23 It seems to be strong, but it is actually empty, and he is willing to give his life to keep it for a while

Xiao Yi listened to him quietly, Ling'er sighed and replied to him,

"Do you know the powerful position of our Luo family here back then?"

Xiao Yi replied,

"I've heard that the co-owner of the world is only a matter of the past few decades, and in the past, here was the world of your Luo family!"

Ling'er Dao,

"It was the era of a wealthy family, our Luo family, what a scenery at that time! Compared to now, it was really a heaven and an underground! Later, the big leader gave up this kind of glory for the sake of the people, and it became what it is now! Although the prestige is still there, there is not much military power! The Zhao family said it well on the surface, but behind the scenes, they really don't want us to develop again, so they always target us, of course, not only in terms of the control of military power! Take the large territory in the west as an example, it was originally under the control of my Luo family, but now it is the Gao family, and the Feng family and other clans assist the Zhao family in managing local affairs! The big leader said that although the Zhao family has a strong control over the Hao family, it is really good for the people, and the people are getting richer day by day, and there is a new atmosphere every day in this world, so we are also very pleased!"

Xiao Yi nodded,

"This is indeed true, now that most of the wars have subsided, the world is peaceful, and there is indeed that prosperous scene!"

Ling'er said seriously,

"The big leader is also happy from the bottom of his heart when he sees such a scene!"

Xiao Yidao,

"The great chief has a benevolent heart for the country and the people, which is why he is so loved by the people!

Ling'er Dao,

"Because we're interested, we're doing pretty well!"

Xiao Yi still has some questions,

"Ling'er, I have something I want to ask you, who was Luo Ping captured and sent here?!"

Ling'er didn't answer, Xiao Yi replied,

"If my guess is right, he went to ask for help, but I didn't expect that he was kidnapped and sent back by the Zhao family! I believe that the assassination will not be done by him, he is indeed an excellent heir, why was he tied up, I am afraid that it is also to reduce the power of the Luo family, and it will be a plan!"

Ling'er looked at Xiao Yi, very curious, but still nodded,

"You guess, it's not bad! The big leader admires him the most, how could it be Luo Ping's doing? So, in the end, he still didn't have the heart to kill him! This is fine, you don't have to worry about so many trivial things. He will be a plain-headed common man in the future, work at sunrise and rest at sunset, marry a kind girl, and give birth to a bunch of lovely children, which is also another kind of happiness!"

Xiao Yi sighed and said,

"But without him Luo Ping, can Roger be stronger than him?"

Ling'er Dao,

"It's hard to say, I'm not very familiar with Roger, but, in my opinion, it won't be any worse!"

Xiao Yi couldn't help nodding and said,

"Having said so much, I haven't mentioned why there are only more than 1,000 defenders, is there no need to defend around this big city?!"

Ling'er replied,

"If together with the men and horses of these four directions, there are nearly 10,000 people, and my Guizhou City will be guarded by those 3,000 elite soldiers! However, more than half of them were transferred by the imperial court more than half of them, saying that they were going to gather together to deal with some poisonous gods! Although we are a little worried, how can we refuse!"

Xiao Yi exclaimed,

"Why is there such a thing as a poisonous god!"

Looking at Ling'er's expression, he also doesn't know much about the poisonous god.

"I've heard the name of this poison god, but how can he have such strength to make the court so nervous!

Xiao Yi asked,

"Where have they gone?"

Ling'er Dao,

"I don't know about that, but they're heading west!"

Xiao Yi touched his chin with his hand, thought for a moment, and said,

"These Yi people are also from the west, could it be that they are in the same group as the poison god? Let's send someone to get them, they are good, send a large army to go deep alone, and go straight to the Yellow Dragon!"

Ling'er nodded,

"Today, these Yi people came over, and I just remembered this, but I am afraid that as you said, it is the poisonous god who is making trouble behind!"

Xiao Yi thought to himself, if this Yi man is really related to the poison god, then he will be able to find him along the vine and get rid of this evil thief, so that he will not harm the world again! Xiao Yi has to say that the Yi team has come back again, but this attack, their team is more scattered, and they are not very close to this side, so it seems that the possibility of a feint attack is greater!

