The total number of mobilized Nolan City troops is about 20,000, of which 10,000 are real elites, and the others are at most recruits, but they are interspersed in the army in a one-to-one ratio, and they are also improving the combat experience of recruits very quickly.

Renzogt is just a kingdom, and its military strength is not very strong, even if it is a key pass town, the permanent army is only more than 10,000.

But in the past, even if there were only 10,000 defenders, it would be delusional to capture the city built on the mountain and stuck in the choke point of the road, without five to ten times the number of troops.

In front of Kinit Gorge, after careful reconnaissance by the scout cavalry to confirm that there was no ambush, the whole army passed through the not wide canyon and reached a remote mountain pass.

"Great, my lord, after walking for half a day after the mountain pass, you can see the Dieter Rock Guancheng... I really, really can't go with you anymore!Please give me freedom!!"

While the army was recuperating, the guide approached Heno and Brantey, and begged Heno to let him go.

Heno was observing the surrounding mountains.

There was no howling of animals, no birds, and all the quiet and eerie, and if they hadn't sent scouts again and again to make sure that there was no ambush, they wouldn't have dared to come through that canyon.

As if knowing what his father was thinking, Blantai took a sip of the water in the water bag and said:

"It's taking refuge from disasters, the animals around you are taking refuge from disasters, wild beasts, birds, reptiles... All of them, and I've read a similar account in a book, that wild beasts and birds can foreshadow terrible disasters, and many tend to start fleeing early. ”

The surrounding soldiers were also silent to drink water or eat some bread to replenish their strength, only thinking of chattering and begging.

Heno nodded to Brantet.

"Looks like you're right!"

Then turn to face the guide.

"Mr. Tinman, your work is over, we already have a sufficiently detailed map for the road after that, and the rest of the payment, do you want money or food?"

The guide stood up from his knees in surprise.

"Food!!I want food!!My lord!Give me another camel if you can!!"

"Okay, I'll arrange it, and these things will definitely be delivered to your family safely. ”

Heno nodded, waving his hand to signal that he could leave.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, sir!!Thank you!!"

The guide bowed step by step and slowly retreated to leave, but what the big nobleman said just now was a little strange, maybe it was the speaking problem of the Qinggele Empire.

Brantey watched as the guide followed the guards and disappeared from sight.

"Father, in fact, we ......"

"I know what you're trying to say, but my son, please remember that the eyes we have on our heads don't allow us to make a single mistake!"

Heno squinted in the direction of Seki Castle and continued:

"Others can do anything for their families, and so do I!"

Sighing softly, Brantey didn't continue.

After more than half an hour, the army marched out, and two personal guards cavalry led a camel horse full of food, and returned along the way they came.

The camel's excellent weight-bearing capacity makes it full of grain.

However, there was no sign of the guide.

。。。

It was noon, and the city was overcrowded with people inside and outside the city.

The large number of refugees crowded into this location to flee to the hinterland of the empire was a headache for the garrison, who had received information about the invasion of the Zingle Empire.

But in this situation, it is simply difficult to raise a defense, and the number of victims is twenty or thirty times that of the army, and there are still converging unless they can close the gates and prevent them from passing.

Such an order was not given casually, and the generals defending the city had to constantly send scouts outward, in order to prepare for defense at a critical moment.

However, it is clear that he overestimated the scouts of Dieter Rock Pass, and the exclusive explorers of Nolan City are the best at mountain warfare and exploration, and after being recruited as soldiers, they are significantly higher than the scouts of Ditter Rock Pass.

So by the time the refugees on the periphery began to riot in the afternoon, it was already too late.

"Rumble Rumble ......"

The sound of horses' hooves rang out, and Heno, as a powerful cultivator, took the lead in shouting.

"Rush!!Kill directly from the city gate!The first person to enter the city will be rewarded with the title of knight!"

"Drink!!" "Hah!!"

.....

The cavalry followed the infantry in front and drove the victims to the side, while others slashed and killed those who stood in their way, so as to scare the victims in front of them into giving way or fleeing directly in the direction of the city gate.

At the gate of the city, dozens of soldiers desperately pushed the crowd out, and it was impossible for all the victims to come in.

"Heap !!" and "!! hard"

"No!!" "Don't close the door!!"

"Ah!!" "Hurry up and push !!" "They're coming!!"

"Let's go in!!" "We're going to die outside!!"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!!! No one can run away when the city is broken, get out of the way at the gate of the city!!

......

There was chaos at the gates, and the rush of the victims blocked the entrance to the city, and there was no room for the garrison to close the gates, only the bows and arrows on the walls could stop the invaders a little.

However, due to the large number of victims mixed in, these soldiers threw themselves into the trap.

As the Zingle Empire's troops approached, the place was quickly dyed red.

The sound of the clash of weapons, the screams of the dying people, the frightened shouts of the soldiers, the neighing of the horses......

The fighting and chaos in front of the city gate continued.

Although there is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the difficulty of the attack is still not small, a large number of victims are not only a burden to the other side, but also have a great impact on their own side, and there is no lack of bloody civilians who pick up weapons to help their own troops resist.

Even Heno was exhausted, and the will of the soldiers and civilians here to resist was far more tenacious than the ones they had encountered before.

After about two hours, the blood-stained soldiers noticed that the energy around them continued to decrease.

It was getting dark......

A dense "buzzing ......" seemed to shake the air and tickle everyone's ears.

The battle subconsciously stopped, and even Heno and Branthai couldn't help but look up in the direction of the sky, just like everyone else.

A black "curtain" obscured the sky, gradually moving from behind, and the light of the Solar Star was constantly covered.

The sound of "buzzing ......" is getting louder and louder.

Before the daylight had completely disappeared, it was a yellowish-gray patch!

In the following minutes, Guancheng and even the entire mountain range were completely plunged into darkness that could not be seen.

Fear pervades everyone!

"It's... It's a yellow-gray demon......."

Brantey trembled slightly, his heart was cold and sweating outside his body, this scene was like the end of the world.

But at this moment, the crystal accessories on the chest emitted bursts of warmth to warm the body and spirit, dispelling the chill on the stiff flesh.

He subconsciously pulled the crystal accessory out of his armor, and found that it was emitting a faint but absolutely conspicuous white light at the moment.

In the distance, several inconspicuous refugees also stared at the sky in distraction, and the appearance of the light source made them subconsciously look in the direction of Blantai.

Then they were collectively stunned, and the fists in their hands were subconsciously clenched.

"Is this the crystal described by Lord Sword Saint?I didn't expect that there was no news about the person who infiltrated Qinggel, but it was first encountered by those of us who investigated the yellow-gray demon!"

The eldest of them drew a dagger from his cuff.

"You can't be wrong, we don't have this kind of treasure in our world!"

He looked at his companions around him, and knew what their expressions were, even if they couldn't see their faces clearly.

"Absolutely at all costs, must get it!! absolutely must get it!!"

"Yes!" "Yes!!"......
