C185 (1/2)
Actually, this was a farce. One side was for money, while the other side was for what was known as ”guarding the land and being responsible”.
As long as the act was done, one side would happily return to the military camp with enough money, while the other side could also brazenly announce that the city guards had done a great service and wait for the promotion to become rich.
It was a pity that a fool had thrown a huge rock at him.
None of them were on guard. The few Jin Soldier s all laughed, and didn't even pay attention to what was going on up above.
In the end, with a ”bang”, a Jin Soldier's brain immediately ruptured, and he laid on the ground, unable to move.
In a split-second, the scene fell into a deathly silence. Everyone on both sides was stunned by this scene.
”Who … who dares to be so bold?” The first one to react was on the city wall, and the one who heard it wasn't Hu Gongdao, but the Liu County Order who only appeared once.
”Attack, attack!” Immediately after, Dujisilian flew into a rage and issued the real attack command!
”Kill!” In the midst of their furious roars, four to five hundred Jin Soldier's were like wolves and tigers as they charged across the suspension bridge and started climbing up the cloud ladder.
Thus, an even more unbelievable scene occurred.
There were originally two hundred or so people wearing Song Jun uniforms, a dozen or so yamen runners, a hundred or so commoners and even some onlookers atop the city walls.
All these people did not resist at all. The moment Jin Soldier climbed onto the city wall, they started to run with their lives on the line.
A miracle in the history of wars had happened just like that. A city of Song Kingdom, when attacked by several hundred Jin Soldier s, wasn't even able to hold on for three minutes before the great door creaked open.
From start to finish, other than the unlucky Jin Soldier, who had his head exploded, there were no other casualties.
The city head was occupied, so at least two hundred Jin Soldier people rushed in, but Dujisilian did not move, he was still riding on his warhorse, standing in the front room, with a disdainful smile on his face, he happily looked at the opened city gate.
”Lord Duji, Lord Duji …” Amidst the wailing and yelling, seven or eight people were escorted out by Jin Soldier, and among them was shockingly the unlucky Hu Gongdao.
Above the city gate, the Liu County Order had actually lost the freedom to move.
Around the city gate tower, all of them were taken over by Jin Soldier.
But strangely, there was not a single Jin Soldier who entered the city gate tower. There seemed to be a tacit understanding between the two sides, as they both wished to keep the situation within a certain range.
As a result, Dujisilian did not look up at the Liu County Order, but instead looked at Hu Gongdao playfully, and shouted: ”Where is the culprit?”
”My lord!” Hu Gongdao crawled in front of Dujisilian as he cried, ”This little one does not know, this little one does not know! This little one is ordering people to investigate, once we confirm who is the culprit, we will immediately send it to Master.”
Dujisilian bellowed: ”What's the use of that, even if General Ben were to tear him to shreds, my soldiers will not be able to come back to life!”
In fact, Jin Soldier, whose head had been beheaded, was not dead yet. He was already sitting in the carriage and groaning with the support of his companions.
Hu Gongdao did not dare point it out, and said: ”This official will not investigate, but a spy from the Liaoren had infiltrated the group, to the point of causing casualties among our allies. This official is guilty, and is willing to give three hundred silver taels to the family of my friend, please accept them! ”
Jin Soldier shouted, ”Can three hundred silver taels buy one's life?”
”Three hundred liang is naturally not enough!” Hu Gongdao's eyelids jumped, and he said: ”This county's Liu County Order Lord also feels very guilty, and is also willing to offer three hundred silvers!”
The two of them together were worth six hundred taels of silver. It was just that they did not know if they would actually be able to pay out of their own pockets.
”Humph!” Dujisilian groaned.
Hu Gongdao was so scared that his entire body started trembling, and he quickly said: ”I am Ding Yuan, you are willing to offer three hundred silver.”
