The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

"war!"

"war!"

"war!"

Song Jingchen's remarks raised the morale of the soldiers unprecedentedly. Whether it was the imperial army or the usually lazy local army, there was only one goal in mind at this time, to drive the Wu army out of Daxia's territory.

Xiao Qirui glanced at Song Jingchen.

Not long after he ascended the throne today, Wu Guo's army was overwhelmed, and he didn't have time to consider the matter of overturning the case for General Gao, not to mention Song Jingchen left Chang'an half a month earlier than him, how could he possibly receive the task of re-investigating the case back then?

But Xiao Qirui also knew that since Song Jingchen had spoken, he would definitely do it, and he would definitely seek justice for General Gao.

Before that, he always thought that these local troops were not cooperating everywhere because of xenophobia. They were sluggish all day because they were scared by the black powder of Wu State. It was only now that they realized that they had only held grudges against the imperial court for a long time, and they could not rebel. Only in the most stupid way will you express your dissatisfaction in your heart.

Song Jingchen was different from him. He saw through this point and let Song Zhong finish the words that shook the hearts of the army.

Because he knows that some abscesses can heal faster only if they are punctured and the pus flows out, instead of covering them up and letting them rot like the injustice that General Gao suffered, such as the death of Princess Wu , the reason for the Wu State to send troops.

He twitched the corners of his mouth. He had not been able to convince the local army after he came to Nanling Pass for two months, but Song Jingchen did it on the second day.

His father said it well, Song Jingchen is much better than him, what he has to learn is not only arranging troops and tactics, but also how to know people, employ people, and win people's hearts.

Xu Shi was shocked by the sudden burst of morale on the tower, and the horse under Song Zhong's crotch snorted uneasily.

Song Zhong never expected that his words not only did not make Da Xia's soldiers surrender, but instead served as an assist.

Although Daxia's troops are smaller than theirs, the opponent occupies a relatively favorable terrain. If they have to forcefully break into the city, they will inevitably lose a lot of people, which is not a good thing for their follow-up attack.

It is precisely because of this understanding that the previous siege will choose Xu Xutuzhi, in order to kill the morale of the opponent, so as to achieve the purpose of taking Nanling Pass without abandoning one soldier and one soldier.

In this way, not only can the troops be saved, but also the Daxia people can fight the Daxia people...

He fixed his eyes on the general who suddenly stood up from the tower, and his heart sank when his eyes met.

"Song Jingchen! Why, how is it possible, shouldn't he just arrived at Cangbei Mountain now?"

Cangbei Mountain still has at least a month's journey to get here.

If they knew that he would arrive so soon, how could they have delayed it so far?

Before he had time to think about it, he hurriedly called in the messengers to pass the news that Song Jingchen had arrived at Nanling Pass, and the plan had changed to Han Tong, who was in charge of the rear.

The messenger ordered the horse to gallop out.

Han Tong, who was over fifty years old, was guarded by a team of iron-clad troops in the middle of the rear camp. Hearing the words of the messenger, he had a strong killing intent in his eyes, and said gloomily: "Song Kunhong died, when The arrow he attacked the old man, the old man is worried that there is no one to report, this son of the Song family came just right."

The messenger subconsciously glanced at his legs hanging on either side of the horse's belly.

For a generation of famous generals, rather than hiding in the rear to command, it is natural to think of going to the front to kill the enemy in blood.

But as we all know, General Han's legs fell sick on the battlefield in the early years. In winter, he even had to use crutches to walk, and naturally he couldn't go to the front to fight.

I just didn't expect that the person who seriously injured him at the beginning was Grandpa Song of Daxia.

After the demise of the previous dynasty, the rebel armies from all over the country occupied the land one after another and became the king. In the end, only Xuanyuan, Shangguan, and Nangong won the victory.

In order to snatch the territory, the three families went through a war for three years. In the end, all three were lost. They had no choice but to negotiate. They established their own countries based on the territory in their hands, and thus have the current Three Kingdoms.

