    Chapter 44: Seizing the City (2) But at this moment, Dong Dalang¡¯s troops could only move forward.  The Khitan Xijun, as Xiao Yan expected, would not die under the city wall.  The civilian men led by Dong Dalang attacked the city several times after encircling Yizhou.  Death and injury are everywhere.  There are less than three thousand guards in Yizhou, and the city is low.  However, despite Zhen Wuchen's bloody fighting, even when it rained heavily, he was still unable to defeat the enemy!  No one knows how many more lives will be lost under Yizhou City.  And how long can Xiao Qian's army support them!  The officer ran up and all the Khitan Xi officers standing behind Xiao Qian changed their expressions.  They, the victorious army, all had to be extra polite even if Dong Dalang was standing by.  This little pawn actually dared to come up and collide with the king of the four armies like this!  The guards around Xiao Qian immediately stepped forward, grabbed him, and pushed him into the muddy water. The riding whip was mixed with swear words and came down on his head and face.  The beating made this victorious army officer just roll over in the muddy water.  But he was really tough. He didn't even cry out. He just screamed: "Your Majesty, don't worry, we can't attack! He rushed to the bottom of the city, and the bows and arrows that supported us were scattered. The defenders on the city were all  You can stand up straight and hit us with rocks and rocks! The brothers are sleeping in the wild, eating dry cakes, and having to brave the heavy rain to attack the city. It's not worth fighting to the death!" Dong Dalang's face turned a little blue, and he slowly walked away.  Xiao Qian came out of the crowd and before he could say anything, Xiao Qian laughed and said: "Stop, stop! He is also a good man Such a heavy rain. The glue on the bow and crossbow fell off the string and became soft, and it couldn't fire a few arrows. What can I do?"  Dong Duguan, this is your subordinate, you can take care of it" The Xiren guard kicked him a few more times before he backed away with a curse. The officer stood up and knelt in the muddy water. He also took the risk.  He just looked directly at Dong Dalang: "Don't worry, I have been following the Dong family to fight since the old General Dong. It is not easy for the brothers to survive! Now forcing the brothers to attack the city is equivalent to killing them! If we want to attack the city, Xiao  Why don't your Majesty's men attack? Even if we are alone, we must give us the same food and the same tent. Don't let the brothers sleep in the mud and water again! It's really impossible for us to rest for a few days!  Why can't you go back to Zhuozhou? Old Guo Duguan has been seriously injured, what can he do to us?" Dong Dalang's face turned pale, and he slowly approached him and patted him on the head: "My subordinates are so brave.  You man Forget it, you go and rest, I will go to attack the city Yizhou must go down quickly! King Xiao is here to support us with his army, we can't lose the victorious army in front of the king.  People! It's just Yizhou. If we can't take it, what dignity do we have to survive in this quiet land?" The general was speechless, looking at Dong Dalang's livid face, he slowly saluted, stood up and turned around to retreat.  However, Dong Dalang snorted coldly in his ear: "Since you are going to rest, there is no need to get up again!" While speaking, he had already pulled out the long knife that was never leaving his body, and lightning flashed across his neck.  The victorious soldiers under the mound, and the Khitan Xi officers on top of the mound, watched helplessly as the injured head fell down with blood!  "Hang up and give the order to the whole army! Send the order and continue to attack the city!" Looking at the mound opposite, a long pole was erected, and a human head was hanging high.  Zhen Wuchen, who was on the city wall, his face darkened, and he slowly backed away and walked down the stairs.  A large shed was erected close to the city wall.  Dozens of soldiers who were hungry and exhausted stood guard outside in the rain.  The corpses brought down from the city wall were not buried, but were piled at the base of the city wall like stacks of firewood, almost as tall as a person.  Blood mixed with mud turned the ground a purple-black color.  In the greenhouse, the wounded soldiers were turning around and wailing.  There was another couch in the shed, and the tall body of Yaoshi Guo was lying on it.  His face was pale, his upper body was naked, and the white cloth he was wrapped in was stained with blood.  However, he still tried his best to support half of his body with the support of his own soldiers, and whispered to comfort the wounded soldiers not far away.  The wounded soldiers closer to him were trying their best not to howl too loudly.  Pharmacist Guo¡¯s face was pale, but he still looked calm.  When Zhen Wuchen came, the soldiers around Guo Yaoshi moved aside to let him approach.  Pharmacist Guo turned around and saw him, and laughed in a low voice: "Five ministers, how are you? We fought back again, right? Everyone is listening I also sent away the corpses of many brothers These days,  It¡¯s just a big thank you to you¡± Zhen Wuchen¡¯s short and stocky body has obviously lost a lot of weight.  Although his spirit remained intact, everyone could see the haggardness coming from his heart.  He silently approached Pharmacist Guo, leaned close and whispered: "No matter what, I can't hold on for too long The houses in the city are almost completely demolished, and nearly half of the soldiers have been killed" While there is still some strength, the heavy rain  Inside, the siege of Chang Hao is not complete yet. I will protect the governor and go out at night Go to the Song camp and find the eldest lady and the messenger Xiao! I will not embarrass the governor by staying in Yizhou.  !" Pharmacist Guo smiled softly and just looked at Zhen Wuchen.  Shaking his head slowly:"Half of my life has been devoted to this. If I escape, I will be nothing more than a walking corpse. What's the taste of life? A man can't eat five pots of food, and five pots of food will be nothing more than that He will not leave  Wuchen, tell me, how long can you last?" Zhen Wuchen raised three fingers silently.  Pharmacist Guo wanted to laugh, but in the end it turned into a violent cough that shook his lungs.  