Chapter 172: History of the Spring and Autumn War (21)
Listening to the herald's announcement, Xiao Wuji's eyes narrowed slightly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoYucheng is the second city that Sun Yu asked him to capture after Wuque City, but Shu is entrenched in the eighteen walled cities in the two mountains, so how much effort does it take to attack one by one? But if the troops are divided carelessly, Shu will be able to capture it against the danger, it is not yet known.
"You can take a few spies to take a look at the reality first, remember not to expose yourself, and draw the terrain and other information into a map, be sure to be fine."
"No!"
The herald retreated.
The last time he attacked Wuque City, Sun Yu only gave him a few hundred foot soldiers, but this time there were so many of them that there was no reason to fail. Especially with his trump card that can capture the thief and capture the king first, Xiao Wuji's mood is still very relaxed. About three hours later, the herald presented a sketch. The terrain textures on the map were all drawn with charcoal, and they were sloppy, but it was quite clear that although Xiao Wou-Ki was angry that they didn't draw them carefully according to his orders, he thought about the actual situation and the time they spent was not too long, so Xiao Wou-Ki suppressed his anger.
This is the first time that Xiao Wuji has led troops to fight in the real sense.
After getting the map, Xiao Wuji ordered the army to pull out, and the soldiers who had already begun to camp scolded and packed up the tents that had just been half set up. Xiao Wuji couldn't hear such a voice, and even if they had any opinions, they didn't dare to say it in front of Xiao Wuji. Morale is low, this is also something that can't be helped, Xiao Wuji doesn't care about his soldiers at all.
He didn't think he could miss it.
In his opinion, in this world, apart from Di Yunhuan and the mysterious person who can create illusions that he met that time, who else is his opponent? It's not easy to get the head of a general in a million-strong army, but killing a few barbarians in this kind of place, can you stump me Xiao Wuji?
It turns out that Xiao Wuji asked people to go to find out information and draw maps before, and the mountain road is not too difficult to walk, because this mountain is rich in Ganoderma lucidum, there are many mountain people living in this profession, and many roads on this mountain have been opened up as a result. Moreover, there was no Mo family who was bored with themselves before the rebellion, and the army easily arrived under the rain city.
Looking closely, Xiao Wuji changed his previous impression of the barbarians of Shu. The rain city is different from the black bird city, the black bird city is made of huge stones, the shape is simple and weird, this rain city is the style of the Central Plains, although it is not big but it is complete, and the urn city is built, and it is built by relying on the danger, and it is known at a glance that it is an important place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Xiao Wuji looked around, hoping to find some flaws to sneak into, but the walls of Rain City were much higher than those of the Black Bird City, and it was difficult to climb up even if he used the eagle claws, and the temperament of the defenders here also looked very different from the Black Bird City, with a lot more civilization and less banditry and wildness of the defenders of the Black Bird City.
However, this only gave Xiao Wuji a slight headache.
You can't go up there, you can go down there, it's just that it takes more time. But Xiao Wuji didn't come to attack the city, what he needed most now was time, he just hoped to be able to fight quickly, otherwise he would not be by Sun Yu's side for a moment, and he would be worried that he, the king, would be captured by others. What Xiao Wuji didn't know was that with the departure of the Situ sisters, the eighteen isolated cities occupied by the Mo family in the Shu Mountains had lost their connection, and now they were in a state of chaos that did not belong to each other, and probably no one could find trouble with Sun Yu, and the only thing that needed to be paid attention to was the Muyun boy who saw the head and the end of the dragon.
Xiao Wuji thought about it for a while, and then chose the strategy he wanted to carry out.
Storm.
But it's not really going to be a siege.
Rather, he was to send himself into the city between the storms, and as soon as he entered the city, all problems would be solved.
It's just that Xiao Wuji just gave the order to attack, but the herald couldn't help but remind: "My lord, my brothers have been on the road for the past few days, especially after just climbing the mountain, their physical strength is not exhausted, and their morale is not too high. ”
"You're saying you're better than I can lead the troops?"
"The subordinates don't dare."
Well, Xiao Wuji stroked his hair. I really don't seem to know how to lead troops to fight, which is the most headache. In desperation, Xiao Wuji had no choice but to decide to besiege the city for the time being, besiege but not attack, and rest for a day first.
