Chapter 143

Cang Duan looked at Hei Yan with a resolute face, and said faintly: "When I rescued you in the snow and took you back to Rab City, my father died in Rab City, and you took me to escape from Rab City and kill the pursuers, I am very grateful, you never abandoned me, I will always remember it!" โ
"In Xiangsui City, you fought for me, fighting with one enemy and five fierce beasts, do I want you to fight for me with your life now? What reason do I have for you to fight for me? โ
Hei Yan stared at the young man in front of him and said, "Wu Xiang once said that there is no other way but to kill them all. www.biquge.info I'm not just for you, I'm not just for you, I'm for myself, and if I lose and die, you don't have to blame you for everything we've been through. โ
"That's right, I don't even have a reason to let you fight...... Cang Yan smiled bitterly, and then relieved: "Then let me go out now, maybe my good uncle will let you go after seeing me......"
He laughed, and then ran to the gate, but was pulled by Hei Yan fiercely, and Hei Yan roared: "I said, it has nothing to do with you, even if there is no you, they will attack Yanbei!" โ
Cang Yan lost his voice and said, "What am I? I want to go home, I don't want to stay here anymore! I have nothing, my father is dead, my uncle is impatient to seize the position of my city lord, you take me away, but in the end you still have to abandon me! You don't want me anymore, what am I still alive for?! โ
Hei Yan, who was angry, waved his hand and slapped Cang Yan's eyes black, and his head turned blank all of a sudden!
Cang Yan looked at Hei Yan in disbelief, covering his face, like a fish in his throat, unable to say a word.
This is Jian Zan on the side sneered and said: "Cangxiao City Lord, it is better to walk out of this gate now, and see if they will kill you as agreed and let go of others!" Amusing! โ
Jian Zan is his partner as a mercenary war, and the sudden arrival of the army of the Seven Cities also surprised him, it stands to reason that this group of people should wait and see before they start to act, but they didn't expect the Seven Cities to be resolute this time!
"It seems that Yanbei City can't be protected now, on behalf of Lord Wu Chan, I sincerely invite you to leave with me, and I will definitely guarantee your safety!" Jian Zan showed a smile, he looked at Yue Lin carefully, and said.
Yue Lin shook his head slightly, and said: "Jian Zan, you know that I will not agree, you are not from Yanbei, you can go!" โ
Jian Zan was silent for a moment, and he said: "Hei Yan, I will go to Gale to take away the body of the Mistress of Wuxiang, if you don't die this time, I will wait for you to come to Panpole." The body of the hostess will be waiting for you in Pampolle. โ
Hei Yan didn't stop Jian Zan this time, he looked at Jian Zan's back as he turned to leave, and sighed faintly.
Cang Yan stood in place like a wooden man, motionless, Hei Yan walked to Cang Yan in silence, and said in a low voice: "Stay, for me." โ
Gritting his teeth and looking at the tall back, he burst into tears, and opened his mouth to let out a whimper......
Yue Lin looked at the big boy who was crying and almost fainted, and patted the other person on the shoulder to comfort him.
At the moment of the great enemy, Yue Lin and Hei Yan's every move will affect these warriors, Yue Lin wears a cotton robe, and pulls the soldiers who used to work as carpenters and irons in Yanbei City to stay up vigil and make crossbows.
Everyone in the city was surprised why the army outside had not attacked for a long time, but they didn't know that this was because of Yuelin's delaying tactics.
Hei Yan knew from where Yue Lin wanted Ji to do, he just had to hurry up the time to make Yanbei's city walls stronger.
The cool breeze whistled, and the time passed minute by minute, and all the men and women in Yanbei City, who were uneasy, were making crossbow parts.
The delay had reached the fourth day, and Cangduan's subordinates were puzzled: "My lord, we don't have much food with us, do we have to continue to wait like this?" โ
Cang Duan frowned, and said after a moment: "Of course not, this Yanbei witch has not promised to help me open the city gate so far, there should be concerns, whether he agrees or not this time, we will attack Xiangsui City tomorrow!" โ
Ji, who didn't know the decision of the canduan, came to the army of the canduan as usual, and it was still the excuse.
