One hundred and thirtieth eighth chapter officers and soldiers battalion dark wave surge II
Zhu Ning picked up the cup and saucer with one hand and opened the lid with the other. The aroma of tea suddenly rose up. Zhu Ning took a deep breath, as if the fragrance of tea suddenly entered through the nose and blended with his heart. The look of extreme enjoyment was completely different from the ferocious sneer just now.
The generals knelt on the ground like this, and felt a faint pain in their armored knees. They lowered their heads and smelled the fragrance of Zhu Ning's tea. They couldn't help but lick their dry lips, and glanced at each other secretly. Looking at each other, they quietly waited for Zhu Ning to speak, but Zhu Ning kept silent. In such a quiet and somewhat embarrassing atmosphere, the generals lived like years, as if every minute and every second was being stretched out wonderfully. Okay, this suffering is really uncomfortable.
Zhu Ning took a sip, closed his eyes, and savored the aroma of the tea in the cup. He closed his eyes and shook his head slightly, as if he was intoxicated. However, at such a moment, Zhu Ning suddenly Opening his eyes, which were filled with refined light, Zhu Ning looked at the group of shabby generals in front of him and said in a rather stern tone: "Get up,"
"Thank you, sir," the generals thanked in unison, and then stood up unsteadily with their sore legs.
Zhu Ning saw this, but secretly cursed in his heart, "I asked you to kneel for a while and then you knelt like this. You don't know how you are so dignified and dignified on weekdays, but what's wrong with going to the battlefield like this?" , Zhu Ning's face was a little unhappy, so he didn't even look at them. He sipped his tea and said, "You guys don't look very good."
The generals didn't know what Zhu Ning meant by his words, and no one dared to speak for a while. However, Fang Yusheng understood clearly that he was angry with Zhu Ning in his heart, so he didn't say anything, and simply lost the huge silence here. But Zhu Ning didn't seem to care, and had no intention of letting them talk, and continued: "Looking at this, it will be difficult for you to fight tonight..."
When the generals heard this, they could tell the quality of what they said. Before they could say anything to redeem themselves, Zhu Ning continued speaking, as if not giving them any chance: "But, it doesn't matter. After all, it doesn't matter." I can't blame you for being so young. Since you are weak mentally and physically, you should give up your position as general. I see that your lieutenants are all very active. What I, the Song Dynasty, need is such a group of young generals. Don't be afraid. Die, dare to charge, the most important thing is, they are obedient, you say, yes or no,"
What he said couldn't be more clear. At that moment, all the generals were so frightened that they all knelt down again. This time, they didn't care about the sore knees. They all clasped their hands and said: "Sir, we will fight with all our strength. I don’t dare to slack off at all, I hope you will make it happen,”
Zhu Ning ignored them, just nodded slightly, looked over their heads, passed through the door of the tent, looked at the crimson fire cloud in the distance, and said slowly: "Today, we lost a total of seven thousand Soldiers and horses, fortunately, our army's vitality has not been damaged, and we can still make a last stand." After speaking, Zhu Ning paused and then said slowly: "Everyone, get up."
Fang Yusheng could understand clearly that Zhu Ning had established his authority and was really shouting. He was probably going to talk about something big next. So, when the generals were still hesitant to stand and kneel, he took the lead to stand up and press the button. He returned to his original seat and stood on both sides of the big tent, waiting for Lord Zhu Ning's orders.
Zhu Ning looked at the people standing on both sides, and then continued: "Since Supervisor Meng came here and surrounded Huayin County, the thieves have failed to break through several times and have been blocked in many places, but today , The thieves must be rejoicing when they defeat our army. Those ignorant mountain men must have guessed that our army's vitality is injured and will not go to attack the city again tonight, and they will also have a chance to rest and breathe, but..."
Zhu Ning glanced at the generals and said firmly: "We can't give them this opportunity. As the saying goes, 'A proud soldier will be defeated.' We will take advantage of the cover of night to kill him at the foot of Huayin County and kill him by surprise. We will definitely We can regain lost ground and avenge our humiliation in one battle,"
"My lord is wise," all the generals responded in unison.
Zhu Ning smiled slightly and said very cautiously: "General Fang, when you go to attack the city today, do you see how the west city gate tower is on guard?"
Fang Yusheng took a step forward and said: "Returning to your lord, when the general led his troops forward, although he was holding down the rear, he could see the layout of the city very clearly. The thieves had many archers and archers, and they were divided into three waves. Taking turns to shoot arrows, the arrow feathers are like a sudden rain from the sky, and the arrows are fired continuously, reaching both near and far. It is obvious that someone is deliberately manipulating..."
Zhu Ning raised his hand slightly, stopped Fang Yusheng's words, and asked: "The explosions will not stop,"
"That's right, since the vanguard took a hundred strides away from the city gate, they suddenly launched an attack. Until... until the whole army was defeated, the arrow feathers never stopped. The arrow feathers in the sky were like locusts, overwhelming and hard to guard against. ," Fang Yusheng carefully chose his words and summed up the situation at that time.
