little emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 126
The side grass, the side grass, the side grass is exhausted, and the soldiers are old.

The snow is clear in the south and north of the mountains, and the moon is bright for thousands of miles.

Mingyue, Mingyue, Hu Jia gave a cry of sorrow...

Today, heavy troops gathered in front of the Pinglu camp. Counting the previous two times, this is already the third siege launched by the Qijia Army.After each siege, there will be countless corpses under the city. It is true that the grass is exhausted, and the mountains and mountains are all white.

However, it might be more appropriate to replace the snow characters with blood characters.

Zhu Changluo and Xiao Ruxun were on the city, looking down at Xu Chao, who was galloping on horses from far and near, braving his might and coming.

Xu Chao has been very anxious recently. The news came from ahead that Chengen took down the Guangwu camp, and Xiaoyun took down the Yuquan camp. After so many days and still not being able to take it off, even if Xu Chao can think about it, he is still a little disheartened and anxious at the moment.

A few days ago, Xiaobai received an urgent report from Ningxia City, and learned that all the troops from the imperial court had arrived. He was so frightened that he didn't dare to stay longer, and drove back to Ningxia City overnight to sit in town.

At this moment, the faces of the people standing on the city wall preparing for the battle all had solemn expressions, because they all saw that it was not soldiers who acted as Xu Chaoma's vanguard this time, but a group of unarmed ordinary people. It was full of old and weak women, and some children with yellow and emaciated faces.

Zhu Changluo was slightly taken aback, Sun Chengzong's face changed, and Ye He clenched his fists.

Only Xiao Ruxun was as immovable as a mountain, neither in a hurry nor in a hurry, and one after another the orders of the army were poured down like a stream of water: the whole army was in order to prepare for the battle, the artillery on the top of the city was set up, and the rolling trees, thunder and stones were all ready, so as to respond to all changes without change.

Zhu Changluo was wearing leather clothes and hats, but the wind outside was very cold. Even though he was wearing heavy fur, a thin layer of ice formed around his body after a while, but the people in the city were all poorly dressed, but they were driven away by the fierce cavalry behind him. , bringing a howling sound to the city gate.

I have heard that when the Mongols attacked the city, they always drove the people to go first.This method can not only slaughter the people of the enemy country, but also shake the morale of the enemy soldiers. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone, cruel and vicious.But after all, it was heard, and when Zhu Changluo was there and witnessed it with his own eyes, this heartbreaking hatred was beyond words.

Xiao Ruxun has been guarding the city all year round, has seen a lot, and his heart has long been trained like a stone. With a wave of his hand, he ordered: "All soldiers obey the order, and the bows and crossbows are stringed. Anyone who is within three miles of the city will be killed without mercy." !"

Xu Chao's viciousness and cunning were clearly revealed at this moment. He led a group of cavalry galloping back and forth, holding spears and broadswords in his hand, driving the civilians straight up like shepherds, while he hid far away from the artillery range of the city, Looking at the city with a gloomy face, there was a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of naked provocation and bloodthirsty excitement.

The people who were expelled mourned and panicked, but in the eyes of these barbaric and ferocious soldiers, it became an incomparable joy.

Seeing the flow of people gradually approaching the city gate, Xiao Ruxun waved his hand without hesitation: "Shoot!"

The army's life was like a mountain, and the arrows were like rain, and some civilians were hit by the arrows and fell down one after another.

It is human nature to rejoice in life and fear death, when there is a confusion of people going forward, they turn around and flee when they turn back, Xu Chaoha smirked, raised a long knife in his hand, stabbed a person to death with one knife, and shouted fiercely: "Little prince, Xiao Ruxun, You can see clearly that these are the people of Ming Dynasty, since you are afraid of death and dare not leave the city, we will take care of it for you!" After saying that, he laughed loudly, raised his knife and fell down two people.

For a moment, screams, cries for help, cries, horseshoes, and sadistic laughter mixed together deafeningly. The bright red blood sprinkled on the pure white snow was dazzling and frightening.

All the people in the city were blue-faced, and their eyes were as sharp as a blade, staring at the bloody massacre below the city.

The soldiers of the Qi family laughed loudly, each with their spears and knives, wantonly massacred.

