Chapter 50: Unwavering Siege Heart
Take all the soldiers who can move, and rush to Kurin at full speed around the Kurin army.
As long as the two empty garrisons die first, as long as they can survive until the city is broken and the army comes to help, Gwangju will be saved.
This is what Su Xian said, ostensibly surround Wei to save Zhao, but in fact it is ruined.
Bet everything, and you are bound to fight to the death.
And Su Xian and Jiang Ci put their bets on Su Yu and pinned all the hopes of the people of Gwangju City on Su Yu.
If it fails, the besiegers can live, and the defenders will die, and there is also their selfishness to let Su Yu live.
The water vapor in the house was steaming, and Su Yu raised her head to the surface, her cheeks and body were blistered pink with water.
The hot water soothes the messy mind.
Now, she had no choice but to take the first city on the border before the people of Kurin.
"Xue Ya, help me bring my clothes in."
"Snow buds? Snow .."
Su Yu paused, bitterness welled up in his heart, and the heat could no longer cover the chill from the inside out.
"Master?"
Ah Yue walked in with clean clothes and stood behind the screen: "Has the master washed it?" ”
Thinking away, Su Yu left the bathtub and bypassed the screen, got the clothes and put them on quickly, and before he had time to dry his hair, he walked out of the house and went to where Su Xian was.
Before dawn, when I walked to the lobby, there were candles dyed in the room, only Su Xian, Xiao Mingyuan, and Cheng Yu were gone, and Jiang Ci was not seen.
"Brother."
Su Yu crossed the threshold, walked to the sand table in three or two steps, and arched his hand towards Su Xian: "Can you go?" ”
"Hmm." Su Xian glanced at her, his gaze fell back to the sand table, and he pointed to a road with lush vegetation: "This road is the closest road to Buro City on the border of Kurin. ”
His fingers moved halfway there: "But there is a swamp here, and I have ordered special planks to be prepared overnight, and you all bring them with you, and the spies sent to report that the army of Kurin is only five days' journey, so you must march under the stars, and within five days you must be in the city of Buro." ”
"Yes." Cheng Yu waved his hand and bowed.
Su Xian's brows were still tightly locked, he looked up at Cheng Yu and Su Yu, in a dilemma, and thought for a while: "If the villain is scheming, sneaks into my Daheng, intercepts my father and his party, and threatens it, what should you two do?" ”
Cheng Yu did not hesitate at all: "The last general will do his best to save the life of the Hou Ye." ”
"Brother, don't worry." Su Yu's eyes were firm, "No matter what the situation, I will not change the heart of the siege." ”
Su Xian's frowning brows finally stretched slightly: "On this trip, I ordered Su Yu to be the main general, Cheng Yu to be the deputy general, and the Sixth Highness to accompany him, and set off immediately." ”
"Yes."
"The last general commands."
"Wait a minute!" Xiao Mingyuan was sent out in a daze, with reluctance written all over his face, "Does General Su think I'm greedy for life and afraid of death?" I will also stay and defend the city. ”
Without waiting for Su Xian to open his mouth, Su Yu took a step forward and said, "Do you think that General Cheng and I are greedy for life and afraid of death?" Went with us to raid and wronged you? ”
"Yu'er!" Su Xian reprimanded, "How can you be rude to the Sixth Highness? Quickly make amends to His Highness.."
Before the crime was spoken, Xiao Mingyuan made amends to Su Yu first.
"Sister, you misunderstood me, I didn't mean to slander you and General Cheng, I am..."
"This battle is more important than defense, the lives of all the people of Gwangju City are entrusted to the shoulders of the besieging army, let you go with you in this time of crisis, as a prince to inspire the army, how can it be said that you are greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Su Yu showed no mercy: "Okay, if you want to stay, then ask yourself if it is useless to stay in the city?" Can you defend the city and kill the enemy? Or can it heal the wounded? It's just a burden. ”
"Yu'er! Don't be presumptuous! Su Xian let out a loud sigh.
Although every word of Su Yu's words was what he wanted to say, Xiao Mingyuan was still a prince no matter how he was, he was a king, they were ministers, how could he commit a crime.
"Sister Sister is rude, don't blame His Royal Highness Liu, let His Royal Highness Six go with him, as Sister said to encourage the army, there is King Jin and His Royal Highness in the city, Your Highness can rest assured."
Xiao Mingyuan's eyes dimmed, and he nodded aggrievedly and said, "I know, I'll go with you." ”
As he spoke, the sun outside the house had risen in the east.
"It's time to go." Su Hyun bowed his hand to each of the three, "I will entrust the lives of tens of thousands of people in Gwangju to you." ”
Su Yu and Cheng Yu hurriedly clasped their fists and bowed back.
"General rest assured."
"Brother, don't worry."
The sky was hazy, all the soldiers were assembled, the three of them walked in front of the army, the city gate was wide open, and the team slowly left Gwangju City.
Suddenly, Ah Yue ran out with a long handkerchief in her hand, she rushed past the army, ran to Su Yu's side, and handed the handkerchief in her hand and a deerskin rope in Su Yu's hand.
Su Yu pinched the deerskin rope and looked back at the city wall, but he didn't see the owner of the rope.
"Master." Ah Yue gasped and took several deep breaths before her breath stabilized, "The prince said that if you don't dry your hair, you will catch a cold." ”
Su Yu clenched the handkerchief in his hand and said, "I know, let's go back." ”
Ah Yue nodded, and ran back with a tight pace.
Su Yu wiped her hair and tied her long hair with a deerskin rope.
"Let's go!"
Zhao Cai rushed out first, and the long line then rushed up, and disappeared from view in a blink of an eye.
