Mobei;

The fifth prince squatted on the side of the city wall, looking at the fierce battle below: "This is not going to work, change people, they are already tired, standing here can only die."

Junshi Wu said "yes" and hurried down the city wall to arrange people to come up to replace him. As soon as he reached the corner, an arrow feather quickly came and sank a foot into the city wall. Junshi Wu shook his hand and continued walking down.

"Open the city gate" The soldiers guarding the gate hurriedly joined forces to open the city gate, and General Lei and his party quickly retreated;

He took off his armor and cursed: "I see, those barbarians are well-trained, the key is to light a fire and cook three miles outside the city, and the smell will get into my nose along this wind, and the more I fight, the more hungry I am," he stretched out his hand. I took a bite of the gravel-filled yellow flour pancake, and ate it with a bowl of water;

"Can you see the people around?" Wu Junshi asked;

"I saw that there are few people on the east and west sides, but there are mountain depressions on the east and west sides, and you may not be able to survive if you break through." The mountains on the west are called poor mountains and rivers, and they are barren. Not to mention people, plants are difficult to survive.

The only hope is the mountain in the east. That mountain is called Wangshan, with towering vegetation and snow all year round. No one can cross it. There is a river between Northwest City and Mobei City, commonly known as "Dead Mountain". The source is from Wangshan;

Everyone also knows that it is death, and the worst plan is to abandon the city and go up the mountain, but once it falls here, the Northwest City will also fall soon, and the Northwest City will go further into the Central Plains, which is easy to attack and difficult to defend. It is very close, and the people between the Northwest City and the Central Plains will be in the water and fire;

Therefore, no one said that they abandoned the city. The wives, children, and mothers at home are the last bottom line of these soldiers, and they are also the beliefs that they can fight until now;

"Where did Miss Li go?" the Fifth Prince asked;

"Fifth Prince, Miss Li has left the city," Junshi Wu said nervously.

"What? She's out of town at this time of year? How many people did she bring with her?"

"Just her"

"How long have you been out of the city?" The Fifth Prince knew about Li Xixi's kung fu, but this person often disappeared without reporting, which made people very worried.

"I went out yesterday morning." Master Wu knew about the relationship between Ms. Li and the fifth prince, but Ms. Li told her to hide it, and she couldn't help it. It was a headache.

"Send someone out to harass the enemy army in the east"

"I'll arrange it now." Wu Junshi understood that the fifth prince wanted to attract some firepower so that Miss Li could come into the city.

"Aren't I coming back?" Li Xixi appeared at the door, looked at the fifth prince with her arms crossed, and grinned, "This barbarian is getting more and more concerned about food, and it's hard for me to do anything."

Some time ago, Li Xixi led a small team to attack the barbarians in the middle of the night and stole a lot of food. Later, the barbarians learned to be smart, and sent a batch of food every three days. I can steal it by myself from time to time.

It would be unrealistic to say that they burned their food and grass. If the other party was forced to step up their efforts, Mobei would not even have time to delay.

"In a few days, go out along the east side." The fifth prince had already prepared for the worst.

"You want to drive me away?" Li Xixi sat down on the chair behind the fifth prince and said steadily;

"The imperial court's support is estimated to be difficult. There has been no reply to the letter sent. I'm afraid it will be even more difficult for the food and grass. There must be someone in the capital who wants me to die here. I don't want to drag you down." The letter sent by the fifth prince has never been received. After receiving a reply, there was no response to the letter Li Xixi sent to Su Xing. The two knew Su Xing's temperament, and it was impossible to let the Fifth Prince ignore it, but there was only one possibility for the delay in replying, that is, there were changes in the capital.

"I'm free to come and go, don't worry, even if Mobei dies, I can still get out of the body." Li Xixi said with a smile, "It's getting hotter today, I'm going to fetch water and take a bath." After finishing speaking, he walked out briskly , but finally couldn't hold back the blood in his mouth when he reached the no-man's land in the backyard, and spewed out in one gulp;

"Damn, this barbarian is really capable, Su Xing, if you don't come, I'm afraid you won't see my old lady." Li Xixi wiped the corner of her mouth casually and went to fetch water from the well.

The next morning, the leader of the barbarians brought people up and it was a forceful attack. The precarious city gate made people feel that it was about to be broken several times, but it held on again and again;

The fifth prince looked at the situation below: "Fireballs are hung on the edge of the city wall"

The people brought the stove from the city. In the summer, the stove was so hot that everyone sweated so much that there was no dry place on their bodies. They tied a fireball to one end of a stick and rolled it back and forth on the city wall. The hot barbarian army could not climb;

"This wave is a bit strong." Lei Buxiu guarded the southern city gate, looking from afar along the phantom created by the scorching sun, he could still see the barbarian team repairing by the river.

"These have mothers but no mothers, occupying the bridge cables, thanks to the lack of rain here, or they will drown them." Lei Buxiu cursed a few words and went down from the city wall to look for Wu Junshi.

"Fifth prince, go down, it's too dangerous up there." Wu Junshi persuaded the fifth prince, does the emperor not plan to have this son?Mobei is almost gone, and the fifth prince is still here.

"I won't go down. Seeing that they plan to attack by force this time, if we can survive this time, we will have a chance to wait for rescue." The fifth prince looked at their different harassment from the past, and seemed unwilling to wait.

