Chapter 687

"Why are you so sure?"

Miao Youfang was unconvinced, leaning on a knife and chewing his nest head:

"I like to attack others at night, because sleeping at night is the most relaxed time."

Xu Xinnian patted a bucket full of fire oil at his feet and said with a smile:

"our oil is not only for burning the enemy, but also for lighting at night. Throw them down with a catapult. As soon as the fire lights up, the soldiers stand on the top of the city and can see the situation clearly.

"But the enemy couldn't see the arrow from the head of the city. How many people were killed.

"Your move is only applicable to pre emptive attacks before the war."

But now it's an offensive and defensive battle that both sides are prepared for...

Miao Youfang felt that the scholar was right. After thinking about it, his eyes lit up:

"what if the other side sent experts?"

Xu Erlang looked at him silently: "I ordered the military experts to patrol at night. What are they guarding against?"

Miao Youfang was convinced and raised his thumb:

"he is worthy of being Xu Yinluo's younger brother, and has the style of being a brother."

The corners of Xu Erlang's mouth twitch slightly, and his heart says that you are just as vulgar as my elder brother.

He knew that Miao Youfang was his elder brother's follower. Last time he returned to Beijing, they had a few encounters. On the eve of his being stationed in Songshan County, Miao Youfang suddenly came to him and wanted to fight with him.

Xu Erlang asked if he was sent by big brother.

Miao Youfang shook his head and said, "it's what my husband did to protect my family and defend my country.".

A Wupin Huajin Wufu took the initiative to take refuge, and his identity was no problem. Of course, the military welcomed him very much, so Miao Youfang followed him to Songshan county.

"But there are so few masters in the garrison that there is only one fourth grade." Miao Youfang shakes his head.

"The four grade masters are all high-ranking people, and the number is naturally rare." Xu Erlang responded.

"Rare? I went to the north and South with Xu Yinluo, and I couldn't see the fish in the four grades. "

Miao said with an air.

As you know, he was following my elder brother..... Xu Erlang put his hands on the female wall and said slowly:

"to me, the court officials are not rare, they are everywhere. But brother Miao has seen some Feipao. "

The level that big brother is now involved in and the opponent he is facing must be the highest level of a certain force, and the high level of a big force is naturally the top group of people in Kyushu.

Of course, four products are not rare.

But in Qingzhou, a small Songshan County, Sipin is a high-ranking figure.

In the garrison of Songshan County, there is only one fourth grade commander, who is at the same level as Xu Erlang.

The commander is responsible for guarding the north gate.

Xu Erlang didn't intend to entangle in this topic, took a breath of the cold night wind and said:

"I remember my elder brother said that your goal is to become a world-famous Great Xia. But in war-torn places, it's hard for you to spread your good deeds. Because the people you save today may die tomorrow.

"The vagrant people are either rescued by the army or by the rebels. They are just like goods. They don't want to remember a knight who helped them.

"If you want to be a great Xia, you have to go to a peaceful place. If you rob the rich and help the poor, there will be a legend about you in the Jianghu."

Miao Youfang scratched his head and thought for a while about Xu's new year's problem:

"I'm sure I want to be a great Xia.

"But I'm in my prime, and I won't get in the way for a few years, but Dafeng is old. If I can't continue my life for him, I'll change the dynasty.

"In fact, as far as I'm concerned, it's none of my business who does the emperor.

"But for the people, it's a disaster. If Qingzhou can't be defended, the war will burn to the north and spread to the capital. Tens of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains along the way will turn into scorched earth.

"So I wonder if we can keep the rebels in Qingzhou and stop the war in Qingzhou."

Xu had some accidents in the new year and said with a smile:

"brother Miao really impressed me. There are very few chivalrous people like you in the river and lake."

Miao Youfang shrugged:

"no, actually I don't like the Dafeng court. It's just that he said something to me when Xu Yinluo and I parted.

"The reason why he cultivated me and guided me to practice was that someone gave him the opportunity. All he wanted was that he would be useful to the court and the people in the future.

"Xu Yinluo did what he expected.

"So I don't want to disappoint Xu either."

Elder brother is right...... Xu Erlang nodded silently. As soon as he wanted to speak, he heard Miao Youfang's face change and said:

"the enemy is pushing the artillery!"

