"What's that?"
Old Ge said with a smile: "It's because of ...... Widow Xiao of Liao Kingdom has taken a fancy to the Seventh Master and wants the Seventh Master to be her man. And she plans to let her fifteen daughters serve the seventh master together. β
"Wow~"
All of a sudden, the little ones fryed.
Ergouzi criticized with righteous words: "Liao is really chaotic ......"
"Yes!"
"It shouldn't be!"
"How can Widow Xiao do this?"
ββ¦β¦β
Lao Ge looked at these stinky boys with disdain.
They all spoke like upright gentlemen, and they didn't know how to hide the envy and yearning on their faces.
The second dog asked, "Did the Seventh Young Master agree?" β
Lao Ge said arrogantly: "How can that! The seventh master refused on the spot, saying that he couldn't look down on the old witch of Liao. β
"It's a shame......"
"Huh?!"
"Ahem...... The Seventh Young Master is mighty. β
There are also honest little guys, who came to Lao Ge and said with a smile: "Uncle Ge, look at me, see if I have a little imagination with the Seventh Young Master." If you have one, you can ask someone to help me ask and see if I can go instead of the Seventh Young Master. β
"Go, go~"
This cheeky guy was quickly pushed to the back.
Some people coaxed, and naturally some people sighed.
"It's a pity, the Seventh Young Master doesn't know martial arts. Although the literary style is good, it weakens the reputation of our people. β
"Heh~"
Hearing that Yang Qi couldn't martial arts, Lao Ge Le.
Then, he sniffed and sneered: "Who told you that the Seventh Master doesn't know martial arts?" β
As soon as these words came out, the little ones were hooked up again, and they surrounded Lao Ge one by one.
"Uncle Ge, you said that the Seventh Young Master knows martial arts?"
"Is the Seventh Young Master powerful?"
"How powerful is the Seventh Young Master, can you beat me?"
ββ¦β¦β
Talking nonsense, Lao Ge didn't bother to respond one by one, but said with a sense of remembrance: "I don't know how powerful the Seventh Master's martial arts are." Because the seventh master was in Bianjing City, he only showed his martial arts once. β
"That time?"
Lao Ge said solemnly: "Three years ago, the Eight Princes' Mansion set up the ring to recruit relatives for the Cheshire Lord. That was the only time the Seventh Master showed his martial arts, and it was also the most tragic time that the Seventh Master fought. β
Ergouzi asked, "How is the battle?" β
While reminiscing, Lao Ge told about the ring match in front of the Eight Princes' Mansion at that time.
This time, Lao Ge did not add oil and vinegar, but told them everything that happened that day.
At the end, Lao Ge sighed: "In short, in that battle, the seventh master was seriously injured and lay in bed for more than a month, but I don't think it's a loss." Because after that battle, no one among the younger generation of Jiangmen in Bianjing City was the opponent of our Seventh Master.
Now that three years have passed, the seventh master's martial arts have regressed or improved. I don't know. β
"The Seventh Young Master is really powerful."
"Both civil and military."
The second dog said with a yearning face: "I don't know, I don't know if I have a chance to meet the seventh young master." β
When Lao Ge heard this, he laughed, "You are still young, and you have a chance." This time I repelled the Liao, if you want, I will go to greet your leader and recruit you into the Yang family as a song.
When you get to Tianbo Yang Mansion, you will be able to see the Seventh Master often.
I can't guarantee it, but I can still do things under the Seventh Master in the future. β
Ergouzi said excitedly: "Really? β
Lao Ge glared and said dissatisfiedly: "When did your Uncle Ge lie to you?" β
The second dog scratched his head and laughed silly.
The other little ones shouted one by one: "We are willing to ...... too"
Lao Ge waved his hand with disgust.
"Just you, you also want to join the Yang family? Do you think the Yang family's koji is rotten leaves? β
A little guy patted his chest and snorted: "We're not bad, in terms of the ability to kill the enemy, the second dog can't compare to me." β
Old Ge Lezi smiled: "Even if you have the ability, it depends on your performance." If you're a little better, maybe I'll be kind and give you a chance. β
The little ones are also clever people, and they immediately understood the meaning of Lao Ge's words.
"Uncle Ge, wait, I found a rabbit nest yesterday, and I'll get you a rabbit meat to eat tomorrow."
Lao Ge nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's still you kid on the road." β
The other little ones also expressed their desire to get something delicious for Lao Ge.
At this time, an old pawn who was older than Lao Ge and had one less ear appeared here.
As soon as he appeared, the air around him seemed to turn cold.
"Get out of here."
The old pawn shouted, and the little ones fled in fright.
