Chapter XXXVIII: Rewards and Punishments

Wei Wuji immediately understood all of Yang Xiong's plans. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yang Xiong hit back at Puyang with lightning speed, and what he wanted was to catch Wei Wuji off guard.

Therefore, Yang Xiong sent elite soldiers to secretly attack Puyang City, and he led heavy troops behind. Listen to the dense footsteps, just a few hundred steps away.

Wei Wuji couldn't help but be shocked.

He knew too well what was in the city.

Even though Wei Wuji has 10,000 soldiers, Wei Wuji himself has no details about how many can really be used.

After mixing everyone, of course, you have me, and I have you, deepening Wei Wuji's control over all armies. But it also made Wei Wuji dare not fully trust any army, not even his guards.

If Puyang City was breached, Yang Xiong rushed in, and I don't know how many people wanted to use their heads to receive the reward. Who will fight to the death for themselves in an army composed of surrendered soldiers and grass on the wall? Wei Wuji didn't know.

This city gate is Wei Wuji's life and death checkpoint.

At the moment of life and death, Wei Wuji couldn't care about anything, he abandoned his bow and drew his sword, and rushed forward with all his strength, as if he didn't notice Liang Xiao peeping in the dark.

If he wanted to die, Wei Wuji would rather die in the battle formation than be beheaded in vain after the city was broken.

Wei Wuji rushed forward, and the Mo family swordsmen beside him suddenly plucked up their courage again.

Generals can lead by example, and others are even more desperate.

One by one, the rain of arrows came over, perhaps it was Wei Wuji who shouted loudly, the most conspicuous, and countless arrows shot at Wei Wuji.

Wei Wuji, who was in the crowd, had no time to hide, and he didn't hide. However, he was proficient in bows and arrows, and keenly felt the threat of each arrow to himself, and his body was slightly sideways, and his long sword swung to block a few arrows. There were also a few arrows shot at Wei Wuji. Wei Wuji can still endure it.

Only one arrow, fast and fast, shot at Wei Wuji's throat. Silently, when he came to Wei Wuji, Wei Wuji found out.

Wei Wuji's arm was subconsciously subconscious, and he suddenly felt pain, and with a sound of Meng Heng, the sharp arrow passed through his arm, and the tip of the arrow pointed directly at the throat, and when it touched Wei Wuji's throat, it stopped and was stuck in the flesh.

Wei Wuji broke out in a cold sweat, if Wei Wuji was a little slower just now. This little life is not his own.

In the second half of his life, Wei Wuji fought in the south and the north, and was in danger several times, but when he thought about it, he never had the danger of today, and every time he thought of Wei Wuji, he was still awe-inspiring in his heart, and he was afraid.

Canghai Jun and Huang Cheng, one is a natural wrestler, and his strength is infinite. A natural fierce general, another swordsmanship master, usually against the enemy, he doesn't use a second sword to kill. They are even more clear-eyed, Wei Wuji can hear the voice, why can't they hear it?

The two of them stepped forward bravely, and in a short time, they had already taken the city gate. Dozens of Mo swordsmen rushed out and drove the Qin army out of the city gate. Several people pushed the city gate, only to see the heavy gate squeaking sound. It's going to be closed.

The Qin army outside the city gate suddenly went crazy.

The punishment of the defeat of the Qin army was very severe, and if they were driven back like this, the five hundred lords who came to attack today would definitely be killed.

Seeing this, Huang Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "Close the door." ”

The gates were slammed shut together. Dozens of Mo family swordsmen were also locked out of the city gates.

Immediately, countless torches were lit outside the city gate, and the lights were bright, illuminating the outside of the city gate as if it were day.

Dozens of Mo family swordsmen fought back to back with each other. And in front of them was a neat military formation. At a glance, I can't see how many Qin troops there are on the opposite side.

A man rode out of the crowd, and dozens of people followed him. He stayed about ten feet outside the city gate. It was Yang Xiong. A group of men pressed an officer to the front of the horse.

Yang Xiong asked, "Are you guilty?" ”

This officer is the 500 lord who led the army to attack Puyang. He threw himself on his knees and said, "Please, give me another chance." ”

Yang Xiong said: "It's a pity that military law doesn't allow it, my wife and children, I will take care of it, go on your own road." ”

The officer laughed as if he was crying and said, "Master Xie." Then he drew his sword and killed himself. The corpse fell to the ground with a thud.

Yang Xiong said: "Pass the order, ask the people outside the city if they will surrender." ”

Yang Bao flew out, came to the Mo family swordsmen, and asked, "The general has an order, ask if you will surrender or not." ”

Wei Wuji didn't care about the injuries on his body at this moment, he had already rushed to the city, and immediately ordered to mobilize bows and crossbows to come up, and asked him to find some ropes, preparing to use bows and crossbows as a cover to drag these to the city.

