Chapter 645 Sad Killing and Long River of Blood (1)

Chapter 645 Sad Killing and Long River of Blood ([-])

In the heavy snow, the carriage drove through the noisy streets.

There was the sound of running, shouting, and crying.This street leads to the city wall in the north. Another group of residents who volunteered to defend the city went there under the leadership of a small army. On the side of the street in the snow, there were women and children crying. The family members died two days earlier. On the city wall, there are not many such people at present. They are mixed in the noise, which arouses sympathy, but after all, there is nothing to say except comfort.

Because more residents are being mobilized to go to the city wall, the huge Bianliang City is shrouded in such an atmosphere.

When Li Gang, Qin Yuyuan and others mobilized the people to help defend the city earlier, there were many people who were willing to do so. However, when such a large-scale operation is carried out, they will naturally face various problems. Those who are willing to go often make the person in charge hysterical and manic.When things really came to the fore, the wives and children of each family might not really want the men in the family to go to the city wall, and the various situations that broke out from this were too numerous to enumerate.

But fortunately, what we are facing this time is really the vital interests of the residents of Bianliang. Even if some people cannot help, the number of residents who are really mobilized is enough.

This time the Jurchen attacked the city on a large scale, with a total force of more than [-] troops, while the number of soldiers in charge of defending the city was around [-].The total number of people mobilized, who have gone to help under the city wall, or are on standby in various places, has reached [-], and there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands who are ready to be mobilized at any time.

Such a huge organizational force caused the whole city to be in a state of frenzy and eruption. Invisibly, it also aroused the blood of everyone defending the city.At least in the short few days now, the patriotic sentiment in Bianliang City is unprecedented.If but in terms of political achievements, any official who organizes this situation is worth boasting for a lifetime.

The nameless carriage passed through the snowy city and entered the back door of Prince Tongguan's mansion.Here, some carriages and officials were already waiting in the yard.The young general on the carriage came down and walked into the inner courtyard. Tong Guan was waiting for guests. The young general made an announcement, and then went to report the situation at the top of the city. In fact, the new situation of the battle was similar. The battle was fierce and the top of the city was in critical condition: "... The Zhenren climbed to the top of the city twice and was repulsed again, but the top of the second and sixth section of the city has a lot of damage, which may become the breakthrough point for the Jurchens with all their strength..."

At this moment, the five or six people in the room could be regarded as court officials, military generals, or civil servants in charge of the military. Tong Guan looked at the blueprint of the city wall and deduced it, frowning, and asked about the situation in the city. .One of the officials asked: "...there is no one more proficient in military affairs in the world than the prince. What does the prince think of this war? Can we still defend Bianliang City?"

Another person said: "This time, the Jurchens seem determined to break through the city."

"Since we sent troops to attack the city, how could we never want to break the city!" Tong Guan looked at the blueprint of the city wall and frowned. We are determined, aren't we determined to defend the city! In this critical situation, we can only work together, don't have stupid thoughts, wait for you to go back, send your generals quickly, don't delay any longer!"

The Jurchens started to get serious. In order to defend the city, in just a few days, Li Gang even mobilized the troops defending the imperial city several times, mobilizing the residents below to help, but naturally there were differences.Ordinary people can only help to move bricks, boil water, and deliver supplies. Some martial arts escorts, guards of wealthy families, or knight-errants who wield knives and guns can really go to the top of the city to fight when organized.Naturally, many officials in the city were also mobilized, asking them to send their personal guards and guards to the city.For such things, some people readily agree, while others find their own backgrounds and seek their opinions.

However, at least at this time, the officials in the city, no matter whether they were in harmony with the left and right or at odds, dare not casually oppose this matter.Tong Guan, Cai Jing, Gao Yu and others even sent the family guards first—although they only sent a part of them, but in any case, it meant that they also hoped that the city wall could be defended.

Of course, in addition to sending out family generals to help defend the city, there are many other things. In order to prevent the city wall from being breached, they secretly operate it.

After these officials were dismissed for the time being, Tong Guan frowned, looked at the blueprint again, counted the time in his hand, and asked the trusted aide of the general next to him: "What do you think of the situation in the defense of the city?"

