Chapter 164 Chasing the North (thirteen)
("readerFs").className = "rfs_" + rSetDef()[3]
The chaos outside the city evolved to a tense level in a short period of time.
The defeated soldiers of the army were wearing helmets and armor, holding spears and swords, shouting and scolding at the hundreds of prefects at the city gate.
The fire at the top of the city shone on the armor and weapons, and the metal lights pounded, shining with its eyes. Thousands of helmets on the skulls seemed to form a bloody ocean.
The generals had already arrived in the queue, waved their hands, shouted loudly, and wanted to regain control of their team. But the same thing was said, as an armed violent group, the army could not lose control at any time. Indulging the army to cause trouble, in the end, they would find it was already uncontrollable!
The hundreds of Wang Rengong guards guarding the city gates were covered in sweat, and formed a dense array, leaning on their shoulders. Looking at the dark crowds of people opposite, the guards who had wished they could roll their Adam's apples, and their mouths were as dry as if they had been filled with sand.
The commander of the personal guard Wang Ze nervously pressed his sword at his waist in the queue, praying that the generals could suppress the situation.
If you can't suppress it, then things will be really bad!
Although Wang Rengong personally guarded the battalion, there were as many as 300 people. Some people could use their hands to reinforce. However, facing so many local military horses in the Mayi Yingyang Mansion, it was still a drop in the bucket. Once chaos broke out, I was afraid that I could only protect Wang Rengong from fleeing Mayi County in a hurry.
After Wang Rengong's entire ambitions and dreams were lost in the foundation of Mayi County, they turned into vain. The Wang family in Taiyuan could only allow other great families to dominate their destiny.
The generals raised their hands among the crowd, either dissuading, or ordering, or simply shouting loudly to calm their subordinates down and wait for the prefect to come out.
But when the defeated army retreated, the furious Wang Rengong refused to fulfill their wish and let the defeated army enter the city to reorganize. They asked them to reorganize outside the city to prepare to attack Shenwu again. Most of the cold wind was blowing outside, and they were indulged in openly and secretly by the generals of the army with ulterior motives, and they had blood with Wang Rengong's personal guards. So many military hedgehogs who aroused emotions gathered together, and these generals who could always firmly control their commands had no choice but to do so at this moment.
Angry soldiers shouted loudly at their generals.
"Master, we local Yingyang soldiers in Mayi are born to be inferior to each other under the command of the prefect of the king! We must focus on them first, and pay the money first. Although our food is not short, we can only pay the money at most. It is good compared to Heng'an Yingyang Mansion, but it looks like we are holding our breath. This is the place in Mayi!"
"We have made great contributions and it's time to get promoted. These outsiders come over and take our place! It's okay for the Wang family, why are even the Turks climbing onto our heads?"
"We were not the ones who lost this battle first! The Election Camp was beaten up first, and then the King of Fen took the lead and ran first, and the entire army collapsed. Now the Election Camp and Fen were nowhere to be seen. They must have run to Shanyang City to stay comfortable, serving them with great wine and meat. Let's drink here!"
"Our Mayi Yingyang Mansion is the border army of the Sui Dynasty! It is an old team that can fight tough battles, and the elite of the world! Both generations of emperors looked up to us at a glance. Why are Wang Rengong treated like this? What benefits did we get from Wang Rengong?"
"We are not valued by Wang Rengong, so there are still people who value us. We can't just go to Liu Wuzhou! Now Liu Wuzhou is not far away, just in Shenwu!"
The more the soldiers shouted, the more angry they became. Some people simply took action to push their own generals out of their way to prevent them from getting involved. The group of Mayi generals who had tacit understanding of the situation was about to be out of control. They all looked pale but didn't dare to do anything anymore. Now the soldiers are irritated and really angered them. In the end, these angers fell on themselves. That was not fun!
There are also some people who are not involved in this farce. For example, the officer with a scar on the face who once stopped the defeated soldiers of the Selection Camp and asked the Selection Camp to chop him naked.
The officer is named Chen Xi. A team member of Zhonglei Camp, one of the fifth battalions of Mayi, has been in the Yingyang Mansion of Mayi for ten years. All his family members died in the Turkic southern invasion. This time, he collapsed with the brigade, but he never lost the mastery of the brothers under his opponents. Now a large group of defeated soldiers are causing trouble, but his brothers are surrounded by him tightly and do not participate in it.
Chen Xi blew the cold wind in the middle of the night, and his face turned a little blue. He found some jerky from somewhere. He sat aside and chewed with his head in his mouth. He tossed and turned and couldn't chew it. He spit out his mouth with a sneer. Looking at the chaotic scene not far away, he sneered: "What's this?"
Several brothers came over and asked, "Soldier Master, should we join in the fun too?"
Chen Xi spat again: "We are border troops! We eat sand in Mayi just to block the Turks! Whoever takes us to fight the Turks will follow the orders. What should we do to join in the fun?"
He threw another piece of unchewable dried meat into his mouth and sighed: "Wang Rengong is not like someone who took us to fight the Turks. He wanted to shout with the Duke of Tang in Hedong, so it would be better to leave early! Liu Ying could hit the entire Mayi, and I don't know if it would be better. I just wanted to fight the Turks to the death with peace of mind!"
No matter in Heng'an Yingyang Mansion and Mayi Yingyang Mansion, there are definitely many people like Chen Xi. The Turks have risen for decades and have repeatedly plagued border counties. Many people in the border counties have already formed deep hatreds with the Turks. Now, in the two major Yingyang Mansions of Mayi, the superiors have their own thoughts. Some want to compete for the Central Plains, some want to go further, and some want to seek greater benefits in the battle between Wang Rengong and Liu Wuzhou, but there are still many people who just want to fight the Turks to the end.
At this time, at the gate of the city, the generals who maintained order were pushed out, and the shouts of the soldiers became louder and finally gathered into a voice that shocked the entire Shanyang City.
"Crash into the city! Prefect Wang refused to come out, so let's go in!"
Countless weapons were shaking, and a large group of soldiers rushed towards the city gate again.
Wang Ze's face was sweating loudly and ordered loudly: "Hold the spear!"
The guards, who had already reached the extreme nervousness, heard the move, and hundreds of spears were laid flat. This time, the spear rod was no longer directed at the person, and the hundred sharp spearheads pointed at the coming soldiers!
The soldiers shouted loudly, and the people in the front row dodged one after another, and people kept pouring out from behind. The soldiers who came up from behind were holding big shields and preparing to hit the spear formation to cover the brothers behind to take advantage of the situation to kill in.
At this time, many military generals closed their eyes in despair. If this was really started, they would be unable to deal with it anymore!
A Xu Le came out of nowhere and was in trouble in his heart under Wang Rengong's rule, which actually made the seemingly invincible Mayi Yingyang Mansion look like this!
If Xu Le were here, I would probably have to shrugged.
I can't imagine this...
At this deadliest moment, a fire suddenly lit up on the top of the city wall.
Under the reflection of the fire, Wang Rengong's figure in armor appeared quietly, pressing his sword around his waist, and staring coldly at the brigade of defeated soldiers under the city like raging waves.