One of Cangduan's subordinates raised his eyebrows and said, "My lord, I don't think this kid is sincere in cooperating with us at all!" โ
"Hmph." Hearing this, Cang Duan said viciously to Ji: "Listen, my subordinates, go back and tell you Wu, if he opens the gate for me tomorrow when I attack the city, I will let you go to the northern part of the Yanbei tribe according to my previous promise, if not, then you can wait to die with that group of slaves!" โ
The night is hazy, the more you look at the sky and gaze, a lot of crossbows have been made, and many arrows of bows and arrows have also been hurried out, and Yanbei should still be able to fight tomorrow......
On the second day, at last the thunderous sound of horses' hooves rolled in, the dust rolled in, and the warehouse swept in with a large army.
The sound of the horn pierced the sky, and if there was any more beating of war drums, it would really be to the ancient battlefield, as if in a different world, walking in the torrent of time and space.
Those cavalry charged, and Hei Yan immediately asked all the warriors to draw their bows and arrows, and the crossbows that had been made in the past four days were also taken to the high platform.
Cang Duan looked up at the high platform, and asked his subordinates beside him suspiciously, "Have you ever seen that thing?" โ
Everyone shook their heads again and again, and said straightly: "You haven't seen it yet, Lord City, how can we have seen it, we have also seen a catapult, is this thing the same as a catapult, used to throw stones?" โ
Cang Duan shook his head, and then said: "Hmph, I'll know later, you all be careful!" โ
Hei Yan stood on the high platform, everyone opened their bows, but they didn't let go of the arrows in their hands, and without Hei Yan's order, they didn't dare to act rashly.
Let the other party approach, until this group of people appeared within the range of the bow and arrow, Hei Yan shouted: "Shoot!" โ
Looking at this group of cavalry, everyone was terrified, looking at them with fear, this is really not to blame them, how have they ever seen such a battle in the tribe? How many people can there be in a tribe?
Black Flame is boiling with beast blood, fighting, this is the real battle!
You can almost hear your heart beating!
Those people rushed in, and the palms of the more they came, the sweat was all over them, and the sound of fighting sounded in their ears.
As soon as Hei Yan waved his hand, the soldiers standing next to the crossbow machine also installed the crossbow machine one after another, and the โกโก launched with the sound of breaking the air, rushed forward, like a black light heading straight for the enemy!
Suddenly, the screams under the city came and went, endlessly! One
One by one, the soldiers of the Seven Cities were killed by the arrows, and at the same time, the arrows shot by the huge crossbow were like a long spear, shooting a distance of thousands of meters!
"Ahh
The body that was concentrated by the arrows was thrown six or seven meters away in the direction of the black mang, and the whole person was shot through and turned into a ball of flesh!
Cangduan's heart was suddenly turbulent, and he was horrified, watching his subordinates around him being pierced by a huge long โกโก in an instant, and his face suddenly turned pale! What bow and arrow can shoot such a long distance? Whose arm strength can shoot people away?
He looked into the distance and retreated!
The besieging soldiers were either killed or wounded.
The warehouse subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away!
"Withdraw!"
Because of the appearance of the crossbow, the cangduan was caught off guard! He immediately hissed, "Stand back!" โ
", what is this thing that can reach such a long range?! Retreat first! Under the order of the cangduan, the sound of the horn suddenly changed its tone, it was a retreat order! The soldiers of the Seven Cities decisively rode back!
Yue Lin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene, but fortunately the other party did not force the attack in......
"Hei Yan, you commanded well today!" Yue Lin looked at Hei Yan, who was organizing the battle, with a smile on his face, this was one of the few smiles he had in the past few days.
Hei Yan nodded slightly, and said with a worried look in his eyes: "I don't know if they will attack tomorrow......"
