Chapter 226 No.20 Scene Nine: Wolves Disaster Seven

The young Hehan's head was covered with sweat, and a few strands of hair were stuck to his forehead wet and messy.The iron finger in his hand flew to nowhere when he fell from the tower just now, but now he is still holding onto Xiaotianmo with all his strength.Although the palm was facing the spine of the knife, the fingers were still cut into the flesh by the sharp blade, and the bone was clearly visible.

The excruciating pain almost made Jiang Yan faint.However, a voice in his heart kept echoing in his ears, reminding him that he could not give up just yet.

The black-eyed boy burst out new strength from nowhere, and he was about to be bitten by the giant wolf, and Xiao Tianmo, who was almost stuck in his throat, pushed forward half a foot.And that giant wolf, which weighed hundreds of catties, took a step forward, not to be outdone, and put almost all of its weight on Jiang Yan's body!
"Beast! You don't want to take my life today!"

The young Hehan shouted loudly, and suddenly let go of his left palm holding the blade.Although he fell to the ground, he still held up the seven-foot long knife in his hand with the strength of his waist and abdomen. He did not charge forward at all, and used a nearly perfect move to destroy the mountain on the spot!

The power on Xiaotianmo suddenly increased, making Chi Lang feel a little afraid.However, the strength in his mouth weakened a little, and Xiao Tianmo passed through the tightly clenched wolf teeth like a black-gold lightning bolt, making a loud noise like a dragon's chant.

The giant beast sensed something was wrong, and immediately let go of its mouth and wanted to back away, but Xiao Tianmo had already cut into the wolf's upper jaw in an extremely strange direction from the corner of its mouth, cutting off the small half of its head , just stopped again.

Even Jiang Yan himself was not sure what happened at this moment.He stood with a knife, the blood dripping from the wound on his left hand fell to his feet, and blood lines were drawn in the air.But the young man didn't seem to feel the pain, he just clenched his teeth and said in a deep voice in his throat:
"I must not die today!"

It was dark now.Just separated by a thin wooden door, several galloping wolves that had already entered the city were standing and barking on the street outside the incense shop, very close to him!
However, a loud sound suddenly sounded in the sky—it was the horn that the prairie people would blow when they assembled and charged, and it actually lured the giant beast in front of the incense shop to another place.

Jiang Yan felt strange, and immediately pushed the door out of the house, only to see a cavalry army with red armor and red flags attacking along the way, cutting down most of the wolves that broke into the city one after another.

Seeing this situation, the remaining giant wolves seemed to be greatly stimulated, roaring crazily, had to put down the prey that was in front of them, and regrouped to attack the cavalry.However, under the powerful impact of the cavalry, the wolves were defeated as soon as they confronted each other, and were cut into several pieces one after another, and died behind the horses.

"Is Yamato Han okay? The galloping wolf outside the city has retreated!"

Under the moon and stars, Meng Dun, who was covered in blood, rode forward, his face brimming with joy, but he brought Wu Chen in his hand, as if he had been looking for a young man in the city for a long time.

Jiang Yan took over the reins of his mount, got on his horse, and wiped away the remaining blood on Xiao Tianmo's crook of his arm, but he didn't believe what the other party said, so he flattered his horse and ran towards the city gate hundreds of steps away.But seeing blood flow into rivers and piles of corpses under the city, now there is really no sign of half a wolf.As far as the eye can see, they are all the Red Flame Army like wildfire, forming an array outside Suiyao City to hunt and kill Chi Lang, who is alone and lagging behind!
The black-eyed boy put his sword back into its sheath, and asked suspiciously:

"They are—the ones who stayed in Hulantai before——"

"Exactly!" Meng Dun became incoherent with excitement, "there are still tens of thousands of survivors scattered on the grassland. I also did not expect that apart from the old, weak, women and children, there are still more than ten thousand brave young adults The Red Flame Army stationed at Hulantai distributed armor to them. They just crossed the Jin River yesterday and happened to kill them from behind the wolves. These damned beasts had no time to react and were trampled to death by the galloping horses. Wounded a lot. Fleeing east now."

"How much is the loss now?"

The young Hehan was still a little worried, and his frowning brows did not relax.He raised his head to look at the city wall above him, but he saw blood splattered everywhere and corpses of humans and wolves piled together.

