Xiao Zhan was cut open in the abdomen by a scimitar, and all his internal organs were cut off, if he wasn't a martial cultivator, I'm afraid he would have already swallowed his breath, and he wouldn't be able to hold on to it at all.

It's just that Liu Piaoyun is not a god, and there is no way to face such a serious injury.

Everyone gathered around, they looked at Xiao Zhan, who was already dying, and the other four people who had lost their breath, each of them showed sad looks, and some of them shed tears on the spot.

Xiao Ke couldn't cry for a long time: "Brother, don't die, I still have to go back to my hometown with you, and honor my father and mother together, you said it, don't you count, woo woo......"

Xiao Zhan and Xiao Ke were originally brothers, and in order to fight for the future, they came to join the army despite the opposition of their parents.

They have wandered on the edge of life and death countless times, and they have always been safe and sound, but they don't want to, this time they didn't hide from it!

Xiao Zhan showed a miserable smile, raised his arm, held Xiao Ke's hand and said, "Brother, brother... I'm afraid this time let... I'm sorry to disappoint you, don't be sad, this battle is... After that, you go home to accompany your parents, don't... Stop... Say I'm dead, say I'm stationed on the frontier, and I'll return for the time being... Can't go back, whew... I'm so tired, so painful, Hou... Master Hou, can... It allows me to sleep comfortably... Sleep?"

Looking at Xiao Zhan's pained and pleading gaze, Liu Piaoyun nodded silently, took out a golden needle, and pierced it deeply into his Baihui acupoint.

Xiao Zhan closed his eyes, and his breathing gradually became weak, until finally, it disappeared completely.

"Brother...... Woohoo......"

It's hard to imagine that a martial arts powerhouse would cry like a child, but no one present laughed at him, and everyone could understand his feelings.

Seeing his loved ones die by his side, everyone's hearts are extremely sad!

If you haven't experienced war, you don't know the cruelty of war!

So far, their team has lost a total of six people, eight people are seriously injured, and they are temporarily unable to move vigorously, and only twenty-six people are left who can fight, and everyone's mood is very low.

For some unknown reason, the barbarian side did not launch another surprise attack until dawn.

However, they have been completely trapped and killed in Nuhe City, and they can't break out of the siege, because the enemy is equipped with crossbows, and escaping on the wild grassland is equivalent to sending them to death!

So, unless reinforcements arrived, they would have to resign themselves to their fate.

What was surprising was that not long after dawn, the barbarians who had camped half a mile away actually sent a warrior to ride the steppe wolf and run to the front of the city.

He didn't carry any weapons, and he raised his hands in the air, indicating that there was no hostility, which was quite surprising!

The barbarian warrior shouted loudly towards the top of the city wall: "Listen, people inside, as long as you hand over the person who holds the purple dragon sword in his hand, the greatest leader of our barbarian clan, Lord Jin Wuling."

Agree to let the rest of you out safely!"

"Purple Dragon Sword?"

Everyone looked at each other, not understanding what he meant.

"Phew!"

Zhou Fatzi spat disdainfully, and said hatefully: "What tricks do these barbarian dogs want to play?"

Both sides have killed each other to the death, and everyone has left without any hope of living.

Now that I heard about the Purple Dragon Sword, I naturally thought it was a conspiracy of the barbarians.

Only General Lu and Du Yuqiang understood!

As a general, General Lu naturally knows what Du Yuqiang is holding in his hand and what it represents, this sword is in the imperial court, and there are few people who don't know it!

And Du Yuqiang has never mentioned it to others, so of course Liu Piaoyun and the others don't know what this barbarian is talking about!

"Whoosh!"

The next moment, a feathered arrow shot down like lightning and pierced his throat!

It was General Lu who shot this barbarian warrior.

What General Lu used was the bow and arrow that Xiao Zhan was holding just now, this strong man who was immediately promoted to a high-level martial maniac, and his archery skills were also exquisite.

The enemy obviously recognized this sword, and he must have guessed that the owner of this sword must be the Nine Emperors, the most favored by the current emperor.

They want to use Du Yuqiang to blackmail the emperor, and get greater benefits without spending a single soldier, how can he let them get their wish!

Under the gaze of everyone's astonished eyes, General Lu said coldly: "Negotiating with the barbarians is to seek skin with the tiger, no matter what they want, they can't change the situation of the battle!"

The look on his face was extremely determined, and he continued: "If you want to live, you can only fight to the end!"

"Bang!"

The barbarian warrior who was hit by the arrow in his throat fell from the wolf's back and fell to the ground weakly, causing dust to fly on the ground.

As an envoy who came to negotiate, he probably never dreamed that the other party would shoot him.

As the saying goes, if the two countries are at war and don't kill them, how could the people of the Qianwu Dynasty do such a thing without faith?

Therefore, this barbarian warrior still had his eyes open when he died, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

He probably forgot that the barbarians had never spoken of any faith and rules to their enemies, and that they had done many treacherous things for thousands of years.

General Lu shot him to death, not only to express his determination and courage to fight to the death, but also to clearly tell the barbarians that this kind of trick was useless to him.

General Lu put down the bow and arrow in his hand, looked at the others who were surprised behind him, and said lightly: "Never believe the words of the barbarians and demons, their oath is worthless, their promises are used to break them, even if we agree to their conditions, they will not let us go!"

The reason why General Lu explained so much was because he was afraid that everyone would have a pimple in their hearts, after all, some of them still haven't

I know that there is a current prince hidden in this.

And those who know have not mentioned a word, the rules of keeping secrets, as soldiers of the imperial court, have been severely explained after enlisting in the army, and no one dares to violate the rules of the army!

Moreover, many people have never dealt with barbarians before, and they don't know how despicable and shameless the other party is.

If it was one of his soldiers, then he didn't need to explain it at all.

"Let's retreat to the Beacon Tower, how long can we hold out!"

General Lu said helplessly.

The reason why the city gate and city wall were abandoned was very simple, and the barbarians were completely enraged by what they did just now!

"Woo ......"

With the sound of the trumpet, hundreds of wolf riders rushed towards the city gate like a tidal wave.

When they found that the messenger they sent was shot in an instant, their hearts were filled with anger to the extreme, and all the barbarian warriors were staring blood-red, roaring loudly, and constantly waving their weapons in their hands.
