The Happy Life of Small Officials in Northern Song Dynasty

Zhu Shiyong also heard the cry of killing, and immediately poured ice water all over his head to the bottom; Su Jin didn't lie, it seems that Ouyang Xiu really brought an army to take him, and now Su Jin can't take it, the army outside the city is overwhelming, and he has already Trapped in a quagmire, it is impossible to recover.full text..

A soldier rushed over, and before Zhu Shiyong could ask, he reported out of breath, "Master Zhifu, a large group of Imperial Guards came from outside the northern city, calling for us to open the city gate, saying that Ouyang Xiu, the imperial envoy, led us The army is going into the city on business."

Zhu Shiyong tried to calm down and shouted, "Why are you panicking? Are you sure it's the imperial army? How many people are there?"

Xiang Bing replied: "It's not fake at all. Judging from the equipment and banners, it must be the imperial army. There are thousands of people."

Zhu Shiyong made up his mind that there were only a thousand people, and he would not be able to attack for a while. He still had time, but there were only more than a hundred guards at the top of the city, so he needed reinforcements as soon as possible; If Su Jin and others go again, it will be too late.

Right now, we can only make a quick decision, and kill Su Jin and others regardless of the cost, so as not to be distracted from both sides.

"The order is passed on, the mobile patrol soldiers in the city, the government officials and the government officials, all go to the north city gate to guard the city, tell the imperial guards outside the city, and say that the old man will open the door to welcome them, please be safe and calm."

The Xiang soldiers led the order and rushed to deliver the order. Zhu Shiyong turned around, called Li Du and Ma Biao to the front, and said word by word: "You two, I don't have time to waste. I'll give you half an hour. Kill Su Jin and others at all costs, and if you can't take Su Jin, you two will come to see him."

Li Du and Ma Biao were helpless. The imperial army had arrived outside the North City Gate. This already showed that Su Jin’s previous remarks were all true. The two felt like they were on a pirate ship. Zhu Shiyong really took them on a different journey. The way back; but now there is no way to retreat, even if it is a dead end, we have to go to the end. I only hope that Zhu Shiyong has some amazing skills to turn the situation around.

Neither of them knew what Zhu Shiyong had in his cards, but the bet had already been made, and life and death could only be resigned to fate. Now they flinched, Zhu Shiyong couldn't spare them, and neither could Su Jin and the imperial guards outside the city.

The two looked at each other, gritted their teeth and clasped their fists together, and said, "Obey!"

After a reprimand, the pro-guards and box soldiers were reorganized, and there were 80 of the 63 guards left. The two hundred box soldiers brought by Wang Yaocheng and Li Du had the most casualties, but there were still more than 110 people in the two teams combined. Nearly two hundred, the number is still several times ahead.

Su Jin and others were immersed in the joy of the arrival of the reinforcements. They saw that the other party was lining up and thought they were going to reinforce the city, but unexpectedly Li Du and Ma Biao gave the order and suddenly launched the final attack.

Su Jin and the defected side soldiers were divided into two groups by the bed crossbow. Dynasty and Zhao Hu and more than 30 defected side soldiers were in the outer position, too close to each other. He was already entangled by the other party.

Su Jin secretly yelled that it was not good, and shouted loudly: "Quickly get back."

But where did it come from, once the fight is over, if you want to turn around and escape, it is tantamount to handing over your life to the opponent. In the blink of an eye, more than 30 people including Zhao Hu and Zhao Chao were surrounded by groups, and the two sides fought Wrestling together.

The disparity in strength is too great, and the opponent seems to have been beaten with chicken blood, one by one, regardless of life and death, rushing up one by one, cutting and dispersing more than 30 people in an instant, only to see blood splattering and screaming, and in the blink of an eye, more than 30 people fell down Mostly.

Wang Chao and Zhao Hu kept roaring, their knives danced like a wheel, and they managed to gather more than a dozen soldiers back together to form a small defensive formation back to back.

Seeing this, Ma Han and Zhang Long rushed to rescue them with their knives, but Su Jin grabbed them back and shouted: "Hold the formation, they are coming at us."

Sure enough, Ma Biao led more than 60 personal guards around the burning embers of the ruins, and rushed towards Su Jin and others from the northeast. Han Zhanglong goes to meet the enemy, and keep the formation in other directions."

