Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Beads of sweat began to appear on Helan Lu's head. He stared at the black robe without moving, and didn't even go to watch the war under the city. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "So, Liu Yu is ready. After the city is broken, all of our surviving Huren will be scattered and organized, or even confiscated as slaves?"

Hei Pao sneered: "If it weren't for this, how could Murong Lan's relationship with him for many years leave him and stand on our side? Even our last request is that he let go of the siege and let him go. We took a boat back to our home in Liaodong, and we didn't agree. Master Helan, do you think that with Liu Yu's purpose, if he really conquered the city, he would only deal with our Murong department and let your Helan department go?"

Helan Lu's mouth opened slightly, and after all he sighed: "This time, I don't think you have any reason to lie to me. Murong Lan did not leave the city with Liu Yu. This is the best proof. Moreover, the battle was successful. In this way, even if Liu Yu agreed, the Jin army would not let us go. Apart from a desperate battle, I had no other choice. This is what I told you just now, so you don’t need to test me all the time. ."

"It's like my good brother Helan Harim, who offended you for speaking up for state affairs, and was almost killed in jail. But this time, after he was released, he did not complain. He did his duty, even for the country. He died, because he was a real soldier. No matter what, Dayan took us in when our Helan clan was in trouble. Then we had to repay this favor. Moreover, only by defending the city can we have a way to survive. Truth, I don’t need you to teach us."

Heipao smiled slightly: "But you still have room, just like Helan Harim. He is just defending the city. He didn't think about how to use the most ruthless means to cause the greatest casualties to the Jin army. I know, this is all Because you have given secret orders, including you now, you are just guarding the city as usual, and the real ruthless trick is useless."

Helan Lu's mouth twitched softly: "What do you mean by that? We have done everything we can, and we have used all the methods we can use. You said that we didn't use ruthless tricks, which is worthy of our congratulations. Is Lan the soldier who died in battle? Is he worthy of Harim?"

A cold light flashed in Heipao’s eyes: “Because you still want to leave yourself behind, that kind of brutal tactics and mass destruction weapons have never been useful. What you want to do is to fight against the Jin army. Leave room, they don’t use their force to attack the city, and you don’t use these big killers, right?"

Helan Lu's eyes sparkled, and there was no answer.

The black robe said coldly: "Just like Helan Harim, he is in the East City. I gave him sulfur, saltpeter, and poisonous smoke. I even gave him ten buckets of black demon water to make him necessary. It was time to slaughter the siege troops of the Jin army on a large scale. As a result, he didn’t use any of these. He just relied on the wooden box to carry troops to the city. In the end, the Jin army used lime and black demon water to break You said, did he give you the eldest brother who wanted to fall apart to die?!"

Helan Lu gritted his teeth: "What does it have to do with me? Harim has always been an upright soldier. He doesn't bother to use your damage tricks that hurt the enemy a thousand and hurt 800. You have used the black demon water in Linqu. , Did you win? What's more, when I defended the city this time, I used the black demon water when the city gate broke through. Why didn't I try my best?"

The black robe hooked the corner of his mouth: "It's not enough, at least, have you used such things as golden soup and iron juice? Now the Jin army obviously wants to achieve a breakthrough from the city gate, and the direction of their attack is not the city. The door, but here, the city wall!"

Helanlu's eyes narrowed slightly: "My sentry in the wall of the wall here has been staring. The wall of this southern city is so high, more than three feet tall, and it is made of solid stones. The catapult and the ballista cannot be penetrated. If they are approached by a ladder or a siege tower, we can easily pass the wooden box to defend the city. Here, I sit in the town, and it is even more solid. What's so good? worried!"

Heipao sighed softly: "It seems that fortunately I came here, Helan Lu, probably your mind is all on how to get in touch with Liu Yu, and negotiate the conditions for opening the city to release the water, it is actually right. Turn a blind eye to the situation on the battlefield and the immediate danger?"

Helanlu's face changed, and he said solemnly: "Nonsense, I have been defending with all my strength here, how can I relax? After you look at the gates, I have arranged five hundred soldiers and three hundred crossbowmen. There are also four eight-bow **** crossbows, which are used to deal with the Jin army who want to break in~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Even, the remaining five barrels of black demon water, I am also ready, ready to use, As soon as the Jin army attacked the city gate, I would turn him into a sea of ​​flames and let them have no bones!"

Hei Pao shook his head: "You know that you are staring at the city gate, and you don't want to think that the Jin army is a fool. The last time you broke the door, it was burned by the black fire. Will you come to die again this time? Don't watch them carry sandbags and sacs. So diligent, but it was just to conceal their true intentions, that is, assault on the city!"

Helan Lu's eyes narrowed slightly. He looked outside the city, swept a piece left and right, and sneered: "You have zoomed in here again. The most recent siege ladders are all three hundred steps away. What walls are you attacking? Ah, is it possible that their Jin army can still fly up?"

Heipao sighed softly: "It's no wonder that in order to protect yourself, you guys just shrunk in this safe position, regardless of the situation under the city wall. Who told you that the Jin army is going to attack the city wall. Must rely on the ladder and the siege tower?"

Helan Lu’s face changed, he stood up, walked about ten steps to the right, and said to a pipe that went straight to the ground below the city’s head: "Erdanzi, show me what the Jin army under the city wall is doing, isn’t it? Are you digging tunnels or destroying city walls?"

After a while, a voice came from the pipe: "My lord, the auxiliary soldiers and civilian men of the Jin army are throwing the soil sacs and sandbags blocking the city gate under the roots of the city wall. They are already over a foot high. I haven't seen anything else. arrive."

Helan Lu’s head was sweaty, and he murmured: “Damn, how come I didn’t expect this. The sandbags blocking the door can be piled under the city to increase the height. In this way, wouldn’t the Jin army stand directly on it with ropes or even The human ladder has ascended the city."

A hint of killing intent flashed in Heipao's eyes: "Master Helan, now that your iron juice and golden soup should be on the court, too."
