"Military Lord, don't worry, this city wall is not built according to the specifications and standards for building the Great Wall. Its height will not be higher than Nantian Fort. It does not need to use stone materials. It will only use mud to build a city wall. Rouran people do not have heavy siege equipment. , Even if it’s a rammed earth city wall, they can’t do anything about it! My subordinates can guarantee that it will only take five days at most to complete!”

Zhao Junsheng made Wan Dugui unable to refuse, he weighed the gains and losses, and finally agreed: "Okay, I will lend these people to you for five days!"

In the early morning of the next day, under the command of Hua Mulan and Zhao Junsheng, the construction of the city wall started vigorously. Some people dug the foundation ditch;

It is much simpler and faster to pile up the city wall with soil than to use stone materials. In the case of pulling the soil with a horse-drawn cart, the city wall can be piled up in a few days. , and then compacted.

Two days later in the afternoon, Wei soldiers were building the city wall. Hundreds of Rouran cavalry rushed out of the forest a few miles away. The leading general Rouran saw that the Wei soldiers seemed to be building the city wall, and immediately gave an order to rush over here. .

A lot of hoofbeats came, and the Wei soldiers all changed their expressions. They were about to throw down their tools and prepare to take up weapons to protect themselves, but they heard Zhao Junsheng shouted: "I will continue to work, ignore them!"

The soldiers of Wei were at a loss, and many of the borrowed garrison soldiers were injured and cursed in their hearts, what the hell, all the people from Rouran rushed over, you told me to leave them alone?Dare to feel that the lives of the old men are not yours, you don't care, do you?

.

Chapter 199 I just want you to be safe!

Seeing these hundreds of Rouran cavalry rushing closer and closer to the hill, the Wei soldiers all changed their expressions, and panic appeared in the ranks.

Someone yelled: "Rouran people want to rush down the hillside and shoot at us!"

The Wei soldiers were even more flustered. No one stood on the ground and could take it calmly. Some even dropped their tools and the stones they were carrying and planned to escape.

Zhao Junsheng wanted to kill chickens and scare monkeys and establish prestige, otherwise these borrowed garrison soldiers would not listen to orders. He rushed down from Baoding, drew his sword, and chopped down three escaped garrison soldiers, blood spattered all over his face. yes.

The other town guards who were about to escape were startled and backed away when they saw his murderous expression with a long knife still dripping blood in his hand.

"Anyone who tries to escape will be killed without mercy! Let me go back and continue to work. Rouran people can't rush up and arrows can't shoot you. If someone is injured and dies because of this, I will cut off your head and kill you!"

The soldiers of the town garrison looked horrified at the murderous Zhao Junsheng and looked at each other. They took a few steps back and turned back in twos and threes to continue working.

General Rouran, who was leading the charge and intending to rush down the hillside to launch cavalry and shooting tactics against the Wei soldiers on the hill, didn't care at all when he saw those Wei soldiers charging towards them. Speed ​​up your sprint.

The length of the hillside is not long. There are dense traps on the hillside, and there are many wooden stakes and spikes. Rouran cavalry did not dare to rush up. At that time, if they rushed down the hillside and used the speed of sprinting, they could shoot arrows up the hillside, and it would also hurt them. It's Wei Bing's work.

"Rush, hurry up and shoot them!" General Rouran yelled at the hundreds of Rouran cavalry behind him who heard the order and galloped furiously.

The Wei soldiers on the hill looked horrified at the Rouran soldiers who were about to rush down the hillside and were about to start riding and shooting. The leader, General Rouran, fell forward together with his horse, and there were Rouran behind him one after another. However, the cavalry also fell to the ground, and they and their horses planted on the wet grass, stirring up a lot of mud and grass clippings.

The horses neighed in pain, and the fallen Rouran cavalry screamed in pain one by one, trying to get up, some broke their legs, some fell their backs, and some fell dizzy.

A succession of twenty or thirty Rouran cavalry fell down on the grass in front of the hillside, which was densely covered with horse pits. The cavalry behind had no time to slow down. disaster.

"Law——" the Rouran cavalry behind them finally reined in their horses in time and stopped in front of the grassland densely covered with horse pits. They were unwilling to draw their bows and set up arrows to shoot at the hill, but the arrows fell on the hillside one after another. Not one shot up the hill.

"Oh——" the soldiers of the Wei army on the hill jumped up happily when they saw this scene.

Some people raised their middle fingers at the Rouran cavalry down the hillside and made insulting gestures, some turned around and pointed their buttocks at the Rouran cavalry down the hillside, shaking their hips non-stop, and some cursed at the Rouran people.

"Bastard shit! This general wants to hack you to death! You wait for this general!" General Rouran got up from the ground and saw that the Wei army on the hill was so rude to him and his Rouran cavalry Immediately, he jumped into a rage, picked up the scimitar from the ground, and shouted to the post.

"Woo--" Wei soldiers called him one after another indifferently.

General Rouran and his Rouran cavalry yelled for a while in front of the grass covered with traps, but they had no choice but to carry the wounded soldiers away, mounted their horses, turned around and left.

"Okay - the Rouran people are gone!" The Wei soldiers on the hill jumped up and cheered.

Zhao Junsheng came over unsuitably and scolded with a straight face: "What's your name? You don't have to work? You bastards eat more than pigs but are lazier than pigs! If you can't work within two days After finishing the work, you will starve to death you bastards!"

