It's been seven days.

It's been seven days.

Under the fierce attack of the Jurchens, Cheng Ju, who had become a monk halfway through the journey, led a group of scattered soldiers and brave men to hold the city of Jianchan for seven days and seven nights. This is not the three days from the time he took power to the time before the Jurchens began to officially attack the city. Otherwise, this record would have to last for three days, reaching ten days.

What is the concept of seven days? Duan Pengju and Ma Wanli, a professional veteran, brought the servants who were full of staff and bowed their heads to the point of being in the midst of the Jurchens. The combined number of days between the two people did not exceed the single digits. If the Jurchens had not liked to divide their troops into the mountains and forests, they had wasted their time, and relying solely on these border counties to support the venue, the sky of the Protectorate's Mansion would have collapsed early.

The real pillar of the Lelang border army is undoubtedly the veteran general Wang Huan. But no one expected that a tough character who no one knew appeared in a city where hope no longer existed.

It was this scholar who was so sick that he even forgot who he was. The achievements he had made in these seven days made everyone look at him with admiration, whether it was the enemy or his own.

The Jurchens felt that they had encountered the first tough battle since entering Goryeo. Their own people were even more confused. The prefect Qiu Xu had never seen this Cheng Gong before, and they didn't even know who he was. Lelang County asked the Protectorate's Mansion three times and nine times to the Huitian Army, and only then did they learn that the Cheng Gong Gong was the unlucky leader who was rescued by a teenager in the fishing village of Jeju.

However, unlucky means not being very lucky, but it has little to do with his methods. At this time, the servants in Jianchan City who were obeyed by Cheng Ju had the most say, and this husband made them taste what it means to be miserable.

At that time, after learning that the Song Dynasty army had advanced to the point where they could communicate with birds, the Cheng Gong immediately revealed his identity to the county magistrate in Cao County, including the current situation of taking over the position of Wu County Magistrate. Then, he emphasized in a blood letter that if he unfortunately died and died in the country, the court must ask the court to thoroughly investigate whether Cheng Ju was killed by the enemy or died at the hands of the servants.

These are all carried out openly, and he is just doing it for everyone to see. In this way, even if someone has the courage to do so, he will not dare to think about assassination.

With such a powerful psychological deterrence, and with the receiving of nearly 100 guards from the former magistrate, Cheng Ju killed two border commanders who had hit the blade with lightning speed and passive battle. He suddenly shocked the generals. Cheng Ju finally achieved his goal: to control the situation in the Jianchan City in the shortest time.

After this contact, the Gaoli people understood that this time they found a father for themselves. They couldn't beat him or scold him. They had to be afraid of being beaten and were not scolded. They were just asking for trouble. But whenever they thought of their families who had already lived a landlord life in the back, everyone felt weak. In addition, they were even more reluctant to join the Jurchens, and they demoted themselves from a living "person" to a savage property (slave), so everyone had to pinch their noses and follow Cheng Ju to the darkness.

After the military settled the matter, the refugees were even more able to handle it. Cheng Ju dug out all the food and grass buried deep before the magistrate of Wu County, and first asked everyone to open their stomachs and eat it. Then he used the secret skills of the civil servants of the Song Dynasty to move them with emotion and reason, and the result was that the people in the city were really moved. For a time, the city was built and the food was delivered with the best efforts. Therefore, Cheng Ju, who felt that it was difficult to refuse the affection, took the opportunity to transform the defense structure of the inner and outer cities.

When everything was on the right track and finally calmed down and thought about it, Cheng Ju was actually a little scared. From the moment he was awakened that night, he was betting that bet was his life, and winning or losing. It was all maintained by the degree of awe of these foreign soldiers for the court.

He knew that he was a weak scholar, in front of more than 4,000 defeated soldiers, had no deterrence at all. The key was to look at the invisible power given to him by the motherland behind him. If the Song Dynasty had a position in the hearts of these people, or if it was insufficient deterrence, he would definitely not have survived that night.

Fortunately, the motherland is still strong, and these people are still afraid of it. Fortunately, their fate is still favored, and his brain disease has not worsened.

Judging from the current situation, this gamble is worth it. At least the plate is still in his hands. At this time, Nianchan County is still sticking hard to the "worm" and not losing it.

"Such a wild beast is even familiar with siege equipment, which is terrifying and terrifying! The threat will definitely be far more than that of the Khitans in the future! At least, the Khitans are not good at siegeing cities!"

Cheng Ju walked down the city tower and couldn't help but sigh, his tone of speaking was like a neighbor. If the personal troops around him were not all native Goryeo people, he would have liked to praise the court, this time he would have been very strategic! This giant who has always been slow in everything, this time he actually took the lead in Buzi Goryeo. The rise of this group of barbarians under the city was destined to cause storms in the north, and it would be better to prepare early than to be hasty in the future.

