The smell of blood was pervasive, and although the city was not occupied by the Zhao army, it was also in a mess at this time, and it was dilapidated. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In all the houses, the valuable things that could be taken away have been cleared by the fleeing people, and most of the things that cannot be taken have been burned.

The streets are littered with debris left behind by broken items.

The soldiers and the people who had been tired for a long time leaned against the wall and fell asleep at this time, and some of the soldiers who recognized Wu Ming occasionally opened their eyes just to look. When he met them, Wu Ming could see that their faces were already faintly a little more happy.

But after all, it was because of the overwork that everyone was tired at this time and didn't want to move, and they didn't want to have any words.

Many of the people in the city, who were left old and weak, gathered together to comfort each other and take care of each other.

Wu Ming walked quietly, watching, without the slightest intention of disturbing, they were different from the soldiers, it was already very good to be able to do this.

As they walked forward, a group of people surrounded an old man, shouting and beating, and some people handed over the water. But as soon as the water was poured in, the old man's body was already convulsed violently, and then he completely lost consciousness.

A group of people began to surround the old man and cry, but in the end, the old man was completely out of breath, and his body gradually lost its temperature.

The scene in the whole city was unusually miserable.

Ascending the tower, the blood began to flow slowly down the stairs.

Wu Ming detoured from the south gate to the east gate to the north gate. Almost every step you take, you inevitably step over a corpse on display.

The corpses of some of the soldiers were supported by two spears and did not fall, and some of them were still holding their swords with one hand and pressing the other hand against the wound on their waist. The moans of several soldiers who had been hit by arrows in their bodies but were not dead, but were dying on the brink of death, could be faintly heard.

The original defenders of the city were no longer one in ten, and those soldiers who were still alive were surrounded by a pile of corpses, and in the corner of the corpses, they squatted weakly in the river of blood at their feet, leaning on the city wall and falling asleep.

The scene was already indescribably tragic.

Wu Ming knew that if there was another quarter of an hour, he was afraid that none of the soldiers guarding the city would be left.

When he stepped past a Zhao soldier who seemed to be dead, he suddenly hugged him and retreated, screaming and opening his mouth to bite.

Fortunately, Wu Ming reflected quickly enough. As he drew his leg, a general behind him had already plunged his sword into the soldier's back.

The tower on the north side is the most miserable.

At this moment, Zhang Meng, whose eyes were almost confused with blood, was struggling to climb looking for the soldiers who were still alive.

Among the piles of corpses near the city walls, he kept turning over the faces of each soldier, trying to wake them up, but the reality made him feel extremely disappointed.

Just as he turned his head, he suddenly realized that he didn't know when Wu Ming was standing not far away, looking at him in a daze.

"General—"

After staring at each other for a while, Zhang Meng got up and staggered towards Wu Ming. But he stumbled along the way, and almost fell again and again.

Wu Ming, who reacted at this time, hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.

"General-" Zhang Meng, the dignified bloody man actually choked faintly at this moment. Tears instantly blurred the blood stasis on his eyes.

At this time, Wu Ming saw clearly that Zhang Meng had completely become a bloody man, and the clothes and pants from Cong's messy hair to his legs were complete, and there was no place without blood.

"Everyone's done a great job! Don't say anything, you go down and rest first, there is a master here. Ignoring the bloodstains on his body, Wu Ming helped Zhang Meng up, turned to the soldiers behind him and said, "Quick, help General Zhang go down to rest." ”

Because of the hasty evacuation of Zhao Jun, the director's ladder at this time was still around the city.

Looking down from above, at this moment, the mutilated corpses under the southern castle tower are everywhere, even if it is still winter, standing on the top of the city, you can faintly smell that disgusting breath.

"Order the whole army to throw all the corpses in the city and on the city walls outside the city, and the corpses on the city walls can be thrown down directly."

Listening to Wu Ming's instructions, the general behind him hesitated slightly, but finally did so, "Yes." ”

After an hour, the devastated city was finally much cleaner.

It wasn't until dusk that Wu Ming did it in the city lord's mansion, listening to the return of the two generals.

"General, the materials for defending the city should be scarce, all the arrows have been used up, and the most basic boulders and rolling logs are also empty."

One of the generals just finished speaking, and another general also reported with a worried face: "The reserves in the city are tight with 500 stones, my army is in a hurry, there is no grain and grass in the later period, and the soldiers are only carrying two days' rations with them, if they are stationed here, they must let my king deliver all the grain and grass and other things within four days, otherwise......"

At this point, the words were stopped. But at this time, Wu Ming already knew what he was going to say. At the same time, Wu Ming's heart already knew how to do it.

Just when a few people were discussing, in a nearby room, Zhang Meng, who was originally asleep, suddenly woke up with a shout of "enemy attack", and his forehead was already covered with beads of sweat.

The soldiers who were waiting on the side hurriedly came in to check, and after making sure that Zhang Meng had just had a nightmare, they handed him water to greet him.

