When Qi Niang and the others arrived at the gate of the White Night City, there was no sign of attacking the city at the gate of the city, it stands to reason that the Dongwu army was like a broken bamboo, and it should be able to attack the city with all its might.

I saw that there was a thick pile of snow at the gate of the city, there was not a single footprint, and the surroundings were silent, not at all like someone had come. V approached on horseback, and dozens of archers suddenly appeared from the city gates, and their arrows were aimed at them. But one of them immediately recognized Qi Niang, who was walking in front of the crowd, and shouted to the archers: "Don't let go of the arrows, that's Mrs. Meng!" Open the gates! ”

With a "brush", the men quickly put away their bows and arrows.

Wei Zi'an was discussing the next strategy with the generals, when he heard a soldier coming in a hurry, thinking that someone from Dongwu was coming to attack the city, he immediately tightened his face and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Meng is here!"

Wei Zi'an was surprised, "Sister is here?" He was happy at first, but then he became anxious. What is my sister doing in this extraordinary period?

Wei Zi'an hurriedly ran out, Qi Niang saw that Wei Zi'an was safe and sound, and the boulder hanging in her heart fell to the ground, she walked quickly to him and hugged Wei Zi'an gently.

"Sister, why are you here?" Wei Zi'an did not have any happy look on his face, but a heavy melancholy. Although he wanted to see her, he didn't want to see her at this time.

"Zi'an, there is such a big crisis in White Night City, why don't you tell me?" Qi Niang was worried about Wei Zi'an's safety all the way, and there was inevitably a hint of reproach in her words.

Wei Zi'an frowned slightly, looked at her and said, "I don't want to involve my sister in it, who asked you to come?" Jiang Qihan? Or Ruoyun? ”

"It's me. I've brought some people with me, and they're all masters of the best of the best, and they're all here to help you. Qi Niang touched his slightly haggard face and said, "Zi'an, I am your relative, no matter how dangerous the road ahead is, I will stand by your side." ”

Wei Zi'an put his hand on the back of her hand and nodded, "Okay, I know, sister, I'll borrow your strength this time." But I don't want my sister to make any sacrifices because of me. ”

Wei Zi'an glanced at the people behind Qi Niang, with doubts on his face, "Who are these people that my sister brought?" ”

"They used to be all people from Qianjilou, and after Bian Che withdrew to Dongwu, they left Qianjilou."

Wei Zi'an didn't feel much surprised, he looked at Qi Niang and asked, "Jiang Qihan is willing to let you come?" ”

Qi Niang's eyes were dark, and she said after a long time: "He tried to stop me, but I didn't listen to his persuasion. ”

The two were silent for a while, and Wei Zi'an solemnly promised: "I will not let you encounter any danger, I will definitely let you return to the Central Plains safely." ”

Qi Niang smiled jokingly, "I'm here to help you, why do I have to be sheltered by you?" I'm so useless in Zi'an's eyes? ”

"Sister, I didn't mean that......" Wei Zi'an explained anxiously.

Qi Niang sneered and swept away the tiredness of the day, "I'll tease you, look at your sad face, things haven't reached the worst yet, as long as the people are still there and the city is still there, it's not too bad." Along the way, I came up with a plan that could help you retake a city. ”

Wei Zi'an was puzzled: "Which city is my sister talking about?" ”

"Didn't you once love the polar night? The polar night is close to the sea, the water source is sufficient, and it is still a good place to store grain by guarding the fortress of the Northern Wilderness and Dongwu, if you get that city, it will be of great benefit to the White Night City against Dongwu. ”

Wei Zi'an pondered for a moment and said: "Ruoyun also mentioned to me to attack the polar night first and regain the initiative, but the polar night is remote, and the terrain is flat and open, and it is clear that someone is close to it at a glance. ”

"It's hard for you to storm the city with great fanfare, but don't forget what your sister does." Qi Niang winked at Wei Zi'an.

Wei Zi'an refused without thinking about it: "No, I just said that I can't let my sister make sacrifices for me, I don't agree with what my sister said." Wei Zi'an twisted his eyebrows, with an expression on his face that could not be denied.

"Zi'an, I'm not done yet."

Wei Zi'an waved his hand and said categorically: "If I say no, I can't do it, I know that my sister wants to sneak into the polar night secretly and open the city gate for us, but this is too risky, I can't let my sister take such a risk because I am trapped at this time." ”

Qi Niang stared at Wei Zi'an and said seriously: "Zi'an, listen to my sister's words, I don't want to take risks, I have an absolute chance of winning to make such a decision." As long as this step is successful, the current crisis in White Night City will be resolved, believe me. ”

Wei Zi'an's face was sad, as if he was moved, right now White Night City is indeed under attack, in addition to fighting to the end, only this method can alleviate the current situation. He showed a sad expression and muttered: "When I returned to the country and became the king of White Night City, I wanted my sister to live the best life, but now I am to blame, and I want my sister to suffer for me, if I knew this, why did I bother in the first place." ”

Qi Niang shook her head, shook his hand soothingly, and said: "Sister has never blamed you, Zi'an don't blame yourself, I won't let myself have an accident, my sister promised you, but you also have to promise me one thing." ”

"What does my sister want me to promise you?"

