Chapter 350: Soldiers Descend on the City

After the dragoon arrived in the capital, he immediately went to the military headquarters, and after Lin Huo learned what had happened, he hurriedly rushed to the palace with the dragoon.

After rushing to the palace, the dragoons told Wang Lang in detail what had happened and the enemy's situation.

When he learned that those soldiers had died tragically at the hands of the enemy, Wang Lang was so grief-stricken that he pulled out the sword hanging on the wall and cut off a piece of the corner of the table with one sword.

"The barbarian alien race insulted my Great Xia warriors, and I will cut them under the sword to avenge my warriors."

Lin Huo looked at the furious Wang Lang and hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, the enemy is attacking our country on a large scale, what should we do now?" ”

Wang Lang snorted coldly and said, "What should I do?" Hmph, just 100,000 people want to destroy the inheritance of our human race, it is simply wishful thinking, and Li Mu was ordered to reinforce the harbor city, and the coastal garrison must hold the port and not let the enemy set foot on land. ”

Lin Huo bowed and said: "The minister's decree! ”

"Come here, send orders to all departments, and come to the Qinzheng Palace to listen to the discussion!" Wang Lang said loudly.

Soon after, the various ministers who got the news hurriedly rushed to the palace, and they were already clear about the situation, although the army was overwhelmed, but after hearing that there were only 100,000 people, they were not very flustered.

Xia now has more than 100,000 soldiers and tens of thousands of auxiliary soldiers, and the enemy is on an expedition to conquer Shenzhou, which is simply a joke.

Wang Lang waved his hand to stop the discussion of the ministers, and said in a deep voice: "You also know the situation, the enemy has invaded our country on a large scale, and we humans are facing the threat of extinction, and the enemy who came this time is only the strength of a country of dinosaur people, and after the situation in Shenzhou is known by more dinosaur people in the future, we will no longer face 100,000 enemies, but hundreds of thousands of millions of enemies, and we must play our national prestige in this battle, so that those dinosaur people dare not covet our homeland." ”

At this time, Lin Jianya clenched his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to ask for war!" ”

Since that time was deprived of military power, Lin Jianya's general soldier is basically in name only, although he has stayed in the capital for so many years, he has lived comfortably, married more than a dozen concubines, and has seven or eight offspring for himself, after so many years of precipitation, now Lin Jianya has long lost his original irritability, and has become a lot calmer, but he hopes to return to the army all the time, watching his former subordinates make a contribution, and now many of them have achieved a single high-ranking official, which makes him very envious in his heart.

Wang Lang looked at this subordinate who had followed him for more than ten years, pondered for a while, nodded and said, "Lin Jianya listens to orders!" ”

Lin Jianya's spirit was suddenly shocked when he heard this, and he hurriedly said loudly: "The minister is here!" ”

"Now Lin Jianya is the generalissimo of the expedition to the north to lead the northern army!"

Wang Lang's voice came into Lin Jianya's ears, and his blood immediately boiled with excitement, and he bowed: "Minister Lin Jianya leads the order." ”

Lin Huo looked at this brother who had grown up together since childhood, and finally regained Wang Lang's trust, and nodded with satisfaction.

After Wang Lang asked Lin Jianya to retreat, he continued: "Lin Shupi obeys the order!" ”

"The minister is here!"

"Feng Lin Shubark is the deputy marshal of the expedition to the north, and assists the marshal of the expedition to the north in a decisive battle with the enemy!"

Lin Shupi glanced at Lin Jianya, nodded and said, "Minister!" Command! ”

"Now that the enemy is present, all ministries must fully cooperate, and the Ministry of Household and Industry must ensure the supply of grain and grass.

After speaking, he looked at Lin Jianya and Lin Shupi, and said: "I will hand over the army to you, if you are defeated, you will not only live up to my expectations, but also live up to the expectations of mankind, if you are defeated, come and see you!" ”

Hearing this, the two of them suddenly became extremely solemn, and they clasped their fists and said, "I will definitely not let the enemy cross Guiyu City by half a step!" ”

"Good! The two of you will set off tomorrow, and you must rush to Guiyu City within half a month! ”

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

When the high-level officials of the Xia State were preparing for a decisive battle with the enemy, the news from the north finally spread to the people.

When they heard that the soldiers of the northern stronghold had resisted the enemy's army of more than 100,000 with a force of 300 men, the people were sincerely admired.

