27. The war of the man of Jerod

Under the city of Yanjing, the southern army camp, the siege has entered the afternoon of the third day.

"Master Hou, the striker has withdrawn from the three divisions.

The sons and daughters fought to the death today, and they had waited for the city wall, but unfortunately they were forced to retreat by the northerners at the cost of casualties. The three men and horses are now suffering heavy casualties, and they are no longer able to fight. ”

The adjutant general, who had supervised the battle on the front line before, wiped the sweat mixed with black ash on his face, leaned over and sat in the camp tent with an expressionless face and said:

"There have been 19 sieges today, more than 10,000 Beikou have been killed and wounded, and the casualties of our army should not be underestimated. Master Hou, this battle is tragic, and it is close to night, for the morale of the battalion, why not rest for the night? ”

"How's the morale of the battalion units?"

Waiting, noncommittal, he stared at the map, his tone calm, and answered the question that was not what he had asked.

The adjutant general's expression changed slightly, and he replied:

"All units of the Hundred Battles Army are not afraid of death and injury, and the spirit of war is still the same. The rest of the border armies did not suffer many casualties, and their morale was still maintained, but they fought for days and days, and the soldiers were tired. ”

"Hmm."

Wei Hou nodded, twisted his beard, and said:

"You go and arrange it.

Leave four troops to prepare in the camp, and the other departments beat drums to gather for backup. Thinking about it, we are so tired that the northerners are not iron-clad, they will only be more tired than us!

The stage of thwarting the enemy's spirit has passed, and the next step is the critical time to defeat the enemy in a battle! ”

Zhao Lian's eyes flashed with fierce light, he moved his body like a tiger, waved his hand, and said in a cold voice:

"The generals of a hundred battles are really worthy of being the pillars of the country, and since the sons and daughters are enthusiastic about fighting, it is not easy to stop them. Send five divisions of the Hundred Battle Army, with fifteen thousand men remaining.

After the pillar incense, go to the city to fight at night!

The bows and crossbows of the whole army were in the cloud car, with enough arrows and fire oil, as well as explosive bombs made by craftsmen in the army, all of which were thrown into Yanjing City! ”

The old man stood up, threw away the two small iron balls in his hand, opened his arms, and said:

"Left and right, for this will be armored!"

The soldiers in the tent immediately stepped forward and put on black armor for the prestige.

There were also people who sent heavy battle helmets, a tall heir of the Zhao family, holding a heavy and sharp Qinglong sword for Weihou.

Zhao Lian turned his head to look at the adjutant general waiting for orders beside him, and his tone became colder and colder.

"Tonight's battle, Ben will personally supervise it. The generals of the various armies need to order and prohibit, fight to the death with their hearts, and if they go on a business trip, they will come and see you! ”

"Yes!"

The adjutant general's heart tightened, and Wei Hou had made a final decision.

Tonight is the time for a decisive battle without warning.

The siege lasted only three days, and less than half of the more than 30,000 soldiers who came with the army remained.

Nearly 20,000 soldiers were buried under Yanjing City within three days.

Not to mention the northerners on the city walls.

Even the Southern Army itself was a little overwhelmed by this tactic that regarded human life as a mustard.

But in the past few days, Wei Hou has become more and more cold, and more rigid and self-serving.

The majesty is getting heavier, which puts great pressure on his subordinates.

They didn't dare to guess what Wei Hou thought, and they didn't dare to ask.

But what Hou Ye said, it is indeed a secret combination of the law of the soldiers, after the three-day decisive battle, after more than 20,000 lives of blood scattered all over the city, the northerners defenders are indeed on the verge of exhaustion and collapse.

It's like a string that has been tightened to the extreme, and with a little more pressure, it will break.

Maybe after a night's rest, morale can recover a little.

But it's a pity that Zhao Lian, who has fought all his life, will not give them another chance to rest and recover.

The rhythm of this battle.

has been quietly controlled by Zhao Lian.

