life in ancient gods

Chapter 115 115 Fulai

The people of Jinling City heard that Fang La's army was going to attack Jinling, and they were in a mess. All the princes in Jinling City moved to Bianliang, the capital, and those who could move had already moved. Most of the people who stayed in Jinling City were civilians and misers. Then there's the army.

The task of the army is to defend Jinling to the death. This is the imperial court's will. If Jinling is lost, Fangla's army will cross the Yangtze River and approach Bianliang, the capital city. Therefore, Jinling must be defended.

The emperor was also afraid that Jinling City would be lost, so he transferred half of the Imperial Forest Army guarding Bianliang, the capital, to Jinling. The [-] Imperial Forest Army would arrive within five days.

Standing on the walls of Jinling City were rows of guarding soldiers dressed in black leather armor, holding crossbows in their hands, and carrying three barrels of crossbow arrows. These were [-] crossbowmen trained by Su Ping'an.

There are also 200 spearmen and sword-shield soldiers trained by Su Ping'an, [-] archers formed by Orion, and a special force composed of more than [-] knight-errants, led by Zhao Polai.

Li Tianba, Lu Da, Wu Song, and Hua Rong served as commanders of thousands respectively, while commanders of centurions were mostly the best of the best of the Su family army.

Li Tianba led a thousand sword and shield soldiers, Lu Da and Wu Song each led a thousand spear soldiers, and Hua Rong led five hundred archers.

The two thousand crossbowmen were commanded by Su Pingan himself.

The soldiers all looked solemn, waiting for a fierce battle that was about to take place.

There are ten medium bed crossbows, eight large bed crossbows and seven small bed crossbows on the surrounding walls.

Behind each medium-sized bed crossbow stood thirty responsible soldiers, behind the large bed crossbow stood one hundred responsible soldiers, and behind the small bed crossbow stood five responsible soldiers.

In addition, a large number of rolling logs, stones, fire oil, and hot golden juice were prepared on the city wall.

Golden juice is actually dung water. The dung water is mainly dung water from cattle and sheep. The hot dung water can not only burn the enemy, but also the dung water is very dirty. The viruses in the dung water can be said to be ancient biochemical weapons.

Ye Chenli had already ambushed in the dense forest in the suburbs with more than 2 horses. Among them, there were more than 3000 cavalry, including Su Ping'an's [-] cavalry, [-] archers, and the rest were all spearmen, spearmen, and sword shields. soldier.

Su Pingan wore a silver helmet and silver armor, with a green sword hanging from his waist, and twenty personal guards followed behind him, patrolling and appeasing the residents in the city to prevent turmoil in the city.

Coming to the street in front of Pingyue's pawn shop, Li Shishi saw Su Ping'an and hurried out of the pawn shop.

Li Shishi is wearing a moon-white jasmine tulle today, and a white pleated skirt scattered with water mist and moon. He tied his jet-black hair into a wishful bun, inserted a pearl white jade hairpin, and applied a little powder, although it is simple. , but it is all charming and charming.

She walked up to Su Pingan, exhaled like a blue breath and said: "Mr. Su, I have something to say to you, could you please come in?..."

Su Pingan saw Li Shishi coming, and saw that Li Shishi had something to say to himself, he nodded and followed Li Shishi into Pingyue's pawn shop.

"Master Su..." Li Shishi threw himself into Su Pingan's arms with tears in his eyes.

Su Ping'an only felt that the fragrance was full of jade, and he was at a loss for a moment. He smelled the fragrance of the alchemy on Li Shishi's body, and asked, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

"Master Su, I'm afraid..." Li Shishi's beautiful eyes were full of tenderness, and there were endless things to say to Su Ping'an in his heart, but he couldn't say it at this time.

It's no wonder that at the critical moment of life and death, if Su Ping'an is defeated, then Su Ping'an will be killed by the enemy. She is a weak woman, and she can't accompany Su Ping'an on the battlefield. She just sits at home and always cares for Su Ping'an's safety And worried, always paying attention to the news about Su Ping'an, how could he not be worried.

Su Ping'an naturally knew Li Shishi's feelings for him, and felt very relieved. He looked at Li Shishi's beautiful eyes and said, "You should try to go out as little as possible these two days."

Master Li looked up at Su Ping'an, with a trace of concern in his eyes, and said softly: "I know, Mr. Su, you need to be more careful when you lead troops to fight. In the past few days, I have been burning incense and worshiping Buddha every day, just for I hope Mr. Su is safe, do you still have the jade pendant engraved with the auspicious bird on Mrs. Su's concubine?"

