Chapter 1452 The city descends and the people do not descend
Qin Lei held the wooden tower with both hands, but his face turned red and his heart was not beating, and he didn't even breathe. The soldiers who were originally fleeing in all directions stopped and were stunned when they saw this scene.
These soldiers have been in the army for many years and have seen many fierce and fierce men, but Qin Lei's thin and short body has supported a huge wooden tower. In the eyes of everyone, this short body is no longer a joke, but a terrifying existence.
"Jiefu, what should I do now?" Qin Lei saw the shocked eyes of everyone, and the unhappiness just now disappeared.
The two soldiers on the tower were still holding the wooden railings tightly. The wooden tower was still tilted. Their location was not high or low from the ground. If they jumped down, they would not have lost their lives, but it was inevitable that they would have broken bones.
Pei Ji looked calm and ordered: "Put them down carefully and don't hurt them."
Qin Lei nodded, held the wooden stake tightly with both hands, slowly raised it, and there were already bursts of screams everywhere, but Qin Lei slowly lowered the wooden tower. When it was not high from the ground, the two soldiers were afraid that something would happen again and had jumped from above. Qin Lei saw someone jumping down and shouted, "Do not crush you to death!"
The two soldiers rolled and crawled and hurriedly dodged. Qin Lei saw that the two of them were dodging, so he let go. The wooden tower fell down with a "boom" and split into pieces. Qin Lei clapped his hands and went over to pick up the hammer and rifle, but saw that the torch he had just taken had been extinguished. He thought that he would illuminate the road for Jifu. He looked around and saw that there were torches at the military camp beside him, but he didn't say much, so he went up and picked it down, held it in his hand, and walked to Pei Ji's side.
The Northwest soldiers had not yet come back to their senses, and were shocked by Qin Lei's divine power. Some people were already thinking in their hearts, no wonder that Hezhou City is so difficult to fight, and there is such a powerful figure hidden in it. They couldn't help but feel admiration. They forgot that the two people in front of them were enemies.
However, one general came back to his senses and shouted loudly: "I'm so bold, I dare to act here. Come and take them down!"
The soldiers came to their senses. Qin Lei was arrogant in the Northwest Camp and actually swept the wooden tower. He was so bold that the soldiers all wanted to be faced. There were only two of them, and they were so arrogant in the Northwest Camp. They were a little angry for a moment. Some soldiers were already aiming at the two with guns and were about to rush up to take them down. Although everyone saw Qin Lei's natural divine power, they thought that this was in the Northwest Camp, and there were many people and powerful people, so it would be easy to take these two people down.
At this moment, I heard a loud shout: "Stop!"
Everyone looked over and saw a general coming quickly. When they saw that man, the soldiers immediately retreated. The general walked up and bowed to Pei Ji: "You are Pei Ji?"
“That’s right!”
"The general is waiting in the big tent!" The general bowed and said, "Please follow me!"
Pei Ji tidied up his clothes, and under the eyes of everyone, he led Qin Lei and followed the general to the central army camp and entered the camp tent. He saw that Gan Hou was sitting in the middle, with more than a dozen generals standing next to him.
Pei Ji's face did not change and stepped forward slowly. Qin Lei was still carrying a gun. Although the tent was brightly lit, Qin Lei still held a torch without Pei Ji's instructions. He looked around and looked at the armor on the bodies of these generals. It seemed that if someone was interested, he would ask someone for it.
The generals and officials were on both sides, with cold armor and cold swords, and their expressions were cold, which were determined by Pei Ji and the others.
Pei Ji stepped forward, stood in the tent, and bowed, "Pei Ji, Hezhou, met General Gan!"
Gan Hou looked at Pei Ji a few times and sneered: "Pei Ji? I have heard of this name. I heard that Chu Huan rebuilt the Imperial Guard in Xiguan. He has a right-hand man under him who specializes in the affairs of the Imperial Guard. The man is also called Pei Ji, but I don't know if it is you?"
"yes!"
Gan Hou sat leaning on the chair with a big horse's golden knife, "Pei Ji, do you know where this is?"
"Since you're here, of course you know." Pei Ji calmly and calmly said: "This is naturally the Northwest Military Camp!"
"Since you know that you still have the courage to come here, I will really admire your courage." Gan Hou sneered: "Do you know that as long as I give you an order, you can remove your head?"
Qin Lei heard it from behind and immediately shouted: "You dare to touch a hair from Ji's father. I will cut off all your heads and hang them on the top of the city!"
As soon as this statement was made, the generals present were stunned at first, and then they all looked angry. Many people had already grasped the hilt of the knife, and some even shouted sternly: "So bold, I'm talking wildly here, and kill you guy first!"
"Knock!"
A general had already pulled out his sword, and under the light, the blade was shining with a cold light.
Qin Lei didn't care and said loudly: "You want to fight me together?"
"Stop Lei'er!" Pei Ji said in a deep voice: "Say one more word and drive you out immediately!"
If Qin Lei was Sun Wukong, Pei Ji would wait if he was Tathagata Buddha. As soon as Pei Ji spoke, Qin Lei would not dare to say more.
Mr. Gan looked at Qin Lei's eyes and smiled and said, "It's true that he has courage." His eyes moved to Pei Ji's face and said, "You are not guarding the city in the city, why are you here? Could it be that you are here to beg for surrender?"
Pei Ji asked replies without answering: "How many people are the general going to die?"
Gan Hou was stunned, then frowned and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean?"
"General Gan, I know that these northwest athletes under your command are brave men who have been through the battlefield for a long time. I heard that General Gan loves soldiers like his sons and regards these northwest soldiers as his brothers. In recent days, you and I have fought several times, and many brothers under your command will be killed and injured. General Gan must be very sad." Pei Ji's voice was gentle and he was not angry and powerful: "I just want to ask the general, in your opinion, if he really wants to capture Hezhou City, how many brothers will the general be prepared to die?"
