When Qin Shaoyou and the others arrived at the West City Gate, the heavy rain had stopped, and the floodwaters that were about to reach their waists were drained away from wells, ditches, etc.
;;;;If it weren't for the fact that there was still a little puddle and silt on the streets, and the air was still filled with the earthy smell after the heavy rain, everyone in the city would really wonder whether the heavy rain and flood just now were just a disaster. Dream.
;;;;The aquatic animals brought by Shui Bo of the Baiqing River also retreated with the flood.
;;;;However, they did not go far, but hid in the underground river, resting temporarily, waiting for the call of Baiqingjiang Shuibo to participate in a new battle.
;;;;Although the Shui tribe left, the people were very grateful to the shrimps, crabs, fish and turtles that saved their lives. Seeing Qin Shaoyou and his group were accompanied by giant crabs, giant turtles and turtles, they were not only not afraid, but also They all bowed and expressed their gratitude, which made Mr. Gunshan look envious.
;;;;There was a group of soldiers guarding the west city gate. Qin Shaoyou and the others were stopped before they could reach the tower.
;;;;When they were rushing through the city, they also encountered several groups of soldiers holding large orders, patrolling various parts of the city to maintain order.
;;;;That is the law enforcement team sent by Yu Shaobao. Once any spies or people who take advantage of the chaos are discovered, they will be punished by military law and beheaded on the spot!
;;;; Qin Shaoyou and the others were also spotted by these groups of soldiers as they were running fast in the city. On the one hand, it was because Yu Shaobao issued a military order. Unless they were in charge of military affairs, they were strictly prohibited from shouting and running in the city.
;;;;On the other hand, Qin Shaoyou and the others were not only covered in blood, but they were also dragging a group of people tied up into crabs, which looked really weird.
;;;;Fortunately, Qin Shaoyou and the others carried the tokens of the red messengers and showed their identities, so they did not conflict with the law enforcement team.
;;;;But at this moment, under the city tower, these soldiers saw the red messenger token presented by Qin Shaoyou and others, but they did not let them go immediately. Instead, they turned around and went up to the city tower with the token. After a while, they took a The man wearing an armor coat and a red robe came down.
;;;;"Third senior brother, you are here too." Qin Qiaoer greeted him with cupped hands.
;;;;The man who came was Huang Suiqiu, Qi Longfei's third disciple.
;;;; Among the red-clothed messengers, he belongs to the group that is very capable of fighting. There are seven others who can also fight, collectively known as the Eight Great Vajras.
;;;;Seeing Qin Qiao'er, Huang Suiqiu's dark and stern face showed a smile: "Little junior sister, it's good that you're okay. We originally wanted to come to support you, but Master said that you are enough to kill Marquis Dongchuan... …”
;;;;Speaking of this, he saw the half-drawn head held by Qin Shaoyou in his hand, and nodded: "It seems that Master is really right."
;;;;Then, his eyes turned to Qin Shaoyou.
;;;;Perhaps because of his love for Wujiwu, his attitude towards Qin Shaoyou is also quite friendly: "Are you Qin Shaoyou? As expected, you look very similar to my little junior sister. When things get over here and we return to the capital, we will be very close to each other. Closeness.”
;;;;After a few words of greeting, Huang Suiqiu returned the identity tokens to Qin Shaoyou, Qin Qiaoer and others, and said: "Master and Yu Shaobao are on top of the tower. You can follow me up."
;;;;Then he turned around and said to a general guarding here: "Brother Zhixing, these people are indeed our people, please let them go."
;;;; Qin Shaoyou glanced at the general and found that he was bald like Monk Ma, with a ring scar on his forehead. Although he was wearing heavy armor, he had a string of rosary beads hanging around his neck. He thought to himself: He should be one of the eighteen warrior monks who followed Yu Shaobao and learned martial arts and magical powers from the battle formation.
;;;;With Huang Suiqiu as a guarantee, Zhixing didn't see anything wrong with Qin Shaoyou and others, so he ordered the soldiers to put away their weapons, remove the roadblocks, and let Qin Shaoyou and others go up the tower.
;;;;Qin Shaoyou took a glance and found that these soldiers were actually the previous city gate guards. It's just that they were lazy when they were under the command of Marquis Dongchuan. Now that they have a new commander in chief, their attitude has changed drastically.
;;;;In this, there must be the idea of earning performance in front of the new leader, but more importantly, it should be that Yu Shaobao is strict in managing the army and can convince the public, so there is such a "changing commander is like changing a knife" 'Effect.
;;;;Up to the top of the city, the first thing Qin Shaoyou saw was something like a Kongming lantern, flying in the mid-air outside the city, emitting blazing firelight, dispelling the darkness, allowing people to see clearly the scene outside the city. .
