All the arrows stored in the guardhouse were carried to the city wall, and a group of soldiers were responsible for impregnating the arrows with oil.

Daohua saw several catapults on the city wall. After thinking about it, she asked Dongli to find a batch of porcelain and earthen jars and fill them with oil.

Gu Jian, Guo Ruomei, and Chu Lang all stood around Dao Hua in a protective posture.

Seeing Daohua's calm expression and discussing the matter of defending the city with Dongli in an orderly manner, the three people's faces were filled with relief.

"Your son is really lucky to have such a good wife." Chu Lang muttered to Guo Ruomei in a low voice.

Even if Yan Yatou does nothing, she just stands on the city wall, which is a boost to morale.

If it were any other lady, she probably wouldn't have the courage to go up to the tower, let alone offer advice to defeat the enemy.

Guo Ruomei glanced at him sideways: "That's because Yang'er is excellent."

Chu Lang nodded repeatedly, as if everything Guo Ruomei said was right: "Most people didn't think highly of Yan Yatou at first, but you and I can see clearly that this girl is a good wife for a prosperous husband."

"Except for her family background, how can she be any worse than those noble girls in other aspects? So, this marriage doesn't necessarily have to depend on family status."

"Fortunately you supported them in the beginning."

Guo Ruomei glanced at the rice flowers with a smile, and secretly felt proud of her original discernment.

Time passed by little by little, and the sky gradually became brighter.

Outside the city gate, Xiao Yechi paused his attack and looked at the burned soldiers and burned ladders, his face clouded.

After daybreak, he also saw Yan Yiyi standing on the city wall.

Just in time, Daohua also cast her gaze.

Seeing Xiao Yechi looking at her with a sinister look on his face, Daohua frowned.

At this moment, the child in her belly moved. Daohua quickly stretched out her hand to support her belly: "Is the baby scared? Don't be afraid, Mom will help you vent your anger."

Daohua was silent for a moment, and after thinking about it, she pointed at Xiao Yechi with her index finger, then crossed her neck with her thumb, and finally pointed her thumb to the ground, looking at Xiao Yechi outside the city with contempt.

.

This sudden scene made Xiao Yechi stunned for a moment, and then he became furious. He could see that Yan Yiyi was provoking him.

Damn it!

Who gave her the confidence and confidence?

Even other people on the city wall looked at Daohua in surprise, but they were even more surprised because they felt that Daohua just now was so domineering.

Chu Lang was very interested in the gesture just now and approached Daohua: "What did you mean by that gesture just now?"

Daohua: "...Owl Head."

Chu Lang was confused and said: "I have to learn this gesture carefully."

Daohua didn't say much and looked outside the city again.

At this moment, the Xiliao army moved again. Perhaps knowing that they could not climb the city wall with ladders, Xiao Yechi had people move the catapults out.

While they were still placing the catapults, Dongli commanded the guards on the city wall to launch the first attack.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Cans filled with oil were thrown off the city wall one by one and hit the Xiliao army. Then, with a 'swish' sound, dozens of flaming arrows were shot down.

"Retreat, retreat quickly!"

Xiao Yechi yelled while riding back.

After a while, all the trebuchets brought by Xiao Yechi were burned.

The attack failed again. Xiao Yechi roared several times angrily. Looking at the tall walls of Ganzhou City, he felt anxious and angry.

Damn Wei Hongcai, if he had worked harder, he wouldn't have had to attack Ganzhou City so hard. Everything would have been destroyed in the hands of this guy.

The trebuchets that cannot attack at close range and attack from a distance are gone, and now only archers are left.

"An archer and a shield soldier attack the people on the wall with all their strength."

He doesn't have time to waste here. Once Daxia reinforcements arrive, not only will he not be able to capture Yan Yiyi, but he may also fall into trouble.

The Daxia army already occupies a favorable terrain and still holds oil in their hands. When they saw the Western Liao army pressing down, they kept throwing oil cans downwards, and then there were arrows burning with flames in the sky.

The Xiliao army was sniped back again.

"Prince-in-law, we can't keep going like this. We have already lost nearly 10,000 people." The deputy general said to Xiao Yechi worriedly.

Xiao Yechi gritted his teeth: "Stone paint is precious. I don't believe that Ganzhou City will reserve a large amount of stone paint. Let me continue to attack until it is used up."

At this moment, he no longer cares about the dead soldiers. If he returns without success, his losses will be even heavier, and the Xiliao royal family will probably take advantage of him and squeeze his interests.

He could have divided Xiliang's territory in half, but because his strength was weakened, the issue of dividing Xiliang will be discussed again.

The surrounding Xiliao generals were a little helpless. This was clearly asking the soldiers to die, but Xiao Yechi had already given the order, so they could only follow it.

Xiliao launched another attack, but the result was the same as the previous times, and they were quickly forced back.

Near noon, the servants of the Xiao Mansion came over carrying food.

"Why is Xiao Yechi so stupid? You know you can't defeat us, but you still let the soldiers die again and again." Chu Lang shook his head and said while eating steamed buns.

Daohua: "He probably wants to use up all the oil in our hands."

Speaking of oil, Guo Ruomei immediately asked: "Isn't there not enough oil in the city?"

Daohua smiled and said: "Mom, don't worry, there are enough oil pipes."

Xiao Yeyang stored a large amount of oil in Ganzhou City, perhaps to prevent Ganzhou City from being besieged one day.

With oil in hand, even if there are fewer guards in the city, they can still hold on for a long time.

Outside the city gate, looking at his soldiers, Xiao Yechi was already a little numb after attacking and being blocked again and again.

But he doesn’t believe in evil!

How much stone paint can be found in Ganzhou city?

He knew that there were very few places producing stone lacquer in the entire Great Xia. No matter how much the emperor favored Xiao Yeyang, how much stone lacquer could he give him?

The attack of the Xiliao army continued until the evening. Seeing that there were less than 30,000 soldiers left, Xiao Yechi felt desolate in his heart.

The father is like this, and so is he. The situation is obviously in their favor, but they just can't win.

Is this really God’s will?

Will God not allow the eight kings to conquer the world?

However, my father is the emperor’s favorite prince. The throne of Daxia should have been passed on to my father. It is the current emperor of Daxia who has taken away the glory and power that should have belonged to my father and him.<

/p>

What's wrong with him taking it back now?

The successive failures made Xiao Yechi somewhat doubtful about life.

At this moment, a sentry ran over in a hurry: "Prince-in-law, it's not good, Daxia's reinforcements have arrived."

Xiao Yechi's expression changed: "Why did the reinforcements come so quickly?!"

The deputy general on the side said quickly: "After all, there are Xiao Yeyang's family members in the city, Xiao Yeyang will definitely make arrangements in advance."

The sentry continued: "Prince-in-law, the iron cavalry trained by Xiao Yeyang is only a dozen miles away from here."

The deputy general looked at Xiao Yechi: "Prince-in-law, let's retreat. We can't attack Ganzhou City. Although the cavalry is small in number, its combat effectiveness is very strong. If we encounter them, we will probably suffer heavy losses."

Xiao Yechi knew that the deputy general was telling the truth, but he was just unwilling.

Seeing Yan Yi standing on the city wall, chewing white steamed buns and looking at him provocatively, Xiao Yechi's heart surged and he felt like vomiting blood.

After a while, Xiao Yechi gritted his teeth and said: "Withdraw!"

On the city wall, Daohua watched the Xiliao army retreat with joy on her face: "Master, mother, Uncle Chu, and Xiao Yechi have withdrawn. Our reinforcements must have arrived."
Chapter completed!
