Chapter 4601 Who Betrayed?

This night is destined not to be peaceful...

In the early hours of the morning, the officer on duty of the city defense force was surprised by the sudden arrival of the border troops, but he didn't think too much about it, and quickly opened the city gate to let them through.

From the moment the frontier army passed through the inner and outer gates, the garrison had already lost their greatest support.

This does not refer to the city wall, but the city-level holy light barriers deployed outside the two layers of the city wall!

Originally, once the two layers of holy light barriers were opened, even if the frontier army wanted to attack in a short time, it would not be so easy.

But now, the garrison has lost the two most important safeguards.

After breaking away from the range of the city wall, the border army quickly entered the city, pretending to be an ordinary posture, and moved towards the Holy Light Cathedral located in the deepest part of the upper city.

Their thinking is very simple, that is to go straight to the Holy Light Cathedral and take down the bishop!

In this way, the battle here can easily end.

But their scale was not small after all, and they quickly attracted the attention of the patrol team in the city.

Although it was difficult for the patrols to link the border army with the rebellion, at this early morning, a border army was fully armed and approaching in the direction of the Cathedral of the Holy Light.

All of a sudden, the rapid sound of the alarm bell woke up the bishop who was sleeping soundly at that time.

Before he had time to call the guards outside and ask him what happened, there was a rush of running outside the bishop's bedroom.

"Let him in!!"

The bishop heard the guards outside his door stop him, and before they came in to report, the bishop had already called him in with a loud voice.

The Winged Guard who walked into the bedroom quickly all the way, his face was full of anxiety and panic.

Looking at the other person's expression, the bishop's whole heart hung directly in his throat.

The first thought in his mind at that time was that the lower city had rebelled!

In the end, the report of the Winged Guard completely stunned him.

"Report! The frontier army has mutinied! Thousands of frontier troops are heading towards the church, and now there are only two blocks left from the church!"

At that moment, the bishop felt his whole mind exploded with a 'boom', and then his brain went blank.

The last time he was so confused was probably when the Holy City made a judgment and demoted him here.

Even if he wanted to break his head, he would never have thought that the rebellion was not in the lower city, but the frontier army!

The Wingman guard who rushed over to report the incident was undoubtedly in a daze.

Maintaining this state, it was several seconds later that the bishop came back to his senses as if frightened. He didn't care about anything else. He was wearing a nightgown, dragging his fat body, and rushed to the person who came to report. In front of the Wingman guards, he grabbed the opponent by the collar...

"Say it again, who? Who betrayed?!"

At this moment, the violent emotional ups and downs made the bishop's voice tremble a little.

Facing this formation, the wingman guard who came to report was also in a mess.

"Bian, border army?"

When he said the three words 'Border Army', the tone of the wingman guard was clearly lacking in confidence.

No way, he is also confused! Can't figure out what's going on at all.

Fortunately, the captain of the guard who was in charge of guarding the Cathedral of the Holy Light responded in a timely manner. He immediately opened the barrier of the Holy Light deployed outside the Cathedral of the Holy Light, and at the same time sent out a signal to notify the garrison and the patrolling troops in the city to come to the emergency support!

And right now, the frontier troops that rushed in were less than half a block away from the Holy Light Cathedral.

Looking through the building, the dazzling pure white holy light illuminates the night, looking at the holy light barrier stretched around the Holy Light Cathedral from a distance, Harold, who is in charge of leading this border force and performing this mission, gritted his teeth, There was a serious expression on his face.

Their plan this time is based on a surprise attack.

The most ideal state, of course, is to take down the Holy Light Cathedral before the troops in the city can react.

But this ideal state is undoubtedly too ideal.

After all, this is a border planet, and the vigilance of the troops in the city is not so low.

According to their guess at the beginning, if they could rely on their identity as a frontier army to cheat through the two city walls outside the city, it would be considered a success.

As for the Holy Light barrier outside the Holy Light Cathedral...

Nine times out of ten, it is necessary to fight head-on.

No way, this Holy Light Barrier is small in size and quick to activate. After the troops in the city became alert, it was unrealistic for them to try to get close to the Holy Light Cathedral before the Holy Light Barrier opened.

Fortunately, the Holy Light Barrier outside the Holy Light Cathedral is not comparable in strength to a city-level Holy Light Barrier except for its size.

With a little more time, even their army can defeat it.

And right here, at the same time as the frontier army launched a vigorous attack, over the upper city, a miniature reconnaissance robot that looked like a flying insect was constantly feeding back to Luo Ji everything that happened here.

"As expected, the other party chose to attack overnight."

"Um……"

After Luo Ji said these words, Ye Qingxuan, who was paralyzed on his body, responded softly as if she was dreaming.

Originally, she wanted to stay up all night and wait for the result, but the other party's hands-on time was too late, which made her sleepy now.

Seeing Ye Qingxuan's half-dream and half-awake appearance, Luo Ji smiled.

"Sleep, I'll wake you up if something happens."

"Um."

Turning over, Ye Qingxuan fell into a deep sleep.

Ye Qingxuan had already made a guess after Henry Boll left during the day, saying that the other party might launch a surprise attack overnight today.

The main reason why the other party would do this is naturally because they are afraid of their whole routine.

But this is undoubtedly a good thing for Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan.

The sooner this battle ends, the less likely they will be implicated. Isn't that a good thing for them?

At the same time, looking at this matter from another angle, the border army was willing to launch a surprise attack overnight after receiving the news from Henry Bole, which meant that Henry Bole had a certain status in the border army.

In other words, he can count when he speaks.

This gave Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan some peace of mind.

At least you don't have to worry that the other party is giving them a blank promise.

The next thing they have to do is to wait for a result.

This wave of border troops entered the city with about one or two thousand troops, and the other party should also know that if there are too many troops, the city defense troops will not let them go easily.

However, the border army also ambushed troops outside the city, with about four to five thousand troops. After the incident happened here, the troops ambushed outside the city immediately showed up and began to restrain the city defense troops and prevent them from returning to help.

There is no problem with this deployment, but the amount of troops used is really not that much.

But Luo Ji could also understand.

After all, what they need to capture this night is not only this city...
