Chapter 9: Charging (1)
Xiong Zhuangzhuang scolded angrily: "Beasts, beasts, pigs and dogs are not as good! Lao Tzu slaughtered these scum!"
Gong Luoluo said: "I don't know how this baby survived, it's a miracle. ”
There were seven corpses in the house, judging by their clothing and appearance, they were two elderly couples, two young couples, an old servant, a maid, and a child over nine years old.
The child's neck was broken, his head was in a different place, and the old servant was covered in knife wounds and was bleeding profusely.
The worst thing is that the young and old generations of male owners were completely dismembered, and their intestines and internal organs were sprinkled all over the ground.
Compared with the naked bodies of the maid and the young hostess, the lower body was purple and swollen, and she was killed by **, and the old lady hit the stone beam, her brain burst, and she died very simply.
In the middle of the pool of bones and blood, a baby less than a year old was trying to suck the young hostess's breast, and after a few sucks, it still did not quench her hunger and thirst, so she raised her head, her little hand pushed and scratched, and her milk voice was muffled and called to her mother.
But since the woman is dead, there must be no milk, and it is impossible to hear his call again.
The child's mouth, face, and body were covered with blood, and there was blood mixed with his own excrement.
From where he was sitting, there was a clear trail of blood crawling, pointing to a wooden cupboard in the back wing.
It can be speculated that the child was hidden by his family to sleep in a wooden cupboard and survived. When he woke up, he was hungry, and by instinct, crawled out to find his mother.
The smell in the house is unpleasant, flies are flying around, Yun Tianjia is a human being in two lives, and he has experienced a lot of bloody scenes, and his stomach is still tumbling and uncomfortable at this time.
He took a few steps forward, stripped the child of his filthy clothes, wiped the blood slightly, and then took off his robe, wrapped the child, and held it in his hands.
Luo Erniang hurriedly stepped forward to help, hugged the child with one hand, took out a water bladder with the other, and fed him water.
Yun Tianjia said: "This child's family died tragically, and he was helpless, so we can only adopt him temporarily." ”
Luo Erniang said pityingly: "I don't know what his name is, and he doesn't have any tokens on him." ”
Yun Tianjia groaned: "Just let him follow your surname and call him Luo Yi." This is the first orphan we adopted on behalf of the imperial court, but certainly not the last. If there are any adopted orphans in the future, they will be called Luo 2, Luo 3, and Luo 4 in order. "Thinking of the lively children, who can only be named by numbers from now on, I can't help but feel sorry in my heart.
The four of them took the children and returned to the official road.
Yun Tianjia and his eleven horsemen had already alarmed the patrol posts in the city, and there were originally just a few people standing in a sparse manner, but in this moment's effort, more than 100 heads were poked out, looking forward to the movement outside the city.
However, they obviously did not pay special attention to the arrival of Yun Tianjia and his party, the city gate was still open, and dozens of people outside the city dragged the corpses without saying a word, collected them together, and prepared to load them.
Xiong Zhuangzhuang waved his axe with one hand and said: "Those people are wearing variegated clothes, not our official army, and there is no flag at the head of the city, obviously Hanyuan County has been broken by thieves." We took advantage of the fact that they did not close the city gates, rushed in one fell swoop, and killed him!"
Yun Tianjia calmed down at this time and said, "The city has been occupied by thieves, and the situation inside is unknown. This rush into it may be a bloody battle. We are sleepy and tired, and it is difficult to support us for a long time, and if we don't get it right, we will become meat buns and dogs, and there is no return. Therefore, we should retreat as advance, avoid the edge for the time being, find a place to rest for an hour or two, store up enough energy, and wait for the city to relax its vigilance, and then launch an attack in one fell swoop!"
Gong Luoluo said: "Since the city has been lost, what is the point of forcibly attacking the city? Not to mention that we only have eleven people, what storm can we set off when we attack the city?
Xiong Zhuangzhuang said in a deep voice: "Could it be that we are here, watching thieves do evil in the city?"
Yun Tianjia said: "The smoke and dust in the city are flying, implying the atmosphere of killing, and there must be officers and soldiers in the formation of self-defense, waiting for reinforcements." Now that we're here, we can't sit idly by anyway. Besides, even if the official army is completely lost, we need to go in to see what is going on and lay the foundation for the subsequent recovery. However, in and out, the casualties are unpredictable, so you must be cautious and not reckless. ”
Xiong Zhuangzhuang bared his teeth at the head of the city, turned the horse's head, and retreated one after another.
