Chapter 234: The Beacon
The disgusting dung poured down from the city wall, and the soldiers who were trying to climb the city wall with their heads bowed raised their heads, and the foul smell of dung spilled on their faces. The nostrils, eyes, and mouth are all over the place. The soldiers were caught off guard, slipped and fell off the ladder. There are countless disabilities.
Seeing this, the soldiers of the daughter country on the city tower showed a smile that had rarely been seen for many days on their hungry and bumpy faces. "General, look, the lethality of this dung is no worse than that of Jian Yu." A soldier saw the scene under the city and said happily.
Zhu Xiaoqin looked at the city, and there was no joy on her face. The dung can only be managed for a while, and it will soon be exhausted, and at that time, they can really only be caught, and the only thing they can do at this moment is to pray for the empress to come soon.
........
"At this time, the soldiers of Zaiguo should be attacking Ruyang City, Hou Dong, you lead 10,000 elite soldiers to capture Siyang City. As long as Siyang is attacked, those soldiers who remain in Siyang to defend the city will definitely light the beacon and ask for help! , I hid in the mountains with the rest of the men. Here are waiting for the military horses carrying the country. Ye Qingqiu raised his head and looked around carefully, and said with a smile on his face. The terrain of this place is dangerous, and it can be described as a precipitous terrain in Li Baishu's difficult road.
"What if they don't light the beacon?" Hou Dong asked.
Ye Qingqiu sneered, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a cold and cruel smile, "If they don't order, you can help them order it." The main purpose of your visit is to light the beacon tower and lure the soldiers back to Siyang City. ”
A little bit of the beacon, even if General Zaiguo doubts it, they will rush back. Because, if you guess correctly, the grain and grass of Zaiguo are also in Siyang City. As long as Siyang City is taken, it is equivalent to recapturing two cities.
"Okay, then boss, you have to be careful!" Hou Dong explained, and led 10,000 horses to Siyang City. As long as it is Ye Qingqiu said, whether it is right or wrong, he Hou Dong will do it.
Ye Qingqiu climbed halfway up the mountainside and saw the current situation of Ruyang City in his eyes, Ye Qingqiu looked at the city tower in the distance with a faint look, and secretly prayed in his heart, "General Zhenguo, hold on for a while." Be sure to hold on! "I won't let you down, hold on!
"Ning Yue hurriedly ordered to go down, and let the people he appointed hurry up the mountain to cut down some big trees, as well as move some stones, and keep them for the country to use when the soldiers come."
On the way here, Ye Qingqiu had already given Ning Yue and Hou Dong military ranks, and those soldiers also saw the strength of Ning Yue and Hou Dong, so they did not object. In their opinion, Ning Yue and Hou Dong are here to help them, so what qualifications do they have to pick and choose others?
Ye Qingqiu was collecting wood and stones for attack, and here Hou Dong led 10,000 elite soldiers to the downstairs of Siyang City, and he didn't talk nonsense, and attacked the city directly.
The soldiers guarding the city upstairs saw the black and oppressive people downstairs, and their hearts were terrified, and everyone's faces changed.
You must know that in order to break through Ruyang City today, the general took away all the soldiers in the city, and the total number of soldiers defending the city at this moment is less than 5,000.
And the people under the city are black and oppressive, and at a glance, there must be at least 10,000 horses, and they are all elite soldiers.
"Hurry up the beacon!" I don't know who shouted upstairs, and everyone came back to their senses.
"Yes, light the beacon!" A soldier ran to the beacon in a panic, and as long as the general saw it, he would definitely rush back.
Hou Dong led 10,000 elite soldiers to attack the city under the city, and when he heard someone upstairs say that he would light a beacon tower, Hou Dong showed a happy smile on his face, sat on horseback, and made a big move, "Siege the city!" ”
At the sound of the order, all the soldiers swarmed up.
Ruyang City
The dung has all been used up, and in the face of those soldiers who are besieging the city, General Zhensoul looks helpless.
It seems that the heavens are going to destroy my daughter's country!
As long as the soldiers climb the tower and open the city gate, the daughter country will be within reach.
Seeing that the city gate was about to be broken, when General Zaiguo was complacent, a soldier rode a horse and ran, "The general is not good, the beacon tower of Siyang City is lit!" ”
"How is that possible!" General Zaiguo looked sideways, and sure enough, there were thick yellow fireworks floating above Siyang City in the distance.
General Zaiguo's face changed suddenly, and his face was gloomy and frightening. Yellow smoke is an emergency. Could it be that the new empress of the daughter country has arrived? Damn, didn't the spy say that the empress of the daughter country would have ten days to arrive?
It was because of this that he had the audacity to lead so many soldiers to attack Ruyang City!
"What should the general do now? If Siyang City is breached, our army will be completely defeated! The soldier said anxiously.
Siyang City is full of their grain and grass! Once breached, there will be no day to turn over.
"Collect the troops and rush back to Siyang City!" General Zaiguo also knew the seriousness of the matter, and said coldly with a calm face. As he spoke, he took the reins in his hand, dropped his horse's head, and rushed to Siyang City.
The soldiers hurriedly blew the horn of the troops, and then rode and whipped to chase the general.
