Chapter 514: War Keeps Women Away
"It's Mengbu! It's Brother Meng's people!"
"They don't seem to have decreased at all, but have come out a lot, maybe they have found a way to avoid this heavenly punishment safely!"
"This is not the time to think about this, if they attack the city, how can we stop it!"
......
Originally, Meng Bu did not play his own banner in order to hide his whereabouts, all the flags were put away, and the people in the city could not see the origin of Meng Bu, but after Mu Lin's roar, the entire city wall suddenly became noisy, you must know that this is Meng Bu, not an ordinary horse bandit tribe!
The middle-aged fat man at the head of the city was suddenly frightened by Mu Lin's words, and the fat on his face immediately trembled, and he asked several generals under him, "What do you say?"
One of the generals said, "I can't beat it, so I don't want to surrender." ”
"No, if they take the opportunity to steal our cattle and sheep, then how can we survive!"
......
The generals argued, and the middle-aged fat man couldn't make up his mind. However, the Mengbu under the city obviously will not delay their footsteps because of them, Xiao Mengge gave an order, tens of thousands of Mengbu people roared loudly in unison, and the overwhelming sound was overwhelming towards this Jieyi City, which immediately alarmed all the people in the city.
Originally, due to the barrier of the city wall, many people in the city did not know what was happening outside the city, but as soon as the Meng army roared like this, the city was immediately in chaos.
Meng Bu has been suppressed for many days of depression through this roar also suddenly burst out, the army immediately moved, several radical generals have blood red eyes, the depression that has been accumulated in the chest these days before instantly turned into boundless anger and murderous, eager to immediately crush the Jieyi City in front of them, anyway, in their eyes, these guys hiding in the city have long been no different from those people in the wilderness, who knows if they are clean, since this is the case, it is better to kill directly!
Seeing that the army had some intention of breaking free from his control, Xiao Meng Ge suddenly shouted violently, and the roar that pierced through the internal strength shot into the sky, and immediately suppressed the voice of the original army.
Brother Xiao Meng shouted angrily: "Listen to my military orders, no one is allowed to act rashly!"
Shang Zhengyu sighed secretly in his heart, although the leadership charm of Brother Meng was useless, and under his leadership, the Meng Department was already considered a strong soldier, but they were not an army after all, and they had not yet reached the level of prohibition.
Now what I saw and heard along the way has made the negative emotions accumulate in the army to a peak, and once it erupts, it will be like a volcanic eruption.
Shang Zhengyu asserted that as long as Brother Meng ordered the siege of the city, the entire army of Meng would definitely turn into a wild horse, and it would completely turn into a massacre, even Brother Meng would never be able to pull it back!
Brother Meng was a little undecided, he stepped in front of Wulan Gang and asked solemnly
said: "Brother Wulan, you have also seen the situation in Mengbu now, what do you think?"
Ulan Gang also saw very clearly, he was originally a veteran under the command of Tian Khan, but now he just didn't want to stay away from his homeland, so he chose to stay in the Northern Regions, and in terms of war wisdom, he was better than Xiao Mengge. Wu Langang shook his head coldly and said, "You can't set this precedent, otherwise Meng Bu will never be able to go back to the past in the future." My opinion is that it is okay to coerce them to surrender the city, or to plot against some of them, in short, they can't slaughter the city. If you're worried that these negative emotions will affect the military, then ......"
Brother Xiao Meng leaned over, and Ulan just whispered a few words in his ear, and Brother Xiao Meng nodded frequently.
"That's all there is to it. Brother Meng sighed.
Although Wu Lan Gang was already very careful, Nalan Shu's situation cultivation still made her hear some of their whispers, and her face was immediately angry, but before she could break out, Shang Zhengyu pulled her in front of him and didn't let her speak.
"Brother Shang, they want to ......"
"Nalan, this is war. If you can't accept it, then I'll have someone send you back!"
Looking at the firmness in Shang Zhengyu's eyes, Nalan Shu suddenly seemed to be deflated, and her fists were clenched for a long time without saying a word.
"Nalan, this is war, you haven't seen us when we were defending Langfu at that time. For the sake of survival, for the sake of food, I think most of the women in the city are probably willing to do this. Wan Yanjing stepped forward at the right time, hugged Nalan Shu tightly in her arms from Shang Zhengyu's side, and comforted her with kind words.
