Chapter 44: The City Seizing (2)

But at this moment, Dong Dalang's troops had to move forward. The Khitan Xi army naturally would not fill their lives under the city wall as Xiao Yan expected. After Dong Dalang's troops and the civilians led them to rush to the city several times after surrounding Yizhou, they were killed and injured. The Yizhou guards were less than 3,000, and the city was low. However, under the bloody battle of Zhen Wuchen, they fought until heavy rain fell, and they still could not attack!

No one knows how many lives it will take to fill under this Yizhou city. And how long can Xiao Gan’s army last for them!

The officer ran up, and everyone of the Khitan Xi officers standing behind Xiao Gan changed their color. Their ever-winning army was in charge of Dong Dalang, and they were all too polite. The tent pawn dared to come up so straightforward to collide with the king of the four armies! The guards beside Xiao Gan immediately stepped forward, held him up, pressed him in the mud and water, and the horse whip mixed with silence, and the officer of the ever-winning army was just rolling in the mud and water. But he was really tough and didn't even say a word of wail, but just shouted loudly: "King, you care, we can't attack anymore! Punching under the city, the bows and arrows that support us were scattered. The defenders on the city could hit us with straight waists and smash the city with earth and stones! Brothers stayed in the wild, ate dry cakes, and had to attack the city in heavy rain. They were all from the same army, and it was worth fighting to death!"

Dong Dalang's face turned a little blue, and he slowly came out. Before he could speak, Xiao Gan smiled and said, "Stop! He is also a good man...... It's so heavy rain. The crossbow glue is soft and he can't send out a few arrows. What can I do? Dong Du, this is your subordinate, you can just cook..."

The Xi guard kicked him a few more times before he cursed and retreated. The officer turned over and knelt in the mud and water. He also took the initiative and looked at Dong Dalang: "It's all my business. I have been following the Dong family's enlistment since the old General Dong. It's not easy for brothers to survive! Now that I'm driving the brothers to attack the city, it's equivalent to killing them! If you want to attack the city, why don't King Xiao attack? Even if we are alone, we have to give us the same food and the same tabernacle. Don't let the brothers sleep in the mud and water again! Rest a few days and attack the fuck again! It's really not possible, why can't we go back to Zhuozhou? Lao Guo is seriously injured, what can we do to us?"

Dong Dalang's face turned ashen, slowly approached him and patted his head: "My command has such a brave man... Well, go and rest, I will change generals and go to the city... Yizhou must go down quickly! King Xiao and his army are here to support us. We cannot lose the people of the ever-victorious army in front of the king! Just an Yizhou, if you can't take it, what kind of face do we have to live in this place of Youyan?"

The general was speechless, looking at Dong Dalang's dark face, slowly paused his head and saluted, stood up and turned to retreat. However, Dong Dalang snorted coldly in his ear: "Since you have to rest, you don't have to get up again!"

While speaking, he had already pulled out his long sword that was never far away, and flashed across his neck like lightning. The soldiers of the ever-winning soldiers under the mound, and the officers of the Khitan Xi were watching the head, which was still wounded, falling down with blood!

"Hang up and order the entire army! Pass the order and continue to rush to the city!"

Looking at the mound opposite, a long pole was raised, and a human head was hanging high. Zhen Wuchen's face darkened on the city wall, slowly retreated and down the stairs. Closely close to the city wall, a greenhouse was built. Dozens of hungry and exhausted soldiers of the always-win soldiers were guarding the rain outside. The bodies transported from the city wall were not as good as burial, but were stacked at the base of the city wall like firewood, almost one person was tall. The blood mixed with mud, making the ground purple-black.

In the greenhouse, there were wounded soldiers wailing. There was a couch in the shed, and the tall body of Guo Yaoshi lying on it. He had a pale face, his upper body was covered with blood stains. However, with the support of his personal soldiers, he tried his best to support half of his body and whispered to comfort the wounded soldiers not far away. The wounded soldiers closer to him tried their best to support him not to make too loud howling sounds.

Yaoshi Guo's face was bleak, but he still looked calm.

Zhen Wuchen came, and the personal soldiers around Guo Yaoshi dodged and asked him to approach. Guo Yaoshi turned around and saw that it was him, and laughed in a low voice: "Five ministers, how about it? I have repelled it again, right? Someone listened...... I sent many brothers' bodies again...... I thank you for your hard work these days..."

Zhen Wuchen's short and strong body was obviously losing a lot. Although his spirit was not diminished, everyone could see that the haggardness from the heart came out. He walked closer and whispered: "Duo Guan, it won't last long...... The houses in the city are almost demolished, and nearly half of the soldiers are injured and killed...... While there is still some strength, the city's siege is not complete. I will protect Du Guan while the night is at the brink of Du Guan and go out...... Go to Songying and find the eldest lady and the envoy Xiao! I will stay in Yizhou and will never embarrass the Du Guan!"

Guo Yaoshi smiled lowly, just looking at Zhen Wuchen. He shook his head slowly: "I have half of my life's hard work. If I escape, I am just a walking corpse. What's the taste of living? A man can't eat five cauldrons, and if I cook five cauldrons, I won't leave... Five ministers, tell me how many days can I last?"

