After the Fairy Disappeared Chapter 439

  He Lingchuan closed his eyes and bowed his head silently.

   This is not the first comrade-in-arms he sent away, and of course it won't be the last.

  They all shed their blood on the land of a foreign land.

  After sweeping this area, all members of the Broken Knife team were injured, to varying degrees.

  Because of taking the lead, He Lingchuan was in distress the most times, and was almost sent out of the dreamland by direct KO twice.

   The price was that a hole was pierced under the ribs, and the right ear was cut off. In comparison, other skin injuries are not worth mentioning.

   When Arlo sewed his ears, he hissed in pain.

   "What's it called!" A Luo's face was black, and a cloth strip was wrapped around his forehead, "Such a big dark room can be rushed in casually?"

   "Didn't I want to make a feint for you?" He Lingchuan grinned, knowing that he was much braver in Soulland than in reality, and the scale of his shots was bigger. "Where is Shi Tuofan, give me some pain relief!"

  Even in Dafang Pot, every battle is a rare opportunity for trial. He has to explore his own fighting style and rhythm.

   If you are not brave here, when will you wait?

   "You can't use it too much, it's addictive." Alo said sternly, "You've been using it too much recently, bear it if you can, it's not like breaking your hands or legs."

   Fortunately, this kind of suppression battle quickly became sporadic. By the afternoon of the fifth day, the Panlong Army had basically taken control of the entire city of Xixiang.

  If the Red General uses the method of continuous sitting to kill, the speed will be much faster.

   This is also a commonly used method in many siege battles, but it loses the favorability of the people.

  In the middle, the Xijin Palace sent troops out of the city several times, trying to cooperate with these scattered troops, but they were all repulsed by the Gale Army waiting outside the palace city.

  After several battle losses, the Xijin Palace did not dare to go out to fight without authorization, but just stayed behind closed doors.

   After all, each time the damage ranged from a few hundred to as many as one or two hundred, but they were unable to break through, and the price was a bit high.

   While Hu Yanzhao was living like a year, Xixiang Miyagi was besieged for ten days.

  The reinforcements he repeatedly announced to his subjects did not even see a shadow.

  The territory promise that General Red made to him was also reduced by one-third compared to before.

   Hu Yanzhao was upset.

   It is said that the city has enough grain and wells everywhere, especially the grain storage is prepared according to the standard of 3,000 people sticking to it for 40 days. When the old man of his family built according to this rule, there were still a bunch of courtiers who objected, saying it was too wasteful.

   Now it seems that the old man is wise.

  However, no matter how wise the old man is, he can't resist the fact that there are 13,000 people squeezed in by Hulala, which is more than four times the number.

  When there are many people, there will be more meals.

  So many people are crowded in the city and can't get out, and they have to eat and drink fat all day long, Hu Yanzhao's heart bleeds.

   Worst of all, there is a serious shortage of medicines.

   There were more than 4,000 wounded in Miyagi, more than 900 seriously injured, and 2 to 300 people died a few days ago because of insufficient medicine or improper first aid.

  There are complaints in the palace and morale is low.

   Moreover, there is another terrible trouble that the old monarch never expected:

   Human and animal defecation.

   There are more than 13,000 people and more than 2,000 horses. Together, they are a full-powered dung-making machine.

   In the past, Miyagi had a special Yexiang team that transported them outside the city every day, but now they can't get out.

  Hu Yanzhao asked the soldiers to throw their feces down the city gate and hit the Panlong army.

   But after being shot and killed more than a dozen people, the soldiers were no longer willing to do this.

   Risking your life to dump defecation is too, too unworthy, not to mention the collection process, why not just find a corner in Miyagi...

  Therefore, there is a smell of blood everywhere in the palace, and there are mosquitoes and flies flying everywhere, accompanied by the mood of the people of Xiqiao who are going down all the way.

  Now He Lingchuan is sitting on the roof of a private house with Liu Tiao, Hu Min and others, eating chicken while looking at Miyagi not far away.

   "The lights above the city gate are all off." Hu Min said with a smile, "It seems that they don't even have oil lamps.

   are starting to save money. "

  The Broken Knife team performed well in the Dragon Throat Pass mission. In addition to the normal military rewards, He Lingchuan also got the benefits of two roast chickens a day for his teammates from the quartermaster. There is nothing to do tonight, so everyone will gather together to have a whole chicken feast, replacing wine with water.

  The door panel smiled and said, "When the wind direction changes, the stench inside the palace city will float out, and no one wants to get close to it. I don't know how the people in Xiqiao can sleep with the dung on their pillows all day long?"

  Wicker reached out and pinched a cross on his waist: "It's time to eat, why are you talking about such a disgusting topic!"

Hu Min also said: "I heard that some deserters came out of the palace city these days, some were shot to death on the spot, and a few managed to sneak over and surrender. The Red General asked them to sit in front of the palace city gate to eat meat and drink, Show it to the townspeople. One sat too close and ate too much, and was shot again."

  Wicker asked him: "You have joined the Gale Army for the longest time, did you have to fight for so long in siege battles before?"

   "Ah, there are pros and cons." Hu Min thought for a while, "The longest time, we besieged the city for more than forty days before we took it down."

  Wicke said "Oh", and didn't ask any more questions.

  He Lingchuan took a bite of the chicken leg. He is the only person here who has participated in the pre-war meeting of the Gange Hall, so he basically knows what the Red General is planning.

