"Young Master?" Shen Wei patted Zhao Xuanyi's arm and called.
【Poof! 】Zhao Xuanyi was so frightened that his legs weakened and he fell to his knees. When he raised his head again, his eyes looked at Shen Wei full of fear, his mouth kept trembling, and he couldn't say a word!
"Young Master, are you okay?" Shen Wei hurriedly helped Zhao Xuanyi up.
Zhao Xuanyi saw two soldiers carrying away the man who had just died, and then he regained his breath. He leaned weakly on the city wall, breathing heavily, and beads of sweat as big as soybeans fell from his forehead. , I thought to myself that this Shen Wei is really cruel, he just pulls him if he wants to hit him! Just kill a living person like this?
"Young Master, what should we do now?" Shen Wei asked.
Zhao Xuanyi looked up at Shen Wei and sighed, "You can do whatever you want, no need to ask me!" After Zhao Xuanyi said that, he walked towards the city wall. As long as he could stay away from this murderer, he could do anything. He had just survived, but I don’t want to die now!
When Shen Wei saw Zhao Xuanyi being frightened like this, he hurriedly chased him down and grabbed Zhao Xuanyi again. "Young Master, cheer up. The Tatar enemy is not far away. You have to make up your mind as soon as possible!"
"I'll take your uncle!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted loudly. God knows how scared Zhao Xuanyi's heart is now. The aura of the king who was in charge of the three armies and the bravery and fearlessness in attacking the enemy's army were gone at this moment!
"You also heard that the enemy has a thousand people, a thousand people! There are only more than 80 of us, and we only have these defensive equipment. You tell me how to fight? If you are capable, go ahead! Why are you making things difficult for me?" Zhao Xuanyi wondered if this person was sick and why he didn't run away even though he knew he was going to die?
Hearing Zhao Xuanyi's scolding, Shen Wei didn't say anything, but slowly lowered his head. Everyone knew the result, but he couldn't give up, let alone let Zhao Xuanyi give up. This is what he has to do, and this is to use his loyalty Defend Huangling City!
Zhao Xuanyi sat weakly on the ground and looked at the sky. At this moment, his mood was very calm. Looking at the blue sky, he remembered a lot. He could not see such a blue sky and such sweet air in his hometown. What exactly have human beings achieved through technological evolution? Is technological evolution really a good thing?
And the group of people in front of me, why didn't they run away even though they knew they were going to die? Did they get their brains from pigs? They probably didn't know the purpose of their lives, which was just to obey orders. At this moment, Zhao Xuanyi thought of everything, his hometown, his parents, his friends, etc.!
Although he looked calm on the outside, he was extremely confused inside. Shen Wei sat next to Zhao Xuanyi without saying a word. Zhao Xuanyi looked at Shen Wei curiously: "Brother Shen, you knew you were going to die, why didn't you run away? Not letting them escape?"
Shen Wei's eyes were very complicated, and he spoke after a moment, "When I was young, I was a swordsman who traveled around the world. When I was six years old, I followed my master to practice martial arts in the mountains. When I was sixteen years old, I came down the mountain and returned home. However, due to a severe drought in my hometown, the Three years of no harvest!”
"When I returned home, my parents had starved to death and my only sister was missing. I cried at home for three days and three nights. After that, I led a group of young people from the village to the mountains and became bandits, specializing in robbing passing merchants. Traveling, stealing gold, silver and food for the villagers!"
"I know that doing this is against the national law, but my conscience is in trouble! I can't bear to see the villagers starving to death!" At this point, Shen Wei's eyes slowly turned red, with tears streaming down his face. Slowly slipping away with unwillingness and helplessness!
"Later, I met Mr. Zhao who went up the mountain to suppress bandits and captured us all. After knowing what happened, he did not blame us. He took us under his command and made us a nursing home. My life was given by Mr. Zhao. En Tong Let's do it again! Even if I die today, I can't take a step back, otherwise I will harm Mr. Zhao's family. I will never do such a heartless and unjust thing!"
Hearing the answer given by Shen Wei, Zhao Xuanyi was shocked in his heart. Sure enough, ancient people still believed in integrity. Thinking about the era in which he lived, people's hearts were evil. They laughed at you when you were rich, thought you were poor, were afraid of you being rich. Duplicitous, in groups, not very knowledgeable, and very ill-intentioned!
Seeing Shen Wei next to him, Zhao Xuanyi suddenly felt an inexplicable admiration in his heart. Such a loyal man, such a true believer, the man in front of him is a real man. He has never seen such a loyal man in his life, Zhao Xuanyi So envious! For a moment, I felt like it was an honor to die with such a person!
Thinking of this, Zhao Xuanyi's originally fearful heart seemed to be illuminated by a beam of light. Follow this beam of light and your future will be bright! All my fears have dissipated, and all I have is the blood of loyalty!
