Ran Liang and others immediately grabbed their weapons and climbed over the wall towards the direction of the enemy's attack. In a moment, the entire courtyard was deserted, and no one paid attention to Yun Jing. He was left alone in the cold wind, speechless.
right.
This is your home. What's wrong with climbing over the wall and leaving?
Shaking his head, Yunjing looked around, then walked towards the corner, where there was a row of weapon racks. He picked through it and chose a long sword that was a bit handy. The sword was not a good sword, but it was enough.
Next, he will go into battle to kill the enemy. How can he do it without weapons?
After a slight delay, he took the long sword, put the oil-paper umbrella on his back, and then went out and quickly walked towards the battlefield, not forgetting to close the door of Ran Liang's house so that no one would come here to visit after everyone left.
Without closing the door, they were killing the enemy on the front line, but their own people had their homes stolen. What a big deal...
The reason why he went to the battlefield with an umbrella was that Yun Jing brought it from home. He didn't want to lose it for no reason. It was worth dozens of copper coins. How many baskets did his grandfather have to weave?
Although he has some skills, Yunjing has never experienced a real war, so he is not afraid. He always has a feeling of enthusiasm, so he uses these trivial things to relax his mood.
War is not a child's play. No one is born to adapt to such a scene, and Yunjing is no exception. There has to be a process.
At this time, Sitong Town was in chaos. Police officers and soldiers were running around everywhere, shouting and shouting. The residents of the town were screaming and everyone was in danger. All the shops that were open before were closed.
He closed the doors and windows and hid in his house shivering.
As for the refugees on the street, they can only huddle in the corner in despair and helplessness. They have become refugees. They have experienced dangers and can only pray to God for a way to survive.
War, a simple word, is usually too far away from people. Everyone can talk about war without hesitation. But when this kind of thing really happens, a feeling suddenly rises in my heart.
It was so terrifying that it felt like the sky was falling, and it was so heavy that people couldn't breathe.
War will kill people, and if you don't pay attention, you will die!
The streets were in such chaos that even the government had no time to care about public order at this juncture. Yunjing had not found anyone who took the opportunity to cause chaos wherever he passed.
The soldiers, cadres, and officers were heading in the direction of the enemy's attack. Regardless of whether they voluntarily or had to obey orders, they had to bite the bullet. In addition, there were also ambitious people like Jianghu heroes who were also heading in that direction.
And go.
But relatively speaking, relatively few people in the world go in that direction, and most people don't want to run away and lose their lives in vain.
Of course, those who dare to run have already put their heads in their belts. For such people, such a war means making a fortune!
That's right, if they get rich and kill an enemy soldier, they will not only get rewards from the government, but the things they capture will also become their private property. This is an unspoken rule that is not explicitly stated in the dynasty's laws.
People who are gangsters go to help kill the enemy. Except for real people with lofty ideals, who would risk their lives to do it for nothing if there is no benefit?
Sitong Town is not big, and Yunjing's movements are not slow. In a few minutes, he arrived under the city wall in the direction of the enemy's attack.
Although it is said to be a city wall, it is actually only three meters high and can barely function as a defense against enemies.
When Yun Jing came here, there were already a lot of people standing on the city wall, which seemed a bit crowded and messy. There were people from the rivers and lakes, and there were also military and police officers, but they were quite distinct.
"Don't be cowardly. Stay still, keep your eyes wide open, and hold onto the weapons in your hands. If the enemy dares to come over, he will just slash with his sword. Anyone who dares to escape from the battle will be dealt with according to military law!"
There was a general in black armor who was maintaining military discipline and shouting loudly, his voice almost hoarse.
However, Yunjing could vaguely hear a tremor in his voice.
I guess this general is also scared. He has no choice but to do it. He has already gotten to the point where he is stationed in a town. How much ability and courage can he expect?
That general has a mid-term acquired cultivation level and is barely considered a good hand. He is more than enough to serve as the leader of the garrison in a small town.
However, Yunjing looked at the troops. They were old and young, with poor equipment. Many of them could not even hold weapons. How much combat effectiveness could they have?
To be honest, Yunjing is really worried about expecting these people to protect the safety of Sitong Town.
The ground outside the city wall was shaking violently, and the sounds of menacing laughter and shouts were getting closer and closer. The enemy troops were attacking, and soon there would be a hand-to-hand fighting scene.
Listening to the sound of the enemy troops approaching, Yunjing judged that their size was about three hundred, but they were all cavalry!
The enemy country sent a small group of troops to go deep into Dali to cause chaos. The number of troops will definitely not be too large. About three hundred is actually considered to be excessive. Plus the cavalry, the combat effectiveness can be imagined. Sitong Town is in danger...
Of course, the danger is just what Yunjing thinks after ruling out many factors. Not to mention that there is a big boss like Liu Neng in the town, but also himself. As long as the invading enemy digs out two or three hundred masters above the innate level, he will
One person can chop them all down!
So it's not a big problem.
There was a bit of chaos on the city wall, with less than a hundred people from the rivers and lakes coming to help. Yunjing also saw Ran Liang and the others.
Adding them all together, there are not many noteworthy masters. Including Ran Liang, there are only three or five in the late acquired days. It is probably because of Ran Liang's banquet that he gathered such "masters". There will definitely be fewer in the army. In the army, there are only three or five masters in the late acquired days.
Even more so...
It's a small place, but there can't be so many experts.
Deftly turning over and stepping onto the city wall, Yunjing came to Ran Liang and asked: "Brother Ran, how is the situation?"
While talking, Yunjing was also observing the enemy's situation.
