Jin Yuan City is not a big city in Great Xia, but it also has a population of tens of thousands.

It was morning, and it was a little cool in the early morning of May. Dozens of people sent a long queue in front of the gate, and they were able to enter only after paying the entrance fee.

There are farmers who want to go into the city with the vegetables they grow, there are hunters who bring mountain treasures, and there are a few scholars who wear green shirts and long swords, and look like scholars who go out to travel.

"Earth dragon turned over?" someone shouted loudly when he felt the tremor under his feet.

Everyone looked panicked and wanted to run into the clearing. As long as the ground dragon rolls over, as long as it is not too serious, as long as it is in an open place, it can ensure safety.

You must know that there was just a geosaurus rollover here more than ten years ago, and thousands of people were buried in the collapsed houses in the middle of the night.

The people here still remember it vividly.

"Don't panic, it's cavalry!" said a more knowledgeable scholar with a smile.

"Ordinary people can't see the cavalry of the brigade, and it's normal to have this misunderstanding. Another scholar patted him on the shoulder and said.

"It's not as good as the two brothers, and to be honest, I haven't seen a brigade of cavalry. If it weren't for the two brothers who spoke, I'm afraid I would have thought it was the earth dragon turning over!" A thinner scholar arched his hand.

"How can there be cavalry here at this time?" the first scholar wondered, his name was Li Mengyuan, he was quite famous in his hometown, and his uncle was even an official to the fifth rank lieutenant.

"That's the court's business. I guess I'm going to the south!" the thin scholar was clearly not interested in this.

"Don't say that, national affairs are world affairs, and world affairs have nothing to do with us. Another day into the court, you have to pay attention to everything. Li Mengyuan admonished.

"That's what my brother said. Taught. The thin scholar arched his hand, his name was Yao Zhengyan.

A few people turned their heads to look, and a black line could already be seen on the horizon in the distance, and a long earth dragon rose from behind.

"I really didn't expect that Wu Shenghou would be defeated. "Three scholars, in addition to Li Mengyuan and Yao Zhengyan, there is also a person named Xu Pingzhi, and it is this person who sighs.

"I really didn't expect it. The imperial court has been preparing for so many years, and the army of 700,000 and countless grains and grass have all been put into flowing water. Li Mengyuan shook his head and said.

"Are those Da Yao people really like the legends?" Yao Zhengyan asked, now that Da Xia has lost the battle, the streets and alleys will spread the gods of Da Yao.

In the mouths of the people, Dayao people wore leather skirts and shirtless, and let out a savage howl when fighting, and an ordinary soldier was eight feet tall, and he could hold a stick of several hundred catties in both hands, and he could fly a person with a stick.

"Have you heard about it too?" Li Mengyuan laughed first, he had also heard this kind of rumor.

"It's not as exaggerated, but it's really powerful. Da Yao's ordinary soldiers have the strength of human wheels, and they can all be squad leaders in our place. Even ordinary people can reach the human wheel. Fortunately, there are not many of them, and the entire Dayao has less than 100,000 troops. In addition, the officials are vulgar, do not understand military affairs, and do not understand ordnance. Therefore, it has always been a couple. Li Mengyuan explained.

At this time, the transmission of information was not developed, and most of it was false, and ordinary people knew very little about Dayao.

There are military generals in his family, and he knows more about Da Yao.

"That's pretty good, too. Yao Zhengyan thought for a while. He still knows the strength of the human wheel. An ordinary human wheel martial artist can eat anywhere.

The Great Xia military system has ten people for one fire and five fires for one team. A squad leader is in charge of fifty people.

As long as a person who joins the army, he can be in charge of at least fifty people.

From this, you can see the status of the human wheel martial artist in Great Xia.

The other party turned out that the common people are all human wheel martial artists, which is a bit exaggerated.

"Do they eat people?" Yao Zhengyan asked again, many people in the streets and alleys swore that the barbarians in the south ate people, he had been curious about this for a long time, did there really be a cannibal? Although the people of Dayao were barbaric and backward, they were also human beings.

Hearing this, Li Mengyuan also frowned, thought for a while, and said, "I don't know about this, but I think that it may not be without a reason." ”

Just when a few people were chatting, an exclamation suddenly sounded at the head of the city: "It's Da Yaoren, close the city gate, close the city gate quickly." ”

At the same time, the sound of drums sounded at the head of the city and passed towards the city.

"Da Yaoren?" The three scholars were all startled, turned their heads and looked in the direction where the cavalry were coming, and doubts appeared in their minds, this is the hinterland of Great Xia, how did Da Yaoren come here? Could it be that the border pass was lost?

Even if the border pass is lost, it can't be hit so quickly, right?

And near them were the anxious shouts of others: "Let us in!"

After a few moments, the gates slowly closed.

Li Mengyuan pulled a defender who was running down from the city wall and asked, "How many people are here?"

The defender was already anxious, but after being pulled by someone, he didn't shake off twice in a row, and found that the opponent had a lot of strength. Seeing that he was still a scholar, he said, "I don't know." The people of the original military station were all transferred, and now there are 1,000 people in the city. ”

When Li Mengyuan heard this, he immediately let go of his hand.

"It's over!" Li Mengyuan's face turned pale.

The other two also heard it clearly, and their faces changed miserably.

"Judging by the dust raised by the cavalry in the distance, there were at least two or three thousand people. Moreover, Da Yao's soldiers are at least human wheels, like the most elite flying horses, and only ground wheels can enter. A thousand people can't hold it at all. Li Mengyuan muttered to himself.

When Great Xia attacked southward before, most of the soldiers in the country were transferred, and there would be nothing wrong under normal circumstances. After all, there were still some defenders left in each city.

But now that Da Yao has arrived, the defense line formed by these defenders is too weak, and it is almost torn apart.

"Who is talking nonsense, and if you bewitch the crowd again, I will kill you first!" a person not far away scolded angrily.

Li Mengyuan looked up and found that the other party was dressed as a captain. straightened his mind and apologized: "I'm sorry, I lost my mind for a while." ”

Although his face was pale, he barely managed to compose.

"What now?" the other two looked at him.

"Find a place to hide first, and don't stay outside now that the army is in chaos. Li Mengyuan hurriedly pulled the two people to the city.

Now the city is also in chaos.

When I heard that the Dayao people were coming, there were the anxious shouts of adults, the cries of children, and the soldiers galloping through the city on horseback, constantly shouting, "Get out of the way!"

"Is it really impossible to hold on?" Xu Pingzhi said in a low voice.

"It's difficult!" Li Mengyuan shook his head.

"But it's not that there is no chance, there should be a lot of masters of the martial arts sect in the city, if they are all gathered together, it may be of some effect. ”

Li Mengyuan knew that even this hope was slim.

But that's the only chance.

If it is a confrontation between the two armies, then there is no chance at all.

But if you defend the city, they can still play a role somewhat.

If you are lucky, Da Yao people may move to other cities after discovering that Golden Jade City is not easy to gnaw.

"Those Dayao people shouldn't have come from the border pass, they may have come from the Lianyin Mountain Range. They can't have siege equipment, how can they break through the city walls?" Xu Pingzhi asked.

"So there is still a glimmer of opportunity, it depends on whether those masters of the Jianghu sect can stop the masters of the other party rushing into the city and opening the city gate. Li Mengyuan explained.

You must know that the current city gate is generally a palm-thick wooden board with two layers of iron plates, which is to prevent masters from breaking the city gate.

If there is no siege equipment like the ancient people, there is only one way to break the city, and that is for the master to climb over the city wall and come in to open the city gate.
