This day was like a dream for the people of "Yancheng".Two young and handsome boys rushed straight to the barracks after beating the sergeants guarding the camp.Then it came out that the Xixia people were coming to "strike the grass valley", and the general and the county magistrate had already fled with their family members and cronies.

"Yancheng" quickly messed up, but quickly settled down again.The reason is that those two young men have kidnapped the most senior lieutenant general in the barracks.The lieutenant general had never dealt with the general very much, so he was not notified when the general left.

The highest officer in the army was held hostage, and all those who rushed to rescue were killed by a martial arts master with a knife.Now everyone is obedient to those two people, and if they refuse to obey, that short master can knock down dozens of strong men by himself without any effort.

The two also said that each of those who help defend the city will be given ten guan kuai as a settling allowance, and there will be a big reward afterwards.Many people went to sign up, and when the box was opened, it was not copper coins, but snow-white engraved silver.The people who signed up really got the money, and happily went to carry the things to keep the city.

Not long after, someone came out and only signed up without taking any money, saying: "The hero of the rivers and lakes could have left directly. He committed such a big thing in order to guard our 'Yancheng'. I don't want the money. I just want the hero to know. The men of our 'Yancheng' are also bloody!"

If someone takes the lead, there will be more people to follow.The common people seemed to have found their backbone suddenly, and began to prepare hard for the defense of the city.

Soon, Nan Xing and Xiao Jianseng found that although militiamen came in continuously, they had nothing to move.

"Yancheng" and other important border cities, the armaments are only about [-]% of the book, and nearly half of them are inferior.Bows with no strings, arrows with rotten feathers, rusty and aging swords and guns, armor that fell apart... Anyway, Nan Xing opened his eyes and was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.

Fortunately, there are still some defensive items such as thunderstones, rolling logs, forks, and crash cars that are not easy to exchange for money, otherwise the city would not need to be defended at all.

In the evening, the newly dispatched scouts reported that the Xixia people were only thirty miles away from "Yancheng".In his busy schedule, Xiao Jianseng pulled the equally busy Nan Xing down from the city wall, and had to say something.

"Jiujiu, have you thought about it, do you really want to defend the city here?"

Nan Xing was taken aback: "Am I not obvious enough?"

"That's not what it means." Xiao Jianseng said: "If you want to leave, no one can stop you, and you will be able to leave the border soon, and you will still be that Jiujiu whose hands have not been stained with blood. If you stay, the killing ring will not be broken. I can't."

Nan Xing fixed Xiao Jianseng with a pair of bright phoenix eyes: "What does Sensen want me to do?"

Xiao Jianseng said: "If it's up to me, I hope you will leave immediately. It's best to forget about everything here and act as if nothing happened."

Nan Xing blinked: "I'm actually quite disobedient."

Xiao Jianseng smiled wryly: "I see."

Nan Xing also laughed: "Daddy wants me to obey the commandment of killing. I think it's because with my martial arts, killing people is too easy. Daddy is afraid that I will lose my respect for human life and just kill. Now, since there is something that must be killed The reason is that if it is opened, it will be opened. I have killed countless fish and shrimps, and I also like to eat freshly steamed hairy crabs. Many things have died because of me. Didn’t you say "grass valley" Are they all inferior to animals, then I can kill them with peace of mind."

Xiao Jianseng touched Nan Xing's head: "If that's the case, I won't persuade you anymore."

Nan Xing rubbed his hand: "We will all be fine."

Xiao Jianseng nodded firmly.Suddenly another thing came to mind: "Are you still going to use a heavy ax?"

Nan Xing said: "No need. That's the weapon of the 'Double-eyed Giant Axeman', and it has nothing to do with us. I have a lot of weapons that I can use. By the way, does Sensen still need to wear a mask?"

Xiao Jianseng was born with that kind of handsome with a little delicate feeling, not as delicate as Wuqing, but it is definitely good-looking, not like a life-threatening appearance.So when you usually have to do it, you are used to wearing a grimace mask.

Xiao Jianseng said: "You don't need an ax anymore, so naturally I don't wear a mask."

Nan Xing smiled: "Okay. When you return to Beijing, imprint your face and touch it. I will make you some masks to wear. Sensen will be a general in the future, and he will definitely be more prestigious than King Lanling."

Xiao Jianseng's eyes were extremely gentle: "Okay."

……

The night passed quickly, and even though they did their best to prepare, seeing the Xixia people who could not see the end of the city below the city wall, the soldiers on the city wall were still frightened.No wonder the general and county magistrate both fled.Usually "Dacaogu" has at most [-] riders, which can already loot the whole city.Now there are as many as five or six thousand people under the city.

Nan Xing also did not expect that the first time she killed a defenseless person was not a foreign enemy but a Song person.She personally killed two sergeants who encouraged her comrades to open the city gate and surrender.With a sweep of the spear/gun, the head fell to the ground, and the blood spurted out a foot away.

Nan Xing stepped on the blood, the spear/spear landed on the ground, and the voice was filled with internal force: "Those who disturb the morale of the army, beheaded!"