"Where is the general?" After Zhang Meng drank the water, he still asked weakly.

At this moment, there was already another soldier running in the main hall where Wu Ming and the others were on, "General Yu, General Zhang Meng is awake." ”

"Well, I know, you go down first." Wu Ming nodded hurriedly when he heard this. After sending the soldiers away, Wu Ming turned to the two generals with some eagerness and said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”

In front of the door where Zhang Meng was, Wu Ming and Zhang Meng, who came to visit, happened to bump into each other.

"The last general will see the general."

When he saw clearly that it was Wu Ming, Zhang Meng hurriedly bowed his hand, but was stopped by Wu Ming: "Okay, you are injured, don't be polite." Let's go in and say something. ”

Everything in the room was very basic. Wu Ming and Zhang Meng were already two generals sitting together in front of a few cases.

"I heard that the general was impeached by Lord Xiangguo a few days ago! The war is imminent, and these ministers know their status! Shame on you—"

After taking a seat, Zhang Meng was the first to speak.

……

At this moment, Zhao Jun's camp tent.

"Why, my general is still angry." Looking at Zhao Yuan, who was displeased, Zhao Yong said with some jokingness.

"Don't be angry, the last general is just thinking about when he will be able to kill all these rats with his own hands." Zhao Yuan didn't look at Zhao Yong either, but just said casually.

Although he said that he was not angry, Zhao Yong still knew that he still had a fire in his heart, and he was afraid that he would not extinguish the fire if he did not fight with the Wei army who came to help.

At this moment, a soldier hurriedly ran over, "See Your Highness." ”

"How's it going? But it's all clear. When he saw the faces of the people who came, Zhao Yong opened his mouth and asked softly.

"It's been checked. The king of Wei only sent an additional 10,000 reinforcements, which were temporarily transferred from the soldiers who defended the city in Daliang. ”

"Well, I know, you go down and rest." After thinking for a while, Zhao Yong nodded slightly.

Zhao Yuanyuan, who heard the voice on the side, couldn't help but look at Zhao Yong, and his expression was full of expectation.

Zhao Yong also glanced at Zhao Yuan, but he just smiled helplessly, turned to a general and said, "What are the casualties of our army in this battle?" ”

"There are 10,000 dead in this battle! More than 6,000 of them died at the hands of Wei reinforcements, and the others died in the siege. The number of injured was only in the hundreds, and they were minor injuries, and most of the seriously injured have already died. ”

"Then what is the Wei army's actions right now?"

"No, the spies came to report that the main general of the Wei army was replaced by Wu Ming, who had been evacuated by the King of Wei before, and now the 10,000-strong army is resting through Fengcheng. Probably because the city gate was blocked, and because we were afraid of a sneak attack by our army, the corpses outside the city walls were not cleaned up. ”

After the general finished his report, no one spoke again for a while.

As the sky turned dark, Zhao Yuan couldn't sit still, "Your Highness, depending on the situation, Wei is already only these troops at this time, and now that the soldiers of our army have recovered their strength, the last general will ask for orders, and lead the army to attack the city again, even if there are 10,000 Wei troops, but in such a short period of time, they must not have time to prepare the equipment for city defense, tonight's battle, the last general will definitely capture Wei General alive, and tomorrow he will take Wei General's head to King Wei to settle old accounts." ”

Zhao Yong didn't answer at the first time when he heard this, but quietly looked at the sky, frowned, and said slowly: "Tonight, we will do the same trick again, divide our troops to harass the Wei defenders, and wait until dawn tomorrow, when the Wei army is the most sleepy, and then attack the city." ”

"Your Highness, the last general is very sure, and this battle will definitely be able to win Jingfeng in one fell swoop." Zhao Yuan still insisted a little unwillingly.

"It's not that I don't believe in the general, it's just that our army has been fighting for days and has lost 20,000 people, although the Zhao State has recovered a little vitality, but after all, it can't compare to the Chu State, the Qin State, the Qi State, these big countries, the soldiers are consumed too much, once other countries invade my Zhao State, the situation is critical!"

"This,"

Zhao Yuangang wanted to insist, but was directly interrupted by Zhao Yong: "Go down and prepare to go." ”

"The last general, obey!" After unwillingly responding, Zhao Yuan walked towards the army angrily.

"Your Highness, why don't you just follow the general's wishes? Looking at the general's appearance, I am afraid that the Wei army will not be light, if he doesn't attack the city tonight, will he sleep? When Zhao Yuan walked away, a general came to Zhao Yong and said softly.

"If you can't sleep, you will bring people to harass the Wei army." Zhao Yong glanced at the general, and said undoubtedly: "Tomorrow morning, I will personally lead the army to attack the city." In short, we can't let the lives of his soldiers mess around. He is angry in his heart at the moment, if there is any change in the Wei army, the general will be angry. Have we not lost all our efforts? Although Wei Guo lived up to the year, it was better to be careful. Besides, it doesn't hurt me to be alone. ”
