RPAGF Chapter 262: Midnight Clouds
Chapter 262: Midnight Clouds
The three of them looked at the tightly closed city gate and felt confident of victory.
"If nothing unexpected happens, we will capture the city tonight!"
Ling Yunxiao brought an army of two thousand men with him this time. However, the army could not enter the city and had to hide outside the city.
At this moment, we are just waiting for his order.
Therefore, what they have to do now is to cooperate internally and externally.
"The general is right." Zhang Yan agreed. He had been waiting for this day for a long time. He never expected that at this moment, his unintentional act of rescuing Li Zhao would have such an unexpected result.
Jiang Yue was already thinking about the prosperous scene after retaking Liangzhou City.
Then, Ling Yunxiao took the city lord token that Zhang Yan had found and walked towards the city gate.
At the entrance of the city tower, two enemy soldiers guarding the city stared at Ling Yunxiao's figure, watching him approach step by step, their eyes full of vigilance.
"Don't you know that the city gate is an important place and outsiders are not allowed to approach it?" an enemy soldier guarding the city asked loudly.
"We are the city lord's men." Ling Yunxiao showed the token representing the city lord's identity.
"It really is the city lord's token." The guard took it and examined it carefully.
Seeing the deputy general at the city wall coming down from the tower, he handed the token to him for inspection.
The enemy's deputy general carefully checked and asked Ling Yunxiao after confirming:
"The city lord wants you to leave the city now, why?"
"I heard that Princess Xining will pass by my Liangzhou city soon. As you know, the soldiers of Donglin are watching us covetously. The city lord is afraid of something happening, so he asked the two of us to go forward to help."
Ling Yunxiao's reply was flawless, all thanks to the letter that Zhang Yan had found.
The deputy general of Beiyan in front of him did not ask any more questions and ordered his subordinates,
"Let them out." After all, they were holding the city lord's token.
The city gate was slowly opened by two enemy soldiers.
But at the moment the city gate was opened,
The enemy's deputy general had almost no time to react before Ling Yunxiao suddenly slashed his throat with a knife.
His eyes widened immediately.
Beans of blood dyed the ground at the entrance of the city red.
"You... who are you?" The deputy general used up his last bit of strength, his eyes filled with anger, regret, and fear.
He was a great general of Northern Yan, but he died unexpectedly before the battle even started?
"I forgot to tell you just now," Ling Yunxiao's voice turned cold.
"The so-called city lord is dead, and we are the soldiers of Donglin!" Ling Yunxiao said, and started to push slowly.
The deputy general fell to the ground with a thud.
This scene made all the enemy troops around them startled.
As soon as the person approached him, he was attacked by Jiang Yue and Zhang Yan.
The swords were swung left and right, and the sound of fighting began.
Ling Yunxiao exerted force left and right to completely open the city gate.
Three men against two thousand enemy defenders.
The city gate was immediately thrown into chaos.
The three of them were almost one against a thousand.
Even if you have three heads and six arms, it is still difficult to win.
But they are not just three people.
Ling Yunxiao's gaze fell towards the outside of the city, and he saw a black shadow approaching.
He looked relaxed, but he dared not slack off in the slightest while fighting.
Jiang Yue and Zhang Yan felt relieved when they saw this scene.
The swords in their hands became more and more powerful.
At this moment, the three of them were instantly covered in blood.
After all, there were only three of them.
More than 10,000 Donglin soldiers were hiding in the dark.
Led by the imperial guard Qin Yu and generals Chen Li and Cao Zheng, they rushed forward as fast as a flash of lightning.
That’s right, Qin Yu had just met up with two generals and was bound to join the battle.
At the tower, the enemy soldiers who were fighting Jiang Yue and Zhang Yan had the first reaction:
Close the city gate!
However, Ling Yunxiao's tall figure was standing on the tower at this moment.
Anyone who wanted to close the city gate had to get through Jiang Yue and the other two.
They wanted to escape, but not into the city.
Once entering the city, you will be caught in a trap.
But even so, don't they have a chance to escape?
If I escape from the city, can I escape?
Soldiers from the east came rushing in from all directions in order to surround them.
In desperation, they turned back into the city and began to flee in all directions.
Their action made it easier for the soldiers from Donglin to move forward.
The vast Donglin army entered the city of Liangzhou.
The picture is extraordinary harmonious.
As soon as Qin Yu entered the city, he rode his horse to Ling Yunxiao's side. As his bodyguard, he had wanted to follow him yesterday, but the general asked him to stay and guard, so he had no choice but to obey orders.
After the Donglin soldiers entered the city, Ling Yunxiao gave the order in a deep voice:
"Close the door and beat the dog!"
Following his order, when all the soldiers entered the city, Jiang Yue and Zhang Yan, one on the left and one on the right, heavily blocked the city gate.
The city gate returned to its previous state.
As soon as the ten thousand Donglin soldiers entered the city, they engaged in a melee with the enemy troops inside.
Not only the enemy troops that have just entered, but also the enemy troops hiding in the city.
The melee was about to break out and the scene was intense.
Compared with their own soldiers, Jiang Yue and Zhang Yan seemed much more relaxed.
Because at this time, no enemy dared to rush into the city wall.
Jiang Yue and Zhang Yan, who had been working for a long time, could take this opportunity to take a break.
At the same time, in the ruined temple,
Han Chao still protects Yu Ziyan and other women.
While protecting it, I suddenly heard hurried footsteps coming from outside the ruined temple.
He was anxious and told the girls,
"Hide it."
The women were of course horrified when facing the enemy, but Yu Ziyan did not listen to Han Chao's words.
Then he left the ruined temple.
Listening to the clanging of fighting not far away, a smile from the bottom of her heart appeared on her face again.
Midnight is filled with clouds, and this is how I spend it...
…The next morning, the city was filled with dead and wounded.
The early sun shone on the earth, and bright red blood spilled all over the city of Liangzhou.
The 10,000 soldiers who came to the east suffered almost no losses.
At this time, they all gathered together and stood under the city wall.
Ling Yunxiao climbed up the tower and stood high on it. He turned around and gave the order to the 10,000 soldiers below the tower:
"Soldiers, go door to door, pick out all the people in the city, and drive them out of Liangzhou!"
"Yes!" In the front row, the guard Qin Yu, and the two generals Chen Li and Cao Zheng clasped their fists and began to search and drive them away from house to house.
Because Ling Yunxiao gave an order,
The people of Beiyan in the city suffered a great disaster.
Whether hiding under the bed or in the cellar,
They were all rushed out by Qin Yu and others.
The people's wrists were tied and they were driven out of their courtyards.
Finally, after confirming that there was no one in the empty yard, a Donglin soldier was sent to guard the place.
Every family is like this.
Jiang Yue and Zhang Yan did not join. At this moment, they were still responsible for defending the city.
Every time the people were driven out, they were sent to the city gates and driven away mercilessly by the two men.
Therefore, the people of Northern Yan gradually gathered at the city gate.
They complained frequently outside the city wall.
"We have lived here for ten years and now we are being asked to leave."