Zhu Ning pinched his chin and pondered for a while, then shook his head and said: "In this way, there were thousands of arrows shot this time. They threw all the arrows in one go. Are you done?"
Fang Yusheng thought for a while and then immediately answered: "Sir, I don't think a thief would dare to be so reckless and cut off his own retreat in order to defeat a temporary enemy. I think Shi Jin would never be able to do such a thing. "
"Oh, it seems that you know the enemy quite well. Then tell me, this thief has spent so many arrow feathers just for one attack and defense. So if we attack a few more times, what will happen to him? He will do the same thing every time. Hospitality? Where did he get such a large reserve? Isn't it time for him to exhaust it?" Zhu Ning said with a sneer and said: "In my opinion, this Huayin County is already a strong one from outside. The last attack you suffered was... It’s already their last stand in the battle between trapped beasts. The man named Shi Jin is trapped in Huayin County and has obviously exhausted his food. If you attack Huayin County tonight, you will definitely be able to capture him."
"grown ups,"
Zhu Ning followed the sound and looked around. It turned out to be Li Shouyi. He stepped out of the queue, clasped his hands in his fists and said, "Sir, this Shi Jin is very cunning and can do anything. It's better to be careful."
"Hmph," Zhu Ning snorted coldly and said angrily: "Then you can tell me, if he really has a large reserve of arrow feathers, where do they come from? Is it because they fell from the sky, or are they in the city? There is a group of craftsmen who make arrow feathers stationed here,"
"This... I'm afraid it's none of them, but I'm afraid it's all possible," Li Shouyi said solemnly, but Zhu Ning was quite surprised when he heard it.
"How do you say this? It's nothing, it's nothing, it's possible,"
"Well, I don't know, sir. A while ago, a secret report from Huayin County came back saying that the thieves in the city have run out of food and water. But look at it now, just listening to their shouts on the city walls, you can tell that all of them are very confident. Hou, there is no sign of hunger and thirst. Not to mention that they will be in chaos due to lack of food. Now it seems that the security on the west gate tower is even tighter. Moreover, the people in the city have not rioted, and they are obviously not suffering from hunger or thirst. The persecution, sir, you see, such a terrible person can even handle food, let alone tens of thousands of arrow feathers, I think he is certainly not a problem,"
"Huh, what you mean is that this Shi Jin has become an immortal, and we really can't do anything to him. Let him dominate Huayin County, and it won't work if we ask all our heads to return to Beijing to be found in Caishikou," Zhu Ning thought after hearing this. Although he was surprised, his military spirit could not be shaken.
When Li Shouyi heard this, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down again and said, "My lord, I definitely don't dare. I just want to give you a warning, and..."
Zhu Ning sneered in his heart after hearing this, but there were some things that he had to guard against, especially when Li Shouyi said "and", so he followed the words and asked: "And how,"
"Besides, if you want to attack the city, the ladder used to attack the city is no longer useful..." Li Shouyi said, his voice getting lower and lower, and finally it was as low as a mosquito.
Zhu Ning knew what he meant. The ladders used to attack the city were all trapped in the west gate tower. At this moment, they had already been burned up by rockets fired by the thieves who were defending the city. So Zhu Ning waved his hand and said: " Don’t worry, I have other solutions,”
Fang Yusheng knew as soon as he heard this. Although Zhu Ning talked so much nonsense, in fact, he just wanted to test the mentality of this group of people and see how many of them were resolute masters. Zhu Ning had already felt this in his heart. Developed a strategy to attack the city.
So Fang Yusheng immediately seized this opportunity, clasped his hands in front of his fists and said, "Sir, please give me the order. We will risk our lives to fight. If we don't serve the country, it would be a shame."
"Hahaha, this is true. Well, what I want is this kind of tenacity." Sure enough, Zhu Ning's face softened a lot. He patted the corner of the table and said, "Generals, listen to your orders."
"I'm here," all the generals took a step forward and said solemnly with their hands clasped in fists.
"Fang Yusheng led his lieutenants and the remaining two thousand people to the west city gate, spread out, five steps apart, and spread it out for me. There is no need to light torches, just shout at the top of your lungs," Zhu said. After Ning said that, he glanced at Fang Yusheng, who was slightly happy, and thought to himself, you can bear this kind of love.
Looking at the arrangement, Fang Yusheng naturally knew that this was a mission that would bring meritorious service without having to spend any money, so he suddenly clasped his hands into fists, feeling happy in his heart. His prejudice against Zhu Ning was thrown away thousands of miles away, and he said firmly: "The general will receive the order. When the time comes, the general will definitely fill the upper floors of the west city of Huayin County with our shouts of killing, making them frightened by the news."
Zhu Ning nodded, smiled slightly and said: "Great... great,"
