Chapter 854: Soldiers Descend on the City

On the upper floor of the east city of Yangwu County, the people who learned of the enemy alarm had quickly climbed the city wall. Standing on the city wall and looking east, seven or eight miles away, fireworks rose on the continuous Bolang sand dunes. From north to south, fires were already burning at the tops of several hills. It was a beacon of alarm, a sign of an enemy attack.

The six beacons were lit together, not because they were worried that they would not see news in the city, but because of the urgency of the enemy situation and the fact that there were many enemy troops. The range controlled by each beacon fire is two miles to the left and right, and six beacon fires are burning at the same time, which means that the incoming enemy is almost across a range of more than ten miles, and the number of people must be overwhelming.

"All the soldiers and horses will immediately go to the city to defend, everyone, hurry." Wei Dakui roared loudly, and the thousand forbidden troops under the city and the six or seven hundred miscellaneous troops of the county town had already climbed the city wall from various stone steps, ready to meet the enemy.

"What's going on? Doesn't that mean there are no enemies here? How many people came? How many bandits came? Guo Mian said in a panic.

"Your Highness, the current enemy situation is unknown, Your Highness, don't panic. His Royal Highness panicked, and the soldiers and people below had no backbone. Your Highness, rest assured, we are ready, they will not be able to break through the city so easily. Lin Jue said in a deep voice.

Guo Mian was shocked and muttered: "What a Guo Kun, you actually lied to me that there is no enemy army in Yangwu, is this to kill me here?" I'll settle accounts with him when I go back. He actually took most of the soldiers and horses to Fengqiu, and this is the place where the bandits attacked. Guo Kun, you wait for me. ”

Lin Jue frowned and said, "Your Highness, it's not good to say these things now. This time it's not anyone's fault, and it's not intentional. I think we've fallen for the bandits' plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. The area around Fengqiu is a feint, a decoy to attract our army, and this is what they really want to attack. This is definitely not deliberate on the part of the little prince. ”

Guo Mian also realized that what he said was a little too much, and hurriedly said, "What now?" Now what? Lin Jue, you have to have an idea. You said before that this is the focus of the bandits' attack, you should know how to rescue it. ”

Lin Jue said: "Your Highness, let's immediately send someone to hurry up and wait for them to ask for help, they will definitely rush to the rescue within three days after they find out that they have been fooled." As soon as the army arrived, the situation eased. ”

"Yes, yes, send someone for help immediately. But...... Three days...... Will we be able to make it through? Guo Mian said.

"Your Highness, the lower officials don't know. It's man-made, and it's all about it. How it turned out, only God knows. Lin Jue said in a deep voice.

While speaking, someone suddenly shouted, "Here it is, here it is." ”

Everyone hurriedly looked into the distance, but saw a long line of several torches rushing out of the rolling hills of Bolangsha. Like magma gushing out of the darkness, several teams with bright torches rushed out of the hill and galloped away, and immediately dispersed into sparks in the sky, covering the ground in just a moment, rolling towards the county seat of Yangwu.

"Oh my God! How many people have to be there? Someone let out an exclamation of amazement, and this voice also represents what many people have to say in their hearts.

The mountains were full of torches, and under each torch was an enemy, and there were tens of thousands of enemies in front of them. There are many more enemies pouring out from between the dunes of Bolang Sand. It is estimated that there are at least twenty or thirty thousand enemies.

"It's over, there are so many bandits, how can this be guarded? Let's hurry up, we can't hold on. Guo Mian's face turned pale and muttered.

Wei Dakui

Licking his lips nervously, he didn't know what to do. Before, he was unhappy because he couldn't participate in the battle with the bandits, but now it's good, the bandits are overwhelmingly delivered to his eyes, but he finds that this is not what he wants.

"This is undoubtedly the main force of the bandits in the five counties of Jingbei. Sure enough, they were going to attack my Yangwu, and this county knew that they would definitely come to such a hand. It's just that there are too many of them, and I'm afraid it's really tricky. Zhao Youji frowned and said softly.

"So what are you waiting for? Wei Dakui, escort this king to leave quickly. This battle can't be fought. Guo Mian stomped his feet and shouted.

Before Wei Dakui could speak, Lin Jue said coldly: "Come, escort His Highness back to the county government to rest, and protect His Highness." Everyone took their positions according to the previous plan and prepared to meet the enemy. ”

Guo Mian was stunned and said, "Lin Jue, you ...... What do you mean? ”

Lin Jue arched his hand and said: "Your Highness, don't forget, you are now a general of counterinsurgency, and if you escape from the battle, the court will be held accountable, and the emperor will be angry." Your Highness, don't worry, if the real city can't be saved, we will desperately escort Your Highness to break through. But before the fight, go first, absolutely not. ”

Guo Mian was stunned, Lin Jue didn't say anything more, and shouted to the guards beside Guo Mian in a deep voice: "If you don't escort His Highness down to the city, what are you waiting for?" ”

Guo Mian frowned, stomped his feet, waved his hand and turned to go down to the city.

Lin Jue looked at Wei Dakui, who was standing aside, and said, "Wei Dutou, what about you?" Do you want to stay in the city and defend the city with us, or do you want to go down to the city to accompany His Royal Highness the King of Jin? ”

Wei Dakui felt the contempt in Lin Jue's words, and suddenly his qi and blood surged upward. Lin Jue and Zhao Youji, two powerless scholars, dared to fight the enemy, but they were not as good as them? Then you don't have to live.

"All brothers, take your place and prepare to meet the enemy." Wei Dakui glared at Lin Jue and shouted loudly.

