Chapter 406: The Origin of the Four Generations and Three Dukes
Looking at this tall and thick younger brother and sister, the usually cheerful pottery merchant actually became a little embarrassed.
It's not that he is shy, it's mainly that Tao Shang is worried that if he fails to talk to his younger brother and sister, the younger brother and sister will attack him too hard and kill him...or go back to his room at night and kill his second brother.
Fierce younger siblings are not to be messed with.
The pottery merchant walked over, smiled and nodded to Hua'er as a sign of goodwill.
Hua'er's face was full of ferocity, she showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and she also smiled in return of the potter's courtesy.
The potter suddenly thought of a very serious question... Hua'er was born in the Hanyue ethnic group in Lingnan, and she probably didn't speak the Chinese language... So what language should she speak?
Will it be in Cantonese?
"That's great!" The potter greeted Hua'er with a smile.
Hua'er blinked her eyes as big as copper bells and looked at the potter doubtfully.
"I know you, my forehead is very warm. (I'm so honored to know you.)"
Hua'er raised a thick eyebrow, still not quite understanding what the potter was talking about.
It seems that my Cantonese still needs to be improved, and I don’t know how my second brother communicates with his younger siblings on weekdays.
"Sister Hua Xiu, why are you yelling at Sentai Zong? (Ms. Hua Xiu, how is your father's health lately?)"
Hua'er turned her head to look at Tao Ying in confusion, and asked Tao Ying in authentic Mandarin, "Husband, is this how our eldest brother talks so much on weekdays?"
Tao Ying stared at the pottery merchant in shock, shook his head and said: "I usually speak human language, not like this... I don't know what happened today."
Potter: "..."
Okay, I'm superfluous.
They have been included in the Chinese civilization.
"Brothers and sisters, please be polite to me." The pottery merchant changed his tone and spoke normally.
Hua'er breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that the pottery merchant had changed to speak Mandarin.
My husband, this big brother, is quite interesting! When we met for the first time, he even showed me a foreign language.
Then you can't lose your etiquette. I heard that people in the Central Plains are very particular about this.
Dan Hua'er grinned and laughed heartily.
"Oh wow~ Hahahahaha! Brother, my sister is here to greet you!"
The potter was so frightened by her devilish laughter that he almost knelt down.
"Brother, my father Hua Dang heard that his eldest brother was competing with Yuan Shu in Nanchang. Thinking of the friendship between the two brothers-in-law, he specially ordered his younger sister to lead three thousand soldiers and horses to help him in the battle! As for my father, he has already gone to Ouyue in person.
The Minyue and other tribes persuaded the chiefs on behalf of my eldest brother to become kings together!"
The potter was overjoyed when he heard this, and turned to look at Tao Ying in surprise, only to see Tao Ying wink at him.
This boy is really capable... It seems that the governor of Yuzhang and the Fuyi Zhonglang General of Kuaiji County must be him.
"Brother and sister are so kind, I am deeply comforted. Now I am planning to send troops to attack Nanchang City from the south. I wonder if my brothers and sisters can help me?"
"Oh wow~ Hahahahaha!"
Hua'er's devilish laughter frightened the potter so much that his whole body trembled.
"What's the point of a trivial matter? Brother, don't worry, we'll attack Nanchang! My sister is willing to be the vanguard!"
…
At this moment, in Nanchang City, Yuan Shu dispatched five thousand elite soldiers and was carrying out a bloody massacre against the people who had launched a rebellion in the city and wanted to hijack the granary.
On the street next to the granary, there were bloody corpses everywhere.
The common people and Yuan's soldiers were all furious and showed no mercy.
But the people in the city were facing regular troops after all, and they couldn't defeat them no matter what.
The people were suppressed by Yuan's army, but Yuan's army was not happy either. A rebellion broke out in the city, which dispersed the defenders. For Yuan's army, which had to face an attack outside the city at this time, it was like adding insult to injury.
Sun Ce and Lu Bu were both brave generals who fought on the battlefield all year round. Yuan Jun's defense pressure on the city was suddenly reduced, so naturally they were caught in the gap.
The Bingzhou Army and the Sun Army accelerated their attack on the city.
At this time of internal and external troubles, the Tao Shang and Hua'er armies formed one force and went straight to attack the weakest south side of Nanchang City.
