When Meng Huan Chilong took his soldiers from the Lei Chamber of Commerce and drove out a few large carts, the carts were already loaded with twelve strong crossbows, five Dingcheng strong crossbows, and countless crossbow spears.

When they walked on the avenue of Yitian City, the sun had already risen to the clear blue sky, sprinkling a warm sunlight on the earth, making everything on the earth look full of vitality under the caress of the spring breeze.

But because of the arrival of the war, the city of Yitian seemed very depressed, and there were few pedestrians on the streets, only a few people stood on the street corners, gathered together and whispered, thinking that they had a common theme, that is, war.

When they see them walking by, those people will look up at them with a glimmer of hope in their eyes. They saw the scene of trying the strong crossbow last night, and the strong crossbow brought them a lot of impact, and it also gave them the confidence to win.

When the group walked through the avenue and arrived at the city wall, it was already half past in the morning, and it was already midday. Because Raimu is also going to come over to take a look, he is a little slower to act.

According to Meng Huan Chilong's guess, if the Duanzheng Dynasty had reinforcements, it might attack the city in one go today.

After he commanded the people to carry the strong crossbows on the city wall, he asked people to put five fixed city crossbows in the raised piers on both sides of the city tower, which is also commonly known as the arrow tower of the horse face, to prevent the other party from attacking the city gate, and then it can be suppressed.

The twelve wind crossbows were concentrated in front of the tower, so that they could be transferred there if needed. Naturally, those crossbow spears were also stacked in front of the tower, so that the soldiers could easily extract them.

When I tried the crossbow yesterday, many soldiers didn't see it, but they heard about the power of the crossbow. Therefore, as soon as the strong crossbow went up to the city wall, many soldiers ran to join in the fun. Meng Winding Red Dragon took the opportunity to call the assembled craftsmen and teach the soldiers how to use it, because this thing will be a common weapon for defending the city, and it is best for the soldiers to use it for everyone.

When he was busy with his people, he heard Long Qifeng shouting in front of the city tower: "Menghuan Red Dragon, come here!"

Looking up, I saw Long Qifeng and Teng Xinzun, as well as several captains standing in front of the city tower. He trotted all the way over and saluted, "Lord City Guard, Lord Join the Army, what is the matter?"

"Look at the frame, the people of the upright dynasty want to do it! But they haven't received reinforcements, how dare they do it? I don't understand. Long Qifeng didn't look at him, but looked outside the city and said to himself.

He also looked outside the city, and found that more than 10,000 soldiers of the upright dynasty outside the city were actually assembled, forming ten phalanxes according to 1,000 people, and lining up in columns, as if they were about to attack. Although the open space outside the city is large enough to accommodate up to 50,000 people, the more than 10,000 people lined up in the middle of the square look a bit imposing.

"Is there any news from our scouts?" he asked, somewhat confused.

Teng Xinzun was also a little puzzled, but still replied: "No, since last night, there has been no news from the ten scouts sent out. However, even if there are soldiers of the upright dynasty nearby, these people should wait for reinforcements to come and attack the city, and at least prepare enough siege equipment! Then there are more than 10,000 people who dare to attack the city? Is their leader brainless?"

He heard that there was no news from the scouts, thought for a while, and said, "It's bad, I'm afraid that our scouts are gone, and our monitoring of news outside the city may be broken." ”

Long Qifeng glanced at him, frowned, and said, "No, those scouts are trained, they have a strong ability to survive in the mountains and forests, and they are scattered, even if they die, someone should release the news, there will be no news at all!"

"I'm not saying that the scouts were killed, because the scouts are familiar with the mountains and forests, it is not easy to kill them one by one. I suspect that the people of the upright dynasty know that the tongue-learning bird who delivered the news should prevent the tongue-learning bird from flying back, and if this is not the case, they should release a bird to report safety. ”

Long Qifeng and Teng Xinzun didn't say anything for a while, they knew that the ten scouts had two tongue birds, and they relied on the tongue birds to report information. If you meet someone with a heart and release a few eagles or eagles, I am afraid that none of the birds will fly back, so there is naturally no news.

Teng Xinzun was bored for a while, and said with some irritation: "Whether there is news or not, I don't understand, what do these righteous dynasty people want to do now?

Meng Huan Chilong looked carefully outside the city for a while, and he was a little puzzled.

"I can't see what these people are trying to do, but I know that the Shura named Singh is very arrogant and crazy. When he was surrounded by the cottage, he dared to attack the gate of the village alone, maybe he came up with some ghost ideas, I can't guess a little. ”

At this time, Long Qishui brought people to send a batch of wooden shields, and was arranging for people to send them down, so the city wall was very lively, and only the sound of soldiers running around was heard.

Long Qifeng walked a few steps to the battlement, and said with some hesitation: "It is definitely impossible for more than 10,000 people to attack the city, so what are they gathered for? What kind of tricks do they want to play?"

Teng Xinzun's voice became thicker, and he waved his hand, and said, "No matter what they do, just beat them, no matter how many people have ghost ideas, they can't beat Yitian City?"

