MTL - Long Wind Crossing-Chapter 80
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, King Liang subconsciously said: "Impossible!"
If there are only 10,000 people, how can Gu Jiusi be so arrogant, and even lead people to hunt him down?
He has 100,000 horses, who gave Gu Jiusi the courage? !
"You thief, how dare you deceive this king," King Liang drew his sword in anger, and was about to kill Qian San, Qin Si stopped King Liang and calmly said, "King Liang, And listen to him again."
King Liang was stopped by Qin Si, he glanced at Qin Si, gritted his teeth, and told everyone to go down, leaving Qian San and Qin Si in the tent.
Qian San was frightened by King Liang's actions, he shivered and did not dare to speak, Qin Si stepped forward and said gently: "This strong man does not need to be afraid, our prince is a generous person, as long as You are telling the truth. Not only will the lord not kill you, but he will also reward you with a lot of money. At that time, gold, silver and beauties will not be a problem. If you can destroy the capital, you will still be the first. I'll treat you badly."
Qian San slowly calmed down after listening to this.
He passed by the camp just now, thinking of King Liang, thinking of Gu Jiusi, he had this idea.
Leaking the news to King Liang will not only kill Gu Jiusi, but also get a sum of money, why not do it?
Qian San calmed down a bit, and immediately said: "My lord, Caomin's every sentence is true, if there is a half-truth, then let me be struck by lightning, and I won't die!"
Liang Wang stiffened and nodded. He couldn't believe it anyway, there were only ten thousand people in the city. If there are only 10,000 people in the city, wouldn't you be fooled by this hairy kid? !
A young man who is not as good as the weak crown is playing around with him. If this is spread, won't the world be ridiculed? !
But King Liang kept all these words in his heart, without saying much, Qin Si helped Qian Sanlai and asked him about his origins. Qian San honestly explained the cause and effect of the conflict between himself and Gu Jiusi, King Liang and Qin Si were relieved, Qin Si was a little puzzled, and then said: "Then even if you have a conflict with Gu Jiusi, Wangdu is your homeland after all. Aren't you afraid of hurting your relatives and friends for what you've done today?"
"Sir," Qian San smiled, "Caomin is not from Youzhou, but Caomin is from Yangzhou."
"So it is." Qin Si nodded, "It seems that you came from Yangzhou with the Gu family, and you are considered loyal servants, but Gu Jiusi treats you like this, it is really inappropriate. "
"Yeah." Qian Sanyi gritted his teeth as he spoke, "My woman did her best to the Gu family, and I followed them all the way to Youzhou, and did a lot for them, no Credit and hard work, I didn’t expect them to treat us like this. Your Highness,” Qian San turned his head and said with Prince Liang, “The villain has always admired the Lord, and he has long wanted to come to seek refuge. This time, the Lord can meet you because the villain has cultivated for three lifetimes. The good fortune, the villain is willing to be a cow and a horse for the lord, and ask the lord to fulfill!"
Speaking, Qian San knelt down and kowtowed heavily with King Liang. King Liang was comforted by the flattery. He smiled and then said, "Okay, I know your loyalty. You can tell us the specific situation in the city."
Qian San hurriedly opened his mouth and explained the specific situation. King Liang and Qin Si frowned as they listened, and King Liang became furious.
Gu Jiusi didn't know any news in advance and set up the Hongmen banquet to wait for him.
He complained about Qin Si for a while, but he didn't know that he couldn't complain about his subordinates at this juncture. He had nowhere to vent the fire in his heart. After some useless things, he waved his hand and said impatiently, "Drag it!"
Qin Si saw that King Liang was unhappy, and even knew that part of King Liang's displeasure was due to him. He knew that King Liang needed a punching bag, so he didn't speak.
Qian San was rushed in by King Liang's people to stand up. Such a sudden change made Qian San a little stunned. He hurriedly said: "What are you doing? What are you doing! "
Hearing this, Qian San's expression changed immediately, he hurriedly shouted, and exclaimed: "Your Highness! Your Highness don't want it! The villain is still useful, you still need the villain..."
King Liang sneered, Qian San was dragged away by the soldiers, screamed outside, and then disappeared.
After a while, there was a woman crying and scolding outside. King Liang raised his head and said irritably, "Who is crying outside?"
