Nongmen's elder sister-in-law is the richest in the world

Chapter 894 The troops are approaching the city

Because after hearing someone mention the name of the lord of Beijiang City, Shen Jianwan was shocked to realize that this person turned out to be a confidant of King Zhong in his previous life.

Sure enough, when she immediately went to inquire about this person, she found that he had gone back to his hometown for a funeral last night.

Although this person reported in advance that he was going to return to his hometown a few days ago, Shen Jianwan did not believe that there was nothing fishy about it.

Thinking that Beijiang City was Yamato's last barrier to the northeast, Shen Jianwan felt that this was not a good thing. After careful consideration, she decided not to go to the front line for the time being, but to stay here for closer observation.

Soon after, Shen Jianwan's suspicion came true, and she gave various hints to Wu Yong, the defender of Northern Xinjiang City, to be careful. Only a day later, more than 80,000 Liangli coalition troops arrived at the city.

But before these coalition forces arrived outside the city, they did not receive any news.

If it weren't for Shen Jianwan's various reminders, Wu Yong and the others wouldn't even be able to detect the incoming enemy troops in time.

As for where these enemy troops came from, and why they were able to bypass the main battlefield in front of them and reach Beijiang City, which is more than 800 miles away, the reason is that they passed through a secret passage between Liguo and Yamato. Come.

And because the previous city lord was loyal to the king and deliberately mobilized his troops, Wu Yong and the others failed to discover that the enemy had dug a secret passage under their noses and came to the city.

Seeing 80,000 enemy troops arriving outside the city, guard Wu Yong couldn't help but be frightened. He had previously ignored Shen Jianwan's reminder, thinking that the northern city was just a logistical presence for the battlefield ahead. As long as the Yamato army in front As long as their city was not breached, their city would be safe, so they did not take the other party's reminder to heart.

However, just over a day later, the enemy's coalition forces arrived at the city. He regretted not listening to Shen Jianwan's instructions to strengthen the city's defenses in time, and immediately asked people to spread the news.

The enemy's army numbered as many as 80,000, but now their city defenders were less than 3,000. The enemy's number was twenty-six times more than theirs.

According to the common sense that a city can be captured with a siege force that is fifteen times the number of defenders, Wu Yong felt that the North Xinjiang City was defeated this time.

He couldn't help but feel even more desperate when he thought that it was because of his negligence that he did not discover in time the collusion between the city lord and the enemy, which led to today's predicament.

According to this situation, once the Beijiang City was broken, he would not regret his own death, and the Yamato City behind them would be crazily ravaged by the enemy.

Wu Yong really couldn't imagine what kind of human tragedy it would be if these 50,000 enemy troops were put into Yamato's backyard.

What's even more frightening is that the enemy forces in the rear will attack the Yamato army led by Shen Zhan from both front and back. Even if their leader Shen Zhan has three heads and six arms, he will probably be defeated!

When their army in Yamato is defeated and the Liang Kingdom's coalition forces capture their northern territory of Dahe, Wu Yong will become their eternal sinner in Yamato.

The more he thought about Wu Yong, the more frightened he became. He, who had no heroic character, was soon frightened by his own imagination and turned pale.

Finally, he drew his sword and prepared to die to apologize, thinking that by doing so, he might be able to restore a bit of reputation for his family in the capital, so that they would not be so deeply implicated by him.

Seeing Wu Yong's sword swung down, he was about to feel cold soon. Suddenly there was a sound of breaking through the air, a ray of silver light flew from outside the door, and then Wu Yong's sword was knocked down.

After the accident happened, Wu Yong looked up and saw a beautiful and ethereal girl walking in from the door leading a group of generals.

The visitors were none other than Shen Jianwan and the city generals she led. The silver light that knocked down Wu Yong's sword just now was the silver needle she shot out of desperation. Seeing that Wu Yong was seeking death at this juncture, Yu Baicheng, who had the highest military rank in the room, ignored Shen Jianwan's amazing flying needle technique and scolded:

"General Wu, did the enemy commit suicide before they even attacked the city? Are you planning to die in peace and let the people behind you suffer?

Humph, now that the enemy is approaching the city, you don't think about how to deal with it, but you commit cowardly suicide here. Can you live up to the court's training and trust in you over the years? "

Wu Yong's face turned pale after being scolded, and he knelt down with a plop and cried: "General Yu is not cowardly, but I am doomed to death given the current situation.

Now that I have taken the blame and committed suicide, I can still implicate the family, young and old, otherwise..."

Yu Baicheng couldn't stand hearing this anymore, and turned to Shen Jianwan and said: "County Lord, this man has simply made your life-saving grace go to waste. Let's just let him die, and we will discuss the next steps ourselves." City defense matters."

Shen Jianwan knew that this was not the time to argue. The person who knew the situation in Beijiang City best was the Wu Yong in front of them. They had to calm down the other party and discuss the defense of the city with them, otherwise they would Defending the city, which is already extremely passive, will become even more difficult.

So she organized her words and said: "Both generals, please calm down. Now that the enemy is approaching the city, they may attack the city at any time. We still have to discuss the matter of defending the city as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be more people in Beijiang City this night." dangerous."

Sure enough, when Yu Baicheng and Wu Yong heard this, one stopped being furious and the other stopped crying.

But the next moment Wu Yong started crying even harder. His nose was dripping with tears and he desperately said to Shen Jianwan:

"County Lord, there are currently less than 3,000 defenders in our city, but the enemy has as many as 80,000 people. We cannot defend this northern city.

According to the enemy's number, our city may be broken within three days, and we simply cannot wait for the reinforcements from the front line to return.

Moreover, the enemy has reached this point. They must have been guarding the front line and returning to support our Northern Xinjiang City. If I guessed correctly, the Liang Kingdom and the four-nation coalition must have increased their frontline forces to hold back General Shen and the others. We He couldn't even wait for reinforcements to arrive.

It is estimated that General Shen and the others will not be able to come back for more than ten days and a half if they want to come back for reinforcements. General Shen and the others will never come back.

As for our request for help from the imperial court, our Yamato army is more than half a month away from the northern Xinjiang city, so no matter which way we go, we are dead. "

After saying that, he cried even harder. If Shen Jianwan and the others hadn't been there, maybe this guy would have raised his sword to commit suicide again.

When Shen Jianwan heard this, he almost laughed angrily. This man was so scared that he could still analyze the current situation. It seemed that he still had some brains left.

So she said: "We already know what you said, General Wu, but now we are here to discuss how to deal with the current predicament.

Ah Wan, just tell the truth. Among us, you are the one who knows the most about Beijiang City at present, so we need to discuss the matter of defending the city with you. "
