Chapter 269: It's All Someone Else's Blood

It was getting dark, and the rebels outside the city were repulsed one after another, but the other side didn't seem to have the intention of stopping, and continued to rush up.

"Beware of deception." Bai Yuanxin, the main general who took Mo Jinyu to guard the south city gate, said, "The siege of the city was not like this before, so be in good spirits, don't fall for the rebels." ”

The fighting continued into the night, and the rebels did not retreat, but attacked more and more. At the same time, several black shadows took advantage of the cover of the night to cross the city wall, and before the soldiers defending the city could react, several were cut down. After that, more and more men in black climbed the city walls.

Judging from the skills of these people, it was obvious that they were not ordinary soldiers, and soon more defenders of the city pounced, and the two sides fought. The rebel offensive under the city became more and more fierce, and the defenders were overwhelmed.

Mo Jinyu cursed and also threw himself into the battle. After holding his breath for several days, he seemed to have found a breakthrough, and the long sword in his hand swung out like a bamboo.

A figure flashed, setting up the weapon that was about to slash at Mo Jinyu. "Cangjiu, you came just in time!"

Since Cang Jiu was cured by Mu Qingyun, Murong Chu temporarily put him in the military camp. He and Mo Jinyu are about the same age, and they knew each other before, although they have different personalities, they are often together. This time, Cang Jiu didn't know where he went, and he didn't guard the city gate with Mo Jinyu.

With the arrival of Cangjiu, there were more people on the city wall. These people were not from the barracks, but since they came with Cang Jiu, Mo Jinyu didn't ask too much, and besides, there was no time for him to ask more now.

The battle was very chaotic, the two sides were evenly matched, and from time to time someone fell down from the city wall and someone climbed up. A figure took advantage of the chaos to descend the stairs of the castle tower and touched it in the direction of the city gate.

"Captain Yang, where are you going?" Bai Yuanxin didn't know when he appeared in front of this person.

This person was the deputy commander of one of the twelve Golden Tiger Guards, and this one was not among the seven Golden Tiger Guards who had taken refuge in King Jin. Its commander has always been loyal, but this Yang Duwei has already secretly surrendered to the door of King Jin. The king of Jin ordered him to lurk and wait for the opportunity to cooperate with the siege. He had just received an order from the man in black from the King of Jin, and this time his mission was to open the southern city gate.

A blue light rose into the air, and the guards trotted into the big tent of the Chinese army: "Lord Qi, a signal has been sent in the city." ”

King Jin was overjoyed, and stepped out of the big tent, Xiao Wentong and others followed, only to see another red light flash in the air, and King Jin waved his hand: "Attack the city with all your might!" ”

Of the four gates of the capital, the south gate is the most solid and difficult to attack, and anyone would think that the king of Jin would start with the weak west gate. But he did the opposite, and a few days ago he did focus on the west gate of the siege, attracting most of the troops defending the city. But they laid most of their men and horses in ambush south of the West City Gate.

Today, the four city gates sent 10,000 soldiers and horses at the same time, but 300 dead soldiers went straight to the south gate, and another 30,000 troops quietly moved south. At this time, a signal was sent from the city, indicating that the south gate was ready to be opened, and 30,000 people marched at the same time, and they would definitely be able to attack the city in one fell swoop.

What King Jin didn't expect was that it was not the spies he left in the city who sent the signal, but the secret guards under Murong Chu. The army of 30,000 marched towards the southern city gate, and the front team had just crossed the moat, only to hear a huge rumble from behind, followed by a large number of the rear army. Before the people who rushed in front could react to what was going on, a burst of arrows struck from above the castle tower like a torrential rain.

The expected city gate was not opened, and the back was still blocked by a number of corpses in the retreat, and for a while the wailing continued, and the moat was quickly dyed red. The 30,000 men immediately collapsed and fled in all directions.

Murong Chu held the battlement with his hand and looked at the tragic situation under the city coldly, and the corners of his lips slightly hooked an arc. The thing that the little girl asked her to make is really easy to use, but it's a pity that this war is too hurried and not much has been done, so you must prepare more in the future.

This siege ended in failure, the rebels suffered heavy losses, and the king of Jin did not dare to fight, so he ordered all men and horses to withdraw outside the city.

On the city tower, Mo Jinyu was panting with his back against the battlement, but his eyes were shining: "General, what is that?" That's amazing! ”

"Wind, fire and thunder." Murong Chu said that the little girl originally told him that the thing was called a landmine, but he still felt that the name Fenghuo Thunder was more domineering.

"With this thing, I'm afraid that I won't be able to defeat those rebels!" Mo Jinyu wiped a handful of blood stains on his face, although he felt very tired, every nerve was excited, "General, how can you always come up with something new, that small bamboo tube can see far away, and this wind and fire thunder can solve so many people at once." ”

Murong Chu glanced at him and said lightly, "Go and deal with the injuries on your body first." "The little girl has a lot of ideas, but she can't let others know, not even her own brother, otherwise she doesn't know what trouble she will cause.

"It's just a little skin trauma, and it's not in the way." Mo Jinyu looked at the blood-stained robe on his body, hooked his lips and smiled, "It's all other people's blood." ”

Murong Chu raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect this kid to go into battle to kill the enemy for the first time, and he was not afraid at all.

The dead bodies on the walls were quickly cleaned, and the smell of blood and burnt gunpowder still lingered in the air. This battle was fought beautifully, not only defending the city gate, but also destroying countless enemies, greatly dampening the rebels, and the morale of the officers and soldiers defending the city was high. Murong Chu had a solemn face, and the people who attacked the city today were obviously the dead soldiers cultivated by the King of Jin, and the number of them was breathtaking. With King Jin's person, next, there will definitely be a follow-up.

Sure enough, the night was not quiet, and on the fourth watch, the rebels attacked the south gate again. After last night's battle, it has become the weakest of the four gates.

Murong Chu personally supervised the battle, arrows, rolling logs, and stones...... Everything that can be used is used, and the rebels are like crazy, and those in front fall down, and someone in the back immediately makes up for it.

On the top of the city tower, several figures climbed up under the cover of the besieging soldiers, and unlike the previous dead soldiers, their goal was obviously to assassinate the two defending generals led by Murong Chu.

There were a total of twelve people coming, and in addition to eleven on the city tower, there were four secret guards, plus Murong Chu, Cang Jiu and two generals, but there were only nine people. The others were all ordinary martial arts like Mo Jinyu or ordinary soldiers.

"Master be careful, it's a Jianghu person." Eleven reminded warily as he stared at the rushing man.

Murong Chu naturally saw the skills of these people, and pulled Mo Jinyu, who wanted to rush forward, behind him. At the same time, he made a few gestures to the people around him. The secret guards who had followed him for many years naturally knew what these gestures meant, and they were ready to meet the enemy.

Twelve Assassins fought their way out of the soldiers and rushed towards them.