"Well, look..." Su Pingan took out a white jade pendant with auspicious birds carved on his waist, showed it to Li Shishi, and said with a smile: "I am a lucky person, and with your auspicious bird Yupei's blessing, even if I am in danger, I will be saved, so don't worry."

Li Shishi straightened his delicate body, took out a moon-white silk handkerchief, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, looked up at Su Ping'an, and said softly: "Mr. Su, I will not delay your official duties, this jade pendant It is a concubine's family heirloom, as long as you carry this jade pendant, it will be as if the concubine is by your side."

Su Pingan did not expect that the white jade pendant engraved with auspicious birds that Li Shishi gave him was actually a family heirloom of Li Shishi. Li Shishi's affection for him is self-evident.

Thinking of his family's care and his confidante who cared about him, Su Ping'an's spirit was greatly lifted. He must defend his family and his confidante who cared about him, and he would not allow any mistakes to be foolproof.

……

Su Ping'an asked the residents who were running around in the market to go home and stay honest. If they couldn't stay at home, they asked them to pick up weapons and go to guard the city wall, so as to contribute to Jinling City.

As a result, in the originally bustling Jinling City market, there were only a few shopkeepers here and there, gathered together as if they were discussing something.

"You said that Fangla's bandit army is really powerful. It's really incredible that they took down two counties in a row. Do you think our Jinling City can be defended?"

"If you can't keep it, you have to keep it. My wealth is all in Jinling City. Even if I die, I can't lose the restaurant. This is the hard work of half my life."

"Look at what you said, if a person is dead, what's the use of a shop?"

"Then why don't you sell the shop and go to Bianliang, the capital city, to escape? I want to sell it now, why don't you buy it?"

"I... I can't sell it for a while? My inn is also the painstaking effort of half my life. I wanted to sell it two days ago, but the buyer lowered the price too low. I am reluctant to sell it. Now there is no one who wants to sell it. I bought it, hey."

"Who says it's not? Hey, if Fang La's bandit army really invades the city, they will lose all their money... If I can sell my restaurant now, the price can be lower..."

"...I heard that the shopkeeper Zhao of Qingyang Martial Arts is buying restaurants and inns. You two might as well go to Qingyang Martial Arts and ask."

"Really? That's great, let's go, let's ask together."

Inside Ching Yang Martial Arts Hall

In a room in the corner, Wu Zhi was talking to a fat man in a blue robe with two goldfish eyes on his round face.

This fat man with goldfish eyes was none other than Zhao Buzhu, the innkeeper.

It turned out that Su Ping'an had sold the Yunxuan Inn in Huxi Town a few days ago, and asked Zhao Buzhu, the shopkeeper, to come to Qingyang Martial Arts in Jinling to help. Qingyang Martial Arts recruited two more martial artists. Lu Da and Wu Song are compared, but the advantage is that the wages are cheap.

"Brother Zhao, I have sent people to pass the news, but I don't know whether the idea of ​​the curator Su will work or not..." Wu Zhi said to Zhao Buzhu.

"Our Pavilion Master Su is a man of gods. Don't worry about his idea, Brother Wu. Someone will visit in a while." Zhao Buzhu's admiration for Su Ping'an can be said to be endless.

He said that Su Ping'an is a god-man, but that's not to brag about Fengcheng, it's a compliment of true strength.

In just over a year, Su Ping'an not only opened three shops in a row, but also became a fifth-rank general Dingyuan. .

After a while, two people really came to Qingyang Martial Arts Hall, one was the manager of Fulai Inn in Jinling City East City, Fulai Inn was one of the largest inns in Jinling City.

One is the shopkeeper of Fuhai Restaurant, which is one of the top ten restaurants in Jinling City. Su Ping'an and Li Shishi often came to Fuhai Restaurant for dinner.

The two came to Qingyang Martial Arts Hall together to discuss the sale of Fulai Inn and Fuhai Restaurant with Zhao Buzhu.

……

Within Jinling City

Shen Gang, the god of Qingtian, led [-] rebels to march towards Jinling City. He only ransacked the two towns he passed by. The rebels carried piglets, old hens, gold and silver treasures, Pushing a siege vehicle and ten ladder vehicles rushed to the battlefield laughing.

An hour later, [-] rebel soldiers had arrived on the official road three miles away from Jinling City.

The flags of [-] rebels covered the sky, and in front of the army of rebels, which stretched for several miles, was riding a tall brown horse, wearing a suit of brown armor, and holding an eight-foot-long lance in his hand. Under a ray of sunlight, the lance's front glowed with a cold light.

