The soldiers on the city wall heard the sound of charging below the city. All the soldiers were very scared. They also knew that there was a big battle outside the city today, but there were hundreds of thousands of troops outside. How could the enemy conquer it so quickly? The person guarding the formation is the Protector of the Country, Zhao Xuanyi!
When all the soldiers looked down, they saw an army of only two hundred people rushing over from the flanks. After this group of people came to the city, they shouted loudly and did not pay attention to the soldiers guarding the city at all!
The soldiers guarding the city were very angry when they heard the insults of this group of people. With such a small force, they dared to come to Guanghua Gate and make noises. If they set up a tent next to the toilet, they would be dead!
"Defense...someone is attacking the city!" a defending soldier shouted loudly.
The soldiers on Guanghua Gate immediately defended themselves, everyone took their positions and performed their duties! Prepare weapons such as wood, falling rocks, tung oil, etc.!
"Hurry, hurry, hurry... get up to the city wall!"
[Kakakaka...! ] After a special sound, hundreds of men in snow-white robes were seen rushing up to the city wall, holding a special crossbow in their hands. The biggest difference between this crossbow and ordinary crossbows is that there are five arrows on it. The arrow looks very special!
Hundreds of Moon Guards rushed up to the city wall and immediately came to the front line. After setting up the five-star crossbows, they saw that there were five thousand defenders on Guanghua Gate. They were frightened by these two hundred people and were on full alert? It’s a bit embarrassing to spread the word!
"What's your name? You are so young, how dare you come to attack the city! Go home quickly, wash up and sleep! You are so full!" One of the soldiers guarding the city really couldn't see it. Go down and shout!
"Hahaha...!" Others laughed when they heard it!
When Cao Yuxiu heard the ridicule of the soldiers on the city wall, he did not show an angry expression on his face. Instead, he smiled softly and looked up at the group of soldiers guarding the city. "I see, you don't think highly of us because we have few people? That's fine." ! Let’s see if you can still laugh after a while! Everyone, show up!” Cao Yuxiu shouted loudly!
After Cao Yuxiu shouted angrily, he saw many people walking out of the woods on the side, led by a cavalry team of hundreds of people. They were all wearing animal skins and looked fierce. Behind them were a group of people wearing red. The people in the robes covered themselves so tightly that their faces could not be seen at all!
After the two teams came out, the soldiers on the city wall didn't have any sense of crisis after seeing them. After all, all of them together were less than a thousand people, so they were very relaxed!
They were about to laugh, but the next scene made them stop laughing. They saw another army walking out of the woods. This group of people were all infantry, wearing neat military uniforms and holding various weapons in their hands, such as long guns, short knives, etc. Shields, bows and more!
And as the number of people increased, people continued to come out from behind. Seeing that the number of people on the other side was almost over 10,000, this made the soldiers guarding the city not in the mood to laugh, but they also heard a special sound in their ears. sound!
[Squeak...crack...! 】When the four siege trebuchets were pushed out from a distance, the hearts of the defenders were instantly broken! Everyone's face is blank, their eyes are lifeless, the weather is hot, but their breath is cold!
"Quick, defend, total defense!" the defending general shouted loudly!
"Yes...!" After this scene, there were no more jokes. All the soldiers stopped joking and launched a full-scale defense! The defense equipment was constantly being moved up and down the city!
Cao Yuxiu looked at the panic on the city wall and showed a satisfied smile, "This is how it should be, brothers, prepare!"
"Yes...!" Tens of thousands of soldiers outside the city have begun to prepare, all kinds of bows and arrows are fully loaded, and the four trebuchets have begun to load stones and make final adjustments!
"What nonsense, if you return to the palace now, how will the soldiers who defend the city view the royal family? I must not do this.
"Yes!" After hearing this, Nanzhu did not hesitate. He immediately swung the reins and drove the unicorn chariot towards the city gate!
In the palace, all the civil and military officials gathered in the main hall. Because they heard that fighting had begun outside the city since the morning, these civil and military officials were terrified and didn't know if Zhao Xuanyi could hold on? Everyone is anxious in the main hall at this moment.
point!
