Novel: Geng Gong Bai Well

In 75 AD, the city of Shule in the western region.

At the head of the high city, the flag of the Khan army was flying in the wind, and at this time, the sun had set in the sky, and the clouds gathered in the sky, as if soaked in blood and oozing a thick red.

The brutal and fierce battle was temporarily over, the Han army once again repelled the attack of the Xiongnu, scattered enemy soldiers collected the corpses of their companions under the city, and Lieutenant Geng Gong ordered the crossbow shooting to be stopped.

The Khan army defending the city had three firepower configurations, the innermost one was a well-trained large knife team, occasionally a few Xiongnu climbed up to the city, only a round knife, it was sent back to their hometown, Geng Gong's knife in his hand at this moment there was a drop of blood flowing down, a sound like a water droplet; the middle defense was a rolling wood stone, the log and stone were collected from the mountain next to it a few months ago, prepared in advance; the outermost layer, which was also the most frightening to the Xiongnu was the crossbow shooting.

The crossbow of the Han Army is light and easy to operate, and can be fired with one hand, with great power and long range, which can reach three hundred meters. Geng Gong also let the soldiers apply poison on the arrows, and when they reached the firing range, the black pressure on the city wall was shot down, the Huns cried wolf, and when they were shot, most of them were killed on the spot, and occasionally those who escaped by chance were also in severe pain, and then the wounds festered, and could not support for a few days, and at night, the wounds hurt more and more, the whole military camp was a cry of mourning, more and more eerie and terrifying, and the Xiongnu who believed in the gods all thought that the Khan army had the protection of the gods, and they had been timid for three points before the battle.

Geng Gong put down the knife in his hand and put the corpse of a Xiongnu still under the city wall, and the fallen soldiers, whether enemy or enemy, should be respected, which is also the consensus of both sides, and should be restrained according to customs.

He stepped on the battlements of the city wall with his left foot, turned sideways, and looked at his soldiers with torch-like eyes, their bodies were somewhat emaciated, their faces were haggard, their lips were chapped, and they could not see a trace of blood, as if after a gust of wind, they would cease to exist; but they stood proudly, their weapons tightened, and their eyes spewed fire...

"Lieutenant Colonel: The well in the city has been drilled for ten years, and no water has been seen", Sima Shixiu's report broke the sinking.

Geng Gong took off his armor, and tonight he was going to personally participate in the drilling of the well.

The city had been interrupted for many days, and the Huns cut off the water source of Shule City.

The sun rose reluctantly, and the well was fifteen feet deep, and there was still no water.

Geng Gong dressed up and went forward to pray to the Sun: Geng Gong, a lieutenant of the Pengji Colonel Geng Gong, han Yongping for seventeen years, came here to the western region of Saiwai, pacified the rebellion of the four sides, and promoted the prestige of our Great Han army, this spring, the large army class division, Gong led hundreds of people to garrison Jinpu City in the rear country of Cheshi, guarded the throat of the Tianshan Mountains, and made horns with the guan pet of Liuzhongcheng in the former state of Cheshi to prevent the Xiongnu invasion, but as soon as the army retreated, the Xiongnu surrounded Jinpucheng in groups, and in order to break the siege, Gong led a death squad of one hundred people, taking advantage of the storm to go to rob the camp, hunt and kill the Xiongnu leaders, and the rest of the people collapsed. Although the victory was great, but the Xiongnu would have to return sooner or later, Jinpu City could not be firmly defended, Gong led the troops to shule the city here, so the land was a fortress built for our Han army that year, by the mountains and rivers, the terrain is dangerous, it is suitable for a long time.

The Xiongnu returned, and after months of fierce fighting, the city was exhausted, but it was boiling crossbows, eating its tendons, and the warriors died one by one, but Shule was still in our hands.

Now that the water source has been cut off, the warriors drink the manure of the horse and dig a well to get water, and there is still no water in the fifteen zhang.

Woohoo! Can we be loyal? What is righteousness?

There seemed to be a wind moving, and everyone was excited.

Geng Gong hit the dust on his body a few times, and said goodbye: Gong one person, not sorry, but the soldiers under my command, after years and months, are in the land of ten thousand deaths, Taishan collapsed in front of him and did not move, this is the soul of my Khan army, if there is an accident, who can bring it back with me, let the bright moon breeze in my hometown be with it.

We are all soldiers, serving the battlefield to be suitable, but we have tasted the support of the king of cheshi, the queen is a descendant of the Great Han, the virginity is the same, now leave a letter, a few strands of green silk, Tuo Gong and so on to the temple, comfort the father and elder.

Such a loyal martyr, oh! Can I perceive the gods of the Great Han Empire?

Is the wind still moving? Or is there a sound of water flowing underground?

Geng Gong paused, burned incense and prayed again:

In order to move the hearts of our army, the Xiongnu sent emissaries to allow me to marry the king of the White House and the princess, and I will count the plan, seize its city head, drink its blood, and roast its flesh, but in fact, in a desperate situation, inspire the hearts of the army, and show the determination to fight to the end! If there is any difference, please surrender to me and give me a blessing.

Whiskers, flying springs out.

The crowd embraced each other, and there was no way out, and all the mountains shouted "Long live."

Outside the city, a piece of black pressure, fierce Xiongnu cavalry patrolled... did not dare to approach.
