At sunset, Sheng Jin, whose face was covered with dust, almost roared: "Brothers, hold on, the reinforcements from the imperial court are coming soon!" ”

However, these words fell on the ears of the soldiers who defended the city around them, but they could no longer make any waves.

Because... Too many times, the same words, Sheng Jin talked from dawn to dark!

At the beginning, the soldiers defending the city were full of expectations.

But then, it became a question why the imperial court's reinforcements hadn't come yet.

And then there is anger, anger after being deceived!

In the end, it was completely numb.

Except for a few people who looked at Sheng Jin coldly, the rest of them were numbly bending their bows and arrows to defend the city wall.

Half an hour later, the rebels had already reached the wall.

After everyone struggled to clean up the rebels on the city wall, Sheng Jin shouted again, but this time, he was a little weak.

"Brothers, reinforcements from the imperial court are coming!"

"It's coming!"

"You have to believe me, I am the governor of Jiaozhou, an official of the imperial court, how can I lie to you?"

Sheng Jin wanted to make his tone more sincere, but in exchange, it was still just a cold face from the soldiers.

What's more, he snorted coldly and said, "Master Shan, do you believe this?" ”

"If the reinforcements from the imperial court can come, they will come early, as for us to wait from dawn until dark?"

"Aren't you saying these words to fool us into giving you your life to defend the city?"

"Bold!" When Sheng Jin heard this, his liver trembled, and he scolded loudly at the person who spoke.

Now the morale of the army is not strong, if there are a few more such remarks, this city will not have to be defended, and it will be sent directly to the rebels.

"What is your intention in saying this?"

"Your wife, your children, your parents, are all in the city, and once the city is broken, the men will be reduced to the ghosts of the rebels, and the women will be reduced to prostitutes in the army."

"You are not for me, but for your family in this city, and you should fight to defend this city!"

"Instead of lying here to confuse the people and confuse the army's mind! If there is a next time, this official will not be spared! Sheng Jin's words were chiseled.

Who would have thought that the soldier also had a temper.

He retreated directly from the defensive post, pointed at Sheng Jin's nose and scolded: "Then Lao Tzu will tell you the truth, I was an orphan when I was a child, without a father or mother, without a wife and children. ”

"The reason why I joined the army is just for that little monthly salary."

"I'm willing to fight hard for you, go to the city wall to kill the enemy, you should be secretly happy."

"Instead of nagging here and again, deceiving me, etc!"

"In my opinion, it's you, the Zhizhou, who confuse the hearts of the army!"

"Bold!" Sheng Jin was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and said angrily: "Who taught you these words, you are not a spy of the enemy army!" ”

"Hehe, it's a spy to tell the truth?"

"I think it's the delicate ears of Master Shan, who can't hear the truth."

When Sheng Jin heard this, his brows furrowed, and he had the urge to stab this miscellaneous piece to death with a sword.

Can he not know that it is not good to keep saying that reinforcements are coming?

He really didn't know if the reinforcements would come, and after coming down several times, the patience of the soldiers was exhausted, and the morale of the army did decline.

But..., if he hadn't shouted like that at that time, the city would have been shattered!

He had to have a means to motivate his soldiers to fight their way!

But now Jiaozhou, there is no money, there is no food, and the months-long war has long made this not rich state capital to the point of running out of oil!

So he had to make this decision!

But now, the backlash is coming!

Sheng Jin closed his eyes, sighed heavily, and said, "Then what should you do?" ”

"Kill this official, can you organize everyone to defend the city?"

He's really tired.

When the soldier heard this, he also frowned, and after a while, he said, "I don't have the ability to do this, I just want Master Sheng to apologize to me." ”

"Hehe, joke."

"This official is the official of the imperial court who is now enshrined by His Majesty, the governor of a state, why should I apologize to you?"

Sheng Jin was really about to be laughed at, and even the sword in his hand was lifted.

He is a dignified governor, and if he apologizes to a soldier, he is afraid that his majesty will not be lost.

Without majesty, how can he command his troops?

Seeing Sheng Jin draw his sword, the soldier was still not stunned, and directly raised his eyebrows coldly, and said: "I'm just a small person who is promoted to fight, and I naturally can't compare with Lord Sheng." ”

"I just don't know what the saint's expression would be if he knew that this is how the people under his rule would be."

The soldier glanced at the sword in Sheng Jin's hand and sneered.

"Or, Shanda can make a bet with me."

"If the reinforcements in the mouth of the Grand Lady have not arrived within an hour, the Grand Lady will apologize to me."

"If reinforcements come in an hour, let them be at their disposal."

As soon as these words came out, Sheng Jin suddenly fell into a dilemma.

If he doesn't agree, this person is only afraid that he will still make trouble, but now is the critical moment to defend the city, and there is no room for sloppiness.

should have promised him that he would first stabilize the morale of the army.

Can... This kind of thing is easy to say, if the reinforcements do not come after an hour, whether he apologizes or not, his majesty in the army will be lost.

If it weren't for the fact that this man had been under his nose since the beginning of the defense of the city, and had survived several near-deaths, his body was full of wounds left by the rebels, and his reputation among the soldiers was high, he would have almost thought that this was really a spy sent by the rebels to divide them.

"What's the matter, Master Sheng doesn't dare to choose?" The soldier snorted again, then picked up his weapon again, took a sip, and turned to defend the city.

Zhizhou can be scolded, but this city cannot be lost after all.

Most of what I just said was just angry talk.

However, when he walked to the city wall and looked, he was dumbfounded.

The rebel offensive has slowed down!

Before he retreated, there were several rebels who were about to climb the ladder to the wall.

But in a blink of an eye, there were only two or three left!

And sixty paces away, the group of sharpshooters also retreated, no longer shooting arrows at the city wall, which made the pressure on the city defenders instantly reduce a lot.

The next moment, Woooo

Three cracks were heard, and three arrows were accurately inserted into the three rebels who were climbing up the ladder.

The soldiers looked from afar, but saw a hundred paces away, a man and a horse, standing with their heads held high.

The longbow in his hand pulled a full moon, and shot an arrow again, which directly broke the rebels' flag!

Immediately lifted a silver halberd of a certain length, rushed into the crowd, and killed back and forth.

While killing, and cheering at the same time!

"The great cadres and soldiers have arrived, and those who surrender will not be killed!"

It was as if he had surrounded tens of thousands of rebels alone.

When the soldiers on the city wall saw this scene, they couldn't help but look at each other.

Sheng Jin even asked, "Whose general is this?" So brave! ”

"It's like... We don't have this person in the army! ”

"Could it be that reinforcements are really coming?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes moved to the soldier who was shouting with Sheng Jin.
