MTL - Long Wind Crossing-Chapter 78

Everyone was stunned when this loud shout came out.

Mu Nan's mind was full of "It's over, it's over, it's over", while Liu Yuru stood on the tower, clenched her sleeves, and said tremblingly: "He... what is he doing!".

Under the tower, after this shout, King Liang's army hesitated. The army stopped far away under the command of the snare drum, and stood against Gu Jiusi. After a while, the soldiers let Kai, a man rode forward alone. He looked in his early forties, dressed in battle armor, and had an extraordinary aura. He stood in the crowd and looked at Gu Jiusi from a distance, and said loudly, "Who is blocking the road ahead?"

"Wangdu county magistrate, Gu Jiusi!"

Gu Jiusi also came out on the horse and replied loudly.

The other party looked up and down with Gu Jiusi for a moment, then King Liang nodded: "I remember it."

Speaking, King Liang raised his eyes, glanced at the people behind Gu Jiusi, and sneered: "You brought so many people to fight me? You can see clearly, I There are 100,000 troops behind you, and it is like walking on the ground. I suggest you not to fight, surrender early, and I can spare you a life."

"The messenger and thief," Gu Jiusi said with a 'bah', and said contemptuously, "You dare to say that you will spare me a life? Look at your own pigs and dogs, and be beaten by Master Fan. I dare not fight head-on, so I think of this filthy way to find a way to live for myself, and also say to spare us a way to live? Can you wake up a little bit, it is the sand in the five hundred miles of road that blinds your eyes, The water from the moat in the Eastern Capital has flooded your brains? A group of rebel thieves told the court officials that they would give their lives?!"

"You!" King Liang took a step forward in anger, and a man in blue next to him quickly stopped him and whispered, "Don't be angry, my lord, this child is provoking you."

King Liang paused when he heard this, Gu Jiusi saw him stop, as if he thought he was not angry enough, and quickly said: "Why don't you speak? It’s not easy to escape all the way from Dongdu, right? Are you hungry? We Wangducheng have always been tolerant and treated the refugees well, and you are still individuals when you put down your weapons. Get back to the righteous as soon as possible, don’t always think about being a beast with a beast!”

These words made the people behind King Liang agitated. They scolded King Liang before, but now they start scolding them all!

Some grumpy soldiers couldn't help shouting angrily, and began to scold Gu Jiusi: "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"Little white face is talking nonsense, but you pig head face is not talking nonsense?"

Gu Jiusi's ears were sharp, and after hearing it, he scolded him directly. Whoever scolded him scolded the other, and at one time one person scolded many people, and the two armies buzzed into one.

The opposite side scolded badly. Gu Jiusi didn’t have any dirty words in his mouth, but he scolded more badly than the opposite side. Ye Shian didn’t hesitate when they were scolding each other. Okay, the rest of the men, horses, weapons, and forage.

There are now a total of 10,000 soldiers in the city. A batch of weapons has just been built and it was originally going to be transported to the battlefield, but now there is no time, and they are all left in the city. Therefore, although the soldiers are small, the weapons are sufficient.

Ye Shi'an asked people to split up immediately to take out these weapons and distribute them, and then people went from house to house to take out all the oil, firewood and other things, and then according to a north and south two thousand each Five people, 1,000 people at the west gate, and 4,000 people at the east gate arranged for the entire city to be fortified.

When Ye Shian was busy, Gu Jiusi and King Liang's army were arguing, and King Liang's army was still following one after another. The man in green beside King Liang observed Gu Jiusi, Tongliang Wang said: "My lord, this person was here early in the morning. Obviously, he had already heard the news of our coming, but he only brought so many people, and he took the initiative to provoke him.

When King Liang heard this, he was silent for a moment, he felt a little uneasy, looked up at Gu Jiusi who was arguing with others, and said in a low voice: "But we have now arrived in Wangdu, no matter what. , this city must be attacked!"

The man in the blue shirt hesitated, and after a while, he whispered, "You can give it a try."

When King Liang heard the words of the man in the blue shirt, his eyes sank, he turned his head, raised his hand, and waved at the man who carried the flag.

Seeing King Liang's actions, Gu Jiusi knew that King Liang was about to attack. He pulled into his heartstrings, turned his head and quickly said to Mu Nan, "Wait a while if I say retreat, then retreat immediately!"

Mu Nan was stunned, and then saw the flag bearers in King Liang's army suddenly start waving the flag, and then King Liang's army rushed up with a dense roar. Gu Jiusi gritted his teeth and rushed forward on his horse! Liu Yuru watched from the tower, her whole heart was broken, so many people, even one bite, was enough to eat Gu Jiusi raw!

She watched Gu Jiusi rush forward, her heart was beating fast, she didn't dare to make a sound, she was afraid of losing her temper, she could only keep talking to herself.

