Chapter 784 is coming
On the eighth day, the Chu army’s siege ended.
Qu Peiluo was sitting on a chair, and Fan Zhengwen was helping him bandage the wound on his shoulder.
When the fighting was going on during the day, Qu Peiluo was hugged by a Chu soldier and was almost thrown off the city wall. Fortunately, a family member named Qu beside him was able to protect him and risked his own life to help Qu Peiluo. Luo blocked this incident.
No sadness, no sadness. No one here has the leisure to have any feelings of remembrance for the dead Pao Ze. Those who died in battle were just taking the first step and waiting for themselves in front.
Today, it was very difficult to guard, and the feeling was almost the same as the first day.
Like a circle, it is drawn out and finally drawn back.
Fan Zhengwen did a good job in pacifying the people in the city, and also in rewarding the army. He did everything he could;
Qu Peiluo's command had no problems, and he saw no mistakes. Repairing leaks is like a paper framer, reacting quickly and not slacking off at all;
But the nature of war does not mean that you will definitely win if you make no mistakes. It also depends on what your opponent is like.
Under the rapid attack of the regular army of Da Chu for eight consecutive days, it is really not easy for Fan City, a city guarded by a mob, to hold on until now.
Those cities in history that often held on for months, half a year or even longer were mostly because the siege party wanted to trap and exhaust the people in the city, and did not attack continuously for days.
After the bandage was finished, Fan Zhengwen went down and personally brought a basin of hot water with two towels hanging in it.
Qu Peiluo closed his eyes,
Fan Zhengwen personally wiped his face with a towel.
When he threw the towel into the basin again, the blood stain had spread.
Fan Zhengwen was not afraid of trouble and brought a new towel to help Qu Peiluo dry the water stains on his face.
Qu Peiluo then slowly opened his eyes.
Then, washing hands;
Finally, Fan Zhengwen came over with dishes, three dishes, one soup, and a pot of wine.
When Fan Zhengwen was about to pour wine, Qu Peiluo reached out to pick up the wine pot and filled the wine bowl.
Then, he took the wine bottle and placed it in front of Fan Zhengwen.
Fan Zhengwen was stunned for a moment, smiled, stretched out his hand to pick up the wine bowl, and the two touched it.
The head of the Fan family lowered his wine bowl so low that he basically only touched the bottom of the wine pot.
Qu Peiluo raised his head and took a big sip.
Fan Zhengwen raised his head and took a big sip. Then he choked and started coughing violently.
"Haha."
Qu Peiluo laughed,
"You are a slave doing business, but your ability to drink is so bad."
" When I reach the level of the Fan family, I don’t bother to greet the people below. As a slave, I am not qualified to sit and drink together.”
Qu Peiluo stopped after a brief taste, put down the wine bottle, and said:
"I probably won't be able to hold on tomorrow, so tonight..."
"What do you want to do, young master?"
“Prepare the Chu army to attack at night.”
……
The Chu people launched a night attack tonight.
But because Fan Cheng was on guard, he was repulsed.
That's what a night attack is. Without sudden support, it will be difficult to achieve any effect.
"You said that we probably won't be able to defend it tomorrow, but the Chu army on the opposite side doesn't even want us to see the sun tomorrow." Fan Zhengwen said with emotion.
"Okay, next..."
Fan Zhengwen looked serious and said; "What are you going to do next?"
"Eat midnight snack."
...
The sun rises in the east.
Nian Yao was wearing armor and standing in front of the army.
After several days of siege, the number of the mob under his command not only did not decrease with the consumption of the siege battle, but instead doubled.
This is the characteristic of the mob. When you are on the winning side, they will snowball and get bigger and bigger.
The Dugu family's army is in the south and attacks the city on a large scale every day. General Nian is in the north. Although the siege momentum is not as strong as the front, the flag is bright.
Furthermore, if Chu Di Cao Mang and local snakes want to take advantage of the situation, they also know that the real aristocratic circle, no matter how downcast they are, is still not something they can squeeze into. In comparison, Nian The general's background seems to be extremely "people-friendly".
“Eight days.”
Nian Yao looked at the city wall in front;
He originally thought that taking the road from Jin to Mengshan would be the most time-consuming and dangerous part of the plan. After this part was over, Fan Cheng , it’s at your fingertips.
But I didn’t expect to be delayed here for so long.
The planned cleanliness did not appear, which made Nian Yao feel a little regretful.
"General?"
The Eighth Prince has been staying with Nian Yao.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will be almost ready to enter the city this afternoon."
......
To the south of Fan City,
a man with white hair Dugumu beat the drum himself.
