Chapter 307: Divine Decree

The rain of arrows fell on the two of them, and Lu Jin said in horror: "Wanyan girl, come down quickly, the arrows of the Beihu people will arrive soon."

Countless arrows flew in, and that dull and shocking voice first came into the ears of the two people, and Wan Yanxi also sensed the seriousness of the situation.

She jumped off Caifeng, just jumped onto Lu Jin's sika deer, and hugged Lu Jin's slender waist tightly.

Lu Jin was just about to throw out the shield with his left hand, but with a long roar from Wan Yanxi, the colorful phoenix flying above the heads of the two of them instantly became huge, just covering them and stopping the rain of arrows that were pressed down like dark clouds for the two of them.

Beihu fired several rounds of volleys, Caifeng protected the two of them forward, and Caifeng, who was weak and weak, finally couldn't withstand the arrows piled up like a hill, and let out a piercing wail, which slowly dissipated in the air.

Fortunately, Lu Jin had already come to the city with the sika deer, and her mind was moved, and the sika deer rose high and flew to the city wall.

"Wow!"

Amid the exclamations of the defenders on the city wall, the sika deer fell steadily. Lu Jin put away the "Phoenix Dance Seeking Phoenix Formula", and the two stood hand in hand.

"Congratulations on the safe return of the two ladies, it scared the hell out of me just now." What Luo Jinrong said was true, if he were him, he would have been shot into a hedgehog by an arrow.

"The Beihu people are so competitive and brave, this team of people and horses has been frustrated and suffered losses when they come here, and they will definitely attack the city with all their strength within an hour, so we must prepare for the worst." Wan Yanxi admonished.

"Madame, don't worry, the lower official will make preparations." Luo Jinrong went down the city wall to mobilize all the people who could fight, and made arrangements for co-existence and death with the city.

As Yan Xi expected, half an hour later, the black-pressed Beihu army surrounded and began to attack the city from different directions.

Even if they made preparations in advance, the fierceness of the Beihu people's offensive was beyond everyone's expectations, and they attacked one after another regardless of life and death, causing crises in many parts of the city, and even occupied the original city tower of the West City Gate for a time, and finally drove them off the city wall under the hard work of Wan Yanxi and Lu Jin.

Due to the excessive offensive of the Beihu army, Wan Yanxi and Lu Jin were exhausted and constantly dealt with dangerous situations in various parts of the city wall.

The city was in danger, and everyone in the city felt fear like never before, and most of the young men went to the city to fight. Even more than 30 strong women spontaneously organized themselves to go up to the city to assist in the defense, helping to transport bows and arrows, bandaging the wounds of wounded soldiers, carrying the seriously wounded down to the city for treatment, and doing what they could.

At dusk, the Beihu army paid heavy casualties and could not capture the city, so they reluctantly withdrew and re-encircled the city.

The officers and soldiers in the city were victorious, but they were not happy, the number was already small, and they could not afford any casualties, so they all dragged their tired bodies to silently clean the battlefield.

Back at the county office, it was already dark.

Luo Jinrong was sullen and asked Yan Xi worriedly: "Dare to ask Madame, according to today's situation, can we still hold the city?"

"Yes, as long as we believe in ourselves, we will be able to keep it." Wan Yanxi said without hesitation.

Lu Jin said worriedly, "If they attack a few more times like today, will we still be able to keep this city?"

"They won't attack the city like this again, if I'm not mistaken, they are also the end of the crossbow, the army of the Dawu Dynasty should be nearby, the siege is just a panic in their hearts." After resting for a while, Wan Yanxi's forehead was still sweating, and everyone was tired from this day's fierce battle, so she took out a hand towel and wiped it off.

Lu Jin was puzzled: "How do you know?"

Wan Yanxi said with a smile: "For so many days, we haven't received any news from any of the surrounding cities, and it is estimated that they have all fallen under the control of Beihu. At present, the army of the Dawu Dynasty is approaching, and our city is like a nail nailed in the flesh of Beihu, which must be pulled out, so the original team was removed and changed by changing the defense. Whether or not they will attack the city depends on how our army on the periphery progresses."

Lu Jin and Luo Jinrong are both suspicious, and they will be suspicious of Yan Xi's words.

However, through Lu Jin's careful observation in the past two days, it seems to confirm Wan Yanxi's judgment, because of the Beihu army

The number of pots and stoves is decreasing every day, and many troops seem to have been transferred to other places.

After she told Yan Xi the news, Luo Jinrong was also overjoyed when she heard it: "Then our city will be safe."

That night, the two of them whispered in the same bed for a while, and they were just about to fall asleep next to each other, when the old mother who was waiting for them knocked softly on the door outside the house: "Is Mrs. asleep, Lord Luo has an invitation in front of you."

"Get over right now." Wan Yanxi agreed, invited late at night, there must be an urgent military situation.

The two of them came to the court neatly dressed, and a man dressed in the official uniform of the court sat on the upper seat, his shoulders wrapped in cotton cloth, and blood oozed from it. Luo Jinrong accompanied him.

"The two ladies came just in time, this is Gonggong Cao from the imperial court, who was hit by an arrow in the shoulder when he broke into the enemy camp to deliver the holy decree, and he was just bandaged." Luo Jinrong got up and said.

"Divine Decree?" Lu Jin was surprised, for the first time, she felt some kind of connection with the palace.

Gonggong Cao arched his hand in the direction of the capital and said: "All the guards in the border pass have fallen into the hands of the Beihu people, only you, a small city that has no danger to defend, have held on to the present, and the saint is overjoyed, and specially asked Weichen to risk death to send a holy decree to reward Lord Luo as the general of Dingyuan, and commend Lord Luo for his contribution to defending the city."

"Father-in-law Cao has worked hard, and the small town has been guarded by the two ladies until now, and the villain is just stained with the light of the two ladies." Luo Jinrong didn't dare to be greedy, what he said was also the truth.

Wan Yanxi asked cautiously, "Dare to ask Gonggong Cao, has the Gu Sage Chao Gu Master arrived at the military camp at the border pass?"

Gonggong Cao laughed and said, "Lord Gu came here two days ago and led the army to win several battles one after another, and we mentioned two of them last night."

"What did he say?" Lu Jin was uneasy, she was a fake lady who deserved to be unjust, and she felt guilty.

"The story of the two ladies assisting their husbands in guarding the city has long been spread all over the border gates, and we are also envious, but when we talked about it with Lord Gu, he first denied it, and then said that you were messing around, and then he also admired you two. I also took a risk this time, but Master Gu said that as long as I successfully entered the city, I only need to find a girl named Lu Jin when I go out of the city, and she will definitely protect me from the city safely. Gonggong Cao stared at Lu Jin and said.

Lu Jin's cheeks flushed, and he said embarrassedly, "I am indeed Lu Jin, and it is incumbent on me to take my father-in-law out of the city safely."

Several people chatted, and the happiest of them was Luo Jinrong, when the two wives of the court's military department would assist him in defending the city, it was incredible in itself, and he had always been suspicious of the identities of the two.

Tonight I was overjoyed when I received the holy decree, and I couldn't wait to quickly burn a few more incense sticks for my ancestors, thanking them for their blessings.

He seemed to see the glory and wealth of the future at his fingertips.
