Chapter 172: The Battlefield of All Eyes
Chapter 173
Qingzhou, Tianyi City.
The sky is full of water, this place is adjacent to the sea and the big river, the fishing and shipping industry are very developed, and because it is far away from the border, it is not like the bitter cold land of Youzhou that is often harassed by the Rong people.
But when Fang Boshan arrived here, he was far away from the Rong tribe, but it was still difficult to be happy.
The city lord of Tianyi City and him are old acquaintances, Tianyi City Fallen Leaf City is very close to each other, and the two sides also have a lot of business contacts, and the relationship is usually not bad. This time, Fang Boshan fled here, just to defect to the other party, and when the Rong clan had killed enough and robbed enough, he would go back and be his own city lord.
But after a few days, the feeling was not very pleasant.
The other party also did his best to be a landlord, invited himself to eat a few meals, and said in the banquet: Your brother came to me, naturally keep you safe, we have a big business here, and you have one more mouth. Of course, there is a big family and a big business, and there are hundreds of people who care about what you want to eat as soon as you open your eyes, and you will definitely understand this kind of difficulty, brother.
I understand, what does Fang Boshan not understand, since he came to defect, how can he not give any benefit to the other party.
One ingot of gold today, one ingot of silver tomorrow, Mrs. Pearl and Jade must also like it, take it, take it......
Dude, I'm so embarrassed, but to be honest, your little nephew still wants a sword, and I heard that my brother has a sword......
When he came to Tianyi City for refuge, Fang Boshan brought a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, but when he arrived here, he couldn't help but wonder, is the family property he brought still his own......
In Fallen Leaf City, he is above 10,000 people under one person, and he doesn't have to look at anyone except the King of Youzhou. And when I get here, I and my family can only live in a small courtyard, and the food and clothing can naturally not be compared with the Fallen Leaf City, the key is that you have to look at the faces of others when you go there, even if the other party is just a maid servant, this feeling is ...... It made Fang Boshan a little unhappy.
"City Lord, City Lord......"
Qiao Ye ran in from outside the courtyard.
"Shhh ”
"Castle Lord...... There's no need to be so careful, right?"
"It's better to be careful, how are things going for me to let you ask?"
"I asked the people who came from Youzhou, and before they left, the Rong tribe had not been killed. ”
"Before they could kill them, they robbed Black Rock City and ran away. Fang Boshan pondered, if this is the case, he will hurry back, and there is no need to send people under the fence and eat people's eyes.
"City Lord, do you think it will be Cheng Dalei who blocked the Rong clan?"
Fang Boshan glanced at him: "Didn't you wake up in the morning, with a few bandits can stop the Rong clan, that's the Northern Barbarian Department!"
"Since the Rong clan has broken Black Rock City, there is absolutely no reason not to continue the southern invasion. But after so much time, they haven't killed Fallen Leaf City, perhaps, it was really Cheng Dalei who blocked the Rong clan. ”
Fang Boshan fell into thought, when all possibilities were ruled out, the most unlikely became the truth.
But can a bandit really be able to stop tens of thousands of Northern Barbarian Iron Horsemen?
"Check again, explore again!" Fang Boshan said: "Find out the movement of Qingniu Mountain!"
"Yes!"
......
Youzhou City, above the city.
"Prepare more crossbows and bows, if you want to defend the city, bows and arrows are indispensable. ”
Yang Long stopped and put on his armor, walked briskly on the city wall, and inspected his city.
"The craftsmen of the city have been made overnight, and within a month, they will be able to make 100,000 arrows. Li Shanyan followed closely behind him.
"January, will the Northern Barbarian Department give me a month, hurry, hurry!
Yang Long stopped walking briskly, and stopped when he walked to a soldier, who was still very young and had a childish look on his face.
Yang Long stopped and looked him up and down, patting the dust off his hat.
"How old are you this year?"
"Your Majesty, Sixteen!"
"Okay, good!" Yang Long stopped and patted him on the shoulder: "It's a good man, it's going to be a war, are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!" the soldier straightened his chest.
"Haha, I'm scared, how can you not be afraid. Yang Long stopped smiling, and suddenly said seriously: "Defend the family and defend the country, don't you do it if you're afraid!" I'm afraid with you, when the big war comes, this king will kill the enemy with you!"
The soldier stood straight, his body trembling with excitement.
Yang Long stopped patting him on the shoulder and left with his strategists and generals.
Until Yang Long stopped walking away, the soldiers were still so excited that their faces were flushed.
"Hey, that's the King of Youzhou! I didn't expect him to talk to Xiao Wei. ”
"Our King of Youzhou is a good person, I heard that he was the one who drove away the Rong clan back then!"
"You can't go wrong with him!"
Some soldiers were talking, and at this moment, Yang Longzhu had already walked away. He really hasn't had a good rest in the past few days, and has been checking the city defenses.
When the war came, he had to be cautious, although the Rong people were terrible, but the Rong people were also bullying the weak and afraid of the hard. And Youzhou City is the strongest city in the entire Youzhou, as long as they know that it is difficult to fight, they will retreat. Anyway, there are so many cities in Youzhou, they don't want to rob somewhere, they don't necessarily want to rob Youzhou City, which is the most difficult to fight.
"What are so many people doing down there?" Yang Long stopped at the city gate and looked down.
"They are all refugees from all over the world who want to take refuge in the city. ”
"Drive them away, what if there are bandits who take the opportunity to sneak in!" Yang Long stopped.
"Men have been sent to rush over, but they are determined to enter the city. ”
"If you can't drive away, kill you, do you still need me to teach you such a simple truth!" Yang Long stopped and snorted coldly.
"Report!"
A scout climbed up to the top of the city and knelt down in front of Yang Longzhu: "Your Majesty, I have already inquired, and the Rong clan has not yet passed Qingniu Mountain!"
"Not yet. Yang Long stopped frowning, it shouldn't be calculated according to time, after all, the marching speed of the Rong clan is still quite fast.
"What about those bandits in Qingniu Mountain, where did they flee?"
"I didn't see them coming out of Qingniu Mountain. ”
"Huh!" Yang Long stopped frowning, he subconsciously remembered Cheng Dalei's way of blocking the road, could it be that this fool really wanted to block the Rong clan.
"Check again, explore again! Find out the situation in Qingniu Mountain!"
"Yes!"
Qingniu Mountain is the last dangerous place in Youzhou, and Youzhou is the last line of defense in the north of the empire. If Qingniu Mountain is broken, then Youzhou has no danger to defend, and if Youzhou is broken, the Rong people can drive straight in, and Jizhou, Qingzhou, and even Jingzhou are all in danger.
In the territory shrouded in fear, everyone knows that the Rong people are coming on a large scale, and whether the events of thirty years ago will be repeated, everyone is beating drums in their hearts.
Like Yang Longzhu, many people sent scouts to sneak into Qingniu Mountain, and invisibly, countless pairs of eyes rested here: city lords from all over the world, bandits who were unable to flee for their lives, and wealthy families who missed the little industry at home......
The little-known Qingniu Mountain has never been as much of a spotlight as it is today.
And Cheng Dalei didn't know anything about these things, he was busy sharpening his knife.
