[Rebirth] Emperor Yonggao Ji

Sun Erbao was leaning against the bottom of the wall with his head drooping, not to mention his usual drooping eyebrows, which collapsed like a mountain of loess washed by heavy rain, which seemed to stick to his eyelids.

Suddenly, his outstretched foot was kicked by someone, and he moved. As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard someone say, "Sun Ergou, I said why are you hiding in the corner and being lazy again? Get up and help move!" !"

After seeing it clearly, Sun Erbao shivered and quickly blocked his eyes, "No, no, no, no... I feel weak in my calves when I see a dead person, and I can't stand up..."

"Fuck you! You won't be weak when Liang Jun comes up." The man spat at him, grabbed two hands, and dragged a corpse away.The corpse was missing half a leg, which saved him a lot of energy.

After he left, Sun Erbao looked around and saw that the ground was full of such dead people. He said "Ouch", and quickly closed his eyes tightly. Afraid that this was not enough, he raised his hand to hold his eyes, and lowered his eyes deeply again. head to go.

He joined the army because he wanted to make a living. In fact, he would have to shake for a long time even to kill a chicken. How could he kill someone?But he is also really lucky. He has been in the army for three years and has never fought a battle. In addition to eating and training every day, it is not much harder than farming.But his luck still ended here - this Xiangyang city, they have been defending it for more than half a year, and there are so many dead people on the top of the city almost every day. After all, Liang Jun did not climb up the city, but they did not see the reinforcements either. , even if it is one and a half horses.

He heard that there was also a war in the north, and the war with Zhao Guo was even more fierce than here.I heard that not only the king, but also the former general who surrendered from the Wei Kingdom, and even their well-mannered prime minister went to the battlefield - he saw the prime minister once in Chang'an from a distance, and it seemed that the wind would blow , I don't know how he can lift a big knife like that.

Later they heard that the battle in the north was over. They thought that after being besieged for half a year, the imperial court could finally send reinforcements to throw all the dwarf monkeys in Nanliang into the Yangtze River and drown them. They were so happy that they didn't fall asleep for several nights .But after waiting and waiting, no one came. Finally, I heard that the prime minister returned to Chang'an by himself, and the generals stayed in the north, saying that they wanted to take down Zhao's capital.

Don't fight, don't fight, they have been surrounded for eight months, if they don't send reinforcements, they will all die.

Sun Erbao dozed off.Because of the large number of people, Liang Jun fought day and night. He hadn't had a good night's sleep for many days.In the dream, he suddenly saw his original one-acre field, the brown soil was plowed neatly, and nothing was planted on it, so he bent down to pick up the hoe, held it in his hand and looked, ah, isn’t this His knife?There was a blade missing on the edge of the knife. It was the opening left when a Liang soldier who climbed up the city wall swung his knife to slash him two days ago, but he subconsciously set up the knife to block it.Thanks to this knife and Wu Shui, Wu Shui was standing next to him, and when he heard his cry, he turned around and chopped off that Liang Bing with a single knife, so just now he scolded himself, Sun Ergou, and he also Not angry.He looked at the knife and smiled, but suddenly stretched out a hand from the ground, also holding a knife, and slashed towards his face.

He woke up with a "ah", and heard the sound of war drums in the city, and hugged his head in pain.This is the drumbeat of Liang Jun's march, and it is also the sound of urging his life.

"Get up, get up! Liang Jun is here again!"

"Don't lift it up!"

"Go and report to the general!"

Liu Hao climbed to the top of the wall, his body was covered with blood stains that hadn't been washed off in time, he leaned on the wall and looked at it for a while, his brows furrowed deeply.The arrows were all shot, and there were not many stones and food left in the city, but reinforcements from the Liang Kingdom poured in from outside the city, trying to surround them to death!He sneered, Liang Jun just knew that Dayong was now pouring all his power into the northern expedition to Zhao, so he had invested heavily in the city of Xiangyang, and he was bound to win.

