Under the high wall, there was a mass of darkness, like an army pressing down on the city. They had elite soldiers and good generals. Once the Beiliang people's bows and arrows were shot, their front shield guards would raise their shields high to protect the center of the army.
This army is so powerful and indestructible. No wonder the people of Beiliang change their expressions when they hear about the Jin soldiers.
Shen Dingzhu's eyes wandered around, wanting to see who was the marshal leading the army. Unexpectedly, a sharp arrow suddenly grazed the side of her head and flew behind her.
She was pulled back hard by the famous captain just now, and fell to the ground: "What the hell are you doing standing there in a daze? Shoot, shoot them!"
The captain took the crossbow from her hand and attacked fiercely. Finally, there were no more arrows, and then he threw it into Shen Dingzhu's arms.
"Captain, the fire sticks are here!" A group of injured Beiliang soldiers came over carrying firewood soaked in oil. They ignited the fire and threw it down.
This is already the last resort in Guizhou.
However, Shen Dingzhu realized something, his expression changed, and he hurriedly shouted: "You can't throw fire sticks!"
Unfortunately, no one listened to her. The burning sticks were thrown down, and huge white smoke soon rose. Not only was the situation of the Jin army invisible, it also made them cough.
Shen Dingzhu choked on the smoke and felt uncomfortable, bending over and coughing.
At this moment, in order to confirm whether the enemy's position had changed, the captain went out to observe carefully.
A sharp "whoosh" sound broke through the air, mixed in with the chaotic sounds.
When the sharp silver arrow broke through the smoke and approached the captain's face, it was already too late for him to dodge.
There was a muffled "dong" sound, and Shen Dingzhu watched helplessly as the captain who was still talking to her just now was pierced by a silver arrow in the head, and fell down dead with his eyes open.
The surrounding soldiers suddenly burst into chaos, cursing and so on. Shen Dingzhu's face was stiff and covered with thick plaster, but he could not hide the frightened realization in his eyes.
Such precise archery...
However, the most important thing is that she recognizes this silver arrow!
Shen Dingzhu panicked and crawled through the crowd to check the words engraved on the tail of the arrow.
The word "Shen" is dazzling.
At this moment, Shen Dingzhu's eyes were sore, it was her elder brother's arrow!
Is the person leading the army her eldest brother Shen Lan?
Shen Dingzhu stood up impatiently, and when he was about to take a closer look on the city wall, he was suddenly knocked down by a soldier on the side: "Be careful!"
The Jin army below fired thousands of arrows, slaughtering the remaining soldiers still standing on the city wall.
Shen Dingzhu couldn't move. When the movement around her became smaller, she pushed away the soldier who was pressing on her.
He was exhausted and passed out. Shen Dingzhu stood up in panic and murmured: "Brother, it's my brother..."
However, when she and the remaining soldiers who were still alive looked down, they saw that the smoke had dissipated, and the Jin army that had just been pressing down on the city in darkness had actually disappeared?
Where have they gone! ?
Shen Dingzhu hurriedly ran along the city wall until he saw the tail of a black team, riding a horse and quickly disappearing into the dense woods.
"Brother, brother!" Shen Dingzhu's voice was so choked that she became hoarse. No one heard her cry.
Shen Dingzhu's mood was complicated, and his watery eyes stared closely at the continuous mountains not far away.
If her eldest brother is leading the army, he must know that if they persist for a moment now, the Beiliang people will not be able to hold on anymore, and when the city is broken, they will be able to rush in.
But he chose this time to mobilize his troops and leave. What was he going to do?
The city gate was closed from the inside, and Shen Dingzhu could not get through the exit. He could only temporarily follow the remaining wounded soldiers to their temporary camp in the forest to the north.
Almost all the people in the city have gathered here to stay with them so as not to stay in the city. In the front are the Jin troops, and behind them are the rebels who immediately looted here from White Lion City.
At night, there are a few stars.
There were several fires burning in the barracks. People gathered around the fires with dull eyes, and heavy dark clouds hung over everyone's heads.
Shen Dingzhu sat beside a fire, hugging his knees and considering his next choice.