Trust him.

Trust him!

Just like Yangzhou gambled, like every time in the past, you must believe him!

She looked at Gu Jiusi carrying a spear, the horse galloped towards the thousands of troops, and shouted: "Kill!"

The 1,000 people who followed him rode on horses and rushed forward with their eyes closed. Gu Jiusi rushed forward the fastest. He stepped forward and waved his spear. With a loud roar, "I can't win, run!"

As soon as he finished shouting, everyone saw Gu Jiusi turning his horse's head and running towards the city gate all the way, shouting: "Open the city gate!!!"

Everyone was actually waiting for Gu Jiusi to say "run quickly", those who didn't rush forward turned their horses' heads and rushed towards the city. Without fighting, he turned and ran.

King Liang's army rushed over hundreds of miles, and was already exhausted, and could not catch up with the thousand people of Gu Jiusi, so everyone only saw this group of people on the battlefield coming and going like the wind. Second, he shouted "rush" aggressively, and in the next second, he took out his life-threatening posture and cried for his father and mother, shouting "Run, run, help!" and fled back to the city.

This move not only shocked King Liang, but also shocked everyone on the tower. Liu Yuru was the first to react, and immediately hurriedly said: "Open the city gate! Hurry up!"

Wangdu is a big city, the city gate is surrounded by a thick city wall, the city wall is arc-shaped, there are two gates in and out, and outside the city wall protecting the city gate is a moat, which is connected by the north and south sides. When the city gate falls, you can pass people only after riding the bridge.

Gu Jiusi ran all the way towards the city gate, Liu Yuru had never seen him run so fast, she couldn't help but laugh and cry, Gu Jiusi just arrived at the moat, the city gate just fell, Gu Jiusi rushed in on a horse , As soon as he entered the city, he immediately turned over and dismounted, and then rushed towards the castle tower!

He rushed to the tower, the tower had just finished arming, and the soldiers arrived. All of them drew their bows and arrows, and were always on standby. Ye Shian watched the battle situation and clenched his fists nervously. Gu Jiusi rushed up to the tower and said loudly, "Don't move! Don't shoot arrows!"

Everyone was fooled by him. Master Yang couldn't help but said, "Sir, if you don't shoot arrows at this moment, they will not be far from the city gate."

"Don't shoot." Gu Jiusi stared at the battlefield and calmly said, "Wait."

King Liang's people were getting closer to the city, and more and more soldiers rushed back. Gu Jiusi didn't give an order, and everyone didn't dare to move. He couldn't stop shaking his hands. Ye Shian looked at the distance of King Liang and couldn't help but reminded: "Jiusi, it's only two miles away."

"The last mile."

Gu Jiusi's heart was beating fast, but he still said: "If you go further, shoot arrows again!"

Master Yang couldn't bear it any longer, he hurriedly said, "If the archery starts at the last mile, it will be too late!"

However, at this moment, the sound of a horn suddenly blew in King Liang's barracks!

Everyone was stunned, but King Liang's soldiers really stopped. It was the neutral position for King Liang to retreat, and the last soldier entered the city. Gu Jiusi raised his hand, stared at the battlefield and said, "Close the city gate."

The city gate slowly closed, King Liang and the man in green shirt stared at Gu Jiusi on the city tower, Gu Jiusi showed a mocking expression and shouted: "Old thief, why don't you dare to come in? You have the ability. Just siege the city. There are no people in my city. They are all old, weak and sick. Come here quickly. If you don't come, you will be my grandson. I count three times. If you don't attack the city, stay away from Laozi's city! I'm impatient to get too close to my grandson! Three, two, one! Hey," Gu Jiusi said happily, "Grandson!"

Gu Jiusi danced on the city tower, scolding indifferently, but King Liang was unmoved, and began to ask the people to step back, and began to set up camp around Wangdu City five miles away, preparing to trim.

Seeing them retreating, Gu Jiusi continued to scold on the tower: "Why did you leave? Are you so obedient?"

When King Liang retreated completely, Gu Jiusi saw King Liang set up a tent and entered the tent. He suddenly collapsed, took a few steps back, and sat straight back.

Liu Yuru hurriedly supported him, but he rolled down with him. He was wearing dozens of pounds of armor, where could Liu Yuru be able to support him? He saw Liu Yuru being led by him and rolled and sat down in front of everyone's eyes. He leaned against the wall and suddenly grinned.

Liu Yuru looked at him with a heartless smile at her, afraid that anger would come together, she couldn't help raising her hand and slapped her with a slap.

Gu Jiusi was stunned by the slap, and was about to scold her for being stingy, when she saw Liu Yuru's tears falling down, she threw herself into his arms, and cried: "You tiger cub, why are you so arrogant!"

