Chapter six hundred and twentieth chaos
The Daning Scout who sneaked into the north bank did not sleep all night. Everyone seemed to have walked around the gate of hell. Some people came out alive, some people stayed in the gate of hell and could never get out again. The cold on the south bank also did not sleep all night. The sky was bright and he was still standing next to the reed marsh and watching. When the left hand was sore and numb, he changed his right hand, and when the right hand was sore and numb, he changed his left hand back. He knew that Chen Ran and the others should have been safe for the time being, but he was just worried, so how could he feel at ease?
When Yan Kaisong found Chen Leng, he found that there was a layer of frost on Chen Leng's iron armor.
“The weather is about to change.”
Chen Leng turned his head and looked at Yan Kaisong: "This year's turn cold is earlier than in previous years, and we don't have as much time as we expected."
Yan Kaisong helped Chen Leng: "Go back and have a rest."
Chen Leng nodded and took a step. He realized that his legs were so painful that he couldn't move for a while. He stood there motionless for a long time, not only his legs were no longer able to do, but his eyes were also red.
"According to the plan, let the brothers continue to shout on the shore, and the auxiliary soldiers continue to cut down wood to build floating bridges and rafts. Don't be afraid of too much, the more the better."
After a while of cold movement, I barely could walk smoothly: "Wait for three days, at most three days, it has already fallen, and the snow will come soon."
After returning to the camp, Chen Leng asked his personal soldiers to get some hot water and run away. When his feet were inserted into the basin, it felt a biting pain, but he knew that the things he had suffered were nothing compared to Chen Ran and the others lurking in such cold water for an hour.
The next day, the rest of his subordinates asked for instructions when they would attack, Chen Leng replied and wait and see.
Then he stood on the shore for a day.
On the third day, the generals of his subordinates came to ask for instructions on when to attack. Chen Leng replied that he was still waiting and then stood by the river for another day.
That night, Chen Leng raised his tent to discuss matters.
"It has been three days and two nights, and our people have not been able to instigate the refugees. I believe they have tried their best. If they are given some time, they will definitely succeed, but we don't have so much time to continue waiting."
Chen Leng breathed a sigh of relief: "In the past few days, the auxiliary barracks have cut down enough wood and calculated it to be enough to build five pontoon bridges. But you and I know that we may not be able to build a pontoon bridge, but now we have no other choice. If we build a pontoon bridge during the day, the casualties will be too great, so I want to start from tonight."
Yan Kaisong was stunned for a moment: "It is too difficult to build a floating bridge tonight."
"The casualties are relatively small."
Chen Leng said: "We can't see clearly, and they can't see clearly either. Judging from the sound, shooting arrows towards us will be much worse than aiming and shooting. Tell everyone that I will lead my personal military camp and all the auxiliary soldiers to go into the water to drive piles."
Yan Kaisong's face changed: "General Chen, this is not possible."
Chen Leng shook his head and said, "Nothing is OK. I didn't allow him to go before Chen Ran took people to the North Bank. He said that they were all children born by their parents. Why can't he go? Or this sentence, they are all men born by their parents. Why can't I go if the auxiliary soldiers can get water? Tonight, all the people who participated in the construction of the floating bridge are soldiers, whether they are soldiers, auxiliary soldiers, generals or team leaders, each person gives a pot of wine. We have seized a lot of wine. We will send it to everyone to warm up our bodies."
He looked at his personal soldiers and said, "Go and get me a pot of wine."
Chen Leng stood up: "In the past, the brothers of the auxiliary soldiers helped the soldiers fight. Today, let's turn around. Every auxiliary soldier who drives piles and builds a floating bridge must have a soldier guarding him with a shield."
All the generals stood up with fists: "God of the General!"
Chen Leng walked outside the tent and said loudly: "I had already ordered the Huotou Army to cook and add a meal tonight. All the first batch of people who went up to build a floating bridge and fill their stomachs with me. After eating, we can conquer the Bohai country. Can't we conquer an Anshui River?!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
At the same time, it is seventy miles north of Pingguang City.
In a fight, under the moonlight, you can see the dense corpses on the earth. The smell of blood is so strong that the wind can't take it away again and again. The smell in everyone's nose cannot dissipate for a long time. There are broken limbs and broken arms everywhere, and there are eyes open everywhere. The smell of blood mixed with the incontinence smell that people would not control before death. This is the smell of the battlefield.
Meng Changan raised his hand to wipe away the blood that was fascinating his eyes, turned his head to look at the scimitar stuck on his shoulder, and pulled the knife down and threw it away. The personal soldiers wanted to come over and bandage him. Meng Changan turned over and pulled off his left shoulder armor that had been cut off, and said loudly: "Walk while walking, wrap, blow the horns, and keep moving forward!"
Liu Hao, one of the six gun generals beside him, advised: "General, the brothers have been fighting for almost a day and a night, so let the brothers take a break."
"We can wait for time when we get outside Pingguang City, but time won't wait for us."
He looked into the darkness in the south, as if he could see the silly boy's honest smile.
Lengzi, wait for me.
