The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 81

Under the city of Jing'an in Anzhou, countless people's heads surged. They were dressed in rags, their faces were sallow, and their eyes were full of boundless fear.Holding a simple wooden stick in his hand, or simply charging towards Jing'an City with bare hands.Behind them, thousands of golden wolf cavalry wielded their sabers and hacked to death those who ran at the rear mercilessly. Some people wanted to escape, but they were shot like hedgehogs by flying arrows.

The tens of thousands of cannon fodder were old, weak, sick, and disabled who were plundered from nearby villages and county towns by the Golden Werewolves. They drove them to Jing'an City and forced them to risk their lives to attack the city.Anyone who dares to resist, kill!Escapers, kill!Laggards, kill!During the triple killing order, hundreds of people were tortured to death by the golden werewolves.The rest of the people were so scared that they trembled and didn't dare to think any more.He could only attack the city desperately, hoping that after the city was broken, the golden wolf would spare his life.They didn't know at all that in the previous siege battle, those people who were driven to attack the city were all beheaded and killed after the city was broken.The golden werewolves don't need these old, weak, sick and disabled, they only need young women and healthy youths.

At the head of Jing'an City, the defenders looked sadly at the people staggering below the city, and the bows and crossbows in their hands could not be shot no matter what.

Anzhou garrison general Li Hong saw this scene with a livid face. He pulled out his sword and glared at the crowd and shouted: "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and shoot arrows. Once the golden werewolf climbs the city wall, we will all die! Quick/shoot!" "

"But, there are some ordinary people down there. We..." someone whispered.

, "Stupid!" Li Hong scolded, "The people in the city have been hijacked by the golden werewolves, and they can't help themselves. If we don't stop them, Jing'an City will be in danger. Think about the hundreds of thousands of people in Jing'an City, you Still indifferent? Quick/Shoot!"

Li Hong's words finally resonated with the defenders. There are hundreds of thousands of people behind him who need to be protected by him, and his family is also behind him.If the golden werewolves were allowed to enter the city, the consequences would be unimaginable.So, under the orders of all the generals, a sharp arrow shot out of the city with a powerful crossbow.A boundless rain of arrows covered the sky, like black clouds in the sky, gloomy and terrifying. "Hey!" The arrow sounded and turned into a black lightning into the world. The countless people who charge fell down, and the blood splashed on the ground.The momentum of the charge was destroyed at once, and a wave of arrows emptied thousands of people. Nearly half of the people who fell down were terrified, and they turned and fled one after another, ignoring the threat of the werewolf.On the city wall, everyone had tears in their eyes, silently watching the fleeing people go away.

The Golden Werewolves didn't care about this, and all the people who retreated were hacked and killed by them one by one.In the end, in desperation, they could only retreat for the time being, and drive the remaining people aside for the next siege.

Bahan stood in front of the big tent, looking at the tall Jing'an City, frowning.Jing'an City now has more than 5 troops. Although most of them are newly recruited civilians, they are still a huge threat to the army in defending the city.In terms of numbers, one's own side is already far behind the other side.It may be unrealistic to want to capture this city.In this regard, Bahan felt a little helpless. The tribal leaders and nobles under his command reaped a huge harvest during this trip to the south, exceeding what they had earned in more than ten years.Once these supplies and slaves are transported back to the tribe, they will not have to worry about survival for several years.But because of this, everyone's fighting spirit began to slacken, and no one wanted to die anymore.Some people have even proposed to themselves more than once the idea of ​​going back early.For this reason, they had to plunder Tianwu people everywhere to serve as cannon fodder. Although they could reduce the number of deaths, their combat power was almost zero. Apart from consuming some bows and arrows of the opponent, it was useless at all.

"Pass down the order and continue to send people to catch the Tianwu people. I want to see how many bows and crossbows there are in this state city to consume. Anyway, they will kill their own people. Hmph!" Bahan was helpless against the negative challenges of the tribes , had no choice but to compromise and use the Tianwu people to consume the opponent's resources.