At night, Xiao Wuji was alone in the tent.
The Qin sword pinned to his waist before and his nameless short sword were both placed on the bookcase in front of him.
I don't know how my sister is doing now?
Is she still happy with Di Yunhuan?
This kind of moment, no matter how much you miss it, it doesn't help, after all, he is a person who wants to do things. I only hope that Di Yunhuan will not live up to the trust he and his sister have placed in him, and he must protect his sister. If Xiao Wuji knew that his sister had been kidnapped by the mysterious person who knew how to use illusions, he would definitely leave the army to intercept and save his sister. In his heart, his sister will always be the most important one, and his future can only be ranked second.
Just as Xiao Wuji was speechless, a young man dressed as a soldier suddenly entered Xiao Wuji's tent. He is not a herald, Xiao Wuji claims to be in this army, except for Sun Yu, he can also recognize all those heralds, this person is obviously just an ordinary soldier.
"Did I let you in?"
Xiao Wuji's expression was unswerving, he hated that someone would disturb him at such a time.
The soldier said, "No." ”
The tone is still reasonable.
Xiao Wuji was directly angry.
"Get out."
The soldier laughed and said, "You didn't let me come, but someone asked me to come." ”
"Who?"
"Mu Yungong."
Xiao Wuji picked up the short sword in front of him.
The soldier said: "Don't be nervous first, Mu Yungong actually has no malicious intent. ”
Xiao Wuji frowned and said, "You came to kill the enemy's main general, why didn't you go to Sun Yu, but you came to me several times?" ”
"Who said our goal was to kill the enemy's commander? The last time I came, I made my own decisions and had bad intentions towards you, and this time I came to clarify: Mu Yungong not only has no ill will towards you, but also has great goodwill. It's just a matter of seeing if you can catch the kindness. ”
"But I, for the Mo family and the people of the Mo family, have no kindness, only malice."
"How about you listen to me talk about our terms first, and then make plans?"
"Say."
The soldier smiled again: "I know that you are not the kind of pedantic person, according to Mu Yungong's information, you have not been working for Emperor Yunhuan for too long, if it is like Li Ci and Xun Jiang, I will not bother to speak." ”
"It's another nonsense, do you know that your death is coming, so you use the last days of your life to say a few more words?"
"It's not me who is dying, it's someone else. We have only one request, and that is for you to kill Di Yunhuan. If you succeed, we can get you everything you want. ”
"You should know that that's impossible."
"It's impossible to kill Di Yunhuan?"
"No, it's for me to get everything I want, it can't be."
"What do you want?"
Xiao Wuji smiled: "I want my whole family to live happily, can you do it?" ”
This whole family, now, only includes the younger sister.
The soldier closed his eyes, opened his eyes, and said, "Yes." There is nothing in this world that Mu Yungong can't do. ”
"If that's the case, why didn't he go and kill Di Yunhuan himself?"
"Now, my coming here is the first step for Mu Yungong to kill Di Yunhuan."
"Why me?"
"Because in this world, the only person who can kill Di Yunhuan is you. Liu's hysteria is too deep, Bai's personal relationship with Diyunhuan is too strong, and the others are too weak. ”
"Why should I trust you?"
"You should know that the world is very different from what it appears to be. Who rules the world? Those monarchs? Not. The world is ruled by the Zongheng family, and among these people, you should have heard of one, Song Mingchen, who is the most famous of these people. There are many more that you have not heard, but they are really in control of the situation in the world. Ten years ago, Song Mingchen had a gamble with a person, and that person's name Mu Yungong didn't dare to say it. But in this gamble, Mu Yungong bet on that person to win, and Song Mingchen lost. In the end, it must be that person, not Song Mingchen, who won. You know, since the breakdown of the alliance of the hundred generations, the two countries of Qin and Jin have been attacking each other, winning and losing each other, until Emperor Yunhuan mastered the politics of Qin, and the Jin State was beaten all the way to the east, but they can still compete with Qin now, and they will be the final winner, just because, the Jin State is strong in the country, and the Qin State is only strong in Emperor Yunhuan. As long as you can kill Di Yunhuan, then you are the number one hero in the new world, and in the future, you can do it under one person, or even that person will be trampled underfoot. At that time, even if it is an elixir of life, you will be qualified to pursue it. ”
The soldier's words were a little clueless, and a little fragmented, but the more advanced game hidden above the general trend of the world was known to Xiao Wuji from his mouth. After he said these words, Xiao Wuji took a step forward, and with a quick return of his dagger, he took off his head.