On the south bank of Anshui River, thousands of auxiliary soldiers were full and encouraged each other. They carried a large amount of bridge-building supplies to the river. Chen Leng took off the black iron armor, wearing only a single coat, carrying a few pieces of wood and moving forward with the auxiliary soldiers.
"Brothers, who did not take a wife?"
Chen Leng shouted.
Someone replied loudly: "General, I don't have a wife yet!"
"That's easy!"
Chen Leng pointed to the other side of the river: "We are killing all the men in Bohai Country. We will marry the girls home, let them see what life is like with the men in Daning, and let them see how good Daning is than Bohai!"
A burst of laughter.
As soon as he rushed to the shore with his wood, the sound of trumpets on the other side of the shore sounded, and there was a thumping sound of water on the river. It was a heavy crossbow shot from the bed crossbow on the other side. The crossbow was as thick as an arm, and it could almost knock people into two pieces when hitting people. However, the Bohai people couldn't see clearly how Ningren's floating bridge was built at night. They just fired blindly, but the range was not so far.
The auxiliary soldiers rolled their legs and rushed down the river. In order to cheer each other up, they sang Daning's war song, and the singing seemed to tear the entire night sky apart.
At the beginning, the bridge was built on the south side of the river bank very quickly. Five floating bridges began to be built at the same time. The sound of pile driving was connected into a thump. The soldiers standing in the river held wooden stakes, not only had to endure the coldness of the river, but also had to endure the vibration of the heavy hammer hitting the wooden stakes. The people who had fallen into the water were tied together with ropes. Although the water flow was not particularly urgent, if someone was washed away, everyone could save them if they had a rope.
The sound of piles and the singing made the night tremble.
The Bohai people on the north bank of the river were screaming like crazy. The torches illuminated the entire north bank. A large number of archers began to gather at the river, and the refugees who had fired their bows were driven to the river.
Chen Ran walked forward with the refugees. Not far away, a refugee was squeezed to the ground. Someone reached out to help him up. The Bohai soldiers next to him were just a stick: "Difficult, are you afraid of death? Let's go forward quickly. Ningren kills you and you can't survive."
Chen Ran was anxious. He had been here for three days, but he still couldn't instigate refugee riots. He knew that Chen Leng must have no way to wait any longer before he began to force the construction of the floating bridge. Because he failed to complete the task, how many Daning's brothers would be shot to death in the river by arrows?
Seeing the refugee falling down, Chen Ran suddenly became anxious: "What are you doing!"
He roared with the words of the Bohai people, rushed over to protect the beheaded refugee and shouted loudly: "Don't think we don't know that Ning people will not kill refugees. You are the ones who want to kill us. If you dare not go to war with Ningjun, let us go to the front to die. You took our food, but when you fight, you can't protect us, and you still want us to die!"
The Bohai soldier who was beating people was stunned for a moment, and threw a wooden stick at Chen Ran's head: "Are you looking for death?"
Chen Ran gritted his teeth and did not hide. The stick hit his forehead. The blood flowed down in an instant. His head was dizzy and he couldn't stand steadily. He reached out to support a refugee beside him and shouted: "They soldiers have three meals a day, and all three meals are dry meals. That's the food we grow! But as for us, we only have a bowl of porridge a day. Now we are going to fight. They are full but dare not go up, but let us die!"
Sumihiko squeezed over from a distance, trying to protect Chen Ran, but immediately shouted after hearing the shouting: "We must have a full meal too! Let's fight, we must have a dry meal too, and we must have a full meal before we can fight!"
The Bohai soldier who had taken action before was pushed away by everyone and suddenly became furious: "Do you want to rebel?"
Sumihiko saw the opportunity and kicked the soldier in the back from behind. When the soldier threw him forward, Chen Ran's dagger slashed across the soldier's neck because he was too fast and he was crowded with people. No one noticed the flash of the dagger. After the soldier fell down, he twitched and turned over. Only after he found that he was about to die.
"Killed!"
Chen Ran shouted: "Someone killed the soldiers! Everyone, run away."
Let the refugees riot - they dare not to fight to kill the soldiers, but of course they dare to let them run away, and they will never even be willing to run behind others. The people in front are crowded, and the people behind do not know what happened, but are infected by panic and run away. Panic spreads faster than the plague.
"The government army killed people!"
Chen Ran took the opportunity to shout again, and the scout Ning Jun who was mixed in the crowd shouted.
"Run quickly, the government army has started killing people!"
"They want to kill us all, and there is no food!"
"Someone surrendered to Ning Jun, and the Bohai King ordered us to be killed!"
"Everyone, run away, the archers of the government army are heading towards us. They are not trying to kill Ningren, but to shoot us to death!"
"Kill the archer!"
"Kill the archer! Otherwise everyone will die!"
Screams come one after another.
Humans are group animals.
Under the instigation and guidance of Ning Jun scouts, a large number of refugees rushed towards the archers. They didn't know what they were going to do, but they couldn't die in vain.
Hundreds of thousands of refugees started to mess up from one point, but soon, the chaos became a large area.
South Bank.
Hearing the shout, Chen Leng looked at the north shore, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Everyone work harder, the Bohai people are in chaos, they are in chaos!"
When he shouted this sentence in a hoarse voice, Chen Leng couldn't help but want to cry.
Chapter completed!