Gu Jiusi reacted, and everyone surrounded them, looking at them with a bit of confusion. He doesn't know where Liu Yuru's dignified days go at this moment, but he just feels that the two of them are sitting on the ground, surrounded by so many people and crying, because he has always been thick-skinned, and he can't bear the ridicule of his colleagues. Eyes out.

He coughed lightly, patted Liu Yuru's back, and whispered, "Yuru, I'm fine, get up."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Liu Yuru could hear the hoarseness in his voice. Just now, after scolding for so long, scolding at his throat, now that he is discouraged, his vocal cords hurt.

Liu Yuru hurriedly raised her head from his arms, only then did she realize that there were many people around, she pretended that nothing had happened, got up from Gu Jiusi's arms, and reached out to wipe her tears.

Gu Jiusi was pulled by Ye Shian to stand up, Liu Yuru went to pour him a glass of water, Gu Jiusi moistened her throat, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, come with me first."

The big guy followed Gu Jiusi into the hall. Gu Jiusi sat down and said with Ye Shian next to him, "Tell me about the situation first."

Ye Shian nodded, saying all the data and deployment situation aside, Gu Jiusi nodded. Seeing Gu Jiusi's calm expression, Master Yang next to him said anxiously, "Sir, what should we do now?"

"But they, there are so many of them."

One of them spoke carefully, Gu Jiusi looked up, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Do you have any other way?"

"Let's abandon the city."

The man said, "Or surrender."

"Lin Feng, this is the first time you have said this. We are brothers on weekdays, so I will spare you," Gu Jiusi looked calm, his voice was still hoarse, but there was a slight difference. There is a seriousness that is completely absent from the week, "But today I said that from this moment on, if anyone says the word surrender and abandon the city again, whoever will be dragged out and beheaded!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions froze, Gu Jiusi took the tea from the side, took a sip, and then said: "Don't blame me, I'm also for everyone's good. You must understand Oh, why did they travel so far? They came after being beaten by Master Fan! If they surrender today, and Master Fan will go back to Youdu, we will all be guilty of raiding our homes and destroying our homes!"

Speaking, Gu Jiusi raised his head and glanced at everyone: "We don't have a choice now, if we surrender, and when Master Fan turns back, none of us will be able to escape. If we abandon the city, it is also a death penalty. All I can do is to stand here in peace and wait for Master Fan to rescue him."

"But there are so many of them..."

Director Yang was a little worried: "I'm afraid that our resistance will be too fierce, and the city will not be able to be defended in the end. What should I do with the massacre?"

"No." Gu Jiusi said calmly, "Although there are many of them, when King Liang came, he was desperate for defeat, and the army was unstable; Thirdly, the best time for them to attack was just now. Now they are hesitant to move forward. We have already made arrangements, and it will be difficult for them to attack the city again. Moreover," Gu Jiusi tapped on the table, "we can't give them the chance to kill them. The time to siege the city again will be delayed."

"What do you mean?" Huang Long was a little confused, Gu Jiusi pondered, "Do you know who the man in Tsing Yi was on the battlefield?"

"It is the advisor of King Liang," Ye Shian replied, "Qin Si, it is said that this person is cunning and resourceful."

"Cleverness is mistaken by cleverness." Gu Jiusi smiled, and then said, "Now King Liang is expected to make some repairs, they should be the cavalry first, and the infantry are still behind, King Liang estimates The plan is to wait for all the soldiers to come to attack the city together. Let's do it," Gu Jiusi tapped on the table, "you go and call out all the girls in the brothel in the city, and sing and dance on the city tower at night, sing some Jingzhou ditties, and then at night. Every two hours, the drums are beaten."

Gu Jiusi's plan is clear to everyone, but he doesn't plan to let the other party sleep. It was a long-distance attack, and it was so noisy, who could sleep?

Gu Jiusi and everyone ordered what happened next, and finally looked at everyone and said, "Don't worry too much, everyone, I am not afraid of death, I am here to advance and retreat with everyone, no You will be joking with your own life, don't worry, King Liang is a paper tiger, Wangducheng will not be destroyed, and Lord Fan will save us."

This sentence was plain and light, but everyone listened, but their hearts were calm.

Hope was rekindled in everyone's eyes, so they went down and did their own things.

After everyone left, Ye Shian hesitated for a moment, but in the end he turned and left without asking anything.

Gu Jiusi laughed softly as he watched Ye Shian leave. Liu Yuru looked over with some doubts, and couldn't help but say, "What are you laughing at?"

Gu Jiusi shook his head, stood up and said, "Wait for me to change and go back with you."

Liu Yuru nodded, Gu Jiusi went behind the screen of the synagogue, took off his battle armor, and after a while, he changed back to his usual blue official uniform, wearing a fox fur, from behind the screen Walking out, he said to Liu Yuru, "Okay."