Yue Lin was silent for a moment and said, "Let's make some arrows and wooden thorns in a hurry, and be prepared." โ
"Wu, the bed crossbow is something from your original tribe? Or a city? ......" Hei Yan asked with some curiosity.
Everyone who heard the words on the side looked at Yue Lin curiously, this bed crossbow is made by Yue Lin Wu in the past few days, and its power on the battlefield is obvious to all, it is definitely a sharp weapon among sharp weapons!
Yue Lin shook his head and nodded again.
Everyone had a question, why did Ah Wu nod and shake his head again?!
"Sort of...... Yue Lin said smugly, there are also crossbows in the eighteen weapons of ancient China, one of the sharp weapons used to attack the city against the infantry in ancient times.
"The city of Yue Lin Wu is really powerful, I don't know ......" Hei Yan was silent for a moment, thinking that the city of Yue Lin Wu should have been destroyed a long time ago, and a city with such a weapon could not avoid destruction, what kind of strong enemy would the other party be? How does it compare to these seven cities? Or maybe it's Carthage in the distance?
The rags on the flagpole fluttered in the breeze, wailing and whimpering.
The soldiers of the Seven Cities were in a very low mood at this time, and in the tent, Cang Duan looked at the spears collected from the battlefield with an unnatural expression, saying that the spears were wrong, obviously larger arrows, and even the arrows were very rough and did not use copper and iron as the head, which was an ordinary wooden strip sharpened at both ends, a bit like the wooden thorns used by the tribesmen.
"Did any of you see the situation? How could this thing have flown from such a distance?! โ
A short-haired man pondered for a moment and said, "I heard from my soldiers that this thing was launched by those things that looked like catapults on the high platform of Xiangsui City!" โ
Hearing this, Cangduan's brows furrowed.
I'm afraid it won't be as simple as I thought this time, and it's probably impossible to take Xiangsui City easily...... Do you still want to discuss with that Yanbei witch?
He said solemnly: "This time we were careless, I didn't expect this barbarian tribe to have such a sharp weapon!" โ
"Could it be something from Xiangsui City, but they borrowed it?"
Hearing this speculation from his subordinates, Cang Duan nodded again and again, and said, "That's right, it must be like this, otherwise this group of slaves would not be able to make such a thing!" โ
"We must pay attention to this group of slaves in Xiangsui City......"
Although Kura Duan agreed with this sentence, he didn't say anything, but just ordered: "Let all the soldiers have a good rest, I have decided to contact the other party's witch again, and by the way, let people bring news back to Qicheng, and let Qicheng transport the catapult over." โ
"Yes, sir!"
The next day, the army of the Seven Cities did not attack the city.
Hei Yan and the others were all surprised and puzzled, for three consecutive days, the army of the Seven Cities did not attack again, nor did they retreat!
"Did they give up?" Yuan Meng scratched his head and said.
Leng Heng shook his head slightly on the side and said, "I'm afraid not." โ
Yue Lin squinted his eyes, and he pondered for a moment and said: "It should be some idea, the battle a few days ago was just because of the appearance of the crossbow, they were taken aback, and I am afraid that it will not be long before they come back." โ
"Season ......"
Yue Lin turned to look at Ji, hesitated and shouted to the other party, Ji smiled and said: "I understand what Wu means, I will go to find out the news tomorrow!" โ
Yue Lin nodded, looking at Ji with some embarrassment, "This time is very dangerous, you be careful!" Stay alive first, as long as you can come back! โ
"Ah Wu, don't worry, I can survive in Xiangsui, let alone now?"
Ji smiled slightly, his friend ...... You have to take care of yourself, and you will definitely live!
On this day, outside the city of Yanbei, thousands of troops were stationed in one place, overwhelming, and the tents were undulating, endless, and endless.
In the middle of the night, the distance was vast and boundless, rippling and undulating on the land like a sea of fire.
