The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms - Vol 10 Chapter 299
Popular recommendation:
That night, Wen Pin, Yu Jin, and Han Ji discussed in the account again.
After discussing for a long time, Wen Pin and Han Ji were helpless.
Wen Pin pondered for a while, then asked Han Ji, “Jun’s house is blocked by Yang, only a hundred miles away from Luyang, but I don’t know if Jun has any old acquaintances in the city?”
Like Wenpin, Han Ji is also from Nanyang. His family is in Duyang County, and Wenpin’s family is in Wan County. Yizewan County is far away from Li Luyang, and the most important thing is that Erlai Wenpin has been away from home for a long time. He followed his father Wenzhi to Xunzhen many years ago, so he has nothing in Luyang. Friendship.
As soon as Wen Ping’s words came out, Han Ji knew what he meant and asked, “Does the captain want to find an intern in the city?”
“Yes, that’s exactly what I meant.”
Han Ji said: “If you talk about old acquaintances, there are one or two, but Yang Hong and Ji Ling are closely guarded, how can they get in touch with the city?”
This is indeed a problem. Yang Hong and Ji Ling are very closely guarded at the city head, and the two of them have never been under the city wall. Moreover, Wen Pin and others once climbed the watchtower to look inside the city, and also saw that the inner and alleys of the city were all blocked. The soldiers and horses of Yang Hong and Ji Ling were managed militarily. There were soldiers inside and outside to take care of them. A high platform was built at the intersection of the streets. There were always soldiers on the platform to supervise the surrounding area, and there were often soldiers patrolling the streets and alleys. , It is really difficult to get in touch with Han Ji’s old friends in the city, and then let his old friends organize people to start civil unrest. The three discussed for a while, but there was no good solution. This policy of clerical employment can only be temporary.
Yu Jin’s dark face showed a resolute look, he straightened his waist, looked at Wen Pin and Han Ji, and said, “I heard that the brave who meet on a narrow road wins! Although the city is still lost today, our army has already been besieged a lot. Today, the camp outside the city has been pulled up again. Today, I am attacking the city in a big way. Although I still failed to get the top of the city, the moat has at least been filled by our army! I expect the morale of the defenders will be low now! If you select hundreds of elite dead soldiers from the entire army, and lead them with brave generals, and then make a fierce attack, you will definitely be trapped!”
Wen Ping Yue heard the meaning of Yu Jin’s words, and said stunned: “Wen Ze, choose the elite dead soldiers, use the brave generals to rule them, and then make a fierce attack. What do you mean by this? Do you mean it?”
Yu Jin is not tall, nor is his stature very strong, but now he is kneeling straight on the seat, his face is full of Shen Yi, but he looks very majestic, and he said sanely: “When I attack the city again tomorrow, I will. I would like to lead the dead and capture the city for you!”
Wen Pin and Han Ji looked at each other.
Wen Pin said, “Wen Ze, how can this be done!”
As soon as Yu Jin was put under Xun Zhen’s tent, Xun Zhen appointed him as a personal soldier officer, and it was evident that he loved and valued him. This time against Luyang, it was the first time that Yu Jin was released to fight by Xun Zhen. If Yu Jin made a mistake in this first battle, Wen Ping was the main general of this battle, and he was worried that he would not be able to explain to Xun Zhen.
However, it is precisely because this battle is Yu Jin’s first battle that Yu Jin himself wants to fight this battle well.
He originally thought that he and Wenping would join forces with more than 4,000 troops to fight a Luyang county town, which had already been disorganized as expected. Especially when the main force of Xun Zhen’s personal lineage was giving them a boost in Kunyang not far away, this battle should be better fought. As a result, I didn’t expect that this small Luyang county would be so difficult to fight!
After a few days of fighting, he still couldn’t fight, but after Han Ji came to help with a new type of hair stone car and Xun Zhen’s instructions to them personally, he still couldn’t fight.
Yu Jinyin couldn’t hold back for a long time!
He got up from the seat, stood in the tent, and said proudly to Wen Pin and Han Ji: “The captain thinks it’s impossible, is it because he is worried that something will happen to me? If so, the captain does not have to! I dare to ask for it The two gentlemen expressed my thoughts: Why did you ask for the chariot to release the ban? It is known that Luyang is an important town in the north of Nanyang, and why did the ban ask the chariot, the captain of the school, to attack Luyang? , to honor the ancestors! Since I seek fame and fame, and I am afraid of danger, how can there be such a thing in ancient and modern times? Ma leather is wrapped in a body, worthy of the body of a seven-foot husband, a forbidden wish! If I attack the city tomorrow, if I die in battle, I will ask for it myself. , I have nothing to do with the school captain! The only thing to ask is that the two of you slaughtered Luyang, and when they were still worshipping the chariots, they dared to bother the two of you to report to the chariots, and they said that they were forbidden to report the grace of the chariots and riders! And no regrets.”