Xu Xinnian's heart was awe inspiring, and he looked at it intently. The night was deep and he could not see anything. However, he knew that Miao Youfang was a wupinwufu, and his eyesight was far better than ordinary people, so he didn't question it and roared out loud:"Beat the drum!

"Artillery ready, bed crossbow ready."

The soldiers who rest against the women's wall and sleep on the horse path in light armor wake up one after another. They move in an orderly way, filling in shells and crossbows.

Miao Youfang pushed aside a gunner, calibrated the angle and ignited the lead.

Boom!

A group of fire expanded to illuminate the distance, so that the city's defenders can clearly see the enemy taking advantage of the night to push the artillery close.

Before the light of the explosion subsided, the crossbows and artillery at the head of the city opened fire one after another, pouring fire at the enemy.

The advantage of the garrison was immediately highlighted. Because of its commanding position, the guns at the head of the city had a longer range than the enemy's guns.

If the enemy wants to bomb the city wall, they must first accept the baptism of the defensive firepower.

Miao Youfang handed the gun back to the gunner, looked at Xu Xinnian and said angrily:

"didn't you say that the enemy won't attack at night?"

"Ah? What did you say? " Xu Erlang took out his ear and said in a loud voice:

"the guns are too loud for me to hear."

Miao Youfang burst into a rude remark, saying that the scholar's face was no weaker than Wu Fu's copper skin and iron bone.

At this time, after losing three guns and two crossbows, the enemy's artillery team finally broke into the range, and the dense sound of guns immediately rang out, and the roar continued.

A group of fire in the city wall, the city continued to explode.

During this period, there was the sound of the strings of the crossbow.

The destructive power of the bed crossbow is far less than that of the artillery. Whether it is the destruction of the city wall or the lethality of the soldiers, it is inferior to the explosion of gunpowder.

However, one of the functions of the crossbow and the bed crossbow is that it is always in parallel with the artillery and has never been eliminated. That is the single to single lethality of the crossbow.

Artillery may not kill a man of iron and copper, but the armor breaking power of crossbows and arrows can seriously injure and kill experts in the army.

The Wufu who is trapped in the battlefield will become "numb" with the premonition of crisis, because the crisis is everywhere on the battlefield, which makes it easy for the Wufu to ignore the terrible crossbow and cannot avoid it in advance.

With good luck, it is a good thing to make a lot of money if you can kill or severely damage the Wufu in the enemy.

In the course of the two sides' bombardment, more than a thousand soldiers in rattan beetles charged with attack hammers, ladders, shields and other tools.

These soldiers were refugees gathered by the rebels in Yunzhou, and they were specially used to consume the firepower of the garrison.

Two guards holding shields protect Xu Xinnian, while he keeps running in the city to command the battle.

"My Lord, go down first. In case of being endangered by the artillery, the gain is not worth the loss."

The guard advised loudly.

"Compared with my personal safety, the morale of the army is more important."

Xu Xinnian pressed the sword with one hand and ran back and forth, directing the soldiers to fill the positions, directing the militia to clean up the bodies and treat the wounded.

These things are not for him, but for him.

As the highest commander of Songshan County, as long as he stood at the head of the city and fought side by side with the soldiers, the defenders would never waver.

The offensive and defensive war lasted until the middle of the night. After the enemy left a corpse, they were defeated and evacuated.

...

Southern Xinjiang.

Beside the pool, Luo Yuheng, dressed in a feather coat, sat on the smooth stone on the bank, with Xu Qian's robe under his buttocks.

At the bottom of the feather coat, the white and well proportioned feet are exposed and soaked in the cold water.

Her cheeks are still red and her eyes are tiny. I don't know whether she is enjoying the cool water or the aftertaste of the spring tide.

Standing in the pool, Xu Qi'an reached out and picked up the white, lotus embroidered belly pocket and played with it.

Luo Yuheng's eyes were clearer than the pool water. He glanced at him and flashed an imperceptible blush.

Xu Qi'an rubbed the smooth material of his belly pocket with his belly and thought about the delicacy and softness of his breast. He said with a smile:

"teacher, will you be pregnant?"

Luo Yuheng's eyes were cold, but his cheeks were flushed. His white jade feet kicked him, "Hua La". The water was like the sharpest sword in the world, and he hit xiaoyingong's face.

