Changsheng: My qualifications improve a little bit every day

Conscripted men.

Not to mention the civilians in the city, even the warriors of various families, as long as they have meritorious service, have actually been recruited to defend the city in recent days.

The bandits are powerful, and it is obviously impossible to resist them with only the county garrison and the military men of the government.

Because, according to the news Liu Zheng received, among the bandits besieging Xiahe County, there are more than ten Qi-sensing martial artists.

Not to mention the number of warriors who are forging bones and changing marrow.

With such strength, if the opponent really does not care about casualties, Xiahe County will never be able to defend.

As the county lord of Xiahe County, Liu Zheng did not dare to abandon the city and flee.

Now he can only bite the bullet and recruit all the forces that can be used in the city for defense.

So, although the opponent had a lot of opinions in the past, he wanted to find a chance to kill him.

But now seeing Fang Yue, he is also sincerely happy in his heart.

As for Fang Yue, he was helpless in his heart and had to pretend to be submissive.

After all, he was also afraid that Xiahe County would fall.

When the chaotic soldiers entered the city, he would not dare to guarantee the safety of his family.

So, at least the two people who hated each other and even wanted to kill each other could cooperate temporarily.

Fang Yue, because of his official position, although he was not an official of Xiahe County, was still entrusted with an important task by Liu Zheng and became the deputy general of the West Gate to assist in defending the city.

The chief officer guarding the West Gate was naturally Liu Zheng's trusted subordinate, a pot-bellied Yi Sui warrior.

After greeting Fang Yue, the chief officer guarding the West Gate, Lord Lin Sizheng, smiled and invited Fang Yue to enter a room on the top floor of the West Gate.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw a table of good wine and meat, and even two young women in gauze were serving wine and food.

Fang Yue took a glance and immediately understood.

I didn't expect that at this point, this general who was guarding the city would be so lazy and openly drink and have fun here.

He simply disregarded the law and didn't take the laws of the court seriously at all.

"Haha, Lord Fang, when you come to my brother's place, just treat it as coming to your own home, don't be restrained. Caixia, why don't you greet Lord Fang quickly." Lin Shoubei ordered with a smile.

"Yes, Lord Lin!" Caixia immediately greeted him with a smile and poured wine for Fang Yue.

"Lord Fang, please!"

Fang Yue took the wine glass and didn't put on airs. He picked it up and took a sip.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Since this was the other party's banquet, Fang Yue didn't have any politeness.

After all, he was just a deputy general who was temporarily brought in. He and Liu Zheng had some dirty things. He was not an official of Xiahe County. These things were not his turn to take care of.

Seeing Fang Yue's expression change, Lin Shoubei laughed: "Lord Fang thinks it's inappropriate for me to hold a banquet and drink here."

"How could that be? Lord Lin is overthinking." Fang Yue replied with a slight smile.

Inappropriate, definitely very inappropriate.

Wine and sex can cause trouble, let alone the current situation, where the bandits are at the gates of the city and may attack at any time.

If the enemy attacks the city while drunk, and the chief officer is not there, wouldn't the soldiers guarding the city be in chaos? If that really happens, can they still defend the city?

"Hey, Lord Fang doesn't know. Don't look at the large number of bandits below, but those mud legs can't climb the city wall. As long as we guard against those warriors, we will have nothing to worry about."

Shoubei Lin smiled at Fang Yue, and then continued: "And I am like this now, just pretending. I am just trying to lure the snake out of the hole and catch all the warriors attacking the city, then the west gate will be safe."

"So that's it, Lord Lin is smart!" Fang Yue said with a smile.

Then, he looked at the other party seriously, and didn't know this Shoubei Lin who looked more like a businessman than a military officer.

Did he really want to make a fake and lure the bandits into the trap. Or was he just talking.

Not long after, a banquet ended with you and me talking.

After the banquet, Fang Yue came to the top of the city and looked up at the bandits not far below the city.

Now they can no longer be called bandits, but bandit troops. There is a black mass in front of these bandit troops. They look ragged and have families with them. They are all villagers who have fled from all over the country. Now they are all dragged here and become vassals of the bandit troops to attack the city.

Such a situation makes many powerful arrows and crossbows on the city wall unusable.

Further back, there is a group of bandit troops, about a thousand of them, wearing leather armor and holding standard weapons.

