Chapter 004: Becoming a Prisoner
The Northern Wei people called!
Xie Buming's first reaction was to run quickly!
The battlefield sword has no eyes, and with her incomparable marksmanship and knife skills, she doesn't want to lose her life in Stone City, which she has so hard picked up and exchanged for her life. But the feet were rooted, and they couldn't move at all. A fearless look poured out on the faces of the people around them, and the shouts of "don't be a slave to the country" were deafening, tearing the night sky apart. The generals on the stage were assigned to make arrangements, and after the battalions received their orders, the battalion commanders led their soldiers to run to the various walls of Stone Town.
The deficit battalion also received an order, and the whole battalion was to follow up to the city tower and guard the west gate.
At this moment, Xie Buming didn't have a chance to leave if he wanted to, so he was pushed and yelled on the wall. Although she was tall, her figure was thin, and her armor was heavy on her body, and she was out of breath when she went upstairs, and before she could stand firmly, Yu Xilin gasped in her ear.
He dragged Xie Buming: "Boy, look, we're done, it's really over!" ”
Xie Buming looked down at his hand, and the foot that had just stood firm suddenly felt weak, and he almost farted. The strand sat down.
The vast snowy field, the vast earth, at this moment, the black pressure outside the stone city is overwhelming, and there is no edge in sight, all of them are all green clothes. The closest to the city gate were all cavalry, horses neighing, soldiers on horseback were solemn and orderly, and the cold light of the armor was terrifying. Dozens of siege vehicles were lined up in the open space of the camp in front of the town, equipped with ladders, wells, and crossbow arrows, and torches swaying in the wind, reflecting the faces of everyone who were killed. Roughly counted, there are more than 50,000 Northern Wei people outside the city gate.
"There are only 10,000 defenders in Stone Town, this, the Northern Barbarians are pouring out of the nest this time!" Yu Xilin was so anxious that he was sweating.
Xie Buming's heart suddenly cooled.
Stone Town is a small city outside Chen Ming Pass, with 5,000 permanent garrisons, plus 5,000 supporting Hantong Army, but 10,000 troops. Look at the walls of Stone City, there are no more than one zhang in total, there are no moats, no moats, no arrow towers, no crossbows, and even the city gate is so simple that it can't withstand two hits from a car.
I was watching, I saw a few cavalry running out of the rear of the Northern Wei army, holding flags and running away from both sides, I heard the horn coming from afar, the sound of Jin Ge and the shouting of killing pushed the infantry forward step by step, the siege equipment slowly approached, and the earth trembled three times.
The army of the Northern Wei Dynasty came like a tide, and the monstrous power immediately frightened the soldiers on the stone city.
"The Northern Barbarians are coming!"
I don't know who shouted, and the defenses on the city wall immediately went into chaos.
"Shoot the arrows, let them go, and don't let them get near the walls!"
"You are not allowed to retreat, if anyone retreats, there will be no mercy!"
The generals on the city wall held spears in their hands, drank loudly, and the horsewhip in their hands was even more mercilessly swung at the people who tried to retreat, until the skin of the person was opened.
"Ahh
In response to him, there were screams that rang out in all directions, arrows flew from below, and if one was not careful, someone fell to the ground. The Northern Wei people began to attack the city!
Yu Xilin's hand holding the knife kept shaking, his lips trembled, and he stared nervously ahead, constantly shooting down the arrows that shot at the two of them. At this time, it is the moment of life and death, but in the blink of an eye, there will be comrades who will fall down covered in blood and never get up again. As soon as he turned around, he saw Xie Buming standing in place in a daze, and couldn't help but push her angrily: "Don't be in a daze, if the city is broken, no one will survive!" ”
Xie Buming's hands and feet were weak, and when he heard this, he gritted his teeth and stood with him with a knife.
She must not die here!
Never!
The ladder of the Northern Wei Dynasty was erected on the city wall, and soldiers kept going up to open it, and as soon as they pushed one, they were shot into holes by the rain of arrows flying from below. The sharp scream came into Xie Buming's ears, making her heart beat in horror and subconsciously shrink back. Before she could recover from it, there was another scream beside her, and the hot liquid flew to her face, the fishy smell was disgusting and disgusting, and the hem of her clothes was already red.
With a snap, the whip of the general guarding the city fell on her body: "Don't hide, I'll cut you if you dodge again!" ”
A Northern Wei soldier climbed up from the ladder, Yu Xilin jumped up, Xie Buming didn't have time to think, retreat was death, so he had to rush up with a knife.
The knife slashed hard at the soldier who climbed up, shocking Xie Buming's wrist, and he desperately held the knife so that he wouldn't fall down.
The soldier fell down from the tower on his back to the sky, smashed the Northern Wei people who were climbing up, and rolled down seven or eight in a row.
"Brother, well done!" Yu Xilin saw it and praised it loudly.
One climbed up, fell, and there were countless more crawling behind. Xie Buming's eyes gradually turned red, only to feel that the Northern Wei people were pouring up from all directions, and they couldn't finish killing no matter how they killed, and gradually, his eyes were covered with blood, and he kept slashing with his consciousness. Yu Xilin on his side was the same, and after the killing, he was already crazy.
There was no time to catch his breath at all, Xie Buming cut another one, and after all, he was not strong enough to hold the knife.
An arrow feather flew from afar, whistling straight towards Xie Buming. Xie Buming just lowered his head and gasped, and the arrow feather brushed against the helmet on her head, and the force on the arrow feather came along the helmet, which shocked Xie Buming's head for a while, his ears were buzzing, and he couldn't hear anything.
