In Zhu'an City, there was a dead silence.

The big city is as empty as a wilderness.

Ding Jiang and Kou Long asked all the sergeants to choose a hidden place to station, and the main street of Zhu'an City was empty.

Ye Guan entered the city gate, walked on the streets of Xiao Se, looked at the streets on the left and right by the moonlight, thinking about the countless corpses that were still placed here a few days ago, and his mood became heavy.

Is it because the Dongwangfu entered the enclave that the people of Zhu'an City were slaughtered, this Ye Guan didn't know. But at this point, he has no ability to redeem it, and can only alleviate the guilt in his heart to the greatest extent.

This time, when he came back, firstly, he wanted to take away the soldiers of the Dongwangfu in the Zhu'an City area, and secondly, he wanted to do one thing easily, that is, to set foot on Qiuchang City and overthrow Shen Tuyan's rule over Qiuchang City.

No matter what secrets are hidden in Zongqiu Mountain, Ye Guan can ignore it, but Shen Tuyan, this person is ruthless, and the clues prove that he is a lackey of Tianqing City, if this person is left in Qiuchang City, the matter of Zhu'an City may still happen.

Although Ye Guan made this decision, he also knew that Shen Tuyan was gone, and Tianqing City would still cultivate the next minions to control an area, and things would not change fundamentally, but with Ye Guan's ability now, it was not easy to do this.

Walking on the cold streets of Zhu'an City, walking forward not far away, you can see the faint fire light of the houses in the front street from a distance, and then walking forward, the pungent smell of smoke came, the left and right were scorched black, a large number of houses were burned or smashed, the ruins and broken walls were piled up on the ground, and Ye Guan frowned.

Judging from these traces, the number of enemy long-range trebuchets mentioned by Kou Long should be quite large, and this main street of Zhu'an Castle has almost been destroyed, and then look behind him, there is a piece of house on the left and right that has been demolished, and the timber used to build the house has been piled up in the distance, forming a fire stop belt to prevent the fire in the city from spreading.

Here, Ye Guan did not find any wounded, and he should have been carried down.

I wanted to take a look at the layout in the city, but at this moment, there was a sudden sound of fierce wind in my ears, Ye Guan looked up violently, but saw several huge fires in the air, smashing straight towards the area near him. The raging flames, in the night, seemed to have a few small suns out of thin air, whistling, and quickly smashed down.

Ye Guan's heart froze, and his figure immediately flashed, and after a few flashes, he left the dilapidated street area. At the moment when he dodged away, there was a violent crash in the area behind him, the flames seemed to ignite the air around him, and a violent burning sensation came, forming a strong wind, sweeping all around, making a loud whimpering sound. Ye Guan stood not far away, his eyebrows cold. A scorching hurricane howled, blowing his shirt and beard, and his robes fluttered and crackled in the air.

He saw a few flames exploding in front of him, feeling the moment of bursting, and seeing those destroyed buildings, Ye Guan immediately knew in his heart what level the enemy's long-range trebuchet was.

This kind of siege weapon, Dongwangfu is not absent, but this enclave trip did not bring, and this kind of specially constructed equipment, it is impossible to build at will during the march, it needs a relatively confidential machine expansion to complete the construction, not a simple slinger. Such a weapon is extremely lethal, and when combined with explosive fire-starters, it is a sharp weapon to look down on in siege warfare.

Fortunately, after the previous battle, Ding Jiang had transferred all the sergeants and materials and left the attack range of this trebuchet, and now this trebuchet attack can only destroy some broken buildings, and other than that, there is no other effect.

Zhu'an City is surrounded by dense towering giant trees on the left and right, and the view on the mountain is very poor, if you want to see the situation in Zhu'an City on the left and right mountains, unless the enemy scouts have Ye Guan's skills, those key positions have ambushes arranged by Kou Long, and it is almost impossible to spy on the detailed layout of Zhu'an City.

In front of him, the raging fire burned again, the bursting fire ignited the surrounding charred buildings, and the billowing smoke rose into the sky again, and the intense fire light illuminated the surrounding streets and Ye Guan's face.

His mind moved slightly, he didn't look at it anymore, he turned his head and walked towards the front city wall, he wanted to go to the city wall to see what kind of formation the enemy army was.

The interior of Takean Castle is very large, and not all areas are houses. The location where the battle took place was located on the back wall of Zhu'an Castle, near which there were large areas of farmland and wasteland, and now, there are patches of tombs.

All the people of Zhu'an City who died mysteriously were properly settled, and such a huge project was not completed even when the enemy began to attack, but even so, Ding Jiang still arranged a brigade to properly dispose of the corpses of all the people. The vicinity of the back wall of the current Zhu'an Castle is full of tombs.

Ye Guan walked out of the city, saw this scene at a glance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but the sound of drums in his ears made him have no heart to mourn his injuries again, and his figure moved, and he came to the foot of the city wall in a few steps.

Here, there are many soldiers of the Eastern Palace, most of whom are hidden close to the city walls, and no matter how powerful the enemy's trebuchets are, they will not be hurt in the slightest.

At this moment, seeing Ye Guan coming, all the sergeants who found it were stunned at first, and then a look of ecstasy immediately appeared on their faces, and then they got up and stood aside respectfully, even so, they couldn't hide the joy on their faces.

