"Kill Di Gou together!"
The deafening sound resounded across the sky in the dusk.
Le Qing rode the horse, ignoring the obstruction of the guards, just like a vanguard, roaring and leading the way. The direction of the long knife was faintly bright in the darkening sky.
He didn't have much time, and just from the mouths of a few old and thin soldiers at the south gate, he knew the desperate situation of the war in Hezhou.
When he was young, he had a bad temper. In his twenties, he dared to kill people with a knife on the street. If he hadn't joined the army, he would have to redeem himself with his military exploits, and I'm afraid the people in the clan wouldn't be able to save him.
But the more he enlisted in the army in troubled times, the more he understood how meaningful these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains were to him.
Just like when he received a letter from his lord. There is such a sentence in the letter.
A soldier who does not defend his country is no different from a pig or a dog.
"Yuzhou Army, come to the city to fight!" About to rush to Beicheng Pass, Le Qing blushed, raised his sword and shouted.
Woohoo.
The Beidi people's siege trombone did not cease.
Not only were the Beidi people who ascended first, but the two huge Hezhou gates in front of the city gate were poorly guarded. As soon as the iron cables of the suspension bridge were broken, the Beidi people had already rushed through the pit trap and pushed the huge siege force. The weapon rumbled against the city gate.
Dozens of defenders, leaning against each other with long logs, were knocked over one by one. Someone wiped the coughed blood on the muddy ground, climbed up again, continued to pick up long logs, and roared against the city gate.
"I can't stand it anymore!"
"Bamboo knife cart, push bamboo knife cart!"
The two Hezhou city gates, starting from the first crack and ending at the two main gates, were knocked open more and more. If they were not made of iron, these two doors would be smashed into pieces.
The city car stopped, and the Beidi people, like wolves and tigers, roared through the gaps in the city gate like a tide, trying to rush in.
"The city ramming truck can't get through, hurry up, put the knife cart into the crack of the door!"
The dozen or so Beidi people who were rushing the fastest thought of stopping when they saw the bamboo swords and carts blocking them. However, he was pushed by the friendly troops behind him and quickly hit the bamboo knife cart. After several rounds of collision, the bamboo knife was stained red with blood, and countless severed limbs and corpses were hung on the bamboo knife cart.
"Block all the gaps! If the Beidi dogs enter Hezhou, we will have no way out!" The last few defenders, using all their strength, encouraged the exhausted defenders above and below the city. .
"Knock Di Gou out and close the door immediately!"
In just a short period of time, countless idiots died in the city.
Dongfang Jing was helped to stand up and looked towards the south of the city gate. It wasn't until he finally saw a Central Plains general running towards him on horseback that he couldn't stop clenching his fists.
"Lame man Dongfang Jing, respectfully welcome the Yuzhou army!"
…
"kill!"
More than 30,000 Yuzhou troops lived up to Jiangshan's wishes and finally arrived in Hezhou. Le Qing, who abandoned his horse and climbed into the city, passed by and looked at the miserable images of the defenders in front of him, feeling a sense of tragedy in his heart.
God knows how these people do it.
"The Yuzhou army takes over the defense and lets the loyal and brave men of Hezhou have a good rest!"
Le Qing's eyes were red, and he cut his palm with the knife.
"A certain Leqing swears that if he doesn't die, he will be loyal and brave to defend Hezhou!"
"Ascend the city!"
The Yuzhou army that came for reinforcements, both new and old soldiers, were all infected by the integrity of the Hezhou defenders. They quickly followed Le Qing's orders and climbed onto the city to fight as fast as possible.
The Beidi infantry, who were still clamoring at first, slowly blocked the gap in the city pass with the addition of the Yuzhou Army. One after another, the Di people climbed into the city, and their bodies were knocked down under the city gully.
The two huge city gates were also defended by the Yuzhou army. After several rounds of fighting, the two crumbling city gates were quickly closed with difficulty.
boom.
Blood beads from countless severed limbs bounced around as the city gate closed.
A Yuzhou general looked at the tragic scene in front of him. He trembled with his hands and tried to help up a defender who had retreated to the side. However, he never thought that as soon as he stretched out his hand, the guard was exhausted and could no longer move.
General Pi's voice was sad and angry, "Report to General Le, the city gate has been closed again! A certain person is willing to issue a military order, but if he cannot guard the city gate, he will kill himself to apologize!"
Not to mention this general, even Le Qing, who was used to seeing life and death, was equally shocked after walking to the top of the city.
He stretched his head and ventured out of the inner wall, only to look down the gully, his body trembling even more. The piles of corpses were piled up in many layers. There were Beidi people and many defenders.
There was a fishy rotten smell that made people's nose sore.
"The little military advisor of Xishu is at the top of the city?"
"My little military advisor is over there, waiting for the general."
Le Qing nodded, looked at the battle at Chengguan, and hurriedly walked towards the inner wall on the other side.
I just waited to see Dongfang Jing and fight the legendary lame strategist. After secretly marveling, Le Qing knelt down without any hesitation.
"A certain Leqing, the help arrived late, please don't blame me, little military advisor."
"The general has exceeded my expectations and arrived a day early. What's the crime?" Dongfang Jing said with a smile, "General Le does not need to be polite. The war in Hezhou is imminent and the Beidi people have not retreated yet. The subsequent defense will be troublesome. Happy general."
"When we left the inner city, my lord told us in a letter that for this reinforcements and the soldiers guarding the city, I, Le Qing, will follow the arrangements of the military advisor."
"Very good." Dongfang Jing breathed a sigh of relief. This time, Le Qing is not a weak young man from aristocratic families. This is what makes him most comfortable.
"General Le, next, the Yuzhou Army will still focus on defending."
Dongfang Jing believed that behind Hezhou, the King of Yuzhou would definitely have reinforcements arriving in batches. Baggage and food supplies will also be slowly transported to the front line.
As long as the war in front of them is stabilized, Hezhou will most likely be defended.
"In addition, there are still remnants of the epidemic in Hezhou City. The original Hezhou defenders retreated outside the city to rest. They are waiting for the epidemic medicine and supplies from King Yuzhou."
"Thousands of people can be sent out in Hezhou City to clean up the plague in the city."
The army of more than 30,000 people suddenly had sufficient strength. Moreover, this Yuzhou army has high morale and excellent weapons and materials.
"Don't worry, little military advisor." Le Qing nodded, "After I wait, the civilian workers who transport supplies and baggage will arrive in Hezhou in at most five days."
"Little strategist, why don't you go and take a rest first? I look at you with a very bad expression."
Dongfang Jing shook his head, "There's no rush. This round of Beidi people's offensive is fierce. We'll hold on to this round. We'll talk about it later. General Le, the war is urgent, please go and guard the pass first."
"Take the order!" Le Qing clasped his fists heavily. He had a different kind of worship for the little military advisor in front of him. He understood that if this little military advisor had not entered Hezhou, the entire border city pass would have been hopeless earlier.
After taking a few more steps, he finally couldn't help it and turned back.
"I, Le Qing, am a rough man and not much of a figure. But I... want to thank the little military advisor for the tens of thousands of people who came after Hezhou, and thank you so much for the loyalty and bravery of Hezhou who refused to retreat."
Sitting in the inner wall, just listening, Dongfang Jing smiled calmly.