In the current trend, even scholars are not afraid to talk about utilitarianism, and most of them pursue utilitarianism, create merit, honor one’s own body, and honor their ancestors. Pin and Han Ji looked down on him, but they were all moved.
Yu Jin’s tone slowed down, smiled, and said, “But there is one thing, let’s talk about it first, if we attack the city tomorrow, if I can break Luyang County, the first thing to do is mine, Jun. The two of them won’t be able to grab it!”
This sentence is obviously a joke.
Although Han Ji is a scholar, he has avenged his father and brother in the past, killed the enemy, and used his first sacrifice to his father’s tomb, but he has a chivalrous temperament. Influenced by the ban, he sighed: “It’s a good one to get a name right away!” Yu Wenpin said, “The commander has this ambition. To attack the city tomorrow, I think it’s okay to follow the commander’s proposal!”
Wen Pin thought to himself: “I have heard for a long time that there are many heroes in Mount Tai, Zang dominates the generals, and is a man of integrity, while Wen Ze is generous and heroic, and he is also a hero!”
He was unfamiliar with Yu Jin before, but through these contacts, he has discovered that Yu Jin is indeed an extraordinary person, a person with far-reaching aspirations.
If nothing else, just from the two things that Wenpin saw with his own eyes, we can see that Yu Jin is very different from other officers.
One thing is, after breaking Ji Ling’s camp outside the city the day before yesterday, Yu Ban’s handling of the seized goods.
Leading soldiers to fight, it is the days when the knife licks blood, the generals are inevitably killed in battle, maybe one day they will be killed on the battlefield, they must be entertained in time, so these generals and officers who lead the troops, every time they win a battle After the battle, he would inevitably deduct a lot of the things he seized to satisfy his various desires, but Yu Jin did not take any of the things he seized, but sealed them up and handed them over to him after he took down the camp outside the city. Went for a job. ——This is the first time Wenpin has seen such a clean and honest officer.
At the same time, Yu Jin was also not lustful, not rich, not lustful, but he was willing to come out from the good position of being the captain of the personal soldiers under Xun Zhen’s account to lead the troops to fight. What did he do? Just like what he said to himself just now, he can only do it for fame.
One thing is that Wen Ping felt that he was already strict in governing the army, but two days ago he went to the camp of the forbidden army and found out that the army was even more strict. The generals and soldiers of Yu Jinsuo’s department, or his former colleagues in Xun Zhen’s personal army, or Xun Zhen later allocated to him, but whether it was his old colleagues or Xun Zhen’s new ones, he All are treated equally, and there is no favoritism. Even a general or a soldier, even if he commits a small crime, he will punish him severely. During the inspection two days ago, Wen Pin saw a colleague of Yu Jin who was the captain of Xun Zhen’s personal soldiers, but just because he laughed loudly, Yu Jin ordered Sima to enforce military discipline, and he violated the military discipline. He was beaten with dozens of military sticks on the grounds that he was not allowed to make noise during the middle period. This is simply not disrespectful, no favoritism, but ruthless.
This kind of strict and draconian military governance shows two points. First, he has no idea of winning people’s hearts. Second, it is to be able to act like an arm when fighting, and what is the ultimate purpose of these two points? ? Naturally, it is for the sake of fame.
Knowing that he was forbidden to go out to lead troops to fight, and now that he was determined, Wen Ping did not say more, and agreed to his request.
…
That night, Wenpin passed the order and set a reward to the whole army to recruit the dead.
About 400 to 500 people signed up, from which 200 elites were selected.
In addition to giving a heavy reward on the spot, another promise was made. After the city was conquered, there was a reward, and they slaughtered the sheep and slaughtered the cattle and let them eat a big meal.
The next day, the siege of the city began, and the first wave of catapults, crossbow arrows, bows and arrows, rockets, etc. were still used to hit the city head, and then Wenpin ordered that the whole army pressed on and launched offensives on the east and north sides of Luyang County.
It was almost noon, and it was observed that the defense of the guards at the head of the city was gradually weakening, and Yu Jin invited Wen to fight.
Wen Pin said, “Let’s wait a little longer.” The order was passed down, ordering to send additional troops outside the east city wall to strengthen the attack on the east city wall.
The reinforcements arrived outside the eastern city wall not long after, and joined the siege operation.
Looking upstairs, Wenpin pays careful attention.