As a veteran, Han Tong also played against Grandpa Song at that time. As for the so-called sneak attack, Grandpa Song died. Naturally, he said what he said.

Han Tong glanced at the messenger, his eyes sank, and he quickly pulled out the sword from his waist...

The messenger only felt his eyes flicker. "Ah..." He screamed, and rolled down from the horse, covering his eyes that were constantly pouring out blood donations with his hands.

Han Tong didn't even look at him, raised the long sword with dazzling blood in his hand: "Go on and attack the city."

Well----

The sound of a thick horn suddenly resounded through this side of the world, which was the signal for a siege.

"Since you are not stubborn, don't blame me for not giving you a chance." Song Zhong suddenly pulled out the long spear behind him, waved it forward, and an earth-shattering roar erupted from the depths of his chest: "All the soldiers obey the order, attack city……"

An extended horn sounded, and at the same time the drums of war sounded.

Boom, boom, boom...

From slow to urgent, a sound came into everyone's ears, with an unstoppable momentum.

"Rush in and kill them all!"

"Come on!"

"kill……"

The Wu army shouted passionately, formed a tortoise shell, and quickly approached the city gate.

Xiao Qirui glanced at Song Jingchen, saw that he was silent, and raised his hand: "Drumming."

The war drums on the city tower were beaten, and the loud rumbling sound shook the world.

With the sound of war drums, the soldiers quickly entered a state of combat.

When the Wu army entered the range of the bow and arrow, Xiao Qirui raised his hand again: "Release the arrow."

His words fell, and the rain of arrows in the sky pierced the sky in an instant, with a piercing sound of breaking through the sky, overwhelming the sky and covering the Wu army.

After the first row of archers finished shooting, they quickly took a step back to make up their arrows, and the archers in the back row immediately shot the arrows in their hands.

The two rows of archers cooperated with each other to surround a protective cover with a rain of arrows.

However, the Wu army was all hidden in the tortoise shell, and the arrows could not hurt them at all.

The soldiers on the tower couldn't help but feel anxious.

Han Tong watched this scene coldly, picked up the blue command flag on the side and waved it forward.

Well----

The horn sounded, and the main ladder was carried one section at a time, and the soldiers with long spears rushed out under the cover of the tortoise shell array.

To put it bluntly, those who rush in the front are the ones that attract arrows.

Song Jingchen said in a deep voice, "Stonehenge."

The catapult was quickly pushed by the soldiers to the rear of the archer, and the boulders were shot out uniformly. At the same time, the arrow in the archer's hand was also replaced by a rocket.

The huge stone smashed the tortoise shell array, and even if the shield was not broken by the side bottom, it was enough for one or two rockets to drill through the gap and shoot into the enemy's body.

All of a sudden, the Wu army was hit by arrows or fell to the ground by stones, screaming incessantly.

Han Tong's eyes sharpened: "Archer, catapult, cover the cloud ladder to climb the stairs."

The soldiers on the side heard the words and blew the horn again.

Immediately after, black powder flew out from the rear of the camp through catapults, drawn an arc in the sky, and accurately exploded on the city tower.

The power of black gunpowder is so great that the soldiers on the city tower cannot avoid it.

Before even the wailing could be heard, they were blown to pieces, and even if they were not bombed, they were affected by the power of the explosion, screaming in horror and rolled down the tower.

This is only physical, the fear of black powder has long been engraved in the bones of Daxia soldiers.

What they saw in front of them were all the companions who had not even left their bones, and what they heard in their ears were the screams of their companions. Many people had the intention to retreat, and subconsciously looked at Song Jingchen.

Song Jingchen just stood in front, tall and straight.

He didn't know when there was a long whip in his hand, and the other hand was swinging the sword to block the arrows shot from outside. If a soldier rolls out of the city wall beside him, he will immediately use the long whip to roll people back.

He knows better than anyone that wars are built with countless corpses. No matter whether you win or lose, there will be casualties, but he will still do his best to save one.

For some reason, seeing this scene, everyone's hearts were inexplicably settled.

They can't retreat. Behind them are the people of Daxia, including their families. If they all retreat, what will the defenseless people do?

