Forty-nine, the spark lights up the sky
Forty-nine, the spark lights up the sky
Since Ren Jinye had already taken the lead, he naturally did not want to let go of this good opportunity, so he stopped the rocket and switched to sulfur, which was caught in flames, which further increased the spread of the fire, and the city gate, which was the key target of attack, soon became precarious.
Nangong Luo saw fires in many places in the city, and a trace of ruthlessness crossed his dangerous eyes. The northwest is located inland, with little rain and drought, and if you don't get this rocket rain, everything that Nangong has will be ruined.
Thinking that Ren Jinye should just come to spy on the truth tonight, and should not take all the people with him, Nangong Luo ordered with a gloomy face, "Send 20,000 people to the city to fight the fire." ”
"Yes." The herald knew that the situation was critical, and after receiving the order, he quickly retreated, not daring to delay for a moment. Fortunately, the grain and grass are not within the range of the rocket attack, so there is no obstacle for the time being.
"Assault." Ren Jinye's royal horse was dressed in black and silver armor, which was particularly prominent among the thousands of troops and horses, and it was extremely eye-catching.
The troops approached the city of Jinzhou step by step, so that the soldiers defending the city couldn't help but feel fear in their hearts.
"Throwing stones." Nangong Luo's gaze became deeper, it was obvious that he had met an opponent in this battle, and Nangong Luo felt remorse for his previous light enemy.
You must know that even if the eldest brother Nangong Che personally led the troops, he might not be able to force Nangong to fall into such a predicament, but he didn't expect a small champion in the capital to have such a ability, which really impressed him.
Seeing that the garrison of the East City Gate was slightly weak, Ren Jinye's eyes did not move, and he ordered unhurriedly, "Hit the East Gate." ”
Xu Wei had not prepared well, and Nangong Luo was extremely embarrassed to deal with this battle, and was a little hurried by Ren Jinye's troops for a while.
Nangong, who saw Ren Jinye's intentions, immediately gave an order after Ren Jinye, "Guard the east gate." ”
Ren Jinye's attack at the east gate was blocked, Ren Jinye raised his eyes, "Break the whole into pieces and cut off the water veins of Jinzhou." ”
The people of Nangong Luo could only watch as Ren Jinye's people threw unknown powder into important water sources such as moats.
Nangong Luo smiled coldly, "Kyoto champion is nothing more than that." "Think that if the water source of Jinzhou is cut off, Jinzhou will be self-defeating? Hehe, he has already drilled a lot of wells in Jinzhou City, the well water and the river water are two water veins, and they do not interfere with each other, Nangong Luo thinks that Ren Jinye's move is undoubtedly doing useless work.
Seeing that Nangong Luo's army did not react, Qin Shu said suspiciously, "My lord, this move seems to be ......."
Ren Jinye raised his hand, "It's okay." I didn't expect the Golden State to be without other water sources. In this way, it is only to find out the real source of water in the Golden State. ”
Although this battle was a temptation, it was also extremely difficult. Nangong Luo studied under the top of Yunya, and he was by no means an ordinary person. Martial arts are excellent, and those who are idle are by no means his opponents.
Although Ren Jinye took the lead, this opportunity could not be maintained forever after all. After Nangong Luo reacted, there was no advantage at all.
The two sides were evenly matched, and the situation was stalemate for a while. But this kind of tug-of-war does not have the slightest benefit for Ren Jinye's side, and the longer the time elapses, the more unfavorable it is for Ren Jinye.
As soon as the day dawns, his army will be completely exposed under Nangong Luo's nose. At that time, it will only be the army sent by the southern minister who will suffer.
Ren Jinye took a deep look at the arrogant figure on the city wall, and also took out a bow and arrow aimed at Nangong Luo's shoulder, shooting three arrows in a row.
I already knew that when it came to martial arts, he Ren Jinye was not under Nangong. No matter how good Nangong Luo's skills are, it is impossible to avoid these three arrows that shoot directly at the vital point.
