Chapter 282: The Storm Rises Again (3)
Xiang Chao didn't reach out to pick it up, if it weren't for the fact that I had indirectly saved his life from Song Gong on the shore of Luoxing Lake before, I am afraid that he would have already let people drag me out of the camp at this moment, and the military law would have dealt with it.
"Can the general know that before the prime minister fell into a coma, why did he point to Zi Huang and say that he wanted to attack and defend, instead of the general?" I took a sip of hot water and looked at him with a smile.
Xiang Chao tried hard to suppress his anger, and replied firmly: "Chao heard in the Song Dynasty that Jin Qing Zhao Ying has always believed in the art of divination and divination. The sorcerer is the son of the Jin people, and there must be divine help in attacking the city and capturing the thief. ”
"The general is on a big mistake. The prime minister has governed the Jin Kingdom in the past few decades, not by divination. Prime Minister this attack is intended to attack the heart, not the city. That's why I chose Zi Di and gave up the general. ”
"Heart-attacking?" Xiang Chao was puzzled, and he frowned at me. I put down my glass and was about to explain, when the pedestrian opened the tent and walked in. He bowed to the nest, then turned to me and said, "The sorcerer is very accurate, and the spy of the Marquis of Wei has already come. ”
"What should be seen, has he seen it all?" I asked.
"See. Wei Hou will know tonight that Prime Minister Qing fell into a coma, and he will also know that General Xiang and the sorcerers are at odds, and dozens of people in the Jin army suddenly fell ill with typhoid fever. ”
"Great, there's Dr. Lao Candle." I saluted and thanked you.
Candle glanced at Xiang Nest and returned the salute.
Xiang Chao's face was still ugly when he heard the words of the candle, and he said to me with an iron face: "Tell Wei Hou about the coma of the prime minister, and pretend that someone in the army is suffering from typhoid fever, is this what the sorcerer said about attacking the heart?" The sorcerer showed weakness to the Marquis like this, should he think that the Marquis of Wei would be arrogant tomorrow and go out of the city to fight the Jin army, right? It is easy to defend the city, but it is difficult to fight, and the truth that three-year-old children know, how can Wei Hou not know. Moreover, the prime minister had attacked the guard three times before, and the marquis of Wei was already like a frightened bird at this time. Chao dared to assert that even if there were only ten people attacking the city tomorrow, the guards would not open the city gates and fight with those ten people. ”
"What the general said is extremely true, how could Zidian ever say that he would trick the Marquis of Wei into going out of the city to fight?"
What did the sorcerer mean by that? If you don't deceive the guards to go out of the city, you have to attack hard, so isn't the sorcerer's attack on the heart empty talk? ”
I pursed my lips and smiled, took out a green cloth bag from the table and handed it to Xiang Chao: "This is the battle uniform that Zi Di specially ordered someone to make for the general, the general might as well go back and try it now, but it still fits?" ”
"The nest doesn't need any new uniforms!"
"General, let's take a look first!" I smiled and stuffed the burden into Xiangchao's arms.
Xiang Chao frowned and opened his baggage, then looked up at me suspiciously.
I walked outside the tent and looked around, then returned to the tent and motioned for him to come over with my ear.
He leaned his ear to him suspiciously, and I carefully told him what I was thinking.
After speaking, Xiang Chao's expression changed greatly, he stepped forward and took two steps back, bowed very cautiously, and said respectfully: "The wizard's clever plan, the nest will definitely live up to the wizard's trust!" ”
On the second day, there was a strong wind. I led the army out of camp in the afternoon, and did not begin to beat the drums to attack the city until dayset.
Kuai Yu climbed the city tower, only glanced at it, and left.
When I was a child, I read a military paper that said that a soldier has morale, which rises at first, then declines, and then exhausts. Shi Mo also said that the heaven and the earth are angry, vigorous and sharp, day and day, and twilight.
