Chapter 522: Defending the City
The battle situation in Binh Duong City was very bad, and it only lasted for a morning before suffering heavy losses.
The county lieutenant was scarred, but he never went down to the city tower, in his words, if Pingyang was lost, what face did he still have and steal his life, rather than that, it was better to let me die in Pingyang City, this incident alarmed the county commander, personally went out, climbed the city tower, and forced the county lieutenant to go down to heal, so that he could live and recuperate, he would never let the white wave thieves enter Pingyang to harm the people, at first the county lieutenant still insisted, but the county commander kept saying this, so that he finally compromised, with tears in his eyes, clutched the long sword, and looked at the firm eyes of the county commander:" I'll leave it all to you here. ”
"Well, Pingyang, which is not lost in your hands, will not be lost from me."
The county lieutenant was carried on a stretcher to heal his wounds, and the county commander who was guarding the city tower did not drag his exhausted body to visit him until sunset when he repelled the white wave thief: "We have defended Pingyang, you can recuperate with peace of mind, during your recuperation, Pingyang will never lose, unless I die......"
The county lieutenant was silent, of course he knew the current situation, that is to say, the county magistrate was ready to kill himself, and the excited county lieutenant struggled to sit up for a moment, his eyes were cracking, could it be that Pingyang really couldn't keep it.
The county order is silent, and the military county lieutenant knows better than him, if the purpose of the white wave thieves is really to go to the state, then the originally inconsequential Pingyang is very important, but the same holding Pingyang is not the same as solving the problem of the white wave thieves, only the real elimination of the white wave thieves is the most critical point, and this depends on the cavalry under Liu Lan's jurisdiction and the reinforcements sent by Luoyang, so as long as the white wave thieves can be eliminated, I will not hesitate to pay a price. Even if it costs the whole of Binh Duong.
The silence of the prefectural order has too many meanings. But the look of madness on his face immediately made the county lieutenant guess what he was going to do, and exclaimed. said: "County Jun, do you really plan to break the jade tiles?" In this way, even if the White Wave Thieves are finally eliminated, but Pingyang City will be doomed, you have been ruling here for three years, and the people here regard you as your father, do you really want to see them die tragically under the butcher's knife and fall in a pool of blood, no, you can't do this anyway. ”
"I don't want to do that. But I really had to do this when I was desperate, and now I can only hope that Liu Lan can bring the good news of defeating the White Wave Thief. The county magistrate sighed, and said hello, and then withdrew from the house, and returned to the county office, but he couldn't sleep anyway, got up, and climbed up to the city tower under the escort of the guards. Now the people are cleaning up, setting the unclaimed bodies on fire and burning them as bright as day.
Look at the billowing smoke, the raging fire. For the first time, the county order that felt the cruelty of the war swept the eyes of the city, and the stars were dotted, although the sky was dark. But at dawn, the white wave thieves' formation had already been clearly memorized, but the county order could explain that their arrangement was not bad at all. Between the plains, the most densely lit place is where the White Wave Thieves camp. Close to the water source, the defense does not leak. It is conceivable that the leader of the white wave thieves must be well versed in the art of war and familiar with the way of arranging the formation, but the most amazing thing is that his camp is a large camp and a small camp, a large camp with three small camps, the three camps are tightly arranged, the antlers and horses are everything, and a high platform is erected in the Chinese army, although the distance is far away and can not be seen clearly, but the towering Daxu, as well as the black shadow of the wartime swinging order flag and the heralds who shuttle through the battlefield holding the order flag, still make him frightened This is a rebel army with no military quality, or a well-trained officer army?
He still remembers replacing the county lieutenant to climb the city tower and suddenly heard the sound of the war drums of the attack, he almost scolded the enemy soldiers Shang Yuan, what drum to beat at this time, what to attack, but then he knew that he was wrong, although the drum was clear, but it came from a distance, to be precise, it came from the high platform in the camp of the white wave thieves, and when attacking, the golden drum was the trumpet, and the formation was in the company when marching, which was the key to really making the county order make up his mind, the white wave thieves were too strong, so strong that it was not the same thing as the so-called Yellow Turban Army, even if such a rebel army did not flow into the state, But no matter where they go, they are a great disaster, so they must be destroyed, even if it costs them dearly.
The county commander stood on the top of the city tower and looked at the camp of the white wave thieves opposite, with a lot of thoughts, and then he ordered to send someone out of the city to find Liu Lan and report this situation to him, the opposite is not a traitor of the Yellow Turban Army, three thousand can win thirty thousand, but a well-trained white wave thief, must not be taken lightly, although the county order does not want to admit it, but has to admit that the white wave thief in front of him is much stronger than the national soldiers of the county guarding the city.
I don't know what it's like in my heart, not the strong fear of the enemy, but the worry about Liu Lan's troops, can they win, or will they inevitably end up with a big defeat?
However, he has still heard of the name of this Liu Lan, with a brilliant record, a thousand sudden horses into the grassland, beheaded the Xianbei Lord and Lian, three thousand sudden horses into Liucheng, killing Karasuma chickens and flying dogs, not including the efforts to turn the tide, making Jixian County one of the few counties in Youzhou that has not been ravaged by the Yellow Turban Army, and the household registration has finally become the largest county in Youzhou, surpassing Yuyang in one fell swoop, this qiē is this Liu Lan, in the information he knows, this Liu Lan is like a god of war, he has never been defeated, he should trust it with such a record, full of trust, but for some reason he is worried, worried that the myth of his undefeated will be shattered, and that his undefeated golden body will be broken here.
Painful and tormented, for a long time in the future, before the victory or defeat of this war, the county commander may not be able to have a good mood and must spend it in worry, but there is no spare time for him, he still has a lot of things to deal with, and the most important thing at present is undoubtedly to encourage the soldiers and appease the people.
Let the officers and soldiers defending the city not tremble, tell them that the white wave thieves are also human beings and not gods and ghosts, and tell the people of Pingyang not to be sad, the painful days will soon pass, we must have confidence in the county guard and the Son of Heaven, and they will soon send troops to rescue us.
Just living in the clouds of war, the people and soldiers, whether they are civilians or real soldiers at all, can't relieve their nervousness because of the words of the county guard, but the words of the county guard can undoubtedly make them self-hypnotize and even self-comfort, and finally overcome the fear in their hearts, yes, the Son of Heaven will definitely send troops to save us.
Our Northern Army, our Southern Army, and the Yulin Army of the Son of Heaven's Guard, this is the pride of the people of the Han Dynasty, this is the guarantee that the people of the Han Dynasty can stand up with pride, they are an undefeated army, they opened up territory and expanded territory for the Han Dynasty, just five years ago, they swept away the Yellow Turbans of several states with the power of thunder, and today, they will descend from the sky like a divine soldier to kill the white wave thieves in front of them.
At this moment, the people of Binh Duong became fearless, and at this moment, the defenders of Binh Duong became brave and fearless.
Just because they believe in their Han army! (To be continued......)
