Chapter 992 993 [How can I say without clothes]

It's getting late into the night.

The raging and roaring wind rises from the far north, crosses thousands of miles of vast and barren wasteland, crosses the lonely and majestic Jiuli Pass in Daliang, whizzes through the mountains and fields less than two hundred miles away, and descends on the not-so-high

The solid city head of Xing'an City, like those barbarians wearing animal skins and shouting strange words, suddenly and cruelly appeared in the sight of the people of Daliang.

The night blended with the mist, and the bright moon appeared and disappeared behind the black clouds, as if they did not dare to glimpse this bloody and long fight.

For the defenders, they were indeed frightened at first. Facing the taller and stronger barbarians, many of them could not even think of resisting, and subconsciously wanted to sit back and wait for death, or fall to the ground and pretend to be dead to escape this catastrophe.

However, the young man named Xu Mo - most people actually don't know his name, but this is not important at the moment, because the young man used great courage and superb martial arts to defeat the barbarians who were the first to rush into the city.

A wake-up call.

Just as he said, if you don't want to die, you can only pick up the knife.

When there is no way to retreat, no way to avoid, and no room for maneuver or compromise, even the weakest sheep will lower their heads and give the ferocious beast a hard blow with their hard horns.

This is the situation on the city wall.

Especially when many people saw with their own eyes that Xu Mo resolutely chose to die with the powerful barbarian, and saw the frail and thin magistrate Fang raise a knife and pierce the opponent's heart, screaming the words of death with a tearful voice, as if a weak spark came from

Their hearts leaped.

Facing the fierce new wind that hit at the same time as the barbarians, the spark not only did not extinguish, but instead grew rapidly against the strong wind in the solemn night.

From the initial panic and fear to now having the courage to fight the barbarians, the cruel war is tempering everyone.

But everyone is looking north equally.

Xu Mo's most serious injury was the barbarian's three knee strikes. The last kick was just the barbarian's death counterattack and did not aggravate his injury too much. Although this kind of internal injury will be very troublesome in the future, it may be the blood in front of him.

Constantly stimulating his mind allowed him to temporarily forget the physical pain.

"Kill!"

Everyone shouted in unison, and even the iron curtain below the city trembled.

There were many people in his sight, and although he couldn't see their faces clearly in the torches at night, he still recognized some familiar figures.

However, Fang Xun suddenly held his left hand hard, with pleading in his eyes, and shook his head: "No, if I leave the city wall, these soldiers who have been recruited and trained for less than a month will definitely collapse. They only think that I am

Escape for your life. Leave the city defense to you, and I will stand here."

What's more, Lie Jiaomi personally led the army to capture Jiuli Pass, and the other leaders were completely impressed by him.

The man didn't say much. He pushed the woman who was blocking him away and walked out of the house carrying a long stick. He ignored the woman's voice, which ranged from pleading to scolding.

But when he walked out onto the street, he was immediately stunned.

Xu Mo changed color slightly, looked down and saw obvious wounds and blood stains on Fang Xun's abdomen, and said softly: "Master Fu, I will have someone take you down for treatment right away."

The moment he reentered the battle, he turned around and glanced. The middle-aged civil servant under the city tower was standing firmly with his back straight. Although the expression on his face could not be seen clearly, everyone could see that he still had no expression on his face.

leave.

Dalu's ugly face at the moment is not because he feels distressed. Most of the infantry brought today do not actually belong to the Jiankun tribe. They are warriors specially transferred from other tribes by Liejiaomi. On the one hand, the leaders of those tribes are afraid of Liejiaomi's ferocity.

, on the other hand, they were deceived by his words and thought that Xing'an City was vulnerable, so they naturally sent out warriors to plunder it in a hurry.

He had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by Fang Xun, who lowered his voice and said hurriedly: "Brother Xu, I may not be able to hold on for long, I'll leave it to you to defend the city. It took a lot of effort to unite the military morale, maybe we can really repel the barbarians.