In the blur, Yu Xilin pushed her, Xie Buming staggered, slammed into the beacon behind him, and fainted.
At the moment before fainting, I couldn't hear the Northern Wei people cheering clearly: "The city is open-"
When I opened my eyes again, the sky was already slightly cloudy.
The biting cold was worse than yesterday's escape, and something cold fell on his face, awakening Xie Buming's consciousness little by little.
It's snow.
It's snowing heavily.
Large balls of snowflakes fell from the sky, covering the blood that stretched inside and outside Stone City, and the smell of blood was almost invisible, and the blood shed by the soldiers was solidified, and the tragedy of the battle could only be proved by the piles of corpses.
Xie Buming was in pain all over his body, and he still maintained his movements when he was unconscious, feeling that the whole person was frozen, and he couldn't even lift his hands, and the roar in his ears lasted for a while before he could finally hear the sound.
"Go, you guys, remove all the corpses from the city walls!"
"Yes!"
A sound of footsteps came, Xie Buming listened to it in his ears, and couldn't help but be happy: Stone Town finally held on?
She quickly licked the snow off her face and turned it into a moist and dry and hot throat, so as not to miss the rescue if she couldn't answer later. Turning his head with all his might, he looked at the stairs.
A team of ten people in Tsing Yi approached Xie Buming's field of vision.
This is...... Northern Wei soldiers!
Xie Buming was shocked, and immediately remembered the sentence "The city is open" that he heard in his ears before he fell unconscious, it seems that the stone city is broken, and it is already in the pocket of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
What to do?
Seeing that the soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty began to move the corpses on the city gate out of the city, Xie Buming was in a hurry.
She is alive, her body is not as stiff as a corpse, and she will find it as soon as the Northern Wei soldiers move.
"Ah, this one is still alive, and the eyes are open!"
Before Xie Buming could think of a countermeasure, one of the soldiers had already discovered her and shouted in panic.
He poked his head out behind him, glanced at Xie Buming and sneered: "What are you panicking, the injury is not light, you can't move, you can't move, and you're not far from death." Go to two people, escort her to the prisoner camp, and see what General Baili will do with it with the other prisoners! ”
It's good if you don't kill!
Xie Buming breathed a sigh of relief, didn't resist much, and let the two of them drag her to the prisoner camp.
"This knife is good, it can be used."
"It's pitch black, it's not a good thing, it's useless to come."
"Then he hugged it so tightly, I thought it was ......"
"A poor ghost."
One of the two soldiers who dragged along took a fancy to Xie Buming's knife and wanted to take it for himself, but the other couldn't look down on it and made sarcastic remarks. Xie Buming was a little shocked when she heard this, this knife is the ancestral knife of the Abu family, and it is a relic of Abu, she must protect it when she dies, and it must not be taken by the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
But now people are knives, and I am fish and meat, even if she is snatched away, she can't do anything!
Fortunately, it was said, and the one who wanted the knife didn't say it anymore, and after leaving Xie Buming in the prisoner camp, he glanced back and walked away quickly.
Xie Buming was dragged for a while, his upper body was armored, and there was no injury, but the skin behind his thigh was worn out, and there was a hot pain.
As soon as the two walked away, she was immediately surrounded by people.
"Brother, are you from the deficit battalion?"
"Are you okay? Can you move? ”
"Grab him some snow water to drink, quick!"
Everyone asked questions, and someone grabbed the snow and held it in the palm of her hand to turn water into her mouth. Someone grabbed her legs, feet, and arms and rubbed her body to warm her up.
After a long time, Xie Buming finally eased up.
"Thank you!" She thanked softly, in a thin voice.
The others shook their heads, and one of them in armor said, "No thanks, we can only save you for a while, I'm afraid we won't be able to save your life." ”
Xie Buming was stunned for a moment, and the man raised his hand and pointed not far away: "The Northern Barbarians are digging a pit." ”
The expressions of the people around him were suddenly stunned.
Xie Buming didn't understand.
The man said, "Bailijin is really vicious. Broke Stone City and slaughtered the people of Stone City, and our soldiers who fought on the battlefield fell into his hands, and the end was really miserable. ”
"What is he going to do?" Xie Buming propped up his body and looked at it for a long time, still puzzled.
The man sighed and said in despair: "There are two thousand prisoners in Stone City, and Baili Jin probably wants to bury us!" ”
Pit kill!
Xie Buming jumped out of this word in his head, and he immediately trembled.
Once upon a time, I heard Daddy tell the story of the battlefield, pit killing is always a heinous crime, and the buried person cried bitterly before dying, Daddy could always learn vividly, and she was shocked to have nightmares for several nights in a row.
She climbed a few steps with her hands and feet, and stretched out her head to see that countless soldiers in Tsing Yi were digging a long ditch, no more than a zhang wide, obviously not for the purpose of building a city - Stone City was originally a small city outside Chen Ming Pass, and without these many city defenses, Baili Jin would not have to work hard. She used to hear Daddy talk about the battlefield, and when it came to how to deal with the enemy's prisoners, pit killing was the easiest and most convenient way. She understands what fate awaits her!
Her gaze wandered around, and gradually converged into determination: No, get out!
She can't die!
She wants to live, for Ah Bu to live, for the glory of the entire Pei family, she must work hard to live!
There's always a chance for her to escape!
After a short time, I saw that the soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty had cleaned up the corpses of the soldiers of the Eastern Continent, and piled them up one by one by the ditch, forming more than a dozen human forts.
The soldiers of the Eastern Continent were all stunned: "Baili Jin! You have insulted us too much! ”