He turned his head, took out two copper boxes from his bosom, and said to the sergeant beside him: "You take a letter of plea for help to Chang'an, and the other to the king, and ask them to send someone. There are too many, tell them that Xiangyang City is in a hurry!"

"Yes!"

"General, the last general thinks that he should go out of the city to fight!"

Liu Hao followed the sound and saw a tall, thin centurion, who was holding his fists towards him, he frowned and said: "Our army is not strong enough, we can only stick to the strong city, if we go out to fight in the field, how can we Will the whole army be wiped out in no time?"

"General, let me tell you! The last general thought that Liang Jun knew our army's inadequacy, so he had the heart to belittle me. Now that his reinforcements are coming again, his momentum is quite strong, and his ambition must be proud. Liang Jun thought that our army would definitely defend Xiangyang to the death, and dared not leave the city. If you go out of the city at this time and rush to attack them, you will definitely be able to greatly dampen the morale of the Liang army and boost the morale of our army."

Liu Hao pondered for a moment, then looked around, "Okay! Who wants to leave the city?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the young centurion shouted loudly before anyone else could speak: "The last general is willing to go!"

"How many people do you want?" Liu Hao looked at him with heavy eyes, as if he was examining and thinking, "Before speaking, I can't give you too many people. After all, keeping Xiangyang is the most important thing."

"At the end there are only 2000 people!"

Without further ado, Liu Hao handed over 2000 people to such a centurion in the army, "Okay! Open the city gate and go out to fight!"

Coincidentally, Sun Erbao was among the 2000 people. As soon as he heard that he was going out of the city to fight the Liang army, he felt that he was dead, his legs went limp, and he almost sat on the ground.He suddenly covered his stomach, his two drooping eyebrows twitched into a ball, "No, no, my stomach hurts..." As he said that, he wanted to hide back, but Wu Shui grabbed him, "Sun Ergou, you Damn, is he a man, if there is shit, you go out of the city and pull it in the faces of those southern monkeys!" Sun Erbao was about to cry, and struggled hard, "Let go!" Hearing their movement, the corporal commander came over with his sword in hand , "Whoever is a deserter, I will cut him down with a sword first!" Sun Erbao didn't dare to move, his narrow shoulders trembled like a quail waiting to be slaughtered.The city gate opened, he clenched his knife tightly with trembling hands, and ran out with everyone.

Liu Hao watched from the city wall, and saw that the centurion did not lead the whole team by himself, but divided the small 2000 people into several groups, and rushed out from various gates in the city. Liang Jun was unprepared, I was really beaten up.Several of his troops marched together, but Liang Jun couldn't distinguish the main force, thinking that Yong's army was going to break through in an all-round way, so he quickly assembled his troops, and was caught off guard in the midst of chaos.

Yong Jun fought for a while, and when Liang Jun hadn't fully recovered, he retreated back into the city and closed the city gate tightly.They hurried out and retreated without any desire to fight. When Liang Jun reacted, there was no shadow of Yong Jun.In this battle, the Yong army attacked the Liang army's 2000 horses with 8 men, and even retreated by itself, beheading a thousand people, but only 150 of them died.

This battle was a deterrent, and Liang Jun retreated ten miles, leaving an open space outside Xiangyang City.

"General, the weapons, cattle and sheep that were snatched this time are all here."

Liu Hao picked up an arrow from the ground, caressed the arrow shaft lovingly, stared at the centurion, carefully sized it up, "What's its name?"

"Geng Yu!"

"Okay, Geng Yu, I'll promote you to Commander-in-Chief. You boy, okay!" Liu Hao gave him a heavy bump on the shoulder. Although the man was thin, he didn't shake it, like a stick firmly stuck in the ground. Spear in the gun, and answered loudly: "Yes!"