"Your Highness, don't be impatient, I'll take a look."
Qin Si stood up, went outside, and saw Wang Mei kneeling on the ground, holding Qian San's body and crying.
"Who is this?"
Qin Si glanced at the soldier next to him, and the soldier whispered, "It's this person's daughter-in-law, and she has been yelling outside for a long time just now."
Qin Si listened, frowned, he looked at Wang Mei up and down, raised his hand and said, "Cut together, don't let her quarrel with the prince."
After finishing speaking, Qin Si turned his head and returned to the tent. When he came back, it was quiet outside. When King Liang saw him coming back, he said irritably, "What's going on?"
"It's Qian San's wife," Qin Si said respectfully, "It's been cleaned up."
King Liang nodded and didn't care. After a while, he finally said, "I think we can go back."
Qin Si had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and he calmly said: "What this person said does not seem to be false, and his subordinates also think that they can go back."
At first, I didn't know the reality of the city, and I was terrified. Now I know that there are only 10,000 people in it. King Liang's spirit is greatly improved, he immediately rushed out, reorganized his team, and immediately killed him again!
, leaving no doubts, so the army cheered instead.
Liang Wang knew that Gu Jiusi must have thought that he had left now, and he turned back hastily, which caught Gu Jiusi by surprise, and soon became the key to victory.
Then King Liang hurried all the way and killed him with someone.
At this time, the army in the city was disarming and resting, or consigning the wounded and corpses. Everyone was chatting, and many men were proudly boasting about how vulnerable King Liang's army was.
Gu Jiusi also arrived at home, he took a hot bath, changed clothes, and had breakfast with Liu Yuru.
When he came back safely, Liu Yuru felt extremely happy. There were several more dishes in the morning. Gu Jiusi noticed Liu Yuru's joy and couldn't help but say, "So happy, have you been worried all night?"
"No."
Liu Yuru hurriedly said, "I slept all night, and when I woke up, I heard that you won the battle."
Gu Jiusi opened his mouth to say something, but finally swallowed it.
In fact, when he came back, he heard that Liu Yuru knelt in the Buddhist hall all night.
He should have known, how could he hide from her, she has always lied to him, and he has never been able to hide anything from him.
He smiled, looked at Liu Yuru's dark eyes, put the vegetables in her bowl, and then said: "Alas, the first time I won a battle, my heart suddenly became at a loss."
"Dazed what?"
Liu Yuru was a little strange, Gu Jiusi seemed rather worried and said, "I don't know whether you should call me your lord in the future, or call me general, or continue to call you general."
Liu Yuru pursed her lips, knowing that he was joking: "Then how did you finally come up with it?"
"I thought about it," Gu Jiusi said seriously, "It's better to call me husband, save time and effort," he winked, "It sounds nice."
Liu Yuru laughed out loud and was about to say something when the two of them felt obviously moving.
After a while, Mu Nan rushed into the main hall and said anxiously: "Master, King Liang is back!"
Gu Jiusi stood up suddenly, and before he even had time to put on his coat, he rushed out.
Seeing that Gu Jiusi was so anxious, Liu Yuru hurriedly called someone, took the armor and fox fur to warm the stove, and followed him on horseback.
Gu Jiusi hurried to the downstairs and saw Ye Shian directing people up the city wall from a distance. Gu Jiusi stopped and asked anxiously, "How's it going?"
"Go up and take a look!" Ye Shian said anxiously, and then shouted with the people behind, "Put the oil up! Hurry up!"
Gu Jiusi strode across the steps and rushed up to the gate tower. He saw King Liang's army approaching not far away. The army stepped into the firing range, and Gu Jiusi shouted: "Fill the arrows!"
The waves rushed forward, and the soldiers behind King Liang kept shouting: "Crush! Those who retreat are beheaded! Those who climb the city will be rewarded with a hundred taels! The murderers are one or two!"
Gu Jiusi put three people in a line, lined up on the city wall, immediately let the second row follow after the first row, the first row went to the end to change the arrow and draw the bow, and the second row After shooting, let the third row keep up, and then go to the end to change the arrow and draw the bow.
The people under the city tower seemed to be completely indifferent to their lives. Their bodies fell on the battlefield, their blood stained the land outside Wangdu.
Every time they moved forward, the road was paved with corpses, but they still moved forward.
