Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 584 The Great Xia is teeming with wild beasts

Meanwhile, the situation remained the same about fifty miles outside the walls of Cloud Peak City.

The fourth elder of the kobolds sat inside the large tent, leisurely watching two women who had been abducted from countries surrounding the Great Xia.

"Hahaha, how many years has it been? If the clan leader hadn't forbidden us from leaving that continent, humans would have been our slaves long ago."

After saying that, he pulled over a woman and pulled out a long sword about ten centimeters long.

The subordinates on the side showed no intention of avoiding the situation.

"Fourth Elder, when will those wild beasts be released?"

"Haha... Haha... Tonight, while it's dark, send more of your beastmen to cooperate. Use your bows and arrows to open up gaps in the walls. It will be easy for them to enter the city."

After saying that, he focused on his own gameplay again.

After listening, the subordinate nodded, looked at the scene in front of him, turned around and left the main tent, then went into his own barracks.

As night fell, the entire camp became quiet.

Suddenly, footsteps approached, and one by one, the large tents behind their barracks were opened.

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a dense swarm of animals had gathered in the open space.

The Fourth Elder swayed his somewhat unsteady body, then threw a piece of his forearm on the ground.

Wiping the blood from his mouth, he said, "Gentlemen, our purpose in going to Great Xia is to create chaos within their ranks."

"You may do whatever you wish!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and sent all the beasts to the walls of Cloud Peak City.

Immediately afterwards, the dog-headed army sounded the attack horn at the city gate.

Si Wei and the garrison general stood atop the city wall, watching the densely packed enemy soldiers.

His face was so gloomy it could drip water: "Lord City Lord, with an attack of this scale, I'm afraid we can't hold out for long!"

"You're giving up before the battle? Aren't you afraid I'll chop you up?"

Si Wei turned his head and shouted angrily at the general of the city's garrison.

Then he turned to the musketeers on the city wall and said, "Soldiers, this is not just an invasion by foreign enemies, but a racial war between humans and animals."

"We are the Cloud Peak Army, and we are the people of Cloud Peak. So let's show the spirit of the people of Cloud Peak!"

"Behind us are our loved ones, our fathers, brothers, and children, and we are the shoulders they rely on the most."

"Things have come to this, we have no way out. Even if we all die in battle, we cannot let those beasts outside set foot on the clouds!"

After saying that, the musketeers immediately set up a long defensive line on the city wall, waiting for the dog-headed army to enter their firing range.

In an instant, the entire city wall was brightly lit, and smoke from battle rose everywhere.

The kobolds, upon reaching the edge of the firing range, began firing arrows at the city gate.

As he watched the dense rain of swords fall on the open ground outside the city walls, Si Wei frowned deeply.

I thought to myself, what are these things doing? Are they brainless?

Seeing so many kobolds attacking, and having gathered almost all of his musketeers here, why were they only shooting arrows outside the city?

But at that very moment, on the other side of the city wall, a group of wild beasts, taking advantage of the darkness, had already arrived at the foot of the city wall.

Immediately afterwards, the lead tiger swiftly erected a tiger wall around the city wall.

A soldier carrying a long sword was about to urinate on the city wall.

Suddenly, a huge tiger's head appeared before his eyes.

The soldier, terrified, shouted, "Where the hell did you come from...?"

But the next second, his neck was bitten off by the tiger.

Then more and more tigers charged onto the city walls, followed by lions, hunting dogs...

Just as Si Wei was wondering, a figure covered in blood came running over.

"Lord City Lord, it's terrible! We've fallen into a trap!"

Upon seeing this, Si Wei immediately ordered his subordinates to help the man up: "What happened? Tell me quickly!"

"Over there, over there! Many wild beasts have climbed up the city walls and entered Cloud Peak City!"

Si Wei's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He thought to himself, "Oh no, this dog is so smart. No wonder it was shooting arrows from the outside."

So he quickly shouted to the general beside him, "What are you standing there for? Quickly take your men and go provide support!"

The general shuddered upon hearing this and immediately led half of his musketeer troops toward the gap in the wall where the wild animals had climbed.

But it was too late. The beast was incredibly fast, and by the time he arrived, it had already gone in more than halfway.

The general guarding the city felt a pang of fear upon seeing this. He thought to himself, "It's all over. If so many wild beasts are let in, the entire Cloud Peak City will be in complete chaos."

After arranging for soldiers to guard the area and to increase patrols, he turned and walked towards Siwei.

In such an urgent situation, we must notify Si Wei, otherwise, he'll have several heads to chop off.

He was just a minor garrison general in Cloud Peak City, not someone sent down from above.

After he finished his report, Si Wei's face immediately turned ashen.

"How do you think we should respond right now?"

The general pondered for a moment, then spoke somewhat timidly.

"Lord City Lord, it is said that you have some... relationship with Young Master Chu of Qingyun City. Why not ask him for help?"

Si Wei nodded thoughtfully after listening, but inwardly he was cursing.

Damn it, this is what you call having some connection? He even kidnapped my daughter.

But how can you tell outsiders about this? He's supposed to be someone's father-in-law, but there wasn't even a proper wedding.

He then coughed lightly and said, "This is one way, but ultimately, we must ask His Majesty for help."

"Have him send more men. Also, notify the yamen runners to do their utmost to protect the safety of the people. In addition, transfer three thousand musketeers to support the city."

"This matter is of utmost urgency; get it done immediately."

At the same time that Si Wei gave the order, the same thing was happening in Yunbian City.

Large numbers of wild animals have flooded into the city, causing widespread panic among the people. Wealthy families are paying high prices to hire servants to ensure the safety of their homes.

But those people who had no money also banded together for mutual support, forming hunting teams mainly by village to face this crisis.

Fang Shuzhen had a headache; he had originally thought he would be facing an army of kobolds.

Unexpectedly, a large number of wild animals appeared in the city, and these animals came from over the mountains. The gunpowder he had set up at the pass was basically useless.

Moreover, he dared not use it; if he did, how would he deal with the enemy's "dog-headed army"?

Looking at the eagles circling in the sky, he was furious but helpless.

Muskets simply couldn't reach that height.

Moreover, these things are extremely fast, and they come down every now and then to harass you for a bit before leaving.

Forced into a corner, he turned back to Yunbian City and entered the Chu Family Chamber of Commerce.

He understood that perhaps only Young Master Chu could resolve this crisis.
