Chapter 772 Night Scene
Sometimes the formation of courage and a certain temperament does not necessarily require murder.
Just as these Tie Ce soldiers were silently looking at these horse thieves who stopped because of Qi Zhuji's words, at the end of the wall of the city of Shaerkang, which was still many distance away from their pass, several powerful people in thick cloaks were also looking outside the city in silence.
On the wasteland outside the city, on the hillside, and on the rivers in the distance, there are dense tents everywhere.
These seemingly crude but durable tents are like mushrooms that emerge from the ground, extending densely in every corner of their sight. Even those places that are not usually suitable for resident are full of such tents.
The number of troops has exceeded the imagination of everyone in the city.
But these people from Pochao clan know very well that after sunrise tomorrow, more troops will arrive.
Of course, you can't beat it anymore.
Although Charkang City is known as the throat city in Dangxiang, although this city is directly built at the most critical pass from the east to the central Dangxiang, it is like a huge gate falling between two mountains, directly pinching the only passage from the east to the central Dangxiang that allows a large number of people to pass through.
But no matter how they occupy the geographical advantage, after hearing the news of the fall of Daerban City, these people from Pochao clan would never be arrogant and still feel that they could fight against the army of Xia Baying and Tuyuhun.
In terms of military strength, the number of armies and the number of cultivators, the city of Shaerkang cannot be compared with the city of Daerban guarded by Tuoba Xiongxin.
Since it is impossible to beat it, it seems that the only way to surrender is to surrender.
But he surrendered but did not surrender, which made people a little confused.
Po Chaoqin Gong looked at the uncles beside him. The worry and doubts between his eyebrows became increasingly intense. He was the eldest son of the leader of the Po Chao clan, so he knew more details about this war that was already at the gate of the city.
The Pochao clan is the weakest among all the royal families of Dangxiang. The city has only stored about 50,000 troops. If they want to defend this city, they have to rely more on the Mi Qin and Fei Ting clans. The Mi Qin clan is the owner of the Dangxiang throne at this moment, so they are naturally unwilling to lose everything they have now, and they will never bow down to Xia Baying directly. After all the important territories of Fei Ting clans, when the city of their Pochao clans was destroyed, the other side's army drove in, and Fei Ting clans' territory was not preserved.
However, except for the initial awareness of the abnormal movements on the Tuyuhun border, the Mi Qin and Fei Ting mobilized a total of less than 40,000 troops to come here, neither the Mi Qin and Fei Ting nor the Fei Ting had sent any further troops to aid.
The reason is actually not difficult to guess. Mi Qin and Fei Ting did not feel that after giving their all their strength, they were the opponents of Xia Baying and Tuyuhun coalition forces, because they felt that it was impossible to be stronger than Tuoba.
According to the latest reliable military information, the Mi Qin and Fei Ting were even preparing for large-scale migration. They had already turned a large amount of wealth to the westernmost part of Dangxiang. When facing the invincible strong enemy, these two royal families also chose the same approach as those of the vulnerable groups before, reducing losses as much as possible and migrating to places where they could escape the war.
These uncles are probably more clear than themselves about these military information. So why don’t these people make a decision as soon as possible? Is there any miracle that can happen?
"Is it my father who can't bear to bear?"
He had too many questions in his heart, so he couldn't help but ask softly to these uncles: "There is another reason I don't know?"
"He is like you, there will be no idea that no one is in the city, and the city is dead."
His question aroused the laughter of these originally very serious uncles, "There is no essential difference between our Pochao clan and surrendering to the Mi Qin clan and submitting to Xia. We never had the idea of burning together. But the reason why we Pochao clan is different from those ordinary tribes is that we will remind ourselves at any time to make the most appropriate choice at the most appropriate moment."
The tangled texture between Po Chaoqin Gong's eyebrows did not disappear, and he still didn't understand it very much.
"Xiabaying, or the lack of King Hidden, her enemy is not in our city. We are not qualified to be her enemies." Among these Pochao people, one of the thinnest man turned his head and looked at Pochao Qingong and said.
He was Po Chaoque. He was born to be the thinnest and sickest among his brothers of his generation. His mother even doubted whether he could live beyond three years. However, more than ten years later, he became one of the most important figures in Po Chao's family with his wisdom.
"I think there will be variables."
He looked at Po Chaoqingong and continued, "Her variables may come from General Achaizhun, or from the Northern Wei Dynasty. After all, she has new allies, Lin Yi, the general of Shenwei Town West in the Southern Dynasty, the disciple of He Xiuxing, the master of Jiange, the city breaker of Daerban City, and the master of Yilong."
Dangxiang paid more attention to blood than the Southern Dynasties. Bloodline and title were the ideas they constantly instilled into all the people in order to maintain the rule of the royal family.
Important figures of Dangxiang will add some titles to their titles, but only titles that are widely known and shocking enough are considered titles. At this moment, this Zhijiang of Pochao clan added a series of titles when he mentioned Lin Yi, but no one found it long and no one found it funny. Instead, the more he said a title, the stronger the awe in these people's eyes.
Po Chaoqin was stunned for a moment and said, "So neither my father nor you have ever thought of defending this city?"
"If you want to surrender, you should surrender to Xia Baying. It is wrong to surrender to the Tuyuhun people first." Po Chaoque looked at the dense camp tents outside the city in silence and said, "What's more, they have never attacked the city. Lin Yi, the general of the Southern Dynasty, is not easy to kill. Judging from all his previous deeds, he is as trustworthy as Xia Baying, so Xia Baying chose to form an alliance with him. Now if these Tuyuhun people attack the city, it will be difficult for us to deal with. If Xia Baying and Lin Yi arrive, they will at least give us a chance to talk."
Po Chaoqingong finally understood what these people were thinking, but his brows frowned a little deeper and said, "It is not the best choice to wait for the rabbit in normal times, not to mention that when we face Xia Baying and Lin Yi, we still choose to wait here, so we seem too arrogant."
Po Chaoque's eyes finally felt a little relieved. He looked at Po Chaoqingong and whispered: "That's why your father is not in this city until now."
Po Chaoqingong's breathing suddenly stopped. He finally realized completely and said in a daze: "My father has already gone to ask for a meeting..."
Po Chaoque smiled and said, "There is no warning in the distance, so there is no accident. He should have met King Wuzang and General Lin Yi now."
At this time, another man also turned around, looked at Pochaoque and smiled, and said, "Or what night view do you think we are watching?"