Outside the moat, they fell into the river one by one, screaming and killing each other.
Gu Jiusi looked at such a battlefield, with such a posture, his heart trembled slightly.
This is a completely different battle from the previous one. In the last battle, he was playing tricks, and King Liang did not intend to fight head-on, so one chased after the victory, the other fled in a hurry, and the other did not intend to kill them all. One also knows how to save one's life.
However, it is different at this moment. Everyone is desperately trying to grab this inch of land. The sense of urgency that human life is like a mustard clearly emerged in Gu Jiusi's heart.
He wanted to stop them, stop them.
Why?
One hundred taels of those who climbed the city, and one tael of each beheaded.
A human life is only worth one or two?
The blood-stained panic made him at a loss, but he couldn't think about it, he only knew that he had to defend this city, behind this city wall, were the people, his parents, and... Liu Yuru .
The moment Liu Yuru's face appeared in his mind, the moat was already full of corpses. In some places, corpses piled up, filling up the shouting, so King Liang's soldiers stepped on the corpses and rushed under the tower, erecting the ladder.
There are generally soldiers at the top of the ladder. As long as the ladder touches the city wall, these soldiers will slash and kill, and at this moment, the people below the ladder will immediately rush up.
Gu Jiusi kept the soldiers constantly replenished. As long as a ladder came up, he and some wandering soldiers rushed over to help cut the opponent down, and then poured kerosene down.
The rocket and the kerosene cooperated, causing the tower to burn into a piece, screaming one after another, Gu Jiusi poured kerosene and arrows on the tower, and his face was stained with the man who had just climbed up the tower. Blood stains, the whole person is shaking.
The strong siege continued from the afternoon to the evening. In addition to the ladder siege, the most difficult place to defend is the city wall. They built bridges and used ramming pillars to continuously hit the city gate.
The chariot that hit the city pillar is the key to block the object. From the moment it entered the range, Gu Jiusi made people keep shooting and killing the person who sent the chariot. The chariot was struggling to move on the battlefield. Almost every move is at the cost of human life. However, at night, due to poor visibility, the city pillar finally came to the city gate.
When the first sound of hitting the city gate sounded, Gu Jiusi knew that it was not good, and he hurriedly dispatched his troops to stand by under the city tower.
There are two small city gates under the city tower, almost only one person can pass through. After entering the small city gate, about five feet away is the main city gate. Gu Jiusi asked people to open the main city gate, and transferred the elite to the city gate. He only waited for the outermost city gate to be broken, and then fought directly, guarding the small city gate to fight, blocking the opponent with a human wall. attack.
When the sound of hitting the city gate sounded, Liu Yuru was counting the number of weapons. She turned around and said in horror: "What sound?!"
"I'm afraid I hit the city gate."
Yin Hong was also a little scared, Liu Yuru heard this, gritted her teeth, handed the account to Yunyun, and said with Yunyun, "I'll take a look."
Speaking, Liu Yuru rushed out.
She rushed all the way to the city gate, and saw that the soldiers under the tower were already in chaos. She went up to the tower and saw Gu Jiusi killing the enemy with a knife. As the flesh and blood flew, her whole body was trembling, but she tried her best to calm down. She glanced at it and found that the number of wounded around was increasing. However, many wounded were too late to go down to the tower immediately after being injured.
There are too few logistics.
Liu Yuru immediately understood, she looked carefully at the situation, and hurriedly got down from the tower, she ran back all the way, slammed the door of the street as she ran, and said loudly: "Every villagers and elders, I hope you all It's difficult, everyone come out and help!"
She slapped the door, few people opened the door at first, but as the first door opened, more and more people opened the door and came out.
Liu Yuru panted heavily, looking at the people who came out, everyone was worried and at a loss, Liu Yuru glanced around, and said seriously: "Everyone, now the enemy is out, just relying on Lord Gu And the soldiers can't stop them, I urge everyone, the men go up to the tower as soldiers and wait for dispatch, and the women follow me to transport the wounded."
Everyone was hesitant to hear this, Liu Yuru understood what they were thinking.
Going to the battlefield, after all, it is a matter of life, she gritted her teeth and couldn't help saying: "Do you think you will be fine if you shrink now?! People like Liang Wang, if they are broken today Cheng, believe it or not, today you will be up and down, and you won’t be able to keep a single one!”
