Kiyoi licked his lower lip, he couldn't wait a little too much.

Night on the steppe comes late, even at dawn than elsewhere.

Under the cover of night, the flagpole blows in the wind, and there is a thick bloody atmosphere inside and outside the gate, and the vultures and crows fly around the sky.

When Meng Fei stepped on the city wall with a meniscus knife on his waist, he saw a tall and thin figure standing at the corner of the city wall. With his hands behind his back, his eyes looked straight into the distance. The hunting wind swept his bamboo-blue robe, and his black hair was messy.

Meng Fei hurriedly walked over in armor and said in a deep voice: "Childe, why did you suddenly come to the city wall, it is windy here." What's more, your illness is just right, and even the miracle doctor said that you will rarely see the wind. The tone was full of worry.

The thin figure turned his face to a slightly pale and indifferent countenance. Nodding slightly, he said suddenly; "How long did you say the army would arrive?" Xu had been standing on the high wall for a long time, and couldn't help but bow his head and cough lightly.

"The day after tomorrow at the latest, if the army doesn't come, I don't know if the pass can still hold on." Meng Fei's face was also full of solemnity after speaking, and he couldn't help but sweep his gaze not far away. It seems to have a look through the vast night.

Now, it has been three days since the general Huwei led 3,000 soldiers out of the pass to meet the enemy's lured Niutou Mountain, and there is still no news coming back.

But she had to admire her courage and boldness, and even won a three-day respite for Kannai, and even chased most of the fierce attacks on Kannai.

Suddenly, the man's eyes widened. Staring at the figure that was getting closer and closer not far away, it became clearer and clearer, and the sound of hooves in the distance was in the sky, and the whistling sound was sharp.

It was the hooves of thousands of horses, mixed with the breath of a man and the cold light reflected in the torches. It's like a pack of wolves that have been hungry for a long time, just waiting to pounce on them and bite them so bloody that they chew their bones into their stomachs.

Tonight's moonless is enough to make the entire Xiyang Pass city wall tremble, the sound of horses' hooves is overwhelming, with black clouds covering everything, and in an instant, it stopped at a place that is only two shots away from the gate of Xiyang Pass.

As they moved out of the way, the infantry carried siege ladders and tried to storm the city.

The sound of a crossbow creaking sounded in the sky, and Meng Fei stood on top of the city wall, and even looked up at the green jade that was only a dozen steps away from him, and the torch glow shrouded in the unrecognizable green jade.

Qingyu held on to the cold stone wall with both hands, and with a pick, the sand covering the stone bricks was all over his fingernails, and he was both shocked and a little desperate.

What's more, the whole face completely lost its blood color because of this, and then several heavy coughs came out, as if even the heart, lungs, spleen and liver were going to be coughed out in the next second.

"Enemy attack, prepare for battle!"

"Enemy attack, prepare for battle!" The high drums of the city walls beat heavily, one heavier than the other.

The sound of the drum seems to be stepping on the tip of a person's heart, or pulling the strings that are already tight even more thoroughly, until they cannot bear it and break.

With a whistle, the team that was breathing in the darkness lit up in an instant, and the torches in the hands of countless people lit up to the sky and reflected in Meng Fei's eyes.

Beyond the two shots were the Hun cavalry and infantry who were waiting for the battle, their silhouettes lit up in the red flames, and there were catapults and ballistae that they got out of nowhere, and what was even more suffocating was the climbing soldiers.

The lights of Xiyang Guancheng were lit, but there was no voice, only the city wall was full of soldiers. The torches were blazing, and tonight was a crucial night.

As long as they hold out for a day, they can wait for the army. Tonight they will hold on no matter what, for the sake of their families and their homes, they must not fall.

At this time, in the mountains and forests outside the pass not far away, He Dangli finally had a chance to take a breath after exterminating a small Hun detachment. is frantically stuffing food into his mouth, and he doesn't care about the blood and sweat stains between his fingers.

"Ah Li, how are you doing?" Zhu San, whose arm was injured and was now hanging with a bandage, walked over, and threw it over with a small green fruit in his hand, his mouth was still full of disgust; "Uncle saw that you eat these hard steamed buns all day long, and you are about to fade out of your mouth, this fruit tastes good, but it is a little astringent but the taste is okay."

"Alas, you said that Yan Zichen, who was killed that day, hasn't come with a large army for so long, and he is grinding and chirping like a girl. Phew, it's an insult to say he's a bitch, I'm afraid even the speed of the turtle is faster than him. I don't know if he died on the way, his father or his mother died, or he had hemorrhoids on his buttocks. Fuck, Lao Tzu was unhappy as early as when he was ordered to be a general, do you think this turtle grandson will deliberately grind and chirp to kill us because he has a grudge against the two of us. Zhu San couldn't help but curse in his mouth, his eyebrows were so frowning that it was almost the word 'Sichuan', because none of them knew that if the army was not coming.

