[Soldiers Assault Gao Yuan] Flowers and beautiful family members

At sunset, at dusk, the wind outside the Great Wall swept the loess all over the sky, and outside the Xixing Pass, there were corpses strewn all over the field, and rivers of blood flowed.The sky was gray, lightning flashed and thundered instantly, violent wind and rain, countless bright red blood streams converged and flowed down the cliffs chopped with knives and axes, and gathered at the foot of the mountain to form a river of blood, soaking the soil under the cliffs into bright red.No one cleaned up the corpses on the battlefield. There was no time and no manpower. They could only let the carrion corpses and bones pile up there, becoming a delicacy for wild dogs and vultures.

On the dilapidated but solid city wall of Xixingguan, there is still a general flag hanging high, with a black border and a yellow background, a big middle, and a bright red "Gao" character, which is clearly unfolded in the strong wind, and a pole is tied to the flagpole. The spear that was shining with cold light, the red cherry was stained with too much blood, strand by strand, the red color was almost monstrous, because this spear had been shot off countless times, but the flag was raised high again countless times Fluttering, no need to worry about the fate of falling.Everyone knows that the next time this flag falls, it will only be accompanied by the fall of the owner of this gun.

A carrier pigeon landed on the city wall, and the messenger took the pigeon's wings and went straight to the tall man standing on the beacon tower of the main city wall: "Report! There are carrier pigeons arriving in the court!"

The tall man didn't turn his head back, but a 20-year-old young lieutenant behind him took the pigeon, took off the letter box, opened a roll of paper inside, looked at it, glanced at the tall man, and said in a low voice: "My lord Seal you as Marquis of Dingbei!"

The man snorted coldly: "It's just a false name up to now! Even if I'm crowned prince now, it's only a fixed number for today and tomorrow. What's so special about it! From now on, except for the war, there is no need to report anything else!"

The young lieutenant also laughed lightly, casually threw the imperial decree on the side table, raised his head and said to the tall man: "Since it has been announced to the world, it is not called white or called, and it counts as a day. Lord Hou, the target here is too obvious, let's go to the back and rest for a while, He Xue will definitely come to attack the city tomorrow!"

The man called Lord Hou finally turned his head to look at the lieutenant general. With the lightning, he could see that even though his armor was stained and his face was not clean, he was handsome. Because of the long-term sleeplessness, his eyes were bloodshot, but they were still burning.

"Ma Xiaoshuai, if I can't even see people with a hundred paces, why bother to defend the city here, and go home to spend time and drink!"

Ma Xiaoshuai knew that what he said was useless, he sighed lightly, and changed the subject: "Master Hou, some people in the city sent food over yesterday!"

Gao Cheng frowned: "You took it?"

"We are running out of food and grass..." Ma Xiaoshuai muttered.

Gao Cheng sighed: "Let's just accept it! We can only fight for a few more days if we are full, and our Holy Majesty can run farther!" There was a hint of disdain and helplessness in his words.

Ma Xiaoshuai curled his lips: "It's all in the south of the Yangtze River, if you go further south, you'll be directly on the border of Dali!"

Gao Cheng shook his head, turned around and concentrated on looking at the violent storm and the sea of ​​corpses and blood outside the city.

There was a sound of "thump, thud, thud" going up the wooden stairs, and another lieutenant of Gaocheng ran up quickly: "General, a spy has been caught!"

Gao Cheng turned to look at him: "Bring it up!"

Ma Xiaoshuai looked at Gan Xiaoning who ran up and said, "What kind of general, I will be called Lord Hou from now on!"

"Ah?" Gan Xiaoning glanced at Gao Cheng, seeing no response, hesitantly said: "Again promotion? This is the third promotion within a month, three levels in a row!"

Gao Cheng snorted: "So much nonsense, where are the spies?"

Gan Xiaoning stuck out his tongue, and turned around to beckon the soldiers to bring the spies up.

Gao Cheng sat on the grand teacher's chair in front of the front window, and looked up and down the spy: he looked like he was in his 20s, with a blue Confucian robe, and a thin face.It's not as strong as He Xueren, but he looks like a scholar from the Central Plains.

"Who's here?" Ma Xiaoshuai shouted, "Report your name!"

"It doesn't matter who you are, but I'm not a spy. I want to see your general!" The scholar said boldly with a bit of arrogance unique to scholars.

Gao Cheng snorted, and suddenly stood up: "Tell me, who sent you? I am Gao Cheng, the highest official here!"

The scholar raised his eyes to look at Gao Cheng, and his eyes finally showed a little respect in arrogance: "I offended you just now! I am here to pay tribute to General Gao on behalf of all the scholars in the pass!"

Gao Cheng looked back impatiently at the rain that seemed to be getting lighter outside the window, and frowned: "Okay, I accept your salute, you scholars, go south as soon as possible, if it is too late, no one can guarantee that you can go Gotta take it off!"

