At about ten o'clock in the morning, the camp tent of the dinosaur people was crowded, and one by one the phalanxes were assembled.

The soldiers knew that the enemy was attacking, and this time the attack would be as fierce as a raging storm.

When the enemy's distinctive horn sounded, the phalanx slowly advanced in the direction of the stronghold.

Escorted by a large number of infantry, more than a dozen stone throwers slowly moved forward.

At a distance of several hundred meters from the stronghold, the enemy's infantry stopped advancing.

And the soldiers who operated the trebuchet were skillfully busy.

The general will see through his binoculars that the dinosaur people will be holding torches and igniting the stones that stand in the way of the launcher.

A moment later, he saw more than a dozen huge fireballs coming straight towards him.

"Get down!"

Looking at the huge fireball whirring in, the soldiers lowered their bodies and hid behind the battlements.

"Boom, boom!"

Several fireballs crashed into the city walls, and the walls shook violently, and the small stronghold crumbled under the stormy attack.

Some of those fireballs landed in the city, and after smashing the houses, the fire spread instantly, and no one cared about the damaged houses, they knew that this stronghold might cease to exist after today.

The enemy soon carried out a second blow, after the first round of bombardment, the not very strong city wall had already appeared spider web-like cracks, when the second round of attack came, suddenly out of the city was instantly bombarded, the soldiers hiding there screamed and were smashed out, and the boulder was directly hit by the mud has already supported a mess of flesh.

The enemy's offensive was so fierce that the soldiers defending the city had no choice.

After several rounds of blows, a wall was finally blown down, and a large gap was strewn with a large number of bricks and human corpses.

The city was on fire, the granary poured with oil came out of the billowing smoke, the air was mixed with the smell of rice, and the smell of barbecue was faintly smelled.

Seeing that the human wall had been blown down, the dinosaur people immediately cheered.

The catapult stopped firing, and piles of soldiers in silver armor rushed through the gap like a tidal wave.

The general smiled bitterly and shouted: "Brothers, today we will live and die with the city!" Kill the enemy with me! ”

The soldiers roared angrily and, led by the general, pounced on the gap.

Hundreds of men, in the face of the enemy's army of hundreds of thousands, their strength is as weak as a mantis arm as a car, although the human soldiers are very stubborn to resist the enemy's attack, the grenadiers even set fire to all the grenades on their bodies, holding the enemy and dying with them, extremely heroic.

This narrow gap has already been piled up like a mountain of corpses, and the tenacity of humans has moved the dinosaurs, and it is the soldiers who are attacking, and they have already accepted their own arrogant hearts, and they do not regard these humans as inferior beasts, but as an opponent worthy of respect.

The general Li He was killed in battle, and the guards around him fell one after another, and the general's steel knife had already been cut to the blade, and at this moment, he was waving the steel knife in his hand like a bloody man.

At this moment, his arms were already extremely sore, but he knew that the moment he put down the knife was his own death, and he could kill one more enemy before he died.

Of the more than 100 soldiers, only five remained, and these five soldiers and the generals gathered tightly together, fighting and retreating from the enemy.

"Retreat in the direction of the artillery." The general yelled.

Following the general retreated to the city wall, the dinosaur people didn't know what these humans were still resisting, they must be dead, why not lay down their weapons early, wouldn't it be better to die happily.

The six of them gathered at the cannon on the city wall and watched as the enemy slowly surrounded them.

"Your Majesty, the minister has done his best." The general muttered in a low voice, and then said in a loud voice: "Brothers, I will wait for the kingdom of heaven to be brothers." ”

When the soldiers heard this, they shouted, "We will follow the general to the death." ”

Several people leaned against the artillery, thinking about the south, and a smile appeared on their faces.

With a loud bang, accompanied by a large number of dinosaur corpses, all 300 soldiers were killed in battle, and this nameless stronghold fell completely after holding out for three days.

Yancheng in the south.

Wang Lang was compiling a new book, but for some reason he suddenly became uneasy, holding the brush in a daze, and the ink dripped on the paper without realizing it.

