Chapter 184: It's hard to return home

Early morning.

Herenta looked at the two thousand men behind him, his face was extremely gloomy, it had been five days since he last gave the order, but the soldiers who finally arrived in the valley were not half of what he had requested.

"General, the battle situation is very anxious now, the territory at the second passage has changed hands several times, our casualties are very heavy, and there are no extra people from there. The col of the third passage is too steep, because we have to transport the horses over, and we have lost nearly a thousand men in front and back, and no one of the soldiers dares to pass through it! ”

", this is a war, how can it not be dead! Don't you understand the military order, or do you think I won't dare to kill you?! ”

"National teacher, that's not just the reason. Mainly... It was the Khan's order, and he said that a warrior should die honorably on the battlefield and not die here in obscurity. Therefore, when he learned about what was going on, he ordered the reinforcements to be stopped. Khan also said... And also said ... ”

"What else is he saying?"

"The Khan also said that your approach is too hasty for quick success, and you have buried a group of Tatar warriors in vain, which will hurt the interests of various tribes, and the whole shortcut to attack the Tianfeng City will be opened."

"Bastard !!" Helianta suddenly burst out and scolded angrily: "Alarshan, this soul, this fool, this pedantic fellow. Am I in a hurry for quick success? Am I harming the interests of the tribes? If it weren't for me all these years, how could he compete with the Great Wei, how could he win such a good fighter! This despicable villain who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge! ”

"Now is the best chance to win the Heavenly Seal City, he is thinking about how to calculate me at this time, it's really stupid, stupid!!"

"He's going to pay for it, he's going to pay for it!"

Heliantuo scolded like crazy here, but the soldiers around him didn't dare to take a breath, because Alarshan was the Khan of their Tardan, the most powerful man in the whole Tardan, but now Heliantuo scolded him so badly, obviously everyone was afraid, and some of the smarter ones pretended to be deaf early, as if nothing had happened.

"The country... National teacher, what should we do now? ”

"Alarshan, do you really think that this will restrain me, do you really think that there is nothing I can do about it! Pass my orders, the original plan remains the same, we will take the urn city no matter what. ”

"But General, we don't have reinforcements. Even if we occupy the urn city, we will not be able to defend it. ”

"Hmph, who said to keep it. We only need to occupy this urn city, occupy the urn city at the east gate of Tianfeng City, but we were forced to give up because there were no reinforcements, such a major decision-making mistake, even the Khan, I'm afraid he can't afford it. I'd like to see who will support a short-sighted man like him then!

Prepare and let's go! ”

Here, Heliantuo had made the final preparations, and the urn city became their only target. And Lu Ming and these people are infinitely close to this goal at this time.

"Ahead is the Heavenly Closure City."

"Yes, entering Wengcheng is equivalent to returning to Great Wei."

"Woo woo, I can finally go home."

"I didn't think I would come back alive."

Seeing that the Heavenly Closure City was close at hand, these captives who had been used as coolies before couldn't help but get excited, and some of them even left tears.

This journey was really not easy for them, everyone had not eaten for two whole days, and the original army of more than 700 people was now swallowed by this swamp only more than 400 people, and many people were permanently buried in the ground.

Even so, they still relied on their tenacious will to survive and stubbornly filled out a way to survive and arrived at the foot of the Heavenly Closure City.

"Whoosh!!"

Seeing that they were only three or four hundred meters away from the city wall, arrows suddenly fell from the sky and shot into the dirt in front of them, blocking their progress.

"Stop! Whoever is in the city, report your name! ”

The defenders of Urn City had long been aware of these people, and a few days ago they had noticed that hundreds of people were constantly wandering in the swamp in front of them, and they were constantly approaching in their direction. However, this did not attract attention, first, they knew the power of this swamp, and second, the number of these people was too small, less than half the number of defenders, and they did not pose a threat at all. So when these people approached, they shot arrows to warn.

"I'm Zhang Tiehan, the centurion of the Jiaolong Camp of Tianfeng City, let us in quickly."

The leader of the garrison in Wengcheng is a thousand-commander, which is said to be higher than Zhang Tiehan's level, but the Jiaolong Battalion is the trump card of Tianfeng City, so this leader still attaches great importance to Zhang Tiehan's identity.

"Do you have identification?"

"No, my lord, we are all some captured people, and we finally escaped, and we are naturally poor and white. I hope that the adults will let us enter first, and as long as we find someone from the Jiaolong Camp later, they will naturally be able to prove my identity. ”

"Well... The city guard was a little hesitant, according to the rules in the barracks, there is no identity token, and the city gate is strictly forbidden to be opened, especially in wartime, and there must be a personal order from the city lord.

But what Zhang Tiehan said doesn't seem to be false, in fact, this phenomenon is very common, and there will be many deserters and refugees asking to enter the city every day in front of every gate in the Tianfeng City for various reasons. Normally, these people are either chased away or shot red-handed for safety, and are rarely let in unless they can prove their identity.

"If you stand back, I can't be the master of this matter, and I need to report it to the top."

In the end, the cautious city guard decided to throw the problem on, but at this moment, a centurion beside him suddenly reminded: "Chief, no, some of them seem to be wearing Tatar military uniforms, you see, there are many black evil army!" ”

The Black Devils?!

The city guard took a closer look, and sure enough, he also found that something was wrong, this is obviously the enemy, damn it, almost fooled!

"Quick, quick, arrows, arrows!"

How could the defender of the mighty city of the Black Evil Army not know that seeing that the enemy was so close, he hurriedly gave the order.

This time, Lu Ming and the others suffered, and Zhang Tiehan, who was standing at the front, was shot in the right arm on the spot and almost lost his life.

"My lord, why is this, we are all the people of Great Wei, and we all work for the Heavenly Seal City, why do you want to shoot us!" Zhang Tiehan couldn't figure it out, the people in the city would say that if they changed their faces, they would change their faces.

"Hmph, you Tartan pigs, you still want to lie to us, you really damn it! Shoot me hard, and don't let any of them go! ”

From the top of the city came the vicious sound of the city guards, and the rain of arrows grew louder and heavier. At the same time, a detachment of troops in the valley was dispatched.