The three flying arrows were mixed with a fierce wind, which made Nangong Luo have to deal with it with all his might.
Nangong Luo flew sideways, his movements were smooth and clean, but he could only avoid two of them. There was still one left that was diagonally inserted into Nangong Luo, and blood was immediately pouring in.
Nangong Luo looked at the blood hole on his thigh, and smiled coldly, "It's really the way of others, and the body of others." ”
The furious Nangong waved his palm, pulled out the arrow and threw it aside. The adjutant general hurriedly sent a military physician to treat Nangong Luo's wounds.
"Mingjin retreats." Ren Jinye did not love to fight, and ordered his soldiers to retreat. The night raid can be over here, and it is useless to stay longer.
Seeing that Ren Jinye's army was receding like a tide, the deputy general was angry for a while, and wanted to lead someone to chase Ren Jinye's army, but Nangong Luo raised his hand to stop it, "No need to chase." The adjutant hesitated, "This ......"
"They'll come again, don't rush it." Nangong Luo was saying to the deputy general, and he was also saying it to himself. Wouldn't it be too boring to tell the winner or loser too early in chess.
As soon as Ren Jinye and the others returned to the camp military tent, Mo Yuzhu sat in the tent in cloth clothes and ordered someone to serve hot tea that had been prepared for a long time. Wen Run smiled, and handed over a cup of tea to Ren Jinye, "The adult is back." ”
Ren Jinye nodded, glanced at her before taking a sip of hot tea and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
"Yuzhu is waiting here for the return of the adults." The smile on Yuzhu's face did not change, "Although the fire attack tonight is wonderful, it is not a long-term strategy. Presumably, the people of Nangong will definitely take precautions tomorrow. ”
Ren Jinye said softly, "What do you think?" ”
Mo Yuzhu unfolded the map on Ren Jinye's table and approached Ren Jinye, "The drought in Jinzhou is good for fire attack, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve results with rocket attacks alone." ”
Ren Jinye was silent, just waiting for her next. Ren Jinye's silence couldn't help but make Mo Yuzhu a little nervous about his own methods.
"Your Excellency also wants to find the source of the Golden State's water, right?" Mo Yuzhu's eyes became bright as he spoke, attracting people to sink into it.
"If the water source is cut off, it is better to burn grain and grass." Mo Yuzhu boldly put forward his opinion, and seeing that Ren Jinye still did not react, Mo Yuzhu explained: "Instead of bothering to find water veins and cut off the lives of the people, it is better to cut off the backward road of Nangong." Without supplies, even if he has the heart to raise troops, he is powerless, once and for all, and will never suffer in the future. ”
Ren Jinye lowered her head and reminded her: "I'm afraid that the location of grain and grass will only be more difficult to find than the water veins." ”
The idea that Mo Yuzhu said, Ren Jinye had not thought about it before, and after weighing the grain and grass and the water vein, he made a more favorable choice and cut off the water vein.
"Why don't we make a bet?" Mo Yuzhu turned his head to look at him, his face full of vitality and vitality was full of spirit, and his eyebrows were flying.
"Bet on what." Ren Jinye looked at the map intently and asked casually. It was clear that he wasn't very concerned about the gamble.
"Whoever cuts the lifeblood of the Golden State first and takes the Golden State." Mo Yuzhu's confident attitude made others have some expectations for this battle situation.
Ren Jinye raised his head and looked at her when he heard this, and the cold lip line slightly pursed under the light of the light became soft. "You're going to Golden State City?" It was clearly a question, but Ren Jinye used an affirmative tone.
