The events of the previous life finally happened, but Li Minglou has not received the news yet.

The scouts outside Dou County used the beacon fire to convey how many soldiers and horses were attacking the city, and from which direction, but they could not convey what happened in the capital.

The water outside Dou County is surrounded by impassable.

The winter morning was cold, but it was also the most sleepy time, a young soldier lying on the city wall held a bow and crossbow with heavy eyelids, but there was a terrible scream behind him, which made him shiver and drowsy, he turned his head and looked at the brightly lit place under the city gate, compared to the silence on the city wall, there were people coming and going, crying and shouting.

That's where the wounded soldiers were first treated.

In the middle of the night there was a battle, and the outer walls had been abandoned, and everyone retreated to the big walls, which were tall and thick, but there were still people wounded in the arrows.

"It's good to scream, it proves that you still have spirit." The people next to him comforted.

The previous Min Zhuang also nodded: "Yes, I saw the rescue yesterday, Mrs. Wu's doctor is very powerful, the arrow is so deep, he clicked and cut, poofed and pulled, squeaked two knives to cut off the rotten meat, sprinkled medicine and wrapped in cloth, poured a bowl of medicine, and that person came back to life." ”

He gestured as he spoke.

The man next to him covered his arms and trembled: "Ah, don't say it, I hurt what you said." ”

The two laughed, dispelling the chill and fear.

Seeing the excitement they said, someone came over again: "Do you think those outside are really chaotic soldiers?" ”

On that day, after repelling more than 100 soldiers and horses who came to call the door, there were a lot of people who came overwhelmingly, shouting that there were thieves attacking them, there were many people and shields, and the bows and crossbows were also powerful, and the outer wall could not be stopped, and everyone retreated to the big city wall, and resisted the siege according to the big city wall.

These soldiers and horses did not disperse, but came to the city gate to shout and curse, rebel, be thieves, obediently go out of the city to die, and so on.

Many people on the city gate were a little dazed when they heard this, are these people really not chaotic soldiers? This kind of thought exists in the hearts of many people, but now with a bow and crossbow in hand, they can't help but listen to the order, and the training in the previous military camp seems to have become instinctive.

"It's not a rebel, why don't they dare to enter the city?" Someone immediately retorted.

Yes, when these soldiers and horses were shouting and scolding, the generals of the city wall actually opened the city gate directly, saying that if they were not rebels, then they would enter the city, and they would not be hindered if they entered.

As a result, those soldiers and horses refused to enter, and only let the officials in the city and Mrs. Wu Shao go out of the city.

"Maybe they suspect that we are rebels, and they are scared." Someone laughed, although now is not the time to laugh, and there is nothing funny about this matter, but seeing those black-pressed soldiers and horses facing the wide open city gate and not daring to come in, I really want to laugh.

So many people are afraid of them, and some of them are afraid of him, and some of them are still officers and soldiers who are afraid of him.

Footsteps came from behind, accompanied by the sound of talking.

"Is the doctor enough?" It's a female voice.

"The doctors in the city have opened their doors to treat the wounded." A male voice replied immediately.

"We have enough medicine for our wounds." Another male voice.

It was Mrs. Wu who came, and several people hurriedly stopped talking, bowed their heads and stood in front of their positions, they didn't look back, and felt a group of people walking behind them, bringing not a cold wind but warmth.

Mrs. Wu Shao will come to the city wall every day, she also came after the battle last night, someone heard that General Yuan persuaded her to go to the county government to wait, the danger here is unpredictable, Mrs. Wu just smiled.

"That's not how I died." "I'll just stand here and see if God dares me to die like this," she said, looking at the arrows flying from outside the city with fire. ”

It sounds weird, but it sounds like it's powerful.

Li Minglou stood at the highest point of the city wall and stopped, the morning light gradually brightened, and he could see the wilderness in the distance, and the wilderness in winter was hideous with traces of battle.

"Lord Yu has already calculated and announced everyone's ration quota, and the people have accepted it, and many people have even added water to the porridge they have brought back twice to drink." Motoyoshi Road.

Lord Yu is the little official who can count in the county government, and his surname is Yu Yuqian, which is a name that is very suitable for his identity.

Now Yu Qian has taken over all the material allocation, it is said that on the first day, he was frightened by the huge amount of money and hid in the warehouse and cried, but the people who came to ask for various materials still got what they wanted in time, and the rest of the money was hard Yuan Ji didn't pay attention to it anymore, he unloaded a mountain and concentrated on the battle.

Li Minglou said: "Tell everyone not to do this, they are all full, and they don't have the strength to defend the city." ”

Yuan Ji responded, and there was immediately a guard next to him who wrote down the matter and conveyed it to the specific supervisor.

"There is no problem in defending the city, they come with light soldiers and horses, and there are no siege equipment." Yuan Ji said, "I don't know if Huainan Province will send troops." ”

The scouts who stayed outside would naturally spread the news of the siege of Dou County, and would also report to Gwangju and Huainan Province.

"After the fight, I should send troops to take a look." Li Ming said.

Motoyoshi smiled, and it was also interesting for the young lady to say witty things.

Li Minglou didn't smile, looking at the morning light in front of him, his voice became a little sharp: "Ankang Mountain father and son, it turned out that they were like this from the beginning. ”

What the? Yuan Ji looked at it with a condensed expression.

The soldiers and horses that retreated last night came again, but this time it was not the raging soldiers and horses walking in front, but a group of crying men, women and children.

Wailing and shouting echoed outside the city.

The faces of the people on the city wall became ugly, and many people's hands holding bows and crossbows were trembling.

Dou County is not only a county seat, there are many villages, and although repeated warnings and orders, it is still impossible to protect all the people in the city.

These soldiers and horses actually captured the people.

"Come out and be surrendered!"

"Otherwise, kill these people!"

"If you are not a rebel, come out to the aid of the people."

A shout of scolding was heard, mixed with the cries of the people.

These people were tied with ropes like cattle and sheep, and some of them were brought down when they walked slowly, and they were immediately beaten with whips and spears, and many of them were bruised, and they stopped and fell to their knees in front of the outer wall.

The people who were in turmoil on the city wall became silent.

"Dou County officials and people." A general came out and shouted in a deep voice, "All the people who make trouble up and down are thieves and can be killed." ”

When his voice fell, he raised his hand and stabbed it.

An old man kneeling in front of him fell to the ground with a scream.

The people on both sides were frightened and screamed or tried to flee or fainted, and the people on the city wall screamed in surprise, and many people stood up.

"If you don't go out of the city to confess your sins, that's how it will end." The general shouted, raising the knife in his hand again.

A sharp sound of breaking the air came, the general officer was extraordinary, the knife was horizontal, with a bang, the arrow hit the handle and broke, the horse neighed and took a few steps back, the general was numb and his face changed a few times, he deliberately stopped on the side of the outer wall, just to avoid the range, so far away he almost shot through him, and the soldiers on both sides raised their shields to surround him.

The black umbrella in Fang Shuang's hand had already reached Li Minglou's hand, and he was holding a heavy bow in his hand.

Li Minglou looked ahead: "Get out of the city and kill the thief." ”
