Chapter 294 Great Victory
One common person was killed every hour on the city wall, and the common people closest to the city gate fled elsewhere, fearing that it would be their turn after killing those in front.
As soon as the news spread, people fled towards the center of the city. The streets were still brightly lit at night and were full of people pushing and shoving.
"Go to the north gate, go to the north gate." The young and strong man spontaneously organized the people to evacuate.
There were too many people, and there were cries, pushes, and curses everywhere.
"Don't squeeze, you'll step on someone!"
"Oh my boy."
The man grabbed the collar of a man who was pushing forward and said, "If you keep pushing me, I will throw you to the city gate."
The people flocked to the north gate.
But the north gate was closed tightly, and soldiers guarded the city gate tightly.
"Let us out."
One stone caused thousands of waves, and the crowd erupted with the cry.
"Let us out!"
"Open the door!"
"We don't want to die here!"
The soldiers guarding the city were pushed to the city gate, and the people were still shouting and pushing forward.
"Don't go any further. We won't be polite if you go any further." The soldier suddenly drew his sword.
"Kill!" someone in the crowd shouted.
Seeing that they could not suppress the people, the soldiers guarding the city shouted anxiously: "Quickly inform the Marquis that there is chaos at the north gate. Send troops over immediately."
Marquis Xuanping was sitting in the palace and heard the commotion outside.
"Master Marquis, there is a riot at the North Gate. The people are fighting with our soldiers guarding the city."
Marquis Xuanping's eyes were bloodshot, "Move troops over here. Anyone who dares to lead a riot will be killed directly."
The sky is boiling in the north, but the south gate is extremely quiet.
Some soldiers were taking a nap under the city wall, and some were chatting.
"Fortunately we were not sent to the north gate."
"It doesn't matter which door you go to. Xie Tingzhou will come in sooner or later. The difference is just two more days and two less days."
"I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet, and I've never held a woman in my arms. I heard that she feels sweet and soft when I hold her."
"I still have my wife at home."
They both sighed at the same time.
"How did you come to join the army?"
"The land at home was occupied by a squire, and two of my brothers starved to death. My mother asked me to join the army, saying that if I joined the army, I would have food to eat. How could I know where to join the army? Alas..."
The soldier raised his head and said, "It would be great if I could go back and see my mother."
Xiao Chuan disappeared into the darkness, and the dagger he originally held in his hand was inserted back into his waist. He gestured to the people behind him, and the people behind him passed back.
There was faint movement on the ground.
The soldier who was chatting stopped, raised his ears and listened carefully, "What's the sound?"
The soldier clung to the city wall and said, "There seems to be someone there."
The soldier's expression changed, he turned around and was about to shout when a rope silently strangled his neck.
"Shut up if you want to go back and see your mother." The man said in his ear.
The soldiers on the city wall suddenly shouted, "Qingyun Guard! Qingyun Guard has sneaked into the city!"
"Fuck!" Xiao Chuan cursed, "I am the Phoenix Army!"
What Xiao Chuan wants is a time difference. The people of Marquis Xuanping will be led to the north gate, and the time for rescue will be lengthened.
He pushed the soldier away and climbed onto the city wall with a knife. The two sides exchanged hands within a moment.
"Get someone to open the door!" Xiao Chuan shouted while killing.
Standing under the eaves, Marquis Xuanping saw soldiers galloping towards him, "Master Marquis! There's a fight at the south gate, the south gate!"
"What?!" Marquis Xuanping took a step forward, "Quick! Move some of the troops from the north gate to the south gate."
There were killing sounds from the south gate, and the heavy city gate was slowly lifted up. The sound of horse hooves came from far to near, coming from the end of the long street. They were reinforcements sent by Marquis Xuanping.
"Hold on!" Xiao Chuan raised his knife and shouted.
Just hold on for a moment, just a moment.
In front of Xiao Chuan were the enemy troops arriving, and behind the city gate were the rushing reinforcements.
Marquis Xuanping got on his horse.
"Master Marquis!" the soldier shouted, "It's too late, the south gate is broken!"
Xuanping Hou Lema stopped where he was.
The first batch of light cavalry rushed into the city gate like shuttles and rushed towards the firelight inside the city.
Xiao Chuan pressed his shoulder against the city gate, swallowed the blood from his mouth, raised his head and shouted:
"Great victory——!"
…
A heavy rain came and went, and the weather didn't get much cooler.
It is the autumn harvest season, and the good news of harvests from various places are flying to Weizhou like snowflakes.
Changliu sat under the eaves, and Sixi sat next to him.
Fortunately, Si Xi's injuries were not serious. The assassin's knife pierced his shoulder bone, and the wound was not deep.
Changliu touched Oogway's back, thinking about the little prince in the princess's belly.
"I heard that children are born like monkeys. I wonder if the children born by the princess will be as cute as a little turtle?"
Si Xi glanced at Chang Liu speechlessly, "Don't let the prince hear these words, otherwise he may make you mute."
"Why?" Chang Liu was puzzled.
Si Xi was waiting for an explanation when he looked up and saw a man striding from the entrance of the courtyard. He gave Chang Liu a push in joy.
"Hurry and report to the prince and princess that General Shen is back."
Shen Zhao was sweating all over from running, with a smile that couldn't be hidden on his face. He took off his armor as he walked, and the maid followed beside him to catch the armor he threw.
After the war, he received a letter from Xie Tingzhou, saying that he was going to be his uncle.
Shen Zhao was naturally overjoyed. There were many happy events this year. He was going to be both a father and an uncle. After receiving the military report of the great victory, he rushed to Weizhou. After running for two days, he changed three horses.
As soon as I reached the door, the door was opened from the inside.
Shen Zhao looked at Xie Tingzhou at the door and asked, "Where is Ayu?"
"Inside." Xie Tingzhou said.
Shen Zhao was about to walk sideways in, but as soon as he took a step forward, he was firmly blocked by Xie Tingzhou.
"What are you doing?" Shen Zhao asked in surprise.
Xie Tingzhou frowned slightly, "Are you going to meet her like this?"
Shen Zhao lowered his head and looked at himself. Apart from being dusty, he didn't see any problems, "No?"
Xie Tingzhou said: "She has been very sensitive to smells recently. You should smell yourself first."
Shen Zhao raised his arm and smelled it, "It has no smell."
The maid held her armor and covered her mouth with a smile.
Shen Zhao smelled it again, but still couldn't smell it, so he simply pulled Changliu over, hooked his neck and asked: "Changliu, what do I smell like?"
Changliu pinched his nose in pain, "General Shen, did you fall into the cesspit?"
