Fengcheng was formerly known as Chengde and Quyang, and it was not a famous city fortress, far from being able to compare with Hefei not far from its south, and even Xiaoyaojin near Shishui was much louder.

But if you don't have fame, you don't have to rush everywhere, and it's not necessarily a blessing, especially in this troubled world. No matter how majestic the city is, there is a day when it is destroyed by the war, when the famous city of Hefei near the bank is close to ruins, and Fengcheng, an inconspicuous small city, can still break the city and survive alone, it is also a strange thing.

Although Fengcheng has the name of a city, from a distance, it really does not have the appearance of a city. The east of this city leans on the Gaoling Mountains, which is transparent on three sides, but it is almost idlely visible on the plain, and there are a large number of shanty villages. It is also inaccurate to say that it is piled up, because there is no order at all, and the shacks of those villages are high and low, and they are continuous, almost submerging the city.

Beyond this settlement is an inconspicuous hill overgrown with weeds, with occasional twisted tree trunks poking out.

The high post was hit one by one holes, from a distance it looks like a huge beehive, close to see, these holes are dug very deep one by one, some have been flooded by wild grass, some are turned out of the new soil, and in the new soil turned out, there are many forest white bone stubble, pointing out that this high hill was originally a mass grave. Although it is difficult to compare with the lofty mountains, if it is all built with human lives, I don't know how many souls in this radius cannot be lost.

Under the high post is a small river that is not wide, on both sides of the river is the beach silt washed out, from time to time there are figures in and out of the beach silt and reeds, these people have their mouths bulging as if they are stuffed with things, come close to see, nothing more than miscellaneous fish, reed buds, but even this poor belly thing, do not dare to let people see, once they get their hands on it, they immediately stuff it into their mouths.

Not far from the riverbank was a dirt road, and as soon as the sound of horses' hooves sounded faintly on the dirt road, the people who were wandering to the left were trembling with fright, and rushed into several small fields, bending down to pick out the seedlings among the barnyard grass and protect them, and pull out the weeds near the left.

Sometimes the sound of horses' hooves passed by in the distance, but sometimes there were real knights galloping by, and at this time, the people who toiled in the fields buried their heads and faces in the grass, and did not dare to look at them. If you are lucky, those knights will not be able to gallop, but if you are unlucky, a few unlucky people will be crucified to Tanaka by flying feathered arrows. The others around them also had to hope that the corpse would not fall too much, and if it overwhelmed too many seedlings, the people around them would also suffer!

From a distance, the shack area around Fengcheng almost surrounds the city, but it will be found that there is still a road for traffic when it is closer, and the road is not narrow, and the three horses gallop side by side are calm. The road was as smooth as an iron wheel, with few undulations, but the color of the earth was much deeper than elsewhere.

Recently, many homeless people have been driven here between the left and the countryside, and well-meaning old residents will point to the road and teach the newcomers that they should not set foot on that road at any time or anything, otherwise they may be trampled to death on the road at any time!

The road leads to the city gates. The shacks were chaotic elsewhere, but here, there was not the slightest debris that dared to go beyond a kilometer. Even so, the rammed walls have many collapses, and there are many holes carved out by arrows and sharp weapons. As soon as any of the walls collapsed, the people in that direction suffered, for arrows would continue to be shot out of the city through the breach, and would continue until the band was repaired.

Under the bell tower of the city gate, there is a piece of wooden inscription, which is completely illegible in the sun and rain. Of course, even if the handwriting is still intact, there are still very few people who can read it. But even so, the content on the list is still spread by word of mouth outside the city, forming an iron law: every household is hidden, that is, the door is full!

Compared with the chaos outside the city, the city also seems to be somewhat organized, several streets in the southeast and northwest divide the city into several areas, there is a two-zhang wide canal in the middle to separate the north and south, and two driftwood suspension bridges on the north bank each have an arrow tower towering on the east and west, revealing a hideous.

To the east of the city was the original seat of the county, but now it has been converted into a horse pen, in which horses neigh. Connected to the horse pen are several huge barns, in addition to grain and grass, there are also bamboo, wood, iron and stone and other materials. There are often hundreds of soldiers roaming here, and those who approach without permission will be killed!

The second half of the entire city is a huge barracks, and the big tent in the center of the barracks is where Huang Quan, the town general of Kahu, is located.

Huang Quan is about 30 years old, not tall, stocky, slightly dark, his eyes are slightly blue, and his beard is yellowish and slightly curly. At this time, he was not wearing armor, his thin shirt was wrapped horizontally around his body, and he was sitting in the center of the big tent, like an iron lump that had not been deeply burned, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and there was a fierce aura between his eyes.

"Liyang thieves are attacking me, don't you know?"

Huang Quan sneered at the corners of his mouth, his eyes flashed with blue light, and he was cruising through the tent. Whenever his eyes swept by, everyone present adjusted their sitting postures unnaturally.

"I was ordered to come here in this poor country to wait for you to defend the side. In the past years, they have also helped each other and finally ensured that this place is not harmed by military disasters. This time the offender, the thief's Yu Shuyu, how to deal with the enemy, have you all taught me? ”

Seeing that these people present were all silent, Huang Quan's flesh trembled slightly, his stubby fingers had already slapped on the case, and his tone turned cold: "I forgot, you all have lofty ambitions, and you can't bear to join my soldiers, this time the thief should be happy, right?" ”

When he said this, the expressions of everyone in the audience changed again, and then one of the people in the banquet said: "Uncle Yu is here to attack this time, the army has been stored for a long time, and the poor villagers are widowed, so he may not be able to be a ...... If you want to retreat for the time being......"