The young and vigorous students were as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and these warriors who spilled blood on the battlefield were just like those legends and stories, which made people's blood boil after listening to them.

Now the real deeds are happening all around them, these young students gathered together, cheering loudly, and some of the students held their swords and sang indulgently, eager to kill the enemy for the country with those warriors.

But unlike those excited people and students, in a mansion in Yancheng, a woman looked at the documents sent by the military department with a dull expression, and two lines of tears fell involuntarily.

A boy about ten years old beside him carefully tugged at the woman's sleeve and said, "Mother, don't cry. ”

When the woman heard this, she looked at her child, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, opened her red eyes, and said, "God, kneel down and kowtow to your father!" ”

The ten-year-old child has reached the age of sensibility, his father died in battle, although his heart is also very sad, but at this moment the boy seems to have grown up a lot, forced not to let himself cry, knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily to the north.

A few days later, when Lin Jianya and Lin Shupi led hundreds of personal guards to Guiyu City, an official of the Ministry of Rites knocked on the woman's door with soldiers.

The woman wore a white cloth on her head and opened the door of the room.

After seeing the woman, the official of the Ministry of Rites opened the decree and said loudly: "Lin is the order!" ”

When the woman heard this, she hurriedly brought her eldest son out and stood respectfully to listen to the official's announcement.

"Your Majesty has a will, the general Lin Ping, the enemy has meritorious, now posthumously Feng Lin Ping is the general of Dingbei, the official worships the second grade, and is buried in the tomb of the warrior, and now canonized Lin Ping's wife Lin Shi as the fourth grade of the wife, the month is two hundred, his eldest son Lin Tian is the general of the Royal Forest Army, the month is fifty times, and the second son of the forest land is the chief of the Royal Forest Army!"

After the official of the Ministry of Rites finished speaking, he put away the holy decree, raised it with both hands and handed it to Lin, and said, "Mrs. Lin, take the decree!" ”

The woman's eyes were red, she took the holy decree with trembling hands, and said respectfully: "The Lin family has thanked Your Majesty!" ”

"Mrs. Lin, please mourn!"

The woman nodded and said, "Thank you sir, the deceased husband is a general of Great Xia, and his fate is also his destiny to die in battle, Your Majesty can give him such an honor, presumably the deceased husband can also be blind in the sky." ”

The official nodded and said, "Mrs. Lin, this is your official uniform, these two are Ling Lang's, and the documents are inside, please keep them." ”

After the woman took the paperwork, the official said slowly: "Mrs. Lin, please mourn, I won't bother." ”

The woman nodded and said, "Sir, go slowly, and I won't be far away." ”

The official nodded and said, "Mrs. Lin stays!" ”

With that, he slowly walked away with the soldiers.

Closing the door, the woman finally began to cry.

Today, who was ten years old, hugged his younger brother, knelt beside the woman and whispered comfort: "Mother, my father is a warrior, and he doesn't want you to cry in heaven, the child has grown up, and I will protect you." ”

The woman touched Lin Tian's head and said with relief: "God, your father is a hero of the Xia Kingdom, and your mother will not remarry, you will be a man in this family in the future, don't let your father down!" ”

Lin Tian nodded solemnly and said, "The child knows!" ”

Northern!

Since the dinosaurs broke through the stronghold, they left a large army to settle down here, sending small troops to attack everywhere.

But Lin Ping's resistance bought precious time for the surrounding small villages, and when the dinosaur people pounced on these villages with murderous violence, they found that the place had already been emptied, and not even a grain of grain had been found.

When the commander of the dinosaur people learned of this, he didn't have a special expression and sent spies to search for traces of humans along the way.

Fighting on this strange continent, it had to be cautious, this expedition used one-third of the empire's army, if too much damage here, then after he returned home, what awaited him would be an extremely miserable end.

The army is its political capital, and it was thought that the conquest of the New World would allow him to fight for more voice in the country and trample those who are high above under his feet, but now the situation is completely different from what he imagined, and the strength of human civilization is far beyond his expectations.

The war itself was likely to be defeated, which forced him to stop his hurried pace and first stand firm in the New World and talk about other things.

After more than ten days of exploration, the spies sent out hurriedly returned.

They had discovered the human settlement, and when they heard the size of the human city, the dinosaur generals were taken aback.

A city of this scale is already on par with medium-sized cities in China.

