Tan Ma did not buy much time for the frontier army.
More than 10,000 people rushed towards the city, and even though they were approaching the city gate, their speed did not slow down at all.
The semaphore was far away and could only convey information about the approximate number of enemies.
In fact, Tanma also observed other things.
The nearly ten thousand cool thieves were not here to attack the city, and their numbers were not enough. In fact, they were in pursuit. There were more than a hundred riders in front of them.
Almost as soon as Tan Ma gave the warning, these hundreds of horses also appeared at the end of the horizon.
The archers quickly boarded the tower, the smoke was lit, the drums beat, and the calm wall suddenly became tense.
The incident happened so suddenly that no one expected Liang Zei to come as soon as he said he was coming.
But deep confusion lingers in everyone's heart. Only ten thousand people dare to come and knock on the door?
After observing for a long time, with smoke and dust billowing, the answer appeared.
The cold thieves are not here to knock on the door, but to pursue.
Chu Qing's pupils shrank suddenly and he shouted: "It's Xiao Yi, it's Xiao Yi and Brother Dajun, it must be Xiao Yi."
With such a long distance, Chu Qing didn't recognize Xiao Yi, but he recognized Xiao Yi's horse. The reason why he knew that Xiao Yi and others were back at such a distance was because there were so many people and horses in the frontier army. Du Xiaoyi's horse has an outward shape when running.
The other horses ran forward, swinging their hooves back and forth, but Xiao Yi's horse moved its front hooves diagonally, and the speed was very fast. Every time Xiao Yi rode the horse with a straight horse, it made Chu Qing has a profound memory.
Cuiyu was extremely shocked: "Could it be that General Xiao killed a tribal leader? Why was he pursued as far as the border by nearly ten thousand people?"
"It must be, this madman."
Chu Qing yelled: "Open the city gate, open the city gate quickly and let them come back."
A deputy general ran up in a hurry: "Sir, don't open it. Don't open the city gate. The enemy's situation is unknown. If you open it, it will be difficult to close it."
"It's just ten thousand people. Are you afraid of ten thousand people?"
"Don't say 10,000 people. Don't attack even a thousand people. The enemy's situation is unknown. If there are ambushes in the rear, then the 10,000 people will be in a stalemate at the city gate."
Chu Qing cursed mother.
The lieutenant is telling the truth. Now the enemy's situation is unclear. If you are not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. Just rely on ten thousand people. Even if you charge, you will definitely not be able to rush in. If you are afraid, you will be afraid of opening the city gate. These ten thousand people will block the city gate and prevent it. After closing the gate, more enemies will rush over from behind. If there is a mischief, Xiguan will be lost.
Seeing Xiao Yi and the others getting closer and closer, Chu Qing was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
At the critical moment, Cuiyu spoke: "Borrowing the car finally has a use!"
"What's the meaning?"
Cuiyu looked at the deputy general and said calmly: "Wave the flag and tell General Xiao and others to stick to the city gate. Quick."
"What does Mr. Mo mean?"
"Hurry up and signal, borrow a car and prepare, throw charcoal fire."
Chu Qing's eyes lit up and he understood what Cuttlefish meant.
The range of the borrowed car is not far, it is very close, but this also becomes an advantage. The archer holds the divine arm crossbow and can protect Xiao Yi and others below on the city wall, while the borrowed car can block the pursuers from behind. As long as Xiao Yi and the others were lucky. They came back quickly in the hanging basket without losing too many manpower.
The semaphore was played, the cuttlefish also took over the flag, and baskets of charcoal fire were placed on the loaner car.
Brother Dajun and Ayi saw the flag and went straight to the city wall.
Cuttlefish was so excited that he murmured.
"Today, let the world know how powerful my Mo family's organ skills are!"
Chu Qing was also extremely nervous, pressing his hands tightly on the city head.
