Chapter 99 Liu Wang’s Courage

Hu Guang frowned when he heard this. Is the war in Changli already so intense?

He pondered for a moment, then clicked on the Liu Wang family's icon and said: "Liu Wang family, how is the current situation of the war?"

After a while, I heard Liu Wang's hurried reply, her voice full of worry: "Many injured, Jianlu has gone crazy..."

At this point, it seemed that something was wrong, and the voice suddenly cut off. "Xiaohe...Pudu sentient beings, can our capital be defended?" Ruhua heard this, or felt the same way, and asked with a little worry.

Hu Guang heard this and said without hesitation: "Don't worry, nothing will happen to the capital."

After finishing speaking, he clicked on Liu Wang's icon and continued to ask: "Liu Wang, how is the morale in the city? Can it be defended?"

"Morale?" Mrs. Liu seemed a little confused, but she soon came to her senses and hurriedly replied, "I don't know on the city, but on the women's side, everyone will not be in a good mood when they see so many injured people. We’re all worried!”

When Hu Guang heard this, he immediately solemnly ordered: "Tell everyone immediately that Zu Dashou has led troops to rescue Changli, and tell Zuo Yingxuan to insist on it. At the same time, tell everyone the news to cheer everyone up. In this way Only then can we protect Changli!"

"Haha, blow it!" Ma Fugui, who was seeking death, may have become a little more courageous because of Ruhua's softening during this period. He half forgot Wen Tiren's warning and couldn't help but bubble up again.

The matter was urgent. Hu Guang ignored Ma Fugui. Knowing that Liu Wang, an ordinary woman, might not have the courage to speak out, he continued to persuade: "If the city of Changli is destroyed before the reinforcements arrive, you and your family will Die! Do you want to watch them die, or do you want to work hard and try your best to save Changli?"

"But...but if there are no reinforcements, wouldn't the civilian woman become a liar and be deceived by the neighbors..."

Hearing Liu Wang's hesitant reply, Hu Guang felt a little embarrassed, and immediately asked loudly: "Then you are worried about your own reputation and don't want to cheer up the people of Changli, improve their morale, and defend the city?"

"Let me tell you, there must be reinforcements from Zu Dashou, but I don't know when they will arrive today. Even if there is no such thing, what taboo do you have to lie in order to defend the city? That's all, you can think about it yourself! "

After hearing this, Mrs. Liu was silent for a while, and then she seemed to have made up her mind and said, "But... but no one will believe what a civilian woman says."

"It's okay. You can just act casually and pretend that it was Zuo Yingxuan who told you. Zuo Yingxuan will never embarrass you afterwards. If you really want to embarrass you, just say that you are a spy of Jin Yiwei, and your identity certificate is in the capital. You can ask Zuo Yingxuan to come to the capital for inspection!"

"..." Ruhua listened speechlessly. Although Wen Tiren was very protective of the young monk and said that winning the young monk's favor was very beneficial, you, the young monk, can't say the same.

Thinking of this, she was a little worried and said, "Little monk, is this bad? The Jin Yiwei are the emperor's personal soldiers. Even Lord Wen doesn't have that kind of means, right?"

"Pudu sentient beings, I know your good intentions, but this is a bit too much. The Jinyiwei are my private army of the Ming Emperor. Don't embarrass Mr. Wen!" Yue Congye advised.

Ma Fugui lost no time and expressed his opinion again: "Haha!"

Under such a background, no one expected that Mrs. Liu's voice was very small, but full of gratitude: "Little monk, thank you for always worrying about Changli's affairs. Your kindness is accepted by a civilian woman, and there is no need." It's difficult for Lord Wen, and the women of the country have already made up their minds. "

At this point, her voice rose a little higher and she said extremely firmly: "For the sake of Chang Li, for the sake of the child's father, and for the sake of the two children of the civilian woman, the civilian woman should do it now!"

When Hu Guang heard this, he couldn't help but nodded. He didn't defend himself. He thought to himself, forget it if you don't believe it. Let this Liu Wang become the Imperial Guard!

At this time, far away in Changli, the war was raging. The Jurchen Tatars with money and rat tails were either riding horses or holding swords, and were holding the formation from behind. If anyone saw anyone disobeying the order and retreating, he would step forward and strike with a sword, or raise his hand and shoot an arrow. Whether they were Han slaves or Mongolian Tatars, they would all be punished on the spot.

With such a supervisory team present, the Han slaves and Mongol Tatars all moved forward bravely, hiding behind the carriages and approaching the city head, or shooting arrows at the city head, or attacking the city with ants.

The two walls of Changli are all leaning on rows of simple ladders. Groups of Tatars are holding the ladders, while another group of Tatars are climbing up quickly. Under the city wall, many rolled logs, stones and Tatar corpses had been piled up.

On the top of the city, five or six of the people guarding the city held a long pole with a fork at the front, retreated to the end, and then shouted slogans and exerted their strength with their feet, quickly rushing towards the battlements, aiming at the The ladder on the battlement was pushed hard.

Beside these people, there were some minzhuangs holding spears or spears, looking at the top of the ladder, staring at the Jianlu's appearance, and then stabbed them hard.

Only a few people were strong, holding bows and arrows in their hands, shooting arrows at the city, trying to suppress the archers under the city.

However, there were too many archers outside the city. The bows and arrows shot at the top of the city made clanging sounds from time to time. They either landed on the top of the city, or flew over the top of the city, flew into the city, or hit Minzhuang. From time to time, someone Injuried.

When a soldier is injured, if he is still able to move, he should withdraw from the top of the city. Someone will treat him and bandage him there. If he is unable to move, if the people in the city see him, they will brave the rain of arrows and go up to the top of the city to carry him down. As for those who will die immediately if they hit a vital point, as long as it does not affect the defense of the city, there is no time to worry about them.

Under the city gate, there are still "bang bang bang" sounds from time to time. It is the Jianlu hiding in the city gate hole, banging against the door with a wooden bumper.

In the arrow tower, there were two government officials protecting Changli County Magistrate Zuo Yingxuan and observing the battle. At the same time, standing next to him was a strong man named Li Shiqi, acting as a commander, issuing some orders from time to time to make up for the weak points in the city's defense.

Suddenly, Li Shiqi turned to Zuo Yingxuan with a stern look on his face and said: "Sir, Jianlu's attack was too crazy, Minzhuang was injured too much, many people's faces were a little desperate, and their movements were much slower. And to add to that They are no longer young and strong. If we don’t use explosive bombs, the common people will be in danger!"

After listening to Zuo Ying's selection, he turned to look at the shells placed on the innermost side and sighed in his heart. There were still too few.

As for defending the city, he still believed in Li Shiqi's judgment, so he nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly seemed to hear something. After listening carefully, he found that there seemed to be cheers coming from the city.
