The World of Yellow Sky

The nearest army had just left Tan County, and it took two or three days of rapid march to return.

As long as you persist for two or three days, the troops from all over the country will be able to continuously return to defense.

"Chen Zong has already led his troops to the city, the gates of the Sifang City have been closed, and letters of help have been sent to the cities."

"well……"

Hearing that Chen Deng had led his troops up the city wall and closed the city gate, Lu Kang felt a little relieved.

"Prepare the horse, I will go to the city wall immediately."

Lu Kang finally regained his composure, he no longer needed the support of others, and stood firm.

"correct……"

Lu Kang was about to walk out of the government office when he suddenly thought of something.

"Zi Zhong."

"I'll take charge of the defense of the outer city first. There will be insufficient defenders. You should quickly go to Chengcheng to recruit strong men to help defend the city."

As Lu Kang said, he took out a seal from his sleeve.

"This is the seal of the Tan County Arsenal. With this seal, weapons can be withdrawn from the Arsenal."

Mi Zhu was slightly taken aback, and his body also froze.

Without waiting for Mi Zhu to pick it up, Lu Kang directly put the seal on Mi Zhu.

"The situation is critical, Zi Zhong should go quickly."

After finishing speaking, Lu Kang hurriedly turned around and left without looking at Mi Zhu.

Mi Zhu looked at the seal left by Lu Kang in his hand with a strange expression.

"My lord..."

An attendant who came with Mi Zhu took a step forward and looked at the seal in Mi Zhu's hand with a strange expression.

"Unexpectedly, at this time, Lu Kang would actually give me the seal of the arsenal."

Mi Zhu held up the seal in his hand, the corners of his mouth raised, and a sneer appeared.

"Go back to the mansion, call all the doormen in the mansion, and let them go to the arsenal to gather..."

Mi Zhu looked at Lu Kang's retreating back, his voice was low and terrifying.

"After enduring this idiot for so long, it's time to reap the rewards."

……

When Lu Kang hurriedly boarded the tower, the situation in front of him almost made Lu Kang's heart stop beating.

Just above the field to the east of Tan County, the dark Ming army came like a tide, and its vanguard had even rushed to the edge of the city.

Numerous ochre-yellow banners fluttered in the wind above the field, and the Ming army's formation was in full swing at this time.

Although the Ming army did not have heavy siege equipment, they carried a lot of simple ladders.

Lu Kang frowned. This was not good news. The Ming army carried siege equipment, even if it was simple, it could bring a huge threat.

Lu Kang looked at the crowd on the city wall, and he saw fear and panic on their faces.

So many Ming soldiers suddenly appeared outside the city, Rao Lu Kang himself felt frightened, how could these ordinary soldiers have a normal mentality.

If it weren't for the cover of the city wall, these soldiers would have already collapsed.

Lu Kang's heart that had been put down a little bit lifted again. He even suspected that the first wave of the Ming army's attack on the city would destroy the morale of the defenders.

"Your Majesty."

Just as Lu Kang was thinking about what to do, Chen Deng rushed over with several personal guards.

"The situation is not optimistic. The Ming army is resting. I'm afraid they will launch an attack in two or three quarters..."

Lu Kang's expression froze, two quarters of an hour was so urgent.

Mi Zhu might not have time to recruit strong men to the wall, so could he only rely on the [-] new recruits on the wall?

Lu Kang leaned against the railing, and the dizziness hit him again, making him feel unsteady again.

But at this moment, a burst of noise brought Lu Kang back to his senses.

"What happened?"

Lu Kang followed the sound and saw at a glance on the horse path, many soldiers with swords in their hands, and even some soldiers in armor rushed up the city wall from the horse path.

"This is?"

Lu Kang and Chen Deng walked down the tower together, just in time to bump into Mi Zhu who was wearing armored stomach.

"Zizhong, what's going on?"

"I heard that the situation was urgent, so I immediately summoned the retainers in the mansion, asked for some servants from various families in the city, gave these people the best equipment in the arsenal, and brought people to support first."

"Don't worry, I've left manpower in the city to recruit strong men. It won't be long before the strong men who help defend will be able to go up the wall."

"Zizhong... came... just in time..."

Lu Kang was speechless for a moment, too excited to speak.

There is no way out of doubts and doubts, and there is another village where the willows are dark and the flowers are bright.

I thought that I might not be able to defend the city, but I didn't expect Mi Zhu to arrive in time with such a strong army.

"If this battle is won, I will be Zi Zhong to show my merits in person."

"Then I would like to thank the envoy."

Lu Kang was emotional, and Chen Deng was also quite happy.

Neither of them noticed the fleeting killing intent in Mi Zhu's eyes.

Chapter 876 Sweeping the world!

As Mi Zhu brought one after another soldiers wearing armored stomachs and holding sharp knives, they rushed up the city wall along the horse path, and the recruits of the Han army on the city wall seemed to have found their backbone, and their morale stabilized. When he got down, the fear on his face faded a lot.

The morale of the army stabilized, and Lu Kang finally had time to think about why the Ming army came here.

"This Ming army probably came across the sea."

Chen Deng looked embarrassed, looking at the Ming army who were unloading the ladder from the carriage outside the city.

"Before the battle of Qingzhou, the Ming army transported soldiers from Liaodong to enter Donglai County."

