Chapter 386 Siege (1)

Jinyuan City is not a big city in Daxia, but it also has a population of tens of thousands.

It was the morning, and it was a little cool in the early morning of May. Dozens of people sent a long dragon in front of the door and could only enter after paying the city fee.

There are farmers who want to enter the city with their own vegetables, hunters with mountain delicacies, and a few scholars who wear blue shirts and long swords, and they look like scholars who are traveling.

"Did the earth dragon turn over?" someone shouted loudly when he felt the trembling under his feet.

Everyone showed a look of panic and wanted to run into the open space. As long as the ground dragon turned over, it was not too serious, as long as it was in an open place, it could ensure safety.

You should know that there was just a terrestrial dragon turning over here more than ten years ago, and thousands of people were buried in collapsed houses late at night.

The people here still remember it freshly.

"Don't panic, it's a cavalry!" said a more knowledgeable scholar.

"Ordinary people cannot see the cavalry in the brigade, so it is normal for this misunderstanding." Another scholar patted his shoulder and said.

"I can't compare to the two brothers. To be honest, I have never seen the cavalry in the brigade. If the two brothers hadn't spoken, I'd probably thought it was a earth dragon turning over!" A thinner scholar bowed.

"How could there be cavalry coming here at this time?" The first scholar spoke in confusion. His name was Li Mengyuan, who was quite famous in his hometown, and his uncle even became the fifth-rank commander.

"That's the matter of the court. I think I'm going to the south!" The thin scholar was obviously not interested in this.

"Don't say that, the affairs of the country are the affairs of the world, and why does the affairs of the world have nothing to do with us? If you enter the court another day, you must pay attention to everything." Li Mengyuan warned.

"Brother said that he was taught." The thin scholar bowed, his name was Yao Zhengyan.

Several people turned their heads and looked. A black line could be seen on the horizon in the distance, and a long earth dragon was raised behind it.

"I really didn't expect that Wu Shenghou was defeated." In addition to Li Mengyuan and Yao Zhengyan, there was another person named Xu Pingzhi, who sighed at the beginning.

"I really didn't expect that the court had prepared for so many years, and the 700,000 army and countless food and grass were all put into the water." Li Mengyuan shook his head and said.

"Those Da Yao people are really like the legend?" Yao Zhengyan asked. Now that Da Xia has lost the battle, Da Yao is so magical about it on the streets and alleys.

Among the people, Da Yaoren wore leather skirts and were naked, and howled wildly during the war. An ordinary soldier was eight feet tall and could hold a stick of hundreds of pounds in his hands. He could knock a person away with one stick.

"Have you heard of it too?" Li Mengyuan laughed at first. He had also heard of this kind of rumor.

"It's not as exaggerated as it was, but it's really powerful. Ordinary soldiers of Dayao have the strength of a human wheel, and we can all be the team leader here. Even civilians can reach the human wheel. Fortunately, they don't have many people, and the entire Dayao has less than 100,000 troops. In addition, the officials are vulgar, do not understand military affairs, and do not understand military equipment. Therefore, they have always been alone." Li Mengyuan explained.

At this time, the news transmission was not well developed, and it was mostly spreading rumors. Very little is known to ordinary people about Dayao.

There are officials from military generals in his family who know more about Da Yao.

"That's very powerful, too." Yao Zhengyan thought for a while. He still knew the strength of the human wheel. An ordinary human wheel warrior could eat anywhere.

In the Daxia military system, ten people are one fire, and five fires are one team. A small team leader is in charge of fifty people.

As long as a warrior joins the army, he can control at least fifty people.

From this we can see the status of the human wheel warrior in Daxia.

It is a bit exaggerated that the other party is actually a human wheel warrior.

"Do they eat people?" Yao Zhengyan asked again. Many people on the streets and alleys said that the barbarians in the south had been swearing. He had been curious about this for a long time. Are there really people who eat people? Although Da Yaoren is barbaric and backward, he is still a human being.

Hearing this, Li Mengyuan also frowned and thought for a while and said, "I don't know much about this, but I think it's groundless, and it may not be without cause."

Just as the few people were chatting, a sudden scream came from the top of the city: "It's Da Yao people, close the city gate, close the city gate quickly."

At the same time, the drum sounded at the top of the city and was conveyed toward the city.

"Da Yaoren?" The three scholars were all shocked and turned their heads to look in the direction of the cavalry. They all wondered. This is the hinterland of Daxia. Why did Da Yaoren come here? Could it be that the border was lost?

Even if the border is lost, it is impossible to hit this place so soon, right?

Near them were the anxious shouts of others: "Let us in!"

After a while, the city gate slowly closed.

Li Mengyuan pulled a defender who was running down from the city wall and asked, "How many people have come? Can you keep it?"

The defender was anxious, but after being pulled, he threw it away twice but didn't get rid of it. He found that the other party was very strong. Seeing that he was still a scholar, he said, "I don't know. The original people in the military station were transferred away, but now there are only one thousand people in the city."

When Li Mengyuan heard this, he immediately let go of his hand.

"It's over!" Li Mengyuan's face turned pale.

The other two could hear clearly, and their faces changed terriblely.

"From the dust raised by the cavalry in the distance, there are at least two or three thousand people. Moreover, Dayao's soldiers are at least human wheels, like the most elite flying cavalry, only the earth wheel can enter. A thousand people cannot defend at all." Li Mengyuan murmured to himself.

When Daxia advanced south to attack, most of the soldiers in the domestic military station were drawn, and under normal circumstances nothing would happen. After all, there were still some defenders in each city.

But now that Da Yao is here, the defense line composed of these defenders is too weak and almost shattered when it is pulled.

"Who is talking nonsense? I will kill you first if you talk nonsense!" A man cursed not far away.

Li Mengyuan looked up and found that the other party was looking at the captain. He corrected his mind and apologized: "Sorry, I lost my mind for a moment."

Although his face was pale, he could barely calm down.

"What should I do now?" the other two looked at him.

"First find a place to hide. Now there is a mess, don't stay outside." Li Mengyuan hurriedly pulled the two of them into the city.

The city is now in chaos.

I heard that Da Yaoren was calling, and there were anxious shouts of adults everywhere, children cried, and soldiers were riding horses in the city, shouting: "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

"Is it really impossible to hold on?" Xu Pingzhi whispered.

"Difficult!" Li Mengyuan shook his head.

"But it's not that there's no chance. There should be many masters from martial arts sects in the city. If they are all gathered together, it might be of some effect."

Li Mengyuan knew that even this way, hope would be slim.

But this is the only chance.

If it is a battle between the two armies, there is no chance at all.

But if they defend the city, they can still give some help.

If you are lucky, Da Yaoren may switch to other cities after discovering that Jinyu City is not easy to eat.

"Those Da Yao people probably didn't come from the border, they might have come from the Lianyin Mountains. They couldn't have siege equipment. How could they break the city wall?" Xu Pingzhi asked.

"So there is still a first-line opportunity. It depends on whether the masters of the martial arts sects can block the opponent from rushing into the city to open the city gate." Li Mengyuan explained.

You should know that the city gates nowadays are usually made of wooden boards thick with two layers of iron boards, which is to prevent experts from breaking the city gate.