Yan Biyun hurriedly called everyone to help Mrs. Wang to the courtyard wall. She and Xiao Sui'er and Rou Niang formed a semicircle with their delicate bodies to protect Mrs. Wang inside. Ma Han and Zhang Long had already rushed into the fierce In front of the soldiers of the pro-guards rushing forward, two steel knives flashed, and the two soldiers stepped in;

Although Zhao Hu of the dynasty over there formed a formation, within a short while, all the more than ten surrendered soldiers behind him were killed, and in the end only the two dynasty, Ma and Han, were left facing the vast number of soldiers back to back.

Su Jin said loudly: "Kill out, kill back."

Zhao Hu slashed down on an enemy soldier, then kicked another one into the air, and shouted: "Brother Dynasty, my lord told us to go back and kill."

Chao Chao yelled and kicked out a dead body on the ground, knocking down a large group of enemy soldiers, and said after panting, "Brother, killing back is naturally a good way, but brother, I have a more daring way, how dare you?" Don't you dare?"

Zhao Hu kept punching and kicking, and asked, "What method?"

Wang Chao said: "Our formation was broken up, and more than 30 people died. Even if we retreat, we will definitely not be able to stop it. The young master can hold on now. Let us attract more enemy soldiers. The young master and the old lady The more secure it is...”

Zhao Hu cut off the arm of an enemy soldier with a single knife, wiped the blood spattered on his face and said: "I don't know how to do it, I will listen to my brother, as long as I can protect the young master and the old lady, whatever happens .”

Wang Chao said: "Okay, then let's go out and kill. Did you see the old thief Zhu standing on the low house outside the courtyard? Let's run to him, the enemy soldiers must save him, that's it."

Zhao Hu laughed and said: "Good way, kill!"

Dynasty then roared: "Kill!"

The two suddenly started, one in front of the other and rushed out.

Li Du was in the rear preparing to order some troops to attack the women and children where Su Jin lived. Although he had discussed with Ma Biao that one would deal with the southern litter and the other with the northern litter, only two of the southern litters had been cleaned up. It's tough, and it doesn't make sense for hundreds of people to surround two people to kill, and it can't be used at all.

But all of a sudden, he saw these two hard-bodied soldiers heading towards the outside of the courtyard in a daze, chopping up more than a dozen soldiers one after another like cutting melons and vegetables, and they were in front of him in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Hu's eyes were full of anger when he saw Li Du who was gesticulating outside, he flew up, and slashed at Li Du's head with a knife. Du's calf softened, and he sat on the ground abruptly, unable to hold the steel knife in his hand, and dropped it.

Zhao Hu yelled: "Cao your ancestor, go to die." The steel knife slashed his head for the second time, and Li Du eagerly reached out and hugged the thigh of a soldier beside him and pulled it hard. Du's body happened to be Li Du's meat shield, which was cut in half by Zhao Hu with a knife, and the broken intestines were scattered all over the ground.

While Zhao Hu was stunned, Li Du hurriedly crawled out from under the corpse. In the blink of an eye, six or seven soldiers rushed up and handed out their knives and guns, blocking Zhao Hu's pursuit route.

Wang Chao smacked his lips and said, "It's a pity."

Zhao Hu said: "The thief bird doesn't care about the life and death of his subordinates, he really is nothing, let him live again, and come to deal with him later."

Chao Chao pointed at the entrance of the courtyard: "Go and kill the old thief first." The two of them acted up their might and chased after the entrance of the courtyard.

Su Jin saw the movements of Chao Dynasty and Zhao Hu and guessed their intentions. It is a way to capture the thief first, but it also depends on when, the number of opponents is too large, unless there are high-level and high-level opponents like in later movies. With the ability to fly across the sky with a human head, how can you succeed by just killing them from the ground?And the danger is too high. Although the two are highly skilled in martial arts, after all, the opponent is hundreds of soldiers with weapons in their hands. Regardless of how brave the two are now, they only need to be blocked for a while, and after exhausting too much energy, they can no longer fight. If you move half a step, your life may be lost.

Sure enough, Zhao Hu let out a muffled roar, and was shot in the waist. Fortunately, his skin was thick and his force was unloaded in time, so that the penetration was not deep. For a big blow, you will be more careful when you act. With the ebb and flow, it is easier for the opponent to block them.

Su Jin couldn't help, the guards spread out in a fan shape, and they had already fought with Su Jin and others, and the number of opponents was superior, but Su Jin's victory was due to the fact that he had several good players; Needless to say, Ma Han and Zhang Long, Su Jin led The two personal guards of Ouyang Xiu who came here were also very skilled. Although Yan Biyun's remaining four companions were scarred, they were brave at the critical moment of life and death, and they were basically balanced.

