Chapter 1118 fierce battle
At this moment, what was darker than the darkness after the sun set was before King Ning.
Just outside the gate of Hecheng City, there is a dense birch forest.
If there are no trees around the city with important strategic significance, so as not to facilitate the enemy to hide when a war breaks out, and the defenders in the city will not be able to distinguish the number of enemy troops.
However, Hecheng has never been a strategic location.
Therefore, no one has ever cared about a forest outside the city gate here.
When Zhu Xuan first discovered this place, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. This time, Zhu Feng escaped from Changqing City and fled all the way back to Hecheng City. The biggest failure of this natural god of war was probably that he did not send people to clean up the woods outside the city after entering the city.
At this moment, Zhu Xuan led his men and hid in it.
For a whole day, because the sky was dark, they were even more dim at the end of their lives, but in order to escape the surveillance of the soldiers on the city, they did not even dare to make a fire to keep warm.
Only just now, the golden leaves were shining with sunlight and reflected dazzling light.
It's sunset.
Finally, it was sunset.
The people who stayed in the city before had already tried to spread the news from the city. They also knew that the imperial concubine Si Nanyan had actually promised the people in the city that they would open the city gate at sunset.
Although, I don't know whether it is true or false.
The people in the city have become like this. If they really don’t open the city gate at sunset and don’t have to attack the city, the people will fight with the soldiers.
By then, they will save even the strength to attack the city.
Thinking of this, Zhu Xuan showed a sneer on his face.
And at this moment, several soldiers came over the dense forest. They were sent out to find out the news. They hurriedly ran to him and knelt down and said, "Your Highness, the city gate is about to open!"
"What?!"
When Zhu Xuan heard this, he looked happy: "Say it again!"
"The city gate is about to open!"
The soldier in the lead said panting: "Someone in the city has sent a signal, and the city gate is about to open!"
"good!"
Zhu Xuan shouted loudly, and immediately, the soldiers around him immediately gathered together.
This time, all their elite troops were gathered here, waiting for the moment when the city gate was opened, and everyone was excited when they heard the news.
Zhu Xuan said: "Everyone listen to my order!"
"yes!"
The birds in the forest were frightened by their voices and flew away.
Zhu Xuan waved his sword and pointed ahead. Although the woods were dense, they could not see the situation ahead at all. They could only see the towering outline of the city tower in front of them. However, everyone knew that it was their target.
Zhu Xuan said: "The first person to enter the city will be rewarded with a thousand gold medals and granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Houses!"
When everyone heard this, their eyes were red with excitement.
As Nanyan said to the common people before, they fought for money, and they went in and plundered them wantonly after the city was broken. If they could directly reward thousands of gold and grant Wanhu Marquis a title, they would be in endless wealth and glory in this life!
Suddenly, the crowd was in high spirits.
Zhu Xuan pointed his sword forward: "Rare for me!"
In an instant, the shouts shook the sky.
The rebels suddenly jumped out of the dense forest, and the light armored soldiers were the first to be hit. They were the fastest, waving the spear in their hands, like a tiger out of the gate, and rushed towards the already opened Hecheng gate in front of them.
In fact, at this time, cavalry is the most capable of rushing.
However, in order to hide their whereabouts and to prevent the people in the city from discovering that they have been hiding in the birch forest, Zhu Xuan had to abandon Duo Yanwei. Fortunately, this distance was not long. The light armored soldiers had rushed to a place not far outside the city gate because of their small load and fast speed.
This scared the common people who walked out of the city gate.
Before, although they had been fighting for several days, they just listened to the sound and screamed.
But I have never faced these whistling soldiers directly. Their spears and swords were all aimed at themselves.
Suddenly, the crowd panicked.
"Oh no, the rebels are coming!"
All the people were so scared that they were all terrified. At this time, they still remembered the "city breaks and slaughtering the city" and "submission from the city can avoid death". Seeing those people rushing over, they didn't know whether they were people or soldiers.
Everyone was shattered and they were crying and retreated.
"Run!"
"They are going to kill us, run away!"
At this moment, the soldiers who were originally guarding the people suddenly stepped forward together, but instead rushed forward to protect them, they began to gather in the middle of the crowd.
In just a moment, it gathered in the middle and formed a T-shaped formation, which separated the people from the middle and divided them into two parts.
Everyone was shocked.
Some people didn't care about what these people were doing. When they saw the rebels rushing over like this, they knew that they didn't intend to save their lives at all. Naturally, they cried and turned around and ran into the city. However, when they turned around, they found that the soldiers in the city had actually started to close the city gate!
At this time, Nanyan also followed Zhu Feng up the city tower.
Seeing this scene, her heart sank.
Subconsciously turned his head to look at Zhu Feng beside him. His eyes were cold, without a trace of warmth. He looked coldly down the city tower. The people were crying and retreating, constantly slapping the city gate, and the sound of begging was endless.
"Open the city gate and let us in!"
"Let's go in!"
While crying, they looked back in despair. Although the tree was still a distance from the city gate, these soldiers were all light armored soldiers, and their pace was extremely fast. After a while, they were already close to each other.
Dead!
Almost all people have such desperate thoughts in their hearts.
But at this time, the soldiers mixed in the crowd made movements again. After forming a formation, they suddenly pulled out the sword in their hands, and shone brightly with a cold light. Even in such a dark twilight, it seemed particularly dazzling.
They shouted, "Go!"
Everyone was at a loss, but at this time, people had reached a dead end and completely lost the consciousness of resistance.
Just like cattle and sheep, they were driven from the middle to both sides.
The entire city gate was exposed.
At this time, the city gate was blocked by the people just now and before he could close it, Zhu Xuan and the others looked at the wide gap in the middle of the city gate, as if they saw the light in the darkness, and their eyes were red.
You can't see anything, you can only see the city gate!
"Run!"
He waved the sword in his hand and shouted.
The soldiers' footsteps became heavier, and the earth was trembling slightly.
But at the same time, a heavier muffled sound rang behind them!
