Chapter 79 Recovering Wuwei
Boom boom boom!
Outside Wuwei City, the sky was full of fireworks, countless huge boulders were flying in the air, and the sky was full of arrows falling like a torrential rain.

Ahhhhh!
From the city wall, the miserable cries of the defenders could be heard constantly.

The towering city walls are riddled with holes and dilapidated, and may collapse at any time.

The soldiers in charge of defense on the top of the city were all pale and bloodless, with panic and panic in their eyes, which was the fear of death.

At the City Lord's Mansion, Qian Hanchong and Ma Shuo stood together, with a group of officials behind them. They looked at the city gate that was being hit hard, and all of them looked very serious.

Just now, another soldier came to report. In just one hour, the number of casualties increased by another 1000.

If it continues, it can last up to two days.

It is true that there are still [-] Northern Qiang cavalry in the city, but they have already heard the news that the God-killing Army attacked and killed [-] reinforcements.

"Uncle should have received the news and will send reinforcements to support."

Ma Shuo's complexion changed, and he said.

"I believe that uncle can arrive in time and defeat them."

Qian Hanchong had a serious expression on his face.

They received the specific news of Ma Qingbiao's defeat yesterday. They were skeptical before, but now they fully believe it.

It's just that they never expected that the enemy's army strength would be so strong.

More than [-] troops are gone, how long can they hold on with [-] troops?

At this time, the enemy army outside the city had not formally attacked the city, but continued to use catapults and crossbows to carry out long-range bombing, causing a large number of casualties among the defenders.

Another soldier sent news that soldiers had fled at the city gate.

"I'm going to supervise the battle myself."

Ma Shuo drew out his saber and said sharply.

Seeing Ma Shuo's leaving figure, Qian Han turned his eyes straight, and suddenly ordered a few words to his servants, then turned and left.

"Inquire clearly, there are only [-] defenders in the city, and they won't last long. A surprise attack will take it down tonight."

Qin You looked into the distance and said, and added, "When the enemy has no reinforcements."

"I am willing to be the vanguard of the Killing God Army. You are responsible for surrounding the other gates. Don't let anyone get away."

Bai Qi said with a light smile.

"what ever."

Qin Yi on the side nodded slightly.

He knew that Bai Qi's killing god army needed to keep killing people, gather murderous aura to improve their strength, and naturally charged bloody at the forefront of the war.

The fortifications of Wuwei City are not much worse than that of Mingwu City. Their three-way army gathered together, more than 3 people, if they attack by force, there will be many casualties.

Therefore, they only chose to use siege equipment, all of which were giant catapults developed by Qin Yuan, which constantly wore down the durability of the city walls to reduce casualties of soldiers.

Of course, since the war broke out, there have been two to three thousand casualties among the soldiers in the city. There are only a handful of casualties on their side, and they just consumed a lot of arrows and rolling stones.

Boom boom boom!
In the distance, there was a sound of trampling horseshoes, getting closer.

Standing on the top of the wall, Ma Shuo looked at the approaching cavalry with anticipation. Could it be reinforcements?

However, there are still tens of thousands of enemy troops outside the city. If they encounter them head-on, they will probably suffer heavy losses again. Moreover, if the enemy troops are outside, opening the city gate will also be risky.

"General, there is a cavalry force of more than 2 people approaching three miles away. It should be the Lord's Dragon Scale Army, but there are also Northern Qiang cavalry in the team."

There was a message from a scout.

"what happened?"

Bai Qi became suspicious, and his first reaction was that Qin Yuan had been captured, but with the Dragon Scale Army by his side, it was almost impossible for the enemy to do so.

"Set up the formation and prepare to meet the enemy."

Bai Qi did not relax his vigilance, and immediately ordered.

Immediately, Qin You's Xuanwu Legion was dispatched, forming an impregnable wall in the rear.

"Fortunately, it's not too late."

Qin Yuan murmured, directly revealing his identity, and the Xuanwu sergeant gave way.

Qin Yuan took Ma Feiteng and several Northern Qiang generals into the army formation.

"Lord, if you were one step later, Wuwei City would have been captured by us."

Bai Qi laughed.

When looking at Qin Yuan, Bai Qi's expression became very strange, and his face collapsed, "I'm going to show off to the lord, I didn't expect the lord to break through so quickly."

Bai Qi's strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and he has broken through to the realm of the eighth level of Houtian. Who would have expected that Qin Yuan would suddenly break through to the ninth level of Houtian from the ninth level of body training, and he did not speak martial arts at all.

"Make people stop the siege."

Qin Yuan looked at Bai Qi and said.

"Yes!"

Qin Yi and Qin Er responded, without asking any reason, and directly sent an order to stop the attack.

"Is this the horse Feiteng of the Northern Qiang people?"