The confidant was silent for a moment, looking at Tong Guan: "Jurchen is determined to fight, the city... may be destroyed at any time. But as the prince said, the two prime ministers are equally determined, so..."

"The attack and defense of a city, when it comes to the details, is often inconclusive. The test is the speed at which both sides make mistakes and make up for them." Tong Guan touched the map and said word by word, "The battle before us, since three days ago, They were always in a critical situation. Jurchen wanted to find our fault in the storm. Every time they went to the city, they found the fault. On the afternoon of the 22nd, it was the most critical situation. However, Li Gang and Zhong Shidao were extremely resolute and expanded their mistakes in Jurchen Before, I filled it back with my life. Since then, I went to the city several times, and it was the same. If we hadn't been determined to fight, no matter which time, the city might be destroyed. Often only a few dozen people ascend to the top of the city, and the defender's will is a little weaker, and the mending is a little slower, that is, the whole city will perish."

Tong Guan is currently the person with the highest status in the military of the Wu Dynasty, and in the eyes of many people, he is also the person who is the best at fighting.His teachings are not known to the outside world, so no matter how much money they have, the cronies listened carefully.

Tong Guan paused: "It's just that being forced to make such mistakes frequently also shows that our defense of the city is on the line that can be broken at any time. Li and Zhong can make up for it a hundred times, and it only takes one time." If the movement is slow, Bianliang will be unreasonable. In this situation, it is impossible to speculate on the details, so when they asked whether the city can be defended, I can't answer."

When he said this, he sat on the chair and was silent for a while: "The right minister is very powerful... If Qin Yuyuan hadn't been suppressed by the Blackwater Alliance for several years, I'm afraid I wouldn't be in such embarrassment now that I'm fighting against the court. For three days, he continuously mobilized people to go to the city, so that the northern part of the city had sufficient supplies anytime and anywhere. I don't know where to go. People died or were seriously injured, and they couldn't retreat in time. Instead, they took up positions on the top of the city. If so, the city might have been broken. Even if Li Gang and Zhong Shidao wanted to move, it was a coincidence A woman can hardly cook without rice..."

"Your Prime Minister..." Na Qin said, "He is among the people, but his reputation is not as grand as Li Xiang, Zhong Shuai and others..."

"He is a pragmatic person, talented and famous, but hard to be famous." Tong Guan glanced at him, "Besides, after the Blackwater Alliance, he was vacant for several years, and he was infamous. Things, he is tired of this, and he wants to do practical things, sometimes he has to go the wrong way. The officials regard him as a cruel official, and the people are all ignorant and willing people, so what do they know? Alas, if he had concentrated on running the official Don't touch the mess of the Blackwater Alliance, and now in the court, he is the one who can stand up to Grand Master Cai."

He waved his hand on the blueprint, and sighed a little: "If that's the case, my Northern Expedition will be much smoother, and I won't be in such an embarrassment now..."

This kind of emotion is naturally suspected of being an afterthought, and it is not the category where the cronies can intervene.After a while, Tong Guan ordered and sent him to the top of the city to keep an eye on the battle situation.

What will happen to the battle on the city wall, as Tong Guan said, it is impossible to judge in detail, but from the overall situation, the Jurchen's record is famous all over the world, and if it can be defended for a while, it may not be able to defend it for a lifetime.This is the cognition of most officials in the city who know the inside story, and in the imperial city, Zhou Zhe, who is a little belatedly, has already moved at this time.

His hindsight was not due to slowness, it was purely annoyed by Li Gang, Qin Yuyuan, Tang Ke—even Tong Guan, Cai Jing and others.Earlier, the queen ran out of the palace ahead of time, and he chased after her, but was forced to stay behind by the civil and military forces of the Manchu dynasty. After returning, he got angry and stopped taking care of things: take the mess in front of you if you want, I'll see what you can do!

With such a mentality, he retreated in the palace and gave up on himself. Every day, he flipped through the cards of at least two concubines, and scolded them away after finishing. live!"

