The sound of swords was hoarse, and thousands of horses were fighting.

The mournful firelight illuminated the silent night sky, and the projection of the waning moon on the horizon reflected each other, sprinkling a bewitching place, and the shocking blood color appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the fresh lives fell one by one.

The 200,000 soldiers and horses of Feiyan Pass were divided into two routes, one was led by the guard general Chen Mo to attack from the west gate of Langcheng, one part occupied the west gate, the other part attacked from the city, and took advantage of the situation to pour into the south gate;

The east gate and the north gate are close to the southern county of the different surname Hou fiefdom, the defenders are already few, plus the granary is on fire, the Taishou is missing, and it is already overwhelming, unable to reinforce the south gate, it is the south city gate guards who are attacked before and after, and the men and horses led by Yu Han attack head-on, and the men and horses led by Chen Mo raid behind the back.

The 100,000 defenders of Langcheng faced the 200,000 troops of Shangfeiyanguan, and it was originally because of Langcheng's unique geographical advantages that they were able to hold on to the city, so that the Tianxing Kingdom could not ask for any benefits, but now the weakest west city gate was broken, and Chen Mo led 100,000 troops to attack directly, and Langcheng was in danger.

Chen Mo and Yu Hanli should cooperate with the outside and cooperate properly, and gradually, the 50,000 defenders of the South City Gate could not withstand the continuous fighting of 200,000 horses before and after, and they were powerless.

The squeak, so weak in the earth-shattering roar, but so clear and audible.

The originally closed gate was opened by someone, and the gap became larger and wider, from an inch wide to a person's width, and then wider.

When the first Celestial Star Nation soldier rushed in outside, everyone hadn't noticed it, but what followed was a wave after wave of people, the silver armor kept colliding, and the bright sword in his hand shone with cold light in the moonlight, and the original cold had already been dyed with blood, a bright red.

"The gates are open—kill—"

In the sound of the collision of weapons, it was originally only mixed with a terrible scream, but I don't know who shouted, and suddenly, all the soldiers of the Heavenly Star Kingdom lifted their spirits as if they had seen victory, and rushed towards Langcheng, which had no support. And Chen Mo's soldiers also rose up to slaughter, slaughtering the enemy soldiers who were blocking the entry of friendly troops.

The fighting outside is in full swing, but in the study of the guard's mansion, it is still a little strange.

"Come, mobilize the troops of the East Gate and the North Gate to support the South Gate and the West Gate, and quickly send someone to Nanjun to ask for reinforcements from the Hou with a different surname-" Zhao Yun glanced at Qingchen, and then turned to the soldiers behind him.

"Yes!" the soldier commanded.

"General Zhao, I advise you not to make unnecessary resistance, there are only 100,000 people in Langcheng, but my Feiyan Pass guard will add the 200,000 troops brought by General Yu to deal with you, which is more than enough. Qingchen looked at Zhao Yun and spoke.

"As the general of Langcheng, it is the duty of the general to defend the city, and the general should do his best to defend Langcheng. After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave.

"You stop!" Qingchen said coldly, "General Zhao is really a hero, and he has to defend it even though he knows that the battle will be defeated and the city will be broken, which is really admirable, but has General Zhao ever thought that if he continues to fight, even if he sacrifices more people, he will not be able to change this established ending." ”

"So what?" Zhao Yun said, "Even so, it is the pride of being a soldier, if Langcheng is lost, this general should die in the city." ”

"Well, you died in the city, and the brothers who defended the city with you died under the butcher's knife of my celestial star, and you were buried with the whole people of Langcheng, as well as your father. Qingchen looked at Zhao Yun coldly and said, "In this way, General Zhao will not be lonely on the road to Huangquan." ”

"How dare you!"

"Why don't I dare? I'm not Lou Xiyu, I won't pity the people in the city who are powerless, I only know that what doesn't suit my heart, kill!" Qingchen never retreated, looked directly into Zhao Yun's eyes, and said the word "kill" coldly.

Zhao Yun looked at the slender Qingchen in front of him, it was hard to imagine that her body contained such a powerful murderous aura, he didn't even doubt it at all, Qingchen could do what he said, if he died for Langcheng, then it would be the entire Langcheng who accompanied him to Huangquan.

At the same time, Qingchen also looked at Zhao Yun intently, and his mind turned back and forth.

The slaughter of the city, Ye Chengcheng did it in the past, but it was also because the plague of the people in the city continued, and she was afraid of involving more people, so she ordered the city to be set on fire; She just made a big gamble when she didn't have any chips of her own.

She is betting on Zhao Yun's benevolence and righteousness, betting that such a general who admires Lou Xiyu will never watch the city he has guarded all his life become a deserted city with his death.

If Zhao Yun insisted on defending to the death, or even martyred the city, then she would lose.

At this moment, time stood still, even the wind in the air seemed to freeze, and the two people looked at each other, as if waiting to see who would bow their heads first.

