Chapter 72: Suxia's Limited Sovereignty System (4)

The soldier who left first did not know what only the chief should know, and he did not want to inquire about it, and a few days after the news was delivered, the leader gave a strange order. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Many slaves in Sucheng were driven to cut down and burn all the trees within three miles outside the city, and dug canals outside the city walls, and the originally flat land outside the city was piled with many large stones, leaving only the roads around the city gates.

The outer gates were also fortified, and an outer city was erected to enclose the gates, and the walls near the gates began to pile up earth, making some places that seemed to stick out like dogs' teeth, as if to make it easier to attack possible enemies near the walls from the flanks.

Seemingly overnight, the city that had been impregnable for generations was already in danger, and the soldier looked at this change and thought with a grin: "If that city is like this, the gunpowder of the people of Xia Cheng will not blow the city gate so easily." These rocks blocked the advance of the shield carts, and the outstretched walls could attack them from the side, and the small city that surrounded the city gate would not directly attack the city even if it was blown open. However, the Dongyi people did not have gunpowder, so why did the leader build these things? ”

There was confusion in his heart, but it did not affect him to do what he should do, for six or seven days, the people of Sucheng watched the water canal pass through the stone paving, but they did not take this matter as the first thing to talk about on weekdays, because there was a more legendary and more praised thing.

"Ji Xia took more than a hundred people to capture a city!"

That city may not be as strong as Sucheng, and the people there may not be as brave as Sucheng, but it is a city after all, not a village surrounded by a wooden fence!

Many people in Sucheng have gone on expeditions with their leaders, and they have also besieged the city, and in the face of the threat of the city wall, everyone is helpless, and there is only one way to besiege it.

Because I have experienced it, I understand the legend of this news, and this matter is being discussed everywhere in the streets and alleys, fields and rivers, and there is a bit of reason in the surprise: there are many stories of the people of Xiacheng, and I have heard a lot, and now this kind of thing happens to the people of Xiacheng, although I am shocked, but it is not unacceptable.

The stories that Jian Jian told before, the plays he played, and the legends he told finally had the fruits of the harvest for the first time, and this matter was intertwined, making many things in Xia Cheng that they didn't agree with become doubts: Is it the people of Xia Cheng who are wrong? Or are you wrong? I used to hear that a hundred men had taken a city, and I would not believe it, but now it is right in front of me...... Perhaps, what the people of Xiacheng said that they thought were wrong were actually right?

Through this incident, many of the words that Jian Chen said and were regarded as jokes were remembered again, and they thought about and discussed this matter together, and finally someone asked if it was right, then why?

However, the people of Xia Cheng were still on their way back, and there was no one to give them answers.

Different from the excitement of the Chinese people, the leaders who came to Sucheng were a little vigilant after knowing about this, Su Yue seemed to be promoting Chen Jian's reputation, but in fact he was deliberately creating this kind of vigilant attitude.

The reason why they were invited was that the leader of the city had made a big mistake, and according to the usual practice, it was always necessary for the people of each city to consult, and then a few cities close to Awacheng sent troops to fight together, but this time they did not expect that the time would end so quickly from before they got the news.

With a deep sense of uneasiness, several leaders went to visit Suyue together, and after sitting down, someone couldn't wait to ask, "Chief Suyue, are those rumors true?" Did Ji Xia really take the city with only a hundred people? ”

Su Yue nodded and said, "It's true, it's definitely not a rumor, now they are on their way back." Ay...... I originally wanted Ji Xia to question that person, but I didn't want that person to kill his fellow clan and create a blood feud, in a vain attempt to settle on Ji Xia. You also know Ji Xia, where can you tolerate this, since the other party did not open the city gate to discuss, and shot Ji Xia with a bow, he had no choice but to blow up the city gate with gunpowder and rush in. I asked Tang to bring 200 warriors with him, but by the time they rushed to kill, Ji Xia had already captured the man alive. After entering the city, there was no crime in the autumn, and everyone in the city rejoiced infinitely, this is really the protection of the ancestors. ”

Several leaders glanced at each other, and there was a wave of shock in their hearts, a hundred people broke the city, could it be that the soldiers of Xia City were really brave to this extent?