There is only one way to die when they come, but they are so unwilling, obviously they have persisted for so long.

"No, although Yan Zichen has a grudge against us on weekdays, he is not the kind of person who cares about the overall situation with his own selfishness, not to mention that we left Liu San and Liu Si and two people behind. How could they possibly sit back and watch. He Dangli shook his head when he heard this, until he finished eating the best corner of the biscuit in his mouth.

Fang Cai raised his eyes and stared at Zhu San with burning eyes, and said in a tone that could not be ignored; "Later, you will take a team of 100 people back to the pass first, I am afraid that they will make some moves tonight, and Xiyang Pass may not be able to hold it." As he spoke, even the atmosphere around him froze and became heavy again.

Even if you don't want to admit it, you know it to each other.

When the words fell, it was obvious to the naked eye that Zhu San's face became iron blue and stiff, "But what if I leave, what will you do!" Do you want to die in it? The volume suddenly increased, the fists clenched, and the green tendons were exposed.

"Compared to here, Kannai needs you more, and your wounds need to be treated." The matter was urgent, and there was no room for her to say more.

"Bah, why don't you tell you. Lao Tzu won't leave, so you'd better choose someone else. Lao Tzu and you are brothers, even if they die, they will die together, if you want to die, you will die in front of Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu will give you a chance to collect the body. I don't know what happened to the lion, who was on the verge of rage, and the fruit in his hand was crushed into a pulp and left between his fingers. The whole face is even darker and the bottom of the pot, and the storm is coming.

"If you don't go, it's hard to make it happen, you want to die here with me! When I came, I promised General Meng that he would take care of you. I don't want to see my good brothers die in front of me one by one, you know it or not. The forest was silent, and even the scene where they quarreled so much that their faces were red and their necks were thick were suppressed by their voices.

lest we ushered in the Hun army, the forest was silent, and even the sound of wind and grass could be heard clearly.

Now they are so tired and tired that they almost don't even have the strength to hold a knife in their hands. With the strength of this quarrel, it is better to use it to recharge energy, and maybe cut off a few more wriggling heads.

In the end, the result of the quarrel between the two was naturally unpleasant.

There is no moon or stars tonight, and the breeze brings the fragrance of plants and trees mixed with the lingering smell of blood.

"General, the Huns are attacking the city." The sentinel who had been sent to spy rolled off his horse, his face almost transparent in the moonlight.

"When did they launch it?" He Dangli forcibly suppressed the panic that arose in his heart, and covered his face with a bronze mask.

"General Huiyu, it's three minutes at the end of the day."

It was now a child, and it was four or five hours before the siege.

"Tell me to go down and leave for home at once." He Dangli and Zhu San glanced at each other, and they both saw the words 'fierce and auspicious' from each other's eyes.

Where there is still a half-separation between the two talents, there are only the same goals. The city cannot be broken!

She originally brought nearly 3,000 people out of the customs, but now there are no less than 1,000 left. The Huns also had at least 40,000 people, and if they were encountered, they would undoubtedly be children who hit stones with eggs.

The soldiers in the team have been honing each other for a long time, and they have a great advantage over a rabble. And their disadvantage is too obvious, that is, there are few people.

He Dangli led the army out of the encirclement, and after Zhu San broke off, he went straight to the pass. Along the way, there were many Xiongnu soldiers, and they were surrounded by regiments and were not allowed to enter or exit. It's a dilemma.

The closer the army is to Xiyang Pass, the faster it is. In addition, coupled with the urgent reports from the front from time to time, if they were a little slower, they would already be more than lucky.

Later, it was decided to abandon the baggage and logistics troops behind, and the army went first, followed by grain and grass.

Zhu San, who fought bloodily, picked people off his horse with a horse lance, and drove a horse to catch up with the people in front.

He Dangli is good at using the knife, the moves are strange and flexible, and he has already killed a bloody way in a moment.

"Who's the leader?" Not far away, a group of Xiongnu generals gathered around a colorful little man, dressed in tiger skin animal clothes, Ahanlu squinted his eyes carefully, staring at the people who were fighting bravely not far away. The corners of his lips are hooked, revealing a slightly interesting smile.

"Back to the Great Khan, that's the enemy's Huwei general." As a Hun person, they have naturally heard of this frightening name, but compared to this. They pay more attention to the appearance of this person, who is better than spring flowers, the beauty of peach pears, a beauty that can be painted in every movement and stillness, or a rare beauty in the world.

"The little one is that I heard that the general is not only as beautiful as the king of Lanling back then, but even the emperor of the Han people is infatuated with him, and even does not hesitate to break his sleeves with him, sleeping and eating with him day and night. It is better for the khan to capture this person alive, and then it is good to add more chips in his hand, and even humiliate the emperor of the Han people, wouldn't it be beautiful. The man who spoke was short, and his cloudy eyes were full of light, even greed.