The next day, the Golden Werewolves gathered more than 3 people at once. This time, they rushed to build hundreds of siege ladders, forced the people to carry the ladders, and began to drive them towards the city like yesterday.

The crying people were driven forward, and after hundreds of people were shot and killed behind them, they had to start scrambling to run forward.Before the war, some golden wolf translators assured everyone that as long as they could help the golden werewolves break through the city, they would not only be released after the war, but would also be given some rewards.But if you don't fight hard, the corpse on the wooden pole behind you is an example.Under a burst of coercion and temptation, he had no choice but to risk his life to attack the city.As for the life and death of the hundreds of thousands of people in the city, it is not in their consideration at all.

"Kill! Break through the city to survive! Kill!" Someone screamed frantically for courage.The next moment, he was shot by the arrows flying from the top of the city, and he swallowed his last breath unwillingly.

A ladder tower went up to the top of the city, and countless unarmed people began to climb up.Li Hong pushed away the ladder in front of him with all his strength, and roared: "All soldiers, kill! Don't let these people rush to the top of the city and disrupt our defense." As he said, he poked his head out from the side with a sword The people stabbed down the city wall.

Needless to say, Li Hong, everyone is desperately trying to prevent the people from climbing to the top of the city, because they know that once the top of the city is occupied by these people, the range of activities and defensive formation of the defenders will be disrupted.At that time, once the golden werewolves below take the opportunity to board the city, the situation will be reversed.

The determination and desperation of the defenders prevented the Golden Werewolf from taking the opportunity to seize the top of the city, and could only continue to use the people to consume the defenders' physical strength and resources with their flesh and blood.

While Li Hong was fighting, a middle-aged man dressed as a housekeeper came to Li Hong in fear, and asked in a trembling voice: "I have seen the general, the younger one is from the state pastoral mansion, my master sent me here Ask General Li if Jing'an City can be defended?"

Li Honghengjian glared at the steward, and snorted coldly: "What is the meaning of the Lord State Shepherd asking you to ask me this? Tell the Lord State Shepherd for me that my Jing'an City is as solid as gold, please sit in the city and dispatch Logistics. As for the rest, don’t think too much about it.”

The steward stood there with a smirk, and continued: "General, the Golden Werewolves are powerful now, driving those people to attack the city, intending to consume our supplies. The general may not know this, because the Golden Werewolf's surprise attack, our military supplies in Jing'an City There is an extreme shortage, the food and grass in the city can only be used by tens of thousands of troops for less than ten days, so I ask the general to make plans early."

"So little?" Li Hong was slightly startled. With less than ten days' worth of food and grass, how could he resist the golden werewolves?According to intelligence, the reinforcements mobilized by the court will take at least half a month to arrive. At this time, it is said that there is no food? "What are you talking about? How could there be no grain in such a huge state city? Those grain merchants and grain sellers, as well as the noble families in the city, who didn't hoard some grain? Wouldn't Master Zhou ask them to borrow some?"

"Hey, my lord general. My lord has borrowed it a long time ago, but we only borrowed about a thousand shi in total, which is barely enough for the army to last for ten days. Our lord has tried his best."

"Nonsense!" Li Hong was furious, "there are many noble families in the city, and money and food come in and out frequently on weekdays. How could there be no food at this time? Please tell Lord Zhou that if the defenders have no food to eat, Jing'an City will not be able to survive. For the sake of everyone's wealth and lives, food must be provided to overcome the difficulties together. In the face of such a crisis, how can those noble families sit idly by? I hope the state shepherds will find ways to raise food and grass, otherwise, we will Die with the city."

The housekeeper opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but Li Hongyu turned around and killed the enemy earlier, ignoring him.

"Hey! After all, he is a new general, so he doesn't know much about this place. It's so hard to make those selfish scholars and nobles pluck a chicken feather." The butler shook his head, seeing the situation. Unable to negotiate, had to go back and report.
