Chapter 616 Crisis Sudden!

Oh oh oh!
The strange bone flute sounded again.

Xiang Rong was like the tide receding, and some of the guards, as if exhausted, collapsed directly, panting violently.

On the far side of the city, some Xiang Rong were rushing from left to right, trying to break out of the siege.

The guards tried their best to kill the remaining Xiang Rong, and they all staggered to the ground, gasping for breath, and their chests kept beating like a bellows.

In four days, there were six bloody battles, and each time they fought for several hours, the guards were exhausted.

It's not that their physical strength is weak, but that they have been fighting bloody battles, and it's hard to rest. After several days, they have accumulated fatigue, so that now, some soldiers are extremely difficult just to raise their arms.

They were lying in the pile of dead people, motionless, except for panting, they were completely indistinguishable from dead people.

Even Han Lin had to lean against the city wall, slumped on the ground, gasping for breath.

He never expected that Xiangrong's attack times would be so numerous.

In the four days, on two days, they attacked twice in a row!

Xiang Rong had never been so active in attacking Yinglan City and Luo City, so why is he so crazy now?

Does Xiang Rong not care about losses?

More importantly, it was the continuous bloody battles that made Han Lin understand that in addition to strength and speed, Xiang Rong's endurance is also very strong.

Every time they attack, the opponent is like a new force, without any sign of fatigue.

On the other hand, because the city wall is long, many guards must be arranged, and guards must be placed on all sides, so there are not many soldiers who can be rotated.

Many guards have never rested at all, and they are fighting every day, so they are getting more and more tired.

Until now, I am too tired to move.

Even he, a city lord, was a little out of breath.

He faintly felt that this was Xiang Rong's tactic!

In order to keep them exhausted, until one day, no matter how difficult it is to hold the city...

Thinking of this, Han Lin trembled and felt chills all over his body!

How could he accept such a fate, he gritted his teeth quickly, stood up with difficulty, and said to everyone, "Hold on, everyone, now is the time to compete with Xiang Rong to the limit. As long as we hold on, the first one who can't hold on must be Xiangrong!"

"As long as we persevere, victory must belong to us!"

Hearing Han Lin's shout, some of the guards bred a little strength and slowly got up.

They looked at Han Lin, their resolute eyes shining brightly in the setting sun!
But more soldiers could only wave their hands with difficulty. They were really unable to get up, so they could only wave their hands as a signal.

Slowly, as night approached, many guards rested for a while, and after dinner, they continued to defend.

Xu was too tired, many soldiers were leaning on the city wall, their eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand catties, and they kept falling, as if they were about to close.

But how dare they fall asleep, they suddenly trembled, opened their eyes, and after looking around, saw that there was no one outside the city, they were relieved.

But then, the eyelids were extremely heavy, and slowly fell down again, always in a state of falling asleep.

At this moment, dozens of scouts came to the city wall along the stairs from the city.

Seeing so many guards looking drowsy, the scouts couldn't help but frown.

They wanted to remind them, but when they saw these guards with dried blood on their armor, they couldn't help feeling sour, and suppressed the words that came out of their mouths.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the soldiers regained their spirits, turned around and found that it was a scout, and asked, "Are you going out of the city to inspect?"

The scouts nodded.

These scouts do not participate in the defense of the city, but are responsible for patrolling the city in the middle of the night to prevent the elephant army from attacking the city, which is also a dangerous job.

So, the soldiers used hanging baskets to drop the scouts one by one into the city.

Then, in the middle of the night, these scouts turned into shadows and sneaked around.

The guards on the top of the city were already exhausted, but they were responsible for guarding the city and dared not be negligent.

But now, the scouts are sent out, and if there is danger around them, these scouts will send back as soon as possible.

Therefore, the task of inspection has been handed over to the scouts, and the guards have lightened their burdens, so they all lean against the city wall and take a nap to recover their energy.

……

The woods under the night were pitch black and extremely deep. There were no birdsong around, and it was extremely silent.

Walking into such an environment, the tall and thin Scout Dingyue felt a little tense physically and mentally.

In order to avoid attracting attention, he did not dare to use lighting tools such as torches or torches, so he could only walk slowly in the dark forest under the dim moonlight.

He didn't dare to take too heavy a step, and he had to control the strength of each step so as not to make a sound.

But at this moment, he suddenly heard strange movements coming from ahead!

It's like... the sound of dead branches being crushed!
someone!

The scout stopped suddenly, not daring to move forward, and listened quietly, wondering if it was just an auditory hallucination.

But at this moment, the front was extremely quiet, without any sound.

The scouts listened for a while, but they didn't hear anything, so they couldn't help being surprised.

Is it really an auditory hallucination?

With such doubts, he could only take a step and move forward carefully.

As he walked, he guessed, if there was someone, could it be other companions?

Impossible, the exploration range of each scout has been fixed, and it is impossible to meet each other.

Could it be Xiang Rong's scouts?
But he had never heard that Xiang Rong would send out scouts.

