Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 79 Going to the provincial capital

The rhythm of the refugee army's attack was disrupted, and Chuang Potian had no choice but to withdraw his troops. It took a lot of effort to pacify the soldiers, but he could no longer attack the city as before.

The governor took the opportunity to mobilize the servants of aristocratic families in the provincial capital and recruit young men from the provincial capital to go up the wall and stabilize the defense.

A quick break turned into a drawn-out tug-of-war.

Chuang Po Tian couldn't attack, and the governor couldn't fight out. The two sides were separated by a city wall and sacrificed countless lives every day. They were frozen there.

There was no other way. King Chuang had no choice but to order his army servants to dig trenches and lock the city wall tightly.

The two sides were just wasting it, and it took four months!

The front is tight, so Dongsai Mansion will naturally organize countless supplies, young men, and equipment to support them.

Even the three brothers Lu Ye and Pan Furong have gone back and forth countless times with their horse whistles to deliver supplies. There is a possibility that this battle will end badly.

Today is the day to deliver supplies to Chuang Po Tian.

Lu Ye stopped his work and left the room.

Wang Hu and Zhang Cunyi were already waiting outside.

"Brother, the whistle and frame are ready."

"Always ready to hit the road."

Lu Ye nodded.

"Okay, let's go!"

The three of them went out together and passed by the entrance of the garden, where Pan Furong was playing on the swing.

Women these days no longer wear iron armor and red scarves to wrap their heads.

Today, I saw that she had a double pendant on her hair, a yellow flower on her forehead, and a peach-pink skirt that swayed like a flower. Under the hem of the skirt, two embroidered shoes were dangling restlessly.

She has been living comfortably these past few months. Without Chuang Potian, she is the biggest in Dongsai Mansion, and she has no other worries about what she wants to do.

"Shepherd," she waved her hand, "be careful when you go out. Return quickly after delivering the supplies. Be smart and don't let anyone capture you and rush into the city."

Lu Ye responded with a nod and a smile, gave a salute, and left with the two brothers.

The three of them walked out of the door.

Wang Hu said suddenly.

"Brother, have you noticed that every time you escort grain and equipment out of the city, you always see the young lady."

"Besides, Miss doesn't wear armor anymore, she looks better..."

He scratched his head.

"Why can't we see the young lady when it's just me and the third child escorting us?"

Lu Ye slapped him hard.

"Because you have an ugly face and look so fierce. Do you want to scare the lady?"

Wang Hu muttered in dissatisfaction.

"Brother, you are no better looking than me..."

Snapped!

He received another slap on the forehead.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I will take you to fill trenches when we get to the provincial capital!"

Wang Hu held his head and ran forward.

"Brother, don't scare me. When we get to the provincial capital, maybe the king will knock down the city!"

-

hundreds of miles away.

The sound of killing shook the sky!

On the walls of the provincial capital, countless refugee soldiers climbed up.

However, the officers, soldiers and young men who defended the city were fighting fiercely among themselves. Facing the attack of the refugee army, they were defeated in a rush.

The shining silver banner with the word Jin was torn off and fell to the top of the city, covered in dust.

Chuang Potian, who was riding a big horse, his hands holding the reins were turning white and trembling slightly!

"We finally got in!"

Chuang Potian's eyes were moist.

God knows how he survived these few months!

I have nightmares almost every night. In the dream, the vague-faced person comes in and cuts him off with a knife. He also has to say harsh words. How dare a gangster speak nonsense about destiny?

Every time he woke up, he was sweating profusely and could no longer dream.

Looking back on the entire siege, it was really a nightmare experience.

Since he incarnated the destiny and led the army to attack the city, the situation has been great. Unfortunately, there are strangers to help the opponent, and there is a silver light falling on the banner with the word Jin.

Destiny versus destiny.

Not only did it break his offensive, it almost disrupted his military morale.

It was the military advisor who racked his brains and made up an explanation with Taoist Priest Qingyang.

It is said that the Kingdom of Jin is like a remnant dragon that has set in the west, while King Chuang is like an unstoppable dragon that is rising in the morning. Both sides have dragon energy.

When King Chuang attacked the Jin Dynasty, he replaced the old with the new and complied with the will of God.

That Great Jin Dragon Qi goes against the destiny and if you don't let go of the past, there will be great disaster in the future.

Therefore, victory will eventually belong to the refugee army and to King Chuang Potian. The destiny belongs to King Chuang. Don't panic, everyone, and assist the destiny well in order to be rewarded by the Duke in the future.

The military advisor also reported this to Chuangpo Tianzhen in private, and he could use this same rhetoric in the future if he met other Cao Tou Wang who had someone else to help him.

This is called the collapse of the dragon pillar, the dragon energy disperses, the dragons rise up everywhere, and they fight bloody battles in the wild, driving out the real dragon.

Chuang Potian was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly ordered his military advisers to spread this rhetoric throughout the army, so that the confused people could be calmed down.

