Dajin royal family

Chapter 608 Jin-Xu Great War ([-])

As the setting sun fell, the blood-red light poured wantonly on the mottled and dilapidated city walls.The bloodstains spread long on the wall, and the wall was like a wounded beast, panting weakly at the moment of sunset.Looking around, the Suanzao City was filled with desolation and death, corpses, regardless of soldiers from Jin and Xu, bathed lifelessly in the orange-red light.

Some corpses kept their eyes open until they died, and still held their weapons firmly in their hands.

On top of the pile of corpses stands a naked Xu Jun flag, like a candle in the wind, it seems to be dissipated in the wind in the next moment.

If it has a soul, it should hum a desperate and sad song for itself at this moment.

On the vicissitudes and withered face, two lines of hot tears flowed down from the gullies silently.Her black hair fluttered in the icy wind, and her lifeless eyes seemed to see a hopeless future.

"General, retreat." The one-armed general looked at Zhao Yong and said in a low voice: "There are not many brothers left, we can't stop it."

The Northern Jin army was coercive, and their 5 people could not hold the Northern Jin army at all.Surrounding the wilderness, there are cavalry from the Northern Jin Dynasty. Their food roads have all been cut off, and Suanzao City has become an isolated city two days ago.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhao Yong asked hoarsely, "How many people are there?"

"There are less than three thousand soldiers ready to fight," said the general.

Three thousand?

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Zhao Yong's face, saying that Yu Chijing's side was just a lure, but no matter what, how could the 8 lures in his hand be able to stop the 5 lures.

At this moment, in front of Zhao Yong is the ferocious Northern Jin army.Looking back, there is no one, how can we continue?

Your Majesty, what are you thinking?
The wind is like a knife, blowing on the face and cutting in the heart.He guarded the isolated city, sitting and watching the soldiers under his command go forward and die in battle, but he couldn't give them a glimmer of hope.Even he doesn't know what's the point of sticking to it like this?
Is it just because of temple calculations that the goal of the Northern Jin Dynasty is to march from Tongguan?

However, who will come to see the soldiers stationed in Suanzao.

Who will think about them.

"General, retreat!" The general looked at the sadness on Zhao Yong's face, and couldn't bear it any longer, "Yu Wenzhiji won't come to support us! If he was going to come, he would have come long ago. We have held on for so long. Enough for him to reach Suanzao, but he didn't show up, which shows that he didn't intend to come here to rescue us at all!"

"General! Wake up!"

Yes, isn't the last ray of hope that sticks in my heart is the hope that Yu Wenzhi can lead troops to rescue him.

It's ridiculous to say that when he received the emperor's decree, he didn't want Yuwen Zhiji to come over, but at this moment, he hoped that Yuwen Zhiji could come over.

"After Suanzao is Guancheng, after that is Sishuiguan, and finally Luoyang!" Zhao Yong raised his voice in vain, "If we keep retreating, the Northern Jin Dynasty will invade Luoyang sooner or later!"

"But if we don't retreat, can we keep the jujube?" Pianjiang asked back.

So far, they have lived up to the court's expectations, even though they have exhausted all their soldiers, they can't keep Suanzao.

The result doesn't change at all.

Facing the general's questioning, Zhao Yong was rarely silent.

Yes, stick to it, can you hold on?
The answer is no, it is impossible to hold.The soldiers and horses of the Northern Jin Dynasty were strong, and the siege equipment was sharp, so they were hard to stop.

"As a general, dare to be the first." Zhao Yong murmured, and then said: "You go, go to Guancheng for help. If... If His Royal Highness Zheng Wang didn't come, then he must be in Guancheng."

"General!" The general wanted to persuade him, but Zhao Yong interrupted him by raising his hand.

Anyone can leave, but he can't, because he is the general of Suanzao City, he is the core, if he escapes, everything will be over.

Fifteen miles east of Suanzao City, there is a camp of the Northern Jin Army.

Yu Chijing received the news from Wei Zhongyu that Yu Wenzhi had been intercepted and fled to Guancheng.This means that Suanzao has completely become an isolated city, and there is no need to worry about their reinforcements.

Yuchi Jing was very moved. In the end, the king had the means to make Xu Guo give up Suanzao, or the eastern battlefield.

"General, now Suanzao is isolated and helpless, our army can take advantage of the night to attack. At that time, Suanzao Xu's soldiers were exhausted, and there were many casualties. Our army's morale was high, and we will definitely be able to take it in one battle. The last general is willing to be the vanguard and lead the army to take it down. Suanzao. If the battle is invincible, I hope the military law will deal with it!"

A full-fledged volunteer.

After his voice fell, the rest of the generals spoke up one after another to ask for a fight.

