In the 383rd year of the Qin Dynasty, it was June 23rd.
Millions of barbarians attacked the gate of Dahuang Prefecture at night, breaking through several cities overnight. The army marched straight in. A large number of troops were killed in the battle and the people were displaced.
at last.
The barbarian troops were divided into five groups and surrounded the entire Dahuang Mansion in an arc, hoping to completely capture the Dahuang Mansion in one fell swoop.
Because the barbarians were as fast as thunder, Great Qin had no time to react.
It was not until a few days later that other parts of Dahuang Mansion received news of the barbarian invasion, and corresponding arrangements were made.
The center of Dahuang Mansion.
A majestic city is located in it. The tall and simple city walls, no matter how many years have left their mark on them, have never been able to destroy them. They are as daunting as a natural chasm.
Xuancheng!
This is the most majestic city in Dahuang Prefecture, and it is also the main city of the huge Dahuang Prefecture.
Most of Dahuang Prefecture's troops stayed in Xuancheng to defend the main city that suppressed Dahuang Prefecture.
Because of Xuancheng’s special geographical location.
In addition to the government offices in the city, there is also the city lord's palace.
in.
The city lord is in charge of the outside, and the yamen is in charge. Both of them are in charge of Xuancheng and maintain order and stability in the city.
Now, the atmosphere in the city lord's palace is solemn and solemn.
A majestic-looking middle-aged man wearing a black unicorn robe and a white jade belt was sitting at the top.
This is the lord of Xuancheng City, Nangong Yu.
Sitting below him were Guang Heng, the prefect of Xuancheng, and Dongyang, the commander of Xuancheng's Black Tiger Army.
now.
The prefect Guang Heng's face was as gloomy as water.
"A mere barbarian dares to openly invade our Great Wilderness Mansion now. He really doesn't take our Great Qin seriously. I asked Lord Nangong to give the order. I will definitely lead the Black Tiger Army to kill those barbarians in one fell swoop."
Dongyang shouted in a deep voice, with obvious anger in his eyes.
Barbarians!
Those were just barbarians who were beaten so hard by Qin that they could not hold their heads up.
Great Qin has never taken the barbarians seriously. If it were not for the restrictions of the barbaric region, the barbarians would have been wiped out long ago.
For such barbarians.
Dongyang felt disdain from the bottom of his heart.
Now that the barbarians are invading Dahuang Mansion, it is tantamount to openly slapping Great Qin's face. As the main force in Dahuang Mansion, the Black Tiger Army will lose all face if the barbarians are allowed to wreak havoc.
The words fell.
Guang Heng also said: "The barbarians really deserve to be killed. They have plundered the borders of our Dahuang Mansion over the years, causing great losses to our Dahuang Mansion. Now they dare to lead millions of people to attack our Dahuang Mansion. They are simply eating the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard."
.
If we don’t annihilate those millions of barbarians this time, how can we, the Qin Dynasty, lose face!”
In their words, both of them had the intention of directly leading the army to annihilate the barbarians.
Above the first place.
Nangong Yu always remained calm.
After the two of them finished speaking, he slowly spoke, and his rich voice sounded in the city lord's mansion.
"In fact, you and I both know very well how strong the barbarians are. Although the barbarians have a chance to survive in the vast wilderness, the conditions there are difficult and many barbarians have lost their lives due to various reasons over the years.
For this reason, the number of barbarians has never been able to increase much.
In addition, every year as winter approaches, the barbarians will send some people to plunder the border, with the purpose of plundering some resources so that the barbarians can survive the harsh winter."
While speaking, Nangong Yu paused.
His eyes fell on the two of them.
"The barbarians plunder the border of Dahuang Prefecture every year, which causes us heavy losses, but relatively speaking, it is easier for the barbarians to lose. As a result, the strength of the barbarians is actually declining every year.
In the past, we, the Qin Dynasty, did not attack the past, which made them extremely lucky.
Now that the barbarians dare to openly invade our Dahuang Mansion, I'm afraid the purpose is not that simple."
Although the barbarians are all uncivilized barbarians, it does not mean that all barbarians are fools.
on the contrary.
There are many wise men among the barbarians, and the priests can predict the future.
These people are also the reason why the barbarians can survive to this day.
If the barbarians dared to attack Dahuang Mansion without any assurance, Nangong Yu would never believe it.
But the problem is.
Where does the barbarian’s confidence come from?
to be honest.
He has no idea at all.
Guangheng frowned.
"From the news, it seems that the barbarians are cooperating with the demons of the Eternal Life Alliance. Their confidence to attack the Great Desolate Mansion probably comes from the Eternal Life Alliance."
The power of the Eternal Alliance has never been weak.
It can compete with Da Qin, and its strength is evident.
more importantly.
Behind the Eternal Alliance stands Yaoxie.
The power of demons and evils is truly terrifying. Even Great Qin at its peak could only barely contend against the demons and evils.
Now that the barbarians cooperate with the Eternal Life Alliance, they have an extremely powerful help.
"Cooperating with evil spirits is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger. Barbarians are not that stupid."
Nangong Yu shook his head.
Judging from the current situation, the barbarians are indeed cooperating with the evil spirits, but they are definitely not completely cooperating with the evil spirits.
