The personal soldiers who had brought back Magistrate Tong and the legal advisor were lying on the parapet looking at the dead Dong Wenfeng, and they didn't know how to react for a moment.
General Dong did not designate who would be the deputy general, nor did he say who would continue to lead the troops if something happened to him.
So what should they do?
The elite soldiers looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear and confusion.
No one dared to be the first to shout out surrender.
"Master Tong---" The personal soldier remembered that the prefect was still there, and opened his mouth to ask Prefect Tong for some advice.
But when he turned around, Magistrate Tong and his advisor were no longer on the city gate tower.
The guards were completely panicked. The prefect had run away. What should they do?
Xiao Yunzhan looked at the dead Dong Wenfeng, took a deep breath, and looked up at the city gate tower.
"Your commander is dead, why don't you lay down your weapons, surrender immediately and open the city gates!"
Xiao Yunzhan's cold gaze swept over the elite soldiers holding hostages on the city gate tower one by one.
The elite soldiers met Xiao Yunzhan's murderous gaze and trembled with fear. Their hands shook, and the swords on the hostages' necks fell to the ground with a clang...
Someone took the lead and threw away his sword, and then the clanging sound of swords being thrown could be heard from the city gate tower for seven miles.
Without a coach, they are just a group of scattered soldiers.
They couldn't even withstand the rebels' catapults, so what was the point of fighting?
Those guards at the city gate who were held hostage were so moved when they saw with their own eyes that Xiao Yunzhan chose to duel with Dong Wenfeng for them.
Dong Wenfeng treats them as non-human beings, but Xiao Yunzhan regards them as so important.
If they continue to confront Xiao Yunzhan, even God will not tolerate it.
"Prince Xiao Yongchang, please wait a moment. We will open the city gate for you..."
The city gate guard who had gained freedom shouted excitedly to Xiao Yunzhan. He turned around and waved his hand.
"Brothers, let's go, open the city gates and welcome the God Army..."
“Let’s go, let’s go…”
The elite soldiers looked at the gate guards who were excitedly walking down the city wall, and their steps moved slightly.
Once the city gate is opened, they will be captured.
Do you really want to wait here to get caught?
The guard looked at the huge crowd of rebels outside the city, then glanced at the city guards who were rushing to offer their courtesy, and frowned.
"Retreat quickly!"
They are different from these soldiers guarding the city.
Their families are all in the capital. If they are captured, they cannot surrender to the rebels, but if they do not surrender, how can the rebels let them live?
While the city gate is open, the traps at the gate can help them delay some time, so they just need to run away quickly.
After the guard finished speaking, he ran towards the stairs.
Seeing this, the other elite soldiers also ran towards the stairs...
Xiao Yunzhan watched helplessly as the crowded city gate tower suddenly became empty.
It was the first time he encountered an enemy that did not fight at all after its leader died.
He had so much to say that he didn't even have time to express it...
Lin Yiran curled the corner of her mouth and lowered her eyes to look at the sniper rifle in her hand.
I finally spent a lot of money to buy a sniper rifle, but I never used it.
Okay, put it away. There are so many cities behind and plenty of opportunities.
Xiao Yunhao put down the telescope in his hand, turned around and looked at the confused old lady Xiao. The two smiled at each other, feeling inexplicably funny.
"Go down, the trap at the city gate needs to be dealt with."
Xiao Yunhao hung the telescope around his neck and jumped off the pillar, with no intention of giving the telescope to Old Madam Xiao.
This thing is so useful, I’m going to use it.
Madam Xiao looked at Xiao Yunhao's actions, smiled and shook her head.
"Everyone, go down."
Old Madam Xiao said something to the crossbowman on the pillar, then jumped down as well.
Lin Yiran had just packed up her things and stood up to take a breath when the gate of Shiquan City slowly opened.
The city gate guards swarmed at the city gate and shouted at Xiao Yunzhan,
"Prince Yongchang, be careful, this area is full of traps. Wait for us to fill them up..."
Xiao Yunzhan watched as a group of city gate guards pushed carts of dirt out of the city...
It was obvious that this soil had been dug out from these traps.
"Ha! You dig your own hole and fill it up yourself..."
Lin Yiran looked at the guards at the city gate who were moving like ants and smiled.
The tense battlefield atmosphere was instantly swept away.
Xiao Lingyan and Xiao Linghui, who had been hiding quietly on the three-wheeled motorcycle, jumped off the motorcycle and ran straight towards Lin Yiran.
They just saw the aunt blocking her face with a black object, looking like she was having fun.
Xiao Lingyan glanced at the one hanging around her uncle's neck and felt a pang of curiosity in her heart.
"Aunt, what is this?"
Lin Yiran lowered her eyes and looked at Xiao Lingyan, whose eyes were bright, and smiled.
"That's a telescope. You and Ling Hui each get one. Go play with it."
Xiao Lingyan's eyes widened with excitement.
"Thank you, Auntie..."
"Thank you, auntie..." Xiao Linghui stared with her round eyes and quickly followed suit to express her gratitude.
"You're welcome." Lin Yiran smiled and handed two binoculars to the two children.
"Putting a telescope in front of your eyes will allow you to see farther."
When the battle just started, the arrows and huge rocks flying all over the sky must have scared the two children a lot.
Now that they have taken the city, they can finally relax.
