Chapter 40: The Commander-in-Chief Giant Deer
Guo Dian lost completely, nearly 200 of the 600 dead fell into the pit, half of them were killed by crossbows, and only more than 100 people finally surrendered. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
And Guo Dian himself killed himself next to the pit when the victory and defeat were divided, and the corpse fell, and Yanbei's subordinates took a lot of effort to hang it up.
Pingxiang City, which had only 900 defenders, was breached by the attack launched by Wang Yi and Jiang Jin, and the sober defenders on each city head were less than 100 people, and the two walls flooded with 700 people in a short time, and the defenders were submerged in the blink of an eye.
That night, more than 3,000 people from northern Yan advanced into Pingxiang City, indicating that the strongest city in the entire Julu County had been breached, and Guo Dian's death also meant that the highest military and political governor of the entire Julu County had become the captain of Yanbei under the influence of Zhang Ju's rebels.
After experiencing a pursuit battle in the north of the city, hundreds of night riders rushed to Dai Yue with the news of Yanbei to all counties and townships...... Zhang Bang announced to all places, and Captain Yanbei led the entire territory of Julu County, Jizhou, to inform the people not to be surprised, and the Zhongshan Army would not commit any offense against the people.
In addition, these cavalry also had a very important mission, which was to bring back the best medical craftsmen from every place in the entire Julu County, and by the way, take the opportunity to investigate the siege of each city.
After all, not every place must be able to take the city on the first day of the army coming to the city like Yanbei.
He was able to win, not because Guo Dian was weak, but because Guo Dian was contemptuous...... If Guo Dian didn't come out of the city, and didn't have such a strong desire to win, regardless of the counties, Yanbei would not have been able to take the city so easily.
Throughout the night, Yanbei never rested.
From the preparation for the defensive night attack in the first half of the night, to the defensive battle in the second half of the night, to the night after entering the city, inviting the powerful squires in the city to talk at night, until the sentinels who ran around the country in the early morning returned to Pingxiang with doctors and news...... He didn't even have a chance to close his eyes.
In addition to the soldiers who fled in the entire Pingxiang camp, there were 600 prisoners, and Yanbei broke them up overnight and reorganized them into the command of the generals, on the one hand, they supervised each other and re-run-in.
It's dawn.
The whole Pingxiang city woke up with the fog in the early morning, but the people did not dare to go out, and the sound of shouting and killing at night disturbed the people and did not dare to sleep all night, everyone knew that the rebels broke through Guo Fujun's soldiers and horses in the city at night, and the entire Julu County changed the sky.
Yanbei didn't have the strength to care if they went to the streets, so he first ordered people to take out the grain and grass in the warehouses in the city, and ordered all troops and horses to escort the troops besieging the cities to the counties in case of emergency.
Although the capture of Pingxiang will cause a part of the morale blow to the rest of the county, the other cities do not have too many worries, and there will definitely be people who defend it...... The ensuing siege will be a long tug-of-war.
The pressure on his shoulders is even greater, Pingxiang is the southernmost city in Julu County, and it is close to Guangping County, and it is also very close to Yecheng, where tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are entrenched by Wang Fen...... Once the ambition who wanted to depose the emperor changed his mind and led his army north, this will bear the brunt.
The doctors and craftsmen who came from all over the country overnight crowded in the county government office to treat Zhang Leigong's injuries, which made Yanbei look at these doctors and craftsmen very unpleasantly.
There is a fire in his heart, and Lei Gong will not extinguish it if he does not wake up.
The medical skills of this era, like cast iron, are unique techniques, and everyone learns different things because of different teachers. Even if it is the same arrow wound, some people say that they should take wormwood leaves internally to heal the wound, and some people want to mash the concave amaranth to cover the affected area, and there are many miscellaneous things...... Yanbei had the heart to give Lei Gong to use, but was told that the drugs could not be mixed, and mixing would be poisonous.
But he didn't know what was right, and it made his chest even worse!
Why didn't anyone think of making a medical craftsman like the art of war, like a good chapter on governance, to write a book that is recognized by everyone, and to pass on such a culture, and in the end every healer learns the same thing, no disputes, never delay time, and directly cure the disease!
Is it true that the medical skills that save people are not as useful as the scriptures for governing the country? Isn't there a murderous war book useful?
Yan Bei shook his head, he wanted to remember this...... If in the future he could reach a higher position, if he could follow more prestigious people, and he would have to write a book for the doctor, the blacksmith, and even the farmer who planted the plant, how much would he alleviate the suffering of the people?
But now there is no way, in the end he had to choose the most respected old doctor to treat Lei Gong first, Yan Bei pushed away the hot house and walked to the courtyard of the official office, washed his face with well water, and breathed fresh and cold air.
Although he didn't sleep day and night, Zhang Leigong's injuries were like a boulder pressing on his heart, making him sleepy.
He kept repeating to himself in his heart, Zhang Lei Gong was sent by him to shout, although it was his carelessness that Lei Gong rashly picked up an arrow and was shot by a random arrow, but for Yan Bei, there was also his unshirkable responsibility.
If Zhang Leigong dies at this time, I am afraid that he will never be able to forgive himself.
Even if he had an argument with Lei Gong, he even beat Lei Gong hard...... But in all fairness, he doesn't hate Lei Gong at all, and he doesn't hate Lei Gong either, even if he does something wrong. It is undeniable that Lei Gong once worked hard for him and also shed blood for him!
He couldn't watch Lei Gong die in front of his eyes.
Yan Bei wandered around in the courtyard of the government office boredly, watching the smoke rising from the clay pots where the riders were carrying herbs and the medicine boiled by the healer.
