Princess Fuyao

Chapter 110
Accompanied by Zaye's hysterical howl, a rain of arrows flew over in the morning light with the sound of howling wind.

Zaye's position is far away from the range of the arrows gathered by the golden arrows. At this moment, his personal soldiers are all shooting arrows with their bows. They never expected that arrows would fly like locusts. For a moment, they could only hear screams Again and again, the soldiers around Zaye fell down like cutting leeks.

Zaye hastily waved the crescent shovel, but unfortunately, his weapon was large and heavy, and the heavy inertia made him unable to dance as he wanted at first. There was another sound of sharp weapons piercing the air, and several sharp arrows shot at him, Zaye Barely blocked half of it, and the other half greeted him. Even with armor protection, Zaye's shoulder, forearm, and left chest were still pierced by arrows.

The worst thing was Zaye's horse, which was hit by no less than five arrows. It raised its front hooves fiercely, let out a long cry of "xi lao", fell to the ground, kicked its legs a few times, and then died, throwing Zaye to the ground. Rolled his eyes and passed out.

Where did this rain of arrows come from?It turned out to be a group of troops led by Yinhu. They successfully burned the food and grass that attacked the Golden Arrow Collection Tartars, but they were spotted by the Tartar soldiers guarding the storehouse, and they chased them down.

To enter the north gate of the Golden Arrow Collection, one must lead a horse to climb a section of stone steps. Time has not allowed them to complete such a process calmly, so Yinhu had no choice but to take the risk of leading people to enter through the south gate.

As soon as he reached the base of the city wall, Yinhu saw Zaye commanding his own soldiers to harm Fuyao, and he didn't care about his own safety, so he immediately ordered the soldiers to shoot Zaye.

The Tazi soldiers who were attacking the city suddenly saw their general fall, and immediately became a mess, some were still charging forward, some turned around and retreated, crying like a swarm of bees without a king.

"Come on—" Although there were only three hundred people left, Yinhu still waved his saber as if he was commanding thousands of troops, and took the lead to rush towards the enemy soldiers who were huddled together in front.

The defenders on the city wall immediately noticed the situation outside. Fuyao and Guo Bin only looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts. At this moment, only by opening the city gate and attacking the attacking team of Tartars can Yinhu return safely.

"You are guarding above!" Guo Bin only left a word, and then beckoned to lead the five hundred soldiers from Beijiang to the city.

The suspension bridge at the gate of the city creaked and fell heavily to the ground: "Rush——kill——" Guo Bin was dressed in silver armor, carrying a bright silver gun, and a pure white horse under his crotch, like a The group's dazzling flash rolled out of the city gate, and behind him were about twenty ferocious personal soldiers, one by one leaning over on the back of a horse, carrying heavy weapons and rushing towards the Tartar soldiers at the root of the city.

The Tartars attacked the city in the middle of the night, and they were all exhausted at this moment, especially when the commander fell.The Tartars within [-] feet outside the city of Jinjianji were immediately thrown to the ground.

Fuyao commanded the soldiers to hold bows and crossbows and be on standby at any time. She was afraid that Guo Bin and Yinhu would be red-eyed, so she went to attack Zaye's camp regardless.

Guo Bin did have the idea of ​​charging again. Hearing the sound of withdrawing troops, he had to look back suddenly and cover Yinhu to advance into the city. Then he led his troops to fight and retreat, and returned safely.

"Fuyao, do you know? The Tartars don't have much food and grass, and the nearby people have all hid in the mountains, and they haven't been able to grab food. We've made them even more sad." When Duhu saw Fuyao, he immediately Excited authentic.

"How about the casualties?" Fu Yao smiled at Du Hu, then turned to ask Yin Hu.Yinhu was covered in blood, but looking at his mental state, Fuyao was sure that he was not injured.

"A hundred people were lost." Yinhu showed a sad expression on his face, "The ones guarding the grain depot are the Tartars from Beimo, who are more fierce than the Tartars on Wojin's side. Our soldiers are still not good enough. , no match for the opponent."

"Let Master Liang make clear statistics, report to the imperial court, and give special care to family members."

"Ok!"

At dawn, Fuyao asked Yinhu and Guo Bin to rest first to prevent the Tatars from attacking the city in retaliation. She went to the wounded barracks first, checked the food and medicine here, and comforted the doctor a few words, letting them overcome the difficulties, and make persistent efforts to make the After recovering from more injuries, he went to Liang Xiao's place again.Now, the lives of ordinary people in Golden Arrow Collection are controlled by this master.Liang Xiao has been dealing with things day and night these days, his face is pale, his eyes are red, and his voice is hoarse.There was also a street office in the Yong Dynasty, called Jiachang, one for each street. Of course, the North-South Street facing the city gate, because it was too long and had a large population, there were three.The chief armor left by Wu Shangdong were all masters who ate, took, greedy, occupied, trampled and promoted, and didn't care about the life and death of the people under him. Liang Xiao replaced them all according to Fuyao's intention, and new ones came up. Yes, they are all warm-hearted and fair people recognized in the streets. These days they organized labor forces, helped put out the fire last night, and did a lot of good deeds.But ordinary people, especially those with high enthusiasm, have not been trained, have no sense of organizational discipline, and sometimes do bad things with good intentions. Liang Xiao must patiently and carefully explain the priorities and what is right and wrong. .

