The feudal lord is on Taobao every day

When the leader said this, the people who reported it were worried, and quickly responded happily. They happily ran and yelled, beckoning the people to gather quickly, and went out of the city with the leader after a while. Make an exchange.

Although he was half-believed in his heart, the leader still went up to the city wall to take a look. The city wall of Tanping Pass was extremely high, and it was late at night, so people couldn’t see clearly from top to bottom. He squinted his eyes and looked at it. After a long time, I could only see vague outlines, but those people were wearing their own clothes, and the horses they rode were taller than those of the Zhou Dynasty, so they should be their people.

Just in case, the leader yelled a few more words at the top of his voice: "Which tribe do you belong to? Was Pingzhou captured yesterday? The general in Pingzhou, the general surnamed Song, died or was he captured?" Captured alive?"

It stands to reason that in the quiet night, the leader shouted at the top of his voice, they should have heard it clearly, but there was someone running around beside him yelling to call the assembly, so Lin Yan could not hear clearly. Hearing this, he turned his head and made a gesture to Chen Wu, and repeated the words of the leader, and then saw Chen Wu was silent for a moment, and then replied with the same voice: "We are from the Kantaner tribe. The state was breached by the Great Khan the afternoon before yesterday, and the general surnamed Song was already dead, hacked to death by tribal warriors, and the Great Khan chopped off his head himself, saying that he would pay for the dead warrior's life."

Kantal is a middle-level tribe in Jaheli. Although it is not very powerful and there are not many people, it is the most loyal to the Great Khan. The people opened the gate of the city and let them in, and saw the people below commotion suddenly, as if they were completely impatient to wait, the voice just now said again: "Do you want to exchange, if you don't, we will go back , I heard that a prince from the Great Zhou Dynasty came to Pingzhou, but escaped before the city was broken, and Da Khan is making people arrest him everywhere. If we go back now, maybe we can catch that one before the other warriors Lord of the Zhou Dynasty, in this way we will have made great contributions, and we can share more slaves, maybe next time the Khan attacks the city, I can be at the forefront and make even greater contributions."

After saying this, the people below were really about to turn around, as if they had completed the task and went back to the house, the leader suddenly became anxious, and his mind was full of meritorious service and robbing slaves, so there was no doubt about it. The sound urged the defenders in the city to gather together, and shouted down, hurriedly got off the city wall and got on the horse.

At this time, the people and horses had not gathered yet, but the leader obviously couldn't wait any longer, urged the people to open the city gate, kicked the horse's belly, and rushed out first, and the people who had gathered behind him were equally excited, waving weapons , shouting loudly as if celebrating, and rushed to the gate of the city.

Xu Duizheng and others were all a bit surprised that they were so easily tricked into opening the city gate and chasing them out. Only Lin Yan seemed to have expected it a long time ago. I just waited for the Jahe people to come to the front, so that I could hack and kill them with all my strength, so as to repay the sorrow of so many people of the Zhou Dynasty who had been killed by them over the years.

Xu Dui was stunned, and subconsciously clenched the weapon in his hand, but it was a bit unbelievable, and he couldn't help but whispered in surprise: "These people opened the city gate so easily? They are the city guards. Are you stupid? So easy to be fooled?"

Xu Dui was afraid that the people who were galloping out of the city would hear him, so he lowered his voice very low, Lin Yan also lowered his voice, and said with a sneer: "It's not that they are stupid in guarding the city, but they think that the people of the Zhou Dynasty don't have the courage. I won’t dare to sneak attack.”

This statement is reasonable, Xu Duzheng suddenly realized, and then he was furious, his face sank in an instant, and he almost gritted his teeth and said: "Let them see for a while, whether the Great Zhou Dynasty is full of people. A bunch of cowards."

While they were talking, the Jaheo defenders running out of the city gate were not far away from them. There were a lot of people, but there was no formation. The whole team was loose and loose. At the front, the closer you are, the more you can see the distorted expressions on their faces.

Similarly, the closer they were, the more clearly the leader could see the indifferent and even hateful eyes of the group of people on the opposite side.

