Chapter 40: The Human Heart

The first rays of dawn tore through the dreary sky, and the night faded quickly.

The people on Jijiabao cowered and looked at the soldiers in the battle below the city.

"Ji Yong took refuge in the slaves, do you want to help the slaves?" More than 100 soldiers approached the city wall and shouted loudly.

The defenders of the city cowered, their eyes dodging.

This was not only addressed to the city, but also to the captives under the city.

Li Yue, surrounded by armor soldiers, inspected the captives, and since they refused to bend their knees, it showed that there was still a bit of blood, and Li Yue did not believe that they were willing to surrender to the Qianren.

When Shi Le ascended the throne, he lightly dismissed the thin endowment, greatly promoted Confucianism, and it is understandable that he defected to him.

But who is Shi Hu?

In the sixteen years since he came to power, I don't know how many murders he has committed.

Which Hermes-Epitek in the north and south of the river has no blood debt?

Li Yue shouted: "You are all bloody men, are you willing to bend your knees under the crotch of the slave in the future?" ”

Half of them had a glint of anger in their eyes, and half of them had their heads bowed.

There is no need to say too much, people with hearts naturally know in their hearts, and it is useless for people without hearts to say more.

"After the city is broken, everything will be as usual, only the evil will be punished, and your family will not be harmed, and those who have meritorious service will be rewarded heavily, and they will never break their promises!"

Hearing this, those who lowered their heads also slowly raised their heads, and their eyes showed a greedy light.

National righteousness, heavier rewards, that's all Li Yue can give, "Xu Cheng!" ”

"The subordinates are here!" Xu Cheng excitedly brought more than a hundred armor soldiers over.

These people are all warriors who have experienced the bloody battle of Nanshan, and they are also the most fierce people in Heiyun Mountain.

Meng Kai said goodbye, Cui Jin went to Xuanyuan Mountain, Li Yue was short of people around, and there was only one beggar left in Wei Shan, so he needed to cultivate cronies.

"Siege!" Li Yue waved his hand.

Xu Cheng and more than 100 soldiers blended into the captives and carried a simple long ladder to advance towards the dock fort.

Wei Shan led 500 spearmen to supervise the battle, and the spears were almost against the captives' vests.

Tzu is not in charge of the army.

Between sacrificing prisoners and sacrificing his subordinates, Li Yue decisively chose the former.

"Don't shoot arrows, don't shoot arrows!" Xu Cheng coerced the captives to shout, there are their brothers and friends in the city.

There was chaos on the dock fort, and below the city was their left and right neighbors.

The foundation of the formation of Jijiabao is the clan.

Fathers, sons, and uncles are all in the army, so they are extremely powerful.

This is also a tradition since the Qin and Han dynasties.

In the event of a vicious battle, the father will not give up the son, and the brother will not abandon the brother, and if there is a bond between each other, he will move forward bravely.

The special thing about Wei Yizi is that it does not exaggerate benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith as much as other military books.

Advocate that there is no heaven above, no earth below, no master behind, and no enemy in front. A soldier of one man is like a wolf like a tiger, like wind and rain, like thunder and thunder, shaking and shaking, and the whole world is shocked.

This also has to do with the background of the times at that time.

Sun Tzu's Art of War is for geniuses, and it is more about strategy.

The current Li Yue has not yet reached this level.

Dock hesitated.

To deal with the enemy, they must sacrifice their lives and forget their death, but in the face of their relatives, they cannot do anything.

They hesitated, but Xu Cheng did not hesitate, erected a long ladder, and drove the captives to climb.

"The general has an order, only those who surrender to the slaves, and the rest will not commit!"

The armor soldiers shouted in the crowd, making the defenders of the city even more hesitant.

"Fart, are there all the eggs under the nest? After the city is broken, these thieves will definitely say that we will be slaughtered! They are thieves, thieves who do not believe in their word! Ji Yong shouted hysterically on the city wall.

The word "thief" came out of his mouth was unusually harsh.

