Fatty Jin looked at Yin Bai and hesitated for a while. He really couldn't let go of his brother. They had gambled together, visited prostitutes together, fought together, and escaped from home together. They were life and death buddies, so Yin Bai turned to Wei Yan.
When the time came, I followed him without hesitation.
But at this time, when he was really facing life and death, Fatty Jin found that he was still afraid of death.
"Brother, I'm leaving. I'll come back to collect the body for you." As soon as Fatty Jin saw the rebels coming, he immediately raised his butt and ran away.
Wei Yan looked around and saw that including Yin Bai and his servants, there were only two thousand people left. They couldn't even break out of the rebels' ring and sneak into the city.
"Now, I can only give it a try and leave it to fate," Wei Yan said.
"We can't leave it to fate." Zhou Buji said solemnly.
Wei Yan looked at Zhou Buyi. Before, he knew many of Zhou Buyi's thoughts, or he could guess them after being reminded by him. But this time, he felt that Zhou Buyi had his own thoughts, but he completely guessed them.
Won't come out.
Zhou Buji watched the rebels coming towards this place, about a hundred paces away, and calmly said to Wei Yan: "General Wei, I gave you a great gift for making great achievements, and you came to follow me to quell the rebellion. Now you are quelling the rebellion."
If you don’t succeed, you will risk your life, so why don’t you leave? Don’t you regret it?”
Wei Yan clenched the long sword, smiled, and said loudly: "You have already given me this great gift. If we cannot win the war, it is because I, Wei Yan, am incompetent. Who is to blame? Although I, Wei Yan, want to make contributions, I rely on
Strength is not luck. Since your strength is not enough, why should you complain if you die?"
Zhou Buji nodded. He glanced behind him and saw that the only people left here were die-hard loyalists.
Zhou Buji ignored the rebels approaching. Eighty steps, seventy steps, fifty steps. He turned to Ma Jun and Zuo Bo and said, "Listen, you two, General Wei will kill him first and then die..."
"
Wei Yan's expression twisted and he didn't say anything.
Zhou Buji continued: "I will watch the battle from the rear. After General Wei dies, Uncle Zuo kills me..."
Uncle Zuo's brows jumped. Everyone stared at Zhou Buyi strangely.
"Yin Baihui rushed out, followed by Ma Jun. After General Wei died, he was captured and handed over to the rebels."
Yin Bai looked at Zhou Buyi, his mouth moved, and he waited quietly for Zhou Buyi's next words.
Everyone looked at Zhou Buyi. The rebels had reached a range of thirty steps. Zhou Buyi said firmly: "Only in this way can you gain the trust of the rebels. You two remember..."
The rebels had already attacked, Wei Yan was the first to kill them, while Ma Jun and Zuo Bo rationalized Zhou Buji's words.
He is the manager of the crafts workshop. He has a large number of confidential machinery and huge technical documents. It is impossible for the rebels not to be tempted. In other words, the rebels will not be willing to kill him.
When Wei Yan died, the morale of the army was in turmoil, and he had other ideas. It is really logical.
Zhou Buyi was a person who lived in the darkest corner of Liu Zhang's influence. He was so resourceful that the rebels would not keep him, so he might as well give it to Ma Jun and Zuo Bo as a gift.
Yin Bai seriously injured Mr. Yan. Although he did not die, the rebels must have hated him deeply. If Ma Jun captured Yin Bai, it would be a gift.
Wei Yan led his troops into a close encounter with the rebels. The sound of clashing weapons was heard. Zhou Buyi solemnly said to Ma Jun and Zuo Bo: "Remember, Shen Dan offended many local families in Chengdu when he organized the army. Shen Dan was originally a superior.
The mediocre people must be separated from the Chengdu family. In other words, the rebels are now divided into two factions, one is Chengdu and the other is the Shen family, and the Chengdu faction has complaints against the Shen family.
You just need to let these two families know that whoever breaks into the inner city first will be the biggest contributor to the uprising and will be able to take charge of Yizhou from now on and suppress the other faction at the same time. Do you understand?"
Zhou Buji looked at Ma Jun and Zuo Bo. They hesitated for a moment and finally nodded. Zhou Buji, Wei Yan, and Yin Bai were all willing to die to create opportunities for them. This deeply touched the two of them. They both swore in their hearts at the same time,
The mission must be accomplished.
Ma Jun followed Yin Bai and killed him. Uncle Zuo stood behind Zhou Buyi, holding the hilt of the sword tightly with his hand.
Zhou Bujie sighed, this was the last thing he could do. As long as the two factions in Chengdu had dissatisfaction and fought for power in the face of victory, the attack on the city would be greatly hindered and could be delayed for several days.
It's already been the eleventh day since I left the inner city. I hope my strategy can allow the inner city to last for more than nine days. Then Liu Wei, Fazheng, and Deng Zhi should arrive.
Zhou Busuo thought, but he also knew that even if the divorce was successful, it would be impossible to persist for nine days. The fall of the inner city was destined, and he was just trying his best.