Of course, this was just a prank. He is an adult, and he still hopes to defeat the Jurchen in his heart. It's just that with this kind of thinking, he can ignore the troubles of those ordinary people. However, when the battle lasted for two or three days, he I couldn't help but start paying attention, and then I finally knew the situation.

Zhou Zhe is not a military general, and he has only a half-knowledge of the war. He cannot, like Tong Guan, know that the war has stepped on a tight steel rope based on the news from the city wall.But no matter what, with Zhou Zhe's intelligence and some brains around him, after three days, he will understand that those three old things have already done their best, and once the city is broken, he will really have to consider the southern tour. .

So he also started to act: he didn't care about the city wall anyway, even if he wanted to, he couldn't do anything at this time-this self-knowledge is still there.He quietly stretched out his tentacles, and focused on the road out of the city. In the end, he dispatched troops on a small scale, and arranged all the roads from the imperial city to the south gate with capable generals. During the period, many forces in the capital knew and knew what they were interested in, and helped.For example, Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Wang Fu, Liang Shicheng, Gao Qiu, etc., and Li Gang, Qin Yuyuan, and various officials who can intervene, such as Qin Hui, Tang Ke, Geng Nanzhong, etc., also tried their best to give the green light and do a good job. After these few back roads——Zhou Zhe felt relieved.

However, thinking that as an emperor, he has come to such a situation, and all kinds of traitors around him are rampant, which makes him feel like an emperor.Now aggrieved to throw out so much power, and aggrieved to consider the way forward, these people seem to be well-behaved, but in fact they are probably laughing at themselves as the emperor in their hearts.Every time he thought about this, he felt more and more depressed. In this way, he smashed a few priceless treasures.

Leaving the scope of the imperial palace, in the wind and snow, more than [-] people have to be promoted. The right minister's mansion and several subordinate departments in charge of the organization have an astonishingly huge workload.From Qin Yuyuan to the subordinate household, industry, punishment, and military departments, the coordination, operation, and connection between each other, from the first-rank senior officials to the lowest-level Lizheng and Yamen servants, issued orders and arranged deployment layer by layer.Every moment, hundreds of officials are running back and forth in the city. The grassroots officials deploy personnel, the middle-level officials are responsible for screening, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households prepare a large amount of logistics materials, and the Ministry of War reports every piece of information about the battle on the city wall. The staff will also make calculations based on the information, and then transfer groups of people to appropriate places, waiting to be used.

The real war is supported by the operation of thousands of trivial things like this.When a gap appeared in the fierce battle on the city wall, and Li Gang, Zhong Shidao and others quickly filled it with their lives, what really determined the overall situation was not only the fighting spirit in the city, but also their hands. Take it to fill the life.

Select people who can fight, who can be craftsmen and transporters, from the mixed masses, and quickly arrange them where there are vacancies.When every group of troops at the head of the city suffers a lot of battle damage, they respond keenly and invest in available new troops.Going back and doing a lot of publicity in the city, cheering everyone up, ensuring everyone's food and drink, etc., are all problems in the logistics center.

Qin Yuyuan, who sits at the center of the Ministry of War, has not closed his eyes for two days and two nights.

The entire lobby—including the yard outside the lobby, has been covered by the shed and became one—countless voices are ringing, officials and scouts rush in and out, and the officials below can make judgments on the spot for some things. The matter quickly spread to Qin Yuyuan's side, and then the high-level staff used a huge sand table deduction to restore the situation on the battlefield not far away, and then made a deployment decision.

Under Qin Yuyuan's command, all organizational capabilities have been brought to the extreme, and Ning Yi also plays a role in this - after staying in the Xiangfu center for so many years, his extremely efficient way of handling things and understanding, I have also learned a lot from other staff members of the prime minister's mansion. They are all the most outstanding people in this era. They can be used in many things subtly. In many details, the operation of the prime minister's mansion has great influence. Ning Yi's modern optimization.

Originally, such outstanding abilities were prepared for the Northern Expedition, but it was unexpected that the most urgent time was to defend the capital.In the busy process of responding to one message after another, occasionally Yao Zunian and others would come to persuade him to take a rest, but he waved his hand and refused, as if burning his life, the old man didn't feel tired at this time.