Su Yue sighed and said, "When I knew this, I was no less surprised than you, and I didn't expect the Xiacheng clan to be so brave. Fortunately, Ji Xia respects his ancestors, and when he met the alliance last year, he was not the same as those people, and he was protected by his ancestors, and he was not a person from Yidi, otherwise...... Otherwise, we are afraid that we will not be able to preserve the resting place of our ancestors. ”

Looking around, these leaders who came first were all the cities near Sucheng that were affected by his control, and they were the basic core of this alliance, so they got up and asked people to leave, leaving only these leaders.

"I can trust Ji Xia, he respects his ancestors, keeps his promises, and does not hide his selfishness, his prestige is fair, even if Xia Cheng is brave, it is also the power of his relatives, no one will dislike his younger brother bravely, you don't have to be afraid."

"It's just that people are born, old, sick and die, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and what Ji Xia did to steal the way of heaven, I'm only afraid of ...... One day Ji Xia died of illness, if Xia Cheng elects an ambitious leader, even if Xia Cheng has few people and is far away, but you also know this battle, with gunpowder to blow up the city, it is no longer the time when it takes months to accumulate years to conquer a city, and when the time comes, I am afraid that our people will become slaves. ”

A few people still didn't understand what Su Yue meant, but the threat that Su Yue said became close after the rumors of the destruction of the city by a hundred people who were deliberately killed, although Ji Xia had an oath with everyone, but couldn't the oath be broken?

Su Yue had hesitated yesterday, whether to take this opportunity to tear his face with Chen Jian, even though the soldiers of Xia City were brave, but there were not many people near Onozawa, and the structure of Xia City was different from the rest of the cities, the clan that had just come out of the mountains would not be dispersed, and the people in power were Chen Jian's relatives, Chen Jian's power was overview, once he was killed, the entire Xia City would collapse.

But thinking of the various futures that Jian Chen laid out for him, he was reluctant, thinking that Jian Chen could really train the relatives and nobles of various cities without hiding privately, and teach the use of gunpowder, he would be able to do what Hua had never done back then, and his prestige should be as unshakeable as the sun and the moon, although Xia Cheng was strong, it was far away, and these feats were by no means something that Xia Cheng people could do.

To kill Jian Chen, you don't need gunpowder or military training skills, if you want to accomplish such a feat, I am afraid that it will take more than a hundred years, Su Yue knows that he will not live that long, so the kind of thought of killing the sprouts by breaking the net and killing the sprouts just flashed and disappeared in an instant.

But he couldn't help but take precautions, so this time he summoned his closest allies to say such a thing for this purpose.

When everyone was looking at him, Su Yue sighed: "The people of Xiacheng often say that if the lips are toothless, they will be cold, and they also say that if a seemingly solid house is dismantled, the wood, firewood, grass and mud are only the house when they are not disassembled, and they are only separated. ”

"Xia Cheng is like a dog, it can hunt and chase birds and beasts, but it can also devour people. Everything Ji Xia has done now, everyone respects it, but once Xia Cheng is no longer such a Xia City, betraying his ancestors and invading his relatives, even if they are brave, I also hope that you will fight together, otherwise the descendants will be slaves! ”

After speaking, he took out a bronze short sword given to him by Jian Chen, cut his finger and dripped the blood into the wine, and said loudly: "For the sake of the descendants not to be slaves, I ask you to swear that if Xia Cheng betrays his ancestors and invades his relatives, you will discuss it together!" ”

Su Yue's words hit their hearts, and they took off the swords that Chen Jian gave them and cut their fingers, dyed a piece of turbid wine red, divided the bowl and drank it, and said in unison: "Swear an oath, if Xia Cheng betrays it, all the cities will fight to destroy the city, do not escape or avoid, if there is a violation, heaven and earth will not tolerate it!"
