Unparalleled Concubine

At this time, He Song was leading his men to pretend to be attacking the city near Mianzhu. From time to time, he led people close to the place where an arrow was shot, and shot two arrows at the top of the city with a bow and crossbow.

Of course, this kind of low shooting high is extremely difficult to make achievements. In five days, He Song and his subordinates only shot five or six arrows, and all of them were injured, and none of them died.

When it was almost noon, He Song was taking his brothers to make a fire in the wild.

Anyway, the people in Mianzhu would not go out of the city to fight if they were beaten to death, so He Song and others were extremely arrogant, so they lit a fire and cooked at a place visible to the naked eye at the head of Mianzhu city.

The meal was half done, and before they had time to eat, a big black horse broke into their formation.

This is Li Xin's mount, Mo Xiao, but the one sitting immediately is Zhao Jia, a military strategist in the army.

In fact, the people of the Forbidden Army were not too impressed with Zhao Jia as a military adviser at first, but some time ago, in order to accurately count the lives of the soldiers who died in battle, Zhao Jia did not hesitate to ask the bottom soldiers one by one, so that the Forbidden Army gained a lot of favor for him.

Moreover, Zhao Jia was born in Chen Guogong's mansion, and Zhechong Duwei He Song was also born in Chen Guogong's mansion. Although the two did not know each other beforehand, they are getting closer to each other now.

Seeing Zhao Jia coming on horseback, He Song waved at him, and said with a loud smile, "Brother Zhao, come here, when we were circling around with those people in Mianzhu just now, the men under his command hunted a fat rabbit, fix it quickly Here, come and share your thigh!"

Zhao Jia dismounted in front of He Song.

He Song enthusiastically pulled him to sit down, tore off a hind leg from the big rabbit in front of him, and stuffed it into Zhao Jia's hand.

"A rare tooth sacrifice, try it."

He Song smiled sincerely.

But Zhao Jia was quite uncomfortable. He opened his mouth to say something, but he never said it.

He Song is already an old man in his 50s and [-]s. He originally lived in Chen Guogong's mansion for the elderly. He joined the army again because he wanted to help Li Xin get the forbidden army.

He pulled Zhao Jia to his side and sat down, took a bite of the rabbit's leg first, then squinted his eyes and smiled, "General Li wants us to attack Zhechong Mansion?"

Zhao Jia was startled, and asked in amazement, "How did Brother He know?"

He Song laughed.

"Brother Zhao, you are extremely smart. My brother recognizes it, but you don't have enough capital after all, and everything is written on your face."

Indeed, anyone could guess Zhao Jia's troubled look.

He Song took another bite of the rabbit's leg, and said with a smile, "Brother Zhao, don't worry, when I finish eating this rabbit, I will build up some strength and immediately lead my brothers to attack the city."

He smiled broadly.

This is a general who fought with Ye Ming in northern Xinjiang in the early years. Later, due to some personal reasons, he returned to the capital and went to Chen Guogong's mansion to "retire".

Now returning to the battlefield, the widowless and childless Captain Zhechong has nothing to fear.

Seeing He Song's expression, the rabbit leg in Zhao Jia's hand suddenly felt a little hard to swallow.

Just when Zhao Jia was in a daze, He Song had already finished eating the remaining rabbit in his hand in two or three bites. He stood up, reached out and patted Zhao Jia's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao doesn't need to look like this, this is to attack City, not to die."

Having said that, He Song paused for a moment, and gave Zhao Jia a word.

"If I die unfortunately, brother Zhao will help take care of the young man. I promised the general to protect him as much as possible."

Zhao Jia nodded dumbly.

He Song smiled boldly and walked away happily.

So, on the sixth day of Li Xin's official attack on Mianzhu, Captain Guo Yi took the place of Captain Zhechong and Captain He Songhe personally led 5000 people and charged in the direction of Mianzhu!

Quite a taste of going forward.

Li Xin watched this scene with binoculars from a distance, muttering to himself.

There is no way.

There's always someone on...

Chapter 527 Do it yourself!

At the beginning, Li Xin was struggling in the capital. At that time, in order to get ahead, he could only sharpen his head and drill into the officialdom, but at that time Li Xin was planning for the future.

He knew very well that if he chose to be a civil servant, let alone whether he would have the opportunity to ask the Pingnan Hou Mansion for an explanation in this life, at least he would not be able to ask Li Shen for an explanation in person.

So at that time, he chose to join Habayashi Guard and became a military officer.

Becoming a military officer will inevitably see blood on his hands. Li Xin was mentally prepared for this, but after the death of nearly forty brothers in Xiao Chenji, he still couldn't accept it.

Xiao Chen Ji happened in the summer of Chengde's 18th year.

But now, it is the end of the second year of Taikang, and more than two years have passed. Compared with Li Xin at the beginning, Li Xin now has a much more resolute heart, but this time, the battle of Mianzhu is still so tragic. The young Marquis of Jing'an found it hard to accept.

Too many people died.

In just half a day, less than half of He Song's 5000 men were killed in battle. When the sun set and Li Xin ordered the withdrawal of the troops, the grounds of Mianzhu City were already scarlet!

Li Xin was on a high ground and witnessed the battle with a telescope.

Because there were not many catapults, He Song's troops could only rush forward with the ladder.

Both sides knew very well that it was impossible for the first wave to rush down Mianzhu City, but such a rush was not meaningless. As long as Li Xin was willing to die, he had 5 to [-] people, and he could attack again and again. a month.

If there is an attack of this level every day, at most half a month, as long as Jincheng does not send reinforcements, then Mianzhu should be attacked like this.

Throughout the ages, many generals attacked cities in this way.

Logically speaking, Li Xin should not have any psychological barriers in doing so.

But after all, he is not a native of this world, he is not a young man who grew up among generals, and no one told him that kindness does not hold soldiers since he was a child.

His worldview is different from most people in this world.

As night fell, Li Xin sat alone in this place not far from Mianzhu City, dazed in a daze.

Until Zhao Jia, who was holding a torch, found him.

Zhao Youan didn't say much, just threw the torch aside, just like Li Xin, he sat down on the ground.

He sighed.

"Master Hou, this is how wars are fought. Uncle Ye attacked Jiange, and more people died."

"Jiange is much more difficult to fight than Mianzhu. Uncle Ye attacked for three days in one go, and nearly ten thousand people were killed or injured by the imperial army."

Li Xin was still sitting on the ground, ignoring him.

Zhao Jia forced a smile.
