Outside the city of Yanqing, the raging fire separated the army of the Northern Desert, and Wu Lihan, who was sitting on a tall horse, tried to cross on a horse, but unfortunately the horse was not satisfactory, and it was very sorry for its life, so it kept snorting to protest.

Helti, the main general who came with Ullihan, looked around and ordered: "Dig loess to extinguish the fire." ”

As soon as he gave this order, and the soldiers were about to move, the Mobei army on the city wall began to attack with a rain of arrows.

For a moment, the scene was chaotic, and from time to time there was the popping sound of sharp arrows piercing into the flesh and the cries of pain from the stabbed people.

A counterattack was imperative, and Helti opened his bow and fired three arrows in unison, and the arrows swished off the string and plunged into the flagpole with a thud of flames.

The flag fell, and the soldiers on the city wall hurriedly helped themselves up and changed positions.

I don't know who shouted, and a more dense rain of arrows went away.

The fire gradually became smaller, after all, the oil could not help but burn.

Herti raised his hand and yelled, "Enter"

The large forces advanced in a phalanx, with shields in front.

"Bell, bell" is the sound of an arrow being blocked by a shield.

The city gate was getting closer and closer, and the footsteps of the soldiers in the northern desert were getting faster and faster with the password.

The soldiers on the city wall did not give up the attack, and the arrows were still very dense, but they could no longer stop the footsteps of the soldiers in the northern desert.

At this time, a man appeared on the city wall, a woman in military uniform.

This woman is Yuan Wenxin, she looked at the wall for a while, and said loudly: "Pay attention to protection, hold on, reinforcements will come soon." ”

After finishing speaking, Chu Xun, who was following her, said, "Miss, you go down to rest first, so as not to be accidentally injured here." ”

Yuan Wenxin glanced at him, "You don't have to follow me, by the way, has Yu'er prepared the things that have been prepared?" ”

"If you go back to the eldest lady, you are ready, just wait for them to get closer..."

Before he finished his words, an arrow almost stabbed Yuan Wenxin with a whoosh, and he hurriedly pulled it: "Miss, be careful." ”

The other soldiers defending the city also bowed their hands and said, "Miss, you better go down, it's dangerous here." ”

Yuan Wenxin also realized that she was no longer the responsive girl she was many years ago, sighed, and said, "Then you should also pay attention to safety, and remember what Yu'er explained." ”

"Miss, please rest assured, your subordinates will never let them have a chance to break through the city gate." All the soldiers.

After Yuan Wenxin went down, the person in command was replaced by Chu Xun, the younger brother of Chu Sui, the current secretary of the military department.

The brothers had been following Yuan Xingwu in the early years, so they were also very good at commanding operations.

I saw him giving orders in an orderly manner, and after a while, the soldiers in the Northern Desert slowed down again.

On the other side, after taking the poison, Chen Ziyi and the others hurried back.

After studying the terrain and wind direction, they decisively piled up fallen leaves and lit a fire.

Although the wind was not strong, the effect was obvious, and the smoke had drifted away. The soldiers kept adding half-dried leaves.

Chen Ziyi glanced in the direction of the city gate, turned around and said, "Move fast, add fallen leaves, fan the wind." ”

The soldiers responded in unison, moving faster than before.

After a while, Chen Ziyi looked anxiously again, and said, "There has been no change at all, and I don't know if Xiao Jing's idea is useful." ”

Li Ziyu was very calm, he stood up a little and looked at the direction of the city gate and said: "If it's useful, of course it's good, if it's useless, then don't be afraid, and you have to defend the city gate desperately." ”

Chen Ziyi nodded, he had just counted the wounded, and they could still integrate three thousand troops, if they fought hard...

Although there is no chance of winning, it will not make the Tartars feel better.

………

Lan Jing was originally concentrating on cleaning the wounds of the wounded, but suddenly, she remembered that the smoke was light and not confined to one room, would the effect not be achieved?

If the Tartars find out about their intentions, will it be against them?

Li Ziyu's child, both on the outside and on the inside, is a rare good child, if she is killed because of her inconsiderate thinking, she will not die of guilt.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly stood up and walked to Lin Chu's side: "Lin Chu, the plan I just thought of has a loophole, I'm not at ease, let's go back and take a look." ”

Lin Chu stood up after bandaging a wounded man, "Then I'll go back and take a look, don't worry." ”

Lan Jing stretched out his hand to pull him, "Let's go together." ”

Lin Chu hurriedly shook his head, "If there is a fight, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you." ”

"You don't need to take care of me, I'm also a master, okay?" After Lan Jing finished speaking, he turned around and asked Chen Sheng to take the iron rod she had given him for safekeeping before leaving.

Chen Sheng was opposed to Lan Jing's decision to go to the city gate.

Lan Jing rolled his eyes and said directly: "Chen Sheng obeys the order, hand over the iron rod, and don't talk nonsense." ”

Chen Sheng wanted to cry a little without tears, and after silently handing over the iron rod, he gave Lin Chu, who was standing beside Lan Jing, a hard look.

It's not that Lin Chu doesn't understand his eyes, but he is also very helpless, his wife is too stubborn.

Coming to the carriage, Zhang Biao said: "Shizi, you take the carriage, and your subordinates rush back first, do you have anything to explain?" ”

Lan Jing glanced at the carriage and then at the fire ear on the side, it stretched out its head and rubbed it on Lin Chu's shoulder.

"I don't ride in the carriage anymore, I ride a horse, the carriage is too slow." Lan Jing said.

Everyone paused for a moment, and hurriedly persuaded: "Shizi, you don't know how to ride a horse yet, you will fall off when the horse runs." ”

"Fireear shouldn't throw me off, right?" Lan Jing touched Huo'er's head as she spoke.

"It's not that it won't, it's that you can't sit still at all." Chen Xiang said directly.

Saying this, Lan Jing sighed, and when he was about to get into the carriage, Lin Chu stretched out his hand from the horse: "Come up, I'm not afraid." ”

"Lin Chu, you are so caring." Lan Jing finished speaking, and sat down on the back of the horse.

on the city walls

Chu Xun looked at the soldiers who were getting weaker and weaker, and hurriedly said, "Hold your breath, this is poisonous smoke." ”

After speaking, he turned around and said secretly: "Damn, I didn't expect the Tartars to come up with the idea of using poisonous smoke to attack the city." ”

"General, what should I do now? The brothers seem to have been poisoned. Zhang Zuodao, the deputy general beside Chu Xun.

"Tell the brothers to go down first, cover their mouths and noses, and see if they can withstand the poisonous smoke." Chu Xun said.

"Yes," Zhang Zuo hurriedly walked to order.

After a while, Zhang Zuo walked back, and he said, "General, my subordinates found that the Tartars below seemed to have been poisoned and fainted a lot. ”

Chu Xun stretched out his head to look at it and laughed: "The Tartars are smart but are mistaken by being smart, I don't think they dare to release poisonous smoke." ”

Zhang Zuo hurriedly echoed: "Their losses are heavier than ours, this is a foolish thing done by smart people." ”

Herti looked at the fallen soldiers, and immediately sensed that there was something wrong with the smoke, and hurriedly ordered: "Cover your mouth and nose and lie down." ”[.]
