Chapter 410 Seduction and abstinence feudal warlord 034
In the afternoon when Sheng Nuan returned to Yunzhou City, Cui Jiulang came to visit... She didn't see him, and then he was driven away by Ma Shuo.
Ma Shuo naturally wanted to stay with his marshal, but he knew that the marshal gave his cousin to him because of trust, so he stayed at Xu's house every day.
Because the Xu Jiajun and the New Army joined forces, the battle on the frontline began to reverse. Wave after wave of pirate attacks were pushed back, and the momentum became weaker and weaker... But the morale of the defenders was boosted.
Xu Zhengqing became the commander-in-chief of the three armies and led the guards to drive away the pirates...
But just when the momentum was good, a defense in Linchuan near the front line was sneakily attacked by pirates... A group of pirates quickly passed through the Linchuan area and headed toward Yunzhou.
There is a garrison left in Yunzhou City, but the strength of the garrison is limited. The pirates who came to attack had received a secret report and came to Yunzhou City.
They knew that the brother and woman of the current guard army coach Xu Zhengqing were in Yunzhou...
Sheng Nuan asked Ma Shuo to ask for help from the Qinghe Army in the rear, and at the same time evacuate the city residents to count the troops... The Qinggang and other civil organizations also participated. Some helped evacuate the city residents, while others were responsible for participating in the defense.
But at this time, more people are unwilling to leave.
If Yunzhou City can be defended, then they don't have to leave... If Yunzhou is captured, where can they go?
What's more, according to the news from Linchuan, it was only a small group of pirates who broke through the blockade and attacked Yunzhou. It was unlikely to happen, and the Linchuan Army had already sent troops to pursue it.
Because of this, even if Sheng Nuan asked Ma Shuo to evacuate as much as possible, only a few were willing to leave...
But Sheng Nuan knew that things were not that simple.
Mu Liang, the commander-in-chief of the Qinghe Army, refused to send troops... The three provinces of Yunmu and Mu were prosperous, and Xu Zhengqing had always been strong with the Xu family's army. Mu Liang also wanted to wait until Yunzhou was attacked and Xu Zhengqing was frustrated to get involved and carve up the Xu family's power.
The Linchuan Army's so-called pursuit support was also deliberately delayed.
They all want to wait for an opportunity to bite and cannibalize Yunmu while Xu Zhengqing is fighting against the pirates...even if Xu Zhengqing is currently protecting everyone in the rear.
At this moment, Sheng Nuan finally understood why Xu Zhengqing hesitated repeatedly in the original plot and did not send troops to join forces with the new army and missed the opportunity, because he knew that this would be the case.
Once he sends troops, not only will there be no help, but he is also likely to be attacked from both sides!
Those warlords are like greedy beasts. Compared with their family, country and the world, they want to feed themselves with blood and flesh... That is their deep-rooted nature.
Xu Zhengqing was fighting against the pirates, but at the rear, there were countless people hoping that he would not come back alive...
That afternoon, the group of pirates arrived in Yunzhou.
Compared with the pirates, the firepower and weapons of the warlords at this time were really far behind. If not, Xu Zhengqing would not have had such a difficult time on the front line.
In the same way, there were guards in Yunzhou City, but because Xu Zhengqing took away most of the main troops, it was too easy for Linchuan to be broken through... The remaining troops and firepower were not as good as the new weapons of the pirates.
How long can it last?
It wasn't until the sound of gunfire rang out that the people in Yunzhou City who were used to the prosperity and comfort knew what they were about to face. Everyone hid in the house in panic, feeling the ground tremble again and again in the gunfire.
Finally... half of the city gate was blown down, and the group of pirates broke into the city.
Ma Shuo and the escort team temporarily formed by civil organizations such as the Xu Jiajun and the Qinggang were already planning to resist desperately, and then they heard a nodding and bowed man next to the pirates shouting at the top of his voice.
"If everyone resists again, the city will be massacred..."
Ma Shuo's hand holding the gun was trembling slightly, and the soldiers behind him were also covered in blood and their eyes were red.
They are willing to resist until the last second and die...but they are afraid that these pirates will massacre the city.
The city was full of unarmed people.
