When the scorching sun covered the ground, the sound of war drums and fighting rolled again.

"Fathers and elders of Yangzhou City, I am Mrs. Chu State, and Mrs. Chu State is here to quell the rebellion and attack the city, not to kill you."

"If you can fight for me, I Huainan Dao Hero Temple, there will be a place for you!"

"You will be offered incense! There is no end to children and grandchildren! ”

Li Minglou's shouts echoed on the ground again, and the fifth middle school specially arranged a team of soldiers and horses to be responsible for shouting, and the charging soldiers and horses only focused on killing....... Whether it's the people who act as meat shields or the rebels.

The people who served as meat shields, like the last group, experienced hope and despair, and then died.

After a battle, few of the rebels were alive, and they could not force back the soldiers and horses of the besieging Mrs. Chu, and no one could rush out and escape.

But even though several more trenches were filled in by corpses, the soldiers and horses of the Lady of Chu failed to rush to the city to attack the city.

As they approached, crowds of crying people, mostly women and children, were thrown down on the walls.

Li Minglou rang the horn of retreating.

The corpses of the dead in the distance were collected, but the people under the city gate were not allowed to be buried, and many people did not die, and let out a cry, Huainan Dao soldiers and horses wanted to go to the rescue, and they shot arrows and stones on the city wall, killing the people again to demonstrate....

"They are blackmailing us with our benevolence." Zhongwu sighed and looked at Li Minglou, "Madam, in fact, the more people can't bear to die, the more people there are." ”

The surrounding generals also opened their mouths to plead.

"Madame, please let me besiege the city."

"Madam, my department is willing to go to the city for daring to die."

"Madam, the horse thieves are bent on killing all the people in the city, and they will kill them as long as we besiege the city."

Li Minglou looked at them: "I know what you said. She looked at the tall city in front of her, "Wait three more days." ”

Although they didn't understand the difference between waiting for another three days and now, the generals still obeyed the order and retreated.

Zhong Wu knew that Lian Xiaojun had come, and Li Minglou did not hide it from him, saying that Lian Xiaojun was going to sell her the population of Yangzhou City.

It sounds ridiculous, fighting a war is not a business, and Miss really believes it?

"I can't say whether I believe him or not." Li Minglou said, looking up at the dazzling sun in the sky, "Although many things seem impossible, if you have the opportunity to give it a try, let's give it a try." ”

She doesn't have much ability to relive, the only thing she has is opportunities, the opportunity to recognize some people's minds in advance, and the opportunity to meet some people.

Hopefully, these opportunities will bring not only her life, but also the vitality of many more people.

The fifth middle school no longer persuaded each other, and looked at the city in front of him with a solemn expression, guessing when the next attack of the rebels would be, these times it was daytime, because the shock of the tragic death of the people could be clearly seen.

Can they attack the city at night?

When night fell, torches were lit on the city wall of Yangzhou, and figures surged, mixed with cries and shouts.

Groups of people were driven up the city wall, and behind them were the bloodstained knives and guns of the cold forest.

"Give me all tears!"

"Cry out loud! Shout loudly! ”

"Shout, that fairy lady is out there!"

"You all shout loudly, call her to save you!"

The generals stood on the city wall and shouted and laughed, and in order to make these people cry louder, they hit them fiercely.

The sound of cries and cries obscured the sky.

Lian Xiaojun looked back at the dark night sky and smiled with satisfaction: "So you don't have to worry that they will come to attack the city at night." ”

The torch shone brightly on Ma Jiang's face shrunk in the hood, and he said, "You are still very good at defending the city, why don't you do the business of defending the city?" ”

"Because you can't do a loss-making business." Lian Xiaojun said, "My lord, it is too difficult to defend this city, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Not to mention the difficulty of holding it, what can you do to hold this city? The rest of Huainan Road is hopeless, and Ma Jiang understands it in his heart, but people are always greedy, and it is better to be able to hold the city than to run in ashes.

"My lord, stay in the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood." The deputy general whispered on the side, "The overall situation is important." ”

Ma Jiang stepped down the steps, sighed, and lowered his hood again: "Let's go." ”

The adjutant general waved the knife in his hand with a fierce expression: "Hurry up!" ”

Ma Jiang and the pro-soldiers dressed as the people walked out of the alley next to the government with their heads bowed, and the adjutant general escorted them with other pro-soldiers.

The streets were brightly lit, there were torches, houses were burning out of nowhere, soldiers and horses barked like mad dogs, people bleated like sheep out of cages, and were driven to be used as meat shields, to be city walls, to be tools to defend the city.

Ma Jiang's group walked in it without attracting attention, and under the leadership of Lian Xiaojun, they turned around and walked from the chaos of the fire to a dead darkness.

"Isn't this the stage of the City God Temple?" Ma Jiang recognized that in the past, this was a lively place in Yangzhou City, where rich people liked to show off their grandeur, and the drama on the stage continued for three days and five days.

Of course, after the war, there was no drama and no gods and Buddhas, and it was soon deserted.

There's a secret passage to the outside of the city?

