"It's coming!" Zi Ye, who was standing at the front, reminded in a low voice, and Zishuang, Lan Yu and Blue Butterfly stepped forward together and surrounded Xia Hanqiu in the middle.

Xia Hanqiu didn't stop them from doing this, she was doing her own thing, and if she really didn't care about it, it would increase their burden.

Looking around, everyone was ready, the fire oil floating in the air, it didn't smell good, but it was the only way for them to save their lives now.

Mingde walked over, and before he could speak, he heard the princess say: "Uncle Ming, you command, don't take care of me, I won't do well with you." ”

Matilda was silent for a moment, then nodded yes.

At this time, he couldn't help but think that if the princess was a man, her future would be limitless, but he was also glad that she was a woman, and only such a woman was qualified to stand side by side with the prince.

Before the battle, everything was quiet, and the crackling sound of the flames was exceptionally clear.

The other party probably didn't expect the city wall to be so bright, no matter how you think about it, you can't help but not hide it after alarming it, and it is a strong attack.

The previous attacks on fire oil made them wary, and this time there were archers with them, although such a bright place made them have nothing to hide, but at the same time, it also exposed the people on the city wall.

As soon as the people on the city wall showed their heads, the fire oil in their hands was shot down by an arrow before it could fall, and half of the fire oil fell on themselves, and the screams tore the entire night sky.

Xia Hanqiu looked at the tragic scene over there expressionlessly, biting the tip of his tongue hard, and reminding himself to stay calm with a sharp pain, especially after seeing the obvious fear in everyone's eyes, he was even calmer than ever.

"Uncle Ming. I'll come up to the castle tower, and you will bring some good hands to pick the archers of the other party, and bring all the people from the hidden tribe with you. ”

The long-range archers are very powerful, but once they get closer, their advantage is gone, and Mingde knows that the situation is urgent, so he has to grit his teeth and leave.

If not for the archers of the opposing side, they ...... There is no chance of winning.

Someone was already building a pontoon bridge under the cover of archers, Xia Hanqiu not only did not retreat, but also took a step forward from the person in front of him. Stretch out your hand. "Bring me the oil."

"Princess......

"Go."

There was fire oil nearby, and Blue Butterfly immediately went to get it and handed it to the princess, and she could see that the princess's hand was shaking. Thinking of the princess's current physical condition. Blue Butterfly was so sad that she almost burst into tears.

Take a deep breath. Xia Hanqiu lifted the oil and took a step forward and poured down, and quickly retreated and hid his figure, "Fire." ”

Just as she spoke. Ziye threw the fire fold down, and with a bang, accompanied by a miserable scream, it seemed that the entire sky was a little brighter.

Xia Hanqiu didn't seem to be able to hear or see, and after reading the left and right, "You guys...... Scared? ”

Fear? Of course I'm afraid! But the princesses dared to do this, why didn't they dare?

This time, women move before men, because they know to protect themselves, although there is still one person injured, but it is not as tragic as before, and when men see that women are more daring than them, no matter how timid people are, they are trembling and moving, no matter how much they nest, they can't let people point their noses and say that they are worse than women!

Gradually, the morale that was suppressed was raised again, and it has been rising, although this is the war between the Min State and the Xinliang State, but on this city wall, it is also a war between men and women, women want to raise their eyebrows, men do not want to be pressed down by women, although men take advantage of the number of people, but in terms of momentum, women are not weak!

Because there's a princess here! When they are afraid and tired, as long as they look at the princess who has been standing there without taking half a step back, they will have the strength and courage again!

The princess holds up half the sky for them, and they have to use brick by brick to build this half of the sky tightly!

"Princess, sit down." Lan Yu moved out the only chaise longue in the attic, the seat was too low to weigh down his stomach when he sit, and the chaise longue would be more comfortable to sit on.

Xia Hanqiu's body sank badly, and he didn't insist at this time, he sat down with Zishuang's hand, his back was still straight, and the spirit was still there.

Seeing this scene, everyone remembered that the princess was more than seven months pregnant at this time!

Presumably, the enemy's archers were cleaned up a lot, and there were fewer and fewer arrows coming in, and everyone became more and more unscrupulous, and their movements became more and more fluid.

Suddenly, there was a shout from behind him, "What's the noise?" When is it not known now? ”

The reprimanded soldier hurriedly ran up the stairs and explained: "Chief, it's not that my subordinates are ignorant, but suddenly many people came, saying that they were here to help, and they wanted to go upstairs to the city, and their subordinates were persuading ......."

The general in armor couldn't help but look at a few people in the middle of the city wall, and it happened that Xia Hanqiu also looked over, and the person quickly lowered his head, thought about it, and came over to report the matter.

Her intentions were not in vain, Xia Hanqiu turned her head back, her face was darkened by the firelight, "How many people are there?" ”

"Back to the princess, there should be forty or fifty people coming now, and there are still people coming back."

