472.Chapter 472: Let Me Go!
I smiled and didn't speak, just a little helplessness in my smile
Yuan Gongzi looked at my smile, the light in his eyes seemed to sink for a moment, and he looked at the tall city gate again, and said, "What, are you not allowed to go out here?" ”
The soldiers around were originally wary when they saw a carriage coming, but when they saw that I was familiar with him, they didn't say much, and at this time, when they heard him ask, a person came up and said: "There is an order from the Lord of the Overseer here, the gate has been sealed, if you want to leave, go to the south gate." ”
"Supervisor...... Army? He turned to look at me.
I smiled faintly: "It's my husband." ”
"Since Lord Warden is your husband, why do you still want to come here? If you don't get out of town sooner, do you know that it's dangerous to stay here? ”
"I'm just not at ease, come here and have a look."
"Not sure?"
"Hmm." I nodded and said, "Actually, if the people of Shengjing really want to attack Dongzhou, the army of 400,000 should be ready at any time, why set a limit of one month?" So I suspect they have other plans. ”
He asked, "Figure what?" ”
I said, "I couldn't figure it out before, but later, the people of Katsukyo launched several raids, but they didn't achieve any success and went back, and at that time I felt that they didn't really want to raid, but wanted to use the raid to warn some people in the city." ”
"Warning?"
"Yes." I slowly raised my head and looked at the two reinforced gates, and said, "When Shengjing's 400,000 troops are coming, all the soldiers in Dongzhou City will inevitably defend the north gate, but if someone raids the west gate at this time, or if someone opens the west gate from inside the city-"
I looked back at Yuan Gongzi: "What do you think?" ”
Yuan Gongzi listened to me calmly, thought about it, nodded and said: "You are right, if someone really opens the gate of the West City, or if the enemy raids here, the people of Shengjing don't need to spend a single soldier, and Dongzhou City will not be breached." ”
As soon as the surrounding soldiers heard our words, they immediately woke up, and at this moment, the officers and soldiers guarding the city tower suddenly shouted downward: "Attention, there is an enemy situation!" ”
"What?"
"What's going on?"
As soon as they heard the enemy's situation, the soldiers defending the city became nervous, and they heard the people on the castle tower say: "There is a team of Shengjing's men and horses coming this way!" ”
My heart also pounded, I didn't expect it to be true, and after a while, I heard a rapid and heavy sound of horses' hooves coming in with the sound of the wind, and there seemed to be a lot of people coming, stirring up the wind and sand in the sky, and even the sky was obscured.
I hurried up the castle tower.
As soon as I walked up the stairs, a hand behind my back reached out and grabbed me, and when I looked back, it was Yuan Gongzi, who looked at me nervously: "What are you doing?" How can you go up? It's too dangerous! ”
"It's okay, I'm just going up and looking, if the situation is serious, I'll let people figure out a way."
"No way!"
His hand still grabbed my wrist hard, I couldn't break free, and I was a little anxious, and said, "You let go of me, let go!" ”
He stubbornly grabbed me and didn't let go, but seeing that I didn't look like I wanted to compromise at all, he hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Okay, you have to go up, wait for me to accompany you." ”
“……”
This time, I was stunned, I didn't expect him to really stay, and he would really accompany me.
"Childe, no, you can't go up!"
His servant was also anxious, and hurriedly came up to obstruct it, and Yuan Gongzi said, "It's okay." The wind and sand are rising, go and bring my veil. ”
The servant couldn't, so he could only go back and take out a white veil and send it, Yuan Gongzi put the veil on his face, turned to me and said, "Let's go, I'll accompany you up." ”
I gritted my teeth, didn't speak, and went up the tower with him.
The wind on the city tower is much colder than below, as soon as I go up, I was blown to stumble slightly, Yuan Gongzi hurriedly reached out to help me, I looked up at him, the snow-white veil was tightly attached to his face, outlining a beautiful side face, only the pair of eyes that were revealed were also clear and calm, looking into the distance under the city tower.
Following his gaze, he saw a large group of people galloping over from afar, and the yellow sand in the sky was raised behind him, and sure enough, they were all Shengjing's men and horses!
It seems that I was really unfortunate to say it!
The soldiers on the tower of the city had already set up their arrows and aimed them at the people below, and when those men and horses came to be less than a hundred feet away from the city gate, they all stopped, and one of the generals guarding the city said loudly: "Who is coming, and what are you doing?" ”
One of the generals below laughed and said, "What to do? What are you doing? Don't you open the door and surrender, waiting for us to slaughter Dongzhou? ”
"Open the door and surrender, you are dreaming!"
"Hmph, if it's a dream or not, you will naturally know!" The man laughed wildly, and suddenly, as if he had seen something, the laughter stopped abruptly.
