Chapter 90: The Cause of Chen

Gongsun saw that the soldiers were reckless and rushed forward, fearing that the losses would be too much, so he hurriedly ordered the other soldiers to shoot at the Chen army at the head of the city with bows, suppress the Chen army, and provide support for his own soldiers to hit the city gate and climb the city wall.

Sure enough, under the two attacks, Chen Jun was defeated at the time of the attack, and many soldiers began to climb to the head of the city to fight with Chen Jun, and they were naturally wiped out by Chen Jun at first, but they couldn't stand more and more Chu soldiers and women on the city, and slowly showed a state of inadequacy. And on the side of the city gate, with the help of the logs, the city gate also began to shake, under the repeated impact of Xiang Yan personally leading the soldiers, he finally couldn't bear the sound and fell, many Chen troops in the city gate could not retreat, and were pressed under the door.

Not to mention that Yu Xin was very excited, the two thousand Chu troops were jubilant, and the palace gate was taken, and no one could stop their footsteps in front of them. There are many treasures of gold and silver in the palace, which are about to become their treasures.

Yu Xin was not thinking about these, the shouts of the Chen State army were faintly heard from many directions behind him, and there were still a lot of people listening to the voice, and now he had to seize the Chen State Lord from the palace before they arrived, and even if he couldn't, he had to withdraw from the palace and jump out of their encirclement before the Chen State army rushed to encircle.

"All the soldiers listened to the order, everyone rushed in and must capture the lord of Chen Guo alive! You shall not take gold or silver in vain, and you shall not kill indiscriminately except those who resist! ”

Those soldiers and ladies saw that the palace had been opened to them, as if the treasures and beautiful little insiders in the palace were already waving to them, and their expressions darkened when they heard the words, and many of the soldiers and ladies showed a rebellious look, clearly preparing to resist the order. Plundering the enemy's property is a tradition of armies and an important means of boosting morale. The soldiers are naturally very puzzled by Yu Xin's orders, so that they are not convinced, if it weren't for Yu Xin's wise command image all the way has been deeply rooted in the hearts of these soldiers, I'm afraid these soldiers will rebel.

Seeing this, Xiang Yan hurriedly shouted: "Now that the 30,000 Chen troops outside are about to surround you, you are still thinking about the treasure little insider!" I don't know if there is a life flower. Whoever doesn't listen to Mr. Yu Xin will be such a log. ”

Speaking of this, Xiang Yan raised the long knife in his hand and slashed at the log beside him, the log was immediately divided into two halves, and all the soldiers were suddenly frightened.

Seeing this, Xiang Yan nodded with satisfaction and added: "But don't worry, no matter whether you can catch the lord of the Chen State or not, after returning to the camp, everyone will have a reward!" Reward! ”

Those soldiers and ladies immediately cheered, and with Xiang Yan's words, everyone's morale that had just disappeared suddenly rose again. In fact, they also knew that the war was not over yet, and even if they looted a lot of treasures at this time, they would become a burden to themselves in the next battle out of the city, and they would probably have no life to spend these treasures.

Xiang Yan saw that the soldier's mother had returned to her heart, and her morale had also risen, and she was also relieved, and hurriedly looked at Yu Xin.

Yu Xin nodded to Xiang Yan gratefully, there is no way that she is a soldier's mother, her foundation is too thin, and it is normal for no one to listen to her, Yu Xin has no complaints about this, and stood up again and said: "Our two thousand people can attack their palace in the midst of the enemy army, and all the soldiers have made great contributions." I would like to add here that if we come with 2,000 people, we will definitely not be able to leave with 2,000 of them, but I assure you that even if they are killed in battle, they will be rewarded when they return to the camp, and their families will be rewarded! Even if the marshal disagrees, I will definitely do it,"

All the soldiers were stunned when they heard this, no one had ever experienced the death of the soldiers and mothers can also be rewarded, looking at Yu Xin's firm look, there were many moved tears in the eyes of the soldiers present, first a soldier mother knelt down on one knee and marched the most solemn salute in the army, and then there was a second, a third, and then there was no longer a standing Chu army soldier at the gate of the palace.

"Thank you, sir!" All the Chu soldiers and mothers first rose and fell, and finally shouted in unison.