After eight consecutive days of siege, even though he had many soldiers and horses under his command and could rotate them appropriately, it still made his soldiers extremely tired.
The young man who once said those shameless words in front of him did give him a big surprise.
But,
That’s it.
If it was Qu's Qingluan Army that was defending Fan City, then he would probably have no choice but to be trapped in the isolated city and wait for the food and grass in the city to run out.
It's a pity,
This young man is not commanding the Qingluan Army.
Although Qu's Qingluan Army has a small number of personnel, it has always followed the route of elite troops and strong generals.
During the first battle of Wangjiang, the eldest prince tried to turn the tide with a powerful attack, but was pushed back by the Qingluan army, and Li Bao died in the battle.
Later, King Jingnan surrounded the city with an earthen wall, trapping the elite to death without giving them a chance to counterattack on the frontal battlefield.
As for the Qingluan army defeated by Lord Zheng during the battle against Chu, it was actually rebuilt in a hurry, and its strength and quality were not at the same level as the one led by Qu Tiannan.
The Qingluan Army, once known as the first pawn of Chu, has been annihilated by the wind,
Qu family,
should also be over.
Dugu Mu, who was beating the drum, let out a loud shout:
"March!"
......
The predictions of the battlefield situation by both the offensive and defensive parties were correct.
On this day,
Fan City’s southern wall finally fell.
The Chu army kept climbing up, but the defenders were no longer able to drive them down. They could only watch the number of Chu troops on the wall increasing, and at the same time, the defenders were being pushed back.
Soon, like an avalanche, the situation was completely suppressed.
The Chu army began to clear the city wall extremely quickly, and subsequent Chu armies also continued to come up.
Qu Peiluo did not choose to gather the broken troops and then attack, but decisively chose to retreat into Fan Mansion in the city with the men around him who could still command.
Fan Mansion is beautiful and exquisite.
On weekdays, there are many masters hiding there. Any young person who dares to get close to this place will end up in a miserable state.
But when Xiao Xiao was replaced by Da Chu's army, Fan's exquisiteness became a burden that broke his arms.
It is not a Wubao. We retreated here because everyone tacitly chose this place as the final place to die in battle, not because we could rely on it to do anything.
The ancestor of the Fan family was dressed in a red skirt. He set up a table and sat cross-legged on it.
In front of him, all the female relatives of the Fan Mansion, including the famous Jin Chai of the Fan Mansion, were also kneeling there, but no one was crying. They had been guarding the city for days, although they did not go to the real city. They are on the front line, but they have also been busy at the back. Emotionally, they have been prepared for it for a long time, and many people are actually numb.
The Fan family, the last forces in Fan City, are all moving closer to Fan Mansion.
Fan Zhengwen also came back,
He saw his ancestor.
"The Fan family, you have finally done this."
"Are our ancestors going to set themselves on fire?"
The ancestor rolled his eyes at Fan Zhengwen angrily and said: "Although there have been rumors in the world about how terrible the fighting skills of Qi refiners are, but even if I am going to die, I have to help two people support me before I die."
< br>"Two?"
Qu Peiluo also retreated in with his men at this time, holding a shield in his left hand and a knife in his right hand.
One Fan Zhengwen and one myself, aren’t they just two people?
Of course, this was just a last-minute joke.
At this time, when death is imminent, people will naturally become more frivolous, and some emotional things will be magnified unconsciously.
"You two are already going to die, is it possible that you can still hope to survive?"
Then,
the ancestor looked at Qu Peiluo and said with a smile:
“I really didn’t expect that at the end of my life, I would have to die with my master’s family.”
Qu Peiluo nodded with a smile, then turned around and ordered: "Form up the formation. It can be blocked for a while. It is enough to pull one more before death."
Fan Zhengwen looked at the female relatives at home. , asked; "Bai Ling is ready. When the time comes, I will urge you." Let's go on our way first."
The ancestor shouted:
"Don't be afraid, you go down and warm the kang and cook the food. Men, we will be down soon."< br>
The female relatives did not cry, but responded in unison.
If they don't commit suicide and survive, the only thing waiting for them is life worse than death.
At this time, as the Chu troops continued to pour into Fan City, the first batch of organized Chu troops began to attack Fan Mansion. There were also sounds of fighting outside Fan Mansion.
The ancestor leaped up. She was dressed in red and looked extremely dazzling at this moment. She flew over the heads of her own people. When she fell, her sleeves were lifted, and several Chu soldiers were directly killed. Overturned.
But soon, two arrows were shot, and the ancestor’s expression changed.
“Boom!”
Qu Peiluo held his shield in front of him and blocked the arrow.
"Thank you, Master. I almost died as soon as I came out. It's so embarrassing."
