Chapter 350 Siege
Master Tian looked at it, but did not answer, but urgently ordered the servants around him: "Quickly invite the second and third masters to come here!"
Yan's second son was frightened.
Bei Rong's offensive is not fierce, but the atmosphere is becoming more and more tense, isn't it?
"My lord, is it possible that the person who asked for help had an accident, please send another person!" Yan Lao Er suggested.
Mr. Tian said in a deep voice: "The border defense fell, and the Bei Rong entered the pass. The tigers have a city to rely on. According to the past, several guards will regain the lost ground, gather troops to chase down the soldiers who entered the pass, and come back after clearing the countryside. Come to the aid of this city."
Yan Er Er asked a very critical question.
"Will the frontier defense be recovered first, or the countryside first?"
"Both are important, regardless of priority, just look at the situation, and the general will make a decision." Mr. Tian looked solemn.
"That is to say, the frontier army has not freed up yet..." Yan Laoer asked: "What do you think they got stuck because of?"
"If we have already started to clean up the bandits, why are there so many people gathered outside Huju City?"
Yan Er Er immediately understood what the old man meant.
If the border defense is recaptured, the Beirong in the territory will be cut off, and it will only be turtles in the urn waiting to be caught. Will they gather at Huju?
Certainly only thinking about how to fight back.
Besides, if the frontier army has spare capacity, send someone over to say something, even if you can't get through, you can just shout twice from a distance.
But there is no movement at all, how can we not make people think about the worst.
"My lord, don't we just wait for the frontier army? Why don't we ask for help elsewhere?" Yan Er Er asked.
"How do you know that I don't have one!" Mr. Tian closed his eyes and remained silent.
Until the second master and the third master came in a hurry.
As soon as the three masters got together, they started a heated discussion.
Yan Laoer stood not far away, and after listening to everything, he finally figured out the reason.
The old man thinks that the Beirong’s visitors are not kind this time, and we can’t hope that the letter for help will be sent smoothly. We must be prepared for the messenger to be surrounded and killed. In addition, the frontier guards have not moved for a long time, and the movement of the Beirong outside the city is also abnormal. Getting more and more out of control, he advocated lighting up the beacon tower, and then asking for help.
The other two masters disagreed, saying that the beacon tower should not be lighted easily, once the beacon fire rises, it means that the city of Huju is in danger, and Longxing, Fengming, Yongning, Gufeng, and Changping will all send troops to help.
Especially in Longxing and Fengming, heavy troops rushed to help, which meant that the frontier guards were weak, and it was very likely that they would be taken advantage of.
Huju is close to Xizhou, if there is beacon smoke, Xizhou will also send troops over.
When the soldiers and horses move, the food and grass go first.
There is a tacit agreement between the two governments to help each other. After the bandits retreat, the food and grass will be replenished to others.
When it comes to that, they will not be reluctant, but the second master and the third master have been in Huju longer than the first master, and they think that the Beibei attack this time is not enough to ignite the smoke.
The hidden danger that the courier might be intercepted and killed They agree that they can send more manpower to go out for help.
The old man was in a hurry, and asked the two men to go up to the tower and look down.
Masters two and three are not the ones who say nothing, just go up as soon as they go up.
After reading it, there was another commotion.
Both sides insisted on their own opinions. It was obvious that the Elder Master was alone and alone, and he couldn't quarrel with others.
Yan's second son listened to the anxiety in his heart!
He even forgot that there is such a convenient way to send messages.
But he really understands the thoughts of the second master and the third master. If there is an oolong, the situation is not so critical, and the tigers light up the wolf smoke, and the loss of food and grass is small.
So, you have to be cautious about ordering this thing.
But how to judge the situation outside the city now? !
They were surrounded to death.
While several masters were ecstatically arguing.
Bei Rong, attacking the city!
A loud arrow shot out, and the whistle pierced the night sky.
The two parties inside and outside the city seemed to have been pressed to start the war.
There is also the Beirong God Shooting, which draws the bow to shoot and kill the army on the city. One arrow is more fierce than the other. As the battle line continues to move towards the Huju City, it becomes more and more beneficial to the archers. Both sides come and go, and those who die under the arrow ,more and more.
Bei Rong became ruthless, sacrificing its own casualties, but also to attack Huju.
Huju can't just catch it without a fight.
The frontier army is well-trained. While stacking people up, they carry down the dead comrades, and there is an endless stream of arrows and knives.
The three masters don't have the heart to argue.
"Quick, boil water, canning!"
"Where are the iron filings, send them up together with the kerosene!"
"Call for civilians, come here to defend against the enemy!"
Dangdangdangdangdang...
The gong was struck again, this time it was not to inform Bei Rong that Bei Rong was coming, but to call people to help defend the city.
Many people ran out, and they all knew what they should do.
With the participation of the people in the city, the frontier army resisted Bei Rong's crazy attack and was not defeated.
But everyone's heart is heavy.
Because Beirong's siege has never stopped, as if endless.
The second master and the third master had never seen such a battle before, and finally made up their minds.
Light up the wolf smoke!
…
Xiao'an Village is ready!
Yan Yu didn't care if what she said was outrageous at her age.
Right now, being able to survive is the most important thing.
It is not advisable to concentrate on one or two arrow towers.
It is full of people, and it is very inconvenient to move.
There are only a few people who can stand on the arrow tower, and the rest can't get up even if they have crossbows in their hands, which is a great waste.
The five arrow towers are divided equally, which is the most reasonable.
They can cooperate with each other to form a linkage.
But it won't work if you only rely on these five arrow towers.
Someone must be outside to support them, otherwise once they are surrounded, it will be a dead end.
All the donkey carts and mule carts, including the Yan family’s ox cart, started to move.
Transport food and wood to each arrow tower.
The former is to keep more food to the greatest extent.
The latter is because the bamboo arrows are not enough, so they can only bring their own kitchen knives and sickles at home, and cut them now...
This is also a no-brainer.
They have tried their best to collect the arrows scattered on the ground, but when they think of the number of people who may come from Beirong, they still feel that it is far from enough.
All the planks of the houses were removed, not a single one fell.
People in Xiao’an Village found that the door panels are really easy to use. They can block arrows and knives, and at critical moments, they can even jump over people with the door panels.
If you can't crush him to death, it's the same if you stab him to death.
In the previous battle, they harvested a lot of swords and bows. After distributing them, the embarrassment of Xiao'an Village's shortage of bamboo crossbows was greatly alleviated.
The door panel is in front, the bamboo crossbow and strong bow are in the back, and each team is equipped with at least two knives...
Yan Yu expressed satisfaction, this is currently the strongest configuration in Xiao'an Village.
Typos are corrected first and then corrected~
Many of the plots of Bei Rong’s siege of the city were fabricated by Zhai Zhai, which does not conform to history. Again, this is a fiction, so stop emphasizing what happened in history with Zhai Zhai~ You can’t see it all, hehe~
Also, this war is quite critical. It takes a lot of threads, so I can’t write fast, really~
