On the fourth day after the autumn equinox, it was the third night of the confrontation between the King of Linxi and the Prince of Wuye in and around the city of Yunjing.

In the cold wind of the middle of the night, everything was silent, and even the people who fought the watch seemed to be resting, and the Yulin guards on duty on the top of the various castle towers had to wrap a thick tweed cloak on the outside of their armor, otherwise even the samurai might not be able to be unharmed. After all, it's snowing season in the north.

However, at this moment, on the tower facing the south gate, an unexpected person came.

"Your Highness, haven't you rested so late?" The night vigil commander looked at the Nightless Prince in front of him, wearing a golden silk flying dragon robe, and his tone was surprised.

"Well, Your Highness is worried about the slack of the city defense soldiers, so I will prepare some fine wine for you to ward off the bitter cold. The person standing behind the Prince of Neverless was Qin Guyue, and behind the two of them were more than a dozen doormen carrying wine jars.

"Your Highness......" The captain of the Yulin guard said, "abstain from alcohol in the army, especially during duty, this is especially true of it, and I forgive you for not accepting it." ”

Who knew that the prince of Wuye smiled and said: "Okay, you don't have to stick to the rules, after all, the body of the warriors is more important than any rules, half a bowl per person, warm up the body, you won't get drunk!"

"This ......" The commander of the army heard the words of the prince of the nightless, so he had to kneel down and thank the more than a dozen jars of royal wine.

There was a soft "bang", and a moment later, above the south gate tower, all the soldiers on duty were summoned to the gate tower. Prince Wuye himself picked up a porcelain wine bowl, poured half a bowl, drank it all in front of the soldiers on duty, and said, "Everyone should drink a little!"

Seeing that the Prince of Nevernight had started first, the other Yulin guards were relieved, and they took the wine bowls and tasted the wine one by one.

Just above the castle tower, the atmosphere of cold autumn gradually dissipated, and when everyone drank and talked more, chaos abruptly changed!

"It's on fire! It's on fire!" Suddenly, a fire rose in Yunjing City, but it was impossible to see which house was burning, and the fire was extremely large, and it quickly spread to the surrounding houses, and instantly turned into a whole sea of fire.

I saw that the pillar of fire that soared into the sky, far away, even reflected half of Qin Guyue's cheeks.

"The fire is so fierce...... Qin Guyue judged: "It's the physiognomist who is doing it, it's definitely not an ordinary house on fire, and there are spies mixed in the city!"

"Are you involved in the spies?" The expression on the face of the Prince of Wuye was extremely calm, and he even picked up the half bowl of wine in his hand, took a sip and said, "King Linxi really has a back hand!"

At the moment when a pillar of fire rose inside the city and burned half of the sky red, it was as if to give a clear signal to the enemy troops stationed outside, and the sound of the horn outside Yunjing City suddenly blew "woo woo woo"!

Under the cover of the night, countless soldiers in black helmets and armor, hidden in the darkness, shouted and killed in an instant, and launched an assault on the four gates of Yunjing City at the same time!

At the same time, behind the stormtrooping troops, tens of thousands of torches were lit at the same time, and in the wilderness, it instantly became like daylight, and the sappers in the army suddenly pulled off the black cloth covering the siege equipment, revealing countless hideous siege mechanisms, such as the thunderbolt cannon that broke through the city wall, the ironclad car against the bow and crossbow on the city tower, the ladder, and the rushing car that crashed the city gate, etc.

In an instant, the originally quiet military camp outside the city seemed to have turned from ice to water, and even a monstrous flood, under the cover of siege equipment, rushed towards Yunjing City, the first fortified city in the northern continent!

"How can the enemy army have so many siege equipment?" A doorman beside the Prince of Nightless suddenly said with a pale face after seeing the countless ordnance under the torches.

"Obviously, King Linxi had long known that something would happen to His Majesty Wulie, so he hid these weapons outside the city early on, and now he took them out all at once......" Qin Guyue looked at the siege equipment outside the city wall, her face solemn.

"The soldiers are coming to block it, and the water is coming to cover it, don't we have the ordnance to defend the city?" The expression on the face of the Prince of Wuye was still calm, "He Shengwu Yan has been preparing for so long, why is this palace not afraid of what he will do?"

......The rapid sound of the alarm bell suddenly rang and resounded throughout the city, mixed with the low roar of the soldiers: "The enemy army is strong, all members participate in the battle!"

"Don't panic!" Prince Wuye's eyes were deep, he turned his face sideways, and said to the doorman behind him: "You take the others and go to clear the spies in the city, and ...... Bring the wooden armor with you!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" the doorman answered, and was about to go downstairs, when he saw a doorman covered in blood, stumbling up the tower.

"Why are you so alarmed?" Prince Wuye glanced at the guest, don't say it's him, even Qin Guyue next to him has a very bad premonition, but Sheng Wuye is still trying to calm down.

