Chapter 151: Blood Battle Dragon Branch
Longzhi City is already a city with high walls and thick walls, although there is no moat, but its special geographical location makes it impregnable. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoFrom a distance, it looks like a castle on a cliff.
Zhu Mingyang was originally a teacher and had never had the experience of fighting, but seeing the smoke of war on TV made him understand that war is very cruel, and he must be responsible for the lives of these thousands of soldiers, just like in the past, when a teacher was responsible for students, students must not have any accidents, and soldiers must not have too many sacrifices.
Under Longzhi City, Zhu Mingyang looked into the distance from afar. In fact, as the commander, he also wanted to rush in front of the soldiers, but was stopped by Li Chunfeng, who told him that the commander on the battlefield must not make any mistakes, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
The shouts of killing in the distance were particularly loud, and the ladder had just reached the city wall and was pushed down by the soldiers defending the city, and the soldiers on the ladder fell from a height and let out a heart-rending howl. The huge stones on the city wall smashed down like hail under the city, and a thick layer of corpses had accumulated under the city. Blood flowed like a stream from Longzhi City to the bottom of the mountain, staining every trail red.
"Report to your lord! The enemy defended the city too fiercely, and our side suffered heavy losses. A soldier came running from the front and said eagerly.
"Collect the troops!" Zhu Mingyang gritted his teeth and gave orders.
After a while, the soldiers carried their wounded companions down from the rain of arrows, and in the process of retreating, several more soldiers fell, but fortunately the soldiers in the city did not chase them out, otherwise the three thousand soldiers would have been able to return several times.
In the tent, the painful groans of the soldiers were heard, and the faces of all the soldiers were filled with frustration.
"What a broken Zhu-sama! I just know that let's rush, we have died so many brothers, if only our General Ma were here! Suddenly, a soldier scolded.
"That is, if it weren't for the fact that he was the protector sent by the imperial court, we would have ...... in his name," one soldier felt pain in his leg before he could finish speaking.
Everyone stared at the soldier's leg, but when they saw Cuicui, who was bandaging the wound, they suddenly made a strong effort to tie the soldier's leg tightly with bandages.
"What are you doing, can you light it up!" Suddenly, the soldier roared at Cuicui.
"Humph!" Cuicui ignored the soldier and pursed her lips with a light snort.
"You little girl, look for death!" Suddenly, the soldier slapped Cuicui and fanned him.
It's just that the soldier's palm stopped in mid-air when it was about to touch Cuicui, but seeing that there was a slender hand on the soldier's wrist, the soldier cried out in pain, and saw Xu Yue'er standing next to the soldier with anger, and it wasn't until now that the soldier found that Zhu Mingyang and Xu Yue'er didn't know when they came in.
"Lord Zhu, we know that you are a capable person, but the war is a thing with your head pinned to your waist, we have lost a lot of brothers according to your requirements, I hope we are not looking for the wrong person." Suddenly, the adjutant general walked over and said proudly.
"I'll find a way to rescue General Ma, but I hope you can listen to me and stop making your own decisions." Zhu Mingyang flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
Cuicui and Yue'er also let go of their hands and chased after them.
Before the bonfire, Zhu Mingyang frowned, according to the statistics just now, the siege of 3,000 soldiers killed and wounded more than 500 people, 500 people is the number of students in ten classes, Zhu Mingyang's heart is very heavy, although this initiative is completely the soldiers' own initiative, but Zhu Mingyang confirmed that he has an unshirkable responsibility as the commander, maybe the soldiers are right, they are too incompetent.
"Xianggong, it's not your fault, it's all my fault that I shouldn't let you promise them!" Suddenly, Cuicui approached Zhu Mingyang and came down to comfort him.
"No one can blame them, but the soldiers are to blame. said yes and didn't help, but begged Xianggong for help, and now it's okay to put all the responsibility on Xianggong, and want me to say that we left this ghost place overnight with tribute, regardless of those soldiers. Xu Yue'er pursed her lips and said.
"No, since you promised others, you should fulfill your promise!" Cuicui said slowly.
"But didn't you see that the soldier was going to beat you just now?" Xu Yue'er pointed to the tent with her finger.
"But ......" Cuicui finally didn't find a suitable reason to refute Xu Yue'er, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
The fire burned dry wood and thunderclaped, Zhu Mingyang always remained silent, his eyes fixed on the fire in front of him, but his brows frowned tighter, and his rough eyebrows seemed to be about to stand up.
Cuicui and Xu Yue'er didn't know what to say, they just snuggled up to Zhu Mingyang's side left and right, maybe this was the best comfort.
"Childe, now is not the time to be depressed, although the siege failed, but we should find an opportunity to attack the city again, you as the main general must not be low, otherwise it will affect the morale of the soldiers." After a long time, Li Chunfeng, who was on the other side of the bonfire, spit out a few words.
"Yes! Now is not the time to be discouraged. Zhu Mingyang finally sighed and moved his gaze to Longzhi City in the distance, he understood that finding a way to attack Longzhi City was more important than silence.
"This Dragon Branch City can only be defended by relying on the terrain, as long as we can start from this aspect, we can break the Dragon Branch." Li Chunfeng thought for a moment and said.
"It's not easy to break through this impregnable city, and the soldiers of today's battle didn't even climb the city." Zhu Mingyang remembered the siege during the day.
"Yes! It is said that Ma Yue also spent a lot of troops to besiege Longzhi City to death, and cut off the grain and grass in the city before taking the city, but now we have less grain and grass than in the city, and it is obviously not feasible to cut off the grain and grass. Li Chunfeng shook his head after speaking.
"Ahh Zhu Mingyang sneezed, it was raining during the day, and the wet clothes were sticking to his body, and Zhu Mingyang felt a chill at this moment.
"Brother Zhu, let me help you bake your coat!" Cuicui said intimately.
Before Zhu Mingyang could agree, Cuicui's plain hand had already begun to take off Zhu Mingyang's coat, Zhu Mingyang half-pushed and half-pushed the coat off and handed it to Cuicui, with Cuicui by his side, Zhu Mingyang's heart was warm.
For a long time, Zhu Mingyang and Li Chunfeng still haven't thought of a perfect way, Li Chunfeng used to be a civil official after all, and he could only do his best to attack the city.
"Oops!" Suddenly, Cui Cuijiao snorted.
But seeing that the clothes in Cuicui's hand floated into the air with the power of the bonfire, and floated into the distance with the autumn wind in the air, fortunately, Cuicui pulled the clothes off with a good effort.
"Huh!" Suddenly, Zhu Mingyang stared at his clothes and fell into deep thought.
"Husband, what's wrong with you?" Xu Yue'er handed the clothes in her hand to Cuicui and asked with concern.
"Chunfeng, is there a south wind these days?" Zhu Mingyang did not answer Xu Yue'er's question, but turned his head towards Li Chunfeng.
"In autumn, the north wind has always blown, but ...... There will be a brief southerly wind in two days! Li Chunfeng stood up and stared at the night sky and said.
"Okay, great!" Zhu Mingyang suddenly shouted excitedly, and everyone looked at Zhu Mingyang with puzzled expressions......
