Chapter 26: The Siege of Jinyang

Chapter 26: Siege of Jinyang

In the past few days, the Xiongnu soldiers outside the city continued to launch waves of attacks. After one wave was finished, another wave came up again, and there was no way for people to have enough rest time. Liu Kun just stayed on the top of the city and never came down.I don’t know how many times everyone persuaded him to go down to the top of the city to rest, but he didn’t listen. Basically, he would block wherever he came out of danger. Ran Zhan hadn’t closed his eyes for several nights. The Huns who climbed up to the top of the city were nothing. Come and kill one by one, I'm afraid that those cavalry archers who are constantly guerrilla under the city are just too easy to hide with open guns and hard to defend against hidden arrows.

Liu Qun manages the distribution of all supplies, and Liu Yan is constantly strengthening the tight guard in the city.Linghu Sheng is also training the militia, assigning troops to replace the sergeants at the top of the city, and everyone is busy.I also asked Xiaolu to gather all the maidservants in the mansion to wash and mend clothes for the soldiers, and take care of the wounded. The city lord's mansion has become a concentration center for the wounded. I told Liu that the women in the city should participate in helping the wounded. Liu While tightening the vigilance in the city, Yan also released my news, so women came to help every day, and many people also took the initiative to go to Linghu Shengna to join the army. After all, once the city was destroyed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xu Run also displayed his celebrity demeanor very well. Every day he either played the piano or played songs, and did not disturb others. What else can I do besides shaking my head?Fortunately, other people are busy defending the city. One more person is not too many, and one person is missing is quite a lot. These common people are also aware of it, so no one is in the mood to pay attention to him for a while.

outside the city

Shi Hu looked at the city that had been unable to take it for several days, and felt a little anxious. After all, he was only under 16 years old, and it was the first time he led troops to attack the city. recognition.The future Emperor Wu of Zhao Taizu, the biggest bloody executioner of the Han nationality, had his first fierce battle against Liu Kun, a famous general of the Western Jin Dynasty. In the fight, Liu Kun was only able to defend, and I was also besieged in the city.And this person's ferocity and brutality will grow with age, and his personality will become more and more brutal...

Shi Hu glanced at the soldiers who looked a little tired after attacking the city for several days, and there was no emotion in his eyes. The soldiers were sweating coldly when they saw Shi Hu like this. Did the little general think of something else? Is there a more vicious way?

"Listen to my military order! Withdraw all the troops from the four gates. They will not escape. If they want to escape, they can escape before we come. The reason they are resisting desperately now is because they don't want to leave at all, so they will definitely follow us. It has been exhausting for a long time, we are going to catch the refugees tonight, women, you can enjoy them as you like, but don’t kill them when you run out, I have use for these living refugees, ha ha.”After Shi Hu finished speaking, his gaze towards Jinyang City became even colder...

Noon the next day

I came to Liu Kun, a city wall defended by Ran Zhan, gave them and the soldiers a change of clothes and food, and by the way helped the defenders bandage their wounds and transported the seriously wounded back to their homes.

This is the time when everyone eats, and only at this time of the day can we feel alive.From yesterday afternoon to today's noon, the Huns at Simen retreated a lot, and they didn't even attack again. Some soldiers were very happy, thinking that the Huns knew our strength and determination and had already retreated. Some soldiers felt that the Huns The retreat is too bizarre and not optimistic.Fortunately, everyone's morale is still very strong.

Liu Kun put on the white shirt I brought, and sat on the city wall with Ran Zhan. After days of exhaustion and killing, the two of them were almost at their limit. Ran Zhan drank the multigrain porridge I handed over, and took big bites. Looking at the pancakes, thanks to me flashed in his eyes.I watched the two gobble it up, and for some reason, my heart became more stable.

Suddenly there was a lot of sand and dust in the distance outside the city. It was not until I got closer that I realized that it was refugees surrounded by groups of Huns soldiers. There were men, women, children, and children in their arms. Babies, the Xiongnu cavalry took whips and savagely waved at the unarmed refugees, driving these poor people to Jinyang City.

The hearts of the soldiers and militiamen on the top of the city were all entangled. When these refugees saw the city, they no longer needed the Huns to drive them away, so they all rushed to the city gate. They wanted to live, crying The sound of the ground, the miserable screams of children and babies, and the screams and fears of women, I couldn't help crying for a long time, I really wanted to let them in...

Xiaolu was crying too weakly, it was too miserable, as long as the Xiongnu soldiers behind saw someone retreating, they would hack to death with a knife.Where is the way of life, only Jinyang City, but once the door is opened, there will be an army of the Huns, so vicious...

Liu Kun's face became more and more livid. This man is a famous patriotic general in history, and he still cared for the people. Looking at these refugees, his heart was bleeding, but the decision he made now would affect the entire society. The lives of the people in Jinyang City and all the soldiers, these unarmed ordinary people, what should we do?

