At this time, it is sunset, and the earth is dyed golden by the afterglow.

Nie Zheng, with the support of a group of leaders, quickly rode his horse up the hillside, and the four thousand dragon and tiger troops that followed behind surged up like a tide.

At the moment when everyone had just reached the top, suddenly, the sight in front of them suddenly opened up.

Below the hillside is a vast plain, overgrown with weeds and barren.

At the end of the plain full of weeds, a majestic city loomed into everyone's sight.

Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng slowly reined in his war horse, looked at the huge city in the distance, and muttered: "What an Annan county government, what a big city in the southwest!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at the city in the distance with feverish eyes, and their expressions were full of admiration.

Nie Zheng raised his horsewhip violently, and laughed arrogantly: "Brothers, Yangzhou City is ahead, follow my soldiers to the city, let those Dayue people see the majesty of our Dragon and Tiger Army!" ”

"Good !!"

The four thousand dragon and tiger elites applauded in unison, and the momentum that soared into the sky was close to the sky.

"Drive!"

Nie Zheng rode his horse down the hillside, and dozens of leaders such as Shi Zheng and Niu Meng also hurriedly rode their horses to follow, for fear that something would happen to the leader of the Nie League.

At the same time, the four thousand dragon and tiger elites on the hillside soared in momentum, and swept down from the hillside with a roar, rushing towards the city at the end of the plain like a whirlwind.

The Dayue people in the city of Yangzhou seem to have long been aware of the arrival of the enemy.

Just when Nie Zheng's team had just appeared fifty miles away, the Dayue general in the city ordered all the horses outside the city to return to the city.

Now, outside Yangzhou City, there is a wide and open space, and there is no figure in sight, except for the 4,000 men and horses galloping down from Happy Valley in the distance.

Outside the city of Yangzhou, on the field, the war horses are galloping, and the momentum is soaring!

Soon, Nie Zheng led an army of four thousand dragons and tigers, approaching the city for several miles with great momentum.

Just when the besieging army was still five miles away from the north gate of Yangzhou City, suddenly, Nie Zheng, who was in the lead, suddenly raised his arm and signaled the whole army to stop advancing.

Suddenly, the four thousand dragon and tiger elites who followed closely behind stopped in place one after another, waiting for the order to continue advancing.

At this time, Nie Zheng suddenly turned his head and called, "Where is Chen Shou?" ”

"Subordinates have arrived!"

After hearing the call of the alliance leader, Chen Shou immediately trotted all the way to him, bowed to Nie Zheng who was sitting on the horse, and bowed, "What does the alliance leader command?" ”

Nie Zheng glanced at him coldly and asked, "According to your last observation, those green-robed weirdos, they placed a large number of dark red cages outside the city, where exactly are those cages placed?" ”

"It's less than three miles from the city."

Chen Shou turned around and pointed to an empty place two miles away, and said, "There is a moat about ten zhang wide under the city wall, and within two miles outside the moat, a large number of dark red cages were placed that day. ”

Hearing this, Nie Zheng nodded and ordered loudly: "Fifty horses will open the way in front, and the rest of the men and horses will advance two miles further!" ”

"Yes, Alliance Leader!"

Under Nie Zheng's order, a leader led fifty horsemen and quickly rushed to the front of the team to explore the way, and at the same time, the remaining team led by Nie Zheng followed closely.

However, this time, Nie Zheng ordered everyone to slow down the pace of progress.

After all, knowing that there is a large moat blocking the way outside this Yangzhou City, we must let everyone be cautious.

Nie Zheng rode his horse and slowly advanced, and a number of leaders and masters such as Shi Zheng and Niu Meng supported him one after another, intending to protect his safety and prevent those insidious and cunning Dayue natives from ambushing killers in the dirt.

As the team continued to move forward, Nie Zheng sat on the horse, secretly feeling a little strange.

It's getting closer and closer to the city, why didn't the legendary city protection array appear in front of you at all?

The only thing that made Nie Zheng feel a little abnormal was that outside the city, there was a strange area about two miles wide.

In that strange area, about two miles wide, the ground was covered with no grass, dry earth, sand and gravel, and from a distance, it looked like a huge yellow-brown fireproof barrier, enclosing the entire city.

Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng's heart moved, and he said secretly: "Could it be that this weird isolation place is strange? ”

Thinking of this, he called Chen Shou to him again and asked carefully: "Chen Shou, those green-robed weirdos you saw last time, did they put all those black and red cages in the dry area where there is no grass at the front door?" ”

Chen Shou nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

Nie Zheng asked again: "Can you still remember the cage they placed in those places?" ”

Chen Shou shook his head and said, "I can't remember, that day, when they placed the cages, they were chaotic and irregular, and there were no geomorphological features to remember in the dry area in front of them, so it was difficult for the subordinates to remember the specific locations of those cages." ”

Nie Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "A lot? ”

Chen Shou nodded and said, "Many, just in the area around the North City Gate, there are at least a thousand dark red cages. ”

"So many ......"

Nie Zheng took a deep breath, and unconsciously, his face gradually became gloomy.

There's a problem, there's definitely something wrong with those cages!

The more Nie Zheng thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong with the boring area in front of him.

As for what is wrong, we can only go to the vicinity of the boring area, and send some alert people to go in and investigate.

In this way, fifty probe horses explored the way in front, and Nie Zheng led a large group of men and horses, slowly following behind.

During this time, there has been no anomaly.

Finally, ten minutes later, Nie Zheng led the four thousand dragon and tiger elites to stop advancing again.

At this time, they were about three miles away from the city in front of them.

At the same time, a hundred meters in front of them was a boring area where not a single grass grew.

After coming to the vicinity of this mysterious area of withered grass, Nie Zheng ordered everyone to be vigilant, they must be cautious, and no one was allowed to enter the strange area where there was no grass without his order.

At this time, Nie Zheng looked at the mysterious area in front of him, which was empty, and he didn't see a dark red cage similar to what Chen Shou said.

Seeing this scene, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Chen Shou, why didn't you see the cages you said?" ”

Chen Shou's eyes were also full of doubts, "My subordinates don't know, but a few days ago, we clearly saw those green-robed weirdos placing a large number of dark red cages in this boring area, and today they suddenly disappeared, it's really strange!" ”

Hearing this, Nie Zheng pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Governance!" ”

"The subordinates are here!"

Shi Zheng walked quickly to Nie Zheng and said respectfully, "What does the alliance leader command?" ”

Nie Zheng glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "You now select thirty people and go to the boring area of the front door to investigate and see what is strange in there." ”

Shi Zheng arched his hand and said, "Yes, my subordinates will do it!" ”

Moments later, the coup d'état selected thirty elite warriors with strong skills and clever minds, and ordered them to investigate the truth.

Soon, thirty dragon and tiger elites, armed with weapons, formed a defensive formation, and slowly walked towards the boring area in front.

It didn't take long for these thirty elites to cautiously enter the boring area where no grass grows.

As soon as they entered the area, their eyes went dark, and a vision suddenly dawned!

In an instant, they only felt that they were in a fog barrier filled with black smoke, and the thick fog was rolling inside, and their eyes could not see the surrounding scene clearly.

At the same time, they were horrified by the sight!

Suddenly, there was a violent tumbling change in the mist, and then they found that all their companions who had gathered together had disappeared into thin air.

On the spot, they looked horrified and turned extremely pale.

In the face of this strange scene, where did they dare to continue to stay, so they relied on the memories in their minds to exit this strange fog barrier in the direction they came.

However, at this moment, an incomparably terrifying scene appeared!

Within the fog barrier of black smoke billowing, all of a sudden, flying sand and rocks, smoke and dust filled the sky, and the road they had come from before had all disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, within the fog barrier of the rolling fog, there were bursts of ghost crying wolf howls, the sound was extremely poignant, extremely gloomy, and frightened the thirty dragon and tiger elites, all of them had numb scalps, and their vests were full of cold sweat.

Finally, they couldn't bear the terrifying sounds and horrors of this, and began to panic, and they all ran around in the fog barrier with a frightened look like a swarm of headless flies.

However, the more they were like this, the more strange and terrifying the scene in front of them became.

Suddenly, within the fog barrier where the fog was rolling and the ghosts were crying wolves, there were dark and dark shadows, and they were like ghosts, moving and drifting around them with great speed.

Seeing this scene, the thirty dragon and tiger elites, all of them trembled with fright, and they all picked up the weapons in their hands with a roar, and waved and slashed wildly, wanting to smash all the gloomy ghosts around them.

However, just as they wielded their weapons, an even more terrifying sight appeared.

Within the fog barrier, swords flew and blood splattered all over the sky.

At the same time, within this eerie fog barrier, bursts of screams of horror and despair continued to be heard......