The arrow injured the lung lobe and the injury was extremely serious.  It was another two days of bumpy roads, but he was able to survive it because his body was strong and different from ordinary people!  "Three days is enough! My daughter will not abandon me The Song Dynasty envoy Xiao is even more ambitious. He will not let go of this opportunity! Even if he is wrong, it is just a mistake.  Just die!" On a hillock, Ma Kuo just looked north.  The gray-black brick-clad Zhuozhou City Wall only appeared faintly amid the rain curtain.  This was probably the moment when the Song Dynasty army was closest to Zhuozhou a hundred years later. Under the cover of rain and fog, it was only three miles away from the city.  Behind him, more than three hundred cavalry white soldiers and Shengjie troops were waiting quietly under the mound.  The man leads the horse and stands, and all he can see is the long white breath exhaled from under the iron helmet.  This Xiao Yan just led dozens of people to attack Zhuozhou City?  You must know that the Song Dynasty¡¯s 150,000 troops vowed to march north.  Famous ministers and powerful generals gathered in one place.  But they just crossed the Baigou River and didn't even see the shadow of Zhuozhou City. In the same heavy rain, they collapsed and went back!  Thinking back on getting along with Xiao Yan, this pretty boy who looked light and airy pushed himself to involuntarily lead his troops to this elusive and unattainable pass.  Looking back, it feels like a dream.  Everything about Xiao Yan's body was weird.  He seems to speak and act differently from other people.  His smile was extremely free and easy, without any of the restraint and caution that a Yan Di escape person should have.  But this man's courage and ability are really heartbreaking. Everything, the intricate and stagnant situation of the Great Song Dynasty's Northern Expedition was turned upside down by him! ???????? Could it be that God sent this man down because he could no longer stand the humiliating Yandi War?  Behind him, two horses came up quickly. Ma Kuo and Li Cunzhong and Qiu Huchen beside him both looked back.  But it was Xiao Yan's lovely and clever mute maid, and a confidant who Xiao Yan insisted on staying to protect him, who seemed to be named Wang Gui.  To this mute maid, Xiao Yan just said to follow him for a long time.  This time I fled back to Song Dynasty, but I couldn't bear to leave him behind.  Xiao Yan was confused, but Ma Kuo was knowledgeable and had poisonous eyes. Although this maid, who was fourteen or fifteen years old, was in charge of serving Xiao Yan, she had an unconcealed elegance in her behavior. Every word and deed was obviously subjected to extreme training.  Noble edification.  And it is purely a courtesy and propriety that only the wealthy families of the Song Dynasty have!  The nobility and even the court of the Liao people have been extremely Song-oriented since the middle period. There is even an emperor who wishes to rebirth the Song Dynasty, Emperor Tianyou of the Liao Kingdom.  Only children of noble relatives can receive such a complete teaching of etiquette from the Song Dynasty.  Xiao Yan claimed to be a deputy envoy of a small regiment, how could he afford such a maid?  But Ma Kuo kept all of this in his heart.  The little mute is extremely well-behaved and smiles like a flower to everyone. After traveling together for a few days, who wouldn't like her among these big and rough people?  Even Ma Kuo sometimes couldn't help but secretly envy Xiao Yan for his good fortune.  I saw the little mute running towards me. His cloak was already soaked through and his little face was covered with drops of water. He just looked towards the north, and then looked at Ma Kuo, his eyes full of begging.  Behind her, Wang Gui followed her step by step, taking his time.  Ma Kuo forced a smile: "Little eldest sister, we can only wait nowBrother Xiao said that an hour after he sets off, we can go north with all our strength and go straight to the bottom of the city. Before, the sky collapsed and the earth collapsed. We  We can't move either At this time, we can only listen to him" The little mute made a hoarse sound. She didn't know whether it was tears or water drops on her face. She only saw her big eyes red, and she closed her little hands.  Chaoma Kuo shook his head, just begging.  But Ma Kuo could only harden his heart and shake his head: "Little eldest sister, this is a military matter! There is no drama! If little eldest sister is worried about Brother Xiao, just pray for him But I believe that Brother Xiao is a member of the Liao Dynasty.  The people's camp can defeat a person who goes back and forth, how can this little Zhuozhou still be able to hold him back?" After saying this, he turned around and walked over.  The sound of dismounting came from behind, and Ma Kuo looked back again, only to see the little mute kneeling in the mud!  She faced the direction of Tiantai Temple, the most famous temple in Liao Kingdom, clasped her hands together, and just prayed silently in the rain.  The little face in the rain seemed to be filled with light at this moment.  Li Cunzhong and Qiu Huchen both shook their heads. They were not selected to go to Huncheng. They could only lead the Bailu soldiers and the Shengjie army.  Xiao Yan leads only his mixed team!  These two veterans were both admired and a little disappointed.  "What a good man, what a good manit didn't seem like much at first,"What order of praise did your father-in-law ask me to listen to? I was just thinking, what kind of bird announced praise and asked me to listen to his orders?  My husband is willing to give it up no matter what!  Now it seems that I am convinced from the bottom of my heart!  In this praise, if the word "praise" was replaced by the word "handsome", we might all be in Yanjing City now!  " "If he is not a good man, how can he afford this little lady to be devoted to him?  My mother-in-law is only fifteen years old. Compared with this little lady, she is just a foot wipe!  " The two talked in a low voice, and not a single sentence reached Ma Kuo's heart. He looked at the little mute, and then looked north. "Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, do you know that your maid is not the only one praying for you here at this moment?  If the officials knew about it, they should burn incense and bathe in Bianliang at this moment!  "
