One hundred and sixty-eighth chapter charcoal in the snow
There is a tributary of the Han River called Ning River.
The Ning River originates from the mountains in the south of Anling County, passes through the north and south of Anling County, goes all the way north, and finally merges into the Han River.
The flow of the Ning River is not fast, and the river is wide and deep. It is the most important river transportation route in Anling County. For this reason, the river connects three extremely important cities in the north and south of Anling County, among which the northernmost one
One is Roucheng, an important town in the north of Anling County and the capital of Anling County, and the southernmost one is Nancheng.
Nancheng is located to the east of Ninghe River. All the military towns and towns in the southern part of Anling County are based on it, forming a radial layout. Among them, the line from Nancheng to Ganshuiguan is the most coherent, both in terms of official roads and prosperous commercial roads.
They are all the best in the southern part of Anling County.
But such an important town, a large city in the hinterland of Anling County that the Han family has relied on for hundreds of years, is currently undergoing war and the sound of killings is everywhere!
What’s even more surprising is that the people defending the city are soldiers from Lijun wearing crimson cloaks, while those attacking outside the city are soldiers from Anling wearing the armor of the Anling County frontier army!
It was past noon, and there were fireworks all over the city. From time to time, a huge stone flew from a distance, and would hit somewhere on the city wall with a heart-stopping whistling sound. Once the huge stone hit the body,
It was the tragic result of dying silently under the city wall.
Bloody and bloody.
Suddenly, a golden light shot from a distance. It was almost impossible to grasp its whereabouts among the flames and smoke below the city. But just as the golden light flew close to the ground and flew to the city gate, it was caught by a red beam falling from the sky.
The light collapsed, revealing a silver flying sword that drew an arc in the air and then flew back!
"Damn it, those Nanyi bastards can't even get past my Iron Barrel Formation. Now I'm guarding such a big city. If I let you bastards from Anling County break the city, I won't be able to get over it by Tai Ming's brothers.
You laughed so hard?!" Feng Jin, whose face was covered with black smoke and turned even darker, spat out a mouthful of blood-laced saliva, and then cursed for a long time outside the city with a loud voice, which was quite impressive.
Ling Ran was scolding the street with an imposing manner, but then suddenly turned around in the next second, with a solemn expression and a low voice, he asked a hunched captain next to him who had just run up the city wall, "How is the situation in the city?"
The somewhat hunchbacked captain first raised his head and glanced at the situation outside the city, then leaned into Feng Jinkui's ear and whispered, "General Pi is right. There was a war outside the city, and something happened in the alleys of the wealthy families in the city."
, the guards from several families united and tried to attack the south city gate, but our people killed them all," he said coldly with a smile, "no one was left alive!"
"Well done," Feng Jinkui didn't look like his usual rough self when he spoke. He just frowned slightly and looked outside the city. "Cut off the heads and send them to those houses, and then you can remove most of the brothers in the city."
Take turns to go to the city wall, damn, who the hell leaked the news, how could the people from the Western Army in Anling County come so fast?!"
"After we came out of the mountains in the south, we fought all the way to Nancheng and there was a lot of noise. Although the whole way we passed was the territory of the Han family, it's hard to believe that the old ghost from the Baolingxi Army had an spy in it," the hunchbacked captain followed Feng Jinkuiwan.
He ran behind the stacked wall and looked out, "These people from the Anling Western Army came in a hurry. They only brought a few catapults that are easy to disassemble and assemble. They didn't have many large siege equipment. Otherwise, our city wall would
I’m afraid it’s hard for these thousands of people to resist until now.”
"Damn, what the hell is this called a 'one-point' catapult?!" Feng Jinkui glared and said angrily, "There are seven or eight masters who can handle swords. In order to resist their sneak attack on the city gate, I'm full of troubles."
I almost coughed up all the blood in my stomach!”
The hunchbacked captain didn't pay attention to Feng Jinkui's words. He just smiled and showed his white teeth, and then said, "How about sending a message to the general?"
"Pass a message!" Feng Jinkui slapped the old hunchback on the shoulder and shouted, "What did the general say when he left? Even if I lose my life here, I will never hold back the general.
We can’t lose this Nancheng! Remember, if I die, you’ll be there for me!”
His eyes were almost on fire. He stared at the Anling County soldiers who were outside the city wall and gradually moved to the moat to throw sandbags into the river under the rain of arrows. He said, "Damn, we have to run fast in the mountains these days."
It’s broken, but it’s still a little later than originally planned. If we delay the general further and fail to cut off the line as planned, it will delay the grand plan of the prefect, and the general will be punished accordingly!”
He almost gritted his white teeth, "It would be great if Li Mu's cavalry had not been sent by the general to leave the city. Why would they be in such an embarrassing situation now? You said he is guarding an army of 300,000 people, and a mere one of them can leave the city."
What's going on..."
"General, be careful what you say!" The smile on the hunchbacked captain's face melted instantly. He quickly reached out and slapped Feng Jinkui, looked around, then leaned into his ear and said, "I think your general will not be dragged down by our Nancheng."
You've lost your legs, but sooner or later you will be in trouble because of your mouth. You don't know that Anbu..." He couldn't help but look around before continuing, "Now he has been released from the prison by the prefect?!
"
Feng Jinkui snorted softly, but did not dare to say anything else. He just muttered some rubbish such as "I'm not afraid" and "I'm loyal".
The hunchbacked captain was also used to it. When he wanted to give some advice, he suddenly straightened up and looked outside, "No, there is movement!"
Feng Jinkui had already stood up like him, and even took a step to the wall to set up a pergola and looked into the distance. Then he laughed loudly, "It's the cavalry! Li Mu's people!!"
He rubbed his hands with a ferocious smile and said, "How about it? I'll just say that with the magistrate's courage, how could he need such a cavalry to accompany him to leave the city? How about that?!"
The hunchbacked captain glanced at Feng Jinkui and curled his lips silently.
Feng Jinkui shook his body and looked into the distance, and after a long time he murmured, "Damn, this Li Mu... is kind of interesting..."
The hunchbacked captain looked into the distance with the same complex expression, "This Li Mu was originally one of the five military commanders of Lijun Qingqi. How can he be mediocre when he is in charge of a thousand Qingqi? When we first entered Cangyan, I learned about him
I just thought that I had committed something and was demoted here as a captain by the old prefect. Now that I think about it, this is a foreshadowing for the current prefect to reuse this person. Sir, Lieutenant Li Mu may be used
In a few days, you will become a deputy general or even lead an army. When the time comes, you must control your mouth and don't make enemies for the general..."
"I know, I know, Old Feng, I am not a stupid pig, how can I not understand this?" Feng Jinkui smiled ferociously, jumped off the wall and ran towards the city wall, "Let's go, let's go, the brothers in the city are blessed, tell them
There is no need to go up the city wall, quickly form a formation and follow me out of the city, hurry up, hurry up," he shouted as he ran down the city wall, "When did our Taiming strong army hide in the city wall of Laoshizi and suffer such a big loss?!
