The sudden intrusion of an outsider made Chen Chang and Shui Ling'er, who were originally embracing each other, feel like frightened birds in the forest, and they separated.
Chen Chang blocked Shui Ling'er behind him, and when he saw Yan Qianshi's fat, sweaty face illuminated by the torch, he felt relieved.
Why is this fat man as annoying as those bad teachers in the university who patrol the woods with flashlights? He coughed a few times and asked: "Brother, why are you here?"
Yan Qianshi did not answer, but held up a torch to shine a light on Chen Sing, and then on Shui Ling'er who was hiding behind him. Shui Ling'er was seen with her head lowered, a blush already covering her cheeks, and she was extremely shy.
Chen Chang asked hurriedly: "Is it possible that the war situation ahead has changed?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... Oops..." Yan Qianshi said angrily, "I thought you forgot where this is, that there are thieves outside besieging us, huh, you actually came here to fight with us.
On a tryst, the person who sees you with thick eyebrows and big eyes is actually such a person..."
Chen Chang explained awkwardly: "Brother, please listen to my explanation, things are not what you think..."
Shui Ling'er also endured the shame and said: "Mr. Yan family, this matter is not my brother's fault, it's my fault..."
Yan Qianshi made a sour expression, shook his big head and waved his hands: "That's all, I don't want to hear your explanation here. Qi Lang, since you two are in love with each other, you are better than
That Liu Yaozu is a little bit better. As an elder brother, I naturally have no reason to beat the mandarin ducks, but I need to have a more vivid mind on how to deal with the Liu family.
By the way, Miss Shui, since we are a family now, you don’t want to be an outsider with me. If Qilang bullies you, just tell Brother, I will never forgive him..."
Chen Chang was overjoyed, did you see that? This is a brother. This is the good brother who just opened his mouth to cover you without saying a word when his wife called him to check on him!
Shui Ling'er was originally heartbroken, but after hearing Yan Qianshi's words, she was even more at a loss. Her cheeks were hot. She raised her head inadvertently, revealing two black and bright eyes. She turned her eyes and met Chen Chang's eyes.
, hurriedly lowered his head again.
Chen Chang told Yan Qianshi about the situation in the secret passage. Yan Qianshi said with lingering fear: "Thank you for your quick wit. You used Miss Wang and Zhou Xiaowei's powerful general Liu Yaozu to scare him, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. If it had been the case back then.
Being with you, I won’t put you in danger alone, just be okay, be okay...”
He was chattering there alone, completely unaware that the man and woman in front of him made eye contact at the same time.
Chen Chang thought to himself, if I came with you, I'm afraid the beautiful scenery in the main hall of the ancestral hall would no longer exist.
Shui Ling'er's eyes were originally evasive, but they moved around and only wandered for a moment before bravely looking at Chen Chang. Without leaving for a moment, she thought to herself: "He and I just met yesterday, but in such a short time
We had two skin-to-skin kisses within a few hours. Could this be the so-called fate? Could it be that my Liu family endured the humiliation just to wait for his arrival one day..."
Chen Chang didn't know that Shui Ling'er was having thoughts like "My lover is an unparalleled hero, and one day he will step on the colorful auspicious clouds to marry me." When he saw her, a touch of tenderness gradually appeared in her eyes, and he wanted to immediately
He hugged her soft body and kissed her lips.
"Ah, oh, yes, I almost forgot about the real thing!" Yan Qianshi's scream destroyed the romantic atmosphere in an instant, "You are all confused. It was Miss Wang who asked me to come to you.
, saying that we have something to discuss, go quickly, don’t keep her waiting..."
Chen Chang sighed, while Shui Ling'er blinked, blushing and calming down.
Chen Chang took Shui Ling'er's hand and said as he ran: "You stay with Brother and Weng. These thieves are determined to commit crimes. I have to go and take a look."
Shui Ling'er was held by his hand, and the slightly warm feeling came from the palm of her hand again, which made her feel at ease, and she responded in a low voice.
Yan Qianshi groaned, muttered, twisted his fat buttocks and hurried after him.
The rising sun in the east gradually emitted bright light, filling the sky with bright red morning glow. The white fog gradually dispersed, but the crisis in Wubao did not end with the advent of the sun.
As soon as Chen Chang climbed up the tower, he heard shouts of killing everywhere outside Wubao. From a distance, he saw Miss Wang and Wei Chuan directing the guards to fight back below by stomping on arrows. The scene was very chaotic.
Chen Chang hurriedly ran towards where Miss Wang was standing, following the arrow. After running for more than ten steps, a sharp arrow flew past his cheek with a whoosh, hitting a young man carrying a log.
On his left shoulder, the man was in so much pain that he threw the thick log to the ground, covered the wound and screamed. This scene scared Chen Chang into a cold sweat.
Chen Chang quickly fell to the ground, his heart pounding, he calmed down a little, and slowly got up while stomping on the arrow. He poked his head out and took a look, and was shocked.
It was a long story that he went to retrieve Shui Ling'er in the secret passage of the ancestral hall. In fact, it only took three sticks of incense, but the number of thieves outside Wubao was more than double what he had seen before.
I saw bandits in various costumes everywhere under the high wall. Under the cover of the bows and arrows of their companions at the rear, the bandits in the front were wading in with shields made of wooden boards and pot lids. Some of the brave ones were already
When we got to the base of the wall, there were even more people hiding in the doorway.
There were twenty or thirty corpses floating on the river, which was not very wide. The originally clear and green river water was dotted with bright red blood, like pineapples and green jade with red ribbons.
Looking across the river, these thieves cut down trees at some point to make a simple hook ladder for climbing the city, and they were trying to transport it across the river under the command of the little leader.