"Your Highness, Your Highness......" The doorman kowtowed to the ground and said in a mournful voice: "The spies in the city are not ordinary soldiers, all of them are monks, and there are more than a dozen star-level masters, we ...... We can't stop it!"

"What!" Prince Wuye's face was slightly moved, but Qin Guyue guessed that this was the people of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, raising troops for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, and the masters of the Heavenly Dao Alliance raised by King Linxi had been lurking in the city, and at this time they had become internal responses.

"Your Highness, what now?" asked the doorman who had come to the labor army with the Prince of the Nightless Spirit, in a deep voice.

After all, now everyone has no idea, everything is too coincidental, so coincidental that people can't react, the prince of the nightless and the doorman brought some imperial wine to the south gate of the city to work the army, originally there was a sympathetic feeling not to let the night watch soldiers suffer the cold, who knew that the front foot of the road was drunk, and the spies in the back foot of the city set fire to it, which attracted the onslaught of the army outside the city!

If there is no spy informant, then it is called hell!

"Put on the wooden armor and suppress!" "Prince Wuye thought for a moment and ordered, "This may be able to give you a fight!"

"Obey!" The doorman was just about to turn around, but the Prince of Nightless suddenly said, "Have you written all the letters I asked you to write to your family in advance?"

The doorman was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's all written." ”

"Then go ahead......" Prince Nightless nodded.

The doorman turned around, knelt down, kowtowed to the Prince of the Nightless and said, "The prince knows the grace of the encounter, and he will repay it in the next life!"

Immediately, more than 30 high-class doormen dressed in purple clothes on top of the city tower knelt down at the same time, each kowtowed heavily, stood up, and rushed down the city tower without head.

Not long after, in the Yunjing City below, rows of wooden armored monsters with a height of more than ten feet appeared on the street, these wooden armored monsters were wrapped in wooden armor, and only one fist was the size of a basin, as if they were monsters staggering through the streets of Yunjing City that had turned into a sea of fire.

The people of Yunjing City, who were already in chaos, naturally didn't have time to take care of them, but many people noticed them.

"What kind of monster is this!"

"I don't know what to do......"

"Looks like it's someone from the prince's side!"

"Then them!"

Needless to say, these people who were in groups of three or five in the sea of fire, arson and killing, and sniping at Yulinwei were all monks of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and after they determined that these wooden armored monsters were the disciples of the prince's side, they immediately pounced on them like howling hungry wolves!

I saw a doorman wearing wooden armor in front of him, raised his right hand, and with a "bang", a stainless steel crossbow arrow suddenly ejected from the wooden armor in his right hand, which directly pierced the heart of a Heavenly Dao Alliance monk in the lead, and the huge momentum generated by the machine did not stop, and in the retreat, he pierced a martial artist who followed behind, and nailed it to a burning wallboard on the side of the road before stopping.

The power of this arrow was so great that it directly shocked the group of Heavenly Dao Alliance monks who were about to rush up behind them, and they didn't dare to step forward at all, but they couldn't retreat, just when they hesitated, the leading doorman shouted: "Gentlemen, today is the time for me to be loyal to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Behind him, the soldiers in wooden armor were suddenly excited, driving the wooden armor to take a big stride and fight fiercely with the Heavenly Dao Alliance monks along the way.

At the same time, the enemy troops outside the four city gates are now under the suppression of countless crossbow arrows and artillery fire on the city tower, and they have broken through to the city wall less than a hundred paces away, as long as they cross the moat, they can immediately climb the city wall of Yunjing!

At this time, it was dark again, and the opponent's army was all black-clothed and black-armed, and it was impossible to see the configuration of the opponent's military strength at all.

But the side of the King of Linxi was obviously prepared, and those Thunderbolt cannons set up in the wilderness outside the city were specifically aimed at the organs on the city tower, and those powerful city defense organs could often only be murderous for a while, and they were soon dumbfounded under the attack of the Thunderbolt cannons.

At this time, the Prince of Nothing, who was standing on the tower of the South Gate, frowned as he looked at the enemy troops sweeping everywhere, as well as the cannonballs and boulders that kept falling from the sky.

Beside him, from time to time, soldiers would inform him of the battle situation at the city gates, but without exception, it was not good news.

"The enemy army has attacked under the North City Gate!"

"The West City Gate has already fought a white-knuckle battle on the city walls, and it has just repelled the first wave of enemy attacks. ”

"Although the east gate kept the enemy out of the moat, the commander of the Yulin soldiers who defended the city was unfortunately hit by a cannonball and died of his wounds. ”

"The North City Gate has begun a white-knuckle battle!"

"The West City Gate is about to be overwhelmed!"

......

Listening to this news one by one, Qin Guyue's face became more and more solemn, and he glanced at the enemy army under the south city gate, although he used the rushing car, he was still repelled by the doorman under the command of the Prince of Wuye, who was equipped with the Momen mechanism, and his eyes were suddenly moved.
