Hearing the dissuasion of the innkeeper, Lu Jin showed his scimitar in his right hand and compared it: "We both have martial arts, so it shouldn't be in the way to go out and take a look, right?"

The shiny scimitar shook in front of his eyes, and the guy was also afraid, so he took a step back and said, "I'm just talking, don't take it seriously, I'll go first."

"Wait." Wan Yanxi stopped him, "How many gates does our city have?"

"There are two of them, one west gate and one south gate." The guy ran as he spoke.

Looking at the guy who fled in the wilderness, Lu Jin put away the scimitar and pulled Wan Yanxi to the alley, the noisy street just now was empty, and the doors that could be seen were closed, lest outsiders break in.

The county seat is not big, and Lu Jin remembered that they entered through the west gate, so the two walked to the west gate according to the way they came, and climbed the city tower along the steps.

Many officers and soldiers were waiting on the city wall, and when they saw the two women appear, they were very surprised, and their eyes swept over them.

Lu Jin observed that the Northern Hu cavalry outside the city had begun to encircle, and the heavy troops were concentrated outside the west and south gates.

The gates of this city are specially constructed, the west gate is south, and the south gate is west, both of which are out of the middle of the city wall and offset to the southwest.

Standing high and looking far away, Lu Jin finally understood why this city was built so specially.

The two gates are close to each other, so they can work together to reinforce each other easily and quickly, and the two teams that rush out from different gates during the attack will not be scattered, and complement each other to avoid the danger of being divided and surrounded.

At that moment, she told Wan Yanxi what she saw in a whisper.

"You could have fled with the county order just now, but now that the Beihu people have surrounded the county seat, it's too late to escape."

"You think I'm willing, who wants to leave home and run away from a beautiful wife? Don't laugh at me, why don't you leave?"

"No way, my mother needs to be taken care of, and I have nowhere to hide."

The two soldiers guarding the city talked in a low voice, and Wan Yanxi's ears were very good, and he overheard the conversation between the two.

The enemy is currently most afraid that the dragons will be leaderless, and if the county order really escapes, everyone's hearts will be scattered, and this city will be difficult to defend.

Outside the west gate, there were more than ten people in Beihu's army, all of whom were tied up with five flowers and only left their legs to be able to walk, all of these people were dressed in the Dawu Dynasty to serve, and the person in front was actually wearing the official uniform of the imperial court.

"The people in the city listen, I am the commander of Beihu, your county order is in our hands, obediently open the city gate and spare you and the county order from dying, if you dare to resist, none of you will be able to live." The commander of the thousand soldiers held a long knife on the neck of the county commander, and shouted loudly in the accent of the Dawu Dynasty.

"It's a prefectural order!"

"It's really a prefectural order!"

"It's our county order, you can't be wrong."

The guards on the tower of the city talked a lot, as if a pot was boiling.

"Be quiet, your county order must speak, and no one should make a sound." The commander shouted sharply, and the noisy people at the scene gradually quieted down.

The commander of the thousand commanders carried the county order closer to the city tower, so that the soldiers above could hear more clearly.

The county commander raised his head, he had long since lost his usual arrogance and arrogance, and said with a panicked face: "I am your county commander, hurry up and open the city gate, everyone is safe, don't be an enemy of Beihu, it's better to die than to live, isn't it good to live in peace, you hear clearly."

There was silence on the tower, and all eyes were on one of the men.

The man was dressed in a military uniform, his armor glittering in the sunset of the west, holding a ghost-headed broadsword in his hand, and he was examining the movements of the Beihu people under the city.

"Captain Luo, let's surrender, you see that the county orders have been captured, and there will be no good result if we resist hard." A soldier trembled and persuaded.

This sentence made many people on the city tower moved, not everyone was greedy for life and afraid of death, but the county order took the lead in making a living, which made too many people's morale instantly low.

"Don't surrender."

Just when everyone was hesitating, Wan Yanxi walked out and said loudly, "Whoever has the sharp knife in his hand has the bargaining chips to speak, vote."

If it falls, it will be equivalent to the sword of the Beihu people on our necks, and when the time comes, we will not be in charge, and we will leave all life and death to the other party, are you willing?"

Looking at the silent crowd, Captain Luo had an answer in his heart, and he shouted to the downstairs of the city: "Lord County Commander, people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, I can't obey my fate, please do it yourself."

"Don't, listen to me, Beihu will treat us well, as long as we surrender and sacrifice the city, we can all save our lives." The county commander pleaded bitterly, and cold sweat broke out from his forehead.

Looking at the city, Captain Luo sneered: "Beihu really treats us well, and asks the county order to let them withdraw all their troops, and our people in the city can live in peace and security, which is better than anything else."

"You, you dare to resist the decree, I am your county order." The county commander wanted to stretch out his hand to give orders, but the bundle was strong, and his arms couldn't move.

Captain Luo said disdainfully: "My lord, from the moment you escaped from the city, you are no longer our county commander, we need a leader who takes the lead, not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death."

"You, you."

The county commander was so angry that he couldn't speak, and ordered: "Listen to the people above, hurry up and take down the captain, I will be rewarded."

After waiting for a while and seeing that no one obeyed the county order, Captain Luo laughed and said, "The county commander is really interesting, you are too busy to take care of yourself now, will anyone still listen to your orders?"

"Take down the captain quickly." The county order was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

The county commander was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but the commander behind him was impatient, and he cut off the head of the county commander with a knife in his hand. The more than ten bound people behind him were also killed together.

The commander retreated into the army, waved his hand and ordered, "Siege."

Hundreds of people dressed in the service of the Dawu Dynasty ran up with high ladders, set up ladders and climbed up the city wall.

"Shoot the arrows." Captain Luo ordered.

A soldier stared at the people who climbed up: "My lord, they are all their own people, you see, that's Lao Liu, that's Brother Zhao, that's Qiangzi."

"It doesn't matter who it is, now it's either him dead or I'm alive, we don't have any choice." Captain Luo bent his bow and shot an arrow, and when the person who climbed half of the first was hit by an arrow above his head, he fell down with a wail.

Seeing this, the rest of the people also had the courage to drop arrows downward, watching their former brothers fall one after another.

The West Gate has Captain Luo to lead by example, and the defense is normal, and after a while, people exclaimed from the South Gate Tower: "Oh no, they are attacking."

"I'll take a look." Lu Jin knew that there were no extra manpower here, so she held the round shield in her left hand and rushed over with a scimitar in her right hand.

On the tower of the south gate, the original soldiers of the Dawu Dynasty who attacked it cut down when they saw people, and saw that the city tower was not protected.
