Martial law was declared in the city. While the soldiers were resting, the generals kept making careful plans to retreat from the enemy, and the forward scouts also closely monitored the enemy's situation.

Today's sky is a little late, and the morning sun is against the large group of gloomy stratus clouds, only a corner is exposed, and it is buried.

The scout ran back from the Jiehe barbarian camp desperately, throwing away his helmet and armor, his face pale, as if he had seen a living ghost, and he couldn't complete a sentence.

"Savage, barbaric, barbaric..."

A general was impatient, and quickly ordered his subordinates to pour a basin of cold water on him, which drenched him with a "splash"!

"How about the barbarian camp? Tell me!"

The scout's pupils were frightened and scattered, and then they gathered together, lying on the ground, their muscles trembling uncontrollably, not knowing whether it was fear or cold.

"Barbarian camp, barbaric camp, from a distance, it was fine last night, camping and cooking, but, cocoa..." The scout's teeth were chattering as he spoke.

"But what can!"

"But this morning, just as the scout team was about to switch defenses, all the people in their camp were struggling, screaming, and turned into living ghosts! Countless vines grew from their bodies! They wrapped people alive ! Full camp, all!"

Everyone didn't believe it at first, but it was really hard to convince them.

Jiang Zhao asked with a pale face, "Where are the other scouts?"

"Others, other people, a group of dry vine ghosts, rushed up the mountain ridge, they, they are all dead!" Originally, he should have died too, but the lieutenant stood in front of him with his flesh and blood, desperately calling him back to the city The letter was sent, and in a blink of an eye, the withered vine hand pierced his heart. The scout was covered in blood, and the cold water dripped down from his body and flowed all over the floor.

Everyone's scalps were numb!There are many veterans who have fought for many years, but they have never encountered such a situation.

The scout could no longer make a sound, and the guards on both sides quickly took out thick quilts and wrapped them around his head, while the military doctor stepped forward to administer the needle.

There seemed to be a mouthful of blood in Jiang Zhao's throat, but he was still biting, his eyes were bloodshot.

"The whole army, prepare for battle, meet the enemy, and defend Xuancheng to the death!"

In the small courtyard at the east gate of the city, a few white wolves guarding the courtyard instantly jumped up. Their muscles were tense, showing the most ferocious attack posture, and they stood by the courtyard wall, growling and threatening.

Shui Shi's heart was beating with depression all the time, seeing the strange behavior of the white wolf at this moment, he immediately picked up the hatchet beside the bed, quickly put himself on guard, and lowered his head against the inner side of the courtyard wall.

After only a while, the ground felt as if it was trembling in the water, and the vibration was slightly felt through the soles of the feet, and the danger was approaching.

As soon as the horn sounded, the soldiers in the city who had been resting and changing defense all rushed to the city gate with their guns.Stepping on the white wolf in the water, lying on his back, looking towards the nearest east city gate, he saw that the city gate was packed with guards in full helmets and armor, and even moved all the heavy crossbows to the city wall. All kinds of boiling oil and flint.

When I was in the water, I was shocked, what a pity!The barbarians are counterattacking?But why so fast?There are a large number of newly produced bed crossbows in the city, and rattan armor soldiers can't get close to the city at all! Rattan armor can be penetrated within a range of 1000 meters. He and Fu Li went to explore, and there are not many armored soldiers among the barbarians. Are the barbarians crazy?

Among the remaining white wolves, there is also the uncle of the little white wolf. Although he has a playful personality on weekdays, he is the out-and-out leader of the wolf pack!Tall and strong, standing up is not much less than Fu Li's height, and his fangs are sharp, and his limbs are like steel.

Its blue eyes had long lost the lazy and easy-going look of the past, revealing a murderous aura.

Only then did Shui Shi feel relieved, the wolf is really a wild beast, and the white wolf is the king of beasts.

The white wolf ran out resolutely, nimbly dodging the guards, climbed up the city wall in a few steps, raised its wolf head and looked out of the city.

In the past, the white wolves were hidden in the mountains and forests, never showing themselves to people, but now they appeared in the daytime, and they were so fierce and strong, which instantly attracted a lot of attention. The sound of breathing in.

It's just that the white wolf looks very powerful, and his eyes are as good as a psychic.In this area, the legend of the wolf god has been circulating. No, some time ago, I heard the rumor that the wolf god sent the child home at night, so no one dared to be disrespectful, but just looked at it from a distance.

The soldiers and generals couldn't separate their minds to take care of it, because, standing on the high city wall, they could already see a group of "people" coming up from the border river in a dark mass at the junction of heaven and earth from a distance.

People's eyesight is limited, but the white wolf is not. Its blue eyes can see clearly, the withered cheeks of the group of "Vine Ghosts", and the unfinished blood on the painful market.

When he was in the water, he felt the white wolf go stiff, and then suddenly turned around and jumped back into the city. When he picked up the water, he was about to run. The remaining three white wolves followed closely behind, and jumped out of the city wall to search around. Feeling surrounded by that "smell" all around, the lone wolf can run as hard as he can, but he must not bring water!

The white wolf paused, stopped, and jumped back into the city, back to the small courtyard.Shui Shi already knew that the situation was critical, but he only thought it was a barbarian army besieging the city.

"Run first if you can! If you are too aggressive, you will inevitably not become a target. It is not easy for barbarians to break through the city, and they are not on the verge of life and death."

But White Wolf's memory of that kind of thing is still fresh!After all, he was the one who helped the wolf king bring the man back to the wolf's lair when he grew the arrow of Fuli. In the snowy valley of Dongshan, the fierce battle was extremely difficult overnight, and the "vine ghosts" filled the canyon.

