Chapter 801 I'm More Brave(1/4)
Zhen Siwen led the people up to the top of the city.
The last wave of our own scouts is fleeing back.
"Sima, there are quite a few enemy troops!" Yan Zheng pointed at the black shadow appearing in the distance, "Don't say more than ten thousand."
Zhen Siwen squinted, "Ten thousand and fifty!"
Yan Zheng wanted to laugh, but held it back.
Zhen Siwen still holds the position of Sima of Chenzhou. Chenzhou has been peaceful for a long time, and Zhen Siwen has not had a few opportunities to fight. It takes many experiences to observe the number of enemy troops...
This was said casually without fear of being laughed at by his subordinates.
He coughed dryly, trying to cover up for Zhen Siwen.
The full-time lookout sergeant shouted: "The enemy troops are 15,000!"
Yanzheng: "..."
Zhen Siwen patted the city wall and said, "Finally we are here."
Yan Zheng couldn't help but be curious, "Sima can actually count the number of enemy troops at a glance?"
Zhen Siwen nodded, "Back in Taipei, the government raised a large flock of sheep. Every day I would watch the sheep go out of the city to graze. Just standing on the top of the city..."
He pointed at the enemy in the distance, "Just look at it like this, click once quickly, and click again when you return. There were a lot of mistakes at the beginning, but gradually, I can be consistent."
Isn’t this person just a sheep?”
Yanzheng: "..."
Zhen Siwen turned around, "The men in the city gathered together to carry supplies and receive reinforcements if necessary."
"yes."
"The city is under martial law. Anyone who goes out without authorization will be detained and spoken to."
"yes!"
"Tell the soldiers that the messenger has gone to Taoxian County and the reinforcements are not far away."
"yes!"
Zhen Siwen turned around, but the enemy troops in the distance did not slow down.
"Prepare the bed crossbow."
The bed crossbow was set up.
The sight of the huge crossbow can send chills down one's spine.
Ta-ta-ta!
Fifteen thousand Northern Liao cavalry were beating horses and galloping, and the sound of horse hooves was like thunder.
"This is a shock!" Yan Zheng sneered, "Our army is all experienced in hundreds of battles, are we afraid of him? There is no need to do this to make people look down upon."
"It's just a head start."
Zhen Siwen patted the city head and said, "Logically, after our army captured Nangui City, the enemy forces in Neizhou should counterattack. But they kept waiting and waiting! I was so anxious waiting, and I thought the enemy general was a softie...
…Today, it’s finally here.”
Yanzheng said: "Sima, I guess there are some considerations!"
"I know." Zhen Siwen said: "The internal fighting in Beiliao is fierce now. Lin Ya and others are taking advantage of the opportunity of the new emperor's unstable foothold to counterattack. The new emperor can't care about this side for a while.
Most of the Neizhou guards are worried, worried that Ningxing's storm will sweep over them. Damn! The more I talk about you, the more familiar I feel, how about you?"
Yanzheng nodded, "Same as a lower official."
"But who do you remember?"
"I'm the official..." Yan Zheng rubbed his eyebrows, "I can't remember."
Zhen Siwen pointed at him, "Cunning."
Yanzheng chuckled.
Zhen Siwen said: "The fight between the DPRK and China affects the frontiers. Isn't this the Tang Dynasty?
As the deputy commander said, as long as you are a human being, you will have selfish motives.
As long as people get together, there will be fights. This does not depend on which country is the boundary.
Desire is the origin of struggle. That’s so well said!
Go and bring up some bundles of arrows."
Yan Zheng scratched his head, "Sima..."
Zhen Siwen glanced at him. "The deputy envoy said that when military generals start to play tricks and worry about offending others, they lose their purity. If a military commander is not pure, do you know what will happen?"
Yanzheng didn't expect that everything about him would be invisible in Zhen Siwen's eyes, so he went down to carry the missing arrow in shame.
"Lieutenant Yan, please say no!"
Several sergeants lost a bundle of arrows when he snatched them away and quickly took them back.
"Mom, give it to me!"
Yan Zheng looked fierce and snatched it away again.
He carried the arrow up to the top of the city and went back and forth several times.
Finally stood next to Zhen Siwen.
The enemy troops have approached the city.
"Stop!"
Someone yelled, and the enemy troops reined in their horses, and there was a sudden neighing sound.
"Tell me, what does the enemy mean?" Zhen Siwen asked, pointing at the enemy.
In the silent enemy formation, the passage slowly opened, and the enemy general Zhao Dora rode out.
Yanzheng said: "This is still a shock."
"What's similar to what happened recently? What happened in northern Xinjiang." Zhen Siwen asked seemingly casually.
Yanzheng hesitated for a moment.
But Zhen Siwen has already said that he is as cunning as a civil servant, just like a wallflower. Nobody wants a wallflower.
"It's like... it's like Chang'an forced me into Northern Xinjiang."
"Look, you clearly know what it is, but you are hiding it. You think that being secretive can ensure that you don't make mistakes, but no one dares to reuse someone who doesn't make mistakes.
Do you know why? These people are either too cautious or incompetent."
"yes."
"It's not easy being a deputy envoy."
"yes."
"So, I will like whoever supports the deputy envoy."
Yanzheng: "..."
"Anyone who is secretive or sneaky to the deputy will be beaten out by me."
A chill ran down Yan Zheng's spine, "I only obey Sima's orders!"
Zhen Siwen shook his head, "You don't obey my orders, you obey the orders of the deputy commander. If you give your allegiance to the wrong person, someone will die!"
Tell me, should you die or should I die?"
Yanzheng felt that he had underestimated this civil servant who was rumored to be extremely brave, "Yes, I am being reckless."
Zhao Dora raised her hand under the city, "Shout."
"Will you surrender or not?"
"Will you surrender or not?"
"Will you surrender or not?"
Three loud roars shook the heaven and earth.
Then, the world became quiet.
Zhen Siwen plucked his ears and shouted to the enemy: "Let your mother sleep with you. I might consider it!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
There was a burst of laughter at the top of the city.
Zhao Dora said coldly: "He is a mean-mouthed man. After he was captured, I personally cut his mouth open. Master Archer."
Dozens of archers are gathering.
Zhao Dora said, "Be prepared to attack, and then retreat as soon as you charge to cover the attack of the sharp archers."
To be continued...