"Retreat? Fengcheng is close to the left, open and flat, where should I avoid? ”

Huang Quan sneered, and then sneered: "Dong Gong's words remind me of the beginning of the year when my department went out to suppress the thieves, passing by your township, the village is high and deep, it is indeed a scenic spot!" Why don't you go home and make a little repairs, and our department will be relocated immediately? By the way, you can also protect your family business for Dong Gong, and it is difficult for thieves to bully. ”

Before he finished speaking, a young man with a white face and short beard next to him had already said with a smile: "Retreat without a fight, Dong Gong's words are a bit heart-wrenching!" Ming Gong is here to take care of the countryside for us and other villagers, and if there are foreign enemies, we should reject them side by side. If the real strong master plunders the realm, who can be safe? ”

After finishing speaking, the young man bowed slightly to Huang Quan, and his demeanor was not lacking in greeting, and Huang Quan replied with a slight bow, which made the young man's eyebrows open and he had a long aftertaste.

"It's a rare gathering today, and I'm not lying. You may think that my lonely master is hanging out, and I can't hold it for a long time, and the thieves will have to retreat and return to the country when they come to attack......"

When Huang Quan said this, he saw that a few people at the table wanted to open their mouths to defend themselves, and even raised their arms: "Don't be in a hurry to defend yourself, my town has been here for a long time, and I know why you treat me." The southern thieves came to attack, it was nothing more than the Chaohu Lake waterway, as long as the three thousand brave soldiers were in Shikou, it would be difficult for the thieves to cross! The poor and tired teacher, trying to retire me? I am ordered by the king of Zhongshan to guard this wasteland, so that I can abandon it lightly when the heroes advance and break through the thieves who fled and lost the country! ”

"Of course, if I want to be a thief, I still need the help of the villagers. Today's banquet to see you, just to inform you, recently I will move to attack the thief, for you and others to guard the township and protect the land, all families want people to help me! So they took three days, three hundred soldiers, and five hundred grains, and they were all placed in front of the camp to obey orders. As soon as this limit is over, the He family is absent, and I will knock on the door in person! ”

Speaking of this, Huang Quan's horizontal flesh trembled more frequently, and his tone became more gloomy: "If I find out, which family not only thinks of the countryside, but wants to befriend the southern thieves, I will call on the brave and righteous people in the countryside to break the house and eat it!" If there is no objection, then go home and call, three days, three days later, here and now! If you don't have armor food, then get ready to hang on the beam! ”

Hearing these awe-inspiring words, everyone's expressions became even more bitter, even if someone wanted to argue, but seeing Huang Quan's fierce face, he suddenly lost his courage and could only withdraw in despair.

Huang Quan watched these township sect elders leave during the banquet, and the sneer on the corner of his mouth was even better. What are the ideas of these people, how can he not know that in the past, there were many prevarications, and they each closed their doors and refused to leave. However, this time he was summoned to come, just to see if he had the confidence to fight in the face of strong enemy pressure, and then consider where to go.

However, whether he fights or flees, how can these villagers make a decision? These people think that they are alone and have no successors, so they dare not fight? But whether he fights or flees, he still has time to deal with it calmly, enough to break through these township sects! No matter how strong Yu Yi's army is, it will not be able to suppress the realm after ten days.

But is it a fight or a flight?

Thinking of this problem, Huang Quan himself really couldn't make up his mind, to be honest, if Hefei Jiancheng was still there, he was really not afraid of a war, although there were many thieves in the south, but he was also confident that the city would be broken. But now, there is no danger to defend at all, the thieves have not yet arrived, the countryside is already in turmoil, and there is no reason to hold on.

"Cheng thief should die, sacrifice women to flatter, so that the king will be cut off from the old man! If you can return to Ye, you will definitely vent your anger with this thief! ”

Thinking of this, Huang Quan was already hateful. He never felt the need to defend Hefei, and the reason why he was sent to this remote place was simply because he got closer to the King of Zhongshan. Moreover, Cheng Thief put himself in danger, not to mention, Peng Biao, who was sitting in Huainan in the rear, was Shi Cong's old department, and he was not on good terms with the King of Zhongshan, so he deliberately restrained his subordinates, put on a posture of rejection, and always had bad intentions towards himself, making his situation even more unfavorable.

Thinking of Shi Cong, Huang Quan hated it even more. He and this thief were originally the fake sons of the king of heaven, but when they surrounded and suppressed the remnants of the Liu family, this thief deliberately led troops without help, resulting in his own defeat.

If he abandoned the town and fled like this, maybe this was exactly what Peng Biao hoped for, and he could take this opportunity to get rid of him. There is no way to win, there is no way to protect his life, and in the face of such a dilemma, Huang Quan is really at a loss.

Just as he was hesitating, the soldiers suddenly came to report to Qin Su and asked to see him. Huang Quan is now bored, even if he wants to retreat, but his heart suddenly moves, this Qin Su has always had a lot of tricks, listening to him may help the current dilemma. Even if he has nothing to do, this slave is not lacking in fun and despicable, and seeing it can be regarded as a relief for boredom.