Xiao Yi and Ling'er went over to guard for a while, Ling'er's skills are really good, among this woman, she can be regarded as outstanding! She has a straightforward temperament, and Xiao Yi also thinks a little highly of her! That Gao Daqiang will eventually die in her hands, which can be regarded as his creation! After defending for a while, the siege troops retreated, and the defense of the city was much easier. was happy, but someone came to report to Ling'er, and Ling'er and the man stepped aside, and it shouldn't be a good thing to see her expression turn gloomy.

After saying a few words, Ling'er quickly ran to Xiao Yi and said,

"If the south gate is breached, the city will be undefended! You, and your companions, should find an opportunity to go out of the city, lest you lose your life here in vain!"

Xiao Yidao,

"The great war is coming, how can I just leave?! My companions are in a hidden place, I have someone to keep them safe, I am still skilled, I can definitely help, if you can see me, let's go together!"

Ling'er didn't hesitate, nodded slightly, and then turned around and left! Someone had already prepared a fast horse for her, and she was a good skill, and at first glance she was a girl who grew up on horseback! When Xiao Yi saw this scene, he also felt close to her. He rode on the horse that accompanied him back to the city, and the horse was already familiar with Xiao Yi, and before he could get closer, the sound of his nose did not stop! The two of them took a group of men and horses and rushed to the south gate together! The people spontaneously gathered, picked up what they could get their hands on, and went to all places to support! Xiao Yi saw that they were holding all kinds of strange things in their hands, including brooms, hoes, and even cutting boards for chopping vegetables! Xiao Yi thought to himself, if it weren't for the fact that the big leader treats the people like children on weekdays, how could the people sacrifice their lives to help each other so much in this dangerous time! Xiao Yi's team of men and horses hurried over, and the people followed far behind, and also followed this way!

Before he reached the city gate, he heard the sound of killing in front of him, and under the firelight, there was blood! At Xiao Yi's feet, he could already see corpses and bloodstains, Xiao Yi saw that many women were helping to take care of the wounded soldiers, and many of them carried the dead soldiers to one place! Look at the front, but the battle was only more than ten zhang away from the city gate, and the two sides were anxious there, and no one could repel the opponent! Xiao Yi knew in his heart that these Yi people had already attacked the city with great momentum, but they encountered strong resistance, and the two sides exchanged their lives for their lives, and in the end, it was the defender of the city who repelled these siege sites!

Xiao Yi's team immediately joined the fierce battle, but there were too many people in front of them, and they were all masters who were not afraid of death, and Xiao Yi also saw a lot of people mixed in with it, all of them screaming and screaming, and rushed straight ahead! Xiao Yi squeezed for a while, but he couldn't squeeze to the front! However, he could feel that he was slowly moving towards the city gate, which could only show that the other party had a few phases, and it would not be long before they could force them out of the city! Ling'er was beside Xiao Yi, and the two looked at each other and felt relieved!

Ling'er shouted,

"Brothers, kill them back!

Ling'er seems to have some status in this army, and when she calls like this, her morale has increased greatly, and Ling'er said,

"You can't go out of the city to fight the thieves without my orders!"

Of course Xiao Yi knows what she means! The side defending the city, plus the people who can help, adds up to less than half of the number of Yiren troops outside, if you rely on this city defense, you may be able to stabilize it for a while, if you take the initiative to attack, you can only let others slaughter!

Xiao Yi was taller, looked ahead, and exclaimed,

"Ling'er, when they retreated, they unloaded the city gate!"

Ling'er stood up, but she still couldn't see it, but she believed that Xiao Yi wouldn't talk nonsense.

"Xiao Yi, what do you say? If we use soldiers to guard the door, we won't be able to withstand the consumption!"

Xiao B replied to her loudly,

"Let's block the door with rocks and sandbags, we can't get out, and they can't get in!"

After thinking about it for a while, Ling'er made up her mind,

"Okay, let's do it!"