The rebel army is definitely on the way and will definitely arrive tomorrow night at the latest. Before then, she believes that her brother Shen Lan's tactics must have captured Yuyang Pass.
But before that, she had to protect herself.
At this moment, several disabled soldiers around him started talking about it——
"You said that the elite soldiers of the Jin Kingdom suddenly disappeared. Where did they go?"
"They must have been scared away by our unyielding momentum!"
"Impossible, even a fool can see that we were stubbornly resisting, and they suddenly ran away. Could it be that they came around from the north and wanted to catch us off guard?"
Shen Dingzhu suddenly cheered up: "Is there a way in from the north?"
The man glanced at her: "Of course there is, it's just a wooden bridge connecting two mountains. Not many people know about it, so I guess it must be the general of Jin who sent spies out and discovered this road. If it's from A surprise attack from the north, where there is no wall to defend."
The soldiers around him were not worried at all: "Gao Xiaowei had guessed it a long time ago. When he was still alive, he asked us to cut down the bridge from the north! I don't believe it. No matter how powerful they Jin people are, they can still Can’t fly?”
Shen Dingzhu listened, stood up silently, and walked quietly into the forest. She walked quickly towards the wooden bridge to the north that they said.
It was extremely dark in the forest. Shen Dingzhu picked up a tree stick, lit it with a flint, and then hurried forward.
Until she walked two sticks of incense, her steps were urgent and fast, like her heart returning home. Thinking that her elder brother was right across the way, she couldn't wait even more. Fine sweat broke out on her face, and she wiped it off with her sleeves. Gradually, Revealing an originally delicate and fair face.
Shen Dingzhu walked through the dense forest and suddenly saw the wooden bridge that stretched between the two mountains. Sure enough, as they said, the wooden boards built on it had been chopped into pieces, and only two ropes as thick as a baby's arms were involved. , looks shaky and very unstable.
However, what Shen Dingzhu didn't expect was that when she arrived, there was actually a thin man in black who was neatly fixing the wooden boards on the bridge.
The man had no iron armor on his body, only light clothes. When he heard the footsteps, he suddenly raised his head with a fierce look in his eyes.
Shen Dingzhu's heart trembled.
They are Jin soldiers! As expected, they were preparing to take a detour and go directly to the city.
Before she could react, the man blew the bird whistle first, and many crisp sounds sounded in the darkness. Shen Dingzhu had just touched the crossbow and knew that this was the sound of the arrow being loaded.
She hurriedly waved and shouted: "Brother, it's me, it's me!"
Suddenly, a sharp shout came from the forest: "Put down the arrow!"
Shen Dingzhu hurriedly ran forward a few steps and stood by the broken bridge. Her whole face was illuminated by the moonlight, and she looked across anxiously.
Until, there was a tall figure, piercing through the darkness, quickly walking out of the dense forest, looking at her from a distance across the broken bridge.
The moment she saw such familiar eyebrows, Shen Dingzhu was stunned and subconsciously took half a step back.
Xiao Langyan... could actually be Xiao Langyan? ! He actually led the troops himself? !
Under the moonlight, the man was tall, and his eyebrows were deeper and colder than when they parted a year ago. However, at this time, the thin eyes looking at Shen Dingzhu gradually turned red, and even his usually stable mood was shaken. It made waves.
Xiao Langyan's voice trembled, and hot ecstasy rose in his thin black eyes: "You are not dead, you really are not dead! I have been looking for you this year, do you know?"
Shen Dingzhu's dark eyes shone with luster. She opened her lips and was about to say something when she heard Xiao Langyan say: "Don't move. I'm coming here. I'm coming here right now!"
He stepped forward, and when he saw that he was about to step on the unpaved planks, he was so frightened that a group of soldiers rushed to stop him.
"Your Majesty, be careful! The broken bridge is dangerous!"
Xiao Langyan's black eyes looked at Shen Dingzhu sincerely. Deep in his eyes, the full love was like a burning inner fire, surging like a prairie fire.
He was afraid that she would soon dissipate in the wind like a scent in his dream.
The hoarse voice actually had a bit of trembling and pleading: "Just wait for me for a moment, and the wooden bridge will be built soon. You stay here and don't go anywhere. Let me watch you and don't leave my sight."