Mo Yuzhu nodded with a little embarrassment of being told a word, "Hmm." Seeing Ren Jinye frowning slightly, Mo Yuzhu hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'm a woman, they won't be suspicious of me." ”
Ren Jinye still frowned, "It's too dangerous for you to go alone." ”
Mo Yuzhu's ears turned red, and then her dark eyes looked straight over, "Then, are you willing to go with Wanli and protect Wanli?" ”
Ren Jinye was stunned when she heard this, and she didn't seem to have thought that she would say so. The smile on Mo Yuzhu's face became a little frozen with Ren Jinye's silence.
Just when she regretted what she said on the spur of the moment, she heard Ren Jinye answer in a low voice, "It's okay." I'll go with you. ”
The smile on Wanli's face spread uncontrollably, and she stood up, "In that case, Yuzhu will go down and prepare first." ”
"Hmm." Ren Jin bowed his head at night, but did not get up, "Have a good rest tonight, and we will enter the city early tomorrow morning." ”
"Okay." Wan Li Yingying smiled.
The night was in a hurry, Ren Jin had no intention of sleeping peacefully, and patrolled around the camp with Qin Shu. Most of the soldiers had already fallen asleep, and the sound of night cicadas was mixed with the cries of the warriors. For some reason, listening to this sound makes it easy to feel at ease.
"Tomorrow, Wanli and I will enter Jinzhou City through that path, and you can arrange it in the camp on the day I am away. If there is any situation over there in Nangongluo, don't act rashly, everything will be decided when I come back. ”
"Yes, sir." Qin Shu knew the severity, "It's just that Qin Shu doesn't understand that the big war is coming, so why should adults risk their lives." ”
Ren Jin stood in the wind at night, "Only by knowing each other and knowing oneself can one not be defeated in a hundred battles." After a pause, "My visit is not only a risk, but also an opportunity." We really should go to the Golden State and have a look. ”
Qin Shu had a gossipy heart, and he couldn't open his mouth several times to ask about Princess Changning and Wanli. Finally, he couldn't hold back his curiosity, "Master," as soon as he opened his mouth, Qin Shu regretted it a little.
"Hmm." Ren Jinye was in front of him, and when he heard Qin Shu's voice, he looked back. "What?"
Qin Shu pondered for a moment and asked tactfully, "Why does the master care so much about that Mo Wanli?" "Isn't it Princess Changning that you like? Qin Shu was almost about to blurt out the second half of the sentence, but fortunately he stopped it in time.
Ren Jinye frowned and asked puzzledly, "When did I care about her?" In his impression, he could only be regarded as a little friendlier to Mo Wanli than other women, and he didn't care about it.
Seeing this, Qin Shu had to ask him in a different way, "What would happen if it wasn't Miss Mo who came dressed as a man, but Miss Nangong?" ”
Hearing this, Ren Jinye's gaze swept over coldly, "I won't give her a chance to come to the battlefield." The tone is unmistakably firm.
Qin Shu was puzzled, scratched his head and asked, "Why?" Miss Nangong's intelligence is not necessarily inferior to Miss Mo. ”
Ren Jinye's eyes fell on the fire not far away, and his eyes became gentle. "Because I will never allow myself to put her at risk."
As soon as these words came out, how could Qin Shu not understand. For Miss Mo, Ren Jinye attaches some importance to her, but this has nothing to do with Fengyue. Ren Jinye will worry about Mo Wanli's safety, but she will never put her life above all else.
It's different for Nangong girl, Ren Jinye puts her in his heart, so as not to surprise her, avoid disturbing her, and collect her properly. He didn't want her to be hurt in the slightest. Comparing the two, the importance of the two is immediate.
"It's just that with the talent of the Nangong girl, she has hidden it behind her life, and maybe it will only make the pearl dust." Qin Shu said what was in his heart.
Ren Jinye shook her head, "Yiyou, she is too delicate, any bit of wind and rain may be fatal to her, I don't need her to face the wind and rain with me, that's not what she should do." I just want her to be safe at home and wait for me to come back. ”
The two stopped talking for a long time, letting the night breeze blow the corners of their clothes, "It's late at night, let's go back." Qin Shu proposed.
