Chapter 663: Snowstorm and Cold Blade (15)
"Wei Ran!" Yan Peng rode up to Luo Weiran who was covered in blood. The latter was reaching out to pick up the snow on the ground and wiping the blood on his face. When he saw Yan Peng coming over, he clapped his hands and turned red. Snow powder fell to the ground.
"Commander."
Yan Peng nodded without dismounting, "Take care along the way. Come back alive."
Luo Weiran grinned. The blood on his face had not been wiped off yet, but his smile looked a bit ferocious, "Commander, don't worry, I am determined to survive. Let's see if Commander Helan can seize the opportunity in this battle. Our place has been cut off from the Governor, and the news cannot be sent in. Although you sent a letter to Commander Helan, the decision is still in the hands of Commander Helan. If Commander Helan cannot make this determination, the battle will still be over. Fight. Forget it, let’s not talk about it. It’s up to people to make things happen. I’ll leave it to you to clean up the battlefield. I’m in a hurry.”
Yan Peng smiled and waved to him, "See you in victory. The Eastern Army will win a thousand victories!"
"The Eastern Army will be victorious!" Luo Weiran turned around and walked aside. His assembled army, the wounded, and the dead would all be taken back to Tongwan City by Yan Peng, while he would rush to another place.
Dubo, another day of siege, Moyan Duo once again returned without success. Hundreds of Donghu corpses fell under the Dubo stronghold. The small Dubo stronghold had already made Moyan Duo invincible. We were delayed here for three whole days, and the time Yan Qi gave Moyandu had passed, but Dubo village seemed to be still as solid as a rock, which made Moyandu and Gu Jili feel very depressed.
Compared to Mo Yandu and Gu Jili, He Tianju, the actual commander of this war, seemed very relaxed. He even drank two more drinks at dinner in the evening. Seeing He Tianju pouring himself a drink with enthusiasm, his forehead was agitated. Gu Jili, who was in the lawsuit, couldn't help but feel angry. Just when he was about to get angry, Mo Yandu gave him a stern look in time. He suppressed all Gu Jili's words.
In the past few days, Mo Yandu has also noticed that He Tianju is indeed doing his best to command the Donghu army to attack the city. However, it is undeniable that the Donghu people still lack some siege skills. This is not a clever commander. What can be changed in a short period of time, in the past three days, Mo Yanduo has experienced a variety of siege techniques and defensive techniques, which opened his eyes and made him realize that he has made a lot of progress. He knew very well that if he had been commanding this battle, he was afraid that the casualties would have more than doubled by now.
"General He, three days have passed." Mo Yandu looked at He Tianju.
"Don't worry, General Moyanduo. Tomorrow, Dubo Stronghold will be destroyed!" He Tianju raised his glass to Moyanduo and signaled. He tilted his neck and drank it all in one gulp.
"Eat a lamp grass, that's putting it lightly!" Gu Jili couldn't bear it any longer and sarcastically said: "Today, Dubo Village still resisted extremely tenaciously. We didn't even climb up the city wall. Tomorrow,
What are you using to destroy the city? "
He Tianju smiled. "General Gujili, I wonder if you have noticed that there are more people in the city's defense today who shouldn't be there."
"People who shouldn't appear? Who shouldn't appear?" Gu Jili was confused.
"Wounded soldiers, and seriously wounded soldiers. I even saw a man with a broken arm climbing the city wall with a spear in one hand. Do you know what this means?" He Tianju asked.
Gu Jili was stunned. He had never noticed these details before.
But Mo Yandu's eyes lit up: "In other words, the number of troops in the city is seriously insufficient, and even such seriously injured soldiers are on the city wall."
He Tianju nodded, "In my estimation, there are at most two hundred to three hundred soldiers in Dubo Stronghold who can still go into battle. They can only put up a thin layer of defense on Dubo Stronghold. It's so thin." The defense will be broken with just one stab. So, tomorrow, our strategy is to besiege them from all sides and go into battle together, with a sea of people, to pile them up alive. "
Moyan stood up excitedly, "No wonder General He is so confident, but General He should have said it earlier. He is so depressed, but it makes us anxious in vain."
"What's so exciting about building such a small village?" He Tianju shook his head.
Mo Yan Du smiled and was about to say something when a tooth general barged in from outside. He looked at Mo Yan Du and said with a pale face: "General, it's not good."
"What's the matter? What happened again?" Mo Yan looked at him angrily. Just when he was happy, this fool came to spoil his fun.
"After today's meal, there were a large number of hungry people in each camp. The generals of each camp complained incessantly. In the camp with the most, half of the people fell and they were unable to move forward." The tooth general said in panic. .
"What?" Moyandu, Gu Jili and He Tianju stood up at the same time. The last time he had a bad stomach, Moyandu thought it was caused by moldy food. Since then, the food in the army has been strictly inspected. , make sure the food is fresh before putting it in the pot, why do so many people have diarrhea?
"There is a spy!" He Tianju muttered.
"How is this possible? If there was a spy, why didn't he poison us all to death? Wouldn't it be a clean slate?" Gu Jili shook his head in disbelief.