"Master Liang, are you exhausted? It's lucky to have you these days, otherwise the people would be in chaos, and the city would not be able to hold on.",

Liang Xiao was so moved by Fuyao's words that he almost shed tears, he was not afraid of being tired, the key was his hard work, someone saw it and got affirmation.

"These days, the armor chiefs have taught you to understand the truth. They carried the food to work in the army, and they knew to wait downstairs at the city gate, instead of rushing to the city tower after making a lot of noise, and they didn't mess with the soldiers' weapons. Running around on the city wall. When the Tartars are defeated, I will definitely ask for credit for you!"

It's rare for Liang Xiao, a black-bellied official fritter, to be a little shy when facing Fuyao's sincere praise: "Don't ask for credit or anything, as long as we can help defend the city, and our Golden Arrow Collection persists until the imperial court reinforces the army, I will be satisfied."

Inside the city of Jinjianji, they were making preparations to stand firm, but the Tartars outside the city wished they could immediately raze the thick city wall to the ground, so that they could gallop on horseback and kill and loot wantonly.Zaye was injured and food and grass were destroyed, which made Grand Marshal Dam very annoyed.He brought 12 soldiers and horses, and he thought that he would be able to change the place for another day in less than ten days. Whoever wanted to make a bad start, was burned by a fire before entering the boundary of Dayong, and he ordered people to rescue it for a long time , Only less than one-tenth of them were rescued, and a lot of people were injured. The original plan to attack the Golden Arrow Collection was not implemented. Next, the plan formulated by the National Teacher required him to attack Linhai Mansion, I thought it would be a success this time, right?The prefects and co-prefects of Linhai Prefecture are all corrupt officials, and their defense is not a good thing. When he approached the city, these people were all so frightened that they almost kowtowed to him for mercy.Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin, the dean of an academy named Zhai Qingquan, volunteered to go to the garrison camp and volunteered to take over the task of defending the city. Confucianism is quite familiar with dispatching troops, a city of old and weak soldiers, no horses, no money, only a few bows, crossbows, spears and halberds, which are still in dilapidated condition. He was able to defend for more than ten days and killed tens of thousands of brave and skilled fighters. The Tazi soldiers, Damu is so angry, if there is not a strict order from the national teacher not to allow the massacre of the city, he will definitely let Linhai Mansion blood flow into rivers.

You can't kill the whole city, you can always kill Zhai Qingquan, right?Unexpectedly, when the city was broken, this dead old man was rescued by several guards. Sam offered a high reward and ordered the soldiers to search the whole city, but they failed to find him.

It's a bad start, and he will lose troops and lose generals when he fights again at Golden Arrow Collection.Didn't you say there was someone in the city to take care of it?Didn't it mean that you can get the Golden Arrow Collection without any effort?Why did he fight for so long and so hard?
Now, except for the food and grass sent by Jinjianji yesterday, he can barely last for two days, and he has no more food and grass in his hands.The people sent to ask the Khan for help did not know when they would return.People can bear a hungry meal, but horses and livestock can't help it. They can't go to graze, right?
Sam was annoyed for a long time, and had to make up his mind: "Chenshi cooks, Chenzhong, prepare to attack the city!"

"Which one should be sent first?" The master who followed behind asked respectfully in a low voice.

That's right, in such a small city, he can't use it with all his troops!

"The left team goes first, the right team prepares, and they take turns. The people inside cannot be given a chance to breathe. Today, it must be destroyed!"

"Yes!" The three subordinates standing beside them saluted respectfully, then turned around and prepared to go down. Sam stopped the squadron leader Mita.

"You have come here to do business before, is it absolutely impossible for the North Gate to be captured?"

"It must be more difficult than the south gate. It is difficult for us to pass the [-] steps in front of it alone. Moreover, the front of the city gate is only more than a hundred feet wide. It is too difficult for us to rush up there."

"Which stupid pig told the national teacher that the Golden Arrow Collection and Linhai Mansion are easy to get? After this battle, when I return to Dadu, I will definitely find him and whip a hundred whips. It's too deceitful. The Golden Arrow Collection is not worth it at all. It’s as solid as gold, where is an empty city without any defenders?” Sam was so angry that he couldn’t hold back his words, and started cursing in front of his subordinates.There are only two days of food, and it will be fine if the city is captured, otherwise, he can only lead a group of hungry remnants and retreat back.

At the beginning of Sishi, when the people on the observation post saw the Tartars gathering in front of the city, they quickly raised the red flag as a warning. They fought fiercely in the middle of the night, and had a quick meal in the morning. That's how the fight started.

The city of Golden Arrow Collection is not big, and there are only two gates. Now only the south gate can be attacked. The cramped area makes it impossible for the Tartars to use it. Sam asked them to take turns to fight, which made the defenders of Golden Arrow Collection miserable. .

They were just ordinary people. They were forced to practice for two months by Fuyao, and they added 1 people brought by Guo Bin. Now there are five or six thousand casualties. At dawn, seeing the sky turn dark again, half of the people were injured and died, and the remaining people on the city wall could fall asleep standing up tired. Now, they are only facing the threat of death, and they are resisting desperately mechanically and instinctively. Use all your heart to stick behind the parapet.

The arrows have been shot, and the stones on the city wall are almost gone. The moat has been filled with stones and corpses, and now it is much higher.
If the fight continues like this, Golden Arrow Collection will be really dangerous.

Not only Fuyao, but even Guo Bin and Yinhu had worried expressions on their faces.