Yu Xin didn't expect that he was just because he saw a lot of soldiers die in battle, and he felt sorry in his heart, so he mentioned a reward and would not forget those people, and he didn't want to fight, but because of this, he touched the soldiers and girls present and won the hearts of those soldiers.

"Quickly order to enter the palace and search for the lord of the Chen Kingdom." Gongsun heard Chen Jun getting closer and closer behind him, and hurriedly reminded Yu Xindao in a whisper.

Yu Xin came back to his senses, and he didn't care about the soldiers and girls anymore, and then ordered: "Now that the Chen army is about to surround it, all the soldiers will listen to the order and quickly enter the palace, and each battalion will search separately, and the primary goal must be to find the lord of Chen Guo, and after a quarter of an hour, everyone will gather here." ”

Yu Xin ordered, Xiang Yan naturally stepped forward, where Yu Xin was familiar with the guard barracks, and she naturally made such arrangements. After a while, the two thousand Chu soldiers were divided into four teams, and each team arranged the search direction and carried out the order. Only one team was left on standby.

Xiang Yan arranged everything properly, turned his head and solemnly saluted Yu Xin.

"General Xiang, what are you doing?" Yu Xin hurriedly drove his horse to the side and flashed.

"Mr. is really extraordinary, the last general will do this salute, not for Mr. talent, but for Mr. love for soldiers!" Xiang Yan is colorful.

"That's as it should be." Yu Xin's face turned red, in fact, he also learned about the tradition of rewarding the fallen martyrs in the historical materials of the republican world, and saw that Xiang Yan didn't say it just now, so he added a sentence, where did he think that the army at this time did not have the rules of rewarding the dead. Originally, I wanted to lower the image of Mi Zilan, but now I think about it, if Mi Zilan really doesn't give rewards to those fallen soldiers, where can I find so many gold and silver treasures. As soon as he thought of this, Yu Xin regretted it to death.

"Now are we going to lead a team of people to search for Lord Chen?" Xiang Yan asked.

Yu Xin turned his head to look and saw that a lot of grain and grass had been piled up around the walls of the palace, and he knew in his heart that this palace had also become a place where Chen Jun had piled up military supplies after clearing the wilderness. Suddenly I thought that I should actually go to find the location of the military camp where Chen Guo had piled up grain and grass, and burned it with a fire, so that not only would my people be safer, but also Chen Jun would have no grain and grass to bear, and the city would be broken without attacking.

But at this time, it was useless to regret it, Yu Xin shook his head, thought for a while, and said, "Who knew the size of this palace on the wall of the palace just now. ”

"No need to ask, the last general has already learned about it through spies on the way here." Xiang Yan hurriedly replied, and then explained to Yu Xin in detail.

"King Chen's palace is located in the northwest of Wanqiu City, Zhou Qili, there are three gates, respectively in the west, south, east three sides. Right now we're at the West Gate. ”

"In this case, let's not rush to search for the lord of Chen Guo, you first let the two centurions lead their men to the east gate and the south gate to see if there are also grain and grass baggage, if there is, then stuff all these grain and grass baggage into the city gate hole and set it on fire, delay the time of Chen Jun, and then let them lead the troops back. Simon also arranged for people to be stuffed and lit here, and to stay here. ”

"Okay!" Xiang Yan didn't say a word, and immediately arranged for someone to go.

"So how do we get out? And can't they also use a ladder to climb over the wall? Gongsun looked at Xiang Yan, who was arranging manpower, and whispered to Yu Xin.

"Don't worry, let's go out naturally, as for blocking the city gate, I just want to buy us as much time as possible." Yu Xin said with confidence.

Seeing that Yu Xin was so confident, Gongsun didn't ask any more questions and stayed quietly aside.

"Sir, I've arranged everything, shouldn't we also go search for Lord Chen." Xiang Yan said excitedly. She has heard that this lord of Chen is beautiful and incredible, and he is also the only one in the Central Plains who holds great power as a small insider, and even many civil and military generals in Chen are also in love with his lord, and many Central Plains scholars, craftsmen, and even military generals have admired his name to serve.

It was this time that the Chu State attacked Chen, although the excuse used was that the Chen State did not follow the way of heaven and was mainly a small insider, in fact, everyone knew in their hearts that it was the lord of his own country who wanted to get the lord of the Chen State to cut Chen.

From this, it can be imagined how stunning the lord of Chen Guoguo is.
