The sudden appearance of such an army in the dark night frightened everyone who saw it. However, when they saw the flags of the army in the light of the twinkling fires, their tense nerves relaxed.
The guard pointed in the direction of the flag and shouted, "It's the general!"
Looking closely, they are indeed one of our own.
The guards hurriedly climbed down the tower and passed the news to the deputy general who was guarding the city. The deputy general had drunk a lot of yellow soup and felt drunk. Hearing this, he tried to cheer himself up and used his martial energy to force the excess alcohol out of his body. His eyes became much clearer.
"Is the General back?"
He hurriedly put on his combat boots and armor.
The guards on the city wall simply confirmed the identity of the soldiers and horses below the city, and ordered the soldiers at the city gate to open the gate. With a heavy creaking sound, the city gate opened. The deputy general and others were already waiting under the city cave, and when they got closer, they smelled the bloody smell on the soldiers.
The deputy general asked the leader, "Why do you look like this?"
He knew this man, a fellow villager and brother of the general. He was not very strong, but he was good at dealing with people and had perfected the art of flattery. The general liked to take him with him wherever he went. Because of this, many soldiers looked down on him, thinking that he had no integrity.
"We ran into the bandits led by Shen Xian after we had been out of the city for more than half a day. After a fierce battle, we killed more than a thousand of them and captured two thousand." His armor was covered in blood, and the sticky blood on his cheeks had long since dried up. He had a helmet on his right arm and wounds on his body.
I said, "General, it's right here!"
When did it happen
There is a small word "Chen" written under the flag!
The messenger was sitting on the horse, and the dark shadows around me enveloped me, accompanied by the bloody wind, which made me feel cold all over. What was even more strange was that the messenger Ni Ying's body gradually became blurred, transparent, and dissipated with the wind.
I was suppressed before I could even touch it for years.
But it is easy to detect in the dark night.
The deputy general and two thousand guards were tricked out of the city by Qiu Nian.
What really is the same
The deputy general who led the troops out of the city was still ambitious. He led the troops all the way, led by the messenger, and finally arrived at this "trumpet mouth" in a hurry. The traces of the fierce battle during the day were still there, which made the deputy general's blood boil.
This would result in a slight change in the situation before dawn.
At that time, Nian Nian clasped his fists and said, "Deputy General, are you willing to lend me 700 soldiers? I am willing to lead the troops to help you."
The general's fellow villager shook his head and said, "If you have any instructions, just tell your subordinates to go back and rest well. In eight or seven days, I will be able to bring the head of the sunken bandit up to the king to ask for reward."
He is a bad boy who is ambitious and self-willed.
The general's fellow townsmen and those who have been with us for many years watched us off from the city gate.
The deputy general asked, "General, do you have any instructions yet?"
He only left one sentence that made the deputy general open his eyes suddenly.
The common people who didn't patronize the stall laughed and scolded: "He is a blind mud-legged man, how can he recognize the words under the flag?"
Just when he was about to say that this matter needed to be discussed in detail, a whistle suddenly sounded in the city, and the deputy general and eight others hurried out. A blood-soaked soldier came from the city on a slow horse. The city gate opened a gap that was only wide enough for one man and one horse, and then closed again.
In a split second, a fatal question occurred to me.
The general's fellow countryman said, "I was newly found by the general a while ago. The general is still cold to me, so he must have seen me."
The deputy general asked, "What's the matter? That fellow has no background?"
The wind was still mixed with the smell of blood, and the deputy general was a little uncomfortable, but that little comfort was not worth mentioning in the face of military merits and interests. He urged the messenger to lead the way: "It is better to delay, and meet up with the general as soon as possible to attack the enemy from both sides!"
Along the way, I did think about turning against the enemy temporarily.
The general's fellow townsman was just wondering how to respond. A veteran standing in front suddenly spoke up and said proudly, "How can we do this? The general is so brave and has no enemies. Even the bandits have to avoid their sharp edge. What's more, the bandits are demoralized. A few hundred people are enough!"
The deputy general dismissed the seven men in a few words, and immediately ordered more than 2,000 men to go out of the city to provide support. The city gates were still guarded by my confidants. As the city gates creaked open, the deputy general led his troops out of the city, and left with Chuan Niying.
The general's fellow countryman's expression stiffened slightly for a moment.
Until the tail of the reinforcements disappeared, Nian Nian's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at the general fellow with his hands hanging at his side with a smile. The general fellow was still smiling, but he was sweating inside. I have not forgotten that Nian Nian's face changed color and crushed two obedient colleagues with his bare hands. When Nian Nian's fingertips were about to touch my neck, I begged for mercy frantically.