Su Jin suddenly understood how powerful Wang Chao and Zhao Hu were. They attracted most of the soldiers, otherwise they would not be able to stop them.

The combat strength of the personal guards is not bad. Of course, the private guards raised by Zhu Shiyong have been selected and assessed. These guys are all skilled in martial arts. The gap was broken.

Su Jin himself can only be regarded as a mediocre person. Fortunately, after experiencing so much, his hands and feet are no longer weak when he sees a knife being cut, but he still feels pressure when meeting someone with real martial arts. It seemed quite embarrassing to come over to help him, but now this situation can only be stalwart, without any opportunistic means.

The scene was chaotic, except for the sound of shouting and panting and the clash of swords, almost no one talked nonsense. It was a time of life and death, and everyone was engrossed.

Su Jin parried a steel knife with a knife. His hands and feet felt numb for a while. He forced himself to hold the weapon in his hand, and glanced anxiously at the city gate to the north. There was thick smoke billowing there, and the sound of shouting for killing could be heard faintly.

Su Jin suddenly scolded herself for being stupid. At this time, the other party was more anxious than her own, and her mind was also more fragile.

Su Jin took a deep breath, and suddenly shouted at the top of his voice: "The city is broken, the city is broken, brothers, kill, Ouyang Zhongcheng's army will arrive immediately, and the opportunity to be rewarded for meritorious service is here. Kill all the rebels and capture Lao Zhu alive!" thief."

The voice was broken, and it sounded like goosebumps all over the body. Everyone who was fighting was startled. They unconsciously glanced to the north, but they saw black smoke billowing from the north city gate. It is not known whether the city is broken, but this voice is calling out what they are worried about, with apprehension in their hearts and panic in their eyes.

"Zhu Shiyong is gone, you idiots are still working for him." Su Jin shouted again at the top of his voice.

All the soldiers turned their heads to look back again, and sure enough, Zhu Shiyong on the low building outside the courtyard had disappeared. Zhu Shiyong just saw Chao Chao and Zhao Hu heading straight to kill him, and didn't want to be obvious targets, so he got down from a high place and stood outside the courtyard to supervise the battle. , The soldiers didn't know this, they didn't see Zhu Shiyong at a glance, and their hearts were empty.

"The city is broken, Zhu Shiyong ran away, kill him!" Su Jin shouted at the top of his voice.

Xiao Sui'er is so smart, seeing the young master blinking at him, he put his hips on his hips and shouted, "The city is broken... Old thief Zhu has run away... There is a reward for catching old thief Zhu!"

Xiao Sui'er's delicate and clear voice was extremely penetrating, and it penetrated into the ears of everyone on the battlefield. The people on Su Jin's side were ecstatic, and everyone on the enemy's side was worried. Finally, a soldier couldn't help but cursed. : "Goofy himself has run away, why are we still working so hard?"

This sentence is exactly what the other soldiers want to say but dare not say. Once the window paper is pierced, the psychological defense line collapses instantly, and some people drop their weapons and turn around and run away; Personally, the sound of weapons throwing the ground was loud, and the soldiers fled outside the courtyard one after another.

Zhu Shiyong quickly appeared at the gate of the courtyard, and shouted loudly: "Don't listen to their rumors, our house is here, and anyone who runs away before the battle will be killed."

But since they had already started running, who would go back to pick up weapons and fight again? The soldiers just covered their heads and ran away, ignoring Zhu Shiyong's threats at all.

Zhu Shiyong slashed at two deserters with a knife, but failed to stop the collapsed deserter. He was rushed by more than a dozen soldiers and fell to the ground staggeringly, his head was bloody; He said: "My lord, I can't stop it anymore, let's go."

Zhu Shiyong got up and looked into the courtyard, and saw deserters rushing in like a tidal wave, so crowded that the courtyard gate almost collapsed, followed by Su Jin and his gang, shouting and raising their knives to chase them down, knowing that the situation was over. .

"Let's go, my lord." He dragged Zhu Shiyong and ran away.

"Official hat...my official hat..." Zhu Shiyong stretched out his hand and shouted hoarsely.

"Hey... my lord, what time is it, still picking that one up, the most important thing is to escape..." The attendant ignored him, dragged Zhu Shiyong into the carriage, and fled quickly with a whip, disappearing in an instant.