Now that they have put on this armor, protection is their mission, even if it is death!

"Brothers, don't be afraid, don't they just have a few black balls, as long as we defend this gate, the victory is still ours."

I don't know who shouted.

The rest also shouted: "Yes, it's just a few black balls. What's there to be afraid of? It's a big deal to fight with them. Eighteen years later, I will be a hero again."

"right……"

Everyone encouraged each other, those with bows and arrows took bows and arrows, and those who moved stones rushed to fill the "gap" blown out by black gunpowder.

Others stepped forward and dragged away the corpses of the soldiers who had fallen on the tower so that their companions could walk.

At this time, under the cover of black gunpowder and bows and arrows, the soldiers of Wu State below had completed the splicing of the main ladders and set up several ladders.

The black powder offensive of the Wu army also stopped at this time.

This further confirmed Song Jingchen's guess.

The black powder in Wu State's hands was limited.

In fact, it is not difficult to analyze. Saltpeter ore is rare, and since it is one of the materials for making black gunpowder, the black gunpowder made by Wu State cannot support a war.

Therefore, although he has been studied, he has not put all his chips on it.

Outside the city walls, the enemy troops struggled to climb up the ladder.

The soldiers on the city tower threw stones and kerosene down one after another. However, a lot of these things have been used in the previous attack. If this continues, sooner or later, they will run out of ammunition and food.

Song Jingchen said solemnly, "Prepare to lock the bridge."

The lock bridge is composed of a wooden frame and a freely rotating wooden stake. The wooden stake is tied with a retractable rope lock. One end of the rope is tied to the soldier's waist, and the other end is pulled by multiple soldiers.

By locking the bridge, the soldiers can be directly suspended outside the city wall, which is convenient for killing soldiers who climbed the ladder and pulling down the ladder with a flying hook.

When everything was ready, Song Jingchen gave an order: "Let it go."

Everyone was busy pushing the lock bridge and put down the companion holding the flying hook.

Dodging the boulders and kerosene, the soldiers of Wu State, who managed to reach the gate with great difficulty, looked at the man who suddenly appeared behind him, and hurriedly slashed with his sword, but the other side cut his throat mercilessly.

At the same time, the ladders and the soldiers of Wu State on the ladders were also pulled backwards by the other's flying hooks.

For the sake of convenience, their ladders were spliced ​​together, and they were instantly disintegrated after landing.

Han Tong's eyes darkened, and he glanced at the horn soldier next to him, and the other party understood.

Well----

The horn sounded again, and the Wu soldiers outside the city wall quickly raised their shields to the top of their heads, and the twelve rushed down the city tower in a group...

"Why, these people want to be tortoises?" Meng Wu couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene.

The rest of the people also laughed in cooperation.

Xiao Qirui frowned, with Han Tong in command, he always felt that it was not so simple, and turned his head to ask Song Jingchen's opinion.

The shield in the middle of the small tortoise shell suddenly opened, and an archer flew out, pulling a bow and shooting arrows in one go.

Before the soldier controlling the lock bridge could pull his companion back, he watched as the arrow penetrated his body.

Seeing this, the archers on the tower hurriedly aimed at the opponent's archers, but the opponent fell back into the tortoise shell after shooting an arrow, and at the same time, the shields were closed again.

More and more soldiers still on the lock bridge were killed, Song Jingchen's eyes sank, and he used his inner strength to shake the long sword in his hand into segments.

Another Wu State soldier flew out of the tortoise shell formation, but this time, before they could shoot the arrows in their hands, they were killed by pieces of debris.

The generals on the tower were stunned for a moment. They all looked at Song Jingchen, who was standing still. After reacting, they followed suit. They couldn't break the sword with their bare hands, so they grabbed the bow and arrow from the soldiers on the side.

After figuring out the laws of Wu soldiers, as long as someone flew out, they would shoot the arrow directly in their hands.

If you are lucky, you will fall down with one arrow. If you are unlucky, you will be targeted by more than two people, and you will have to have more holes in your body.

