Lianjiang City is already in front of us. What happens if we go back now? You must know that this opportunity is fleeting. Whether it is defending the city or attacking the city, these two hours are crucial. For the lives of a dozen soldiers
, regardless of the safety of Lianjiang City, is this what the general did?
Wang Zhanjin stretched out his arm to stop Yan Zhuo and asked, "Are you going to ignore Lianjiang City for Wang Erhu and those dozen people? You can't tell which is more important!"
Faced with Wang Zhanjin's question, Yan Zhuo just smiled: "Didn't you just say that if we go back now, we are trying to kill a stone with an egg? Now we have a reason not to go back, why are you so anxious?" What he said was frivolous.
It's really hard to tell which one is more serious.
"Do you really want to go back and save those people?" Wang Zhanjin asked.
"I have to go, but I have to go." Yan Zhuo replied decisively, "If you don't want me to give you the troops, I will go alone."
Wang Zhanjin is a general. In his eyes, there are gains and losses, whether it is conquering a city or killing people. He cares about brotherhood and cherishes the friendship of his comrades, but for the lives of a few unfamiliar recruits, he does not care about the overall situation. This is what he did.
No. And Yan Zhuo is a chivalrous person. In the eyes of a chivalrous person, there is love and righteousness, he can save people, he can save people, he has courage and courage, so he has to save people like Wang Erhu. He must save them.
"If you don't want to go, I'll give you the soldiers and horses, and I'll go alone." After saying that, Yan Zhuo rode away, causing a puff of smoke.
In the smoke and dust, a group of soldiers were ready to move, but they looked at the running general and at the king who was standing there with his arms spread out, and they didn't know what to do.
Wang Zhanjin looked at Yan Zhuo's back and sighed. He could ignore Wang Erhu, but he couldn't ignore Yan Zhuo. He held the knife in his hand, pulled up the reins, and shouted: "Damn, what are you looking at?"
,Didn’t you see that the generals have left?”
"What about the prisoners?" a soldier asked.
"Cut twice, kick twice, let go!" Wang Zhanjin was worried that he had no place to spread his evil fire.
The officers and soldiers were delighted when they heard this. They raised and lowered their swords very quickly. In just two or three blinks, they picked up the prisoners, rode their horses after Yan Zhuo, and marched towards Shao'an City again.
At this moment, "General Zhao" is not only a general who can lead them to charge into battle and conquer cities and territories, but he also regards them as his eldest brother and brother!
Wang Zhanjin rushed to Yan Zhuo and said angrily: "If Mr. Zhao misses the opportunity to fight this time, the blame will be yours, and I won't bear the responsibility for you!"
Yan Zhuo chuckled: "Jiang Zuolv, this is a case of sitting together. You didn't stop me and still stayed with me. You can't escape this crime. However, generally speaking, it's okay. Wang Feihu is still a good hand in defending the city, even if he is besieged.
It can last for ten days and a half."
"He can last for ten days and a half. Let me see if you can last for ten days!" Wang Zhanjin rolled his eyes and said, "Just watch me and I'll stab you in the back."
"Then you have to be able to catch up with me." After saying that, Yan Zhuo used his thighs hard and raised his whip to urge the horse away, leaving only Wang Zhanjin's bright back.
In fact, when it comes down to it, Yan Zhuo has no idea.
The deserters in Shao'an City and the defeated troops just now totaled at least ten thousand people. They had obviously planned this series of plans. If they really thought of some way to attack the city, it was hard to say.
.
Moreover, if the deserters and defeated soldiers gathered in Shao'an City again, Wang Erhu and the dozen or so people might have died in the battle, and he was just collecting their corpses in the past.
No, I have to take them back even if I die. I, Yan Zhuo, have never left one of my brothers behind in my whole life!
Shao'an City.
Wang Erhu and others were carefully walking through a small alley. They had grown up in Shao'an City since they were children and were very familiar with every plant and tree in the city. However, at this moment, they really couldn't tell which household was which.
my home.
"Brother Erhu, this...this has been burned down. Which household here is our home?" A soldier said in a trembling voice with tears in his eyes.
Wang Erhu looked at the collapsed houses one after another. The original white walls had been burned black by the fire. A few pieces of broken porcelain still shone faintly in the sunset, like stars obscured by black clouds.
The black smoke has dissipated, but the blackness soaked in broken walls, dead trees, and bluestone bricks will never dissipate.
"Don't cry, this is our home, and we can't find another home. There are two stone lions at the door of Yuanwai Lu's house diagonally across from my house. I don't believe that those two stone lions can be burned by fire!"
Wang Erhu focused his eyes and carefully looked at every detail.
Suddenly, a soldier screamed: "Brother Erhu, there is a dead man here."
"What do dead people fear?" Wang Erhu said, turning to look at the corpse on the ground, his eyes widened and he almost vomited.
It was a corpse, a fat corpse.
The corpse lying on the ground had been thoroughly burned and carbonized by the fire. When the soldier touched it, the hand stretched out in the air was scattered all over the ground.