However, everyone's attack intensity was still much worse than on the first day, so the war could only be delayed.

period.

Chuang Potian also asked Taoist Priest Qingyang for help, asking if he had any powerful spells that could destroy the city?

Like a meteorite falling from the sky and smashing the city wall?

Or with a wave of his hand, the plague spreads and the soldiers guarding the city are brought down?

Or is it possible to use a curse to kill the governor and the commander-in-chief who are guarding the city?

Taoist priest Qingyang hesitated and said that those who practice Taoism are not allowed to kill innocent people indiscriminately. These spells are harmful to heaven and cannot be used.

Chuang Potian's hope turned into disappointment. He thought to himself that he wanted to help Longting but didn't want to contribute. He just took advantage of his luck to cultivate the Taoist fruit. This Taoist priest was too greedy!

Or, this Taoist priest may not be as powerful as he boasts.

Sure enough, you have to rely on yourself to conquer the world!

I am afraid that Taoist Priest Qingyang only has some miraculous abilities, but they are limited and cannot change the situation of the battle with his personal power.

Taoist Priest Qingyang didn't seem happy to see Chuang Potian, so he hurriedly cooperated with the other party to perform the destiny descent several times in public. Unfortunately, every time a golden light flashed here, a silver light came from the top of the opposite city.

The golden King Chuang and the silver flag on the wall contrasted with each other, making it awkward.

It's like the sun and moon rise together on the battlefield, which dilutes the atmosphere of bloody fighting, which is quite strange.

On both sides of the city wall, the refugee army and officers and soldiers shouted several rounds of "Destiny is mine" as usual, and their attack and defense were still the same as before, so Chuang Potian didn't even bother to engage in Destiny Possession anymore.

Fortunately, he finally felt that Taoist Master Qingyang was still useful, although he was not as reliant as before, and it did not prevent him from bringing a few Taoist boys to hold banners and perform rituals after the war.

But today, this provincial capital was finally destroyed.

It’s not destiny, but lack of food!

The food in the city ran out two months ago. The governor and the general soldiers tried their best to search the whole city and ensure supplies, but the generals and soldiers had no strength to fight without food.

On the other hand, Chuang Po Tian sent several troops to attack the nearby Fucheng, which was empty of defenses, and supplies of food and grass continued to come up.

Therefore, a few days ago, some wealthy families in the city sent their loyal servant masters out of the city at night, negotiated good terms with Chuang Potian, and today they rebelled against the city and cooperated with the refugee army to attack the city. Sure enough, they came down in one fell swoop!

Chuang Potian took a long breath, his forehead was covered with sweat!

This time, my destiny is finally stable!

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, Your Majesty... With destiny in hand, the Broken Dragon Qi of Great Jin is indeed no match!"

There was a flood of flattery from the military advisors and generals around him.

Among them, She Taotian had a flattering smile on his face and had the loudest voice.

After four months of siege, he still led dozens of remaining soldiers.

Seeing that the other anti-king tyrants were at worst a commander, and those who were good at it all became generals of an army, especially Mang Kingang and Cao Niangzi, who came out of Heishan County together that day, were both generals.

He was so jealous that his eyes were red, and he really hoped that Chuang Potian would give him another chance.

If it was a joke that he had hoped that the second army would be defeated in disgrace in the provincial capital before, now that the second army had defeated the provincial capital, there was no hope for his small thoughts. I just hope that I can flatter this king and be reused.

Chuang Potian looked at Shetaotian, winked, and waved around.

The surrounding trusted generals and horse soldiers immediately dispersed, while She Taotian hurried over.

"Your Majesty." He bowed and stood.

Chuang Potian stared at him with a half-smile, until She Tuantian was sweating all over, and then asked slowly.

"She Tuantian, you are the best archer in the army..."

She Taotian said hurriedly.

"The art of archery is nothing more than a small skill, and it cannot compare to the king's ability to strategize and command thousands of troops. He has destiny..."

Chuang Potian waved his hand impatiently.

"Okay, Lao She, I'm not here to listen to your flattery. You have been an idler for several months. Now that the provincial capital has been destroyed, our refugee army needs to expand again."

"I intend to make you a general in an army, can you still draw a bow?"

She Taotian was overjoyed when he heard this, tears streaming down his face, and he patted his chest to assure himself.

"My lord, I can shoot! I can shoot! My little brother, I practice martial arts every day and don't dare to let up."

Chuang Potian felt relieved when he saw She Tuotian's careful look.

This is intoxicating power. No matter how unruly you are, you have to bow your head.

He snorted coldly.

"Then do one thing."

"Today Dongsai Mansion left the city to deliver supplies here as usual, and they are still halfway there now."

"The three brothers, Commander Lu, should be the ones protecting the food supply."

"Commander Lu is the husband-in-law of the young lady," Chuang Potian stared at She Tuotian and said word by word, "Nowadays, the province is in turmoil. Bandits often rob the roads, collude with the remaining officers and soldiers, and ambush and attack our soldiers."

"I'm afraid they are not safe, so just go and escort them."

