Chapter 1070: Night is coming
At night, there is no wind.
Dotted with stars, the moonlight is bright, and the silver-white moonlight weaves into an endless net, shrouding the vast land in a soft orange shimmer, which is very quiet.
Outside the south gate of Qianzhou City, there is no wind and grass at all, only the crickets under the stones are noisy, and the frogs in the grass are sounding, which adds a bit of peace and nature to this quiet night.
Upstairs at the South Gate, Guo Ye stretched his waist and yawned lazily involuntarily, looking a little sleepy.
Pang Feihu whispered: "Little brother, it is estimated that the bandit army will not come to attack the city tonight, so it is better for you to go back and rest first." ”
Kang Bao also said: "Yes, there are several reinforcements during the day, and it stands to reason that they should start attacking the city with a large number of people." But they didn't do it for a long time, and there has been no movement until now, this rabble is really a bunch of cowards. Brother-in-law, you can go back and rest first, there are a few of us watching from the upper floor of this city. In addition, the area outside the south gate within a radius of one mile is arranged with mine arrays. I agree with Flying Tiger's statement that the bandit army will not come to attack the city tonight. You don't have to spend time here. ”
Guo Ye shook his head lightly and smiled slightly, did not listen to the persuasion of Pang Feihu and Kang Bao, but turned his head and asked Cheng Erniu: "Erniu, I asked you to patrol in the area one mile away from the south gate during the day, did you find anything different?" ”
"Yes!"
Cheng Erniu replied very firmly: "Every hour or so, the White Lotus Bandit Army will send a group of rangers to investigate the situation at the South Gate. It's not a day or two, it's a few days in a row, and it's only an hour apart, it's steady, it's hardly staggered. ”
"And what about tonight? I mean, after dark, until now...... Let me see what time it is. ”
Guo Ye looked at the starry sky and the night above his head, made a rough estimate, and said, "It's about time now, and several hours have passed. Did the White Lotus bandit army send a ranger to fight the outpost? ”
"Well, that's not true!"
Cheng Erniu still replied very firmly: "I'm also wondering about this, the night before yesterday was the same as today's daytime, basically every hour there will be a group of rangers coming over to patrol and investigate the situation." Tonight is really wicked! Hey? Brother-in-law, I seem to understand, you mean......"
"Tonight, the bandits have made a move!"
Someone said the last half of the sentence for Cheng Erniu, but it was not Guo Ye, but Cao Luxun, the black-armored Xuanbing lieutenant general who had never said anything.
"The bandits are going to attack the city tonight?"
"How is this possible? Hasn't it always been peaceful? ”
Pang Feihu and Kang Bao questioned one after another.
Guo Ye shook his head with a smile and looked at Ruan Laosan and Zhu Fatzi, who were a little dozing not far away, and shouted, "Hey, don't sleep, what do you think?" ”
"Huh?"
"Yawn!"
The two of them were shouted at by Guo Ye like this, and they suddenly got up completely from their half-asleep and half-awake, and then shook their heads together and replied in unison: "How can there be any action?" At this point, not to mention that there is no bandit army within one mile, even five miles away, it is estimated that the ghost of the White Lotus bandit army cannot be seen. ”
Guo Ye saw that most of the people thought that the bandit army would not attack the city tonight, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed in his heart, and the tense nerves of these days were relaxed again, and it seemed that the big guys were tired and paralyzed.
Immediately, his face turned straight and he said softly: "It seems that among you people, Cao Luxun is still awake." Where is this all the calm? Don't you think this atmosphere is weird? The moment before dawn is the darkest, and in the same way, the storm is the most turbulent time before the stormy seas. Hehe, don't believe it, let's see! ”
Guo Ye had just left the ground with these words, and before he had taken two breaths, he suddenly heard Xue Rengui, who was standing on the top of the city tower looking out, shouting: "It's not good, there is a situation!" ”
Pong~
Xue Rengui moved with the sound, and as soon as the voice reached the ears of Guo Ye and the others, he jumped off the top platform and rushed towards Guo Ye's side, and burst out a sentence that immediately verified Guo Ye's analysis just now: "Report to my lord, there is a large bandit army five miles away, and the number of bandits is unpredictable, but the black and black pressure is not endless, it should be a nest dispatch." ”
Rumble~
As soon as Xue Rengui said this, the faces of everyone present suddenly changed color, Pang Feihu, Kang Bao and others had already run away, constantly thinking about the orders of the captains under their respective commands:
"The bandit army is attacking the city, on alert, on alert!"
"The enemy attacked, and ordered all the soldiers to cheer up and prepare to meet the enemy!"
……
For a while, the city tower was extremely nervous, and immediately entered a state of preparation without saying anything.
However, Guo Yewan smiled, his expression was extremely calm, and he chuckled lightly: "Feihu and Kang Bao were dead ducks just now, you see, I guessed it, right?" Although I don't know if the bandit armies from all walks of life have been gathered, it is certain that they can't hold it back! ”
As he spoke, he found that everyone present looked like they were facing a great enemy, and he couldn't help waving his hand and shaking his head: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, no one is allowed to make a counterattack." Bring me closer, at least put the vanguard of the bandit army into the minefield we have laid. Don't forget, in this battle, we have a minefield within a radius of one mile outside the south gate to deal with it. ”
After saying that, he glanced at Xue Rengui, then pointed to the iron-tired bow that Xue Rengui was carrying behind his back, and ordered in a deep voice: "Rengui, find a commanding height, and find the fuse used to detonate the mine array." As for whether the rocket can hit with one hit, it depends on whether you Xue Rengui really wears through Yang in a hundred steps, and the example is not in vain! ”
"Gotcha!"
