Chapter 208: Into the City

With Qianjiang's order, tens of thousands of soldiers immediately stopped their pace of advancement, and the dense black-scaled army repaired in place, entrenched outside the mathematics of the city of Baiyue County, although the knife was not unsheathed, and the arrow was not bowed, but the eyes of each soldier under the black helmet contained a touching killing intent.

The five fingers are short and thick, and the calloused big hand pulls the reins, and the horse under Qianjiang's crotch seems to have a spiritual connection with his master, dragging Qianjiang slowly forward.

As the most powerful deputy general of Qianjiang, the number two person of the Black Scale Army, after seeing Huer and the rest of the generals in cloaks explain their orders, he lightly added a horse's belly to his legs, followed the official road, and walked towards the back of Qianjiang in front.

Inside the city gate of Baiyue County, at this time, the shocking, earthquake-like shaking has completely subsided, and the people in the city who were originally waiting for the city gate to open have fled for their lives by the terrifying aura before, leaving only the goods scattered all over the place.

The entire Ximen County of Baiyue County was deserted, leaving only a few freight horses pulling the cart plates, standing cramped and restless on the wide avenue, seeing these horses, their noses kept ringing, and they kept stepping on the horses' hooves, as if something dangerous was constantly approaching them.

His pale face was inlaid with a pair of red, bloodshot eyes, and the corners of Zhang Si's mouth couldn't stop shaking because of excitement, seeing him move his steps quickly, he walked quickly towards the West City Gate.

Previously, under the might of the generals defending the city, Zhang Si was already like ashes, and he was frightened, at this time, coupled with the sudden hope, the great joy washed over his thin body like a storm and waves, and I saw that Zhang Si, who looked excited, immediately weakened his legs, and went to the ground.

Liu Laohan was anxious, and hurriedly helped Zhang Si, he had not been to a private school for a few days, and had lived for most of his life, for all kinds of things in this world, his heart was a little clear, those high-ranking officials, where did they have this leisure to know the life and death of these ordinary people, not to mention the generals who had been on the battlefield and had blood on their hands, most of them had a hot temperament, and in the eyes of these people, there was no difference between a life and the chicken, duck and fish meat that was served to the table for people to eat。

Thinking of this, Liu Laohan's wrinkled old face couldn't help but reveal a hint of helplessness:

"Little Si'er, these military masters are all masters who kill people without blinking, you go and beg them, in case you annoy them, the consequences will be great!"

When Zhang Si heard this, he naturally knew that Liu Laohan was worried about his safety, but at the moment of opportunity, he was timid and left his mother's life.

Slowly breaking free of Master Liu's palm holding him, Zhang Sitong's red and bloodshot eyes showed a determined look, and he saw his dry and skinned lips opening and closing slightly:

"Grandpa Liu, you don't have to persuade me anymore, now the opportunity is in front of me, if I retreat today, I will always live in self-blame and guilt in the future, even if I risk my life today, I must take the herbs to save my mother!"

Zhang Si's voice was already a little hoarse, seeing his unwavering look, Liu Laohan knew that he couldn't persuade him, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Some thin bodies slowly straightened up, Zhang Si looked at the tall city gate not far away, and the soldiers who were busy defending the city, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.

Holding back his legs that were shaking with fear and excitement, Zhang Si's soles rubbed against the ground, and walked towards the city gate step by step......

A breeze blew in the air, striking the clearing, where the goods were scattered and messy, and the fallen leaves rolled down on the ground like wheels, with a rustling sound, and the shouts of the defending generals were heard ahead, mixed with panicked footsteps, and the sound of steel colliding with armor.

Tightening the thin linen clothes on his body, Liu Laohan looked around, now in addition to those soldiers who were responsible for cutting the city gate, there were only two people left, he and Zhang Si were left, the old but not cloudy eyes looked at Zhang Si's back in front of him with some regret, Liu Laohan shook his head slightly, and then hid in a nearby shop, and saw him leaning out of the half-pulled body, watching the changes in front of him, Zhang Si after all, he grew up watching from a young age, let Liu Laohan ignore it, it is impossible to do it.

"Hurry up, open the city gates, and welcome the Black Scale Army into the city!"

The general defending the city held a spear in his hand, roaring with all his might, seeing his solemn face, but he was not flustered, the black scale army entered the city, this is not a trivial matter, it is absolutely not sloppy.

The general knew that the Black Scale Army was expected to enter the city in three days, but for some reason, it was three days ahead of schedule.

Under the command of the defending general, dozens of soldiers were arranged in two rows, and two of them trotted to the city gate, pulled open the doorpost the thickness of a bucket, and pressed their shoulders against the heavy door panel, and made a gesture to open the gate.

