Chapter Seventy-Two: Only Success or Failure (Part II)
Don't blame the enemy's tricks for the damage, do everything, on this battlefield, there is no good or evil, only success or failure is the hero.
On the city wall, Gu Cang, like the other soldiers of the Liang Kingdom, were holding the battlements, looking at the situation below, their faces were as gloomy as the dark clouds overhead, which made the people next to them daunted.
Wanyan Keni, together with a group of guards, stood behind him with a knife, silently protecting Gu Cang's safety, neither wasting time to look at the situation below, nor making any suggestions, obviously waiting for the prince to make up his own mind.
"Help!"
"Help!"
"Help us!"
"Help!"
"Open the door!"
"Open the door!"
"Open the door!"
"Help!"
The towering city wall in front of them fell in the eyes of these poor people whose spirits and spirits had been wiped out, which was tantamount to the last bit of hope, as long as they entered, it would be safe, it was precisely because of this kind of unrealistic idea that they didn't need to be coerced by the enemy behind, and many people tried hard to support their last bit of strength and run forward.
Seeing that these people below are getting closer and closer, the patriotic soldiers who swept in behind them have been pressing step by step, but the defenders on the city wall here have not made a corresponding response.
At this moment, Gu Cang, who had a gloomy face, supported the battlements on both sides, suddenly poked his head out, puffed up his breath and shouted downward: "If the people below dare to take a step forward, they will be killed!"
With him, the prince of Daliang, taking the lead, the defenders on the city wall who had been looking down in a daze also woke up, and shouted down together, and the voices of tens of thousands of people echoed on the battlefield to ensure that the people below could hear, and some of the clever soldiers also took advantage of the situation to pick up the longbow in their hands, put on the arrow, and aimed at the lower as a deterrent.
Seeing this situation, the people who were advancing below had no choice but to quickly stop and beg for mercy.
"Don't kill us!"
"Don't let go of the arrows!"
"Please, don't kill me!"
"I'm from Liangguo, why don't you save us?"
"We are all from Liangguo! Don't let go of the arrows! Help! Help!"
"Don't shoot arrows, don't shoot arrows!"
What can these captured Yanzhou people do, why don't they know what their situation is, the patriots take their lives as a threat, making them a knife that is stabbing at their own people, but they have a choice, after all, if there is a chance to survive, who doesn't want to seize that opportunity?
Among them, some people hate the sinister intentions of the patriots in the back, and some people hate their own people in front of them for not saving them when they see death, and even want to shoot them in turn, but at this moment, they are unarmed and caught between the two sides, and they have long lost the right to be free to control their own destiny.
"Hurry up, if you don't go, you'll die!"
When the three parties were at a stalemate with each other, suddenly, a thousand household chiefs on Weiguo's side rushed forward with a direct step, pulled out the saber at his waist, and then with a wave of his hand, he cut down one who was in place
The Yanzhou prisoner, who was waiting silently, heard a scream, and the latter fell directly and simply in a pool of blood and never got up again.
The same thing happened not only here, but a series of explosions like firecrackers were set off on this long offensive line, and the crowd, which had been stagnant by the threat of the defenders on the city walls, could only move forward again.
No matter how reluctant they are, but they can't help it, followed by the enemies who share the sky, the enemy soldiers, and it is ruthless to kill them, but the good ones on the city wall in front are their own people, and they can't say that it's actually just to scare them, it may not be what it will be, even if they really do it, they will have scruples, and everyone understands the truth of the lesser of these two evils, so they can only continue to run forward.
"Stop!"
"Stop!"
"Stop!"
"Stop!"
Seeing this, the soldiers above the city wall were a little at a loss for a while, because they didn't get orders from above, and they didn't dare to mess around in this complicated situation, so they could only shout "stop" at the top of their voices as much as possible, hoping that they wouldn't rush forward and make it difficult for this side.
Gu Cang looked at the crowd that continued to approach below, his face was cloudy and uncertain, his brows furrowed deeply for a while, and then stretched out again, suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he gritted his teeth, turned his head and shouted at Wanyan Keni: "Kill! Must be killed! All the consequences are borne by me, Gu Cang!"
Wan Yan Keni's whole spirit was also lifted, and he quickly turned his head at the moment, and ordered the guards behind him with a straight face: "Did you hear it? The prince said to kill! Hurry up and send the order to the others! Quickly!"