As soon as the wind blew, the firelight was churning, and the night sky outside Yanbei City was red.
Ji walked through the city and came to Cangduan again, Cangduan looked at the comer, and was secretly happy in his heart, although he had sent someone back to get the catapult for the siege in the past few days, but if someone was willing to open the door for his convenience, it would be better! It's best to take Xiangsui City easily!
If you use a catapult, I am afraid that it will also pay a lot of money.
"You're here." He looked comfortable, as if he was not in a hurry, and he was full of certainty.
Ji knelt on the ground with his head bowed, and Cangduan couldn't see Ji's expression clearly, but it didn't prevent Cangduan from pretending to be deep in front of Ji.
Although he is said to be the lord of a city, Kura Duan is very aware of his ability, and fighting was done by his younger brother and father in the past, and he doesn't know how to fight at all, and he does more to manage Rab City.
"Yes, my lord, Ah Wu was frightened a few days ago, you said that you were going to fight Yanbei and immediately beat him, he has not been in good spirits recently, and it took several days to recover ......"
Season Ai said as if frightened.
Hearing this, Cang Duan laughed, put down the cup in his hand and said, "You go back and tell you Wu, as long as he helps me open the door, I will definitely follow the previous agreement, and I can also give him some unexpected good things!" โ
The air was suddenly condensed, and Ji Wenyan muttered for a long time and hesitated: "I don't know when Lord Cangduan will attack Yanbei City?" I'll tell Ah Wu and let Ah Wu prepare! โ
"It's up to you to open the door for me!" When Cang Duan heard this, he immediately said.
Ji hurriedly agreed, "Let me go back and ask Ah Wu!" I wonder if you have any other plans? โ
A subordinate scolded: "What are you doing with so many barbarian questions about our Seven Cities?!" โ
Ji Leng sweated, and said in his heart that he was reckless!
Cangduan's voice was like a heavenly sound, and he interrupted his subordinate and said: "Stop, since you have asked, I will not hide it from you, I have already sent someone back to Rab City to transport catapults, as long as the catapults come out, the city wall of Xiangsui is just a piece of paper to me, as soon as the catapult comes, I will definitely break the city wall!" You should go back early and let your Ah Wu make a decision as soon as possible, or I will attack the city when the catapult arrives! Live or die! โ
Ji hurriedly knelt down and said again and again: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely tell Ah Wu!" โ
Looking at the back of Ji leaving, Cangduan's expression changed unpredictably, and he asked Ji's subordinates who had just spoken and frowned: "My lord, could this person lie to us?" Want to stall? โ
Cang Duan sneered and said: "It doesn't matter if you delay the time, anyway, we have to wait for the food and catapults to be transported from Rab City, and then it will be easy to attack the city, if Nawu is willing to help take Xiangsui City, we will lose some men and horses!" โ
Several subordinates hurriedly agreed.
Ji, who didn't know that he had been suspected, hurriedly returned to the northern Yanbei tribe at night, and told Yue Lin, Hei Yan and the others what he heard today.
"Transporting things from Rab City to here...... It would have taken about 14 or 5 days to get here on the road, and it took me a lot of time to escape all the way with the cang, and if I had brought a catapult, I am afraid it would have taken a little longer...... With the time back and forth, the attack on Yanbei in the warehouse section should be delayed for a while......"
Hei Yan had lived in Labu City for a while, and when he heard Ji's news, his eyebrows stretched slightly, which means that Cangduan's attack on Yanbei should be twenty days later!
Everyone was relieved for a moment, these days were like a nightmare, the last battle between the two sides was purely a fluke, the other party did not continue to forcibly attack because of the fear of the bed crossbow, otherwise Yanbei may not be able to resist their strong attack!
Three days later, in the early morning, the sun hung high.
Cang Duan once again led the army to the front of Yanbei City, he squinted his eyes and glanced at the scorching sun hanging in the sky, and then looked at the closed gate of Xiangsui, the city wall of Xiangsui was covered with green and faint moss, the rock was particularly thick, and it was difficult to push open the huge rock gate with a simple method at a glance.
