "I wear this." โ
He looked at the black eyes: "Help me find a set of armor, just leather armor." โ
The black eyes were helpless, and after going out, he picked up a suit of armor after half an hour: "This is the armor of the Tingwei Mansion, and the Tingwei Mansion also has a battle armor, and I have to come with Qianban." โ
The battle armor of the Tingwei Mansion is naturally different from the battle armor of the Daning Border Army, just like the official uniform brocade of the Tingwei Mansion, the battle armor is also as black as ink, and there are two imprints on the left side of the breastplate, the black armor is red, which looks majestic, but the iron helmet does not have a face armor, Shen Leng hung the face armor on the iron helmet and put it on and tried it, the dark blue sรจ fangs face armor is matched with the black armor of the Tingwei Mansion Qianban, and there is a little more yฤซn sen in the majesty.
Shen Leng quickly changed into armor and pulled down his mask: "Remember, don't call my name again, I can't embarrass General Tan anymore." โ
Black-eyed asked, "Then how do you call you?" โ
Shen Leng stopped: "Call me...... Li Tuming. โ
Two moments later, Shen Leng was already on the city wall, when he stood beside the great general Tan Kyushu
, Everyone was stunned, everyone knows this black armor, it is the battle armor of the Tingwei Mansion, but the face armor looks like the face armor worn by the general Tan Kyushu when he was young, and the battle armor was built by Tan Kyushu when he was young, and he hasn't worn it for some years, but many people can still recognize it.
Tan Kyushu knew that it was Shen Leng when he saw the armor, and said in a low voice: "Why don't you leave?" โ
Shen Leng shook his head: "I can't go." โ
Tan Kyushu sighed: "You should go." โ
Shen Leng shook his head: "I have to be a person." โ
He raised his hand and pointed to Tongyangtai City in the distance: "Can you rescue?" โ
"20,000 Tubo elite cavalry directly blocked Wang Jiusheng's way back, he took all the infantry, after leaving the city, he retreated to Tongyangtai City while fighting, the cavalry of the Tubo people has now retreated to the periphery, and the infantry of Houque State will surround Tongyangtai City on all sides, you see......"
Tan Kyushu pointed in the direction of the east gate of Tongyangtai City: "A large number of Houque troops have gathered at the east gate, and the east gate has been broken by you, and the Houque people will definitely attack here." โ
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the lookout shout loudly: "Wolf smoke, three wolf smoke!" โ
On the wall of Tongyangtai City, three piles of wolf smoke were lit.
That was the signal of the Daning soldiers' decisive death, three piles of wolf smoke, which means that there is no need to rescue, and we are ready to die.
"Our battle flag is raised."
The lookout's voice trembled.
On the city wall of Tongyangtai City, Wang Jiusheng, the general of the border army, sorted out his armor and gave a standard military salute in the direction of Xijia City.
"Brothers."
He looked in the direction of La Jia City and said loudly: "I have ordered three piles of wolf smoke to be lit, telling the general that there is no need to come to save us, there are hundreds of thousands of troops outside, and we are standing on this Tongyangtai City that has just been defeated, each of you knows that the land that the soldiers are stepping on is the land of Daning, and the place where the battle flags of the soldiers are flying is the territory of Daning, and I will defend here, I am ready to sacrifice my life for the country, are you ready!" โ
"Die for Daning!"
"Die for Daning!"
The soldiers shouted on the walls.
"I have ordered all the city gates to be blocked with sandbags and stones, we can't get out, and we don't plan to go out, what are those Fanbang cubs shouting outside, you hear, they want to see Daning's border army surrender, they want to see Daning's soldiers surrender in their lives, but they are destined not to see."
