Chapter 483: Our City

The armor was transformed by Xia Xu's rock armor beast, and the spikes that protruded from it could make Xia Xiao feel anywhere it could touch. Therefore, Xia Xu knew that even if his spikes penetrated the body of the man in his arm, he was twisted by his internal organs with his vitality, so he did not hurt the root.

"It's so heroic, it's a pity that it's an enemy army!"

With that, the cultivator twisted his body violently, breaking off the stone spikes, and then turned around and retreated to the Nanshang camp. Xia Xu's speed was not as fast as him, and he didn't choose to follow, but just continued to join the army in a head-to-head confrontation, so as to increase the corpses that were piling up on the ground.

Great Xia was still advancing, and it had already left the range of thirty miles, and it was even ready to approach Fujikawa.

When this report reached the Holy One, he was shocked and wondered, what had happened to his army, how could it be so heroic, and it was a bit extraordinary. After reading the Times, I realized that what he was worried about was losing the country and destroying his father's trust. But these soldiers really don't want to lose their homes. The word "home" is much more sensitive and valued by the soldier than he is by the saint!

Ji Yi's home is not a palace, not a palace, not a huge and cold bedroom, but the homes of the soldiers and the common people are in the city, in the town, in the countryside and fields, just like the Dingyuan general asked on the battlefield.

"General, are you still chasing? There are still ten miles to reach Fujikawa. ”

The meaning in General Dingyuan's words is simple and clear, Fujikawa is the camp of Nanshang, and it is no longer appropriate to chase after it. But Lin Tianyuan glanced at the city, even though he was very tired, he still squinted his eyes and said firmly:

"Chase it! That's our city, there's nothing to be afraid of!"

Orders were given everywhere, and the Nanshang army, which had slowed down, was once again severely damaged. The menacing giant crocodile of Great Xia chased after him and walked dozens of miles in a row, just to tear a few more mouthfuls of flesh from this remnant army. But they didn't expect that the army of the Great Xia Alliance would chase after them. The soldiers in the city didn't expect it, but when they set up their crossbows and drew their bows, the Great Xia army had stopped, and the catapults that had not been used were finally useful.

Both sides shot arrows, but the number of people on the Great Xia side was obviously larger, and the army of Nanshang had been defeated!

Along the way, they abandoned their weapons to survive, but the bows and arrows were picked up and became the stuff that came back to them, slicing through the air and stabbing them in the back of the chest.

Under the sound of arrows, Lin Tian and several generals gathered together and discussed:

"When are you leaving?"

"When the cavalry ran out of arrows, the flints ran out and they went. ”

"Retreat together?"

"The cavalry came first, and opened the way to send the wounded back, and the rest went later. ”

The arrows were fired for a long time, and the arms of the shield soldiers at the front of the team were numb by the arrows, but the confrontation never ended. The catapults smashed the city walls, but they were in a state where they could not take the city and there was no point, so they withdrew when the last arrow was fired.

Xia Xiao and Ah Candle sat on the roof of the carriage shed that was loaded with flint before, looking at the Fujikawa that was gradually moving away, and chatted. Ah Candle, like many soldiers, was happy to have won the battle, but Xia Xiao's face was not good, because it was time to make a decision. Sometimes it takes a long time to think about making a decision, but the final decision only takes a moment to make.

"I'll go find the General, you stay here. ”

Ah Candle nodded dumbly, Xia Xiao hadn't answered her question yet, why did she leave?

Xia Xu didn't know when he came to Ah Candle's side, and his appearance on the horse was extremely chic, so Ah Candle took the initiative to talk to him, but most of them chatted with Xia Xiao, and it was difficult to have novelty!

"General. ”

It happened that his father was also there, and Xia Xiao took the reins of the soldiers on the side, and walked with them after getting on the horse. Just by Xia Xiao's expression, Lin Tian knew what he wanted to say, and when he asked, it was really so.

"You can leave or stay now, because they won't summon Heitai's army overnight, and such a distracting thing will not do the army any good. But this decision still needs to be made by the saints, after all, we retreated to Xiyang City, and the loss was not only the trench of Longgang, but many cities. ”

As soon as he said the word city, Lin Tian's tone became low. The city is home to tens of thousands of families, and when they retreated, they gave it to many people to live in for generations, and it is unknown whether they will be able to recapture it in the future. But what to do depends on the saint, Xia Xiao felt that it was feasible, so he watched a letter of the Times being taken to Xiyang City by carrier pigeons.

Tomorrow we will see the guilt and the wise move, but no one can see through the future direction, and no one can confidently say that they can predict all the future trends of NCB. At this time, whether to let go of the city or not, I don't know whether it is right or wrong, although the saint has agreed, but Lin Tian has always been a little reluctant in his heart.

As a general, when the country is prosperous, it is to publicize the national prestige and raise soldiers. When a country is in decline, it lies in sticking to its territory and resisting the enemy. Lin Tian did not hesitate to resist the enemy, but he gave away the territory in vain, and there was always some unspeakable heartache, like giving away his own children, and it was unknown whether he could meet again in the future.