This is not an ominous sign. Although he has dealt with a lot of things for a long time, Qin Yuyuan also has extremely high attainments in health preservation and mind cultivation. In a sense, the strength of knowledge and spirit promotes The harmony of the body.In the past few years, the one that had the biggest impact on him was probably the reversal in which Zhang Jue was killed, but right now, with mental preparations, he can still endure such an overdraft.

Moreover, every order is extremely sober.

In the current situation, the offensive and defensive sides seem to be overdrawing every strength of their own and each other's lives. It's just that the Jurchen is like a young man with unlimited potential, but the Wu Dynasty side is already very old.Even though Qin Yuyuan was trying his best to deal with everything, what he felt was almost endless pressure.When one wrong step is to be reversed, the only choice is to keep going, and there is not much hope in sight.

Among the various news that kept coming in, there was finally one item that was of a different nature, like cheering up, and he didn't need to worry about it.The confidentiality of the news is extremely high, it was taken by Yao Zunian, and the entire letter was written in cipher text.

The deciphering method and qualifications of this cipher text are only owned by Qin Yuyuan himself, but the source of the news, Yao Zunian, is known, and it was passed in by Ning Yi and others outside the city.

Qin Yuyuan quickly completed the interpretation, and after a moment of silence, he informed Yao Zunian of the news.

"... More than 4000 people... take the initiative to attack?" Yao Zunian asked with his eyes, and there were several important messages from the side.

"Seal it." Qin Yuyuan clicked on the secret letter, and then began to read other news.

Yao Zunian put away the letter, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "Even if the soldiers are in danger, it's like sending them to death. Do you want them not to act rashly, call the rest of the army, and try to attack again?"

In the battle outside the city for more than two months, the strength of the Jurchens has been fully revealed. At this time, they stormed Bianliang. It is indeed very critical, but more than 4000 people make a move at this time. No matter what, it seems to be a dead end. Helpless move.The addition of Qin Shaoqian is more like sacrificing his life for righteousness and martyrdom for the country.

In a sense, although more than 30 people outside the city were scattered and fled in all directions, if they can all gather together and attack Zongwang's siege army, the siege of Bianliang can still be solved.It's just that it's easy to say, but it's really impossible to do.

The new information stayed in Qin Yuyuan's hands. The old man pursed his lips tightly, and then shook his head: "If all the boats are broken, the mourning army will win... If they can't win, this is their own choice, and it's God's will... We wait Now, I can only defend Bianliang desperately, without thinking about other things."

His gaze was resolute, and then he focused on matters in the city.From his eyes, it is difficult to know what the old man is thinking at this time, but it is clear that at this moment, his eldest son is trapped in the isolated city of Taiyuan, and his life and death are unknown, while his second son is also somewhere outside the city. With the wind and snow all over the sky, I embarked on the road to death...

Leaving the hall of the Ministry of War, among the white city, the knights who sent messages and reported news stretched all the way to the huge wall to the north. Countless crowds and soldiers were running towards the wall, and above the wall, continued The fighting and killing has almost stained every part of the city wall with blood.

On the west side of the city wall near the war-torn Xin Suanzao Gate, at the head of the city marked as the sixth section of the city, a section of the female wall has been smashed by the flying boulders, and the Jurchen soldiers are rushing to this gap , on the snow field below, the arrows of the Jurchen cavalry covered both ends of the gap. On both sides of the city wall, a large number of soldiers of the Wu Dynasty charged towards the gap with swords, shields and spears under the threat of arrow rain. The soldiers pushed a knife cart, shouting hysterically, and the arrow rain occasionally knocked people to the ground, and the crowd behind followed.On the other side, the Jurchens had already formed a forest of guns, and the soldiers in the front rushed towards this side pushing two large iron shields.

Farther behind the city wall, the soldiers of the Divine Bow Battalion were struggling to shoot arrows at the Jurchen cavalry below, trying to suppress the Jurchen cavalry.However, even if soldiers fell from their horses from time to time, the Jurchen cavalry still did not leave the area, and kept covering the wall with high-strength arrows.