"A wealthy businessman took the opportunity to repair the City God's Temple every year, and it took about ten years before and after." Lian Xiaojun said inquisitively under the stage.

Ma Jiang was puzzled: "What is a rich businessman doing digging a secret passage?" ”

Could he have expected it then? Didn't you expect to flee sooner today? In fact, the rich merchant did run away with his family, leaving only some belongings, and even Xiaojun said that this secret passage was the reward for sending these belongings to the rich merchant.

Lian Xiaojun said: "He said that he didn't do anything, just to have fun, his family didn't know about this matter, he specially raised a few craftsmen, and after doing this, those craftsmen were also sent away by him, which became his own secret, he said that every time he walked through the City God Temple in the past ten years, he was very happy." ”

I heard that some rich businessmen like to listen to the sound of money hitting the lake, so they let their subordinates carry the money and throw it into the water..... It is said that troubled times are absurd, but in fact, absurd and strange things also emerge in an endless stream in peaceful and prosperous times.

Ma Jiang didn't bother to think about it anymore.

"My lord, this is the entrance." Lian Xiaojun pointed to a small hole that only one person could climb into, "It's more spacious to go in and walk for a while." ”

Ma Jiang sighed, took the torch from the deputy general's hand and looked at it, but he didn't mean to go in.

Lian Xiaojun rolled up his sleeves and tied his clothes, and his waist was long and his back was softly bent: "I'll lead the way for adults." ”

Ma Jiang grabbed his arm: "Xiaojun is still with me." ”

The adjutant general ordered a pro-soldier, and the pro-soldier was not afraid, it was all at this time, no matter how he died, at least this still had half a chance to live.

One by one, the soldiers climbed in one by one, and Ma Jiangcai took Lian Xiaojun to follow in.

The torches were extinguished one by one, and the dead silence was restored under the stage of the City God's Temple, and the cries in the city continued, like hell.

......

......

The sound of fighting starts and the sound of fighting falls, and the battle is as endless as the rising and setting of the sun.

Li Minglou turned over his palm and saw that the flesh had been worn out.

"Madame, let me beat the drums." Bao Bao clenched the black umbrella and said.

Li Minglou always insisted on beating the drum and giving orders.

She clasped her palm: "No. ”

Her voice was also hoarse, and even if there were soldiers and horses in charge of shouting, she would always speak first.

Zhong Wu didn't say anything on the side, and there was still one day, he thought to himself.

"Your Excellency." One of the generals came quickly, "The situation has changed somewhat. ”

Variation? What's changed?

The general's expression was a little hesitant, obviously not quite sure: "We collected the dead people at the right time, and when we reached the city wall, the rebels did not attack again, nor did they kill the people to force us back. ”

Zhongwu said: "Maybe it's because you know that we don't dare to attack the city, so you don't threaten again?" ”

The general hesitated, but his intuition still prevailed over reason, and said, "On the city wall, there is some chaos. ”

Not only is there some chaos on the city wall, but there is also some chaos in the city, of course, it has always been chaotic, and the rabid dog is still vicious, but it seems that he is too tired to run, and his spirit is a little trance.

"Your Excellency is gone!"

"How is that possible!"

"There are no adults in the government!"

First a group of generals ran out of the government, then more generals ran to the government, and then not only the generals, but also ordinary soldiers began to run in, running in and out, running around the streets, like flies without heads.

"Find Ma-sama!"

"Master Ma is gone!"

"Master Ma has run away!"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"Not nonsense! Master Ma is gone, Lord Ma's lieutenant general and personal soldiers are gone! ”

The flies buzzed around, and the herd of pigs and sheep that were driven were knocked into the corner, and when they heard their shouts, they looked horrified and incredulous.

Ma Jiang, ran away?

Surrounded by siege, flies can't fly out, if he could run, Ma Jiang would have flown a long time ago, why wait until now?

The people were frightened, dazed, desperate and disbelieving, and used all their strength on unconscious sobbing, only one person raised his head, did not sob, and his eyes were still shining.

Is this a dream? This is happening!

Ding San opened a small noodle shop in the city, of course, it was closed a long time ago, three days ago a beautiful young man knocked on his door, saying that he was hungry and wanted to eat a bowl of clear water noodles, add an egg, sprinkle some green onions, if the eggs could be fried better, he was willing to pay.

This is not a matter of money at all, Ding San feels that this young man is crazy, what kind of noodles do you eat at this time, and you still eat so carefully, everyone is going to die.

But who can withstand the expectant eyes of the beauty, since he is going to die, let him eat what he wants, Ding San personally cooked and used all the skills in his life to make a bowl of noodles.

The beautiful boy smiled, and was embarrassed to say that the money he brought with him was not enough to pay for this delicacy, so he decided to give him a chance to survive.

What is the chance to survive at this time, the wise man has already committed suicide, Ding San ignored him, waved his hand and let him go.

"You remember what I said, and when Ma Jiang is gone, you run out and shout everywhere." The pretty boy whispered in his ear......

Ding San stood up from the crowd and used all the strength of his life.

"Ma Jiang is dead! Ma Jiang is dead! Let's run! ”
