In Qin Dynasty, the hero of the bright moon dominates the world

Chapter 127

Yunzhong County.

The isolated city stands outside, and the low city walls are built with earth and stones, which are now in dilapidated condition.

Looking as far as the eye can see, the distant grassland is withered and yellow.The weather was dry and it hadn't rained for many days.

"How's it going?"

Zhao Jun's defender stood on the city wall and glanced behind him. Those who hadn't retreated were all gathered here at the moment.

The faces of the soldiers in the city were yellow and bloodless, and their lips were cracked.

"The wells in the city can still get some water, but they can't supply so many people."

The food and grass in the city are getting less and less, and the horses are getting thinner and thinner.Zhao Jun's soldiers glanced at the guard with hesitation on their faces.

"My lord, there is something I don't know whether to say or not to say?"

General Zhao Jun looked at the soldiers under him, saw that their expressions were different, and asked.

"What?"

"It was the caravan in the city that brought the Huns over. Why don't we hand it over to the Huns outside the city in exchange for their withdrawal?"

General Zhao Jun looked hesitant and looked back. Almost all the buildings in this small city had been demolished and used as fuel and supplies for the defense of the city. group.

Zhao Jun's guards have been guarding here for many years. It can be seen at a glance that the guards of this caravan are not simple roles.

It can be seen from their eyes that these people are veterans who have experienced a lot of weather and are indifferent to life and death.

Among them, everyone has strong arms and extremely sophisticated coordination, and many of them are archers with excellent shooting skills.

Zhao Jun's defenders had secretly investigated, and their team had hidden strong bows and two carts of arrows.

Thinking about it, how could it be a simple character who dared to do business with barbarians in this desert grassland.

General Zhao Jun shook his head and put this very tempting idea behind him for the time being.

It is too risky to attack this caravan now. If one is not good, it will hurt both sides, and on the contrary, it will benefit the barbarians outside.

"What do you say above, are there any reinforcements?"

King Zhao suddenly transferred Li Mu and his elite troops away, and now Yunzhong, Daijun and other places have weak troops.

Zhao Jun's soldiers shook their heads. Several waves of sentry cavalry had been dispatched, but there was still no news from the rear.

"Zhao Jun is unable to send out reinforcements."

The sudden appearance of the voice made Zhao Jun's guarding the city stunned. Before his eyes, there was an extra figure at some point.

He was dressed in commoner clothes with a thick jacket and a red mask.

"who are you?"

The soldiers of Zhao Jun were shocked, but then the sound of war drums rang in their ears.

"Enemy attack, east."

Zhao Jun's guard roared and ignored the strange man in front of him.

"Lie down! Lie down!"

Arrows flew all over the sky, like the scythe of death, and those who showed a little flaw were harvested.

Not only Zhao Jun's soldiers, but also the people in the city hid behind the trenches that had been prepared, but those who had no time to get in fell to the ground.

Life disappears like a cloud of smoke, the sky is dim, and the sound of blood and wailing is unheard.

Zhao Jun's guard helped his helmet, raised his head, and wanted to check the damage, but found that the man with the red mask was still standing there with his hands behind his back.

There seemed to be a magical power on his body, as if the Huns' arrows could not hurt him.

In this doomsday-like picture, the person in front of him seems to have a different style of painting.

I saw him cruising on the city wall with his hands behind his back, as if watching the enemy's situation, his back was like a mountain, giving people a sense of security.

The roar of a tiger resounded outside the city, and the sound of the siege seemed to stop in an instant.

The general of Zhao Jun boldly stretched out his head from behind the wall, his eyes opened to the limit in an instant.

Everyone saw that the more than 1000 vicious soldiers of the Huns outside the city were rushed into the battle formation by a huge mechanism beast like ghosts and gods, killing wildly.

The white tiger of the mechanism ran across the Huns' army formation and entered from the right. The strong soldiers and sharp blades were unstoppable. Soon, they disrupted the Huns' attacking camp.

Before half an hour came, the problem of the Huns, which had plagued the soldiers of Zhao Jun for a long time, had been resolved.

The Xiongnu fled in all directions, and the cheers of Zhao Jun resounded in the city.

The general guarding the city stood up, looked at the person in front of him, and felt a loud and unpredictable feeling.However, just as the guard wanted to speak and express his gratitude, the person in front of him had already said it first.

"Please settle the money."

"what money?"

The defending general stood up with some doubts in his voice.

"The money to help you defend the city!"

"Do you still want money?"

The guard was a little surprised, he could tell that the person in front of him was a disciple of the Mo family.He has been guarding the border city for many years, but he still has a good eye. The mechanism beast should be one of the four spirit beasts of the Mo family, the mechanism white tiger.

Among the Mohists, those who can mobilize the white tiger in the mechanism should have an extraordinary status.

However, the words and deeds of this person of extraordinary status are completely different from the words and deeds of the Mohist disciples in the guard's impression.

"It doesn't cost money to help people fight wars. Would you do such a thing?"

Zhao Shuang's words made the general Zhao Jun speechless for a while.

"Husband!"

At this moment, a woman trotted over with a worried look on her face.

Zhao Shuang looked at the woman and let out a little surprise.

This woman is not outstanding in appearance, she is wearing a dress, although it is Zhao people's clothing, but she wears Hu Nu's accessories on her body.

"Are you a barbarian?"

Zhao Shuang's words did not cause any trouble. In this borderland, it is normal to take a Hu girl.General Zhao Guoshou pulled his wife and said.

"Meet the Mohists"

For a while, the Zhao Jun guard didn't know what to say, but Zhao Shuang took the topic lightly.

"Jade Faced Dragon!"

The bearded girl saluted without any mistakes, obviously she had been here for a long time.

"Which tribe of Hu people are you from?"

Zhao Shuang's question made the woman bow her head, and she was a little shy, but her husband didn't care, and answered casually.

"My wife is a descendant of the moon wolf. The barbarian tribe is complicated, and the commander must have never heard of it."

Descendants of the Moon Wolf?

"Commander, I will definitely pay for the Mohists' sending troops to help our army this time."

Before the guard finished speaking, Zhao Shuang put his shoulders on him.

"What money is not money, as the saying goes, all brothers are brothers. I was just joking just now, but can I really ask for your money?"

The guard was taken aback for a moment, but he heard Zhao Shuang continue talking.

"People of my Mo family always put chivalry first, and money is the least important. Since the moment I saw your wife, I have made you my friend."

Why does this sound weird?

At this moment, a flying cavalry galloped towards here, setting off a lot of smoke and dust.

Zhao Jun's soldiers raised their bows and set their arrows. They were about to stop Lai Qi from moving forward, but they were stopped by Zhao Shuang.

"Commander, the Xiongnu's [-] cavalry have already come here, and within two days, they will arrive at this city."

The disciples of the Mo family came with this information, and the city was full of uproar.

Zhao Shuang's voice rang in the guard's ears again, with a bit of awe.

"King Zhao has already planned to shrink the border defense line to save strength. The reinforcements will not be able to get through. Lead the soldiers and civilians in the city and withdraw the troops immediately."

"But the Xiongnu's [-] riders are approaching, so many of us, even if we escape, we won't be able to escape very far."

"Don't worry, I'll stop them."

Zhao Shuang patted the guard's shoulder, and the heavy strength from his hand reassured him.However, this emotion only lasted for a short time.

"Also, your wife borrowed it from me."