Lin Jue smiled and said: "That's right, is it possible that we who are soldiers in Da Zhou don't fight, but we civilian officials can't resist the enemy?" Isn't that a big joke? ”

Lin Jue's behavior greatly stabilized morale and calmed everyone's panic. Sometimes, when everyone is gone, someone needs to step up and take the lead. With the backbone, there will be a lot less tension and fear. But often there are very few people who stand up, and those who can stand up are basically extraordinary people. When it counts, the gold shines. Lin Jue's composure in the face of the situation at this moment greatly boosted morale. The soldiers took their positions one after another according to the previous deployment, nervously watching the tide of fiery red torches that were sweeping under the city, their knives unsheathed, their arrows wound, waiting for orders.

Under the city, the overwhelming Qingjiao cult members finally rushed hundreds of steps away. The leader was Meng Xiang, the great protector of the Qingjiao Tianlong, and it was he who rushed to the five counties of Jingbei to gather the congregation to carry out the important mission of seizing Yangwu County on the orders of Haidongqing. Time was also extremely short for Meng Xiang, and after he arrived at the five counties, he first needed to gather the cultists from each county before he could launch an attack on Yangwu County. Before he had gathered his congregation in the city, he had already received the news that 10,000 forbidden troops had crossed the river to the north.

Meng Xiang knew in his heart that even if he gathered all the sect members of the five counties to form a team of tens of thousands of people, it would definitely not be an elite opponent of the 10,000 forbidden army. Meng Xiang knew the fighting power of the sect members. So Meng Xiang immediately responded. Before coming, Hai Dongqing had taught him face-to-face, and Meng Xiang ordered Xu De, the master of the altar, to divide the altar in Dongming according to Hai Dongqing's idea

Liang immediately led the sect members of his county to deliberately approach Fengqiu to attract the attention of the 10,000 officers and soldiers who were rushing to Yangwu County.

And it worked. When the news of the arrival of the forbidden army in Fengqiu reached Yucheng, Meng Xiang burst into laughter. At that moment, he led tens of thousands of cultists from Changheng County, Weicheng and Huaxian County to rush to Yucheng, and coerced a large number of dazed ordinary sectarians to Yangwu County. The team numbered 26,000. With such a large team, facing the poor defense force of less than 1,000 people in Yangwu County, Meng Xiang knew that this must be the end of being captured.

Torch hunting under the city, all dressed in black robes, the bandit team was darker than the night sky, shrouded in the ground seven or eight miles below the city. Meng Xiang rode a horse and slowly walked out of the sect, rode up the slope outside the city, and came to stand a hundred steps away from the city.

"Is Zhao Youji, the county magistrate of Yangwu County, here? Come out and speak. Meng Xiang lifted his black robe hood and shouted at the city.

Zhao Youji glanced at Lin Jue, and Lin Jue said with a smile: "It doesn't hurt for Zhao County to listen to him say a few words." I guess he's trying to scare you into surrendering. ”

Zhao Youji smiled, appeared between the battlements of the city tower, and shouted coldly down: "Yangwu County ordered Zhao Youji to be here, who are you?" ”

Meng Xiang laughed and said, "Zhao County Order, why bother asking many times? You know who we are. I am the chief Tianlong Protector Meng Xiang under the seat of the Qing Sect, and I led my Holy Sect Heavenly Soldiers here today, Zhao County Order, if you know the times, you will open the city and surrender. This apologetic assures you that you will not touch a single hair of your family and that you will be safe. And the people of the city did not commit any crimes. If not, your whole family will be killed after the city is broken, and your bones will be scattered. and all those who resisted in the city were killed. My Qingjiao has always been merciless to the evil demons, if you don't believe it, you can ask the people who fled from the city. A few days ago, my Qingjiao washed the city of Yin with blood and killed thousands of evil demons, you should know. You know where the confrontation ends, and I advise you to take advantage of it. ”

The night wind sent Meng Xiang's words to the city, and everyone could feel a chill on their backs when they listened to Meng Xiang's words. The news of the slaughter of the city had already spread in the city. That night, the Qingjiao uprising, and the county commander of the king of Yucheng resisted desperately with a small number of people. Many people in the city also spontaneously joined the resistance to the Qingjiao. But in the end, it still failed to save the fate of the capture of the city. Later, the Qingjiao bandits carried out a massacre in retaliation for the resistance of the common people. There were less than 15,000 people in Xiaoxiao City, and more than 2,000 people were killed. That night was bloodied and tragic. Now that the other party has confirmed this matter, and threatened to do this to the people of Yangwu, how can it not make people tremble.

"Hahaha." Zhao Youji looked up to the sky and laughed, and shouted: "Who should I be, it turned out to be a group of cult thieves." What bullshit? A bunch of cultists. You are rebellious, you have rebelled, and the imperial army has been sent out to encircle and suppress, and you still don't know how to repent. If you don't wait for you, you will be exterminated by the imperial court, and you dare to come to my Yangwu County to spread wild. The court has already issued an edict that it is understandable for cult members to be bewitched by it, but if they continue to help and abuse them, they will never be forgiven. If you rein in the precipice at this moment, there is still a glimmer of survival, and if you continue to follow the cult to bring disaster to the country and the people, you will definitely die. Are you going to persuade the county to surrender? It is you who should surrender. ”

"Presumptuous! You dare to slander my Holy Religion? The first person to die after the city is destroyed is you. Meng Xiang shouted and scolded: "And because of your offense, after the city is broken, we will wash Yangwu County in blood, and kill a chicken and dog." ”