But it was too late to be happy, and a loud bang came from below.

Everyone quickly looked, and it turned out that under the cover of shields, two chariots rushed through the rain of arrows and slings on the city tower, and were taking turns ramming the closed city gate.

This city gate has been bombarded with black powder several times. Although it has been repaired later, it will not last long if it hits like this.

Song Jingchen shoved the bow in his hand into Xiao Qirui's hand: "cover me."

Thinking that his sword had just been broken, he took Xiao Qirui's sword and turned around and walked towards the lock bridge.

Xiao Qirui guessed what he wanted to do almost instantly, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "I'll go, you cover me."

Song Jingchen glanced at him: "Are you sure?"

Xiao Qiruimo: He hasn't even tried it yet, so how can he be sure?

But there were so many soldiers guarding the chariot. To be honest, he really didn't have much confidence in killing all of them before he died.

"You can't go anyway." He clasped Song Jingchen's shoulder with one hand and said directly.

Song Jingchen hooked his lips: "If you can be so rambunctious when facing Miss Yuan Da, why can't you chase her back?"

He clearly cares about the other party, but a gourd who looks like his mouth has been sawed is silent, and the other is obedient everywhere, gentle and obedient on the surface, but in fact, his heart is transparent and decisive.

The corners of Xiao Qirui's mouth twitched, thinking of Yuan Yuwan, there was a touch of melancholy on his face, and he said, "Since you understand so well, then go back to Chang'an and teach me."

Song Jingchen suspected that the sound outside was so loud that he heard it wrong. Is this what the Xiao Qirui he knew would say?

After reacting to what he said, Xiao Qirui coughed lightly: "I just said, you understand so well, it seems that your brother and sister are the ones who have been fooling around and coaxing them."

Song Jingchen raised his eyebrows, it was good to be entangled, but at the beginning, it was clearly the girl who was the one who was being...

The conversation between the two only took a few breaths, and another crash sounded. Song Jingchen patted Xiao Qirui's hand away and said solemnly, "Cover me, this is a military order."

Xiao Qirui wanted to say that His Majesty did not appoint you as the head coach, but Song Jingchen's official position was indeed higher than him, so he shook his head helplessly and said, "Then I will disobey this military order today, if I am lucky enough to come back alive, you will deal with me according to the military regulations. Bar."

After he finished speaking, he grabbed the sword from the hand of the soldier on the side, raised his hand to grab the rope lock hanging from the lock bridge above his head, and opened his mouth to order someone to raise the lock bridge.

His wrist was suddenly grabbed, and Song Jingchen pulled him down and pushed him in front of the two soldiers, instructing lightly, "Watch him."

"General Xiao, offended."

Although the soldiers were puzzled, they still obeyed the order to hold Xiao Qirui's hands tightly.

Xiao Qirui broke free for a few times, but he couldn't kill anyone, so he could only shout angrily, "Song Jingchen, come back to me."

Song Jingchen ignored him, not wanting to raise his hand when a familiar voice sounded behind him.

"Xiang, Xianggong."

Song Jingchen turned his head sharply, and saw Shen Yijia holding a giant bow in his arms, with an arrow basket full of arrows on his back, leaning against the wall, panting heavily.

Before he could speak, he noticed something, and he took a stride and pulled the person into his arms: "Be careful."

In the next instant, an arrow accurately flew up from the place where Shen Yijia had just leaned, hit the wall behind, and landed with a crisp "ding" sound.

Xiao Qirui, who saw all this in his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a sullen face, "Let go."

The two soldiers looked at each other and didn't move.

Xiao Qirui's heart froze: "The lady of the country is here, do you need me to stop him?"

The two soldiers looked at Song Jingchen and finally let go after seeing that he had no objection.

How did they know that Song Jingchen didn't object, but was wholeheartedly checking whether Shen Yijia was injured.

Shen Yijia let him check, and patted her little chest pretending to be afraid after the incident. She just wanted to say that Xianggong is awesome, and Xianggong is really amazing.

