One person, one sword, I have guarded the lonely city for 70 years

Chapter 329 Will Master Forgive Me?

Jing Jun could also find this out. Seeing the soldiers guarding the city in Beiting getting more and more depressed, the generals smiled knowingly.

"General Meng used his troops cleverly, he subdued his soldiers without fighting, and he had the demeanor of a great commander back then!" Some officers flattered.

"That's right, Jingguo Shuangbi Meng and Bai, Bai Yingqi has retreated and studied Taoism these years, only General Meng has been commanding the battle on the front line, killing and wounding countless Tang troops. It is estimated that the position of generalissimo will be handed over to General Meng in the future."

It's a pity that this flattery was patted on the horse's leg, and the smile on Meng Su's face gradually faded.

As soon as he mentioned his uncle, the Marshal of Jing Guo Meng Huo, Meng Su couldn't help but think of that Anxi Rentu.

How high-spirited Marshal Meng Huo was back then, occupying Anxi, Weishuofang, and entering Hexi, the momentum was like a broken bamboo, and he almost penetrated the northwest and went all the way to Chang'an.

But Song Yun suddenly appeared from Anxi, and took over the Jingjun executives in the rear.

Being captured was almost a shame to Jingguo, and finally he died in Anxi aggrieved, and the Meng family couldn't hold their heads up because of this.

Meng Su had always wanted to take revenge, but it was a pity that Anxi Rentu had died a long time ago, and there was no body left under the thunder.

Six years ago in Anxi, when Bai Yingqi saw the blood-streaked golden needle disappear inexplicably, she thought it was Song Yun who had returned, and was so frightened that she lost all fighting spirit, and ran back to the country for retreat.

Meng Su was not afraid and continued to command the battle.

Facts have proved that there is no Song Yun at all, and the northwest front is still only supported by Gao Hanqing.

Without Song Yun, Dajing Qiangjun will have nothing to fear!

Meng Su looked at Anxi with a straight face, and the officers around him didn't dare to speak for a moment.

"If you can't kill your master, then kill you, which is also considered revenge."

Looking at the one-armed general at the head of the city, Meng Su's eyes were deep, and he slowly ordered:

"The Beiting army is shaken, and we can start persuading them to surrender."

"Send a letter of persuasion to the city. Anyone who surrenders will automatically obtain the status of a citizen of Jingguo. They can live in Jingguo with peace of mind and don't have to participate in the war anymore."

"Those who destroy the city gate will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver and a hundred acres of land."

"Whoever assassinates a high-ranking military officer in Beiting will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, a thousand acres of land, and a knighthood."

"Assassinate Gao Hanqing, reward ten thousand taels of silver, ten thousand mu of land, earl, which can be passed on for three generations!"

Hearing such a generous reward, the officers around were all moved.

Jing Guo often confers titles for military exploits, and there are many rewards, but the titles can only be enjoyed by himself, and cannot be passed on to future generations.

Being able to pass it on for three generations is already an incredible treat.

"Although Gao Hanqing is far inferior to Song Yun, but he has a tough style and dares to fight. He is faintly the soul of the Tang Army's northwest defense line."

Meng Su said in a deep voice, "As long as you kill him, the Beiting army will collapse without fighting!"

"My king has an order that anyone who kills or captures Gao Hanqing alive will be promoted to rank, and the rank can be passed down to three generations!"

With the heavy reward in front, the officers cheered up, shouted, and went away from their busy work.

Soon, arrows flew high from the top of the arrow tower and shot into the city sparsely.

The soldiers in the city picked up the arrows and found that letters persuading them to surrender were wrapped around them.

"I automatically become a citizen of Jingguo, so I don't have to participate in the war anymore?"

"A reward of one hundred taels of silver, one hundred acres of land... Tsk tsk, enough to live a comfortable life for decades."

The soldiers immediately handed in letters of persuasion, but there were also a few people who whispered.

Seeing this, several officers hurried to find Gao Hanqing, "General, morale is low now, and the enemy has started to persuade them to surrender again. The influence is very bad, what should we do?"

Gao Hanqing sat in the military tent, staring at the map, and said:
"I collected all the arrows and shot them for a year, and the arrows were all shot, so I just need to replenish them."

