Armill Boots

Author: polarisa

At this moment, the two twin cities in the north and south of the former city are facing each other, the north is the children of the Rong family led by Rong Chengxian, the deputy marshal of Jingxi Wei, and the children of the three families of Mu, Cheng and Xi led by Mu Zhengyu, deputy marshal of Jingxi Wei. Mu Zhengyu's sudden incident was because of the news sent by Acacia Bird in the early hours of this morning: the Rong family's force drawn from Sanwei was completely wiped out by Jingdongwei.

At first, Mu Zhengyu couldn't believe such news. Joke, compared to the other three, the Mu family's strength accumulated for many years is still the weakest among the four major families. However, it was not permissible for him not to believe it, and the patriarch of the Mu clan informed him to immediately guide the three families to rise up, saying that the other two would definitely support it. Sure enough, before Yin, someone from the Cheng family and the Xi family came to deliver the news, beguiling him to start an incident as soon as possible, saying that he would respond to the call.

After discussing and confirming with various families, Mu Zhengyu initiated the military mutiny at three o'clock in the morning. I don't know if it was because the Rong family had taken precautions for a long time, or because the hasty incident was not well thought out after all, the three alliances did not seize the front city as originally imagined. Although taking advantage of the initial panic of the Rong family and destroying nearly one-third of their combat strength, Rong Chengxian, who finally reacted, still succeeded in gathering the children of the Rong family who were originally fleeing in all directions, and with the support of an external force, they quickly quelled the chaos.

In the end, the three alliances could only retreat to the southern part of the former city and confront the northern part controlled by the Rong family, and no one could help anyone. However, no one gave up and waited for news from the other two guards.

The Rong family's combat power has been greatly damaged, especially the combat power at sea, and it can no longer control the three guards of the principality. However, it is a bit difficult to hold two guards with all their might, while one is more than enough. Everyone is waiting for news from the other two guards, if the Rong family misses the other two guards and concentrates manpower to rush over to reinforce Jingxiwei, the three alliances can only retreat in a hurry.

It's just that everyone is very puzzled now, why the two of them have not heard the news for a long time, is it the same as the other two guards? The other two guards have nothing, and there is not much to deal with for a while. A large number of caravans inside and outside the Acropolis were blocked, and the news that the Duchy would attract the attention of other states, and those with bad intentions would inevitably rise to the wind. When the news reached the capital, the Grand Duke was furious, who knew what kind of rain and thunder the four major families would encounter?

The afterglow of the western sky was gone, and the four fields were about to return to darkness at any moment, and the soldiers and men who confronted each other were as anxious as the merchants inside and outside the besieged city. At this moment, suddenly the door of Nancheng opened, and a team of spies belonging to the three alliances rushed into Qiancheng, came directly to the outside of the Chinese army's tent, and reported loudly: "Mu Shuai, there is an urgent military situation!"

In the Chinese military tent, Mu Zhengyu is high above, and there are three generals sitting below. Mu Zhengyu said in a deep voice: "Come in, report!" The spies almost rushed in, knelt down on one leg when they entered the tent, and said in a hurry: "Report to Mu Shuai, the great elder of the Rong family, Rong has been sheng, and he has led five hundred guards to come to reinforcements, and each of them has two horses to advance quickly, and has appeared more than 100 miles outside the city!"

The Muhai Principality has a total of 5,000 guards, of which 1,000 are intermediate and above martial cultivators, and the rest are low-level. Rong has come from afar to reinforce, if it is wartime, it should all be mid-level martial arts cultivation, otherwise it will be useless. At this time, it is impossible to know what kind of configuration it is, it depends on Mu Zhengyu's judgment.

Mu Zhengyu is not a conservative, but he is not thinking about the number or structure, but analyzing why the person who came is Rong Jisheng? Rong Jisheng is the great elder second only to the patriarch, and if the matter is urgent, it should be the patriarch Rong Chengxi. If it weren't for an emergency, there would be no need for Yung Jisheng to lead the battle in person. This made Mu Zhengyu puzzled.

