The soldiers at the head of the city were dumbfounded, and in their sight, the enemy soldiers, who had been weak like sheep before, had turned into fierce lions, and they stepped on the corpses of their companions with red eyes, and quickly advanced towards the city wall, and the corpses scattered on the ground did not slow them down, but gave them good cover.

I have to say that standing at the head of the city are the best soldiers under Kino, who fought bravely from the beginning, and no one left the battlefield, but after several hours of continuous fighting, their physical strength has been exhausted, and there is not much fighting spirit left.

Keno returned to the city tower, he thought that today's battle had just been fought just now, they had already won, and the enemy's casualties were so large, he would definitely choose to retreat and make plans after regrouping, but he didn't expect that they were taking a paralyzing strategy, and there were so many high-level fighters hidden, so Xiao Tian was right

Ling Xiaotian was standing beside Kino, with a solemn expression on his face, he knew that if the defenders at this time couldn't come up with good countermeasures, the city would inevitably be destroyed.

"Order the defenders and reserves of the city to take over their posts," Kino commanded in a deep voice: "The men on the city wall must be withdrawn in batches, and they must be completed within three minutes, and send people to the back pass as soon as possible, and all the defenders will be dispatched over, and the real fierce battle will begin."

"Yes," the herald turned and left.

Under normal circumstances, after the fighter's fighting spirit is consumed, it will recover through rest and cultivation, but it will take a certain amount of time, so it will take at least ten hours for the soldiers who are about to withdraw if they want to fully recover their fighting energy, and if they don't have enough time to fully recover, the recovered part of their fighting energy will be consumed faster.

In this attack, the enemy did not use large siege weapons, but in teams of two, carrying a long bamboo pole at the same time, in this way, the people in front of them were sent to the city wall, and the people in the second echelon carried the ladder, and these people were all above level 30.

Ling Xiaotian glanced at the soldiers who took over the city, most of them were fighters of the more than ten levels, and there was no other advantage to speak of except for the only advantage of being condescending.

"Xiao Tian, you go to Qianguan again" Kino gritted his teeth and said: "When you see Connor, you tell him, I beg him to send troops as a brother for decades, as long as I can keep our pass from being lost, I will agree to whatever conditions he wants, even if the family is bankrupt, I will also satisfy him"

Ling Xiaotian said in his heart That guy is already determined to be a traitor, it's strange to be able to listen to you, even if you can do what you say, can the people of the entire empire be able to do the past without blame, no matter how stupid he is, he will think of this

However, since Kino had spoken, Ling Xiaotian naturally had to do it.

"I'll go right away" Before Ling Xiaotian spread his wings, he said earnestly: "Commander, I advise you to ask for one word, it is better to ask for others than for yourself"

……

Conor stood at the top, holding a telescope in his hand, watching the fierce battle on Zhongguan's side, and said to the adjutant below with a smile: "It seems that there is no suspense about today's events at all, Batus is really a military wizard, and he can actually come up with such an offensive method, which can be regarded as a surprise to Keno."

The adjutant immediately echoed: "Batus is a famous general in the world, in terms of prestige, he is a cut higher than Commander Keno, from the beginning of the troops to the current large-scale attack, every step surprises Commander Keno As long as Zhongguan is taken down, they can drive straight into the next step, and we, in the point of isolation, in order to save the lives of 80,000 soldiers, we have to be forced to surrender, whether it is the empire or the people, what can they say, hahaha"

It was obvious that Connor was thinking the same thing, and he laughed along, but after just a few seconds of laughing, he couldn't laugh anymore because he saw Ling Xiaotian flying towards him.

"Why does that kid stay ghosted" Conor said angrily, "just drove him away, here again, what does this guy want to do?"

"I don't know," the adjutant said with some fear, "he won't be here to expose the truth."

"I'm sorry" Connell said hatefully: "Then someone has to believe him, the soldiers in the front pass are all you and me, no matter what he says, the soldiers will treat him as a fart"

"My lord, my lord," the adjutant said with a wry smile: "This Xiao Tian is very evil, didn't he bring Commander Kino's sword when he came to give the order just now, so that those pro-soldiers didn't do anything to him, who knows what tricks this kid is going to play this time."

Keno frowned, just now because those pro-soldiers did not obey his orders, those people were all dragged to beat thirty military sticks to set an example.

……

At the north gate of the imperial capital, 30,000 ironclad soldiers walked at the same rhythm, and both sides of the street were full of people who saw them off. These are a group of recruits who have just been trained by the Imperial Capital City Guards, and they do not have any combat experience, and it can be seen from their bright armor and weapons that these people must have started to live the days of holding knives for no more than half a year.

Not to mention that it takes them at least five days to travel from the imperial capital to Beiguan, just such a group of chicks who have never seen the "market", what role can they play when they arrive at Beiguan, the only role is that there are 30,000 more useless "young master soldiers" in the Beiguan garrison

Helian Qing stood at the head of the city, very pleased to look at the long dragon discharged by the soldiers, these soldiers were sent out under her strong advocacy, if according to the ideas of those pedantic old ministers, then there is no need to send reinforcements to Beiguan, if the nearly 200,000 defenders can't hold a small pass, that is, another 200,000 may not be able to hold it, since it can't be held, why increase the troops

"Empress Dowager Jianguo, do you think we can hold it?" Gonggong Chen asked behind Helian Qing, since the old emperor died, this eunuch has become her follower.

"Surely, wherever my army goes, no one can stop it" Helian Qing said confidently, in her eyes, these well-dressed soldiers are good soldiers, invincible soldiers

……

Keno still commanded the battle from the tower, and from time to time enemy soldiers rushed to the top of the city, although each time he was surrounded by the defenders, but this situation became more and more common.

"Your Excellency, the soldiers of Houguan have arrived" The herald ran to Kino's side panting, and said, "Only 5,000 people are left to guard the pass, and the rest are ready to be thrown into battle at any time, please give orders"

Keno's heart warmed, no matter what, he didn't reach the point of exhaustion, as long as there are people, there is hope.

He asked Ling Xiaotian to go to Qianguan again, because he had a glimmer of hope, if Connerken turned back, he would now carry out a front and rear attack, even if he could not completely defeat the enemy army, he would be able to beat them away, and he would not dare to attack in a short time.

Unfortunately, this can only be an unattainable hope for him.

……

"Xiao Tian, tell me, what do you want?" Conor asked, tilting his head.

In the past, Conor had always felt that he was a man who was loyal to his duties and loyal to the empire, but later found that under the temptation of materialism, no one could resist it, so he wanted to deal with Ling Xiaotian in the same way, and this was how he was dealt with by Batus at that time.

"Hehe, if you can give me a medium-sized city, plus 300,000 gold coins, I think I will consider letting you go" Ling Xiaotian smiled and said: "I'm not as greedy as some people, so taxes don't need to be discounted"
