"My lord, it's a spy of the Great Xia Army. When Ren Baqian was still half a day away from Liao Cheng, he had already seen the Great Xia Army's scout horse looking at everyone from a distance from time to time, and only turned his horse's head and left when the distance was close to five or six hundred meters.

"Keep an eye out at all times. Ren Baqian said as he stroked the machine gun hanging on the back of the horned ox.

"Wake up the one who is still asleep and untie the rope for her. ”

Now Ren Baqian began to wonder whether Lin Qiaole was protecting himself or protecting Lin Qiaole himself.

Along the way, Lin Qiaole basically slept on the back of the horned cow with a rope, which seemed to be the most important and happiest thing for her.

Next, everyone raised their vigilance to prevent the Great Xia army from suddenly rushing over and surround everyone.

When there were still a few miles away from Liao City, Ren Baqian could already see the gate of Liao Cheng open, and a group of sheep knights jumped out of Liao City, all the way to meet Ren Baqian's team.

At this time, Ren Baqian could already see the military camp of the Great Xia Army in the distance, just outside the east gate of Liao City.

Yesterday, the reinforcements of the Great Xia Army arrived, as Ren Baqian thought before, only 100,000, and the previous 70,000 troops converged, and once again surrounded the east, west, and north gates of Liao City, and did not care about the people who went south in the city, it seemed that they were trying their best to isolate Tiesuo Pass and Shuncheng from Dayao, but it is difficult to say what kind of idea to fight.

"How's it going in the city?" asked Ren Baqian about the incoming flying horseman.

"Everything works fine. The flying horseman's face was not serious, even if the 170,000 Xia army was under the city, it didn't make them too nervous.

Ren Baqian nodded, looked up at a small red dot on the city tower from afar, and felt a little eager in his heart.

However, before the people reached the city, they heard a cannon fire in the distance, followed by an overwhelming shout of killing.

"They are attacking the city?" Ren Baqian immediately reacted.

When I contacted the empress on the radio in the morning, I hadn't heard the news of the Great Xia army's attack on the city, and it seemed that the Great Xia army was ready now.

"Into town. Ren Baqian glanced up, and the figure on the city wall was gone.

Everyone galloped wildly, and was guarded by a group of bouncing sheep knights.

Although I have seen it many times, although there is already a shout of killing in the distance, in such a grim situation, Ren Baqian still can't help but want to laugh, MD, it's so joyful.

It is estimated that no one who makes a movie dares to make it like this. A group of sturdy masters, as if they came out of the sheep village, sat down to be happy, lazy, and beautiful......

The aura of slaughter disappeared all at once.

The city gate was not closed from beginning to end, and no one came to stop Ren Baqian and the others from beginning to end, and the city gate was slowly closed until everyone entered the city.

Although the siege had been launched from three directions, the people in the city were not panicked.

It's just that many people walked out of their homes and stood on the street, looking in the direction where the shouts of killing came from in the distance, and their faces were fierce.

The defense of the city in the days before the empress came completely stimulated the blood in the hearts of these people, and now there is still the empress in the city, and these people are eager to go to the city to kill the enemy immediately.

After seeing Ren Baqian and his party come in, he took a few more looks, and looked at Ren Baqian in the crowd with a look at the husband chosen by the empress.

The group arrived at the city order mansion in the city.

The city commander is the official responsible for the governance of a city and the surrounding villages.

Dayao can be regarded as a vast and sparsely populated area, with a total of 175 towns, including 93 towns in the area where the remnants of the Southern Hao Kingdom have retreated.

In fact, there are only eighty-two towns of the ancient people, and many of the ancient people living in the plains live around the villages.

Ren Baqian jumped off the back of the horned ox and hurried inside, and when he arrived in the hall, he saw the empress sitting on the chair above, the two of them standing behind, and some generals in leather armor standing below.

"Your Majesty!" Ren Baqian stepped forward to salute.

The empress made an "um" sound in her nose.

"You guys are busy with their own things, Li Qianqiu will go up to the city wall with me to take a look. The empress said lightly, and everyone glanced at Ren Baqian.

