Chapter 62: The City Breaks

Guan Yu went for a day and a night, and the next morning, he finally rushed back, but he was the only one who came back, and Su Chen subconsciously felt bad. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Fetch water!"

Su Chen saw that Guan Yu almost fell off the horse, he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and ordered someone to bring a water hose and feed him to drink, Guan Yu regained his senses and opened his eyes.

Seeing that he was awake, Su Chen hurriedly asked, "Senior Brother Yun, what happened?" Why are you the only one coming back? ”

There are ten scouts brought by Guan Yu, all of whom are martial artists above the realm of skin refining, and now he is the only one who has returned, and the rest of them are likely to have encountered accidents, you must know that they are ten martial artists, Rao is the Su family's great cause, and the loss of ten martial artists at once is also an immeasurable loss.

Guan Yu took a few gulps, sat on the ground, took a deep breath, and then said, "Xingyu, we're in big trouble." ”

"What's the big trouble?" Su Chen saw his depressed appearance, and felt more and more bad.

Guan Yu didn't sell Guan Zi either, and said directly: "If it weren't for the Longyuan Sword you gave me, I might not have been able to come back, you don't know, the ten brothers who followed me were all buried in the belly of that beast." ”

It turned out that Guan Yu took ten scouts yesterday and quietly touched into Danhan Mountain, the royal court of Danhan Mountain was very large, and he had the heart to investigate the location of Tanshi Huai's family, so he rashly entered a heavily guarded territory.

Seeing that this place was heavily guarded, he subconsciously thought that there was some noble person living here, maybe it was the family of Tanshi Huai, and in order to find out, he finally decided to go in and try it.

Those guards are all elite, but in front of him, they are not enough to see, he will solve the guards one by one, and go in along the path, but the more he walks, the more he feels wrong, he has the heart to return, but he still can't resist curiosity to go inside.

At the end of the road was a valley, and after passing through the hole, it suddenly became clear that there was nothing in the valley, and he was secretly wondering, not thinking that at this time a monster suddenly fell from the sky and bit his arm in one bite.

The scout next to him hurriedly stepped forward to rescue, who knew that at this time a few little monsters appeared, one by one, ten scouts were all wiped out, he pulled out the Longyuan sword, and slashed at it, the monster was afraid, so he let go.

When he fell to the ground, he saw several monsters in front of him clearly, these monsters were like giant tigers, but they had wings, if they were really speaking, they were tigers with wings.

Guan Yu took advantage of the powerful attack power of the Longyuan Sword to break out with a sword, and the sword qi slashed on the leg of the giant winged tiger, and only shocked the opponent back a few steps, but it was this sword that completely angered the giant winged tiger.

Those two huge wings were able to set off a violent wind, and Guan Yu finally stabilized his body, but he was grabbed by the tiger's claws, leaving three cuts on his shoulders.

He struggled, exhausted all his true qi, and then escaped from the claws of the winged tiger, and when he got out of the forbidden land, the outside was already surrounded by Xianbei soldiers, he grabbed a horse casually, and brandished the Longyuan sword all the way, those ordinary soldiers were not his opponents, and he was far behind.

When he saw the big camp, he finally lost his strength and passed out on horseback, and waited for Su Chen to feed him a few mouthfuls of water before he gradually came to his senses.

After listening to Guan Yu's story, Su Chen frowned and asked, "Senior Brother Yun, you have described that monster as a winged tiger with ribs and wings, and its claws are sharper than an eagle's grasp, such a strange beast doesn't seem to have been seen in the classics, why does the royal court have such a monster?" Aren't they afraid of these monsters? ”

Guan Yu had heard a little about the strange beast, and explained: "Xingyu, I have also seen strange beasts before, the initial strange beast was just a genius earth treasure, it has changed, and it has great power, but after the strange beast opens its spiritual wisdom, some different species of strange beasts mate with each other, so a more powerful foreign beast is born, I think this is how the winged tiger I met came about." ”

"I didn't expect that alien beasts could evolve through genetics, it's really incredible." Combined with Guan Yuyi's words, he also understood that since he had opened his spiritual wisdom, these strange beasts had spirituality, and it was possible to mate with each other, and it was not surprising that the strange beasts born from mating had two special abilities, father and mother.

According to Guan Yu's description, the giant winged tiger has six heads, two large ones, four small ones, the two big ones should be a female and a male, and these four small ones are cubs. A cub that is not yet an adult can easily solve a martial artist in the quenching realm, and the strength of this strange beast should not be too terrifying.

At present, the royal court is guarded by strange beasts, which has become a big mountain in front of them, if these strange beasts cannot be solved, then breaking through the royal court of Danhan Mountain is tantamount to a fool's dream, and more importantly, after experiencing the strange beast, he is a little more jealous of the royal court of Danhan Mountain, God knows what hole cards the other party has not been discovered.

Knowing oneself and knowing the other, a hundred battles will not be defeated, Su Chen ordered the whole army to retreat fifty miles back and camp, must not arouse the suspicion of the Xianbei people, now can only try his best to figure out the specific situation of the Danhan Mountain Royal Court.

