Chapter 83: The Curtain of War Opens

"I'll go there. If the third young master has already gone to Chiyang City, I'll come here immediately." Yao Qinghan said.

"That's all." Cai Qidong said.

Du Xuanying rushed to the road overnight. At dawn, he still hadn't arrived at Chiyang City. As a result, the scout came to report that the five hundred people who had supplemented Yang Wancai arrived.

This news made Du Xuan overjoyed, with five hundred more people, and the number of dragon-scale horse cavalry in his hand reached another two thousand. Previously, 5,000 barbarian cavalry were easily wiped out with two thousand. If he fought to the limit, even if he faced tens of thousands of barbarian cavalry, he would have the power to fight. What's more, how could Du Xuan foolishly fight with the barbarian army? As long as he uses the highly maneuverable characteristics of the dragon-scale horse, he can completely fly the barbarian army's kites.

"The third young master, the Mangou is ready to attack the city. This time, the barbarians sent most of the main forces, leaving only less than 5,000 people to guard the central army tent." Hu Benrui personally led a team of scouts to spy on the barbarian camp.

Du Xuan showed joy: "Good opportunity. Hu Benrui, you lead the scout camp and completely block the passages around Chiyang City. Barbarian scouts are absolutely not allowed to appear in these passages. Pay attention to the movements of the barbarian army at any time. Pay close attention to the battlefield situation and report to me every move of the enemy at any time!"

Du Changgeng stood on the city tower and looked at the barbarian army swarming in, and suddenly felt a chill coming from the depths of his heart. The barbarians were really active and stopped tempting. They were thunderous as soon as they came up.

"Xu Liyuan! Please inform us and use all the tricks you can use! Whether you can withstand the attack of the barbarians depends on this battle!" Du Changgeng shouted.

Xu Liyuan could hear that the general's tone was a little wrong today. Naturally, he had already seen the movements of the barbarian army outside the city wall. The barbarian's attack today was very different from yesterday.

"Put the tincture! You guys quickly boil the golden juice, and you will use it later! Don't be idle either. Roll the stones and roll the wood first! Pay attention later. When the dog is shooting, please hide and don't stand foolishly at the cliff and be the target of the dog!" Xu Liyuan shouted and directed the military and civilians to make emergency defense preparations.

In fact, most of the preparations had been made long ago. At this time, they were just made more. The city walls were filled with stones and rolling wood. A large iron pot was built not far away, and there was a raging fire below. The soup in the pot had begun to roll, emitting a pungent odor. Although the guards were all recruits, the military and civilians of the Chiyang Guard had never seen the guards of the city, and who did not know a move to defend the city? They just dealt with the cruel barbarians, and they could not bear the tragic scent.

Du Changgeng looked solemn. This was a war that was completely unsure. He didn't know whether Chiyang City could withstand this attack that was doomed to be stormy.

The commander of the Arsenal, Xiri Goulig, was a capable general of Lakshen, and Ximen's main attack was led by him. Xiri Goulig was a powerful general. He followed Lakshen across the barbarian grassland for many years and was also quite famous in the battle with Daqi. He was cruel by nature and slaughtered the city in Daqi many times.

"Men, capture this city! No sword sealing for three days!" Xirigoulige shouted loudly.

Xi Ri Goulige was actually preparing to massacre the city after conquering Chiyang City.

Everyone in Chiyang City was involved in this war because everyone knew what consequences would be after the city was destroyed. The tragic story has been staged countless times in the west of Daqi. The blood and cruelty of the barbarians are deeply understood by every Chiyang Guard.

Luo Xifeng was not guarding the general's mansion. At this time, she was like one of the most ordinary women in Chiyang City. They were using their meager strength to support the warriors on the city wall.

"When the war starts later, don't panic. If you hide near the wall, you can avoid the bows and arrows of the barbarians. My soldiers are using their flesh and blood to resist this disaster for us. When they come down, we will prepare hot vegetables and rice for them. If they are injured, we will bandage them. If they are killed, we will raise their children for them..." Luo Xifeng showed great calmness, not scared at all because of this upcoming cruel war.

A boy of about four or five was frightened by the tense atmosphere of war. Luo Xifeng walked over and placed his hand on the boy's face: "You can't cry. You will be the warrior of our Chiyang City in the future. Chiyang City will rely on you to defend in the future. Don't be afraid, children!"

"Will the barbarian dogs come in? Will they kill us?" the boy asked sobbing.

"No, they can't get in. As long as the people in Chiyang City work together, as long as the men in Chiyang City are not dead, they can't get in." Luo Xifeng said.

"But my father is dead. Yesterday, I was pierced by Mangou's arrow. Will I also be shot through the neck by Mangou's arrow?" The boy cried very hard.

"No, child. The bow and arrow of Mangou can't penetrate the walls of Chiyang City. Where is your mother?" Luo Xifeng looked around, wanting to see where the boy's mother was.

"My father is dead, my mother is sleeping at home, and I can't wake up no matter how much." The boy said aggrievedly.

"Hurry! Take me to your house." Luo Xifeng had an ominous premonition.

"Madam, the barbarians will call us right away. Let's go back as soon as possible." Duan said worriedly.

"No hurry. Child, take me to your house." Luo Xifeng gently held the boy's hand.

"Duan, what are you doing? Hurry up and tell Luo Yunnan and let them pay more attention to the situation of the Xicheng Gate. The main force of the barbarians is at the Xicheng Gate!" Du Changgeng shouted loudly.

Luo Yunnan is a thousand households in the guard camp. Luo Yunnan is Luo Xifeng's younger brother. The guard camp is so important that Du Changgeng naturally handed over to the person he trusts the most.

The military orders were as high as a mountain, and Du An could only order the two Du family members to take care of Luo Xifeng and quickly got on the horse and ran away to the guard camp.

Whoosh!

A cold arrow suddenly flew into Chiyang City and was nailed to the citron of a wooden house not far away. The arrow was deeply pierced into the wood, and the shaft was still shaking.

The curtain of siege opened! The barbarians officially launched an attack.

"Madam, the barbarians are sieging the city! Go back quickly!" a Du family servant said in a hurry.

"What are you panic?" Luo Xifeng glared at the man, "Walking against the edge of the house, you can't shoot the bow and arrow."

The two servants of Du's family were so scared that they didn't dare to say a word more by Luo Xifeng's momentum, even the child was scared.

"Don't be afraid of children. If we are a little more fierce, a dog will be afraid. Tell your aunt, where is your home?" Luo Xifeng quickly comforted the child.

"My home is there." The little boy said, pointing to an alley not far away.