Behind the city wall, Tang Yao had been shooting down the city wall for a long time, and there were already three Jurchens in the cavalry that he had confirmed to have shot. He was one of the best shooters in the Divine Bow Battalion, but when he shouted and pointed at the city wall again After shooting an arrow, an arrow stuck in his shoulder.

He gritted his teeth and squatted back behind the city wall, sweating profusely from his weakness and pain, his hands were trembling uncontrollably, almost all of this was not because of the arrow stuck in his shoulder at this time ——His hands, especially the five fingers, were torn apart and covered in blood. Four of them were wrapped in cloth, but they were still soaked in blood.

"Ah..." He yelled, and then roared "Ah——", his teeth still chattered, and his fingers kept trembling.

For an archer, the bowstring hurts his fingers. Even though there are many protective methods, after he has experienced the battle of running around the city for several days and constantly shooting arrows, each of his fingers is already shocking. but he could not wear thick gloves, because then he would not be able to feel the bowstring.

As a soldier of the Divine Bow Battalion, he could do more than just shoot the arrow at such an extreme distance. If that was the case, his value would be no different from that of an ordinary soldier.

Next to it, more soldiers were rushing up from the inner stairs to support them. One of them was obviously an organized ordinary militiaman. It was a fat man with a long gun. Sweating profusely, looking at him almost in tears - looking at the arrow on his shoulder.

The two looked at each other like this, Tang Yao was extremely embarrassed, not only was there blood on his hands and shoulders, but also blood spots on his body, his hair was loose, and when he opened his mouth, there was red blood in his teeth. On the surrounding city walls, the most shocking thing should be the corpses that have not restrained themselves. After the fat man saw it, the mournful expression on his face became even more serious.Tang Yao took two breaths, and suddenly shouted "Ah", he backhanded, pulled out the arrow on his shoulder forcefully, stood up, turned around, and drew the longbow with a "wow", the arrow whizzed shot out.

He stood there with his eyes wide open, and waited until he was sure that the arrow had hit someone, then turned around and squatted down again, looked at the fat man, showed a terrifying and ferocious smile, and shook his bloody fingers: "One." He was hoarse said.

The fat man still had a weeping look on his face, but then, holding the gun, he roared "Ah—" and rushed towards the gap in the city wall where everyone was rushing to support.

"Ha ha……"

The arrow had a barb, and when he pulled it out forcefully, the blood vessel on his shoulder ruptured and the blood flowed profusely. Tang Yao covered his shoulder, looked at the figure of the fat man rushing over, and laughed.Then he sat paralyzed by the female wall, watching the fat man rushing further and further away, smiling strangely, unable to stop: "Hahahahahahahahahahaha..." When the fat man disappeared into the crowd in front of his vision , His tears flowed out amidst the laughter.

The wind and snow howled, and inside the city wall, countless figures rushed towards the city wall like ants...

Outside the wall was the Jurchen camp. To Wanyan Zongwang, it was beyond his expectation that the cowardly Wu Dynasty people could still hold the city under such a tragic siege.He had already lost his temper several times. At this time, he was standing on the high platform in the camp, looking at the small gap in the city wall from a distance, watching the fierce battle, and kept giving orders, and then kept going down. up to more commands...

Over the mountains.The cavalry and infantry were walking in the snow together. The wind and snow maintained its strength, not small, and it was not very strong. It was no problem to fight.

This army of over 4000 people has a clear goal, and even everyone is ready to fight, and they are quickly approaching in the direction of Moutuogang. However, if the direction chosen is extended, it will be Bianliang City .

"Where's the troops?" In the Moutuogang camp, the ones in charge of the garrison at the moment are Wanyan Jiamu, who is in charge of logistics, and the general Shu Liesu. I heard that an army appeared at this time and took the initiative to attack. It was quite unexpected .

"I don't know. It seems to be a little different from the previous Wu Dynasty troops. It seems... a little scattered, but the coming is not slow."

"4000 people, half and half on foot and half on foot?"

"Yes."

"It seems that the rebel army was gathered by a big family... It's a whim..."

