There was a burst of yelling and cursing outside the city: "No, those stinky bitches escaped and entered Hudu City."
A burst of rapid gongs and drums sounded in the darkness, followed by hundreds of shadows running in the darkness. Wei Shun jumped into the city wall, picked up the big bow in his hand, and pointed at the black shadows outside the city. Just one arrow and a scream. More than ninety steps away, a figure fell to the ground. Beside Wei Shunzhi, more than a hundred archers also fired arrows one after another. After several screams, those black figures who wanted to rush upward , all disappeared, Yuan Song breathed a sigh of relief, patted Wei Shunzhi on the shoulder, and said: "Master Wei, today I have seen your ability. You are indeed an elite in Beifu."
Wei Shunzhi put down the big bow in his hand and said calmly: "My skills are average among the Beifu Army. They are not as good as Brother Jinu and others. Even compared to my elder brother Yongzhi, they are much worse. I ran away." Being a little faster than others is just a bit of a specialty."
His eyes fell on the women standing aside, and he said solemnly: "Originally, according to the city defense laws, we cannot open the city to save people, but Mr. Yuan is kind-hearted, so he still lets you in. You should take care of yourself in the city. Obeying the arrangements of the military law of the city defenders, do you still have any relatives or friends in the city?"
The women looked at each other in disbelief. The leader, Mrs. Aqing, who was now wrapped in a Jin army flag, shook her head and said: "We are all common people outside the city. The men in the family have been killed by monsters and thieves this time, and we have no relatives." For no reason, Duke Yuan and the other military lords rescued us. We are so kind and virtuous that we are willing to work as slaves or maids to repay our kindness."
Yuan Song sighed: "It's pitiful to be born in these troubled times. Let's do it this way. Now it's urgent to defend the city, and it's hard to arrange for you all at once. You can form your own team. I'll ask a few servants from the county governor's house later. , I will take you down to change your clothes, and then place you in the governor's mansion. For the time being, you will wash and cook for the soldiers guarding the city, and do your part. Daily rations will be distributed according to the standards of women in the city. Wait until the defense of the city is over. , then arrange your livelihood."
Sister Zhen said quickly: "We are willing to serve the county governor's wife in return for our great kindness."
Yuan Song smiled and said: "The war is fierce and the war is dangerous. My wife has been placed in Jiankang City for a long time. I came here alone to take up my post. After hearing what you said, I miss my wife a little. Okay, you have worked hard today, so go down and eat something and have a good rest. You also know the consequences of falling into the hands of demon thieves. I hope you can work together with the soldiers defending the city to tide over the difficulties."
All the women knelt down to thank them. Yuan Song waved his hand, and several sergeants behind him led them back. Wei Shunzhi whispered: "Mr. Yuan, is it too much to place them in the governor's mansion? After all, they are people coming from outside, so you still have to be careful."
Yuan Song waved his hand: "You have also seen that these weak women are covered in wounds, how can they be demon thieves? I have also seen those demon women who are thieves, and they are all unconscious, and they are definitely not as sober as them. Yes, and these women are all acquainted with the soldiers and civilians in the city, so there will be no problems. Even if there are some problems if we retreat ten thousand steps, then I have 200 guards in the county governor's house, and I can control these two. There are more than a dozen unarmed women, so don’t worry about them. You said that after dawn, demon thieves will attack the city in large numbers, and those are the ones we need to focus on guarding against."
Wei Shunzhi wanted to say something else, but Yuan Song yawned: "I'm a little tired too. I want to take a nap. Leader Wei and Guard Chen, you'd better take the time to close your eyes for a while. There will be fierce battles during the day." Woolen cloth."
As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards the bottom of the city. The sergeants at the top of the city saluted him. Wei Shunzhi sighed, turned to Chen Yi and said: "I always feel that something is wrong. How can dozens of weak women come from behind?" He escaped from the demon thief camp, do you think it is possible?"
Chen Yi smiled and said: "How is this impossible? These women are familiar with the terrain around Hudu, and the demon thieves indulged in alcohol and fell asleep afterwards, which also gave them the possibility of escaping. There are only more than twenty women, and they can still Don't worry about what you've been working on, as tomorrow's big deal will be to deal with the monsters and thieves attacking the city."
Wei Shunzhi curled his lips, looked at the demon thief camp outside the city, and murmured: "I hope I am worrying too much."
Dawn, chen hour.
Outside the Hudu Fortress, there was a sound of intensive drums and horns. The main camp gate of Tianshi Dao's camp slowly opened. Sun En was sitting on a huge shoulder carriage, surrounded by forty or fifty people. The disciple is carrying him, wearing a Taoist robe, holding a fly whisk in his left hand, and a sword in his right hand. His hair is tied up in a high crown, and his long beard is fluttering. If it is normal, he looks more like a Taoist master with an immortal air. He is also like a god, which is difficult to let people know. I believe that this is a cruel devil who kills without blinking an eye.
And more than 10,000 Tianshi Dao warriors, either holding swords or holding halberds, lined up from each camp. Today, they did not launch catapults like yesterday, but carried ladders and halberds on their shoulders. With claws, hooks, long ropes and other things to climb the city, it is obvious that they are ready for the ants to attack the city.
On top of the city, Wei Shunzhi frowned and looked at the Tianshi Dao army outside the city without saying a word. Behind him, Yuan Song's voice sounded again: "Master Wei, look at the formation of the demon thieves. for what?"
Wei Shunzhi turned back to Yuan Song, who was wearing leather armor and seemed to be out of breath even when walking, and said, "Mr. Yuan, you are here."
Yuan Song waved his hand: "How can I stay in the city today? No matter what, I can get to the top of the city and kill the thieves with the soldiers. Of course, I will not interfere with your command, Lord Wei. Just give the order."
Wei Shunzhi nodded: "The thieves seemed to be trying to climb the city wall with all their strength and gave up throwing stones to suppress them. It's strange, why did they choose this method of attack with the highest casualties and the lowest effectiveness? Do they really think that the more than 4,000 people in my city are The soldiers are dead, can they fall in such a rush?"
Yuan Song smiled and said: "We have been operating the fortress for more than two years, and we can finally kill the thieves. Soldiers, vent the anger in your hearts about the atrocities of the demon thieves you have seen these days. You can only use the demon thieves." Only with the blood of thieves can we pay tribute to those innocent people who died in vain! Every time you kill a thief today, I, Yuan Song, will record it and ask the court and the Holy One for your merits!"
There was a burst of cheers from the top of the city: "Killing thieves is a meritorious service, killing thieves is a meritorious service!"
Sun En, who was outside the city, suddenly sneered with disdain: "Okay, now, I will ask you to make meritorious deeds and make great achievements. Don't be polite!"
