Xiao Jingcong guessed that Yan Zixi was likely to be locked up somewhere in White Moon City, but he had been ambushed here in the past few days, and he had sneaked into White Moon City several times at night, but he didn't find any trace of Yan Zixi at all.

Dugu Xuerou has always lived in the city lord, and she is free to enter and exit the city lord's mansion, which makes Xiao Jingcong doubt her identity as Dugu Xuerou.

Being able to be so respectful to her by the city lord of White Moon City, apart from the royal family, Xiao Jingcong really couldn't imagine anyone else who could have such a prominent status.

However, he also sneaked into the City Lord's Mansion and searched there for two days and two nights, but did not find Yan Zixi's whereabouts. As for Dugu Xuerou, she hasn't gone out recently, and among the people she has seen, only Li Yuanxiao, the crown prince of Yuanxia, has met.

"Xi'er, where the hell are you......" Xiao Jingcong clenched his fists tightly, he hated so much, hated that he hadn't found Yan Zixi's whereabouts until now, she must be worried about death, right?

However, this trip to Xiao Jingcong was not in vain, during the three days of lurking, he heard the news that Dugu Yunliu was about to send troops, which was just right for Xiao Jingcong to rush back to make deployments. It is estimated that even Dugu Yunliu did not expect that his military intelligence would be overheard by Xiao Jingcong.

Xiao Jingcong temporarily gave up tracking Yan Zixi's whereabouts, and rushed back to the Xiao army garrison outside Cloud City overnight.

……

In the second watch of the night, the north direction of Cloud City was full of flames, and Dugu Yunliu personally led the 80,000 troops of Beiliang and Yuan Xia to kill Benyun City.

"Take Cloud City first, and then break the Xiao Army!"

Lonely Yunliu led the army to the city of Yuncheng, giving orders to the army behind him, and when he was about to forcibly attack the city, torches were also lit on the tower of the city gate, illuminating the area as if it were day.

"Lonely Yunliu, you are so bold, you actually offended my city!"

"This voice is ......"

Lonely Yunliu looked through the light of the fire on the city tower, and saw that standing on the city gate was Xiao Jingcong, the commander of the Xiao army, wearing white bright silver armor and a red cloak.

Xiao ...... Xiao Jingcong, why are you?! Dugu Yunliu looked at Xiao Jingcong standing on the city tower in disbelief, and immediately exclaimed. Shouldn't you go to Princess Xiao......"

When the soldiers behind Dugu Yunliu learned that the person on the city tower was Xiao Jingcong, the peerless general of Da Xiao, they also panicked, if it weren't for Dugu Yunliu commanding in front of the battle, I am afraid that it would have been a mess long ago, which is enough to see how terrible Xiao Jingcong's prestige is in the hearts of the soldiers of Daliang!

"All the soldiers must be alarmed, even if he is Xiao Jingcong, he is only one of them, today my 80,000 army is here, are you still afraid of him a little Xiao Jingcong? The generals listened to the order, rushed to kill with me, broke the city gate, and captured Xiao Jingcong alive! Dugu Yunliu pulled out the sword in his hand, repented and began the first round of charge.

"It's coming!"

The siege has finally begun.

The soldiers of the Liang-Xia coalition army from three directions rushed towards the walls of Cloud City almost simultaneously.

They set up a ladder and tried to climb the tower from the ladder, but Xiao Jingcong had already asked his generals to lead the soldiers to guard the tower, cutting down all the Liangxia coalition troops who wanted to climb the tower, and falling into the moat that was several feet deep.

Countless Liangxia coalition troops fell from the sky, and then countless others followed.

In front of the main gate of Cloud City, dozens of soldiers of the Liang Xia Liang Army pushed the cart and slowly moved towards the city gate. When Xiao Jingcong saw this, he hurriedly ordered the archers to shoot the soldiers who rushed to the door. Clouds

However, Dugu Yunliu seemed to have been on guard for a long time, and when he saw Xiao Jingcong release his arrows, he immediately asked the shield soldiers to raise their shields and move forward, blocking the rain of arrows shooting down from the city tower. The car was slowly pushed in front of the city gate, and the shouts of the soldiers slammed into the city gate, making a loud "boom".

Xiao Jingcong gritted his teeth, then turned around and ordered the soldiers to smash the big stone down and splash the boiling oil.

Countless screams came and went, and most of the Liang Xia soldiers who were carrying the huge Chong Wood were killed and wounded, and then the soldiers behind rushed forward after them, and the corpses of their companions on the ground under their feet continued to move forward without hesitation.

"Bang!" The huge paulownia wood rumbled against the city gate, as if it were striking the hearts of people.

It lasted about half an hour, and finally the first Liang Xia soldier rushed to the city wall, and then the second, third, and fourth...... The soldiers rushed to the tower.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingcong immediately ordered his soldiers: "All the soldiers listen to the order, follow me to kill the enemy!" ”

The soldier was red-eyed and shouted for martial arts. For your own fate, kill the enemies in front of you.

The sharp blade slashed into the body and was still fearless, with reluctance and resentment, and plunged the knife in his hand into the opponent's chest again.

Bright red blood flowed out and flowed quietly, converging into a river of blood. Dugu Yunliu stood in the rear, scanning the battle situation in front of him with cold eyes, constantly mobilizing the army and impacting Yuncheng.

"Damn it!"

How many more people are invested?!

Dugu Yunliu was in a hurry, and a cloud city with no more than 30,000 defenders was so strong.

The battle lasted from the second watch to dawn, and both sides suffered heavy losses. After paying more than 10,000 corpses, Liang Xiabing finally retreated.

Xiao Jingcong and his subordinate soldiers didn't bother to take a breath, and Zhang Huatian, the city lord of Cloud City, walked up to the city tower, came to hit Xiao Jingcong, and asked with a grin.

"Lord Xiao, are you injured?"

Xiao Jingcong glanced at the knife wound on his arm absently, and said with a sneer: "It's okay, these blood are all thieves." City Lord Zhang, has Liang Xia withdrawn his troops? ”

Zhang Huatian nodded, then walked to the city tower and looked at the north, took a deep breath, and replied leisurely: "The Liangxia coalition army has retreated eighty miles, and there should be no more charges in a short time." ”

"How so?" Xiao Jingcong had a heavy face and asked in a cold voice.

Zhang Huatian seriously analyzed the battle situation, "In this battle, the Liangxia coalition army lost 13,000 men and horses, and these 13,000 men and horses are their elite, but they still haven't been able to take down Yuncheng, presumably they won't attack again, and the damage will only be more severe if they continue to attack, and then I'm afraid that the lonely Yunliu will be directly dismissed and investigated, right?" ”

"Don't be careless! Dugu Yunliu is ruthless, if he really goes crazy and throws all his troops to attack, he is afraid that Yuncheng will only be broken. Xiao Jingcong reminded him, he kept frowning, he didn't believe that Lonely Yunliu would withdraw his troops, and the fat in his hand was thrown away like this, it was definitely not the style of Dugu Yunliu.

Zhang Huatian also responded, "What Xiao Wangye said is extremely true, Weichen has taken precautions as soon as possible, and the soldiers and horses from all over the place are also rushing here, as long as that Dugu Yunliu dares to go his own way and continue to attack, we can surround him, and when the time comes, his 80,000 army will not return!" Speaking of this, Zhang Huatian's eyes also flashed with cold light.

Xiao Jingcong nodded slightly, and then asked again: "City Lord Zhang, is there any news of Princess Xiao in the enemy barracks?" ”