In the past few months outside Bianliang City, besides the regular army of the Wu Dynasty, there were also several rebel armies who came to fight the Jurchens. Generally speaking, the scale is small, but most of them are full of blood. At the time when the Jurchens were fighting with each other, rebel armies from all over the Wu Dynasty rose up, and they all said that they were inseparable from the Jurchens. In terms of numbers, there were 70 to [-] people. Illusion, but in fact, there are not many people who really dare to fight without fear of death.

Moreover, if it is the regular army of the Wu Dynasty, 2 cavalry, or not worthy of infantry, must be equipped with at least 4000 talents.

For Shu Liesu, the logistics line from Moutuogang to Bianliang City must be kept intact. He is not arrogant and reckless, but he doesn't take too seriously the more than 4000 people in front of him.

"Order Hu Zongxiu to lead 4000 cavalry to attack, and Pulu to lead [-] infantry, and then respond. The scouts will expand their search. If it is confirmed that there are only [-] people and there is no backup, then I will try my best to disperse them and snatch them back. In addition , strengthen the defense of the camp, and those who patrol around cheer me up, don't be taken advantage of by the people of Wu Dynasty!" Shu Lie quickly ordered, and then said, "In addition, after breaking them up, don't leave them alive. head on a piece of wood!"

At this time, there were a total of 2000 people in the Moutuogang camp, including [-] cavalry and more than [-] infantry, and the rest were craftsmen in charge of logistics.Of course, there were thousands more, captured Han Chinese, all locked up for fun, women and men as slaves.

The 4000 people from the other side came, and the same 4000 people came from his own side, which is already a gesture of a lion fighting a rabbit. On the one hand, he wants to disperse these people here with all his strength, and severely deter the Wu Dynasty army who has other ideas. On the other hand, Zongwang sent out all the troops, except for the 2000 elite cavalry left to him, the rest of the combat power was much worse. If he could snatch [-] horses, his side would be much stronger.

The cavalry came out with the wind and snow, and before long, they saw the enemy ahead.The Jurchen general Hu Zongxiu was a strong general, leading the brothers behind him, he rushed towards the same cavalry formation ahead.

The iron hooves are like thunder, and the wind and snow are rolling up!Jurchen's charge, in the current era, even the mountains have to be avoided.The reason why Hu Zongxiu didn't use the kidnapper horse riding and shooting tactics was because he was afraid that the opponent would be shot and collapsed and escape. In that way, the opponent's infantry could be wiped out, but if the cavalry chased each other on the snow, he might not be able to capture the opponent's horse up.

He hoped that the other party was stupefied and not to be frightened by the charge on his side.

As expected, the other party was not frightened, but also killed him.

This made Hu Zongxiu who was charging very upset.

Damn, dare to resist!

"Everyone, don't think about running, don't think about what will happen if you can't fight, if the Jurchens in front of you can't beat, then everything will come to naught. So this time, we either win or we all die here!"

The cavalry under his command was led by Qin Shaoqian, and the infantry was led by Ning Yili, who overcame all opinions and handed it over to the young general Yue Fei.

In the heavy snow, the shooting accuracy is not high, and within the distance of an arrow, the charge is instantaneous.

With a loud bang, the charging cavalry slammed together like waves. The leader, but more than a hundred cavalry, carried the greatest momentum. Their long weapons clashed together. Sparks come.

"Wow——" Hu Zongxiu took the lead, slashing forward with a long knife in his hand. Most of these knights were wearing rags and cloaks, and they were not the fastest runners.

The ferocious knife light came with a huge sound of "cracking—" and the force of the shock struck. Although the knight was blocking, he was also hit by his knife. The cloak opened, and the eyes behind the iron helmet stared at him. Looking at him, the heavy Guan Dao was raised in the wind and snow, and it was chopped out with an "ah"——

In the first round of confrontation on the battlefield, ferocious slashing sounded crazily, horses and figures fell, and under the huge momentum, some horses in iron armor staggered to the ground, countless sticky, The warm plasma was rushing and flowing on the snow.

More people and horses crashed into the wind and snow...

***************

Bianliang, in the wounded barracks.

Shi Shi felt a little dizzy.

The shocking wounded are being brought in one by one, while the corpses are being pulled out—because there is no place to lie down.

