A smile flashed across Gongsun Wulou's face, but disappeared in a flash. He turned around, still showing an angry look: "Helan Harimu, what do you have to say? I just said these I promised you that there will be no jokes in the army, do you think I am joking?"
Helan Harimu gritted his teeth: "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that you are duplicitous and have no faith at all. Isn't there a lot of us who have suffered from you and been deceived by you?"
Gongsun Wulou smiled and waved his hand: "General Harimu, in the past, I admit that in order to compete for favor and wealth, I did some things that hurt others. I couldn't help it. I used to be afraid of being poor and afraid of being bullied. I don’t want anyone to take away the power of the court. I will give wealth and honor to anyone who gives me benefits. This country has no foreign wars, and its military achievements cannot be assessed. So for whomever I want to be promoted or given a title, I will recommend a few more people to Your Majesty. Of course, I also accepted their money, which made you unhappy, and I can understand that."
"But you jointly signed a letter to punish me, and you also wanted to kill me. In order to protect myself, I had to deal with a few people, including you, General Harimu. You said that you were like me and came from Nanyan. You didn't want to follow me. Let’s work together to fight for our own interests, why do you always have trouble with me?”
Helan Harimu sneered and said: "I, Helan Harimu, are a dignified soldier. I only seek fame and wealth on the battlefield. I never engage in such tricks as bribery and seeking officials. Gongsun Wulou, you have brought disaster to the country and the people, and have brought national affairs to this point. How can you still do it?" Do you want to defend yourself?"
Gongsun Wulou's expression changed, and he instinctively wanted to get angry, but when he rolled his eyes, he remembered the cold face of the black robe, and couldn't help but shudder, and then changed his smile: "General Harimu, what happened in the past is right and wrong. , let’s not talk about it. Now we are trapped in an isolated city, but we are comrades on a chariot. We should work together in everything. After this battle is over, you will come back to punish me and take away my title. I No objection, but if you miss important battles and defenses here because you hate me, in the end our heads will become the trophies of Liu Yu and his Jin army, so what's the point of fighting over them?"
Helan Harimu nodded: "I like to hear this. Gongsun Wulou, if you change your past, you can make great achievements in this battle. I can not care about the past grudges between us for the time being, but If you still have your own plans, and even want to miss a big deal just to gain credit, then don’t blame me for being the first to kill you!"
Gongsun Wulou waved his hand: "I just brought you reinforcements. This is the arrangement of the national advisor and the will of your majesty. He said that he was sitting alone in the palace and could not go out to kill the enemy in person. He was very anxious, but he was the leader of a country. Jun, you can't move lightly, so let me bring the guards and palace slaves who are supposed to protect him in the palace to support the soldiers defending the city. These guards are also very angry and take the initiative to ask for a fight. If you let them go back like this , it’s not just His Majesty’s heart that is chilling.”
Helan Harimu's eyes swept across the faces of these palace guards. They were young, even childish, and their beards were still full of desire to fight. Even as the waves outside the city continued, The drums were beating more and more intensively, and many people's hands were tightly grasping the poles and knife handles. Even their mounts were shaking their heads uneasily. Obviously, they had entered a state of extreme eagerness to fight!
Helan Harimu nodded with satisfaction: "As expected, he is our Xianbei son. Although he is a young man, he is still willing to fight for the country. You are right. I really can't make everyone's hearts cold. At this time, there is no need to distinguish Helan The people of the Tuoba tribe, here, they are all warriors!"
He said this very loudly, even dozens of steps away, so that the sergeants on both sides could clearly hear it. The soldiers of the Helan Department and the palace guards cheered in unison, waving their weapons, and a burst of swords broke through the wind. The sound made the killing and war cries in the city no less than the drums and horns of the Jin army outside the city!
Gongsun Wulou smiled and took out an iron trumpet, and shouted loudly to the cheering Suwei soldiers: "Sons of the Suwei Army, today is the time for you to serve your country and kill the enemy! Your fathers and brothers are currently You are fighting bravely at the top of each city, not knowing whether you will live or die. Although you are young, you are still the sons of Dayan and the sons of Xianbei. You usually stay with His Majesty and practice martial arts hard, so that you can go into battle today to kill the enemy with the enemy's weapons. Use your blood to write your own legend! Go, warriors, the ancestors are watching you in the sky, and His Majesty is watching you in the palace. Victory must belong to Dayan, destroy Wu, destroy Wu, destroy Wu!"
All the guards in the palace turned red with excitement, their pupils were filled with blood, and they shouted with all their strength: "Destroy Wu, destroy Wu, destroy Wu!"
More than ten deputy generals from the Helan tribe rushed out and said loudly: "Brothers of the Su Wei army, now we have to reorganize. According to the current number, forty Helan tribe soldiers will be matched with ten Su guards. Brothers, within half a quarter of an hour, the Jin army will attack the city. Now everyone should form a formation quickly according to the number of people we said. The original captain of the Helan tribe will be the captain, and the captain of the Su Wei army will be the deputy. The sequence proceeds!”
Gongsun Wulou said loudly to the dozens of captains who were in front of the Su Guards: "Follow the instructions of the officers of the Helan Division. After you go to the city, you must kill the thieves bravely. Don't give it to Dayan." Shame on Su Wei!”
With a burst of cheers, the two waves of people began to gather and integrate quickly. Whistles and shouts rang out. After quickly completing the reorganization, groups of sergeants rushed towards the place under the city wall. Sixty or seventy wooden boxes were prepared, and the flags at the top of the city were waving constantly, announcing the movements of the Jin army outside the city.
Helan Harimu glanced at the top of the city. There were three blue flags standing just now, and one of them had turned red. He curled his lips and said, "The Jin army is really out, five hundred steps away from the city, one hundred and fifty steps away." There are many ladders, and it seems that they are here to fight for their lives again. I have to prepare to defend now. Gongsun Fifth Floor, your mission has been completed. Now, please go back with your guards. Tell the Imperial Master that I am here. The city remains, but the people perish and the city perishes, so let him rest assured!”
Gongsun Wulou glanced at the cavalry of the guards just now. There were more than a thousand horses, and more than 900 were standing alone, watching the original owners on the horses running happily towards the city wall. In the wooden compartment, nearly a hundred swordsmen wearing leather armor were still riding on their horses. Their clothes were uniform in color, a conspicuous sky blue, which was the same color as the clothes and armor Gongsun Wu now wore on the fifth floor. Obviously, these are not palace guards and slaves, but Gongsun's personal guards on the fifth floor!
Gongsun Wulou smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, you go up to the city to take command, and I will cheer for you from below."