"The loss was heavy. Sa Xueqi died in battle with 37 people and injured 24 people. The [-] Red Flame Army who went south with us have now all died."

When asked about this, the smile on Monton's face suddenly froze, and the joy of winning was gradually replaced by a deep sense of sadness.

"How much equipment, water and food are left in the city?"

Jiang Yan lowered his eyes and asked again.This time, Meng Dun couldn't laugh anymore: "The iron arrows and fire oil in the city are all gone! There is still water and food, but there is not much left."

"So, if the wolves besiege the city again, there is absolutely no way we can hold it... So, immediately order the Red Flame Army to prepare overnight, and follow me south to Yujing after dawn!"

The young man immediately waved his hand and shouted.However, before his words fell, his wife's voice sounded behind him:

"No! The iron arrow is gone, you can pick it up from the corpses outside the city. But if you leave like this, what should the people in the city do?"

Chi Lang backed away, and Tuya finally had to come down from the arrow tower.

"Now there are more than [-] armored soldiers and cavalry troops inside and outside the city. In addition, there are [-] to [-] people in distress in the city and on the Yanluo Plain. If you continue to defend the city, all water and food will be exhausted in half a month. If you want to The only way to save people is to find a way to gather superior forces as soon as possible and kill all the wolves, there is no other way!"

Jiang Yan has already figured it out, and he doesn't allow the other party to argue.

"But the pack of wolves that besieged Suiyao this time was only three thousand. Maybe it wasn't the pack we encountered in Dankeli at all. The total number of galloping wolves haunting the entire Imperial Highland is unknown. If you leave the city rashly, if you are on the way Encountering the main force of the pack of wolves will put everyone in a desperate situation—”

Tuya expressed her worries and wanted to persuade her husband to change his mind.However, just halfway through the conversation, the other party in the flickering firelight frowned, with a solemn expression.

The half-blood princess suddenly remembered the scene not long ago when Jiang Yan led his army away from Yanluoyuan.She finally realized that she could never be better than that red-haired girl in the other party's heart.Even if there are thousands of reasons, it is absolutely impossible for him in front of him to listen.

Thinking of this, Tuya suddenly closed her red lips tightly, as if there had never been such a dispute between the two.Then, she forced a smile on her face, then turned to Monton beside her, and nodded:
"Let's do what Yamato Khan wants."

The next day, Haohao Tangtang of the Scarlet Flame Army who had left Suyao City headed south all the way to Yujing.A few days passed, and on the way out of the city, I didn't even meet half a galloping wolf.However, just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thick smoke rose from the city of Yujing slowly rising from the horizon ahead, and several big holes were broken in the thick city wall.There are even piles of corpses under the city, and it has already been breached!
It turned out that as early as ten days before the Yu capital was broken, Qi Ziyin received a report from the scouts, saying that there was a change in the Qingying mountain range, foxes and rabbits fled, deer and sheep came out of the mountain, and frightened birds appeared everywhere.Even the golden eagles in the mountains have left their nests that have been entrenched for many years.

At first, the young ruler thought that Luqiu Bo Rongzhong, who had retreated to Suoyang Pass, was about to make a move, so he sent many people to spy on him.Unexpectedly, the scouts sent out this time never returned.

In the second year of Zhaoxi, June [-]th.It was another night of heavy rain, but in the patter of rain, Leng Jiayun, who had already fallen asleep, vaguely heard someone knocking on her door.

The group of people received a message from Jiang Yan sent on the night before.Right now, they have been approved by Baijiang Xing, and they can temporarily live in the side hall of Yongyang Palace, and the remaining [-] military guards in the city are also at their disposal.

However, when the woman stood up and put on her clothes, she saw that the silver-haired kid who didn't like to talk on weekdays, but was fiddling with calculations all the time, was standing outside the door. She couldn't help but feel a little strange:
"Zeming visited late at night, is there something important?"

In the past two days, the little Patriarch of the Mo family followed Qi Ziyin everywhere in the city, making suggestions.Although he looks tired right now, he still bows deeply:
"I also ask Miss Leng to come forward and persuade Brother Qi for me."

"Tell me, what kind of trouble did you encounter? If Ziyin is wrong, I will help you explain it."

