Chapter 189

The fire lasted for more than an hour before it gradually stopped.

Sea breeze, everywhere is full of unspeakable burnt smell, mixed with an inexplicable stench, making people dizzy, speechless nausea.

In the eye, it's dark everywhere. In many places, you can see the silhouette of the human figure, but unfortunately, it's no longer the shape.

Maybe it was the fire that changed the microclimate. The clouds gradually gathered in the sky, and the original bright sky gradually darkened.

Li Yuanqing stood on the lookout tower above the gate tower, quietly overlooking the residual battlefield not far away.

A breeze swept by, Li Yuanqing slightly frowned, but his eyes were particularly fierce.

Today, this fire is burning happily, but it has consumed a lot of inventory. Just now, statistics have shown that the golden juice pottery pots and kerosene bombs have consumed nearly half of the total consumption, and other things like large oil and arrows have also consumed a lot.

Fortunately, the Jin army did not attack the city in a frenzied manner. In terms of gunpowder, it was not used for the time being, and there was still a lot of stock.

This also gave Li Yuanqing a lot of confidence.

War requires not only the bravery of the soldiers, but also the logistics and supplies.

To tell you the truth, even Li Yuanqing was a little tired after years of fighting, not to mention the officers and soldiers below.

But Li Yuanqing also knows that the initiative of this matter is not in his own hands. If he wants to change, he can only beat these dog scraps in pain. If they are afraid of beating them, they will not dare to act recklessly.

In the city, most of the soldiers rest in the corner. Countless auxiliary soldiers and civilian men are coming and going, constantly carrying various materials.

Even after winning the battle, the Tartars have not retreated, and the soldiers dare not slack off. Even if they have a rest, they should keep one eye open and be ready for the next attack of Tartars.

Li Yuanqing took a long breath. Fortunately, during the past few days, there were not too many casualties in the Ming army in the city, and the supplies were still full. All affairs were on the track, and his side still maintained enough initiative.

"Yuanqing, it's going to rain." Chen Zhong did not know when he came behind Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing was stunned and stretched out his hand into the air. Sure enough, there was already a drizzle of rain in the sky, falling in his palm. It was clear and cool, and soon disappeared.

"Ha ha. Good rain. Wash this day and earth, save to see disgusting people. " Li Yuanqing smiles and caresses the carved wooden handrail in front of him.

Chen Zhong sighed and patted Li Yuanqing on the shoulder. You don't have to think too much. God won't blame you. "

Li Yuanqing can't help smiling, but he also admires Chen Zhong's carefulness. This elder brother is not in vain.

"Don't worry, brother. I'm all right. These Tartars, in my eyes, are no different from pigs and dogs. How can I be distracted by these dog scum? "

Seeing that Li Yuanqing's expression didn't look different, Chen Zhong put down his heart and said with a smile, "it's a pity that these heads of the class are. But they are all achievements. "

Li Yuanqing smiles, "no way. To keep the city is our greatest achievement. "

Chen Zhong nodded and looked at the sky with some worry: "Yuanqing, do you think it will rain? Like last time? "

Once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well.

Chen Zhong was frightened by the storm. He was a little nervous when he saw the rain.

Li Yuanqing smiles, "this should be OK. The storm season is over. Let's go, brother. I still have the wine. Let's go and have a few drinks

Chen Zhong also a smile, "call Lao Zhang."

Two people met one eye, is a smile, the atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot.

Most of the houses on the north wall have been demolished. Li Yuanqing has no place to have a good rest these days. The camp is built behind the city gate.

Now, it's raining, and it's impossible for the Jin army to attack the city. The three men have finally had a time to rest.

Zhang pan is commanding the soldiers to cover the catapult and catapult with cowhide. Through today's fire, Zhang pan really understands why Li Yuanqing put so much effort into these things. Now, these things are his treasures.

"Lao Zhang, go and have a drink." Chen Zhong greets Zhang pan.

"You two wait for me. I'll get these babies ready." Zhang pan didn't have time to greet the two people. He hastened to call his relatives and soldiers together to cover these treasures and prevent them from getting wet by the rain.

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong looked at each other with a relaxed smile on their faces.

After waiting for a long time, the three returned to the camp.

Li Yuanqing took out two jars of old wine, which were originally used as weapons, and filled the bowls for Zhang pan and Chen Zhong himself. Finally, it was his own bowl.

"Come on, two brothers, do this bowl." Li Yuanqing held up the wine bowl, motioned to the two people and drank it down in one gulp.

Zhang pan and Chen Zhong also drank up the wine in the bowl. Zhang pan laughed, "Yuanqing, Lao Chen, have a good time. Ha ha ha. I haven't been so happy for a long time. "In this era, there is almost no entertainment.

The literati are still better, such as Li Yuanqing, Zhang pan, Chen Zhong and so on, but there are few entertainments.

Besides wine, the biggest entertainment is probably only at night

Such a high-intensity life, no one is a saint, Li Yuanqing also need to use alcohol to stimulate his tired nerves.

