Chapter 18: The Carnival and the Siege
The cook was cooking with great vigour, and his mouth was constantly muttering. The handyman who burned the fire was full of footprints, and Uncle Bull was hungry. It's still grinding, how did the last cook die. Uncle Bull just slapped him lightly, and the poor guy's head shattered. Don't dare to starve Uncle Bull, you will really die.
Yun Xiao ignored the irascible brute bull, it seemed that this guy was not quite right after entering Jiangnan. Two days ago, I just slapped the cook to death, and today I slapped a cow to death.
A cow, Yun Xiao ordered the cow to be skinned with a gesture. Simmer a pot of good beef and a pot of rice. The beef stew is rice, and every time this guy can eat the whole beef leg.
A fellow walked towards the bull's carriage with a jar in his hand, and the goshawk sniffed the unfortunate fellow with a whip.
"You're fucking crazy, give the bull a drink. How many people will die if you get drunk, and someone will chop up this bastard. The poor Dongou handyman knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, but the tiger and wolf-like Yun family guards pounced and grabbed like chickens. The saber passed everywhere, and the head of the person had already flown far away.
"In the future, it is forbidden for miscellaneous servants to approach the wild cow, and his diet and daily life will be taken care of by our family. So as not to go wrong. Yun Xiao ordered with a cold face, this guy is a big deal if something happens, don't dare to be careless.
When I went out of Dongou City, I caught a lot of strong men as miscellaneous laborers, but I didn't expect such trouble to come out. Yun Xiao led the goshawk into the military tent, and immediately a maid served hot tea. These people are much more well-behaved than those in Dongou City, Clausewitz said. War is violence to make the other side obey our will, and it is clear that these people have obeyed.
"Wei Qing's gang of goods ran back almost bare-assed, this kid is really. Let him defeat the battle, and he will not fail in this virtue. It's really a shame to be thrown home, how can this Jiangnan Han army be so weak. "Goshawk hates the muttering of iron that is not made of steel.
He and Yun Xiao had just returned from the Huiji camp, and nearly two thousand of the eight thousand people had been killed. The soldiers who ran back could no longer be described as slanted in their armor, for most of them had lost their armor. Those who can bring weapons back are already rare good soldiers.
With such fatigue, it is no wonder that Ou Zhenfu and his ilk also have the courage to rebel. Yun Xiao was deeply saddened by the military training of the Han army, which was probably the case in all the southern counties. It's definitely not just an isolated phenomenon in the Huiji area.
"The soldiers of Jiangnan have been tired for a long time, and it is not something that can be changed overnight. Soldiers are fought. Jiangnan has not had a major war for many years. There is no way to do it if the soldiers are tired, and compared to the Northern Army, it is much better. If the northern army was like this, then the Han would have died long ago.
Don't talk about them, it's better to lose your blade. In the future, let them serve as auxiliaries, and besieging Shangsha City required a lot of manpower to dig trenches. These people can just come in handy. It's been three days since you went to get a batch of farm tools. Presumably they have already rested, and the person who went to the jungle to deliver a letter to Ou Zhenfu must have been walking for a few days. If you are lucky this time, it is best to reassign Ou Zhen, and if you can't fall out, you can only leave it to this scourge. Yun Xiao took a sip of the hot tea, and his body was much more comfortable.
"Master Hou has no last resort. That Ou Zhenfu is a Xiao junior. must have been afraid that King Yelang would rob him of his country, and he got the news of King Yelang's great victory. It is inevitable that the starry night will rush back, and as long as our army closely monitors the movements on the main road, it will inevitably be able to discover Ou Zhenfu's whereabouts. Dayuanjun said to Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao glanced at him, this kid is a human spirit who fights. He has more than 2,000 years of knowledge than him, so he can take such a big advantage. If they were on the same starting line, I am afraid they would not be the opponents of this sophisticated calculation.
"By the time you say it's too late, Master Hou has already ordered someone to inspect the jungle road and the small road. Once Ou Zhenfu's whereabouts are discovered. Immediate returns. The goshawk couldn't get used to the style of the courtyard king, and said teasingly.
Dayuan-kun also didn't argue with the goshawk. Seeing that Yun Xiao was silent, he lowered his head and stood aside without saying a word.
"Don't argue about these little things, and the soldiers will surround the sand city at noon tonight. Take advantage of the darkness of the night to seal off the city gates. Not a single rat is allowed to run out of Shangsha City, and let the gang dig trenches. You can't fight, but if you can't dig a ditch, you can die. ”
Yun Xiao also hated iron and steel, and pretended to be defeated. Pretend not to understand. He was so damn defeated. More than 2,000 people died, not counting, but all the equipment was lost. Wei Qing's goods actually had a heartbeat, saying that Yun Xiao made him lose like this. was so angry that Yun Xiao almost slapped him.
Jin Zhu is going crazy, the Han army is so cowardly. His own army is so brave that Shangsha City was almost taken bloodlessly. There is still a lot of grain and grass left in the city. What made him even more excited was that the gold and silver Han troops in the palace had no time to transport them away. Jin Zhu is not Lei Feng, although he sent troops to help his brother. But the benefits are good, especially the benefits of this kind of real money, which naturally cannot be let go.
