Chapter 115: General Xue
The Di army attacked the city, this time it was basically hand-to-hand combat on the city wall, I led everyone to fight and retreat, and the people around me fell one by one, retreating to the city and leaving dozens of people.
I thought about leaving, because saving the truth is the real goal, but there are still thousands of women and children in Kakuro who need to be protected, and I am the hope of Kakudo.
The body can be destroyed, but the spirit cannot be dissolved.
Even if you end up on your own, you must persevere until you don't let women and children suffer.
Even if it's just fantasy.
Just when there were nine soldiers left around him, a large number of soldiers rushed in from the city gate, led by Chongming, who shouted in his mouth.
"General Fei, hold on, we're here to save you!"
I was relieved and fought even more bravely with the soldiers around me.
At the end of the battle, I took food and grass and set off with the 60,000 troops who came to the rescue. When I came to the base camp, Master Wen summoned me, read out the decree of the appointment of the king, and gave me 100,000 shell coins and a box of jewels as a reward for my food and fortification of the city.
I returned to the tent, summoned Centurion Chongming, and gave him all the rewards to be distributed among the soldiers who died in battle and the warriors of Jiaocheng.
Chongming took the order and left.
Wen Taishi's army attacked the city all the way and hit the capital of Rong.
The first line of defense is a ditch, one zhang deep and two zhang wide, and the second line of defense is a city wall, which is more than ten meters high.
There are 200,000 defenders in the city, and although our army has 300,000 horses, in the face of such strong city defense facilities, we still can't have an advantage in numbers.
Wen Taishi and the generals discussed the siege plan day and night, it should be that they couldn't come up with a good plan, I didn't participate, in Wen Taishi's mind, I am still a little general.
I am confident about siege, although the culture is not high, but I have watched many movies, and those siege scenes are vivid.
The only thing needed is a presentation platform.
That night, I was drinking in the tent with Yue Jie, the commander of the thousand commanders, and Wen Taishi was passing by inspecting the barracks, so I hurriedly stepped forward to meet him and invited him into the tent to drink.
Wen Taishi said that he was busy with military affairs, and I said that I had my own siege plan and wanted to discuss it with him, so I happily entered the tent and drank.
On the wine table, I proposed two methods of building soil for the platform and making a stone thrower, Wen Taishi has been on the battlefield for a long time, and suddenly became enlightened after listening, and said happily that after breaking the city, I am the first credit.
Master Wen summoned a superb carpenter, and I described the general appearance of the stone thrower, and they immediately understood it and led people to start building the stone thrower.
Soldiers stand out of the range of arrows.
The carpenter built hundreds of stone throwers, and the stonemasons brought in countless 500 pounds of stones.
At the beginning of the siege operation, the stone thrower kept throwing large stones on the city wall, and the smashing on the city wall was a big pit, and people turned into a mess of mud next to each other.
After smashing for most of the day, the city wall smashed more than a dozen gaps, and when I heard the order of the Taishi, the soldiers of our army carried the wooden platoon and charged.
The two sides fought fiercely for a day and night, and our army relied on the numerical superiority to defeat the Rong army and rush into the imperial city, capturing the Rong king.
From then on, I was able to sit in the military tent for a meeting, which meant that I became a general under Wen Taishi, and I had a greater opportunity to get close to Su Daji.
Subdued the Rong tribe, Wen Taishi waved his army south, and then went to conquer the Di tribe, which lasted half a year to defeat the Di tribe.
I am in the first row on the right row in the seat of the general, indicating that I have become the second general in the army, and the first general is Jiang Qichun, the younger brother of Empress Jiang.
Hearing that the Taishi class returned to the court, the king personally went out of the city gate to greet him, and feasted on the generals who participated in the war, accompanied by hundreds of civil and military officials in the court.
I'm one of them.
The king of Su gave a reward at the banquet, Jiang Qichun was made a marquis, and I got a general's mansion and beautiful women and servants.
