Late at night, the wind is a bit cold today, and there is a chilly smell in the air.
"General Zhao, I feel something is wrong down there." On top of the city wall of Tierong County, a guard whispered to Zhao Saiyi who was standing aside.
"Are you hallucinating from hunger? I have another steamed bun here. Take it and eat it." Zhao Saiyi scolded with a smile, took out a piece of drawer cloth from his arms, opened it, took out a piece of dough steamed bun and handed it to the guard. .
"I can't have it. You can keep it. You are our high combat power. You are better than us when you are full." The guard shook his head and rejected Zhao Sai's steamed buns.
Zhao Saiyi felt uncomfortable as he looked at the guards who kept swallowing their saliva. These guards were all young, some of whom were fifteen or sixteen years old. They were sent here to join the guard group at a young age in order to protect the family.
Since the city was besieged, Zhao Sai had gone to see the city lord Kong Bai countless times, wanting to lead troops out of the city to fight the attack. Some people even volunteered to cooperate with the escort group to go out of the city to fight the attack.
But for some reason, the city lord Kong Bai didn't agree. The first few times Zhao Sai went to see him, the city lord Kong Bai told him that the time had not come yet. The more times he went to look for him, the city lord Kong Bai became annoyed. Zhao Saiyi couldn't see the city lord at all.
Counting on your fingers, the general purchasing team in Tierong County only buys the whole city's food for one month. Because of the high temperature here, there is no way to store more food. Therefore, since the Tiedang Gang began to siege the city half a month ago, this A month's worth of food was forcibly compressed.
Originally, a person could eat two kilograms of grain a day, but now he can eat half a kilogram of grain a day. Because he didn't know how long the Tiedang Gang would be besieging the city, they tried to reduce the people's daily food intake as much as possible.
It's okay for warriors. Their physical constitution and practice can reduce their food intake, but that's not the case for ordinary people and guards. Many young people are just growing up. Don't talk about nutrition, just eat enough. Less than.
They are so hungry...
"I order you to eat the steamed buns." Zhao Sai handed over the dough buns again.
The guard looked at Zhao Sai with gratitude, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Eat quickly, others will snatch it from you soon." Zhao Sai said as he stuffed the bun into the guard's hand.
The guard held back the tears and took a hard bite of the steamed bun. He couldn't hold back the tears any longer. He turned around, squatted on the ground and ate the bun in three bites with tears in his eyes.
Zhao Saiyi nodded happily. To be honest, after half a month, he was also very hungry. Even though he was a transcendent warrior, he couldn't bear to eat for a long time.
At this moment, he also heard some subtle sounds, and he stuck his head out of the city wall and looked down.
There was a sudden fog tonight, and the fog filled the city. The visibility from the top of the city was only three meters, and they couldn't see what was going on below.
"Send the order, no sleep tonight, everyone please cheer up, the enemy is likely to launch an attack tonight." Zhao Sai said in a deep voice.
He had to guard against the visibility of three meters. If the enemy launched an attack, by the time they discovered it, they would only have three meters of preparation time, which was simply not enough.
The guards who had just finished eating the steamed buns hurriedly ran to deliver the order. Soon the guards who were on duty tonight all paid attention to it. They stayed at their posts and did not dare to rest for a moment.
As the sky gradually cleared up, the fog under the city also dissipated. Zhao Saiyi glanced across the city and found that the Tiedang Gang had not changed much. There were still densely packed tents.
Suddenly, Zhao Sai felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it carefully, he immediately discovered the problem, that is, there was no fire in the iron stall kitchen for cooking this morning.
"Something's wrong! Be careful of enemy attacks!" Zhao Saiyi slapped the city wall and shouted.
The moment he finished speaking, a huge explosion sounded. On the mountain to the east of Tielong County, an artillery piece was blown into the sky, and it was raining down on the city with billowing black smoke.
"The enemy is coming from the east!" Soon a guard came over panting and reported.
"One group of people will guard the city gate, and the rest will follow me to Dongshan!" Zhao Saiyi drew out his long knife and pointed directly in the direction of Dongshan.
Just as he led his men towards Dongshan, behind them, an artillery piece in Xishan was also destroyed.
Zhao Saiyi stopped and looked around, and saw that there was also fire on the west mountain.
"Damn it! These beasts must have moved secretly under the cover of night last night!" Zhao Sai was so angry that he stamped his feet, but now there was fighting happening all over the place and he couldn't take care of it alone!
"If you continue to move forward, you will definitely kill the bandits in Dongshan." After Zhao Sai gave his instructions, he quickly ran in the direction where he came from.
On the city wall, Zhao Saiyi looked anxious, and soon he returned to the center of the city wall, right above the wall gate.
There is still a team of people here, each team consists of a thousand people. Now that the Tiedang Gang has dispersed to both sides, he can take the remaining team to Xishan for support.
"Everyone, follow me!" Zhao Saiyi shouted while leading people to run towards Xishan.
When there was nothing above the city gate, a head slowly emerged from the tent below the city.
"Brothers! Charge for me!" Dang Shen took the lead and jumped up directly. With his extraordinary cultivation, it was easy for him to go directly to the city wall.
Behind him, a dense crowd of iron stalls rushed out of the densely packed tent.
Zhao Saiyi, who was leading the team towards Xishan, stopped because he saw someone jumping from the city wall behind him.
And the person who jumped off the city wall was Dang Shen. When he faced a group of ordinary guards in the extraordinary state, he was like a wolf entering the sheepfold and easily took control of the city gate.
Zhao Sai was stunned. He was shown off by the other party, who pressed him to the ground and rubbed him three times in a row.
The guards following him also knew that something was wrong, and they all looked at Zhao Sai nervously.
At this time, Zhao Sai only had Dang Shen in his eyes. Dang Shen looked at Zhao Sai on the city wall. This scene had happened before. Zhao Sai's position had not changed, and Dang Shen came into the city from outside the city. Moreover, this scene At that time, Codonopsis' hand had already landed on the city gate's switch.
Dang Shen smiled and waved to Zhao Sai, and then landed hard on the city gate switch. With a loud bang, the extremely heavy and huge city gate slowly rose.
As the city gate rose, deafening shouts of killing echoed in the city gate.
"It's over, Tierong County has been destroyed." Zhao Sai's legs weakened, and he staggered and almost fell.
The guards around him quickly supported him. At this time, he was still the backbone and could not fall down.
"Tie Rong County Guards listen to the order! Charge with me! Kill these intruders, charge!" Zhao Sai pointed his sword at the city, and his voice spread far away with the blessing of true energy.
