Cang Duan looked at Hei Yan resolutely, and said quietly: "I rescued you in the snow and took you back to Rab City. My father died in Rab City. You took me to escape from Rab City and killed you. Chasing soldiers, I am extremely grateful, you never abandoned me, I will always remember it in my heart!"

"In Xiangsui City, you fought for me, one against five, fierce beasts, and now I want you to fight for me again with your life? What reason do I have for you to fight for me?"

Hei Yan stared at the boy in front of him, and said: "Wu Xiang once said that there is no other way but to kill them all. I am not only for you, but also for myself. If I lose, I will die. You don't have to take what we have gone through. Everything is blamed on you."

"That's right, I don't even have a reason for you to fight..." Cang He smiled wryly, and then said in relief: "Then let me go out now, maybe my good uncle will let you go after seeing me... "

He smirked, then ran towards the gate, but was pulled back by Hei Yan, who roared, "I told you, it has nothing to do with you, even without you, they would still attack Yan Bei!"

Cang He lost his voice and said: "What am I? I want to go home, I don't want to stay here anymore! I have nothing left, my father is dead, and my uncle is impatient to seize my position as city lord. You want me to leave, but you still want to abandon me in the end! You don’t want me anymore, what am I doing alive?!”

Hei Yan, who was in a hurry, waved his hand and slapped Cang He, his eyes turned black, and his head suddenly went blank!

Cang He looked at Hei Yan in disbelief, covered his face, as if a lump was stuck in his throat, unable to say a word.

This is Jian Zan, who was at the side, sneered and said, "Castle Master Cangxiao, why not walk out of this gate now to see if they will kill you as agreed and let others go! Ridiculous!"

As a mercenary, Jian Zan was his partner in the war, and the sudden arrival of Qicheng's army surprised him. Logically speaking, these people should wait and see before starting to act, but he didn't expect Qicheng to act resolutely this time!

"It seems that Yanbei City can't be kept now. On behalf of Wu Chan, I sincerely invite you to leave with me. I will guarantee your safety!" Jian Zan said with a smile as he looked at Yue Lin carefully.

Yue Lin shook his head slightly, and said: "Jian Zan, you know I won't agree, you are not from Yanbei, you go!"

Jian Zan was silent for a moment, and he said: "Hei Yan, I will go to Dafeng to take away the body of Mistress Wuxiang. If you don't die this time, I will wait for you to come to Paimpole. The body of the mistress will be in Pample Wait for you."

Hei Yan didn't stop Jian Zan this time, he looked at Jian Zan's back as he turned and left, and sighed faintly.

Cang He stood there like a wooden man, motionless, Hei Yan walked in front of Cang He silently, and whispered: "Stay, for me."

Gritting his teeth and looking at the tall figure, Cang He burst into tears, and opened his mouth to let out a sob...

Yue Lin looked at the big boy who was crying and almost passed out, and patted him on the shoulder to express comfort.

The enemy was at hand, and every move of Yuelin and Heiyan would affect these soldiers. Wearing a padded robe, Yuelin pulled Ao Gengeng, a soldier who used to work as a carpenter and ironworker in Yanbei City, to make crossbows at night.

Everyone in the city was surprised why the army outside did not attack for a long time, but they didn't know that it was because of Yue Lin's plan to delay the army. Ji went to the enemy every few days to tell all kinds of untrue information, but let Cang Duan Very useful.

How did Hei Yan know from Yue Lin what Yue Lin asked Ji to do, he could only hurry up to make Yanbei's city wall stronger.

The cool wind whizzed by, and the time passed by every minute. All the men and women in the anxious Yanbei City were making crossbow parts. The delay has reached the fourth day. Cang Duan's subordinates wondered: "Master, we brought There is not much food, should we continue to wait like this?"

Cang Duan frowned, pondered for a moment and said: "Of course not. The Wu from Yanbei has not agreed to open the city gate for me. He must have some concerns. Whether he agrees or not this time, we will attack Xiangsui tomorrow. city!"

I still don't know that Cangduan's decision season came before Cangduan's army as usual, and it was still the excuse.

One of Cang Duan's subordinates raised his eyebrows and said, "My lord, I don't think this kid is sincerely cooperating with us at all!"

"Hmph." Cang Duan said to Ji viciously after hearing the words: "Listen, what my men say, go back and tell you Wu, if he opens the gate for me when I attack the city tomorrow, I will let you go according to my previous promise." Northern Tribe, if not, then you can wait to be buried in Xiangsui with those slaves!"

The night is hazy, and the more I look at the sky, the more crossbows have been made, and the arrows of bows and arrows are also rushed out, and Yanbei should be able to fight tomorrow...

On the second day, the thunderous sound of horseshoes finally came, the dust rolled, and Cang Duan came with an army.