Zhao Xuanyi slowly stood up and looked at Shen Wei: "Brother Shen, there is really no time for you to wipe your tears. We must put on the defensive as soon as possible, otherwise when the enemy comes, this city will be swallowed up in an instant!"
When Shen Wei heard Zhao Xuanyi's words, he stood up instantly and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. When he looked at Zhao Xuanyi again, he saw that Zhao Xuanyi's face was full of confidence and bravery, without fear or commitment. He seemed to be a different person from just now!
"Young Master? What do you mean by this?" Shen Wei couldn't believe his eyes. Zhao Xuanyi had really changed? There seems to be a general's domineering power behind him!
Zhao Xuanyi smiled slightly, "Since we have to defend the city, what we think about is not defense, but offense! Because offense is the best defense!"
"What?" Shen Wei jumped up in fright, forgetting in his mind, the young master's mind was really broken, so he attacked with dozens of people on the city wall? Isn't that asking for death? It’s not even enough to fit between one’s teeth!
Zhao Xuanyi didn't waste any time and asked directly, "Li Hanyan...? No, General Li's order is to defend Huangling City for ten days, right?"
"Yes! General Li said that reinforcements will be sent to help us in ten days!" Shen Wei replied hurriedly.
"How is the food and grass in the army?" Zhao Xuanyi asked. Now that the troops and weapons are insufficient, the most important thing he is concerned about is the food and grass issue!
"There is no problem with food and grass. If we only have the number of people in the city, we can last for more than half a month!"
Zhao Xuanyi nodded happily. Fortunately, there was at least one condition that he didn't have to worry about. Zhao Xuanyi quickly walked towards the city wall and climbed onto the city wall for the second time. Shen Wei didn't know what Zhao Xuanyi was going to do, so he hurriedly followed!
After Zhao Xuanyi came to the city wall, he saw these fearful soldiers and sighed in his heart. It is better to die than to live, but he cannot relax now. Once people relax, the city will be given away! At the same time, his life is gone!
When the soldiers saw Zhao Xuanyi coming up again, no one knew what the young centurion was going to do, and everyone stared at him with big eyes and small eyes!
"Everyone listen to the order!" Zhao Xuanyi roared, and his momentum instantly increased by a level. All the soldiers stood upright, and the military souls in their hearts awakened at this moment!
Zhao Xuanyi looked at these dozens of people. Although they looked very immature, they were all recruits with little experience. Fortunately, they were young and had strength! "Brothers, Brother Shen and I have just discussed that we must defend Huangling City and not take even a step back!"
The words shouted with great momentum did not seem to have any effect. After all, this was a death order. Although everyone complained in their hearts, they did not dare to say it!
When Zhao Xuanyi saw that morale was so low, he understood it in his heart, but it was not a problem. "Let me ask you a question first, how much is your annual interest?"
Everyone looked at each other, and a soldier whispered, "Twenty copper coins!"
That's two taels of silver. Zhao Xuanyi nodded lightly, "Okay! Brother Shen and I have just discussed that if we can hold on to Huangling City for ten days this time, we will reward each of us with two taels of silver!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces showed a little joy. There must be a brave man under the heavy reward! What about a group of big-headed soldiers? Everyone started talking, wondering if this was true?
Shen Wei grinned at the side and thought to himself, when did we discuss this? There are more than eighty people here, and nearly two hundred taels of silver. Where can I get it for you?
Seeing the improvement of the soldiers, Zhao Xuanyi continued, "I know that everyone is very scared now. In fact, I am the same. The enemy's strength is ten times ours. If we fight head-on, we will definitely not be our opponents. But don't forget, I Yesterday I fell down the city wall and received advice from an expert in my dream. Now I am no longer the same person I used to be. I have a lifelong plan. As long as everyone follows my orders, I promise to lead everyone to defend the city and return to the general. Under his account, get back your bounty!"
As soon as the deceptive words came out, these soldiers seemed to have gained a certain degree of confidence, and their eyes when looking at Zhao Xuanyi became a little tougher!
Shen Wei hurriedly came over to stop Zhao Xuanyi, saying in his heart not to let him blow his mind, and asked him to restrain himself, "Young Master, please speak calmly, we only have a few people!"
"I know, don't worry, Brother Shen!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at the soldiers. "Let me ask first, are there any masons in your group? Are there any who can?" Zhao Xuanyi shouted!
A question has left everyone scratching their heads. What should I do with a mason? "I, I will!" A young man in the crowd raised his hands and shouted.
Zhao Xuanyi hurried over and looked at the young soldier in front of him: "Very good. What's your name?"
"Sun Yan! The younger one's name is Sun Yan!" Sun Yan said with a smile.
Zhao Xuanyi nodded, "Okay, I'll give you ten people. You can choose your own. Build the city gate from the inside with mud bricks. Do you hear me?"
"What?" One sentence scared everyone so much that they blocked the city gate? I have never heard of this style of play in all dynasties!
Sun Yan was also frightened. "Centurion? Are you serious? How can we get out of the city if the city gate is blocked?"