She has endured the astonishing bloody smell for a long time, the wounded barracks is not far from the city wall, she can occasionally see the tragic scene on the city wall, for her, it is an indescribable scene.She felt that she was more or less used to the gore, even the wounds of severed hands and feet, but she still wanted to vomit—it was just that she couldn't vomit.

She has not eaten for a day.There was no time to stop, even if she stopped, she would not be able to eat any more. At one time, that little general named Hou Jing ran over - one of his ears was cut off, Li Shishi didn't know how painful it was, But the other party came to her for bandages, with a smile on his face, as if he was extremely excited: he was finally injured.

But Shishi knew that the other party also forced a smile.

His brother-in-law—that is, He Leier's best friend—Xue Changgong has been promoted, and he has also been promoted, which is a good thing.However, not long after bandaging, Hou Jing went up the city wall again.During this period, Su Wenfang from the Su family came to find her once. Su Wenfang is now running around the city for the Xiangfu, mainly looking for the big families that Zhuji knew in the past, and begging them to send servants to help guard the city. , Mother Li dragged him to look for him.

The teacher asked about Ning Yi.

She had guessed what was going on with Ning Yi countless times before, but this time Su Wenfang brought her good news. Ning Yi is fine, but Su Wenfang refused to say what Ning Yi was doing now, but only revealed it to her at the end something.

"Brother-in-law killed the enemy outside the city. He was seriously injured some time ago. He has recovered now. You don't have to worry about him... What brother-in-law does on the battlefield outside the city is no lesser than you and me."

"I knew it..."

At that time, Shishi said this, but after seeing the tragic scene on and off the city wall, it was hard for her to imagine: Did he join such a tragic battle outside the city?

Inside and outside the city walls, the sound of fierce fighting that could almost tear people's hearts has continued for the past few days, and it can also be heard in the wounded barracks.However, at some point, the voice seemed to get quieter, but she didn't know if it was an illusion, because in the wounded barracks, more and more people were being carried in.She was brewing wound medicine, and when she brought a bowl of soup to others, someone called her: "Miss Li, Miss Li." She looked up, but it was Hou Jing, who ran over: "Jurchen retreat temporarily!" Go down, the Jurchens have been repulsed."

Shi Shi was still walking forward, at this time, what people around her said seemed to be the same, she was about to laugh, but her feet went limp, she suddenly fell down, the medicine bowl was broken, and the scalding soup was poured on her Gradually approached an injured person next to him, and the other side avoided him: "Be careful!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Shishi said repeatedly, Hou Jing had already run over: "Miss Li, you..." He wanted to help, but he was afraid to do it, Shishi struggled for a while before getting up, still apologizing .Hou Jing said anxiously: "Miss Li, how long have you not slept? Have you eaten? I, I have steamed buns here, but they are cold. Take a rest, and I'll get you hot ones..."

"I'm not tired, I'm not tired." Shishi shook his head, "You just said that the Jurchens have retired? Is that true? I still have to do things..."

"The Jurchens have retreated, really, for the time being, you should take a break." Hou Jing saw Shi Shi turn around to leave, and suddenly reached out to grab her sleeves, then turned around and said loudly: "Everyone! Everyone The person who takes care of you is Miss Shishi from Lulou! Mrs. Li, Miss Li, she has been helping the wounded barracks for the past few days, and she hasn’t had a rest for a day or two, and she hasn’t even eaten anything! Everyone, tell me! Shouldn't she be given a rest?"

His voice was quite loud, and everyone was stunned when he spoke, and then someone said: "Li, Mrs. Li, Miss Li? Is it Mrs. Mrs. Li from the Loulou?"

"Yes, that's right." Hou Jing said.The teacher next to him became a little flustered.

"I... I said it looks familiar."

"Yes, yes, I have seen it, it seems to be... Miss Shishi..."

"Ms. Shi Shi actually came to take care of me?"

"I saw that she is here and has not rested all day. Is she Miss Shi Shi?"

All kinds of discussions around him instantly boiled up.In these years, there are not many people who can see Li Shishi, but most people still know her name. Although she has been working hard for the past few days, her body is covered with blood, and her hair is a little messy, but if you look carefully, you will see her. With a beautiful and delicate appearance, it is still fascinating.Even some soldiers who had lost limbs were subconsciously looking at this side and asking questions.