Leng Jiayun didn't know what the other party was talking about, she only thought that the two had a disagreement on the city defense, and she nodded immediately in agreement.However, what the silver-haired boy said next almost made her think she had heard it wrong:
"I also ask Miss Leng to go with me to persuade Brother Qi to disarm as soon as possible, and return to Longshoudu to board the boat and set sail."

The woman in purple couldn't help being surprised:
"Could it be that you want me to persuade Ziyin to return to Ye Kingdom? Why? Now we finally got the emperor's permission to enter the city to set up defenses. Besides, we haven't found Ning Yue's whereabouts yet, so how can Ziyin be willing to leave?"

"If we don't leave, I'm afraid we will be buried here with everyone in this city after tomorrow."

Hearing what the other party said, Leng Jiayun immediately changed his expression:

"Why? You and Ziyin have been worried since you received the letter from General Yan two days ago telling me to prepare for the defense of the city. But now there are civilians digging ditches outside the city, and military guards inside the city have set up barbed wire. With Juma, even the city wall has been painted with a thick layer of kerosene, can it be impossible to hold it?"

However, Mo Zeming refused to say anything more, just shook his head with a solemn expression:

"If Ms. Leng believes in me, then she will accompany me to see brother Qi. At this time, I have deduced and calculated several times on the astrolabe, but every time it is a bad omen for the moon halo seven times, Huibo rushing to Beiheng!"

"I believe you!"

Although the Dongli girl still had doubts in her heart, she nodded her head in agreement when she saw the silver-haired boy in front of her speak sincerely.

However, before the two entered the front yard of the side hall where Qi Ziyin lived, they smelled a strong smell of blood.After entering the gate, he saw a bloody scene in his eyes - he saw dozens of mutilated corpses stacked on top of an ox cart used by peasants to carry soil. The scouts that Wei Liang moved towards.

A piece of dark sackcloth was half-covered on the body. It seemed that after it was lifted earlier, no one dared to step forward to cover it again.As soon as the ox cart entered the palace, Qi Ziyin, who was standing in the courtyard, frowned tightly, and asked in a hoarse voice to Zhi Jinwu who escorted the cart into the palace:
"Where did these remnants come from?"

The captain on duty bowed his hands and bowed, his face was already pale:
"Governor Ye. After nightfall today, the Tuenmen guards patrolling the city saw something unusual in the ditch dug during the day on the city wall, so they went out of the city to investigate, and then recovered the bones."

"Did you ever see who abandoned it under the city?"

Qi Ziyin asked again, but there was an ominous premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, the captain on the opposite side just shook his head:

"I have never seen anyone walking around the city. The shovels and shovels used by the peasants during the day are also scattered on the spot. It is just that some people said that they saw black shadows moving a few miles away half an hour ago, but they are not sure what it is." Tree shadows or something else. Tuen Mun Wei claimed that in the area where the body was found, there were countless indistinct footprints left by living creatures on the soil."

Qi Ziyin thumped in his heart: "What kind of footprints?"

The captain cupped his hands, but his face turned even paler: "It's about the size of an adult's palm. Those footprints are obviously left by some wild beast. They seem to be wolves, but they are several times larger than ordinary mountain wolves."

"Could it be that Chi Lang has already driven to the city?!"

Hearing this, the boy in white immediately walked to the blood-stained ox cart that no one dared to approach, and stretched out his hand to completely remove the sackcloth covering the cart, only to see that the incisions on the stumps of the corpses did not The knife is as smooth as cutting.On the white bones exposed under the flesh, there are many obvious traces of being eaten by sharp teeth!

There was a "buzz" in his mind, the nightmare that he experienced in the human bone palace in Ye country back then, accompanied by the appearance of those giant wolves that he tried to forget, uncontrollably emerged again.

Seeing this situation, Leng Jiayun finally understood why Mo Zeming had to come to him for help before, and immediately stepped forward a few steps, opening his mouth to persuade him.However, before she could make a sound, she heard a strange horn sounding in the distance outside the city.

That voice was not the Horn Horn of the Shodi, nor was it the bugle of Yubei Saxueqi.And along with the sound of the horn, there were wolves howling one after another in the wilderness, like countless evil spirits crawling out of hell, entangled people to death with cold hands and feet, and everyone present Both felt breathless and had a cardiac arrest.