The sound of the horn pierced the sky, and if there was another beating of war drums, it would be the ancient battlefield, as if walking through the torrent of time and space in a lifetime.

Those cavalry charged forward, and Hei Yan immediately asked all the soldiers to draw their bows and arrows, and the crossbows that had been made in the past four days were also taken to the high platform.

Cang Duan raised his head to look at the high platform, and asked the subordinates beside him doubtfully, "Have you ever seen that thing before?"

Everyone shook their heads repeatedly and said straightly: "You have never seen it, Lord City Lord. How could we have seen it? We have also seen a catapult. Is this thing the same as a catapult for throwing stones?"

Cang Duan shook his head, and then said: "Hmph, you'll find out later, you all be careful!"

Hei Yan stood on the high platform, everyone drew their bows, but they did not let go of the arrows in their hands. Without Hei Yan's order, they did not dare to act rashly.

Let the other party approach until the group of people appeared within the range of the bow and arrow, Hei Yan shouted: "Shoot!"

Looking at the crowds of cavalry, everyone was terrified and frightened. It's not their fault. Have you ever seen such a battle in the tribe?How many people can a tribe have?

Hei Yan is full of animal blood, fighting, this is the real battle!

You can almost hear your heart beating!

Those people rushed forward, Yue Lin's palms were full of sweat, and the sound of fighting rang in his ears.

With a wave of Hei Yan's hand, the soldiers standing beside the crossbow machine also installed the crossbow machine one after another, and the fired crossbow arrows made a sound of piercing the air, advancing rapidly, like a black awn going straight to the enemy!

Immediately, the screams under the city came one after another, endlessly!

The soldiers of Seven Cities were killed by the arrows one by one. At the same time, the arrows fired by the huge crossbow were like a spear, shooting a distance of thousands of meters!

"what!"

The body that was concentrated by the arrows was thrown six or seven meters away in the direction of the black light, and the whole body was shot through, turning into a ball of flesh!

Cang Duan's heart was suddenly turbulent and horrified. Seeing his men around him being pierced by a huge spear in an instant, his face turned pale!What bow and arrow can shoot such a long distance?Whose arm can shoot people away?

He looked into the distance and backed away again and again!

The siege soldiers were either killed or wounded.

Cang Duan subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away!

"withdraw!"

Because of the appearance of the crossbow, Cang Duan was caught off guard!He immediately screamed, "Back!"

"Fuck, what is this thing that can shoot so far?! Retreat first!" Cang Duan gave an order, and the sound of the horn changed its tone immediately, it was an order to retreat!The Qicheng soldiers decisively retreated on horseback!

Yue Lin heaved a sigh of relief seeing this scene, fortunately the other party did not forcefully attack...

"Hei Yan, you conducted well today!" Yue Lin looked at Hei Yan, who organized the battle, with a smile on his face, this was one of the few times he smiled in the past few days.

Hei Yan nodded slightly, with a worried look in his eyes and said: "I don't know if they will attack tomorrow..."

Yue Lin was silent for a moment and said, "Let's rush to make some arrows and wooden thorns to be prepared."

"Wu, is the bed crossbow something from your original tribe? Or the city?..." Hei Yan asked curiously.

Everyone on the side who heard the words looked at Yue Lin curiously. This bed crossbow was made by Yue Lin Wu in a few days, and its power on the battlefield is obvious to all. It is definitely a sharp weapon among sharp weapons!

Yue Lin shook his head, then nodded again.

Everyone had a question, why did Ah Wu nod and shake his head again? !

"It's sort of..." Yue Lin resentfully said, among the eighteen kinds of weapons in ancient China, there were also crossbows, one of the sharp weapons for siege against infantry in ancient times.

"The city of Yue Linwu is really powerful, I don't know..." Hei Yan was silent for a moment, thinking that the city of Yue Linwu should have been destroyed long ago. Even a city with such a weapon cannot avoid destruction. What kind of powerful enemy would the opponent be? ?How does it compare to these seven cities?Or distant Carthage?

The rags on the flagpole fluttered in the breeze, whimpering and whimpering.

The soldiers of Qicheng were very depressed at this time. In the tent, Cang Duan looked at the spears collected from the battlefield with an unnatural expression, saying that the spears were wrong, and they were obviously bigger arrows. Even the arrows were very rough and useless The heads are made of copper and iron, which are ordinary wooden sticks with both ends sharpened, a bit like wooden thorns used by tribal people.

"Who of you saw the situation at that time? How could this thing fly from such a long distance?!"

A short-haired man pondered for a moment and said: "I heard from the soldiers that this thing was launched by those things like catapults on the Xiangsui high platform!"

Hearing this, Cang Duan frowned.

This time, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as I thought, and it may be impossible to take down Xiangsui city easily... Do I need to discuss it with that Yanbei witch?

