"Father, go!"
Wuuuu!
"If you die in battle, I'll raise my child alone and never remarry. I'll be a widow for you for the rest of my life!”
After the man was the first to come out and ask Yang Hao for a weapon, a young woman with a child ruthlessly let go of her husband's hand and encouraged him to die.
Yes, he was going to die!
"San Lang, San Lang, you are a man, a descendant of the Han Clan. Take courage, don't worry about me!”
"Hurry up and go!"
"Didn't you say you wanted to protect me? This is protecting me. Father and Mother, I will take care of them."
Then, another young man was cruelly pushed over by his wife.
Jiang Ke knew this youth. He was the third child in his family, and his nickname was Gou 'zi. He had only been married for less than a month and was only fifteen years old.
Eldest and Second Brother were both dead. They had all died in battle.
Then, he looked at his parents, who were crying as they waved their hands fiercely, telling him to go over and find General Yang.
Wuuuu!
"My son!"
"Three hundred years ago, when the Hu caused chaos in China, we relocated.”
"Now, we've finally defeated the Hu and taken Songzhou. If we take it, it's ours. We can't lose it.”
"Child, go!"
The teenager nodded at his lover, touched his child's toot little face, and bid farewell to his parents.
They all walked in front of Yang Hao and cupped their hands."General, please give us weapons."
"Although there are no soldiers who can fight, they still have the courage to exchange their lives for their lives.”
He did not say too much, nor did he say anything as bold as pointing his sword at the sky. He only said,'I still have the courage to exchange my life for my life'!
A simple sentence was worth thousands of words. It was enough. It was really enough.
Yang Hao and Jiang Ke nodded, feeling very gratified.
However, in terms of responsibility, it was their duty to protect their territory and fight the enemy!
These prisoner armies were all brave and daring. They had their own fighting capabilities and also had the element of atonement!
And these commoners and youths had the weakest combat strength. It was a duty for them to stand up for the sake of the nation!
In that case, let's divide the combat missions according to the degree of danger!
After Yang Hao and Jiang Ke discussed, they cupped their hands and bowed to the commoners.
"Thank you, fellow villagers!"
"Youngsters, take your weapons and send your families and non-combatants up the mountain to take refuge.”
"After that, you will come back and close the east gate.”
As soon as Yang Hao finished speaking, everyone understood.
Yang Hao had these young soldiers who had come over at the last minute to be the second line of defense.
If the west gate was broken and the Tubo rebels entered the city, they would guard the south gate outside and prevent them from passing through Songzhou and trampling on the Central Plains.
This was the last step. If the imperial court's army arrived in time, they could survive. If he didn't make it in time, he would die in battle!
How should he put it? Relatively speaking, it gave these young soldiers a glimmer of hope.
Yang Hao looked at the unmoved villagers and knew that they were unwilling to get this extra glimmer of hope.
"Brothers, my Han Clan youths, your mission is very important."”
"We can't bet on one thing. We have to buy as much time as possible until the Imperial Court's army arrives, understand?”
The teenagers looked at each other and felt that what General Yang said was reasonable.
"As you wish, General!"”
"Alright, go get your weapons!"
A few soldiers led the young civilians to collect their weapons, and a few soldiers led the non-combatants to gather at the east gate. They waited for these brave Chinese men to come forward and send them up the mountain to take refuge.
At night!
They just watched. Although Songzhou City was backward compared to the Central Plains, it was still a hundred times better than before under the rule of the Han people.
Empty, the city was empty!
Unwilling to accept this, Yang Hao secretly made up his mind to wait until the imperial court's army arrived. He absolutely could not let the city that he had painstakingly built be destroyed by a humanoid monster that could do nothing but destroy.
"Alright, it's our turn!"
Shua!
With a command, the 400 soldiers and 600 prisoners formed a 1,000-man army.
"Li Qiang, lead a hundred people and collect all the water bags and hemp ropes in the city.”
"Wang Feng, lead 200 men to gather lamp oil and strong alcohol.”
"Zhang Ren, bring the new warriors and rest for four hours. We will immediately train our weapons and assassination techniques.”
"Zhao Da, lead the rest of the people to eat, drink, and pee on the city wall.”
"Yes!" The four centurions cupped their hands.”
A series of orders were calmly issued, and everyone was prepared. God knows when new enemies would arrive.
Yang Hao and Jiang Ke were injured and wearing armor. They each held their Plum Blossom Silver Spear and Green Heavy Spear, and a sword hung on their waists as they headed towards the city tower.
At this moment, he saw that the city gate had also been repaired.
It was just that the appearance of this city gate made Yang Hao somewhat surprised.
The new city gate was made from the broken pieces of the city gate and was pieced together with nails. Then, the wooden doors of the common people's houses in the city were removed and nailed.
How many attacks could such a city gate withstand?
How useful was such a city gate?
It was probably useless, but the soldiers who had already done their best to repair the city gate smiled at Yang Hao.
"General, the city gate has been repaired."
"Thank you for your hard work. Continue to be on duty!" Yang Hao smiled faintly.”
It was a very simple and ordinary conversation without any grandiose words. But now that they could have such a simple conversation, it was enough to show that the Han Family's soldiers had long put life and death aside.
So what if I die? Songzhou is my Han territory. Dying in the Han territory was ten thousand times luckier than dying in the Western Regions or the Turks.
Wearing iron clothes and coming to the border was originally to die.
The only difference was when he would die. Normal, no need for too much motivation!
On the city walls and below the city tower, the soldiers were united. They held their spears in their hands and their swords at their waists. They looked forward and waited for the sun to rise.
Waiting for the unknown future!
Did the imperial court's army arrive first? Or did the Tubo rebels arrive first?
He did not know!
They only knew one thing. They had to wait until the imperial court's army arrived before they could all die.
If he died too early, he would have let down his ancestors!
He felt even more sorry for the Yangtze River and Yellow River behind him!
