Chapter 1166 The Troops Are Approaching the City
Jade Bird City, this name was chosen by Chang Ning for help from Mu Feng.
Now it has become the main city of most of Bluebird.
Twenty to thirty thousand people in the Blue Bird Division live here.
Although the construction of Qingniao City cannot keep up with Da Jiang's Dragon City, it is not far behind when compared with Longcheng City, Qinglong City, and White Tiger City. In this era, it can definitely be regarded as a defensive position.
The walls of Blue Bird City are six meters high and made of earthen lime bricks. They can withstand heavy mammoths and armored earth dragons attacking the city without any problem.
Jade Bird City has three gates, east, south and north.
Among them, the northern one is specially used to welcome visitors from Dajiang, which shows the intentions of the Blue Bird Department.
There is a pigeon tower near the north gate, which is exactly where Da Jiang sent people to help build the pigeon landing site.
This place is managed by dedicated personnel, who feed and drink the pigeons in strict accordance with Da Jiang's requirements every day, and check the number of pigeons without any slack.
On this day, the messenger who raised pigeons suddenly found a pigeon flying from the north and parked directly on the pigeon tower.
"Letter from Da Jiang!" The messenger's heart was beating wildly.
When Da Jiang came to help them tame pigeons, he once said: "If there is a crisis or critical moment, I, Da Jiang, will use carrier pigeons to send messages, and they must be sent to your chief as soon as possible!"
The messenger did not dare to delay, took out the secret message and ran straight to the great chief Keyowu.
"Great Chief, a letter from Da Jiang!"
Soon, Ke Youwu, Ke Wuji and the newly promoted leader of the tribe, Ke Baiguang, gathered together.
The letter is in Ke Wuji's hands, and now he is the most literate person in the Blue Bird Department.
He frowned after reading the letter, and then his expression became horrified.
"What's wrong?" Keyowu asked quickly.
Ke Wuji then told the contents of the letter, and Ke Youwu and Ke Baiguang were shocked.
Ke Baiguang shouted: "Great Chief, the reason why the Dali Department and the Shaoli Department joined forces to deal with our Blue Bird Department was because of accurate information. This time it is just a guess, could it be..."
Keyowu raised his hand to stop, without any hesitation: "Let all the warriors of the Blue Bird Division inside the tribe focus on defending the three gates, and all the warriors outside the tribe will be recalled to the city!"
"Over there where the salt is produced..." Although Ke Baiguang had doubts, he did not dare to question the chief's decision.
Keyowu shook his head: "More than 10,000 warriors from the Dali tribe came this time. They may have brought out all the warriors in the tribe. If the warriors from Wan Zhangyuan and Li Long's old land are here, we can still fight to the death with them. of.
But now there are only more than 4,000 soldiers inside and outside the city. Going out to fight them in a bloody battle will only result in unnecessary casualties.
There is enough salt in the salt-producing areas. If they just steal the salt for the sake of salt, forget it. At worst, we will turn around and take revenge.
As long as our soldiers from the Blue Bird Division complete the assembly, and with Da Jiang’s support, they will have no choice but to escape..."
Ke Baiguang couldn't accept it for a while.
Because what the chief said was obviously giving in, which was obviously inconsistent with the ancestral motto of the Blue Bird Tribe - the people of the Blue Bird Tribe are not afraid of death and will not surrender!
He looked at the high priest Ke Wuji.
Ke Wuji shouted: "What are you still doing? Just do what the chief said!"
"Yes!" Ke Baiguang hurriedly walked out, busy arranging various affairs.
Ke Youwu sighed and looked at Ke Wuji: "High Priest, will I disappoint my tribe by doing this?"
Ke Wuji shook his head: "You have done a great job. Our Blue Bird Department has been suffering from this incomprehension for so many years. If we had known this earlier, the tens of thousands of men in the Blue Bird Department would not have died in vain!"
Keyowu became more and more ashamed: "It's me who is incompetent!"
Ke Wuji shook his head: "No, in the past, if the Blue Bird Department did not have enough blood, it would only be bullied. It's just that we didn't have principles and flexibility like what Chief Mu Feng said."
Ke Yaowu's face became slightly clearer: "I hope everything is too late now..."
Just as the two of them were sighing, the white light came back and they were shocked: "Great Chief, it's not good!"
"What's wrong?" Keyowu shouted.
"People from the salt-producing land said that there are many enemies in the dense forest in the southwest. All the tribesmen there have been killed. All the soldiers nearby have gathered to buy time for the tribe!
Moreover, in addition to cavalry, the enemies that came also had all kinds of ferocious beasts! "
"What!" Ke Youwu and Ke Wuji were horrified, "He's really here. He's really a barbarian from the mountains in the south!"
Ke Wuji was devastated: "It's over, the three thousand people there..."
Keyowu also realized the problem, and was shocked and angry in his heart.
Needless to say, of the three thousand tribesmen, only about two thousand were warriors, and none of them had heavy cavalry or heavy weapons - they never thought that danger would come from the southwest!
