Chapter 606: Tremors

Zhong Shanwei's soldiers basically slept with swords and guns on the city wall at night, and no one was willing to defend the city.

Today is different, leaning on the city wall with knives and guns one by one, but they are complaining in their hearts.

Although they complained, no one dared to be lazy to sleep, because there were hundreds and thousands of households patrolling the city walls.

It's true.

Not only did the hundred and thousand households inspect the city wall, but even the commander also took his own soldiers to the city wall, and they didn't even dare to fight at this time.

After Zhao Yong had dinner, he personally brought his own soldiers to inspect the city wall, and now he must show his attitude, and then he can plead with the Third Highness No.

Zhao Yong inspected the city wall with a sinking face, and he didn't go back until late, because he couldn't sleep when he went back now.

Therefore, Zhao Yong stayed on the city wall and did not leave, hoping that his performance today could reach the ears of the third prince.

Because Zhao Yong has been patrolling the city wall, all the soldiers don't dare to fight one by one, and this taste is not mentioned.

They knew in their hearts that they didn't want to sleep secretly tonight, but they didn't want the commander to keep wandering around the city wall, it was too depressing.

Qianhu, who was on duty tonight, said respectfully: "My lord, you better go back and rest, don't worry, no one will slack off!" ”

Zhao Yong was a little hesitant when he heard this, it was already the middle of the night, there was no need to stay up all night, just when he was about to speak, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves.

Seeing that there were black shadows in the city rushing towards the city tower, Zhao Yong immediately felt in his heart, it must be the third prince who is coming.

Zhao Yong was very glad that he came to inspect tonight, and he was glad that he didn't leave early, but he didn't expect the third prince to come so late!

Fortunately, he was also on patrol, fortunately, all the soldiers cheered up, and Zhao Yong was even a little surprised in his heart, he could be regarded as a good performance in front of His Highness.

Zhao Yong hurriedly greeted him, and when he was halfway through, Tang Ning had already climbed the stairs, and Zhao Yong hurriedly saluted: "See Your Highness!" ”

Seeing that Zhao Yong was still on the city tower so late, Tang Ning was also a little surprised, it seems that his shock today really worked.

Tang Ning's complexion also softened a lot, and he asked, "There's no movement outside the city, right?" ”

How could there be movement outside the city? However, seeing that His Highness's expression eased a lot, he was also a little relieved, and hurriedly said: "Back to Your Highness, I haven't found any hostility for the time being, the soldiers on the city wall have been staring, and they don't dare to be careless, and the soldiers of the guard are also waiting for you, please rest assured." ”

Tang Ning nodded and said, "Okay, that's right, this palace also knows that you don't think there are any bandits around, and there will be no bandits to attack the city." ”

"However, there are sources in the main palace in this palace, and although it is not very certain that there will be bandits to attack the city, there are also seven or eight points certain."

"So let's be cautious, it's better if there are no bandits to attack the city, if there are really bandits to attack the city, once Zhongshan City is lost, you should know what the consequences are, on the contrary, if we have precautions and defend the city, then you have made a great contribution."

Zhao Yong hurriedly bowed down and said: "The lower official understands, the lower official has already understood His Highness's hard work, please rest assured, the lower official must obey His Highness's orders." ”

Tang Ning climbed the city tower, and sure enough, he found that the soldiers on the city wall were looking at the vast night sky outside the city very energetically.

Tang Ning inspected the city tower, and Zhao Yong followed step by step. The soldiers on the city wall also saw the commander and the envoy following closely behind a young man, and knew in their hearts that that person must be His Royal Highness the Third Prince.

They couldn't help but slander and complain in their hearts, the world has been peaceful for a long time, there has never been any war, and it is not a northwest border town, where is the need to defend the city like this?

Tang Ning inspected all the way, although the soldiers guarding the city were very vigilant, but he was actually very disappointed in his heart, because the equipment on the city tower was useless.

The trebuchet was useless, the bow and arrow were missing, and there was nothing else on the city wall except for some stones, Tang Ning couldn't help but shake his head, how could he defend the city like this?

It seems that Liu Siwei didn't take his words seriously, it seems that Liu Siwei will have to be beaten tomorrow, and the siege equipment that should be prepared must be prepared.

Downing looked around, and as he was about to leave, he seemed to pause suddenly, as he felt the walls tremble slightly.

Not only Tang Ning, but Mingyue, Xiao Twelve and others also changed color, they had been to Shuozhou and the grassland with Tang Ning, and they were already very familiar with this tremor.

This is a sign that the cavalry is coming.

Tang Ning's face suddenly became solemn, could the cavalry of the temple come so quickly? It's just at this juncture?

Even if you give him another day, there are no tools on the city wall to defend the city, so give him a day to set it up!

Tang Ning frowned slightly and said, "Do you feel it?" ”

Xiao Twelve's face was equally solemn, and he nodded: "I feel it, the city wall is trembling, that's right, this is a sign of an attack by cavalry!" ”

Mingyue also said solemnly: "I didn't expect to come so soon!" ”

The guards behind Tang Ning also nodded, and they were all masters who also felt it.

Zhao Yong on the side was stunned, and the city wall was trembling? Just kidding, right? How can there be tremors? Why didn't he feel it at all?

Also a sign of an incoming cavalry attack? That's, isn't it? When did the bandits still have so many cavalry? That's too much to look at bandits, right?

Although Zhao Yong felt very ridiculous, the faces of these people were very solemn, and they didn't look like they were joking at all, so Zhao Yong felt a little confused.

Tang Ning resolutely turned around and ordered: "Zhao Yong, the enemy is attacking, sound the gong to warn!" ”

Zhao Yong stammered: "Your Highness, is there really a cavalry attack?" How could a bandit have cavalry? ”

Of course, there can be no cavalry for bandits, but there are cavalry in the temple! Tang Ning said in a deep voice: "Of course, it is impossible for the bandits to have cavalry, what if the bandits are pretending?" They're coming for Hongu! Don't be verbose, hurry up and sound the gong to warn, and prepare to defend the city! ”

A bandit in disguise? Coming for the Three Princes? Zhao Yong is not stupid, his brain exploded with a bang, Chu Zheng!

No wonder His Royal Highness knew that there were no bandits nearby, and firmly said that there would be bandits to attack the city. Someone is going to kill the Third Highness!

I just don't know if it was arranged by His Royal Highness or His Second Highness, and he didn't have time to think about it at this time. Zhao Yong shouted at the top of his voice: "Enemy attack, enemy attack, quickly, sound the gong to warn!" Sound the gong to warn! ”

Zhao Yong shouted while running, in fact, he was also nervous and anxious, he had never fought in his life, and he suddenly started fighting, and he was not mentally prepared at all.