Fanxing, who was struggling to sew clothes for Wang Lang, stopped the needle and thread in his hand, walked to Wang Lang's side, and said, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you." ”

Wang Lang came back to his senses, frowned and said, "It's nothing! It's just a little upset, by the way, what time is it? ”

Fanxing looked at the moon in the night sky and said, "It's almost midnight, Your Majesty should rest early." ”

Wang Lang nodded and said, "You go to sleep first, this candle is dim and easy to hurt your eyes." ”

Fanxing smiled: "Your Majesty also said that me, aren't you also Rongfu yourself hurt your eyes?" ”

"Alas, as a departed king, this is what I should do, and I went to sleep after writing for a while."

At this time, a guard suddenly reported in a panic: "Your Majesty, the secretary of the military department asks to see you." ”

When Wang Lang heard this, he was taken aback, and hurriedly got up from his seat, something terrible must have happened when Lin Huo came so late.

"Hurry up and let him in."

Hearing this, Fanxing on the side quietly retreated to the inner hall, he knew that Wang Lang was very disgusted with women participating too much in political affairs.

Lin Huo ran in in with a panicked expression and said, "Your Majesty, something is wrong, the dragoons have sent news, and the wolf smoke has risen in the north." ”

"What!" Wang Lang was shocked and hurriedly asked, "When is it?" ”

"It's been almost five days since the news got here." Lin Huo said worriedly.

"It's been five days." Wang Lang muttered to himself and asked, "But there is still detailed news." ”

Lin Huo shook his head and said, "No, Your Majesty, the north has a large population, and there is no accident there at all, unless those dinosaur people come." ”

Wang Lang knew that he must not panic at this time, took a few deep breaths, tried to calm his mood, and was silent for a while and said: "Seeing that it is very likely to be so, I didn't expect that the enemy would choose to attack in the north, the coastal defense in the north is weak, and now it has been five days, if those dinosaur people come, I am afraid that the front stronghold has been broken by now." ”

"Your Majesty, if the front-line stronghold is breached, then the enemy will soon be able to arrive in Guiyu City, where there are heavy guards, as long as the people are withdrawn from the city, I believe that Guiyu City should be able to hold out until the arrival of reinforcements." Lin Huo said slowly.

"Who is the current guard of Guiyu City?" Wang Lang asked.

"It's Shi Yue and Zhao Jian, two generals, and there are about 20,000 soldiers stationed there." Lin Huo said slowly.

Wang Lang nodded and said: "With these two people guarding there, it should be fine to return to Yucheng, you now immediately order the army in the north to reinforce Guiyucheng, and at the same time order the troops stationed on the coast, the soldiers should not act rashly, they must guard the port, if there is disobedience, they will be killed!" ”

Lin Huo nodded solemnly and hurriedly retreated.

That night, the yamen of the military department was brightly lit, and the officials drafted various documents and sent dragoons to the north overnight.

Wang Lang clenched his fists to relieve his tension, after several years of military expansion, it was time to test the results, and whether or not he could defeat the attacking dinosaur people would determine whether humans would live or die.

After breaking through the human stronghold, the dinosaur people reorganized the human stronghold and used it as a base to invade the human continent.

After the dinosaurs on board came ashore one after another, a large number of warships marched south along the coastline.

According to those explorers, there are important ports for mankind in the south, and as long as the sea power of mankind is wiped out, it can completely block the human race on this great road.

There are 70,000 or 80,000 dinosaur people gathered in the stronghold, and such a large number of people may be the largest number of dinosaur people since ancient times.

The superior of the dinosaur man was interested in the weapons that humans could make loud noises.

However, with the self-detonation of the grenadiers and the explosion of the artillery, only a remnant of gunpowder remained.

This black powder, although it doesn't know what it is, but let people carefully collect these powders, take them back and let those wise men study, as long as Shi Lunjia masters this technology of human beings, I believe that the empire will become the overlord of the old continent in one fell swoop, and the unification of the old continent will no longer be a fantasy.

The sophistication of human weapons made it very surprised, and it can be seen from the weapons and armor collected that the human beings here have mastered extremely advanced smelting technology, and the quality of steel is not inferior to that of their own side.

What's more, the specifications of these weapons are very uniform, as if they were carved out of a mold, which has to make it feel moved.

This is a very formidable opponent, it thought to himself.

Returning to Yucheng, when they saw the wolf smoke rising, Shi Yue and Zhao Jian immediately mobilized all their soldiers and horses and returned to Guiyucheng.

