Zhang Shuchuan was sleeping beautifully next to Xia Yunrou.

Hearing a "beep" sound, he opened his eyes suddenly.

As soon as he moved, Xia Yunrou woke up.

"Daughter-in-law! Let's leave quickly! The Xilin people actually attacked the capital city of Hezhou!"

Xia Yunrou stood up quickly and woke everyone up with Zhang Shuchuan.

When everyone heard that all the people from Xilin had come to Fucheng in the south, they hurriedly packed their things and walked away from Fucheng in the night.

Although they walked for a day, they didn't go very far. It only took half a day to get to the capital of Hezhou.

If the Xilin people were chasing after them, they would catch up within an hour or two.

"Isn't the plague rampant in the Xilin army? How could it come to the south?"

Everyone was very confused and asked about their doubts while walking on the roadside.

Zhang Shuchuan thought for a while and replied: "The lost land in the north has been recovered, but only one or two households out of ten are left. There is also a severe drought. The Xilin people have no great use now. Instead, they have to arrange troops to guard it. This is undoubtedly harmful to It was disadvantageous for them, so Da Gan took it back so easily."

"As for the plague in the army, it is also possible that the news was released by the Xilin people in order to paralyze Daqian so that he could relax his vigilance.

This time, they bypassed the north and attacked directly to the south, just to catch them off guard. It's also because no matter how severe the drought is, the resources in the south are richer than those in the north, and the defense in the south is too weak. "

He has seen the entire map of Daqian Kingdom. Because Hezhou Fucheng is at the junction of the north and south, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If he captures Hezhou Fucheng, he can directly attack the Central Plains plains without any hindrance.

Because further south, it’s almost all flat land.

The southern part of Daqian only focuses on agriculture, and all its troops are scattered in the north and the surrounding small countries.

As for how Xilin could reach the south without alerting the troops in the northern border of Daqian, it was nothing more than colluding with neighboring countries and dispatching troops from neighboring countries.

Everyone was a little confused at this time. If Xilin attacked the capital, where should they go?

Xia Yunrou glanced at Lao Zhang, who was talking eloquently, and comforted everyone: "Xilin probably won't be able to invade the capital so quickly, and it may not be possible to invade."

Although the military strength of Hezhou Prefecture is not as good as that of the Northern Territory, if it can hold up Daqian's troops and react, it should not be able to break the city.

As a result, not long after she said that, everyone saw fire rising on the horizon behind them.

Just like the situation when their Xiahe village was burned down by a fire.

The firelight reflected on everyone's face, showing the same shocked expression.

"This! I'm afraid it's not good!"

Old man Zhang looked at the fire and murmured.

Ma Yuan's resolute face showed a rare hint of anxiety.

When the fire engulfed the city, he didn't show any expression and just arranged for people to put out the fire.

Then he stared at the door, wondering what he was thinking.

After a while, a black shadow flew in front of him.

"General Zhu has led an army of [-] to gather at the west gate!"

Ma Yuan's eyes lit up, he pressed his fists and said, "Great! It's finally here!"

The small group of armored men who were killing and looting in noodle shops and restaurants were just about to have a feast when they were quickly killed by a large group of soldiers.

As for their large team, when all the people entered the city gate, the city gate behind them was quickly closed.

Before they could react, they saw rockets shooting towards them with oil.

The leader shouted anxiously: "No! We have fallen into a trap!"

When the oil is poured on a person, it quickly ignites when it touches the fire.

Suddenly, the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling came one after another, just like purgatory on earth.

They fled in all directions, but before they could get very far, thorns on the ground dug into the soles of their feet. They sat down on the ground in pain, and ended up with thorns digging into their buttocks as well.

Then they saw a steady stream of Daqian soldiers coming towards them.

The leader, General Xilin, didn't understand until his death. They thought they could take the capital city of Hezhou directly, but in the end, their entire army was annihilated.

How did Da Gan know in advance?

This has to be asked by the adults in Hezhou Fucheng.

In fact, he had known for a long time that the poor child was instigated by the Xilin people, and that the dog hole was not dug by a dog, but made by man.

The Xilin people disguised themselves as refugees and entered the city several times to collect information about the city. Then when the Xilin army came, they cooperated inside and outside, killed the gatekeepers, disguised themselves as them, and opened the city gate in the middle of the night.

In this way, the Xilin army can come in directly without any effort.

As soon as they come in, with the strength of Fucheng's troops, there is no way they can stop them. They will easily kill them!

Ma Yuan's murder was indeed their work.

But it was also because Xilin promised his men that if the city was captured, the master of the city would belong to him.

But even he didn't expect that he would be so good at it that he would almost die.

As for the killers who came later, they were sent by people from the opponent's family in the capital.

Naturally, this matter will be settled slowly when he returns to the capital.

He appeared on the city wall with the gauze wrapped around his head.

Looking at the Xilin Army below who were killed without leaving a single piece of armor behind, there was no compassion in his eyes.

If Hezhou Prefecture is occupied by the Xilin people, it will be a real purgatory on earth.

Soon, part of the Xilin army surrendered, while the other part was still resisting.

Those who surrender can still live, but those who stubbornly resist can only die.

"You are so laid-back and can watch the fun!"

A dissatisfied voice suddenly sounded behind Ma Yuan.

Zhu Jinyu strode over with a long sword in hand.

"Thank you for your hard work, brother!" Ma Yuan turned around and bowed to Zhu Jinyu.

Immediately the two burst out laughing.

Zhu Jinyu: "This battle was really enjoyable! This Xilin Dazi is so crazy that he thinks the south is so easy to capture! Haha"

Ma Yuan: "We can't take it lightly. If we hadn't discovered and planned it in advance, Hezhou Prefecture would be a living hell now!"

Zhu Jinyu nodded. He was naturally vigilant and would only speak like this in front of his friends.

The two discussed it some more before leaving.

The sky was already bright.

Xia LaoDa and Xia LaoEr were disguised as refugees from Xilin and were arrested.

They explained, but the soldiers couldn't let them go easily.

It was Mrs. Xia who somehow found out that her two sons had been arrested.

With snot and tears, she begged the soldiers who detained the suspect to let her two sons go. She also told the story of where she had wandered from. Without her two sons, how could she, an old woman, survive.

It was about a scene that burst into tears, was so touching, and even moved the soldiers.

They also investigated and found that these two people were indeed not from Xilin, so they released them.

After being freed, Xia Laoer held Mrs. Xia in tears.

"Mom, where have you been? My son almost lost sight of you!"