None of them are fools, no one wants the credit for breaking the city.Sour jujube is now clearly a meal on the plate, whoever eats it is not.

Yu Chijing chuckled, "Generals, please stay safe and don't be impatient."

Let me comfort you first, then followed Yuchi Jing and said: "The fight must be won, and all generals have a share, but I have a request."

"General, please speak."

In their view, General Yuchi's request must be to wipe out Xu's army and leave no one alive.This is also the usual method used by their Northern Jin army to deal with the enemy. Unless it is a situation like Hebei, the king personally orders, otherwise the brutality of the Northern Jin army will never let Xu Jun go easily.

Yuchi said respectfully: "There are three circles and one is missing, Zhao Yong must be spared."

Ok?
All the generals looked at Yu Chijing in puzzlement, and someone said: "General, Zhao Yong is our army's confidant, this man's ability to use troops is far better than the Yuwen brothers. If you don't take the opportunity to kill him, I'm afraid it will be against you." Our army's attack on Xu State has caused great obstacles."

In fact, Yu Chijing was also full of depression, this request was not his intention, but the king's intention.

"This is a strict order, and anyone has to obey it!" Yu Chijing warned with a serious face: "If anyone dares to commit suicide against Zhao Yong, I will definitely punish him severely!"

Hearing this, the generals immediately agreed.

"Yes!"

At night, the wind blows.

The soldiers stationed at the top of Suanzao city held their spears weakly and looked down at the city with numb eyes.For ordinary soldiers, they have already given up hope that Xu Guolai will rescue them.

Their moods at this moment are very complicated. They want to escape but dare not, want to stay but are afraid of death.

dilemma.

"What does the general say?" The two soldiers guarding the wall exchanged in low voices.

"The general doesn't want to leave, he would rather die in battle with Suanzao."

"Death in battle? You can't keep it even if you die in battle."

"Yes, the other generals all persuaded General Zhao to leave, but General Zhao was too stubborn."

"In my opinion, General Zhao is probably still waiting for the court's rescue."

"The imperial court? They don't care about our life or death."

At this moment, there was a whistling sound in the darkness, followed by an arrow hitting the soldier's cheek, and a scream woke up the peaceful city.

"Enemy attack!"

When this roar stopped, the drums of war thundered, and the sky was filled with fire and rain from afar.

When Zhao Yong heard the sound of war drums, he immediately understood that the Northern Jin army was about to attack the city.He hastily threw away the beard cake in his hand, got up and wanted to go to the top of the city, but he didn't want to be surrounded by a few generals.

"What do you want to do?" Zhao Yong's face was ugly.

"General, the three gates are besieged. We only have 3000 people, so we can't hold it."

"Bastard!" Zhao Yong yelled angrily: "You should repay the favor of the king when you eat the king's salary. How can you care about your own life and death at this critical moment and ignore the safety of the country? You wait and get out of the way!"

"General!" The one-armed general came out, looking at Zhao Yong with burning eyes, "We can die in battle, but we want to die to understand why King Zheng's reinforcements did not arrive, and why we were allowed to stand alone and helpless. Want to know this!"

"Yes, General." The rest of the generals spoke one after another.

Hearing this, Zhao Yong was speechless for a while, not knowing how to reply them.

After a while, Zhao Yong sighed softly: "Go, I will stay."

He didn't want to worry about why Yu Wenzhi didn't come to support him, because he was worried that if he didn't die in battle, he would be pissed off in the end.

The glory of a general is shrouded in horse leather.

It's not the tricks of a fly camp dog!
"General, I've offended you!" The one-armed general signaled to his companions.

Zhao Yong suddenly felt uneasy, "What do you want to do?!"

The generals didn't answer him, but forcibly controlled Zhao Yong, and led him on a horse towards the west gate.

"You guys are offending me, let me go!" Zhao Yong's voice was intermittent in the dark night, and finally disappeared.

There were not many people left in Suanzao City, and the morale was low. In addition, the main general and a group of generals were missing. Facing the siege of the Northern Jin Dynasty, they failed to defend the city for half an hour, and were directly attacked by the Northern Jin army!

As the flag of Xu Jun fell from the top of the city, the banner of the Northern Jin Army flew wantonly over the dark top of the city.

"General, I didn't find Zhao Yong and others. I heard from the soldiers in the city that Zhao Yong and others escaped from the west gate before the city was broken." A general was riding on a horse, looking at Yu Chijing in front of him.

The cavalry around them were lighting torches and striding across the Suanzao City.

The gates of every household in the city are closed tightly, for fear of being attacked by soldiers.

Yu Chijing pondered for a moment, then said: "Okay."

The flames are soaring into the sky, and the jujube tonight is not destined to be peaceful.
