Jun Jiuling - Chapter 757
[Chapter 38]
Blood splattered everywhere, and a golden soldier was pierced by a long spear in the neck. He let out a howl and reached out to grab the spear, but the next moment he was kicked off the city wall by Zhou Bing who came back from the side, but Zhou Bing had not had time to rejoice. , a sickle next to him slashed and hooked his neck, and when he pulled and pulled, Zhou Bing fell down screaming with blood.
There was a fight under the city wall and there was bloody hand-to-hand fighting everywhere.
I don’t know how long it took, the golden soldiers with more than half of the dead and wounded finally stopped their attack, and the survivors dragged the dead and wounded golden soldiers and retreated with the sound of the horn.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the majestic city. The city was no longer what it used to be. There were bloodstains everywhere, corpses and limbs, and long ladders to the city were scattered on the ground.
The sound of fighting subsided, and the groaning, crying, and wailing were all over the place.
The living are weeping, the slightly injured are moaning, and the severely injured are howling.
The sound of armor and swords colliding was mixed in. This was the soldiers cleaning the city wall, waiting to be re-armed to meet the enemy’s attack again.
Qing Hebo was covered in blood, and his helmet had been thrown from nowhere. His gray hair was almost snow-white, and it fluttered in the wind.
He stood on the city wall, looking at the devastation with a heavy expression.
“How many casualties this time?” he asked.
“It hasn’t been found out yet.” A general said, bowing his head, “It is roughly estimated that more than a thousand people died in battle.”
This number of casualties is normal for an offensive and defensive battle.
However, this is the number of casualties I don’t know, and the number is staggering.
On the other hand, the reason why the number of casualties is normal is because after the casualties, there are still troops to fill up, but now they have no troops to make up for.
One less dead, one less injured, one waste.
Qing Hebo turned his head and looked left and right.
The original army formation had already shrunk back to defense. Although the camp flag was still there, Qing Hebo knew that the army had been crippled.
On the other side of the golden man, Qing Hebo looked forward again. Compared with the camp that was invisible before, it was densely visible at this time.
In this battle, victory is long overdue, defeat and death are doomed, it will be sooner or later.
“Uncle.” Suddenly a general stepped forward and whispered, “The last general has observed that the golden people in the west are weak, it is better for me to protect the uncle to break through.”
As soon as this statement came out, the expressions of the other generals moved slightly.
“Yeah, Uncle, leave the green hills so that you won’t have to worry about no firewood.”
“Uncle, the last commander is willing to stay and fight the enemy. Please uncle fight out of the siege and avenge the last commander in the future.”
One after another, the generals stood up and said.
“Absurd!” Qing Hebo interrupted them in a deep voice, “I, Zou Jiang, have never escaped in front of the golden man.”
The generals looked complicated.
“Uncle, I’m not saying that Uncle fled in fear.” A general said earnestly, “It’s just not worth dying like this…”
Qing Hebo interrupted him again.
“You are wrong, this is the best way to die.” He said in a deep voice, “The most important thing in this battle is to take a breath. If I wait to break through, then the breath will be vented, and our army will collapse immediately and everyone will flee. .”
He stretched his finger forward.
“Under the eyes of tens of thousands of golden thieves, what results can you imagine?”
The generals and officials looked forward, their faces pale, as if they saw everyone fleeing for their lives, and the golden army cavalry raged and strangled.
“Under that kind of situation, we can’t break out at all.” Qing Hebo said in a calm voice, “What’s more, if we collapse first, the reinforcements outside will inevitably be hurt.”
reinforcements…
Even thinking about reinforcements.
The expressions of several generals were bitter. It had been so many days, and they had not seen a single reinforcement. I didn’t know whether they all fled in cowardice or were maimed by the golden man.
No news came in, and the Jin people did not collapse at all.
They were thrown into the ocean like a lone boat.
Uncle is still waiting for reinforcements, this is to deceive himself to be so strong.
“The gold thieves are powerful, but as long as I stick to the camp, I have more hope of survival than fleeing in the wilderness.” Qinghe Bo Surong said, “When the reinforcements arrive,
Internal and external attack, will be able to kill a way out.
”
He said in a high voice.
“Since the day I became a soldier, I have already sacrificed myself for the country, and I need to fight the enemy bravely. If anyone dares to speak up again, they will retreat.”
As he said that, he slammed down the long knife in his hand, and the helmet of a golden man who rolled on the ground was slashed by a knife.
“Law right on the spot.”
The generals kneeled in awe and answered in unison.
“Come on, take advantage of this to make rice.” Qing Hebo said, looking to the back, “The food and grass are not enough, so use it according to your discretion.”
The generals responded in unison again, got up and led the way.
Qing Hebo stood alone and looked back.
reinforcements
This northern land is no longer his world, and he is full of indignation.
The night seems to be the trumpet of armistice in many places,
Looking at the golden soldiers receding like a tide in front of a small hill, one person pushed the dead soldiers who were lying on their backs away, rolled and crawled across a messy battlefield, and turned into a ravine.