Fortunately, there were enough looted materials along the way, and there was a water source nearby, so he didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, and he had time to deal with the other party, but thinking of the situation on Jiuyuan's side, he also had a little more urgency.

"Woo! Woo! Woo! ”

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

After one drum, then decline, and three exhaustions, the Xianbei army was assembled and finally began to attack the city.

For the Xianbei people, their means of siege were relatively simple, mainly relying on cavalry and archery. A group of Xianbei soldiers took the lead, rushing on both sides of the city gate, waiting for an opportunity to shoot the soldiers on the tower.

Another group of foot soldiers carried simple rushing carts straight to the city gate, although there were occasional casualties, but under the cover of dense arrows, it only took half an hour, and the rushing carts had reached the city gate.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

The city gate was almost immobile under the huge impact, this city gate has long been reinforced, and it is full of boulders, even if the city gate is smashed, the boulders can still block some attacks and buy time for subsequent reinforcements.

Gao Shun personally commanded the defense of the city on the north city tower, and as for Su Wei, he inspected the other three gates. Although there was no fighting there for the time being, there could be no slackening in the slightest, and the enemy would be caught by surprise when he could not keep it safe.

With the help of Guo Wen, Su Wei did not bother to obtain the support of the Jiuyuan County family, the Li family and the Guo family were willing to take out food and call on the people in the city to assist the officials and soldiers in defending the city, while the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce was to raise materials everywhere and be continuously transported to the city tower by the people.

Under the mobilization of the Guo family and the Su family, the people of the whole city were gathered in an orderly manner to contribute their strength to the defense of their homeland.

The Xianbei army attacked from morning to night, during which the army rotated every two hours, because of the large number of people and the outnumbered enemy, this crowd tactic was used by the enemy army to the fullest.

The Xianbei army attacked the city day and night, the Han army did not have any respite, and on the third day, it finally showed its decline, and the city gate was broken, fortunately Su Wei came in time with the cavalry, and fought with the Xianbei people in the urn city for a while, and the enemy finally chose to retreat after dropping thousands of corpses.

However, after this battle, the cavalry led by Su Yu has been saved in ten steps, and the original army of 50,000 is now only 10,000 people, all of whom are stationed at the North City Gate, and the other three gates have been replaced by private soldiers contributed by major families.

The Guo family guards the east gate, the Li family guards the west gate, the Su family and the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce guard the south gate, such a division of labor is according to their respective strengths, the Su family is from the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce's armed forces are mainly wolf riders, as soon as the wolf riders go, the Su family only has a family guard, and the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce is a private soldier contributed by the rest of the family.

Your family is hundred, my family is fifty, and finally there are enough 1,000 people to guard the easiest south gate.

At present, the war is anxious, the reinforcements have not arrived for a long time, Gao Shun is very worried, he called the generals above the commander to the city tower to discuss, and in the end he can only respond to all changes with the same, and pin his hope on the reinforcements who have not heard from him.

"Do you think Jiuyuan County can hold it tomorrow?" If the trapped camp is there, he still has the determination to fight, but the most elite trapped camp at the moment has been taken away by Su Chen, and in the face of tomorrow's siege, Gao Shun is really a little unconfident.

It is already the second half of the night, and the Xianbei people have temporarily retreated, just waiting for dawn to attract a large-scale attack, and the life and death of this battle will all be revealed tomorrow.

Su Wei didn't know if he could hold it, what should have been done had been done, the imperial army was delayed, and only 10,000 of the 50,000 soldiers from the county towns were transferred from the Wubu Governor's Mansion to 10,000 capable fighters, and among the remaining 40,000 casualties, after this battle, they could recover up to 5,000, and the rest were either dead or disabled, and there was no need to think about going to the battlefield in this life.

Such a large casualty, Rao is Su Wei has fought a lifetime and is also a little frightened, these days of tragic city defense is destroying his fighting spirit step by step, not even him, the enemy is destroying the fighting spirit of the Han Dynasty, once the city is broken, it will usher in the Xianbei army in the entire state of burning and looting, the result is bound to be ten rooms and nine empty, the consequences are unimaginable.

However, no matter what, they can't retreat, they are the first and last barrier.

He was about to answer, when suddenly a herald stepped forward and reported: "Two generals, reinforcements have arrived." ”

"Reinforcements? Where are the reinforcements? Su Wei said this as if he was asking the other party again, and as if he was asking himself, but after a while, he and Gao Shun glanced at each other, and asked in surprise: "You mean that General Duliao's army has arrived?" ”

"Yes, General Duliao and General Hun Zhonglang are waiting for the two generals in the Taishou Mansion."

"Lead the way!"

Gao Shun excitedly went down the city wall, and sighed as he walked: "This reinforcement is really timely rain!" ”

Only Su Yu, after the previous great joy, couldn't help but think: If the reinforcements came a few days earlier, there would not be so many soldiers killed, and they only came at this time, I don't know what medicine is sold in the gourd of this Liao general.

Don't blame him for thinking so, you must know that the strength of the Su family has been lost in the past few days, and after this battle, the Su family will definitely be greatly injured.