The two heads were hung up high, and it was only then that everyone remembered that these two well-spoken young men were martial arts masters who held the lieutenant hostage. As long as they wanted to, they could "kill without blinking an eye" at any time.

At the same time, the tragic situation outside the city also made these people more sober.

"Yancheng" is a big city with many villages around it.Xiao Jianseng had already sent people to notify the villagers to come to the city to take refuge.Many villagers came obediently, and many did not come due to various considerations.Some of these people hid in tunnels dug by their own homes, some hid in mountains, some hid in wells, and more fled with their families.

They were right in thinking, if they all gathered in "Yancheng", once the city was broken, wouldn't there be no life at all.They don't believe that those soldiers who can only collect taxes can beat the Xixia people.

Now, Xixia soldiers drove a hundred villagers to the front of the team, playing and killing in public.They cut off a man's limbs and watched him crawl away screaming; they tore off a woman's clothes, played with obscenity, and laughed to see them go from struggling to motionless; Demonstrating by brandishing guns...

Covering Nan Xing's eyes with one hand, Xiao Jianseng's voice rang in his ears: "Don't look at it. This is Xi Xia's usual method, and the people below will come to persuade them to surrender. It's good to hear, they are all like this to disturb the morale of the army."

Nan Xing gritted her teeth tightly, even if she couldn't see, she could hear. Her "everything is born" is also very good at feeling all things. This soaring fear, pain, and hatred made Nan Xing almost breathless.

In addition to cursing the Xixia people, those villagers also desperately asked for help from the city wall, but everyone knew that neither cursing nor asking for help would have any effect.

Next, as Xiao Jianseng said, the Xixia people who are proficient in Chinese began to persuade them to surrender.What to say, "As long as you open the city gate, you can only take money and food without hurting people." "Resisters will definitely destroy their entire family." "Those who take the lead in surrendering can keep their families safe."

Anyone with a little brain would not believe these nonsense, but every time there are people who take chances just around the corner.Now some people go to the street and express their willingness to donate their family wealth, just to survive.

Someone took the lead, and there were soon responders. Some people in the city shouted at the defenders: "If the defenders resist and anger the Xixia people, and want to massacre the city, how innocent are the people in the city!" "If you don't open the door and surrender now!" Anyway, as long as they have money and food, they will leave when they grab enough." "Before negotiating, they put on a fight, and those two Jianghu people are saving people or harming people!"

Xiao Jianseng didn't say anything, he just asked people to throw the two still fresh headless corpses into the street, and soon, the city became quiet.

Nan Xing's eyes were confused: "Brother Jian, did I do something wrong?"

Before Xiao Jianseng could speak, the militiaman next to him said first: "Little righteous men, don't listen to those people's nonsense, they are idiots who are stupid in reading. It's not the first time we 'Yancheng' have seen 'Dacaogu', Xixia Who doesn't know what a person's virtue is, and has never kept his word."

Another person also said: "That's right! The county magistrate also collected money and food from house to house and sent them all over, just asking them not to enter the city, but that time they didn't kill fewer people than usual."

The soldiers and militiamen on the city tower agreed one after another. As long as the family lives in Yancheng, no one has any hatred for the Xixia people.

Nan Xing murmured: "But if they want to surrender..."

Xiao Jianseng pressed Nan Xing's shoulder: "They didn't want to surrender, they wanted to survive. It's like I believed Ling Luoshi's words for a while and threw a knife to surrender. It's time to regret it. Didn't you teach me by other people's hands? .”

Only then did Nan Xing nod, "That's right! We should write down the names of those people, and when the battle is over, we should pull them out to play board games."

Immediately, a soldier nearby said, "I know them, and I know where their homes are. Don't worry, the righteous men will not be able to escape."

Nan Xing's spirit was much better: "Then I'll trouble you, and after the battle is over, I must clean them up!"

……

It was only when the war started that Nan Xing realized how easy it is to say "the war is over" but how difficult it is to do it.

The sergeant's equipment was not enough, the equipment for defending the city was insufficient, and the existing arrow branches were exhausted before they even lasted for a quarter of an hour.Without the arrows, they could only watch a large number of Xixia cavalry approaching the city wall.

Seeing that several ladders had been erected, Jianseng Xiao gave an order, and several sections of huge rolling logs rolled down from the city wall, smashing and injuring the overwhelmed cavalry and rolling into a ball for a moment, effectively stopping the Xixia army's offensive.

There are holes on the city wall for throwing thunder stones and rolling logs. Everyone does not know that the most important hole closest to the city gate is only in charge of by Nan Xing.Because only she is there, she can directly take out the logs stored in "Mustard Seed", which can save a lot of energy.

Nan Xing was pushing the log, while soldiers smashed down countless stones on the city wall, condescending, sometimes smashing stones is more effective than shooting arrows.These stones and rolling logs are Nan Xing's "combat preparations".No one but her could have moved so much in such a short period of time.

For a time, countless soldiers were crushed to death and injured.What's more, the log rolled far away with internal force startled many horses, and the Xixia camp became chaotic visible to the naked eye.

Xixia soldiers are also human beings, and they are also afraid of death.Seeing this, the captains of each team hurriedly called their soldiers to retreat.

In this way, the first batch of offensives finally survived.