Ren Baqian looked up at the one left behind, a two-meter-tall man like an iron tower, covered in bronzed, with a fierce expression, and he looked full of deterrence.

"You will go with me. The empress nodded Ren eight thousand.

"Yes!"

didn't think of anything before Ren Baqian's long-term absence, Xiao Beisheng was newly married, and said hello and followed the empress to the city wall.

"Governor. Li Qianqiu grinned at Ren Baqian, revealing a hideous smile that always made people feel that intimidation far outweighed kindness.

Since the outbreak of the war these days, Ren Baqian has really done a lot of things, including the radio station used by everyone as a chat group, and for the first time everyone knew that there was such an edited contact method, almost all of them looked at it as a treasure.

There are also salt and iron, weapon building, and the previous suggestions of the strong wall Qingye and the militia group, and the importance of Ren Baqian in the minds of the bigwigs of the DPRK and China has skyrocketed.

Li Qianqiu showed kindness to him as soon as they met.

"I've seen Lord Li!" Ren Baqian arched his hand, smiling.

Before the group reached the city wall, they heard a whistling sound in the air, followed by a loud sound of heavy objects smashing against the wall.

When I climbed the city wall and looked out, I saw several catapults two hundred meters away, with two wooden planks on both sides of the catapults to block arrows, and rows of soldiers carrying huge stones to load the catapults.

From time to time, a few bone arrows were fired, and someone fell to the ground with a grunt.

Although the range of the artillery in Great Xia is long, the power is still too small, and the power to deal with the fortified city is not enough, although the distance of this trebuchet is short, but the stones thrown are more damaging to the city wall.

Ren Baqian saw the empress looking into the distance, so he handed over the telescope hanging on his chest in exchange for an appreciative look. When he turned his head, he found that Li Qianqiu was looking into the distance with a telescope that he didn't know where, and he was empty-handed.

A moment later, he took the telescope handed by the empress and looked into the distance.

Behind the catapults were rows of slaughtering columns, the first with silver shields, and the second row of soldiers with a huge box at hand. The next three rows of soldiers all held bows and arrows in their hands, and the soldiers in the back held spears pointing into the air, like a dense forest.

In the distance are a series of barracks, barely in sight, and rows of fences have been erected outside the tents.

After a long time, I put the binoculars down and took a breath, although I had seen the army before, I had never felt so oppressive.

Sure enough, it is the quantitative change that causes the qualitative change, and there seem to be at least thirty or forty thousand people outside.

When I looked through the binoculars just now, I saw that some huge ordnance was being formed outside the opponent's barracks, and it seemed that this catapult was just an appetizer.

After reading it, Li Qianqiu bowed his hand to the empress and said, "Your Majesty, they will wait for us to go out and destroy the equipment." The second row of the Xia army's army formation is the Shenji Battalion, and behind it are the archers, if you want to destroy those catapults, I am afraid that you will have to hurt a lot of people. ”

As the people spoke, the trebuchet threw another round of boulders, and several of them, which weighed almost half a ton, smashed on the city wall, and the whole city wall shook with it, giving people the feeling that the city wall would collapse at any time.

Two others crossed the walls and smashed into the city, instantly shattering several houses close to the walls.

Fortunately, the personnel there had already been evacuated without causing any damage.

The empress stretched out her hand: "Bow here." ”

Immediately someone handed the longbow to the empress's hand, and she bent her bow and shot an arrow, and a wooden beam on the trebuchet was instantly broken, but soon several soldiers took the wood to repair it.

"Your Majesty, at least half of it must be destroyed, or they will be able to repair it soon. Li Qianqiu said.

Then the three of them looked in the other two directions along the city wall, which was similar to this place.

Only in the direction of Nancheng has been attacked without troops.

However, the Great Xia Army in the east and west directions was sprinkled with a large area of thistles near the southern direction, and there was a row of Shenji battalions with crossbows to prevent Da Yao from going out to raid from the south gate.

"What do you think of trebuchets?" asked the empress casually as she was on the ramparts.

"It's a simple matter, Your Majesty, and let them see it in a moment. Ren Baqian immediately asked.

The Empress nodded.

Although Ren Baqian is not omnipotent, many times he can hear the news he wants to hear when he asks him.
