Chapter 341 Bloody Battle (1)
The sky is just a little bit dim, there are still a few stars scattered in the deep white sky, and the earth is still dark.
Yuxi heard a messy sound, and immediately called Licorice who served her: "Go to the front yard to see what's going on? Why is it so noisy?"
After Yuxi got dressed, Licorice also came back. Licorice turned pale and said, "Ma'am, the Beiyao people have begun to attack the city."
Yuxi put on a stone blue fox fur cloak with emerald emerald patterns, looked for Mammy Quan, and said, "Mammy, the northern captive army is attacking the city now, I'll go over and have a look."
Sister Quan didn't quite agree with Yu Xi's behavior, and said: "There is a war outside, what's the use of you going? It's better to wait at home with peace of mind!" The woman can't go to the battlefield anymore, so she can't help if she goes.
Yuxi shook her head and said, "I can't sit still at home, so I'd better go out and have a look. Don't worry, Mammy, I'm protected by someone."
Knowing Yu Xi's stubborn temperament, Quan Momo stopped blocking her and said, "Don't worry, I will take care of Zao Zao and Liu Er. It's so dangerous outside, you have to take care of yourself too. Zao Zao You and Liu'er are still so young, you still have to take care of them!"
Yuxi said with a smile: "Don't worry, mother, I won't let anything happen to me."
Xu Wu was shocked when he saw Yu Xi dressed neatly, and said, "Madam, where are you going?" Knowing that Yu Xi was going under the city wall, Xu Wu firmly disagreed: "Madam, where are you going?" Bian is very dangerous now, madam can't go there."
A Guan said: "Guard Xu, Madam is going, let her go!" Let Madam see what the battlefield is like.
Yuxi said: "I'm going there because of the danger. If you are worried, let Daniel follow me! You protect Zaozao and Liu'er in the mansion." As long as those secret workers are not allowed to get close, Yuxi will also Not afraid of anyone hurting her.
Xu Wu gave A Wan a hard look, and said, "Since Madam has decided, I will accompany Madam for a walk!"
Yuxi shook her head and said: "There are many things in the mansion that you have to deal with, and you can't leave. Don't worry! With Master Yang, Awan, and more than ten guards, nothing will happen."
Xu Wu couldn't stop him, and said worthily: "Madam, after you go there to have a look, then come back, you can't stay there for too long, it's too dangerous."
Yuxi was a little speechless, she didn't go sightseeing, she would come back after going: "Master Yang and Awan are protecting, and there are many soldiers over there, I will be fine."
Before reaching the city wall, there were bursts of screams and the sound of weapons. After getting off the carriage, what Yuxi saw was the wounded soldiers carried down from the city wall. There was a wounded soldier screaming loudly on the stretcher in pain, and if it wasn't for someone holding him down, he would definitely fall off.
The scream made Yu Xi's face turn pale instantly, and sweat broke out on her forehead. A Guan said in a low voice: "Madam, if you can't stand it, go back!"
Yu Xi glanced at A Wan, her eyes seemed to be able to see through A Wan, the carriage stopped here, it can't be such a coincidence, it must be A Wan's intention.
The expression on Awan's face was still numb, as if Yuxi was not looking at her.
Yuxi said: "Go to the wounded barracks."
When I arrived at the wounded barracks, I saw hundreds of wounded soldiers, and these wounded soldiers were very seriously injured, and the wounded soldiers were sent in a steady stream.
Yu Xi frowned tightly, fighting and calculating, and in less than an hour, there were so many wounded soldiers in such a short period of time, which showed how tragic the battle on the city wall was.
Xu Daniu went to inquire about the news and came back soon, and said anxiously: "Madam, let's go back quickly!" He had to send his wife out of Yucheng as soon as possible.
Yu Xi asked: "What's going on?"
Xu Daniu said: "The Beiyao people's offensive was extremely fierce, and we lost more than a thousand people in less than an hour." This means that they knew that the general was not in Yucheng, and wanted to attack Yucheng before the general returned.
"Ah..." There was a scream, pulling back Yuxi's broken thoughts.
The woman who was about to apply medicine to the wounded soldier was also frightened by the screams of the wounded soldier, and her hands trembled, and the gauze on her hand fell to the ground.
Yuxi took off the cloak on her body and handed it to Awan,
He said to Xu Daniu: "I won't go back, I can still be used here."
Xu Daniu shouted: "Madam..."
After saying this, Yu Xi walked over and took off the gauze on the ground, and said to the woman who was frightened just now: "Go find the quick cloth and give him a bite." It would be bad if the pain was so unbearable that he bit his tongue.
The woman hurriedly took out her handkerchief and stuffed it into the wounded soldier's mouth.
Yu Xi ignored the sluggish look of the wounded soldier, dipped a white cloth in spirits, and wiped the dirty blood beside the wound. The injury was originally made to scream by the hemostatic medicine. Now that the strong alcohol touched the wound, the pain made him want to scream again, but his mouth would be blocked and he couldn't scream.
While dressing the wounded soldier with gauze, Yuxi said to the woman: "I know you are afraid, but no matter how scared you are, you must treat the wound quickly. You know, if you delay for a while, they will hurt more a while."
The woman wiped her tears, nodded and said: "Madam, don't worry, I won't do it again next time."