"Whether you can get through this is something to talk about. Now take General Lei and Miss Li and flee. I will increase the firepower in the east and lead people to rush out. You will follow behind." Wu Junshi said and lowered his head. Fly over a fireball.

"Don't talk nonsense, if I leave, I will be a sinner, and the people in this city are still counting on us." The fifth prince said as he pulled Wu Junshi down the city wall, and just walked a few steps and met General Lei.

"How about you?" The fifth prince asked eagerly.

"It feels like they specialize in one place, and there are few people in the south, but there are people behind, and I feel that they have to look for opportunities to fight up at any time." Lei Buxiu explained the situation, looked at Wu Junshi and the fifth prince, "Or else I will fight? Do you have to fight like this?" consume us"

"No, they are not like usual today, I'm afraid they want to try a wave of ruthlessness, let's persevere." The fifth prince frowned and said, "Pull all the usable things in the city, wood, stones, guys, whatever you have. Let's take it first. hold on to this wave"

"Okay, I'll go right away." After they finished speaking, they separated and acted.

......

"There is no food and grass first, and it will be more difficult for us to go." As an inexperienced general, Xie Tangfeng also knows the truth of food and grass first;

"The current plan is to go first to know the situation. Have you heard from Li Xixi these days?" Su Xing comforted Xie Tangfeng and asked Shen Yun;

"Not yet, I'm afraid the situation is not good"

"How's the grain and grass arrangement?" Before leaving the capital, the two arranged for "black riders" to buy grain privately, and it had been secretly sent to Mobei.

"No accident, I should have passed Shahe County at this moment."

"Yeah" Su Xing calculated the time, it would take about a month to reach Mobei at the current speed, and he could only hope that the food would save the emergency so that the Fifth Prince and the others could delay a little longer.

There are eight thousand soldiers behind, advancing steadily and methodically, suddenly a small black dot appeared in front of them, getting closer and closer, when the man on horseback saw Su Xing and Shen Yun clearly, the anxiety on his face finally broke, and then With a "plop", he fell off his horse;

Holding the secret letter in his hand, Su Xing learned about the situation in Mobei City. There was a shortage of food and grass. Now the soldiers who went up the city wall would eat twice a day, and the rest would eat once a day. The barbarians separated Mobei from the city. The connection with Northwest City surrounded Mobei City and wanted to starve the generals in the city to death.

Li Xixi and the fifth prince suspect that there are spies, but the morale of the soldiers is not high now. If they openly search for spies, the soldiers will be more anxious, so they can only look for them in secret;

On the other hand, someone from the imperial court must have responded and made a deal with the barbarians, but it was impossible to know who it was, and all the letters sent out were hijacked. It can be said that this letter was delivered to Su Xing after a narrow escape.

After the messenger woke up, several people got to know it again. Now Mobei's life is hanging by a thread, and they are waiting for the court's support.

Su Xing ordered Xie Tangfeng to lead the soldiers to follow in the same night, and she led a thousand cavalry to rush to Mobei.

Finally arrived in the Northwest City after seven days, Su Xing only rested for two hours to prepare to enter the city. Who ever wanted to keep the gatekeepers from entering, and said that the situation is complicated now, and opening the gates is afraid of barbarian spies entering;

The rhetoric of Dayi Lingran was actually unwilling to let them go. The cavalrymen all had tired faces and chapped lips. They thought they could take a rest here, but they never thought that they would not even be able to enter the city.

"The people above said that no one can let go. My northwest city is the last line of defense, so don't be careless." City Lord Li on the city wall roared to the people below;

"Mobei is the last line of defense, why don't you step forward to support?" Su Xing raised his head with bloodshot eyes and asked City Lord Li.

"Support? Mobei has been trapped for several days. I'm afraid he's starved to death. Shall we go there to die? The people in my northwest city will die?" City Lord Li looked at the cavalry below while leaning on the city wall with a big belly. ;

"Is this how you are officials? Dodging responsibility in the face of catastrophe, regardless of the life and death of your colleagues? The fifth prince is still in Mobei City, are you not afraid to punish you as a deserter?" Su Xing asked City Lord Li tentatively;

"Fifth prince? I'm afraid I died for my country. What's wrong with me defending my city? Even if the emperor knew about it, he wouldn't blame me. Mobei City was about to perish, and I went to Northwest City. That's the ultimate stupidity." After finishing speaking, City Lord Li looked unwilling to talk to Su Xing again;

With a sound of "咻", an arrow feather passed through the top of City Lord Li's head, and inserted the cap into the pillar behind him;

City Lord Li squatted down in fright, holding his head and said, "I won't let you go if I don't let you go. If you want to save it, go yourself, don't drag me." After finishing speaking, he ran down the city as if fleeing.

"I'll come back to kill you when Mobei is over." After Shen Yun finished speaking, he looked at Su Xing, the two nodded together, and took everyone to Wangshan;

"Lord Su, the area around Wangshan Mountain is guarded by barbarians, how do we get in?" Cao Hongguang, the leader of the cavalry, asked;

"Go around, at night..." Su Xing lowered his head and talked with Shen Yun and Cao Hongguang about the plan;

The two nodded, and led a group of people into Dawang Mountain;

The author has something to say:

Wang Shan: "Aren't I the Mountain of Hope?"

Su Xing: "You are not worthy"

Wang Shan: "So I am blackened, please call me Dead Mountain"

Everyone: "..." Please go away and be black, we still have to live.
