Heavenly Dao Formula

She is enjoying such risks. Xia Fan realized.

　　 Then they encountered several waves of scattered enemies along the way, but more of them were residents who had fled from the west. From these populations, Xia Fan also has a more detailed understanding of the situation in Xicheng District.

　　According to the refugees, the intruders have blocked several main streets, ransacked and looted the houses, and even kidnapped many residents who were too late to flee.

　　 The north wall and the pier facing the beach had changed hands half an hour ago. Before they fled, people and goods unloaded from the ship were still being transported into the city.

　　 "Not shipped out, but shipped in?" Ning Wanjun frowned, "Then what did they search for? Where did they go?"

　　 "The Cao Min doesn't know it! But... Cao Min thinks a little bit strange."

"Say."

　　 "The first place they go when they enter the house... is the kitchen, and all they take are grain and rice noodles."

　　 This is very unusual. The invaders of the Dongsheng Kingdom came by boat, and the number of people must be limited. If a large amount of materials were to be taken away, of course, the remaining manpower was used to carry the goods on the ship while maintaining the search. After all, no matter how barren Jinxia City is, it is also the capital of a state. If you want to maximize profits, it is not unusual to move for ten and a half months. Now that the other party is doing the opposite, the motive for the plunder is very suspicious.

　　 Xia Fan and the princess looked at each other, and the same thought came into their minds-maybe they didn't plan to grab a hand and leave.

　　 "Even in the face of Qiguo army that is a hundred times bigger than yourself?" Ning Wanjun said coldly, "Dongshengguo's appetite is too big, right!"

　　 Their previous assumptions only stayed within the scope of Shenzhou, but if it evolves into aggression between countries, the situation will become completely different.

　　 Not only the Shenzhou Army, the surrounding garrisons will also be deployed for support, not to mention that Qiguo also has naval forces — cross seas are not possible, and it is not difficult to block inland rivers and offshore operations. When the time comes, there will be a shortage of people and goods, no matter how you look at it, it will be a loss-making business.

　　 Why did the other party dare to make such a decision?

　　 Fortunately, the princess’s decision is the only correct one among many choices.

　　 Just a few days of stubborn resistance from the enemy will bring too many uncertainties to Jinxia, ​​let alone they want to use this as their own ocean springboard?

　　 Regardless of whether it can be achieved in the end, Dongshengguo will upset Jinxia City.

　　 "We have scored some people to rescue the trapped residents in Beicheng District." Xia Fan said, "The enemy's blockade will certainly not be too tight, they can't take care of so many people!"

　　 "The situation over there is unclear. Small teams are easy to be surrounded and eaten." Qiuyue objected, "We can't afford the alchemist, but without alchemy support, it is difficult for a small number of soldiers to resist the angry."

　　 "Or I will lead the team——"

　　 "No, you just follow me!" Ning Wanjun interrupted him without hesitation, "I can't take care of you when I'm far away."

　　 Xia Fan paused slightly.

　　 "If something happens to you, where can I go to find another Qi—— well, such an enlightened alchemist with such knowledge and talent?"

　　 Why does the other party’s praise sound so insincere?

　　 "I'm going now."

　　 Suddenly, a familiar voice rang from behind.

　　 Li squeezed through the crowd and walked in front of Xia Fan, "Of course, with my men."

　　 Fox demon's men? Xia Fan saw Shan Hui who was unresponsive next to her, and immediately understood that the emotional tengu had accepted and adapted to this statement deep in his heart.

"Xia Fan guessed it right. I just came back from there. There are indeed people guarding the entrance of the street, but usually there are only three or four people. If the residents hug each other and pick up the **** and shovel, they can actually make a way out. "

　　 "It can't be done." The princess shook her head. "As long as one family does it one by one, those who don't have their turn will get lucky. This is popular."

　　 "How is the situation outside the wall now?" Xia Fan asked.

"There are almost thirty-odd ships, and half of them haven't docked." Li put out the information he had detected one by one. "The guards of the Western Wall were killed, but from the signs, they were not Died in the battle of the city wall. In addition, all the people abducted by the other side were transported to the north.

　　 is near the Inland River to the north, and the salt field of the Wang family is also nearby.

　　 However, this alone cannot guess Dongshengguo's intentions. If they want to **** the population and bring them back to their home, it is obviously faster to go directly to the west gate.

　　 It’s just that the situation is still unclear. The princess’s troops are temporarily unable to take care of those who have been taken away. It’s already their best attempt to rescue the residents trapped in Beicheng District with the enemy.

　　 Thinking of this, Xia Fan nodded towards Li, "Be sure to come back before the sun sets."

　　 "So are you." The fox demon gave him a deep look, then turned and left the group.

　　 A quarter of an hour later, the forward line of the Princess Army finally advanced to the vicinity of the granary, but before launching an attack, it was suppressed by a fierce fire and returned to the streets.

　　 Accompanied by a few rapid roars, the corners of the houses on the street and the ground suddenly shot out clumps of debris, as if they were being run over quickly by something.

　　 The soldier who walked out of the street first fell down suddenly, and the rest of them immediately fell on the ground and shouted to the rear, "Go back! There is an iron cannon in front!"

　　 Obviously, it is not the first time that this team has seen a hot weapon. The response method can be described as veteran. The warnings spread one after another, and the chaos only spreads for a few breaths and then calms down. The personnel in the back evacuated into the alleys on the spot to make room for the soldiers who retreated in front.

　　 Seeing that the team was hindered, Ning Wanjun pulled Xia Fan and others onto the surrounding rooftops.

　　 By ascending the angle of view, Xia Fan actually saw a complete artillery position!

Dongsheng State used sandbags to build several low walls on the open space in front of the warehouse to resist the flow of arrows. Pikemen were lined up on both sides, and eight dark artillery were facing the four streets in the southeast. No matter which route the attack is taken, it will be bombarded from multiple angles~www.ltnovel.com~ The most important thing is that the area of ​​this vacant lot is really not small. If you want to run from the street to the warehouse, you must at least rush. At a distance of two hundred meters, there was no cover in the middle, or the bungalow that was a little closer, had also been demolished by the enemy.

　　 He didn't know whether he blamed the granary for being too distant from the residential area, or blamed the wooden houses of this era for being too easy to be demolished.

　　 Although Xia Fan had expected such a day when he was attacked by the East Sea Gang with a pistol in Fenghua County, he did not expect it to come so soon.

"This is troublesome." He Guicai, the last one who climbed up, looked around and frowned. "The border army is equipped with cavalry and fast horses, as well as alchemists who can restrain long-range projectile weapons... There is nothing here, I'm afraid I'll continue. It will be a hard battle. Your Majesty, Weichen recommends that you temporarily avoid the edge and wait until our side breaks the formation before entering the battlefield. Otherwise, even someone who is as strong as you might be affected by artillery fire... …"

　　 After speaking, his voice became smaller and smaller-because Ning Wanjun was watching him with a strange look.

　　 Then He Gui discovered that it was not only the Princess, but also Qiuyue and Xia Fan.

　　 "Ahem..." He cleared his throat stiffly, "Well, did the Weichen say something wrong?"

　　 "No, this is not your problem." Ning Wanjun shrugged, "After all, you haven't seen it before, and it's normal to have this worry. I won't take the lead this time, and of course neither will my subordinates."

　　 After speaking, she patted Xia Fan, "The main force in breaking the formation this time is the one in front of you."
