Chapter 614: Sworn to Defend to the Death
Listening to her calm tone, Qi Jingxing's heart ached.
How could Yuna be the only one left?
But when he opened his mouth, he still didn't say anything, just raised his hand and gently touched his breastplate.
Beneath the breastplate, a cute tiger head shoe is sitting inside.
At this moment, he seemed to feel a warm current in his heart.
"Well, you were with me that night."
Qi Jingxing nodded.
Looking at his suddenly softened facial lines, Princess Yunshan was slightly stunned in her heart, and there was some uncontrollable sourness.
Did he remember the woman?
Thinking of the woman who spoke coldly to herself, her heart was also cold.
It's just that he took advantage of his absence to snatch Jing Xing, what's so proud, obviously he is the one who came first.
Soon, night fell.
Lights began to light up in the distance on the plain ahead.
That was the army of Shadow and the other allies.
"General, I have found out the approximate frequency of their patrols, in addition, the location on the right side of the west gate is about ten miles away, there are relatively few patrols, and the main person in charge of that side is the captain of the original city of Yuan Guo, that person is just a straw bag, and it is only because of the family's blessing that he got mixed into this position, so the guards over there are relatively loose."
Qi Jingxing took the drawings handed over by his subordinates, and after writing down all the contents on the drawings, he took a few people he personally selected and Princess Yunshan to set off for the city together.
Half an hour later, they came to a relatively weakly defended area.
But even if the defense is relatively weak, every two miles apart, there is a sentry post more than ten meters high, and the people on it are always watching the movements everywhere, and every quarter of an hour on the ground, a patrol team passes by.
"Do you think it's necessary to guard against it so strictly?"
In one of the patrols, a soldier yawned impatiently, "In this situation, who can get out of it?" Not to mention outside, isn't it just looking for death to break in? Why do we have to patrol the ground so hard? Isn't that a toss-up?"
Another soldier couldn't help but whisper, "It's just that after so many days of guarding, not a single bird inside has been released, and not a single bird outside has flown in, is this necessary?"
"Okay, don't talk about it."
The captain frowned and interrupted the two, "It's about to run out of food inside, I'm afraid it won't be over in a few days, don't complain, we can go into the city to have a good time after the last few days of patrolling, but don't make anything wrong with me at this last moment!"
As soon as they heard that they could enter the city, the soldiers suddenly came to their senses again.
"Hehe, don't worry, I won't let go of even a mosquito!"
As soon as the words fell, the man suddenly stabbed the spear out, and the croaking sound next to him stopped abruptly.
"I'm sick of it!"
He stepped forward to retrieve his spear, and threw away the pierced toad in disgust.
When they walked away, the "ground", which had been silent and motionless, suddenly moved, and then turned into a group of moving black shadows, moving rapidly in the night.
The sentry from a mile away looked at the place, and seemed to feel that something had moved in the darkness, but saw nothing, and the light of the flames was really weak, and could not illuminate the darkness a mile away.
Qi Jingxing calculated the places where different patrol teams would pass, and led everyone to stagger the team, moving forward like a shadow in the dark night without hindrance.
When we got to the bottom of the city wall, the first line of defense was over, but the defense above the city wall was even stricter.
Every twenty meters, a guard leaned against the wall and stared down, and once they spotted it, they didn't want to cross it.
They took out the iron claws they had prepared, prepared to hook the walls with them, and then climbed up.
But the sound of the iron claws hooking the wall was too obvious, even if the claws had been wrapped in strips of cloth, the sound was still obvious on such a quiet night, and it would definitely be discovered.
At this moment, several exclamations suddenly came from the distance.
"Enemy attack!"
"Someone, come on, go over and have a look!"
With this sound, on the city wall, the soldiers under the city wall were all alarmed, and immediately rushed in the direction where the sound came from, taking advantage of this moment, several people threw iron claws up at the same time, firmly hooked the masonry of the city wall, and then quickly went up to the wall like a flying swallow.
By the time the patrolmen came running, they couldn't see anything.
And the soldiers on the city wall hurried to the other side for some people, and the rest were asked to stay where they were, and one soldier was tired of guarding it for a long time.
Everyone knew that this city would definitely not be able to be defended, but they were only the smallest soldiers, and they had no ability to resist, and now they had less and less to eat every day, and only gruel and wild vegetable steamed buns were distributed every day, which caused their physical fitness to deteriorate more and more.
"When will it come to an end, it's better to open the city gate and surrender!"
He muttered a whisper, sighed, raised his head and prepared to stand up, when suddenly he felt a cold on his neck, and then his eyes went dark, and there was no longer breath.
Qi Jingxing and the others killed several soldiers in a row, gently threw the corpses off the city wall with ropes, and then changed into soldiers' clothes and quickly passed through the city wall.
After leaving the city wall, they changed into night clothes again, and under the guidance of Princess Yunshan, they went all the way to the palace.
The palace guards were layered, and in the end, Qi Jingxing planned to sneak in with Princess Yunshan alone, while the others stayed outside the palace and prepared to respond.
At this time, the body that they threw down the city wall was finally found.
A group of rebel soldiers surrounded the unclothed corpse, inspected it, and then looked up at the city walls.
"What's going on? How did they throw their own people down?"
"Who knows if it's our own people, it won't be our people!"
"Quick, report to the general at this time!"
The group was shocked and immediately asked one person to go and report.
When the soldiers guarding the city on the city wall heard the movement and saw so many soldiers patrolling under the city tower, they also felt strange and immediately went to report it.
After the report, they found out that several soldiers were missing.
Thinking of the fact that someone shot two soldiers defending the city directly from under the city tower just now, the general was suddenly shocked and angry at the same time!
"These rebels are too much! At this moment, people who are still secretly killing us are not abiding by the rules and not talking about martial virtues! This is clearly deliberately humiliating us!"
"Come on, hurry, report the news quickly, I'm afraid these rebels can't wait, and they are probably ready to forcibly attack the city!" Wake everyone up and be ready to fight! Defend the city to the death!"