"Someone, collect the body."
Outside the Big Tent.
When Mu Yun saw the corpses of his subordinates being dragged out, he counted the time, and then muttered confidently, "This is half the story." Mr. Zhou had no last resort and decided that this person would agree. It's just that the information and price we give now still don't seem to be enough. ”
If the soldier had been killed immediately, the matter would have been a complete failure.
If the soldier came out alive, the matter would have been a complete success.
But the current situation is only half the battle.
The corpse of the soldier was buried in a pit at the foot of the mountain by the real soldiers.
After they left, Mu Yun dug up the body again in the night, and removed half of the note from his belt, on which there was only one word "human". Mu Yun frowned, and groped for a moment before finding half a note from his chest, on which the word "home" was written.
"Family? Xiao Wuji should only have one sister now...... I get it, that's the key to breaking the game. ”
Heaven is enlightened.
Xiao Wuji then ordered a strong attack.
The herald only said a word of promise.
But the next scene made Xiao Wuji embarrassed.
Although the soldiers who had just gotten up quickly dissipated their sleepiness, they did not go towards Yucheng, but formed many teams in an orderly manner and went to cut down trees in the forest. Xiao Wuji couldn't help but ask, "What are they doing here?" ”
The herald couldn't help but smile: "My lord, did you give the order to attack?" ”
Xiao Wuji nodded and said, "Yes." ”
"The stone throwers and cloud ladders needed for the assault, can there be ready-made things in the army?"
"This ...... It doesn't seem to be. ”
"My lord, those siege equipment are too big, and besides, this is in the mountains, it is difficult to carry with the army, so they can only be made and used locally. Now the brothers went to gather the materials. ”
"That'...... When will it really be able to attack? ”
"My lord, no matter what the army next to you says, it will take a month, our Qin army is a famous tiger and wolf army in the world, and there is no laziness and slackness, so only half a month is enough."
Although the situation just now made Xiao Wuji a little embarrassed, the half a month that the herald said still broke through Xiao Wuji's bottom line too much.
So Xiao Wuji immediately said: "Within seven days, I want to see the first round of attacks." ”
"Your Excellency...... Half a month, it's been day and night......"
"I don't care how far you have accomplished, but within seven days, there must be a first round of attacks, and this is non-negotiable."
Xiao Wuji said that, he returned to the camp in discouragement, and sighed for a long time.
Himself, the general who catches ducks on the shelves...... Sun Yu still thinks too highly of himself.
……
"Hey, I'm tired again."
This is the ninety-ninth time that Xiao Furong is tired today.
Liu Rufeng couldn't help but mock: "I see that you are not tired, but you want to run away again, right?" ”
"How can you tarnish people's innocence out of thin air? Can the affairs of the scholar be called escape? It's called retreat! I want to retreat! ”
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry."
"Oh, I'm really tired this time! Anyway, you didn't agree to the previous ones, so what if you agree to it now? ”
Liu Rufeng shook his head.
Never mind.
Then rest.
After getting the promised reply, Xiao Furong was about to jump up with joy, he and his brother had never been so tired when they traveled around the world, so as soon as the joy passed, she ignored her image and fell asleep. Liu Rufeng looked at her face, and the previous throbbing returned. The immortal bait created by that person really had a fairy aura, although it missed the best time to take it when it was still a fetus...... Liu Rufeng somewhat understands why it is still the easiest to take when she is a fetus, and now that she has grown into an adult and has her own thoughts and personalities, Liu Rufeng actually has some compassion. In this compassion, there is something he doesn't want to admit at all.
Liu Rufeng just stood like that, silent.
Xiao Furong, who was lying on the ground, suddenly said, "Why don't you rest?" ”
"I don't need to."
"Isn't it boring to just stand there?"
"Not boring."
"You're so boring." Xiao Furong yawned, and then really fell asleep.
Only Liu Rufeng was left muttering: "Didn't I say that I'm not bored?" Isn't the word boring different from what I understand? ”