Now, it's the turn of this southern veteran to play the card of lore.

At the same time, on the wall of Yanjing City, which had just quieted down, the general of the imperial guard of the city wall was carrying out a very special activity.

In the past few days, the person in charge of guarding the city wall is the head of the small aristocratic family who raised troops with the lord of the small country more than half a year ago.

After calling Yan Mu.

He was born in a small tribe in Liaodong, and was originally a warrior in the army who followed Yelu Chong's conquest, but after the death of the old lord, he was unwilling to be loyal to the Tongwu Sect, so he was driven out of the army, and was suppressed by the happy doglegs of the national teacher for more than ten years.

Depressed, it is now reactivated by the lord of the small country, relying on battle to defend the city.

It is already regarded as a two-fold "minister from the dragon".

In the face of the violent Southern Army, it may be killed at any time, this is really not an easy job, and the tragedy of the three-day siege is indeed rare in the life of Wanyan Mu.

But the kind of ambition that can show his ambition before he dies makes Wan Yanmu look high-spirited even if he is covered in blood.

Moreover, the youngest son in the family was also sent out of Yanjing by the lord of the country, and he no longer has any worries.

In the past few days, the general who defended the city has strategized, and the generals on the city wall have admired him very much before every battle.

But now, the brave and incomparable General Wanyan Mu is very doggy behind a young man in small black armor, which is completely different from the majestic appearance of the past.

The black-armored young man was also accompanied by a large group of brave warriors with big shoulders and round waists, all with sharp eyes, holding long soldiers, and his whole body was full of evil.

The identity of a teenager is bound to be extraordinary.

"Your Majesty, how can you come to the front line with your golden body?"

The general defending the city was covered in cold sweat, and while talking to the lord of the small country, he asked the eunuch Ade, who was also wearing small armor, with his eyes.

Why do you want to bring the lord of the country to compare the dangerous place, isn't this adding to the chaos!

Ade struggled to carry the heavy halberd, and his eyes were full of helplessness.

He persuaded him, and all the methods were used.

But the lord of the country doesn't listen, he has his own plan, what else can he do?

"Wan Yanqing doesn't have to worry so much."

Yelu Jienan did not have the slightest consciousness of causing trouble to others, he held a sharp short sword inlaid with pearls and jade, and looked at everything in front of him curiously.

"I'm just worried about the war, and today I'm here to take a look at the situation on the front line, so I can relax. I will take a look and leave, and I will never affect your command, and I will never give orders indiscriminately.

Wan Yanqing is relieved. ”

As he spoke, Yelu Jienan looked around, his eyes full of exploration, and it was the first time he had seen the real battlefield tragic.

However, the purpose of his visit to the wall today was not as simple as he said.

In front of him, there was a city wall that smelled of blood, and the blue masonry was full of cracks and cracks, as if it had been painted with an ominous layer of red paint.

The soldiers guarding here are changing their guards, and there is a lot of commotion.

But there is order in the chaos.

The veterans, numbed by the fierce siege warfare, huddled in the corners of the wall with their weapons in their hands, seizing every breath to rest.

They clutched the dry food and chewed without appetite.

The whole person's eyes are godless, as if they are active people, but this kind of rest that is just the brain can allow the soldiers to save some physical strength, and once something happens, the reaction will be extremely fast.

As for the new pawns, their reaction was much worse.

Even if the war ends briefly.

But one by one there are still some souls.

Holding the blade in his arms tightly, some hugged his head and cried, and some looked dull, witnessing the tragedy in the world, making these new soldiers look like ashes.

Those soldiers who went down to the city to change their defenses will also bring the corpses in the city with them, and the corpses will die in a variety of strange ways, so that the little lord of the country who is not afraid of the sky and the earth will also be a little unbearable to look at directly.

He walked a few steps, and found a stain under his feet that was red mixed with suspicious white spots, and with a little thought, he could guess what it was.

His throat moved, trying to hold back the urge to vomit.

