The sun was shining, and the sound of fighting shook the sky.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A roar came from all over the city wall, and even if you were hiding in the innermost room of Yecheng, you could hear it.

"Kill!"

On the city wall, a soldier of the Zhao State lifted a stone and wanted to throw it down, but when he came to the edge of the city wall, he noticed that the Xuanjia army below was scattered and there were almost no targets.

Then, with a flick of his wrist, the stone fell, and the whole person fell backwards, but he was exhausted.

He fell to the ground, the scorching sun shining on his face, and suddenly he felt a pain in his cheeks, hunger and thirst in his mouth, and the fear in his heart exploded even more irrepressibly.

Turning his head to look around, he saw soldiers similar to him, many of them lying on the ground, still wounded, struggling, and farther away, on the edge of the city wall stood several spears, wearing skulls on them.

He knew who the owners of those heads were, they were all the patriarchs of the big clans in the city, and they were powerful and powerful on weekdays, and in the end, they were connected together, planning to betray the king, but they were discovered by secret agents and directly connected to the nest.

It was heard that not only this group of people was plotting that night, but there were several other groups, but none of them could escape, and all of them were killed on the spot, and early in the morning, the heads were hung on the wall.

But immediately after, the Xuanjia army outside the city began to attack, and those cannons roared, and the cannonballs burst through the outer city walls.

However, when Yecheng was built, the power of Youzhou artillery was taken into account, so it was built into three floors, supporting each other, so when many cannonballs hit the city wall, the wall shook, the outer layer peeled off, but there were still two layers inside barely on top.

It was only after a few rounds of artillery fire that the city walls in the north and east still collapsed one after another, revealing a huge gap, and were attacked by the Xuanjia army.

After a few years of not doing anything, the power of the Xuanjia Army is still amazing, almost all of them are holding a black pipe, the pipe sprays thunder, and the people in front of them fall in response, which can be described as terrifying.

What's even more shocking is that the armor on those Xuanjia soldiers looks very thin, but when the knife is cut and the spear is pierced, it can't be broken, and at most those soldiers can only be blunt injured.

Everyone saw that this was okay, this was almost invulnerable, plus those black pipes were separated by a few steps, and as soon as the tubes came, the thunder burst out, and the people here fell, and they couldn't resist it at all.

Therefore, some people have learned well, run to the city wall, take the objects and tools that were originally guarding the city, and launch an "attack" from the city wall, so that it is safe for many of those city walls that have been breached, and almost no soldiers of the Xuanjia army will pay attention, often rushing directly into the city, and begin to divide the troops to surround them.

Because the command system and combat position of the Xuanjia Army are obviously better than those of Shi Hu's side, this rush into the city is really a tiger into the flock, invincible, and if you want to resist the offensive on the ground, you don't need to think about it at all.

It's just that once you come to the city wall, you look at it condescendingly, and the situation is different, after all, the three-story city wall, it is estimated that it is also the only one in the current northern land, although the city wall and the city gate have been breached, but there are still many footholds, which was originally a place to resist the enemy army from the outside, but now it is throwing stones into the city.

Although the black pipe of the Xuanjia Army was terrifying, it didn't seem to beat the thunder too high, so it was quite safe on the city wall, and many people were waiting here.

In fact, as the city was captured one after another, and the Xuanjia army went deep into it, the battle situation around the city wall was no longer insignificant, so there was no Xuanjia army to attack them, and they actually let these people persist to the end, so that many manpower was exhausted.

It's just that they also know very well in their hearts that what they do doesn't make much sense, because what really determines success or failure is still in the palace in the center of the city.

Even, there are many people who know in their hearts that from the very beginning of this war, there is no possibility of victory for their side!

And at this moment, in that palace, Shi Hu was sitting on his throne, looking arrogant, but at the bottom of the steps, there were no officials who had gathered here, only a few small eunuchs, and some guards who seemed to be insignificant.

Da-da-da-da!

Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the palace, and then a general in military uniform walked in quickly.

As soon as he entered, he had a sad countenance and wanted to speak.

"Someone died in battle, right?" Shi Hu didn't wait for the other party to speak, so he said lightly, "You don't need to sign up, just say where the Xuanjia Army has attacked?" ”

The general was stunned for a moment, but finally came back to his senses, knelt on the ground with his fists clenched, and said in a low voice: "The enemy army has arrived in front of the palace gate, but in an instant, they will definitely not be able to attack, and please ask the king to ......."

Bang!

Before he finished speaking, there was a cracking sound outside, and then there was a burst of shouts of killing, and the general looked behind with a frightened face, but as far as the eye could see, a group of soldiers in black armor rushed over!

"What's going on?"

His face was puzzled, because the direction of this attack was not the main gate of the palace, but from the side wall.

"It's nothing more than that the spies were buried in the palace in advance," Shi Hu was calm, but he still sat on the chair, looking at the scene in front of him condescendingly, "The secret spy department in Youzhou, that is famous far and wide, they have been immersed in development for so many years, there are rich people, my Yecheng must have been mixed in a lot of people, even among the craftsmen who built the palace at the beginning, I am afraid there are many spies, maybe there are some maps and secret passages left." ”

As soon as he said this, the generals below also understood, and thought that the one who attacked the main gate might just be covering, and the real killing move was these Xuanjia soldiers in front of him.

After figuring it out, he immediately got up, drew the long sword at his waist, and turned around to make a defensive gesture.

"Your Majesty, the last general will definitely protect you!"

"It doesn't have to be this way!" Shi Hu waved his hand, but laughed instead, "It's all at this time, what else is there to say, this Zhao Guo can't stop Xuanjia, and he can't protect a certain family, let alone you?" Put away the long sword, didn't you see that those Xuanjia soldiers didn't really come, they wouldn't do it immediately. ”

The general listened, looked around, and sure enough, he saw the soldiers who had just rushed to kill and shouted, and then they all stopped their steps and lined up in front of the palace, as if waiting for something.

The general wondered for a moment, but soon the mystery was solved.

The Xuanjia queue below suddenly parted to both sides, and a person walked out

Ran Zhan.