After waiting for more than an hour, Wenpin noticed that the number of guards on the east city wall had increased significantly, and two of them were surrounded by many soldiers, guessing that they were Yang Hong and Ji Ling, but recalled Yu Jin and said: : “Captain!”
Wearing heavy armor, Yu Jin gave Wen Pin a military salute, nodded slightly to Han Ji, who was beside Wen Pin, turned around, and went down to the watchtower. The two hundred dead men were all sitting and waiting under the watchtower. Yu Jin took the knife in his hand and said briefly, “Follow me!”
In the siege of the past few days, the main attack was on the east of the city. The east wall was damaged the most, but because of the most serious damage, the defending force of the east wall was also the strongest. Therefore, today Yu Jin and the two hundred died. The target of the soldiers’ attack was not the east wall, but the north wall.
The two hundred dead soldiers stood up, and after finishing their formation, Yu Jin led them to the northern city wall.
Wenpin, who was standing high on the tower, commanded the siege troops on the east wall to continue their fierce attack, and commanded the archers on the north wall to cover Yu Jin and the two hundred dead men, while watching the actions of Yu Jin and others. .
Although the city has not been taken down so far, the moat outside the city has been filled in, and the deer village has also been pulled out, so the road leading to the city wall is unimpeded. Outside the northern city wall, two ladders are now built. Yu Jin led the two hundred dead soldiers at a very fast speed. After crossing the moat, he braved the rain of arrows on the city, and passed through the moat and the city wall. The more than 1,000 soldiers who were attacking the city rushed to the vicinity of the city wall. Wen Pin saw that after a short stay, Yu Jin and the two hundred dead men were divided into two teams, and immediately entered the two ladders. The other soldiers who were originally attached to the ladder all got down from the ladder and gave the two ladders to Yu Jin and the two hundred dead soldiers.
Wen Pin didn’t know that Yu Ban was in the team of the two teams of dead men, but he was far away and could take both teams of dead men into his eyes.
“Pass our military orders, beat the drums, and cheer for the captain!”
Following Wenpin’s order, dozens of war drums around the watchtower were struck. The sound of the attack was the sound of battle, which was short and dull, as if it merged with the heartbeat. The sounds of dozens of war drums converged in one place, and even the shouts of thousands of soldiers from both sides above and below the two city walls could not cover it up, making the blood of those who heard it boiled. Looking up at the sky, the sky is blue and cloudless; Wenpin is looking at the battlefield, the enemy and I are fighting, and the blood has already dyed the city wall red.
The two teams of dead men faced the arrows shot by the city head, and under the urging of the drums, they filed up the ladder.
Yu Jin was on the cloud ladder on the left, with his knife in his mouth, he stepped up the ladder first.
With the city that has been guarded for a few days, most of the guarded items prepared in advance in the city, such as wood, rolling stones, etc., are mostly damaged, and the boiling oil, gold juice, etc. In the city for a long time, the guards were exhausted, and because the east city wall was violently attacked just now, the guards at the head of the northern city were transferred a few times, and the garrison strength was weakened a lot, and Yu Jin and the two hundred dead soldiers. On the side, not only are they all wearing armor and are not afraid of arrows, but these two hundred dead soldiers are selected, all of them are strong and agile.
Unable to defend, they quickly rushed to a place not too far from the city’s head, – the nearest Yujian was just a stone’s throw away from the city head.
Wen Ping said his heart to his mouth, fixed his eyes, and watched from afar.
However, he saw that the general of the city, with more than a hundred soldiers, hurriedly rushed from the direction of the east city wall.
“It should be Ji Ling.” Han Ji said.
Wen Pin stared at Yu Jin and other figures on the ladder, but did not speak.
The defender who arrived just in time was indeed Ji Ling.
Ji Ling’s arrival in time, and the hundreds of new troops he brought to join the defense, blocked Yu Jin and others’ upward charge.
Yu Jin grabbed the cloud ladder with one hand and the straight sword in his mouth with the other, ignoring that the arrows shot on the armor had gathered like hedgehogs, and shouted: “Like last night, the captain was rewarded, the first one, the second reward. Ten!” Inspiring the fighting spirit of the dead under his feet, he climbed up bravely.
He swept over with the mechanically mobilized wolf-tooth slap, Yu Jin shrank his head and curled up, avoided it, and continued to climb; a bucket of gold juice fell, and the stench was foul, Yu Jin couldn’t dodge all, he covered his breath and continued Climbing up; several spears stabbed from the stack, Yu Jin waved his knife to break them up, and continued to climb. An enemy general’s head poked downwards, and then he threw an iron halberd towards Yu Jin.
