Chapter 524 Out
Outside the south city gate of Ningxia Town at dawn, a long team came slowly. Their bodies were ragged and blood-stained, their legs and feet were intact and limping, and those who lost their legs lay on the flat plate of the ox cart. They looked dull and their faces were gray. Although they were still alive and panting, they were one by one Like a dead man.
The soldiers at the head of the city asked in panic. He Jin rode his horse from the rear and revealed his identity loudly. The gate guards quickly put down the suspension bridge and let He Jin enter the city. He Jin ordered his men to lead the wounded soldiers into the city slowly, and he galloped into the city and went straight into the Qing Palace.
Zhumei got up very early and looked slightly red after playing a set of five bird plays in the courtyard. He has always got up early and went to bed early, in order to have a good body, in order to achieve a great cause and become a treasure in the future, at least to be an emperor for decades.
The maid put hot water on the shelf in the porch to let Zhu Yuyi wipe her face. Zhu Yu wiped her head and face with a hot towel. When she was sighing comfortably, she saw Sun Jingwen running in from outside the yard with a panic. Zhu Wei frowned. Recently, he was very reluctant to see such a panicked expression, because at this time, it must be a bad news. He would rather not see Sun Jingwen and Zhou Ang for a day, which means that everything is fine and a safe day.
"Your Majesty, your Royal Highness."
"What's the matter, Jingwen, you are not stable now. You have to calm down to do big things."
"What the prince said, but my subordinates can't panic about this, West Cliff...West Cliff..."
"What's wrong with the West Cliff? Lost it?" Zhu Wei was shocked, shook his hand and knocked over the copper basin, and the hot water flowed all over the ground.
"No... Xiya was not lost, but He Jin ran back to move the rescuers and brought 2,000 wounded soldiers into the city. The families of the wounded soldiers in the city were crying and welcoming them on the street."
"What? What's the matter?" Zhu Wei said angrily.
"He Jin waited in the front hall, and the prince went to ask him in person."
Zhu Yu threw away the towel and hurried to the front hall. Sun Jingwen carefully followed closely. Soon after, he came to the front hall and saw He Jin kneeling straight in the front hall, hanging like an ancient sinner.
"He Jin, what the hell is going on." Zhu Wei scolded loudly.
He Jin shook his body and kowtowed and told yesterday's situation. Finally, he said, "The humble position is incompetent, but the humble position has done its best. The opposite seems to have arrived. There is no foothold for General Zhankou's bombardment. In order to prevent them from crossing, we have to brave the bombing of General Zhankou to defend the cliff mountain, with heavy casualties. Extremely; please send rescuers to support the West Cliff as soon as possible, otherwise the West Cliff will be difficult to protect.
Zhu Qi's face was pale and he was about to collapse. He quickly reached out and held the table and calmed down, "Is it Shenji Camp? This is really tricky. Isn't the magic camp out of the capital? The last time he left Beijing, the emperor left Beijing when he was attacked by a man in Xinping Fort. This time he actually went out for us, which is unlikely.
He Jin said, "The prince went to see the wounded soldiers and knew that they were all blown up to lack arms and broken legs. If it weren't for the magic machine camp, who could have a general cannon in the Shaanxi guard stations? Who can have such fierce firepower?
Zhu Qian slowly sat down and said, "If so, I'm afraid the whole city will go to defend the West Cliff, but why did you bring the 2,000 wounded soldiers back? Now the families of the wounded soldiers in the city are crying. You are touching the hearts and minds of our army and the people. It is simply unforgivable.
He Jin said in astonishment: "The wounded soldiers can't fight, so they can only be brought back to the city, otherwise they will die in the West Cliff Camp. At least they can be treated after returning to the city."
Zhu Qiqi said coldly, "Stupid, these wastes can't fight and can't be cultivated. What else should they do? It consumes the food of Ningxia Town; we have to stick to it for a long time, and the food supplies will be extremely valuable. Will these be wasted on these waste? Don't you have a brain?"
He Jin said dumbly, "Is it possible to abandon them all? These are all children of military households.
Zhu Wei snorted coldly, "You are the head of Yumu. I can't explain this to you. Let's talk about this matter later; Jingwen immediately recruited Zhou Ang, Qiu, Zhang Qin and others to come to discuss this matter."
Sun Jingwen immediately sent someone to pass the order. Soon after, everyone arrived one after another, but Qiu Yu did not come. Zhu Yu asked, "Has Qiu Yu's illness not recovered?"
Meng Bin said, "When he went down to invite him, he was still coughing and there were still blood stains on his lips. It seemed that he was very ill."
Zhu Wei frowned and said, "It's really useless; He Jin, tell you about the situation of the West Cliff, and give me some advice."
He Jin's narration of Ai Ai again, and Zhou Ang laughed and said, "General He is really a bottomless hole. You can defeat as many soldiers and horses as you give. 15,000 soldiers and horses were handed over to you, but you can't even defend the West Cliff. It's really speechless.
He Jin said angrily, "Go and watch it and see how much you can hold on."
Zhou Ang said, "Now it's a mess, so I have to help you guard it. Your calculation is full, and I won't wipe your ass."
Zhu Yu shouted angrily, "Who will say this nonsense and beat him to death?"
Zhou Ang and He Jin quickly stopped talking. It seemed that the prince really got angry.
"Your Majesty, if the general really said that if the officers and soldiers we met this time are Shenji Camp, we have to send reinforcements as soon as possible. In any case, the west cliff can't be lost. That's our last barrier. Once the west cliff is lost, the court soldiers and horses** will be no longer in danger." Zhang Qin, the guard of Pinglao City, said in a loud voice.
"Send troops, send troops, how many soldiers and horses do I have? There are only more than 10,000 people in the city now. If it is really a magic machine camp, isn't it sent to die?"
"The faction is dead, and if it is not, it is a dead end. The magic machine camp can only rely on General Zhankou and the distant side to bomb across the river, but General Zhankou's shells shells are limited and extremely easy to damage. Yesterday, my men saw a Zhankou general's cannon explode by itself during launch. Even if you take your life to block it, you can't lose their ammunition. You can't lose the West Cliff, your lord, that's the only way." He Jin pleaded in a trembling voice.
Zhu Yuqi sighed and glanced around in everyone's faces. He knew that it was actually useless to discuss it. It could only be a way to increase troops. Could it be seen that the West Cliff was broken through?
"Zhou Ang, how many soldiers and horses are there in the city?"
Zhou Ang thought for a moment and said, "There are still 2,000 soldiers and horses in the humble position, and Qiu Yu still has 2,000 in his hand. In addition, the three thousand guards in the prince's hands, coupled with the forced recruitment of more than 4,000 people in these days, barely more than 10,000. The people's husbands still don't have the ability to fight. They think that since they are going to die, it really can't work. It's better for one person to send a bow and arrow to force them to defend the cliff than to be shot with soldiers.