Ling'er retreated and arranged for the soldiers to load the soil and fill the sand! Not long after, Xiao Yi heard someone behind him shouting loudly,

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Xiao Yi looked back and saw that someone had already carried large pieces of sand and soil and the like, and they were crowded around in front of him, and finally squeezed out a road, and then these people rushed forward one by one! Not long after, Xiao Yi saw that at the original city gate, a wall of stone sandbags nearly one person high had been erected! There were a few people lying on the wall, and within two strokes they stabbed out with spears! There was a steady stream of people moving stones from this side, and there were moss on many of the stones, which should have been soaked in the ditch for a long time, and were used to keep out the water on weekdays, and now they were also temporarily recruited!

Xiao Yi finally squeezed to the front, and the stones and sandbags were already stacked high, and they could be sealed in just a few feet! Xiao Yi was overjoyed and helped everyone to carry the stones together! This wall is more than three feet thick, and if outsiders want to dig in, they are afraid that it will take a lot of effort! Seeing that the great work is about to be completed, above the sandstone gate that has not yet been sealed, many arrows are flying in! These arrows touched the top, changed their original direction, and greeted the soldiers and civilians defending the city! There were too many arrows and enough strength, and many people were hit by arrows, and they couldn't help but shout in pain, but the soldiers and civilians defending the city were in chaos! The original momentum disappeared in an instant!

Xiao B shouted loudly,

"Don't panic, don't panic, hurry up and block the top of it, quick, quick!"

Xiao Yi and the other person carried the stone and lifted it upwards with all their might, because it was right next to this gate, the arrow could not shoot anyone, and there was no danger! This big stone blocked a large piece, and the arrow immediately became much less, which restored the confidence of the soldiers and civilians defending the city! Xiao Yi and the others did not stop for a moment, and hurried up their work, filling most of the gap above, and were in full swing, seeing that only a small piece had not been filled, Xiao Yi saw that the black skin of the brave big brother who was with him suddenly had some water stains! The man wiped it with his hand, but then he covered his eyes, knelt on the ground, and shouted! Xiao Yi leaned over to look at him, and his eyes were already red and swollen!

Xiao Yi immediately understood, and shouted loudly,

"Poisonous water, everyone stand back, stand back!"

Most of them listened to his shouts and retreated, but many continued to move on. The poisonous water kept spraying in, staining the people's clothes, and soon seeping in, touching the skin, and making people feel unbearable pain! Several more people were tricked, and the more they scratched, the more eroded skin they were, but they still couldn't help but scratch it with their hands! Xiao Yi pulled the person away, so that the poisonous water could not be sprayed, and then carefully examined, the place where the poisonous water was stained was initially red and swollen, and it didn't take long for it to begin to rot, and the eyes were no longer the same, this poisonous water was really powerful!

Xiao Yi gently supported him and said to him,

"Don't worry, it's going to get better!"

The man swallowed the pain and replied,

"Stay away from me, don't get caught up in this thing!"

He pushed Xiao Yi away, and Xiao Yi saw that there was a lot of stains on his arms, and listened to him again,

"Hurry up and tell people to go away, if you get this thing, there's only one way to die!"

He had a lot of dirt on him, and of course he knew how powerful the poisonous water was! I could only hear his loud cry, and after howling for a while, he stood up with all his strength and shouted into the inside,

"Mother, the child can't stand you!"

After saying that, he carried a bag of sand and soil on his shoulder, and climbed up along the sand and stones, and the poisonous water continued to pour in and sprinkle all over him! He seemed to have lost consciousness, as if he had only been washed by clear water! The bag of sand blocked part of it, and the other half was filled by his own body, so that the poisonous water could no longer be sprayed directly! The man's body trembled a few more times, and he could no longer move!

Xiao Yi's eyes were moist, and he couldn't bear to look at it anymore, he took the sandbags and stones that were sent in a steady stream, and continued to strengthen the city gate! Everyone was very sad in their hearts, but what could they do, most people could survive, and this was already the best ending! Those who were hit by the poisonous water, after struggling for a while, there was no sound, and in the end, no one could survive!

The gate of this city was blocked, and the Yiren who were attacking the city outside couldn't get in for a while, which should have been a very happy thing, but Xiao Yi was not happy at all! He retreated, and slowly walked to the periphery, without looking back, and went straight into the distance.

It didn't take long for Xiao Yi to realize that there was one more person around him, he knew that it was Ling'er, but he just said lightly,

"This kind of taste is really uncomfortable!"

