Hu Diao's cry for help was immediately transmitted to the two cities of Yangchuan and Bailin. The commanders of the two cities were Li Rong and Lu Hongming.

Li Rong's identity was not simple, he was the cousin of the, but he was still a little proficient in military affairs. He was well versed in military affairs and was good at leading troops into battle.

On the other hand, Lu Hongming came from a civil service background. However, his research and understanding of military strategies were even more thorough than Li Rong's. Furthermore, with his agility and intelligence, he could speak of military strategies like a river, even old generals could not compare to him.

In Shao Fang's eyes, Li Rong and Lu Hongming were generals with outstanding Mo Country. With the two of them guarding the borders, he felt extremely at ease.

Upon receiving Hu Diao's urgent message, Li Rong and Lu Hongming were both shocked, while the two of them were also slightly surprised by the large scale invasion of Feng Army. However, the two of them had surprisingly made the same choice. Neither of them immediately sent troops to save Xiashui Town, but first, they sat and waited.

From Lu Hongming's point of view, the invasion of Feng Army was just a bluff. Its goal was to lure back the large army that had attacked their side into the Yu Country. He did not believe that the Feng Army would dare to attack the Xiashui Town.

Li Rong had thought that since the Feng Army dared to go so far to acquire the Xiashui Town, it must have been prepared long ago. If their side was to rush over to save him, it was very likely that they would fall into the scheme of the Feng Army.

He had even specially sent out a large number of spies to observe the movement of the Feng Army, and had even made people scout the area between the Yangchuan and them, to see if there were any ambush forces from the Feng Country.

Li Rong was truly worthy of being an outstanding general. The distance from the Yangchuan to the Xiashui Town was only one hundred fifty kilometers, but the road ahead was not easy. With many hills and coasts, it was very easy to set up an ambush.

If he had met an ordinary opponent, maybe he really would have found out the flaw, but this time, he had met Pingyuan Army, and the main target of the ambush was still the experienced Wu Guang. Wu Guang had set up an ambush at the middle part between Yangchuan and water. The ambush troops were far away from the official road, and they had even spread out, breaking it down into zero pieces. Furthermore, Wu Guang had even sent out a small group of Feng Army as a sentry.

Some of the spies that Li Rong had sent out had scouted the area that Wu Guang had set up. In the end, they had either failed to discover anything, or they had mysteriously evaporated into thin air. In the end, there was still no sign of the ambushed soldiers.

However, the disappearance of the large number of spies had still alerted Li Rong, which made him even more determined that he could not rashly send troops.

The Pingyuan Army Ninth and Tenth Legion, which were led by Xiao Muqing, only had twenty thousand soldiers in each division. Including the logistics unit of the army, they were at most thirty thousand people, but when they advanced towards the Xiashui Town, the line was extremely long, and every one of them were not idle either. Basically, each of them had a Flag, and a small flag on their back. If one were to observe from afar, they would see that the entire Pingyuan Army's embroidered band was fluttering in the wind. The army's flags were like a forest, majestically stretching out for more than ten miles in a row.

Putting aside a hundred thousand, even a hundred and fifty thousand or two hundred thousand would be convincing.

Just like that, Xiao Muqing led such a large 'army' to the Xiashui Town.

There was still five kilometers to go until he reach the Xiashui Town. Xiao Muqing ordered a camp to be set up, he did not care if the camp site was sturdy or not, but it had to be huge. With a single command, the entire army moved. Logging, digging, and constructing walls, thirty thousand Feng Army s moved methodically to build camps.

Only four hours had passed, and they had already seen the scale of the camp. The soldiers followed Xiao Muqing's instructions, and did not ask for quality, but for size, they took up more than ten miles of land to look inside. In the empty areas of the various parts of the camp, Feng Army s had even propped up many Straw Man s as they put on Feng Army armors. If one were to look from afar, it would be difficult to discern whether or not the armor was real.

At the same time that they were setting up camp, Xiao Muqing led his two regiment leaders, more than ten deputy generals and thousands of Feng Army to carry out the Trebuchet and City-breaking Crossbow of the Pingyuan Army and arrange a formation two miles outside of the city.

Xiao Muqing sat on the horse and looked at the Xiashui Town. This town was about the same size as a small town and its walls were also high.

After watching for a while, Xiao Muqing sneered, he turned his head and lightly asked: Who wants to be the leader, to go to the enemies to curse?

Just as he finished speaking, a deputy general named Gao Chang rushed forward and shouted with trembling hands: "Chief General, I am willing to go!"

Xiao Muqing looked at him, nodded, and said indifferently: "Yes!"

