The Beginning of Troubled Times Chapter 17 (3)

"Attack." Bai Qi coldly ordered.

Just outside the city, countless soldiers wrapped in black cloth suddenly appeared, no one knew when they were ambushed in that place, they carried the huge ladder and moved quickly, approaching the city wall for only a moment, and when the people on the city wall found out, they had already set up the ladder.

The sound of horns came and went, the city wall was already in chaos, Wu Ji had just slashed an enemy who had climbed the city wall, and knocked down the cloud ladder in front of him, and the screams sounded immediately, he thought that it would take at least a day or two for Tuoba Yan to attack the city, but he didn't expect that his camp would attack as soon as it was built, and his soldiers were all iron men?

A tooth-aching creak sounded suddenly, and it was the sound of the drawbridge being lowered.

"Who's !!guarding the winch?" Wu Ji grabbed a soldier in front of him and asked loudly.

"Yes...... It is Xu Huang, who is the head of thousands of people. The soldier was startled and stammered.

"Send someone! Send someone to the winch! Wu Ji roared and let go of the hand that was holding the soldier and rejoined the battlefield.

"City gates?!" Suddenly, Wu Ji seemed to think of something, he slashed over the fine work in front of him with a knife, took three steps and made two steps, approached the city gate, and shouted loudly, "Come and follow me to protect the city gate!" ”

The two teams closest to Wu Ji immediately approached him, and they slashed and killed all the way, eager to fly in front of the city gate. A thunderbolt fell, and the light illuminated Wu Ji's pale face, and he clearly knew what the consequences would be once the city gate was opened. There were still more than two feet from the ground, but Wu Ji suddenly turned over and jumped down from the city step, and the people behind him had to speed up their pace to keep up with him.

"Stop!" Wu Ji shouted loudly.

Sure enough, the guards had already turned into corpses.

"The deputy general of the infantry defense, Wu Ji, is that the name?" A man slowly stepped forward, lifted the hat of his cloak, and peeked out of the shadows, "I know you, how about it, do you want to join us and follow General Tuoba to take over the world!" ”

Wu Ji didn't answer, he held his knife and slashed down, and the man dodged sideways, took a few steps back, and distanced himself from him.

Is that your answer? But he is also a faithful man," the man said, holding up one hand, "and killing him." ”

More than a dozen people who were also wearing black cloaks suddenly rushed out of the surrounding shadows, and they pulled out the knives hidden on their bodies and went straight to Wu Ji.

Wu Ji raised his sword to block and asked, "How many of you are there?" ”

"This ...... But I can't tell. The man smiled.

"General!" Wu Ji and his people arrived.

"Leave me alone, go and protect the city gate first! If we lose the gates, we'll have nothing!" Wu Ji shouted and pushed away the knife that was suppressing him, these people in front of him were all good hands, and it was already hard enough to block their attacks, let alone fight back, but the situation at the city gate was not clear, and he regretted that he only brought two teams of people down.

There were slashing sounds in the doorway, and the speed of the suspension bridge falling was also slightly slowed down, Wu Ji was stabbed in the back, but the wound was not deep, and between the lightning and flint, the other party had already killed four people, as long as he found another opportunity to fight back, he could break through their encirclement. The neighing sound of the war horse suddenly sounded, Wu Ji raised his head suddenly, and the wolf smoke had been ignited at some point, and it seemed that reinforcements had arrived.

There are too many figures behind Guan Yu to count, there are a thousand? Two thousand? He held a knife and his face was gloomy and terrifying.

The man in black suddenly smiled, "General Guan, you've been waiting for a long time." ”

Wu Ji's face changed, "Guan Yu, you actually treason to the enemy?!" ”

But Guan Yu didn't speak, his war horse rushed towards Wu Ji without the slightest pause, and the momentum really seemed to take off Wu Ji's head. The people surrounding Wu Ji naturally made way for Guan Yu, Wu Ji's eyes widened angrily, and he stood with a horizontal knife, just waiting for Guan Yu to rush over, he cut him off the horse, peeled off the skin and bones.

Guan Yu's movements are not fast, and in terms of martial arts, he is far inferior to Wu Ji, so Wu Ji saw through his movements, and also saw that he suddenly changed the trend of the knife. It was impossible for that kind of knife to hit Wu Ji, but he didn't dare to be sure, he just tilted the blade slightly, so that even if Guan Yu was confusing himself, it would never be possible to succeed with one sword.

Fortunately, Guan Yu did not disappoint him.

Guan Yu's war horse and Wu Ji passed by, Guan Yu suddenly made a move, cut down three people with a knife, the war horse neighed forward, the rebels in front of him couldn't dodge, were kicked down by the horse's hooves, and lay on the ground wailing.

This time it was the man's turn to change his face, he pulled out his knife angrily, and roared: "Guan Yu, you untrustworthy villain!"

Guan Yu snorted coldly: "I don't remember that I promised you."

"Aren't you afraid that we will kill your wife?" The man in black roared.

"If she knew that I buried the Daxi River for her, she would not live in peace even under Jiuquan." Guan Yu slashed again, forcing back the surrounding enemies and winning another respite for Wu Ji.

Wu Ji raised his knife and slashed down heavily at the black-clothed man in front of him, and the black-clothed man blocked it horizontally, but did not block it. His knife was cut in half, and the huge, horrible wound stretched from his shoulder to his abdomen, and he fell to the ground before he even had time to snort. Wu Ji rolled forward, finally breaking out of the encirclement, and Guan Yu's men crossed him and fought with the black-clothed men.

"Wu Ji." Guan Yu suddenly shouted.

"General." Wu Ji raised his head and looked at him.

Guan Yu held the reins in one hand and the knife in the other, but his eyes were staring at the battlefield in front of him, "You go to the palace quickly and inform Your Majesty that the thief army is attacking the city." ”

"Me? Why don't you let the heralds go?" Wu Ji was shocked, and he retorted angrily, "Among these people present, who can compare to me in terms of force?"

"Yes, precisely because they can't compare to you!" Guan Yu replied, "In the palace tonight, I'm afraid there will be some changes, if you go, you don't have to come back, stay with Your Majesty and protect Your Majesty." ”

"Change?"

"Don't ask, this is not something you should know, walk two hundred steps in the direction of the imperial city, an alley on Yongning Street, your horse is there, go quickly." After Guan Yu finished speaking, he never looked back, and when Wu Ji walked away, he pinched the reins of the horse fiercely, sighed heavily, but did not say a word.