Xia Jinghong praised Xia Xiao from the bottom of his heart, and the love in his eyes was hot, all of them were proud and proud, so Xia Xiao and Xia Xiao dismounted and walked on the side of the team. Not much different from them was Lin Tian, he walked at the end of the team, leading the horse, seeing that this vast land was about to fall into the hands of the enemy, and his heart was full of reluctance. Lin Tian and Xia Jinghong are different from father and son, the latter talks about their hearts, but he is worried.

There are not many stories about Lin Tian and this land, all of which are related to NCB. He had been to many places in his heyday, but he had never been to this high mountain, but there seemed to be nothing else worth seeing here except the snow-capped mountains and the blue sky and white clouds in the distance. But no matter how bad he is, he doesn't want to give it to the enemy, so it is melancholy and hatred, which makes him look around for a long time.

Although the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty is not as huge as that of the Southern Merchants, there are water towns, sea cities, mountains and plains, and the people of Great Xia have lived in the world for a long time with their cautious temperament, and have adapted to all sides of the world.

Riding a horse and whipping, whether you go today or not, you have to go back to count the number of people first, Lin Tian has a heavy task, and he did not stop when he passed by Xia Jinghong's father and son.

Glancing at Lin Tian's figure, Xia Jinghong sighed:

"If you don't come this time, I'm afraid Daxia's situation will be much more dangerous. ”

"My father has come all the way, why shouldn't I come?"

"Have the Emperor's people looked for you?"

Xia Jinghong smiled, and the sudden change of topic made Xia Xiao shake his head, but this was also what he wanted.

Just like Lin Tian thought before, they all care about the city, and if there are people in the city, people can be healthy. But in the end, these are all decisions to be made by the Holy Beings, and they can think but not interfere with them, because they believe that the good ministers and the Holy Beings will not make wrong decisions, so they are willing to carry out any decision. But about the matter of the imperial army, Xia Jinghong was not so optimistic, he didn't want him to talk to Xia Xiao, the latter asked, and he said:

"The imperial army is full of cultivators, although they are also the guardians of Great Xia, but in order to protect Great Xia, they sometimes do things that go against common sense, and even refute human nature. So I don't want them to look for you, they live in the dark, we live in the light, just don't interfere with each other. ”

"Father, don't worry, if they don't look for me, I will do what they want. ”

Xia Xiao didn't know anything about the imperial army. But what he said was true, he now has the strength to refuse to do what he doesn't want to do. Even for the sake of Great Xia, he will find a method that suits him.

"How does it feel to fight together?"

"It's good, I can help Dad. ”

"The son can be taught, when you go to Xiyang, you should write to your mother, so as not to worry her. ”

"Dad still thinks so much about his mother. ”

"It's fine if you don't write, but if I don't, she'll stay up at night and even cry. ”

The father and mother who have shared weal and woe are in a stable relationship, but Xia Xiao can't speak. Xia Jinghong laughed proudly, not forgetting to pat Xia Xiao on the shoulder.

"Xiao'er, I'll tell you a few words seriously. ”

Xia Xiao looked at his father beside him, he was moderate, but what he could say was still not a serious topic.

"Ah Candle, that girl is still waiting for you, if you don't go, she should cry for a while. ”

"She won't, but Dad, you've been looking around, just looking for her?"

"Her breath is completely hidden and cannot be found through the eyes. ”

As soon as the voice changed, Xia Jinghong once again restrained his handsome spirit, and said purely from his father's point of view:

"Although it's wartime, you shouldn't be greasy together, but you shouldn't come back, so go and take her back to the camp to rest early, the affairs of the army are up to me and your eldest brother, so you don't have to ask. In your mother's words, you can also see that she is a little reluctant to go to the battlefield, but having someone to accompany you like this is a blessing for you to cultivate, don't take it for granted, treat her well. ”

slapped Xia Xiao's buttocks, the movements were casual and kind, and he rode away.

Seeing the eldest brother and himself coming head-on, Xia Xiao couldn't help frowning, what's the matter with the evil smile of the eldest brother? Won't you say anything to Ah Candle that shouldn't be said? Xia Xiao was excited, and he was afraid at first. Sure enough, Ah Candle looked at him with teary eyes, his emotions were complicated, and it took a long time to hold back the tears.

"What's wrong?"

Xia Xiao asked tentatively, but Ah Candle kept talking.

"Thank you. ”

Ah Candle kept repeating these two words, which confused Xia Xiao. He asked for a long time, and it was not until he reached the camp that Ah Candle told him the reason.

This is an extremely gentle thing, Xia Xiao didn't expect that the eldest brother would keep staring at him when he was fighting, and he was so aware of his every move. He had indeed been fighting around Ah Candle, because he couldn't sense Ah Candle's breath, and he would even look at Ah Candle once a while. But the eldest brother can find this, which is enough to prove that his eyes have always been on him. A warm current flowed in his heart, although it was difficult to make him cry, but he looked at the extremely long army, as if he saw the evil face of his eldest brother.

The camp gradually turned from silence to noise, but those who stayed here liked the movement the most. Because the silence of the soldiers in battle frightened them, only the sound of words was natural. From their energetic expressions and mouths, the news of the victory spread throughout the camp, and every logistician heard it, and they were more energetic in their work, and they ran fast in everything. The front line is fighting happily, and their mood is naturally happy.