Wei Yan led more than 1,000 troops and fought a bloody battle with 8,000 elite soldiers. More than 10,000 rebels also surrounded him. The guards around Wei Yan were quickly cleared away, and dozens of spears were thrust at Wei Yan.
Wei Yan's body was stained with blood, as if he had fought a battle. Everyone was staring at Wei Yan's side, including Yin Bai, Ma Jun, Zhou Buyi, and Zuo Bo. As soon as Wei Yan died, they would immediately act according to their plan.
Wei Yan fought to the death with all his strength, and a cold arrow shot out, hitting Wei Yan in the back. Wei Yan roared, broke the arrow shaft with his backhand, and killed a man who took the opportunity to surround him with a knife, and blood flowed out.
Zhou Busuo looked at it and closed his eyes. He thought he was a talented man. He had only fought once in his life, but he failed so miserably.
Zhou Buyi gave a sad smile. At this moment, Fatty Jin and a group of escaped craftsmen's servants suddenly ran back from the city gate on the ground. Zhou Buyi and Zuo Bo were confused. Could this be the case?
Has the guy’s conscience found out?
Fatty Jin was covered in dust and shouted to Zhou Buji: "It's bad, I can't get out, there are so many savages coming outside, so many of them, they are dead."
"What did you say?" Zhou Busuo asked urgently.
Fatty Jin said in fear: "I'm scared to death. There are so many savages outside, tens of thousands of them, wearing rags and animal skins. They are heading towards the south city gate. We have no way to go to the sky or the earth."
Fatty Jin lamented that there were rebels in front of him and savages behind him. It was really bad luck and he really didn't want to die.
Zhou Bujiu's eyes lit up, "Barbarians, they must be barbarians, but..." Zhou Bujiu thought for a while, and found that there were indeed barbarians living in the deep mountains and old forests along the Tuojiang River outside the south city of Chengdu, but they were very few in number.
There is no way there are tens of thousands of people.
But Zhou Buyi can no longer control that much. Now there is indeed a third party coming to kill, whether it is an enemy or a friend. It will be helpful to him.
If these barbarians are here to rob, they will definitely participate in the war in Chengdu. Then not only can our team take advantage of the chaos to fight out, the rebels will be threatened by the barbarians, and the inner city will not be lost for a while.
"Master Zhou, General Wei is about to die, should I kill you?" Zuo Bo asked.
"Kill the bastards." Zhou Buyi shouted, looking at Wei Yan who was still fighting in a bloody battle and in great danger. He turned around and shouted to the escaped craftsmen family members and servants: "Listen, there is a glimmer of hope now, don't you?
If you are willing to catch him, just wait here to die. If you want to live, follow me to rescue General Wei and fight out together."
The craftsmen and servants had no choice but to obey. Uncle Zuo drew out his sword and stabbed into the sky. Even if he was not strong, he should kill him first.
Ma Jun and Yin Bai also noticed the situation in the rear. At this time, they heard Zuo Bo shout: "Rescue General Wei."
Ma Jun reacted and did not kill Yin Bai. The two of them led the army towards Wei Yan. At this moment, the barbarian army entered the city and charged towards them with shouts. A female general in red was holding a red tasseled spear and had a cold eyebrow.
Head. Go in first.
The female general in red is none other than Xiao Furong.
Zhou Buyi happened to see Xiao Furong among the craftsmen. He was so excited that his heart almost jumped out of his chest. But in the end, his eyes turned red and he almost cried in the crowd.
"It's the reinforcements that are coming. It's the reinforcements that are coming. It's Mrs. Xiao who led the army to fight back."
Zhou Buji shouted, and then more and more soldiers shouted. The craftsmen were inspired and the rebels were frightened.
"The 50,000-strong army in Wuxi Nanzhong will follow the Shu lord Liu Zhang to quell the rebellion in Chengdu. The general will be here soon. Why don't you and the rebels just surrender?" Xiao Furong shouted immediately.
Zhou Bujie looked at Xiao Furong. After so many days of fear, the moment Xiao Furong appeared in red, at the most desperate moment, he saw the light of day most unexpectedly. His hard work for so many days was finally not in vain.
"If you are stubborn, kill."
Xiao Furong drank, picked up the red tassel gun and rushed in first, followed by the flower boy Zhu Rong, and Bao'er swung an iron whip and three or four rebel soldiers were knocked to the ground.
The so-called 8,000 elite soldiers organized by Shen Dan were completely useless in front of the powerful barbarian army fighting alone. The barbarian army was so powerful that it defeated 20,000 rebels in one fell swoop and took advantage of the situation to pursue them.
…………
Five miles away, while Liu Zhang was marching quickly, a ranger came galloping to report: "Reporting to my lord, the gates of Chengdu are wide open, and there are troops inside being besieged by the rebels. The forward Mrs. Xiao took advantage of the situation to rush in and has already engaged the rebels.
."
"What, Chengdu didn't fall?" Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.