A deep light flashed across Awan's eyes.
Xu Daniu felt that it was inappropriate for Yuxi to stay here, and said: "Madam, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's go back home!"
Yu Xi didn't promise Daniel's words, seeing more than 20 wounded soldiers sent over, Yu Xi frowned. These sheds are not enough for so many wounded soldiers, and if it rains, these sheds will not keep warm.
Thinking of this, Yuxi called Xu Daniu and said, "You immediately send someone to clean up the Marshal's Mansion. After half an hour, place those seriously injured soldiers in the Marshal's Mansion." The main reason for placing them in the Marshal's Mansion is that it is big enough to be placed. Thousands of wounded soldiers are nothing to worry about.
Under Yu Xi's cold eyes, Xu Daniu finally gave in, and said, "I'll let someone arrange it now." Madam's aura is really scary.
Yuxi didn't stay in the wounded soldier camp anymore, and in the wounded soldier camp, she could only apply medicine to the wounded soldiers to bandage their wounds. She had other more important things to do.
After a while, Xu Daniu came over and said, "Madam, I have ordered everything you arranged. Madam, let's go back quickly! That lunatic Battelle not only ordered people to hit the city wall with a ramming car, but also used a wooden The donkeys transported the earth bags to build the weir beam road.” Xu Daniu felt very bad when the offensive was so fierce on the first day.
Yuliang Road is a passage to the city built with burlap earth and stones. Although the city wall of Yucheng is very high, if Battelle clears away the surrounding obstacles first, slowly paves a passage above the ground, and then hundreds of wooden donkey carts rush up together and throw burlap bags of earth and stones, it will be enough to build a weir bridge. To the city head of Yucheng.
Yu Xi's face was also a little dignified: "The cavalry hasn't come back yet, who are you sending out now?" In this situation, the cavalry must be sent out, otherwise the Yuliang Road will be built by the Beiyao people, and Yucheng will not be able to keep.
Xu Daniu said solemnly: "The army has confiscated all the horses in Yucheng in the past two days, and there are more than 2,000 horses. Now General Zhao is picking people, and once he picks people, he will let them rush out."
Yuxi narrowed her eyes, no matter who she picked, she would never return: "I want to go to the tower, you can ask General Zhao to see if it will work?"
Xu Daniu shook his head and said: "Madam, if you go to the city wall, you will only cause a burden to the soldiers." Otherwise, Madam will definitely not retreat.
A Wan said: "Ma'am, it's the same if you let people take care of these wounded soldiers in the rear." A Wan thought that Yuxi would be scared when she saw such a bloody side, but she couldn't help being afraid, and even participated in it.
Yu Xi quickly calmed down, and said to Xu Daniu: "Don't be frightened by their fierce offensive now, their current fierce offensive is not only afraid of the general returning to help, but also proves that their food and grass reserves are insufficient."
Xu Daniu was very surprised and said: "Ma'am, how did you know?" All the secret agents placed in Beiyao were exposed, and they had no news from there for a long time.
Yuxi said with a smile: "The general has blocked the city gate for the past two years, not letting a grain of grain flow out of the pass. This time the 250,000 army was captured in the north, and they didn't have much food to support them, so they thought about it." We need to fight quickly." After breaking through Yucheng, we can get food.
Xu Daniu felt that Yu Xi was right.
Yu Xi said: "I believe that the general will bring reinforcements back within ten days at the most. As long as the general returns, Yucheng will be able to defend."
Xu Daniu said: "Ma'am, shall I go and pass on these words to General Zhao?" The enemy's offensive was so fierce that the soldiers were uncertain.
Yuxi nodded.
Looking at Xu Daniu's back, A Wan said: "Ma'am, if the general does not come back after ten days, what should I do?"
Looking at the high city wall, Yu Xi said lightly: "With the offensive of the captives in the north, ten days is the limit."
A Guan said with a half-smile: "Didn't you just say that the food and grass for the northern captives were not enough? Why did you say something else now? Are you lying to them?"
Yu Xi turned around and looked at A Guan, and said, "The Beiyao people certainly don't have much food and grass, but it shouldn't be a problem to support them for more than ten days."
Awan didn't say anything more.
At noon, Yuxi didn't go back to Yunfu for dinner. Sister Quan also knew Yu Xi's temperament, so she directly asked someone to bring the medicinal meal she made to Yu Xi.
Yuxi has no appetite at all, but she still eats without taste. As for the food sent by Yunfu, she sent it to the wounded soldiers in the wounded barracks. She ate two steamed buns and drank a bowl of egg drop soup.
The fighting continued until dark. But this time, Yuxi's body couldn't bear it, so she was forced to take her back by Awan.
Looking at Yu Xi's pale face, Master Yang said under the carriage: "Girl Han, don't come here again tomorrow, your body will not be able to take it anymore."
Yu Xi shook her head and said: "I'm just a little tired, I'll be fine after a night of sleep." Speaking of this, Yu Xi smiled bitterly and said: "With such a fierce offensive, there must be no less than 20,000 casualties today. According to this speed, how can we sustain it?" Get ten days." It can only last five days at most.
A Guan said aloud: "Madam, there is still time to leave Yucheng."
Yu Xi didn't speak, but just shook her head. R8