He said seriously: "We were careless this time. I didn't expect this barbarian tribe to have such a sharp weapon!"

"Could it be something from Xiangsui City, but they just borrowed it?"

Cang Duan nodded repeatedly when he heard his subordinate's speculation, and said, "That's right, it must be so, otherwise these slaves wouldn't be able to make such a thing!"

"We must pay attention to these slaves in Xiangsui City..."

Although Cang Duan agreed with this sentence, he didn't say it, but ordered: "Let all the soldiers rest well, I decided to contact the other party's witch again, and by the way, let someone bring the news back to Qicheng, so that Qicheng will send the catapult Deliver it."

"Yes, my lord!"

The next day, the Seven Cities army did not attack the city.

Hei Yan and the others were all amazed and puzzled. For three consecutive days, the troops from the seven cities never attacked or retreated!

"Did they give up?" Yuan Meng scratched his head and said.

Leng Heng slightly shook his head and said, "I'm afraid not."

Yue Lin squinted his eyes, he pondered for a moment and said: "It should be some idea, the battle a few days ago was just because of the appearance of the crossbow, they were taken aback, I am afraid they will come back soon."

"season……"

Yue Lin turned to look at Ji, hesitantly called out to him, Ji smiled and said: "I understand Wu's meaning, I will go to find out the news tomorrow!"

Yue Lin nodded, and looked at Ji with some embarrassment, "It's dangerous this time, be careful! Safety comes first, as long as you can come back!"

"Don't worry, Ah Wu, I can survive in Xiangsui, let alone now?"

Ji smiled slightly, his friend... had to take care of himself, and he would definitely survive!

On this day, outside Yanbei City, thousands of troops were stationed in one place, covering the sky and covering the ground, with tents rolling up and down continuously, stretching as far as the eye can see.

In the middle of the night, the vast distance in the distance is like a sea of ​​fire, rippling and undulating on this earth.

As soon as the wind blew, the flames surged, and the night sky outside Yanbei City was completely red.

Ji passed through the city and came to Cang Duan again. Cang Duan looked at the visitor and secretly rejoiced in his heart. Although he had sent people back to fetch the catapults for attacking the city these days, it would be even better if someone was willing to open the door for him. alright!Taking Xiangsui City easily is the best!

If a catapult is used, I am afraid that there will be a considerable price.

"You're here." He looked contented, as if he was not in a hurry, and he was full of confidence.

Ji knelt on the ground with his head down, Cangduan couldn't see Ji's expression clearly, but it didn't prevent Cangduan from pretending to be deep in front of Ji.

Although he is said to be the lord of the city, Cang Duan is very aware of his abilities. In the past, his younger brother and father did the fighting. He doesn't know how to fight at all, and what he does more is to manage Rab City.

"Yes, my lord, Ah Wu was terrified a few days ago. You said you wanted to beat Yan Bei and you hit him right away. He hasn't been in a good mood recently, and it took him a few days to recover..."

Ji Qi said Ai Ai, as if frightened.

Cang Duan laughed when he heard the words, put down the cup in his hand and said: "Go back and tell you Wu, as long as he opens the door for me, I will definitely follow the previous agreement. In addition, I can give him some unexpected good things!"

The air was suddenly condensed, and Ji Wenyan muttered and hesitated for a while and said, "I don't know when Master Cangduan will attack Yanbei City? I can tell Ah Wu to make preparations!"

"It depends on when you can open the door for me!" Cang Duan said immediately after hearing the words.

Ji quickly agreed, "Let me go back and ask Ah Wu! I don't know what other plans my lord has?"

A subordinate scolded in a cold voice: "Why do you ask so many questions about our seven cities?!"

Ji Leng sweated again and again, thinking that he was being reckless!

Cang Duan's voice was like the sound of heaven, he interrupted the subordinate and said: "Shut up, since you have already asked, I will not hide it from you, I have already sent people back to Rab City to transport the catapult, as soon as the catapult comes out, The city wall of Xiangsui is nothing more than a piece of paper to me. When the catapult arrives, I will definitely break through the city wall! Go back early and let your Ah Wu make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise I will attack the city as soon as the catapult arrives ! Live or die!"

Ji hurriedly knelt down and said again and again: "My lord, don't worry, I will definitely tell Ah Wu!"

Looking at Ji's back, Cang Duan's expression was unpredictable, and the subordinate who had just spoken and questioned Ji frowned and said, "My lord, could this person lie to us? Want to delay time?"

Cang Duan sneered and said: "It doesn't matter if you delay. Anyway, we have to wait for the food and catapults to be delivered from Rab City. It will be easy to attack the city. If the witch is willing to help take down Xiangsui City, we will lose less troops. That's good too!"

Several subordinates quickly agreed.

Ji, who didn't know that he had been suspected, took advantage of the night and hurried back to Yanbei Tribe, and told Yue Lin, Hei Yan and others what he had heard today.