Although this battle was fought beautifully, it was based on the fact that Liang Guo's reinforcements came from far away, their foothold was unstable, and the assembly was not yet completed, so it could not be concocted.A day later, Liang Jun was forced to the city again, and this time he could only fight with real swords and guns.

Liang Jun set up the ladder, and Yong Jun tied the grass and hemp poles into bundles, poured oil on them, lit them on fire, and rolled down the ladder.

Liang Jun set up an archery tower and shot arrows into the city from the archery tower. Yong Jun spread hemp grass all over the city, and the arrows were shot in, but the arrows were not broken. The army shot.

Liang Jun dug tunnels and wanted to destroy the city wall from the ground. Yong Jun dug trenches outside the city overnight.

This stalemate lasted for another month. On the walls and under the walls of Xiangyang City, human life was worth less than wormwood in the field. All the incomparable wisdom and creations of human beings had only one purpose here, and that was to kill people.

"General! Someone is coming from Chang'an!"

Liu Hao jumped up, "How many people are here?"

"General, one, one..."

Liu Hao was taken aback for a moment, then sat back slowly.He waved his hand feebly, and summoned Chang'an to come in. When he saw him, he said first, "You can know that you can enter the city now because we have killed 300 brothers and opened a hole in the encirclement of Liang Jun." Tell me, what did Chang'an ask you to bring, whether there are reinforcements, when will there be reinforcements, I want to listen to the heads of my [-] people, what can I say to you."

Lai Shi's expression was a little moved, but he still had a serious face and said: "The prime minister wants me to ask the general, in two months, will the general be able to defend?"

Liu Hao was silent, staring at Lai Shi with both eyes, his gaze made people a little breathless, he was like a firecracker that was on fire, and he didn't know when it would explode suddenly.But in the end, he still said in a deep voice: "Two months, Xiangyang can defend."

The envoy made a bow to him.

The generals stood up with a clatter, "General! We have been on guard for nine months, and we can't stand it any longer!"

"Why didn't the Prime Minister send reinforcements? When Xiangyang City is broken, who will be responsible?"

"Shut up!" Liu Hao slammed his fist on the Shuai case, and the bronze jue on the case jumped up, splashing a string of water, "Who the hell said that the city of Xiangyang was broken? I, Liu Hao, defended the city. I never broke the city." People are dead, I have lived my motherfucker until now, can a city of Xiangyang not be able to hold for two months?"

He paused, took a few heavy breaths, and when he spoke again, his voice was lowered, "There are not many defenders in Chang'an, and the king's army is surrounding Taiyuan City, and it is at a critical moment. Count on it." He looked around at the generals, stood up, and said, "Two months, we can hold on!"

Sun Erbao didn't know what the generals were talking about in the tent, he was enjoying the joy of being alive.The last time he went out of the city, he didn't die, because he had been hiding behind and he was born dexterous, so he didn't even suffer minor injuries.After returning, I don’t know what kind of luck favored him. He was transferred from the city wall to the bottom of the city wall. As long as he guarded the city gate, he felt that he would be safer this time. Thinking of this, his hands did not shake. His legs were no longer weak, but when he heard a loud bang suddenly out of the noisy voices, he turned his head to look at the sound——

Be good, a big hole was smashed into the city wall!

"The wall has collapsed!"

"Report to the general!"

Sun Erbao trembled all over, and instinctively wanted to stay away from that hole—he knew what it meant.Without saying a word, he ran towards the place where the generals were discussing, "I'll report it!"

Geng Yu rushed out with a knife in his hand, "General, I can only step back and fight them all over the street!"

"When it's time to fight in the streets, we won't be far from the city!" Liu Hao pulled out his sword and strode over, "Put the wooden fence I prepared there! Geng Yu! Tell your original centurion to take down the city wall!" Make it up, the rest will defend the city with me!"

Geng Yu showed admiration, and said loudly: "Yes!"