Wang Jiusheng put the war knife on the city wall, stretched out his hand, and handed over a pot of wine to his own soldiers: "This wine is the wine of Fanbang, the thief is not good to drink, but fortunately, there is still wine, fortunately, there are still you, I am not alone when I die here!" โ
He drank all the wine in the jug and threw the jug under the city wall: "Daddy, my son is kowtowing to you here, and he can't serve the second elder in the future, let alone send the second elder to the end." โ
He knelt down and kowtowed three times, and stood up: "Everyone who has a father and mother in the family should kowtow, we are loyal to Daning, and naturally someone will do our filial piety for us." โ
One by one, the defenders on the walls knelt down and bowed to the east.
"Any worries?"
"It's gone!"
"No more!"
"Then fuck it."
Wang Jiusheng grabbed the hard bow and put the quiver at his feet: "Let the Houque people see how we defend the city." โ
There was a group of cavalry on the city wall, led by a captain, who rode under the city and rode at the same time
shouted.
"Listen to the people of the city, put down your weapons, take off your armor, and march out of the city, but spare you from dying, get out of the land of our Houque country, and get out of the border city of our Houque country!"
Sou!
The feather arrow in Wang Jiusheng's hand flew out, and an arrow shot through the neck of the shouting captain.
"Fuck your mother's fart, you guys? Not three days ago, but now this is the land of Daning! Don't say three days, the place where I stepped on it is also ours. โ
After the arrow knocked the shouter over, the cavalry behind dared to stay, accelerated and fled, but no one dared to stay to collect the body, the captain of the Hou Que Kingdom fell off his horse and died, and a lonely war horse stopped there, arching his master with his mouth from time to time.
"Fortunately, during the siege, only the east gate was destroyed."
Wang Jiusheng said: "Although the city gate has been blocked, but it is not reliable, go to a team of people to cut down more trees, use branches to plug the city gate hole for Lao Tzu tighter, divide 300 people to dismantle some house beams down, move the house beams and other logs up to use, and then send people to see how much food is in the city, no matter how much must be enough every day, anyway, we can't live that long, for Lao Tzu to cook, can't die hungry." โ
The men answered and divided into three teams, one to cut down trees in the city, one to tear down roofs, and one to prepare the brothers' dinner.
Wang Jiusheng looked at the city, the war horse had already left, and the foot of the lieutenant who died under his arrow was still hanging on the stirrups, and when the horse left, he pulled the master's body away, leaving a drag mark on the ground.
He took off his pipe, stuffed it with tobacco, and took a hard breath and spit it out.
"Fortunately, it's his mother's Lao Tzu who is here, whoever comes and who dies, if he is replaced by someone else under the general's account, Lao Tzu will feel awkward in his heart, and he will think why am I not in Tongyangtai City?"
He took another sip and exhaled the smoke, like a beast swallowing clouds and spitting mist, and in the smoke, those eyes were slightly red.
"Brothers, remember what I said last time I drank?"
He leaned against the walls and waited for the enemy to attack.
"The last time I drank, I said, the thief is so envious of the border army brothers in the northern Xinjiang, and he killed the black warriors, I told you at the time, it is difficult to compare the border army brothers in the northern frontier in this life, that is the black warriors, here in the Western Regions, whether it is the Tubo people or the Golden Bird people, which can compare with the black warriors, who would have thought that God loves us so much, if we win this time, then we will compare the brothers in the northern Xinjiang, they will do the black martial arts, we will do the countries of the Western Regions, brothers, if there is any luck to survive and go back, In the future, remember to brag with the border army brothers in northern Xinjiang, just say...... Wang Jiusheng said, you can't do it. โ
This sentence ignited the fire in the chests of the soldiers around him.
Wang Jiusheng stood up and looked out, the army of Houque State had formed a phalanx one by one, it seemed that they did not plan to let the Daning soldiers in the city spend the night quietly, the horns outside the city came and went, and the troops of Houque State were enough, and they did not need to attack a certain place alone.
"Brothers!"
Wang Jiusheng moved his arms: "All living spirits, early tomorrow morning, let's stand on the city wall and pour a soak of urine on them, let them see, the Daning soldiers are farther away than them." โ
He clenched his hard bow.
"Frontier Army!"
"Fight!"
"Frontier Army!"
"Fight!"
