The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 678 Siege
“Many wells have been sealed before this, and if the blockade continues, ordinary people will not be able to drink water.

These people have no water to drink. How can you let them live?
As for water sources in other important places, you must ask the king for permission before they can be destroyed. "The officials from the Western Region insisted.

Mo Han really had no choice but to agree first.

Send someone immediately to ask for instructions from the King of the Western Regions.

This time Daxia sent troops to gradually occupy the entire Western Region.

If we can't make a decisive decision again, we will move all the people away.

I'm afraid they will all be captured by Daxia.

Mo Han thought about how Daxia treated the Turks, and he would not do the same to the Western Regions.

Without the people of the Western Regions, their situation would be worse than that of Daxia.

There was nowhere to even find something to eat.

How is this fight going?
The more Mo Han thought about it, the more chill he felt in his heart. Daxia was completely giving him no way to survive.

Mo Han thought that it was impossible, he could never lead his soldiers to death.

At worst, Daxia's army will be led to attack the army of the Western Regions first.

Then he took the opportunity to seize the entire Western Region.

As for the life and death of the Western Region, he didn't bother to care.

You have to make sure you have a way to survive first.

Thinking of this, he no longer continued to deal with the Xia army, and led his people to quickly retreat and move all the people away.

All small wells were sealed to prevent Xia Jun from drawing water.

Lin Hai and his people came to the city smoothly.

There are thousands of soldiers from the Western Regions in the city.

Seeing so many Xia troops coming to surround them, these soldiers were frightened.It was originally agreed that the Turkic rebels would deal with the heroes' army.But these rebels fled first, leaving them here.

The defenders were so angry that they couldn't help but cursed loudly and vowed to sue the King of the Western Regions and punish Mo Han severely.

But they had no chance. They were surrounded by Daxia's army and had to surrender or die in battle.

The generals of the Western Regions were unwilling to surrender like this and closed the city gates tightly in order to fight.

Or maybe he still had a trace of luck in his heart. As long as he could withstand the attack of the Daxia army, he might be able to send troops to support them soon.

Liu Ergou rode forward and shouted: "You thousands of troops should not resist and seek death. Open the city gates quickly and surrender. This will spare you a way to live."

“Bah, you Daxia people dare to attack our Western Region.

Our king will definitely send troops to wipe you out!

Don’t leave our Western Region as soon as possible, otherwise there will be only a dead end! "

After saying that, he asked his men to take bows and arrows to shoot Liu Ergou.

Liu Ergou knocked the arrow away with his knife and quickly retreated.

He returned to Lin Hai and said angrily: "These guys want to die and refuse to surrender."

Lin Hai nodded and said: "Since these people want to die, let's bring the cannon over and blast the city gate to me.

A few soldiers were left for questioning, and all the others were killed. "

Since Lin Hai wanted to incorporate the Western Region into his territory, he naturally had no intention of keeping these soldiers as prisoners.

The cost of transporting supplies over long distances is too high, and the more people you feed, the more food you consume.

It is not cost-effective to leave some people to guard them.

It's better to kill all these people to save trouble.

Liu Ergou agreed with excitement and immediately led his men to prepare for the attack.

A cannon was pulled forward and aimed at the city gate.

The city walls here are all made of sand and stones.

The hardness is far inferior to that of Daxia.

Moreover, their city walls are not very high, so it is very easy to break through.

The soldiers guarding the city saw Daxia pushing out a round and long object, and had no idea what kind of weapon it was.

Instead, he stretched his neck to look forward very curiously.I really don’t understand the purpose of Daxia putting this thing in front of the formation.

Little did they know that they were about to face a hellish and terrifying blow.

Liu Ergou had people place the shells and then lit the fuse himself.

Covering your ears with your hands.

Only a loud bang was heard.

A cannon hit the city gate and broke it open.

The people in the city felt a violent tremor, and the city gate was smashed like this.

The frightened general who defended the city quickly shouted at people to quickly close the city gate and seal it with stones.

Then another cannon was fired, and the shells hit the city wall.

The soldiers standing on top screamed repeatedly, and several were injured by rolling shells.

The artillery next to them also fired together, specifically attacking the people on the city wall.

Immediately, the soldiers in the Western Regions suffered heavy casualties.

Scared and hiding everywhere.

They had no idea what kind of weapons Daxia used and why they were so loud and lethal.

Many people have been completely frightened out of their wits.

Hiding behind the city wall and never daring to show up again.

Wang Dayong yelled: "Come with me!"

Taking advantage of the city gate being opened and the defenders on the wall unable to raise their heads, Wang Dayong led his men to charge.

Liu Ergou was anxious to death when he saw he was left behind: "Just wait for me, don't take away all the credit."

After speaking, he turned to his men and said: "Just hit the city wall a few more times and stop. I still have to lead people to kill them. If we go late, we won't even be able to drink the soup."

After saying that, he rode in with his men and followed him.

The defenders in the Western Region wanted to continue to resist, but just as they were about to fight back, they were greeted by a barrage of crossbow arrows.

Easily shot.

The iron-making technology in the Western Regions is very poor and there is also a shortage of iron ore.

They did not have armor made of iron, and crossbow arrows could easily penetrate people.

Facing Daxia's attack, he had no power to fight back at all.

After Xia Jun entered, it was like cutting straw, without even using grenades.

They can be killed easily with just a crossbow arrow.

Then there was a charge, using the force of the impact to slash through with a knife, even the person and the weapon could be cut into two sections.

You must know that Daxia's weapons are all made of fine iron and are extremely sharp.

Ordinary weapons can't hold it at all.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the defenders in the Western Region were completely defeated and almost completely destroyed.

The few remaining soldiers finally couldn't hold on any longer and were so frightened that they dropped their weapons and fell to the ground to surrender.

The Xia army did not attack again on those who surrendered.

Instead, he quickly rushed in to establish control of the entire situation.

It was found that all the people here had been moved away, and it was almost an empty city.

Finding the well as quickly as possible is the main purpose of attacking the city.

I found the well successfully and breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, the troops also brought some small animals to test the safety of drinking water.

Bring the water up for the animals to drink. After a period of time, the animals are still alive and it is confirmed that it is not poisonous before people can drink the water again.
After Lin Hai arrived at the city and everything was under control, he led the people into the city unhurriedly.

This kind of city is also very simple to build, and the houses are very low.

Because building materials here are so scarce, they can only be built with stones such as soil and cobblestones.