"Let them come up, if they feel scared, they will naturally go back, and if they are brave enough to stay and help, then stay."

The general, who was not a high-ranking official, paused slightly, and should leave.

Not long after, many people came up from that staircase, not far away, Xia Hanqiu could see that the other party was not afraid, and some people even took two steps back unconsciously, but no one immediately returned along the road.

Just glanced at it, Xia Hanqiu didn't look at it again, at this time, it was most appropriate for her to do nothing and say nothing.

But when the people over there saw that the princess was really guarding the city, they were afraid and encouraged, and asked what to do.

The general glanced at the princess quickly, and ordered two people to come over to teach them, but he admired the princess more in his heart, maybe he thought about it too much, but he believed that this would definitely not be the princess's unintentional move.

One side was silent, the other side was silent, except for the occasional trumpet, there was only the screams of the people doused with fire oil, which came far away in the night.

Xia Hanqiu thought, if you stick your head out to see, I don't know how many corpses have floated in the moat below, probably, it's not much worse to fill a road with corpses.

"Autumn!" The familiar voice finally made the calm expression on Xia Hanqiu's face crack, and when he turned his head to look, he couldn't say a word to Shang Fu Yingying's angry eyes.

As soon as she saw the people who came with her, Xia Hanqiu's mind turned again, and the exit was reproach, "Cousin Chen, why are you here?" The eldest uncle and uncle are gone, the grandfather is old, and now the Xia family is the only one who has you to use, how can you leave? ”

"Don't talk about others first, think about yourself, try your best to drive us back, and detain me at home, you came here with a belly, you ......" As she spoke, Fu Yingying choked, and after going back, she looked at her son who was sleeping sweetly, and immediately knew Qiu's plans, and also remembered who the person who reported to him was, it was not from the Xia family at all, it was clearly from the Qiwang Mansion, but it was not common to see it on weekdays, so she only felt familiar, thinking that it was the person who was waiting in the Xia family.

But that person got Qiu's death order, no matter what she said, he wouldn't let her go out, if Xia Chen hadn't found a way to knock him out and tie him up, she wouldn't have been able to get out!

Xia Hanqiu smiled bitterly, she is the daughter-in-law of the Duan family, and now the people of the Duan family are fighting for this world, she just loses this life, how can she let others lose!

What's more, Yingying is not only her best friend, but also her aunt! If she has something, she can only apologize with death when her brother-in-law comes back!

The two looked at each other without saying a word, and finally Xia Chen broke the silence, "Cousin, the Xia family is safer now, but you have put yourself in danger, you don't worry about us, we don't worry about you, I came here with my grandfather's personal permission, there is no need to say anything else, I can't do anything else, but I can do my part to help defend the city." ”

Xia Hanqiu found out that Cousin Chen was not wearing a long shirt, but a neat short fight, and after saying this, he turned around and went to the oil pot, first watched the others do it, and he also carried the barrel to the city wall.

Among these people who came tonight, probably none of them did not have a life in their hands, Xia Hanqiu flashed this thought in her mind, and seeing that Yingying was still staring at her, she accepted those thoughts that she had and did not, and stretched out her hand to her.

Even if Fu Yingying was so angry at this time, looking at her tired appearance, where could she still say half a sentence of reproach, she came over and grabbed her cold hand and clenched it hard, "I'll settle accounts with you when this matter is over!" ”

"If you really want to survive, whatever you do."

The screams were endless, Xia Hanqiu was numb after listening to it for a long time, but Fu Yingying's face turned pale when she heard it, she came like this, how did Qiu survive......

Just thinking about it makes me feel distressed.

"I'll get you a soup woman."

Xia Hanqiu grabbed her and shook her head, "I'm not here to enjoy the blessings, don't worry, I can still hold on." ”

"You ......"

"So many pairs of eyes looking at me, they can have their own interpretation of every move I make, these people are almost all supported by one breath, I can't let this breath go, Yingying, it's not that I don't want to treat myself, but I can only boil with them."

Fu Yingying's eyes were red, and she didn't say anything else, but just stepped forward a little more, almost sticking to Xia Hanqiu.

Fu Yingying's arrival seemed to trigger a switch, and it didn't take long for Wu Linlang, Zhu Jialian, and Yao Feng to ...... Almost all the women who worked in the yamen came over one after another, accompanied by their husbands, with what may be the only few guards left in the family, and for a while, the city tower actually brought out a bit of a lively feeling.

The people who came up were first calmed by the miserable howls, and when they saw the princess, their hearts were settled, even if they knew that the princess had lied to them before, but knowing the princess's intentions, how could they still complain without knowing how to complain.

It's just that they also have their persistence, and in the past two years, they have grown not only their brains, but also their hearts, and the persistence that they have never had before! (To be continued......)
