Chapter 116 (1/2)
The battle of guarding the city came to an end in the dawn, and the Beiyi people retreated to a safe place to have a rest again.
The Yanmen soldiers who had not slept all night were finally able to take turns to take a nap when the morning dew evaporated.
The sun had just climbed up the mountain and had not yet sent out a dazzling light. The horn sounded in the wild goose gate. The dozing soldiers woke up and trotted to the city tower.
There were two generals stationed in Yanmen. The general frowned and looked into the distance. Turning around, they exchanged eyes as if they had made up their mind, and only two-thirds of the soldiers who could defend the city under the city were in their heyday. They ordered: ”those who are 13 to 15 years old should stay in place and stand by, and the rest should go up to the city wall to prepare for war!”
Without going to the city wall to prepare for war, Fang Jiabao was secretly happy and looked around. There were less than ten people between the ages of 13 and 15, including Pei Shuo.
The soldiers ran past Pei Shuo and climbed the city tower one after another. Pei Shuo lowered his head and clenched his hand on his thigh into a fist, showing the green veins on the back of his hand.
The centurion and Pei Bo trotted down against the crowd, stood and counted the number: ”follow me.”
Step by step away from the north gate, they first met with several soldiers pushing the scooter. On the scooter, there were teenagers aged 13 to 15. Then they went to Yanmen together. When they stepped out of Yanmen, Fang Jiabao had a guess and an excited blush appeared on his face.
Pei Shuo had a bad feeling in his heart and asked, ”centurion, where are we going?”
”Why are you doing so much!” The centurion glanced at him, ”just follow me, not feed you to the tiger!”
”The enemy is at present. I'm young. I hope to live or die with Yanmen. I wish you all a pleasant journey.” Pei Shuo hugged his fist and ran away.
He used the lightness skill for fear that Peibo would react and catch him with a long hand, so he couldn't run away.
The centurion held his old blood in his heart, ”you bastard, come back to me!”
However, Pei Shuo ran away, vaguely hearing his cry, as if he had broken free from the cage.
”Centurion, take them away first. I'll go back.” Pei Bo was also helpless. Unexpectedly, Pei Shuo was stubborn in this joint eye, but he couldn't risk himself.
Fang Jiabao muttered in the crowd, isn't it good to live?
In order to prevent Pei Bo from catching up with him, Pei Shuo made a detour to the military doctor to help. He forgot Li Yongwu of Xiliu camp
When Li Yongwu mentioned him, the fox asked, ”aren't you with the centurion? Why did you come back?”
”Yes, I'm back. The centurion is still on his way. They didn't come back so soon.” Pei Shuo avoided the important and said lightly.
Li Yongwu narrowed his eyes and judged whether what he said was true or false.
Pei Shuo tried to move Li Yongwu with sincerity. Unfortunately, he was not fooled: ”no, you came back secretly!”
“……”
Pei Bo came up and ordered Pei Shuo's acupoints. He taught him not to move. Then he hugged his fist and explained to Li Yongwu: ”thank you for stopping. Pei Shuo suddenly ran back to help on the way. If it weren't for you, I don't know how to explain to the centurion.”
Li Yongwu's eyes wandered back and forth between Pei Bo and Pei Shuo, ”well, send him away. Boy, you are still young. When you grow up, you will be loyal to the country. It's not urgent. ” He finished with Pei Bo first and turned to mention Pei Shuo.
Poor Pei Shuo was hit with acupoints. He couldn't move and couldn't speak. He tried to use his eyes. Li Yongwu pretended not to see him.
Pei Bo took Pei Shuo and strode away, watching himself farther and farther away from Yanmen.
Very angry!
After leaving Yanmen, Pei Bo chased after the big army and said, ”young master, please don't blame me. You are the eldest son of the founding marquis. Although the Marquis once said that life and death are life and death in Yanmen, that's just a moment's angry words. At present, Yanmen is in danger. The general ordered the centurion to evacuate with soldiers under the age of 15 in order to keep the seedlings. As Li Yongwu said, ”you are still young. It's not your turn to go to the front.”
Still angry!
”Young master, you shouldn't me. I think you understand, but I'm still angry.”
Where is someone like you? Pei Shuo was so angry that he became a puffer fish that he couldn't make a voice and couldn't refute it.
The ridge road trembled faintly, and Peibo's voice stopped suddenly.
Pei Shuo is also worried. Is Yanmen broken?