"Promise me that when I take the polar night this time, there will be a truce, and I can't waste money anymore. The country not only needs to expand its borders to maintain its strength, but also the people and hearts of the people are equally important. Qi Niang's face was serious and solemn.

Wei Zi'an looked at her, nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you." ”

Hearing his promise, Qi Niangfang smiled and said: "Then, tomorrow I will arrange for everyone in Qianjilou to prepare, you will not move, continue to confuse the enemy audition, and when the time comes, I will release the signal." ”

"My sister just came to White Night City, let's rest for another day, there is no hurry to attack the city in advance." Wei Zi'an hoped that this day would come later, and when he thought that Qi Niang was going to face the enemy in person, he couldn't help but want to throw everything away and take her away from all this right and wrong, but he knew that he couldn't do it. He couldn't let down all the Northern Wilderness soldiers who followed him, and he couldn't leave Lan Ruoyun and his children behind.

Qi Niang saw Wei Zi'an's hesitation, and immediately said: "Zi'an, without further delay, if it drags on any longer, I don't know when Dongwu will rest enough and come to attack the city, it will be too late." ”

"Sister, I ......"

Qi Niang held Wei Zi'an's hand tightly, with the power to soothe people's hearts, as well as the belief in victory, the words were clear and powerful: "I will wait for you safe and sound." ”

Before the day arrived, the sky of the polar night had already darkened, which was different from the city of the polar night and the realm of day, and the polar night was in darkness most of the time. Because of this, in the polar night, people's defenses will also be reduced, and once darkness comes, it is the moment when the killers are most murderous. This was Qi Niang's first action when she left Qianji Building, and she did not allow herself to fail.

The unpredictable environment of the polar night creates a perfect opportunity for her. She and several killers successfully infiltrated the realm of the polar night. It is better to say that Polar Night is a city, but it is a huge barracks. Twilight Cloud sits here, supplying food and grass to the army in Dongwu. If Dongwu's grain and grass can be cut off, Dongwu will not dare to attack again. After all, after half a year of fighting, no matter how powerful a country is, there will be a time when there is a shortage of troops and food, not to mention that Dongwu has experienced the battle for the crown prince and has not yet stabilized.

Tonight is windless and moonless, and it is exceptionally cold. The silent camp occasionally heard the snoring of horses, no different from usual. Twilight came out of the tent, stretched wide, yawned lazily, and glanced in the direction of the stables, where a dark shadow seemed to flash in the distance, and Twilight thought she hadn't woken up and opened her eyes, but she saw nothing.

"Polar Night, this ghost place, why is it dark so early, sleepy." Twilight muttered something in the silence of the night, then raised her hand and yawned again, making sure nothing unusual was going back to the barracks.

The next day, however, the soldiers came in a panic to report that all the horses in the camp had died. Twilight quickly stood up from the thick blanket that was comfortable and warm, her eyes widening, "All dead?" How did you die?! ”

"The subordinates didn't know, but the subordinates went to feed the horses this morning, only to find that the horses had fallen, as if they had been poisoned."

Twilight sat down in his chair with an unbelievable expression on his face, and he suddenly remembered the strange snoring sound he had heard last night, and the black shadow that had disappeared in a flash, but it was not an illusion. He thumped the table with remorse, and the soldier shuddered.

"I'm so angry, who the hell is it, actually sneaking into the camp and poisoning it! What are you still doing in a daze, go check it out! If I catch him, see how he dies! Twilight gritted his teeth, no one had ever dared to play tricks under his nose.

But after a day of searching, no one found out why, and there was no sign of trespassing in the camp. Twilight ordered people to be on guard that day, and not even a single fly was allowed to fly in. However, it was impossible to prevent it, and on the second day, the barracks where the prisoners of war were held in the Northern Wilderness suddenly caught fire, and after the soldiers extinguished the fire, the barracks had been burned to black, and all the people inside were gone, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.

Twilight jumped to her feet in anger and ordered someone to thoroughly investigate all suspicious objects outside the camp, only to find that in the river behind the camp, there were several huge wooden barrels floating in the direction of the river, which was the White Night City. Because of the cold weather in the Northern Wilderness, the residents will drink spirits to warm up, so there are many wooden barrels used to make wine in the town. It seems that someone infiltrated the camp to rescue the hostages of the Northern Wilderness, and then used the direction of the river to send them back to White Night City.

The camp was so heavily guarded, this man who could enter and leave the camp freely without being detected, and even rescued so many hostages silently, must be a master at hiding his whereabouts. Perhaps, there is more than one person.

He had to inform Gong Xiheng of this matter immediately. As Twilight was pondering, there were several sounds of falling to the ground outside the tent, and Twilight walked out vigilantly, and as soon as he reached the tent, he slowly retreated again.

Across his neck was a knife that shone with moon-white light. A man in black slowly pushes Twilight into the tent.

"Ye Qiniang." Twilight calls out the name in surprise.

Qi Niang's eyes were cold, and she said: "You recognize the wrong person, my surname is Miao, not Ye." ”

Twilight looked at her with a fearless smile, "I really didn't expect it to be you, do you know who led the army to attack the Daylight Realm this time?" ”