These soldiers are obviously trained in a formal way, exuding murderous aura all over their bodies, and they are more elite than the county guards.

"These bandit troops also use flags to communicate with the bandit troops at other gates around. They are really not ordinary soldiers!"

Standing on the city, Fang Yue couldn't help sighing after seeing the soldiers between the two gates change their formations under the command of the flag soldiers.

It is obvious that this is an elite bandit army that has fought in wars and at least received relevant training. It is definitely not possible to transform from refugees in a short time.

Before Fang Yue could finish his sigh, the enemy army's formation change had already ended, and then they slowly advanced towards the west gate of the county.

Sure enough, not long after, the west gate of the county welcomed the first attempt of the enemy army to attack the city.

Ladders were pushed forward by the people who followed them like ants.

However, under the desperate defense of many soldiers, the people who were dragged along, after too many casualties, could not be suppressed and collapsed.

The scene was in chaos for a while.

The bandits could not organize an attack, so the first attempt of the bandits ended.

"Bandits are bandits after all, not worth mentioning, far inferior to the elite of the government army."

Seeing the great victory, Lin Shoubei was naturally overjoyed and said to the military officers on the top of the city.

Upon hearing this, the military officers under him also flattered Lin Shoubei and praised him for his wisdom and bravery, and Lin Shoubei accepted it without any modesty.

If you don't know, you really think it was a victory.

There has been no such chaotic war in the Wei Dynasty for hundreds of years.

I'm afraid that the guards usually rely on the elite combat power to suppress the bandits, and there has never been such a large-scale battle, so these military officers are inevitably proud and complacent.

Therefore, the real elite of the bandits did not take action, and those warriors and martial arts masters did not take action. Whether they can hold on is still unknown.

~~~~~

The next day.

The bandit army attacked the city again.

Just like yesterday, this time it was still a tentative attack on the city.

There were no warriors or martial artists to attack, and those elite bandits did not move forward, but continued to drive the people to attack the city.

After leaving a pile of corpses, they retreated again.

On the third day, the fourth day, and the fifth day.

For three consecutive days, it was the same.

On the sixth day, there were only a few people left who were driven away, and this time the regular troops of the bandits finally launched.

The attack started in an orderly manner. Various siege equipment was transported to the front of the city. Those armored soldiers were obviously old soldiers. After only a few charges, they almost broke through the top of the city.

The guards on the top of the city were actually difficult to resist.

It was still many warriors who took action to interrupt the opponent's attack.

Of course, it was so smooth, and Fang Yue occasionally shot cold arrows, shooting the bandit's small leaders and captains one by one, making the opponent's command chaotic.

However, after repelling the enemy's attack, Fang Yue stopped shooting arrows.

He couldn't show off too much. If the enemy army noticed him, they might notice him. Then the enemy warriors would attack him, which would be bad.

More importantly, if he showed off too much, he would be "assigned" more dangerous tasks, which would be a trap.

He had to be on guard against this.

After all, this Lin Shoubei was of the same rank as him, and he couldn't command him, but the county lord Liu Zheng could.

He had to be on guard against this.

"Let's wait and see. So far, the enemy's warriors and martial artists have not made a move, and I don't know what conspiracy they have!"

According to Liu Zheng, the enemy had more than an even number of martial artists.

And more bone forging, marrow changing, and warriors. If all of them were launched and dedicated to one door, they could really break through the city defense.

Either Liu Zheng's information was wrong, or the enemy army had some other conspiracy.

"So, I'll see how the situation develops. If it's really impossible, I have to find a way to take my parents and family away before breaking the city."

Fang Yue thought.

If the county cannot be defended, the worst that can happen is that you give up your fame and your current family business, take your family away, and go to other prefectures to avoid disaster.

It is impossible for this bandit army to have such strength in all prefectures of Wei.

~~~~~

On the eighth day, the bandit army continued to attack the city.

This time, they almost broke through the south gate, and the entire Xiahe County became precarious.

"Alas, I am still not decisive enough. If I had rushed back on the day I got the news, I am afraid that I would have taken my parents and family to the capital of Shanyang Prefecture."

Seeing this, Fang Yue couldn't help but sigh.

That night, Lin Shoubei came to find Fang Yue, and then took Fang Yue to the main hall of the county government.

