It's the second half of the night. Tonight's last quarter moon is slowly obscured by clouds.

Outside the west city gate, the rain of arrows was no longer in unison, and the Pingnan army smashed it with random stones, even ignoring the safety of the few gate-breaking pioneers who were still fainting under the city gate.

The guards at the west gate ran and extinguished all the lights according to Kuang Yu's orders, leaving only the three beacons that warned at the tower peak in the distance.

The castle tower was plunged into darkness.

For Ping Nanjun, this is equivalent to being turned off in a bright room.

The eyes are not immediately accustomed to the exchange of light and dark.

The rocks that had been heading towards the fire immediately lost their heads.

The Pingnan Army, which had used the lights of the city tower to illuminate itself, had to light torches on their own.

"Don't panic, everyone! Far away, no one upstairs can see us, just throw stones in an all-round way! ”

There were not many torches, but they stood in the middle of the military formation, and from the castle tower, only the surrounding area with torches could be faintly seen crowded.

It is indeed impossible to see the whole picture of the Pingnan Army clearly.

The sound of aerial launches and rolling rocks falling on the ground is constantly alternating.

It's so clear that it's a little weird.

The Pingnan Army gradually discovered the anomaly.

There was no more snoring upstairs, and there was no sound of breaking wind in my ears.

The Luohe Army stopped attacking?!

The leading lieutenant waved his hand and signaled a halt to the attack.

As soon as their catapults stopped, silence fell all around.

On the other side of the high wall, it looked like an empty city.

In such a dark and silent environment, Pingnanjun stared ahead with bated breath.

"Look there!"

I don't know who shouted, everyone looked at the wall together, and a star-sized fire core seemed to be hanging in the air, desperately climbing up.

What is this for? It can't be that you are going to blow up your own castle tower.

The small core of fire went up along the lead, and it jumped to the top, and when it heard a boom, the fire was wanton, and it burned into a huge fireball.

What to play...... The people who saw it didn't think about it yet, and after seeing the true body of the fireball, they lost their voices and pulled the people next to them, and retreated in horror.

A huge fire crossbow shone up the heavens and the earth, and the flames soared into the sky, rolling tongues of fire towards them.

The tip of the crossbow was soaked in oil, and the fire lasted for a long time.

"Withdraw ......" The captain finally saw the situation clearly and shouted, "Withdraw!" Evacuate me! ”

As soon as these words came out, they heard the wind howling, and the fire crossbow shot straight at them.

It's too late.

"Get down and hide in the snow!"

The Pingnan army lay down one after another, and before they could bury themselves in the snow, they saw the fire crossbow pass over their heads and go backwards.

Missed?

That's followed by ......

Pingnan military forest station!

The Luohe army is going to burn the camp and destroy the grain, cutting off their back road!!

The arrow crossbow was stuck straight into the forest ground, and in an instant, the fire from the arrow climbed up the forest, and it burned fiercely.

"Extinguish the fire!"

The military order woke up the stunned soldiers of the Pingnan Army, and everyone went forward and went to the forest one after another.

"Boom!"

Another one fell before their eyes.

"Boom!"

Fire crossbows were scattered all over the forest, and in front of the Pingnan army, the western suburbs of the wooden forest fell into a sea of fire.

They were afraid of freezing people at night, so they deliberately shoveled the snow around the tent. Now it is fueling the fire, and it is burning more and more.

"Ladies and gentlemen of the Pingnan Army."

There was an amplified greeting from behind, loud and smiling. It was as if I could see the corners of the speaker's mouth raised at the moment.

"It's cold, roast a fire for everyone."

Laughter ensued.

The soldiers of the Pingnan Army turned back one by one with anger, only to find that they could not see the appearance of the speaker upstairs at all.

The situation has been reversed.

"Boom!"

Someone fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

Missed an arrow in the chest.

"Boom!"

The comrades on the side also fell, and their necks were pierced back and forth by arrows.

"Knock knock!!"

The sound of falling to the ground one after another, endlessly.

