What happened?

A day later, this question popped up in everyone's minds again.

At this time, they had already left the warm home, and the smell of yesterday's wine had already dissipated, standing at the highest point of the walled fort, Xu Maoxiu looked at the dense enemies below.

The colorful Rulin banner with strange fonts written on it is no stranger to the soldiers and generals on the border.

It was an elite soldier under the command of the uncle of the West Piece King.

"So this is the battle of that old thing." Xu Bangmao spat on the side and said, his face that was already mixed with blood and soil looked very funny, and he grinned, "We finally have a chance to see and see." ”

Yes, there's a chance to see and see.

In the past, this kind of elite soldiers would never have been encountered by these walled fort battalion soldiers.

Xu Maoxiu's face was gloomy, he didn't speak, he silently looked at the enemy army in front of him, and counted the number of people in his heart.

Dense and vast like the sea, it seems that countless men and horses are all over the sky, in addition to the waiting generals, there are also the cavalry of the Western Thieves galloping back and forth, the sound of hooves is like thunder and rolling, it seems that the next moment it will be pouring rain.

Even if you can't count them, you have to count them.

Xu Maoxiu endured and finished counting.

"How much?" Fan Jianglin asked.

"Six thousand." Xu Maoxiu said.

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people around him changed greatly.

"Straight sissy thief! The surnamed Zhao said let us outflank from behind, and hit the western thief by surprise, who the hell caught off guard for whom! Where did this get the news, why is the main force of the Western Thieves here! A general scolded behind him, pacing back and forth, repeating the phrase. What's going on with him! Did he deliberately cheat me! Why is the main force of the Western Thieves here! ”

"Your Excellency." Xu Maoxiu stepped forward and shouted. "Now is not the time to say. Now it's up to the adults to decide what to do. ”

The general stopped and looked at the fort behind him, in addition to the hundreds of soldiers he brought, there were less than a thousand soldiers in the fort, plus the 200 people in the fort, it was almost 2,000 people, and then he thought about the number of enemies he had gotten, his face became more and more ugly.

"Is the beacon fire lit?" He asked.

Behind the sound of the kiss yes.

"That. Then let's withdraw. The general said.

"My lord, but if you withdraw now, I'm afraid that the rear side won't be able to prepare." Xu Maoxiu said.

This is the most dangerous place to enter the fortress of Dragon Valley City, after which you can drive straight in, and think of the troops who have been ordered to prepare for battle in the other direction, undoubtedly showing their backs to the enemy.

The general naturally understood this terrible result, but he also understood the terrible result that he would face if he stayed.

"That is also a big disaster caused by Zhao Cheng's misjudgment." He gritted his teeth and said, anyway, the biggest fault will definitely not be planted on his head.

Xu Maoxiu hesitated.

"My lord, we might as well resist for a moment, and the messenger will be sent back. The beacon fire has been lit, and I think an hour will be enough to prepare General Zhao and them. He said. While taking a few steps forward, he pointed out of the castle, "And let's retreat to the fortress city now and fight according to the city, this will have half a chance of victory." ”

That's right, unlike those western thieves who galloped on horseback, the Northwest soldiers were best at city warfare.

This is a challenge, but also an opportunity, an opportunity to make great contributions, just like Lord Zhu who guards Dragon Valley City...

The officer's eyes flashed brightly,

"That's right, Master Zhu was able to rely on more than 2,000 people to defend Dragon Valley City that year, why can't we defend the city!" He said loudly, "What's more, we are only defending the city for an hour, although there are few people, but we must also let the western thieves know that the army of our Han family men cannot break through, and the castle cannot be attacked!" ”

…………………

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!"

Liu Kui in the north of Longgu City was like a trapped beast, and it was easy to see a general rushing over.

"Can you send reinforcements?"

The general looked at him with an iron-blue face, and he didn't look at him angrily.

"What reinforcements to send! Why don't you go back to defending the city! He shouted.

"My lord, that side is guarding them..."Liu Kui said hurriedly.

"They? They all lit the beacon fire, and they didn't know how to run yet. The general shouted, threw off his sleeves and left.

Liu Kui looked at his back with an anxious expression.

"I'll watch them, I'll watch them, I'm not going to let them run!" He muttered, gritting his teeth and running out.

"I don't think they will."

At this time, in the tent, Liuliulang stood up and said.

The eyes of the room were all over the place.

A general on the other side glanced at him.

"Rokuro sit down." He whispered.

The general at the head smiled unapprehended.

"This is the descendant of your Zhou family, not bad." He nodded and smiled, "You say." ”

"I don't think Fang Shi will abandon them immediately." Liuliulang said, taking a deep breath, while stretching out his hand and pointing to the sand table in front of him, "The distance here is not something that can make us prepare by passing the news from the beacon fire, this is known to the West Thief, and they must also know that Fang Shi Ban, so they will definitely defend the city and delay time for us." ”

"But the messenger says that there are as many as four thousand thieves, and they are less than two thousand." A general said.

Saturday Lang straightened his chest.

"Our Han family has never been afraid of many enemies." He said.

Not to mention those men who want to earn fame, this is a big opportunity, it is an opportunity for you to make meritorious contributions, don't let these guys go! Don't let it go! You have to hold on!

Liuliulang's hanging hand was clenched tightly.

The six people in the front almost did not stop, their movements were fast, and the powerful arrow rain penetrated the shield under the castle, bringing a miserable scream.