The scholar was stunned: "Does General Gao mean to withdraw troops?" His expression suddenly became agitated: "Could it be that General Gao wants to hand over our great rivers and mountains to the Tartars? We heard that General Gao led five thousand officers and soldiers to defend Xixing Pass to the death. , came all the way from Jiangzhou to the land of Yanyun, could it be that General Gao is also a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? I have misjudged the person!"

Gan Xiaoning raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Five thousand officers and soldiers? Now there are only a few hundred wounded soldiers in Yanyun City. Who said five thousand?"

"Gan Xiaoning!" Gao Cheng yelled angrily, Gan Xiaoning knew he had slipped his tongue, and hurriedly turned his head and stopped talking, but his expression was still a little angry.

The scholar stared wide-eyed and paused on the spot: "What? Hundreds of people? Could it be... Could it be that you are using these hundreds of remnants to resist the army of He Shen? Don't you have any reinforcements?"

Ma Xiaoshuai looked at Gao Cheng and sighed: "I don't think you can leave, I think you should stay in the barracks!"

The scholar lowered his head slowly, of course he knew it was because he was afraid that he would reveal the military plane with only a few hundred people here, but he thought that these hundred people had been fighting against He Sheath's army for a month, repelling He Sheath's army more than a dozen times The attack is simply unbelievable.

April in Jiangnan is already spring and bright, full of flowers, Emperor Shen enjoys the drunk dream of the screen window in this flowery palace, and the political hall, which is more than twice the size of his own Forbidden City, is now full of wine, and there is a graceful atmosphere in the court The women's brocade fan is elegant, and the jade sleeves are blown by the wind, dancing with coquettish bright red and cloud patterns.All the dignitaries around were jubilant and full of flattery, which only made Emperor Shen laugh out loud.

But in April in the land of Yanyun, the wind is still rushing, the yellow sand is accompanied by the whistling wind, and the sky is full of dust. The whole Yunzhou is dyed in a confused and brutal yellow, and it hits the windows and makes a crackling sound.

Hanging high above the city of Xixingguan, the general flag with the word "Gao" written on it was rolled up by the wind and stretched out, making a "popping" sound. It is stained with stains, reddish brown and dark brown, all of which are the blood splashed on it in the siege battles one after another, but because the iron red-tasseled spear is used as the flagpole, the flag still stands upright, and it stands out on the lonely tower. Stand out from the crowd.

"Hurry up, call someone to bring up the arrows, the archers are ready, look at the vigor of this attack, He Shen is planning to break the boat!" Gao Cheng stood on the top of the wall and pushed Gan Xiaoning who had been staying close to him: "Don't Let me get in the way!"

Arrows hit the top of the wall like rain, Ma Xiaoshuai led someone to bring the arrows up, glanced at Gao Cheng, and hissed: "Master Hou, your face..."

Gao Cheng wiped his face with the back of his hand, there was blood, just now an arrow brushed against Gao Cheng's cheekbones, hum, you want to plot against me, be more tender!Gao Cheng turned his head and yelled at the people behind him: "Get ready, catapult, put the catapult into the city gate for me, absolutely don't let He Sheath approach the city gate!" Carrying it to the military doctor's side, he straightened his neck and shouted: "Come on, an archer, plug this gap!"

Gao Cheng turned his head and picked up his own bow and arrow. The ten fingers that used to be like jade when he was a prince are now wrapped with a blood-stained white medicine cloth, holding a feathered arrow. It was originally very artistically "squeezed vermilion and buckled the string", because Gao Cheng slightly The pale lips lost a bit of beauty and added a bit of chill, "Zheng" buzzed along with the bowstring, and the feathered arrow shot into the neck of an archer from He Shenjun outside, the man's eyes widened instantly, unbelievable Looking at the direction where Gaocheng was standing.

"Master Hou, the Tartars are building a long ladder again!" Ma Xiaoshuai ran over quickly, one of them lost his footing and almost rolled to the foot of Gao Cheng, who was kicked by Gao Cheng: "What are you panicking about?" He stood on the battlement and took a look Sure enough, He Shenjun ran over carrying the ladder, a sneer appeared on his face, he pulled the wound on his face, a stream of blood flowed down from the wound, Gao Cheng felt his face itchy, wiped his handsome face with his sleeve, Half of his face was flushed with blood, and he looked wild, rough and rebellious.

"Bring up the prepared spirits and light the torch!" Gao Cheng ordered without looking back.

Gan Xiaoning understood, and went down quickly. After a while, buckets of strong wine were brought up, and the city wall was instantly filled with the aroma of wine. Gao Cheng opened a bucket to have a look, put his finger into his mouth, and showed a trace of ruthlessness in satisfaction. smile.
