Chapter 198
"Then can you tell me why other recruits can work and rest normally, but my brothers and I have to undergo inhuman training every day?"
Zhu Wei was unwilling to be dismissed like this. He wanted to say inhuman torture, but finally changed his words.
After hearing his words, the centurion showed helplessness. He pointed to the passing recruits with a wry smile, "Look for yourself, they look like paper men, can they withstand intensive training?"
Zhu Wei followed his gaze, he knew the physical condition of the recruits, but even so, these were not reasons to torture them.
According to what he said, is it his fault that he and his brothers are strong?
"Long-term high-intensity training, the body of my brothers and I can't stand it!"
The centurion patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, "If you persist, I will report your situation to Lord Sima, but I can't guarantee you how the higher-ups arrange it. What do you think of this way?"
Zhu Wei sighed, "That's the only way to go, Sir Sima is going to bother you so much for us."
The centurion nodded and looked at him with gratified eyes: "The group of people in your village are really not simple. They are all strong, have good health and have great righteousness, which is really rare."
"The other recruits are thin and weak. Although the recruits have entered the barracks, we have to take care of their bodies during this period before we can properly increase the training tasks. This process will take a lot of time, and we can't force them."
Zhu Wei: "."
If you can't force other recruits to come, just drill their brothers like hell!
"However." The centurion changed the subject and began to care about them again, "Although you are in good health, I don't think the food in the barracks is as good as when you were at home, so in addition to your usual training, you also have to Pay attention to your health, although the food in the military camp is not good, but if you are full, you can rest assured!"
Zhu Wei didn't want to talk anymore at this moment, and they were not idiots, they just wanted to reduce the intensity of training a little.
-
The scene is all together, and the palace gate is locked.
Jiankang spent 80 days safely under siege.
The nearly -day siege was not fatal, but extremely torturous.
In the first year of his ascension to the throne, the new emperor had internal strife and external worries, and hoped for auspiciousness from heaven, so he discussed with his ministers and changed the reign name to Mingxi, and this year is the first year of Mingxi.
On the tenth day of March in the first year of Mingxi, the emperor's bedroom in the Jiankang Palace was dimly lit, indicating that Emperor Mingxi had fallen asleep early.
The personal eunuch who was on guard at night stood motionless three feet away from the dragon couch. In such a dead of night, the eunuch began to feel drowsy.
In a daze, he felt a pair of dark eyes staring at him like the King of Hades. The eunuch who watched the night woke up from his dream. , the eyeballs stared at him without blinking.
"Ahhh!"
The night watch eunuch was so frightened that he screamed out loud!
There were screams in the emperor's bedroom, and it was definitely a terrifying thing in the middle of the night.
Before the eunuch's cry fell, the door of the palace was pushed open from the outside, and all the eunuchs and imperial guards on duty outside rushed in.
Dai Yi's adoptive son, an eunuch named Dai Jie, was on duty outside tonight. He was the last one to rush in. Because it was too crowded when he rushed in, he raised his hand to straighten the three mountain caps on his head, and faced the night watch eunuch Terrified eyes.
"What's going on? What's your name in the middle of the night? If you disturb the emperor because of this, you will die!"
Speaking of the emperor, Dai Jie turned his head and looked at the dragon couch. It doesn't matter, there is no one on the dragon couch! ! !
Dai Jie's heart skipped a beat, and he unexpectedly met Emperor Ming Xi's sunken eyes.
"Your Majesty!" He raised his hand to cover his beating heart, but just as he raised his hand, he suddenly remembered that this action was not right in front of the emperor.
He moved forward cleverly, and calmly supported Emperor Ming Xi, "Your Majesty, why did you get off the ground? Did this servant disturb your lucid dream?"
Emperor Ming Xi's skinny body seemed to be relieved, and the weight of his whole body was on Dai Jie's body.
Seeing that the emperor was not in danger, the other eunuchs and imperial guards took two steps back and stood still.
Before turning around, Emperor Ming Xi said with his withered lips: "Pull it out and chop it up!"
Emperor Ming Xi's words stunned everyone present.
The imperial guards were the first to react. They stepped forward and gagged the night watch eunuch and escorted him out.
The rest of the imperial guards checked the bedroom and retreated after finding no danger.
Daijie waited for Emperor Mingxi to sit down, only to find that the back of his obscene clothes were wet, "Your Majesty, your clothes are wet with sweat, I will help you change one."
Emperor Ming Xi felt uncomfortable all over, his lips were chapped, and most importantly, he was still in fear. The nightmare just now really scared him to death.
The rebel army besieged the city, and after a few months, he gradually developed the habit of being haunted by nightmares every night. Whenever he fell asleep, he would be haunted by nightmares.