She Tuantian's heart trembled.

Aren't you the biggest gangster in the province now?

The refugee army and officers and soldiers were fighting under the provincial capital. The main force was here. How could there be any remnants of robbers, officers and soldiers on the various official roads?

To put it bluntly, Chuang Potian said, this is not an escort, this is to let him destroy Lu Ye!

This guy is very insidious, he talks nice, but he lets himself figure out what he means and takes action, leaving no trace behind what he says!

She Taotian bowed his head without hesitation.

"Don't worry, big brother," he changed his words, "little brother will definitely handle things properly."

"Send Lu's niece-in-law to where he belongs."

He had been the failed marriage seeker before, but later he understood the meaning of the look that Chuang Potian gave him that day, which was to make him lose his face and fight for the title.

If he had seized the opportunity to kill Lu Ye that time, not only would he have brought home the beauty, but he would have become a general in the army by now.

As for whether it would be embarrassing for the old cow to eat young grass, he shot the sky and only had half a whistle under his command, so would he be embarrassed?

Madam Cao's slutty fox got under Chuang Potian's bed, who dares to laugh at her now?

So he didn't hesitate to shoot Tuotian. Anyway, that kid had blocked him many times and he had long been dissatisfied with him. Killing him would give him a chance to be reused by Chuangpotian, which was a good deal!

He raised his hands to Chuang Po Tian and immediately got on his horse. He didn't even take the dozens of horsemen under his command with him. One man rode away and roared away, facing away from the army.

Military advisor Bai Yushan rushed over.

"Your Majesty, it's time to enter the city..."

Chuang Potian laughed loudly and raised his head with boundless pride.

"Okay, enter the city! Enter the city!"

----

The night falls, the stars are dark and the moon is hidden.

Private rooms on several hills.

The carriages of the grain escort team coming out of Dongsai Mansion formed a circle. Many people were lying on the carriages, and some were even lying on the ground. There were already loud noises. The horses and mules were being driven aside, and several sentries were keeping watch outside. Hit tons.

There were several torches burning feebly in the camp, emitting a dull light.

After a hard day's journey, everyone set up a simple camp beside the official road to rest.

From Dongsai Mansion to the provincial capital, the forces of Chuang Po Tian are now located, and they have always been safe. Therefore, the sentry at night dozed off peacefully, and the defense was lax.

There are several small cowhide tents in the middle of the frame circle, which should be where the leaders are.

Deep in the night.

Suddenly there was a sharp whistling sound.

woo woo woo...

The three long arrows were so fast that they almost flashed by in the night!

These cowhide tents were immediately shot to pieces!

Broken cowhide was flying around the camp like butterflies.

Human screams came from inside the cowhide tent, and large amounts of blood flowed out from inside.

The whole camp was alarmed, people scrambled to their feet, horses and mules neighed, and there was chaos.

"Under attack!"

"Get up quickly!"

"Someone is shooting an arrow!"

The cavalry soldiers were a little better, they were used to fighting. Many of them wore cotton armor that fit them well and went to sleep. At this time, they got up, grabbed their swords and guns, and went to the police.

But many servants blew up the camp.

Many people were crying and running around in the camp. Torches were knocked down, horses and mules were disturbed, and carriage frames were overturned. It was a chaotic scene.

A leader of the cavalry stood up, brandishing a spear while riding on his horse, and kept knocking down the running servants.

He shouted loudly.

"Damn it, don't run, don't run!"

"The horsemen form a team and put out all the torches. There are not many people on the other side, so don't panic..."

He was making arrangements to straighten out the chaotic camp.

hum...

Another loud sound broke through the air.

A long arrow whizzed over, piercing the leader and his horse. There were still remains of the horse's body, but the leader's whole body was shot open, and there was a rain of blood in the camp.

Everyone was stunned at first, and then screamed loudly.

The arrow from the sharp archer hidden in the darkness was too terrifying. It shot the person to pieces. The person who was hit was dead, and not even the whole body was left behind.

Suddenly, the camp, which was already on the verge of collapse, became even more chaotic.

Not only were the servants running around, but some of the cavalry were unable to withstand the pressure and were about to collapse.

A few more arrows.

Maybe they would blow up the camp completely.

Several people suddenly stood up on the hill beside the camp. It was Lu Ye, Wang Hu, and Zhang Cunyi.

Among them, Zhang Cunyi bent his bow like a full moon and shot three arrows into the darkness instantly, while Lu Ye and Wang Hu each grabbed a shield to protect him.

These three arrows passed through the camp from the air, but were shot directly into the darkness of the mountain opposite.

Someone there was surprised and saw a masked man in black flashing out from beside the boulder. He was in the air, and he also bent his bow and shot three arrows.

moment.

The six arrows flying towards each other made whistling sounds in the air and collided together.

The iron arrows collided, instantly making the sharp sound of grinding teeth.

boom! boom! boom!

There were three explosions, and bright sparks instantly lit up above the chaotic camp!