The people retreated to a big tree, and the people drank and fed the horses, and breathed and nourished.
Yun Tianjia jumped to the tree to stand on guard, and after more than an hour, he suddenly said: "Everyone clean up and attack the city with me!"
Everyone stood up with a hula, drew their weapons, and stepped on horseback.
Xiong Zhuangzhuang and Gong Luoluo are not on the battlefield for the first time, and there is no nervousness or fear at all. In turn, there was even a faint bloodthirsty excitement in my heart.
Whether it is said that the artist is bold, or that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, in their minds, war is to kill people, but it is someone else who kills. As for whether they themselves will die, it was never thought about.
Zhang Changjian, Zhang Changyu, and Hong Liang can be regarded as battle-hardened, but they are not as calm as Xiong Zhuangzhuang and Gong Luoluo, after all, there are no eyes for knives and guns, and every time they survive from the battlefield, it can be said that three points depend on strength, and seven points depend on luck.
Especially in a tough battle like this siege, it is even more unpredictable.
Of course, since they are soldiers, since they have gone to the battlefield, they are also desperately prepared.
Luo Erniang made a simple strap out of cloth strips and tied Luo Yi, who was full of food and drink and slept soundly, behind her back.
The horses had eaten enough forage, had more than two hours of rest, regained some strength, and were still more excited than the human beings.
Among the eleven people, only Luo Erniang's four entourages Ge Zheng, Ge Yi, Sheng Jiong, and Ding Shuo looked a little awkward.
Dry throat.
Sweat oozing from the palms.
The face is tense.
Although they were all already second-order soul masters, the battlefield was still a new thing for them.
It is everyone's nature to be afraid of the unknown. Even soul masters are no exception.
Yun Tianjia lined up eleven people.
Xiong Zhuangzhuang and Gong Luoluo were the first to open the way, and he answered behind them. In the middle is Luo Erniang and four entourages, Zhang Changjian, Zhang Changyu, and Hong Liang are behind.
Eleven people turned into the official road, controlled the horse and slowed down more than 100 steps, and when they were more than 500 meters away from the city wall, they began to accelerate.
The horses' hooves hit the ground tightly and rhythmically, making a rumbling sound like a heavy drum.
Although there were only eleven horses, they actually ran out of thousands of horses.
The 100 and 10 people who were resting at the mouth of the city wall to clean up the corpses scattered like frightened birds.
The bandit leader on the city wall shouted loudly: "Close the city gate, close the city gate!"
For a while, arrows flew like rain overhead, and the city gate was slowly closed with the combined efforts of more than 20 pawns, leaving only a gap.
Yun Tianjia released the Tianjia clone, protecting all nine people except Xiong Zhuangzhuang and Gong Luoluo.
Although the feather arrow is sharp, it is not half a threat to Xiong Zhuangzhuang and Gong Luoluo.
Xiong Zhuang Zhuang is an earth attribute, and after being petrified, he will not be hurt by a knife on his skin.
Gong Luoluo's Wind Pillar Technique was successfully cultivated, and ordinary attacks couldn't get close to her at all. She unleashed the "Wind Blade Meteor Shower" in a hurry, and the city head suddenly wailed, and with a raise of her hand, she killed more than a dozen city defenders.
Zhang Changjian and Zhang Changyu's brothers Zhang Gong and arrows sniped the bandit leader.
The bandit leader was also very good, and he actually dodged several arrows in a row, jumped to his feet and shouted: "Move stones!
The horse is like flying, and 500 meters is coming in an instant.
The Zhang brothers fired arrows in a row, aiming at the last snipe of the bandit leader.
The bandit leader looked at the two feathered arrows that pierced through his chest in disbelief, and fell headlong.
Xiong Zhuang held the fishtail Xuanhua giant axe high, and shouted: "Death to those who stand in my way!" After three zhang away, an axe was swung down, and the fierce wind blew in from the gap of only half an inch, splitting the three pawns who were pushing the door into six pieces, and at the same time, the city gate more than two feet thick was also forced open half a meter.
Xiong Zhuangzhuang struck left and right, and when he cut open the city gate, most of the pawns at the gate were killed and wounded. Don't say that if you are cut off by an axe, even if it is against a little wind, you will have to lose a piece of meat.