"This Maoyuan Mountain brother's archery skills are really good," Fang Shiban said while standing on the city gate, it seemed that he might really be able to withstand an hour.

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp arrow came from under the city and went straight to his door.

The entourage beside him immediately raised his hand and waved his knife, and Fang Shizhu also took a step back on his back, and the arrow hit his legs and feet on the ground, as if it brought a burst of pain.

Good archery!

Sure enough, he is worthy of being the elite soldier of the West Thief Throne.

Fang Shiban looked at the cheering and screaming Western Thief cavalry under the city gate, and his face turned even pale, and then he looked at the dense enemy troops in the distance. Sweat broke out in the palms of his hands.

Maybe. An hour is too long....

Because of the fierce rain of arrows. The siege soldiers under the castle retreated like a tidal wave.

Xu Bangmao laughed.

"Grandchildren, let you know how great Grandpa is." He looked at the corpse under the city gate and blushed a little, "It's a pity that I can't take it away later, how much credit is this." ”

"Mallet, don't worry, some of the thieves' heads are for you to cut." One of the brothers laughed.

Before the words fell, there was another drum beat under the city, which indicated that a new round of siege had begun.

Not even such a small city could be captured. How dare you call it an elite soldier, the other party obviously thinks the same, and comes with a more fierce offensive.

There was a rain of arrows, and the people on the castle couldn't raise their heads.

"....How much longer?" Fan Jianglin shouted loudly.

"It's coming!" Xu Maoxiu shouted, "There is still half an hour." ”

Half an hour to go

"Why has it been so long today?" someone said.

That being said, taking advantage of the pause in the attack below, they raised their bows and arrows to return fire.

"And the arrows? Give me the arrows! Xu Maoxiu shouted loudly.

No one answered him, and when he turned back, he saw that there were not many people at the gates.

Fang Shiban, who was originally standing on the main seat, disappeared from his shadow.

He looked stunned.

"Lord Fang has run away!" The others also looked back and shouted.

The sound threw chaos into the city gates.

The two soldiers turned around and ran, but were hit by flying stones. Brain bursts.

"Damn, this soft egg!" Xu Bang mallet shouted.

"Don't mess around, everyone. Now I can't run the hooves of the western thief! Xu Maoxiu shouted, stopping the chaotic soldiers, "We still have to delay time." ”

"Xu Dangyong, how can you delay, we are not enough at all!" Others shouted.

Xu Maoxiu looked at the surging city under the city, and then looked at the arrows and stones that kept flying.

"We burn the city!" He said.

The warehouse was kicked open indiscriminately, and the dust and baskets smashed together, and Fan Jianglin raised his hand to block the two bangs.

"Is there oil in there?" He shouted.

Xu Maoxiu rushed in and began to rummage, and the other three people also followed, rummaging through the dog's blood spray that Fang Shi was scolding while rummaging.

Because Fang Shiban fled in advance, the soldiers and people in the walled fort ran away, making it very inconvenient for them to find things.

"Quick, quick, move out whatever can be ignited, there's no time, there's no time." Fan Jianglin urged.

Soon the oil cylinders were placed at the city gates, and the surrounding houses were splashed on the streets.

"Hurry up, hurry up." Fan Jianglin looked at it and hurriedly shouted.

The few people on the city gate who had been waiting for a long time rushed down, and three or four of them could not escape the attack of arrows and stones, and died on the stairs of the city gate.

The thieves had already begun to pound on the door, slamming into everyone's hearts one after another.

"Ignition, ignition." Fan Jianglin shouted, throwing down the torch, the fire rose, but saw Xu Maoxiu rushing towards the city wall.

"Third child, why are you going!" He shouted.

"No, it's not enough for an hour, I'll hold it up for a while, I can't waste my efforts in vain!" Xu Maoxiu shouted, and as he spoke, he went up to the city wall and laid out the scattered crossbow machines.

Fan Jianglin raised his heels and went up, and Xu Bangmao and the others, who had already followed everyone on horseback, looked back and followed without hesitation.

Ten heavy crossbows were placed on the walls.

"Die, you!" Xu Bang mallet shouted, releasing the bowstring.

At the same time, Xu Maoxiu and the others also loosened the bowstring, and with a loud buzzing sound, a rain of arrows was shot.

There was a wail under the gates, and the pounding on the doors came to a standstill.

"Go, go." Fan Jianglin shouted.

Before his words fell, Xu Maoxiu, who was standing beside him, reached out and grabbed him and pushed him.

"What's wrong?" Fan Jianglin fell to the ground and shouted loudly, looking up to see Xu Maoxiu looking at him, his eyes were round and seemed to be a little incredulous.

What's wrong? What's wrong?

"Third brother!"

A heart-rending sound sounded, and the surrounding brothers pounced.

Xu Maoxiu felt that everything around him had slowed down, and he looked down at the arrow on his chest, the arrow with flesh and blood, the arrow of the western thief had always been vicious, grinding meat.

The last time he was shot by this arrow, he got a poisonous sore on the way to escape.

Last time... This time it's still...

The corners of Xu Maoxiu's mouth couldn't help but show a hint of a smile.

It's a disease, it's not a life, how can it be cured.

So it's fate.

If you don't have this fame in your life, you don't have it, no matter how hard you try.

It is enough to die on the battlefield, to die like this.

"Don't make her sad."

Xu Maoxiu looked at the faces of his brothers who were getting more and more blurred, muttered, and fell down the city wall.