"My lord, are we going to attack the city now? But the catapult hasn't arrived yet......"
Cang Duan turned to the people behind him and said, "Go to the next city and tell them that as long as they surrender and hand over Xiangsui City and Canggul, I will let them go!" Let them go! โ
The subordinates behind him nodded, and immediately rode straight to the gate of Yanbei City!
But it didn't take long for the man to come back in a gloomy manner, and reported: "My lord, the barbarian named Heiyan directly refused, and said that we should leave now!" Otherwise, kill us! โ
Hearing this, Cangduan's eyes were stunned, and then he asked, "Do you see someone standing with Hei Yan?" Is there a witch in Yanbei? โ
"It doesn't seem to be ......" which soldier's heart is there, and he doesn't know it!
Cang Duan snorted coldly, and said in his heart, I'm afraid that this so-called Yanbei Wu is either deceiving himself, or he is found and locked up by this black flame! It didn't matter what the situation was, it had taken a long time for the catapult to be transported, and it was not bad to scare this group of barbarians, and the cangduan couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth happily at the thought of the panicked appearance of the slaves in Xiangsui City.
"Since they like to use bows and arrows, then we also use arrows, and even if we can't attack the city gates, I will kill them and injure countless people! Cang Duan snorted coldly and ordered: "Let the archers come forward!" โ
"Yes, sir!"
The subordinates of the warehouse section immediately organized the archers to line up one column after another! The archers quickly assembled, stood in four rows, and surrounded Yanbei City.
Hei Yan looked at these people, squinted his eyes, and said in his heart, what does this warehouse want to do?
When I arrived, I suddenly had a ringing in my heart!
"They're going to attack us with arrows! Fast! Let them hide under the walls and feet! โ
These archers pulled their bows and arrows, only to see the dense feathers of arrows with a voice: "Shoot!" โ
Flying together, covering the sky and the sun, the more terrifying it became, everyone standing on the high platform suddenly squatted down to dodge the whistling arrows!
The people of Yanbei City, who did not have a shield, were caught off guard by this sudden attack!
After this row of seven-city warriors shot arrows, they retreated in a neat and orderly manner, making way for a row of archers!
"Archery!" The hoarse shouts of the soldiers of the Seven Cities rang out, and with this sound, the overwhelming arrows went straight to Yanbei City again!
The arrows flew straight to Yanbei City, and at this time, most of the people had already hid in the corners of Daocheng or houses, but some people had already returned to the arrows and became dead souls.
Yue Lin stabilized his mind and glanced at Hei Yan, but he didn't expect this position to be so unreasonable! What a damn one!
Several Mo warriors held the few shields in Xiangsui City, trembling to block the flying arrows in the sky, for fear that Yue Lin and Hei Yan in the middle of this shield would be injured, but the huge impact of the arrows on the shield If it weren't for the giant shield of the two of them, I'm afraid this shield would have come out of their hands long ago!
Wugu stood in the corner of the wall and saw that Yue Lin and Hei Yan were all right, and this time he breathed a long sigh of relief!
"Sister-in-law, fortunately you're fine, you better don't go up to the city tower! That warehouse is really hateful, why do you want to trouble us in Yanbei?! I'm, don't let me catch him! Otherwise I'll kill him!" โ
Wugu was angry, and Yue Lin said to Wugu, "How do you know the situation outside if you don't go up to the city tower?" โ
Wugu was speechless for a while, "I'll go up instead of my sister-in-law!" โ
The more he looked at Wugu, he smiled with satisfaction, although this teenager was only fourteen years old when he was about to exceed his real age, he was a half-old child in modern times, and it was really heartwarming to be able to say such thoughtful words.
"That's not going to work."
Hei Yan squinted his eyes on the side and said, "Ah Wu, don't go up to the city tower in the future, I'll go up to the city tower to check!" โ