Bai Qi looked at Ma Feiteng, good guy, Houtian Qizhong, this is a strong enemy.

He is tall and straight, powerful, and looks like he should be a big shot in the Northern Qiang tribe. Apart from Ma Feiteng, he can't think of anyone else.

"Yes, this is Ma Feiteng, the leader of the Northern Qiang."

Qin Yuan introduced, "This is Bai Qi, and these two are Qin Yi and Qin You. We will be colleagues from now on, let's get to know each other."

"Meet some generals."

Ma Feiteng didn't care about it at first, but Qin Yuan had a few acquired masters, which can be expected.

However, when he looked at Bai Qi, he was surprised to find that the young man in white clothes who spoke was not weaker than him. Did he practice in the womb?
He is the acquired seventh level, and he is a rare master in the mainland of China, and he is even more powerful among the Northern Qiang people.

After taking refuge in Qin Yuan, he considered himself the strongest general under Qin Yuan, and even if other people had acquired realm, they could not be his opponents.

However, Bai Qi actually has the realm of the acquired eighth level. Although the boy in white smiles very brightly, it makes him feel jealous.

Ma Feiteng looked at Qin Yuan and sighed. Sure enough, outstanding people exist together. This lord is even more domineering.

However, in the future, can I be considered to be included in their circle?
After a while, Ma Feiteng led several generals towards the city gate and shouted at the soldiers on the gate.

The fighting between the two sides had stopped, and when Ma Feiteng arrived, Ma Shuo's expression on the top of the wall was changing.

"Shuo'er, uncle is here, open the city gate immediately."

Ma Feiteng shouted loudly, and immediately recognized Ma Shuo who got up quickly.

The general of the [-] cavalry stationed in Wuwei City is Ma Feiteng's nephew.

The importance of Wuwei City is self-evident, so the general is not a Han or Ma Qingbiao, but he personally arranged for his nephew Ma Shuo.

"uncle?"

Ma Shuo was dubious, and looked at the people around him, all of whom were familiar faces.

However, Ma Feiteng came with Qin Yuan's army, and the two sides seemed to be very harmonious, which made him puzzled, and the siege battle stopped for no reason.

"That's right. I have made peace with Duke Qin. We will no longer fight each other. The war ends here."

Ma Feiteng did not say that he took refuge in Qin Yuan, but expressed it euphemistically.

There is a layer of worry in this, that is, if Ma Shuo or the generals in the city do not agree, if Ma Shuo or the generals in the city do not approve, there will be another big battle.

After all, surrendering to the Han people has never been a glorious thing.

Especially as a foreign race in the grassland, it is a shame to voluntarily surrender to the Han people.

After confirming Ma Feiteng's identity again and again, Ma Shuo sent someone to open the city gate.

"Ma Feiteng has really taken refuge in him. It's really disappointing."

Bai Qi shook his head and sighed, it seemed that he had broken through the Houtian Nine Layers, and he would not be able to reach it in a short time. "Of course, the lord is wise and powerful, and it's not a matter of shock to subdue a Northern Qiang barbarian."

"Okay, just say this behind your back, don't say it in front of others."

Qin Yuan said calmly, then patted the horse's back and headed towards Wuwei City with its gates wide open.

"Don't worry, my lord, I have my own measure."

Bai Qi said indifferently, although he was a little disappointed, he didn't have the slightest opinion about Ma Feiteng, at most he was just talking, and the atmosphere was active.

"Master Taishou, the battle seems to have stopped?"

In the City Lord's Mansion, an official asked suspiciously. The sound of boulder bombardment no longer came from the city gate.

"Prefect, Juncheng, Chief Ma Feiteng is back."

One person came to report.

"Oh, the enemy army has retreated." Qian Han breathed a sigh of relief.

"No, no, let's go to the city together!"

The man gasped.

"What? Go to town together?"

Qian Hanchong was startled, his thoughts quickly flowed, and he asked quickly. "Is there Qin Yuan here?"

"Small ones don't know."

Qian Hanchong's expression changed suddenly, and he suddenly threw away his hand and ran to the back hall. No one knew why. After a few breaths, all the officials present turned pale in panic and left the city lord's mansion in a panic.

It is well known that the siege force came from Mingwu City, and the person in charge was Qin Yuan from the Qin family.

At the same time, they also investigated Qin Yuan's information.

That kid, many of them had met before, looked ordinary before.

It's just that Qin Yuan didn't expect that Qin Yuan had such a great ability. In less than two months, he formed an army of 8 people and defeated the Northern Qiang people.

This is not the point, the point is how Ma Feiteng and Qin Yuan got together.

No matter what the reason was, those of them who took the initiative to join the Northern Qiang would probably not end well.

Don't run at this time, wait until later.
