Although Lu Quan had only served as a county gongcao and was a civilian official before, he had seen the world at least. So in the face of this chaotic situation, he took the initiative to stand up, command, and allocated the people guarding the city.

Under such circumstances, most people may not speak well, but Lu Quan's status is there, and no one dares to refuse. Of course, this is not due to power, but a kind of respect for Lu Quan from the heart. They all know that Lingzhicheng is now on the verge of danger. Once the Hu tribe who killed people without blinking, no one will be spared if they conquer Lingzhicheng.

Therefore, Lu Quan took the initiative to stand up and direct the overall situation, and was supported by many people. Lu Quan naturally became the leader of the city and took on the heavy responsibility of defending the city and protecting the family.

With people like Lu Quan coming forward, everyone seemed to have a backbone. They firmly supported Lu Quan, as if they believed that under Lu Quan's leadership, the Zhicheng would be safe and sound.

Lu Quan dared not think so. The Xianbei people came in full force. According to the information we have obtained so far, there were at least tens of thousands of Xianbei people who captured Lulongsai. Such powerful troops made the regular army originally stationed in Zhicheng not necessarily the opponents, let alone the civilian army that was temporarily pieced together.

But in order to survive, they have to fight to the death. When people are in desperate situations, the willpower they burst out is often the most powerful. If everyone can unite, perhaps a miracle may not be guaranteed.

Lu Quan personally commanded and dispatched the civilian army on the top of the city. There was a key point of defense, and more personnel should be sent. There was an important area, and sufficient rolling stones should be prepared.

Lingzhi was originally just a county town, and the city defense facilities were relatively backward. In order to prepare for the rolling wood stones used to defend the city, Lu Quan took the lead in asking the civilian army to demolish his mansion and move the beams, pillars, bricks and stones to the city to act as rolling wood and rocks.

Even Lu Quan, the most luxurious mansion in Lingzhi City, was willing to demolish it, which shows how determined he was to defend the city.

Moreover, this example is very important. Everyone was deeply moved. No one cares about personal gains and losses anymore. In order to defend the city, they do everything they can.

The houses near the city walls were basically demolished, and the bricks, stones, beams, columns and wood were continuously transported to the city walls and piled up like mountains. With these "weapons", Lu Quan was full of confidence and believed that as long as the people in the city were united, they would definitely be able to repel the invading Xianbei people.

At this time, the Yuwen Department was already close to Lingzhi City. As the villages were constantly plundering along the way, the entire army's movement became extremely slow. However, the Yuwen Department was all cavalry, and once it was lifted up, it was as fast as thunder.

When they saw Lingzhi City, the soldiers of the Yuwen Xianbei began to scream. Compared with the small villages they robbed along the way, Lingzhi City was simply mouth-watering.

At this time, there was no barrier, and the Xianbei attacks were obviously accelerated. Everyone wanted to be the first to attack the city. This reward alone was enough to excite them.

The Xianbei people rushed to Lingzhi City, shouted loudly and came to curse, trying to lure the defenders to fight, and then find an opportunity to annihilate them.

Seeing that the gate of Lingzhi City was closed and the defenders on the city were crowded, Yuwen Mohuai, as a matter of local belief, was a regular army defending the city, so he tried to lure the defenders to fight.

But Lu Quan knew that the so-called "defense army" was just a temporary pieced together army, almost all of which were composed of ordinary people and slaves from various masters. He had no combat experience. Not to mention leaving the city to fight, even defending the city was reluctant to do so, so he ignored the Xianbei people's scolding. Anyway, the city gate was closed and he could not come in even if he said it through.

The Xianbei people cursed for a while, but they felt that they were fruitless. This was simply playing the piano against a cow. In order to lure the defenders to fight, they still shouted in Chinese, but in the end they were in vain.

Yuwen Mohuai knew that it would be useless to curse, so he ordered the Xianbei soldiers to attack the city.

This time, the Yuwen tribe was full of its nest. Almost all the troops of the entire tribe had been dispatched, and the momentum was extremely powerful. At this moment, the branch city would be surrounded, with a look of a slaughtering city.

Yuwen Mohuai ordered that the Xianbei soldiers abandoned their war horses, carried temporary simple cloud ladders, rushed up and climbed up along the city wall.

The civilian army guarding the city had only a few bows and arrows, and could not strike the Xianbei people at a long range. They could only throw bricks and stones and roll woods and smash them like raindrops after they climbed the ladder.

The quality requirements for soldiers in defending the city are relatively lower. As long as you have the spirit of hard work and the strength of two players, you can participate in the battle of defending the city. This is why Simalun proposed to engage in the purpose of fighting in Jizhou to be a soldier. Anyway, defending the city does not require a well-trained army, and only a sufficient number of people can defend the city.

Although the number of civilian troops invested by Lingzhicheng was not large, only a few thousand people, siege was not the strong point of the Xianbei people. They prefer to ride on horseback and fight torture. Now they are not used to the fact that the Xianbei people have many people, but they have difficulty making progress in the face of the tenacious defense of the Lingzhi defenders.

Seeing that the fat meat that was within reach could not fall into his hands, Yuwen Mohuai couldn't help but be furious and personally supervised the battle behind him, ordering the Xianbei army to strengthen its offensive and must take the order to the city as soon as possible.

The targets of the Xianbei people's invasion this time were not only Lingzhicheng, but also Yangle, the county seat of Liaoxi County and Tuyin, the county seat of Youbeiping County. These two county seats are Yuwen Mohuai's ultimate goal. Attacking Lingzhicheng is just an appetizer before a meal. If even Lingzhicheng cannot be defeated, how can we conquer Yangle and Tuyin?

The Xianbei people fought desperately to attack, causing great casualties to the civilian army defending the city. The biggest difference between ordinary people and regular army is the problem of tolerance. When the battle was in a difficult situation, these civilian army became a little panicked. Moreover, too many people died in battle, so they became afraid. Many people even developed the desire to retreat, and the desire to fight became weak.

When Lu Quan saw that it was not good, the situation was developing, so he made the city fall. So he shouted loudly, calling on the civilian army to fight bravely and do his best, and he could not let the Xianbei people rush up.

Lu Quan's command still played a considerable role, and the civilian army mustered up the courage to fight hard, blocking the Xianbei people from the city wall.