After receiving his approval, Gao Chang kicked the stirrup with both feet, shouted loudly, and spurred his horse out of the formation. In the blink of an eye, he was already a hundred steps away from the Xiashui Town, and at this time, a sharp whistling sound came from above the city walls, as an arrow flew down, nailing it onto the ground in front of the war horse.

The warhorse whinnied and raised its front hooves high, spinning two rounds before stopping. Gao Chang steadied his warhorse, raised his head and looked at the city wall, using the Spiritual Knife in his hand to point at it, he loudly shouted: "I am General Gao Chang from Feng Country! Which child of the Mo Country has come out to send himself to his death? "

At this time, Mo Country's dragon-baited camp was right at the top of the city, and he could see clearly the thousands of siege equipment that were placed outside the city. He did not need to fight, he could only see the array of Feng Army and his heart turned cold. Seeing that the General of Feng Country had come to issue a challenge, he gasped and anxiously said to his left and right: "Without my order, no one is allowed to fight!"

There was no need for him to say anything. No one in the army planned to go out of the city to fight. Now that they had heard his order, the high-ranking officers of the Mo Army all felt as if a weight had been lifted from their shoulders as they secretly heaved a sigh of relief. A single soldier would become a pile of raging flames. "Hu Tao was a coward who feared death, and was timid like a mouse. How could his generals be any better?

No one answered his call from Gao Chang outside the city, and no one responded to his call. Seeing this, Gao Chang's aura grew even stronger, and with one hand holding his blade, he galloped his horse around the city while laughing out loud: "Kid, you know your limits, if you come out and fight, you will be courting death. I advise you, there is still a way to live.

Aiya! Hu Diao grinned at the top of the city wall and wiped away his cold sweat as he asked in a trembling voice, "Have the people we sent to Yangchuan and Bailin sent a letter asking for help yet?"

"General, it has been here for a long time."

"But what about our reinforcements? Now that the Feng Army has arrived at the base of the city, why are the Yangchuan and its reinforcements still not here yet? "

"This ?" The Generals under Hu Diao could not answer this question.1

"Hurry up and send more people to ask for help. No matter what, we have to get reinforcements!" Hu Diao scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and said with a trembling voice: "The Feng Army has a great number of troops, I'm afraid it's not just one legion, once the enemy attacks, it'll definitely be an siege. At that time, even if we want to send people out of the city, we won't be able to get any reinforcements!"

When he finished, he saw Subordinate still standing there stupidly. Hu Tu was anxious and angry, he stomped his feet and shouted: "You guys go on, what are you waiting for?"

"Ah?" Ah, yes, yes, General, this lowly general will send more people to ask for help. "

The second time Mo Army sent people to ride their horses to Yangchuan, they would ask for help from Li Rong and Lu Hongming. Just as the men they had sent left from the east and west sides, the Pingyuan Army had also sounded the horn to attack.

Of course the Pingyuan Army would not directly send their troops into the siege, since they only had twenty thousand soldiers, as long as they started the siege, it would be exposed. Xiao Muqing ordered all the Trebuchet on his side to move, there was no need to hold back, they had to continuously suppress and test their opponent from afar.

Although the Pingyuan Army had been split into eighty thousand troops and most of the generals, ambushing soldiers did not need large weapons like Trebuchet and City-breaking Crossbow. The entire army of Trebuchet and City-breaking Crossbow were basically in the hands of these twenty thousand men.

Thousands of stone bullets rose into the air, drew out an arc, and smashed towards the walls of Xiashui Town. Similarly, thousands of crossbow bolts cut through the sky, with ear-piercing whistling sounds, as they ruthlessly pierced through the battlements of the city walls.

In just an instant, the walls of Xiashui Town bloomed all over, the rumbling sounds, the shattering of the walls, and the miserable screams of the people mixed together. Blood and flesh flew everywhere, rocks flew everywhere, and thick smoke permeated out, becoming a living human area.

The local army of Mo Country had never seen such a ferocious attack, nor had they even seen the shadow of the person who attacked the Feng Army.

"General, Feng Army is too fierce, let's quickly go down the city wall!" Protecting Hu Pao, the Generals s of the local army frantically ran out of the city.

Hu Pao held his head as he ran out of the city, shouting, "Continue to send people for reinforcements ?" Before he even finished his sentence, a huge stone bullet fell from the sky and landed not far in front of him. The two Mo Soldier s that were running down the city walls were struck dead, and before the two could even cry out, they were smashed into meat paste on the spot.

His legs were weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground. He cried out, "Send more people for reinforcements. As long as we don't see any reinforcements, we'll send people over ?"

Hu Diao and Generals all removed themselves from the city walls, while the rest of the Mo Soldier could no longer stay on top of the city, and began to crowd around the city walls. Everyone was shouting and cheering, and the North City walls at the front of the city walls had already turned into a pot of porridge.
