Riding the Pheonix Chapter 432: Collaborating with the enemy

The siege lasted for two days, but slowly stopped because the barbarians spent too much.

As night fell, Guo Xu was still drinking under the tower.

The person drinking with him was the small school responsible for protecting him.

In a besieged city, wine is a precious commodity. Except for those on duty who can take a few sips to warm themselves, others cannot share it.

The strong alcohol entered his throat, choking Guo Xu and causing him to cough.

It made the primary school laugh non-stop: "Have you never drank from a bar like this?"

Guo Xu waved his hand: "How come you haven't drunk it before? When I was a child, my family was very poor and couldn't afford to burn charcoal in the winter. I would study until midnight and be so cold that I couldn't stretch out my hands, so I would secretly take a sip of the home-brewed sour plum wine, tut tut. , that sour... Later, I won the exam and finally squeezed into the Hanlin Academy. Because the superior officer was not happy, I just gave up. In total, I haven’t touched alcohol in more than 20 years."

The principal asked in surprise: "So Mr. Guo also comes from a poor family?"

Guo Xu chuckled: "Do you think all the officials are gentry and strong men? I have suffered a lot, so I don't feel ashamed at all to be in a high position now, because I, old Guo, took my life. We worked hard!"

Why did he develop a lustful habit? The young boy Mu Shaoai once liked the girl next door, but his family was poor at that time. He just looked twice at her and his neighbors pointed at her widowed mother and scolded her. Later, when he became rich, he wanted to marry himself a wife and concubines with ten houses and eight rooms to serve his mother.

Who said that his mother was not lucky enough to have her daughter-in-law take care of her?

After talking about these old memories, Guo Xu got drunk and wiped away tears: "Brother, to tell you the truth, I came to this wretched place just to make my wife, my wife, and my children live a better life. I should do a bigger job as an official. When it comes to defending the home and the country, I have my head hung up on my belt, how can I expect to get so much. But if we can’t defend, our lives will be lost, how can we take care of them..."

The primary school teacher felt worried: "What the adults are saying is that when we work hard outside, don't we just want to earn a good life for our families and a good future for ourselves?"

The status of the two people was very different, but they soon started to talk about being brothers. After drinking, the principal hugged Guo Xu and called him: "I always thought those civil servants were disgusting before, but I didn't expect that there are people like me. Today I am old Brother, I will share my heart with you, and I will share my heart with you. As long as you are here, I will never let the barbarians’ arrows hit you, brother!"

Guo Xu laughed: "Brother, you must keep your word! I, Lao Guo, will leave my life to you!"

"Good brother, I have nothing to say!"

The two even sang songs.

"When a man is born in the world, he will become a prince when he is strong. He has made great achievements in war, how can he guard the old hill..."

As they sang, the soldiers who were still asleep also joined in. The rough singing echoed on the city wall, creating a solemn and solemn atmosphere.

In the corner tower, Mingwei asked: "Is this Mr. Guo actually born in poverty?"

Yang Shu sighed and said disdainfully: "Listen to what he is making up! He is indeed not a gentry, but his family also has more than a hundred acres of land, and he is considered a wealthy family. Why is he happy with the girl next door, but his widowed mother is betrayed by others? Scolding, he has had this problem since he was a boy, and even the maids who serve pen and ink have been taken away. When he talks about lies, he really doesn't blush at all!"

"You know so clearly."

"Of course, this kind of information is necessary in the Imperial City Department."

Ming Wei couldn't help laughing: "Mr. Guo is really flexible and flexible. He seemed to look down on military men before, but now he is making up lies and trying to get along with a junior officer. It seems he has made a decision!"

"Don't be anxious. If you want to trick him into jumping into the trap, you have to wait. We're just starting to fight. Su Tu won't give him a chance."

……

Su Tu launched his first attack, but it turned out to be in vain. He knew that he would not be able to win the gravel **** in the short term.

He is not in a hurry. The defenders will only lose morale as they defend the city, so it would be better to take some time first.

As a result, the two sides fought from time to time, and then withdrew their troops.

Guo Xu has become accustomed to going up to the city wall to watch battles, and now he can remain calm even if arrows are thrown at him.

While watching the battle, he was holding a small notebook and writing rapidly.

The officers and soldiers guarding the city were also accustomed to his presence, and would help him block the arrows when they came.

Every day, Guo Xu would carve a mark on the outer wall of the turret.

When he was more than thirty days old, he went out in the middle of the night and saw two soldiers hiding in the corner of the city wall, whispering. From time to time, he poked his head outside to see, and one of them was pulling up the rope.

"What are you doing?" Guo Xu shouted.

Is this collusion with the enemy? If they let two soldiers pull the enemy up and break through the impenetrable city gate, wouldn't their ancient achievements be ruined in one day! !

Guo Xu was so angry that even Zongxu became angry. I thought to myself, thanks to your old sect, who is known as the number one general in Daqi, such a flaw happened. If it hadn't happened to be a tribute at this time, wouldn't everyone have finished the fun together?

He shouted so loudly that the soldier trembled with fright. As soon as he loosened his grip, the thing fell down.

There were other officers and soldiers on guard who heard the sound and rushed over.

"Master Guo, what's wrong?" These officers and soldiers were already very familiar with Guo Xu.

Guo Xu pointed at the two soldiers angrily: "They were sneaking around just now and didn't know what they were trying to pull up. What's going on? Isn't it during the night watch that the whole team has to be together? If not If I see this, it will cause a big disaster!"

The leading general glanced at him and asked sternly: "Where are your corps commanders? Why are there only two of them?"

The officers and soldiers in his team lay down on the battlements, looked out for a few times, and exclaimed: "Sir, they are barbarians!"

The two soldiers turned pale with fright and hurriedly said: "Sir, we have something inside..."

"No amount of inside information is worth a military order!" The general has already put his hand on his sword, "Call your corps commander quickly!"

"What are you doing? What are you doing?" A sleepy voice came from the corner tower, and then Yang Shu came out, "What happened? You are making such a fuss."

"Young Master Yang," Guo Xu interjected, "You are here, why haven't you seen me? These two people are collaborating with the enemy! If I hadn't been vigilant, we might have been betrayed after guarding the city for so many days. ."

"Collaborating with the enemy?" Yang Shu glanced at them and touched his chin in surprise, "Are you mistaken? These are my people."

The general has already asked people to pull up the rope. ~IndoMTL.com~A small basket is attached to it.

"Sure enough, you are collaborating with the enemy and the bandits!" Guo Xu was furious, "Young Master Yang, you are too lax! Or are you trying to collude with the enemy?"

Yang Shu sneered: "What did I think it was? You can see what it is before you tell me."

Guo Xu opened the lid and saw a coarse porcelain jar inside, which looked familiar to him. He opened it and took a look...

"Pickles?" The general on patrol was puzzled, "Mr. Yang, what are they doing with pickles?"

"Exchange food with the barbarians! Aren't you tired of eating pickles every day? They have mutton!"
