You must know that Cangxu City has four gates, and it is impossible to prevent it at all!

In this situation, although the iron cavalry in Cangxu City can't get out, it can't give full play to the power of the iron cavalry charge, and the combat effectiveness will be reduced a lot. But as long as the barbarian side is dragged down, the goal will be achieved.

After all, this is also only a stopgap measure.

"As for those two barbarian martial venerables, you don't have to worry. They didn't dare to come in with two people. ”

Yang Ji was only halfway through his words, and he didn't go any further.

Everyone was stunned at first, and then immediately understood the meaning of Yang Ji's subtext. If two barbarian martial artists enter the city, Yang Ji will enter the outside of the city.

Although Cangxu City will fall in the end, and no one can stop the two Martial Venerables, but in the same way, no one on the barbarian side can stop Yang Ji.

In the end, I'm afraid the barbarian side won't be better. It's a swap of play where both sides don't want to die.

As for if one person comes in, with Yang Ji's strength, with Sima Shaozhen, the two Great Martial Sects of the Sima family, and the power of the three floating warships, I am afraid that the other party will have more than half of the probability of dying here.

In this way, everyone's hearts were relieved a lot, and the pressure of Mount Tai was overwhelming, and the pressure everywhere was also reduced a lot.

As long as you don't have to worry about those two martial artists, although everyone's situation is very poor, they can still rely on the city wall to survive for a while, and there will not be a situation where the city is destroyed and the whole army is wiped out.

Although at that time, I'm afraid that except for Yang Ji, all of the people sitting here were gone, but there was no way to do it!

"The Poison Python Barbarian Venerable will definitely not let us guard the city wall all the time. He will definitely take measures. With an army of 40,000, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long. ”

In the crowd, Li Yi suddenly spoke.

The walls are indeed useful, and this is the only advantage for everyone. Everyone understands this, and the barbarians must also understand it. So the other party will definitely not let everyone stay here.

"It's more than that. There are quite a few barbarian merchants in Cangxu City. These people have always colluded with the barbarians and exchanged information. How dangerous the situation is this time, I am afraid that these people will make waves in the city, and when the time comes, we will be even more difficult to hold on. ”

A middle-aged man in the crowd said.

There are a large number of barbarian merchants in the cities on the northwest border, not only Cangxu City. The relationship between these people and the barbarians is intricate.

The court needed them to ease relations with the barbarians. Hopefully there is a connection between them and the barbarians. But at the same time, it is necessary to prevent them from being the "leading party" and leading other barbarian tribes to sneak attack and attack the imperial court.

However, the barbarians of the court were the strategy set by Taizu back then, and it was impossible for everyone to suppress and slaughter them so blatantly. Or, one stone stirs up a thousand layers, and in the northwest border, there are no less than a million barbarian merchants.

If Cangxu City is guarded here, the barbarian guilds in other cities will cause an uproar!

No one can afford this kind of "political" correctness.

"A criminal squad must be set up to supervise the barbarian merchants. In troubled times, it should be re-enacted. At this time, once they are found to have colluded with the barbarians outside, they will be killed on the spot and executed immediately, only in this way can they be deterred. ”

A military general brought by Wang Tai said, he is an advocate.

"But we only have 5,000 troops, and we need to defend four gates. Originally, there were not enough people, and a firing squad had to be divided. When the time comes, what will happen to the barbarians outside the city? Will it be up to a few hundred people at each of the four gates?"

Immediately there was a voice of opposition.

"But don't we deal with it? We don't have enough manpower, if we let them make waves in the rear. Don't forget, the barbarian merchants are also barbarians, they have the same bloodline, and they also have the same fighting power as the barbarian warriors. A barbarian merchant is a fighting force. Will we be able to handle it then?"

There are many people who support firing squads. But there are also many opponents:

"Not all of the barbarian merchants are like this, so wouldn't this force them to rebel? If those who have a heart are allowed to spread the word, won't the whole city be panicked and in chaos at that time, isn't this a self-chaos?"

......

There was chaos on the originally orderly floating battleship. The problem of barbarian merchants has been around for a long time. It's not a day or two. It's just that at times like these, it's especially important.

"I'm not so worried about the barbarian merchants who are in trouble, and I'm not worried that the barbarians will attack, but I'm worried that they won't attack now. ”

A voice came from the oblique brake, and when the voice of the son of the Sima family was heard, the originally chaotic deck suddenly fell silent.

"Young Master, what do you mean by that?"

This time, even the two Eight Great Martial Sects brought by Sima Shaozhen's side from the family were confused. The biggest threat that everyone is facing now is the army of the two barbarian warriors, the poisonous python and the barbarian general.

This is also the discussion this time, but Sima Shaozhen actually said that he was worried that they would not attack.

