The old fishmonger only felt that it was dark in front of him, and turned his head to look at the street, the people were already in a panic, dragging the family and the family to push the car towards the north gate, this panic will not be long before it spreads to the whole city, where to find a wife and children in this mess?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but slap himself hard, it's okay to call his wife and daughter out! Now it's good that if you're not careful, your wife will be separated.

He didn't dare to delay any longer, and ran towards the north gate with his two sons, he only hoped that the stupid woman would be smart enough to run towards the city gate.

The guard of Wuling City was a bearded man, looking at the pirates wearing armor outside the city, he took a deep breath and shouted to the soldiers: "Brothers, this city is now full of pirates, and Lao Tzu can't count how many people there are, we can't defend this city." But Lao Tzu doesn't plan to escape, I have already sent someone to report the news. Lao Tzu hoped that we could hold out until reinforcements arrived, and at the worst of all, buy time for the women and children in the city to flee for their lives. Lao Tzu didn't force you to die here, if you wanted to leave, you said, put down your sword and gun and took off your armor, Lao Tzu let him go. “

After he finished speaking, there was silence on the castle tower, and everyone was dodging his hot eyes. Suddenly, a soldier with a young face raised his hand and said timidly: "General, I, I want to go." ”

"Then take off your armor and come to me." The guard was stunned for a moment and showed a mouthful of white teeth, grinning and beckoning to the soldier, the soldier quickly took off his armor, walked to the guard a little timidly, and before he could speak, he was strangled by the guard with his arm, the strength was too great for the soldier to resist at all, and after a while, his face turned purple, and his two hands weakly broke the guard's arm.

"At this time of existential danger, when I live and die with Wu Ling, those who dare to retreat will be killed, and those who desert will be killed, even if it is my own son, I will die." The guard said with a hideous face, but tears of sadness flowed in his eyes, the little soldier in his hand hung down weakly, his eyes bulged, and his blank expression obviously did not expect that he would die like this.

Those veterans looked at the guards with hideous faces in shock, they were all old fritters, and when they heard the guards talk about only buying time for the women and children in the city, they knew that the guards would not let go even the light and strong in the city.

And the sentence he asked was just to find someone to deter the soldiers, but no one expected that the son of the guard would say such words that he didn't know whether to live or die, and what they didn't expect was that the guard would be able to do it.

"We swear to live and die with Wu Ling!"

The soldiers on the tower shouted in unison after the shock, and the guard crouched down and gently lowered his son to the ground, and when he stood up, his body was as tall as a mountain.

"Pass on my military order, all the city towers are strictly guarded, the north city will send three hundred soldiers over, only women, children and the elderly are allowed to go out of the city, and the light and strong will be left to defend the city, and the Hou Ye will definitely send a large army to support us soon." Burning boiling oil, transporting stone balls, checking weapons and bows and arrows, they will come if they dare to attack the city, and let them die when they come. ”

The guards roared loudly, and the soldiers were also infected by him, shouting at the top of their voices: "Come and die!" ”

Songwen and Garman, who were outside the city, smiled disdainfully when they heard the roar, and then they fell into full swing, and they besieged but did not attack, or it would not be long before this momentum would subside.

The north gate was already crowded with people, and the officials and officers and soldiers were struggling to maintain order, and even the swords and guns were unsheathed.

"Let us out of town, we don't want to die."

"Yes, there are so many pirates, this city must not be defended, we have to go."

"You soldiers don't drag us to death, open the city gate quickly, we are going to Hailing."

……

There was a great terror between life and death, and the common people looked at the bright knives in the hands of the officers and soldiers, and were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak, and looked anxiously at the closed city gate.

But the city fox society rats who are usually afraid of the government all jumped out at this time, and they didn't dare to say much when they saw the officials on the board, but now it's different, staying in the city is dead or alive, and the left and right are dead, what are they afraid of? Hiding in the crowd and constantly inciting the people.

In a short time, the people rushed tentatively to the city gate in great panic, hoping to break through the defensive line and open the city gate. The official doesn't care if it's you a flat-headed commoner or an old and weak person, who rushes to the front and gets beaten with a stick, and the ghost cries and howls and keeps retreating.

"All the mothers have stood up for Lao Tzu, the guards have their lives, the old people, women and children left from the north gate and went to Hailing for refuge, and all the light men stayed to guard the city, giving the old people and women and children time to escape."

The captain who blocked the north gate roared, and the officers and soldiers in front of him also roared, and the loud voices of hundreds of people conveyed the captain's words to everyone's ears.

All the people are at a loss, it's not a drag on their families to flee! In this way, wouldn't you have to face life and death?

The atmosphere of sadness was pervasive, and several students carried their bags on their wives' backs, and stood weakly against the city wall with a wooden stick, not even daring to look at their wives and children.

Slowly, more and more people handed over their heavy bags to their wives and children, and leaned on the city wall like a student, and the confused and desperate look couldn't be said to be sad.

The two sons of the old fishmonger also put the pots and pans on their backs gently into the hands of the old fishmonger, and one of them stood under the city wall with a flat pole, and the old fishmonger put the extremely heavy fellow on the wheelbarrow, picked up his fishing net and fishing fork and walked to his son and squatted on the ground without speaking.

He felt that he was not old, his sons were young and reckless, he had to stay and take care of him, his mother-in-law wiped her tears and pushed the car with her daughter out of the city, her husband wanted face for the rest of his life, how could he let his son stay in the city alone?

Now that the rules have been set, the order has been formed at once, the young man who sent off his family stood silently at the city wall, and the people who did not arrive in the row accompanied the family to say parting words, tears and sadness became the only color between heaven and earth at this moment, and the resolute eyes of the guard sitting on the steps were always mixed with a trace of indelible sadness.

He didn't understand why the pirates didn't attack, and they didn't attack the city until the sun went down, and the old and weak women and children in the city were gone.

After a night, the pirates still did not attack the city, but hundreds of people died in the city overnight, and the city fox society rats were greedy for life and afraid of death, so they organized dozens of people to take advantage of the night to relax and force the north gate to escape, but they were chopped into meat sauce by the angry soldiers.

There were also some people who wanted to run away and put ropes on the city wall, but the soldiers defending the city waved their knives with indifferent eyes, and people fell from the city wall, fell on the rocks, and their brains burst far away.

Hailing is not far from Wuling, and the horse goes back and forth for a day, that night Lu Zhengqiu knew about the pirate soldiers surrounding Wuling, he and Jiang Wei didn't sleep all night, rescue or not rescue This is a big problem, although the soldiers who reported the news said that there were tens of thousands of pirates, but he didn't dare to take risks, what if the tiger was transferred away from the mountain?

"What to do? You can't just look at it, can you? As for Wu Ling's 2,000 troops, even if you add the light and strong people in the city, there are no more than 5,000 at most. If tens of thousands of pirates attack the city, they will die. ”

Jiang Wei said irritably, Lu Zhengqiu said that he would send 2,000 people over, but he directly vetoed it, and when 2,000 people got there, he sent sheep into the tiger's mouth, and he said that bringing 20,000 people over to support was also vetoed by Lu Zhengqiu, 20,000 people passed, Hailing can be empty, and when the time comes, it will be outflanked by people before and after, and the whole army will definitely be wiped out.