During the drinking process, Jiang Qichun pretended to drink too much wine, humiliated the important minister Fei Zhong many times, and the king of Xuan angrily reprimanded, and Queen Jiang, who was sitting next to her, came out to play a round.
It seems that the grievances between the Jiang family and Fei Zhong have been going on for a long time, and they are not because of Su Daji.
After the banquet was dispersed, I gave the reward beauties to Yue Jie and Chongming, lived alone in the general's mansion, and often summoned Chongming to come over to drink and inquire about the news in the palace.
I learned that Su Daji didn't know why, she didn't meet the king when she entered the palace, and now she lives in a remote place in the palace, and there is only one palace maid by her side.
According to the palace, Su Daji was beaten into the cold palace, which should have been done by Queen Jiang.
If that's the case, I'll rest assured that it will be Queen Jiang who will follow King Su to pick up the star tower and self-immolate in the future, not Su Daji.
This process is different from that in "The Romance of the Gods", although the family's argument can only be half-believed, but at least there is still the word 'half-believed'.
As for the last celebration banquet, the Jiang family and Fei Zhong were incompatible, Fei Zhong was humiliated and would inevitably fight back, and his biggest opponent was Queen Jiang.
The best weapon against women is another more powerful woman, and Su Daji belongs to this category of women.
It is estimated that Fei Zhong is currently paying attention to Su Daji, but he can't find an opportunity.
For me, Fei Zhong is a dangerous person, and he must be eliminated quickly, and the dead cannot play a conspiracy, which is not changing history.
Changing women is not history, changing dynasties is history.
After two battles, I learned that the king's rampant conquest caused the subject country to revolt, and it was only later that he perished.
After careful consideration, I decided to wait for an opportunity to assassinate Fei Zhong and never suffer from future troubles.
The time finally came, the king of Xuan was so happy, he led the troops to attack Dongyi to expand the territory, Wen Taishi guarded the court, I assassinated Fei Zhong, even if the East Window incident happened, as Wen Taishi's favorite general, he would not be punished with capital punishment.
I went to Fei Zhong's house twice at night to find out where he slept and the guards, and on the third day, I moved on the night.
Fei Zhong's family is in the fifth courtyard, he lives in a three-story small building in the fourth entrance, and there is a ten-person team of guards patrolling at night, arriving at the fourth courtyard every five minutes.
Five minutes is more than enough time for me.
I covered my face and put on a black tights, sneaked into the fourth courtyard, and when a wave of patrols passed, I quickly climbed up to the second floor, opened the window and climbed in.
Fei Zhong lived in the room on the right, I pushed open the door and crept in, came to the side of the bed and lifted the curtain, he and the concubine were sleeping on the bed, I took out a bamboo dagger, covered his mouth with my right hand, and slashed my throat with my left hand.
Blood splattered out, and I flashed in time to turn and return the way I came.
When I jumped off the fourth courtyard wall, the screams of the woman in terror pierced the night sky......
Early in the morning, the servant woke me up, and reported that the Taishi had sent someone to urge me to go to court.
When I came to the court, all the civil and military officials were talking about Fei Zhong's death, and I pretended not to know and joined the discussion.
Wen Taishi presided over the government, announced Fei Zhong's death, and ordered the Criminal Department to strictly investigate the matter, which seemed to be harsh and harsh, but in fact, it was not taken to heart.
That's it, Fei Zhong's matter is over.
As long as Su Da is not in power, he will not go to the Star Tower with the king to self-immolate, I will be happy to sit back and relax, and let it fall apart and change the dynasty.
King Su conquered Dongyi and returned to the court, and was furious when he learned of Fei Zhong's death, and he couldn't find the murderer so he had to give up.
After a while, there was a rebellion of the Su clan, and the king sent Wen Taishi to quell the rebellion, and I followed Wen Taishi's army to leave Chaoge.
