Chapter Twenty-Six: The Verge

Xiaoyao City is located at the intersection of three continents and five seas, and has been accessible in all directions since ancient times, but the strange thing is that although it has convenient transportation, it has become a natural natural hazard.

The seawater here has been successfully introduced, not only as a moat, but also can be used by the local people to develop water conservancy, such as this season after season of rice, although it is now in the harvest season, but because of the war, many fields have been affected, damaging hundreds of acres of fertile land outside the city. However, fortunately, most of the people in the city are mainly fishing, so even if there is a war, it has not been greatly affected.

In today's form, they don't have to worry about the grain and grass, not to mention that the court does not dare to cut off their food, even if there is an accident in the sky, their food will not be broken.

Because the water in this city comes from all over the world, they don't have to worry that the people of Nanyi will drug the water, after all, the water transportation here is too developed, and they are not stupid.

There had been a battle on the battlefield before, with countless casualties, and because there were so many dead, they decided to bury them on the spot.

However, Yan Yu felt that this was a good opportunity, the left and right were the battlefield, and the next time Nanyi attacked the city, he still had to pass through here, why not ...... Leave them a memory?

So, Yan Yu sent people to "repair the plank road in the open and Chen Cang in the dark". Under the banner of burying the body, it is actually digging a trap. When her people came back and said that they had 'buried' the soldiers, she pursed her lips and smiled, laughing extremely eeriely.

Because she knew that what awaited Nanyi's army would be a large area of traps.

When the Nanyi army was about to arrive in front of the city, what they saw was not the Yongchang soldiers who were frightened by their Xiao Zhanshen, but the regular elite soldiers who had withdrawn into the city in an orderly manner.

Xiao Zhan narrowed his eyes, and across a moat, he could vaguely see that the guards over there were tall and handsome, with a strict face.

Could it be him? This person is a little different from his imaginary 'opponent'. Thinking of the number of people lost in the trap along the way, Xiao Zhan's eyes were cold, and his whole person was not good, but in an instant, he showed a smile of Corporal Lixian, beckoning a guest to let him go.

The ancients said: The law of the husband uses the army, the whole country is the first, and the country is second; The whole army is the first, and the broken army is second; The whole brigade is the first, and the broken brigade is second; The whole pawn is the first, and the broken pawn is second; The whole army is the first, and the army is second. Therefore, a hundred battles are won, and the good ones who are not good, the soldiers who surrender without a fight, and the good ones who are good.

Therefore, the army is attacked, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the next is to attack the city. The method of siege is a last resort. Repair the oar, with equipment, three months and then become, distance from the trench, and then three months and then be. The one who will be overwhelmed by the anger and the ants will possess it, and the one who kills one-third of the soldiers and the city will not be pulled out, and this attack will also be a disaster.

As a general, how can you not cherish your soldiers? If Yongchang was interested, he would be willing to forgive them for shooting an ambush on Nanyi these days.

Yan Yu naturally saw the persuader, but! He wants to be "a soldier who surrenders without a fight"? It also depends on whether the arrow in her hand agrees.

Above the city wall was Jiang Feng, who she had told him that he was responsible for attracting firepower and attracting Xiao Zhan's attention, while she was responsible for releasing the dark arrows.

Shooting arrows with a bow, she slowly pulled out the huge and heavy bow in her hand, and the arrow was aimed at the Nanyi God of War under the city......

Xiao Zhan had been through a hundred battles and succeeded in dodging the dark arrows flying towards him without accident, but the banner behind him was broken! She directly shot the pole of the battle flag, and the battle flag fell in response.

Who is Yan Yu, and how could he not know that Xiao Zhan can successfully dodge? Her purpose has always been nothing more than a battle flag. This act is just a knock on the mountain!

Xiao Zhan paused slightly, and then saw that the guards on the city wall also shot arrows with bows, this arrow was aimed at him, but the person who shot the dark arrow just now was not him! He was sure. The man who shot the arrow was missing, and her arrow was only a warning.

The deck on the moat had long been closed, the water had been raised a little, the gates were closed, and the three steps on the city wall were a trebuchet, five steps and a fire platform, and the soldiers were each armed with a bow and arrow, and everything had already been ready to be restarted.

Now that she is ready, she is not polite. She glanced at Jiang Feng and confirmed her eyes, it seemed that she was a person who played with her life.

The soldiers waited for the general to give an order, the bows and arrows had already been fired at the same time, the burning fireballs were thrown one after another, and the huge flints were smashed from top to bottom, towards the city, and in desperation, Xiao Zhan could only dodge the fireballs in embarrassment, and retreated dozens of steps in front of many subordinates.

He wanted to know who the archery was, and if it was the one who was plotting against him. However, it seems that there is no such opportunity at the moment, and in the face of a strong attack, he is too busy to take care of himself, let alone want to see the person who plots against him.

Now it can be said that the soldiers are coming to the city, and they have to send it! Because of the start of the trebuchet, the huge flint rolled down, most of the ladders of Nanyi's siege were broken, and even if the Nanyi soldiers dodged the hidden arrows, they would be stoned to death or burned, and those who were lucky would also fall into disability, and those who were unlucky would be crushed on the spot.

As a general, how can there be a reason not to cherish soldiers? Xiao Zhan looked at those subordinates who had followed him for many years in the past, and watched them fall one by one.

Xiao Zhan's face was pale, his scarlet eyes looked at the blurred figure on the city wall, and his eyes became gloomy and terrifying, who is this person? He had never heard that there was such a number one person in Yongchang Kingdom.

When he wanted to look at her on the city wall again, a cold arrow flew towards his façade, and he barely managed to dodge the fatal arrow! The arrow grazed his cheek. However, the generals behind him are not so good, it is a poisonous arrow, even if he doesn't die, it will be enough for him.

Yan Yu squinted her eyes, the arrow had to be sent on the string, and without hesitation, she shot an arrow at Xiao Zhan, about her bad luck, as soon as she shot this arrow, she felt a pain in her shoulder, she was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and the arrow flew past his cheek, killing the entourage behind him.

Xiaoyao City has been defended for many years, and the generals who have defended the city have understood a truth, that is, Xiaoyao City is an extremely important barrier for Yongchang, as long as 'Xiaoyao City is not broken for a day, Yongchang will not die for a day'.

There is a more important reason why Yan Yu insisted on defending the city, that is, the death of her father back then. Everyone in the world said that she was full of loyalty, and she did not hesitate to protect the river and the mountains.

As for the cause of her father's death, she always felt that it was not so simple. However, for a general, it is not a good thing to be able to sleep here, but it is a pity that there are no bones of Yan's father.
