Chapter 019 [Beauty Walk]
In the blink of an eye, Shouchun City has been besieged for three days.
During this period, the Allied camp stationed ten miles outside the city remained calm, with no movement of troops and horses, and no signs of a large-scale assault on the city.
Yuan Shu, who was trapped in the city, and tens of thousands of defenders under his command, could not be calm. Tens of thousands of young men in the city were forcibly conscripted, and the leading generals ordered them to carry defensive ordnance such as stones, rolling logs, and fire oil, and to assist the defenders in defending the city.
After three days, the stones and rolling trees on the head of Shouchun City were piled up, and the steaming cauldron with a foul smell was all over the city, and it was smoked so that the people in the city closed their doors and windows tightly and did not dare to show their heads. However, this is just the beginning, and it is the hardest. The hardest days are yet to come.
In this way, the army was mobilized to prepare a garrison, but they did not wait for the expected siege. As the Allied troops did not move, the defenders of Shouchun could only watch the Allied soldiers outside the city leisurely drink wine and eat meat, going in and out of the camp, but they could not slack off a little, and they must fight to protect the city. As a result, the soldiers of the defending army were always worried and nervous, and they did not dare to relax for a moment, and every day was spent in trembling. This was true during the day, and even worse at night, lest the Allies take advantage of the night and force the defenders to doze off with one eye open.
This kind of torture and suffering is incomprehensible to ordinary people, and it is also unbearable for ordinary people.
On the fourth day of the siege, a large number of people fled outside the east gate, which had been deliberately omitted, but the allies did not stop them, allowing them to leave the city and go their separate ways. This example is open. Out of control. In one day, the east gate of Shouchun City was forced to open four times, and more than 10,000 people left the city one after another. Flee for your life.
However, in the early morning of the fifth day, when the suspension bridge of the east gate slowly fell, and thousands of people rushed out of the city gate, ten thousand arrows suddenly shot at the head of the city, shooting all the people who were eager to leave the city. As the city gate closed again, the remains of the corpse outside the gate flooded the city gate, completely blocking the east gate.
Apparently. The reason why the east gate was opened the day before was due to favoritism and fraud by the generals defending the city. First release some civilians who are eager to escape the fighting, and test the reaction of the allies. Then he tried again, and after being convinced that there was no danger of leaving the city, he sent the relatives and families of the defending generals out of the city. The officials and gentry in the city heard the wind and used all kinds of means in exchange for the opportunity to escape from the city. So there was a strange thing about opening the city gates four times in one day.
However, when Yuan Shu learned the news. More than 10,000 people in the city have left the city, which made Yuan Shu thunderous and angry, and immediately wanted to behead the gatekeeper, but unexpectedly, the guard had already slipped away and fled with the fourth group of people.
So in order to deter the people in the city, when the east gate was opened the next day, Yuan Shu brazenly ordered to shoot more than 3,000 people to make an example of chickens and monkeys. Set an example. From then on, the people of the city and the gentry did not dare to try to escape from the city. can only live and die with Shouchun City, and defend the city wholeheartedly.
Regarding the escape incident that occurred outside the east gate, Li Li learned the news as soon as possible in the Allied camp ten miles away from the city. At that time, he laughed it off, shook his head and said that he didn't care, it was a good thing that the people could escape, and he didn't want to stop them and let them go. For this reason, Li Li also specially instructed his soldiers to inform Lu Bu and Xu Huang not to take the opportunity to attack the east gate, so as not to hurt innocent people. Lu Bu and Xu Huang sighed after hearing the news, although they did not complain in public that Li Li was too kind, but they had this idea in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it.
The Allies did not take the opportunity to attack the east gate, but Yuan Shu in the city took the lead in killing, slaughtering thousands of people in one fell swoop and blocking the city gate with corpses. Yuan Shu's move was really unexpected by everyone, which made generals such as Lu Bu and Xu Huang very indignant, and scolded Yuan Shu for being inferior to beasts and exterminating human nature.
However, Li Li, who was sitting in the camp, shook his head after hearing the news, stood at the door of the big tent and looked at Shouchun City, and sighed softly: "Heaven is forgivable, but you can't live if you do your own evil." Heaven must first make it mad if it wants to perish. Yuan Highway has gone crazy, but killing the people of the clan in vain but still wanting to defend the city is tantamount to digging his own grave. Within half a month, Shouchun City was self-defeating??????"
????????????????????????
After another three days, Shouchun City was still calm, and the Allied forces besieging the city were still holding their ground.
The next day, Li Li's prophecy did not come true, but the land of Huainan ushered in the first snow since the beginning of winter.
Sneaking into the night with the wind, the winter snow is quietly coming.
After one night, the outside of Shouchun City was white, and the white snowflakes danced in the wind, fluttering and sprinkling. The whole sky is a stage for them to show their bodies, allowing them to sway, flip and dance to their heart's content. In this vast land, they are the protagonists, and the people under the snowflakes are their loyal audiences, and those teenagers with dreams and innocent women are their die-hard "fans".