At this moment, even if the leader was overwhelmed by excitement, he still noticed that something was wrong. He subconsciously stopped the horse, and was vigilant to say something, but before he could say a complete sentence, he saw the person opposite. The horse's belly brushed past him in an instant, and he pulled out his weapon when he felt a chill on his neck, and some hot liquid sprayed out. With a stunned expression on his face, he gradually fell into the darkness .

Following Lin Yan's actions, a great battle broke out. At the same time, the battle to defend Pingzhou became more and more difficult.

This is the second day when Jaheo re-launched the attack, probably because he was really holding on to the fact that he had already been exposed anyway, so he simply broke the can and broke the heart. The city wall, the defenders of Pingzhou fought back dangerously. Although Pingzhou was still in their hands, the casualties were increasing day by day. Even the old guards around Xie Jingan also defended the city wall. , did not inherit the good skills of the original owner at all, he really wished he could go up there himself.

The night came again, different from yesterday, Jae Heo took advantage of the night and still fought with them for nearly an hour, until the night was getting dark, and he could hardly see his fingers, then he reluctantly retreated.

After receiving the news of Jahe's retreat, Xie Jingan couldn't wait to go to the city wall. At this time, the Pingzhou city wall was being cleaned up after the battle. The seriously injured soldiers were carried down for treatment, and the slightly injured were dealt with hastily. There were also people who collected the corpses, carried them down and put them together, waiting for the war to end and bury them together.

The whole cleaning process was numb and quiet, and even the seriously injured soldier restrained himself from screaming in pain. He was obviously used to this kind of situation, but after Xie Jingan saw it, he felt a complicated emotion in his heart.

He also couldn't tell what this emotion was. There was shock, emotion, sadness, guilt and regret.

He watched a young-looking soldier, who seemed to have just grown up, be carried down with one arm cut off, and his guilt and regret grew stronger. He suddenly thought, if it wasn't for his insistence on refusing to make peace, then Are these people not going to die?

As soon as this kind of thought came out, it quickly submerged him like a rising tide, but after Wei Changshi called him, he quickly got rid of that emotion, but in the end his heart was very heavy, even if he gradually Learning that being a vassal king should be happy and not angry, he couldn't help but look gloomy at this moment.

Wei Changshi had sensed that Xie Jingan's mood was not right just now, and although he couldn't fully guess what he was thinking, he could guess five or six points. After deliberating for a while, he tentatively said: "Your Highness is thinking... If you agree to Jahe Talking about peace, maybe this war will be avoided?"

Wei Changshi was probably afraid that people would hear him, so he kept his voice extremely low, so Xie Jingan was very close to him, so he could hear him clearly, but he didn't answer, his eyes were raised to look in the direction of the army, and he didn't know what he was thinking. .

Wei Changshi looked at Xie Jingan, who was so calm and restless, and suddenly felt a thump in his heart for no reason. He was about to persuade or comfort him, when Xie Jing spoke in a low voice, and said, "I don't regret it, and Don't feel guilty, no matter whether you agree to the peace talks or not, this battle will not be avoided. If the king really agrees to the peace talks, it will lead to the loss of life. This king is just thinking about when the Great Zhou Dynasty will become stronger, as it was in the last period, no one would dare to violate the majesty of the last kingdom..."

Xie Jing'an still had a lot of things to say, but he couldn't speak when he was on the verge of speaking, he just let out a long sigh, and his eyes looking in the direction of his mouth became more and more complicated.

Xie Jingan dared to say this, but Wei Changshi did not dare to criticize, he only dared to echo a few words quietly in his heart, and said cautiously: "The three cities that prevent Jahoo from entering the pass are all under the jurisdiction of His Highness. I don't dare to speak rashly, but I believe that as long as His Highness is here, I will not dare to offend easily, and the lives of the people will become more and more stable."

Xie Jing'an knew that Wei Changshi was comforting him, although his heart was still extremely heavy, he forced a smile to reassure him, and said: "This king also believes that there will be a day, but if there is revenge, if there is revenge, Sooner or later, the king will settle these old accounts between us and Zhuo He."