However, the situation did not allow him to think about it repeatedly, and he hesitated again and again, so he had to order: "The Mu family feints, the Xi family covers, one every ten breaths, and evacuate in three parts, the Cheng family retreats first, and the Mu family palace is behind!" The order was issued, and the three armies were immediately moved.

After ten breaths, the gate of the south city of the Twin Cities was opened, the west family took the lead in rushing out, forming a defensive array outside the city gate, the Cheng family hurriedly withdrew, and the Mu family and the Rong family who attacked the north city fought and retreated. Until the Mu family withdrew from the former city, the civil strife was immediately pacified, and the Rong family did not pursue. Even when the three alliances went out of Houcheng and encountered Rong Jisheng's reinforcements, everyone was facing the sky and going their own way.

Everyone knows that no matter which of the four major families it is, it can't stand the toss.

Lu Ercao outside the ancient city pass stood in the team, watching the sunset has sunset, the four fields have returned to one color, the sky is about to fall, and finally knows that he can't enter the pass tonight, and his heart is full of frustration. Most of the caravans had left the straight and came to the north under the cliffs, where they pitched their tents and lit fires for cooking. They are away all year round, and such situations are commonplace.

A few of them looked at the newly formed caravan, and they still stood on the straight road, looking at the ancient city wall from afar, hoping for a miracle. Despite the whole day, they were longing for a miracle and stood stupidly for a day. There were even a few caravans that had been waiting since last night, and until it was night today, they still did not enter the customs.

Suddenly, the running of the soldiers could be heard from the wall of the ancient city, and the shouts could be faintly heard. It seems that the sergeants on the northern wall are being transferred to the southern city one after another, and the gap between the female walls can occasionally be seen crowded. Half a moment passed, two teams of sergeants were added in front of the gate, the wall hung down the air and death lanterns, and two clerks in charge of inspecting the seal appeared in front of the gate, and the caravan began to apply for inspection and customs clearance one by one.

The merchants, who had been waiting for a day, forgot their tiredness and frustration and began to cheer in a state of oblivion. The two sergeants shouted in unison: "Bah! It is strictly forbidden to make noise before the pass!" Everyone was a little restrained, but occasionally they couldn't help but whisper, this said: "Don't forget the agreement during the day, we have to go to the restaurant together tonight!" The one said: "Finally, there is no need to sleep in the open, you have to take a good bath tonight!"

About half an hour passed, and all the caravans were successfully cleared. The gates were closed and the drawbridge was retracted. The lantern was hoisted high on the city wall, and two teams of sergeants stepped on the city wall and began their routine patrol.

In the military tent in the north city of Jingxiwei, an old man who was nearly seventy years old sat at the top, and Rong Chengxian and a cadre of generals accompanied him to talk at the bottom. I only heard Rong Chengxian ask suspiciously: "Great Elder, why is there no news from the two guards in the south and north of the town today, could it be that there is also a rebellion in them?"

Rong has no color on his face, and said in his mouth: "Zhenbeiwei has fallen into the hands of the Xi family, Zhennanwei is now controlled by the Cheng family, and our Rong family only has this one town guard, you must be careful on duty." ”

"Ah, how can this be? Great Elder, how can the patriarch sit and watch the Cheng Xi family succeed?" Rong Chengxian's face suddenly changed color, and he couldn't care about humility anymore and stood up, and asked urgently: "Coupled with the Mu family's Zhendongwei, wouldn't the Mu Chengxi family be on an equal footing with our Rong family?"

Rong Jisheng was still colorless, and continued in his mouth: "The patriarch of Chengxi led the children of the clan, originally broke the Zhendongwei last night, except for Mu Zhengqin's father and son who escaped, the rest were destroyed one by one, but they were defeated when they conquered Qingyunfang, and when they fled by boat, they were attacked by Lizhou, and Chengxi fell into the water by chaos, but he has not been able to find it so far, and he has not seen the Hui people. ”