"If you take refuge in the Karma, you will still live, but if the thieves break through the Dock Fort, your parents, wives and children will not live!" Ji Yong roared one after another, his voice hoarse.

"Idiot!" Li Yue was overjoyed.

Ji Yong said this, which is equivalent to taking refuge in the people.

This man is usually quite shrewd, but today he suffered a setback and lost his former calm.

Surrendering to the Qianren, Ji Yong may soar, but the people of Jijiabao will definitely not end well.

The reason is very simple, in the past, you only needed to serve Ji Yong's family, and in the future, you will have to serve the people......

Shi Le's light and meager endowment has long been completely overthrown by Shi Hu.

In the sixth year of Jianwu (340), Shi Hu wanted to destroy Yan State, and ordered Si, Ji, Qing, Xu, You, He, and Yongqizhou to draw three and four to take two, but Murong Ba refused, and it was no ......

In December of the eighth year of Jianwu (342), Shi Hu prepared to attack Yan from the sea, with more than 500,000 men with armor, 170,000 boatmen, drowned and died, and were devoured by tigers and wolves......

In the ninth year of the establishment of the martial arts, there was a "auspicious rui" in Qingzhou, one hundred and seven ministers sang the praises of virtue on the "Ode to the Emperor's Virtue", Shi Hu was overjoyed, and ordered the soldiers who were recruited to go out of the car for every five people, two oxen, fifteen hundreds, ten silk horses, and those who were unprepared were beheaded.

The people pawned their children, but they were still unable to supply the army, and those who committed suicide by hanging trees looked at each other from afar......

This is not counting the people killed when Shihu was building a large number of buildings.

Shi Hu's sons also followed the same example, Shi Xuan, Shi Jian, Shi Bao, Shi Tao, etc., through various means, oppressed and brutalized the Han people, resulting in a sharp decline in the number of Han people in the core areas of the Han family, such as Yong, He, You, and Hebei.

And since the time of Shile, those who surrendered to Zhao have not ended well.

The Jin general Liang Ju surrendered, but Shi Le refused to allow it, and buried 10,000 soldiers alive.

After Taishan Xu Niche surrendered, he was put into a leather bag by Shi Le, thrown from the city and fell to his death, and then let the people eat his heart......

As for Shi Hu, he is even better than Shi Le.

As soon as Ji Yong's words came out, the defenders in the city looked at him one after another.

Suddenly woke up, but it was too late, and the words that came out spilled the water.

Someone on the city wall had already laid down their weapons and turned back to the city.

Ji Yong was annoyed and ashamed, and stabbed to death a deserter next to him, "Those who dare not do their best to resist the enemy will die!" ”

And this is the second mistake he made.

The people are not afraid of death, so why should they be afraid of death!

At this moment, who would be afraid of the word "death"?

If he was really afraid of death, he would have fled to Jiangdong a long time ago.

More and more defenders threw down their weapons, and the city was in chaos.

In the midst of this chaos, a short figure quickly climbed the long ladder, as swift as a monkey, jumped up, jumped onto the dock fort, and slashed over a person.

Being short has the advantage of being short, extremely flexible, and hiding in the middle of the knife, more than a dozen defenders can't help him for a while.

Four or five armor soldiers also climbed up quickly.

Cooperate with each other, firmly occupy a clearing in the city, and suppress the counterattack of a dozen defenders around them.

More armor soldiers climbed the walls.

"Brother Xu Cheng, I'll help you!" Wei Shan also led the armor to climb.

In normal times, a dock fort would never be attacked so easily.

First, Ji Yong was defeated once outside the city, and the morale of the defenders was low.

Second, Ji Yong took refuge in the Qianren, which was unpopular and demoralized.

The people of Qiang and Xianbei oppressed the Han people, and their hatred was as deep as the sea.

Those who have the same desire up and down win, and those who have different desires will only have chicken feathers.

Ji Yong also led his cronies to resist on the city wall, but the floodgates of the dock fort were opened at this time.
