The Jin army marched down two streets with lightning speed, but the Goguryeo soldiers were not without their strengths. The entire city was always on alert. Even if the fighting was not heavy these days, there were still people who were on guard.
Therefore, the Jin army's offensive was quickly contained, but the shouts of killing still rose to the sky, and the entire city was once again plunged into flames of war, just like the previous siege.
The whole city woke up, and the common people closed their doors and waited. In fact, they only wanted a result at this time, whether they lost or won, there must be a result.
As the Jin army said in the streets and alleys these days, the Liaodong area is inherently integrated with the Central Plains. The Gao family lived in Liaodong, built Goguryeo, and respected the Jin Dynasty as the master, so they should do their duty as a vassal;
In addition, the emperor has been asking the Jin army to spread bad words about the Gao family in the past few days, saying that the Gao family's royal court is cruel and unkind and imposes excessive taxes...
Many people don't say it with their mouths, but they agree with it in their hearts.
Therefore, they did not resent Liaodong's return to the Jin Dynasty at this time. Anyway, as long as there was a result, they did not want to stay at home anymore.
Although winter has come now, they have not yet had time to store enough firewood. What will they do to survive the winter this year?
They have to go out.
Prince Gao Er was awakened and rushed to the council chamber. Nai Sa and the generals had already arrived. Except for Nai Sa, everyone was a little confused and asked, "Why did the Jin Kingdom suddenly launch a large-scale attack?"
"Do they know that we are imprisoning the envoy?"
While everyone was discussing, they couldn't help but peek at the sophomore prince.
The second-year prince pursed his lips and asked: "How is the front line?"
Yuan Yi reported: "Three streets were lost in the east of the city, and two were lost in the south of the city. Now they are all in a stalemate."
As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the army ran in and said: "Prince, a large number of Jin troops were found on Heng Er Street, and several highlands were captured by the Jin troops."
Prince Gaoer's expression changed, and he spoke almost at the same time as Nasa, "They are going to cut off our connection with the east of the city."
Nesa immediately said: "Prince, we must not let them occupy Heng Second Street, otherwise we will lose control of Dongcheng.
If they lose control of the East City, what's the point of only occupying the southern half of the city?
At that time, we can only abandon Anshi City and escape.
Prince Gaoer immediately mobilized troops to support Henger Street, and then he became surprised and wondered, "Why did the Jin army suddenly attack in a large scale?"
How many hours did he put Bai Shan in the dungeon?
Thinking of this, he was shocked and immediately ordered his bodyguard, "Go and see Bai Shan in the dungeon."
The personal guard took the order and left, but came back two-quarters of an hour later to report, "Bai Shan is still in the dungeon and has not escaped. The rest of the envoy group is also in the guest house, and no one is missing."
Prince Gao Er had already arranged all the people he could arrange to the front line. He sat quietly, puzzled, why did the Jin army suddenly attack?
Are you impatient to wait for his reply and feel that the time is taking too long?
Prince Gao Er rubbed his forehead and asked, "What do you think of Nusa?"
Nesa said calmly: "Prince, our forces are now evenly matched. Please come to the front line in person to boost morale. As long as we hold on this time and delay it for another ten days, this difficulty can be solved."
Prince Gao Er quickly asked: "What's the explanation?"
He Sa said: "The weather is getting colder. If my calculation is correct, in ten days or at most twelve days, the first snow will fall, and it will be a heavy snow."
He said: "The Jin army is attacking from a distance, and their supplies are far inferior to ours, and they don't have enough food and grass. So as long as we hold on, they will retreat if they can't attack for a long time."
Prince Gao Er hesitated, so Nisa knelt on the ground, lowered his head and said, "I would like to serve the prince and fight on the front line in person. Please come in person."
The second-year prince stood up and said with firm eyes: "Okay!"
At the same time, the emperor on the other side had already appeared on the front line with clanging armor. As soon as he arrived, he saw Bai Shan and the people in the medical tent shuttled back, arranging the soldiers sent down from the front under the eaves while treating their injuries.
At the same time, you have to avoid the stray arrows that occasionally fly over.
The emperor frowned slightly, looked at the houses in front and behind, and said to Yin Li: "Bring some money and requisition all the houses nearby. I want to use them to house the wounded soldiers."
Yin Li said "Yes" and was about to make arrangements when Bai Erlang immediately ran up on his horse and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, let me do this. I am in charge of the medical account."
The emperor saw him then, looked him up and down, and saw that he was wearing a cloak and a conspicuous red robe underneath. He immediately got angry and said, "This is a war. Why are you wearing such conspicuous clothes? Where is your armor? You are not afraid of that.
Will the arrow be inserted into you?"
Bai Erlang: "...Your Majesty, this is my official robe."
When traveling with the emperor, what would he wear if he didn't wear official robes?
And his cloak is black, it covers him instantly. As for the armor, "I don't have armor."
The emperor turned to Gu Zhong and said, "Choose a set of armor that I don't often use and send it to my consort later."
Then he said to Bai Erlang: "Why don't you go quickly? What are you doing in a daze?"
When Bai Erlang heard this, he was happy. He immediately ran back with others to get some money, and then knocked on the door. There was no one in many houses, because this street has many shops in the front and houses in the back. Many people do not live there.
here.
So Bai Erlang directly had the door broken down and requisitioned it directly after entering. When he encountered a house with people, he would give money to requisition the front shop and let them close the door in the backyard. They would not go to the backyard.
He doesn't care whether people agree or not. This is the case in war. It's not up to people to slowly weigh their choices.
Bai Erlang commandeered the house, turned around and took his people to carry all the wounded soldiers outside into the house. He also asked people to light a brazier and prepare quilts and other items to keep out the cold.
The wounded soldier, who was almost freezing outside, felt better now. He was injured and took medicine. After being roasted by the fire, he took medicine again and fell asleep.
Bai Erlang ran into another shop and saw Man Bao letting people remove the door panel and holding down a soldier who was wailing. He was holding a saw to cut off the soldier's arm with sweat on his forehead.
Most of his hand was cut off by a knife, and it could not be saved. In order to stop the bleeding, this part of the forearm could only be amputated.
Bai Erlang immediately rushed forward, held the person down, and asked: "Isn't there Ma Fei San?"
Man Bao said: "I gave him some food, but he still screamed. Ma Fei Powder doesn't seem to have much effect on him. I don't dare to take heavy medicine. I've used needles to relieve the pain, but it will definitely still hurt. You guys press it first."
Stop, I'll move faster."
Several soldiers came over to help and held the man down. Man Bao and Su Banxia quickly started sawing together. After a long time, Man Bao saw off his hand and began to apply medicine to stop the bleeding.
Seeing that his face was pale in pain, he asked Su Banxia, "Have you prepared the painkillers yet?"
Su Banxia shook his head, "There is little water here. We need to fetch water from far away, so it is a bit slow."
Bai Erlang thought for a while and then said: "I'll go get a few more people to help you."
Man Bao nodded, and after this injury was dealt with, he went to deal with the next one.