Jiang Ci retracted his gaze, turned around and walked down the city wall.
There are only five days left before life and death are decided.
In the past five days, Su Yu and his entourage have been rushing almost day and night, trying to buy some more time.
Gwangju City did not dare to stop for a moment, all the strong men in the city were gathered, and half of them went to the enemy outside the city, after all, the road was arranged with traps and thistles.
Half of them arranged the equipment for defending the city such as the transfer machine, the sassage and the flying hook in the Jingyu Pass, and made a knife cart in a hurry to make a knife car in order to make the final blow when the city was broken, and stood in the city gate.
Jiang Ci and Su Xian discussed the deployment day and night, and Dong Wen supervised the work, while Xu Tiandong was not idle, taking Xueya and the city physician to diagnose and treat the soldiers in the barracks, and worked hard for the number of people defending the city.
Covered in frost and dew, the whole army was at full speed, and the raiding team finally arrived ten miles outside the city of Bro on the night of the fourth day.
After a night's rest, the army arrived at the city of Bro early the next morning.
Unlike Gwangju, which was fully prepared, Buluo City was completely unfortified and due to the huge disparity in strength with Daheng, suddenly Rin poured out of the nest in this battle, leaving the garrison of each city with even less troops than the officials of Daheng in a small city and county.
Seeing this, the sentinels in the city hurriedly beat the big drum of the announcement, and through the city wall, they could also feel how panicked there was in the city of Buro.
It didn't take long for the guards to stand on the city tower, and the herald walked to the horses of Su Yu and the others, just waiting for the order.
"Tell them that if they surrender, they will spare the people of the city, and if they fight, they will slaughter the city."
Cheng Yu and Xiao Ming were stunned when they got together.
However, Su Yu was extremely determined, and only in the most extreme way could the Ku Rin army not dare to delay for a moment to return to help.
"Enemy generals, listen!" The herald shouted at the top of his voice, and his voice clearly reached the tower, "Surrender quickly!" The people of the city can be safe! If you swear to resist to the death! Our army will definitely break through the city pass! No one in the city will be left! ”
The man in armor on the city tower was obviously a little uneasy, his gaze swept over Xiao Mingyuan, Su Yu, and Cheng Yu, and finally stayed on Su Yu, who was immediately in the center.
"The coming general is a member of the Hengguo Su clan!"
Su Yu didn't want to talk nonsense, so he raised his hand and signaled to the herald.
"Don't say much, thief! In the end, it is a war or a surrender! ”
The man on the city tower was pacing left and right, and suddenly thought of something and shouted: "Are you the daughter of the Marquis of Hengguo Ning Yuan!" ”
"Exactly!" Su Yulema took a step forward, not minding letting the other party understand, "I don't want to talk to Xiao Xiao, whether I fight or surrender, I will only give you half a cup of tea!" ”
The enemy general breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard this, his nervous expression eased a little, he whispered a few words to the adjutant general on the side, and the adjutant general turned around and ran downstairs.
"Second Miss, something seems to be wrong." Cheng Yu walked to Su Yu's side.
Su Yu's eyes rolled slightly: "It's really strange." ”
Just when Cheng Yu wanted to say anything more, the deputy general of the enemy army in the city tower tied up a young man, pushed him to the side of the city tower and put a short blade on the young man's neck.
"Little boy!" Cheng Yu instantly clenched the reins and almost reined in his horse and ran out.
"What's the matter, how can the little boy be in the hands of the Sudden Rin!"
Su Yu looked blankly at the young man on the city tower.
The boy's face was sickly pale, and his body was thin, as if the man who was holding him would die at the slightest exertion, and perhaps the enemy knew this, and did not even tie him with a rope too thick.
"Mo'er..."
It's really Mo'er, Su Yu slowly clenched the reins, his fingers tightened tighter and tighter, his nails embedded in the flesh, and his palms were stained with thin blood marks.
She gritted her teeth and squeezed out two words from between her teeth: "Li.. Xu.."
It is worthy of you, the scheming and scheming have not been reduced at all, the mechanism is exhausted, and everything is done, and every step is stepped on the weakest part of the human heart.
"My brother is a prophecy."
Su Yu lowered his eyes, his gaze fell on the bow and arrow hanging on the side of the horse, and suddenly smiled, smiling bitterly.
Li Zhijin, Li Zhijin, live a new life, but you still have to be led by the nose.
"Listen, people under the city! Hurry up and get back! Otherwise, let this kid's blood splash! ”
"Retirement? Hahahaha, joke! ”
Su Yu took off the bow and arrows, put the feather arrows on the bow, pulled the bow and stood up, and the arrow pointed directly at the throat of the young man in the city.
"Second Miss!"
"Shut up!" Su Yu's hand with the bow was dripping with sweat in his palm, but there was no ripple on his face.
"My brother ordered me to be the main general, and if I dare to say more, I will be dealt with by military law!"
Cheng Yu looked at the young man on the city tower, and then at Su Yu, sweating in a hurry, and lowered his head with a sigh.
"Sister?" Xiao Mingyuan couldn't help but speak, "The city... Isn't it your brother? You.... Are you going to kill him? ”
The enemy generals on the city tower were a little stunned when they saw this posture.
"General Su! Open your eyes and see clearly! This is your own brother! ”
Su Yu narrowed his eyes and slowly pulled the bow full: "I can see it clearly." ”
"Sister... Sister, maybe, maybe there's another way... Do we have to think about it in the long run, this...."Xiao Mingyuan couldn't figure it out, how ruthless a person must be, so that he could not hesitate to kill his own brother with his own hands.
Su Yu looked at the young man on the city wall, and the depths of those peach blossom eyes were flooded with indelible grief.
