Commander Sun did not know that after they left, a group of Houjin cavalry leaned out from the surrounding grass.
The leader was a Houjin man with a beard and blue eyes. He looked at the direction in which Commander Sun was escaping, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
General Jin is indeed a famous general of the Later Jin Dynasty. He has obviously figured out the plans of these Zhou people.
These Zhou people have always claimed to be from a civilized country, but now it seems that they are not as smart as the sheep on the grassland!
"Everyone listens to orders and keeps distance while creating pressure on these two-legged sheep."
"Today we are the shepherd dogs on the grassland, driving these two-legged sheep back to Wucheng. Do you understand the order?"
"clear!!"
…
Wucheng, on the city wall,
Wu Jing bent her bow and nocked an arrow, and shot down the leading officer with just one arrow.
This arrow was like a command. After one arrow achieved success, thousands of arrows were like raindrops, densely shooting at the galloping Houjin cavalry.
At this moment, these post-Jin cavalrymen had realized their fate.
But instead of running away, they rushed to the city gate with all their might. It was as if that majestic city gate was their way to the highest heaven!
A Houjin cavalryman was pierced through the chest by an arrow, but instead of being afraid, his whole face was filled with madness!
"For the sake of the highest heaven, kill!!"
There was another Houjin cavalryman whose horse was hit by several arrows and fell to the ground dying.
But he still refused to give up, and actually ran towards the city gate on foot with his sword in hand.
But in just a few breaths, he was pierced by thousands of arrows and died...
On the city wall, the Wucheng defenders who had not experienced war for a long time were stunned.
They didn't understand why these Houjin people went to die one after another. It was obvious that their attack had no meaning at all!
At this moment, many young soldiers suddenly realized the terror of the Houjin people.
They gradually understood why, in the words of their fathers, the Houjin people were as terrifying as wild wolves.
Wu Jing's face was gloomy, looking at the dead Houjin Cavalry, a flash of worry in his eyes.
She felt that right in front of her at this moment, a big net was slowly unfolding.
But unfortunately, she didn't have any clue.
At this moment, the sound of rapid footsteps broke Wu Jing's thoughts.
"City Lord, something serious has happened!!"
"The west city gate was attacked by the Houjin people!"
"Those Houjin people are like locusts, swarming into the city gate in waves. They are like crazy and don't care about their own life or death!"
Upon hearing this piece of information, Wu Jing felt her vision go dark, and the smell of blood poured into her mouth.
"A bunch of losers! Aren't the keys in the hands of three people? Why is there still something wrong with the West City Gate?"
The herald trembled and said:
"The city lord didn't know something. Those people died and fled. They have disappeared long ago."
"Where is the guard at the west city gate? Why didn't he stop him?"
"Lord City Lord, Lord Guardsman has...died in battle."
At this moment, the anger in Wu Jing's heart had burned to the extreme.
But as the lord of a city, she knew very well that she needed to calm down.
Now the fate of the entire Wucheng is in her hands. If she is not careful, she may die, but the entire Wu family and even the people of Wucheng are in danger!
Wu Jing took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart.
At this moment, she looked like an angry tiger, with terrifying eyes!
"Go and tell the garrison officers at the east gate and north gate that if the city gates are lost, I, the city lord, will definitely take off their heads!"
"In addition, mobilize the garrison near the West City Gate to kill these Houjin thieves at the West City Gate no matter what."
"Even if you die, you will still be used as a sandbag to block the door of this city lord. Do you understand?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the herald's face turned pale to the naked eye.
As a herald, he knew exactly what the city lord's order meant!
He knew that this night was destined to be uneventful, and many people might never have the chance to see the rising sun again.
But he also knew in his heart that behind them were countless people who had no ability to resist.
If they don't die, all the men, women, and children in the city will die!
Thinking of this, a flash of determination flashed in the herald's eyes.
"Don't worry, City Lord, I will pass on the order right now!"
"Today, we swear to the death to coexist and die with Wucheng!"
Wu Jing nodded slightly and looked at the herald with a bit of relief.
She watched the herald turn around and walk away quickly, hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at her bodyguard and said:
"Immediately separate a group of people from the personal guards to rush to the west gate. We must drive the Houjin people out of the city gate within two hours!"
Hearing this, the captain of the guard had a flash of worry in his eyes.
He knelt down on one knee, cupped his hands and said sincerely:
"City Lord, the meaning of our existence is to protect the City Lord. At the west city gate, the City Lord can send a group of defenders from the main gate to rush over for reinforcements. City Lord, please think twice about mobilizing personal guards!"
"Think twice? There is nothing to think twice about!"
Wu Jing sneered and looked into the distance, as if penetrating the endless darkness.
"The siege equipment of the Hou Jin people has not yet been unveiled. How can the defenders at the main gate be easily mobilized?"
"The captain of the personal guard listened to the order and quickly dispatched a team of elites to assist the west city gate. Set off immediately, without any mistakes! Anyone who disobeys the order will be dealt with according to military law!"
As soon as he said this, a wry smile appeared on the cheek of the guard commander.
But the next moment, he immediately got up and arranged a group of personal guards to rush to the direction of the west city gate.
But after that, he almost never left Wu Jing, always alert to the movements around him.
…
Outside Wucheng,
Commander Sun and his party, after experiencing several more interceptions by the Houjin cavalry, only less than ten cavalry were left.
At this moment, even though Commander Sun was thinking about his family in Wucheng, he still couldn't suppress the despair in his heart.
He was also injured at this moment, half of his shoulder was stained red with blood, and half of the feather arrow still remained on his shoulder.
Waves of weakness came over him, and Commander Sun felt his eyes turning black. If he hadn't been worried about his wife, children, and children in the city, he would probably have fallen to the ground.
But at this moment, a rapid exclamation woke up Commander Sun, who was almost in a coma.
"Commander, look, there are a lot of siege equipment over there!"
As soon as these words came out, Commander Sun immediately widened his eyes and cheered up.
He followed the sound and saw a number of siege vehicles and huge logs vaguely visible among the mountains and forests not far ahead.
"Here, really here!"
Commander Sun was trembling with excitement. He suddenly felt that God had favored him this time.
"Xiao Liuzi, you take two people back with you. We will fight to the death to bring the information here back to Wucheng. Do you understand?"