Xu Qi'an's face is burning with pain.

Luo Yuheng snorted coldly: "it's just a trade between you and me. I'll lend you to quell the fire of karma. You can lend me your fighting power. Don't even think about it. "

With that, seeing him staring at his belly, he felt more ashamed and angry.

His mouth is very hard, but he has to cooperate with him more than last time, and he is more familiar with him..... Xu Qi'an mutters in his heart.

Whether a woman likes you or not, and how much she likes you, can be felt in double cultivation. Although Luo Yuheng has a hard mouth, her body has completely accepted him.

I really have no affection for him. I can't lift my hips and twist my waist.

You and mu Nanzhi are really good friends. They don't admit it, but they are honest. Xu Qian has the cheek to say:

"I'm not worried that I'll be killed one day. Anyway, I still have incense left."To get down to business, I came to southern Xinjiang this time and found a big secret."

At the moment, tell Luo Yuheng about the process of Baidi's question and answer that Tiangu's mother-in-law told him.

After hearing this, Luo Yuheng's delicate and slender eyebrows frowned slightly and pondered for a long time:

"if you know three things clearly, you can know the secrets behind the three problems.

"First, the reason for the fall of ancient gods and demons; second, the end of the three practices of heaven, earth and man; third, why the God Gu thought that the Confucian sage was the gatekeeper."

Three things correspond to "the end of the great era", "the whereabouts of daozun" and "who is the gatekeeper".

Luo Yuheng took the opportunity to raise her hand, snatched back her belly pocket, put it on her side, and then gathered up her feather coat. After all, she was the only one on her body.

In order to prevent Xu Qian from seizing, she said quickly:

"the age of gods and demons is too far away, and there is no clue to find, but if you can talk with Baidi and Gu Shen, you can know the inside story. I don't suggest you try. People today are not qualified to have an equal dialogue with the two.

"When I'm promoted to a higher level, I'll go to Tianzong, and then I'll hear from you. As for the gatekeeper, you can ask Zhao Shou or JianZheng.

"One is the successor of the Confucian system, and the other is able to spy on the secrets of heaven."

"It's worthy of being a national teacher. Bing Xueming is smart." Xu Qi'an gives a thumbs up.

Luo Yuheng's expression was cold, but there was a smile in his eyes.

For a woman who is in a high position and has a strong personality, this is the best way. Of course, it must be Xu Qi'an's flattery.

Because he is a double monk in the name of Luo Yuheng, no matter how flattering other men are, they can't make her feel better.

"Unfortunately, those who know the secret will be bound by it. Even if the supervisor knows, he can't tell me. "

Xu Qi'an shook his head regretfully: "well, it's not urgent. The Qingzhou war is the most urgent thing. The National Division has just returned from Qingzhou. What's the situation there? "

Luo Yuheng said: "I didn't pay attention."

After thinking about it, he added: "your cousin seems to have been sent to guard Songshan county. This is one of the most important strongholds in Yang Gong's second line of defense."

She means that the war in Qingzhou is stable for the time being, but Xu Erlang will be in danger? You are too proud of your teacher, you will make complaints about my family. Xu Hsu has a very slight expression in his heart.

"The Nine Tailed Fox will soon return to the mainland, and the demons in southern Xinjiang are also gathering. I must ensure that the rebellion of the southern demons can be successful, so as to hold down the Buddhism in the western regions. I'm afraid I can't get involved in the Qingzhou war. "

If Qingzhou wins or loses, it will affect the balance of victory and defeat in this war, but the war in southern Xinjiang is more important. If the southern demon can't take back 100000 mountains, it can't contain Buddhism.

Once Buddhism Teng is allowed to cooperate with Yunzhou, it will not affect the balance of victory or defeat, but Dafeng directly.

"We can ask Gu clan to send troops to reinforce Qingzhou." Luoyuheng road.

"Well, a surprise for Qingzhou." Xu Qian nodded.

Although the extraordinary Gu clan can't leave, the seven tribes can take part in the war. The heart Gu, poison Gu and corpse Gu are the favorite on the battlefield. Dark Gu is a top assassin.

This should greatly relieve the pressure in Qingzhou.