Therefore, the equipment for these warriors is still some bone knives, cattle and horses, and a small number of armored earth dragons.
Under such circumstances, how could they be a match for ten or twenty thousand soldiers?
You don’t have to think about it to know what the result will be!
But Keyowu knew that now was not the time to be sad, so he gritted his teeth and said: "Quickly, order all the tribesmen to enter the city, close the city gates, and defend the city!
Waiting for reinforcements to arrive! "
"yes!"
Ke Youwu was trembling all over. He looked at Ke Wuji and found that Ke Wuji's face was already pale.
The more than 4,000 warriors they mentioned earlier included those patrolling near the salt-producing areas.
Now that these people have been killed, there are only more than 2,000 available soldiers in Jade Bird City.
!
As for the remaining 5,000 or 6,000 soldiers of the Blue Bird Division, half are guarding the Yunmeng Division in the South at Wan Zhangyuan, and the other half are guarding Dali in the old land of Li Long together with Kuiwei City.
They didn't expect that Dali tribe would appear from the southwest where it was least likely to appear!
"Damn it, damn it!" Keyowu clenched his fists and yelled, "Damn Da Libu!"
Now they can no longer think about him and can only stick to it!
Not long after the Blue Bird Tribe closed the three city gates, Dakli and Tutan each led their warriors to arrive outside the Blue Bird Tribe.
From a distance, they saw the Bluebird City standing on the flat ground like a giant.
"What is that?" Tutan frowned and looked at Darkli.
Unexpectedly, Dacre also shrank his eyes.
He had never seen such a tribe.
Why is there such a high fence?
"Wait!" Dakli said subconsciously, "Stay away from their tribe!"
"What's wrong?" Tutan frowned, "We've already arrived at their tribe, shouldn't we rush up and destroy them?"
"No!" Dakli shook his head, "Their fence is weird, it's too high! They also have a kind of bow and arrow that can shoot very far, and they can kill you before you get there... Just wait!"
Before Dakli could finish speaking, Tutan had already waved his tooth gun and rushed forward on a leopard, shouting.
The soldiers around him also urged their mounts and beasts to rush forward.
"Idiot!" Dakli yelled angrily.
Although he hated Tutan, he didn't want to see this short-lived ally die.
Sure enough, Tutan, who rushed forward rashly, quickly learned his lesson.
Bows and arrows were released directly from Jade Bird City.
"Swish swish!"
"Puff puff!"
"Ahhh!"
Many of the first wave of barbarians who rushed forward were hit by arrows and fell to the ground screaming.
Tutan, who was rushing at the front, used the leopard's dexterous speed to avoid the arrows.
He rode a leopard close to the Blue Bird City Wall, looked up, and roared angrily.
His leopard couldn't get up to such a high place!
So without any hesitation, he urged the leopard to turn around and leave.
Tutan, who returned to the vicinity of Dakli, roared repeatedly: "Dakli!"
Darkli was unmoved: "I just reminded you that it was you who wanted your tribe to die!"
Tutan was furious and was about to step forward with his gun drawn.
Dakli subconsciously took a step back and shouted: "You are crazy. Now we are going to destroy the Blue Bird Department. If there is internal strife in the middle of the battle, will it benefit the Blue Bird Department?"
Tutan gritted his teeth, his eyes burst out with fire, he turned around and shouted coldly: "Hatta, let the rattan warriors come up!"
"yes!"
Soon, among the thousands of barbarians, one or two thousand strange-looking warriors appeared.
These people were wrapped in thin rattan, as if they were wearing clothes made of rattan.
In their hands, they held bone knives and tooth guns made of unknown types of animal bones, which were gleaming with light.
The most important thing is that on the shoulders of each rattan warrior, there are two or three monkeys squatting.
Dakli's heart trembled, and then his eyes widened.
The rattan warrior is a notorious and ferocious existence among the mountain tribes.
The rattans on their bodies are made of who knows what, and they are constantly being chopped by swords and cannot be soaked by water. The warriors wearing these rattan "clothes" completely ignore the attacks of their opponents.
The most important thing is that the rattans on these rattan warriors are as soft and tough as ropes. They can be thrown high to hang people on trees, and they can attack intruders who enter their territory from a high position, making them impossible to guard against.
And the mounts ridden by these rattan armies are all beasts with clear water and golden eyes.
Many years ago, during the war between the Dali tribe and the mountain tribes, it was these rattan troops who rode the blue-water golden-eyed beasts across the stream in the south of the Dali tribe and attacked and killed many Dali tribe soldiers.
If there weren't enough warriors from the Dali tribe, Bai Tuo, Cheng Huang Gao Da, and the burly armored dragon cavalry, they would have almost fallen into their hands.
It can be said that in the hearts of Dali soldiers, the rattan army is second only to the poisonous insect army!
Seeing Tutan's anger triggering the Rattan Army, he was sure in his heart that the Blue Bird Department would be in trouble...
