Chapter 227
Although Xuyu City is a military stronghold, it never expected that the barbarians would attack in large numbers. Even if they had discovered something wrong before, they had never expected it to happen so quickly. After all, it was not yet spring, and it was not the best time for the barbarians to plunder.
Therefore, although Xuyu City had a hundred thousand troops stationed, it was not prepared at all, and was even more panicked when it was attacked.
Li Feng, the main general guarding the city, was originally happy in his mansion, but he did not expect to receive the news of the barbarian attack suddenly.
"Waste, a bunch of waste."
"Immediately order the army to the city wall and be sure to stop the barbarian attack."
Li Feng was very angry. The so-called elite intelligence personnel could not even find out this situation, which made him unprepared.
If Xuyu City was lost, Liang Hong would never let him go.
The top priority was to quickly organize resistance and find out the situation of the barbarian army.
Li Feng did not dare to neglect it and hurried to the city wall with his personal soldiers.
On the road, there were panicking civilians everywhere, and troops rushing to support.
Xuyu City was in chaos, which was inevitable.
Just as they were about to reach the city wall, several fast horses suddenly came galloping in front of them, not caring about the lives of the civilians.
Li Feng was about to get angry, but he saw that the person coming was the general defending the city, and suddenly he felt ominous.
"General, it's not good. The barbarians have sent out hundreds of thousands of troops. Our army is not well prepared and has been broken through the city gate by the barbarians. Now the barbarians have entered the city. Please make plans early."
Sure enough, it's the worst news.
"Assholes, what did you do?"
Li Feng was extremely angry. Even if he was caught off guard, it shouldn't be so fast.
How could he know that Yuwen Chengdu organized a group of military masters and personally led the raid, with the goal being the gate of Xuyu City.
One side was unprepared, and the other side had many masters. The superiority was immediately determined, and the result was naturally determined long ago.
"Quick, order the army to meet them immediately, and drive them out while the barbarians are under-strength in entering the city."
At this moment, Li Feng had no other choice but to make such arrangements, hoping that it was still in time.
"General, no."
"The barbarians are coming aggressively, and there are experts accompanying them. We should evacuate immediately and make plans later."
Having experienced the battle just now and finally escaped with his life, the general did not want to go back and fight again.
"Asshole, you have shaken the morale of the army and are not good at defending the city, you should be killed."
Li Feng shouted angrily, and then slashed forward with a knife. This unlucky guy finally escaped Yuwen Chengdu's attack, but died in the hands of his boss.
This is not Li Feng's fault. At this moment, Li Feng has no way to retreat. No one knows the importance of Xuyu City better than him. If he escapes without a fight, it would be strange if he can have a good end.
"Order the army to move forward, quickly."
Li Feng's decisive killing just now also shocked everyone, and no one dared to question Li Feng's order anymore.
Li Feng knew that if the army worked together, there might be a chance. After all, the barbarians were all cavalry. Once they entered the city, their fighting power would be greatly weakened. Moreover, there was only one city gate, and the barbarians' troops entering were limited.
As long as those entering the city were killed and the city gate was closed, there might be a chance to defend Xuyu City.
Li Feng personally led the army to counterattack, and soon found the barbarians.
The two sides fought directly when they met, without any nonsense.
Li Feng was not weak, and had reached the level of Grandmaster. He was also a well-known general in Liang State. The generals of the barbarians were basically not his opponents. Several people worked together to barely stop Li Feng.
Just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, a figure appeared and attracted Li Feng's attention.
Yuwen Chengdu was not going to do it himself, as this might expose his identity, but Li Feng was indeed strong, and the barbarians under his command could not be taken down for a while.
In order to avoid accidents, Yuwen Chengdu didn't care so much. After all, if it wasn't his own experience, who would believe that these barbarians actually obeyed orders.
"Back off."
Yuwen Chengdu rode forward and shouted at the barbarian generals.
"You are not a barbarian?"
The moment he saw Yuwen Chengdu, Li Feng found something wrong. No matter his appearance or dress, the person in front of him didn't look like a barbarian.
This discovery almost overturned Li Feng's cognition. The barbaric barbarians were actually subdued by others. Who could this person be?
This is what Li Feng cares about most at the moment.
For a moment, Li Feng seemed to feel that he had discovered a secret that could affect the entire Liang State. Being on the border, no one knew the barbarians better than him. Once this group of barbaric and warlike guys were recaptured by someone with a heart, it would be a disaster for Liang State.
"What's the point of knowing so much when death is imminent."
Yuwen Chengdu didn't want to say more, and didn't want to waste time, so he took action directly.
The two fought quickly. It seemed that Li Feng temporarily blocked it, but it was a message.Thoughts and courage supported him.
After three moves, Li Feng was knocked off his horse and spit out blood.
When Yuwen Chengdu took action, the other barbarians were not idle. They were quickly strangling the Liang army. After Long Tian's training, the combat effectiveness of these barbarians has been greatly improved, and they even know how to fight in groups.
Soon, the Liang army collapsed, some died, some fled, and even after the news of the defeat spread, the soldiers who were originally supporting began to turn around and flee from the other direction of Xuyu City.
The entire Xuyu City, except for the direction occupied by the barbarian cavalry, the other directions were full of people, civilians, nobles, soldiers, all fleeing in panic.
"Who are you?"
Li Feng stared at Yuwen Chengdu, trying to associate his origins, and even pleading in his eyes, just wanting to die clearly.
"You are persistent, but what's the point?"
After the words fell, Li Feng's body was pierced, and he didn't figure out who the enemy in front of him was until he died.
"You..."
Li Feng died with regret.
"Order the army to enter the city, do not harass the people, and kill all those who resist."
Yuwen Chengdu gave the order and the army entered the city.
The nature of the barbarians still needs to be controlled, otherwise tragedies will continue to happen.
Long Tian attacked the Southern Courtyard of Liang State this time, but he was prepared to stay. Since he didn't want to leave, he naturally couldn't kill people wantonly, which was not good for the later rule.
Unless they were resisters who didn't know how to live or die, these people would be troublesome in the later period if they were not eliminated.
Li Feng, the general of Liang State, died just like that, and even Yuwen Chengdu didn't arrange for someone to collect the body, which was sad.
But this is war, it has nothing to do with right or wrong, only each other's position and interests.
The news that Xuyu City fell and the 600,000 barbarian troops raided and entered the Southern Courtyard of Liang State spread quickly.
The people of the entire Southern Courtyard were alarmed, even Ji Shuai and Jiao Zi knew about it, and hurried to Liang Hong to discuss.
After all, they knew that the barbarians not only had 600,000 troops attacking Liang, but also had 700,000 troops following them, and were already approaching the border of Liang.
This was a force that could not be ignored, and even inappropriate response could lead to a catastrophic disaster.
