Chapter 138: Unfortunately, there is no horse



When Yang Jin climbed up to the city gate, he saw two figures disappear from his sight.

"Where are the people?"

Qi Hou brought a team of men and quickly surrounded the place to search.

"Over there!"

Suddenly, someone shouted.

The people guarding the city and patrolling the city all looked over there.

I saw two people standing on the city wall, trying to climb over the wall and leave the city using a rope.

Yang Jin picked up the bow beside him and aimed his arrow at the person who was leaning out of the city wall.

With a "whoosh" sound.

The long arrow pierced the night sky and pierced straight into the chest of the man in black.

...

...

Then the man in black disappeared from everyone's sight.

Suddenly, a loud "bang" was heard under the city gate.

Qi Hou pointed his sword at the people who remained on the city wall and shouted, "Capture them!"

Before he could lead his men over, the remaining men in black leaped decisively.

Jumped down from the city wall.

Qi Hou pounded the city wall hard: "How could he die so easily!"

Yang Jin held a flashlight and shone it towards the city gate, and found that both men were dead.

He ordered: "Pick up the body and investigate what happened."

Qi Hou clasped his fists and accepted the order: "Yes!"

Yang Jin returned to the general's mansion and was about to take a shower, go back to his room and have a good sleep with his wife.

"General."

Qi Hou hurried to the general's mansion.

Yang Jin's heart skipped a beat, and he felt that the situation was not good.

"What happened?"

Qi Hou took a deep breath and said, "The bodies of the two men in black are gone!"

What do you mean missing?

Yang Jin widened his eyes, as if he wanted to see through Qi Hou.

Qi Hou said: "I took people to collect the body, but found only two pools of blood, but no trace of people."

He took people to search, but found no clues.

Yang Jin slapped his head in annoyance: "It's all my fault. I didn't even think of using a flashlight to shine on the dead body."

"There is no time to lose!"

"Let's go and report to His Highness."

The study room in the government office.

"Your Highness, this is how things happened. It was all my fault for not paying enough attention."

Yang Jin lowered his head and explained the whole story.

Xiao Jingzhou lowered his eyes and frowned.

He knew that the news that there was food in Zhiyi City would be revealed sooner or later.

But I didn’t expect that before the winter even passed, someone would start spreading the news.

The situation in Zhiyi City was more complicated than he had imagined. It was like a sieve with all kinds of people in it.

Xiao Jingzhou said: "Dispatch personnel to strengthen patrols.

Don't give anyone another chance.

What happened tonight is to find out as soon as possible how those two men in black climbed onto the city gate. ”

Yang Jin: “Yes!”

After Yang Jin and Qi Hou left, Lu Chen closed the door.

He approved a piece of clothing for Xiao Jingzhou.

"Your Highness, if those two are really spies, what should we do then?"

Xiao Jingzhou said calmly: "Then we have no choice but to go to war."

Lu Chen's face froze.

The total number of generals defending Zhiyi City was no more than 20,000.

The people had just experienced a plague, so it would be difficult to recruit soldiers from the public.

What's more, the proportion of children, women and the elderly is many times higher than that of young and middle-aged men.

Starting a war under such circumstances is like a child carrying gold through the market, waiting to be robbed!

Thirty miles away, in a felt tent, two singing girls were singing and dancing.

The leading man had his chest wide open, revealing his bronze skin, looking wild and aggressive.

"Hahaha, dance, jump!"

He embraced the beauty beside him and bit her half-exposed breast, leaving a red mark.

The beauty was shocked and frightened. Even though she was in pain and sweating coldly, she did not dare to push the man away.

"General, there is a scout outside reporting."

The singing and dancing came to an abrupt end.

Hu Riwei grabbed a handful of beef jerky from the bowl and threw it on the ground casually.

The two singers and the beauty quickly crawled over to pick it up.

Hu Riwei put one foot on the cushion, stroked his chin with one hand, and admired with interest.

After a long while, he finally said, "Bring him in."

“Yes!”

The beef jerky was picked up quickly.

The singers, beauties and musicians all left the tents.

The scout entered the house, still smelling of blood.

The scout took off the bag and showed the contents to Hu Riwei.

Corn, taro and cabbage were clearly seen in the bundle.

Hu Riwei had never seen corn and taro, let alone how to eat them.

Although the fresh and tender cabbage was stained with red blood, it did not block the fragrance of the vegetable at all.

He peeled off a bloody leaf and put it in his mouth to chew. The taste of rust mixed with the sweetness of the vegetable.

"Okay, okay, this is really good stuff!"

He leaned back, his eyes fixed on the scout.

"Where did you get this from?"

The scout smiled flatteringly and said, "General, this item was obtained from Zhiyi City on the border of Dajing.

The two warriors who sent things out of the city have sacrificed their lives for Chibei. ”

Hu Riwei laughed ruffianly and said, "Let them be buried properly. This general will reward them with the honor of having a hundred horses trample their graves!"

Hearing this, the scout said happily: “Thank you for the reward, General!

"To receive this honor, I think they can rest in peace after their death."

Hu Riwei scattered a few pieces of dried meat on the ground and then waved his hand.

"Go down."

After the scout left, Amur walked into the yurt.

Hu Riwei played with the cabbage and said, "I originally thought that we could fight to support the enemy and fight all the way to the heartland of Dajing Dynasty, but I didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise."

He grasped the cabbage tightly, and the juice flowed down from between his fingers.

Hu Riwei smiled sideways and said, "We will set out early tomorrow morning and head to Zhiyi City of Dajing Dynasty!"

The next morning, Xiao Jingzhou summoned people to the government office to discuss matters.

When everyone learned about what happened last night, their mood became very complicated.

Seeing the depressed look of the crowd, Yang Jin felt a little overwhelmed.

Only Gu Zhenbei still has the blood of a soldier.

He raised his voice and said, "We have food and 100,000 people in the city. What are we afraid of?

Forced into a corner, men, women, young and old all went to the battlefield! ”

Having said that, Gu Zhenbei also knew the fate of women, children and the elderly who went to the battlefield.

But now he is afraid before the battle, which is really not his style.

"What's wrong with you guys?"

"After two days of good times, are you already starting to get timid?"

The last sentence awakened everyone present.

Qian Wuyou stood up: "General Gu is right!"

"We have food, so what are we afraid of?"

"We have enough food and drink to fill our stomachs, so why should we be afraid of not being able to defeat those who are hungry?"

"I'll go take inventory of the granary and get ready for battle!"

Yang Jin was encouraged: "I will call the troops and have them sharpen their weapons.

When the enemy attacks, kill one at a time, kill two at a time! ”

As the Minister of War, Wei Wenshan understood the importance of weapons best.

He said, "We need to prepare more blades. I will take people to count the weapons storage room to see how many bows, arrows and blades are left."

Xiao Jingzhou said in a deep voice: "The situation of the enemy is still unclear.

The Three Kingdoms are close to Zhiyi City.

A few days ago, we captured a spy from Chibei. I don’t know if there are any spies from the other two countries in the city. ”

Yang Jin stood up and said, "I will send someone to find out the news right away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his face froze.

After hesitating for a moment, he said solemnly: "Zhiyi City has been out of food for many days, and Guanyin soil has been eaten.

This horse..."

Qian Wuyou also sighed: "What a pity there are no horses!"

“If you use your two legs to get information.

I'm afraid that the enemy has attacked the door, and the scouts may not have come back! ”
