The orc army attacked the city bloodyly outside, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Yan Zhaoxuan had no choice but to gather all the gangsters in the city and serve as cannon fodder, mixed with the veterans, and take turns guarding.

But even so, the number of casualties every day still makes the number of guards on the city tight.

But these big men in the city don't care about the lives of those untouchables at all. There are almost more than 8,000 warriors from each family, divided into two teams day and night, and go to the city wall to supervise the battle, unless the orc army really attacks the city.

, otherwise, their main task is to kill those untouchable cannon fodder soldiers who dare to escape.

Unless the orcs have a siege ladder to briefly attack the city, they are generally quite safe.

Of course, Yan Zhaoxuan still needed their strong fighting power, so not only could he not be harsh, but he had to find a way to get them delicious food and drink to serve them.

All the chicken, duck and fish that were finally obtained went into the stomachs of these warriors. It would be good if the soldiers who really defended the city were full. Some of the cannon fodder soldiers were even hungry. Yan Zhaoxuan saw this and was anxious.

heart.

The atmosphere in this army is getting worse and worse. This hungry guy fights to death and survives, and this idle guy is always beating and scolding people.

Sometimes the cannon fodders even deliberately relax, even if they risk getting injured themselves, they still put the beasts on the wall and let the warrior masters also fight with all their might.

This situation became more and more frequent, and the conflicts between several different types of soldiers further deepened. Yan Zhaoxuan was not completely aware of the dissatisfaction and resentment of the lower-level soldiers, but he divided the soldiers from the orc army into several groups.

I kept going hunting in the surrounding villages, even dragging back a cart full of supplies from time to time, which made me feel worried.

This siege only requires defense but not attack. The opponent has supplies and troops. I'm afraid it can't be completed in a few days. Now it's okay to siege the city for three to five days. What if the siege lasts for half a month, a month, or even two or three months?

The food in the city is enough to last for half a year, but this is enough for rich families to last for half a year or even longer, but as poor people, almost no family has half a year's food reserves.

When the food is gone, what will happen to the city?

The city wall is tight here, and the sound of fighting can be heard all day long in the outer city. Therefore, these days, the untouchables in the outer city are all hiding in their homes. If they don't have rice to cook at home, they really don't dare to go out on the street.

Hang around, who knows if you will be caught on the wall and used as cannon fodder by the gentlemen who suddenly appear.

The inner city, thousands of meters away, seemed completely unaware. The streets were as busy as usual, except that the prices of rice, grain, meat and oil had gone up like crazy, but the shops were still open and the restaurants were full of guests.

Everyone behaves like a normal person.

This is even more true in the palace.

Although everyone said that the city gate was tight, they only kept it in words and did not really realize how close the danger was to them.

Many people even focused on Yuan Wense, thinking that studying how to get the family's nephew to marry Yuan Wense was much more useful than studying how to fight against the orc army.

Concubine Rong received the requests from those ladies, her face was so full of love and she smiled so lovingly that she felt so hateful that she vomited blood in her heart.

Why?

Because most of these proposers have better conditions than Zhou Yinran.

What does this mean?

Yuan Wense is now stealing someone and remarrying in public, and there are so many men with good conditions asking for marriage. So, wasn't he blind as Yuan Wense meant in the beginning?