Long Qifeng glanced at him and shook his head. "They are all real soldiers, and they know that there is no point in besieging a city. Now that they have moved, there must be an attempt, so what are their intentions, if they don't know, I'm afraid we will be passive. If something unexpected happens, I'm afraid we won't have the means to deal with it. ”

Meng Huan Chilong felt that Long Qifeng was reasonable, and although Na Singh was arrogant, he was afraid of death. When people who are afraid of death do things, they will plan carefully to ensure their lives. So they must have their own reasons for doing what they are doing now, so what could it be?

While he was still thinking about it, the soldiers of the Duan Zheng Dynasty had already assembled, and the formation slowly moved towards Yitian City. Those spears held high looked like a forest of spears from a distance, and it seemed that at the first order, the spears would rise into the sky and fly towards the Heavenly City.

Looking at the moving soldiers, he hurriedly said: "Look at the frame, they really want to attack the city? There must be a plan in this, but I can't guess." Let's get ready and recruit soldiers to go up the walls. ”

Long Qifeng stood by the battlement, looked out, and said in a deep voice: "Teng joins the army, whether they attack the city or not, tell the soldiers to prepare, if they move, we must suppress them fiercely and give them a ruthless blow." ”

Teng Xinzun said a few words to a few captains, and the captains dispersed, and soon the soldiers on standby under the city rushed up.

The soldiers passed through the passage and went up to the city wall, where they were lined up at a certain distance. The men in the front row were shielded, and behind them were spearmen and archers, among whom were some pikemen.

The appearance of these soldiers gave a solemn atmosphere on the city wall, and it seemed that a great war was about to break out.

Meng Huan Chilong didn't believe that the people of the upright dynasty would have enough to eat and have nothing to do, so they lined up in front of the city wall to show off their might. I don't believe that they will use 10,000 people to attack a city, you must know that these people have used nearly 10,000 people to attack the fortress.

He was sure that the upright dynasty people had tricks, but he couldn't figure it out for a while. There was no news outside the city, so he could only speculate wildly, which made him more cautious. Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles, and now that we know nothing about the enemy's actions, this battle will be very difficult to fight.

Looking at the soldiers of the upright dynasty who were slowly approaching, he frowned, thought slowly, and suddenly remembered what Singh said yesterday, and was shocked.

"I see, their purpose is not to attack the city, but to threaten us to do something else. ”

"What do you mean?" Long Qifeng asked.

"When Singh left yesterday, he said that he would let us see how his people died. From this, they have our people in their hands, and he wants to threaten us with these people, but what he wants to do, I can't think of it, is it to threaten us to open the city gates?"

When several military officers heard this, they didn't speak, but just looked at the upright dynasty soldiers who came over, as if they wanted to see if there were any Wu people in the phalanx. They understood a truth, that is, relying on the threat of the clansmen, it was impossible for them to give up Yitian City, as long as the people of the Zhengzheng Dynasty were allowed to come in, more people would die.

They also don't want to see their clansmen die in vain, so they prefer to believe that Meng Winding Red Dragon guessed wrong.

At the forefront of the Duanzheng Dynasty, there was a row of tall Asura people, holding shields more than one person high, covering the figures of the soldiers behind them, so they only saw a row of black pressed figures pressing over, and did not see the figure of the Wu people.

But a shrill voice shattered that dream. "Behold, there are our people, and they are in their ranks. ”

"Where?" someone asked.

"Behind the shield, there seem to be quite a few people, the entire front row of the phalanx. ”

"I saw them too, and they were all bound. ”

Hearing these words, Meng Huan Chilong also looked closely at those phalanxes, and found that the entire queue of people from the upright dynasty who came over did look like there were more than 10,000 people, how could there be 15,000 or 6,000 people.

Through the gap in the shield, he did see the shadow of the witch, and he was dressed as a man from the mountains and forests, because he saw the animal skin clothes.

Teng Xinzun suddenly roared: "It's too despicable for the people of the upright dynasty to use such a trick. Lord City Guard, we have to protect these people, they only have more than 10,000 people, and it just so happens that the side gate is not sealed, so we rush out and fight with them, and try to save our people. ”

Long Qifeng said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, let's see what means they have first?" It's really not possible to do what you said, but you have to plan, don't break the city, then we are the most incompetent people." ”

Teng Xinzun also calmed down, called a few captains, and arranged some things, because now it is not only about defending the city, but also about finding a way to go out of the city to save people, and some things must be arranged in advance.

Long Qifeng looked even more gloomy, standing motionless in front of the city tower, looking at the soldiers of the upright dynasty who were slowly approaching outside the city, as if he was thinking about something.

But the people of the upright dynasty did not stop their steps because of his gaze. Those upright dynasty soldiers, lined up, marched forward without hurry, approaching the city wall little by little, their footsteps were heavy, bringing pressure to the soldiers on the city wall.

A few spirit witches who had invited to help had just walked up to the city tower and greeted Long Qifeng, but it could be seen that the city guards did not react, just staring at the outside of the city.

The spirit witches didn't know what was going on, and when they saw the soldiers of the upright dynasty approaching in the distance, they knew that the battle was about to start, and they followed Lei Mu to quickly gather in front of the steps of the city tower, because the talisman plate that manipulated the "Five Yuan Sword Array" was in the city tower.