Xu Chao sneered and watched from behind without stopping. With a whistle, the soldiers were used to this kind of cat-and-mouse game. They would stab them to death with all their swords and guns, and only pick those places that are not critical. The people who were killed during the period could neither die nor live, and could do nothing but howl in pain.

The generals and soldiers in the city were so angry that their eyes almost bleed with hatred, and they asked for a fight one after another.

Xiao Ruxun's face turned ashen, and he insisted on not allowing it, but the hand holding the sword hilt had bruised veins, and he never relaxed.

In the chaotic crowd, a woman held a child in her hands, ran out quickly, ran to the gate of the city, kept beating the gate, and cried, "Masters, open the door quickly, I won't go in, just a crack... …Just let my kids in, please, please.”

While talking, he pawed at the door with his hands, only a few times, his ten fingers were rotten, and blood was running on the city gate, but he still refused to stop like crazy.

Zhu Changluo lost his voice: "Open the door and let her in."

Xiao Changxun said anxiously: "No! As soon as the city gate is opened, it will be tricked by the dog, and it cannot be opened!"

Sun Chengzong said in a low voice: "General Xiao Shen is right. If the Pinglu camp is lost, the Mongolian cavalry can drive straight in. If the Pinglu camp is lost, the old dog will not only have reinforcements, but also have a retreat. As long as this place can Hold on, the battle is half won."

A few words hit the nail on the head and hit the nail on the head, Xiao Ruxun gave Sun Chengzong an appreciative look.

Zhu Changluo regained his sanity immediately, and understood that there were priorities, and it was true that there was nothing wrong with it, but there was a soreness in his eyes, but two lines of tears flowed out uncontrollably.

If I had been a little more careful, more cautious, and taken down the scourge of worshiping earlier, wouldn't there be such a killing in front of me?
It's a pity that everything can't be repeated. It's too late to say anything about regret now.

Zhu Changluo's face was stern, and he was already secretly planning a plan.

Xu Chao had had enough fun. Seeing that the people in the city were just watching, but they were not moved at all, he couldn't help becoming fierce, drew his sword and pointed at the sky, and laughed wildly: "Brothers, since they don't care about these pigs and dogs, use horses and dogs Let's kill it!"

The family army responded with a thunderous sound, whistled, and the horses under their seats neighed, broke into the crowd, people stood up, their iron hooves were raised high, and when they fell, blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Fear stimulates the most primitive desire to survive in the human heart, but howling and begging for mercy are so vulnerable in front of iron hooves and long knives.The woman who fled under the city gate looked at all this in horror, holding the child in her arms tightly, shaking like chaff.

It's a pity that Xu Chao didn't intend to let her go. With a flick of his hand, a long rope was accurately wrapped around her neck, and the whole person flew up in the air like a kite. Xu Chao laughed and spun in the air like a windmill After a few laps, the woman's eyes and tongue bulged out, she was dead beyond belief, but her hands were still tightly holding the child in her arms.

Zhu Changluo saw this scene clearly from the top of the wall, his eyes were so wide that he was about to bleed, he suddenly shouted sharply: "Xu Chao, I, Zhu Changluo, swear to God, within three days, I will kill you a thousand times with my own hands!"

This sound became clearer and more exciting, no matter whether others could hear it or not, Xu Chao heard it anyway.

For some reason, I suddenly panicked, and the long rope in my hand fell to the ground.

Zhu Changluo's face was pale, but his eyes seemed to be burning. He turned and went down the city. Everyone followed him down the tower into the general's mansion in silence.

"Ye He, teacher, General Xiao, let's take a breath tonight!"

Xiao Ruxun was taken aback, and said anxiously: "Your Highness, think twice, there are so many people, and today's actions are also due to the deliberate aggressive method that has been unable to attack for a long time. The best strategy for the moment is to strictly guard against death. This is a cold day. The ground is freezing, they will naturally retreat if they cannot attack for a long time."

Zhu Changluo shook his head, "I understand what General Xiao said, but believe it or not, what happened today is just the beginning, what happened today, and what happened tomorrow will surely happen, and it is impossible for him to let him slaughter the people of Ming Dynasty every day for pleasure."

