Chapter 389 Siege
Boom!
After a loud thunder, heavy rain began to fall in the sky, and the sky and the earth were completely blurred. The disciples who were patrolling secretly said bad luck and could only continue patrolling in the heavy rain.
The army in the distance became increasingly blurry.
"Come on, hurry up!" Under the heavy rain, Jiang Xun pulled Lin Ye and rushed into a courtyard in the city, where everyone from Nanweitang was temporarily accommodated.
After all, Nanweitang belongs to the Qingcheng faction and is a reinforcement. It is not their turn to do the usual guarding work.
At this time, almost all the soldiers were standing near the entrance of the courtyard, watching Jiang Xun pull Lin Ye and rush over quickly under the heavy rain, everyone's faces were filled with joy.
"Young City Master, that's great! It's great that you're okay!" The fourth captain ran over first, his face really full of joy, which made Lin Ye very suspicious and uncomfortable.
I remember that when he was in Xingping Town, he was really not loved by his grandfather and not loved by his grandmother. Now so many people are smiling and looking forward to his return...it feels good.
"Everyone... looks good~ We are about to go in, do you want to be soaked in water?"
Shi Wuwei smiled and said: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! Let the young city lord enter the house first."
This is a large courtyard house, but there are no doors or windows in the surrounding courtyards, so you can have a clear view. There are one or two bonfires lit in each house, and some of them have some meat grilled on them, which tastes pretty good.
Lin Ye walked directly into the main room and found a chair to sit down. Liao Fan quickly smiled and said: "Young City Master, are you hungry? I will roast a whole pig for you to try!"
Whole pig roast?
This is a good idea~
"Okay, okay, let's do it."
Although I had a good lunch, I was hungry again after traveling all afternoon.
"okay!"
Liao Fan quickly walked to the house next to him, carried a big fat pig that had been gutted, skewered it with a long sword, and roasted it on the bonfire.
The wind and rain outside are getting heavier and heavier, but there are smiles in the courtyard.
Lin Ye casually explained to everyone his whereabouts in the past half month, and then asked: "Is there enough food in the city?"
He still remembered that when the city of Chang'an was attacked, the Huashan faction had a vague shortage of food. Lin Ye asked this question directly without realizing it. Shi Wuwei was silent for a while and said: "It's not optimistic. It is said that when the city of Chang'an was breached, the imperial court destroyed the city."
The granary was ordered. Although Huashan sent out the fire in time, most of the food was still burned. As for how long it can last, this is too confidential and I can't find out, but I can feel that the food in the city is not
Not rich."
Lin Ye fell silent unconsciously, and Shi Wuwei quickly said: "Actually, the problem is not big. Now the entire northwest is integrated. Unlike in the past when there was that big nail in Chang'an City, the Huashan Sect has no longer borrowed food from ordinary people. It is very
In this period, we can only suffer for the common people."
Lin Ye: "..."
Where can I borrow this? It looks more like a forced conscription to me.
Will the Huashan sect return?
"Besides, there are twenty-five troops outside, and they have come all the way from afar. Their food consumption must be much greater than ours. Don't forget, the Liao Kingdom is dominating the north and is eyeing the Song Dynasty. I don't think the imperial court will follow us.
Fight a protracted war.”
That's right.
"Keep it, keep it, I don't know how long this battle will last," Lin Ye stretched and shook his head.
"We are waiting for destruction, or overthrow of the imperial court!"
Lin Ye: "...you, what did you say!?"
Shi Wuwei looked at Lin Ye and said: "Young City Lord, haven't you seen yet? What is the difference between what we are doing now and treason! Once we embark on this path, it will only be you and me who will live and die!"
Lin Ye: "..."
It seems that it is really a rebellion...
boom!
A loud noise suddenly came from outside, and then a man was heard shouting: "The army is coming! The imperial army is attacking again!!"
Lin Ye was so shocked that he quickly stood up from the chair. On this rainy day, can't we let others take a good rest?
"Shi Wuwei, give all the people in Nanweitang to the command and help the Huashan faction defend the city!"
Lin Ye thought that he was not very good at commanding the army, so he should leave it to Shi Wuwei. So far, Shi Wuwei's command in the past half month has been pretty good.
"Defend the city!"
Lin Ye didn't say much. He stood up and rushed towards the city wall. He felt a little excited in his heart. This was the first time he faced an endless army!
Under the howling night of heavy rain, endless flying stones and arrows pierced through the heavy rain and smashed towards the Tongguan city wall!
Torches burning with kerosene rose up in the rainy night, illuminating a space.
Countless Huashan Sect disciples held long swords in their hands, with terrifying Qi rising from their bodies, and they shot down incoming arrows and flying stones.
"Attention! According to past experience, the opponent will definitely let the elite team take the lead in storming the city to create time for the large army to arrive, and then the strongest master will hide in the army and attack suddenly!"
"A team of at least five people! Don't disperse!!"
The elite team takes the lead in storming the city, which can destroy the city's attack and defense, allowing the army to retain its strength as much as possible to attack the city, and then wait for the strongest masters in the chaos to take action.
This routine sounds pretty good.
Under the heavy rain and night, the army continued to press forward with steady steps towards the city. Countless arrows and flying stones kept flying, but the city also kept hitting back flying stones and arrows.
As a result, there were almost no casualties on the Huashan sect. After all, they were at least masters of the first-level martial arts realm, so they would not die from arrows flying all over the sky. However, the same could not be said for the army outside the city.
Each disciple's arrows were filled with terrifying energy, and one arrow even killed two people. In just a few breaths, hundreds of soldiers were killed.
This surprised Lin Ye. No wonder he was so strong despite being able to defend for such a long time.
However, this oppressive massacre did not last long. Ten squads, almost two thousand people, quickly rushed out of the army and rushed towards the city wall. Judging from their speed, they should be at least first-level masters.
These elites were not afraid of the wind and rain, and climbed up to the city like crazy. There were 200 people in each team, and the leaders should be young masters who relied on drugs to improve themselves.
As these elite disciples rushed to the city, the city suddenly became chaotic, and the arrows in the sky were weakened by 70%.
"snort!"
Lin Ye snorted coldly, stood up suddenly, and took a step closer to a junior captain.
He didn't even draw his sword, he just waved his hand and chopped off the captain's head!
"What!?"
There was horror all around!
But soon there was even louder cheers, and the Huashan Sect disciples became more energetic!
Lin Ye didn't care about the ordinary disciples, but looked for the masters of the third level among the enemies. If there was one, he would kill him!
The opponent couldn't stop Lin Ye's blow at all, but within a quarter of an hour, Lin Ye almost killed the master who climbed up the city wall.
Chapter completed!