In order to "entertain" Kuaichen in particular, I deliberately chose a time when the aura and morale were the weakest, and the drums were beating to attack the city.
The soldiers of the Jin army wilted and raised their bows to shoot arrows at the city tower, and hundreds of feathered arrows were blown to the ground by the strong wind before they could reach the city wall. I pretended to urge the archers to shoot one more round. This time, he finally shot down a few patriotic soldiers, and then he was satisfied with Mingjin and withdrew his troops.
That night, I squatted in front of Zhao Ying's couch to boil medicine, and pedestrians walked into the camp tent through the slush and slush.
Candle Guo is the same age as Zhao Ying this year, since Mi Cao died tragically, after Candle Chu left home, the old man's hair has turned white, and there is no smile on his originally serious face. At this moment, he opened the curtain and entered, and when he saw me, his face that had not smiled for ten thousand years finally had a little joy.
"The sorcerer is like a god, and General Xiang has already infiltrated Diqiu City." Candle walked up to me and whispered.
"Oh, that's good." I breathed a sigh of relief, got up and handed him a piece of leather in my hand, "Doctor Candle, the prime minister is bothering you here!" Xiao Wu was a little windy today, I'm afraid I can't ......" I didn't finish my words, I covered my mouth, it was two sneezes. After all, it was not a body for marching and fighting, and I stood in the wind for two hours in the afternoon, and when I came back, I was dizzy and short of breath, and I sneezed repeatedly. Halfway through the matter, people are about to fall, it's really useless.
Seeing that my face was ugly, Candle Guo said with concern: "Wizards, don't you really have a cold disease?" Tomorrow's siege of the city, it is better to let the other two lieutenants in the army go! If the sorcerer loses, the prime minister and the Taishi will not be able to spare the old age. ”
"No! Kuai Yu must die this time, if Xiao Wu can't see other people's heads fall to the ground, I am afraid it will be difficult to feel at ease. ”
"Then the wizard should hurry back to the tent and rest, once there is a change in the castle tower tonight, the old man will definitely come to tell the wizard."
"Thank you, Dr. Candle!" I thanked him, covered my mouth and nose with my sleeve, and withdrew.
That night, I didn't want to sleep, but as soon as I got to the bed, I fell asleep as if I had fainted.
By the time the soldiers outside the tent woke me up, Old Man Candle had already personally led his troops into Diqiu City.
Two days ago, I handed Xiang Chao a set of tattered guard uniforms that had been ripped from the dead man's body. Kuai Yan was really frightened by Zhao Ying, even if Zhao Ying was seriously ill and didn't wake up, the leader was me, a yellow-haired boy, and he didn't dare to open the city gate to collect the corpses for his soldiers. The soldiers who had the misfortune to fall from the tower were lying in the mud, getting cold and hardening a little bit, staring hopelessly at the tower where they had fought.
Kuai is unjust, but he knows that for the defenders of the city, the arrow is the most precious thing. So, yesterday I deliberately had people shoot two rounds of empty arrows when the wind was at its highest. Sure enough, as soon as night fell, a small group of soldiers came out in the dark to pick up arrows that had fallen near the city tower. At that time, Xiang Chao, who was disguised as a patriotic soldier, took the opportunity to infiltrate the emperor.
Xiang Chao entered the city and found the doctor's stone garden that Zhao Ying had left in Diqiu City before, and asked him to lead hundreds of craftsmen who had built the palace for Kuai Shen to surround the palace and capture Kuai Shen, while I planned to attack the city gate at the same time to attract troops in the city.
Who knows, Kuai deaf lost morality and betrayed righteousness, and lost the hearts of the people for a long time. With a call to the nest and the stone garden, hundreds of craftsmen who were brutally enslaved by him surrounded the dormitory overnight. The dormitory was besieged, and the soldiers on the city tower who were chilled by Kuai Yu put down their weapons one after another and surrendered without a fight.
Seeing this, Old Man Candle didn't have time to wake me up, so he climbed into the chariot and commanded the army to rush into Diqiu City in one go.