Lao Ge looked at the old pawn indifferently, and grinned: "Boss, what are you trying to scare them, scare them, and no one will get me meat to eat in the future." β
The old pawn glared at Lao Ge and scolded: "Lao Tzu doesn't want to watch a group of little guys be deceived by you." β
Lao Ge defended: "How did I lie to them? β
The old pawn snorted coldly, and said in a low voice: "What is the situation now, you are an old soldier, you will not fail to see it." Can you fulfill the wish you made to your children? β
When it comes to the situation, the optimistic Lao Ge can't laugh.
As veterans, they have long known how bad the situation at Yanmen Pass is.
There are no reinforcements inside, and there is a strong enemy outside.
It's almost a death-saving situation.
Lao Ge put on an ugly smile on his face and said: "I followed Lao Shuai at the age of seventeen, and I am forty-seven this year, and I have fought for thirty years." Back then, there were more than 3,000 brothers with me. By now, there are less than fifty people left.
One by one, the brothers fell in front of me. I have taken life and death lightly.
Compared with those dead brothers, I have lived more than thirty years longer, even if I have earned it, I have lived enough.
Even if I die in battle, I have no regrets. β
Lao Ge paused, the smile on his face was full of bitterness, and his voice was a little embarrassed, "It's just...... These children are too young, smaller than all my cubs. Watching them die with us makes me feel bad in my heart.
I don't have what it takes to guarantee that they'll survive. We can only find a way to give them courage and give them a hope to try to live. β
After finishing speaking, tears rolled down the corners of Lao Ge's eyes.
The old pawn also burst into tears, and his voice was slightly hoarse, "Back then, I was also a seventeen-year-old handsome. Back then, we had 4,000 brothers following Lao Shuai. I'm left alone. β
The old pawn looked at the backs of the young men who were afraid of him and sighed, "They ...... It's too small, indeed...... It's too small......"
seems to have seen himself back then, and his brothers.
The old pawn choked up and said, "It's too small...... It's so small that you don't know why you want to kill the enemy, so small that you don't know who you're fighting for......"
The old man is fifty-one years old this year, and he is already at the age of retirement in Bianjing City.
At his age, he no longer has the heart to fight for the emperor, for the Yang family, or for fame and fortune.
The reason why he is still on the front line of the battlefield is for the same reason.
The people behind it, the blood flowing in their bodies......
For the nation.
β¦β¦
"Liaogou is here."
I don't know who shouted, and everyone looked outside.
Sure enough, outside the Yanmen Pass, a group of people who were pressed by the black pressure pressed towards the Yanmen Pass.
The old pawn glanced at it, and his brows furrowed.
"The one who walked in front was the Han people from Liaodi."
The pawn immediately judged the identity of the enemy who was at the forefront.
A group of old and weak women and children with sticks in their hands or with their bare hands ran towards Yanmen Pass, crying and roaring.
In Liaodi, the strong Han people, those are all war reserves, just like grain.
The old, weak, women and children are a group of people who can be abandoned at any time.
When these people die, the Liao people will not feel distressed at all, and will even drink to celebrate.
Because there is one less waste that consumes food.
Of course, driving the old and weak women and children to attack the city is also a means.
Once, there were kind-hearted guards, in order not to slaughter the old and weak women and children, Kaecheng let them in.
Then he was attacked by the enemy soldiers hiding in it.
This is also the origin of these four words.
"To kill or not to kill?"
The Volcano Army's soldiers, who had never seen such a scene, asked.
The old pawn closed his eyes in pain, gritted his teeth and said, "Kill!" β
After giving the order to kill the enemy, the old pawn turned to Lao Ge and said, "Sound the gong to warn." β
"Dangdang~"
With the sound of a rapid gong.
The Yanmen Gate was closed, and everyone knew that the war was coming.
Lao Yang arrived at the north gate of Yanmen Pass and the city gate building as soon as possible.
Glancing at the old and weak women and children under the city, Lao Yang directly gave the order to kill the enemy.
It's not that he's ruthless, it's not that he's vicious.
Because at this time, there is no room for mercy.
Once the heart is soft, which leads to the loss of Yanmen Pass and allows the Liao people to break into the Central Plains, then there will be more old and weak women and children who die.
"Whoosh~"
Rounds of arrows rained down.
The people who closed the gate of the wild goose fell like wheat harvesting.
Human life, at this time, seems to be minimal.
Like grass mustard, a large piece of it passed away.
This is war.
Blood!
Cruel!
Sorrowful!
"Help us!"
"Save us, we are Han!"
"Let us in!"
"Give us a way out."
ββ¦β¦β
Under the city pass, the shouts of the old and weak women and children, and the hearts of the volcano army soldiers on the city pass were broken.
However, even if they burst into tears, they could not be merciful, and they would even act more decisively to end the suffering of the old and weak women and children in the city as soon as possible.