"Commander Lu!" Wang Erhu exclaimed in shock, "He is Yuan Wai Lu!"
"It's burned like this, how do you know it's Yuan Wai Lu?"
Wang Erhu pointed at his belly, which was as plump as a hillock, and said: "Other than Mr. Lu in Lianjiang City, who else has so much oil and water in his belly?" As he said this, he looked around and saw Lu.
If the Communist Party member is here, then this must be his house. There is a rockery and a fish pond in his house, but now apart from the ruins, nothing can be seen.
He was thinking like this and walked around again. After walking for more than ten feet, he felt that his feet were soft, as if there was quicksand. He stepped on a few tentative feet and felt the thin layer of soil under his feet.
There are other things buried.
Wang Feihu called the others and used his hands and feet to sweep away the thin layer of soil. As the thin layer of soil was swept away, an arm was revealed, followed by the torso and legs, and then another person's arm. Only
Under that thin layer of soil, there were layers upon layers of densely packed, countless burnt corpses.
"This is the fucking fish pond outside Yuan Lu!" Wang Feihu exclaimed, "The fucking inhuman Japanese thieves killed all the people in Shao'an City and burned them in this fish pond!" Wang Feihu shouted,
A gust of sad wind blew up the thin soil covering the corpse.
The black clouds were even lower, shrouding the sky and the earth in darkness.
Those people were stunned for a moment, and tears flowed down in their confused eyes. They stared, neither moving nor speaking. Time seemed to have stopped, and there was no ripple for a long time. Sadness was quietly flowing.
There was a turbulent undercurrent under the surface, and it took a long time before it turned into waves of mourning.
"Brother Erhu, we have no home!"
"Brother Erhu, our home is gone."
Wang Erhu also had tears in his eyes. He closed his eyes tightly and squeezed out all the tears in his eyes. Then he clenched his fists and said: "Don't fucking cry. If we don't have a home, don't we still have it?"
Do you have a life? If you have a life, we can take revenge!"
"My mother and my sister are both in this city, I want to find them!"
"Look for it!" Wang Erhu said, "They are all dead. Grab a handful of scorched earth and think about it. Remember, we can't kill all the Japanese pirates. We are sorry for our parents, and we are also sorry for the fellow villagers in Lianjiang City!"
"
Just as he was saying this, in the dusk, a Japanese bandit army of more than a thousand people had entered Shao'an City, and the rising heads were like waves rushing towards Wang Erhu and others.
Both sides discovered each other almost at the same time.
The Japanese pirates shouted: "There is a Jiangzuo team, surround them!"
Wang Erhu shouted: "Damn it, the Japanese bandits are back again, retreat quickly, go to the city gate and set up a formation there!"
Wang Erhu was quite clever, and he knew that these dozen people were no match for the Japanese pirates, and they could only drag them off in a narrow place.
"Brother Erhu, what should we do when we arrive at the gate of the city? There are only a dozen of us and no one comes to support us. How can we hold on?"
"If you can't defend it, defend it. The worst case scenario is death. Before we die, we have to pull in a few more people." Wang Erhu said, "We have two wolf-toothed swords. We can kill him seventy or eighty times at least."
A Japanese pirate."
"Enough is enough to avenge our family!"
City gate.
Two shield soldiers were placed at the front. Wang Feihu and another strong man placed the two wolf-toothed swords on their shields. Although they did not block the city gate completely, they still blocked a few or eight of them.
After the wolf fangs, there are four spearmen, two swordsmen and one archer. Ordinarily, there are at least four archers in Yan Zhuo's group, but there is only one archer in Wang Feihu's group of township party.
So I can only make do with it.
The Japanese bandit leader looked at the Jiangzuo team of more than a dozen people parked at the gate of the city, positioning themselves to fight him, with a disdainful smile on his face and mockingly said: "Hey, skinny Jiangzuo men, surrender.
La."
Wang Erhu listened to the Japanese bandit shouting, tilted his head towards the crossbowman behind him, and then shot out an arrow, frightening the Japanese bandit leader to duck, the arrow passed by, and hit a man behind him.
The unfortunate Japanese pirate's chest.
"You don't know what is good and what is evil!" The Japanese bandit leader was furious and ordered his men to fight back.
In an instant, the Japanese bow fired dozens of feather arrows, but they were all blocked by the wolf fangs and shields.
The Japanese bandit leader became even more angry. With a wave of his Japanese sword, he commanded nearly a hundred Japanese bandits to charge towards the dozen or so people at the city gate. However, as soon as they reached the passage, they were blocked by the wolf-toothed sword. Nearly a hundred people chopped with all their strength.
They were unable to move even half a step forward. On the contrary, many people had their eyes and cheeks scratched by the "wolf fangs", covering their faces and kneeling on the ground, wailing uncontrollably.
Seeing this, the Japanese bandit leader became even more furious. He gritted his teeth and said, "Grandma, what should I do?"
"Burn it with fire!" One of the guards suddenly said, "The bamboo is also wood, why don't we just use fire?"
