【1838】Ningyuan offensive and defensive battle (12)
"Well, I know, I know that you have done enough. Next, it's up to me~" Yuan Chonghuan said firmly.
Ma Xiaoquan took a breath and stopped talking.
At this moment, a very familiar voice suddenly sounded in my heart, but I hadn't heard it for a long time.
"Ma Xiaoquan, you are too messy..."
Ma Xiaoquan, who had just closed his eyes to rest due to fatigue, suddenly opened his eyes after hearing this voice.
"Yuan..." Ma Xiaoquan shouted excitedly.
Yuan Chonghuan, who had just turned around, was startled by Ma Xiaoquan's sudden shout. He quickly turned back, squatted in front of Ma Xiaoquan, and asked with concern: "Brother Ma, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you, are you okay?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said, "Brother Yuan, I'm fine."
"Then what is the 'source' you just called?"
"Oh, I mean that's it. I was so excited that I didn't explain clearly, haha..."
"So that's it? Why that's it? Brother Ma, what did you think of?"
Ma Xiaoquan continued to lie: "I was thinking that Nurhaci saw the weakness in the south of our city by attacking us like this, so..."
Yuan Chonghuan nodded: "Yes, that's enough, Brother Ma, you have a good rest~"
"Hmm~~"
...
After Yuan Chonghuan walked away, Yuan's voice immediately sounded in Ma Xiaoquan's mind: "You really know how to make it up..."
Ma Xiaoquan responded in his heart: "Nonsense, could it be that I said there is a source of time in my body, can you talk to me? By the way, why did you wake up suddenly?"
"I don't know. Anyway, I woke up suddenly, but I still can't hold on for too long..."
"In that case, why don't you take this opportunity to help me regain my strength?"
"Hmph, I knew you would say that. Go find an egg and eat it, and you should be able to regain your strength. However, I suggest you not to be too showy. After all, everyone can see your previous state.
You suddenly become lively and vigorous again, which will definitely arouse others' suspicion."
Ma Xiaoquan sighed in his heart: "Then it seems that even if I recover my strength, I can't continue fighting, right?"
"Hmm~"
"Then the war is so intense now. Where can I get the eggs you mentioned? It's impossible to call someone and ask him to find me a boiled egg, right?"
"Yes, this seems unlikely..."
Ma Xiaoquan sighed in his heart: "Forget it, I'll just stay here obediently. Anyway, I participated in the Ningyuan offensive and defensive battle, and I have no regrets. As for the result, historically, I should have won."
"Yeah, that's right. It's good to stay here and take it slow~"
Having said that, Ma Xiaoquan was still a little unwilling. He asked Yuan again: "Yuan, when you wake up, can you restore one of my abilities, whether it is immortality or fire control, at least one can be restored?"
"No, in my current state, it is impossible to restore your abilities."
"Then tell me, when can I recover?"
"Well, according to this progress, it should take several years or even more than ten years."
"How many years or more? Isn't it?"
"Otherwise, why didn't you think about the consequences when you broke the rules, and now you are urging me?"
"That's a special situation for me. Besides, since you have some fragments of the space soul, it's okay to travel through space. At worst, after I complete these tasks, I can help you find the other half of the space soul.
It’s okay if you don’t.”
"You put it lightly. Your mission can last for more than ten years or even decades. I've waited until your day lilies were cold. Okay, I won't tell you anymore. I'll continue to sleep~"
After Yuan said the last words in Ma Xiaoquan's mind, there was no sound. Ma Xiaoquan called twice tentatively, but there was no response.
"Haha..." Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly and shook his head, then raised his head and looked straight ahead.
At this time, someone else suggested that they pull out a few long chains, burn them red with fire, and then throw them under the city to attack the Jurchen soldiers climbing the wall.
I have to say that this is a really good idea, but of course, it is definitely a bad idea for the Jurchen Army.
The north wind whistled, and several long, red-hot chains were thrown back and forth on the south city wall. Wherever they were thrown, screams would be heard.
Ma Xiaoquan couldn't help but feel goosebumps on his arms as he listened to the bursts of screams below the city.
Under the city, the ignited quilts and cotton clothes continued to burn, and on the city wall, several long red-hot chains appeared from time to time, cooperating with the harvesting of human lives.
...
Nurhachi was completely anxious. Seeing his soldiers being burned to death one by one, being thrown by long chains and falling down the city to death, he roared and ordered the entire army to step up the attack and capture the south of the city at all costs.
However, what Nurhaci did not expect was that his orders seemed a little pale after the Jurchen army suffered large-scale casualties.
Nurhaci immediately realized that the order he gave was somewhat inappropriate, but the battle had already reached this point. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if he didn't continue the fight? In a mere small town of Ningyuan, with a population of 10,000, the Jurchen Army's 60,000-strong army actually fought
Not coming down?
Nurhaci didn’t believe it.
...
Yuan Chonghuan stood on the south wall of the city and saw Nurhaci. He prayed secretly in his heart, praying that Nurhaci would never issue a death order to attack again, because the south of the city was already overloaded. If the attack continued, the south of the city would be destroyed.
For some unknown reason, Yuan Chonghuan's prayer "revealed". Seeing the heavy casualties, Nurhachi recalled most of his troops and began to rest temporarily.
When Yuan Chonghuan on the city wall saw the Jurchen army retreating, he did not dare to take it lightly. He immediately ordered: "Everyone takes this opportunity to make some supplies quickly. Take what you have, and eat a few mouthfuls of steamed buns when you are hungry...
"
Yuan Chonghuan walked up to Ma Xiaoquan and asked: "Brother Ma, take a drink of water and take this opportunity to eat something. What do you want to eat?"
Ma Xiaoquan sighed secretly in his heart, if only Brother Yuan had asked him earlier.
"Boiled eggs? Are there any?"
Yuan Chonghuan was stunned, but he didn't refuse. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll order someone to get it right now~"
Ma Xiaoquan sighed again in his heart. If he had known, he would have let Yuan hold on for a while and not fall asleep. At least, he would have let him wait for him to eat an egg. It would not be too late to fall asleep again after his body recovered.
...
After a while, the boiled eggs were actually brought.
Yuan Chonghuan stuffed the boiled egg into Ma Xiaoquan's hand and said: "It's just warm and comfortable to eat. Brother Ma, I'm sorry, it's just one."
Ma Xiaoquan took the boiled eggs and felt moved in his heart.
Before he could thank him, Yuan Chonghuan turned around and left.