"In the Bohai sea battle, our navy was defeated, and the Ming navy had no constraints and came from afar."

Lu Kang's face was solemn, Chen Deng's speculation was the most likely one.

He also considered whether the Ming army would transport troops by sea, but after all, Qingzhou is so far away from Xuzhou, even if it is near the sea, the probability of such a long-term shipping is extremely small in Lu Kang's view, and Xu An led the Ming army. The main force appeared outside Pingchang City, which made Lu Kang think that it was impossible for the Ming army to attack from the sea.

It's just that all the officials in Xuzhou have overlooked one point. The navy of the Ming army and the navy of the Han court have been two completely different armies since the establishment of the army.

When the Hanting navy first built its army, it was to serve as an offshore navy to defend the offshore.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Ming Army Navy, it was defined as an ocean-going navy. Whether it was the research and development of warships or the training of sailors, they all developed towards the ocean-going navy.

But Lu Kang and others didn't know about all this, they just thought about it with ordinary thinking.

It wasn't until now that the Ming army was approaching the city that they finally realized that the Ming army had come across the ocean.

"From the Sea"

Lu Kang repeated Chen Deng's words, frowning slightly.

Since the Ming army came from the sea, where did the Ming army land from?

The Ming army seemed so calm, how could they be so bold and come straight to Tan County? Isn't he afraid of being surrounded?

The Embroidered Clothes Emissary disliked the big eucalyptus in Xuzhou before, and the captured Yingwei and people related to the Yingwei were beheaded and killed more than a thousand people.

With the mobilization of troops and martial law on all sides, it is absolutely difficult for news to leak out

How did all the secret information and news come to him?

"My lord, can I take a step to speak?"

Just when Lu Kang was thinking, Mi Zhu stepped forward and whispered.

"Ok?"

"I have something important to report."

Seeing Mi Zhu's serious expression, Lu Kang nodded subconsciously. It was the first time that Mi Zhu was so serious.

Now it is a critical moment, Mi Zhu said that there is something urgent, maybe there is a problem in the city.

Lu Kang followed Mi Zhu towards the city tower. He had been thinking about it just now, but he didn't notice why the armored soldiers brought by Mi Zhu were basically concentrated on the city walls around him.

"Zi Zhong, there is a problem in the city, let's talk about it here."

Lu Kang stopped in his tracks and walked a certain distance. He also noticed that something was wrong with the surrounding atmosphere.

Mi Zhu brought these family soldiers and retainers, as if they were a little too close.

"To tell you the truth, there is indeed a problem in the city."

Seeing Lu Kang stop, Mi Zhu also stopped walking towards the tower, but he didn't stop, but walked towards Lu Kang.

"what is the problem?"

"I know why the Ming army dared to come here with light troops. I am afraid that the Ming army is now as if it is in the palm of our hands in Xuzhou. I am afraid that there is an internal response from the Ming army in this city."

"Internal response!?"

Lu Kang's expression was slightly condensed, and he was startled. Just as he was about to ask again, he suddenly felt wet in his abdomen, and then a severe pain hit him suddenly. He only felt that the energy in his body was rapidly disappearing.

"This"

Everything happened so suddenly that Lu Kang still didn't understand what happened.

No one came to help him, and no one came to help him.

There were noisy human voices in his ears, and there were bursts of extremely shrill and sharp sounds, which he had never heard before, and seemed to come from outside the city.

Lu Kang fell heavily to the ground, his eyes were blood red.

He saw that the guards around him also fell to the ground one by one at this time, and the ones wielding the butcher knives were those armored soldiers brought by Mi Zhu.

The severe pain from the abdomen made Lu Kang miserable. Everything changed too fast. He still hasn't recovered his senses and thought clearly about the connection of these things.

A shadow hung over his head, blocking all his vision.

Lu Kang raised his head with difficulty, and saw Mi Zhu who was wiping the blood from his hands.

An ocher-yellow banner was raised high and stood behind Mi Zhu.

"you"

In an instant, all the information was connected together, flashing across Lu Kang's mind like lightning.

Mi's family of Qu County

Qu County is right next to the sea, and there is a natural port nearby. The water village of Xuzhou Navy was once built in it, and the Mi family is a big family in Qu County.

"So it is"

Everything makes sense, why the Ming army was able to obtain such detailed information.

He put the task of preparing and delivering military rations on Mi's body. Mi's number of troops in various places is clear. With the help of Mi's power, the Eagle Wolf Guard can run amok in Xuzhou without any interrogation. Because Mi's caravan has special privileges.

"Those who kneel and surrender will not die."

"Anyone who resists will be punished!"

Mi Zhu was full of killing intent at this time, he didn't even look at Lu Kang who was lying on the ground.

In his eyes, killing Lu Kang was like killing a poodle, it was insignificant at all.

Chen Deng also fell to the ground at this time. He found out that the situation was wrong before Lu Kang, and also noticed Mi Zhu's attempt to rebel, but it was a pity that he was still a step late after all.

Just when Chen Deng wanted to get away and propose Lu Kang, a group of armored soldiers brought by Mi Zhu had already rioted and killed Chen Deng on the spot.

What Mi Zhu said before was that the temporary recruits and servants from other families were also false.

These armored soldiers are actually Mi Zhujuan's retainers and private soldiers in the mansion.