Ran Zhan's heart was also twitching. He was the leader of the begging army, and he knew very well what kind of life the refugees lived, especially the refugees with their families. In order to survive, they no longer have any dignity. As long as they can live , as long as the child can live, why not?

Some of the soldiers resisting the city gate had already begun to become agitated, and it was impossible for anyone to remain indifferent to such a situation. . . . . .

"Ran Zhan, you go to the gate of the city, who dares to leave his post without authorization, and face the Fa on the spot!" Liu Kun's face was distorted. How much perseverance and determination does it take to issue such an order?

Ran Zhan didn't say anything, because he knew that Liu Kun's decision was correct, so he immediately led a group of people down the city wall to the city gate. The cold sword made those sympathetic people shrink back...

With my back facing the thick wall, I sat paralyzed on the city wall. How could my heart endure such torment? Even with a lifetime of experience, I have never experienced such misery. I was crying uncontrollably. Xiaolu was crying next to me, calling mother faintly in a sad voice..., helpless, desolate, the utter wail that resounded from the sky, my heart was running away, I couldn't face all of this...

Liu Kun grabbed me, hugged me, and let me look at the miserable refugees below. I struggled, and I didn't want to watch it. Liu Kun grabbed my face without mercy, and let me look directly below. In such a miserable situation, I can only close my eyes tightly, I hate Liu Kun so much...

"Mingyue, look, these are the people of the Jin Dynasty. As a princess, you have the most noble blood, but you have never known the sufferings of the people, and you have never really experienced what life is better than death. You have superhuman wisdom. Maybe one day you will do something for the whole world, but first you must carefully show me how these refugees died!" Liu Kun's voice became louder and louder, I slowly opened my eyes, The tears couldn't stop flowing, and I saw Xiaolu looking at me with tears, and she didn't intend to step forward to help me out, her eyes were exactly the same as Liu Kun's...

I didn't struggle any more, I slowly opened my eyes and looked at the refugees below the city. That horrific scene will be deeply imprinted in my life, and my body trembled uncontrollably. . . . . .

"Everyone in the city listen carefully, leave your children behind, we will raise them for you, all the adults turn around, do you see the Hun soldiers behind, hold them back, let us open the city to receive your children If I see a grown-up wanting to storm the city gate, then we will no longer accept these children..." Liu Kun's words were cold and emotionless, but they did play a role.

The refugees heard the orders repeated by the sergeants on the top of the city, a gleam of hope flashed in their desperate eyes, the parents were saying goodbye to the children, all the adults, whether they had children or not, all turned around, unarmed They looked at the Xiongnu cavalry who were showing off their might, and they no longer had any fear. . . . . .

I watched these refugees go to death, my heart is already broken, watching them go to death to attack the Hun cavalry, just to buy time for the people in the city to accept the children, I hate it, damn it I yelled hysterically: "I! Princess Sima Mingyue! I swear to heaven, I will pay for my debts with blood, and I will never die!!!!!!!" My red eyes and eyes seemed to have been drained of all strength. body, fell into Liu Kun's arms, and I fainted...

The Huns didn't expect such a thing to happen. They were all impressed by the little general's ingenious plan, and they wanted to wait for the city gate to open and go in to burn, kill and loot. Made a bit of a mess.

Shi Hu looked at the scene in front of him without any emotional fluctuations. For him, war is about killing people. When it comes to the battlefield, anyone who can use it, including people's psychology, as long as they can win, it doesn't matter how many people die and how many people die. how to die...

Just as he rushed into the refugees to enjoy the pleasure of massacre, he heard my roar, Shihu suddenly looked up and looked in the direction of the sound, and a little girl came into view, although it was only a vague appearance. Shi Hu was already shocked. As a young man, he had already seen too many women, but when he saw Mingyue, he still whispered in his heart: "It's really beautiful...or a princess...hehe..."

For three days and three nights, I was still in a coma, which made many people anxious...

Xiaolu has never left me a single step. Since I said that, Xiaolu has taken good care of me, never letting anyone change my clothes for me, and taking care of all my daily life and food. Of course, my secret has also been She knew that when she saw that little thing, besides shyness, there was a hint of surprise on the girl's face...

When I woke up, I found that all the clothes on my body had been changed, and only Xiaolu was by my side.Seeing Xiaolu's shy look, I said helplessly, "You know everything?"

"Hmm" Xiaolu's voice was very soft.

I looked at her helplessly, but there was no killing intent in my heart. Looking into her eyes, my own thoughts drifted elsewhere.

Seeing my helpless look, Xiaolu immediately said obediently: "Young master... well, princess, no one else will know, Xiaolu is willing to serve you all his life."

Only I know the wry smile in my heart, and I smiled slightly at Xiaolu, and slowly said: "If others find out, I will die, and you can't live, do you understand?"

"I understand", when Xiaolu heard what I said, the only worry in her heart has been dispelled. What she is most afraid of is that the people in front of her will not want to see her again. As for the others, she is willing to keep this secret for the rest of her life. This is only her and him. The secret I just knew...
