Chapter 1119 The city gate is not closed!
The soldiers' footsteps became heavier, shaking the earth so much that it made it tremble slightly.
But at the same time, a heavier muffled sound sounded behind them!
Originally at this moment, Zhu Xuan could hardly hear anything. The roars of the soldiers around him were like thunder from the sky, shaking the entire earth. However, just as his blood was boiling and he rushed into the battle with everyone else, and was about to approach the city gate, the strange vibration from the ground made his heart stagnate.
Amid the soldiers' roars, some people seemed to exclaim in surprise.
He turned his head hastily.
All I saw was smoke and dust.
These people were just lightly armored infantrymen. Although they had just rushed out from the birch forest, it was such a short distance that they would not stir up so much smoke and dust.
Moreover, the birds flew away in fright!
Zhu Xuan opened his eyes wide and looked behind him. He saw a large number of cavalrymen suddenly rushed out from the birch forest under the dark sky. They were stepping on the smoke and dust and galloping towards them. At a glance, it was like a ferocious beast suddenly jumped out from the woods and pounced towards them.
What's going on?
How come a cavalry appeared?
Zhu Xuan couldn't believe his eyes.
They had been waiting in the birch forest for a whole day. Even if a single horseman appeared, they would be discovered. But now, a large group of people, no less than a thousand people, suddenly appeared before their eyes, like a divine army descending from the sky!
Some soldiers at the end of their team were so frightened that they lost their ability to react. They watched foolishly as the horsemen suddenly rushed out from their ambush site and were right in front of them in an instant.
The horses' hooves were raised high and trampled them to the ground.
"ah--!"
Suddenly, screams were heard.
However, after all, they rushed out from the woods. These cavalrymen were not in formation, and there were only a few horses in the front, with the main force still behind. After they stepped into the infantry camp, although they trampled and killed many people in succession, the infantrymen's reaction was not slow. They immediately waved their swords and spears and chopped down the horses in the front to the ground.
Amid the screams, bursts of muffled thunder rang out and the earth shook.
More and more cavalrymen rushed out of the woods. Even though they were not in formation, they looked like a black mass in front of their eyes, like a huge rolling stone, rolling towards them.
The soldiers' faces showed expressions of fear.
"Return to defense, return to defense quickly!"
Upon seeing this, Zhu Xuan quickly swung his sword, pointed at the cavalry that had suddenly appeared behind him, and shouted, "Form a formation, and return to defense!"
The soldiers around him heard his order and immediately began to shout loudly.
"Return to defense!"
"Form a formation and defend!"
In order to hunt down Zhu Feng, he brought out the most elite infantry under his command except for the Duoyan Guards from Changqing City this time. They reacted very quickly. After being dispersed by the cavalry, they immediately re-formed their troops and took up a defensive formation, pointing their spears at the cavalry rushing up from behind.
This is not a wide plain, and there are towering city walls behind them. Even the cavalry cannot fully exert their advantages of impact and crushing, and they may not be able to truly defeat them!
But--
When they saw these cavalrymen rushing towards them, there was still fear in their eyes.
Especially Zhu Xuan.
He couldn't believe it.
Why did such a cavalry suddenly appear? Was it arranged by Zhu Feng?
At this moment, he was not only surprised and astonished by the sudden appearance of the enemy, but more importantly, he felt a hint of uneasiness rising in his heart.
Their military camp is located no more than ten miles away from here.
In order to avoid being discovered by the people in the city, he led a group of elite soldiers to ambush in the birch forest. There was also a large number of soldiers in the military camp. Although they did not follow, they were all preparing for battle.
As soon as the battle starts here, they will come to support at any time.
However, what appeared before his eyes at this moment was a group of cavalry.
There were quite a few of them, and even now, many of them had just rushed out of the birch forest. Obviously, they might have ambushed around the birch forest in advance, and there was no place for them to ambush around.
The only possibility is——
They came from the military camp!
Just thinking about this, a drop of cold sweat slid down his forehead.
How is that possible?!
There are so many people in the camp, it is impossible for these people to appear behind them without making any noise!
These thoughts flashed through my mind in a flash, and before my eyes, the sound of killing was already approaching!
No matter what, let’s get through this level first!
Zhu Xuan gritted his teeth and roared, "Kill them!"
Suddenly, smoke and dust rose up.
The two groups of troops fought each other at the city gate.
The cavalry still had an absolute advantage in the charge. The first wave dispersed the soldiers at the front of the formation. In an instant, screams shook the sky. The long neighing of horses mixed with the shrill screams of those people resounded through the sky in front of the city wall.
At this moment, Nan Yan had already followed Zhu Feng up to the city wall.
The wind was howling on the city wall, carrying with it the murderous aura from below, giving people a great sense of oppression. As soon as she climbed onto the city wall, Nan Yan was blown so hard that she staggered and almost fell.
However, Zhu Feng immediately put one hand on her waist.
"emperor!"
Zhu Feng ignored her and immediately walked to the front, leaning against the wall and looking down.
Nan Yan also hurriedly followed.
Although the sky had quickly darkened, leaving only a faint afterglow and the torches on the city walls, the battlefield below was still breathtakingly bright.
After the cavalry rushed into the infantry camp, they began close combat.
For a moment, swords flashed and blood and flesh flew everywhere.
Nan Yan saw this scene, which was completely familiar to her, but she still felt a little nervous. No matter what kind of war it is, bloodshed and sacrifice are always inevitable.
Watching people die in war, as if lives were being devoured by the monster called "war", also makes people feel a sadness rising from the bottom of their hearts.
Soon, the ground below was covered with blood and corpses.
But they are evenly matched.
Although the cavalry was brave, the infantry brought by Zhu Xuan were his elite troops after all, so the stalemate lasted for a long time.
The infantry were forced to retreat by the cavalry and even retreated to the foot of the city wall.
When Zhu Xuan turned around, he saw that the city gate was still not closed at this time!
His eyes lit up.
Seeing that the cavalry were still gathering, he immediately waved his hand and shouted to the soldiers around him: "Ignore them for now, charge into the city and capture the emperor first!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately turned around.
Sure enough, the city gate was not closed yet!
God is helping me!
Everyone was already in the midst of killing, their eyes bloodshot, but the city gate was not closed, as if God had given them a way out.
“Charge!”