I also forcibly didn't let myself be cranky, and my steps were bigger, and I continued to move forward.

After stepping out of a section of the city wall, among the silent, tired old pawns, the little lord soon saw a strange fellow.

He looks like he is twenty or thirty years old, although he is also fighting to the death, but he behaves completely different from other silent soldiers.

His face was still stained with blood, but he kept talking to the others around him.

Although he didn't get a reply, he himself laughed from time to time.

It's like I'm amused by myself.

In this interval of slaughtering battle groups, this person behaved quite naturally, as if sitting on his own kang and talking about current affairs with three or five friends.

He smoked his cigarette stick beautifully, looked at the others with gentle eyes, and shared his own cigarette stick with the other brothers, one of them took a puff in silence, and handed it to the next person.

Choking smoke rises, and although few people speak, the atmosphere in this place is far better than in other places.

However, this military leader, who was very good to his own people, took a few breaths, but looked at the son-in-law in front of him with unkind eyes.

"You cucumber eggs, don't suffer Lao Tzu!"

The little lord stretched out his hand curiously, wanting to touch the dry food nest at the feet of the old man in front of him, but was pulled away by the military leader's irritable tone.

"Woooo"

Immediately, more than a dozen knives were drawn from behind the little country lord to hack this daring guy to death.

The latter was undaunted, and also grabbed the spear full of blood and flesh around him, and scolded.

This old pawn is on the city wall, and he seems to be very arranged.

He stood up together, and the silent rest of the old soldiers around him all stood up in unison, and the recruits didn't know what was happening, but they also stood up.

Dozens of people, exuding the courage of the same enemy, made the small lord and his guards immediately surrounded by soldiers several times their size.

"Yards! Cheng madman! Put the gun down for Lao Tzu! ”

Wan Yanmu saw the vision in front of him, his heart was shocked, and he protected in front of Yelu Jienan, who looked surprised.

The waist knife in his hand was pulled out in half, and he shouted:

"Do you know who this person is! If you dare to make noise, you're really blind! ”

"I don't care who this cucumber egg is!"

The old soldier named Cheng Madman smacked rudely and scolded:

"Lao Tzu took his brothers to defend the city for three days, and the blood was almost dry, and this city wall is now Lao Tzu's biggest! The king of heaven Lao Tzu is here, and I have to treat Lao Tzu obediently!

Lao Tzu is very annoyed now, General Wanyan, Lao Tzu respects you as a man, don't embarrass you, and you don't want to provoke Lao Tzu.

Let this rabbit-like boy get away from Lao Tzu! ”

Cheng Luozi waved his hand and shouted:

"The men with eggs in Yanjing City haven't died yet, and it's not the turn of the little bastard who hasn't grown his hair to send him to death!"

Wanyan Mu was about to scold, but was pulled by Yelu Jienan's hand.

The little lord whispered:

"The strong man is right. They fought and shed blood for this city, and on this city wall today, even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu came, and he had to be a head shorter than them. ”

After speaking, the little country lord blinked, he hid behind Wan Yan Mu, and shouted to the old soldiers who hated the same enemy in front of him:

"You said that all the men with eggs in Yanjing City are coming here, so today, I am here too. Brave men, would you like to be my comrades? ”

"Hahahaha"

The madman who said this looked up to the sky and laughed, and the man glanced at Yelu Jienan, and he said:

"Just you?

Little arms and legs, go home and hide in the maid's arms to feed, go home, don't tease Lao Tzu. If you don't leave, the southerners will go to the city for a while, I'm afraid they will scare you into peeing your pants. ”

"Woo, woo, woo"

As soon as the man finished speaking, a low trumpet sounded under the city walls.

All the voices stopped at this moment.

Wan Yan Mu and Cheng Maniac reacted the fastest.

The two of them pushed aside the crowd, lay on their stomachs at the head of the city, and looked down, and at the beginning of the night, in the camp of the Southern Army a few miles away, the starry firelight was surging.