Moreover, before attacking the city, Tao Shang erected countless dazzling white flags with large characters written on them in front of the three army formations, which looked particularly painful in the eyes of Sergeant Yuan's soldiers on the opposite city wall.
"Yuan Shu is unkind, God will punish him!"
When Yuan Shu stood on the top of the city and saw the vertical banners of Tao Shang's army arrayed in front of the formation, he almost fainted without vomiting blood.
Yuan Shu was really annoyed this time.
He ordered Ji Ling to defend Wengcheng in the dangerous position of Nancheng, and called Zhang Xun over!
He made up his mind to fight the potter Xiaoer to the death.
The culprit of everything is this young boy in his early twenties!
Without his existence, Yuan Shu would have become the King of Nantian long ago! Why would he go to such trouble for Yuzhang County?
"Unexpectedly, Yuan would be controlled by a child!" Yuan Shu gritted his teeth angrily: "If I don't become a male and female with you today, I will be a descendant of the Yuan family in Runan in vain!"
As the shrill sound of horns sounded, the attacking troops of the Jinling Army, in cooperation with the barbarian soldiers and horses of Hanyue, began to launch the final attack on Nanchang City.
The arrows and crossbows on the city wall shot immediately!
"Whoosh whoosh!"
The shield troops rushing at the front quickly changed their formations and formed turtle shell formations to cover the ladder troops and the car charging troops moving forward at a constant speed.
The arrows hit the shield, making a "crackling" sound.
Yuan Shu stood at the top of the city and loudly ordered the archers on the wall: "Keep shooting! Don't stop! Don't let them approach the city!"
"Blow the trumpet to order the front troops to approach the city wall, throw earth bags, and set up ladders." The pottery merchant turned to the messenger and ordered.
"Woooooooo..." the horn sound resounded throughout the sky above Nanchang City.
Two thousand Jinling soldiers carrying earth bags were all strong men. Under the cover of the turtle shell formation, they arrived at the bottom of the city and threw the earth bags under the wall of Nanchang City.
Above their heads, there were whistling stones and rolling logs, hitting the Jinling Army heavily and taking their lives.
Facing their comrades who continued to fall around them, the Jinling Army did not hesitate. They pushed the team resolutely and tenaciously under the city wall of Nanchang. The soldiers put their shields on their heads and set up long ladders to climb the city.
Since the earth bags have been accumulated in advance, the base of the ladder with gaps inserted deeply into the earth bags is obviously stronger than placing it on the ground, and it is less likely to be pushed down by Yuan Jun soldiers guarding the city.
When everything was ready, the pottery merchant once again ordered someone to issue the charge signal, and the five hundred first batch of siege soldiers began to climb the stairs like ants under the command of the trumpet sound.
They roared wildly, rushed toward the city ladder with swords in one hand and shields in the other, and climbed up.
Gan Ning and Zhou Tai, as the covering generals of the Chinese army, commanded a battalion of longbowmen with huge arms and holding more than two stones to follow closely behind! They used crossbows with powerful strings to escort them.
Gan Ning shook the bell and made a "ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding" sound.
!”
Soldiers on both sides have fallen, and the dense long arrows from both sides are like dark clouds on the top of the city. You come and I come.
Until the first batch of Jinling troops boarded the city, a bloody battle began!
Xu Chu, Tao Ji, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Dong Xi, Pan Zhang and others took the lead and led most of the attacking soldiers to follow closely. The battle for the auxiliary wall immediately entered a fierce stage.
More and more Jinling soldiers and Hanyue barbarians jumped on the city wall, and the hand-to-hand fighting became increasingly fierce.
Gan Ning took the lead and headed straight for Ji Ling, who was the most vicious killer on the city wall.
Ji Ling almost killed a Jinling soldier with every sword strike. While he was waving his sword crazily, he shouted angrily to his soldiers: "Support! Support! Get up there!"
Before Ji Ling could finish his words, Gan Ning's sword had already shot up into the air and roared towards him like lightning.
Ji Ling didn't expect that there were such brave warriors in the Jinling army, so he hurriedly swung his sword and hit it with a straight edge.
"Where did the thief come from and dared to sneak attack on your Ji Gong!" Ji Ling's eyes widened in anger and he glared at Gan Ning fiercely.
