Volume 1: The Seven Stars of the Twilight of the World Chapter 258 Mutual Complaints
Geng Zhong is like this Jinsha border city, although he remains calm on the surface, his heart is surging with undercurrents. Especially after the main force of Jinsha was secretly transferred to the northern frontier to deal with the rangers by General Chang Poyu.
Now on behalf of Great Xia to protect Jinsha, only he and Xiang Bei, the two thousand military captains, are left, but Xiang Bei was inexplicably seriously injured, he was worried about Xiang Bei's injury, but on the other hand, he had to patrol the city wall day and night.
A young Great Xia warrior couldn't help but ask as he passed by,
"Captain Beacon, why did you let us split into small teams to patrol, and you had to constantly rotate patrols between the city gates, the brothers' strength was wasted. ”
"You can do whatever you want, where is there so much nonsense, I give you so much food every day, and I don't exercise much, and I will all grow into pig-like guys, waiting to be slaughtered. ”
The young soldier was a little scolded and a little blind, seeing that Lord Geng was already on fire, he had to scratch the back of his head and continue to trot all the way between the city gates.
Geng Zhong shook his head helplessly, if my brother was here, he would definitely not ask such a stupid question. Today's Jinsha is like an empty city, constantly letting unfamiliar faces appear on the city wall, not so that the peeping enemy can't figure out the reality of Jinsha.
With the momentum of Tianyao's strong city, especially the warcraft army, if the Warcraft army attacks, then it will only be a matter of time before this Jinsha City is broken. The best plan now is to confuse the enemies who are constantly gathering outside the city, delay their attack as much as possible, and try to hold out as much as possible until Chang Po can return victoriously from the north.
In order to boost morale, Geng Zhong led by example, patrolling the city day and night, which was very different from the previous image of the Shule border army that seemed to be scoundrel and slippery.
It wasn't until the middle of the moon that Geng Zhong dragged his tired body back to his barracks, not wanting to think that outside the door, there was already a tall and beautiful figure waiting for a long time.
Seeing this figure, Geng Zhong's eyes lit up, and even the exhaustion of his body seemed to have disappeared for the most part, and then he blamed his subordinates on duty,
"How long has it been since Miss Eldest Sun came, why didn't you report it!"
"Lord Geng, don't blame this brother, it's me who won't let them disturb you. The time of adults is not as good as mine, I have nothing to do all day long, and adults should wait for a while. ”
This time, I don't know why the soldier on duty suddenly opened his mind, and said flatteringly,
"Lord Geng, Miss Eldest Sun has been waiting for you here for two hours. ”
Geng Zhong took advantage of this reason to look at the shadow in the moonlight more carefully, and after a few days, it seemed that the eldest grandson Li looked thinner, and his originally round face had become a lot thinner.
"The conditions here are a little more difficult, but the military order is like a mountain, and I can only grieve Miss Changsun to stay for a little longer. ”
"My lord laughed, this place is much more stable than the homeless camp, and I can also see that the military and civilians of Sands Cotai do not enjoy more preferential treatment than we do. ”
Geng Zhong took the torch from the hand of the entourage beside him, "I'll send Miss Changsun back, you don't need to follow anymore." ”
Several of the attendants looked at each other, resisted the urge to laugh, and led the order back to the camp.
Under the moonlight, the mottled shadows did not make the eldest grandson feel cold, originally she was a strong woman who liked to ride a horse and dance a sword, but all along, she had to obey her father and her husband, covering up her edge.
Now the whereabouts of the men who gave orders to her are gone, but the captain of Daxia, who has just met in front of her, seems to know her mind better.
Geng Zhong not only bought her a rare fat powder, but also secretly gave her a green steel blade to defend herself.
Changsun Li took out the small green steel sword that he carried with him, the sword body was less than a foot, shining in the moonlight, the light sword body looked quite handy in Changsun Li's slender wrist, Miss Changsun danced a few times, and the edge cut out the sound of breaking the air in the darkness of the cold night, leaving a flickering afterimage, and then the sword returned to the sheath, and then it was put into the waist, not so much the green mang sword, but the dagger is more appropriate.
