When the prince of no descendants found out that he had a baby, he went crazy

Chapter 293 291 A hodgepodge of people gathered at the city gate

God is fair. After the natural disasters in Daxuan a few years ago, other surrounding areas were also affected by the disasters one after another.

Especially for the nomadic people in the north, who have little water resources, their lives are very difficult when they encounter drought.

In the past, they would send troops on a small scale to rob the people on the border of their food before winter came. However, with natural disasters like this, it was obvious that the small amount of food could no longer meet their needs.

When Gu Hua brought An An, Du Tianlin and his party to the top of the Saibei city tower, they looked at the densely packed northern barbarians climbing up the city wall using ladders, and the northern barbarian army who were willing to brave the drizzle to take advantage of the situation and rob.

It can only be said that when Xue Changhui was alive, he was completely controlled by his savagery, and the news in the army was easily known to the enemy.

You have food, so just eat it quietly and make it known to everyone. Now, when people find out that the Northern Barbarians have been let into the city, how can they not want to bring their troops to share a piece of the pie?

The leader of the Northern Barbarians saw the lanterns under the awning on the city wall, illuminating a group of people approaching, and waved his hand and beat the drum, ordering them to stop the siege.

"Listen, people above us. If you hand over the food, we will give up the siege..."

Listening to the words shouted by the exiled northern barbarians, Gu Hua always felt both amused and annoyed.

The Beiman people are a nomadic people known for their brutality. Gu Hua had done fur business there when he was doing business. If they had not been forced into a desperate situation by the disaster, they probably would not have launched a large-scale war to attack the city and demand food.

Gu Hua stood on the tower and turned around to look inside the city. The 80,000 Northern Rong soldiers were no longer as arrogant as when they first robbed the people, because they were already trapped in the heavy siege of the Northern Frontier Army and could not make any waves. It was only a matter of time before they were wiped out.

The most critical thing now is how to deal with those northern barbarians outside the city who want to take advantage of the situation to rob and just want to ask for food and return home.

Because the northern barbarians have a clear understanding of themselves, based on the number of people and strength of their tribe, even if they temporarily occupy one or two cities, it is difficult for them to maintain long-term possession.

They had just found out that the Beirong people would ask for a batch of food from Saibei City, so they, who were also short of food for the winter, wanted to take this opportunity to get a piece of the pie.

Before Gu Hua could figure out how to deal with the northern barbarians and persuade them to go back, he found a firework signal exploded in the sky in the city. Soon after, everyone saw a northern barbarian army rushing towards this side from the distant hillside.

"It seems that those people are not stupid," Du Tianlin said sarcastically as he stood beside An An, "They know that if they fail to ask Xue Changhui for food when they go into the city, the two sides may fall out.

He also knew to leave an army outside the city. Even if those troops were trapped in the city, they could be attacked from both inside and outside, as Xue Changhui still had leverage over them in the hands of the Beirong people.

Even if the two sides fail to reach an agreement, under such circumstances, the Northern Rong troops can be easily released from the city."

Gu Hua had already guessed that the Northern Barbarians had left support troops outside the city, but she was surprised that the Northern Barbarians would get involved.

The Northern Barbarians and Northern Rong were both nomadic peoples in the north.

The grassland and pastoral territory occupied by the Northern Rong was much larger than that of the Northern Man. The Northern Rong were cruel and overbearing, and there were often frictions where the two tribes bordered each other.

When the northern barbarians saw the Northern Rong army coming in a mighty force, they didn't know whether to withdraw from the city wall or continue climbing up to attack the city, so they threatened the commander of the northern border to give them some food.

The Beirong people obviously discovered them when they came here. At this time, the sky was already white, and the Beirong leader just glanced coldly at the Beirong people.

He ignored them and cast a gloomy look at Gu Hua and his group on the city wall. When the soldiers were at the gate of the city, they began to shout: "Release our people and take away all the food in the Saibei Army, otherwise don't blame us for attacking and brutally massacring the city."

The Saibei soldiers on the city wall felt a little scared when they saw the two densely packed troops attacking the city. After all, the garrison general Xue Changhui had been killed and the army was in chaos now. Could they still defend the Saibei Pass under such circumstances?

Everyone now looked at Gu Hua and his mother in panic, as if the Yama God of War token they were holding had become the backbone of these soldiers.

Now the enemy is coming in full force and at the gates of the city. We have no choice but to obey their orders.

Gu Hua sneered, feeling that this rainy night had turned into a chaotic hodgepodge.

The three major nomadic tribes along the northern border established small tribal states, and the only one that hadn't come out was the Northern Desert to cause trouble.

After hearing Han Jinyan's description of the scarred man who saved him, Gu Hua more or less knew the man's identity and felt that he would soon meet his old friend.

The general outside Beirong City saw that Gu Hua and his men ignored him like shit, and he was so angry that his beard flew all over his face and he screamed, "Squeeze the northern barbarians away, seize their ladders and rush into the city, I will kill everyone in Saibei City."

Gu Hua looked at General Beirong's arrogant words with contempt and ignored him, because she knew that with her around, it would be hard to tell who would slaughter whom.

By this time, the sky was already slightly bright, but because of the drizzle, the sky was still foggy.

Gu Hua said to the Northern Barbarians calmly, "If you don't want to die with these Northern Barbarians, quickly take the broken siege ladders and leave. Otherwise, if you are accidentally injured, don't blame others for not reminding you."

The northern barbarians have not yet decided whether to withdraw from this chaotic situation.

Then they heard a loud shout from the Beirong general. He was completely enraged by Gu Hua's contemptuous tone, as if they, the Beirong people, were like ants in her eyes. How could they tolerate this?

"Hey!" The Northern Rong general glared with his eyes as angry as an ox, and roared with fire in his eyes: "Stinky woman, you are so arrogant, look, this general will capture you and make you the lowest slave of our Northern Rong."

Gu Hua's eyes flashed coldly, and he murmured, "It seems that the grass on the graves of those who verbally insulted and attacked me has grown taller."

"Young Master An An." Du Tianlin's exclamation made Gu Hua look sideways.

"Mother, he insulted your son, go kill him."

"An An!" Gu Hua saw his son, who was always calm and intelligent, sliding down the ladder that the northern barbarians had set up on the city wall at an extremely fast speed, looking as if he wanted to fight to the death.

Gu Hua held his forehead with his hand: "..." In addition to Kang Kang and Huan Huan, there is another violent element in the family.

An An's appearance at this moment reminded Gu Hua of Xiao Junlin and Kang Kang, the father and son who had a somewhat erratic and impatient personality. In the past, when they heard someone scolding her for being a woman with the heart of rebellion and domination, they would stand up and violently defend themselves.

Seeing An An descending the ladder, Du Tianlin hurriedly stepped on the northern barbarian's shoulder on the ladder as a foothold, and flew down to the city with fluttering sleeves.

The dozen or so people who were protecting An An also followed the northern barbarians and climbed down the ladders set up outside the city wall...