The city gate fell silent for a while, a gust of wind swept the yellow sand, with an indescribable sense of slaughter, every soldier on the city tower raised their strength, and did not dare to relax at all.
Then I heard the general sneer and say, "It seems that if you want to do less, you can't do it." ”
After saying that, he raised his hand and waved it lightly!
At this time, I saw that in the yellow sand behind him that was stirred up by the horse's hooves, a huge sound slowly came, as if a giant came over step by step, and the tall silhouette appeared from the yellow sand, and as soon as it appeared in front of us, everyone was stunned!
It was a ladder to the city!
The soldiers defending the city all gasped, and when I saw those ladders, my palms were also full of cold sweat - I really didn't guess wrong, the people of Shengjing really planned to do this, the attack of 400,000 troops at the north city gate was just a cover, they didn't plan to pay so much sacrifice in this big battle, and the surprise attack on the west gate was the key to victory!
At this time, the general under the city tower had already drawn his scimitar and swung it violently in the air: "Siege!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the soldiers behind him immediately rushed up with a roar, and the heavy and huge ladder was also pushed to the city wall, and the general defending the city hurriedly shouted: "Shoot the arrows!" Shoot the arrows! ”
Suddenly, countless arrows flashed with cold light, and flew down like dense rain, and immediately came the screams of the people who were hit by the arrows, but this did not stop their steps, those people hurriedly carried the iron shield above their heads, and immediately some soldiers took advantage of the cover of the iron shield to wind up the arrows, and the arrows whistled, and immediately, several soldiers in front of me fell to the ground in response!
A patch of blood in front of my eyes!
It seemed to be the first time I had seen such a war, a bloody scene, and I was stunned, and when another soldier fell screaming with an arrow, the blood in his chest gushed out towards me, and I was caught off guard when the blood was about to fall head-on.
Suddenly, my wrist was pulled hard, and I took several steps back and fell into the arms of a man, and the blood was sprinkled in front of me, and a few bits of crimson stained the corners of my skirt.
When I looked back, it was Yuan Gongzi who grabbed me.
There was still no expression on his face, just solemn and heavy, which was a strange sense of disagreement from the usual fairy-like him, and I said in horror: "Yuan Gongzi." ”
“……”
He looked at me, still not speaking, not making any other movements, just standing.
Looking at the way he looks, it doesn't seem like he's going to do anything to help either side.
But the people of Shengjing obviously came prepared, and the soldiers defending the city did not expect that there would be a fierce battle, the sudden attack caught them off guard, and after a while, dozens of soldiers had fallen under their feet, and the people under the city tower were still pouring up, watching the tall ladder slowly leaning against the city wall, making a loud bang!
"Shoot the arrows! Hurry up and release the arrows! They must not be allowed to come up! ”
The general defending the city was already wounded in the shoulder, and the blood was flowing on the armor, which was particularly dazzling, and he was still roaring hoarsely, but this could not stop the attack of those people below, and he saw that several agile people climbed up from the ladder, and the scimitar in his hand was vigorously waved.
When the general saw this, he didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly brandished his long sword and rushed forward, stabbing it with a fierce sword, and the scimitar in the hand of the soldier who had landed in the city was so cold that it also cut off the general's arm.
Suddenly, both men were seriously wounded and bleeding, the general fell to the ground, and the man who had landed in the city also fell.
"Join the army!"
As soon as the people around him saw that he was injured, they hurriedly pounced, only to see that half of the soldier's body was stained red with blood, his face was pale with pain, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Brothers, you must hold on, and you can't let them attack the city, otherwise-otherwise-otherwise-"
Otherwise, Dongzhou will be finished!
He fainted before he could finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he was talking about, and after holding him aside, the soldiers rushed forward again with their swords brandished.
However, in the end, they faced the battle in a hurry, and when a few ladders were set up, they were even more exhausted.
I just felt that the palm of the hand that held my hand was covered with cold sweat.
At this moment, a few more people climbed the ladder, and the soldiers defending the city desperately shot arrows downward, and after those few people cleverly dodged, two of them set up a person with both hands and carried it violently towards the city wall, and that person immediately rose into the air, turned over and landed on the city tower!
And the righteous one fell in front of me!
As soon as the man got up to the tower, he immediately pulled out the scimitar at his waist with both hands, and saw a cold flash in front of him, and suddenly the sharp blade was close in front of me, and it was about to hit my chest.
At this moment, the hand holding me suddenly exerted force, and I was violently carried into a chest, and when I turned around, I could flash the edge of the scimitar.
It's Yuan Gongzi!
He dodged the blow with me in his arms, but stumbled against the battlement behind him, and heard him grunt, his whole face twitching.
Oh no, his injuries!
I looked up, and sure enough, I saw another soaking red from his robe, on his shoulders that were so tightly wrapped in bandages!
