Colonel Ruan Jin's speed can definitely be said to be one of the best in the Jin army. As Yan Tao's brother-in-law, Ruan Jin is very popular in the Jin country. Although everyone knows that this person is not very capable, they can't stand up to him. A good brother-in-law, my brother-in-law also has a good uncle.
After such a relationship, coupled with Ruan Jin's sweet mouth, he can praise you both inside and outside of his words. Even the leader of the Kingdom of Jin likes to use the affectionate title of you, little brat, sometimes.
But Ruan Jin is more afraid of death than Yan Tao, and he is very good at bullying others. He handles many of Yan Tao's dirty work, so he is naturally more trusted.
Yan Tao deliberately followed his team this time in order to give his brother-in-law more say in the future.
I just didn’t expect to encounter a hard idea halfway.
Ruan Jin's words about leaving green mountains without worrying about having no firewood deeply penetrated into Yan Tao's heart. The more he listened, the more he felt it made sense, and his words were quite concise.
The battle ahead was stalemate, and Colonel Ling Shuang led more than a hundred people to resist very hard. Wu Chengju's troops came with the intention of revenge. They were mainly worried about the humiliation of their ministers, and they were mainly worried about the humiliation of their wounded ministers.
Of course, shame must be washed away with blood.
"Ruan Jin, you can lead a team of troops to the top in person now. After your brother-in-law breaks the back camp, you can quietly retreat back. Do you hear me?"
Ruan Jin was a little hesitant, but he did not dare to refuse and could only nod his head unwillingly and said: "Brother-in-law, you must hurry up."
"Hurry up!" Yan Tao is very big-headed. His brother-in-law is strong in everything, but he is afraid of death. If he hadn't supported him, how could he have achieved a brigade rate? Even training, if he hadn't brought the most capable Ling The two factions couldn't bring it out at all.
However, this kind of person also has an advantage. He knows how much he weighs and who his backer is. He doesn't like Ling Shuang. Even if he hates Ling Shuang, he has never made Ling Shuang feel sorry for him in the army.
Ling Shuang's force can be said to be the number one among Yan Tao's army. Even Ju Chuan could not survive fifty rounds, but it was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands. The Jin army's armored soldiers had a sufficient numerical advantage coupled with Wu Chengju's force. It was also not bad. Although Ling Shuang rushed left and right and killed many Jin soldiers one after another, he still could only hold on.
There were fewer and fewer soldiers around him, relying solely on Ling Shuang's own prestige and force to support him.
Wu Chengju commanded the soldiers to try to separate Ling Shuang from the other soldiers.
When Ruan Jin rushed up with his men and horses, Ling Shuang had just forced Wu Chengju back. He was overjoyed when he saw this, and the strength in his hands seemed to have regained a bit.
"Brothers, reinforcements are coming, kill them!"
Outside the Jinjun camp, company commander Min Er and his soldiers finally went around to the back and found a place that was easier to destroy.
"superior!"
A group of soldiers quickly took out ropes and a few axes found in Jinbing's camp and started hacking at the wall.
The dull sound quickly attracted the attention of the Jin Army. The Jin Army soldiers in the rear camp were suddenly panicked, but after seeing that the Jin Army was blocked outside the camp, they regained some courage.
Several soldiers also found bows and arrows, picked them up and started shooting.
Yan Tao quickly received the news, and his uneasiness became more and more serious.
"Assemble the archers and deal with the enemies behind first."
The soldiers of the Jin army barely suppressed their uneasiness, and the crossbowmen who had just recovered went into battle again and fired across the wall.
But the Jin army was obviously much better prepared than before. They searched for a lot of shields and put them on their heads.
The arrow struck the wooden shield and made a clanging sound, messy but full of pressure.
Seeing that the effect was ineffective, Yan Tao deployed his long-armed soldiers to stab each other back and forth through the gaps in the village wall, and screams soon began.
Ling Shuang and Ruan Jin, who were fighting in the front, were startled and looked back quickly. Ling Shuang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the enemy did not attack.
But Ruan Jin was a little paralyzed with fear. The shouts of death coming from behind meant to him that his side was probably being outflanked from both sides.
At this time, the sky was starting to get a little brighter, and the darkest part of the night had passed. Ruan Jin could see it clearly, and the fear in his heart was infinitely amplified by the eye-catching red blood splashed on the wooden wall.
