Chapter Ninety-Four: Inside Yangguan City
After the werewolf vanguard left the Two Realms Pass, they headed towards Yangguan City. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Yangguan City will not be like Shaoyang, where all the people are moved into the city, and the villages along the way are all slaughtered by werewolves.
It was precisely because of the slaughter of villages, burning and looting that the werewolf army moved slower, and Yangguan City also learned of the werewolf invasion and was able to prepare.
On the third day, the werewolf army came to the outside of Yangguan City, and the people in the city were panicked, and the four gates were closed.
"The werewolf is outside the city, what should we do?" Jeff, the lord of Yangguan City, was worried, and gathered the officials and family heads in the city together, trying to find a countermeasure, or a way to save his life.
"Don't worry, don't worry, werewolves are not good at attacking the city, and they can't attack the city. Someone who couldn't see the facts clearly said.
Werewolves are indeed not good at attacking cities, but there are 30,000 werewolves outside the city, not a small group of wolf riders sent out when they raided in previous years.
"Yangguan City can't hold it, let's escape as soon as possible. ”
"Run, where are you going, and can you outrun the wolf?"
It's not that the people present didn't think about escaping, as soon as all the family business is in Yangguan City, they really have nothing but the wealth they can take away, and when they learn that the werewolf is coming, it is too late, and they can't escape the werewolf's pursuit at their speed.
"I've sent people out of the city to ask for help, but I'm afraid it's too late. Jeff sat there dejectedly, not hoping for reinforcements, in addition to the garrison of the Two Realms Pass, the regular army closest to Yangguan City was also far away from Wilderness City.
30,000 wolf cavalry, once they attack Yangguan City at all costs, with 500 garrisons and private soldiers of no more than 1,000 people from each family, it is a question whether they can last a day.
"My lord, the matter has come to this, there is no way back, but to stick to the city, and my subordinates are willing to serve the dead. "The captain of the Yangguan City garrison has the temperament of a soldier.
"We are willing to do everything in our power to help you defend the city. "There are others who have come forward to take a stand.
There are two, there are two, there are two, there are three, one after another, and everyone present has expressed their willingness to live and die with Yangguancheng.
"Well, with the whole city working together, we will definitely be able to defend the city and get through the difficulties. Jeff's decline was swept away, and there was a sense of perseverance and determination.
Captain Li was responsible for commanding the garrison and private soldiers in the city to defend against the werewolves, and the administrative officer immediately recruited young men and mobilized materials such as rolling wood, oil, and fire to defend the city. Since he decided to defend the city to the death, Jeff no longer hesitated and immediately ordered.
For a while, the whole city of Yangguan City took action, and the private soldiers of each family were already ready, and under the leadership of the garrison captain, they walked up to the city tower to guard against the offensive that the werewolves might launch at any time.
With the full support of the various families in the city, a large number of materials for defending the city were carried to the castle tower.
Everywhere in the city, the messengers ran around, announcing the orders of the city lord.
"Werewolves are besieging the city, and when life and death are at stake, everyone needs to take up arms to defend their homes and protect their loved ones. The young man who was willing to participate in resisting the werewolf siege gathered in the open space under the city tower. ”
The fear of the people of the Northern Wilderness for the orcs comes from their looting and slaughter year after year, and in people's hearts, the orcs represent death, and it is too difficult for ordinary people to muster up the courage to fight werewolves.
However, when it comes to truly facing death, there is always someone who will break through the fear, because.
Lao Liu Tou is a veteran who has also fought with orcs, and in his hands, more than one orc has died.
The shouts of the servants outside sounded over and over again, tugging at the heartstrings of Lao Liu's head, and the past resurfaced in front of him again.
The first time he fought with an orc, he was so frightened that he couldn't move his legs, and if it hadn't been for Captain Wu saving his life, the liquid flowing from his pants would have been bright red instead of pale yellow.
Since then, he has grown up from war to war, and is no longer afraid of orcs, but Captain Wu has long since never returned.
Compared with Wu Chang and those comrades-in-arms who left one by one, Lao Liu Tou was lucky, he only lost his entire right hand in the end.
The cloudiness in the eyes of the sixty-year-old Liu Tou dissipated, revealing an indescribable essence, returned to the house, rummaged under the bed for a while, and took out an animal skin bag.
When the package was unwrapped, a knife was revealed, unsheathed, the blade glowing without a trace of rust, apparently carefully maintained.
Holding the knife in his left hand, Old Liu Tou walked out of the house leisurely, and just as he was about to step out of the door, a hand reached over and snatched the knife from his hand.
"Father, let me go, you wait at home. Old Liu Tou's son took away the knife, stepped out of the door without looking back, and walked towards the city tower, not because he didn't want to look back, but because he was afraid that after seeing it, he wouldn't have the courage to leave.
Old Liu stood there with his hands on the door frame, looking at the back of his son's departure, with tears in his eyes.
The butcher Wang's family had no other weapons, only a few butcher knives and boning knives for chopping meat, and after picking them for a long time, he still didn't decide which one to use, so he simply packed them all up, carried them on his back and walked out of the house.
"Father, where are you going? "A little girl of three or five years old was pulling the butcher's trouser leg, she didn't know where her father was going, but she didn't want him to leave.
The figure of the butcher Wang paused, tried his best to squeeze out a smile on his face, and bent down to touch his daughter's hair, "Father is going out to kill pigs, and when he comes back, he will bring delicious meat to Yaya, you must be obedient at home." ”
"Yaya doesn't like to eat meat, she wants to eat sugar. Naturally, meat is indispensable in the butcher's house, and the little girl bit her finger and asked.
"Good," the king butcher immediately agreed, and then turned to leave, and the moment he turned around, tears couldn't help but drip from the corners of his eyes.
The wife of the butcher picked up her daughter and looked at the figure of her husband leaving, suppressing her sadness, and her eyes were already red and swollen.
"Mother, don't cry, my father will be back soon, and he will bring us candy to eat. The little girl comforted.
More and more young people gathered in the open space arranged by the administrative officer, and only a few of them came with weapons, and the weapons were even more varied, including kitchen knives and rolling pins, and most of the others came empty-handed.
The population of Yangguan City is much larger than that of Songhai City, with nearly 200,000 people in the entire territory, and more than 120,000 permanent residents in the city.
The administrative officer also appeared here, and when he saw the young man who had arrived, there were many more than he expected, and at this pace, it should not be a problem to gather 10,000 people in one day.
Although the young and strong equipment and management are lacking, at this moment, they can no longer take care of these.
"Come on, select a few responsible persons from the young and strong to assist in management, and move all the surplus weapons and equipment in the treasury to distribute them. The administrative officer instructed his subordinates.