I saw the general defending the city speaking to a soldier:

"You go to the county guard mansion quickly and report the situation here to the county keeper without delay!"

"Yes!"

When the soldier received the order, he quickly left.

As a subordinate of Commander Liu, he should have reported the incident to him first, but now that the incident happened suddenly, in order to save time, he had to report it directly to the county guard.

Baiyue County is located on the coast, which is a military strategic place, even if there is a war, because of the location of the land, Baiyue County is also very safe, but even so, the four gateways in the southeast, northwest and northwest are still built with a first-class military industry.

The thickness of the city gate is enough to be a foot, and there are Dao Dao fine iron inlay reinforcements, even two strong soldiers, without the disturbance of external forces, want to open this heavy city gate, it is quite laborious.

"Drink!"

The two of them couldn't help but let out a loud shout in their mouths, and they saw that the palms of their hands holding the handles of the city gate turned red because they were too hard.

As the city gate opened inch by inch, dozens of soldiers defending the city, including the general, unconsciously tensed up, they would face the world-famous Black Scale Army!

Originally, in the barracks, those soldiers who were lucky enough to see the Black Scale Army, and even fought side by side with it, all talked about it as their honor and talking point, but now they can not only face the Black Scale Army, but also meet the living legend, the general of the Black Scale Army, this is what many military men dream of!

The soldiers guarding the city present all knew that such a big man as Qianjiang would not be able to greet him if he said anything, let alone the guard of this county, even if the state lord of the five states in the world was a head shorter in front of Qianjiang.

Now that the Black Scale Army was three days earlier than the original day, this gave them the opportunity to witness the Heavenly Dragon, how could they not be excited?

The palm of the hand holding the spear was already stained with sweat, and the general guarding the city carefully arranged his armor and helmet with a solemn face, and then saw him take a deep breath, his eyes staring at the slowly opening city gate......

"Squeak ~ Squeak ~ "

The extremely heavy city gate, under the full impetus of the two soldiers, slowly opened a gap, and suddenly, the faint murderous aura that could be felt when the city gate was left became more and more unbearable!

"Bang Dang~"

The city gate was completely pushed open, and the eyes of all the soldiers guarding the city involuntarily looked out of the door, and the scene in front of them, even if they had been on the battlefield and killed people as casually as chopping melons and vegetables, their faces also changed color, and they saw their eyes wide open, and the palms holding weapons were involuntarily locked.

The vast murderous aura has become a substance, the breeze blew the cloak of the defending general, seeing that he was a little unbearable and took two steps back, his heart had already churned up in the turbulent waves, this was the first time he saw the legendary black scale army, it was indeed the tiger and wolf army that made the surrounding countries of the Qianlong Dynasty famous, even if it was faintly rooted in, the breath was restrained, there was such a terrifying power, if these tens of thousands of legions were killed together, how terrifying it could be, I couldn't believe it!

The city gate opened, and Zhang Simu, who was standing in the distance, showed joy, but before he could come to his senses, the breath that seemed to rise from the depths of hell enveloped him instantly!

Zhang Si's thin body had already trembled like chaff, his bloodshot eyes contained irrepressible fear, and the scene in front of him was like the end of the sky and thunder, which really shocked him in place......

The frightened gaze looked out of the city gate, far away, it was pitch black as ink, stretching for several miles, the terrifying murderous aura came from there, and along the wide official road, there were two figures slowly approaching, one of them was a middle-aged man, riding a horse under his crotch, wearing a black and simple long knife at his waist, and a jet-black armor, carved with delicate and noble silver patterns.

Looking at it from afar, he is as calm and unshakable as a mountain of ten thousand catties, but the momentum is looming, making people imperceptible, the steel lion that stretches for miles is already terrifying, but this middle-aged man with a plain appearance seems to have some magic power, attracting everyone's attention.

"Puff~"

Zhang Si couldn't bear the murderous aura rolling in, and then sat down on the ground, together with the veteran generals who had experienced killing like the generals who defended the city, they were forced to retreat again and again by this murderous aura, Zhang Si was just an ordinary person, how could he hold on.

The soldiers present were all tense, even if they were on the battlefield, they were not as nervous as now, and the general defending the city stood in the middle of the city gate, witnessing the slow approach of two figures on the straight official road......

Qianjiang gently tightened the reins, and the horse's hooves stopped moving forward, and stood in front of the city gate with Huer.

The general defending the city immediately did not dare to be careless, and when he saw the corner of his eye, he quickly swept the appearance of the two of them, and his heart was clear, so he quickly lowered his body forward, knelt on one knee, and bowed his hand and said:

"Li Mao, the general of the lower official guarding the city, meet the general, General Huer!"
