"In the Five Kings Rebellion, the Chen Lian family was wiped out, and I was the only one who survived. All my relatives were lost, and I was alone for more than twenty years. When I arrived, I just married a beautiful wife, and this year I got a beloved son. For me,
To put it bluntly, the lives of your beloved wife and children are ten times more than your own, so how can you abandon them and cherish yourself." Chen Lian saw it clearly and thought about it. There was no trace of fear in his heart, only the reluctance to let go of his wife and children.
He stood up from his seat, bowed to Jiao Ming, and said again: "Thank you for your love, brother." Then he picked up the wine cup and drank it all.
Jiao Ming slapped his head, a trace of regret appeared on his face, and he shouted: "I forgot, I forgot--" But he forgot that Chen Lian's family and children all lived in the county. Then he looked at the calm face
Chen Lian, Jiao Ming showed deep respect on his face. In order to repay his kindness, he did not hesitate to commit suicide, but in order to save his wife and children, he was willing to give up his own life. It seemed that he was somewhat like-minded.
"General Chen, don't worry. The Song King's army will sweep Wei County tomorrow, and the east city will be leveled soon." Ignoring Xu You who seemed to be stunned, Jiao Mingchang smiled and said to Chen Lian: "It is easy for the army to capture the county."
I won't let you get in trouble with your wife and children."
Even if he was lying, it would be a good thing to be able to temporarily stabilize Chen Lian.
"You...you...actually..." Xu You pointed at Jiao Ming with trembling fingers, and then turned to Chen Lian, with a look of shock on his face, and he couldn't say anything for a long time. But this interruption
But it just gave Chen Lian time to think.
Ants are still greedy for life, "If my wife and children are not affected..."
Jiao Ming's eyes looked at Xu You as if he were looking at a clown, and the indifferent smile returned to his face again. "Xu You! Who do you think is willing to take his life?" As long as it can ensure Chen Lian's
His wife and children are safe. I believe that Chen Lian will definitely make a smart choice. Jiao Ming is 70% sure that he can force him to submit.
"Rebellion, Jiao Ming has rebelled. Someone come and capture it for me -" Xu You suddenly jumped up as if he had come back to his senses, shouting loudly at the top of his lungs.
"Whoa - whoosh -" came the sound of iron armor and willow leaves colliding with each other, and from time to time there was the sound of stepping on puddles. Then Jiao Hong was seen leading dozens of people into the big building.
The tent, spears and swords were all aimed at Xu You.
As if his neck was being strangled violently, Xu You's face flushed red, and his angry roars stopped instantly. He glanced at the group of people in the tent with angry eyes, and then he slowly calmed down.
Looking at Jiao Ming with cold eyes, "Prefect Yang is so blind that he asked you to guard Fanyu Mountain——"
He had heard Jiao Ming's words of persuading Chen Lian to surrender just now, and he had heard them warmly. The Song King's army must be preparing to cross the Qishan Mountains to attack Dongcheng County, threatening the rear of the counter-rebellion army.
Although it is not known how many Song troops came, the loss of at least several places in Wei County is inevitable.
I can only regret that I failed to see the wild ambitions of the Jiao brothers. I thought he was a kind man and came to the death banquet happily, so that the five thousand soldiers of Fanyu Mountain played no role in this battle.
arrive……
"Bah!" He pulled out the sword from his waist with his backhand. Although Xu You knew that he would definitely die, he did not hesitate to wait for death. His self-esteem did not allow him to humblely beg for surrender to the Jiao brothers, so he could only fight to the death to drag down a few of them.
If you are rebellious, just drag a few of them and hit the road together.
He took a step back and kicked over several tables filled with wine and meat. When the tables he turned over were thrown at Jiao Hong and others, he turned over and pounced on Jiao Ming at the moment when they were blocked. There was definitely a chance outside the big tent.
There are also many close associates of the Jiao family brothers, and he is destined to be unable to escape. So, see if you can pull Jiao Ming, the culprit, to be your backup before you die. If not, just keep fighting for a while.
Jiao Ming was alert the moment Xu You unsheathed his sword with his backhand. When he saw Xu Youjing rushing toward him, he was shocked but also secretly admired him. He was worthy of being a figure from the Forbidden Army of the City of Gods. He really was a dead prince.
Loyalty.
Then he threw out the wine cup in his hand, jumped back, and leaned his back against the map hanging in front of the tent. He watched Xu You being slightly blocked by the wine cup, and then the sword light continued to stab him, until
When he was approaching, he shrank back and moved to the right hand of the main seat where the clothes and weapons were placed. He stretched out his hand and pulled out the long sword on the sword stand, and then the spinning force hit Xu You's second sword thrust.
"Dang--" There was a crisp sound. Xu You's first sword missed, and after piercing the curtain, the sword he swung directly with his backhand could compare with the sword Jiao Ming used to spin and charge up. His mouth was immediately numb.
I almost gave up.
Before Xu You had time to draw the third sword, he heard a sharp sound of "chichi" behind his head. He smiled miserably in his heart, "Drink-" he roared and thrust out the long sword in his hand with all his strength.
The sharp pain in the back of his heart did not make his sword-holding hand tremble for even a moment. Jiao Hong held a three-hand crossbow in his hand. At first, Xu You used a few tricks to daunt him, but he reacted and immediately killed him.
"When--" Jiao Ming's internal energy surged into his arms, and he slashed with his backhand. The sword tips collided with each other, and with a 'bang' sound, both swords broke into two pieces.
