Chapter 260: The situation is not good

Wu Rang, the guard of Blackwater City, did not meet them at the first time, but waited until the evening to come in a hurry.

The armor on his body was still off, his face was scruffed, and his face was full of wind and frost.

"Childe, my subordinates are late, I hope you will forgive me."

Wu Rang's brows furrowed, obviously not in a good mood, and he didn't recognize him at the first time.

"General Wu, I'm sorry, Gongzi didn't come over because of something, and his subordinates accompanied Miss Su over."

Saying this, Wu Rang was taken aback, and after a closer look, he suddenly realized.

"Childe, is this a trick to get out of the shell of the golden cicada?"

"Yes, he has his own business to do, and he can't be caught up in it."

Su Fu smiled faintly.

"Yes, Gongzi is a person who does big things, and small things like transporting grain and grass are purely used by His Majesty to contain him."

Although Wu Rang looks rough, he is thick and fine, and his comprehension is extremely high.

As for what Lin Yan was busy with, Su Fu didn't say, and he was smart not to ask.

"Miss Su has worked hard all the way, and I heard that there was a rare black storm on the road."

He didn't say this politely, but he really felt so, after all, Su Fu was a weak woman with no martial arts, and it was indeed a little incredible to be able to walk through the Hanhai Desert.

"The road is indeed a little difficult, but fortunately it is not dishonorable in its mission."

Su Fu said politely, then turned the conversation and asked about the situation here, "How is the situation here?" ”

Wu Rang shook his head, "It's not good, the enemy is outnumbered, and I was caught off guard and missed the opportunity, now I am almost passive everywhere, if there are no reinforcements, I am afraid I will not be able to hold for a few days." ”

Blackwater City is the gateway to the northern frontier, and if it falls, it will pose a great threat to the entire north.

In the future, even if the situation improves, it will be very difficult to carry out a counteroffensive.

Reinforcements are impossible, even if they are immediately transferred from the nearest place now, it will take seven or eight days on the road, and it will be too late.

"If we stay and help, how many more days will we be able to hold on?"

Luo Tianjiao's men and horses and Hu Chengda combined, plus dozens of guards, there were more than 500 people.

This amount is not too much, it is a lot less, it must be a drop in the bucket to conquer the city, but it is a team of living forces to defend a steep city.

What's more, they are all elite divisions that are one in a hundred, and if they are used well, they may even have a surprising effect.

"One more day? Two days, two days at most. ”

In Wu Rang's opinion, such four or five hundred people can play a key role, but he can't dismantle her platform no matter what.

I can only grit my teeth and say a little more time, anyway, it's not a military order, and no one will be held accountable if I say something wrong.

"Immediately let Hu Chengda come over to help, I don't know if General Wu thinks it's too late?"

Su Fu really doesn't understand military affairs, so he humbly asks for advice.

"Will he disobey military orders?"

Wu Rang couldn't believe it, sending troops without permission was a felony to kill the head, although both of them were subordinates of the eldest princess, they didn't dare to send troops privately. For the Honored Academy

"I can forge a military document first, and let them send troops in advance."

Su Fu said very lightly, as if everything was under control, and Wu Rang had heard a little about her fame.

Knowing that she is a capable person, since she dares to speak outrageously, she is naturally confident.

"Oh, listening to Miss Su, you should be sure."

"That's natural, I'll do the paperwork, if the flying pigeon passes the book, it should arrive soon, and it is estimated that they will be able to set off tomorrow."

"That's very good, then the general will represent the 20,000 soldiers of Blackwater City, thank you Miss Su."

As she spoke, she clasped her fists and saluted, and Su Fu didn't avoid it, which she deserved.

In fact, she had already thought of the feasibility of this matter along the way, and had already made a lot of preparations in advance.

Several messengers were sent back to report the news, and as for the military documents she said, she had already prepared them, so she almost filled in the contents.

"General Wu, can I go to the city tower to have a look?"

She had some vague ideas in her heart, but she had to figure out the number, equipment, and combat power of the Wei army before she could make corresponding adjustments.

"This ...... Miss Su, it's very dangerous upstairs in the city, and it's a big night, do you think you can go again tomorrow morning? ”

Wu Rang was very embarrassed, after all, if something happened to Su Fu, how could he explain to Lin Yan.

Su Fu thought about it, and understood what he meant in his heart, for the sake of the war, he was so busy and exhausted, he still didn't make trouble for him.

If you really want to see it, she has a lot of methods, and there is no need to alarm anyone.

After making up her mind, Sov never mentioned the matter, but casually asked for some details about the city, and then left.

Wu Rang didn't care, she had her own manpower to protect, and she didn't need him to worry about it, and now that she heard that there would be reinforcements soon, she packed up her gloomy and desperate mood, and started the defense arrangement again in good spirits.

Over there, Su Fu said goodbye, originally planned to go back to the post house directly, but after thinking about it, she decided to go to the city wall first.

In any case, she couldn't make a good judgment based on hearsay alone.

In order to facilitate her movement on the road, she was originally a woman pretending to be a man, and no one would suspect her if she went directly to the city tower at this time.

At night, Blackwater City imposed a curfew, and the streets were almost empty, although it was in the stage of temporary rest at this time, the city tower still did not dare to relax its vigilance, almost three steps and one sentry, five steps and one post, closely monitoring the movements under the city.

Su Fu had a warrant given by Wu Rangcai in her hand, so she didn't have to worry about the problem of checking, and she had encountered at least seven or eight checks along the way.

The army of Blackwater City, under the leadership of Wu Rang, had strict military discipline, and although it was extremely difficult to defend, everything was in order.

This made Su Fu awe-inspired, obviously in danger, but they were still unyielding, and although their morale was not particularly high, they were still passable.

The walls of Blackwater City are made of local materials, built with stones on the mountain, which is very strong, and even the city gate is made of a hundred years old cedar wood on the mountain, and the copper skin is wrapped in the outside, which is not easy to break.

Sov looked at it for a moment, and then walked over to the stomp of the wall, where the stones were a strange reddish-black and fishy smell.

Although she had not faced a major war, she immediately reacted that it was all infested with thick bloodstains.

I can't help but feel sorry in my heart, the war in the era of cold weapons is so cruel that it is outrageous.

Looking down from the high city walls, less than nine hundred meters beyond the moat, there are dense tents, covering the entire hill on the opposite side, stretching for several miles.

Inside, it was brightly lit, with countless horses and figures coming and going.

Su Fu gasped, and roughly estimated, I am afraid that there are more than seventy or eighty thousand people, no wonder Wu Ranghui is so unconfident, saying that he will not be able to hold on for a few days.