Just as he had guessed, the number of enemy troops was about three hundred, all of them cavalry, and everyone was wearing armor and well equipped.
The group of enemy cavalry was less than a kilometer away from Sitong Town. Due to the heavy snow, the view was clear, and the attack of the cavalry was like a torrent of steel, which was frightening.
On the other hand, on the Sitong Town side, the defenders were all frightened and some were trembling. Needless to say, it only took one charge from the opponent to defeat them. The gap was too big.
"Damn, they are cavalry, and they can be called elite soldiers. Among them are not only late acquired soldiers, but also an innate realm leader. The enemy country is really willing to spend a lot of money!" Ran Liang, who was holding a big sword, looked forward and said with an ugly face.
Someone beside him swallowed his saliva and said: "Brother Liang, if that doesn't work, let's retreat. We'll leave the green hills behind and don't have to worry about running out of firewood. This group of cavalry is simply not something we can deal with. Even if we charge forward, we'll probably be killed if we meet each other."
Chop it into mincemeat!”
"No, behind me is my home, and many of your homes are also here. You can't retreat. If you retreat, everything will be over." Ran Liang gritted his teeth and said, the veins in the hand holding the big knife showing.
There hasn't even been a confrontation yet, but this side is already timid by three points...
Ran Liang didn't notice him at all. Yun Jing patted him on the shoulder again and asked: "Brother Ran, what should we do in this situation now?"
"Brother Yun, why are you here? Come on, this is not a place where a child like you can participate." Ran Liang turned around and pushed Yun Jing.
Feeling warm in his heart, Yun Jing shook his head and said: "Brother Ran, don't say these useless things. I am a man from Dali who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Let's talk about what to do first. The enemy is coming soon."
There was no time to pay attention to Yun Jing. Ran Liang took a deep breath and said: "I originally thought it was just a small group of enemy troops harassing the troops. There are dozens or hundreds of people. Let's fight with the wind to make some profit. Who knew it was a group of cavalry? There is nothing we can do. Now
We can only fight as hard as we can, kill as many as we can, exchange lives for lives, and hope that we can kill the enemy, otherwise everyone will be finished."
Fighting on the battlefield is not just a small fight. Under random knife attacks, no one knows where a knife will come out and kill them.
And once the enemy gets a breakthrough, their personal strength is too weak to stop the terrifying torrent!
Brother, you have been a county magistrate after all. In this situation, you only think of desperate measures?
No wonder your county magistrate couldn’t hold on after two years...
Cursing in his heart, Yun Jing quickly asked: "Although the enemy army is coming fiercely, what about our side? There are quite a few of them. Brother Ran, you are a local and familiar with the situation. Tell me how many troops we have here."
?”
"There are only 500 garrison troops, and almost all of them are here. You can see for yourself. I don't even want to say it. They can maintain law and order, but don't expect to deal with the cavalry in front." Ran Liang said with despair.
A town with a permanent population of tens of thousands actually has a garrison of 500 troops. This ratio is already somewhat excessive.
The problem is that such an army does not have much combat effectiveness at all.
"Brother Ran, don't panic. We are not necessarily at a disadvantage. After all, we are the defenders. As long as we hold back the pace of this cavalry, they will not be able to exert their advantage. We still have a great chance of holding on, and they are deep into our hinterland.
, must not dare to fight a protracted war, as long as they don't give in and delay him for a while, they will retreat themselves," Yun Jing analyzed.
There is one prerequisite: everyone must have the courage to face death without giving in...
"Hey, Brother Yun is right, do you know the art of war?" Ran Liang said with his eyes shining.
Yunjing shook his head and said: "I understand a little bit."
In fact, what Yunjing was thinking was, don't leave once this enemy force comes!
I just don’t know if Liu Neng will take action. From his height, there is a high probability that he will not take action in such a trivial matter, right?
Even if Liu Neng doesn't take action, Yunjing will keep this enemy force behind, and it's amazing that Liu Neng catches him.
"Brothers, have you heard this? Cheer up and kill the enemy dogs. As long as we wait for a while, we will win. The enemy will not dare to continue fighting." Ran Liang said loudly, learning and selling Yunjing's views on popular science.
.
"Brother Liang is so knowledgeable. If you hold back the enemy, they will never even think about setting foot in the town before I die!"
Ran Liang's words received a positive response, but only from his group of brothers.
After igniting the morale of the brothers, Ran Liang said without stopping: "I know the garrison general, and I have to go and inform him. We alone can't stand it. If they collapse, no matter how brave we are, we can only be
"Death is the price"
Saying that, he ran to find the general.
In fact, in this situation, the local garrison is the backbone. Without this garrison of 500 people, Ran Liang and the others might not have the courage to stand on the city wall. This is a fact.
Indeed, it seems that those soldiers have little fighting ability, but they have to be compared with someone. They are not good enough compared with the cavalry in front, but they are still better than ordinary people, right?
"Kill, after the city is broken, whoever gets the gold and silver treasures will get it. The fragrant beauties are waiting for us!"
Rumble…
The enemy troops are getting closer and closer, and even the enemy's morale-boosting voice can be clearly heard.
He speaks the language of the Dajiang Dynasty.
"Fire the arrow~!"
After all, the garrison here in Sitong Town still has some discipline. They are not scared out of their wits now and still stick to the city wall.
When the enemy was still a hundred meters away from the city wall, following the general's order, a sparse rain of arrows was fired at the enemy.
However, the effect was minimal. They were wearing armor, and except for a few unlucky ones who were injured, they couldn't even reduce their numbers.
"It's not polite to come back but not return. Draw your bow, shoot your arrows, and strive to capture this place in one fell swoop!"