"The Jurchens are our old enemies. We have been on the border for hundreds of years and watched them step by step become stronger. Now the Khitans' Tokyo Road is gone, and they have all become the trophy of the Jurchens. Unfortunately, they are not satisfied and their troops are pointing directly at our hometown! My husband, what if the Song Dynasty finally... will not give up on us, the people who depend on us?"

The card army that protected Cheng Ju was originally a veteran in the Korean camp of the Fanluo Army. Later, he made military achievements and was promoted to the deputy card in the army. Then, by chance, he was assigned to the Wu County Magistrate as the head of the guard. His group of guards was different from the border army. They were organized in the Protectorate's Mansion, not Lelang County. In addition, this group of people came from the Fanluo Army, so they could not mention their loyalty. They could be called the Han army in the Korean army. When Cheng Ju asked them to act as executioners to arrest and kill two Korean commanders, the group of guards did not blink. Therefore, Cheng Ju was able to control the situation in the shortest time, and their group of people made great contributions.

Therefore, when Cheng Ju faced these loyal comrades who were stuttering Song words, who were born in Dongyi but were of the Song Dynasty, he not only did not feel ashamed, but instead felt unreasonable.

Although the Song Dynasty court truly had a foresight during that blank period, he really did not dare to guarantee whether he could continue to maintain this level in the future. He was afraid that all this in front of him was just a whim of the emperor. When the interest was gone, everything would be gone.

"No! Don't worry, if I'm here, the Jurchens can't get in!"

Although it was contrary to his introverted nature, Cheng Ju still made a harsh statement in the face of his comrades, but the Goryeo Army believed it after hearing this. After all, the record of these seven days cannot be faked. No matter how aggressive the Jurchens launched or what kind of siege equipment they used, this husband had a solution. Although he was rushed into the city by a powerful enemy more than once, he still could not escape the fate of returning home in front of the temporary fortifications of his husband.

Facing the longing eyes of his subordinates, Cheng Ju turned his head and asked, "Who do you understand the Jurchens?"

"I will understand at the end!" Pai Jun answered quickly when he saw the question.

"Let's go, we'll meet our prisoners!"

During these seven days, the Jurchens attacked the city more and more fiercely. As long as these savages got up to the city, they fought hard. They rarely saw anyone retreating after going up to the city. When Cheng Ju almost believed that these people were all human-shaped beasts, the veterans who participated in the previous battles solved his doubts. It turned out that if these people retreated and waited for them, the consequences of their own people were their own butcher knives.

So after a few days, the defenders caught many prisoners. At this time, Cheng Ju walked quickly to the place where the prisoners were imprisoned, and proposed that the captives were secretly led, and said to the accompanying army: "Translation to him and ask them if the Jurchens knew which country they were attacking now!"

"No need to translate, I can understand your speech, Song people!" The calm captive leader spoke, but Cheng Ju was shocked. The Jurchens understood Goryeo and Khitans were not a strange thing, but how could they catch any one of them and understand Song language so well?

Cheng Ju's surprise is not unreasonable. After all, the two countries had basically not had much dealing with each other for a hundred decades, so naturally not many people learned the other's language. It is clearly recorded that the last time the two sides contacted each other was the old almanac of the Jurchen tribe who sent people to buy horses from the Jurchen tribe shortly after the establishment of the Song Dynasty, and eventually brought back the ancestors of the birdmen of Shi Wengong's old employer, Zengtou City.

Just as Cheng Ju secretly guessed whether this person was a Jurchen general or not, the captive leader spoke: "Don't guess, I'm just an unknown man. What do you want to ask, just ask directly, because you and I are all covered in the blood of the Han people!"

How is that possible!!!

This barbarian with shaved hair actually called himself a Han Chinese? Cheng Ju couldn't believe such an unruly fact even after he dug his eyes, but at this time, Gao Li, who was beside him, spoke in person, and told him to believe and doubt for a while.

"Although this person is as ugly as the Jurchen barbarians, the barbarians are naturally fond of gold and silver earlobes. This person looks like this. It is very likely that he was a Han Er from Liao. After surrendering to the Jurchens, he worked hard for them!"

"What my follower said is true?" Cheng Ju asked with wide eyes. Seeing that the other party did not refute, he immediately said: "As a Han person, you are in the Han Dynasty, in the morning, Liao and Jin Dynasty, and have humiliated your ancestors! To this day, why not correct your mistakes and return to the Song Dynasty?"

"You guys in Song State have read too much and are full of unrealistic reading! Wait until your Zhao Song official family deserves their predecessors first, and then blame us!" The captive leader sneered:

"I advise you to stop helping the Goryeo people play the Song Dynasty sign everywhere. A broken flag and leaking everywhere. You still feel very majestic! The Jurchens, whenever they heard the captured Goryeo people claiming to be the Song army, they laughed. Everyone said the same thing. Who can't tell that they had unified the caliber in advance? You can't think about it. You're afraid of pretending to be the Song army and the Jurchens? They even got the brutal Khitans. Are you still afraid of you gentle and scum? Well, it's not easy to cross the ocean. Just go back for two years. Don't use the Goryeo people as guns!" (To be continued.)