Compared with the previous times when Jaheo attacked the city, this time the casualties were obviously much higher, but Xie Jingan simply came to Pingzhou this time to bring a lot of herbs, and also brought all the medical officers of the palace, although there were not many medical officers, But they all learned the suture technique when they were in Mozhou, and it came in handy at this time. Xie Jingan bought some antibiotics from Taobao, ground them up, and asked the medical officer to add them to the boil. In the medicine, many people were forced to take their lives back, but even so, there were not many people who could defend the city.

Song Liang had no choice but to gather the young men who hadn't joined the army and the relatively strong criminal slaves in the city, distribute weapons to them, and let them participate in the defense of the city.

In the past, the criminal slaves were the first to be pushed out as cannon fodder when the two armies fought. This time, because they were the defenders of the city, they did not dare to open the city gate except for night raids, so they only went to the battlefield now.

Even the people and criminal slaves who have not received formal training have begun to defend the city. One can imagine how destitute Pingzhou is, and if the three-way army that came to help has not been seen for a long time, no matter how you look at it, it seems like At the end of the road, the city was destroyed and people died.

Even Song Liang, who was always sure of winning, couldn't help becoming impatient, and asked Xie Jingan to go out of the city to avoid disaster several times, but Xie Jingan rejected it every time, and Wei Changshi began to kneel down, crying and persuading: " Your Highness, Pingzhou is about to lose its hold, you should listen to Weichen and General Song's advice and get out of the city quickly, or it will be too late if it is later."

"Out of the city?" Xie Jing'an sneered, looked at Wei Changshi calmly, and said slowly: "What about after leaving the city? Fleeing back to Mozhou like a bereaved dog, and then being escorted back to Chang'an by the emperor as a repeat offender for trial. Impeached by the officials and scolded by the people all over the world, is this the way you choose to live for this king?"

"This, this, this..." Wei Changshi wanted to save Xie Jingan's life, but he didn't expect this. He broke out in a cold sweat when he was asked by Xie Jingan like this, and couldn't think of a way to persuade him. At least one life can be spared. Besides, His Highness is a prince and a vassal king. Even if the Holy One is angry, he will not blame His Highness too much. What's more, there are so many people in His Highness's fief who rely on His Highness. Nothing can happen."

After Wei Changshi's words fell, Xie Jingan remained silent for a long time, just when Wei Changshi became more and more uneasy, and wanted to say something more, Xie Jingan suddenly smiled softly, his tone was full of sarcasm and ridicule, and said: "Prince? King? How about the prince, what about the king, Kang Angui is a princess, and she is only eight years old this year, and she is still a child. Didn't she say that she was abandoned when she was abandoned? If Pingzhou is really broken, this king is really as you said If you run away alone, the emperor will appease the anger of the officials for the sake of the common people, even if this king does not die, he will live a life worse than death, do you believe it or not?"

Wei Changshi was extremely disturbed by Xie Jingan's words, he looked at him in panic, he didn't know whether to believe it or not, his lips twitched, he was unable to say a word for a long time.

Simply, Xie Jingan didn't intend to listen to him at all, and didn't care what he said, he put the teacup in his hand heavily on the table, and said indifferently: "Rather than live like that, I would rather die in Pingzhou with all the soldiers."

It was obvious that Xie Jingan had made up his mind, and there was no room for change. Wei Changshi suddenly felt cold, and fell to the ground. After a while, he showed an expression that seemed to be crying, and kowtowed slowly on the ground, trembling. He said: "Since His Highness has made up his mind, I, as the Chief History Officer of Prince Shun, will naturally live and die with His Highness."

Xie Jingan originally thought that Wei Changshi wanted to persuade him to say something, but he didn't expect to say these words, he was surprised, but also a little moved, he hurriedly got up and walked to Wei Changshi's side, trying to help him up with his own hands, but he didn't know that he just got up and went Seeing Song Liang rushing in with an extremely excited appearance, he didn't bother to salute, and shouted loudly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, Tanping Pass was taken back, General Lin did it, Tanping Pass was taken back, Your Highness, General Lin really took Tanping Pass back."