"It's not necessarily..."
Someone whispered: "If Master Gu falls..."
"The king of Liang won't leave us! Why does he want to fight Wangdu? He doesn't want money or women. Did he attack Wangdu to provide relief to the common people and become a generation of benevolent emperors?!"
Liu Yuru shouted: "Have you never seen a town outside the Great Wall plundered by Beiliang or do you not know how many cities were slaughtered by King Liang when he attacked Dongdu? It took so much effort to bring down Wangdu. , you thought you could be safe and have your daydreams in the blue sky!"
Listening to Liu Yuru's words, everyone hesitated, Liu Yuru nodded: "Okay, I understand that people do not kill themselves for their own sake."
Speaking, she suddenly pulled out the silver bill from her arms and shouted: "Then we will pay you to hire you, go to the tower today, go up to the tower to see the soldiers who are protecting you. How he was born and died, look at how my husband fought so hard to protect us! You pick up the knife, kill one person and one tael of silver, and let me carry the wounded for ten cents per person, go or not!"
"I'm going!"
A big man in the crowd suddenly spoke up, he stood up and said loudly: "Boss Liu, you don't have to say that money is not rich, if I live, this is what I should do, I don't need to give money. , if I die, give the money to my wife and my wife."
"If you die, I will take care of them and ensure that they will be safe for life."
Liu Yuru broke open, and an old woman next to her rushed out crying: "No, son, the battlefield is dangerous..."
"Mother," the big man patted the old woman's hand and said calmly, "I'm here to protect you and my wife and children, don't worry about it."
"Me too."
As soon as the big man finished speaking, the woman standing beside him walked up, she handed the child to the old lady behind her, looked up at the big man beside him and said, "If something happens to you, I'll take you back too."
The big man smiled, someone opened his mouth, and more and more people around him responded.
Liu Yuru looked at them and nodded again and again. She couldn't tell what she was feeling, but felt an inexplicable emotion welling up in her heart, and sourness stuck in her throat. She took a step back, bowed to everyone, and said seriously: "Yuru is here, thank you."
"Boss Liu is joking," someone said, "This book is also our Wangducheng. What you and Master Gu did for us, we all remember it in our hearts."
Liu Yuru listened, she couldn't help laughing, she suddenly felt that everything was worth it.
She took a deep breath, and then arranged for the big man to say: "Please go from house to house to call people, organize people to come, men and women are divided into teams, if women know martial arts, also go with men .I'm going to count the weapons, you all go to the direction of the city tower, I will bring the weapons over and distribute them to everyone."
After finishing speaking, Liu Yuru ran back to the armory, and asked Yinhong to bring all the weapons, all of which went to the direction of the tower, and then brought the medicinal materials and the doctor together to build a shed not far from the tower.
Under the command of Liu Yuru, everyone ordered what they needed in an orderly manner. The women wore white sarongs, brought life-saving medicinal materials with them, and carried stretchers. The men and the stronger women put on simple armor and raised their weapons.
This all ended in less than half an hour, and at this time the outermost small city gate was finally breached, Gu Jiusi hurriedly transferred a thousand people down, and the attack on the city wall did not stop. Gu Jiusi's knife was blunted three times. As soon as Gu Jiusi's order was issued, Ye Shian rushed up and said anxiously, "Jusi, there are not enough people."
"What is not enough people?"
Gu Jiusi kicked a soldier down, Ye Shian hurriedly said: "Now all sides are besieged, and there are 3,000 people guarding the city on the other three sides, and the remaining 7,000 people are in the east city. , We have already received 4,000 wounded, and now there is 1,000 at the gate and 2,000 on the tower, and we have no one to carry the wounded!"
"Nine thoughts!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Jiusi heard Liu Yuru's call, he and Ye Shian turned back at the same time, and saw Liu Yuru bring people and carry a stretcher up, Liu Yuru stood at the very edge, while the woman They had already carried stretchers to the tower, lifted the wounded in an orderly manner, and sent them down under the command of Yin Hong.
Gu Jiusi and Ye Shian were stunned for a while, Liu Yuru put her hand in front of her and said with a smile, "I was afraid that you would not have enough manpower, so I brought the people from the city to help."
