Take charge of Ascension

Chapter 317 Guangyang County

The land of Shu is mountainous, and it is a country built among the mountains. The so-called three roads and eighteen bends, one bend and one scenery, and the spiral path are difficult to walk on.

Mountainous landforms are not all peaks and mountains, and plain landforms also account for a large proportion, but they are much smaller than mountains.

Guangyang County is under the jurisdiction of Yizhou, which is the edge of the mountains of the Shu Kingdom, and a little further west is a wide plain.

There are many mountains in Shu, and there are not many plains. The only relatively large plain is divided into the territory of Yunzhou, and Guangyang County is at the junction of Yunzhou and Yizhou.

Guangyang County, at the junction of the two prefectures, is in an embarrassing position. The fertile Yunzhou Plain is in sight. Although it is a severe drought, the people living in the Yunzhou Plain can barely survive.

However, because Guangyang County belongs to Yizhou, there are many mountains and few fields in the territory. In case of drought, the life of the people under the rule will not be able to survive at all.

Thousands of miles away, hunger and death everywhere, definitely not an exaggerated adjective, but a real scene. Here in Guangyang County, it has reached the point of changing children to eat.

In Guangyang County, there are tens of thousands of people in just one county city. Under the rule of the county city, within a radius of a hundred miles, there are mixed counties and villages, and the number of people has reached hundreds of thousands.

There are six counties under the rule of Yizhou. Guangyang County is a relatively large county with a relatively large number of people. Several years of drought have left the people in Guangyang County with no room to survive.

Under such circumstances, it was a great opportunity for Taiping Dao to preach and develop. The person in charge of Guangyang County seized this opportunity very well.

Three years ago, the layout of the Taiping Road had already begun. This year, the Taiping Road was finally launched, and hundreds of thousands of people from Guangyang County were gathered together to attack the city of Guangyang County.

Hundreds of thousands of hungry people, the number of people is so large that it can be said to cover the sky and cover the earth. They can surround the city of Guangyang County and attack from all directions.

It's just that it's not easy to take down Guangyang County, which has a strong wall and a thick wall, without a sharp siege weapon.

In the Dao of Taiping, there are quite a few warriors with strong cultivation bases, not to mention innate warriors, there are also warriors in the Dao Accumulation Realm.

This is a very strong force, but the defenders of Guangyang County City are not weak, and they are as solid as a rock, resisting the attack of Taipingdao.

The failure of Taipingdao's repeated attacks made Iron Spear Xiucai have no choice but to go up to that peak, asking Zhang Jiao for a shot, that was their last hope.

Under the blue sky, there are white clouds, one after another, like a ball of cotton, if you step on it, it must be very soft.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, two rays of light galloped across the sky at an extremely fast speed, and in a blink of an eye, they traveled an extremely fast distance.

A martial artist who has cultivated the Golden Core Dao can not only fly in the air, but also not slow, like a bird, can cross the sky.

Although Zhang Jiao was very angry at the private actions of the people below, but in this predicament, Zhang Jiao couldn't ignore it.

Perhaps, feeling that his own strength was a bit insufficient, when Zhang Jiao decided to make a move, he also encouraged Pan Changhe to rush towards Guangyang County together.

After a journey of thousands of miles, under Zhang Jiao and Pan Changhe's imperial flight, it took only half a day to reach the boundary of Guangyang County.

Being led by Pan Changhe and flying high in the sky, Zhao Ji felt quite refreshed, with the strong wind blowing head-on, refreshing.

In the high sky, watching the giant cities drift by below, the peaks recede, and the magnificent mountains and rivers appear in the eyes.

When another huge city appeared below, a huge city tens of kilometers long and wide was built among the mountains, and in front of the huge city was an endless plain.

"Brother Pan, Guangyang County is here, let's go down."

Seeing a huge city below, Zhang Jiao's eyes lit up slightly, he notified Pan Changhe, and his body fell down.

The gates of Guangyang County City are closed in four directions, the suspension bridge is closed high, and a man in armor is guarding the city wall. Above and below the city, there are mottled traces, and a bloody and murderous atmosphere is fully exposed.

Due to the huge size of Guangyang County, with tens of miles in length and width, it is impossible to defend the walls on all sides without fifty thousand soldiers.

The guard of the county city is called Li Li. Although he is not a well-known general in the whole country, he is not weak to be able to achieve the position of guard of a city.

In Guangyang County, there were [-] elite soldiers, which were just enough to hold the city wall, but the soldiers also needed to rest during the protracted battle. If they couldn't take turns, their bodies would not be able to bear it.

Therefore, Li Li ordered to recruit tens of thousands of young and middle-aged men in the army city to form a reserve team to supplement the strength of the troops.

The insufficiency.

The sheriff of Guangyang County is a stupid official. If not for this, the situation in Guangyang County would not have fallen to this level.

When Taipingdao's army besieged the city, the county guard was so frightened that he passed out. After waking up, he didn't care about anything at all, and handed over all defense matters to Li Li.

Fortunately, the sheriff was an idiot, so he gave Li Li the power to be independent, to develop what he had learned in his chest, and to resist the troops of Taipingdao.

On the wide city wall of Guangyang County, half of the men in armor are on guard. Even though the Taipingdao army has stopped attacking the city, they still dare not relax their vigilance.

The other half of the soldiers, hiding in the back position, are taking a nap. The long battle, day and night, without a good rest, can't hold on at all.

Under Guangyang County, the county city, which is tens of miles long and wide, is surrounded by civilians with weapons. There are people all over the mountains and plains.

These are the siege soldiers organized by Taipingdao. They are not so much a large army as they are a group of hungry people. Everyone is dressed in tatters, their faces are yellow and emaciated, and they look like they have no flesh.

If you want to attack a city, let alone armor, you must have a weapon. However, among the 30 to [-] people, very few have real weapons in their hands. Most of them hold wooden sticks, with one end slightly sharpened , used as a weapon.

It's no wonder that such a group of mobs can't take down the big city of Guangyang County. It's no wonder that the mobs can win against elite soldiers and strong generals.

However, it doesn't mean that there are no elite soldiers on Taiping Road. On a slightly higher hillside, several people in brocade clothes are pointing at Guangyang County. Around them, there is a battalion of elite soldiers.

These are really elite soldiers, with neat armor, swords and guns, and every soldier is magnificent and extraordinary. Compared with the defenders in Guangyang County, they look more elite, but the number is relatively small, only [-].