Liang Jun and Yong Jun fought fiercely for Mucha.Liang Jun has been attacking for so long, seeing that a hole was finally opened in the city wall, as if a wolf that had been hungry for a month saw meat, desperately trying to rush in, while the Yong Jun in the city desperately blocked them, Don't let them go over the fence.

Sun Erbao was also placed there. He changed from the luckiest person to the unluckiest person in an instant, and he had to guard the most dangerous place in the whole army.He shrank back little by little, Wu Shui pushed his head against the wooden fence, turned his head and shouted to him: "Sun Ergou! Come and help!" His neck and face were flushed, as if he was drunk , the veins on his arms, neck, and forehead protruded high, making Sun Erbao feel that the blood in his body was about to explode from these veins in an instant.

The enemy army behind the wooden fence climbed up like crazy, and slashed like crazy with knives, people, and the wooden fence. White knives flew around, shining coldly like snowflakes.Sun Erbao was terrified when he saw it, almost crying, he didn't dare to go forward, and he didn't dare to be a deserter, Wu Shui spat at him, turned his head and ignored him.

The wooden fence blocked the opening, and at the same time, Yong Jun quickly laid bricks and stones up from the inside, trying to block the hole.Liang Jun was outside, waving his knife and chopping off every one he saw. He lost countless severed hands on the ground. The scattered palms and half of his arms were piled up in a pile under the city wall.In this way, the hole is getting smaller and smaller.

Liang Jun went to dig the wall again, but the wall that had just been built was still not strong, and a large piece collapsed when he hit it hard.There was Liang Jun who came in from the hole, and he didn't cut people down after he came in, but he chopped down hard according to the wooden fence.The wooden fence was already dilapidated, and if they cut it down two more times, it would surely fall apart. Wu Shui saw that no one came to take care of these people for a while, so he let go of the wooden fence, picked up the knife from under his feet, and slashed at them. past.

He had pushed the wooden fence for too long, his arms were already stiff, and he took up the knife with great difficulty, but accidentally hit the city wall when he slashed over it. He only heard a "bang", and the knife was released from his hand.Those Liang soldiers were also determined to die, and they didn't even look at anyone. They wanted to cut down the wooden fence. Seeing them swinging down the wooden fence, Wu Shui shouted: "Sons, your father is here!" !"

Then he threw himself in front of the hole, lying on the gap made by the wooden fence.

That was the last sentence he said, but in the blink of an eye, his back was chopped into mud, and the stubble of his bones burst out, but he still clung to the wooden fence and did not let go, his arms were like It's like growing out of the wooden fence.You Yongbing noticed this side and started fighting with Liang Jun who rushed in.

Sun Erbao watched tremblingly, he didn't want to see dead people, but he looked at Wu Shui, but he didn't close his eyes in panic as usual - that's Old Wu!That's not dead.Although half of his body had been cut off, and his eyes protruded high, as if they were about to fall out, he was Old Wu, and he was not dead.

Sun Erbao's tears flowed down. Those Liang soldiers who rushed in had been killed. He held up the knife and went over with the point of the knife pointing down. He stabbed their corpses several hundred times. Thousands of blows, until they were poked into mud and the knife broke apart, and then they stopped crying.

At dusk, the city wall was finally blocked, and Xiangyang was defended again.

At night, Sun Erbao was lying in the barracks, with the side empty and many beds empty.He reached out and touched the bed next to it. It was cold, as if no one had slept on it, but he knew that Wu Shui was still snoring on it yesterday.

It's good to be alive, he thought.He thought again, life is really meaningless.

After that, Liang Jun's offensive slowed down a bit. The soldiers in the city were very happy, but the main generals frowned deeply one by one.The soldiers didn't know, but they knew what was going on. Liang Jun pulled out all the cities near Xiangyang for a while, completely cut off the food road, and turned Xiangyang into a truly isolated city.

Then, the offensive suddenly accelerated.