"The sword that the adults gave me is very handy, and I like it very much. Saying that, the usually pungent and capable eldest grandson couldn't help but lower his head.
Geng Zhong looked a little helpless in the face of Miss Changsun's gentleness, so he had to be a little polite, "It's good to like it, just like it." ”
Seeing that this big grinning rough man was so suffocated by a few words that his face was red and his neck was thick, Miss Changsun couldn't help but snort and laughed, but everyone's beautiful style made her hurriedly raise her wrist to cover her teeth.
Geng Zhong looked even more flustered when he looked at that sweet smile, racking his brains and finally figured out a topic, "Miss Eldest Sun came to visit late at night, I don't know what happened?"
The eldest grandson sneered again, "Oh, I said Brother Geng Zhong, do you remember the first time you saw me, and you couldn't wait to whip it up with a horsewhip, you and I are so adults, the young lady's shouting is too tired." Now there is no one, if you don't like it, just call me Ah Li, and I, just call you Geng Zhong, okay. ”
"Very good, very good......" Although Geng Zhong also felt that pretending to be Sven was very awkward, but for some reason, he just couldn't change his mouth for a while.
"My sister has been blaming, saying that I only like swords, but I don't pick up female red, which is detrimental to the lintel of the eldest grandson, and it is okay during this time, so I learned some craft from her. ”
As he spoke, the eldest grandson took out a brocade from his arms, which was not very bright, but it was already a rare thing in the border desert, but the stitches used to decorate the edges were slightly rough.
"Come, let me tie it to you. ”
"No, no, I'll come by myself, I'll come by myself, I'll ......" Geng Zhong immediately felt a little dizzy as soon as he smelled the aroma of fat powder when the eldest grandson was close, he was afraid that if he continued like this, his buzzing head would completely faint. Hurriedly snatched the brocade and retreated.
"Alas, I have known for a long time that adults are still adults, how can you look at me...... My craftsmanship ......" The eldest grandson shook the satin in his hand fiercely, and turned his head to leave.
This made Geng Zhong even more anxious, and subconsciously turned to the girl, stretched out his arms, "Don't go!"
Looking at the thousand military cadets who were ruffian and arrogant in front of his subordinates, he was in a hurry like an ignorant teenager at this moment, the eldest grandson was angry, but he couldn't find a reason, so he had to pout,
"It's not to stay, it's not to go, you idiot, what do you want me to do?"
"I want you ......" Geng Zhong blurted out in a hurry, but he didn't know what he wanted Miss Changsun to do, so he instead said something that made both of them warm their hearts.
The eldest grandson Liqing's face instantly turned red, and he stomped his feet in a hurry, although he was married to Xiqiang, but the Hou Ye almost marched and fought all year round, and the two almost never met, let alone had any feelings, and now in the face of the same age as the captain of Daxia, the two wanted to communicate, but they always did not speculate.
Geng Zhong saw that the eldest grandson was flushed but didn't speak, and after thinking about it, he finally saw the brocade that he snatched from her hand, so he handed it back, "This, I won't wear it, please teach me......"
"If you hate it, you will bully people!" As soon as the eldest grandson left the words, he instantly felt even more blushing, was he being coquettish, how could he say such a greasy and crooked word, fortunately, she could take the brocade and help Geng Zhong tie it on his shoulders to hide the embarrassment.
"Geng Zhong, at first glance, you are a rough man, but what kind of literati are you pretending to be in front of me? I don't want to be the second lady of the eldest grandson's family, and after this battle, I don't want to go to my relatives anymore, sending people under the fence is not the destination I want after all. ”
Although he was a little clumsy, the eldest grandson was very serious, and the brocade was attached to Geng Zhong's neck, which was cold at first, but soon warmed Geng Zhong's neck.