"General, I'm talking about persuading you to surrender..." several officers said anxiously.

Gao Hanqing waved his hand wearily, "I see, you take the arrows first."

"...Yes." Several officers looked at each other helplessly and left one after another.

Soon there was only Gao Hanqing left in the camp, staring at the map, sighing faintly:
"Master, Anxi is really difficult to guard."

After fighting for so many years, the Tang State has always maintained a defensive position. Although the Beiting Army has grown up, its willpower has gradually been exhausted in the endless flames of war.

Fighting against Jingguo with an army, there is no hope of victory, so they can only support it.

Defending Anxi to the core, although it can save the Tang country from the flames of war, allows cavalry and scouts to freely enter and leave the desert, and has a greater strategic space.

But the pressure of defending the isolated city was too great. This time, after two years of persistence, the soldiers were exhausted and there were not many supplies left.

Gao Hanqing had a premonition that the Beiting army would collapse sooner or later if it continued like this.

"Do you want to give up Anxi?"

"I don't know if Master's spirit in heaven will forgive me..."

Whether to abandon the city and break through is what Gao Hanqing has been struggling with in recent days.

By the river of time, Song Yun couldn't help curling his lips when he saw this.

"A man can bend and stretch, defend if he can beat him, and retreat if he can't beat him. Why do you still bring me up to speak?"

"Stubborn!"

He shook his head slightly, this apprentice is an excellent warrior, but not an excellent commander, sooner or later he will suffer.

However, Song Yun is not a babysitter, and he doesn't know how to help with things. At most, he waits for the apprentice to rescue him when he is in danger.

Continue to meditate and take medicine, practice "Qi Hai Xue Tian Gong" to enhance the original vitality.

Every step forward in this technique, the combat power and cultivation base will be improved by one point, and the effect is very obvious.

So Song Yun is not in a hurry to go through the next time travel, he will practice for a while and save a few million cultivation points.

Then go through time travel and break through the middle stage of immortality by killing enemies.

At the same time, he also has two purposes, and occasionally pays attention to the dynamics of Tang in the long river of time.

A few days later, at night, the quiet city of Anxi.

The top of the city was lit with fire, and hundreds of soldiers patrolled back and forth holding torches.

Jing Jun had never attacked the city at night, but he would shoot arrows to harass him from time to time, so he didn't have too many people near the city wall, as long as he could patrol.

Tonight, after two hours of silence, the night is getting darker.

A few muffled hums suddenly sounded around the city gate.

The soldiers guarding the city gate only felt the breeze rising and falling behind them, and then fell limply as soon as their throats were cold.

Although the vast majority of the Beiting army is still loyal to Datang, there are always a few who are not determined and decide to take risks.

They didn't dare to assassinate Gao Hanqing, and they didn't have that ability, but it was more than enough to destroy the city gate.

Soon, with a creak, Anxi's north gate slowly opened.

"What's the movement?" The patrolling soldiers at the top of the city were immediately alarmed, and they held up torches to shine on them.

Then I saw someone holding up a long knife and slashing down with all his strength, cutting off the door bolt abruptly with more than a dozen consecutive knives, and then went to chop off the hinge.

"Stop him!"

"There are traitors! There are traitors!"

A group of patrolling soldiers yelled loudly, which instantly alarmed the whole city.

At this moment, someone has already sneaked out of the city gate by taking advantage of the darkness.

The response of the Beiting army was extremely fast, and groups of soldiers gathered quickly.

Seeing that time was running out, the traitor who chopped the door could only abandon the solid metal hinges and ran out of the door quickly.

"Watch me shoot these traitors!"

A famous battalion jumped up to the top of the city angrily, drew his bow and set his arrows, and shot two people to death with the arrows that Jing Guoren just shot in today.

But the fast ones are already several miles away.

The Jingguo barracks in the distance quickly became restless.

Meng Su guessed that there would be changes in Beiting sooner or later, so he asked several groups of masters to stand by day and night, guarding the gates of the four cities, and if there was any movement in Anxi, they would immediately dispatch to attack.

At this moment, a group of Jing Guo elites had already rushed towards the north gate.

"Okay." Gao Hanqing hurried over and frowned upon seeing this, "Can the city gate still be closed?"

"The latch is completely cut off and can't be connected!"