Beside him were two generals in iron helmets and iron armor, holding spears and riding yellow pussy horses, constantly observing the surrounding situation.

There are large dense forests on both sides of the official road, which makes it difficult for people to see clearly.

A trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of the general on the left, and he said to Shen Gang: "General, there is not even a single person on the official road leading to Jinling County, it seems that the enemy army is ready, the general must be more careful! "

Shen Gang didn't care, he didn't look at the general on the left, he just squinted at the sky coldly, and said proudly: "Bullshit, when the enemy's troops heard that this general is coming, they already acted like a mouse. Tail fled into the city, what's so strange?"

The general on the right looked flattering and complimented Shen Gang: "What the general said is very true, the general is brilliant!"

Shen Gang was refreshed, and he laughed, "Haha, Lao Gao, you are the most in line with the general's wishes!"

"..." Seeing that Jiang Jun didn't listen to his words, the general on the left could only shut up, with a trace of melancholy in his eyes.

……

On the gate tower of the south gate of Jinling City, Su Ping'an, Li Tianba, Lu Da, Wu Song, and Hua Rong were discussing matters.

Luda was wearing a gray robe, holding an ink Zen staff, and said to Su Ping'an with a smile: "General, this damn bandit army from Sajiajue dares to attack our Jinling City with only [-] troops, right? You don’t take us seriously enough? If you hadn’t stopped me, General, the Sa family would have really wanted to rush into the enemy line alone and kill the hell out of them! Hahaha..."

"..." Su Ping'an rolled his eyes with a black line on his forehead, and said to Lu Da: "Do you think you opened Wushuang?!"

"What is Wushuang? The Sa family doesn't seem to know this martial art..." Lu Da asked Su Pingan with a strange look in his tiger eyes.

The other three people were also very curious about the new vocabulary Su Pingan said, and thought that Kai Wushuang was a martial art that could destroy the world.

Su Pingan said to the four subordinates beside him, "Wu Shuang just turned on the invincible mode. Do you know Zhao Zilong in Changshan? Zhao Zilong can enter and exit seven times among thousands of troops without being injured, but he can kill the enemy soldiers on their backs. This is the double opening, understand?"

The four of Lu Da listened very carefully, and even the little soldier in the distance gave him a thumbs up, and couldn't help but praise in his heart: "General Su is not only outstanding in writing, but also knowledgeable and knowledgeable. Admiration!"

Wearing light armor and holding a steel knife, Wu Song laughed at Lu Da's bragging words: "General Su, what you said is, brother Lu, you are indeed bragging, the enemy has [-] soldiers Horse, not [-] ants, even if it is [-] ants, if you let Brother Lu step on it, Brother Lu will probably be in a hurry, right?"

Lu Da scratched the back of his head, "Then I am Changshan Zhao Zilong who drives Wushuang! Haha, if you enter the enemy's formation, you can enter seven times and exit seven times...!"

"...Oh, Brother Lu and I think the same, I also want to enter the enemy line like that Changshan Zhao Zilong, killing him seven in and seven out, it's not fun, hahaha..."

The corner of Su Ping's mouth twitched, watching Lu Da and Li Tianba, two shameless bragging and farting, he touched his chin, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, thinking about things in his heart.

Hua Rong narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced at the official road in the suburbs, "General, look, the enemy army has appeared one mile away!"

Su Ping'an and the others couldn't help looking towards the official road in the suburbs, and faintly saw the bandit army approaching Jinling City like a black dragon.

"The orderly."

"Subordinates are here!"

"Give me the order, as long as the large army of thieves comes within the range of the crossbows, let the crossbowmen and the crossbowmen fire thousands of arrows at once!"

"Here!"

After a while, as soon as the messenger delivered Su Ping'an's military order, he saw that the enemy army had approached Jinling City at a distance of 800 meters, and stopped to deploy siege troops.

The siege force has hundreds of bandits pushing a siege vehicle and ten ladder vehicles, and they are constantly approaching Jinling City.

Behind the engineering troops were [-] vanguard troops, holding up their large shields, followed closely behind, looking down from the tower, like pieces of fish scales.

The large crossbow can reach a range of 500 meters, and its power is devastating.

The enemy's siege troops have already entered the range of the large bed crossbow, but this is not enough. They must be within the range of the crossbowmen in order to completely defeat the enemy's siege troops and vanguard troops at one time, so that There is no place for him to die.