The gully was crowded with soldiers, all scarred and frightened.
“Master Qi, the golden soldiers have retreated.” The visitor said in a hoarse voice, “Let’s retreat while the night is dark.”
In the group of soldiers, a general with a wound on the shoulder looked over.
“I can’t retreat.” He said, “Uncle is still waiting for reinforcements.”
“Sir.” The voice was hoarse and weeping, “The Jin people have been besieged for so many days, so many times, and the uncle is probably no longer there.”
He looked at the people around him again.
“We only have this few people left. Even if we break through, what can we do?”
Break through, how could it be possible to break through and enter, if they could break through, they would have already entered, so why wait until now.
The general looked sad and angry.
“But we can’t go back.”
“Sir.” Everyone who came here was about to cry. “You are already very heroic. You have lived up to the court and the uncle. With so many reinforcements, others have retreated, but you are the only one who did not.”
The officer stood up and smashed the knife in his hand to the ground.
“It’s not that we won’t retreat, it’s that we can’t retreat now.” He shouted hoarsely, pointing behind him, “Do you really think the golden men didn’t surround us, did they really forget? It’s just a cat-and-mouse, they just We are waiting for us to retreat. Once we retreat, we will be forced into the Jiangshui River. The weather is cold and the ground is freezing. We have few soldiers and horses. And Jin Bing just needs to watch us from the rear, and it is enough, without a shot and an arrow.”
The people present listened with grief-stricken faces.
It turned out that they had already been ambushed.
I thought it was to help others to attack the golden man, but it turned out that the golden man had already opened his pocket and invited them in.
“Since the uncle has been ambushed by the uncle, why didn’t he prepare in advance to deal with the accompanying reinforcements?” The men and horses ran away, and he is indeed a veteran of the North, and he is familiar with the Jin people.”
The people around thought of the few military horses that ran away before leaving, and they couldn’t say they were angry or envious.
“Why didn’t they tell us.” Someone muttered.
“Tell us, do we listen?” someone whispered.
Those words made the surroundings fall into silence.
“Okay, it’s useless to say these things now. If you can’t retreat now, you can only continue to attack and defend.” The general took a deep breath and raised his head with a determined expression, “Waiting for the uncle to break through the siege, or for reinforcements to come.”
The former sentence made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and the latter sentence discouraged them.
“Uncle must still be alive, and the Jin people are still mobilizing troops to attack.” The general said, “We still have hope.”
How else could it be?
Retreat is also death, advancing is also death, then, wait for death.
There was a dead silence in the gully, and suddenly the ground shook, followed by the howl of horses’ hooves and the light of torches.
“The golden man is here again!”
The people in the gully shouted and turned pale.
This time, they didn’t even give them any breathing time. It seemed that they didn’t have the patience to tease them.
The officer raised the knife.
“Let’s form, fight,” he said hoarsely.
These remnants of spears, what formation can they have against the cavalry of the Golden Man, and it will be over in less than three shocks.
The soldiers clenched their spears and jumped out of the ditch. At the moment of death, they suddenly became numb.
The cavalry hadn’t approached, and the buzzing sound of breaking the air sounded, and the soldiers who were about to form had to jump back into the gully in a chaotic manner.
Pupupu’s arrow fell to the ground, and what was shot was a rocket, UU reading www.
sonicmtl.
com The gas was burning in an instant, and the surrounding gully was bright and clear, and the soldiers and generals in the gully were like lambs to be slaughtered.
The golden soldiers who were getting closer laughed wildly.
A soldier suddenly grabbed the crossbow and shot the last arrow at the golden soldier.
This soldier’s archery skills are excellent, and he can accurately fly to the leader of a golden soldier.
With a bang, the golden soldier raised his hand and raised his rattan armor to block the arrow, raised his hand mockingly, and pulled the bow to release the arrow.
Under the light of the fire, the soldier groaned and was shot through by the arrow and fell backwards.
The laughter was louder.
Not only despair before death, but humiliation.
The general jumped out of the gully without saying a word, holding the knife and rushing towards him.
He wants to face the cavalry with his own flesh.
It’s dead anyway. If you get close, you might be able to hack a golden soldier to death. All the soldiers jump out, whether they can run or can’t run, whether they have full arms or stumps, they hold their weapons and bite tightly. He moved forward silently with his lips pressed.
A hum ripped through the night sky.
The officer stared round and round waiting for the moment when the arrow cluster came, but the next moment he saw the golden soldier with a bow and crossbow in front of him howling and dismounting.
what happened?
The general was stunned for a while, and another wave of buzzing sounded, the general raised his head subconsciously, and saw countless sharp arrows flying above his head by the firelight behind him.
Came from behind and went to Jinbing.
behind!
The general turned his head in disbelief, because the fire was blocking his line of sight and he couldn’t see anything, but he could hear it.
Hearing the terrified and angry cry of the golden man, hearing the scream of the golden man falling to the ground, and hearing the vibration of the ground in the night like a thousand horses rushing towards him.
Reinforcement!
Reinforcement!
