The glow-in-the-dark glass of wine, if you want to drink the pipa, you will urge immediately. Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times. This is a poem widely circulated in the northern territory of the human race, which is said to have been written by a scholar who had read the book, and it is a dying quatrain. It seems simple, but it is a poem that writes about the cruelty of war.

The same situation is true of Xinji City today, with black clouds outside the city walls, although General Ma has stepped up preparations as much as he can, it is still far from enough to support this upcoming war.

Outside the city wall, the wind carried by tens of thousands of war horses roaring was like a sharp blade on General Ma's cheek, General Ma forcibly stiffened his body without looking back, and said in a deep voice: "Is there no movement over there in the City Lord's Mansion?" ”

This sentence was asked by Lin Shaohua.

The adjutant general behind him looked at the City Lord's Mansion with a melancholy face and did not answer.

General Ma did not continue to speak, and several lieutenants, including him, once again overflowed with a chilling loss in their hearts.

Finally, an adjutant general cautiously asked, "Is this battle still fought?" ”

The sound was very small, for fear of being heard by the busy figures around him. It is also very large, but in the hearts of General Ma and several lieutenant generals, it is like a heavenly bell, deafening. Of course, we also know that this sentence is asked by the high-ranking city lord, not by Ma Yongning!

Finally, Ma Yongning's heart sank, and his eyes turned to look at the tallest and largest palace in the middle of the city.

"Wang Dong, Zhang Hu, you two will defend the city wall, and the rest will die with me to admonish the city lord." The voice is not loud, but it is extraordinarily firm.

The lieutenants standing in front of Ma Yongning bowed their hands in unison, and only replied with two words: "Obey!" ”。

The place where the general gathered, it was all the attention, and now that the war is imminent, the soldiers and soldiers who carry the military to and from the soldiers, they can't help but take a look at this side, people are different after all, if you want to condense thousands of individuals into a rope, you must have the spirit to carry it, and this is the military heart, and everyone expects it to be the same.

Before leaving, Ma Yongning tilted his head and said coldly: "If there is a thief soldier who steps on the city wall, you two will come to see you!" ”

Without waiting for Wang Dong and Zhang Hu to answer, they heard all the soldiers on the city wall say in unison: "Obey!" ”

Ma Yongning tilted his head slightly and closed his eyes, and said to himself: "This is what the general said about the military heart!" ”

In the city lord's palace, the atmosphere is also cold to the extreme, the city lord Huang Zhonghe isolates the inside and outside of the palace with a gas machine, forming an enchantment that can barely be called a barrier, and the sound is isolated from the sound of the air machine.

"General Ma!"

"General Ma."

"Can the city hold on? General Ma? ”

Everyone was voicing their concerns, and the myriad voices converged, making it even more noisy.

Ma Yongning was close to the City Lord's Mansion, and the crowds on the street became more and more numerous, and finally converged into a black and oppressive area, blocking the way, and Ma Yongning, who was originally trotting on a horse, had to move forward slowly.

"General Ma!" Can this city be defended?

The four lieutenant generals behind Ma Yongning looked at the general without words, and with their appearance, the people on the street were also crowding over in a steady stream, and the originally wide street was afraid that it would be difficult to move half a step, and the catchers on the edge of the street also put on a helpless and worried look.

The four lieutenants didn't know who was the first to speak: "Of course, keep it." ”

"Just rest assured."

Although the voices of the four were loud, their voices were quickly drowned out by the noisy crowd.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Listen to me! Ma Yongning suddenly shouted loudly.

Soon the noise fell silent, and everyone looked up at the general who was riding high on horseback, and their eyes were full of longing, eager to hear that sentence, to be able to hold on, and everyone to be at home in peace.

But Ma Yongning's next words directly lost hope for everyone.

"I can't hold Xinji City!" Ma Yongning said quietly, it is true that a person who has never been on the battlefield has gone to face tens of thousands of enemies, not to mention others, Ma Yongning himself does not believe it.

is always worried about the lack of highness, and is full of worries, Ma Yongning still knows this sentence.

But the words have been spoken, and the people who are crowded on the street are like falling into an ice cave in an instant, crying and roaring, endlessly, and even some women cry directly on the spot, and even more crazy rushed forward directly, facing the legs of Ma Yongning and the four lieutenant generals is a burst of angry hammers.

Rao is Ma Yongning was also a little surprised, and he could only grit his teeth and shout, "But ......"

Only this time, no one would calm down and listen to him.

"But General Lin can!"

For a moment, everyone was silent again, yes, General Lin can, but General Lin that.

Someone asked if anyone had seen General Lin, and the people around him shook their heads silently.

"General Lin is in the City Lord's Mansion." A sentence suddenly sounded.

Everyone looked around, trying to find the person who was speaking, and to make sure that it was true.

Ma Yongning was already riding on a horse, and he naturally looked taller than others, and he instantly locked on a man wearing a brocade servant's robe.

Several lieutenant generals followed Ma Yongning's gaze, and also found the servant, and couldn't help but wonder: "This is?" ”

Ma Yongning leaned back slightly, and whispered, "People from the City Lord's Mansion." ”

In fact, it is not difficult to recognize, Xinji City is a small border city, not to mention poverty, it is definitely not rich, like this kind of miscellaneous servants, and the only one who can wear a brocade brown robe is the city lord's mansion.

Although Xuanren Prefecture has not been in war for more than 3,000 years, it is still a fool's dream to plant mulberry and silkworms on this land infected by countless corpses and bones, so not only Xinji City, but also the brocade cloth in the central and northern part of Xuanren Prefecture still relies on transportation, and the brocade cloth of one or two gold and one or two brocade is just a standard slave uniform in the City Lord's Mansion, and the extravagance of the City Lord's Mansion can be seen.

"Generalist, that's what the generalist kid said."

A small road is already crowded with people, if everyone shouts, trying to find the owner of a word, it is indeed tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, but in silence, wanting to deny what he once said is also a fool's dream.

Ma Yongning naturally knew Lin Shaohua's movements, but to his surprise, it was a person from the City Lord's Mansion who said this.

"Generalist, you doglegs, it's all up to this point, and you still have fun with your grandfathers."

The generalist, who was sturdy and handsome, but had a servile flattery everywhere, was kicked to the ground.

"Oops, I've got a leg."

The generalist fell to the ground, his clothes fluttering, and touched the leg of a stout man next to him, who first hugged his leg and screamed, and then scolded and kicked at the generalist.

In fact, this stout man is quite good, and he gave a crappy reason somewhat, but others didn't even bother to give such a lame reason.

Suddenly, a group of people rushed up, and everyone shouted and beat the city lord's mansion, which was something that no one dared to shout out openly, but it was everyone's heart.

Although Ma Yongning said that he was born in the military, Xinji City is a situation where both civil and military families are separated, although with General Lin's protection, the City Lord's Mansion cannot directly bully the army, but this cannot change Ma Yongning's dislike for the City Lord's Mansion.

It's not for nothing that they're all outsiders, they're all high, they're all loved, and they're all shouting and beating.
