Chapter 528 (1/2)
Jiangcheng was originally the last city on the border between the state of Qin and the state of Dachang. However, this city is not as high and thick as Yantian City, so it can only be regarded as a small city. However, the city's effect on the later Qin Dynasty was actually just a beacon tower. Therefore, Jiangcheng can often be occupied by Dachang and taken back by the later Qin Dynasty. The residents in Jiangcheng are not necessarily Han people, on the contrary, there are many people living in Nanman.
When Dachang army invaded houqin, it was the Jiangcheng city that was first occupied. For the residents of Jiangcheng, it was already a matter of habit. They also lived their own lives as usual. Many local businessmen even saw this time and sold the wounded medicine or grain and grass they usually hoarded to the troops who had just entered the city.
Today, the general of Dachang who is guarding Jiangcheng is Meng Jie, an unknown little general in Dachang state. At this time, he is frowning in his own city guard's house and feels headache. Two days ago, the second prince, who had just set out from Jiangcheng, passed by Jiangcheng in a mess and spent the night. The news from the second prince surprised Meng Jie.
A hundred thousand troops! A hundred thousand troops! Even in the performance of Tiancheng, the whole army is destroyed! Although the second prince recalled thousands of soldiers one by one, many of them lost their weapons, and there was no way to continue fighting! Is the post Qin army now powerful to this point? But why were eight cities easily captured by Dachang army before?
When the second prince came to Jiangcheng yesterday, he was probably ashamed, but he did not tell Meng Jie how he lost 100000 troops. Therefore, Meng Jie is very afraid of the army of the post Qin army. There is no doubt that the post Qin army, which destroyed 100000 Dachang troops, will take advantage of the victory to pursue and attack Jiangcheng. There are less than 500 garrisons in Jiangcheng. How can the small Jiangcheng resist the tiger wolf division.
It is not that Mengjie didn't want to lead troops to retreat before, but he gave up the city to the enemy without fighting a battle. Even if he returned to Dachang safely, he was afraid that only the sword of the criminal Department of Dachang state could meet Meng Jie. It is certain that we can't take the road of retreating first. However, if we stay here, menjie does not have the confidence to be able to resist the attack of the other side. Maybe he can't resist the first World War and will be defeated by others. Meng Jie's loyalty to Dachang does not mean that he is willing to pay the price of his life.
”What? What to do? ” Mengjie walked around the small assembly hall. Since the second prince left with the defeated army, Mengjie ordered the whole city to be on guard. All the gates of the city were closed and ready to fight at any time. Although there has been no news of the enemy's attack up to now, Meng Jie's heart seems to be hanging by a thread, and he can't go up or down. Thinking of this, Meng Jie can't help but feel a little angry. This time he asked someone to find a relationship to come to Jiangcheng. Originally, he was trying to gain some credit, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing. The second prince is also. Go and go. He took all the thousands of defeated soldiers away! Although those defeated troops have no morale, they can stay in Jiangcheng, how much can make Meng Jie's heart have some bottom, right!
”General!” In the heart of Meng Jie, when he was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard a sound of shouting and drinking from the outside of the assembly hall, which made Meng Jie's heart jump suddenly and turn around mechanically. I saw a soldier running in from outside with sweat on his head. When he saw Meng Jie, he knelt down directly and said, ”general! City, find the enemy in the north of the city
At last! Mengjie heart a sigh, should come, hide is unable to hide, after hearing this news, Mengjie even more calm than before. Taking a deep breath, Meng Jie gave a big drink: ”come on! Get my armor and weapons! And, order the whole army! Gather at the north gate of the city! Resist the enemy
”Here it is As the saying goes, generals are brave. However, the boldness that Meng Jie erupted at this time shocked several soldiers nearby. When they just heard that there was an enemy attack, their timidity disappeared. They all bowed to Meng Jie in high spirits and went down to carry out Meng Jie's orders.
After everything is ready, Mengjie takes the garrison to the north of the city. People on the streets along the way saw it, but there was no panic at all. Those who should go shopping and do business still set up stalls on the street, as if the battle to be carried out outside the city had nothing to do with them.