"Transporting things from Rab City to here... It would take about [-] or [-] days if I just rushed here. It took me a lot of time to escape all the way with the warehouse. If I brought the catapult, I am afraid it would take longer Some... plus the back and forth time, Cang Duan's attack on Yanbei should be delayed for a while..."

Hei Yan lived in Rab City for a while, and when he heard Ji's news, his eyebrows relaxed a little, which meant that Cang Duan's attack on Yanbei should be 20 days later!

Everyone was relieved for a moment. The past few days have been like nightmares. The last battle between the two sides was purely a fluke. The other party did not continue to forcefully attack because they were afraid of the bed crossbow. Otherwise, Yanbei might not be able to withstand their strong attack!

Three days later, in the early morning of this day, the scorching sun hung high.

Cang Duan brought the army to Yanbei City again. He squinted his eyes and glanced at the hot sun hanging high in the sky, and then looked at the closed gate of Xiangsui. The city wall of Xiangsui was covered with green moss. The rock is so thick that it is difficult to push open the huge rock gate with a simple method.

"My lord, are we attacking the city now? But the catapults haven't arrived yet..."

Cang Duan turned around and said to the people behind him: "Go to the city and tell them that as long as they surrender Xiangsui City and Canghe, I will let them go! Let them go!"

The subordinates behind him nodded, and immediately rode straight to the gate of Yanbei City!

But not long after, the man came back in despair and reported: "My lord, that barbarian named Hei Yan directly refused, and said that we should leave now! Otherwise, we will be killed!"

Cang Duan was stunned when he heard the words, and then asked: "Can you see someone standing with Hei Yan? Is there a witch from Yanbei?"

"It doesn't seem to be..." The soldier thought even if he was there, he didn't know him!

Cang Duan snorted coldly and said in his heart that the so-called Yanbei witch was either deceiving him, or was discovered by Hei Yan and locked up!No matter what the situation is, it doesn't matter. It took a long time to transport the catapult, so it's good to scare the barbarians. Thinking of the panicked appearance of the slaves in Xiangsui City, Cang Duan couldn't help but curl his mouth happily.

"Since they like to use bows and arrows, then we will also use arrows. Even if they can't attack the city gate, I want them to suffer countless casualties!" Cang Duan Leng said, "Let the archers come forward!" "

"Yes, my lord!"

Cangduan's subordinates immediately organized the archers to form row after row!The archers quickly assembled, stood in four rows, and surrounded Yanbei City.

Hei Yan looked at these people, squinted his eyes, and thought to himself, what do you want to do this time?

When Yue Lin rushed over, the ringing sounded in his heart!

"They're going to attack us with arrows! Quick! Let them hide under the walls!"

These archers drew their bows and arrows, only to see the densely packed arrow feathers followed by a cry: "Shoot!"

Flying together, covering the sky and the sun, the sight became more and more creepy, everyone standing on the high platform immediately squatted down to avoid the roaring arrows!

The people of Yanbei City who had no shields were caught off guard by this sudden attack!

After the row of Seven Cities warriors shot their arrows, they retreated in an orderly manner, making room for a row of archers!

"Shooting arrows!" The soldiers of the Seven Cities screamed hoarsely, and with this sound, arrows overwhelming the sky once again went straight to Yanbei City!

The arrows flew straight to Yanbei City. At this time, most people had already hid in the corner of Daocheng or in the house, but some people had returned to the arrows and became dead souls.

Yue Lin stabilized his mind, and exchanged a glance with Hei Yan, he didn't expect that this position would be so unreasonable!Damn it!

A few Mohist warriors held up the few shields in Xiangsui City, and tremblingly blocked the flying arrows in the sky, for fear that Yuelin and Heiyan in the middle of the shields would be injured, but if the huge force of the arrows impacted on the shields, Because the two of them have a huge shield together, I am afraid that the shield has been released long ago!

Standing in the corner, Wugu saw that both Yuelin and Heiyan were fine, he let out a long sigh of relief this time!

"Sister-in-law, it's good that you're fine, you better not go up the tower! That barn is really abominable, why did you bother us Yanbei?! I'm so mad, don't let me catch him! Otherwise I will definitely kill him!"

Wu Gu was very angry, Yue Lin said to Wu Gu, "How can you know what's going on outside if you don't go to the tower?"

Wu Gu was at a loss for words, "I will go up instead of sister-in-law!"

Yue Lin glanced at Wu Gu, and smiled with relief. Although the boy's real age was only 14 years old, although he was almost taller than himself, he would be a half-old child in modern times. It was really heart-warming to be able to say such considerate words.

"That won't work."

Hei Yan narrowed his eyes and said, "Ah Wu, don't go to the tower in the future, I'll just go to the tower to check!"