At this time, Jiao Hong, who was raising his sword, had already caught up and slashed with one strike, right on the spine of Xu You's back. Xu You, who had already been penetrated by three iron arrows, had no power to resist the strike.
Jiao Hong slashed out with his sword, followed by a kick, causing Xu You to fall to the ground.
The scream of "Ah——" hadn't ended yet, but with a flash of cold light, Jiao Ming broke the sword in his hand and cut off Xu You's head.
Without throwing away the broken sword, Jiao Ming turned around and stared directly at Chen Lian, "General Chen, it's time to make a decision." On the sharp edge of the sword, bright red blood stained the middle part of the sword body, a streak of bright red.
The blood was flowing down the blade of the sword pointing slantingly at the ground, dripping on the ground.
This person still needs to push hard, otherwise, if Chen Lian's temper is allowed to prevail, there may not be any results tomorrow.
"Chen Lian... didn't dare to resist the king of Song, but he didn't dare to act rashly without seeing his wife and children." Cold sweat oozed from Chen Lian's forehead, and dripped down his hair. Under the threat of death, he
He still persisted in protecting his wife and children.
Jiao Ming frowned slightly, then relaxed, "That's fine. Mr. Jiao won't embarrass you. But you must order your soldiers to give up resistance and abandon their weapons and surrender."
"Can!"
That's right. Jiao's face relaxed a little. Then he turned to look at Jiao Hong, "Second brother, you rush to inform General Zhu immediately that it's time to take action..."
"I'll go right now -" Sheathing the sword, Jiao Hong accepted the order with a solemn expression.
=Dividing Line As early as half an hour before the banquet at the camp in front of Fanyu Mountain, Zhu Biao rushed to the small valley with several opposing mountains less than ten miles away from Fanyu Mountain with his 30,000 men.
There are 30,000 troops and five battalions. Except for the soldiers who cannot move due to Xiao Shao Shao, all the soldiers are organized into groups.
Maintain every ounce of heat in your body.
Although they marched in the rain for more than three days, and their whole bodies were already too cold to emit a trace of heat, under the strict supervision of the officers, the Song Army, which still maintained its military establishment, successfully completed this 'order'
.
Under this kind of heavy rain, a group of people crowded together. Zhu Biao knew that it was impossible to withstand the cold and dampness of the rain, but as long as there were more people, there would always be a hint of warmth, which was better than nothing! And in his heart
Warmth and action are also effective.
Three and a half days, which is not a short period of time, the entire army was unable to eat a mouthful of hot food. Regardless of whether they were soldiers, officers or generals, the heat in everyone's body was constantly decreasing.
As for the eventual decline in physical strength and the emergence of large-scale epidemics, the situation would still be the same if it were not for the fact that the military rations prepared in advance were all cooked food, such as flour cakes and dried meat, which were still edible after being soaked by rain.
Worse.
Judging from Zhu Biao's current strength, he still feels a little tired, not to mention the remaining people. If the troops were not restrained by officers, and there was really nowhere to go in the deep mountains and old forests, I am afraid that they would have already
It's such a mess.
However, although it has maintained a relatively complete organization, its combat power cannot be overestimated. This sudden spring rain wiped out at least half of the Song Army's combat power. If there were no internal support from the Jiao brothers, I believe this would be the case.
The troops sent out were destined to be defeated. Even if they could withdraw to Guangchang, the loss of troops would be staggering.
"Hey -" After wiping the rain on his face, Zhu Biao couldn't help but dedicated the most vicious curse to God. The cloudy day turned into light rain, the light rain turned into moderate rain, and now the moderate rain turned into heavy rain. It was really...
So fucked up.
"Wish you handsome, wish you handsome——" Liu Zhuo ran all the way, shouting and shouting, his voice full of endless joy. "Wish you handsome, Jiao Hong is here."
"Jiao Hong!" Zhu Biaoteng, who just sighed and cursed God, suddenly stood up and said, "Lead the way." It was really timely. Jiao Hong's coming this time must have brought good things to Fanyu Mountain.
News, troops will be deployed soon.
"Zhu Shuai——" The time has turned to the afternoon, and under the gray sky, Jiao Hong recognized Zhu Biao at a glance even though he was far away.
"I report to Commander-in-Chief, my brother has killed Xu You and convinced Chen Lian." He briefly told what happened at the banquet.
"So it's time to take action now?"
"Please Commander Zhu send troops -" Jiao Hong said respectfully, suddenly feeling that Zhu Biao's eyes were so sharp.
"You lead the way." Zhu Biao's eyes were sharp and he looked at Jiao Hong carefully. He did not ignore any detail in his words. He was not telling lies. "Send my order quickly, and the whole army will move forward quickly - march into Fanfan."
Yushan!”
The news of marching into Fanyu Mountain immediately caused a sensation in the valley. Whether it was the Song Army who was not sick or the Song Army who was sick, each of them knew very well what "marching into Fanyu Mountain" meant to them.
.
That was not only a victory in the war, but also meant having hot food and a dry and warm place to stay. Being able to say goodbye to the pale hard dough pancakes and increasingly chewy jerky, and have a steaming bowl of meat.
soup, live in a house or tent where there is no longer a drop of cold rain, and then light up a bonfire!
All of this made the thirty thousand Song troops now full of energy.
In the system column, the morale of the army jumped like crazy from 52 points to 81 points - (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