After a while, someone shouted: "Miss Shi Shi, you should go to rest."

"Miss Shishi, how could you come to such a place..."

"Go and rest, we will be happy if you come to see us in this kind of place, we don't need to do these things. You see, the Jurchens have been repelled, I think I can kill a few more—"

The crowd became enthusiastic, but some were joking, and some felt touched. Shi Shi had already shed tears when facing these people, some with severed limbs, or soldiers who were bleeding and weak to the point of dying. Unable to stop, she stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears, cried for a while, and then nodded: "I, I'll go eat something first, thank you all, the real hard work is everyone, I, I don't know how to hold a knife , and can't go to the battlefield..."

"It's our business to take the knife!"

"...Miss Shishi, please watch. When I can get up, I will go up immediately and kill a few golden dogs for you to come back."

"...Even if it's on Miss Shi Shi's head!"

Hou Jing nodded desperately, and escorted Shishi to leave, he said: "I'll get you some hot steamed buns, there must be one by now."

Shishi shook his head: "It's okay if it's cold, you give it to me."

So Hou Jing took out a steamed bun wrapped in silk cloth from his bosom.The steamed buns were rough, after all it was cold at this time, and looked like stones, Hou Jing was a little embarrassed, but Shi Shi took it over and gnawed on it.When they walked out of the wounded barracks, the wind and snow had not stopped, the majestic city walls were still high, but the shouts of killing had stopped.In the surrounding open space, hundreds, maybe even tens of thousands, of people were resting. There were various supplies around them. Their bodies were covered with wounds and blood, and their bodies were being buried. Carrying it down and transporting it out, the people who carried the corpses lined up one after another.

Before this, Shi Shi had never felt that the surroundings were so peaceful, nor had he ever felt that this piece of tranquility was so precious.

****************

The blood line spread towards the front, and as the evening approached, the sky began to dim, and the tragic traces of the battle stretched all the way to Moutuogang, pushing past.

Behind Moutuogang, across the frozen lake, a team of more than a hundred people crossed the mountains, stopped at the edge of the woods and the lake, and hid themselves.

In the distance, Costin was flying in the snowy sky.

These more than 100 people were all covered in white clothes. The close-fitting white clothes looked a bit like a fisherman's swimming pool. They were sealed as much as possible to keep warm and waterproof.

The leading woman is the "Blood Bodhisattva" of Luliang Mountain, Lu Hongti.

At this moment, more than 100 people are just waiting quietly by the woods.

In the wind and snow, evening is approaching, and the thin sky is about to begin to dim...

……

Bianliang.

In the small house near the wounded barracks, Shi Shi fell into a deep sleep.

She was awakened by a terrible noise.

Open the door and go out, the last light of the sky is receding in the wind and snow, a bonfire has already been lit in the city, and there are countless running figures in front of it.

She was still a little confused, she had seen this kind of running around before, but it wasn't until the figure of the fighting spread, and she was in a somewhat stiff mood, that she could vaguely understand what happened.

"Wow ah ah ah ah ah-"

Two groups of people were fighting together not far in front of her. A tall and rough alien man with two knives roared wildly, leading several companions to fight with the soldiers who rushed over.

Blood splashes.

Several soldiers from the Wu Dynasty were beheaded to the ground, and the flames were extinguished. The other party saw someone coming here...

On the city wall in the distance, the sound of fighting was boiling, as if the whole city was rolling.

The Jurchen... broke the city...

Shi Shi's mind was blank, only this thought flashed past...

　I used to stay up all night, so I wanted to adjust the update time and work schedule. As a result, after finishing this chapter, there are more than [-] words, and the time is up to now. My brain is still turning like a boil. At least two I can't sleep for hours, what should I do now...

I haven't canvassed tickets for a long time. Although I'm bored, let's ask for a monthly ticket. Although I have missed the double at the beginning of the month, it may not make sense to do so, but I just want to reward my current state.Well, please vote!Seek comfort!My schedule is over!
