Those arrows were overwhelming, like a storm, hitting the frightened faces of everyone in the city.
It was too late to draw the sword at this moment. Everyone watched helplessly, stunned in disbelief. People's life and death were often clearly determined in this moment of confusion.
At this moment, an arrow flew straight towards Shi Jin's left eye in the whistling airflow. Shi Jin hurriedly stretched out his hand to pluck it, but he didn't expect that Shi Qian was one step ahead of him.
He arrived first and grabbed the arrow and held it tightly in his hand. At the same time, those Shaohuashan brothers who had no time to recover were slow and unable to catch the arrow, so they had to turn around subconsciously.
I thought that what was going to happen next would be a tragic scene of blood splashing through the helmet. But I didn’t expect that there was just a clanking sound, and the arrow feathers that were shot on the body all fell to the ground, and most of the arrow feathers jumped over
People flew directly into the city overhead.
Shi Qian brought the captured arrow feathers to Shi Jin. Shi Jin took a closer look and saw the clues of the arrow feathers. No wonder it could fly a distance of three hundred strides without losing momentum. It turned out that
, this arrow is a headless arrow, the heavy arrow is removed, and a paper roll is inserted.
Shi Jin called to the left and right and moved the torch closer. With the light of the flame, Shi Jin gently pulled out the paper roll, unfolded the paper and took a closer look. There were black words written on it in fly-headed small letters.
Shi Qian watched from the side and read out the words he recognized one by one: "Spring...what luck, emperor...emperor...what day" Shi Qian couldn't stop reading, he didn't know many words.
, In addition, the words on the paper looked too easy, so he gnawed and read half a sentence without understanding. He turned to look at Shi Jin and said seriously: "Brother, it's still early for spring, Emperor."
What's going on here? Tell me, we are all a bunch of grown-ups, what is he implying?"
Shi Jin lowered his head and took a closer look. It read:
"By the destiny of heaven, the emperor issued an edict: Since I came to the throne, I have governed the world with benevolence and righteousness. I have rewarded and punished people to determine the war. I have never been too lazy to seek talents. I love the people as if I am afraid of falling behind. I am a pure child who knows my heart. I will miss the fallen grass in Shaohua Mountain and so on.
Everyone, we are loyal and do not commit violence. We have long been willing to submit to you and are eager to serve. Although we have committed evil crimes, we all have our own reasons. Looking at our true feelings, we are deeply sympathized with. I have sent Meng, Superintendent of Soldiers and Horses of Huazhou, to
I issued an edict and went to Huayin County in person to pardon the crimes committed by Shi Jin and other officials. This is why you are the ones who uphold my will and answer the will of heaven. After you proclaim yourself, you will abide by the agreement and forever.
Shoulders should be of one mind, and the people nearby should not cause trouble. Remember the duties of the ministers and observe the essentials. I am grateful for the emperor's kindness, and there is no substitute for it. Only obey the words of the emperor, and always respect the instructions."
"Brother, what did he mean?" Shi Qian looked at his elder brother, his round eyes looking at Shi Jin's face full of questions.
Shi Jin balled up the paper in the palm of his hand, threw it at his feet, and said angrily: "This old fox, I know he has no good intentions when he comes. He is not attacking the city, but attacking the heart!"
"Attack the heart? What attack method?"
"Kill people and kill the heart without spilling blood! This is a more vicious method than shooting people and horses, capturing thieves and kings. This letter is here to persuade you to surrender, but the letter does not mention anything about what we will do after the surrender.
Stay or leave, how to arrange them, and the meaning of the soldiers below the city is even clearer. He just wants to tell us that if we don't surrender, we will be silenced!" Shi Jin said, Shi Qian also got angry, and took a sip, as if
It's like spitting in Inspector Meng's face.
Shi Qian tugged on Shi Jin's sleeve and asked emphatically: "Brother, even if the emperor gives us benefits, do you really want to obey and recruit me?"
Shi Jin shook his head slightly and said seriously: "Of course not, it's just..."
"Just what?"
At such a critical juncture, working together is the last word, and trust is the premise of everything, so Shi Jin hesitated a little, and after turning the words in his mouth for a few times, he whispered: "It's just... I'm worried about the brothers...