"Report...!" A clear female voice came, and Xilan quickly rushed into the main hall. He knelt on the ground and shouted loudly, "Prince Qi, the enemy suddenly sent an siege army of tens of thousands of people, and they are currently under Guanghua Gate!!"
"Princess, the Moon Guard has come to report!" Nan Zhu said, pointing to a war horse in front of the carriage.
"So fast?" Zhu Yuejun's eyes were filled with worry, "How many people are there on the other side?"
"What? How is that possible?" Zhu Yuejun shouted in surprise, "The Protector has set up a large formation outside the city. How did these people get here?"
After hearing this, Zhu Yuejun frowned slightly, "About 10,000? King Yong'an's army is called 300,000. Judging from this number, it must be a special siege army that goes deep behind enemy lines. The large army must be on the frontal battlefield with the protector of the country." Justice fights!"
Zhu Yuejun turned to look at Xilan, "Go back to the palace quickly and mobilize all the Qilin guards in the palace to guard the city gate together. If the city gate is lost, the palace will not be safe!"
"But Princess, you?" Xilan asked.
"My subordinates don't know!"
"Where is the eldest princess at this moment?" Zhu Wenyu asked hurriedly.
At this moment, on the highway in the capital city, a huge carriage was running quickly. There were three war horses beside the carriage, and three beautiful girls in white were sitting on it. These people were none other than the eldest princess's personal maids!
Zhu Yuejun was sitting in the carriage, feeling very confused, but her expression was very calm. She had made preparations today. If Zhao Xuanyi defended the capital, she would confer him an official title. If he failed, she would not live alone, even if it was Even if you die, you can't let a rebellious minister like King Yong'an be humiliated!
Nanzhu pulled the reins hard, and the Qilin chariot stopped instantly. Zhu Yuejun was sitting in the carriage, and his body shook inside the carriage. His face was very angry. He opened the door and walked out. He turned to look at Nanzhu, "How are you driving?"
"No, the eldest princess concluded that the Protector is still leading his army to fight the enemy on the battlefield. The number of people who came this time is so small. It should be a special army sent by the enemy to attack the city gate!" Xilan shouted.
Zhu Yuejun turned around and saw a man in a white cloak kneeling next to the carriage. "Princess Qi, something bad has happened! A group of enemy troops have arrived outside Guanghua Gate and are ready to attack the city!"
Nanzhu raised his head and looked at Zhu Yuejun, "Elder Princess, let's go back to the palace first? It's no longer safe on the city wall now!"
"Take the order!" Xilan hurriedly swung the reins and rode the horse towards the palace!
"About ten thousand, there are three special small teams, the rest are infantry, and there are four trebuchets!"
"I'm afraid it's too late to negotiate with King Yong'an now!"
"What?" Zhu Wenyu stood up from the dragon chair in an instant, with shock on his face
"Wow...!" The whole court instantly became chaotic. Now the enemy has reached the gate of the city. If it continues like this, it is estimated that they will invade the capital. All the ministers are talking about how pale they are and how frightened they are!
"Ouch... what should we do? The enemy came in while I was talking!!"
"It's really too late now. The Emperor has just left, and King Yong'an is so rebellious. What does the late Emperor think of this??" A group of ministers were worried. Each of them seemed to have been pinned to the ground and only needed to be chopped with this big knife. Down!
Zhu Wenyu was not in the mood to watch the panic performance of these ministers. She turned to look at Xilan, "Could it be that the Lord Protector was defeated?"
Zhu Yuejun chuckled, "The emperor guards the gate of the country, the king dies in the country, go quickly!"
"The eldest princess... is at the city gate. She asked me to come and mobilize all the Qilin guards in the palace to the city gate. If the city gate cannot be defended, I'm afraid...?"
"The eldest princess actually went to the city gate??" After Zhu Wenyu finished speaking, he immediately rushed down from the throne and came to the main hall. "Why is the eldest princess not in the palace? Instead, she went to such a dangerous place!"
"The eldest princess said that the emperor will guard the country and the king will die in the country!"
