207: Xiaocheng chaos (forty-seven) [asking for monthly votes]
When the young man passed by, the atmosphere in the main tent was solemn.
When the step-brother saw that he was late and only wore arm guards, shoulder pads and skirt armor, he couldn't help but said in a strange tone: "You don't even do anything when I ask you to do it, and you leave military affairs to others. You are also a general after all, so this
How can I set an example for the people below me?"
The upward arc of the young man disappeared.
Just as he was about to answer, the old general sitting at the top had already sternly scolded his eccentric biological son. He scolded the sworn brother until his face turned green and pale, and he had to apologize to the young man in public.
The matter is over.
On the face of the young man, he said he didn't mind, but in his heart he couldn't help laughing - laughing at the fact that this step-brother only cared about food and not fights.
Even though you know you can't take advantage, you still use your words to provoke someone.
Why bother?
He took his seat.
Asked: "Father, who is coming?"
When talking about business, the old general showed some worry, sighed and replied: "They are just a group of little thieves, nothing to be afraid of."
Young people will know the subtext as soon as they hear it.
The number of thieves was not large, but they were able to alarm him. The person leading this group must be a troublesome and courageous warrior. He clasped his fists and said, "Since it is a group of thieves, I will leave it to my son to deal with it. I ordered more than a thousand soldiers."
Ma, pick off his head to calm the adoptive father's shock."
Hearing the murderous words of the young man, the old general couldn't help but reveal a smile of relief. He stroked his beard with satisfaction and cursed with a smile: "What the hell are you talking about? You've been picking off people's heads all day long. It's not that scary, and you're not afraid of what others say about you."
."
The young man was confident and confident, with a "It's normal for me to say this" attitude: "When you go into battle to kill the enemy, it's all about 'life and death.' If you don't talk about picking off the head, do you have to politely ask people if they are willing to give their heads to their sons? If my son is willing to ask, he will
He also refused to give it."
What he said amused the old general.
The old general laughed heartily, and other generals also laughed.
One person flattered him: "The young general is certainly very brave. As long as he takes action, the little thief can only be captured without mercy."
The young man looked around, not sure why.
So he followed suit with a silly smile to cater to everyone.
Inwardly, he rolled his eyes secretly.
Got another news——
The strength of the leader who commands the little thieves is probably above or below everyone else, otherwise, this kind of credit will not fall on him. As he thought this, he heard the old general say: "My son is willing to do it.
But that kind of little thief doesn't need you to act."
The young man was slightly stunned.
Asked in a low voice: "Then the adoptive father called his son over..."
The old general glanced at the staff envoy.
The staff messenger came forward and said: "Major General, please be patient."
The young man felt a little uneasy inside.
At this time, the old general had already begun to order generals. The young man listened quietly, but found that the soldiers and horses dispatched by the old general were marching in three different directions, opposite to Xiaocheng. Even the sworn brother who specialized in "Yin Yang Wei Qi" was arranged
He led a thousand troops to respond.
The more the young man watched, the more he felt a little confused and couldn't clearly see the situation of the battle.
Why divide the troops in so many ways?
Or--
A bold and absurd guess emerged in the young man's heart.
Are these divisions of troops to fight against different forces?
The young man twitched his lips inwardly.
If that's the case, it's really fast.
How many days have passed since that late night incident?
After the generals left, only the young man, a few close confidants of the old general, and the messenger of King Pig were left.
The young man's brows twitched wildly.
The old general said in a deep voice: "Gong Xiqiu, listen to your orders!"
As the young man stood up, he transformed into a complete armor.
The clang of metal colliding is clear and powerful.
He said: "The end is here!"
The old general said: "I order you to lead 12,000 men and capture Xiaocheng before the third watch today. The envoy will assist you."
This order completely exceeded the young man's expectations.
Xiaocheng's current defense allowed him to lead 12,000 people to attack, and the time was still ample enough to limit it to before the third watch???
Intuition tells young people that there is no such good thing.
The old general knew his details very well.
This military order is too "easy".
The young man endured it, his Adam's apple rolled, and finally he swallowed back what he wanted to ask and said firmly: "I will obey the order!"
The old general added: "After the city is captured..."
He said and looked at the staff messenger.
He continued: "You just listen to the envoy's arrangements."
The young man Gong Xiqiu nodded to show that he understood, even though he had already begun to curse in his heart - towards this staff messenger, Gong Xiqiu said that this person was really annoying. The latter was also targeting him intentionally or unintentionally, and he didn't know what he was going to do this time. What bad water.
Seeing this situation, the old general changed his previous seriousness and repeatedly warned: "A Nian, after the city is broken, you are not allowed to disobey the envoy."
The young man said: "Yes, my son knows."
The old general is very happy.
"Okay, okay, father is here waiting for my son's triumphant return."