Liu Hao stood on the city wall, holding a sword in his hand, and kept waving it.Liang Jun attacked the city from all sides at the same time. He dispatched the defenders to fight the fire from all sides at the top of the city, shouting and slashing his throat, coughing up bloody phlegm from time to time.Several archery towers were built outside Xiangyang City, overlooking them, feathered arrows rained down towards the top of the city.Liu Hao personally risked the arrow stone and was hit by several arrows. His subordinates advised him to take shelter behind, but Liu Hao threw his pocket on the ground and said angrily: "A man should die for the country, how can he be spared in the battle!" The generals were moved, Vow to fight to the death with him.

Both the Yong army and the Liang army have only the same military order: those who retreat will be cut!

Above Xiangyang City, corpses piled up like mountains; below Xiangyang City, blood flowed like rivers.A majestic city wall was completely painted blood red, and black crows were circling high in the sky. Below that, broken and twisted corpses were spread out inside and outside the vast city wall. , and swayed like a long tassel on the tip of a spear.Remnants of limbs and broken arms are strewn across the fields, broken halberds and broken blades are buried in the middle, but the strangers rush up to the top of the city like wild ghosts, and then fall from the high city wall and fall on a puddle of broken flesh, becoming a ghost again. A pool of minced meat is nothing like a scene in the world.

Geng Yu was ordered to guard the west gate. Seeing Liang Jun swarming up like ants, he knew that this was not the way to go. After thinking for a while, he ordered half of his soldiers to go to rest.Now Xiangyang is in dire straits, and he doesn't even have the time to close his eyes. No one knows what he meant when he gave this order, but the army ordered it to be strictly prohibited. Although the soldiers were puzzled, they still divided into battalions and retreated to the back rest.

Half of the people here were withdrawn, and Ximen's defense immediately became insufficient.Seeing that the city had finally exposed its flaws, Liang Jun gathered his siege equipment towards the west gate, intending to use this as a breakthrough to break into Xiangyang.These siege equipment were very bulky, and it was naturally impossible to push them all the way from the other gates to the west gate, so they dismantled the equipment, transported it to the west gate and reassembled it.Seeing them busy outside the door, Geng Yu borrowed all the remaining horses in the army from Liu Hao, let the half of them get on the horses, and rushed out of the city with him.

Liang Jun was assembling trebuchets in several groups, but unexpectedly, a group of cavalry rushed out from the door. They rushed to the front in the blink of an eye, and swung knives on both sides of the horse. , without blinking an eye.These Liang Jun had no weapons in their hands, and they had no power to fight back. Yong Jun slashed at them with his knife, as if he was chopping vegetables.

Liang Jun's army had to go back a little bit, and Geng Yu divided the cavalry into two teams. Before they could react, one team would kill as many as they could. Once Liang Jun organized a counterattack, they quickly returned to the city. The other team stayed behind to destroy the trebuchet, and the cut wood was brought back to the city, burned and thrown at Liang Jun.

This time, he destroyed half of Liang Jun's trebuchets, captured countless more, increased his own ambition, destroyed the prestige of others, and unexpectedly turned the tide, and once again defended the crumbling Xiangyang City.

At this time, there was still one month left before the agreed two-month period.

There were fewer people in Xiangyang City, but the morale was up. Liu Hao looked around the crowd, his expression was like a stone, and told them again: "We can hold it."

Unexpectedly, that night, meteorites rained like rain, there was a sudden earthquake, the sound was like thunder, the Han River stopped flowing, and the ground cracked into canals——

The city of Xiangyang was destroyed.

Liu Hao called all the generals and summoned the whole army. His gaze swept over each individual's face, and everyone's eyes were exactly the same.He calmly said: "The city wall has been damaged in five places, and it cannot be repaired."

After a moment of silence, he added, "The only way to go is to let the Liang army into the city and fight them in the streets."