"Don't be afraid," Liu Yuru's voice was soft, reminiscent of the willow branches swaying gently under the spring sun in Yangzhou, "There are 200,000 people in the city, and we are all here."
Hearing this, not only Gu Jiusi and Ye Shian, but also the soldiers shooting arrows by the side, all burst into tears at that moment.
"Good."
Gu Jiusi made a hoarse voice, he looked at Liu Yuru, the girl under the moonlight, so beautiful that it was a bit unreal.
He suddenly felt so lucky in his life.
Meet this person.
He couldn't help laughing.
"I'm not afraid."
There are 200,000 people behind him, Liu Yuru.
Even in the face of thousands of troops, he is not afraid.
The addition of the common people instantly eased King Liang's numerical advantage.
Although none of these commoners had received professional training, the soldiers were mixed with commoners, and with the advantage of the city gate and city wall, they did not let King Liang's army take a step forward.
The sky lit up little by little, Gu Jiusi and Shen Ming were guarding the city wall and the other guarding the tower, while Liu Yuru and Ye Shian sat at the rear, orderly commanding, ensuring weapon supply and maximum Rescue the wounded and greatly reduce the death rate and disability rate.
The initial fear and anxiety gradually turned into a high-spirited fighting spirit as the day dawned.
Wangducheng will not lose.
At that moment, everyone firmly believed that as long as Gu Jiusi was there, as long as Liu Yuru was there, hope would never be broken, let alone lose.
Hack, fight, snare drum.
All voices interweave this morning.
When the sun rose from the east, the earth trembled in the distance.
Qin Si was the first to discover it, and he hurriedly said to King Liang: "My lord, there is an army coming!"
"How is that possible?"
King Liang made an incredible voice. However, at this moment, on the top of the mountain in the distance, the "Zhou" banner was swaggering in the sunlight.
Gu Jiusi stood in the tower and saw the word "Zhou", and couldn't help raising the corner of his mouth.
Zhou Ye was at the forefront, with a petite man beside him who seemed to be a female general.
They rode on horses, shouting and rushing in, and at this moment, Shen Ming shouted loudly and rushed out!
Zhou Ye's army came from behind, and Shen Ming led someone out of the city to attack Zhou Ye from both sides. King Liang's army was immediately surrounded. Gu Jiusi stood on the tower and watched King Liang's army being surrounded and suppressed by Zhou Ye and Shen Ming.
And at this time, he heard a movement behind him, Liu Yuru was wearing a red and white long skirt with white plums falling on the skirt, and on her head was the phoenix step shake that he once gave her. He carried a tray inside, and served wine on a tray.
"I thought, if the city can be held, it should be celebrated, and naturally, it should dress better. If it can't be held, and go to Huangquan together, you should also dress better."
Liu Yuru pursed her lips and smiled and walked up to him with the wine. She put the tray on the city wall, poured two glasses of wine, and then handed a glass to Gu Jiusi, tilted her head and smiled. : "Langjun's first victory should be a toast to celebrate."
Gu Jiusi took the wine glass from her hand, he looked down at the wine glass and smiled, playing with the wine glass, and looked up at Liu Yuru who was holding the glass in front of him, in his eyes, the morning light fell, and the mountains and rivers fell , fell to her.
The beauty is breathtaking and makes people sink in.
Liu Yuru was stunned for a moment, then watched Gu Jiusi stretch out her hand, holding a cup and holding her hand, in a gesture of handing over the cup.
"I wanted to hold another wedding to make up for the glass of wine we drank. But now I find that there is no better time than now."
"Three feet have spirit, heaven and earth testify," Gu Jiusi looked at her seriously, "You are my wife, Liu Yuru."
"The sun and the moon are shining, the mountains and rivers are the match," Liu Yuru looked at Gu Jiusi with a smile, but her eyes were full of seriousness, "You are my husband, Gu Jiusi."
Gu Jiusi looked at her and smiled softly: "I said that I will only have you in my life, do you believe it?"
"You don't have to say it," Liu Yuru said softly, "I'll find out after watching this for the rest of my life."
Hearing this, Gu Jiusi laughed out loud, he and Liu Yuru lowered their heads and put their lips on the wine glass.
The sun rose completely and fell on them. They drank this cup of wine at the same time, and then they could see the sky breaking through the clouds and pouring over the world.
