Volume 2 The Theory of Equality of Things Chapter 33 Destiny and Pattern

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The reinforcements still hadn't arrived, and Hu Kezhi walked anxiously around the city.  Since the Ghost Liao people besieged Huashan County, he has never been to the city. He even has food, accommodation and office here.  This is what I learned from Master Guo.  It was like this when Fu Yue was at Jiashan Pass that day.

    Huashan County has expanded several times and now has the size of a state and county.  But after all, time is still short, and the city wall has not been expanded. The current city wall is only more than two feet, which is much worse than the old city wall before.  Even if you encounter a master, you can jump up in one step.  The old city wall is now enclosed within the city and has become the inner wall of Huashan County.

    It has been more than ten days since the siege of the city. Even an elite division will be exhausted even if the troops are fortified and the city is fortified.  What's more, these scattered ghosts are even more slack now.  If you pretend to attack the city wall every day, you will have completed the task.

    And now they are actually grabbing grain from the rear, which makes Hu Kezhi look very ugly.  It would be hard for anyone to watch the fruits of their hard work being snatched away like this.  However, now that his status is getting higher, he can calm down.

    On the contrary, Ning Caichen was walking around the city irritably. He was sent to southern Xinjiang by Fu Shuo for training, and he spent a lot of effort.  Seeing those ghost bandits openly harvesting the food they had worked so hard to organize the refugees to farm, I felt like my heart was being cut by a knife, and I wished I could go down and fight with these ghost bandits.

    He began to regret why he was still a powerless scholar when there were so many opportunities to learn magic and martial arts.  It's just that he likes to practice martial arts and magic: "Don't these devils know how to farm at all? The civilization is extremely low, almost barbaric. Why do they know how to harvest food!"

    Ning Caichen is of course not doing academic research. He wants to figure out this issue and write a professional paper.  But just complaining casually.

    Zhuge Wolong stood nearby and said: "They can even make bronze weapons, how can they be barbarians!"

    Although bronze has a low boiling point, it is easy to make.  But after all, it is not a technology that those living ghosts with primitive lives can master.  They should rather use stones and bones to make weapons.

    Ning Caichen said again: "Lord Qie, are you just watching these ghost officials acting arrogantly in the city?"

    Qie Zuhui smiled bitterly, but did not dare to neglect at all.  Although Qie Zuhui is the commander of the Beijing camp and a third-grade general.  Zhuge Wolong and Ning Caichen, on the other hand, had no official positions and were at best counselors and staff.  But this, after all, is the prospective brother-in-law that Fu said

    He quickly explained: "We have been defending the city for so many days, and the gunpowder and bullets we brought are almost used up. Those ghosts are very evil. If they can't break their heads, they can be cured. Our muskets are not powerful enough.  ah¡­¡­"

    In fact, he didn¡¯t say the most important thing.  Originally, the Beijing camp soldiers were led by two people, one was him, Qie Zuhui, and the other was Wang Zhengbei.  However, Wang Zhengbei was seriously injured in the battle at Yuanzhou City, and most of his two thousand troops were also killed or injured.  That is the real main force of this Beijing camp army.  After all, in this world where Taoism is present, the power of muskets is still too weak.  Even if new gunpowder is used.

    Now, because of his brother Tie Zhushi's rebellion, Wang Zhengbei was arrested on his hospital bed and imprisoned.  This kind of thing is extremely damaging to military morale.  Although Fu Shuo found out later and ordered his release, Wang Zhengbei, who was originally seriously injured, now only has half his life left after such a torment.  Qie Zuhui went to see it. What a majestic and majestic man he was before was now so thin that he lost his shape.  Lying on the bed, he looked like a skeleton, his eye sockets were sunken, his eyes were staring at the ceiling, but there was no trace of energy

    The military environment is relatively closed, brave, and focused on the whole.  It is natural to admire brave generals easily.  An unparalleled warrior like Wang Zhengbei is naturally more admired by soldiers than Qie Zuhui, who holds a musket from behind. In the battle of Yuanzhou City, Wang Zhengbei was unparalleled in loyalty and could compete with the divine soldiers of Shenting.  Admired by all soldiers.  Now, Yuanzhou City's injuries have not yet healed, but people have been implicated, arrested, and treated like that. It is really sad to see it.  Under such a blow, it would be damned if the troops had the desire to fight!

    Even the relationship between Qie Zuhui and Wang Zhengbei was average. At this time, they both felt sad.  Sometimes in the dead of night, Qi Zuhui would inevitably think of what those people said in Yuanzhou City that day: "You have the destiny of the emperor, we will assist you, and you will ascend the throne and become the emperor in the future, facing south and facing north, how carefree and happy? Why bother?  Beating people to life and death"

    These things only flashed through his mind when no one was around, and he didn¡¯t even dare to stay in his mind for long.  But about Wang Zhengbei, there is stillWaiting for Fu Yuo's treatment this time, the feeling that life is held in the palm of a person's hand, and life and death depend on someone else's thoughts, still makes Qi Zuhui feel uneasy.

    Neither the others nor Wang Zhengbei are familiar with it, and they don¡¯t know the joints involved, so no one said much!

    "Two thousand township regiments and 10,000 young men have been organized in the city!" Hu Kezhi said: "Two thousand of the township regiments were originally planned to be adapted into the town army, and they have good combat effectiveness!"

    Not only do they have good combat effectiveness, these rural regiments started training in Fu Shuo's era.  Under the leadership of Fu Shuo, he had broken the Guiliao people's stronghold, so he had some combat experience.  Moreover, after the Dahua Guiliao people returned to the imperial court in the future, they also incorporated 300 elite Dahua Guiliao people into this township regiment.  Their combat effectiveness is on par with the Beijing camp soldiers. They have made great achievements in defending the city these days, not even worse than the Beijing camp soldiers led by Qie Zuhui.

    As for the remaining young people, they are just ordinary people.  It's okay to help transport things and defend the city, but not if a war breaks out!

    Several people felt as if they were sitting in a sleepy city, and they couldn't help but sigh.  Ning Caichen said, "It would be great if Fu Shuo was here. Fu Shuo would definitely be able to think of a solution, right?"

    Qie Zuhui was just thinking about what Fu Yao would do. He would probably take advantage of the fact that the Ghost Liao people outside were in such chaos to send troops to counterattack, right?  In the past, Qie Zuhui's blood would definitely boil when he thought of this, but now he no longer has that kind of enthusiasm and becomes passive and slow down at work.  Although I thought of this, I was unwilling to take risks, so I naturally would not express my thoughts out loud.

    But Qie Zuhui didn¡¯t know that a person¡¯s luck is also related to his character.  With the way he looks now, the colorful light on his body has dissipated a lot and become dim (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