Don’t make any noise…”

Some people began to take steps, and some were obviously hesitant, but no matter how fast or slow, people everywhere were moving in the same direction, just like countless trickles in the mountains and valleys that converged together and eventually became a mighty river.

.

Xu Mo called over a slightly injured companion, whispered something in his ear, and asked him to help Fang Xun with a simple bandage. He also called a few soldiers and asked them to protect Fang Xun.

In fact, when the barbarians launched an attack on the city, the people in the city were already in panic, because everyone knew the details of the soldiers guarding the city. How could they expect these ordinary people who were looking for money to fight to the death like regular soldiers? Those wealthy businessmen knew even more about the prefects.

Fang Xun was demoted to Xing'an, and this kind of civil servant probably didn't have the courage to fight.

The battle on the city wall showed a criss-crossing pattern. The defenders still had a numerical advantage, and because of the presence of Xu Mo and Pei Yue's master guards, those particularly difficult barbarians were killed one by one, and they were gradually able to stabilize the city.

Stay in position.

However, before they could be tempered and formed, the thunderous roar of the barbarians was heard again outside the city, and then hundreds of barbarian soldiers were seen climbing up the simple ladders. Judging from their size and speed, these barbarians were obviously

Stronger than the previous batch, who can stop them when most of the defenders are exhausted?

About sixty feet away from the city, hundreds of barbarian cavalry were motionless. The man at the front was holding an iron rod shaped like a mace in his right hand, with a cold expression on his rough face.

"How long have you been guarding?" asked the man in his thirties.

Sparks bloomed from under the city tower, then spread everywhere along the city wall, and were swept into the city by the wind.

But no one expected that even though the city wall seemed to be in danger, the barbarians never broke up the defenders.

With his agility and martial arts skills, Xu Mo ducked and stabbed a barbarian to death. Then he came to the city wall and looked around. Below him was a dense mass of human heads, like a moving iron curtain approaching quickly.

His right hand holding the knife was shaking slightly, and the injury he had just suffered began to explode. The breath in his body surged uncontrollably, so he bit the tip of his tongue to suppress the fishy smell in his throat, raised the steel knife and roared: "Half an hour,

Reinforcements are coming!"

The six hundred foot soldiers in front of the formation roared in unison, and then stepped towards the city wall.

Xu Mo took a deep breath and nodded vigorously.

This man's name is Da Lu, and he is a highly regarded member of the Jiankun Tribe's leader Liejiao Mi. This time he brought 1,400 infantry and 300 cavalry to raid Xing'an City. I thought it would be easy to capture him, but I didn't expect to send nearly 800

Even if people climbed the city, they still could not defeat the defenders on the wall, let alone open the city gates to let the cavalry charge into the city.

The barbarians did not expect that the resistance of the Liang people was so tenacious. Obviously many people had no strength and no fighting experience. One of them could defeat three or four Liang troops. However, as time went by, the balance of power continued to change.

.

Da Lu looked at it for a moment longer, raised his hand and wiped it on his face, and said in a rough voice: "All of you, come forward, kill those Liang people, and open the city gate!"

From north to south, from west to east, it gradually evolved into majestic courage.

After a short rest, Xu Mo raised his hand to take the long knife from Fang Xun's hand, but suddenly found that the middle-aged prefect's face was dripping with sweat and the corners of his mouth were twitching.

If you look down from above, you can see that on the north wall of Xing'an City, the defenders and the barbarians are fighting to the death. Many men appear in the streets and alleys in the city. Some of them are in their prime, some have white hair on their temples, and they are carrying

There are all kinds of things that can't even be called weapons.

Fang Xun pushed him away and said, "Go!"

"It's almost...it's almost two hours, what are you going to do?!" The woman's voice suddenly became sharp.

"Fu Zun——"

In a residence somewhere in the city.

Companions from far and near shouted in unison: "In half an hour, reinforcements are coming!"

Head north!

…

In the house in the west of the city, Chen Xizhi stood on the porch, looking at the firelight in the north, with puzzled emotions in his eyes.

She looked at it quietly and sighed after a long time.