As more and more sergeants saw Ye Guan, many sergeants also got up one after another, standing aside with an excited face, not speaking or moving, but their hearts were full of excitement.

The battle in the past few days has been really a bit aggrieved, so that the enemy pressed to fight in the city, although the casualties of this battle are much less than the enemy's, but such a aggrieved battle is still rarely encountered in the East Palace. Although Ding Jiang and Kou Long are veterans of a hundred battles, they are still inferior to Ye Guan in terms of combat and use of soldiers, especially in the position in the hearts of the sergeants, Ye Guan is irreplaceable. The god of war in the East Wangfu is not groundless.

As the news of Ye Guan's return spread, almost all the sergeants stationed near the city wall got the news, and an unprovoked excitement rose up. Ye Guan, the position of the East Palace, can no longer be compared with ordinary generals, his deeds have become a legend passed down by many sergeants, and he himself has also become the object of worship of the sergeants in the army.

This is naturally the result of the deliberate promotion of the East Palace, but Ye Guan's true talent and practical learning are beyond doubt.

Walking in, Ye saw all the sergeants standing up, looking at himself with excitement in his eyes, he smiled slightly, this smile made people feel like a spring breeze.

didn't say anything, Ye Guan just nodded lightly at the surrounding sergeants, and then stepped lightly on the city wall, and the sergeants stationed in the garrison looked at Ye Guan's upward steps, and unconsciously saluted.

Ye Guan's return was tantamount to a dose of stimulant for the soldiers of Dongwangfu who had been fighting for a few days, and every sergeant was gearing up, because they knew that Ye Guan must have a way to lead them to counterattack and finally completely wipe out the enemy army. It's a kind of unprovoked confidence that can't be explained.

The sound of drums in his ears became louder and louder, but he didn't hear the sound of shouting and killing for a long time, Ye Guan quickly climbed the city wall, only to see that on the wide city wall, there were full of supplies, and many sergeants sat behind the battlements, looking at their faces were quite calm, as if they had become accustomed to it. There are obvious burn marks on the ground of the surrounding city wall, which must be the masterpiece of the enemy trebuchet, but for this poured city wall, a simple attack of the trebuchet is impossible to damage the city wall in the slightest. Those attacked have been cleared, leaving only deep charred marks on the ground.

There were obviously more sergeants near the stairs than in other places, and the city wall often had a watchtower built in such a place to observe the situation in the distance, and the same was true of the Zhu'an city wall, but now there were a few sergeants sitting in this watchtower, and a large amount of supplies were piled up here.

Since he saw Ye Guan coming up, he was stunned at first, and then immediately got up, his face was also ecstatic, standing there, looking at Ye Guan's face with excitement, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to speak.

Seeing this, Ye Guan smiled faintly, looked at a few people, and asked softly, "Where is General Ding?"

"Ahh......h In the ......" a sergeant heard Ye Guan open his mouth to ask, and suddenly stammered, and his mouth was a little disobedient.

"Back to the Commander-in-Chief, General Ding is in command on the city wall, and he ordered us to stay here to guard the supplies. The other sergeant was noticeably calmer and replied respectfully.

Ye Guan nodded lightly, smiled slightly, then turned around and went straight to the city wall.

There were a few laughs and curses from the watchtower behind him, and the sergeant who suddenly stammered just now was annoyed.

Ascending the city wall, Ye Guan saw Ding Jiang at a glance, he was not difficult to find, all the sergeants were almost hiding behind the battlements, only this person was just bowing slightly, walking back and forth on the city wall, poking his head out from time to time to observe the movements of the enemy army. This is also because he has confidence in his skills, otherwise a dark arrow will shoot, and he is afraid that he will die.

Ye Guan didn't bow his head at all, went straight to the city wall, like a leisurely stroll, and came to Ding Jiang not far away, at this moment Ding Jiang just poked his head out to see the movement of the enemy army, turned around, and saw an old man in a light cyan robe walking towards him, first stunned, and then immediately reacted, and then took a few steps forward, and shouted at Ye Guan in a low voice: "Lord Commander, bow down, be careful of cold arrows." ”

At the moment when Ding Jiang spoke, Ye Guan only heard a sound of breaking the sky in his ears, he didn't turn his head at all, the fighting energy in his body flowed, he waved quickly with one hand, only to hear a soft sound, and an arrow feather appeared in Ye Guan's hand, this is a cold arrow shot by the enemy, Ye Guan grabbed the bow and arrow in his hand, his brows furrowed slightly, he didn't figure out where this arrow came from.

Ding Jiang took a few steps to Ye Guan's side, saw Ye Guan grab the dark arrow, and hurriedly went up Ye Guan's sleeve, but Ye Guan waved his hand slightly, signaled not to, handed the arrow in his hand to Ding Jiang, and asked, "Where did this dark arrow come from?"

Ding Jiang took the arrow feather, looked at Ye Guan's face, and saw that his face was sinking like water, and he didn't look frightened at all, he put his heart at ease, pointed to the city wall, and said softly: "Commander, see for yourself." ”

Hearing this, Ye Guan frowned slightly, just lying on top of the battlements and looking down, at the moment when he probed, several arrow feathers roared and shot straight towards Ye Guan's head.