This was indeed an unexpected surprise. Even if the barbarian army rushed from Jiangyang to Chengdu, the mountain road was rugged and the Southwest Silk Road had been abandoned for many years, making it difficult to travel. Under the leadership of the barbarian guide, it took ten days.
The Chengdu Incident had been huge since the beginning, with attacks from both inside and outside. Liu Zhang no longer had any hope that Chengdu could be defended, and it was only instinctive to send Xiao Furong as the vanguard.
However, he did not expect that Chengdu had not yet been completely controlled by the rebels. This was far beyond his expectation, and Liu Zhang was surprised and delighted.
In other words, Liu Xun, Huang Yue, a group of civil and military officials, and countless loyal people may still be alive.
Liu Zhang had never been so excited. He had imagined for countless times the scenario in which Huang Yue and Liu Xun were killed by the rebels, and he had to lead the barbarian army to attack the city of Chengdu, which was completely occupied by the rebels.
But none of this happened.
"The whole army speeds up and follow me to destroy the rebels."
There were still about five miles away from Chengdu, and Liu Zhang could no longer care about anything else. He was only afraid that if he slowed down for a moment, Huang Yue, Liu Xun and others would be in danger, so he drew his sword and led the entire army to speed towards Chengdu.
When Liu Zhang arrived at the gate of the city, Xiao Furong had just defeated the rebels. The rebels were like a frightened ant colony and fled towards the inner city in panic.
Liu Zhang saw Zhou Buyi, but had no time to pay attention at this time. The rebels had many soldiers and horses. Only a surprise attack could show the greatest effect. He immediately divided the soldiers and horses into five teams, led by five barbarian generals, and divided them into five groups to attack.
Inner city.
When Zhou Buji, Ma Jun, Zuo Bo, Wei Yan and Yin Bai saw Liu Zhang's figure, they all thought Xiao Furong's words of intimidation when she said "the general is right behind", but they were surprised when they didn't expect it to be true.
.
At this moment, Zhou Buyi was completely relieved. When Liu Zhang arrived, not to mention bringing back tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, even if he only brought back a few hundred people, with Liu Zhang's prestige, the world's fear of Liu Zhang could be frightened by Liu Zhang's appearance.
Thousands of rebels were scared to death.
Wei Yan led more than a thousand soldiers and horses behind him to follow. The craftsman soldiers were very excited when they saw victory in sight, especially Fatty Jin. He was really right to come back. Liu Zhang was resurrected. If he had not followed Yin Bai to join Wei Yan
, is a dead end.
Now, not only did he escape a disaster, but he was actually on the winning side, with a huge bounty and silver. Fatty Jin was so excited that his eyes were red. After fighting a smooth battle, he built up his momentum and randomly found a spear to follow the barbarian army.
, shouting and charging towards the inner city.
Zhou Buyi suddenly felt so weak that he fell to the ground. Everyone looked anxious these days. Only Zhou Buji smiled the most and looked the most relaxed. But these people didn't know that Zhou Buji had not had a good night's sleep these days.
I slept, racking my brains on how to delay the war.
At this young age, he was already exhausted.
"Mr. Zhou, what's wrong?" Uncle Zuo came over. Unlike Ma Jun, who operated machinery, Uncle Zuo didn't have much strength, so he couldn't fight well, so he didn't follow.
"Help me back to Elm Street, I'm so hungry." Zhou Bujie said miserably.
…………
In the inner city, after Zhang Ren entered the inner city, he was subjected to fierce attacks for several days, and the attacks were repeated. The troops under Zhang Ren were all local troops from the Fucheng area of Mianzhu, and were far inferior to the elite troops led by Deng Xian.
Shen Dan organized the attack in an orderly manner, which was different from Yin Yuan's haphazard command. Under the circumstances, even if Zhang Ren was more talented than Deng Xian, holding on for five days was already the limit.
The inner city originally had enough weapons, but after the past few days of consumption, all the arrows and tung oil have been lost.
"General, how long can we hold on?" Deng Xian asked Zhang Rendao.
Zhang Ren sighed and looked at the rebels under the city from a distance: "Did you see it? Since this morning, the rebels have been dividing their troops, which means they are close to controlling the city. In other words, Wei Yan should be gone. As long as Shen Yi's army
If we come back, we will definitely be defeated."
Deng Xian lowered his head.
The diesel fuel in Mufu has not been withdrawn. Huang Yue glanced at Mufu and seemed to have expected the same result. It was just that he committed suicide for the second time and needed more courage.
Wang Fu's son had been given coma drugs by Zhang Zhongjing. Wang Fu was annoyed by his son's crying for the past few days.
"General Zhang, just go ahead and kill the enemy. If the inner city falls, Huang Yue knows what to do. My husband has already gone. Huang Yue is willing to go with him. My child... is also willing." Huang Yue said to Zhang Rending
said.
Zhang Ren tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword and was unable to protect even orphans and widows. This was a shame for a soldier, not to mention the wife and children of his lord, which was even more humiliating.
However, now he only has one option left: a bloody battle.
