"Hmm." Yuan Xi nodded and said, "The soldiers are fast, we will go to Huguan tomorrow." ”

......................

......................

Chun Yuqiong returned to Huguan and immediately convened the generals to discuss the matter of defending the city.

"The lord ordered me to hold the pass until reinforcements arrived. I estimate that I will have to keep the pot closed for half a month, do you have any countermeasures? Chun Yuqiong asked.

"The danger of Huguan is rare in the world, and if Yuan Xi wants to get in, it's not so easy, right?"

"yes."

"We have 30,000 elites, why is it difficult to guard him for half a month?"

.............

The generals of Huguan do not seem to realize the seriousness of the problem.

"Have you ever seen a giant beast more than ten meters tall? Have you ever seen a flying monster? A group of frogs at the bottom of the well, who know how to drink all day long, dare to underestimate the enemy army so much? Chun Yuqiong has seen Yuan Xi's power, but she doesn't dare to have the idea of contempt.

"General Zheng Yun, the garrison of Huguan has always been in charge of you. Tell me, how many other city defense equipment are there in the gate? How much kerosene? Chun Yuqiong looked at one of the generals on the left.

Zheng Yun arched his hand and said: "Back to the general, the fire oil in the pot has been burned by Yuan Xi a few days ago. As for the equipment, there are 5,000 chariots of all sizes, 700 crossbow chariots, and 100 catapults. All the crossbow arrows and boulders are ready. Enough to defend the city. ”

"Where's the oil? Is there really nothing at all? Chun Yuqiong is still more concerned about this.

Only fire oil can destroy Yuan Xi's giant beast.

As for the device, no matter how powerful it is, it is limited. Behemoths don't necessarily work when they put on thick armor.

"There's still oil left... About fifty catties are stored in the school grounds. Zheng Yun's voice was lowered.

Fifty pounds?

Too little!

Used on the battlefield, even a giant beast is difficult to destroy.

Chun Yuqiong pondered for a moment, and said angrily: "Post a notice immediately, search the whole city, and all the people who have fire oil at home must be handed over to the government." Oh no... I buy it from them! Heavy money purchase! ”

"General Hui, a notice has been posted. These fifty catties of fire oil were handed over by the people of Huguan. Another general said.

"What?!"

Chun Yuqiong originally thought that she had thought of a good idea, but she didn't expect it to expire.

Zheng Yun said: "General, don't worry, we have enough equipment. It's also very powerful. Yuan Xi's giant beast couldn't get close to the city tower at all. There was also the moat outside the city, which we dug more than a foot wider, and brought in water from other places. In the moat, there are many iron spears, and if the enemy falls, he will surely die. ”

"Not only that, but there is one strong ballista in the city, one every other zhang, and each of the five soldiers operates, which can attack non-stop. On both sides and under the tower, a hundred catapults were placed. As long as Yuan Xi rushed to attack the city. Within two hundred meters outside the city, they will be covered with boulders and iron spears. The last general believed that under such a dense attack, it would be impossible for him to cross the castle. The general who said this was Long Yunzhi, the second guard general stationed in Huguan.

After Long Yunzhi finished speaking, Chun Yuqiong's face looked a little better.

In any case, the equipment and garrison of the pot are very good. Except that there is no kerosene.

Chun Yuqiong didn't dare to guarantee that he would be able to defend the Huguan, but judging from the current situation, it seemed that it would not be so easy for Yuan Xi to conquer the Huguan.

"From now on, all of us will move to the Tibetan Soldier Cave in the Huguan City Tower, and no one is allowed to leave without my order. The army in the city, resting in shifts, ready to be dispatched at any time... ”

"Remember, I only need fifteen days! Hold on to Huguan for 15 days, it is our victory! Chun Yuqiong said solemnly.

"Yes..."

The congregation will respond loudly.

Next.

It's noon.

Yuan Xi, Gao Lan, and Zhang Jaw led 140,000 troops and set up camp five miles away from Huguan. Jaw is in charge of guarding the camp. Yuan Xi and Gao Ran led 20,000 troops to the outskirts of Huguan and prepared for a tentative attack.

"It's coming, it's coming..." The soldiers stationed on the tower of Huguan City suddenly saw the arrival of the enemy army, and they couldn't help but scream in unison.

"Where, where?"

A group of generals hiding in the hiding hole ran out quickly.

Chun Yuqiong also followed out of the cave and reprimanded those soldiers: "What are you calling blindly? ”

"Hugh has to disturb the morale of the army..."

"It doesn't seem like there are many enemies?" Long Yunzhi said.

"Well, I guess I want to test our garrison. Generals, don't let Yuan Xi underestimate him. He dared to attack the city, so he let him come and go! Chun Yuqiong said.

"Yes..."

The generals are full of confidence.

Knock knock...

War drums rang out outside the city.

There were about 3,000 soldiers, carrying ladders, and slaughtered the tower.

Immediately afterwards, there was also a nearly twenty-meter-long Titan Python, as the vanguard of the siege, running at the front.

"Where's the oil, prepare the oil!" Seeing the giant python, Chun Yuqiong felt that her scalp was numb.

"General, let's just a few dozen catties of oil, are you going to have them all?"

"Don't talk nonsense, bring it all!"

Chun Yuqiong shouted anxiously.

Soon.

Dozens of catties of fire oil were moved to the city.

Chun Yuqiong called two soldiers over and was responsible for pouring oil.

"When that python comes, you pick up the oil and pour it on it." Chun Yuqiong commanded.

"Ahh This..... The two soldiers shuddered. I feel like half of my life is gone.

"Those who disobey military orders will be beheaded immediately!" Chun Yuqiong turned his face sideways.

"Yes, yes..."

The two soldiers hurriedly agreed.

They carefully carried the fire oil and hid it behind the strong pier.

The siege echelon was still 100 meters away from the tower.

Yuan Xi and Gao Lan stared intently. Gao Ran said: "I listened to the reports of the detailed workers in the Huguan, there are many large instruments in the Huguan, I don't know if these instruments can cause harm to the giant beast. ”

"The armor on the giant python's body was made by Pu Yuan himself, and it can block the shots of small powerful crossbows. As for the large crossbow, it has never been tried. I hope I can resist it. Yuan Xi said.

"Yuan Shang really took great pains to keep the pot pass."

"He should be here soon....

"Before that, we must capture the Huguan!" Yuan Xi said resolutely.

"With the lord in charge in person, the soldiers will work harder. I believe that the city will be broken soon, the lord will wait and see? Gao Ran smiled.

"Good. Just look at the results of your training of the Montenegrin Army in the past year. Yuan Xi said.

As he spoke, the three thousand siege echelons had already run to the east bank of the moat. However, when the soldiers threw the pontoon bridge on the moat and prepared to cross it, they were surprised to find that the moat was too wide and the pontoon bridge was too short to be built. And in the moat, there are obviously a lot of iron spear tips, which stand upside down, making people creepy. If someone accidentally falls, it is conceivable that they will die on the spot.

The soldiers gasped and stopped on the riverbank.