Ling'er Dao,

"Yes, watching the comrades who fought side by side with him die in front of him, no one will be easy!"

Xiao Yidao,

"He died a heroic death, a well-deserved death!"

Ling'er patted Xiaoyi on the shoulder and said,

"Xiao Yi, don't be too sad! The outside siege team has retreated, we have time to consolidate the city defense, who will win and who will lose, it's uncertain!"

Xiao Yi nodded slightly and replied to her,

"I always believe that we can defeat them, but we must not be careless, they are prepared, and they will definitely not give up easily!"

Of course Ling'er knew, and said,

"Xiao Yi, my father wants to meet you!"

Xiao Yi replied to her expressionlessly,

"He's here at the south gate too?"

Ling'er nodded,

"He has been commanding the battle at the head of the city, fortunately Daddy was prepared earlier, otherwise how could he quickly gather a large number of men and horses and drive back the Yi people who attacked the city!"

Xiao Yidao,

"I just want to say something to him!"

Ling'er took Xiao Yi straight to the head of the city, and Ling'er led the way, but no one stopped him! When he went up to the city wall, Xiao Yi recognized Luo Rong at a glance! He was just a person, wearing armor with his back to Xiao Yi and Ling'er, and white cloth was tied to his head and hands. Xiao Yi saw that he had a long sword tied diagonally around his waist, his right hand held the hilt, and the other hand was on the city wall. He spread his legs half a step wide, his body straight, and at this time, he was looking out of the city, without saying a word!

Xiao Yi followed Ling'er to the front, and before he got close, he listened to him,

"Xiao Yi, you're here!"

Xiao Yi replied to him,

"General, I should have come back earlier today, but I couldn't resist going to the sneak attack for a while, wasting precious time!"

Luo Rong didn't look back, still looking into the distance like this,

"You've done well enough! If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to strengthen our defenses earlier, but I'm afraid that the entire Guizhou City would have been occupied by someone at this time! I heard Ling'er say that you have contributed a lot to the guarding of the city gate over there!"

Xiao Yi replied,

"General, don't say that, I just did what I was supposed to do!"

Luo Rong let go of the hilt of the sword with his hand, turned around, looked at Xiao Yi and smiled slightly, and said,

"Is your instinct always that accurate?"

Xiao Yi nodded and said,

"I'm right a few times! Actually, I'm not sure, I'm just thinking about what happens!"

Luo Rong stretched out his hand and pressed Xiao Yi's shoulder, nodding incessantly,

"Good guy, when I saw you for the first time, I thought you were a little different, and I really didn't look away!"

Xiao Yi smiled awkwardly and replied,

"General, do you believe we can hold it?"

Luo Rong Road,

"Of course, if you don't have confidence, it's better to just open the door and surrender!"

Xiao Yidao,

"There is a huge disparity in troops, and the opponent is very powerful, what is your best strategy for retreating from the enemy?"

Luo Rong Road,

"Since we know our own shortcomings, then avoid exposing this deficiency to the other party! Under the current situation, taking the initiative to attack is to hit the stone with an egg, what we have to do now is to defend the city, as long as we defend the city, when the reinforcements come, we will be able to attack inside and outside, and we will be able to hit the hands hard, and capture the thieves!"

Xiao Yidao,

"I came from Liyuan, and it has long been occupied, I think, the way out around this Guizhou City should also be blocked by them! Our news can't get out, even if we go out, it won't be too late to rescue! General, you should also know, if the other party continues to attack the city, it is difficult to say whether it can be defended until dawn!"

Luo Rong didn't reply, he should also know that what Xiao Yi said was true! But at this time, what could he do? Xiao Yi saw that he was silent, and continued,

"In my opinion, tall and strong is our savior!"

Luo Rong looked at Xiao Yi and didn't speak, but looking at his eyes, he also agreed with Xiao Yi's opinion, Gao Daqiang, who went to ask for help, if he successfully avoided the Yi army and found help, if he came at the first time, maybe he could really save everyone! Xiao Yi wanted to say more, but saw Luo Rong's eyes flash, as if he had seen something not very pleasant. Xiao Yi looked back and saw a person, looking at that face, it was not very likable!
