Chapter 115 Fierce Battle (1)
Chapter 115 Fighting (1)
The Beiyao army began to attack the city in the early morning and did not stop until dark. The Beiyao people left thousands of corpses and retreated. Zijin, on the other hand, had been fighting from early morning to dark, without even having time to eat, and seeing the retreat of the Northern captive army, her whole body was indescribably exhausted.
The northern captives retreated, but the people on the platform did not cheer for joy, because this only showed that they had won another night of tranquility. Tomorrow, a new round of bloody battle will be staged again.
The man surnamed Huang with the nickname Datou who came to strike up a conversation in the early morning came over and said to Zijin and Yu Zhi, "You are very brave." As the old soldier said just now, these two people's martial arts are indeed very good.
Zijin said to Huang Datou: "You are also very brave." Although these soldiers are not as good at martial arts as he and Yu Zhi, they have no hind legs when fighting, and they are willing to fight. It is also by relying on them that the people in Yucheng can be safe until now.
Huang Datou was stunned when he heard Zijin's voice: "You, you..." This is obviously a woman's voice!
Zijin let down her hair, and said to Huang Datou, "You are right, I am a woman." Madam told her before, as long as she kills the enemy bravely, it doesn't matter if people know that she is a woman.
Seeing this, Huang Datou smiled instead: "It's really hard to let a man down." For these soldiers, it's good to be able to kill the enemy, regardless of whether she is a man or a woman. Moreover, with Zijin's martial arts, she was no match for a dozen or so men.
Huang Datou was old and well-informed, so although he was surprised, he was not shocked. The other soldiers didn't think so, looking at Zijin was like looking at an alien. Is this still a woman? This **** is abnormal, right? Of course, the more perversions like this, the better.
The matter soon reached the ears of Qin Zhao and General Zhao. Qin Zhao was annoyed, and said, "What is the identity of this woman? Why did you let her get on the city platform?"
Yang Qianhu said: "General, although she is a woman, she is very brave in killing the enemy. Today, this woman killed more than sixty barbarians."
General Zhao said beside him: "Bring this woman up." He was a little curious, what kind of woman could kill more than sixty barbarians in one day.
Seeing Zijin, General Zhao didn't recognize her at once.
Qin Zhao looked at Zijin, looked at Yang Qianhu suspiciously, and asked, "Did you make a mistake? Could she kill more than sixty barbarians from the North?"
Zijin didn't make it difficult for Yang Qianhu, and said: "General Qin, if you doubt, you can take a look at my saber." Zijin's saber is made of fine iron. Bulky, on the contrary, this broadsword is crafted by skillful craftsmen and has a beautiful shape.
Qin Zhao prided himself on his identity, so naturally he couldn't really pick up the knife, and glanced at the guard beside him. The guard walked over and received Zijin's big knife with both hands, which was regarded as respect for Zijin.
Zi Jin said: "My hand weighs nearly one hundred and eighty catties, you have to be careful."
The guard didn't suspect that Zijin was lying, and there was no need for so many people present: "Miss, can you put the knife on the ground?" The knife was still covered with blood, but Zijin was not injured. It's all barbarian blood.
General Zhao heard Zijin's words and asked, "Are you the maidservant next to Mrs. Yun?" He had only seen Zijin yesterday, and he would never forget this voice. The main reason is that Zijin made such a deep impression on him that he couldn't forget it even if he wanted to.
Zijin shook her head and said, "My wife has already let go of my body deed." This means that she is not a servant girl of Yunfu.
Qin Zhao said with an unkind expression, "Who made you go to the tower?"
Zijin is very courageous, Yunqing doesn't sell her battles, let alone Qin Zhao, who she despises: "Why can't I go to the city platform? Just because I am a woman? But the barbarians I kill are no worse than How many other soldiers are there?” To be exact,
Much more than others.
General Zhao glanced at Qin Zhao and said, "General Qin, our most important thing now is to defend Yucheng, and the rest will be discussed after the war." It is because she is good at martial arts and can kill the enemy.
After hearing this, Zijin's eyes sparkled, and she said: "Then can I continue to go to the tower to kill the enemy tomorrow?" Although it was thrilling, but when killing the enemy, Zijin felt an indescribable joy in her heart .
General Zhao nodded and said, "Yes."
Qin Zhao disapproved, but although he was the defender of Yucheng, General Zhao was his elder, and he had a lot of prestige in the army, so it was difficult for him to refute General Zhao's words in front of so many people.
Zijin had achieved her goal, and she was unwilling to stay longer, so she immediately said, "I have to go back, or my wife should be in a hurry."
After Zijin left. Qin Zhao said with disapproval on his face: "General Zhao, how can you promise to let her go to the tower tomorrow?"
General Zhao said with an uneasy expression: "This girl is so skilled, why don't you let her go to the tower?" .
Qin Zhao said: "But since ancient times, there has never been a precedent for women to go to the battlefield."
General Zhao's face was completely dark now, and he said: "You mean, you would rather let the barbarians from the north break through the city than let the women go to the battlefield?" Zijin came from Yunfu, so she felt uncomfortable. But at this juncture, he actually disregarded the overall situation and cared about these personal enmities, which really made him feel uncomfortable.
Qin Zhao's face changed slightly, but he couldn't turn against General Zhao, especially at this time, and he couldn't disagree with the general.