Gan Ning twisted his waist proudly and made the noise of "Dingling Dingling", as if the bicycle became fine.
"What? I don't know your godfather? You are so ignorant!"
Ji Ling stared at this lunatic and said fiercely: "I want your life!"
Amidst the deafening shouts of the soldiers on both sides of the city, the two men crossed their swords with a loud bang and started fighting each other.
The two men fought with swords and halberds for more than thirty times in the blink of an eye, with no winner or loser.
Ji Ling was obviously in a bad mood and had no desire to fight. He was just dealing with Gan Ning's fierce attacks, while Gan Ning became more courageous as he fought.
From Ji Ling's sword, he clearly felt that the opponent was a highly capable person whose strength was not inferior to his own, so the more he fought, the more excited he became.
Ji Ling was helpless when faced with a crazy person like Gan Ning. He really didn't want to get into too much trouble with him, and the problem just couldn't be avoided.
"Take my sword!" Gan Ning's sword was like a tiger, coming straight towards Ji Ling's door.
Ji Ling slightly turned around to dodge. He was about to retaliate with a knife, but found that Gan Ning's vertical slash just now was just a feint. His wrist changed very quickly. After slashing in the air, he changed the trajectory of the knife and followed him.
The sides of it were chamfered.
Ji Ling broke out in a cold sweat and his whole body immediately rose into the air, barely dodging Gan Ning's fatal blow.
Ji Ling fell to the ground and took a few steps back before regaining his balance.
Gan Ning's sword finally cut out Ji Ling's true fire.
He served in the army for several years and followed Yuan Shu through various ministries. In terms of military force alone, none of Yuan Shu's generals could surpass him.
Zhang Xun, Liu Xun and others were superior to him in military skills, but their martial prowess was not as good as Ji Ling's.
Ji Ling's self-esteem was deeply frustrated when he saw that this little-known psycho who was showing off to himself with a bell dangling from his butt actually forced himself into this situation!
He roared angrily: "Bitch thief! Let Mr. Ji punish you!"
Gan Ning also shouted, laughed, and waved, "Come on!"
The two men were immediately like two fierce tigers, ready to attack, glaring at each other with an attitude of fighting to the death.
Just when the two people were about to rush towards each other, they saw a figure suddenly flash out of the diagonal stab. With lightning speed, it passed in front of Ji Ling and pierced Ji Ling's upper arm with a knife.
Ji Lingyang roared angrily and fell to the ground in pain.
The visitor kicked Ji Ling over and shouted loudly, calling for the surrounding soldiers to come over and help him capture Ji Ling alive.
Gan Ning stared blankly at the visitor, a look of humiliating anger flashing across his face.
"Pan Wengui! What do you mean?"
Pan Zhang smiled happily and said: "Colonel Gan, it's not that I always want to compete with you for food, but now is an important time to defeat Yuan Shu. Captain Gan must not delay the real victory because of his own bravery and ruthlessness.
event!"
After that, Pan Zhang pointed at the bound Ji Ling and said: "This man is an important general under Yuan Shu's account. He will be of great use if he kills or captures him. It's a pity that Lieutenant Gan could not fight for a long time and struggled with him."
The time is so long that the general has no choice but to take action, please don’t take offense, Brother Gan!"
Gan Ning stared at Pan Zhang, wishing he could chop him alive, but everything he said was reasonable and he could not refute it at all.
Taking a deep breath, Gan Ning stopped looking at Pan Zhang and turned around to join other battle groups.
Pan Zhang turned his head and looked at Ji Ling, who was bound by him, and said with a smile: "This credit belongs to me!"
…
There are more and more Jinling troops on the top of the city, and the gates below the city are also broken open, and the Jinling troops attack the city like worms.
Yuan Shu was protected by Zhang Xun and shouted loudly as he ran: "Don't retreat! Don't retreat! Beat me hard! I'm going to kill the pottery merchant! Kill him!"
Zhang Xun hugged Yuan Shu and ran towards the city almost as fast as he could. As he ran, he shouted: "Lord, let's go quickly! It's not suitable to stay here for a long time! Lu Bu and Sun Ce are also attacking quickly! Ming Gong still needs to leave a useful person behind for the sake of the future."
Hegemony, don’t let your temper get the better of you! Let’s go quickly!”