The next moment, the pirates' guns were pointed at the residential area not far from the city gate... The leader of the pirates pointed at Ma Shuo and others, and said in blunt Huaguo dialect: "Put down your weapons."
There was a cry from the house over there.
Ma Shuo's cheek twitched a few times, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then said: "Put down your weapon."
He knew that if they put down their weapons, they would only die...but if they continued to resist, the civilians would suffer.
In the end, the guards at the city gate lowered their weapons one after another and were surrounded by the pirates' guns.
The Hua countryman next to the pirates turned pale. He squinted at the pirates, trembled violently, and then shouted at the top of his voice: "Hand over Sheng Nuan, hand over Xu Yunqian, and you can live."
Ma Shuo sneered.
Miss Sheng is right. These pirates are retreating steadily in front of the guards commanded by their commander. They have reached the last moment. They are just resisting... If the Linchuan army is not too useless, in less than two days, the main force of the pirates will be defeated.
will be expelled or even annihilated.
They were anxious, so they went deep alone to catch Miss Sheng and the second young master at all costs, hoping to use them to threaten the commander-in-chief.
Ma Shuo sneered: "Unfortunately, Miss Sheng returned to her hometown two days ago... Second Young Master Xu is at the front line of the guard. If you want to catch him, go to the front line."
The pug carefully translated for the pirate leader. The next moment, the pirate leader sneered and said stiffly: "Not there? It doesn't matter... I'll look for it myself. If I can't find it for a moment, I'll slaughter the whole city. If I can't find it for a day, I'll kill it."
A day of slaughter!"
Opposite me, Ma Shuo suddenly froze, and then became angry: "What a fucking pirate..."
He had clearly said just now that they would not massacre the city if they surrendered, but now he turned around and reneged on his promise.
The pirate leader pointed at Ma Shuo: "Except him...kill everyone."
The next moment, the peripheral pirate machine guns were set up and pointed at the surrounded defenders...
Far or near, people hiding in the house saw what was happening over there through the cracks in the windows, covering their mouths desperately and crying in fear but not daring to make any sound.
The once bustling long street was completely silent. In the biting cold wind, the defenders who were pointed at by the pirates' machine guns supported each other, and no one retreated...
The pirate leader raised his hand and was about to wave it down. At this moment, a female voice sounded: "Stop."
Ma Shuo froze suddenly, his eyes widening in disbelief.
Miss Sheng? Didn’t he already have Miss Sheng sent away?
Why is she still here? What if she falls into the hands of pirates...
At the other end of the long street, a woman wearing a smoky blue cheongsam and a white fox fur shawl walked out slowly, facing the pirates opposite, with a calm expression.
Sheng Nuan glanced at Ma Shuo and smiled: "Adjutant Ma, I told you that you can't judge them based on their humanity... they just look like humans."
Ma Shuo clenched his hands into fists and his eyes were red: "Miss Sheng."
Sheng Nuan looked at him: "If he asks you to follow me, you have to listen to me."
The pirate leader stepped forward with lustful eyes: "Ah, it's Miss Sheng...it's great to see you."
Sheng Nuan looked coldly at the pirates opposite: "What you want is me...don't hurt innocent people."
The pirate leader frowned.
Sheng Nuan continued: "If you touch anyone here, I will kill myself immediately."
These pirates wanted to use her to threaten Xu Zhengqing, so naturally they would not let her die easily.
Sheng Nuan's tone and expression were very calm, but the pirate leader instantly realized that this woman from the Flower Country was serious...she was really not afraid of death.
"Of course, I don't want to hurt Miss Sheng."
The pirate leader pretended to be polite: "I just came because of your reputation... You can also ask Xu Shuai to come back to pick up Miss Sheng."
After speaking, he waved his hand: "Disarm them and lock them up."
After Ma Shuo's prisoners of war were taken away, the pirate leader looked back at Sheng Nuan with lustful eyes: "I really can't wait to see the beauty of the Queen of the Flower Kingdom..."
When Xu Zhengqing finds out that his woman is in the hands of these people, I don't know if he can hold the battle line and not give in...
On the long and silent street, people hiding in the houses on both sides looked at the scene outside through the cracks in the windows.
A group of murderous pirates walked towards the city. At the front, a woman wearing a smoky blue cheongsam was pointed at by the pirates with a gun. She looked calm and indifferent...