He looked around at all the people, and suddenly shouted: "The time to be loyal to the country has come, those who are willing to die with me, let the left!" After speaking, he tore off the clothes on the left side, tucked the sleeves into his belt, and looked at everyone.Everyone looked at him without saying a word, and also showed their left arms.

They were silent, the torches were crackling, and Liang Jun's voices poured in from all over the place. They surrounded each other, but they were all silent—silence is the most powerful force.

Liu Hao turned to Geng Yu, and this young man also took off his clothes on the left side, revealing half of his lean chest. For ten months, the outline of his ribs has faintly appeared on his body.Liu Hao handed him the letter in his hand, "You take this letter to break through, and you must send it to Chang'an, and hand it over to the king in the future."

Geng Yu was stunned for a moment, then knelt down and said, "The last general swears to live and die with Xiangyang and the general!"

Liu Hao wanted to put the letter into his hand, but he still didn't accept it, still knelt stubbornly, his hands clenched into fists.Liu Hao lashed him with a horsewhip, and this time he was merciless, drawing a blood mark on him, and another light red oozes out of the dark red, "This is a major national event! Send it to me! Do you hear me!"

Geng Yu was so angry that he took the letter and put it into his arms, hissing loudly: "Yes! The general will definitely deliver it with all his might!"

"Okay, serve the wine!"

"General, there is no more wine."

"Then get in the water!"

The sergeant ran back with two bowls, each filled with white water, which had been spilled until only half of it was left.Liu Hao and Geng Yu drank a bowl facing each other, raised the bowl and head vigorously, drank a large bowl of water, then lowered their heads, empty bowl to empty bowl, and looked at each other silently for a moment.Liu Hao said: "When you see the king, explain to him the situation in our Xiangyang City, and tell him—"

"We don't have a coward in Xiangyang City!"

All the generals also echoed in unison, "We don't have a single coward in Xiangyang City!"

Without saying a word, Geng Yu slammed the bowl on the ground, clasped his fists together and got on the horse, took a deep look at the crowd, then raised the whip and dropped it down abruptly. A hundred people followed him and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

The final fierce battle in Xiangyang City has begun.The Yong army fought and retreated, ambushing in every street, Liang Jun opened the city gate, and poured in from all sides.The flames lit up in all directions, corpses filled the streets and alleys, and blood flowed out, as if flowing through the intricate blood vessels of this Xiangyang city.

Liu Hao and the last fourteen people were surrounded by Liang Jun. He inserted the commander's flag into the ground and held the flagpole with one hand.He looked at the others, did not speak, but gradually shook hands.Fifteen hands held the flag up and down, and thirty eyes gleamed brightly in the blood.

The flag unfolded in the strong wind, and then fell down and hit the flagpole, with the word "Yong" looming on it.

"When the Yong flag is planted at the head of Xiangyang City again, let's gather under the flag again," Liu Hao said with a smile: "Drink his mother's wine together!"

Everyone laughed, "Drink every day!"

Sun Erbao also smiled, he was so lucky, but also too timid, he was trembling all over while laughing.Liang Jun surrounded him, and the knives in their hands reflected the flames. The knife was about to chop off his head, his two arms and two legs, and stab into his chest, slashing open his stomach, and let the His heart flowed out like water along with his intestines, turning him into a puddle of flesh and blood, which flowed into the soil little by little.

As Liang Jun approached, he was still smiling and shaking, he was so afraid of death, so scared to death.In fact, what is so terrible about death?Once the knife is cut down, the blood spurts out, and the person falls down, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

The gleaming knives finally approached and pressed against the tip of his nose, and he stopped laughing and shaking suddenly, and Wu Shui's voice sounded in his ears, and he said to himself: "Sun Er Dog, do you dare to go up?"

He shouted violently, and suddenly rushed towards Liang Jun with a knife in his hand. He rushed into hundreds of knife points by himself, and shouted loudly: "Sons, your father is here!"