In the final analysis.
The strength of the barbarians is too weak compared to Yaoxie. If you rashly cooperate with Yaoxie, you will have a knife on your neck, and it will fall at any time.
Not as a last resort.
Barbarians would never do this.
so.
From Nangong Yu's point of view, the barbarians must have other back-ups, but Da Qin has no way of knowing too much for the time being.
"Lord Nangong, there is no need to think so much now. The barbarians have invaded Dahuang Mansion. What we have to do is to fight back the barbarians. Otherwise, one more day of delay will be a huge loss for Dahuang Mansion."
Dongyang interrupted Nangongyu's contemplation.
In his opinion.
It is obviously unnecessary for the other party to think so much.
What needs to be done now is to send troops to suppress the barbarians, and anything else is just empty talk.
Hear the words.
Nangong Yu nodded slightly.
"You are right. What we are mainly doing now is to fight back all those millions of barbarians. But the problem is that the barbarians are coming with great force. The army left in Dahuang Mansion now cannot resist the millions of barbarians.
An easy task.
I have already reported this matter to the court. Soon, the court will send a large army to help.
How many troops are still left on the Black Tiger Army side?"
Finished.
He was already looking at Dongyang.
"There are still 200,000 Black Tiger troops guarding Xuancheng. Together with the troops in other cities in Dahuang Prefecture, it is not a big problem to raise an army of 500,000. Plus other troops, even if Dahuang Prefecture cannot gather 100,000 troops, it will not be a big problem."
An army of ten thousand, but seven to eight hundred thousand is also acceptable."
Dongyang replied without thinking.
He is not only the commander-in-chief of the Black Tiger Army in Xuancheng, but also the supreme commander-in-chief of the Black Tiger Army in Dahuang Mansion.
Talking about positions.
It's just one level lower than Nangong Yu.
Compared to the prefect of Xuancheng, it is not half inferior.
Therefore, Dongyang also has a clear understanding of the military strength of Dahuang Mansion.
"The 800,000-strong army is indeed a large number."
Nangong Yu understood and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
"The barbaric areas are difficult, and the barbarians who came out there are also brave. The ordinary Qin people have no way to compete with the barbarians. The 500,000 black tiger army is the main force against the millions of barbarians. The remaining 200,000 to 300,000 troops can play a great role
not much.
This time the barbarians have the cooperation of the Eternal Life Alliance, and the demon-suppressing divisions from all over the Great Wilderness are taking action, but they may not be able to suppress them all.
If the barbarians really go out with all their strength, the Black Tiger Army alone will not be able to resist them."
The Black Tiger Army is strong.
But it was just one of the many powerful armies of the Qin Dynasty.
It would be a joke to rely solely on the Black Tiger Army to contend with the entire barbarian tribe.
Dongyang looked a little angry, but he didn't say anything to refute.
He understands.
What Nangong Yu said is true.
Although Dongyang said that he wanted to exterminate the barbarians, in fact, with the current strength of the Black Tiger Army, there was simply no way to achieve this level.
Nangong Yu said: "What the Black Tiger Army has to do now is to set up a defense line to contain the momentum of the barbarian attack, and then wait for reinforcements from the court, and with the cooperation of the two, they can wipe out those millions of barbarians in one fell swoop.
A hasty attack may easily cause unnecessary losses."
"I understand the humble position!"
Dongyang clasped his fists and accepted the order.
Then.
Nangong Yu looked at Guang Heng.
"The barbarians have conquered many cities in the past. I think the refugee disaster is quite serious in Dahuang Mansion. I hope that the government will also take action and cooperate with various places to accept the refugees, so as not to make people's hearts wander too much.
If you don’t know this, how can most people do it?”
"I'll do my best."
Guang Heng nodded solemnly.
The refugee situation is indeed very serious.
There are many civilians in each city, but judging from the current intelligence, there are no fewer than ten cities that have been captured by the barbarians. Even if only half of them are refugees, that is a population of millions.
If these people are not dealt with and allowed to roam around in Dahuang Mansion, the consequences will be disastrous.
after all.
Refugees are people too.
The human heart is the hardest thing to predict.
If it is not appeased, it won't be long before Dahuang Mansion will be infested with rogue bandits, and may even be exploited by someone with ulterior motives to turn it into a rebellious force.
At that time.
With rebels inside and threats from barbarians outside, the situation in Dahuang Mansion is truly difficult.
If it really comes to that point, Guang Heng can be sure that he, the prefect of Xuancheng, has truly come to an end.
Just when a few people were discussing.
A general came in hurriedly from outside. When he saw Nangong Yu, he immediately knelt down on one knee.
"I have met Lord Nangong in my humble position!"
"Tell me, what happened."
Nangong Yu looked calm, but when his eyes fell on the general, he made him feel great pressure.
at the same time.
Guangheng and Dongyang also looked at each other.
At this juncture, someone suddenly came to report, and they all had a bad premonition in their hearts.
Could it be
Has the situation changed in Dahuang Mansion?
Just when thoughts arose in the minds of the two of them, the general reported the truth truthfully.
"Two days ago, 120,000 barbarians led by Maierba attacked Jincheng. Jincheng could only hold out for less than a day before they were all defeated and then broke out."