The young man's eyes lit up and he asked, "Can I have some drinks?"
The old general pretended to be serious: "Alcohol is prohibited in the army, but if you really want to, my father can take you out for a drink."
For a while, the atmosphere between father and son was harmonious.
It didn't feel like I was in a military camp at all, but more like I was at home.
There was a sly smile on the lips of the staff envoy.
Although it disappeared in a flash, he was still captured by Gong Xichou, and he felt very uncomfortable. After receiving the military order from the main tent, he began to prepare for the attack. The staff envoy who was accompanying him suddenly asked him: "Young General Why aren't you curious at all?"
Gong Xiqiu asked back: "What are you curious about?"
Staff messenger: "Of course I'm curious about why they suddenly attacked the city?"
Gongxi Qiu smiled and said: "Isn't the purpose of marching and fighting just to attack the city and seize the territory? It's a waste of time and food to besiege the city like before. The general only knows to obey the military orders, and the rest don't want to know or be curious. The messenger What do you think?"
The aide-de-camp didn’t talk to me.
He changed the subject and asked a very strange question.
"Major General, my family name is 'Gong'? This surname is very rare."
Gong Xiqiu didn't even bother to give alms with a look of disdain. How could he still serve as King Pig's confidant at this level?
It really makes people laugh out loud.
He said coldly: "My surname is Gongxi."
Not named "Gong"!
Of course, if the staff member's surname was "Mother", he wouldn't mind being teased as "Gong". Gong Xiqiu stepped up his legs and stepped up, eager to throw the staff member away. However, the staff member asked again: "Father"
My family name is 'Gongxi'? This surname is also rare."
Gong Xiqiu said: "Our family only takes our mother's surname."
The aide envoy seemed to suddenly remember something.
"This custom and this surname, could it be the 'Gongxi tribe' who lived in seclusion hundreds of years ago? I have heard about it occasionally, but I just heard that this tribe was not -" Before he could finish his words, the tip of a knife reflected
The dagger with a faint purple light was pressed against his throat. The aide envoy raised his eyes to look at Gong Xiqiu and sneered as he pushed the edge of the dagger away.
"The Major General is very concerned about this matter."
Gong Xiqiu shouted in a low voice: "Who are you?"
Staff envoy: "Who can I be? You just happen to know some secrets. Is this poking the Major General in the foot?"
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
Seeing that he was silent, the envoy on the staff opened his lips and smiled, revealing two rows of white teeth, and asked maliciously: "Young General, does he know what to do after the city is broken?" Seeing Gong Xiqiu, he still did not speak. He smiled and said: "Xiao General."
There is not a single living dog left in the city!"
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
"Major General, do you think these words sound familiar?"
Gong Xiqiu said lightly: "I don't think so."
The staff messenger asked: "What do you think of this move, Major General?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "We will obey orders and act accordingly."
The implication is that he will do whatever is ordered.
The staff envoy heard this: "Haha, very good, very good..."
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
Lin Feng heard Gong Xiqiu kicking open the tent and cursing words such as "sick". Tu Rong, who was applying medicine to himself with a grin on his face, also looked over and secretly muttered to himself who was being insulted by him.
Gong Xiqiu said: "Speak loudly."
Tu Rong obeyed and said loudly: "Are you offended by others?"
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
Tu Rong is definitely one of the toughest young men he has ever seen. He speaks loudly and dares to say anything. Although he can do the same thing himself, he is a fake tiger, and Tu Rong is a real tiger. He
He snorted heavily and said: "No one!"
Tu Rong muttered: "It doesn't look like..."
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
Lin Feng and Tu Rong watched Gong Xiqiu take the weapon and hang it on his waist. He came in a hurry and left in a hurry. Coupled with the constant sound of footsteps outside the tent and the sound of weapons clashing from time to time, they all smelled that a war was about to break out.
Dangerous atmosphere.
Lin Feng asked: "Is there going to be a war?"
"Do you still remember where your feet are?" Gong Xiqiu sneered, and ordered two trusted confidants to escort Lin Feng and the two of them away. Lin Feng and Tu Rong looked at each other, and neither of them moved. Gong Xiqiu
Asked, "Could it be that you two are relying on me?"
Lin Feng said: "No, I just don't understand..."
There had been no warning before, but now with this sudden arrangement, Lin Feng always felt that something was about to happen, and it was something bad.
Gong Xiqiu said: "Either go or stay."
He dropped a poisoned dagger.
Lin Feng asked no more questions.
The two and a half-year-old children put on the shabby clothes brought by Gong Xiqiu's henchmen, their clean cheeks were smeared with mud, and set out on the road carrying a small bag of food and dry food. Tu Rong wanted to bring more things, in addition to the food and dry food.
There are boxes containing the ashes of loved ones.
Lin Feng did not dare to cry, but when he turned around, he saw from a distance a series of flags, like dark clouds, fluttering in the wind.