Upon hearing this, the deputy general was overjoyed and said, "This is good news!"
Two flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty.
The same thought came to everyone's mind -
Big vendor: “Yes, I can read, but the colors are the same!”
The general's fellow countryman smiled flatteringly and gestured to follow.
The official came in respectfully, still in a daze.
The martial energy condensed into the flagpole in his hand, and he thrust it hard, and the job was done!
Unexpectedly, the messenger led the way for a while and then left.
Upon hearing this, the deputy general was delighted: "Really?"
Nuannian waved at me and said, "Take two steps back."
Search for "Spring Gift" on Xiaoxiang APP and new users will receive 500 book coins, while old users will receive 200 book coins. In the deputy general's opinion, hundreds of people are still too many.
The soldier handed over a token with both hands.
The remaining soldiers in the city were not prepared and had no way to resist. The outcome was already decided and I could only accept my fate.
However, we had not yet been led to the middle of the canyon by the messenger, and it would take some time for us to rush back or advance. I glanced at the bottom of the valley inadvertently, and the white shadows that looked like human figures made me feel a little disappointed.
Two thousand captives, or two thousand captives who can follow the retreat of the bandits for the raid mission, if the proportion of elites is high. When the deputy general thought of this, Huo Di remembered something and asked sternly.
The deputy general said righteously: "It's just groundless worry."
The deputy general asked again: "How many people did you bring?"
Is this general who returned from a small victory a fake fellow townsman
But I am Han Hu, who has been so close to me for many years, and can send me to paradise as soon as I show the slightest sign of abnormality. I am afraid of death and dare to act rashly. For many years, I have done whatever he asked me to do and said.
The general's fellow villager quickly pulled the deputy general over and gave him a look.
Apparently, he was content with this for many years.
It's also our fault that we thought of it. There was no movement last night. If we really want to change the owner, we still have to fight all night. Is it not just the common people who thought of it? The officials who came to get off work in the city government also thought of it. We came to report for duty as usual that day...
Nuannian waved his hand and said, "Let me go."
"Let his grandmother go up!"
"only."
When the deputy general saw me like that, he also had an idea in his mind.
My gentle attitude was just a show for the general to see. When the general returns triumphantly and knows about this, he will naturally respect me more.
The city was not lost!
The deputy general ignored the question and turned around. The bloodstained face looked familiar. He should have seen it before. Judging from his attire, he must be an important person. I was pleased and said, "Huh, he has no right to speak?"
Except for the fact that most of the clothes were clean, a small number of them were fished out of the sea of blood. When we gathered together, the bloody aura that hit us made even an old hand like me want to cover my nose. The battle between the two sides was calm. How many people had to die to avoid such a scale
"Oh, the flags are the same now."
The deputy general was suspicious of me because I saw a few familiar faces in my team, all of whom were generals. They were weak but had a good mouth. I waved my hand to signal us to retreat: "Let's go into the city first..."
I continued to nod my head in confusion: "Yes, this is the time."
But the general's fellow townsman thought so, and I said miserably: "We all rely on the general for our prosperity today. If the general is really not in trouble... a thousand deaths would be enough to atone for the crime..."
Yes, that's exactly how the general behaves.
The deputy general was worried, and looked as if he wanted to grow wings and fly to the general's side to retreat with me: "Wake up! How could he tell me so early? How can a few hundred people deal with the remnants of the bandits?"
"Where's the General?"
After dawn, Lu Ji kicked the flag under the city in half.
The general's fellow countryman said, "They said it was left to you to handle."
As we were talking, the troops had all entered the city and the captives were all detained. Time had retreated into the first half of the night, and the deputy general was still sitting there, and had just taken a few sips of yellow soup when this general's fellow countryman came with the general's new love. I was in the wrong mood at the time, and the one who was disturbed by the drinking was Yue: "What are you doing here?"
“That’s wonderful!”
The messenger said, "What a pity that we escaped."
The alarm in my head suddenly went off, and I yelled at the top of my lungs, "It's a bad guy - no trick! Xiaojun, turn around quickly!"
Twist your hands in front of you, bend your waist and raise your head.
The general's fellow villager said with a pale face: "Just now I closed my eyes and fell asleep for a while, and I dreamed of the general being tricked by the thieves. It's not just you, I also dreamed of it... Well, if it's true... How bad is it..."
I answered, "The general led his troops to pursue the bandits."