"I'm not the only one who will release the arrows."

The arrogant prompt sound from upstairs came, and everyone's hearts were shocked. They didn't have time to think about it at all, the dense sound of breaking wind had already crossed their ears, and the Luohe army began to fight back strongly.

"Withdraw ——!"

The horn of retreat sounded, and the Pingnan army was scattered.

There was a lot of laughter on the upper floor of Xicheng, sneering at the Pingnan army that was like a rat, suppressing their fighting spirit.

"Lord Kuang, do you want to chase it?" The soldier on the side asked happily. He had just helped push the giant crossbow out together, and at this moment he felt that his confidence had been greatly increased, and the army of King Pingnan was nothing more than that.

"Still want to chase?" Kuang Yu knocked on people's heads, "The plague in the city, really wants to spread outside the city and spread all over the country?" ”

"They were the ones who fell first!"

"Okay, clear the field and reorganize the troops first, so many people are still waiting for you to defend it."

These men had come from the Archery Battalion to serve as archers in the city guards. I am very familiar with Kuang Yu, and secretly recognizes Kuang Yu as half an archery master.

When Xue An rushed back to the west of the city to spread the good news from the east gate, Kuang Yu was holding Jiang Linglong and preparing to get into the car.

Seeing Xue An coming, he didn't ask why an assassin from the Xuan Ghost Camp would come and go freely in the city, but only turned his head and let him drive.

"It's just in time, go back to the Palace of Nothing."

When he was half asleep and half awake, he could hear Jiang Linglong and Xue An talking. As for whether Xue An was sincere in surrendering, the expression on his face when he came with Jiejie already explained everything.

and subtle self-control when he saw the unconscious lord of Shaohua.

In the Cuiluan Palace, Jiang Linglong drank medicine and woke up. A pair of familiar eyes were coming in front of her.

Then I heard her stomach growl.

“…… I am hungry. She was a little embarrassed.

"It's time for Duyin," Su Jinyu handed the food to her, "I should have been hungry a long time ago." ”

The blessing of Tonon's words, he had to sleep for a while, and he was in good spirits at the moment.

Jiang Linglong took the bowl and spoon and looked around, "What about Kuang Yu and He Youran?" Xue An is not here either? ”

In front of her, there were only Su Jinyu, Nong Yu, Orange Yue, and Yunjin mother and son.

"The master and Dr. He have gone to the camp. When Lu Tao heard about the siege of the city by the Pingnan Army, he also asked for orders to follow him. Su Jinyu muttered, "I want to go too, but the master won't let me and wants me to guard here." After speaking, he remembered again and pointed to the inside, "Xue An is in it to make up for sleep." ”

Jiang Linglong bowed her head and asked again, "The medicine is ready?" ”

She felt that she was still feverish, but her consciousness was quite clear and she had some strength. Thinking that Laihe leisurely went to the camp, he should have gone to deliver medicine.

Su Jinyu nodded and shook her head again.

"Dr. He said that there is no antidote, but this medicine can gradually reduce the symptoms, help delay time, and continue life." He was afraid that Jiang Linglong would be disappointed, so he hurriedly said, "This way he has time to continue the formula." ”

After Jiang Linglong listened, she asked Su Jinyu to open the door of the palace again.

He did so.

Outside the palace gate, the palace wall is quiet, but there is gray smoke rising slowly in the left corner of the sky.

It was the battalion burning corpses.

There are still people who can't wait.

Jiang Linglong held the bowl in one hand and lifted the quilt in the other hand and wanted to go to the ground.

Orange Moon stopped, "Master, master, didn't you say you're hungry?" Eat something first. ”

Su Jinyu pushed Nong Yu and added on the side, "Madam, don't make other plans." The master has instructed you to go to bed after eating, and you are not allowed to get up until noon. ”

Jiang Linglong laughed angrily, "Then what if I woke up early?" ”

"Then close your eyes and rest your mind." He clasped his arms in his hands, and his righteousness was awe-inspiring.