Walking to the main hall of the county government, Wei Fangyue saw more than a dozen military officers, some of whom he had seen before and some of whom he hadn't seen before.

Fang Yue raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly felt that this scene was somewhat familiar.

He suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart and walked into the main hall. Not long after, several more military officers came, and the number of people in the main hall had reached more than 20 people.

In the main hall of the county government, the person who sat in the main seat was not the county lord Liu Zheng, but another old man in black with a thin face, sharp eyes, and wolf-like eyes.

At this moment, the lord of a county actually served tea and water to the old man, showing great respect.

From his words, Fang Yue learned that the old man was an inspector from the Sitianjian of the prefectural city, with a sixth-rank official position.

As for his cultivation, Fang Yue couldn't see through it, but from the feeling, the old man's strength was much stronger than the leader of the Blood Dragon Terrace who was killed some time ago.

I don't know why this person came to Xiahe County?

"This time, I asked you to come here because I have something important to tell you."

Seeing that almost everyone had come, Liu Zheng stood up and looked at the military officers, and then said.

"This time, King Wucheng rebelled, and the emperor was furious. He has sent the imperial court to take action, and King Wucheng will definitely not be able to escape."

The voice fell.

Many military officers were shocked. These people obviously didn't know about the imperial worship.

"You don't need to know more. You just need to know that every imperial worshiper is already a fairy, and their strength is far above the Xiantian Wuzong!"

Foundation forging warrior, Qi sensing warrior, Xiantian Wuzong.

This is all that ordinary warriors can know about martial arts practice. When you reach Xiantian Wuzong, you already have the power to stabilize the country.

You can fight against thousands of troops alone, and you can travel all over the world.

There are also rumors that the Xiantian Wuzong lives for 500 years, but no one knows whether it is true or not.

Hearing this suddenly, all the military officers in the main hall couldn't help but take a breath.

"I have called you here today because I have something to do for you."

As soon as the words fell, the military attaché sitting at the front of the room answered: "Please give me your instructions, my subordinates will definitely be pissed off."

Seeing this scene, Liu Zheng couldn't help stroking his beard and said: "I will select ten people from among you to obey the orders of Inspector Fang and cooperate with Inspector Fang."

Inspector Fang? !

Cooperate with the other party's actions?

Hearing this, Fang Yue couldn't help but frown, always having a bad feeling.

This person has such a level of cultivation and comes here secretly, so the task he has to perform is not simple.

If so, this mission must be very dangerous.

Could he be going out of the city to assassinate the rebel leader?

Moreover, Liu Zheng was afraid that he would use this opportunity to stumble him.

Thinking about this, Fang Yue couldn't calm down in his heart.

"Haha, you don't need to be so nervous. This mission is not difficult. We will not ask you to go out of the city to assassinate the leader of the bandit army. It is just to arrange some... well, ingenuity in the city."

Seemingly sensing the nervousness and timidity of those present, Liu Zheng immediately added.

Sure enough, after hearing these words, the nervous military attachés around them felt a lot more relaxed.

Since we are not leaving the city, there is no risk in coming here.

In addition, when performing this task, there is no need to guard the city, so it is much safer. For a while, many military attachés seemed a little eager to give it a try.

However, it is obvious that who to use and whom to send cannot just volunteer.

But let the new Supervisor Fang come and choose personally.

Surprisingly, but not at all surprised, Fang Yue was finally selected.

When he heard that he was selected, Fang Yue immediately looked at Liu Zheng, trying to tell something from his face.

Sure enough, Liu Zheng also looked over at this moment.

Fang Yue saw a hidden light in the other party's eyes.

Immediately, I was sure that it was indeed related to this person.

After selecting the manpower, the other military attachés went back to continue the defense.

Fang Yue and others were led to a temple in the west of the county by the Shanyang Prefecture Si Tianjian Supervisor, who also had the same surname as Fang.

It was obvious that this place seemed to have been cleared. It was guarded by elite soldiers under the night, but there was no one inside the temple.

This temple is old, but its incense seems to be very ordinary.

At least if the incense is good, Fang Yue will not have heard of this temple.

However, at this time, Fang Yue, who was following the team, became curious about how Inspector Fang brought them to the temple.

At this time, Xiahe County was besieged by rebels.

And what are they going to do when they come here?
