On the city wall, the guard of the Suzaku Gate looked at Li Dingshan's vanguard troops who were attacking and asked Wen Zhehan for his opinion: "Your Highness..."

The guard general was just beginning to speak when he was interrupted by Wen Zhehan: "Have all our people been arranged?"

The guard was stunned for a moment, then realized what Wen Zhehan was talking about and nodded quickly: "Everything has been arranged."

"Um."

Wen Zhehan responded and then fell silent again.

The guard was in a bit of a dilemma.

What does "um" mean?

Is the city gate open or not?

Should the arrow be released or not?

Give me an accurate answer!

However, although the guard was muttering in his heart, he did not say much on his face.

Judging from the series of arrangements Wen Zhehan made when he came to Zhuque Gate to supervise the battle from the beginning, the guard knew that Wen Zhehan had his own plans.

Besides, there is no big problem in maintaining the status quo.

Although if the city gate is not opened, it will be a pity for the soldiers below, but it is their disadvantage to defend the city. Now, there is nothing wrong with holding the city gate to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of it.

But seeing so many people dying, the guard still felt a little uncomfortable.

It is said that benevolence does not lead troops, but in fact, those who lead troops often cherish every soldier more.

Looking at Wen Zhehan who remained motionless, the guard sighed deeply in his heart and felt sorry for Yan Qing and others.

I'm afraid that this young prince has made up his mind to sacrifice these people.

While the guard was complaining, Li Dingshan's vanguard troops stepped into the range of the archers. Within half a quarter of an hour at most, they would be in close combat with Yan Qing and others.

"Open the city gate."

Wen Zhehan, who had been keeping steady, suddenly spoke, making the guard doubt his ears for a moment.

But he quickly reacted and ordered the soldiers at the city gate: "Open the city gate!"

The heavy city gate opened with a creaking sound.

Si Zha and the commander of the Suzhou Guards looked at each other. Si Zhan stepped forward and said to Yan Qing: "The Yan family's army was severely depleted of energy at the rear. The general led his troops into the city first. Here, the guards led by General Liu are at the rear."

Yan Qing lowered his eyes and glanced at Si Zhi, reined in his horse and ordered everyone in the Yan family's army: "Enter the city!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Qing rode into the city first, followed by Si Zhan and others from the Yan family army.

The commander of the Su Wei army watched Yan Qing and others enter the imperial city and found nothing unusual. He glanced at the approaching enemy troops and shouted: "Retreat!"

The Su guards raised their shields, took a defensive posture, and quickly retreated into the imperial city.

Li Dingshan's vanguard troops chased the retreating Su Wei army, and more than half of the troops stepped into the range of the archers unprepared.

Wen Zhehan stared and ordered: "Fire the arrow!"

The arrows that had been ready to go flew out of the string, and the sky was filled with arrows, covering the large open space from outside the Suzaku Gate to the end of the Suzaku Street.

Li Dingshan's army charged several times, but was stopped by a hail of arrows, so that Li Dingshan had to call off the attack.

Watching the Su Wei army withdraw into the imperial city and the Suzaku Gate door close, Li Dingshan's eyes fell on a certain place on the city wall, his eyes were sinister and a little proud.

Their people have already entered the city. When chaos breaks out in the city, this impregnable imperial city will be destroyed without attack!

Li Dingshan wanted to wait for the Su Wei army to cause trouble in the city, and then took advantage of Wen Zhehan's panic to attack the city. At this time, he was not so impatient: "Rest where you are!"

Li Dingshan's attack stopped, and Wen Zhehan breathed a long sigh of relief and looked along the palace wall.

On top of the city tower, except for the archers with bows and arrows, there were only a few soldiers standing sporadically, and the rest were wooden stakes disguised with armor and spears.

It's just that the night is dark, there are few braziers on the city wall, and the fire that lights up half of the sky makes the city tower even more dim. Even when you get to the city wall, you may not be able to distinguish the real ones from the fake ones.

However, Li Dingshan must use the human sea tactic to attack. When the arrows are used up and the siege ladder is put up, everything will be over.

This is a big gamble.

Fortunately, he won the bet.

In other words, half the battle is won.

The remaining half depends on Yan Qing's attitude...

Downstairs of the Zhuque Gate, Yan Qing rode his horse into the city. Si Zhan was close to Yan Qing from the beginning, but now he was the first to follow Yan Qing.

After entering the city, Yan Qing reined in his horse and stopped. Si Zhan followed and whispered to her: "Little General Yan, it's all up to you now."

Yan Qing immediately stopped on the palace road and watched everyone retreat into the city. The red lacquer gate was slammed shut, and he ignored Si Xi.

Hongzhuang led the Yan family army to quickly gather beside Yan Qing, forming a confrontation with the Su Wei army who came in later.

Si Zhi's intuition was that something was wrong, and he reminded Yan Qing in a cold voice: "Little General Yan, don't let your anger lead to the death of Mrs. Hou!"

Yan Qing glanced at him coldly, raised her head slightly and looked at the red-hot half of the sky outside the Suzaku Gate.

More than two hundred Yan family troops blocked the official road with Yan Qing as the center, blocking the Su Wei army from moving forward.

"General Yan, what are you doing?"

Seeing Yan Jiajun's posture, the commander of the Su Wei Army frowned, his eyes filled with bloodthirsty danger, "Do you want to stop my three thousand army with these two hundred people?"

Yan Qing didn't speak, just looked at the horizon, as if waiting for something.

The commander of the Su Wei Army was disgraced by Yan Qing, and his face became more sinister. He lowered his head and exchanged glances with Si Zhi.

Si Zhan's expression darkened, he gritted his teeth and approached Yan Qing's horse.

The distance between him and Yan Qing was not far. In just one step, he was in front of the horse.

Si Zhan raised the knife hidden in his sleeve and stabbed the horse's neck fiercely!

Its speed was so fast that people could only see a flash of cold light in the sky.

However, what is faster than him is Hongzhuang’s sword!

With just one strike of the sword, the sword in Si Zhan's hand was completely cut off along with his arm.

"ah!"

Si Zhan screamed in pain.

At the same time, a beam of red light rose from behind the burned-red sky.

Yan Qing smiled, lowered his head, and looked at the Su Wei commander who was holding a knife and was about to take advantage of the situation and attack him. Yan Qing kicked the horse in the belly and rushed out like a sharp war horse.

"kill!"

I don't know who shouted, and people appeared from all directions in the palace, surrounded the guards, and strangled them.

Everyone in the Yan family army, who had been holding their breath for a long time, followed Yan Qing's horse and rushed into the Su guards with swords, spears, swords and halberds. They were like wolves and sheep. Wherever they passed, they saw only bloody and broken limbs flying everywhere.

I don't know if it's my own or the enemy's.

It took only a quarter of an hour for the shouts of death and wailing to subside.

Yan Qing wiped the blood from her face and stood among the dead with a gun in her hand. The plain white gun was covered with a layer of bright red blood and full of evil aura. It was the Yan family army who had followed her into the enemy formation. At this time

Not many people dared to get close to her.

People who are crazy about killing cannot tell the difference between friend and foe.

Si Xi, who had his arm broken off, was still alive because he was pushed to the ground by the charging Yan Army because he was standing in front of him.

At this time, looking at Yan Qing among the dead, Si Zhi, who often said the words "If you are alive, my life is up to you at any time" without hesitation, couldn't help but feel sad from the bottom of his heart.

A chill arose.

For the first time in his life, he was so instinctively frightened that he wanted to run away.
