Chapter 69 Raise the world and save me (5)
The Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/Chapter 69: Raise the world and save me (Five)
It has been ten days since the siege of the city. However, this small Kunyang has never been captured.
Wang Yi and Wang Xun were already impatient.
Although there are not many soldiers in the city and the walls of the small city are not tall, it seems that no matter how hard it is, it cannot make the seemingly insignificant city in front of you fall.
But they couldn't give up Kunyang and went directly to rescue Wancheng.
Not only because Kunyang controls the throat of the southward Wancheng, but also because there is someone in the city that they have to kill.
Liu Xiu.
Wang Yi sighed, still thinking about his son Wang Mu, who was still in Wancheng. But before leaving, what His Majesty said when he summoned them into the palace was still vivid in his ears...
——"Remember, no matter what, you must kill Liu Xiu. Mu'er is my disciple. With Han Zhuo by his side, he will never die even if Wancheng is in ruins. But Liu Xiu... Liu Xiu must be killed!"
Wang Mang gasped for two times with a hoarse voice, staring at Wang Yi and Wang Kuang and the others: "This is an order, an order that must not be violated!"
"Your Majesty's appearance at that time is really terrifying..." Wang Yi was still in fear until he remembered the scene at that time.
Wang Mang, who was over 70 years old, was so thin that he was almost skinny that he was left with bones, like a skeleton. The wide crown garment was worn on him, as if it was hanging on a clothes hanger, empty, and almost a gust of wind could blow him away.
But his hands were holding the wrists of Wang Yi and Wang Xun tightly, like an iron hoop. The strength that burst out from here, and they still couldn't figure it out.
Wang Mang looked at them, like a tiger in the mountains that was about to aging until death, still radiating a sharp light.
"Yes... the heroic and domineering aura that used to be has not yet subsided. But..." Wang Xun also nodded and sighed softly: "Your Majesty's body is afraid it has already..."
"Even if you are healthy, I'm afraid the world of this new dynasty is..." Wang Yi frowned: "You and I will withdraw from Hebei with 200,000 troops, which is equivalent to handing over the two prefectures of Youji to the Red Eyebrow Army. The defenders of the Great Wall were also transferred to Nanyang, and the entire northern defense line was gone. Only in Chang'an and Tongguan, 20,000 or 30,000 troops were left. If we cannot quickly suppress the rebels in Nanyang and return to Chang'an, we are afraid..."
Wang Xun sighed deeply and didn't say anything. Both of them were already in deep pessimism.
...
Liu Xiu looked at the new army soldiers who were retreating like a tide under the city. His energy-filled body seemed to be taken away and fell softly backwards, and Ren Guang quickly reached out to support him.
"Finally... retreated again." Liu Xiu smiled weakly at Ren Guang: "Thank you."
Ren Guang's left arm and left leg were wrapped in bandages, which were the injuries suffered in the previous battle. During the fierce battle just now, the wounds broke again, and blood kept oozing out of the bandage, making it red.
Liu Xiu's appearance was not much better than him. In addition to a gunshot wound on his waist, there was an arrow wound on his left cheek. Fortunately, the feathered arrow had reduced its strength when it flew to the top of the city, and it was just a scratch. Otherwise, the arrow would have shot through his head.
"It's been... twenty days. Brother hasn't captured Wancheng yet..." Liu Xiu wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed softly.
"The Lord must be attacking the city with all his strength. If he gives up Wancheng at this time and comes to Kunyang Yuan, then everything that has been done before will be wasted. The Lord will naturally know very clearly which one is more important." Ren Guang said in a deep voice: "What's more, the Lord must also believe in the young master's ability and will defend Kunyang before he arrives!"
"If this continues, I'm afraid I can't really defend it..." Liu Xiu sighed and looked down from under the city wall. After twenty days of fierce battle, the enemy troops under the city wall were still boundless, as if there was no reduction at all.
Now there are only less than 6,000 defenders in the city. Even those who are still alive are injured.
"We have to increase our troops..."
Liu Xiu murmured to himself as he looked at the siege under the city.
"Increase troops? Where to increase troops?" Ren Guang was stunned, thinking that Liu Xiu was talking nonsense.
"Break through the siege, go find reinforcements!" Liu Xiu suddenly sat up, and a light shone in his eyes: "That's right! We want to break through and find reinforcements!"
"Wancheng must be sieging the city every day now, I'm afraid there will be no extra troops to help Kunyang. Besides..." Ren Guang shook his head: "Besides, he is surrounded by a group of people outside the city, how can he break through?"
Liu Xiu laughed: "Of course, Wancheng has no spare time to help Kunyang, but have you forgotten that there are thousands of troops in Dingling and Yancheng to go to the southeast? If I remember correctly, the Pinglin soldiers stationed there. My brother and I have a good relationship with them. If we can bring them back, we will be more confident in defending the city."
"This... this is simply suicide!" Ren Guang grabbed his hand in horror: "Young Master, be awake!"
"I'm very sober, Ren Guang." Liu Xiu patted Ren Guang with his backhand, and his eyes were as clear as water: "I'm serious. And you know, when I decide something, you can't stop me."
Ren Guang looked at Liu Xiu calmly and whispered: "That's... worse."
...
"This is impossible! Stop dreaming!"
In the conference hall, Liu Xiu's statement was only exchanged for Wang Feng's roar.
"The soldiers in the city are less than half of the original ones, and now you still have to divide your troops to break through and ask for help? Before you bring the reinforcements back, the city has been broken! It's broken!" Wang Feng stared at Liu Xiu fiercely: "The 400,000 troops outside the city, how do you plan to break through and how do you bring the reinforcements back?"
"I just said I wanted to break through, but I didn't say I wanted to divide the troops." Liu Xiu shook his head calmly: "I won't lead the troops out of the city."
"...what did you say?" Wang Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Xiu.
"I said, when I broke through, I would not take away any soldiers or soldiers in the city." Liu Xiu smiled: "My brother's ranger was handed over to me as a guard before coming to Kunyang. Until today, there were only ten dead left. I only took them. I think, no matter how tight the city is, it is not short of these ten people, right?"
"You... do you want to lead ten people to break through the siege outside? Break through the 400,000 people?" Wang Feng looked at Liu Xiu as if he saw an idiot and laughed: "If you say you have brought one or two thousand people to break through, even if I don't believe you can succeed, I will always think you are saying it seriously. But... ten people? ten people? Liu Xiu, do you think that the 400,000 people outside are all made of paper?"
"I'll just ask you, is that OK?" Liu Xiu looked at Wang Feng coldly.
"Okay! OK! Of course!" Wang Feng continued to smile, laughing so hard that he couldn't hold back: "I can double it for you, it doesn't matter if twenty people are! I hope you must bring the reinforcements back! The defenders in Kunyang City are all looking forward to it!"
Liu Xiu looked up at Wang Feng's still laughing wildly, and sneered: "Xie Chengguo Shanggong. His subordinates have surrendered."
"Go and die! Idiot!"
