Gou is a soldier on the border

Chapter 53
The idea of ​​the old Leitou ended up killing three more northern barbarians.

After Wang Luo and Wang Wei joined the battle, their team ended the short encounter unscathed.

After a short but intense fight, everyone sat on the ground panting, and the new force who replaced them took over with sufficient crossbow boxes.

"That's great, Second Young Master, as long as we guard this place, will we no longer have to worry about the northern barbarians coming to blow the autumn wind in winter?" Old Leitou took out the old water bag on his body, and asked while twisting the lid.

Wang Wei chuckled and threw his cowhide bag over.

Old Leitou caught it subconsciously, and looked at the exquisite "water bag" in his hand.

"Second Young Master? This?"

"Drink it and it's over." Wang Wei said carelessly.

Old Leitou didn't hesitate any longer, and as soon as he unscrewed the lid, a strong aroma of wine wafted out.

His eyes lit up, he raised his head and took a hard gulp.

"Good wine, second son, my old Leitou has lived for more than 30 years, and I have never had such a good wine."

"Let's keep it if it's delicious, and give some to the brothers." Wang Wei didn't feel sorry for the water bag that had been with him for several years. In his opinion, no matter how good the water bag was, it was not as good as the Wang family in front of him. The soldiers who worked for Daliang are important.

The soldiers next to them are already hungry. On this battlefield full of gunpowder smoke and blood, only spirits are the ultimate enjoyment.

Old Leitou passed the wine bag, and everyone took a sip of wine in the same gesture.

"Okay, you guys go back to have a rest and eat, and you have to come back later." Wang Wei patted Lao Leitou on the shoulder and said to him.

"Come on! Second Young Master, then we'll go back first, you two have to be careful." Old Leitou smiled and led his men towards the south gate.

Wang Luo and Wang Wei continued to walk forward. After the battle just now, the Beibei Army pushed the line of defense a little further north.

The only good news is that most of the defense equipment at Qilian Mountain Pass was deployed at the south gate, and most of them were preserved after Wang Yu took the south gate in a surprise attack.

However, the attacking Lie Nation army does not have enough siege equipment to use.

Before they knew it, the two of them had already arrived near the city lord's mansion. The city lord's mansion had long been in ruins, and the raging fire was still burning on the ruins.

Wang Luo noticed that because of the terrain in the mountain pass, the mountain walls on both sides had been roasted crispy, and gravel fell into the flames from time to time.

"Second brother, why is there such a big fire in the city." Wang Luo asked curiously.

Wang Wei was also puzzled.

"This city is built on Qilian Mountain. Most of the buildings are made of rocks, but the strange thing is that only the City Lord's Mansion is made of wood."

Wang Wei pointed to the burning city lord's mansion in front, and then pointed to the place on the distant mountain wall where the burning was more vigorous than the city lord's mansion.

"Moreover, the storage of luggage and other materials in the city is extremely unreasonable. According to our family's art of war, this storage method is extremely dangerous. Once it catches fire, the gods cannot save it."

Wang Luo's words obviously opened up Wang Wei's chatterbox, and he continued: "Besides, the defenders in the city are obviously insufficient. I remember that when we attacked Qilian Mountain Pass last time, there were five thousand standing defenders in the city, but this time , it would be nice to have 2000 people in the city.”

While Wang Luo and Wang Wei were chatting on the battlefield, Lie Guda once again kicked Ximen Wei, who was kneeling on the ground, in the face in frustration.

"Dog, tell me honestly, how many are the 5000 designated defenders at Qilian Mountain Pass?" He growled at Ximen Wei, his distorted face was completely different from his usual image.

Ximen was not kicked to the ground, rolled back covering his face and continued to kneel, muttering and daring not to speak.

"Say it! Or I'll kill you right now." Lieguda continued to press with bloodshot eyes.

"800 people." Ximen Wei replied in a faint voice.

"800 people? There are only 1000 standing scouts sent by the Khan Court. With such a big Qilian Mountain Pass, you just leave 800 people to guard the city? Is this how you eat empty wages?" Lie Gu was puzzled. Da took out his saber from the waist of a soldier beside him, and was about to slash at Ximen Wei's body.

Fortunately, the people around him worked together to save Ximen from Lieguda's knife.

"Master, even if Ximen is not guilty, the court should convict him. It's inappropriate for you to kill him rashly, and it's easy to fall into the trap." One of Lieguda's entourage whispered in Lieguda's ear.

Only then did Liguda throw down his saber, and sat down angrily on his seat.

He rolled his eyes and suddenly remembered something.

"I heard that when the north gate of Qilian Mountain Pass was broken, that Changshan Zhao Zilong also came?"

"Yes, that Zhao Zilong stopped the blood guards one by one, so he didn't let the blood guards enter the city behind the army that rejected the North."

"Ao Da trained a group of what kind of trash! Why does the Beibei Army have a strong general like Zhao Zilong, and my men are all a bunch of drunks and rice bags?" Lie Guda became angry when he mentioned this.

Immediately afterwards, he said to the entourage who persuaded him just now: "Go, you take my warrant and go back to Nanhan City."

After speaking, he swiped a pen and wrote a note, stamped with his own seal.

When I took it over and took a look, I was shocked.

"Master, this... is against the rules, isn't it?"

"Why is it against the rules? That white horse knight must be a master above the Dao rank. Let's invite Zhu Gongfeng and Gou Gongfeng to cooperate with those dereliction of duty blood guards to charge in a wave. There is still hope to take the city back. If we follow the current Situation, if I wipe out all my troops, I won’t be able to take back this damn mountain pass!”

The personal attendant stopped talking and hurried down the city wall with a warrant.

Lie Guda looked at Ximen Wei who was hiding in the corner and dared not speak, and felt a headache.

"Take this bastard back to Shengjing and let his father make the decision himself!"

Ximen didn't want to struggle, but was gagged, bound hands and feet and pushed down the city wall.

Seeing that Ximen was not pulled away, Lie Guda was relieved. Although this guy caused a catastrophe, his father was the Marshal of the Lie Kingdom after all, so he couldn't move easily. It’s better to send away the sweet potatoes for a while.

Immediately afterwards, Reguda remembered another thing.

"I heard that the southerners have invested in several new weapons?"

The guards next to him brought up a Liannu that was badly damaged and barely visible in its original shape, and Lieguda held it in his hand and looked at it.

"Find a few Nanren artisans to see if they can be restored."

Immediately afterwards, he walked to the city wall and looked at the city.

The fire that filled the sky was reflected in his eyes, and at the same time his face was reflected golden.

Suddenly, Liguda raised his hand, touched his face, and looked at it before his eyes.

There is a drop of water on the finger.

His face changed drastically, and he suddenly looked up at the sky.

At the same time, everyone on the battlefield, except for the soldiers who were fighting, all set their eyes on the sky.