He didn't know what Xiao Yi did. Maybe this guy really killed a tribal leader, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to chase him. And judging from the speed, he should have been chasing him for a long, long time. Although the war horse was running at full speed, the speed But not quickly, it was obvious that he had been chasing him for more than a day.
Xiao Yi and others finally approached the city gate, and the pursuers were getting closer and closer.
Chu Qing yelled: "Wait for the hanging basket, wait for the hanging basket, hold on, I don't want the war horse anymore, hold on, we will cover you!"
The smoke and dust were billowing, and Chu Qing could not see the specific situation under the city wall. The horses neighed, and he could only see that the people below had drawn their divine arm crossbows and weapons, preparing for a desperate fight.
The most nervous thing is the cuttlefish.
Lao Mo's neck was straight with excitement, his face was as red as blood, and he held the flag high.
"Two hundred feet..."
"One hundred and fifty feet..."
"Baizhang..."
Cuttlefish's whole body began to tremble.
He wants to tell the world through the power of the borrowed car that his Mohist machine skills are unparalleled in the world!
"Prepare!"
Cuttlefish roared: "Fifty feet!"
The soldiers next to the borrowed car all looked at the flag.
In fact, this distance is enough to launch, but the cuttlefish is also very wild at heart. If he wants to play, he will play with the next biggest one. Of the nearly 10,000 cold thieves, he must keep at least 30%.
"Prepare, prepare..."
The distance was finally enough, and Cuttlefish roared loudly: "Listen to my order, three, two..."
Facts have proved that cuttlefish's luck is really bad.
Just as the word "一" was about to be shouted out, the nearly 10,000 pursuing rangers all grabbed the reins, then quickly turned their horses' heads and ran away in a flash.
Cuttlefish was dumbfounded.
Why... why did you just run away? Come here, you guys should come here.
Seeing that these rangers were really about to run away, Cuttlefish yelled: "One, let go!"
In the end it was too late, the rangers had already turned their horses and ran away.
The hammer fell, and baskets of charcoal fire flew into the air like sparks all over the sky. After reaching a high point, they scattered and fell again.
The scene was so spectacular that Chu Qing never expected that borrowing a car to fire off charcoal fire would be such a scene. He thought it was just throwing out baskets of charcoal fire.
It's quite spectacular. Just this spectacular scene can make people think of what it would be like if it fell on the enemy's head.
But the cuttlefish was still lonely after all.
It takes a process for the charcoal fire to go from being shot to falling, and at the end of this process, all the rangers ran away, so this thing is, the cuttlefish smashed into a lonely place.
The first hanging basket fell, but the one who was pulled up was not Xiao Yi, let alone Sheng Zhaojun, nor some veteran wolf hunter or Shencao Ranger, but a tied up Liangren who looked like Asami Ogawa. .
After Liang Ren was pulled up, he threw it to the ground. Chu Qing was confused: "What the hell is this?"
Fu San lightly kicked his feet, and Liang Ren on the ground stared angrily, his mouth was gagged, and he whined.
Without saying a word, the third brother ran out and kicked Liangren in the face.
This kick was so powerful and heavy that Cuiyu shivered: "Do you know what he said? Just hit someone."
"He scolded you."
"That's nonsense, why didn't I hear this?" Cuiyu couldn't help but wonder about the other party's identity, so he knelt down and pulled out the rag strips from Liang Ren's mouth.
After regaining the ability to speak, the eldest prince spat on Cuttlefish's trouser legs and shouted: "Chang Gou, I'm going to kill you and your whole family!"
Cuttlefish: “…”
Chu Qing shrugged: "Many times, what the third brother says is the truth."
The eldest prince looked at Chu Qing again. Before he could say anything, Fu San kicked him again. The eldest prince groaned and fainted.
Fu San looked at the indifferent Cuiyu and asked after a while: "Why didn't you ask me why I hit him again?"
Cuttlefish said nothing.
Isn't this nonsense? You must say that this guy is planning to scold your young master, so you strike first.