…”
Shi Jin hesitated for half of what he said, and Shi Qian cleverly guessed it in his mind. Although he had experienced a lot in the past few days, he still didn't know much about Shaohua Mountain. He couldn't say anything at this moment: "Brothers swear to each other to the death."
"Sui" came to comfort his elder brother, but when Shi Qian saw Shi Jin's gloomy look, an idea flashed in his mind, and he comforted Shi Jin and said: "Brother, don't worry, they write like this. There are few literate people, so it can't shake the military morale."
.”
Shi Jin looked around and saw that everyone on the city wall was unfolding the small recruitment paper shot up with one hand, whispering to each other, and obviously, the majority of the people were illiterate.
But there was something unexpected in this. It was obvious that a group of people had gathered not far away. The man in the middle was obviously reading something for everyone, and they were discussing endlessly. Shi Jin felt something was wrong, and after staring for a moment, he immediately became alert. The man in the middle
It turned out to be Wu Sangou!
Wu Sangou followed Chen Da all the way out. He did things cleanly and was cautious and courageous. He was Chen Da's confidant and was highly valued by Chen Da. But now Chen Da is not here, but Wu Sangou is here.
Among the soldiers, Shi Jin saw that their group was pointing and arguing at first, and then they disagreed with each other. It was obvious that something was going on!
But before Shi Jin had time to go and question him, Supervisor Meng spoke up and said with as much confidence as a bell: "God's grace is so great. I think you have taken a look and thought about it, whether someone has already decided."
Woolen cloth?"
After this sentence was sent to the city, all the soldiers in the city fell silent, and even Wu Sangou's group suddenly stopped making any noise. It was as if everyone was waiting for something, as if everyone was announcing something in silence.
At this moment, Shi Jin stepped on the battlement and said loudly and forcefully: "I have decided!"
Shi Jin's voice exceeded everyone's expectations. Everyone turned their attention to Shi Jin, and Shi Jin said loudly: "Even if I die in a random knife, I will not open the door to your official family.
I won’t let your methods succeed!”
"Hahaha!" Supervisor Meng leaned back and laughed, and continued: "That little kid, could it be Jiuwenlong Shijin, who rushed into my camp that day and broke through the encirclement to break through the northwest camp?
Is that you?"
"Exactly!" Shi Jin said with so much energy that the officers and soldiers in the city could hear him from far and near.
When Inspector Meng heard this sound, he nodded secretly in his heart and said: "What a great talent! Even though we looked at each other from afar that day, I admired your Kung Fu and courage! There's just one thing that makes me
I don’t quite understand that a person like you, who is talented in martial arts at a young age, would have achieved great success if he served in the imperial court, but why would you want to fall like a weed in this barren Huayin County and taint the body given by your parents?”
After hearing this, Shi Jin sneered and said: "It is up to one's heart to know whether the weeds have fallen or not. I originally wanted to make contributions to the country and the people, so that I can show off my parents and my descendants. But the world is dark and there is no way to join the country. What's more, today's
Traitors are in power and the government is not upright. If you ask me to serve as an official, I will not join in the slander with you and prey on the common people. That is really tarnishing the innocent body given by my parents!"
After Shi Jin said this, the brothers in the city were all excited. This not only revealed their inner difficulties, but also gave them a reputation as a righteous Luocao. Not only did they hold their heads high in front of the officers and soldiers, but they could also speak loudly
Look down on the officers and soldiers.
In Inspector Meng's case, although these words were somewhat unpleasant, he had a deeper respect for Shi Jin. But respect is respect, even though Inspector Meng had to recruit Shi Jin.
However, he had already expected that Shi Jin would rebel against Lin, and Gu Er secretly had his own plan, which was to pull out all the stops and dismantle the power of Shaohua Mountain, forcing him to have no choice but to act emotionally.
, most of the time it will be done.
After Supervisor Meng thought about it, he waved his hand to the general who was delivering the order, and a big change occurred in the formation of the officers and soldiers.
When Shi Jin took a look, he felt something strange. He hurriedly ordered everyone to draw their bows and set up arrows. As long as they dared to rush into the range of the bows and arrows with a slight move, he would immediately shoot three rounds and fight them to the death!