Ordered his subordinates to pack the gold and silver, and Jin Zhu feasted the village owners and tribal elders in the palace.
Yelang soldiers even found a lot of Han army wine in the palace, and opened the wine seal to smell fragrant. Jin Zhu was so greedy that he scooped out a bowl and tasted it, and suddenly screamed with joy. Maybe I didn't think it was enjoyable, and after tasting three more bowls, I praised the good wine with a big tongue.
"This Han can't fight. Winemaking is a good hand, let's go to the Han realm. It's all this kind of good wine, and this king will take you to Chang'an. I heard that it is the largest village of the Han people, there are ...... There are ten Shangsha cities the size of them. ”
The effect of alcohol made Jin Zhu start to babble, and he had no idea how big Chang'an City really was. In his eyes, Shangsha City is already very remarkable. Ten times larger than Shangsha City, it was already the limit of what he could imagine. If someone sued him, a fang market in Chang'an City would be the size of Shangsha City, and he would definitely not believe that it was true.
The cook's skills are very good, and he is also very good at stuttering. I learned a lot of specialty dishes from the Yun family cook, and fried and fried them together.
The owners of the turtle village were all stupid, and they looked at the golden bamboo with drooling one by one. They don't know what to do with such a beautiful dish.
Jin Zhu didn't know, he had seen chopsticks when he was still bamboo. But he had never used them, and he didn't know how the two little sticks worked. I was able to pick things up and looked at the chopsticks. Looking at the beardless chamberlain again, Jin Zhu angrily threw away his chopsticks.
"Damn, make so many twists and turns. It's so troublesome to eat, come and eat for everyone. After saying that, Jin Zhu grabbed a piece of sweet and sour carp and put it in his mouth to eat it until it was juicy.
The owners of the village naturally followed suit, and one by one their big paws grabbed the delicious food on the plate. While eating, he praised the cooking skills of this Dongou chef for his good skills, and he will be in the future until Yelangyun. The atmosphere of the dinner was warm, especially after the addition of those Dongou dancing girls.
Jin Zhu took the lead in joining the ranks of the carnival, and the men of Yelang Kingdom jumped and jumped in the palace shouting trumpets. The soldiers of Yelang also lit bonfires in the city to celebrate the great victory over the Han army.
They sang and danced, and their cheerful singing was heard far away in the night. They let go of the joy in their hearts, victory is the sweetest fruit in the world, and they are savoring it at this moment.
As victors, they have a reason to revel. Jin Zhu grabbed a large piece of soft fried tenderloin and stuffed it into his mouth, and shouted vaguely that everyone said that this dish was delicious.
"Eat, the Han people's things are so delicious. Your Majesty, let's directly occupy the Han Dynasty this time, and take down the stockade called Chang'an for you to live in. ”
"Yes! The king. Tomorrow, we will attack Dongou City, and after taking Dongou City, we will go to Chang'an. You can rest assured that in three or four days you will be able to drink wine and eat meat in the palace of the Han people. ”
"I heard that the woman of the Han emperor is very beautiful, let's get two to play with too."
"The bamboo building where the Han emperor slept must be very large, and I heard that the bottom is full of healthy cows. Their yard is full of fat pigs, and chickens and ducks are all over the yard. Everyone got there and ate as much as they wanted. ”
The atmosphere of the banquet was very warm, and the owners of the village grasped things one by one, and their hands and mouths were greasy. From time to time, Maihime's chest is scratched, and I don't know if it's rubbing oil or oil.
Until...... The waiter brought up the boiling hot pot......
An altar of wine was carried out of the cellar and distributed to the soldiers of the Yoro Kingdom.
Also in this dark night, a group of guys in black helmets and black armor are on their way. The creaking ox cart pulled the heavy three-bow bed crossbow, and the sound of neat steps was particularly loud in the silence of the night. Finally they heard the singing, a song they didn't understand.
The people in the city were reveling, and the soldiers outside the city were nervously arranged. They are setting up a killing formation, as long as the formation is successful. The people of the city are like birds in a cage, and even if they have wings, they can't take flight.
The goshawk's eyes shone brightly in the night, and the Yelang people were too careless. Victory carried away their heads. These guys dare to celebrate inside, and they don't even close the fucking gates. Fortunately, Hou Ye's general order this time was to besiege Shangsha City, otherwise he would have to rush in with the Yun family's guards at this moment.
Some Yun family guards who were not wearing armor sneaked up on the city gate, each of them carrying a huge leather bag.
With the sound of metal crashing, one by one thistles were sprinkled at the city gate. This is Yun Xiao's special order, and the Yelang people like to go barefoot. Then they will be naked, and their shoes will be pierced by thistles. Barefoot...... Hey!
In order to ensure that these guys were extremely cool after being pierced, Yun Xiao also thoughtfully soaked these thistles in the dung pit for two days. Now this thing is definitely a bloody thing. Yun Xiao firmly believes that Yelang's medical level will never cure the two stubborn diseases of tetanus and bacterial infection. (To be continued......)
