Cheng Dalei stood on the top of the mountain, and the leaders of the families went up the mountain one by one. The mountain ladder was very narrow, and only one person could climb up it first. At dusk, only a dozen people climbed up the mountain.
"Gao Feihu, Gao Fei Leopard." Cheng Dalei began to give the order.
"The boss."
"I order you two to take five hundred brothers and escort the old, weak, women and children from the village to evacuate."
"Are we going to withdraw?" This was the first time the two of them knew Cheng Dalei's intentions.
"If we can't hold on, we can only let the old and the weak go first." Cheng Dalei said: "You go down the mountain from here, go to the port to find a boat and go to the sea, and go to the south, where it is safer."
"The people outside the mountain are all Rong people. I'm afraid it won't be easy to leave." Liu sighed sadly.
"So we have to walk in batches, at night, and slowly." Cheng Dalei.
"Go slowly? Will they give us time?" Liu Bei sighed again.
"There will be time." Cheng Dalei suddenly turned around and said to Guan Yu: "Second Master, I still need you to take five hundred brothers to do something..."
"If once we leave, there will be less than a thousand brothers left in the stronghold. If the Rong tribe attacks, can we still defend it?" Liu Bei kept sighing.
"I will find a way to hold them back and buy time for everyone." After Cheng Dalei said this, he looked at Liu Bei and said, "If you sigh again, I will beat you to death. Believe it or not."
Liu Bei opened his mouth but said nothing, but what he was thinking in his heart was: How can you keep it alone?
"Report..." With a long shout, a minion ran down the mountain and shouted: "Master, the Rong soldiers have gathered and are ready to fight at any time depending on the situation."
"The boss..."
Liu Bei and Xu Shenji shouted in unison:
"The trend is irreversible. Let's all go together. Only as many people as we can get out of."
"Don't be afraid." Cheng Dalei stood at the highest point: "Today, let's see my boss call the storms for you."
…
The nine armies of the Rong clan reunited. Their soldiers were like wolves, their generals were like tigers, and their troops were powerful. A hundred thousand tiger and wolf troops were assembled, with banners covering the sky, and armor in battle.
The big tent was filled with a joyful atmosphere, and in a friendly and lively atmosphere everyone exchanged their thoughts on the recent battles.
"To say it was a good fight, it was a battle of iron and stone. They broke through the city gate before sunset. Once the city gate was broken, the southerners had no resistance and could only run for their lives like sheep."
"Tieshicheng has only killed so many people in total, but we still had a great time fighting the Qingzhou soldiers. They still want to compete with our cavalry, so we should teach them how to behave."
"No one can compete with our warriors on horseback. This time they bloodbathed Luoye City, but they grabbed a lot of things."
Everyone drank heavily while enjoying the singing and dancing of the female concubines in the big tent. These women were all snatched from Youzhou. The meeting was held in such a lively atmosphere.
"Then let's think about it, how should we attack Toad Village tomorrow?" the eldest prince said.
The lively atmosphere cooled down, but then became noisy.
"One hundred thousand people are drowning in one mouthful of foam, so what else can they do?"
"Our army pounced on them, and they probably peed their pants in fear."
Jin Daodao looked at the bustle in the big tent, and never spoke or drank.
As the saying goes, the more you show off something, the more it means you are lacking something. People keep showing off their achievements, in fact, they want to build self-confidence in themselves. This also proves in disguise that they do not have much self-confidence.
Indeed, when we were conquering the city in Youzhou, the imperial army either ran away or trembled when they saw the Rong tribe. That feeling told everyone that we were invincible and invincible, and our cavalry was unparalleled in the world.
We are born warriors.
However, once they entered the Qingniu Mountain area, everyone seemed to fall into a strange aura, with negative buffs on their bodies. Their IQ was weakened, their strength was weakened, and their luck value was halved.
Toad Village is not easy to fight.
Everyone who has fought against Cheng Dalei understands this, and among all the people, Jin Dao has the deepest experience. In the first battle, Cheng Dalei used the city gate as a erbium to lure the enemy deep into the city, turning the barbican into a cauldron and cooking it all in one pot.
Jin asked for an army of five thousand.
Using the city as a pot, killing as fire, and boiling corpses and blood into a pot of soup, how many people in the world have the courage to drink this soup?
The scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood often appeared in Jin Daodao's dreams. He was still relatively strong, but those with a weak will would have a mental breakdown, and would never be able to hold the sword again.
"We will attack the city tomorrow. This battle will definitely be bloody. Please..."
"Report..." The spies broke into the tent and interrupted the eldest prince: "Excuse me, there is a bonfire at the top of Toad Village. I wonder what they are doing?"
"Huh!"
Everyone frowned, wondering what they were doing. Because they couldn't hold on any longer, they were going to play with fire and burn themselves.
Several princes left the tent and came to the gate of Toad Village.
From a distance, I saw Cheng Dalei standing at the top of the city, with disheveled hair, wearing a long robe, holding a sword in his hand, singing and dancing around the bonfire, mumbling and wondering what he was doing.
"What is he doing?"
Everyone was confused. When the eldest prince said this, he looked at Jin and asked. He had a little more contact with Cheng Dalei.
"I don't understand either." Jin asked, and suddenly he was startled: "Is he asking for rain?"
"He still has the ability to pray for rain!" The eldest prince was surprised.
"I have indeed seen him do this, but I don't know whether he knows magic or not."
"Go and see a person and listen to what spell he is reciting."
"Be careful of hidden arrows."
A spy risked his life and sneaked under the city to listen. In fact, he was too far away and couldn't hear clearly. He could vaguely hear:
"the vast horizon is my love
Flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills.”
When the spies came back from their inquiries and reported the news to several people, they all frowned.
"The winding river water comes from the sky..." Jin Wendao was surprised: "He is praying for rain!"
Everyone was a little nervous. Spells were a bit scary. The eldest prince waved his hand to suppress everyone's comments.
"Hmph, you are pretending to be a ghost, and he can actually beg for rain. Don't let him fool you. The attack on the city will not change tomorrow. We must break Toad Stronghold."
A few people were left staring at Cheng Dalei, while the others dispersed to prepare for the siege tomorrow. But there were seeds left in their hearts, and they vaguely felt as if they were falling into that strange atmosphere again.
At dawn the next day, the army was ready to go, with trebuchets, ladders and other siege equipment in front, shield soldiers at the back, and cavalry ready to go. The army was so dense that it was impossible to see the end.
At the top of the city, Cheng Dalei was still circling, muttering.
"Huh, death is imminent, and it won't change anything if you pretend to be a ghost." The eldest prince rode on the horse and waved his hand: "Come in..."
Click!
Suddenly there was a thunder, dark clouds gathered, accompanied by lightning and thunder, and heavy rain poured down.
The heavy rain pounded on the body, the powerful horses were frightened by the thunder and roared loudly, the soldiers were in panic and the horses were in chaos, making it difficult for the army to attack.
The eldest prince held his words in his chest, stuck his hands in the air in embarrassment, and was stunned for a long time: "Retreat the troops."
Finally, everyone was immersed in that strange atmosphere again.