The scenes in each dream are surprisingly similar, and it is the ending of everyone when Jiankang City was destroyed.
Being haunted by such nightmares made him tense every day, and his body also collapsed, and he lost weight visibly with the naked eye.
Now it's almost a paper man!
Emperor Ming Xi changed into dry clothes and leaned back, he patted the dragon couch under his buttocks, "Dai Jie, do you like this position under my body?"
Hearing his sensitive words, Dai Xie was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, I'm a poor servant, even if you give me 1 guts, I won't even think about it!"
Emperor Ming Xi stared at the night outside the window, and said faintly: "You don't dare to think about it. Everyone in the world is fascinated by supreme power, but they don't know that this position is the most deadly reminder in the world!"
Since sitting in this position, after the initial novelty, he feels that every day of his life is a torment!
He thought about getting rid of it, but he was afraid that he would not be able to explain to his ancestors when he went underground, and it would be even more difficult to live after dying. This kind of pain tortured him every day, making his life worse than death!
Interpretation: "." He can't feel this feeling, because he has already lost his chance!
It seemed that Emperor Ming Xi didn't expect him to answer, so he asked again: "Have the rebels outside the city attacked the city today?"
Dai Jie looked out of the window, "Your Majesty, the rebels did not attack the city during the day, but now it's dark, and they wouldn't be so stupid as to attack the city late at night!"
"You all think they won't be stupid. Attacking the city late at night?"
Emperor Mingxi sat up impatiently, "Siege the city late at night! Siege the city late at night! You all think they won't do this, but I just dreamed about it"
Dai Jie didn't understand why Emperor Ming Xi suddenly got excited, "Your Majesty!"
Emperor Ming Xi ignored the explanation, he shouted outside the door: "Come on! Come on!"
"emperor!"
The imperial guards rushed in again, seeing that Emperor Ming Xi looked a little crazy, with doubts in his eyes.
Emperor Ming Xi landed on the ground with bare feet. He pointed to the door and shouted impatiently: "Go and tell the generals defending the city to strengthen their vigilance. Everyone don't sleep tonight, the rebels will attack the city tonight!"
Although the imperial guards didn't know why the emperor knew that the rebels were attacking the city tonight, they did not prevent him from carrying out the emperor's order.
After he left, Emperor Mingxi ordered the other guards to inform Zhu Chong, the general of the Gyeonggi battalion, and Master Chen, the commander of the Wucheng army, to let them lead people to the city wall overnight to help defend the city with the generals.
After arranging the tasks, Emperor Ming Xi realized that his obscene clothes were wet with sweat again.
He leaned weakly on the dragon couch, allowing Dai Xie to change his clothes.
This night was spent safely and soundly amidst the apprehension of the crowd. On the morning of the second day, some courtiers were dissatisfied with the emperor's actions last night.
"Your Majesty, Jiankang City's food and grass consumption is reduced by one day. Do you know that last night's hard work and labor force consumed at least three more days of food and grass?"
"Last night, the Gyeonggi Daying Camp and the Wucheng Bingma Division shouldn't be all soldiers, making people panic in the city, which is not good for defending the city!"
Dai Yi reminded the ministers, "That's not called all grass and trees are soldiers, that's called being prepared and planning for a rainy day!"
Emperor Ming Xi yawned while sitting on the dragon chair, and Dai Yi who was standing next to him instantly understood his meaning.
"If you have something to play, you will retreat if there is nothing!"
Master Zhang gritted his teeth and took a step forward, "Your Majesty, Jiankang City has lasted for nearly three months now, and the consumption of food and grass has almost reached its limit. The rebels outside the city have not shown any signs of retreating; The food is only enough to last for half a month at most, should we change the three meals to two meals next?"
Emperor Mingxi coughed a few times, and looked at Master Zhang when he recovered, "Even if the whole city saves food and clothing, it can't reduce the three meals of the soldiers guarding the city. Local officials, don't you know that you have been an official for many years, and you don't know if your physical exertion can't keep up? Strength to kill the enemy?"
"This..." Mr. Zhang has an ugly face. This kind of thankless job is very difficult to carry out.
"Okay, defending the city is a big deal, so the local officials should hurry up and make arrangements."
After Emperor Mingxi finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the apse without giving the courtiers a chance to refute.
Master Zhang: "."
He looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Officials next to him, and shook his head: "The emperor chose to avoid such an important issue of food and grass."
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials sighed: "With such a personality, even if he wants to take responsibility, it is difficult. A strong personality is not suitable for everyone!"