As soon as he looked up, he met Song Jingchen's black face.

Shen Yijia: I'll be darling, I forgot that the beautiful lady won't let her come to the tower.

"Nonsense, this place is so dangerous, is it possible for you to come?..." After confirming that Shen Yijia was not injured, Song Jingchen slapped his head and covered his face for a while.

"Big, sister-in-law, why are you running like that..." Song Jinghuan chased after him out of breath, noticing the gaze cast by his eldest brother, and silently hiding behind Shen Yijia.

Can't blame her, she has persuaded my sister-in-law not to come to the tower.

Her so-called persuasion is to tell Shen Yijia how despicable, how hateful, and how difficult it is to kill Han Tong along the way.

In the end, he succeeded in arousing Shen Yijia's fighting spirit, and drove the horse quickly...

Song Jingchen sighed and summoned two soldiers: "Send Madam back to General Xiao's mansion."

"And you, if you're healthy, go back to your barracks."

The latter sentence was addressed to Song Jinghuan.

He could see it clearly, Jiajia would come to the gate tower mostly because of this girl.

It is better to let her look at people than to believe that Jiajia will stay at home honestly.

Song Jinghuan: Don't be angry, don't be angry, it's not worth it when you're angry, it's not the first time my eldest brother is partial, I'm used to it...

"I'm not going back." Shen Yijia withdrew from Song Jingchen's arms.

She curled her lips, originally wanting to be angry, but thinking that the beautiful lady is caring about her, forgive him once.

Who made her a good and considerate wife.

"you……"

Shen Yijia pointed to the giant bow in her arms: "I'm here to help you."

A general who had seen the black iron bow and tried to pick it up but failed happened to look at it. First, he was amazed by Shen Yijia's appearance. He looked down at the bow in her arms and opened his mouth in shock: "High, high The general's black iron bow!"

His voice successfully attracted the attention of many people for Shen Yijia.

Those who had seen Xuan Tie Gong had exactly the same reaction as him, and those who had not seen it just glanced at it and put their eyes back on the battlefield.

Xiao Qirui looked at the black iron bow and asked hesitantly, "You mean that this bow is the black iron bow that General Gao spent ten years to build?"

He had never seen Xuan Tie Gong, but he had heard of it.

General Gao finally built a giant bow, but in the end he found that he couldn't even hold it, and even let all the soldiers in the army take turns to try it, but no one succeeded.

After all, it was one of the few jokes among General Gao, so things quickly spread among the generals.

Knowing that he was being laughed at, he also said that he could pick it up one day sooner or later, but unfortunately it will take a few years...

"Yeah, my subordinates still carried it back then, so it's impossible to admit my mistake." The general looked confident.

Song Jingchen glanced at Shen Yijia and reached out to get the bow.

Shen Yijia took a step back without a trace, stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear, "Are you afraid of losing face?"

With so many people watching, what my wife can pick up, as a husband, can't pick up, it should be... um... it will be very embarrassing.

Song Jingchen:  …

"General, our city gate can't hold on anymore." A soldier ran over and said anxiously.

The rest of the generals didn't dare to stay here, no matter how surprised they were, they dispersed.

Song Jingchen looked at Shen Yijia: "Jiajia, you go back first."

"No, I said it, I'm here to help you."

She also knew that the situation was urgent, so she didn't give Song Jingchen a chance to speak again, and continued: "I heard that Han Tong is the general who commanded the Wu army to attack the city. If we shoot him, the Wu army will definitely be in chaos. "

Song Jingchen shook his head: "Han Tong is at the rear of the camp and is protected by the Iron Armor Army. Not to mention that arrows can't be shot that far. Even if they can, they can't penetrate layers of shields..."

"Yes." Before he could finish speaking, Shen Yijia took out an arrow from the arrow basket behind him: "This is an arrow made of black iron."

Song Jingchen was startled.

Note: The tortoise-shell formation is that the soldiers put their shields together to protect the front, back, left and right, and a defensive cover to surround the city, which plays the role of covering the progress of the soldiers under the shield.