The cacophony of firelight could be heard for miles.

"Not good! The southerners are in general attack! ”

Wan Yan Mu was shocked and angry.

He glanced back at Yelu Jienan and stomped his foot hard.

Why does it have to be at this time!

He turned his head again, glared at Cheng Madman fiercely, and scolded:

"If you know you're a crow's mouth, you can't just shut up! You stinky! It is better to say that the good is not effective, and the bad one is more accurate than the other!

Before the war began, it was time to sew up your mouth! ”

Cheng Maniac did not refute this time.

In the laughter of the surrounding soldiers, he touched his head in a wry manner, looking embarrassed, as if this southerner picked the general attack at this time, and it was all the "credit" of his crow's mouth.

Wan Yanmu looked back, and the surprise attack of the southerners caused chaos on the city wall.

All the military horses are entering the defensive position, which will make the lord of the country retreat, it is too late.

"Cheng madman, you take people to stay here! Escort him down to the city! Death can't take a step back! ”

The general turned around and roared angrily, and was about to speak, when he heard the little lord whisper to him:

"After Yan Qing, go and get busy, you can't leave here, don't worry about me, I have guards to protect me, and I will find an opportunity to go down to the city." This time, I made a mess for you, but Wan Yanqing can't give up eating because of choking.

If the southerners attack the city because I have disturbed the city wall, it will not be able to save the city or save me. ”

"Your Majesty, you..."

Wan Yanmu saw that Yelu Jienan was not flustered, and remembered the bloody night more than half a year ago.

The small lord in front of him is not as simple as he seems on the surface.

What's more, what the lord of the country said also makes sense.

If you can't protect this section of the wall, no one will want to protect it.

The general's heart was broken, and he left his own soldiers here, and then he confessed to Yelu Jienan, and rushed to another place.

"Look at what you see! At a young age, what can you understand? ”

A rude shout came from behind the little country lord.

Yelu Jienan looked back, and the head of the army, Cheng Madman, was leading dozens of people with a dissatisfied face, protecting his side. Seeing that the war was about to start, this military leader was not afraid, but was a little excited, and he rubbed his hands together and said:

"You cucumber egg, go down to the city with Lao Tzu and send you down, so that Lao Tzu can kill you!"

"Not a chance."

The lord of the small country replied in a calm tone.

"Huh?"

Cheng Madman said in surprise:

"What did you say?"

"I said, you self-regarded hero, do you dare to make a bet with my cucumber egg?"

The male god Jerodine said mysteriously:

"I said that this battle will end in half an hour at most, and the southerners will not be able to take the city wall, and they will withdraw their troops tonight. The bitter battle you have been waiting for is over.

Do you believe it or not? ”

"Don't believe it!"

Madman Cheng sneered and said:

"I don't see it, could it be that you, the yellow-mouthed child, are the reincarnations of the dead father of the old thief Zhao Lian? If you speak, the old thief will listen?

Why should these crazy southerners listen to you? ”

"That's why I bet."

The lord of the little country laughed and said:

"If I win, you rammer, you will be a Zhuang Ding leader for me, and take care of the home and nursing home for me, okay? You unobstructed man, you won't be afraid, will you? ”

"So I'm waiting for Lao Tzu here."

Madman Cheng sneered and said:

"I thought you were a big deal, listening to what you said, you are just a dirt stick and a bad gentleman, you don't want to provoke Lao Tzu, what does it matter if Lao Tzu should obey you?"

"Heh, then you have a good look."

Yelu Jienan chuckled, he looked at the northwest sky, and said in a voice that only he could hear:

"Today, I'm going to wait for you and make a trick."

"The war you are waiting for is over, but the war of loneliness is about to begin. Lone is here today, take a good look at that evil enemy, and talk and laugh with him again.

The man of my Yelu family is never afraid of challenges!

Come on, let's see, in the end, who will kill the deer! ”
