Volume 2 Tragic Song Chapter 223 The Pride of the Huaxu People

"Xiao Datouren, although there were some casualties in your army in today's battle, the old man looked carefully in the city, and the number of casualties on the creeping side's side today was at least about 100.

You must know that from ancient times to the present, the old man has never heard of such a strange thing as the worm man will die in battle, not to mention that the old man once personally learned the power of the worm when he went west.

Therefore, Xiao Datouren's battle today to defeat a strong enemy really boosted the morale of my grassland warriors, and it was extremely inspiring. ”

After listening to what Xin'er said, Xiao Jinxing moved his gaze to Lu Jia, who was speaking, and saw that the silver-haired old man was praising himself with a radiant look at the moment.

And the leaders of the Huaxu people behind him also nodded in agreement, with excited looks on their faces, as if they were really happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Among the people, only Aru was full of worries and looked worried.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Jinxing's heart suddenly moved, and he immediately felt that today's battle might play an extremely crucial role in his recovery of the Huaxu people.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jinxing couldn't help but have a smile on his face, and politely replied to Lu Jia and the others.

Seeing that Xiao Jinxing turned from worry to joy, everyone behind Lu Jia also hurriedly said compliments to Xiao Jinxing, in fact, those people also have their own little Jiujiu in their hearts.

In today's battle, the powerful combat effectiveness shown by the Youyu coalition army amazed them, and they immediately came up with the idea of hugging Xiao Jinxing's thigh.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the next time they enter the customs to fight, if they can have Xiao Jinxing's full support on the side, they will inevitably get unexpected benefits when they fight against the Qin people.

But at this moment, a person hurriedly ran outside the door, and the man seemed a little hesitant when he saw that the tent was full of people, but after a while, he gritted his teeth and rushed in.

This man was the soldier guarding the city wall, and he was ordered by Zhetuo to come and report the news.

"Report, report."

After the man entered the tent, he knelt on the ground without saying a word, and said two words "report" in a row as he breathed breathlessly.

Everyone's eyes shifted to the soldier, and the soldier automatically left a passage in the direction of Xiao Jinxing.

Xiao Jinxing turned his head to look at the soldier's hurried appearance, and immediately felt that something was wrong, and before he could speak, he saw that the soldier smoothed out the breath in his mouth and hurriedly said:

"The big heads, the head of Zhetuo found that the worms who had retreated during the day were gathering a thousand paces away from the city gate, as if they were about to launch a night attack."

"What? Night Raid. ”

Xiao Jinxing hurriedly struggled to get up and sit up, holding back the dizziness in his brain and was about to stay. Xin'er also knew that the situation was serious, so she didn't stop it, but hurriedly stepped forward and helped Xiao Jinxing to stand up.

The other people looked at Xiao Jinxing's flustered appearance for a while, you look at me, and I look at you at a loss.

However, the people in this tent are all long-term commanders, and although they are flustered, they also know that they have to wait for the orders of the big man, so there is still a quiet silence in the tent.

Lu Jia glanced at Aru and the others behind him, and those Huaxutou people quietly turned their heads and left.

And Xiao Jinxing also dressed up with the help of Xin'er, and said to everyone: "Let's go, go and see", and then led everyone to walk in the direction of the city wall.

Outside the city, as Zheto reported, the shadows could be seen in the distance in the darkness crowded with people, as if many people were busy preparing something.

Although it is late at night, tonight is a rare sign of the moon and stars. The entire Wuhu grassland was shrouded in a miserable white

Under the moonlight, although it is still not as clear as it can be seen in the daytime, it is not so clear that it is not so clear that it cannot reach out and lose sight of its fingers.

Seeing that Xiao Jinxing had boarded the city, Zhetuo and the others hurriedly stepped forward to report to Xiao Jinxing what they had observed.

Finally, Zheto said to Xiao Jinxing:

"Big-headed, two quarters of an hour ago the Creeps regrouped outside the walls, and I think they are preparing for the siege again, but they seem to be ready to deal with our archers.

If you guessed correctly, each of them was armed with a huge shield. ”

"This matter can only be improvised after they attack."

After Xiao Jinxing heard that the worm man was equipped with a giant shield, he couldn't think of any good way for a while, so he could only say casually.

When Zhetuo and the others discussed countermeasures with Xiao Jinxing, Lu Jia, who was standing with Xiao Jinxing and listening carefully to the situation outside the city, suddenly found that the speech between these people did not mention Xiao Jinxing's coma during the day, as if they did not care about the physical condition of their head.

But Xiao Jinxing didn't care at all, as if it should be like this.

This gave Ruga a deeper understanding of the Yu people.

"Know how to choose between the pros and cons, this is a real iron-blooded army."

Luga sighed in his heart as he thought back to what the mysterious Hua Xu Wu had said to him.

"If Hua Xu Wu sees the soldiers under Xiao Jinxing's command, she will definitely point at them and say to herself that this is the soldier and horse she wants to train by herself."

It was only at this moment that Lu Jia truly realized the reason why the Great Witch of Dragon City and the other tribes decisively abandoned the plan of using the Huaxu people to resist the Creeping Divine Court and instead supported Xiao Jinxing's move.

In the face of such a large army, even if Huaxu soldiers mobilized 100,000, how could they match it.