After thinking about it for a long time, it still decided to make a move on this city, as long as it occupies it, it can only be said to have a firm foothold in the new continent.

With the protection of the fortified city, he can send the news back to the country, as long as the reinforcements arrive, even if the human race is tenacious, in the face of the iron hooves of the empire, there is only one end in ashes.

A whining horn sounded, and the dinosaur army began to assemble.

Returning to Fish City, Shi Yue and Zhao Jian were already ready for defense and quietly waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

The dragoons had already sent back Wang Lang's will, and after learning that Lin Jianya and Lin Shupi were coming, this made the two of them feel a lot more at ease.

The army in the north together is nearly 70,000 people, and as long as these troops are mobilized, the human side will have the confidence to fight the enemy in the field.

But the dinosaur people did not give humans time to assemble an army, and after discovering Guiyu City, the 70,000 army of dinosaur people killed in the direction of Guiyu City.

"Report!"

A dragoon hurriedly descended from the sky and reported loudly.

"General, the enemy's traces have been discovered, less than twenty miles away from us!"

When the two of them heard this, their hearts sank.

"Probe!" Shi Yue said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

The dragoons rolled over and rode on the pterodactyl and rushed into the sky.

"Damn monster, it's actually coming so fast, ordering all armies to get ready for battle!" Zhao Jian immediately commanded.

"Brother Zhao, it seems that this battle cannot be avoided." Shi Yue smiled bitterly.

Zhao Jian nodded and said, "It's not so easy for the enemy to break through Guiyu City, if you dare to come over, let them taste the taste of cannonballs." ”

The dragoons kept sending back the latest information about the enemy, and at noon the next day, the soldiers on the walls finally spotted the enemy's tracks.

In the pale green jungle, a silver line suddenly appeared, which was particularly conspicuous in the sunlight.

The two of them hurriedly took out their binoculars and looked over there, only to see piles of neatly arranged armies everywhere in the mountains, and the banners of the dinosaur people were hunting and sounding in the breeze.

"This dinosaur army's army is really not ordinary, and the level of discipline is no less than that of my Great Xia army!" Shi Yue said in a deep voice.

Zhao Jian laughed wickedly when he heard this: "I want to see what these dinosaur beasts can do!" ”

Because of the power of artillery, the army of dinosaur people arrived and set up camp five miles outside Guiyu City.

Looking at the majestic city of the human race, the slender eyes of the general of the dinosaur people narrowed slightly, and the height of the city's walls far exceeded his expectations.

In the face of such a fortified city, it suddenly felt extremely tricky, this was the first human city it had seen since setting foot on the Shenzhou Continent.

The casualties of trying to break through such a fortified city are immeasurable, but if this city is not breached, then the empire's plans for the New World will face bankruptcy.

If he withdraws from the New World in disgrace, his position in the empire will plummet, and he cannot afford to pay a price.

Ordered the craftsmen to make every effort to build siege equipment, as long as this fortified city was taken by himself, then this new world would basically fall into his own hands.

Seeing the enemy outside the city camping in an orderly manner, the two generals of Shi Zhao did not dare to go out to fight in the field.

After three days of preparation, a large number of siege equipment was built.

The whining horn echoed across the vast plains, banners hunting, silver armor surging in the sunlight like an ordinary silver tide.

"It looks like these guys are going to attack, and the back will be handed over to you, take care!" Shi Yue said in a deep voice.

Zhao Jian arched his hand and said, "Take care!" ”

Shi Yue hurriedly ran down the city wall and returned to his defense area, on the city wall archers and artillerymen were waiting for them, and under the city, the infantry gathered in a neat queue at the steps of the city, ready to fight the enemy on the wall at any time.

After three days of observation, the dinosaur people have figured out the general situation of the city, the structure of the city is a very ordinary square city, divided into four city gates, southeast, northwest and northwest, among which the south city gate looks the most solid, and the circumference of this city is very long, it is difficult to surround the city with the strength of the dinosaur people.

Therefore, after reconnaissance, the general decided to concentrate his forces and attack the relatively weak West City Gate with all his might.

Attacking this kind of Dacheng, it is unrealistic to want to collapse the city wall as before, and the main attack of the siege war is the city gate, as long as the city gate is broken, the city will basically fall.

Shi Zhao and the others naturally knew this, and the troops placed in the city gates were also several times as many as in the rest of the places.