As an important town in the north, there can be no mistakes here, if the enemy breaks through here, he can drive straight into the hinterland of the Xia Kingdom.

If they fight in the hinterland of the Xia Kingdom, it will cause immeasurable losses, and the pressure on the two can be said to be very huge.

The front-line stronghold successfully slowed down the enemy's advance, giving the defenders of Guiyu City plenty of time to prepare.

In the past three days, the prefect of Guiyucheng hurriedly issued notices informing villages and towns that they were forbidden to go out, and asked local officials to lead the villagers to prepare for resistance.

In the villages and towns that are relatively close to Guiyucheng, all the villagers have moved to the city, and there are no signs of human activity outside the city.

In three days, the defenders of the strongholds in various places hurriedly retreated back to Yucheng, and the arrival of more than 20,000 troops immediately made the city obviously crowded.

In order to cope with the upcoming war, Guiyucheng has stored a large amount of grain in the past few years, as long as the city is not breached, it is enough for tens of thousands of people in the city to eat for several months.

Zhao Jian and October were now on the high city wall, looking into the distance, and now five days had passed since the signal was issued, and there was not the slightest news from the front line, so the two had an ominous premonition.

The dragoons had already set out to inquire about the news, and the two could only wait anxiously for the news to come back.

Half a day later, several huge figures flew in the sky, and the two of them hurriedly asked people to go to answer them.

After the dragoons landed, they quickly ran over and reported: "Two generals, the stronghold has been occupied by the enemy, most of the city walls have collapsed, front-line soldiers, front-line soldiers... ”

Seeing the appearance of this dragoon, Zhao Jian suddenly said angrily: "Tell me quickly, what's wrong with the front-line soldiers." ”

The dragoons choked up a little and said, "General Hui, we saw in the sky that all our soldiers had been killed, their heads had been cut off and stuck in sticks, and their corpses were eaten by wild beasts. ”

"What!" Zhao Jian's eyes were about to crack when he heard this, his fist slammed on the wall, and he said with a hideous face: "Dare to do this to my Great Xia warriors, damn monster, I, Zhao Jian, will definitely wait for you to peel your skin and cramp." ”

Although Shi Yue was extremely angry in his heart, he was still calm and asked, "How many enemies are there?" ”

"It's a lot, it's black, and it looks like it's about the same as the number of people in Fish City." The dragoon said in a deep voice.

Shi Yue gasped when she heard this, "Tens of thousands of people, so many people came. ”

"General, we see that a large number of enemy ships are moving south along the seashore, and I am afraid that they are going to attack our ports." The dragoons spoke of their findings.

When Shi Yue heard this, she hurriedly said, "You guys rest for a while, and immediately fly to Jingshi to explain the situation here in detail." ”

The dragoon led the order to bow down and retreat, and after a short rest, he put on a new pterodactyl and flew desperately in the direction of Yancheng.

The people of Guiyucheng were panicked, the people were organized to carry the equipment to defend the city, dozens of bronze cannons were piled up with a large number of shells, and such a large-scale use of artillery was not only the first time in human history, but also the first time in this world.

"Brother Zhao, the pressure on you and me this time is extremely huge!" Shi Yue said slowly.

When Zhao Jian heard this, he said in a deep voice: "So many brothers in Pao Ze died in battle, and the corpses were so humiliated, I hate it!" ”

Shi Yue sighed and said: "They are facing hundreds of times the enemy with only three hundred people, holding on for so long, we will never let them sacrifice in vain, we must defend the fish city, otherwise we will face them after we die, you and I have known each other for many years, this time let's advance and retreat together!" ”

Zhao Jian nodded and said, "This is where they are buried." ”

The existence of pterosaurs makes the Xia Kingdom different from the feudal era of another world, and now the area controlled by the Xia Kingdom is comparable to the Song Dynasty in the other world.

With dragoons, it only takes more than twenty days to reach from south to north.

After taking off from Guiyucheng and changing pterosaurs at the post stations along the way, the dragoons finally arrived in Yancheng five days later.

The news of the dinosaur attack, which has already spread in Yancheng, the people saw the dragoons flying from the sky, and they all knew that there was new news coming from the front line.

Women who have husbands and sons serving in the Northern Army are anxiously waiting for news from the imperial court, and the last thing they want to see is that list of the dead.