"There are so many people here, where can he find so many poisons that can kill people? What's more, most of the poisons have color and smell. If they are put into the food, they can't be seen or smelled? They will only make people have diarrhea. Things are available everywhere, and as long as there are enough raw materials, they can be prepared in large quantities in a short time, so there must be spies." He Tianju said.
"Check, go to all the camps and check!" Mo Yanduo was so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas fell to the ground. He had just received the good news from He Tianju that the city would be breached tomorrow, and he struck down with a sap on the head.
The three of them were walking in the camp, their expressions were extremely ugly. The camp was almost like an open-air hut. Yellow and white things could be seen everywhere, and the unpleasant stench could not be blown away even by such a strong wind. As they dispersed, the groans of soldiers could be heard from everywhere. From time to time, soldiers were seen rushing out with their pants lifted. Before they could run a few steps, they squatted on the spot. Some of them didn't even have time to untie their pants. In front of Mo Yandu, he pulled his pants down.
After inspecting the whole camp, the three people returned to the big tent. "Three thousand people actually fell. This is really a joke. Among the entire army, there are no more than five thousand people who can still fight. There is still one person among them." Qian is an infantryman. Are we still going to fight tomorrow?" Mo Yandu looked at He Tianju and asked.
"Fight, of course we have to fight." He Tianju said with a sullen face, "Why are there still five thousand alive and kicking? How can we not easily capture the two to three hundred defenders in Dubo Village?"
"Fight, take Dubo Village, I will skin and bones all the Eastern Expeditionary Army inside." Mo Yandu said viciously. Even if we win this battle, we will win it too embarrassingly.
In Dubo Village, Chen Bin walked heavily on the city wall. All the living soldiers were on the city wall, counting those standing, sitting, and lying down. He was only in his early two hundred years, and none of them were still intact.
"Captain, won't we be able to stop him tomorrow?" Xiao Mozi received another stab in the leg. Seeing Chen Bin coming, he stood up with a spear and asked.
Chen Bin was a little sad. Little Mozi was only seventeen years old. Tomorrow, there would be no escape, and he didn't want to hide it from them. Looking at the bright eyes around him, he nodded seriously, "Yes, tomorrow, we won't be able to hold on anymore, and we have to go find the comrades who left first. Are you afraid?"
After a moment of silence, Xiao Mozi said with a smile: "When the leader said this, I was really a little scared, but once the fight started, I wasn't afraid of anything anymore, and I died very quickly. With one strike, there was a chirp. I don’t know anything anymore. I just want to kill a few Donghu soldiers before I die. Commander, tomorrow I will take the spear and go to the ramp. Speaking of which, I haven’t stabbed a Donghu cavalry to death yet. , I have to kill one of them before I die, Commander, do you agree?"
"Okay, you go there tomorrow, but it's not enough to just stab one to death, you have to at least two."
"Two? I'll do my best!" Xiao Mozi said.
"Everyone stabbed two to death. There are two hundred of us here, but we can still kill four hundred Donghu people. That's enough!" Chen Bin looked at everyone and said with a smile.
"That's enough. I've killed seven or eight people in the past few days." Someone laughed, "I'll get two more tomorrow and we'll make up a round number."
"I have only killed six. If I want to round up the whole number, I will have to kill four more tomorrow. This is a bit difficult!"
Listening to everyone talking about his achievements in the past few days, Chen Bin smiled and turned around and walked down the city wall. As soon as he turned around, his eyes became hot and tears almost fell, and he walked along the inclined staircase. Under the city wall, there are rows of remains of brothers who died in the past few days. The bodies of the brothers who died in the earliest battle were neatly collected, but those who just died in battle today were just carried here. Chen Bin walked over silently. , arranged the bodies of the fallen brothers one by one, and stretched out his hands to wipe the blood on their faces.
"Brothers, walk slower on the road. Tomorrow, I will take the remaining brothers and chase you. But don't go too fast. If you don't pay attention, you will drink Meng Po soup. After crossing the Naihe Bridge, let's Brothers can no longer walk together."
Chen Bin was determined to die and did not think about being alive at all. At this time, on the west bank hundreds of miles away from Dubo Village, He Lanyan was holding a secret letter written by Yan Peng in his hand, but he was a little hesitant. The news from Yan Peng surprised her. If everything went as Yan Peng predicted, then this battle would most likely end early. However, this was inconsistent with Gao Yuan's pre-war deployment. If the unauthorized action failed, it would be in danger. overall situation. But now, Yan Peng has begun to take action. If he doesn't move here, I'm afraid Luo Weiran will also be in danger.
"Sir, what should I do?" Gongsun Yi looked at He Lanyan nervously. At this time, he was extremely glad that the teacher was He Lanyan and not him. Otherwise, facing such a situation, he really didn't know how to make a decision.
"Teacher, let's do it!" Luo Lei jumped to the side and said, "Every moment now may be the lives of our brothers!"
Helan Yan stood up excitedly, "Gongsun Yi, you immediately ask the military judge in the army to write a few letters in secret words, and then rush to Pioneer City, take the opportunity to shoot the letter with an arrow, and inform us of the changes here. Luo Lei, send an order to the entire army to pull out the camp and rush to Dubo Village. We will destroy Moyandu first and then assist Luo Weiran!" (To be continued...) ()
