Where is the main force of Hou Jin at this moment?
A question suddenly popped up in Commander Sun's mind. Immediately afterwards, cold sweat instantly soaked his clothes.
No, Wucheng may be in trouble this time!
He suddenly recalled the Xiaoliuzi he had sent, and then cooperated with the escape along the way. A terrible idea suddenly appeared in his mind!
Could it be possible that...these Jin people did this on purpose?
They drove us here deliberately like a flock of sheep in order to convey wrong news to the city lord. This allowed the city lord to place heavy troops at the main entrance to guard against Hou Jin's so-called main force.
But in fact, the Hou Jin people secretly plotted against Chen Cang, chose a pass that was easy to break through, and launched a massive attack.
In this way, even if the city lord discovered the clues and wanted to shrink back to defend, he found that Wucheng had been breached.
If so, even if the army outside the city rushes back to help, it may be too late.
Thinking of this, Commander Sun felt a chill running down his spine.
This time, regardless of the possibility of being exposed, he got on his horse and galloped in the direction of the remaining scouts.
At the same time, Wucheng.
Wu Jing still stood on the city wall and looked far into the distance.
She saw Hou Jin's siege equipment, but the distance was too far and she could only see some outlines.
But for some reason, these siege equipment were lit with torches, as if they were deliberately telling her that the opponent's main force was coming.
At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps came.
"Lord City Lord, something bad has happened! The west city gate... is broken!"
"What did you say!?"
Wu Jing turned around suddenly, with a fierce look in his tiger eyes. But the next moment, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.
"Come here, capture this man! Where is your herald? Why don't you see him coming and report it personally? Do you want to disturb the morale of our army?"
Upon hearing this, the young messenger immediately knelt on the ground, his face full of pain.
"Your Majesty the City Lord, Your Majesty the Herald... He is already dead. He died on the wall of the West City Gate. He was hacked to death by the Houjin people's knives!"
"Not only that, now the west city gate has been completely occupied by the Houjin Thieves. All our people have died."
At this point, the young orderly soldier could no longer restrain himself, held his head and cried loudly.
"The herald was worried about my young age, so he sent me here to deliver the message first. But I didn't expect that he would be hacked to death by the swarming Houjin thieves just after I walked more than ten feet!"
"Lord City Lord, our brothers are all dead!"
Hearing this, Wu Jing's whole body felt like it was struck by lightning. Her upright posture froze in place. For a moment, she didn't know how to speak.
"I sent a lot of reinforcements, they..."
"They are dead too, all dead! Those Houjin thieves are like locusts passing through the border, dense and endless... The brothers risked their lives, but they still can't resist the attack of the Houjin thieves!"
"The personal guards listened to the order, and all the personal guards immediately rushed towards the west city gate for reinforcements. Even if they risk their lives, they can't let the Houjin thief step into the area where the people live."
"The defenders at the main gate... separated into two teams and rushed over to help."
Wu Jing quickly regained her composure and issued two orders in succession with a stern face. She knew that this moment was the most critical moment for Wucheng! As the lord of a city, she absolutely cannot mess up her position at this moment.
When the chief of guard heard this order, he already understood what Wu Jing was thinking. He opened his mouth several times, but in the end he didn't open his mouth to refute.
Because he also knew very well that if the Hou Jin thief were allowed to enter people's homes, the consequences would be disastrous!
But at this moment, the messenger who was holding his head and crying loudly shouted again:
"Lord City Lord, these people are simply not enough!"
"Later, the golden thieves were overwhelming and occupied the west gate. Sending so few people there is no different from sending someone to death!"
When Wu Jing heard this, her heart was filled with ice.
On one side is the main force of the Hou Jin people watching with eager eyes, and on the other side is the West City Gate that has already fallen.
How should she choose?
At this moment, Wu Jing's mind recalled a question that her father had asked back then.
"My child, if Wucheng is destroyed one day, what will happen to the Wu family?"
At that time, Wu Jing was only in her prime, so she answered casually:
"Then we will live and die with Wucheng."
However, when this problem was put before her again, she suddenly understood that the burden on her shoulders was actually so heavy.
To live or die with Wucheng is simple.
But how innocent are the tens of thousands of people in Wucheng!
Wu Jing gritted her teeth, hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly said:
"The defenders at the main gate cannot move. Send people to the Wu family to spread the news, saying that Wucheng is at a critical moment and it is time for the Wu family to take the stage."
"No need!"
At this moment, a middle-aged man with half a century of sideburns and only one arm left walked over.
His voice was like a bell, and he stood there like a hill.
"Jing'er, your third uncle already knows about the current situation. Isn't it the West City Gate? Third uncle will come back as soon as he goes!"
Wu Jing took a deep look at the third uncle in front of him and fell into silence.
If there is one last man left in the Wu family, it is the third uncle in front of him.
When the third uncle was young, he was seriously injured on the battlefield. From then on, he was unable to recover and locked himself in a side courtyard for twenty years.
Originally, my father intended to pass on the position of head of the family to his third uncle. Naihe was bluntly rejected by the third uncle.
His father had no choice but to pass on the title of head of the family to himself. From beginning to end, this third uncle never stepped out of the side courtyard.
Unexpectedly, twenty years later, he would choose to come out again!
At this moment, Wu Jing burst into tears and her eyes turned red.
This is the Wu family, who are willing to do anything to protect this martial city!
"Everything... I'll leave it to my third uncle! I..."
"Jing'er, it's a good job to guard the city gate. Third uncle is leaving!"
The one-armed middle-aged man waved his hand behind him, immediately got on his horse, and headed towards the west gate with the servants of the Wu family.
Looking at his retreating figure, all the people standing on the city wall fell silent.
I saw that behind the third uncle of the Wu family, there were all disabled veterans with missing arms and legs.
They are obviously a team composed of the old, weak, sick and disabled, but at this moment, their eyes burst out with terrifying murderous intent!
This murderous aura was so terrifying that even the defenders on the city wall felt chills.
At this moment, a roar sounded from the team.
"I, Sun Dafu, have been in the army for five years and killed 26 people!"
"I, Li Liangzi, have been in the army for seven years and killed 51 people!"
"..."
"I, Wu Hong, have been in the army for eleven years and killed 501 enemies..."