Zhen Wuchen silently raised three fingers.

Pharmacist Guo wanted to laugh, but in the end he turned into a violent cough that vibrated the lung lobes. The arrow injured the lung lobes and was extremely injured. It was another two days of bumpy road, and he was able to survive because he was strong and different from ordinary people!

"Three days are enough! My daughter will not leave me behind... The envoy named Xiao of the Great Song Dynasty is even more ambitious. He will not miss this opportunity! Even if he read it wrong, he will only die!"

On a mound, Ma Kuo looked north just looking at the gray-black brick-covered Zhuozhou city walls only seemed faintly in the rain curtain. This was probably the closest moment to Zhuozhou a hundred years later, with the protection of rain and fog, it was only a few miles away from the city.

Behind him, more than 300 cavalry white soldiers and Shengjie troops were waiting quietly under the mound. The man stood with his horse, and could only see the long white air spitting out from the iron helmet.

Xiao Yan just took dozens of people to attack Zhuozhou City?

You should know that the 150,000 troops of the Song Dynasty swore to the north. Famous officials and generals gathered together. However, they only crossed the Baigou River and did not even see the shadow of Zhuozhou City. In the same heavy rain, they were defeated and collapsed!

Looking back on Xiao Yan's solid face, this little white-faced person who looked light, pushed him involuntarily and led his troops to step into this unattainable barrier. Looking back, it was like a dream.

Xiao Yan was full of strangeness. He seemed to be different from others when he spoke and acted. He smiled freely and was not as cautious as he should have. But this person's courage and ability were really disappointing. Everything was so complicated, the situation of the Northern Expedition Army of the Song Dynasty was actually shattered and stagnant.

Could it be that God could not bear to see the battle between Yandi, which was so embarrassing, so he came down?

Behind him, two horses rode up quickly. Ma Kuo and Li Cunzhong and Qiu Huchen around him both looked back. However, it was Xiao Yan's cute and clear mute maid, and Xiao Yan, who stayed to protect him, seemed to be named Wang Gui.

Regarding this mute maid, Xiao Yan just said that he would follow him for a long time. This time he fled to Song, he was reluctant to leave him. Xiao Yan was confused, but Ma Kuo had a wide range of knowledge and eyes. Although this 14 or 15-year-old maid was in charge of serving Xiao Yan, his behavior was elegant and he was obviously influenced by extreme nobility in every word and action. And it was purely a manner that only the wealthy families of the Song Dynasty had!

The Liao nobles, even the palace, have been extremely Songhua since the middle of the lunar calendar, and there is even an emperor who wishes to be born in the Song Dynasty. The nobles and nobles can only accept such a complete Song ritual teaching. Xiao Yan claims to be a deputy envoy of the small group training, so how can he afford such a maid?

However, Ma Kuo only hid all this in his heart. The little mute was extremely well-behaved and smiled at everyone. After walking with him for a few days, who didn't like these rude men? Even Ma Kuo sometimes couldn't help but secretly envy Xiao Yan for his good fortune.

Seeing the little mute running towards him, his cloak was already wet, and his face was covered with water droplets. He just looked north and looked at Ma Kuo again, his eyes full of begging. Behind her, Wang Gui was just not too slow, but followed him in an endless manner.

Ma Kuo smiled reluctantly: "Sister, I can only wait now... Brother Xiao said that after he set out for an hour, we can only move northward and straight down the city. Even if the sky collapses and the earth falls, we can't move... At this time, we can only listen to him..."

The little mute said twice, not knowing whether it was tears or water droplets on her face, but only saw that her big eyes were red. She closed her hands and shook her horse continuously, just begging.

Ma Kuo could only harden his heart and shook his head: "Little sister, this is a military matter! There is no way to play a trick! If the little sister is in love with Brother Xiao, just pray for him... But I believe that Brother Xiao is a person who can walk back and forth even in the Liao people's camp. Can this little Zhuozhou still stump him?"

After he said this, he turned around. The sound of dismounting from the horse came from behind. Ma Kuo looked back again, but saw the little mute really kneeling in the mud! She faced the direction of Tiantai Temple, the most famous Liao Kingdom, with her hands folded, just silently praying in the rain. Her little face seemed to be full of light at this moment.

Li Cunzhong and Qiu Huchen both shook their heads. They were not selected to go to the city. Bai Jian and Sheng Jie Army brigade could only be their commanders. Xiao Yan led it, just his team that had gathered together! These two generals were both admired and a little lost.

"Good guy, good guy... It wasn't that bad at the beginning. My husband asked me to listen to the Xuanzang order. I just wanted to let me listen to the bird Xuanzang, let me listen to him? My husband would be willing to let me give up! Now it seems that I am convinced from the bottom of my heart! If the word Xuanzang is replaced by the word Xuanzang, we might all be in Yanjing City now!"

"I'm not a good man, how can I afford to be loyal to this little lady? My wife is only fifteen. Compared to this little lady, she is just a foot cloth!"

The two of them whispered, and after a moment of silence, Ma Kuo's heart was in his heart. He looked at the little mute and looked north again.

"Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, do you know that you are not the only maid who prays for you at this moment... If the official family knows it, you should burn incense and bathe in Bianliang at this moment!"