She opened her mouth, as if she guessed something.
Tu Rong said: "Junior sister, don't look."
The two confidants had previously been favored by Gong Xichou, and they admired the Major General's invincible majesty on the battlefield, and fell in love with him. When they received the escort mission entrusted by Gong Xichou personally, the two were extremely excited, and they patted their chests and promised that they would do it.
Finish.
One of them asked: "Where are you two brothers going?"
For convenience, Lin Feng was also dressed up as a boy.
Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, "Yes."
She didn't know where her husband was at this time, but she knew where she should go to try her luck, but since the enemy and we were unknown, she couldn't lead the two of them to the village, for fear of bringing the flames of war with them.
They decided to go up halfway up the mountain and walk the rest of the way by themselves.
Thinking about going home soon, I felt a lot more at ease.
The man smiled and said, "That's good."
The Xiaocheng garrison was completely unable to laugh at this time.
The soldiers on the guard tower detected the approach of tens of thousands of rebels from all the way, and immediately spread the news. The soldiers on the city gate could not see that far, and could only vaguely see the dust rising in the distance.
He raised his head and glanced at the sky: "Isn't it time yet?"
The rebels regularly dumped civilian corpses into the city every day.
The people were panic-stricken. In the past two days, hundreds of people had developed the same symptoms one after another. Some of them had more acute symptoms, with only three days from the onset of symptoms to sudden death. In Xiaocheng, the people were panic-stricken. If the county government had not stepped in to rectify and appease the people, the situation would have been even more serious.
Come again today.
The soldiers guarding the city thought they were coming to dump corpses again.
But when the rebels approached and saw that they were heavily armed, they knew something was wrong and immediately sounded the warning horn. But what they never expected was that the rebels' style today was very different from the past.
In the past, things were slow and procrastinating, but today they are like sharp swords being drawn out of their sheaths.
As soon as they stood in formation, arrows rained down from the sky.
Some soldiers failed to react in time, fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, and fell off the city wall.
After three breaths, the second wave of arrows is about to strike again.
The soldiers were desperate.
"How dare you, thief!"
At this moment, I heard a loud shout! It fell in the ears of the garrison soldiers, and their depressed spirits suddenly cheered up!
"Don't panic, gentlemen, and fight with me against the enemy!"
It turned out that he was a brave warrior who temporarily took over the duties of Captain Yang and commanded the garrison. He was tall and burly. Although his strength was only that of a seventh-class official, he was experienced and calm. He was best at defense and liked to use
Defense becomes offense. As soon as he came forward, the soldiers in the garrison had a backbone and their morale skyrocketed.
The morale condensed into a whirlpool and gathered together. Under this blessing, the aura of the brave warrior increased steadily. At the same time, the martial aura on the warrior's body was also divided into three or four hundred channels, which were absorbed into the soldiers' bodies. These three or four
Hundreds of people, the momentum is unified.
"This is Xiaocheng, no thieves are allowed!"
As the loud shout spread, the city wall under the feet suddenly rose by more than ten feet - no, it was not that the city wall was raised, but another martial wall that was more than ten feet thick rose outside the city wall. The rain of arrows fell on the wall.
The tinkling sound stirred up dense ripples.
When this wave of arrows rained down, there were no cracks at all.
However, no one showed joy for this.
Everyone knows that this is just a wave of temptation from the enemy.
Depending on the size of the enemy, there may be as few as ten thousand.
Although he has the convenience of a city, Xiaocheng has been destroyed several times before and can only be used with repairs. If he encounters a ruthless character again, he is afraid that it will be completely scrapped. When the brave warrior sees the city and attacks the rebels
In the military formation, their faces became even more ashen.
At this time, the rebels stopped in unison. The two rows of people separated neatly, and a young general came out clapped his horse.
He is Gong Xiqiu.
Gong Xiqiu doesn't talk nonsense at all.
"If you surrender now, you can save your life!"
His voice was not loud, but it could be clearly heard by the people on the city wall, and the garrison who defended the city became furious.
The brave warriors who led the troops were also angered.
When you come up, ask people to open the city and surrender to save your life.
This guy is really arrogant!
He said: "You kid with a yellow mouth, you are so impudent!"
No need to talk much, just fight!
Suddenly, on the city walls and under the city walls, rhythmic and high-pitched war drums sounded, the sound soared to the sky, stirring up the energy of heaven and earth to riot.
The movement alarmed many people.
"Report——The enemy led more than 10,000 troops to attack the city!"
The messenger soldiers carried the news to the governor's house in the city.
Wu Yuan's expression suddenly changed.
Gu Chi looked in the direction of the city wall with an indifferent expression and stood up.
"Don't panic, go and have a look."
The ones who moved faster than Gu Chi were Shen Tang and his party.