The short halberd was coming very fast, and Yu Jin couldn’t dodge in time, and was hit by the hand that grabbed the ladder.
With a cry of pain, Yu Jin couldn’t help letting go of his hand. He would grab a spear from the guard next to him, stab him down, and hit Yu Jin’s chest.
Yu Jin couldn’t hold it any longer and fell from the ladder.
Looking upstairs, Wen Pin was shocked to see the person on the top of the ladder on the left fall from the ladder, falling from mid-air. ——He knew at this time that this person was Yu Jin. Wen Pin hurriedly ordered the soldiers under the northern city wall to rescue Yu Jin.
Before the command was finished, Yu Jin fell to the ground.
Han Ji said in horror: “Ah, this is…! Captain, save the captain quickly!”
Not long after the words fell, Wen Pin and Han Ji saw that Yu Jin, who fell from the height of Zhang Yu and fell to the ground, actually stood up staggeringly. Wen Pin and Han Ji looked at each other. Wen Pin came back to his senses and ordered in a hurry, “Hurry up and bring the captain back!”
——How can you get up when you fall to the ground at such a high height? Not surprisingly. One, when Yu Jin fell, the dead man on the cloud ladder dragged him several times in succession, reducing the momentum of his fall. Two, he was wearing thick clothes and armor, which could also resist the impact of falling. Therefore, after he fell to the ground, although he fell unconscious for a while, he quickly woke up.
It can be said that Yu Jin escaped from death this time, but what Wen Pin and Han Ji never expected was that he would not retreat, he just stood there for a while, and then he ran to the cloud ladder again, obviously To fight again.
Wen Ping and Han Ji’s discoloration changed, and they fell from the sky. They must have suffered physical injuries. If it was up to him to beat them again, I’m afraid their lives would be in danger. Without waiting for Han Ji to do anything, Wen Ping hurriedly ordered: “Ming Jin, withdraw the troops! Summon the captain back!”
Wenpin was the commander-in-chief. Once he gave the order to withdraw the troops, even though Yu Jin was a deputy general, he had to obey. But at this moment, everyone suddenly heard a loud noise, and all turned their eyes to see that it was the gate of the north city wall that had been breached.
It turned out that when the ban was waiting to climb the cloud ladder to attack the city head, the troops pushing the crash car and waiting to attack the city gate did not stop, but finally the city gate could not withstand the impact and was knocked out by a large gap.
More than a thousand soldiers outside the northern city wall burst into cheers, and all the troops near the city gate rushed towards the city gate. Of course, Yu Jin also saw this scene, so Yu Jin stopped going up the cloud ladder, and instead ordered the dead man to kill the city gate with him.
Han Ji, who was watching the battle from the top of the tower ~www.mtlnovel.com~ exhaled and said, “Finally, it’s broken!”
However, he saw the soldiers rushing to the city gate, like the tide hitting a hard stone, not only did not rush into the city, but started to flee backwards. Han Ji widened his eyes in surprise and said, “What’s going on?”
Inside the city gate, dense crossbow bolts and arrows shot out.
A middle-aged man in a civilian robe stood in the middle of dozens of crossbowmen, archers and spearmen, with a sword in his hand, and solemnly ordered: “I, Yang Hong, are here, fighting side by side with the public, and those who look after, behead! “His voice was hoarse, but his expression was determined.
Shooting him with crossbows and arrows from a distance, and stabbed him with spears from a distance, the strong men in the city pushed a parapet wall to block the gap.
Yu Jin squeezed into the chaotic group of soldiers and tried his best to move forward, but before he reached the city gate, the gap in the city gate was blocked by the guards with the parapet.
The gap is just ahead, how can the guards block it!
Yu Jin swung his sword and shouted, “At this moment, victory is over! Whoever retreats will be killed!” He chopped down two soldiers who were forced to retreat by arrows and crossbows inside the city gate, but rushed forward again and again for a few steps. , his throat was sweet, and he couldn’t help spurting a mouthful of blood.
The head in front of him gradually turned black, the steel knife fell to the ground, and Yu Jin fell on his back.
When he woke up again, Yu Jin found himself lying in the tent, with his armor removed and half naked, with two military doctors kneeling on his side, diagnosing his pulse and healing his wounds. Yu Jin asked in a hoarse voice, “Where’s the city?”
“The captain is awake?”
“Where’s the city?”
A military doctor replied: “Not broken.”
Yu Ban did his best, raised his hand, and slapped the seat below him fiercely, full of anger and unwillingness, and said, “So difficult to overcome? So difficult to overcome!”
But on this night, the opportunity to break through Luyang County appeared.
