Chapter 517: Choice
He picked up the binoculars and looked at it again, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and it didn't take long for the Tang army to approach the city gate.
The first person seemed to have been fished out of a sea of blood, with blood dripping from his body, and shouted at the city tower with a hideous face: "Who is in charge of the wall? Quickly open the city gate and let me in, our army was ambushed and suffered heavy casualties. The enemy is about to open the gates of the city as soon as possible. ”
"General Chen, I'll go down and ask someone to open the city gate!"
The guard's deputy saw that the pirates were still some distance away, so he thought about opening the city gate quickly and letting these comrades in, but Chen Shou stopped him with a wave of his big hand.
"These people are not from Hailing, and I will make a decision after I ask."
The guard said to his subordinates, and then he shouted outside the city: "The city gate must not be opened easily in times of crisis, please take out the document stamped with the official seal of the county lord, so that you can verify the enemy and the enemy below." ”
"Are you going to kill us? The pirates are coming, and besides, we have been ambushed, the general has been killed, and the paperwork is gone. Open the gates of the city quickly, if I wait to die here, you won't be able to eat this. ”
The man at the head glared angrily at the tower and cried out angrily, and the people behind him shouted angrily to open the gate.
"Please forgive this general outside the city, if you don't have a certificate, you can't be let into the city."
Chen Shou shouted in his voice, and then whispered to his deputy: "You know why I said they didn't come from Hailing, right?" ”
"The subordinates understood, if the people from Hailing came, they would definitely find a way to prove their identity before entering the city, and if they were caught up by pirates during the period, they would definitely die with the pirates, these people behaved too much like deserters."
The deputy said disdainfully, many of these soldiers in Hailing City have returned from Fusang, they are fierce and abnormal, and they will flee if they can't be beaten, but they will never be so embarrassed.
"I'm Qin You, the commander of the Zhichong Mansion, this is my token, when you retreat, I will shoot it up the city tower." As he spoke, the man at the head raised his crossbow arrow and shot it at the tower, and a cold light came, and the arrow was stuck in the pillar, and a token hung on it.
"Brother Qin, the soul has returned. The little brother will definitely avenge you. ”
Chen Shoujiang looked at the blood-stained token in his hand, and the whole person kept trembling, as if the token weighed more than a thousand catties and he couldn't stand up straight.
"After a while, let everyone come, as long as they get close, they will release arrows to Lao Tzu, shoot this group of beasts, and use a strong crossbow." Chen Shou twitched the muscles in his face and said in an extremely deep voice.
After he finished speaking, he said loudly: "If it is really your own person, you can quickly go down and open the city gate." Then he poked his head out of the city and said with a smile below: "Lord Qin, forgive me!" The lower officials are also worried about the safety of Wu Ling, and when they turn around, please say a few kind words in front of the county honor! ”
"Hmph, the official at the head of the national disaster disdains to bother with you, and opens the city gate quickly."
The fake Qin You said righteously, and walked towards the city gate with a swaggering horse, Chen Shoujiang poked his head and couldn't stop smiling, and the sound of twisting gears rumbling came from the city gate, which made the fake Qin You excitedly urge the horses.
He didn't know that he was twisting the lock of the city gate tighter, and behind Chen Shoujiang's smile was endless murderous intent, counting the distance step by step, and finally when the two thousand people arrived at the city, he retracted his head sharply and shouted:
"Shoot arrows to Lao Tzu, kill and kill ......"
With that, he snatched the repeater from the hands of the archers beside him, lifted it up, and coldly pulled the trigger at the fake Qin You under the city, and an arrow feather shot from the center of the fake Qin You's eyebrows to the back of the head.
The fake Tang troops under the city wall were panicked, and in the face of the arrows in the sky, they couldn't find a place to hide, and they didn't know what was wrong until they died.
Tens of thousands of arrows shot more than 2,000 people into hedgehogs, and only a few dozen people ran fast enough for them to escape.
The pirates in the distance turned around and ran away in fright, they had never seen such a terrible scene, the hard armor was like paper paste, and the people in the torn armor were all minced meat.
"Brother Qin, junior brother doesn't know who killed you, let these miscellaneous pieces wait for you first, and I will definitely send more people to your funeral soon." Chen Shoujiang looked at the red earth and said coldly.
Then he ordered people to clean up the battlefield and recover arrows, and his deputy respected him like a heavenly man, and just now those fake Tang soldiers said before they died that no one could understand the words, which confirmed that these people were fake. It's just that he doesn't understand how the guards found out that these people are fake before the people are ready.
"General, how did you find out that this gang is fake?"
In the end, he couldn't help but ask, and Chen Shoujiang said with a painful face: "I saw from the telescope that many people's armor was full of wounds, but none of them were bleeding, how could it not bleed when the battle was fierce?" The most important thing is that this token belongs to my eldest brother, he saved me several times, it was he who told me what a soldier is, and how could he not recognize me if he was standing under the city? ”
Chen Shoujiang cherished the token and put it close to him, raised his head and looked at the red sunset coldly, he will not be sad anymore, a professional soldier will not be swayed by emotions, so he can kill his son, so he can restrain his sadness.
A great victory was a great victory for everyone, and the soldiers were discussing how much credit they had taken for shooting a few people, and if the enemy army had been like this, they would not have to be afraid.
"General, we may not have reinforcements, my subordinates just checked, these people have a lot of gaps in their armor, they are just tied together with ropes, no wonder bows and arrows can beat them into meat sauce. And these gaps are all new, and it is likely that the reinforcements were ambushed by them, and they may have ......"
The deputy came over and said sadly, General Chen immediately covered his mouth and dragged him aside and whispered: "This matter must be kept secret, if it is rumored that the army is in turmoil, then this city will not need to be guarded." ”
"My subordinates understand! It's just that without reinforcements, how can we deal with the mountains full of food-eating soldiers? The deputy said with some fear, he was not afraid of death, but he couldn't see hope, which was more terrible than death!
"We can always wait for reinforcements, even if there are no reinforcements, we can't admit defeat, we have to let the big food country know that this is the Tang Dynasty, and if you dare to come, you will die."
Chen Shoujiang said firmly, and his deputy stood behind him, his face struggling several times, and then showing a look of death.
He just wanted to kill the guards and then abandon the city and flee, but he thought about it again and again, even if he lived secretly for decades, what was the point? It's better to fight vigorously, even if it is death, dare to laugh Jiuquan claims to be a master.
"Don't gossip with me here, but go and tell the craftsmen to make bows and arrows day and night. I'm going to arrange for a watch tonight, and I'm going to say that the pirates are going to attack tonight. ”
Chen Shoujiang suddenly said to the deputy, the deputy looked at him with some disbelief, it's okay to say otherwise, the other party fled in embarrassment when he just fought, and they dare to come tonight? Aren't you afraid of death?
"Don't believe me? If you don't believe us, you have hidden the old wine in the altar for forty years, and if the enemy attacks tonight, how about you give me the wine? ”
"It's rare that the general is still in the mood at this time, and his subordinates will accompany him to the end, if he doesn't come tonight, then your Hundred Refining Battle Sword will belong to me."
Chen Shoujiang smiled and pointed to his deputy, this kid is a fine ghost, a jar of wine against a treasure knife, this kid has made a lot of money!