After a long time, Qingchen finally heard her expectant voice, and at this moment, she knew that she had won the bet, after all, no one could compare to her in terms of speculation. A person who does not draw a line just because Lou Xiyu is an enemy general, but praises him for his good marching and discipline, will not bear to gamble with the lives of the people in the city.

"What will you do to spare the other soldiers and the innocent people in the city?" Zhao Yun asked.

"It's very simple, all I want is Lang Cheng and you, let's make a deal. Qingchen said, "Langcheng is already in my pocket, as long as you surrender, I promise not to slaughter the city, and I will also let the other soldiers under your command leave Langcheng and retreat to Wisteria Ridge." ”

"Is this true?" Zhao Yun was skeptical.

"What do I want so many prisoners for? With General Zhao, I don't even look at 50,000 soldiers. Qingchen said coldly.

Zhao Yun glanced at Qingchen deeply, didn't say anything, turned around and left the Guard's Mansion, and walked outside.

He knew that even if he defended Langcheng, it would be absolutely impossible to defend it, because the enemy army had opened a gap, and the geographical advantage of Langcheng was gone.

What's more, even if Hou with a different surname sends troops to reinforce, when the reinforcements arrive, it will only repeat the process of tonight. But at that time, with the geographical advantages of Langcheng and all the conditions of Langcheng, it was the Tianxing Kingdom that kept the enemy out of the door.

"Childe, don't you want to go and have a look?" Zhan Yu looked at the back of Zhao Yun leaving, and asked.

"Zhao Yun is a righteous gentleman, since he agreed, he will not break his promise. Qingchen shook his head and said so.

"Then what are we going to do now? go out of the city to make peace with General Yu?" asked Huai Jin.

"No, we will wait here, before dawn, Langcheng will definitely be conquered, and General Yu will bring people to patrol us. Qingchen said, and walked out of Zhao Yun's study and came to the front hall of the Shoujiang's Mansion.

At this time, the Guard's Mansion was empty, and from the beginning of this chaos, all the people returned to their rooms and never appeared again, so no one knew what was going on outside, and no one knew that Langcheng, which was originally impregnable, had been turned upside down in an instant.

I don't know how long later, there was a sound of heavy and chaotic footsteps at the door of the Guard's Mansion, and then the gate was opened, and many soldiers with torches appeared at the gate of the Guard's Mansion and poured inside.

Yu Han walked in the front, followed by hundreds of soldiers, and walked straight towards the front hall, when he saw Qingchen sitting on the top, a strange look flashed in his eyes, but he was not the slightest surprised.

"Master Mu. Yu Han bowed his hand and made a gesture to Qingchen very respectfully.

Qingchen originally lowered his head and pondered, but the moment he heard General Yu's voice, he raised his head and saw Yu Han standing in front of him, as well as Zhao Yun, who had gone out before, but was tied up and came back at the moment.

A knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Qingchen said, "General Yu, are you still satisfied with the meeting gift I gave you?"

"The military advisor is clever, but in just ten days, he helped our army get Langcheng. Yu Han said, his tone full of admiration, "It's just that Zhao Yun, the defender of Langcheng, ordered the deputy general to lead the troops to retreat from the north gate and retreat to the Wisteria Ridge, which is closer to the South County, and our army is tired of attacking the city, so it is not suitable to pursue." ”

"General Yu can make up his own mind about these things, so you don't need to ask me. Qingchen smiled, looked at Yu Han's respectful appearance in front of her, and then spoke, "But this General Zhao ...... I also asked General Yu to release him, he is the trophy I exchanged for the lives of the people of Langcheng. ”

"Master Mu, this ......" Yu Han seemed to be a little puzzled when he listened to Qingchen's words.

"Langcheng is broken, and General Lou's main army is almost here, right?" Qingchen didn't intend to explain, but said, "General Yu, send someone to deal with the aftermath, and bury the soldiers who died in the battle of Langcheng this time, regardless of whether they are friends or enemies; ”

"The general understands, it's just that this General Zhao ......" Yu Han pointed to Zhao Yun beside him, and seemed to ask again.

"General Yu doesn't need to ask more, leave General Zhao, I will deal with it, and when General Lou's army arrives, I will explain this matter to General Lou in person. Qingchen stretched out his hand and interrupted Yu Han's words.

When Yu Han saw Qingchen say this, he nodded, didn't say much, and turned to leave. But Zhao Yun said after Yu Han left:

"Your compassion for the soldiers who died in battle shows that you will not slaughter the city at all, but it is ridiculous that I have fallen for your plan again. ”

But you have to admit that this is the best outcome. Even if you continue to fight, you and the soldiers of Langcheng will have no other way but to die. But now, you are alive, and so are the surviving soldiers, who can recuperate in Wisteria Ridge and prepare to fight again, and you ...... There would be a better place to go. Qingchen said.

"I'm just your trophy, as long as you don't hurt my father, you want to kill or chop, listen to me. Zhao Yunbo glanced at Qingchen calmly and said.

"If I were to kill you, I wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to protect you. It's up to you to decide where you want to go. Qingchen said, laughing inexplicably.