Huang Cheng said: "Thank you, don't do these useless things." ”

This is indeed useless work, not to mention that there are less than a thousand people gathered around Wei Wuji now. And in the darkness outside the city, it was impossible to see at a glance how many people there were in the Qin army. But at least in the thousands.

How could Wei Wuji drag these dozens of people to the city in front of the thousands of Qin troops, in full view of everyone. It's simply impossible.

But there are some things that I don't know are impossible, and Wei Wuji still needs to do it, otherwise how to face the Mo family forces around him.

A Mo family swordsman shouted: "Prosper the world, remove the evils of the world, go to the soup and fight the fire, and die without spinning." ”

With a shout, everyone echoed, drew their swords and killed themselves, dozens of people fell to the ground one after another, and no one stood again.

Wei Wuji was secretly glad in his heart, although he was saddened by the death of these dozens of Mo family swordsmen, but deep down he breathed a sigh of relief, because these Mo family swordsmen were all Wei Wuji's personal guards, and they knew more about the reality in the city than ordinary people.

If someone surrenders and tells Yang Xiong the truth in the city, it will be difficult.

Even Wei Wuji was a little glad that it was the Mo family swordsman who was trapped outside the city, otherwise any army around Wei Wuji would not have committed suicide so resolutely.

At the beginning, Meng Sheng, the giant of the Mo family, guarded the city for the king of Yangcheng, but Meng Sheng could not defend it, and would rather die. The concept in the heart of the Mo family can be said to be dead.

These dozens of Mo swordsmen died not so much for Wei Wuji, but for their own ideas, in the hearts of these Mo people, the Qin State is the great harm of the world, and they swear not to surrender to Qin.

Yang Bao never expected that such a thing would appear. After all, he was a teenager, and he was at a loss for a while, but after listening to an order behind him, Qin Jun slowly retreated.

Yang Xiong saw that he couldn't go down to the city in one fell swoop, so he knew that Wei Wuji must be prepared, and then using the method of sneak attack would no longer work, so he simply said let's go, just go, so as not to drag the mud and water.

Retreat for miles, set up camp, and wait for reinforcements from behind.

At this moment, there is no need for Yang Xiong to say, Yang Bao also knows that this battle is defeated, and it will take a lot of effort to attack the city.

From the sneak attack of the Qin army to Yang Xiong's retreat, it was only half an hour, not even half an hour.

After this chaotic battle, the entire Puyang City was awakened.

Wei Wuji hurriedly returned to the Taishou Mansion to raise the account, but in a moment, everyone arrived.

Wei Wuji grabbed the shaft of the arrow on his arm, pulled it out hard, and he snorted, and was pulled off by the shaft of the arrow that had been cut off. Doctor Qin hurriedly bandaged Wei Wuji, Wei Wuji held the shaft of the arrow, but saw that the word "Liang Xiao" was engraved on it.

Everyone stood left and right, Wei Xiong, Shen Zhi, Huang Cheng, and the eight captains behind them. Uncle Ying, Doctor Qin, and Zhang Liang. Canghaijun stood behind Wei Wuji.

Wei Wuji said: "Gongsun Meng." ”

Gongsun Meng stood up and said, "The subordinates are here." ”

Wei Wuji said: "Are you guilty? ”

Gongsun sweated violently and said, "The subordinates are guilty." ”

Wei Wuji said: "In that case, pull down left and right and behead the public." ”

Everyone couldn't help but be shocked, but they saw one person stand up and said: "Your Excellency, although Captain Gongsun has made a big mistake, but the sin is not only death, please also ask the gentleman to be merciful." ”

The one who spoke was none other than Wei Man.

Wei Wuji was silent.

Wei Man sweated profusely and didn't dare to say much, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, but he heard someone cough and said: "At the beginning, Duke Wen of Jin was worried about Ziyu when he won Chu, and Chu killed Ziyu Fangxi, and now although Captain Gongsun is wrong in dealing with it, he is also a meritorious minister, and killing him will not make Qin Jun happy." ”

Wei Wuji said: "Since Master Zhang has spoken, Gongsun Meng will put his head on his neck for the time being, if there is another mistake, the two crimes will be punished together, and no one will be able to save you at that time." ”

Gongsun Meng was immediately overjoyed and said, "Thank you for your grace not to kill." ”

Wei Wuji said: "Stand aside for the time being, how to deal with today's affairs, and please speak freely." ”

Shen Zhi said: "Your Excellency, in fact, Yang Xiongjun is not worried for the time being? ”

Wei Wuji said, "Please speak." ”