Is that Xiang Rong?
But Xiang Rong came out late at night, so why?
After all, here is not a short distance from Xiang Rong's habitat, even if Xiang Rong relieved himself, he would not come to this forest.

As for the night attack... Thinking of this possibility, the scout shook his head, not quite convinced.

From Xiang Rong's southern invasion to the present, in the past few months, whether it was attacking Dali or Linzhan, Xiang Rong had never attacked in the middle of the night.

Therefore, he feels that this possibility is unlikely.

But I'm afraid just in case... A trace of worry arose in the scout's heart.

With this worry in mind, he walked forward slowly, his eyes wide open, and he kept looking around in the dim moonlight.

After walking for a certain distance, he suddenly felt panicked, and stopped hastily, not daring to go forward.

Years of experience told him that there are problems ahead!

Because, he heard faintly, panting!

And the very slight sound of footsteps!

A big piece!

Horror, it has spread all over my heart!
But in order to find out, he could only grit his teeth, courageously, and move forward cautiously.

The voice became clearer and clearer, he didn't dare to go any further, so he hid behind a tree trunk, carefully poked his head and looked forward, suddenly, his pupils opened wide!
Under the dim moonlight in the distance, there are Xiangrong one by one, holding a long knife, walking lightly!
The scout was so shocked that he quickly retracted his head and gritted his teeth!
He thought about it very much, and immediately rushed back to Dingyue to send an urgent report.

But years of experience have told him that the more anxious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes!

If it makes a sound and is heard by Xiang Rong, it will be difficult to escape later!

It's fine if you die, if you can't spread the news, it will be a big mistake!

Therefore, he tried his best to calm down his eagerness, and after a while, he took a step forward cautiously.

The steps were extremely light, without the slightest sound.

After confirming that he was not in a hurry, the scout was about to step forward and leave carefully and quickly, but suddenly his forehead felt cold!
He hastily stretched out his hand, touched his forehead, and actually touched the water stains!
He was suddenly surprised, is it raining?
He raised his head and looked towards the sky, but before he could see the sky, his pupils shrank like needlepoints!
I saw a Xiang Rong squatting on the crown of the tree above his head, staring at him closely, drooling from his mouth!

Panic, madness breeds!
The scout was terrified and was about to run away, but Xiang Rong was faster!
Jumping down like a sharp arrow, Xiang Rong ruthlessly charged at the scouts!
The long knife pierced through the neck, not even making a miserable howl!

……

The night is deep and ugly, the dark moon hanging high, and the quiet surroundings urge people to fall asleep.

The already exhausted guards were already leaning against the city wall, drowsy.

Some people were half asleep and half awake, some could barely open their eyes, looked around the city for a while, and then continued to doze off again.

They didn't see that in the dark distance, there was an unidentifiable black shadow flickering.

These black shadows seem to be approaching constantly, with slow speed and slight movements.

If you don't look closely, it's hard to find out.

On the left side of the city wall, a guard drooped his eyelids and almost fell asleep, but when the cool night wind blew, he suddenly shivered and regained some energy.

He opened his eyes, glanced outside the city, shrunk his body, and was about to take a few steps back, but suddenly, his whole body stopped!

In his suddenly widened eyes, black shadows shaking in the distance reflected one after another!
"Enemy attack!"

A scream full of horror shocked the entire night!

The drowsy guard suddenly woke up, and only then did he see some unidentifiable black shadows in the distance.

Shocked, they rushed to the battle drums, not daring to have the slightest courage, picked up the drumsticks, and beat the drums frantically!

"Boom boom boom!"

The heavy drum sound suddenly resounded, and the entire military town was alarmed!

In the barracks, the guards suddenly woke up and quickly put on their armor. They had no idea that Xiang Rong would also attack at night!
After piercing the armor, the guards took up their weapons and hurried to the top of the city.

But at this time, Xiang Rong no longer hid his tracks, and rushed towards Dingyue crazily. In a short time, he rushed to the bottom of the city and began to climb!
In a hurry, the guards quickly counterattacked.

But the arrows, which were not dense, failed to cause much damage to Xiang Rong. After a while, Xiang Rong climbed to the top of the city!
At this time, the large troops could barely arrive, and if they failed to form an effective line of defense, they had to start hand-to-hand combat.

The fight at the head of the city suddenly started when the guards were in a hurry!
Flesh, stumps, splashing constantly!

There were bursts of howling!
In an instant, the guards suffered great casualties!
Han Lin hurried over with his own soldiers.

Seeing this scene, his whole heart sank into his stomach, extremely dignified!
Unexpectedly, Xiang Rong was really playing tricks!
First, frequent sieges made the defenders exhausted, and then a sudden night attack!
Shocked, he hastily hissed, "Counterattack with all your strength, beat Xiang Rong down!"

Pulling out his long knife, he rushed towards Xiang Rong with a full face of determination!
Even if he fights for his life, Dingyue must not be allowed to fall!