That night, Emperor Mingxi had the same dream again. Jiankang City was broken, and the rebel army invaded the palace, forcing him to have nowhere to escape. The rebel leader Qin Lang pierced his heart with a sword.
Emperor Ming Xi was dripping with cold sweat, woke up from the nightmare, panting heavily, with a bad premonition lingering in his heart.
"The nightmare of the broken city has been in my dream since last night. I was cut off my head last night, and my heart was pierced today. Do I have to dream of being cut in half tomorrow?"
This bad premonition has been lingering in his heart, so that he will never sleep again.
The night guard eunuch brought a cup of warm water for Emperor Ming Xi to drink, and then waited for him to change his sweaty obscene clothes.
"Boom boom boom!"
The dense drumming spread far from the night sky.
The sound of the drum seemed to hit the apex of everyone's heart.
When Emperor Ming Xi heard the sound of the drum, his mind buzzed and his body couldn't help shivering, "Big companion, what's going on outside?"
Dai Yi was on duty tonight, and walked in quickly when he heard Emperor Ming Xi's voice.
"Reporting to the emperor, this is the sound of drums on the city wall. It should be that the rebels outside the city are attacking the city again. We have to wait for the outside to pass in the news about the specific situation!"
Even if there is a guess, Dai Yi has dealt with the emperor for decades, and his cautious character prevents him from speaking out the guess.
The news on the city wall came in quickly, and sure enough, as Dai Yi guessed, the rebels outside the city did not know what was wrong and launched a general attack on the city tonight.
The momentum is huge, never seen before!
Emperor Mingxi's face changed suddenly, and he walked up and down the hall regardless of his weak body, muttering, "How could this be? How could this be? In the dream, the half-cut was not finished yet, why did the rebels attack the city again? ? Are they really going to fight me to the death?"
If Tan Lang knew what he was thinking, he would have sneered, the fish may die, but the net will not be broken!
"Your Majesty, calm down and rest for a while, or your body won't be able to take it!" Dai Yi reminded.
After Ming Xi's reminder, he realized that his hands and feet were weak, and he was indeed tired.
"Big Companion, pass on the decree to keep all the gates of the palace closed. Palace people are not allowed to move around without the decree. Anyone who resists the decree will be executed!"
"Pass the decree again, let the Gyeonggi Daying and Wucheng Bingmasi go up to the city wall to defend against the enemy! Those who don't obey the order, beheaded!"
After the decree was issued, everyone in the palace could only wait for the news from the front line.
Emperor Ming Xi had never been out of Gyeonggi in his entire life, since he escaped from disaster and came to Jiankang, he was protected all the way.
A man who has not experienced strong winds and waves has a cowardly personality and is not suitable to be a king.
Just like Emperor Mingxi's current situation.
He has no eyes on the strength of the forces in each city, and the specific situation of the rebels outside the city can only be communicated through letters.
In Jiankang City, not only the palaces were paying attention to the battle situation, but all the people in the city were anxiously waiting for the good news of repelling the enemy.
It's just that the east is spitting white, and the smoke outside the city is still in the air.
Emperor Ming Xi pinched the center of his brows and stood firm all night, he was too tired!
"Your Majesty, after one night, the rebels should have retreated, why don't you rest with some liquid food?" Dai Yi sent someone to Yushanfang to bring some simple breakfast.
"Then eat something." Emperor Ming Xi felt a little hungry, so he waved his hand and said, "Except for the big companion, you all go out."
"Your Majesty, it's not good, Your Majesty, the rebels are attacking!"
At this moment, the eunuch on duty outside the gate ran in in a panic: "The rebels are attacking the Xihua Gate with their main force, and the combined forces of several parties are no match for the 30 soldiers of the rebels!"
"what?!"
Emperor Mingxi stood up suddenly, looked outside suddenly, and then looked at Daiyi again.
The other eunuchs lowered their heads in horror, not daring to look at Emperor Ming Xi.
Dai Yi reminded him: "Your Majesty, at present we should block or lock the doors leading out of the palace, so as to delay the rebels from attacking the palace!"
Emperor Ming Xi came back to his senses with a shock, "Come here, pass on my will. The imperial guards are divided into five teams, one team protects me, and the other teams guard the four gates of the four palaces! Come to defend the palace, let them resist outside the gate!"
The moment of life and death has come, but who will win and who will lose?
Dayu's soldiers and horses fought and retreated, and when they retreated to the entrance of the Meridian Gate of the Xinggong Palace, they found that the door was closed tightly, and no one in the Xinggong Palace opened the escape door for them.
I can only watch helplessly as the soldiers who fell behind were killed by the enemy!
That tragic scene directly stimulated the hearts of the soldiers, but the people inside the Meridian Gate were so indifferent to them!
Chill!