Before Gan Hou could speak, a general next to him had already sternly said: "No matter how many people die, Hezhou City will be broken by us. At that time, the Hezhou City will be kept without any family or dogs!"
"Oh?" Pei Ji smiled faintly, "General Gan, I wonder if what this general said is what you mean? If it really represents your meaning, then I have nothing to say next."
Gan Hou glanced at the general and said, "If his meaning cannot represent the general, what do you mean?"
"After fighting in the past few days, General Gan also knew in his heart that your Northwest Army was brave and good at fighting, but the soldiers in Hezhou City were also determined to die." Pei Ji glanced at the general, "This general said boldly and said that he would keep the Hezhou City from leaving. I also believed this. I also knew that if the general really put his all his strength into it, he might be able to do this, but the general had to admit that when the Hezhou City was not leaving, the tens of thousands of Northwest soldiers could walk out of Hezhou City alive, but I was afraid that even 10% of them would be able to get out of Hezhou City alive!"
"Are you threatening me?"
"It's not a threat, but to tell the truth." Pei Ji said slowly: "If the general doesn't believe it, you can give it a try. At that time, Hezhou City will be bloody and become a real dead city. The general stands up from the pool of blood. Looking around, in addition to my guardians, there are countless warriors under your command!"
All the generals frowned.
In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that after fighting in the past few days, the defenders in the city can be said to be extremely tenacious. Not to mention when they can break through the city, even if they really take the battle, the price they pay will definitely be quite high.
Although Pei Ji's voice was not loud and his tone was calm, every word he crawled into everyone's ears, making everyone feel that every word he said was not alarmist.
Gan Hou touched his chin and stared at Pei Ji coldly, "What do you mean by saying these words?"
"General Gan, your Northwest Army and Tianshan Army are all in full swing to attack Hezhou City. The ultimate goal is to break Hezhou City." Pei Ji said: "Since that's the case, I have an idea, which can allow you to take down Hezhou City without any effort, and kill fewer people...!"
Everyone was stunned. Gan Hou was stunned for a moment and asked, "Pei Ji, are you here today? Are you going to surrender to me and offer a plan to break the city for me?"
"Pei can't do anything that is ripped off." Pei Ji shook his head with a smile: "If the general thinks Pei is coming to sell the defenders in the city, he is probably wrong."
"What do you mean?"
"General, we don't have to beat around the bush. We can give it to you in Hezhou City, but you have to make a guarantee." Pei Ji said seriously: "We must ensure that the defenders and people in the city are not harmed by slaughter!"
Gan Hou spread his eyebrows slightly and smiled, "As for this reason, are you still coming to beg for surrender?"
"Pei wants the general to guarantee that after the defenders withdraw from the city, you will enter Hezhou City and not harm only the people in the city." Pei Ji looked serious, "Not only your Northwest Army, but also Zhu Lingyue's Tianshan Army, you will not harm the people in the city..."
"Wait a minute..." Gan Hou frowned and said, "What did you say? After the defenders withdrew from the city? I don't understand what you mean after you withdraw from the city? Is it after you surrender?"
"The defenders can fight you bloody battles to the end, why should they surrender?" Pei Ji said slowly: "You can sacrifice the city, but the defenders do not surrender..."
The generals looked at each other, and for a moment they couldn't understand what Pei Ji meant.
Gan Hou leaned forward slightly, feeling a little confused, and asked, "Pei Ji, what you mean is that when your army leaves Hezhou City, then our army enters the city and presides over the overall situation?"
"That's what it means." Pei Ji leaned on a wooden stick. "The general must ensure that nearly 20,000 defenders in the city can leave Hezhou City safely, and then the general can lead his army into the city."
Mr. Gan suddenly laughed and touched his beard and said, "Pei Ji, are you telling a joke to me? Let your 20,000 army leave, and then we take down an empty city and let you leave. These 20,000 soldiers can be said to be the main force of the Xiguan Army. Let you leave, meet Chu Huan, and then go against us?"
"The general thinks Pei is telling a joke?" Pei Ji sighed: "It's just that this joke is not funny, and Pei doesn't know how to tell a joke either."
Gan Hou lowered his interest rate with a laugh and shook his head, "It is absolutely impossible to take down an empty city but let the main force of the Xiguan Army leave safely!"
"Since that's the case..." Pei Ji's expressionless face, "Then the general can come to attack the city, and do not hide it from the general. If you want to siege the city and force Hezhou City to surrender, this is probably not feasible. Although there is not much food and grass in my city, it is still no problem to save money for three or four months. As for your side, the food and grass of the Northwest Army are probably already seriously insufficient. You can rely on Zhu Lingyue to support the food and grass. I also know that Zhu Lingyue has sufficient food and grass, but your 100,000 troops consume how much food every day, you know that Zhu Lingyue is consuming, even if it is really
You can supply food and grass continuously from Tianshan, but you don’t know how long it can last? Although you are a coalition force, the Northwest Army is different from the Tianshan Army after all. I don’t believe that Zhu Lingyue will really supply food to you all the time. As for the Chu Superintendent, if you keep a stalemate here, Chu Superintendent will not sit idly by, and he will definitely try his best to gather the army. If Chu Superintendent leads the army to aid one day, don’t be surprised... If you want to attack the city, 20,000 defenders in the city are waiting at any time!" He smiled faintly and turned around and said, "Lei'er, let's go!"
"Let's wait!" Pei Ji didn't take two steps, and Gan Hou had already shouted.