Some soldiers of the town garrison were afraid that he would turn around and go to work one after another, and some people would not like him. He showed disdain for him and said, "Don't pretend to be a wolf with a big tail!"

Zhao Junsheng rushed over and punched and kicked some people screaming and scattered like birds and beasts.

"Brother Junsheng, I have something to tell you!" Hua Mulan appeared behind him at some point.

Zhao Jun panted angrily, closed his fists and feet, turned around and showed a smiling face: "Mulan, why did you come out? It's windy outside, you should stay in the castle to recuperate! By the way, what do you want to tell me?"

Hua Mulan turned around and walked towards the castle. Zhao Junsheng quickened his pace to keep up with her and walked side by side.

"Brother Junsheng, Rouran people must have an ulterior purpose or conspiracy. Unfortunately, we have received too little information. We know nothing about Rouran people, but they come to harass us time and time again. It's hard to guard against. This feeling is very bad. I want to lead people. Go check around Shengle City to see if you can figure out their intentions!"

How could Zhao Junsheng agree when he heard it?He reacted very violently, "No, how can you go out for an adventure if you are injured? Even if you are not injured, I will not allow you to go! It is too dangerous to do so. If you pass this hill and go north, you may encounter Rouran scouts and patrol rangers at any time. There is absolutely no room for negotiation, and I will never agree to this matter!"

Hua Mulan seemed to have known that Zhao Junsheng would react in this way. She stood silent for a moment, turned around and looked at him and said, "If we don't know the intention of the Rouran people, what's the use of building this city wall so strong? ?Once the imperial court is defeated as a whole in the battle against Rouran, how can we be spared? Brother Junsheng, we can’t just think about our own safety. We can only be safe when Dawei is safe! Now we are in a situation where we are passively beaten. The feeling makes me very uncomfortable, even fidgeting! You are also the person who leads the soldiers and you should understand how I feel. Now that I am the owner of this Nantian Castle, I am responsible for the lives of all the people here. I can’t let them die unexplained one day. white!"

Zhao Junsheng really didn't know what to say. Is Hua Mulan's ideological awareness too high or is he too selfish?He took a deep breath and put his hands on Hua Mulan's shoulders: "Mulan, I understand your worries and foresight, but these things are not something that you, a small team leader, should think about. This is the emperor, the court princes, and the Jinling camp." Your coach, General Yasuhara, should consider that you and your team of less than 100 people can't control the overall situation, understand?"

"You can say that I am irresponsible, you can say that I am greedy for life and fear death, you can also say that I have no ambitions! Yes, I am such a person, I don't want anything, as long as you can be safe and sound, all I want is a wife and children. Is there something wrong with my life? You are my fiancée, so I have to take care of you and protect you from accidents!"

"You...you are right!" Hua Mulan said with tears in her eyes, turned and left quickly.

"Mulan, Mulan..." Zhao Junsheng chased after Hua Mulan, no matter how he called Hua Mulan, he didn't turn his head and walked into the room, locking himself in the room and not coming out.

Zhao Junsheng walked out of the fort with a dejected expression and stood on the hill facing the wind, looking at the mountains hidden in the haze in the north.

Lu Xuanbo came over and stood beside him for a long time and said, "Master, you shouldn't lose your temper at the leader of the flower team. The leader of the flower team is right, and you are right, too, it's just that the starting point is different!"

"I know!"

Zhao Junsheng exhaled and said: "Old Lu, I plan to take a few people to the north to investigate the military situation of the Rouran people. Mulan wants to go. I can understand her but I can't let her go! You stay here. Your martial arts are not suitable for the wide and open space." This battlefield is full of bows, horses, spears, broadswords, and big swords. One move will kill people. If you go, it won't do much. Stay and help me protect Mulan and watch our soldiers! That's all. I have decided to call Gao Xiu and Xue An, I have something to tell him!"

"Master..."

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand firmly.

Lu Xuanbo clasped his fists and retreated.

Soon Gao Xiu and Xue An both came over holding the hilts of their swords, stood still and clasped their fists: "Captain, are you looking for a subordinate?"

"Zihao, Xiuda, I decided to take a few people to find out the details of Rouran people. I don't know if you dare to go north with me?" Zhao Junsheng turned around while speaking.

Both Gao Xiu and Xue An looked at each other. Gao Xiu clasped his fists in a deep voice and replied: "It's nothing more than a fight when we met Rouran Detective Cavalry. How dare the captain dare to go to his subordinates? I don't know when to start?"

"An hour later!"

Xue An also clasped his fists and said, "Captain Du and Brother Gao are going to

Wouldn't it be too lonely if I didn't go and stay? "

"That's good, Xiuda, go and ask the cook to prepare three days of dry food for the three of us, Zihao, go and prepare bows, horses and arrows, tents and blankets to keep out the cold!"

"Take orders!" The two of them clasped their fists and retreated.

An hour later, three people and six horses walked down the hill slowly. Zhao Junsheng got on his horse and turned his head to look up the hill. He saw Lu Xuanbo and others standing on the hill looking at the three of them. Fly away.

At night, Hua Mulan came out of the room with an oil lamp in hand, met Huahai, and Huahai clasped her fists and said, "The team leader has dinner, shall I bring you the room?"

"You don't have to go to the camp to eat with your brothers!"