;;;;I saw a large number of people outside the city. Sure enough, the Qingtang army was invading!
;;;;In the past, from storytellers, we often heard the phrase "when there are ten thousand people, there is no limit". Now seeing the Qingtang army invading outside the city, Qin Shaoyou realized what the boundless enemy army was like. Such a feeling.
;;;;Especially the Kongming lanterns floating in the air outside the city, they dare not fly too close to the Qingtang army, because once they get close, they will be shot with strong bows by the Qingtang army's skilled archers. The crossbow shot down.
;;;;So, no one can say for sure how many enemies are hidden in the darkness in the distance. Even Qin Shaoyou, relying on [Bright Eyes], could only see a large area of darkness behind the Qingtang barbarians!
;;;;The Qingtang barbarians held a variety of weapons high, riding on strange-looking horses and war bulls that were obviously enchanted.
;;;;They were running back and forth outside the city, making strange screams. On the weapons they held high, there were bloody human heads, and there were many heads on their waists for them to look at. It's like a demon soldier crawling out of hell!
;;;;In front of the Qingtang barbarians, there was a group of people who were being driven away.
;;;;They were Qingtang Guard soldiers who were taken out by Marquis Dongchuan, but were ambushed and suffered a heavy defeat.
;;;;Now these soldiers of the Xia Kingdom were treated as playthings for wanton killing by the Qingtang barbarians, as well as cannon fodder for siege. The Qingtang barbarians drove these defeated soldiers to the city and asked them to call the door.
;;;;In order to survive, these defeated soldiers shouted loudly under the city wall, hoping to get Brother Paoze on top of the city to open the city gate and let them in for the sake of their old friendship.
;;;;But no one dares to open this door.
;;;;Because everyone knows very well that once the city gate is opened, the elite Qingtang barbarian cavalry ambushing behind will rush into the city under the leadership of the Qingtang shaman and powerful generals before the defeated troops can enter.
;;;;If Qingtang seizes the gate and is forced to turn to street fighting, the city will not be able to defend itself.
;;;; Seeing the people on the wall, the barbarian soldiers in Qingtang had no intention of opening the door, and were not in a hurry to change their tactics, so they left the defeated soldiers to curse and cry under the wall.
;;;;They rode horses and oxen, stretched out their bows and set arrows, and shot and killed the defeated soldiers wantonly under the city. In this way, they destroyed the morale of the defenders on the city wall.
;;;;At the same time, there were several defeated soldiers with loud voices. Under the coercion and inducement of the Qingtang barbarians, the Qingtang wizard used witchcraft to make their heads become extremely large and their voices became louder. They were used under the city. In a strange tone, he shouted loudly:
;;;;"You can't even save your own brother Paoze, so why are you defending the city? Surrender early, and maybe you can still have a way out!"
;;;; "Qingtang barbarians... ah... Qingtang's army has raised millions of troops this time. You alone cannot resist it. Open the city gate quickly and surrender. You can still have a chance of survival. Otherwise, wait until Qingtang Tang’s army has broken through the city, everyone must die!”
;;;;"The noble Qingtang said that once you resist, when the city is broken, you will massacre for seven days to vent your hatred! For your parents, wives and children, and for the people in the city, you should open the door and surrender early!"
;;;;The defenders on the city wall gnashed their teeth in hatred for these big-headed guys.
;;;;Their voices are not only loud, but also very penetrating. Not only can the defenders on the city wall hear them, but the people in the city can also hear them.
;;;;If you don't respond well, they may mess up the morale of the military and the people, and cause big problems.
;;;;These Qingtang barbarians used to go head-to-head. When did they learn to use their brains? First, he used a trick to ambush the Marquis of Dongchuan, and now he used this tactic to attack the heart... It was simply cunning.
;;;;The defenders on the city wall wanted to kill these people, but the position where they stood was beyond the range of the crossbows, and the defenders could not shoot them at all. They could only gnash their teeth and greet the parents of these people. and eighteen generations of ancestors.
;;;;Unlike others, Qin Shaoyou, who has [bright eyesight], also saw many demons and ghosts in the dark night, attracted by the smell of blood and resentment here.
;;;;However, even demons and ghosts dare not approach this Qingtang army.
;;;;Once they get too close, there is no need for the Qingtang barbarians to be dispatched. Just the murderous intent and fierceness of the army will disperse the souls of the evil ghosts in an instant, suppressing and destroying the big demon!
;;;;This situation is enough to show that this group of Qingtang barbarians is not only large in number, but also terrifying in strength!
;;;;How to fight this battle? How to overcome this difficulty?
;;;; Qin Shaoyou squinted his eyes and fell into deep thought.