Qu Peiluo didn't reply to his ancestor's words,
but to He shouted from behind:
“Where is the dog slave!”
Later, the head of the Fan family raised his voice and shouted:
"My slave is here!"
"Put up the flag for me!"
"My slave obeys your order!"
Fan Zhengwen is not good at kungfu and has poor physical fitness, but it is still no problem to hold up a flag. A Qingluan Army flag embroidered with Qu's clan emblem was erected.
When they saw this flag, the attacking Chu army also stopped.
Qu Peiluo dropped his shield and clenched the knife in his hands with both hands. Around him, the last batch of dozens of Qu's descendants who had been following him gathered.
“Brothers, I wanted to give you wealth, but I made a mistake. When I get down there, I won’t care about you anymore, so don’t come to settle accounts with me.
Qu’s My ancestors have to line up to beat me, the unworthy descendants of the Qu family. It’s not your turn!”
“Hahaha!”
"Hahahaha!"
At this moment,
Qu Peiluo's mind recalled the scene of his father Qu Tiannan when he went to war, and the scene of his wedding day when he brought a group of white horse knights to welcome him. The scene emerged on the green beach, where he was kneeling there, holding a knife and preparing to kill himself.
If he dies,
it will be over once and for all.
It's a pity,
I really want to hug the baby she gave birth to.
"Ahhhhhh!!!!!!"
Qu Peiluo roared:
"Qingluan Army, advance!"
< br>
.........
"General, the city is broken to the south!"
"General, our city is broken here too!"
"General, they have entered the city ”
“Hahaha, I can write a note for Brother Huang.”
The Eighth Prince could not suppress his excitement and almost started dancing.
These days of fighting are a great torture for both the offensive and defensive sides.
After all, the Chu army still had the shackles of congratulating the regent on his enthronement, and no one dared to delay.
Nian Yao looked at the Eighth Prince and felt little excitement in his heart.
The latest information north of Mengshan has just been sent,
The Yan people did not choose to launch an offensive against Mengshan, nor did they want to open up the mountain road to support Fan City.
This is very unusual.
Did the Yan people just abandon Fan City when they knew it was impossible to rescue them?
Nian Yao then stretched out and
said:
"That's right, Tian Wujing left for the West, the Yan people changed emperors, the previous generation left, and the next generation no longer had that atmosphere."
...
< br>To the south of Fan City, I saw that my soldiers began to climb onto the city wall one by one, and saw that the originally blocked city entrance was being cleared.
Dugu Mu finally sat back on his handsome seat.
Finally, I got it.
A general next to him brought a ginseng stick, and Dugu Mu reached out to take it, took a bite, and sipped it in his mouth.
This general is called Dugu Nian. He is a talented person from the Dugu family. He served in the Royal Forbidden Army in his early years and worked under Nian Yao. For this expedition, it was Dugu Mu who made the decision and asked him to be transferred back to him.
"A-Nian."
"Grandpa."
"The matter here is over. Grandpa, it's time for me to step back. We belong to the Dugu family. This army will be left to you to lead next.”
"Grandpa is not old."
"We can't stay in love anymore. We have to give dignity to His Majesty, and only then can His Majesty give us dignity. You keep one of the most powerful troops in this family, and leave the rest to the court for dismantling. , it doesn’t matter if you return to the local army or to the royal imperial army.
It’s time to take a step back. It’s time to take a step back.
There is only so much that Grandpa can do. From now on, it will be up to your generation to stand up and assist Your Majesty in protecting the country of Chu people. Okay.”
“Don’t worry, Grandpa, your grandson will live up to Grandpa’s expectations.”
"Yeah."
At this time, another messenger came to report, and the remnants in the city were still resisting.
Dugu Nian smiled and said: "They are still fighting a trapped beast, struggling to the death. I really don't know what the meaning of their persistence is."
"They are looking forward to the Yan people. Come and save me."
"Grandpa, no matter how powerful this Yan man is and he can't fly, how can he be saved in time..."
"Woooooooooooo!!!"
Suddenly, the horn sounded;
Then, the sound of rolling thunder came from behind.
Dugu Mu stood up suddenly and looked back.
At the rear of the army, behind the camp, dust rose all over the sky, and in the dust, there seemed to be ten thousand drums singing in unison.
"Tiger!"
"Tiger!"
"Tiger!"
Soon,
groups of knights in black armor emerged from the dust and fog. Howling out from the middle, connecting dots with lines, using lines to form surfaces, boundless, with no end in sight!
The black dragon flag and the double-headed eagle flag fluttered in the wind among the army, like the ferocious fangs of a ferocious beast!
Yan Jun,
are here! (End of this chapter)