She remembered the time when she and the people in the East Courtyard were defending Langfu, when it was snowing heavily and the people's food was cut off, in order to keep herself and her daughter alive, the woman opposite the East Courtyard could only go to the army to sell herself in exchange for a very small amount of food from the low-level officers.
All this happened in front of Wan Yan Jing, Wan Yan Jing watched the woman sink little by little, and finally went crazy directly, and died in front of her house on the night of the end of the war.
A woman in war is always a tragedy.
"Wan Yanjing, you take Nalan to find a place to rest first, Ziqi, you go with them to ensure their safety. ”
Shang Zhengyu sighed slightly, he didn't want Nalan Shu to face the ugliness of these wars, but no one could avoid it. Negative emotions in the military have accumulated to the point where they must be vented. Whenever Wanyan Jing and Nalan Shu came out of the tent, those Mengbu soldiers who were already red-eyed became as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, if it weren't for Nalan Shu's princess identity and the protection of Yes and Ziqi, I am afraid that something would have happened a long time ago.
Perhaps, it's time to part with the Great Army.
At the same time that Wanyan Jing and Ziqi took this Nalan Shu to leave the front army, Xiao Meng Ge also began to negotiate with the middle-aged fat man, looking at the fat man nodding and smiling with a smile on his face, Shang Zhengyu estimated that they should be planning to choose to surrender, after all, this is an army of tens of thousands of Mengbu, how can a city that seems to have only a few thousand people be able to hold it.
A group of light cavalry of hundreds of people drove into the city, smiling one by one, and after a while, they began to move unkempt women one after another towards Mengbu, causing everyone in Mengbu to start cheering, and the whistle was endless.
Shang Zhengyu didn't want to look any further, and left first after saying a few words to Wulan Shu and Wulan around him, he had already decided in his heart that he would no longer live with the army in the future, but set up a barracks by himself outside, so as to prevent Nalan Shu from seeing those things that Shang Zhengyu didn't want her to see.
Jieyicheng took over very smoothly, Xiao Meng Ge sent people to search the whole city carefully, aiming to find evidence of cannibalism in some parts of the city, Xiao Meng Ge did not care about it, and killed a large number of people, and finally cleared the city of this filthy atmosphere.
However, everyone knows that even if so many people are killed, there must still be fish that have not been killed, but Brother Xiao Meng can't manage so much, because he still has to hurry up and go south.
The entire Meng Department camped outside the city for three days to rest, in addition to completing the handover of Jieyi City, it was also waiting for the logistics troops to escort military supplies in the rear.
During these three days, the sobs of women and the cathartic howls of soldiers could be heard everywhere. Shang Zhengyu moved out of the camp early with Nalan Shu, Wan Yan Jing and Ziqi.
After resting, continue to pull. However, when Meng Bu left Jieyi City, there were hundreds of more women in the army, and they all left with the army voluntarily, because no matter what happened in the army, at least they would not starve to death.
In the past few days, Nalan Shu has been sullen, Shang Zhengyu simply said to Xiao Mengge, and he took some things and water to move out of the camp directly with Nalan Shu, Wanyan Jing and Ziqi. Brother Xiao Meng was still a little hesitant, because he was afraid that Nalan Shu and Shang Zhengyu would have an accident at that time, so after careful consideration, he said that he needed to send a team of 100 people to protect Shang Zhengyu and them.
Shang Zhengyu also knew what Brother Meng meant, so he followed him.
A little further south, you can already see a little green, it seems that the impact of the ice age extreme cold storm on the northern region has been weakened by half, the grassland fox has also run out of its nest and started to hunt on the ground, and even the brown bear Shang Zhengyu who woke up from hibernation has seen two of them.
But the most dangerous thing is not the brown bears that roam alone on the grassland, but the herds of steppe wolves! Because the extreme cold storm has seriously affected them to go out to forage, they are all hungry, and once they find that they have the opportunity to get food, they will never let go!
Anyone who lives on the prairie knows that it would be a nightmare to encounter wolves on the prairie just after the bitter cold has passed, and these beasts that have been tormented by hunger in their bellies will be a hundred times more ferocious than usual, and everything they can eat will be used as food by them as far as the eye can see.
Recently, a sentry has found signs of wolf activity near the army, and judging from the footprints they have left, they have been following the right flank of the army, which makes Xiao Meng Ge a little worried.