Xiao Ruxun was speechless, but he didn't think so in his heart. Now that Fort 47 in Ningxia has fallen, and only his own battalion survives among the three battalions, will this little prince be too emotional if he insists on using troops at this moment?

Seeing his silence and hesitation, Zhu Changluo knew what he was thinking, "General Xiao doesn't need to worry too much, the Pinglu camp takes defense as offense, and no mistakes are allowed."

Xiao Ruxun was taken aback for a moment, he really didn't understand what the little prince was planning.

But Zhu Changluo looked back to Sun Chengzong and asked, "Teacher, have the pigeons been released?"

Sun Chengzong nodded: "Don't worry, Your Highness, counting the days, it is estimated that Shaanxi, Gansu, and Shanxi have already dispatched troops by this time."

Suddenly thought of one thing, it was strange that Xu Chao was the only one who was making waves these few days but did not see Qi Bai, could it be that he had lost sight of one and returned to Ningxia City?When Zhu Changluo thought of this, his heart was as clear and refreshing as snow water, and he had a little more confidence in the plan in his heart.

After Zhu Changluo revealed the plan, several people present raised their heads in unison, with different expressions on their faces.

Ye He was excited, Sun Chengzong was thinking, and Xiao Ruxun was nakedly surprised, but the sparkling light in the eyes of the three of them was exactly the same, Xiao Ruxun bowed his waist sincerely, and gave a long salute: "The general wishes your highness every success!" !"

That night, a strong wind blew up thousands of miles away from the Pinglu camp, and the sky was overcast like black ink, with no stars or moon. Anyone with experience knew that this would be a sign of an impending snowstorm.

The lights in Xu Chao's big tent were brightly lit, even though the strong wind outside the tent roared, it did not hinder the beautiful spring in the tent.

Several naked women knelt at his feet, holding cups and plates in each hand, and delivered fine wine and delicacies to his mouth one by one.

Xu Chao's upper body was naked, thinking of the rapid massacre in the city today, he couldn't help but feel very happy, but when he thought of Zhu Changluo's words before going down the city, he clenched the hand holding the wine glass tightly, and suddenly threw it far away, eyes Glittering like a ferocious wolf.

Suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside the tent, "Master Xu, there is a military situation."

Xu Chao stood up vigilantly, and naturally felt upset when something good was interrupted, he shouted: "Get out, motherfucker, when will you not report it at this time, if it's not the military situation, be careful I will expose your skin!"

A man who looked like a lieutenant came in cautiously, Xu Chao stared naked and said, "Wang Huhu, what is the military situation?"

Wang Huo said with a smile on his face: "Master Xu, just now a young man came to report that he saw a group of people in the Pinglu camp open the city gate and head south."

"Really?" Xu Chao's face changed drastically, his eyes rolled a few times, he kicked the woman under him away, and then put on his clothes and stood up: "Do you know who came out?"

Wang Huo was dazzled by those white women's bodies, swallowed his saliva involuntarily, took a lot of effort to move his eyes away from those women, and said with a flattering smile: "It's windy and snowy, I really can't see clearly. But there seems to be a car in that line!"

car?Xu Chao's eyes lit up instantly!
A few strides came to the front of the tent, opened it to look at the sky, and could not help but sneer.

No need to ask, it must be that the little prince lost his temper and wanted to escape from the city on a snowy night.

It turns out that within three days on the city wall during the day, it was just a trick to swear to take him down?Xu Chao suddenly burst out laughing...

Noticing Xu Chao's strangeness, Wang Huo said flatteringly: "Master Xu, do you want me to bring a team to destroy them?"

Xu Chaomeng waved his hand and said with a sinister smile, "I don't need you, I'll do it myself!"

Zhu Changluo, who opened the curtain from the car and stuck out his head, had a smile on his lips that was as cold as ice, and his eyes were as clear as a deep pool.

Ye He rode his horse beside him, but he did not see Sun Chengzong.

Zhu Changluo asked coldly: "Are you all ready?"

Ye He nodded quietly, Zhu Changluo looked up at the blizzard, and suddenly said with a smile: "Come on, let the blizzard come more violently."