"Wine is a good thing." Li Yuanqing comfortably belched, "but we can't drink more. Let's have two bowls each. The old slave will not give up after such a big loss today. "

Zhang Pan's face was a little red, "Yuanqing, I'm afraid of his ball. As long as they dare to come, we will dare to go back. This is Lushun, not Shenyang, nor Liaoyang, nor xipingbao. "

Li Yuanqing smiles, "not bad. Come on, let's go one more time. But you can't drink it all. You can only taste it in a small way. "

Zhang pan and Chen Zhong couldn't help laughing, and their arrogance soared to the sky.

……

The rain soon began to fall, "crackling" from the sky, dispelling the dirt in the world, and the air suddenly became fresh.

After drinking a little wine, Li Yuanqing's mental state improved a lot, but it was far from enough to rest assured.

Zhang pan went to check the logistics, while Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong came to the head of the city to continue to patrol and defend.

When it rains, the soldiers on the head of the city are miserable. There are not many places to shelter themselves from the rain. The soldiers can only cover their bodies with simple oilcloth. Three or five people get together to talk about today's war.

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong came over, and they all got up to salute.

With a smile, Li Yuanqing patted this one on the shoulder, thumped on the chest, and encouraged the army.

Chen Zhong is also like this, originally quiet city, suddenly a lot of excitement.

Although it was summer at this time, it was the end of summer. Lushun was in the north. The heavy rain brought down the temperature suddenly, and it had a faint chill.

Li Yuanqing is also thinking that the soldiers' equipment is too simple.

In this kind of weather, not to mention a raincoat, even a coir raincoat, cloak, it is extremely luxurious.

This is still in the city, back to the local situation.

Of course, Lushun is only a new establishment, and this situation would be much better if it was in the orthodox order of the imperial court.

However, Li Yuanqing did not hold much hope for the imperial court.

Don't mention supplies, as long as the big guys don't come to make trouble, thank God, burn high incense.

At this time, there was a soldier over there

Li Yuanqing was stunned and hurried to the crenels to check. Not far away, seven or eight people in coir raincoats were running towards the city. Two soldiers in front of him held two small white flags high.

Someone called out in Chinese: "don't shoot arrows, don't open spears. We are the envoys of Daikin. I want to meet three generals Li Yuanqing, Chen Zhong and Zhang pan. "

The figures were getting closer and closer, and soon they were 50 steps away.

The battlefield has not been cleared, and the ground is in a mess. Li Yuanqing clearly sees that the first short and strong officer is looking around in disgust and panic.

But the Ming army at the head of the city did not respond. They did not dare to come forward again. They just stood there and let the heavy rain wash their bodies.

"Messenger?" Chen Zhong's eyebrows could not help wrinkling, "Yuanqing, what do these dog days mean?"

Li Yuanqing's eyes narrowed slightly. He had already imagined several revenge methods after the old slave was angry, but he never thought that the old slave would send an envoy

Is this an olive branch?

Chen Zhong's face was overcast, and said in a low voice, "Yuanqing, do you want to shoot them? There's nothing good about these dog days. "

Li Yuanqing slowly shook his head, "the two countries are at war, do not kill envoys. Kill them, and we're down. Let them come first and see what the old slave means

Chen Zhong nodded and waved to the soldiers nearby, "let them come."

"Yes."

At the gate of the city was his headquarters, and soon his soldiers called out to the city: "that is the emissary. Come to the city first."

If the golden emissaries under the city were granted amnesty, they ran to the city.

Li Yuanqing suddenly said, "elder brother, do you think the general in the middle is familiar?"

"Familiar?"

Chen Zhong was stunned and looked at the General Li Yuanqing said. Unfortunately, at this time, he had already run to the gate of the city.

"Your army, please open the gate and let us in." The stout general bowed his hands and cried out to the Ming army at the gate of the city.

At this time, Chen Zhong saw his face clearly and patted his head, "that's right. It's an acquaintance. Isn't this a guerrilla surnamed sun in Guangning? At the beginning, it was he who added his own soldiers to us. "

Li Yuanqing also saw sun's face clearly. He didn't expect that it would be in this kind of scene to meet again that day.

It's interesting.However, in this situation, with rain and low visibility, how can soldiers easily open the gate?

A soldier on the head of the city cried: "the gate will not be opened. We'll put down the basket. Only one of you can come up. "

"What?" It's not up to sun to be angry.

Originally, he was full of anger when he was assigned this hard job that might lose his head, but even the small soldiers of Ming army in the head of the city dare to pinch him

How can he, who used to be a local villain in Guangning, accept it?

"We are the envoys of Da Jin. If we have something important to do, we would like to meet three generals Li Yuanqing, Zhang pan and Chen Zhong. Please open the gate and let us in." Sun Degong pressed down his anger and repeated to the soldiers of the Ming army at the head of the city.