Chen Chang observed the situation for a while. Although the opponent's bows and arrows were not as well-made as the guards and their range was insufficient, they were superior in number. Even though the guards continued to fire arrows back, the enemy was outnumbered and the geographical location was gradually taking advantage of them.
The ground weakened, and some guards were suppressed by the arrows from the city and were unable to raise their heads.
With the cover of bows and arrows, the momentum of these thieves immediately overwhelmed the defenders on the city. Listening to their shouts, it seemed that there was some gold and silver treasure in this fort, and they could just break into it.
Take whatever you want, and of course the woman in this fort.
Chen Chang continued to walk forward in a hurry. When he was still about ten steps away from Miss Wang, he heard Wei Chuanzheng exclaim. Almost at the same time, he pushed Miss Wang aside. A piece of cake the size of a plate was
The stone suddenly fell on the arrow stamp on the city wall, smashing the green bricks into dust.
A young man couldn't avoid it and was hit. In an instant, his chest collapsed, his bones were broken, and his tendons were broken. He fell in a pool of blood and twitched constantly. He saw that he would not survive.
Chen Chang was stunned secretly, and was also startled. He looked down the city, looking for the source of the stoning. He saw four very crude catapults on a high ground on the other side of the river. They were said to be crude because of the catapults.
There were still twigs and leaves that had not been cut down on the bracket and the throwing rod. The branches and leaves flickered and trembled with the swing of the throwing rod. He couldn't help but be impressed by the super hands-on ability of the ancient working people.
Miss Wang also escaped the thunderous blow, her face was pale, she turned around and saw Chen Chang hiding behind the arrow stomp, and hurriedly waved: "Come here quickly, be careful, don't get hurt by the arrows."
Taking advantage of the gap between the opponent's two stone throws, Chen Chang limped and ran over, hunched over. This time he ran a little faster, breathing rapidly and almost out of breath.
Chen Chang asked loudly: "Miss, how could this happen?"
Wang Huan smiled bitterly, she was also at a loss about this.
After dawn, the number of thieves not only doubled, but the intensity of the siege was also much stronger. It was very different from the loose appearance before, as if there was an invisible big hand manipulating it in the dark.
After Wei Chuanzheng listened, he pointed to the side and said loudly: "The thieves have increased their troops, and they have obtained these damn siege equipment. The defenders on the city are really focusing on one thing and not the other. I have sent people to find more green people."
We are defending the city strongly. If reinforcements from Jiangling do not come, this Wubao will fall..."
As he was talking, some young men came to the city led by the leader. Immediately, several guards ordered them to disperse everywhere. Although they had just described the key points of attack and defense in the Wubao, they were only ordinary people after all.
The common people had little strength and had no formal military training. In addition, this was a battle of life and death, so some people were still fighting with each other. Once they stood on the top of the city, they couldn't even move forward.
p>
Not long after, two young men were hit by arrows, and one of them screamed and fell from the arrow.
The other one was shot in the shoulder. The injury was not serious, but the scream was like a slaughtered pig. This negative emotion quickly infected the other companions. They all lay on the ground, scared and timid, and let them go.
No matter how loud these guards are, they are still willing to show their heads.
However, it may not be safe to just act like an ostrich. Soon, two young men were hit by stones thrown up. One was killed and the other was injured. A guy with a sly eyebrow shouted: "We can't hold on to Wubao any longer."
It's about to break, everyone, run for your life..."
The shouts stopped suddenly, and Chen Chang saw a sharp knife coming out of the man's chest, and then Wei Chuanzheng's extremely ferocious face flashed out. He pulled out the ring-shou knife and licked his dry lips,
He said viciously: "Anyone who dares to disturb the morale of the army will be killed without mercy!"
Wei Chuanzheng was trying to temporarily stabilize the morale of the army with the life of that sly-looking guy. Unexpectedly, it only took a moment for the common people to become commotion again, and some people still rushed to the city.
Wei Chuanzheng swung his sword and knocked over a few more, but it still didn't help. We couldn't kill them all.
At this moment, someone shouted loudly: "Don't retreat anymore. Behind you are your parents, wives and children. If you retreat just now, where will you put them?
Now that the thieves are besieging the city, we have no choice but to sacrifice ourselves to the end. There is no chance of escape. Now that the battle has begun, no matter how old or young, everyone has the responsibility to defend the land and resist the thieves, and they should all be determined.
Determination to sacrifice everything. In this dangerous and inseparable friendship, taking a step back will put your parents, wife and children in a place of eternal disaster...
Mother, are you still men? If any of you retreat, the thieves will break into Wubao, sleep with your wife, spend your money and silk, and beat your children..."
Finally, the men's bloody nature was aroused. They screamed and returned to the arrow stamping. They didn't even look at the city, and just threw the stones piled under their feet down randomly. Their wives might be sleeping under the city.
For a man, the hatred of seizing his wife is a life-and-death battle.
However, in the panic, he completely forgot about the explanation and instructions he had just heard, and did not care whether there were thieves in the city. The guards became even more angry. Damn it, the chicken blood beating was too much!
Although the words were rude, Wang Huan, Wei Chuanzheng and others only felt a surge of heroic spirit in their chests. In the confusion, they searched for the person who had just shouted, but saw that he was first looking straight at a small forest on the other side of the river, and then
As he spoke, he stumbled towards the stairs.
Shui Ling'er, Yan Xiu and others were originally hiding in the wing. They looked around after hearing the shouts from the top of the city. It was the voice of his singing brother. Her breathing became more and more rapid with every word he said.
, the bright eyes immediately filled with mist. When I heard the last few vulgar words, I couldn't help but smile. It is true that bright eyes can grace the landscape, and a smile is like a hundred flowers blooming...
