From what she knew, the large ships of the famous families and large merchants in the upper reaches that could be obtained by this Northern Wei army had been used in previous battles, became part of the pontoon bridge, or had become broken wrecks.
In any military situation, such a large ship does not exist.
In the dim light, these large ships appeared in incredible postures. They were much larger than those of the merchant houses, and these ships all appeared to be very new.
Along with the sound of water, there is even a smell of fresh oil and wood wafting on the water.
Lin Yi's brows furrowed deeply.
His eyesight is much better than that of Qi Zhuji and others. Even in the dark, he can clearly see far away places.
He could see the end of this fleet.
He had already seen the fleet clearly before the warning sound on the city wall sounded.
There are twenty-three large ships in total.
"Which family in the upper reaches of the river owns so many big ships, or has the ability to build so many new big ships?"
He turned his head, looked at Bai Yuelu and asked.
"The Guo family of Fushui County." Bai Yuelu thought for a while and said: "Unless it is the Li Gongfang Company in Jiankang, there are usually not so many big ships. The only ones with the ability to build so many big ships along the upper reaches of the river are Fu.
A member of the Guo family in Shuijun."
He said no more.
However, everyone felt his anger and understood why he was angry.
Those on board were not from the Southern Dynasties, but from the Northern Wei Dynasty.
He and all the Southern Dynasty sergeants in the city guarded the north wall to prevent the army from the other side from entering Zhongli City through the pontoon bridge.
But with these big ships, what’s the point if there are no pontoons?
Many people laughed miserably.
Those large ships had already turned to the north bank during the voyage. There were twenty-three large ships in total. Even if these large ships could only carry more than a thousand people at a time, and made several trips back and forth, they could even directly send all the troops on the shore to the north wall.
The Northern Wei army on Jiangxinzhou and the north bank was completely jubilant.
Yang Dian, who had been sitting on Xi Ruyu's chariot with his eyes closed and regulating his breath, opened his eyes. He looked at the large ships approaching in the morning light and cursed with admiration in his heart.
He knew that this must be the work of Master Mo Zong, because when he separated from Xing Lian and Yuanying before, he was very aware of the urgency of time, and Yuanying had no time to prepare such a big ship.
He never thought that just a few ships sailing on the water could completely cheer up an army whose morale had been extremely low.
…
"What happened?"
There was a sound in the dark tent.
The bodies of several Golden Crow Cavalry sergeants who had been waiting outside the tent were suddenly shaken.
"The military advisor is awake."
One Golden Crow rider quickly got into the camp, and the other Golden Crow rider rushed towards the beach outside the north wall as fast as possible.
"Commander, we will send you away."
Fei Yi Ling appeared in front of the tent as quickly as possible. He looked at the hand extending out of the tent, bowed and saluted, and said.
"Either I'm going to die in Taoist City, or I'm going to die here."
Chen Jinru opened the curtain of the tent. He did not ask for the support of the Golden Crow Cavalry. He stood up slowly but steadily and walked out of the tent. He glanced at the sky and then said: "You can leave, but I can't leave."
.”
Fei Yiling shook his head, "Even if I send you away, we must keep you because we must repay the debt between Tie Cejun and Jiange."
Chen Jinru nodded calmly, "Then let's die here together."
Fei Yiling also nodded and said: "Then let's die here together."
…
"You go first."
On the city wall, Lin Yi took a deep breath, looked at Qi Zhuji and others and said.
"First?"
Qi Zhuji suddenly sneered, "Let's just go. What's the order? The army from the other side is pouring in. Who can be spared? If you let us go first, can you still walk behind? Can you still walk?"
Xiao Suxin looked at Lin Yi's extremely solemn face in the dim sky, shook her head, and said: "If you don't leave, I won't leave. Don't talk to me about military orders. I have never been in Tiece Army."
For what military order?"
"I am your valet."
Rong Yi's eyes were very red. He kept taking deep breaths and said, "Even if I am going to die, I should die before you."
Lin Yi glanced at the other side and saw that the ship on the other side had already docked.
"Is there something wrong with your brain?"
His voice sounded very low, "If there was even the slightest possibility of defending this city, would I let you go first? And I'm different from you. When your true energy is exhausted, you are no different from these ordinary soldiers. Even if I
Now that I am the only one left in the battle, I might have the strength to break through."
"Stop telling such jokes."
Qi Zhuji looked at Lin Yi mockingly and said: "Ask every Northern Wei person on the other side who they hate the most? A monster like you can stay here and leave the city. If you are allowed to leave alive, you will naturally
You can also defend other cities, as long as you are trapped in the army, no matter how much they pay, they will not let you leave."
"You are Zhongli Cheng now."
Li Moxiao's voice rang out, and there was an unspeakable emotion on his young face, "At this moment, they should have received military information that General Wei Rui will come here for reinforcements, so they will never let you live with General Wei Rui.
The armies have gathered. When these ships arrive here, their first purpose is to kill you, not to use their feet to occupy the land of Zhongli City."
"But does this make sense?" Lin Yi looked at him and said, "Since what they want to do most is to let me die here, and since I definitely can't leave, then you can leave."
"People die all the time."
Li Mo smiled and said, "I'm still talking about whether it makes sense, but it really doesn't make sense. I can only say that I'm very lucky. I'm very lucky to die here with you kind people."
Lin Yi opened his mouth, wanting to say something more.
A calm voice rang out.
"The porridge is ready, would you all like to drink some?"
Bai Yuelu raised her head.
The two pots of porridge in front of her exuded warm white steam and a sweet smell.
"I want some pickles." Qi Zhuji said, "I don't know why, but I usually don't like to eat them, but now they taste heavy and the porridge is too light."
"General Qi."
Some of the sergeants around had not heard clearly the content of their argument before, but looking at their appearance at this time, these sergeants knew what they were arguing about. After they heard Qi Zhuji's words clearly, someone immediately ran over and started talking to them.
Qi Zhuji carefully performed the military salute and then handed over a jar of pickles.
