Scumbag Training Manual

Chapter 138 Salvation
The situation in Yunzhou City is getting more and more serious. Wherever there are trees in the city, even the bark and grass roots are dug up and eaten.Those who still have a little surplus food at home dare not show a little bit.It would be really fatal for a hungry and crazy person to grab the rice grain.

All the rice and grain shops in the city were closed, and even if there were surplus grain, they would not sell it to anyone.

In order to avoid people seeing the smoke from lighting the stove, Mrs. Lu came up with a way to grind the rice into flour, set up a small stove in the yard, boiled water, and cooked the rice paste to eat.

Although the taste is unsatisfactory, anyway, it is impossible to buy vegetables and meat to eat now, so I barely use this to support my hunger.

All the soldiers and civilians in the city are waiting for the reinforcements from the imperial court, and Zhang Jian and Cao Dacheng also climb high and look far away every day.

They almost pinned all their hopes on Pei Jing's team, but there was no reinforcements except for the densely packed barracks of the Mo Army as they climbed up every day.

Cao Dacheng was almost desperate after watching for a few days, only Zhang Jian still went up to the tower twice a day and never gave up.

Now the people in the city are struggling to survive, and there is not much food left in the army.

The people were so hungry that they secretly collected money to bribe the guards guarding the city gates and wanted to escape from the city. Although there were a large number of Mo soldiers stationed outside the west gate, the guards at the other gates were much looser.

Many people rushed out of the city in groups in the dead of night, but those in the city who were too timid did not dare to go out, only heard the miserable cries from outside the city, and the harsh sound of a knife being slashed on flesh and blood. .No one would dare to do that again.

Three days after most of the people in the city had run out of food, even Pei’s family had only the last half bag of millet left, and the army only had rice grains that could last less than a day, when Zhang Jian heard the soldiers report that the Mo people were ready to move, as if There are signs of a siege.

Zhang Jian and Cao Dacheng climbed up the city wall quickly, and they saw the camp of the Mo country army, and they started to bury pots and cook food, while the army on the opposite side seemed to be preparing to assemble.

Zhang Jian clenched his fists tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Come here, send an order to gather all the rice grains and give them to the whole army. When they are full, they will fight fiercely with the barbarians of the desert country on the opposite side." One game! Never die!"

The soldier was full of excitement and said loudly: "Yes!"

Instead of sitting quietly and starving to death in the city, it is better to fight the enemy army hard, even if you die, you will have to pull a few more backs.

The speed of the cooking class was very fast, and the meals were ready in a short time.

The soldiers brought over two bowls of rice, with a lot of millet and sorghum mixed in, plus a small plate of vegetables and a small plate of meat dishes, which was extremely rare at this time.

Zhang Jian was not polite either, he just waved and said, "Go get a pot of wine!"

The soldiers brought up a jug of wine, and Zhang Jian smiled and said to Cao Dacheng: "Brother Cao, please sit down. You and I are destined to work together in Yunzhou City for many years. I am afraid that today is the day when I will fight to the death with the people of Moguo. The last meal for you and me. Come, you and I drink this cup together, and we will be brothers Paozhe again in the next life!"

At this moment Cao Dacheng, a civil servant, also had infinite pride and ambition in his heart, and said with a sigh: "Okay! Cheers, Brother Zhang, you also leave me a knife for a while. I would rather die than be a prisoner of the Mo people."

The two looked at each other and laughed, drank a glass of wine together, dropped the glass at the same time, and ate all the food.

Zhang Jian let out a long laugh, stood up, drew out his saber and shouted loudly: "Go, get ready to meet the enemy!"

The war drums rumbled, and the heavy city gates were slowly opened. Zhang Jian rode a tall war horse and took the lead out of the city with a sword in his hand.

The Mo people spent too long outside Yunzhou City, and it seems that they have lost their patience. Today is their final battle to decide the outcome.

When the Rui country wins, the people of Mo country leave; when the Mo country wins, the city of Yunzhou is destroyed, and the people of Mo country are devastated.

The trombone sounded, and Zhang Jian rushed up first.

The two sides immediately fought together.

And inside the city, the members of the Pei family who were not far from the gate of the west city, even though they were hiding in the cellar, seemed to be able to hear the shouts of killing coming from outside the city.

Chen Miao said worriedly: "It's fighting again, this time the shouts of killing are especially loud."

Pei Songde frowned, and said in a deep voice: "The city has been out of food for a long time, and the food and grass in the barracks are almost gone. Today's battle is probably a desperate battle. It will be the last battle."

Except for Mrs. Wang, who leaned against the wall and panted slightly because of the poor food recently, almost everyone was worried about this battle.

Everyone knows that it is really too difficult to win.

And the city is broken, waiting for their end, I'm afraid no one can imagine.

For a moment everyone fell silent, Chen Miao clasped her hands together and silently prayed that Pei Jing was safe and well.

Mrs. Lu sighed silently, and imitated Chen Miao, praying together with palms together.

For his son, for the Pei family, and for the entire Yunzhou City.

The war was in full swing, and there were countless casualties.

Zhang Jian's right arm, thigh, and chest were all injured to varying degrees. He gritted his teeth tightly, relying on the hostility that he had suffered on the battlefield for many years, he insisted on enduring it.

The sword in his hand drank the enemy's blood, he thought to himself, even if he died at this time, it was worth it.

The enemy army on the opposite side was fierce and could not be killed endlessly. Zhang Jian narrowly escaped several times, and the pain from several wounds made him numb. Soldier, Zhang Jian sighed secretly, it seemed that the situation was over.

All of a sudden, the troops from the desert country on the opposite side showed a tendency to be scattered from the back of the team. It was not too obvious at first, but this change could be clearly noticed in a short while.

Zhang Jian was slightly taken aback, but before he could react, he heard the soldiers behind him shout happily: "It's the reinforcements! The reinforcements are here!"

Zhang Jian looked into the distance in a daze, and as expected, the army of the Mo Kingdom showed signs of retreating rapidly from the back to the front in a large area.

After a while, he saw a large number of Rui country's troops in blue armor rushing towards him. Just based on visual inspection, this group of troops might not be less than 20 people.

The army of the Mo country was defeated and retreated steadily. Zhang Jian felt his legs were weak at this moment, and couldn't help but staggered. Fortunately, he was supported by the soldiers next to him to barely stand still.

Cao Dacheng stumbled and rushed down from the tower, clutching Zhang Jian's sleeve, almost crying: "Brother Zhang, we are saved! Yunzhou City is saved!"

Zhang Jian was speechless, but nodded heavily.

A horse galloped from a distance, came to Zhang Jian, pulled the reins abruptly, slammed off the horse, bowed and said: "The two adults are frightened, Pei Jing is coming back late."

Zhang Jian grabbed his shoulders, and his voice almost choked up, "It's not too late, it's not too late, just come back! Pei Jing, you saved Yunzhou City and the people in the city!"
