"What a pity! The person who came to rescue them was not the Zhang Wuji they were thinking about."
Although Zhu'er and Han Zhao felt a little lost, Wei Yixiao and Yin Yewang on the top of the city wall were not like that at all.
Because they don't care who the rescuers are. As long as they can save Longcheng, they can save their lives.

Their marching speed is too slow, and I have to go to support them. Then we can cooperate from inside and outside."
Yang Xiao didn't waste any words. He first ordered the cavalry behind him, more than half of whom had been killed, to enter the city, and then rode away alone.