"Yang Ye! You open your eyes and take a good look, who are you killing? β
"Yang Ye, in the face of so many old and weak women and children, are you really good?"
"Yang Ye, aren't you afraid of being punished by God?"
"Dog thief! Yang Ye! You dog thief! β
"You don't have the ability to defeat the Liao, but you are slaughtering us Han people here. You're not as good as a pig or a dog. β
"General Yang, I beg you, open the door and let us in."
"Han thief, you don't have the ability to kill the Liao people, but you have the ability to kill the people, your conscience let the dog eat it?"
"Master Yang, Grandpa Yang, please, let us in......"
ββ¦β¦β
The sounds of abuse, pleading, and crying entered Lao Yang's ears one after another, and Lao Yang felt the pain in his heart.
The common people are eager to live, they don't care, and they don't understand the importance of guarding the gates.
Their invective, Lao Yang will not blame at all.
The one-sided slaughter lasted for an hour.
All the soldiers of the Volcano Army on the Yanmen Gate were like walking around in the Infernal Hell, and their conscience was tortured fiercely.
It's a mental torture that's far more devastating than physical torture.
When the city was closed, everyone's eyes were red, and everyone's clothes were wet.
"Roar~"
Someone couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar.
A barrage of roars followed.
The Liao people don't care how tormented the volcano soldiers on the Yanmen Pass are.
The Liao army, who followed behind the old and weak women and children, used the corpses of the old and weak women and children as a ladder to fill in the moat in front of Yanmen Pass.
The Liao army carried ladders, pushed siege vehicles, set up siege crossbows, trampled on the corpses of old and weak women and children, and launched an attack on Yanmen Pass.
At this time, Lao Yang did not hesitate and burst into applause.
"Kill!"
The resentment in the hearts of the volcanic army soldiers at the head of the city needs to be vented, otherwise they will go crazy and even howl the camp.
The red-eyed Volcano soldiers did not skimp on the bows and arrows in their hands.
Rounds of arrows rained down on the Liao army.
"I'm running out of arrows."
After Lao Ge shot the last arrow, he shouted.
Lao Yang made a straight face and ordered: "First put on the gold juice, rolling wood, and stone." β
When the enemy army attacked the city, these three things were the most lethal.
Once the enemy army climbs to the top of the city, then these three things are useless.
A pot of boiling hot gold juice was poured down from the city.
The Liao army under the hot city screamed.
Many Liao people who had climbed half of the city wall fell down.
Huge logs are nailed with sharp iron nails.
One by one, they rolled down from the city, killing and wounding countless Liao troops.
Running out of wood and gold juice.
The volcano soldiers at the head of the city will pick up the rocks and smash them down.
The first attack of the Liao army was forcibly repelled by the soldiers of the Volcano Army.
A mile outside the city, Qidahar led his subordinates to watch Li Chongzhi fight.
Seeing that his men and horses had been defeated, Qidahar frowned and asked Li Chongyu, "Why did you lose so quickly?" β
Li Chongzhi didn't seem to care about the success or failure of this time, he said with a smile: "General, this is just a temptation, the real attack is behind." β
Beggar Har was stunned and said, "You transferred 30,000 Hanmin from me just to tempt?" β
Li Chongzhi replied: "Exactly." β
Beggar frowned, waved his hand, and said, "It's all some old and weak women and children, and if they die, they will die." As long as my people don't die on such a large scale. β
Li Chongzhi flattered: "The subordinates also think so. Only then did these old and weak women and children go to temptation. Next, the subordinate prepared a big gift for Yang Ye. β
Beggar said, "Hurry up, let me see how big your gift is." β
Li Chongzhi bowed and said, "Your Majesty will give the order to officially attack." β
Li Chongzhi commanded into the ears of his servants, and the servants of the Li family left quietly.
On the hillside two miles away, Yelu Xiuge and the Xiao family brothers were also watching the battle.
Xiao Tianyou looked at the retreating Liao army and said sarcastically: "Begging to Har, people are soft, and they are soft in battle, what a waste." β
Xiao Tianzuo frowned and muttered, "I don't think it's like an offense, and it doesn't show the combat effectiveness that a warrior of the beggar department should have." β
Brother Yelu Xiu nodded with a smile and said, "You are right, this is a very good feint of command. It's not like the handiwork of Beggar Har, he doesn't have such skills. Send someone down to find out who was in command of the battle. β
Xiao Tianyou was stunned and said, "This is a feint? Feint with the lives of 30,000 people? β
Jeruhhuge said nonchalantly, "What about 30,000 people? As long as you can win, it is understandable to fill in another 30,000. On the battlefield, victory or defeat is what matters. The king is looking forward to the next war......"