Gu Jiusi walked forward and held Liu Yuru's hand, he looked down at her, Liu Yuru looked up in a daze, saw Gu Jiusi's soft smile, and heard him whisper: "Are you scared today? "

Liu Yuru didn't speak, Gu Jiusi understood what she meant: "I'm making you worry," he stretched out his arms to hug her and smiled, "It's my fault, I won't be so rude in the future."

"I'm sorry." Liu Yuru said in a low voice, "I didn't restrain myself and hit you."

Gu Jiusi smiled: "I know, you are too scared. It's my fault to make you so scared, I should have told you earlier."

Speaking, Gu Jiusi held her hand and chuckled: "Go, go home."

The sound of going home made Liu Yuru feel warm, feeling that the whole winter has become milder.

Hand in hand, they walked home together in the cold winter night.

She was surprised to find that when she pulled this person, she felt that there was no obstacle in her life that she could not overcome.

She held his hand, she clearly sensed the panic in her heart when she realized that she might lose him on the battlefield today.

The two of them were walking on the road. When they got home, they entered the door. Gu Jiusi went to take a hot bath. Then he came out wearing clothes and found Liu Yuru making the bed. He quietly looked at her back, listened to the sound of the candle light bursting open, felt the suitable temperature of the charcoal fire, and smelled the right orange fragrance in the room.

This is a life where everything is just right, and Gu Jiusi clearly knows how much effort it takes to get this "just right". What kind of temperature is appropriate, what kind of fragrance is appropriate, these are things that need to be troubled. But since living with Liu Yuru, no matter what the situation is, Liu Yuru has a magical ability to make life live well under that situation.

Others live their lives, she lives.

Liu Yuru made the bed and noticed that Gu Jiusi had finished taking a shower, she turned around and met Gu Jiusi's gaze, she was stunned, pursed her lips, and said a little embarrassedly: "You What are you looking at me for?"

"It's nothing," Gu Jiusi laughed softly, "I just remembered what my mother said before. When I was a child, my mother told me that if you marry a good woman, you will find that you will live in your life. It's going to be fine no matter what. I didn't believe it before, but now I believe it."

Speaking, Gu Jiusi beckoned and said with her, "Come here."

Liu Yuru walked over with a blushing face, Gu Jiusi took her into his arms, he let her sit on his lap and put his hands on her waist, he leaned against her and said gently: " Yuru, when you're here, I think everything will pass."

"Don't talk nonsense," Liu Yuru smiled, "I'm not a talisman."

"Yuru," Gu Jiusi buried her face on her shoulder and whispered, "Actually, I'm very scared."

Liu Yuru was stunned for a while, Gu Jiusi said slowly, "I lied to them today. Master Fan won't come to the rescue soon. He won't come back to rescue us until he has at least captured Dongdu."

Liu Yuru was stunned when she heard this, she didn't dare to move, and she didn't dare to panic, it took her a long time to calm down, and whispered: "Then you today are to appease them. ?"

"What else can I do?"

Gu Jiusi's voice was steady: "You can't surrender, and you can't abandon the city. Now you can only grit your teeth and seek a way to survive. The reason why King Liang must take Youzhou is that his abacus is to be with Bei Liang. Help."

"Beiliang?" Liu Yuru couldn't understand, Gu Jiusi's voice was calm, "Beiliang has always been obstructed by the Great Wall, if King Liang exchanged Youzhou and asked Beiliang to send troops to attack Fanfan in the Central Plains, Beiliang would be afraid I can't ask for it. King Liang must now occupy Youzhou and plan to use Youzhou to make a comeback. Apart from this method, I can't think of any other way."

Liu Yuru didn't speak, Gu Jiusi continued: "You can't lose hope, and Youzhou can't be broken."

"I know."

"We have no choice but to guard."

"I understand."

"But I don't know if I can hold it." Gu Jiusi couldn't help but tighten his hands, and said in a low voice, "If I can't hold it, what will you do? How to do?"

"Don't be afraid," Liu Yuru said softly, "If you can't keep it, I can still carry a knife."

When Gu Jiusi heard this, he raised his head a little blankly, Liu Yuru turned his head and put his arms around his neck, smiled and said: "At that time, we will not lose by killing one person, but we will make a profit by killing two people. When people walk together, there is nothing to be afraid of, right?"

Gu Jiusi did not speak, he looked at Liu Yuru, the girl seemed to be acting like a spoiled child, but what she said was not from the spoiled person at all.

He always knew that she had blood in her bones, but he didn't think that this girl was always much more courageous than he thought.

He took a deep breath and raised his hand to cover her face.

"Don't worry," he said softly, "there won't be that day."

It’s not worth killing the two of them to make a steady profit’? Don’t worry,” he leaned against her, as if taking an oath, his voice was steady and deep, “I’ve tried my best, and I won’t let them enter Wangducheng.”