Perhaps the biggest contributor to this battle should be him.
Min Er was still struggling to tear down the wall, Ling Shuang and Wu Chengju were still fighting each other, and Guan Cheng had rested and found his sword again and came up from behind with more than a dozen soldiers to support him.
In short, everyone is trying their best, but Ruan Jin wants to lie down.
Once the thought of life overwhelms reason, it becomes desperate.
Ruan Jin quietly retreated with a few soldiers, and after withdrawing from the fighting team, he ran towards the place where Yan Tao was.
But the good thing is that he didn't yell about defeat, defeat or anything like that.
Yan Tao, who was anxiously commanding his soldiers to resist the Jin army in the rear, became angry when he saw what a waste he was.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, are we surrounded?" Ruan Jin asked hurriedly, unable to hide the panic in his eyes.
"You're a piece of trash, worse than a pig. Why are you panicking when I'm still here!"
"Yes, yes, brother-in-law is right. But brother-in-law, look, look." Ruan Jin pointed behind him and said to the soldiers from both sides: "Jin Army, maybe they will come in soon, and we will be surrounded." , when the time comes, I won’t be able to run away even if I want to.”
Yan Tao was so angry that he picked up a whip and whipped it on Ruan Jin: "Nonsense, can't I see it? You are just a pig. If I didn't care about you, I would be a donkey!"
"Get behind you!"
"Hey. Okay."
Yan Tao came back to his senses and never felt that the situation was as difficult as it was today.
More than half of the soldiers have died in the battle. The reason why they have not yet been defeated is entirely due to the enemy's insufficient strength and the fact that there are Ling Shuang and other soldiers in front who are desperately resisting.
Yan Tao's eyes fell on the panicked Ruan Jin, and he couldn't help feeling angry again.
"What's the plan for now?" Yan Tao said to himself.
Standing on the chariot, you can see the whole thing clearly.
An hour has passed since the two armies fought late at night. Such a high-intensity night battle has made the soldiers on both sides very tired. Now it depends on who can't hold on first or who has reinforcements.
"Come here, beat the drums to help the battle, I will personally lead the troops to attack!" Yan Tao suddenly made a decision that surprised everyone.
"Brother-in-law, no!" Unsurprisingly, the first person to object was Ruan Jin.
Yan Taocang screamed and pulled out his sword, put it on Ruan Jin's neck and said sternly: "Idiot, I almost ruined a big thing because of you. If you dare to back down again, I will definitely kill you!"
Ruan Jin was so frightened that he fell to the ground: "Brother-in-law..."
"Shut up! This general is Dajin Zuo Sima. How can I have an affair with you in the army?"
"Now I order you to lead my troops to charge quickly, otherwise I will kill you immediately!"
Ruan Jin had never seen Yan Tao look like this before. He was so frightened that he kept making promises, and finally had no choice but to charge forward again with his men.
At this time, Ling Shuang was already scarred and despairing. He had been in the army for more than ten years and had been following Yan Tao. In his impression, although Yan Tao had shortcomings, the slight shortcomings of a manly man were not considered. As long as he is not afraid on the battlefield, he is a good man. What happened to the greedy and lustful man who keeps his head in his waistband all day long to protect his family and country?
But today it refreshed his understanding.
He didn't see the troops and horses he promised to support when they came up. On the contrary, the hundreds of soldiers he brought with him were basically dead or injured.
The drums from behind suddenly rang, and Ling Shuang suddenly became excited. This was the signal for the entire army to attack. He had waved the weapons in his hands to the drums countless times and together with Pao Ze defeated the enemy on the opposite side.
Ling Shuang looked back, and sure enough, Ruan Jin rushed up with his troops again. There were more than 200 people in the crowd.
Yan Tao in the rear was organizing his last troops and seemed determined to fight to the death.
Ah~~~
Ling Shuang roared angrily and kicked a Jin soldier to the ground. The long sword in his hand followed suit and stabbed into the enemy's stomach. Then he twisted his hands and pulled them out. Blood splashed on his face, making him even more ferocious. .
This made the surrounding Jin soldiers pause, and there was a hint of fear in their hearts.
Wu Chengju looked serious as he covered the wound on his arm in the crowd. This guy was really difficult to deal with.