At this moment, Jiang Jin walked into the official office covered in blood, saw Yanbei going around in circles, and asked, "How is it, is Lei Gong saved?" ā
"Yes...... It seems that there is. Seeing Jiang Jin coming, Yan Bei nodded and replied, although he didn't dare to guarantee it. Then he rubbed his forehead and asked, "What's the matter, you came here, what's the matter?" ā
Jiang Jin's face was punched in the scuffle, and the corners of his eyebrows were still scarred and said to Yan Bei: "I captured a prisoner in the siege at night, you should see it, it's outside." ā
"Captive? Didn't you say that you just look at the processing and make it into the subordinates of each song? Yan Bei's heart was very chaotic at this time, and he had no time to care about anything else, and then asked, "What's so special about him that I have to see?" ā
Jiang Jin pointed to the wound at the corner of his eyebrows and said: "You see, it was beaten by that rabbit cub, named Gao Ran is a military horse, last night one person killed eight of our brothers, and then the knife was broken, and three were injured with his bare hands, and he was captured by a certain belt of brothers." ā
"How many more people do you want to capture empty-handed?" Yan Bei squinted his eyes and pondered the authenticity of what Jiang Jin said, and still asked with some skepticism: "Can you fight like this?" ā
Jiang Jin looked at Yanbei and nodded and said, "With an inch of soldiers in hand, it is difficult to stop!" ā
"Bring him in and let me see him."
"No!"
Jiang Jin nodded and went out, but in a moment, he brought in a young man who was tied up by five flowers with eight or nine men, Yan Bei just glanced at it cursoly, and the biggest impression was that the rope was really strong, and the rope with the thickness of his thumb was tied tightly on his body.
The young man in front of him was very strong and tall. Yan Bei's height of nearly eight feet was already a figure that could be seen at a glance in the crowd, but the prisoner in front of him looked a little taller than Yan Bei. The body is very strong, and the bronze skin on the ape's arms and abdomen sets off an angular face, although the hair is exuded at this time, it is still not less heroic, but the horizontal eyebrows look at Yan Bei coldly, and a pair of eyes seem to be able to breathe fire.
Yan Bei took a closer look, and couldn't help but secretly praise, what a strong man.
In my heart, I couldn't help but score seven points on Jiang Jin's rhetoric, and only such a warrior could be worthy of what Jiang Jin said, with an inch of soldiers in hand, and an unstoppable appearance!
"You killed Guo Fujun, why don't you kill me too! If you want to kill, you have to listen to the respect, and there is no need to talk nonsense! ā
Seeing that Yan Bei pondered for a moment, Gao Ran had already opened his mouth and roared, and his eyes were full of anger.
Yan Bei ignored Gao Ran's anger, tilted his head and looked at Gao Ran and frowned, and said, "When Guo Dian shot my brother with random arrows, you were also on the city gate, right, I saw you." ā
Gao Ran was stunned for a moment, at that time, the arrows were fired, he only saw two people, one was the messenger who was shot, and the other was a slender man who jumped off the horse to rescue the messenger, at that time he was only a personal soldier, but he didn't want to be the leader who braved the rain of arrows to rescue his subordinates.
Surprised for a moment, Gao Ran returned to his eyebrows and asked coldly, "What's going on?" ā
"First of all, Guo Dian was not killed by me, although I really wanted to kill him, but he was besieged by my subordinates instead of stealing the camp, and he was defeated and killed himself." Yan Bei said to Gao Ran expressionlessly: "Secondly, I persuaded him with good words but shot my subordinates with random arrows, I didn't move the troops but he attacked my camp first, so it is reasonable for me to seize his city, besides, I have not committed any crime against the people after entering the city, Yan is not a big traitor, Guo Dian is not a loyal person, victory or defeat is just a matter of victory or defeat, you don't have to say so righteous and awe-inspiring." ā
"I won't kill you either, but now that all the doctors and craftsmen in Julu County are in this room to save my brother who was wounded, I don't have time to pay attention to you." Yan Bei waved his hand at Jiang Jin, "Take it away." ā
Those men took Gao Ran away again, and Jiang Jin asked, "That's it?" You don't exhort him anymore? ā
"Let's talk about it later, don't kill him, I can use his bravery, not to mention that killing him will also chill the surrendered soldiers."
Yan Bei turned around and pushed the door in, looking at Zhang Leigong on the sickbed without saying a word, Jiang Jin looked at his back and shrugged helplessly, turned to leave.
For a whole afternoon, Yanbei didn't do anything, he was very sleepy but couldn't sleep, kneeling beside the couch and watching the doctors go in and out without saying a word, until the night, Zhang Leigong woke up leisurely.
"This ...... Where is this? ā
Li Damu walked to the sickbed first and said, "This is the Pingxiang Bureau, let's win!" ā
Turning his head, Zhang Lei Gong saw Yan Bei who was kneeling on the side, and just wanted to say something, but Yan Bei smiled with relief, and said to him: "Take care of your injuries, big eyes, take a good look at Lei Gong, I'll go to sleep." ā
As soon as he saw Lei Gong wake up, the boulder in Yanbei's heart fell suddenly, and for a while, he felt sleepiness surging like a tide.
"This ......" Lei Gong was a little puzzled, turned his head to look at Li Damu, Li Damu smiled at him, and said: "In order to treat your injuries, the captain has summoned all the doctors and craftsmen in the entire Julu County, more than a hundred of them...... He hasn't closed his eyes from yesterday day to tonight, this is because he is worried about your injury, afraid that your big voice will die! ā
Lei Gong looked at Li Damu and nodded slowly, and then looked at the door, and could no longer see Yanbei's back.
It's just that he clenched his weak teeth, and the bridge of his nose felt a little sore.
The heart, too, was lightly stabbed like a barb by a cluster of arrows.