Allied battalions. Li Li really couldn't stand the bewitchment of Chen Yu, Xiao Qiao, Foot Trainer and Lu Lingqi, couldn't stand their delicate coquettishness and strange gentleness, and couldn't bear their soft grinding and hard bubbles. So under the combination of soft and hard work of the four women, Li Li took them to the hills north of the camp to enjoy the snow, and accompanied them with a camp tent and a "hot pot" that they loved.
Obviously, this is not just a midwinter snow viewing. The four women got together and pulled their shared husbands, and with so much "luggage", they seemed to be ready to "set up camp" on the hills and try the taste of "Snow Mountain Beauty".
The tents here are not simply tents, but wooden huts on the top of the mountain. Except for the curtain roof, the entire wooden house is covered by a curtain and is relatively simple in decoration, so it still looks like a tent, but in fact it is a log cabin made of wood.
Of course, this kind of rough work does not need Xiao Qiao and the four girls of the foot trainer to do it themselves, and they have their own personal guards to do it for them. Moreover, it is not a trivial matter for Li Li to go out to camp to enjoy the snow, and before the couple and his wife have left, the three thousand golden guards have already set out, surrounding the entire hill and leaving no dead ends. As a result, the slightly larger animals in the mountains and forests were hunted one by one to clear a hidden danger. Is this still the case for animals, let alone humans?
Therefore, when Li Li and his four daughters hiked up the mountain, the entire mountain forest had been "cleared" in advance and became a quiet and quiet private garden. The tent on the top of the mountain has also been built, and five relatively flat areas have been cleared on the top of the mountain, and five exquisite and unique cabins have been erected, which are then hidden in the dancing snowflakes, like a dreamlike quiet fairyland.
Dispatching 3,000 soldiers at every turn is undoubtedly a result of rejuvenating the army and mobilizing the people, laboring the people and losing money, but for Li Li, it is already a result of simplicity and silence. After all, Huainan has not yet been pacified, and there are many potential safety hazards, and there may be unknown dangers hidden in the seemingly calm snow-capped mountains. What's more, Xiao Qiao, Foot Trainer, Chen Yu and others are delicate and frail, how can Li Li let them take risks lightly? It is necessary to have appropriate security protection measures, and the protection of the 3,000 armor soldiers accompanying them is also reasonable, and it is not excessive.
Walking in the fluttering snowflakes, Li Li found that the snow on the ground was very shallow, barely reaching the soles of his shoes, which was completely different from the scene of Youzhou being icy and snowy, and the snow was knee-high. However, it is precisely because the snow is very shallow that the road up the mountain is more and more slippery, and it is difficult to walk three times.
Snowflakes were flying all over the sky, and Li Li, who was climbing the mountain on foot, and his party of five people, holding hands, walked slowly forward. Li Zhi, Chen Zhi and others, the commanders of the guards, followed from a distance, stopping and stopping, looking around from time to time, and their minds did not dare to relax for a moment.
The whistling north wind with snowflakes raging, not only did not stop the enthusiasm of Xiao Qiao and Lu Lingqi for mountaineering, but made them more and more happy and excited. At first, Li Li walked in the front, and the man should have sheltered the woman from the wind and snow, but he didn't go far, and Xiao Qiao, who was pulling one behind him, and the children of the foot trainer had slipped and fallen many times. Although they were still "giggling" and laughing after slipping, it didn't hurt at all, but Li Li looked distressed. So he walked among the women, the sturdy Lu Lingqi walked in front, Li Li held the step trainer with his left hand, pulled Xiao Qiao with his right hand, and Chen Yu held Xiao Qiao's hand and walked at the end.
A man and four women held hands, slowly ascending the mountain in the face of the wind and snow, laughing all the way forward. The back of the hand is cold, but the palm of the hand is hot, and the feet are muddy and unstable, but the hearts of the women already belong to them, solid as a rock, and unswerving. No matter how bitter the road ahead is, as long as there is love in the heart, suffering is just to set off happiness, and the wind and snow are just for people who love each other to learn to persevere, know how to cherish, and cherish the hard-won happiness.
At this moment, the people who love each other are like snowflakes flying in the air, although there is a cold wind raging and disturbing, but it can't hide their enchanting and gorgeous figures, and can't erode their holy sentiments.
Happiness is as simple as that. Without hardship, you won't know how to cherish, without suffering, you can't experience sweetness, and without paying, you can't taste the joy of harvest. Happiness in suffering, joy in suffering, happiness comes from suffering. Just as if you don't know bitterness, you don't know sweetness, and only after bitterness can there be sweetness, can you feel happy, and you can touch happiness.
Taste life and cherish the people in front of you.
?????? No matter how difficult the road is, there will be an end to it, as long as you are willing to persist and do not give up, you can always climb to the top of the mountain, look down on the vast land, share the scenery of the mountain top with the snowflakes soaring in the sky, and dance with the cold wind.
"Oh--ha!" Xiao Qiao, the foot trainer, Chen Yu and Lu Lingqi, who finally climbed to the top of the mountain, cheered and hugged each other, and danced with the white snowflakes. Li Li, who was standing beside him who was fleeing for his life, looked at their smiling faces that exuded hot red and fluttering, and the graceful and graceful dancing, his face showed a heartfelt smile. For their bright smiles at the moment, no matter how much effort and hard work, it is worth it, love her and give her happiness, and men should have feelings as heavy as mountains.