Maybe Hua Xu Wu will immediately turn to support him when he sees Xiao Jinxing.

Ruga looked at the pale man in front of him, and suddenly stomped his foot, as if he had made up his mind.

Lu Jia suddenly interrupted Xiao Jinxing's conversation with the leader of his command and said, "Xiao Datouren, it seems that the worms have made sufficient preparations for attacking the city this time, and the old man thinks that bows and arrows alone are no longer enough to stop the worms from reaching the city wall.

So please let Xiao Datou get out of the city and replace me with Huaxu warriors to defend the city.

Although the old man did not have the confidence to repel the worms, fortunately, after so many years, he also prepared some weapons to defend against siege.

I also asked Xiao Datou to lead the troops to retreat to the side and cheer for my Huaxu warriors.

If things change, we won't be able to hold the city, so we can ask your army to come to the city to help in the battle. ”

After finishing speaking, Lu Jia didn't wait for the stunned Xiao Jinxing to reply, and said to the leader of the Huaxu people behind him:

"Go and lead the troops to the city, and bring all those weapons with you."

After Lu Jia finished speaking, ignoring the excited and somewhat daze expression of the leader behind him, he said to Xiao Jinxing again:

"There are some things that I will explain to Xiao Datou later, but before that, I can ask Xiao Datou to watch the battle.

The performance of your army during the day has amazed the old man, although the Huaxu people have been defeated by the hands of the worms, but today we rely on the city wall to fight, and we have long been ready for everything. ”

Speaking of this, Lu Jia glanced at Xiao Jinxing meaningfully, and said solemnly and slowly:

"Xiao Datouren, didn't you ever suspect that our Huaxu people had taken refuge in the worms?

I'll tell you the real answer today. ”

After saying that, Ruga smiled and turned to leave.

And Xiao Jinxing, who stayed in the city, frowned, looked at Zhetuo and the others, who were also unknown, and suddenly said:

"Give the order to change the guard. Since Ruga is ready, let's let them do it, but let the brothers not take it lightly, and stay under the city walls after going down to the city, ready to support the city head at any time. ”

As Zhetuo and the others left in a hurry after receiving the order, Xiao Jinxing walked to the edge of the city with the support of Xin'er, looking at the hurried figures of the worms under the moonlight.

"The secret of the Huaxu people."

Xiao Jinxing frowned and muttered thoughtfully.

An hour later, the worms attacked like a tidal wave.

During this time, Xiao Jinxing had been paying attention to the Huaxu soldiers who had been transferred to the city wall, and was greatly surprised by the weapons they were holding.

I saw that except for a thousand archers, the rest of the soldiers were actually holding weapons similar to those of the Qin army Changge in the Guannei, but this weapon was more than a zhang long.

These long-armed soldiers stood behind the archers, watching closely at the rushing creeps, nervously holding the weapons in their hands.

Xiao Jinxing knew that these soldiers were ready to switch places with the soldiers who shot the arrows, because the quiver hanging from the waists of those archers really didn't hold a few bows and arrows. It is clear that they do not intend to use their bows and arrows to retreat from the enemy. But Xiao Jinxing also saw clearly that the archers' quivers were filled with rockets.

And what surprised Xiao Jinxing the most was that there were still some soldiers standing at the back of the crowd with small mud pots in their hands, and there were people under the city wall who kept carrying these mud pots to the city.

Xiao Jinxing smelled the pungent smell that had become pungent because of the appearance of these clay pots, and knew that the clay pots were most likely filled with fire oil and other substances.

And looking at the thick dust on those mud pots, it is obvious that they are all items that the Huaxu people have prepared for a long time.

From this point of view, the battle with the worms was not a temporary initiative of Ruga, nor was it a sudden decision to prove himself stimulated by the daytime battle of the Worms.

"It seems that the Huaxu people have been preparing for war with the worms for a long time, which is a little strange, why did they refuse me some time ago?"

Xiao Jinxing thought suspiciously.

How did he know that for more than 500 years before his appearance, the Huaxu people had always regarded themselves as the leaders of the struggle against the worms.

Although this is a secret, and only the patriarchs of the Huaxu clan know this secret, the pride of the patriarch will be passed on to everyone in the Huaxu clan, and it will make the Huaxu people have a kind of historical pride that shoulders a noble mission.

So when Xiao Jinxing invited them to fight against the worms, Lao Lujia was shocked and disdainful of Xiao Jinxing.

After all, the mission he shouldered was given by the messenger of the Immortal Heaven, Wu, and it was not comparable to Xiao Jinxing's half-way goods.

For more than 500 years, the Huaxu people's recuperation and recuperation have continued to grow, so they firmly believe that in the matter of fighting against the worms, except for the Huaxu people themselves, other tribes will definitely not succeed.

It wasn't until Xiao Jinxing told Lu Jia about the attitude of the Great Witch of Dragon City and Hua Xu Wu's words last night that Lu Jia gradually accepted the fact that Hua Xu was no longer the hope of the eight barbarian tribes.

But in any case, the Huaxu people once made some careful preparations in secret as a hope of resisting the worms.

So today, Lu Jia is going to take out these killer features together, so that people can see the courage of Huaxu people.
