Chapter 221: Soldiers Coming to the City
After coming out of the command room, he went straight to the house of the village chief of Yong and informed the other party of the bad news.
Hearing that the village was about to be attacked, Yong Xingwang's face was surprised, and at the same time, a line of anger flashed in his eyes!
I saw him knock his crutch the ground, and said with stubbornness and anger in his eyes
"It's only been quiet for a few days, why did someone come to attack our village's idea? When will this troubled world be the end! No way! The hope that we have finally seen, the old man will never allow anyone to destroy our village! General Hua, what should we do next? As long as you say a word, even if you let the old man charge, I am willing! ”
An old man in his sixties, when he heard that the enemy army was coming, he did not immediately think about running away, but wanted to stay and defend the village and fight the enemy army!
After listening to Yongxingwang's words, Huaxing was touched a lot.
With such a village chief here, why is the village not strong?
But then again, no matter how much it touches, Huaxing will not allow untrained ordinary villagers to fight. Soon, I saw Huaxing shaking his head and smiling while rejecting the village chief's kindness
"The village chief can have such courage, Hua really admires! But the matter of charging into battle and defending the homeland should be left to the next to deal with it. You can rest assured, as long as Hua still has a breath of air, he will never let the enemy break into the village for half a step! ”
"Then, what should the old man do to cooperate with the general?"
"First, please help me inform everyone that they should not leave the village for the time being, so as not to encounter danger; Second, I hope that the village chief can help us calm everyone's emotions, so that everyone will not be afraid, let alone panic. As long as these two points are achieved, it is the greatest support for Hua! ”
After hearing Huaxing's request, Yong Xingwang immediately nodded and patted his chest to reassure
"Please rest assured, the general will take care of this matter on the old man!"
……
On that day, after the deployment of the defensive army, it was already completely dark.
Returning to his hut, Hua Xing summoned all the "family members" to the courtyard and informed Dong Bai, Diao Chan and Hua Tuo of the news of the enemy's attack.
Later, for safety reasons, Huaxing also suggested that everyone should not go to the chicken farm and the hospital recently, and should stay with him in the barracks until the war is over.
After hearing the news, the three people in the audience were worried, frowned, and silent.
It took more than half a minute before Dong Bai took the lead in breaking the silence
"Big devil, how long will this battle take?"
"As far as the enemy army is concerned, it will be a month at most." Huaxing replied truthfully.
As soon as he heard that it would take so long, Dong Bai immediately shook his head
"Huh? Don't go to a chicken farm for a month? Aren't the chickens going to starve to death? No, no! Even if others don't go, I'll have to feed these guys every once in a while. ”
Hearing this, Diao Chan, who was standing on the side, also quickly joined Dong Bai's front
"What Sister Dong said is extremely true! Let's go together. I'll make the feed, you feed the chickens, and you must not let these little ones starve. ”
Seeing that the two girls refused to listen to persuasion, Huaxing frowned on the spot and said worriedly
"It's too dangerous for you to do this! If the enemy invades the village and we are not together, who will protect you then? ”
At this point, seeing that the second daughter still had no intention of compromise, Hua Xing had to sigh secretly and turned his head to ask Hua Tuo for help
"Old Hua, you can also say a few words, help me persuade these two girls who don't want to die."
But this time, Hua Tuo did not stand on Huaxing's side, but spoke for Dong Bai and Diao Chan
"Brother Hua, I don't think this matter is as exaggerated as you think, you just let them go. What about me...... I don't plan to take refuge in the barracks. Recently, the weather has been cold, and there are many sick people in the village, and my medical center has just opened, and I can't do without people recently......"
"You, you...... Is...... Alas! ”
Hearing that these three people refused to put down the work at hand, Huaxing was so angry that he couldn't even speak smoothly.
Seeing this scene, Hua Tuo hurriedly walked to Hua Xing's side, patted the other party's back, and persuaded at the same time
"Brother Hua, I know you are for our good. But first, we believe that you have the ability to defend against external enemies, and we are not worried that the enemy army will invade the village; Second, if the enemy army really invades the village, even if we are together, it will be difficult for you to protect us alone. So, alas, according to the old man's opinion, let it be as they want, and we will protect ourselves. ”
"Hua Lao is right! Sister Diao Chan and I will be safe, you don't have to worry about us! ”
"Well, Hua Lao has a point. The general only needs to concentrate on dealing with the enemy army, and there is no need to worry about us. I believe that as long as the general is present, it is impossible for the enemy army to enter the village. ”
Seeing that the attitude of these three people was so resolute, although Hua Xing was worried, he couldn't forcibly tie these three people to the barracks, right?
So in the end, he had to give up the persuasion and nodded reluctantly with a helpless face.
……
At dawn the next day, Huaxing ascended to the lookout near the north gate.
By the light of the red sun, he vaguely saw that a unit in white uniforms had been stationed five miles north of the village.
After frowning and muttering for a while, he heard Zhang Liao beside Hua Xingchong ask
"Is the scout who went to inquire about the news back this morning?"
"I'm back." Zhang Liao nodded back
"According to the scout's report, this force is indeed from the Youzhou Gongsun Zan army. There are more than 3,000 troops in the whole army, which is three times the strength of our army. ”
Due to the large difference in troops, speaking of this, Zhang Liao's eyes couldn't help but flash a grim color.
"Hmm. What kind of soldiers are they? How is the equipment? ”
"Of the three thousand, there were 100 cavalrymen, 100 archers, and the rest were ordinary spearmen. In terms of protective gear, only the generals wore armor, and the ordinary soldiers were only clothed. ”
"It seems that Gongsun Chan didn't send elite soldiers to come......"
After nodding and muttering to himself, Hua Xing wanted to ask a few more questions, but suddenly found that a group of cavalry in the opposite camp was running quickly towards the village.
In just a few minutes, a hundred horsemen and horses were already under the city, and the two armies met for the first time.
At the very front of this cavalry team, there were three people who were clearly dressed differently
The one who walked in front was wearing a green robe and light armor.
This person is nine feet long, his hair is two feet long, his face is like a heavy jujube, his lips are like grease, his eyes are red, his eyebrows are lying silkworms, and he is holding a green dragon glaive long knife in his hand.
The person who followed Guan Yu was eight feet long, with a leopard's head and eyes, swallow jaws and tiger whiskers, and a voice like thunder. Wearing a black suit of armor and carrying an eight-point snake spear, he looked very imposing.
This person was Zhang Fei, who was in the coalition camp and almost stabbed Huaxing to death with a snake spear.