When dawn broke, I stood in a robe, standing on the Patriotic Wasteland, looking up at the brightly lit towers.
On the third day, on the third day, I captured the emperor hill for Zhao Ying.
I don't know if this is the so-called providence, but at this moment, the heavy rain in Shangqiu City finally has an explanation that makes me feel at ease - as a monarch, the government must be governed with virtue, and the anger of the people must not be violated, otherwise heaven and earth will not be compatible.
Kuai Yu was at the end of his rope, but he didn't want to die yet, so he escaped from the dormitory with his two sons through the secret passage. But as soon as he left the palace, Prince Wei was killed by the craftsmen under the palace wall, and Gongziqing did not escape from Diqiu City alive.
The east is not clear, and the wind that invades the bones and bones lifts the frost and ice chips on the wasteland and sweeps all the way to the west. Under the ruined castle tower, a man with a disheveled hair crawled up from the pile of corpses with a broken sword, and one of the sleeves of his blue robe was torn off, revealing his bloody left arm, and his right foot was sprained when he jumped off the city gate, and he limped when he walked.
This was his country, and the city of Diqiu behind him was his city.
But after today, all this has nothing to do with him.
I watched him silently through the cold corpse, and he saw me.
I thought that he would rush up to me and kill me, but he stepped on the faces of the soldiers on the ground who had fought for him, and staggered westward.
Coward! I sneered, took out a white feather arrow from the arrow basket behind me, took the arrow and drew the bow, and looked sideways.
"Zheng" sounded, and the cold arrow broke through the cold wind and shot into Kuai's calf, and the person in the distance fell down in response.
I rolled over and got on my horse. At this moment, Kuai Yu struggled to get up again, he bent down and broke the feather arrow on his leg, and continued to limp forward with half an arrow.
People who don't blink when they kill people are very reluctant to lose their lives!
I clamped my legs, and the snow-white steed under me spread its four hooves like a lightning bolt across the snowfield.
"You've lost." I pulled the reins and blocked Kuai's way.
Kuai Yu stopped, he looked up at me, and gasped: "Xiao'er, you released the widow today, and the widow will allow you to defend the ten cities in the south of the country in the future!" What Zhao Ying can give, the widow can also give! ”
"Ten cities to the south?"
"Yes, Ten Cities to the South!"
"It's a pity, your hands are so dirty, I don't want anything you give." I rode on my horse and looked down at this man who had humiliated Mingyi, humiliated me, and caused several battles between Jin and Wei, but he was ungrateful and shameless, "Let's go, before you die, I will take you to see someone again." ”
I rode my horse closer to Kuai, who took two steps back and stared at me with blood-red eyes like jackals.
I continued to move forward, and he suddenly raised his broken sword and lunged at me.
It's a pity that at this time, he is no longer the battle-hardened warrior he was back then, and I am no longer a child who was bullied by him on the shore of the muddy water. Before the sword could fall, I had already drawn out the Vorinthine Cord and swung it in his face.
The left side of his face was stripped of a layer of flesh by the barbs on the Vorintint's cord, and he cried out in pain, and I took the opportunity to wrap my hands around and wrap them around his hands with a chain.
The Fuling Rope was made by Yu Ying, who was a Yue ghost with three famous swords, Longyuan, Tai'a, and Gongbu, and it was extremely tough and almost indestructible. Dragged behind the horse by the Vorinth, he could not break free, and could only shout: "Untouchable! You let go of me, I am the Marquis of Heaven canonized! I am a king, a king, and you will be damned...... Untouchable......" He kept scolding, but his voice grew quieter and quieter.
I turned my head to look at the fainting man behind the horse, and the corners of my mouth couldn't help but chuckle.
Untouchables? How long has it been since no one called me that, some people in the world called me the Son of God, some people called me the mountain ghost, some people called me the witch, some people called me my country's priest, and now I can't remember the last time someone called me a pariah......
