The sky became darker and darker, and the cold wind roared as wantonly as before, and the barren northern land sprinkled a biting chill that had not been dispersed for a long time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Standing on the head of the city, Liu hoped for the lights in the distance, his face was expressionless, so that people could not see whether they were happy or worried, Qu Lang and Xiao Wu silently guarded on one side, while the rest of the soldiers were carefully cleaning the arrows scattered at the head of the city, and always vigilantly stared at the Huns who had been encamped.

"My lord, it's not good......"

Under the sound of hurried footsteps, a slightly hasty call came, but it was Huyan Qingshi who went out to inquire about the news, after the first battle of the day, he insisted on asking for orders to go out of the city, and went to the direction of Xiapi and Yecheng to check whether the two cities were safe or not.

The three cities of the north, Yangqu is the place that must pass through the south, and Xiapi and Yecheng are connected to their horns, if the two have been broken, Yangqu will have to suffer from the enemy, which is undoubtedly worse.

Therefore, hearing Huyan Qingshi's panicked voice, Liu Xi hurriedly turned around to meet him, and Xiong Gang in front of him strode forward, supported the panting Huyan Qingshi, glared at him and shouted in a low voice, "Calm down, don't mess up the army's heart!" ”

Hearing this, Huyan Qingshi hurriedly stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, but his eyes looked at Liu Xi who came over with a look of panic, and beads of sweat on his forehead continued to overflow.

In this case, something must have happened, but Xiong Gang was also right, the enemy is at present, don't mess with the morale of the army, Liu Xi quietly brought Huyan Qingshi to the stone staircase at the head of the city, "Break the captive, don't worry, what happens, come one by one." ”

Huyan Qingshi looked around, and saw that the soldiers were far away from here, so he hurriedly said the words that were holding back in his heart, "My lord, dozens of miles ahead, I found traces of the Huns. ”

"How many?"

"The number is higher than that of the Huns outside the city."

As soon as these words came out, Xiong Gang, Qu Lang and others all looked at each other, and the tens of thousands of enemy troops outside the city had already made Yangqu Town overstretched.

For a while, several people only felt that their hearts were falling like a boulder, and they were overwhelmed, and they didn't know what to do, so they all looked at Liu Xi, who was silent.

After a long time, Liu Xi, who was silent with his head bowed, broke the silence, "General Xiong, how many soldiers are there in the city?" ”

"There are still sixty people left in the Hengchong Brigade, and the last general came with the adults, Yu Shuai only sent 100 people from the Qinglong Battalion, and about 500 soldiers in Luo Shan's hands......"

Speaking of this, Xiong Gang stopped, turned to Xiao Wu and looked at him, and continued, "There were more than 3,000 soldiers recruited a while ago, but they were just ......."

The meaning of the words, several people understand, now the city has experienced a hundred battles, that is, the remaining dozens of people in the Rampage Brigade and the flying armor led by Xiong Gang, Luoshan's troops are less and always less sharp, and those soldiers who have just been recruited Although they have Guo Wei and Xiaowu's training, they are only a little stronger than ordinary people, where can they be able to defeat the Huns who are skilled in bows and horses?

What's more, even if all the soldiers are added together, there are only more than 3,000 people, and the army outside the city is more than 30,000.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Xi said very firmly, "No matter what, we must hold the city gate, if we can't wait for reinforcements from the imperial court, at least we must wait for Luo Shan to transfer the people out safely." ”

"The last will understand."

Xiong Gang nodded solemnly, although Liu Xi had the intention of giving up Yangqu City in the end, but he understood that this was already the result of his current best efforts, what would happen in the future, Xiong Gang didn't want to think about it, and now, these are not things that he can change by himself.

Perhaps, by that time, he had died on the battlefield.

"Cheer up the brethren."

Listening to Liu Xi's instructions, Xiong Gang took the order to go and shouted at the city, of course, he had led the troops for many years, so he naturally knew what to say and what not to say, so for a while, he only heard his rough voice talking about the previous defeat of the Huns, so that the soldiers and soldiers all smiled and agreed.

Listening to this voice, Huyan Qingshi, who was relieved, looked at the silent lights in the wind and snow outside the city and said in a daze, "Will they attack the city at night?" ”

"Yes."

Liu Xi said softly, his brows tightened, when he arrived at the current field, he had nothing to do, the real grain that the imperial court should have sent had not yet been seen, it was obvious that he was busy dispatching grain and grass, and he had no idea that the Hun army was coming.

"Your Excellency is there?"

When Liu Xi was depressed, a voice came, and Huyan Qingshi beside him answered, and then saw Guo Wei coming over quickly.

"My lord, the Huns are tired from running around, maybe they will relax their vigilance, it is better to stay in the middle of the night, and let their subordinates lead people to attack the camp to kill him by surprise."

Guo Wei looked at Liu Xi very expectantly, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the Huns attacked for a long time, but they hit a wall in front of Yangqu City, losing several games in a row, and at this moment it must be a big drop in morale, so he is sure that even if it is a rampage brigade with dozens of people, it can also mess up the enemy camp, maybe God favors it, so that the other party bombs the camp and reduces the pressure on the brothers defending the city.

Undoubtedly, this is an extremely correct choice, before coming to ask Liu Xi for instructions, Guo Wei has even asked the brothers to bring knives and horses, and wait for him to go back to the city to kill the enemy together.

In his heart, Guo Wei expected that Liu Xi would agree to his request.

"This matter is not appropriate, Brother Guo should not be impatient."

"My lord, this ......"

Anxious, Guo Wei clenched his fists, and was about to ask Liu Xi for his life again, when a rumbling sound came from the silent night, which seemed to appear out of thin air from the invisible darkness in the distance, and the whole earth shook with it.

After this movement came out, Guo Wei's face turned white, he had been in northern Xinjiang for many years, he was very familiar with the sound of the Huns' horses' hooves, and immediately understood the reason why Liu Xi did not allow him to go out of the city to sneak attack.

A large number of Huns came outside the city.

When Guo Wei was in a cold sweat, Liu Xi had already hurried to the battlements, and the startled soldiers quickly stabilized their minds in Xiong Gang's roar, picked up the knife and arrow in their hands, and stared at the indistinct figure in the darkness with bated breath.

"Hiss......"

Soon, the silence in front of the city was heard by the chaotic sound of horses' hooves and horses' chirping, and in the midst of the longing of the figures, under the countless new torches, the group rode to the two miles of the city wall.

Under the wind and snow in the night, others may not be able to see it, but Liu Xi can still see clearly, the leader is middle-aged, his body is more burly than ordinary Huns, and the most important thing is that his eyes are sharp, like a sword, straight through the long snowflakes, which fell on Liu Xi's body very accurately.

"That's the King of the Huns, Nuhar!"

While holding his hands on the wall tiles, Guo Wei, who was staring, suddenly exclaimed, hearing this, Liu Xi was also shocked, and looked towards Nuhar, which latter had already pulled the string with a bow in his hand, and between breaths, he saw a black shadow breaking through the layers of wind and snow, and it was as fast as lightning towards Liu Xi's door.