Zijin returned to Yunfu, washed up, changed her clothes before entering the backyard. Seeing Yu Xi, she hadn't seen her for a day, but Zi Jin felt as if it had been a lifetime: "Madam..." After that, Zi Jin didn't know what to say.
Yuxi nodded and said, "It's good to be back, haven't you had dinner yet? I asked Mama Bai to leave food for you!" After finishing speaking, she called Mama Bai to bring the food.
Mama Bai has also been very tired these two days. She has to prepare food for more than 20 people by herself, and there is also a pregnant woman and a seriously ill patient who need extra care. Fortunately, there are two little maids to help, otherwise she must be exhausted by herself.
Zi Jin called again in a low voice: "Madam..." Thinking of the non-stop fights on the city platform, now occupying Yunfu, seeing the smile on Madam's face, it really feels like a lifetime away.
Yuxi approached Zijin, patted her lightly, and said, "Don't worry, talk slowly when you're full." She knew that Zijin must have something to say to her.
When the food was served, Zijin realized that she was very hungry. Yeah, I haven't eaten anything since morning. However, he was too concentrated during the battle, and when he got off the tower, he wanted to come back quickly, so he didn't even remember that he hadn't eaten for most of the day.
Yuxi was very caring, and the dinner she prepared for Zijin and Yu Zhi was very light, white rice plus four vegetables and one soup. There is no meat on the table, all vegetarian dishes.
Zijin saw that the four dishes and one soup were all vegetarian, and asked, "Madam, why is there no meat?" Now she really wanted to eat meat, not vegetables and tofu.
Yu Zhi said: "These dishes are pretty good." He has killed people for a day, and now he doesn't want to eat meat at all. He was even worried that he would not be able to eat the meat when he saw it.
Seeing this, Yuxi said, "Zijin, then go to the kitchen to eat! There are some meat dishes left in the kitchen." She was also worried that the two of them would kill too many people, so they didn't dare to eat meat. Unexpectedly, Zijin had nothing to do with it, but Yu Zhi had a shadow.
Zijin took the bowl to the kitchen, where there was bacon and chicken soup with red dates. This chicken soup with red dates is not only eaten by Yuxi, but also by Huo Changqing. However, the two of them didn't have much appetite, so they left a small half. Purple Cordyce served a bowl of chicken soup, which was delicious. It can be seen from this that although so many people were killed and so much blood was seen, Zijin was not affected at all.
After eating and drinking enough, Zijin told Yuxi what happened today: "Madam, I killed a total of sixty-eight barbarians today, and I will kill more barbarians tomorrow."
After hearing this, Yu Xi said: "Zi Jin, you are a daughter, no matter how many enemies you kill, no matter how many military exploits you make, you will not be given an official position."
Zijin didn't care at all, and said, "I didn't kill the barbarians in the north to become an official." She did it to protect the safety of her master.
Yuxi nodded slightly: "I'm just reminding you." Now is a special moment, so Zijin is allowed to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, but when Qin Zhao, General Zhao and others report their military exploits in the future, that is Absolutely no Violet name. Otherwise, the general in Yucheng would definitely be sprayed bloody by the ministers of the court.
Yuxi talked to Zijin for a while, and then let Zijin go to rest: "You have to go to the tower to kill the enemy tomorrow, so go to rest early today!"
Zijin was indeed tired and sleepy, so she didn't refuse and went to rest soon. Yu Zhi also went to rest, because everyone moved to the inner courtyard, Yu Zhi also rested in the wing room of the inner courtyard.
Xu Wu came in and said to Yuxi: "Madam, more than 4,000 people were killed or injured today." Including the 10,000 people brought back by Xia Hong and Kang Donglin, there are only 50,000 people in Yucheng. But from the beginning of the war to the present, more than 10,000 people were lost in just four days, and the number of casualties is rising every day.
After hearing this, Yu Xi said: "There are still more than 40,000 people, enough to wait for the reinforcements to arrive. Therefore, there is no need to say any more." Yu Xi knew that Xu Wu wanted to move herself to a safe place. It's just that once the city is broken, nowhere is safe.
Seeing this, Xu Wu said, "Ma'am, I naturally hope that Yucheng can be defended. But no matter when, we must prepare for the worst. Ma'am, I just hope that we can prepare early. Otherwise, when the time comes, we will not be able to fight again." It’s too late to prepare.”
Yuxi asked: "How to prepare?"
Xu Wu said: "Madam, a secret passage has been dug in the winery. I have already had people put enough food in it for a month. When the time comes, I hope Madam can take refuge there." He was afraid of Yu Xi It will be troublesome if you insist on not leaving at that time, so I want to make it clear in advance.
Yuxi nodded and said: "When that day really comes, I will take refuge in the secret road." After finishing speaking, Yuxi touched her stomach, she hoped not to wait until that day.
Just in the middle of the night, Yun Qing led Yu Cong and Yuan Ying and more than a dozen people sneaked into the Beicap army at night. Yunqing has been scouting nearby for several days. Their goal is not to assassinate Agu, but to burn the food and grass of the Beicap people.
For an army of more than 100,000, the amount of rations for only one day is huge, let alone nearly half a month's rations. Therefore, it is not difficult to find the place where the grain and grass are.
Since Yu Cong and Yuan Ying could speak Beiyao dialect, they managed to avoid several interrogations without any danger, and successfully approached the place where the grain and grass were stored. (to be continued)