Geng Zhong didn't dare to move his neck, and finally came up with a compliment, "This material is luxurious, and your hands are so skillful." ”
The eldest grandson sneered again, "Forget it, you still pretend to be a literati, your nonsense kung fu has goosebumps on my body." This material was changed by me with my old clothes, and this handiwork was laughed and scolded by my sister for a long time. But don't dislike what I do. ”
"Don't dislike, don't dislike, how can I ...... if I am loyal to him?"
The eldest grandson was in a hurry, and his little hand covered Geng Zhong's bearded lips, "Okay, okay, you don't want to be a scumbag, either you talk well, or you can shut up......"
Geng Zhong subconsciously grabbed the little hand that was covering his lips, and felt that the skin on it was so smooth that he could almost squeeze out water. The eldest grandson broke free a few times, but he couldn't break free, so he had to obediently sort out the scarf he had sewn with his other hand, and he was pretending to be indifferent to the little hand that was grabbed by Geng Zhong.
"It's only a matter of time before the city breaks. Geng Zhong suddenly said with a straight face, although this sentence made the eldest grandson startled, but the instant cold look on Geng Zhong's face made her feel a little flustered, "Miss, when that time comes, I will definitely send you out of the city." ”
"Isn't there a little hope?"
"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, although General Chang Lao has always said that he represents the imperial court, and our border army in Daxia is enough to deal with the army of Warcraft in front of him, but in fact, he told me that the court has been delayed in sending reinforcements, just with our soldiers and horses, we can fight to the death, but it is difficult to win. I hope that the Son of Heaven will wake up from his arrogant and lascivious life and send us enough reinforcements. ”
"Well, then why do you have to hold on?"
"I am the victorious border army of Great Xia, and it is my duty to defend the border and protect the country. ”
"Well, then I'm not leaving. The eldest grandson looked at the dim night shadow in the distance, not knowing where the darkness in front of him would extend to the end.
The military camp to the eldest grandson is not too far from the urn city where it is, but the two seem to have too many words to tell each other, but unfortunately in the end they just silently paced forward step by step, and let go of himself when Geng Zhong was distracted, and the eldest grandson quietly reached Geng Zhong's rough big hand with the back of his hand, and gently touched the back of Geng Zhong's hand.
This time, Geng Zhong did not continue to be stupid, and took the opportunity to hold the shy little hand,
"Otherwise, you can take your sister to live with me, and when it comes to the critical moment, I can take care of you. ”
"No, you are a general who is going to lead troops to fight, and you have taken a personal favor for us, but I am afraid that the brothers below will not be convinced. You say there is no hope, but you still have to persevere, I want to tell you, as long as you haven't given up, then there is still hope......"
"We have all heard that the Xiangbei brothers only relied on the remnants of the army outside Yuzhu City to defeat the generals, and they completely annihilated the cunning defenders of Yuzhu City, and I also want to wait for you and Jinsha to triumph. ”
Changsun Li's voice was very soft, but this sentence weighed on Geng Zhong's heart like a thousand golden burdens, "Yes, so many people are willing to give their lives to Daxia Changsheng, as a Changsheng general, how can they want to give up so easily." ”
The eldest grandson suddenly felt that Geng Zhong grabbed his hand more and more powerfully, and even the pinching was a little painful. But she didn't run away, such a powerful hand should be able to cut off the heads of those murderous wolves.
Xiang Bei has indeed become the hope of Jinsha, and his achievements in Yuzhu City have rekindled the fighting spirit of the soldiers and civilians of Great Xia, who had fallen into despair.
Chang Poyu deliberately praised the achievements of the North among the soldiers, in order to rekindle everyone's desire for victory.
Just paying attention to Xiang Bei, but not only the border army of Great Xia, but also those black shadows patrolling outside the city began to tell each other, caught the young man of the human race, and then tore him apart and ate him.
The cunnings found that each other would be furious at the mention of the mysterious boy. It's just that they won't understand that anger and fear are two inseparable brothers, and that fear makes people angry, and anger is the strongest weapon that can help resist fear.