When I was in the water, I saw a few wolves touching each other head to head, face to face, purring and chatting.When he was about to speak, he saw one of the fastest white wolves running out of the courtyard wall, jumped down from the city wall, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The rest of the white wolves surrounded him vigilantly around him.

The war is about to start, no one cares about anyone, but Shui Shi still heard knocking on the door, he calmed down the white wolf, opened the door and saw that it was Dong Sheng who came to him with a serious look on his face. .

"Brother Dongzi? Why are you here! You don't want to fight!"

Dongsheng has long since ceased to look like a young hunter looking for people in Dongshan. Instead, he has become calm and imposing after experiencing the flames of war and swords.

He couldn't help being taken aback when he saw the white wolf. Such a ferocious beast reminded him of the giant white wolf that his father and son saw in the forest that day!The divine beast covered the sky and covered the earth, and it pulled out the backbone of the bear king alive!It's frightening for two to fight.

But fortunately, the size of the wolves in front of them is not so exaggerated. The people of Rehe respect wolves in their bones. Dongsheng was blindfolded at this moment, and only then did he show a little naive look in the past.

Looking at the soldiers behind Dongsheng cautiously raising their swords and guns, he quickly waved his hands when he was in the water, "Relax, everyone! This is my wolf, don't hurt anyone!"

Hearing this, Dong Sheng came back to his senses and greeted his brothers to come in, but he had to hide from some white wolves, and don't get too close to the water, so as not to offend them.

"Brother Shui! The barbarians are attacking. I heard that the rattan armor is even more difficult to deal with this time, but Jing Jun doesn't allow us to discuss it, so we can just defend the city."

"How did that get to me?"

"Hey, the General Empress ordered someone to protect you in a hurry. They knew that I have a small friendship with you, so they specially called me over and said that everything is cheap. Don't be afraid, Brother Dongzi will protect you!"

Shui Shi was taken aback after hearing this, and his heart was warm. Dong Sheng was like a simple and honest brother, who could be regarded as his relative in this different world.

"Brother Dongzi, home, how is home?" In the midst of the war, Shui Shi asked in shock.

But Dongsheng waved his hand, "It's nothing, I was sent to the imperial city by the general." There are still many unfinished words, there are no eggs under the nest, Xuancheng can't be defended, if the barbarian army can drive straight into the imperial city City, it doesn't really matter where it is.

He still regarded Shui Shi as a child, and although he was a little afraid of those giant white wolves staring at him at this moment, he told his brothers to guard the hospital wall and wait for an opportunity after the war without saying a word.

He was talking, but scratched his head and didn't dare to get too close to the water.It's just that these white wolves used to go down the mountain from time to time, and they lived on the hillside behind the yard when Rehe was guarding the water. They went up and smelled Dongsheng, and they remembered it from the smell, as if they were neighbors, and their attitude was visible to the naked eye. eased.

Dongsheng didn't dare to move around. After the white wolf ignored him, he finally relaxed and asked for water anxiously.

"Brother Shui, you, um, huh! Where's your man? It's not a good time to run around." Although the man was there, although it was strange that he was neither human nor beast, Brother Shui felt more at ease.

"He has something important to do, so go back to Dongshan."

Dongsheng was anxious, "Hey, when did you leave! Don't catch up with the war when you come back, you will suffer if you can't get in outside the city."

When the water counts the time, luckily!He went there this morning, probably not so fast, he is safer!

Immediately, he didn't think about it, and pulled Dongsheng to ask about the military situation.It's just that Dongsheng has limited official positions after all, and he doesn't know much about it.

Without saying a few words, suddenly a large number of soldiers on the city wall exclaimed, and even the timid ones rolled down the gate tower in fright!

The reason is that the barbarian army has finally approached, and the defenders have already seen the current situation.

The tall barbarians who fought back and forth a few days ago are completely human now, their faces are pale, their skin is dry, and the whole army is covered with rattan armor. The armor is shiny, as if sucked dry. The last bit of flesh and blood that covered the body was still green and strange.

By the Jie River, there are patches of blackness, full of "vine ghosts" frantically rushing towards Xuancheng, and there is no one around.

However, after only a moment of commotion, it calmed down.

It was extremely quiet, only the heavy breathing of people could be heard, and the clear sound of trees and vines rubbing gradually in the distance.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak..."

All soldiers are tall or short, fat or thin, young or old.As if spontaneously, they turned around one after another, faced the back of Xuancheng, and looked at the hinterland of the Central Plains, including the imperial capital and hometown, and kowtowed deeply.

Changbai can afford it, what should I do personally, they hold the crossbow arm, pull the tripping rope, light the flint...

The soldier who was frightened and rolled down the city gate was still young, and his chin still had no stubble.With tears in his eyes, he touched his snot, shook his legs, and climbed up to his own pile on the city wall.

He may have so many family and country ambitions like generals and lieutenants, but his parents, younger brothers and younger sisters are all behind this city.

Even if you are dead and trampled into mud, you still have to hold on, no matter what happens in the end, you will die before your family!

Jiang Zhao was wearing a blood-red cloak, and stood with Zhao Xing on the main city. His thin scholar body was like a tough reed with a bloody smell. He held the command flag in his hand and shouted.

"Up the crossbow!"

A small group of 20 crossbowmen struggled to shake their sticks.Thousands of arrows are ready, and the flag is firmly waved.

"shoot!"

The strong wind rolled up the rain of arrows, howling like a waterfall, and scattered in all directions.

When I was in the water, I could only see the square inch of sky in the courtyard in front of me, but I didn't know that the most tragic war had already begun.