He took Pei Shuo to hide behind the tree, fell down, and his ears were close to the ground to inquire about the situation: ”it's the sound of horses' hoofs. A team of cavalry is coming here. Young master, don't make a sound. If you promise to blink three times, I'll unlock your acupoints. ”
Pei Shuo Yiyan.
They hid behind the tree and squatted in the grass, with four pairs of eyes rolling.
Not long after, a team of well armored light riders came from juechen. The flying flag was written with ”Pei”, and the background color was dark to draw the crossbow machine.
It's Pei Jiajun, Pei Zhengwen, leader!
Pei Shuo and Pei Bo looked at each other. They walked out of the grass and stood on the roadside.
Pei Zhengwen reined in the reins. Peibu, peichuan and Peiyang behind him didn't expect to meet their young master here at this moment.
Unexpectedly, Pei Shuo pretended not to know them, reported his battalion and name with a fist, explained the reason for his presence here, and petitioned: ”thank you for the general's boxing love, and the existing support of general Pei can be inspiring. I ask to return to Yanmen, protect our country and die together with my brother!”
Pei Bo sighed secretly. He was so tired.
Pei Zhengwen stared at him for a long time and was sure, but he asked Pei Shuo to follow him and not to leave his sight.
……
The hard defending Yanmen finally waited for support. The Pei family army not only had light cavalry, but also brought crossbow soldiers and heavy crossbows.
Seeing the warning of the beacon fire, Pei Zhengwen immediately ordered troops to march in a hurry. When he arrived, he did not see the soldiers tired. He went to the city wall to take over his robe, and everything was in order.
The light crossbow shot and killed the Beiyi people climbing the ladder at close range, and set up bed crossbows and stone catapults to frighten the city.
Seeing that the situation was bad, the Beiyi people retreated like the tide. The general of Yanmen opened the gate and rode out with ease.
At first, Beiyi intended to pretend to be weak and lead them to open the city gate and then take advantage of the situation to kill them. However, he saw that the cavalry were all with tiger backs, waist, lute legs, crotch horses and majestic horses, and he was not soft in killing the enemy. He also saw that the weakest young man looked here and planned to use him as the starting point for breaking the array. He picked five alone.
This is not Yanmen's soldier!
The northern barbarians realized that Yanmen's support had arrived. As soon as the drum turned, they stopped fighting. Then they would not pretend to retreat and abandon their armor.
Pei Shuo followed Pei Zhengwen and rode all the way to the border city of Beiyi.
The border town is in the southwest of Ping'an Town, where groundwater emerges, with abundant water and grass. Nomadic Beiyi people live here and gradually form a town.
Pei Jiajun's light cavalry entered the city with evil spirit on his face and cold armor stained with blood. The arrival of Qingqi caused panic among the people in the border town. They shouted in a language Pei Shuo didn't understand and ran around. The ignorant children were taken away by their parents and closed their doors in a hurry.
Less than a cup of tea, the border town seemed empty.
”Let's go. Don't worry about them. Everyone is waiting in the city master's house.” Pei Zhengwen said.
Sure enough, as he expected, the shield soldiers in front of the city Lord's house lined up, and the archers pointed their bows at them. There were riflemen and swordsmen scattered among them. They were strictly guarded. The number of soldiers and guards in the city Lord's house was small, but they were well equipped and comparable to Pei's team.
”What would you do if you led the team into the siege main house?” Pei's father suddenly made a question to test Pei Shuo at this time.
Pei Shuo noticed that during their confrontation, the guards in front of the city Lord's house did not move, and the bungalows in the border town formed alleys, which extend in all directions. There is a hidden relationship between the two
Speaking of it, they chased the fleeing Beiyi generals and soldiers to come here, and there was no trace of them. Where did those people go? When they enter the city Lord's house, or hide in the streets and alleys, they spy on them in the dark like poisonous snakes. If they are a little slack, these poisonous snakes will bite off guard.
He secretly calculated in his heart. In an instant, Pei Shuo said: ”the soldiers are divided into two ways. On the one hand, they confuse each other with Xuanxiang array to attract their attention, and on the other hand, they surround each other with wild goose array. The speed of light riding is fast. Suddenly, it is bound to make them in a mess...”
Before he finished, Pei dad raised his hand to stop his words and ordered Pei Jiajun to obey Pei Shuo's orders.
Pei Shuo was stunned.
”I don't agree with you. I'll give you people to beat down the city Lord's residence to prove that your idea is right.” Said father Pei“ Are you willing to make a military order? ”
