The moonlight is as vast as scales, and the night is silent.

After the first siege of the city was frustrated, they took a short break and attacked again in the middle of the night.

The advance troops approached with their shields raised, and as soon as they reached the bottom of the city wall, suddenly something wet came down from above.

The smell is overwhelming!

Someone reacted and shouted in a panic, "It's fire oil!" ”

On the high wall, more than a dozen arrows soaked in cloth and dancing with flames were fired, reflecting the frightened gaze in the pupils.

Someone instinctively raised their shield to block, but the shield was also poured with fire oil, only a few muffled sounds were heard, the arrows and shields collided, and under the city wall, the fire was bright, and it instantly burned into a sea of fire.

Under the city walls, the soldiers rolled to the ground, screaming and wailing in the fire.

There was a smell of burnt meat in the air.

For a while, the city and the city were shocked, burning more than a thousand living people, this matter was unheard of, and now this kind of scene actually happened in front of his eyes, no matter who he was, his face could not help but change greatly, and his heart was cold!

The firelight suddenly illuminated the night.

Everyone was shocked!

Kangcheng won a short victory, Liu Sang's face was slightly happy, and when he caught a glimpse of Gu Rong on the side with a solemn face, he couldn't help but worry, "Girl." ”

Gu Rong just said, "Be alert." ”

It's dawn.

The oil is gone, there are not many arrows left, and there are not many troops in Kangcheng, and after these two battles, there is not much left.

She couldn't leave just like that, she finally empathized with her eldest brother, and she could finally understand why her eldest brother would rather die on the city wall than escape.

Escape?

How do you escape?

In the city, there are still orphans and widows, and the panic and anxiety of the people, who hug their families tightly, and worry day and night, whether their homes will be destroyed again, whether they will be displaced again?

The tragic situation three years ago is still vivid!

Gu Rong even felt at this moment that it was a wrong choice for her to forcibly take her eldest brother away, because now she couldn't convince herself to leave.

How did she persuade in the first place?

The city is dead, and there is hope of taking it back, but if people die, there is nothing.

Thinking of this, Gu Rong couldn't help but tense up, only to feel that her heart was suppressed for a while, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Can't go!

No refund!

Even if you die here, you will never take a step back!

Fang Xu was patrolling, and a few merchants were pulling carriages, and when they saw him, they shouted eagerly, "My lord! My lord! ”

Fang Xu ordered the soldiers to continue patrolling forward and stopped.

"My lord, this is what a few of us rushed overnight, so we made some of them, hoping to make some modest efforts." The man lifted the black cloth from the carriage.

I saw that on the carriage, there were two carts of black powder, although it was a drop in the bucket for this battle, but it could solve the urgent need.

Fang Xu's eyes lit up, and his face showed surprise, "This"

A few people chattered, with a hint of trepidation.

Fang Xu suddenly understood that smuggling gunpowder was a felony, but the reward was extremely high, and it was not surprising that someone would take risks.

Fang Xu said, "I took it, the merits and demerits are worth it, you will transport it to the city with me." ”

When the people heard this, they instantly relaxed, nodded yes, and pulled the carriage and followed him forward.

On the road, the lights of someone's house were slightly bright, and someone pushed open the door and looked at them from a distance, their eyes were earnest and panicked.

Fang Xu was a seven-foot man, and his heart was sour when he saw it, and he almost burst into tears.

He turned his head, looked ahead, and quickened his pace.

The sky is getting brighter, the morning dawn has come, and the day is dawning.

Fang Xu ordered people to guard the black powder and hurriedly went up to the city wall.

"Girl, Brother Liu." After he clearly explained the matter of black powder, he didn't expect that Gu Rong had no joy on his face.

"Girl"

Liu Sang patted him on the shoulder, and his tone was solemn, "We have no arrows, and we have run out of oil, the next siege, black powder may be able to solve it for a while, but it can't stop so many enemy troops, the disparity in strength is too great, we can't hold it." ”

Can't hold it?