On the city tower, when they heard the horn of the daughter country's collection of troops, everyone looked confused, and then showed a happy smile.
Jaeguo suddenly withdrew his troops, it must have been the empress who attacked Siyang City.
"The Empress is here! The Empress is here! ”
"Long live the Empress!" There was cheering from the castle tower. General Zhenguo also had a rare smile of joy on his face, and tears flashed in his cloudy eyes, which was the best news she had heard in months.
Ruyang City finally held on, and the tense nerves were suddenly relaxed, Zhu Xiaoqin only felt that it was dark in front of her, and she only heard someone shouting, "General." Then he fell unconscious.
Zhu Xiaoqin blamed herself too much because she lost two cities, and she was hungry because she saved food for others to eat. So I fainted for a while. Everyone hurriedly carried her down the city tower and called the imperial doctor.
Here, Ye Qingqiu hurriedly asked the soldiers to hide so as not to be discovered.
Siyang City, Hou Dong with 10,000 elite soldiers is trying his best to attack the city, although the boss said that as long as the soldiers of Zaiguo light the beacon, but he wants to take this opportunity to capture Siyang City.
He had just observed that there would be no more than 10,000 soldiers on the city tower, and since General Zaiguo wanted to break through Ruyang City, he would definitely take away the elite soldiers, and the ones who stayed to guard the city gate must be the infantry.
"Everyone is working hard, as long as you go up to the city tower, Siyang City will be taken back!" Hou Dong looked at the soldiers who were climbing the city and shouted, "Don't be afraid, the soldiers of Zaiguo have all gone to attack Ruyang City, and there are not many soldiers on the city tower!" ”
Hearing Hou Dong's words, a group of female soldiers from the daughter country, all of them kept climbing up the city tower as if they had taken stimulants, one fell down and the other went up.
In this way, the soldiers of the daughter country soon climbed up the city tower one after another, and the two sides of the city tower fought together, and a thin and short soldier flexibly avoided the soldiers from the siege of the country, and successfully went down the city tower and opened the Siyang city gate.
Hou Dong was overjoyed when he saw this, and with a move with his left hand, he shouted loudly, "Kill!" Then he rushed into Siyang City. The soldiers behind him followed suit.
Here, when General Zaiguo led a group of soldiers to Siyang, suddenly the shouts on the mountain were loud, and a group of people suddenly appeared on the mountainside, and the intersection in front of them was suddenly blocked by wood, and they couldn't pass.
General Zaiguo's face changed suddenly, "Oh no, I'm fooled!" "Even if they realize that they have been fooled at this moment, it is too late, they have already arrived in the trap arranged by Ye Qingqiu, and it is impossible to retreat and escape now, because the roads in front and behind have been blocked.
At this moment, there is only one battle to have a chance to live! General Zaiguo pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted, "Soldiers, rush with me!" Before the soldiers could respond to their general's words, stones and logs were falling from the mountainside. The soldiers were shocked and ran away. I don't know when I lost the weapon in my hand.
"Don't panic about the grand prize, pay attention to the formation!" General Zaiguo stood and said comfortably. But at the moment, those soldiers simply did not have the heart to listen to him.
Now they only think about how to avoid the stone and wood. The place where they were besieged was so small that there was simply no place to hide.
Soon, more than half of the soldiers were killed and wounded, and the general was also painted. When the wood and stones were exhausted, Ye Qingqiu stood on the mountainside, looking at the scene under the mountain with cold eyes, and waved his right hand lightly, "Kill!" ”
The female soldiers of the daughter country rushed down from the mountainside, shouting and killing into the sky, and the general Zaiguo's face was like earth, and his heart was like ashes. Defeated, everything is lost, there is no chance to rise again.
Ye Qingqiu rushed down first, holding the long sword in his hand, his wrist flipped, and the long sword swept. Almost all of the soldiers who wanted to stop Ye Qingqiu's horse had died under her sword.
After finishing off the soldiers, Ye Qingqiu raised his head to look for General Zaiguo around, but found that Ning Yue was fighting with General Zaiguo, Ye Qingqiu watched the fight between the two of them, and Ye Qingqiu saw that the general's martial arts were slightly inferior to Ning Yuelai.
Even with such martial arts, he dares to provoke his daughter's country, which is simply a dog going to the toilet - looking for death!
With Ning Yue dealing with General Zaiguo, Ye Qingqiu was relieved to continue to fight and kill other soldiers in Zaiguo.
"Everyone, rush, kill!"
"Kill, kill this group of bandits!"
"Kill, kill, kill!" The crowd echoed.
The momentum of the soldiers of the daughter country increased a lot in an instant, and as the momentum of the soldiers increased, the soldiers of the country were soon wiped out.
It wasn't until he was caught and the big knife was put on his neck that at this moment, General Zaiguo was willing to admit that he was defeated and gave it to a woman for nothing.
General Zai Guo couldn't accept it for a while. Losing to a woman, which made him feel extremely ashamed, General Zaiguo held his head high,
With a look of disdain, Ye Qingqiu sat on horseback and looked condescendingly at the soldiers who were kneeling on the ground. A cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It's quite strong, I hope there will be such arrogance in a while!" ”