It was not until I returned to the duty station and saw that my colleagues looked the same that I was told that the city had fallen and that we had a new leader. My colleagues looked at each other in bewilderment.
But that’s not something I can care about anymore.
Manyuan angrily asked, "Why did you allow the eldest son?"
Probably because there are fewer unfamiliar faces in the government office.
The deputy general understood immediately after hearing this. His thick white eyebrows were twisted so tightly that they could pinch a mosquito to death. Disdain flashed in his eyes: "Humph, even if that's the case, I have no right to butt in. What do I know about fighting? The general is brave, but the thief is cunning and treacherous."
For many years, he kept saying, "Let the eldest son go!"
The official regained his freedom with a confused look on his face, but the remaining pain in his arms was fake. I no longer dared to be presumptuous with Nian Nian, but stood aside with a look of confusion and trembling. Until Nian Nian asked me, "Is he unfamiliar with the government office?"
The deputy general was impatient: "What is right here?"
The eight people who saw the token were shocked, and the deputy general reacted calmly, because the token belonged to a general who was unfamiliar to me. The soldier delivered the token and also brought an exciting news. The general led his troops to catch up with the remnants of the bandits, but the bandits were facing a desperate situation and fought a desperate battle. The general intercepted them and needed reinforcements.
In the morning, the big vendor who was out doing business on the city wall felt vaguely that something was wrong today. After thinking for a long time, he decided to go out, so he just thought about it. After finishing his work, the big vendor sat down to rest for a while, and saw the flag under the city wall, and slapped his calf.
result-
The common people who heard that also raised their heads and looked at the flags under the city wall. Hey, the colors of the flags were indeed the same.
The deputy general was naturally willing to borrow troops.
These eight short words made the deputy general shudder.
The general's fellow countryman couldn't relax his brows. He sighed, "This is of course a good thing, but the two sides fought in a hurry, and the bandit Shen led his men to break through. The bandit Shen's men are no match for the general. The general ordered us to escort the captives back."
But my request to fight was flatly agreed by the deputy general.
"Report! Eight hundred plus delay!"
The shouts and sounds of killing came from all directions.
One person said, "Maybe he was dissatisfied with the appearance of the previous flag, so he ordered the embroiderer to make a new one. He really has nothing to do."
I've been following the general there for a few years, and have been involved in more and more bad things. It's a rare opportunity to make a contribution, so how can I let it slip away
We are already trapped in a jar! In the military camp, resistance was also quickly suppressed.
A group of people actually thought of the possibility of the city changing hands.
ambush!
The deputy general looked at the face of the old man with ridicule. It was no wonder that the general was fond of him, but no matter how fond of him he was, how could he entrust such an important task as reinforcement to a thing? This was a bad opportunity to make a small contribution.
The deputy general casually glanced at the soldiers.
I asked, "General, are you ambushing the enemy troops here?"
The deputy general was behind, and the warhorse had walked a few steps. I followed him and asked indirectly: "The general didn't say what to do with the prisoners?"
Many years ago, he ordered me to replace the guards of some important places overnight, pretending to be the general's order. Streets and government offices are the top priority. These guards have done a lot of this, and the general's reputation for brutality makes it difficult for people at the bottom to question him.
Among them, Nian Nian was sitting under the tiger-skin mat at the bottom, with a pile of opened scrolls scattered on the ground. The official in charge of this place was so angry that he wanted to pull Nian Nian up and shouted angrily: "How can he sit outside?"
My heart started beating fast as well.
The official trembled with fear and did as he was told.
The general's fellow countryman nodded: "Of course it's true."
The general's fellow countryman said, "Several hundred people."
He looked at me and said, "Right here."
Then he said, "You know, let him go up."
Yes, but it has nothing to do with us
But Nuan Nian did not do anything to hurt me, he just asked about the daily operation of the government office in a local tone, and the senior officials knew everything and answered one by one. The Nuan Nian behind him, whose background was clear, frowned and cursed "rubbish".
The guards under the city wall saw their "own men" smiling and showing their weapons. They killed them on the spot without resistance, and were instantly confused. Their minds were full of questions like "Who are you, where are you, what are you doing?" Who is mutinying? ?
Whoever picks first gets the worst.
Below his head, arrows rained down like a tide.
Since the messenger was fake...
The prisoners were all used as "prey" for hunting. The generals would first select them to make up for the size of their own side. The remaining ones would be used as cannon fodder instead of doing the toughest and most tiring labor. They were a valuable resource.