"The old monarch of Xilong used the income from the capital city for many years to build the palace city like an iron barrel, which is really easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is said that the defensive talisman has more than ten layers." He explained to his subordinates, "I really want to If you attack by force, you may have to pay for your life. Therefore, the Red General wants to use siege instead of attack, in exchange for victory at the lowest cost."

   Is that all? The Red General and Zhong Shengguang are not in a hurry, obviously they have more considerations.

   And He Lingchuan also has his own doubts:

  This time, why didn't the Red General use the Three Corpse Worms in the surprise attack on the Xixiang Kingdom?

  He heard from Hu Min that the last time he recaptured Weicheng, the Baling army guarding the gate suddenly went berserk and counterattacked his own people, obviously it was the power of the three corpses.

  But this raid mission is more important than taking back Weicheng, why are there no traces of the three corpses on the battlefield?

   This thing is not afraid of Yuanli, and it is not even affected by ordinary practices. It is one of the trump cards of the Red General.

  Why did she use stupid and slow methods to besiege Huyan Zhaojun and his ministers?

  He Lingchuan had a strange idea:

   Is it unusable?

  He once asked Sun Fuping a question:

  Since the Panlong Army blessed by the Dafang Pot is so powerful, why didn't they go all the way back to the Xiluo Kingdom, instead sitting in the Panlong Wasteland?

  Sun Fuping also had no answer.

   Instead, it was Hei Jiao in the illusion of Panlong ruins who gave them a sentence:

  You can't take it away. The Dafang Pot is the Panlong City, and the Panlong City is also the Dafang Pot, which have long been connected as one. Not to mention human beings, even gods cannot be taken away.

   And the Xiyu Kingdom has already left the scope of the Panlong Wasteland. Is it because it is beyond the service area, so the three corpses from the Dafang Pot cannot be brought here?

  If the Red General and Zhong Shengguang cannot take away the Dafang Pot, then this trip to Xixiang...

  Reminiscent of the negotiations between the Red General and Hu Yanzhao in the past few days, it always gave He Lingchuan a strange sense of disobedience. She has always been decisive, when will she give people so many chances?

  He Lingchuan frowned.

   Another five days.

  The Panlong Army didn't waste time either, and had already dispatched several troops to occupy the entire territory of Xijiu to reduce the pressure of fighting in the capital.

During this period, more and more soldiers of Xixiang escaped from the palace in the capital by climbing over the wall. The depression and vitality decline, and the epidemic began to spread inside the tall palace walls.

   Originally, there was a lack of medicine in Yancheng, but now it is even worse. Ordinary soldiers have no chance of treatment even if they are infected with the epidemic.

   It's better to risk your life and escape, there is still a glimmer of life.

   After another five days, even Hu Yanzhao himself was a little confused.

  The look in the eyes of the soldiers is completely different from that of twenty days ago. If there were not some confidantes protecting him, Miyagi would have already

   Mutiny occurred.

  Suddenly a rider galloped towards the bottom of the city, and shouted: "Huyan, come out quickly, your reinforcements are here!"

The guards guarding the city looked down in shock, only to see a big man galloping back and forth down the city on a horse, with a spear held high in his hand, and a bunch of messy human heads, at least five or six of them, all of which were knotted in knots. one place.

   This big man is General Nan Ke.

  He yelled seven or eight times, until he got impatient. Hu Yanzhao, who was pale, climbed to the top of the city gate. When he looked down, he suddenly felt dizzy:

  The string of human heads hanging on General Nan Ke's gun is the generals of the Nanping garrison. From top to bottom, the order is correct.

  He has been cheering up everyone in the city, and reinforcements will come sooner or later.

   Now reinforcements did come, but not in the way they expected.

   "Dang", a long knife in the hand of a small hill at the head of the city fell to the ground, making a loud noise.

  Nobody paid him any attention.

General Nan Ke looked at Hu Yanzhao and said with a smile: "Our Red General will give you one last chance. If you surrender now, you can still claim the title of Marquis south of the Lugua River. Otherwise—" He made another move with his spear, "Next year today, it will be Memorial day for all of you!"

  Lugua River? Hu Yanzhao's lips trembled a few times.

   Now the territory promised to him by the Red General is less than a quarter of the initial one.

  I knew it earlier, I knew it earlier...

  General Nan Ke said again: "By the way, since Hu Yanzhao is stubborn, anyone in your city who can take off his head and offer it will be rewarded with this!"

   There was a gasp in the city.

   Cutting off Hu Yanzhao's head, not only does he not have to continue to be trapped in the city, he doesn't have to continue to starve, he doesn't have to sleep on the side of the dung pile, and he can go to the south of the Lugua River to be a Wanhuhou with clothes to stretch his hands to eat and mouth to open his mouth?

  Even several of Hu Yanzhao's cronies flickered at the master.

   It's really sad these days in the city, and the new monarch has no way to solve it properly.

  Hu Yanzhao only felt that the eyes of everyone looking at him were full of malice, like a wolf staring at a sheep, like a cat staring at a fish...

   Also like the living looking at the dead.

   As long as he reacts a little slower, maybe this group of people can tear him alive in the next second.

   "Wait..." Hu Yanzhao saw someone in the back row raising a long gun to face him, he didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly shouted, "I surrender, I surrender!"

  He yelled "Surrender" first, and he was safe.

  This guy knows a lot, General Nan Ke was overjoyed: "Then what are you waiting for, open the city gate!"