"Don't you notice, if you want to attack, you should attack when you are besieging the city. Unlike in the primeval jungle, Cangxu City is our dependence and our cage, in which we can breathe for a while, but we cannot escape. Why didn't they attack then? It should have been the best chance!"

"Could it be that today is not the same as yesterday, and tomorrow is not the same as today?"

Sima Shaozhen said, a pair of sword eyebrows furrowed, and his voice revealed a thick worry.

"What do you mean, poisonous python barbarians are waiting for something?"

Yang Ji expressed the uneasiness in Sima Shaozhen's heart.

He didn't participate in the previous argument, and only spoke at this time. He was also uneasy about the situation outside the city. If the Poison Python Barbarian Venerable wants to capture Cangxu City, there is actually no need to wait or anything.

With his army of more than 40,000 people, as long as he pays a little price, Cangxu City will definitely fall. But these people are too quiet.

The longer the time drags on, the faster the reinforcements will arrive, and the more unfavorable it will be for the barbarians. Yang Ji believed that a powerhouse of the level of the Poison Python Barbarian would not be unintelligible.

The strong are not divided into barbarians, if they are not wise and intelligent, it is impossible to cultivate to the level of the Ninefold Martial Venerable!

"So you feel it, too!"

Sima Shaozhen said suddenly, his eyebrows furrowed even tighter, and Yang Ji could feel the uneasiness in his heart increase. It seems that his own words have the opposite effect on him.

"I'm worried now that the Poisonous Python Barbarian Venerable is using Cangxu City to drag us down. And then use us to lure the other legions, waiting for them to take the bait! These people may not only want to annihilate us. ”

Sima Shaozhen said worriedly.

"Buzz!"

As soon as Sima Shaozhen's voice fell, all the captains, captains, generals, and the two great martial arts sects of the Sima family, including Yang Ji, all changed their faces.

At a glance, everyone's faces were bloodless.

Everyone thought that the army outside the city was determined by themselves, and was determined to annihilate Cangxu City. But if the other party's purpose is not just so simple, it would be terrible.

"Buzz!"

The crowd boiled, whispering, panicked, and fearful on the faces of many people at the same time.

"Brother Sima, what do you mean by this. The barbarians in this primeval jungle seem to have been almost wiped out by us. These armies led by the Poison Python Barbarian Venerable and the Barbarian General are probably the last legions in this jungle, and these alone will annihilate us. But if you want to deal with other reinforcements, I'm afraid it's still far from enough, right?"

Yang Jidao.

Sima Shaozhen said that he hadn't thought about it before. It's not that there haven't been such conjectures. But Yang Ji still couldn't understand why the poisonous python barbarian venerable and the barbarian general made such a plan.

As long as the imperial court sends another Ninefold Martial Venerable, I'm afraid the number of winners and losers in this battle will be unpredictable, right?

"Brother Yang, you are new to the barbarians, and you don't know much about the barbarians, you think about this matter too simply!"

Sima Shaozhen shook his head:

"If it's a simple war, that's fine. But the Poisonous Python Barbarian Venerable is a person of the Nine Realms of the Barbarians. ”

"The Savage Nine Paths?"

Yang Ji finally couldn't help but raise his head in surprise.

"Haven't heard of it, have you?"

Sima Shaozhen smiled bitterly, "Actually, the detailed information about the barbarians is only known to the top of the military. Some of you may have heard a little bit about it, but it's just not that detailed. ”

When Sima Shaozhen spoke, his eyes swept at Zhang Qi, Li Yi and others. These people didn't look surprised when they mentioned the "Savage Nine Paths", and it was obvious that they knew a little bit about it.

"Most of the people we come into contact with are straggler, nomadic tribes. They often send out some ferocious birds to drop stones, giant trees, etc., these people are of varying size, and they have no fixed residence, and they are here this year, and they will probably run away to other places next year. Most of the people who survive in the primeval jungle are these people. ”

"One level higher is a barbarian force like the barbarian general. They have their own army, they obey orders, and they are extremely disciplined. It can carry out large-scale sieges, and can recruit the surrounding barbarian tribes at any time to replenish its own troops. ”

"And the third level is the level of the Poison Python Barbarian Venerable. The place where they live, deep in the primeval jungle, is a little further away from us. Under normal circumstances, if there is no special thing, it is difficult to meet them even if we go deep into the primeval jungle. ”

"The fierce birds trained by these people are more powerful, and the terrestrial tribes are more powerful, and they cooperate with the beast mounts domesticated in the primeval jungle. Move fast, be strong, come and go like the wind. In terms of strength, it is still stronger than the barbarian generals. When encountering these people, only the regular elite army in the imperial court can deal with them. ”

"However, forces at this level generally don't easily invade the border. Therefore, the imperial court generally does not pay attention to them. However, although the power of the poisonous python barbarian is generally not easy to appear.