The bottom of the three people's hearts is like a thousand pounds of stone.

And the West Yuan will soon launch a third offensive.

The three of them stood beside the city wall, Liu Sang looked at the night after the beacon fire, the corpses were all over the field, full of devastation, and suddenly said, "I never thought that in the end, I would be buried with the girl." ”

Gu Rong smiled when she heard this, "The three of us don't know each other without fighting, but in just a few days, we have become friends who depend on each other for life and death." ”

Fang Xu also smiled, "Yes, it's a friend, to tell the truth, the girl is incomparably smart, and my brother really admires the two of them very much." ”

Gu Rong's smile did not disperse.

Liu Sang looked at it, in the shimmer of spring, Gu Rong's smile was shallow, and she was extremely good-looking.

He chimed in softly, "Exactly a friend." ”

It's friends, that's enough.

"Gather your troops, and get ready for battle."

"Yes!"

Just after noon, the drums beat all over the sky.

A rain of arrows fell on the city walls.

In the city, 5,000 soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty were dressed in ironclad winter clothes, straddled horses and held guns, ready to go.

The advance troops of the Western Yuan attacked again, and the black powder of last night was thrown down, and with a rumbling explosion, someone was blown up in an instant.

The leader shouted, "Charge me!" If there is a retreat, military law will deal with it! ”

The shouts of the soldiers shook the sky.

"Rush!"

"Rush!"

"Rush!"

When morale was high, a letter soldier came to report, "General! There is a military order! ”

"Military orders?"

The letter soldier presented the secret letter, and the man opened it and looked at it, and was suddenly shocked, this is the handwriting of Ding Xiuyan, the king of Qi!

At this moment, someone reported again, "The general is not good, we have to be destroyed with the army's food and grass!" ”

When the man heard this, he was furious and said urgently, "Ruined? What's going on? ”

"General, there are two men and a woman behind you to sneak attack!"

The soldiers in front of the formation were still attacking.

On the city wall, Gu Rong's eyes suddenly lit up.

She spun up the city wall, pulled her bow and shot an arrow, which was like a bamboo, and the arrow hit the flag bearer, and the blue flag fell to the ground instantly.

A man and a woman were flying horses.

Gu Rong stood on the city and shouted, "The Northern Yuan soldiers listen to my orders, kill!" Kill them all! ”

It's messy!

They're messed up!

A glimmer of hope rose in Gu Rong's heart.

The city gates were opened, and 5,000 soldiers regarded death as home!

"Rush!"

Someone came galloping in.

Gu Rong's eyes lit up suddenly.

Xia Ying! Nine winters!

The people who rushed in the crowd were the nine winters and summers that had been running for days.

The two of them were stained with red blood, their expressions were solemn, and they suddenly saw someone on the high wall climbing the rope and flying down, the two abandoned their horses, flew up, and landed steadily beside Gu Rong.

Gu Rong said, "How do you know I'm in Cannes?"

Jiudong slashed the approaching Xiyuan soldiers with a knife, and said, "It's a long story, it was the prince who guessed it." ”

Thanks guessed that she was in the West Yuan

"What about others?"

Jiu Dong and Xia Ying's hearts froze, and Xia Ying said, "Miss, the enemy is now, don't be distracted." ”

The two of them stood in front of her, one left and one right.

Someone in the crowd was unarmed, and dragged the soldiers off their horses with their bare hands and scuffled together.

"Miss, hold on a little longer, they're going to collect their troops!"

How could it be

Gu Rong had doubts in her heart, and she only felt that something was wrong.

Jiu Dong said, "They must have received an order to set off immediately and take control of the Xiyuan Fortress. ”

But Gu Rong didn't have time to think about it at all, she swung her knife, and the soldier who attacked her was immediately in a different place, and blood splashed on Gu Rong's face, she turned over and got on her horse and shouted angrily, "Kill!" ”
