Chapter 239: Guide

The city wall has always played an important role in human warfare.

Before the advent of gunpowder and guns, it has always been a sharp weapon used by agricultural civilization for defense.

As long as there are sufficient reserves, the defenders under the protection of the city walls often have a huge advantage.

For many years, the nomads outside the Cypriots did not rush to exchange their lives for cities, but it was different.

The marriage between Badun and the Yuan family, and a large number of craftsmen were sent to Saiwai.

These craftsmen brought with them the techniques for making large siege machines.

This made him think that he had the capital to conquer the city.

But Ton's self-confidence had no effect in the face of Luronse.

Lu Longsai is a product of the paranoia of Gongsun Yan's murder, and the resources at hand are tilted with all his might.

Whether it is the construction of the city or the grain and military resources in the city, even if Zhao Xi is not there, it is enough to block the enemy outside the city for three or five years.

For a few days, the Bandun Department broke and sank into the sand, gnawed his mouth full of blood, and did not touch the bricks and stones under the city.

The cold wind of the north blew, carrying fine pieces of ice and slapping against the armor leaves of the Lulong defenders.

Compared with the mountains of corpses and blood piled up under the city, the atmosphere above the city walls is very relaxed.

In a corner tower, a bubbling copper hot pot is placed on a square table.

Ever since she had eaten hot pot in Guzhu, Xia Houlan has become a fanatic.

Although it is always spicy, it will never touch the clear soup.

Knowing his preferences, Gongsun Yan specially sent a lot of base materials to Lu Long when arranging military supplies.

Xia Houlan was on the city tower, pulling Zhao Xi and Liu Luan, the chief bookkeeper, to make a piece of hot pot.

The three of them sat opposite each other, eating and drinking, Liu Luan and Zhao Xi drank a few cheeses sent by Guzhu.

Outside the door, Wuhua was tied to a bearded man with a blue nose and swollen face.

Xia Houlan is not Zhao Yun who is very cautious at all times.

When defending the city and occupying a huge and almost insurmountable advantage, Xia Houlan only felt a little bored.

led the servants and cruised outside Lulongse, so he caught a strange man.

"Two gentlemen, please." Xia Houlan said in her mouth, but did not lift the wine glass, but took a chopstick mutton.

In the military, it was decreed that no one should drink alcohol in wartime.

Xia Houlan would not disobey the order in public, and put all her energy into the pot in front of her.

When the chopsticks are stirred, the spicy and fragrant flavor permeates.

Gollum –

"Didn't you say that you Han people are the most polite?" Mudo lay on his stomach with a loud chirp in his stomach.

His face turned red, and he said in a stiff Chinese dialect: "You said you invited me to be a guest before, why did you tie me here and eat alone?" ”

Xia Houlan didn't expect that when he was arrested, he said casually, he actually remembered such a prison, and laughed twice: "Hungry?" ”

Mudo buried his head in the gray-white cement plastered floor, silent.

"Then you're hungry."

Xiahoulan is not a well-known person.

Zhao Xi and Liu Luan are here, if they are easily provoked, if the two gentlemen make any mistakes, it will be difficult for him to pay for his sins by wiping his neck.

So, Xiahoulan brought a bowl full of mutton, mixed with leek sauce, and ate it in front of Mu Duo.

When the bearded man in front of him smelled the full smell, he chopped him off and hung it on the wall.

I don't know if I noticed Xia Houlan's sinister intentions, Mu Duo suddenly raised his head: "I am willing to surrender." ”

Xia Houlan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, there are few captured Hu people who would rather die than give in, and they are willing to surrender nine times out of ten.

But there are still few people who are so obedient and active.

Xia Houlan was about to ask someone to carry him down, so he shaved his head and sent him to the labor camp to receive reform education.

Mu Duo seemed to be worried that Xiahou Lan was unwilling to surrender and must let him sacrifice to the sky, so he spoke: "I am familiar with the situation of various tribes, and I can come in handy. ”

Xiahou Lan was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, and turned her head to look at Zhao Xi and Liu Luan.

"Are you familiar with the road outside the plug?" Zhao Xi asked.

"Familiar." Mudo replied.

"Can you find your way to the tribes?" Liu Luan said.

Mudo nodded again.

"Even if the mountains are covered with snow in winter?"

Mu Duo was stunned for a moment, and was about to nod, as if he thought of something, his color changed.

Xiahou Lan, who had been observing his expression, smiled lightly and said to Zhao Xi: "The guide that Zilong wanted, I found it." ”

Zhao Xi also smiled, twisted the beard on his chin, and looked at Mu Duo, who looked stunned: "I'm not too honest, so I bothered Zixiu and sent him to the labor camp, where I personally taught him." ”

Xia Houlan smiled and arched her hand and said, "No." ”

When he looked up again, there was a sound of horns and bone flutes outside the city.

The bronze bell above the corner tower is runged.

The whining sound of the horn was heard all around.

Xia Houlan got up and stretched, picked up the pocket from the table, and clamped it in the crook of her arm.

On the walls, groups of spearmen ran, but more often than not, crossbowmen.

Later, the bow and crossbow rockets will slash through the sky, mercilessly reaping the lives of the enemy.

Xiahou Lan stood on the city wall, through the thorny web of iron thorns, looking at the Hu people who were surging like ants and insects in the distance, and showed a relaxed smile.