Guan Cheng from the rear looked anxious. The two sides fought fiercely near the corridor of the front and rear camps for half an hour. Every moment, someone fell and someone died in the battle. However, they were still unable to break through. Wang Ye beside him was still in a In a comatose state, blood oozed from the hastily bandaged wounds.
Could it be folded here?
Guan Cheng had a terrible premonition in his heart and shook his head quickly.
Either way, it’s unlucky, bah bah bah!
The drums in the enemy army sounded, and Guan Cheng almost had to swallow his last mouthful of saliva, and then he realized that the enemy army was going to fight back desperately!
This is great!
Nowadays, Wu Chengju is only in his early 400s, and he is already struggling. If the enemy increases his troops, whether he can stop them is a question.
In fact, Guan Cheng didn't know that Yan Tao only had less than 400 troops left after sending Ruan Jin and more than 200 people out, and that half of the more than 300 people were sent to prevent the Jin army from breaking through the wall. The remaining people don't even have weapons, let alone armor.
And Guan Cheng had all the armored soldiers in his hands.
No matter what, he won't even be able to go to the fiefdom without the soldiers.
If a person dies, a bird will look up to the sky, and he will not die for tens of thousands of years!
It's time to fight.
"Left and right! If you kill an enemy soldier, you will be rewarded with ten gold coins. If you kill an enemy general, you will be rewarded with a hundred gold coins. If you capture an enemy general alive, you will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins! Kill with me!"
It is not clear whether there are cowards under heavy rewards, but there must be brave men under heavy rewards.
Thousands of gold, one gold for one month as a soldier, which is equivalent to ten months' income if one has a head.
Since ancient times, wealth and silk have moved people's hearts. Isn't it just for the sake of glory and wealth and to make a future on the battlefield? What lofty ideals can a soldier have?
The eyes of the Jin soldiers looking at the enemy suddenly turned green, like wild wolves who had been hungry for many days and saw a little sheep.
The energy that was originally exhausted seemed to suddenly emerge, and the numerical advantage that they originally had was further expanded at this time.
Wu Chengju personally led a few skilled soldiers to besiege Ling Shuang. As long as he could kill the enemy warrior in the shortest time, it would mean victory was in sight.
The soldiers on both sides knew that this was the final moment, and their potential was infinitely unleashed at the moment of life or death. The desire for survival supported the Jin soldiers, and the reinforcements coming from behind gave them a certain amount of comfort and information.
Yan Tao couldn't remember the last time he personally led troops to charge and kill the enemy. However, he had already gained fame on the battlefield. The moment he picked up the sword again, a long-sleeping pride in his heart reawakened.
Yan Tao rushed into the formation like a tiger with a long sword in his hand. He thrust the sword forward and stabbed it in easily. The blood just splashed on his mouth. Yan Tao stretched out his tongue and licked it. It had that familiar taste.
"Hahaha! So happy! So happy!"
Under the stimulation of blood, Yan Tao felt as if he had returned to the very beginning. At that time, he was just a track leader, leading four old brothers, including Ju Chuan. The five of them were like killing gods in Peng Guo's army. He was invincible in Zongheng. In that battle, he captured Anchang County in Yangxia County for Xiandeng, completely separating the two countries of Peng and Shu.
"Left and right!" Yan Tao shouted in high spirits.
"Here!" The soldiers beside him promised in a loud voice.
"How dare you follow me to drink the blood of the enemy!" His heroic spirit reached the sky, vowing to kill all the enemies in front of him.
The soldiers around the guards, including Ling Shuang and even Ruan Jin, seemed to be infected by this heroic spirit. They all shouted in unison: "I am willing to follow the general to make meritorious deeds!"
"Okay! Follow me and kill the general out!"
The morale of the Jin soldiers was greatly boosted, and the front line that had been retreating steadily stabilized instantly, and there were even faint signs of fighting back.
Guan Cheng and a few guards finally squeezed to the front while no one was paying attention. At this time, Yan Tao had just finished loading his fork, waving and gesticulating as if he was looking forward to Zixiong.
Well, Guan Cheng also had to admit that this guy's appearance at this time was really good.
So Guan Cheng picked up a long sword, looked at the general standing out from the crowd, and held his breath.
