Chapter 84
Nanhai County is connected to Shiwan Dashan in the west, which belongs to the frontier of the Central Plains Dynasty in the southwest direction. The original county city was Panyu. With the increase of the population in the rule, another county city was built to defend against barbarian invasion.

The height of the city is thirty feet, and the diameter is more than thirty miles. It is a rare majestic city in Jiaozhou. It is divided into inner and outer cities. The inner city is ten miles away. The place where the people live.

Since its establishment, the city has experienced more than [-] barbarian attacks, and three of them were captured. However, since the Central Plains Dynasty grew stronger in Jiaozhou, there has been no precedent for barbarians to invade the city for hundreds of years.

On the wall of the inner city, Shi Feng, the prefect of the county, personally climbed to the top of the city to command. The besieged barbarians outside were densely packed and ready for the next attack at any time. We could vaguely hear the sound of crying from the outer city. Think, this is the barbarians burning, killing and looting in the outer city.

"Beasts"

Shi Feng cursed angrily, and at the same time complained to the captain of the county. Tang Tang's seven-foot boy was frightened and sick by the barbarians, and he would rather obey the military law than come out to command. .

"Master, I heard that all the soldiers and horses in the state were sent away by the court to suppress the bandits, can we still hold on?" The guards looked at the tens of thousands of barbarians below the city and couldn't help feeling terrified.

Shi Feng glared at the soldier, if not for the fact that he was from his own clan and was diligent in his work, he would have killed the man who disturbed the morale of the army long ago.

Thinking that they will need their protection in the upcoming battle, he only explained in a low voice: "Actually, the Zhoucheng faction will retreat if they don't send reinforcements, and they don't know how to farm and occupy the city. After they have grabbed enough, they will retreat."

The guards felt chills when they heard it, and what the adults said was that this was sacrificing the people in the outer city to satisfy the barbarians, and that was tens of thousands of people.

Taking a deep look at Shi Feng, he shut up and stopped talking.

The barbarian siege has always been like this. After grabbing enough money and women, they will automatically retreat. The same is true for the barbarians now. They allocate a third to plunder, and the rest defend the inner city from possible attacks.

The chiefs of the Beishan tribe and the Xuanniao tribe stayed at the base of the city bored. The expected counterattack did not happen, and the people in the city still wanted to be scared out of their wits and watch their clansmen being robbed.

Shanqing, the head of the Beishan tribe, said contemptuously: "These Qing people are really useless, they dare not fight with an army of [-]."

"Isn't this a good thing? Qingguo is rich, and the outer city is enough for us to grab. If you have the energy to curse people, it's better to save your energy and spend it on Qingguo women." Xuanniao tribe leader Bird Cheng laughed, thinking about Qingguo women. With that fair skin and delicate face, his body suddenly felt hot.

"Report, the army of the Ida Department has arrived and is entering the city." Some barbarians came to report.

Shanqing and Niaocheng showed doubts. Didn't the Ida Department make an appointment with them that Ida would attack Longchuan and they would attack Nanhai City, and that [-]% of the goods they robbed would be given to the Ida Department?Why are you here in the county now?

Could it be that the Ida Department wanted to share more property, and the two went to greet them with dissatisfied expressions.

Shan Qing was more vigilant, and asked, "Are you sure it's the Ida Department, not Qing Guo's officers and soldiers pretending to be it."

The barbarian hurriedly said: "We have checked, it is really a member of the Ida Department, and all three thousand warriors can speak barbarian."

"Humph"

Shanqing snorted angrily and continued walking towards the outer city. Although the county is more prosperous, there are two tribes who share it equally, and [-]% will be given to the Ida Department. It is really greedy for them to send troops here.

Just halfway through, they heard the sound of fighting coming from the front, and countless barbarians screamed in barbaric language. The two were shocked and fell for it.

Speeding up and rushing forward, when he came to the city gate, he found that the city gate had missed. Thousands of barbarians in charge of guarding the city gate were all killed in battle.

"This is a trap, the Ida Department has taken refuge in officers and soldiers"

Shan Qing roared, the barbarians fighting in front were indeed barbarians. Thinking of the Ministry of Ida's force to invite them to come, he immediately thought that this was a trick set up by them and the officers and soldiers, wanting to annex the two of them.

"Kill it, I will tear the high priest Ida into pieces"

Shanqing roared and rushed forward, it was Bird City who stopped Shanqing and said: "Don't be impulsive, they have too many soldiers and horses and we are not opponents, retreat quickly."

Looking at the officers and soldiers who have already entered the city and the barbarians from Jingtian, more than 5000 people have entered the city so far, even if there are still officers and soldiers coming from outside.

There are a total of [-] people in their two coalition forces. They lost [-] in a sneak attack on the outer city, and [-] were killed by the Ida Department just now. At present, there are only [-] barbarians.

"Go to the west city, the city wall over there is still in your hands"

Shan Qing's eyes were filled with blood and tears. This time, I don't know how many warriors died in South Sea City, and the stolen wealth and women couldn't be taken back. He hated the Ida Department even more in his heart, and vowed to take revenge with all the clan's army after returning.

Beishan and Xuanniao retreated in a hurry, discarding countless supplies along the way, and even many barbarians threw away their weapons in order to speed up their escape.

Shi Feng in the city saw this scene as if in a dream, and officers and soldiers really came to support him!
When he came to his senses, he hurriedly shouted: "Go out of the city and recover the outer city."

His face was full of surprise, the prefect didn't dare to defend the city and forced him to come here, he didn't expect to pick up such a great achievement, the prefect will definitely be punished if the city is lost, and he, a loyal minister who sticks to the city and finally regained the outer city, will the court not reward him .

The more I thought about it, the more excited I was. Three thousand officers and soldiers were sent out of the city to chase after the barbarians.

Shi Feng also ventured out of the city under the guard of his own soldiers, and he, who has always been timid for plotting great achievements, dared to come to the battlefield in person.

A few generals in the distance led officers and soldiers just ran towards this side, Shi Feng rushed to greet them, and shouted: "I am Shi Feng, the prime minister of Nanhai County, may I ask which general led the troops to come for reinforcements."

Several generals looked strange, and finally a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy rode out, with a strange smile on his face, and said condescendingly: "I am the chief of Longchuan, Li Qing."

"Li Qing?"

Shi Feng was puzzled, how could a mere master Li Qing command so many troops to rescue, this general is really humorous.

"The general is joking, how can Li Qing, a mere ninth-rank sesame official in Longchuan, be compared with the general?"

Shi Feng had a flattering smile on his face, but saw that the young general on the other side ignored him, and instead began to direct the officers and soldiers into the inner city, which made him very embarrassed, and his face turned red.

Looking at the officers and soldiers continuously entering the city, a flash of lightning seemed to flash through his mind, and he immediately understood how the rescue officers and soldiers would allow the retreating barbarians to enter the inner city instead of chasing them.

"No, it's a traitor"

Shi Feng was about to remind the officers and soldiers defending the city, but he found the smile on the face of the young general in front of him, unconsciously he had been guarded by soldiers and horses from the opposite side, and the steel knife in his hand gleamed coldly, so he shut his mouth immediately.

His expression was dull, and he hated himself why he was greedy for credit. Now that the inner city is lost, if this person is really Li Qing, there is no way for him to survive...

The army continued to enter the inner city. The officers and soldiers who originally guarded the city were driven to the bottom of the city, and the inner city was completely in their hands. Li Qing showed a satisfied smile on his face.

He rode forward and led the generals into the city.

 Ask for a recommendation ticket, I haven't asked for a ticket for a long time