Suddenly, he saw a pro-soldier with a big appearance and three thick appearances crying directly, looking at the back of Gu Cang who turned his head again just after giving an order, and then at Wanyan Keni who looked majestic in front of him, and couldn't help but mourn: "General, prince!
The pro-soldiers around Wanyan Keni must all be from Xiong Zhenjun, that is, Yanzhou people in the traditional sense, so he looked down without paying attention before, not to mention that he recognized any acquaintances, but he still recognized them at a glance very easily, and now let them kill these Yanzhou compatriots who are already poor enough, how can it be possible, after all, the reason why these people have fallen to this point, do they Xiong Zhenjun also have to bear some responsibility?
"Are you fucking crazy?"
Seeing that there were pro-soldiers who resisted his order, Wanyan Keni couldn't help but wave his bear paw and slap it down, almost fainting the young man in front of him with tears on his face.
"Whatever the prince says, it's what it is! Do you understand? Could it be that your kid wants to disobey?"
As soon as the words fell, this group of soldiers who had been by his side for many years, who could be described as loyal and undouble-minded, knelt down more than a dozen in a row at once, all raised their heads with their eyes, looked at Wanyan Keni with an angry face on his face, and begged together: "General! You can't kill it! General! That's all our own people! Can't you kill it!"
"it!"
Wanyan Keni saw that these bold boys actually knelt down and stopped in front of him together, quite a bit of a palace, and suddenly became even more angry, and the tiger's eyes widened, and he pulled out of his waist at once
The scimitar roared: "At the moment of the great enemy, whoever dares to disobey the order will be killed! You are so fucking fat? You dare not even obey Lao Tzu's orders?"
With that, he waved his hand and directly put the scimitar in his hand, which can be called a hair-blowing and broken hair, on the neck of the person who hit the head, and the latter even though blood was oozing from his neck, he still looked at him, his expression was full of pleading, kneeling on the ground, not moving at all.
Wanyan Keni was furious, and was about to make an example of killing chickens and monkeys directly, but unexpectedly, Gu Cang behind him suddenly turned around, and then firmly grabbed his hand holding the knife, and then scolded the soldiers who knelt on the ground in front of him: "Confused! Is it just to save this person below, do you want to make the entire Liang Country and countless people suffer?" As long as we win this battle, we will be able to regain the lost territory, and we will be able to help you get back your own homeland, and once we lose, these people below will also die, and the patriots will neither let us go nor let them go! At that time, we will no longer have a chance to take revenge, think about the hundreds of thousands of comrades who died in Yanzhou before, shouldn't we avenge them?"
His words were fast and urgent, deafening, and the soldiers who were kneeling in front of him and asking for their lives were speechless, gritted their teeth and thought seriously for a few breaths, and suddenly someone stood up from the ground, and then turned his hand and took down the longbow he was carrying from behind him, walked quickly to the gap in the middle of the battlement, and directly twisted an arrow from the quiver next to him, put it on the string, and shot it directly down.
"Whew!"
"Ahh
I could only hear the sound of strings above, but for a while, the next moment, a faint scream came from below.
With this person taking the lead, plus the other soldiers are not stubborn people, after all, they are soldiers, which is more important, of course they can carry it clearly, just now it was just because the matter fell on their own family, they panicked all of a sudden, and after being scolded by Gu Cang and woke up, they still quickly entered the state.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The orders of Gu Cang and Wanyan Keni were quickly conveyed by the banner soldiers by shaking the order flag, and the defenders of the Liang Kingdom who had been stunned for a long time on the entire defense line began to attack the approaching crowd below one after another.
Xie Houyin stood on the high platform in the distance, looking at all this, just sneering silently, not caring at all, because all the enemy's reactions were actually still in his expectations.
It is said that mercy is not in charge of the army, righteousness is not in charge of wealth, how many generals can be soft-hearted and indecisive, in this critical situation, the first war is related to the fortune of the country, no matter who commands it, it is impossible to let these seemingly harmless captives come over, plus their own army has been following behind these captives and gradually approaching, and as the distance closes, they are already attacking, so it is even more impossible for the other party not to counterattack.
Therefore, these captives are actually simply meat shields, which can block arrows, make sandbags, and disturb the mentality of the Liangguo soldiers who are defending the city above, which is enough.
And because of such a little hesitation among the enemy, they had come to the place where they had retreated almost without much effort, and without any additional losses.