Xue Rengui took off the iron tire bow on his back, raised it in his hand, and replied with confidence: "My lord, you just look at it, if you don't detonate this minefield, don't detonate these dogs. If my mother sends it to heaven, you will screw off my head and make it a pot for the night. ”
After saying that, he beckoned to the two soldiers and called, "You two come with me, and prepare the rockets for me at any time." ”
As soon as Xue Rengui took people away, Guo Ye smiled again and reassured everyone: "The big guy will be working hard tonight, let's wait for Xue Rengui's performance." Flying Tiger, Lao San, Kang Bao...... Don't be busy, let your brethren relax and appreciate the minefield that the Steward has set up for us. By the way, tell the timid brother that once a minefield is detonated in a while, remember to cover your ears and be careful not to be shocked into deafness. ”
Guo Ye said casually and freely, and then he no longer paid attention to the people next to him, but stared at the outside of the city without blinking, waiting for the siege bandit army to slowly approach.
Wuli,
Four miles,
Sanli,
Erli,
I saw it, I appeared, grandma's, it's really a big piece of black and black, and I can't see the end at a glance, looking at the posture of the troops, why are there hundreds of thousands of people, right?
It's a pity, Guo Ye secretly thought about a pity, it's a pity that this minefield is arranged small, if a minefield with a radius of ten miles is arranged, how can you kill some more bandits?
Of course, given the current stock of thunderbolts, this kind of thing can only be imagined.
Suddenly, Guo Ye found that the bandit army was within a radius of one mile, and stopped, as if he was no longer advancing.
Day...... What's going on?
……
……
One mile away from the south gate, the three brothers of the Yu family and Zhao Youxin actually disagreed and quarreled, causing the entire army to stagnate.
The reason for the dispute is very simple, the three brothers of the Yu family want to take the lead in breaking Qianzhou City and win the first merit of breaking the city and winning the treasure, hoping to occupy a greater voice in the three major families of Guanlong in the future. And, of course, for an extra piece of the pie.
And the reason why Zhao Youxin wanted to lead his 50,000 White Lotus Protector Army to be the vanguard of the city knocking troops was relatively simple, just to avenge his son, and he didn't want Guo Ye's dog thief to be killed by mistake after the city was broken and lose the opportunity to kill the enemy.
Each has its own little ninety-nine, and it was stalemate for a while.
In the end, Zhao Youxin relied on the old man and sold the old, pulled out Yu Jingde, the son of the three brothers of the Yu family, and angrily reprimanded: "The juniors of the Yu family are now capable? I really regard the old man as nothing, do you still have me, the patriarch of the Zhao family, in your eyes? Don't talk about you, even your Lao Tzu Yu Jingde is here, he has to respect me for three points. Today, this old man is decided, and no one wants to snatch the opportunity to kill the enemy from the old man! ”
Nima's!
Stinky and shameless!
The older you get, the more shameless you are!
This is the first time that the three brothers of the Yu family experienced and felt in their hearts after listening to Zhao Youxin's words.
This Zhao Youxin obviously relied on the old and sold the old in order to take the lead first, and in the end, even the father of the three brothers moved out.
When Zhao Youxin said this, the three brothers were speechless for a while, and they couldn't say a reason for a long time. Because in the face of this Zhao Youxin, who was blinded by hatred, so much so that he didn't even want the face of the head of the clan, the three brothers couldn't find a reason to refute him.
In the end, the three brothers, you look at me, I look at you, I can only admit that I am unlucky, and I bumped into such an old guy who relies on the old and sells the old to compete with the juniors for profit.
Seeing the compromise between the three brothers, Zhao Youxin immediately secretly rejoiced, and hurriedly led his 50,000 White Lotus Protector Army to advance again, heading straight for the south gate.
From beginning to end, as Zhao Youxin led the 50,000 bandit army forward, not a single bow or arrow was spared on the city tower, which not only did not arouse Zhao Youxin's suspicion, but also contributed to his carelessness of underestimating the enemy.
In the blink of an eye, half of the 50,000 bandits had already entered the minefield.
In a short time, more than half of the 50,000 people were already in the minefield.
After a while, almost all of the 50,000 bandit troops pressed in, completely sinking into the minefield of the minefield.
Seeing, in a few breaths, the bandit army at the forefront was about to start ramming the closed city gate at the south gate.
Above the city tower, Guo Ye suddenly felt his heart pinch and yelled at Xue Rengui, who was already squatting at the commanding heights:
"Xue Rengui, what the hell are you kid doing?"
"My lord, don't be impatient!"
Xue Rengui replied while holding his bow and aiming at the fuse exposed in the mine array with a rocket: "There are still hundreds of bandits who have not entered the minefield?" ”
"Am I grass? At this time, you are playing calm with Lao Tzu? ”
Guo Ye scolded angrily: "Fifty thousand people have entered the minefield, are there still a few hundred people?" You are very good, hurry up and light the fuse for Lao Tzu's arrow, and detonate the mine array for Lao Tzu immediately!! ”
Pinch~~~
A loud roar came from Xue Rengui's side, and I saw that Xue Rengui's fingers holding the bowstring were loosened, and a rocket suddenly broke out of the string and flew towards the city tower like a fire meteor.
Above the city, in the face of a sudden rush of 50,000 people, only a rocket was fired to counterattack.
This arrow was not only particularly dazzling and eye-catching, but also aroused the bewilderment and confusion of the three brothers of the Yu family a mile away......
Could it be that the defenders of the city tower are still thinking of using an ordinary rocket to destroy Zhao Youxin's 50,000 protectors?
This is a grotesque idea that instantly arises in the hearts of the three brothers of the Yu family when the rocket breaks out of the string and marks a fire mark in the air.
