Chapter 114: The West City Gate

The West City Gate of Huixian County!

Compared with the tension at the east gate, although the west gate is also heavily guarded, it is relatively much easier, at least there is no need to face the siege of tens of thousands of troops at any time.

Of course, the walls were still heavily guarded, not only on the walls, but also on the surrounding streets, and several groups of soldiers were patrolling the streets, always on the lookout for enemies that might appear at any time.

At this moment, a group of people appeared on the street, all of whom were dressed in armor of different styles and armed with spears or broadswords, led by Zhou Xingxiu, the county governor of Hui County.

This group of only about 200 people, as soon as they appeared in the street next to the west gate, they were immediately discovered by the soldiers patrolling the street.

"Stop when someone comes, dare to take a step forward again, and there will be no forgiveness!" A patrol team of fifty people was leading the way to stop in front of these people, looking vigilantly at the sudden appearance of the men and horses, and shouted loudly.

"Haha, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, this general, this official is Zhou Xingxiu, the county lieutenant of Hui County, some families in Hui County have heard that there are traitors coming outside the city, and for the safety of the county, they each sent their own guards to protect the county, in order to be able to defend the county and contribute to His Royal Highness the county king." Zhou Xingxiu laughed, got off the horse, sat next to the horse, and said with a bold smile.

However, if you look closely, you will find that Zhou Xingxiu's hand has never left the knife on his waist, and his body is tense, as if he can burst out at any time.

Hearing Zhou Xingxiu's words, the team patrolling the streets glanced at Zhou Xingxiu in surprise, as well as the guards behind him, muttered for a while, and then said, "You wait here for a while, I can't make the decision in this matter, I'll let someone inform our general!" ”

"Yes, thank you for your accommodation!" Zhou Xingxiu said with a smile on his face.

Watching the team of decent people go in the direction of the city gate, the arc of the smile on the corner of Zhou Xingxiu's mouth became more and more wide.

Although he brought nearly twice as many soldiers to guard the western gate, he did not attack the gate immediately, because in this case, even if he could take the gate, their troops would be greatly damaged.

Even, if they are not careful, they may not fail.

After all, although their number is more than twice as many as the soldiers guarding the West City Gate, after all, they are just the guardians and servants of some big families, and it is okay to bully ordinary people, but if it is really against the regular army of the court, I am afraid it is not so simple.

Therefore, Zhou Xingxiu thought of a way, simply still come to capture the thief and capture the king first, with his identity, plus in the name of many families in Huixian County, he led to come to help, if he can lead out the main general who guards the west city gate, he will directly kill the main general, and even if he can't lead it out, if he can be accepted to defend the city together, it is also very beneficial to them, they can directly turn against the city when they go to the city wall, plus another force hidden in the dark, so that the certainty of taking the west city gate is greater.

I have to say that Zhou Xingxiu still has a bit of strategy, his plan is going well, and after a while, he saw a big man in Mingguang armor wearing a narrow robe with a round neck and a heart shield coming with a soldier on a war horse.

"It turned out to be County Lieutenant Zhou!" The main general of the city guarding who came on a horse first looked at Zhou Xingxiu and the people behind him, and then got off his horse and hugged his fists.

After all, Zhou Xingxiu is the county lieutenant of Hui County, and he is also ranked number one in the officialdom of Hui County, this city guard general is actually a cronie next to Xue Wanche before, and he once saw Zhou Xingxiu when he followed Xue Wanche to do business.

"It turned out to be General Wang, fortunately, fortunately!" Since Zhou Xingxiu had some ambitions, he naturally wouldn't be confused, but he still recognized the chief general who was guarding the city, and said with a smile, "The reason why the lower officials are here today is because the people in the county are worried about the safety of the county, so they spontaneously sent servants to ask the officials to do their part for the county king's faction, and also ask the general to look at their hearts, and let us do our best for the safety of the county!" ”

Listening to Zhou Xingxiu's words, General Wang's eyes flickered, and then he shook his head and hugged his fists, "The kindness of County Lieutenant Zhou and all of you is already known. However, General Xue has already ordered that no one should be allowed to enter the West City Gate, so please go back! ”

"This ......" Hearing General Wang's words, Zhou Xingxiu's eyes flashed a cold color, but his face was full of embarrassment, and while slowly stepping forward, he seemed to take something out of his sleeve robe, and said in a low voice, "Please also ask General Wang to be more accommodating, this matter is the ...... of the people of Hui County."

Seeing Zhou Xingxiu's actions, General Wang thought that Zhou Xingxiu was going to bribe him, and wanted to refuse sternly, but saw that a cold light suddenly appeared from Zhou Xingxiu's sleeve, and suddenly stabbed him in the neck.

There was no warning of this matter before, plus Zhou Xingxiu was a martial artist, and his shot was as fast as lightning, just after seeing the cold light, the dagger in Zhou Xingxiu's hand had already been handed to his neck.

Poof!! ~~~

The cold light swept through General Wang's neck, and blood splattered like rain on the earth in the direction of the dagger.

Fortunately, General Wang himself is good, although it happened suddenly, but the moment he was stabbed, his body subconsciously took a step back, and avoided the key point a little, so as not to be killed by Zhou Xingxiu with one blow.

However, even so, a large piece of flesh was cut on the side of General Wang's neck, and blood flowed out of it like a spring.

"General...... Look for death! The soldiers beside General Wang immediately reacted, and suddenly their eyes opened angrily, and the spear in their hand stabbed towards Zhou Xingxiu.

Zhou Xingxiu looked at General Wang, who was not dead, and was a little depressed in his heart, originally it would be easier for him to stab General Wang's abdomen, but this General Wang was wearing a bright light armor with a heart guard, and there was an iron armor on his abdomen, so he had no choice but to choose his neck.

"It's a pity!" Sighing secretly in his heart, Zhou Xingxiu retreated sharply, avoiding the stabbing spear, while casually throwing away the dagger in his hand, pulling out the matching knife in his waist with his backhand, and shouting behind him, "Kill me!" ”

"Kill!! ~~~”

Zhou Xingxiu gave an order, and the two hundred guards who followed behind him suddenly let out a loud roar, and then raised all kinds of weapons in his hands and killed the soldiers.

"Kill them for me!" On the other side, General Wang shouted with his hands on his bleeding neck while his eyes were red.

In an instant, the two armies exchanged short troops, shouting and shouting, shouting and screaming, and the sound of blood splashed and bloody.

"Kill! ~~~”

However, before General Wang came back to his senses to move the rescue troops, he saw that in the street not far away, countless figures suddenly rushed out, holding all kinds of blades, and rushed towards this side with a hideous face......
