The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 723 The Conspiracy Is Revealed
It was the fourth watch of the night, and the sky was dark. Except for the soldiers on guard, everyone else fell asleep exhausted.

In the dark streets and alleys, men in black appeared around the houses, holding a can of kerosene in their hands, and were pouring dye on the thatch pile.

Just as they were about to ignite, suddenly there was a flash of cold light, and icy arrows suddenly appeared from the night sky.Some men in black were shot in the chest before they had time to react, and fell to the ground with a muffled groan.

"Enemy attack!" The remaining men in black were terrified and fled to the corner to avoid the sneak attack.

At this time, at the corner of the street not far from them, a group of soldiers in black armor and red robes appeared.

"It's the blood guard, we've been spotted, retreat quickly!" The man in black was shocked and tried to escape.

"Scrap, since you're here, let's stay here." A cold voice sounded, and the blood guards on both sides immediately flew up and killed them.

"Clang clang!" The sound of swords and soldiers clashing seemed very abrupt in the silent night.Many houses lit oil lamps, watching the situation outside in fear.

"Tianhua Blood Guard is doing business, everyone, please lock the doors and windows to beware of thieves." The cold voice sounded again, but it was only for the surrounding people.

After a while, all the men in black were wiped out by the blood guards.

"Go, go to Tian's house!" The cold voice came, but there was no one there.

At this time, fierce battles broke out everywhere in Qingyang City.Tian Qi and the others had already gathered hundreds of soldiers and horses, lurking in a house not far from the east gate, silently waiting for chaos to break out in the city.

At this moment, suddenly there was a slight sound outside the door, densely packed, as if to surround the whole house.

Tian Qi frowned slightly, sensing something was wrong, so he immediately ordered someone to go out to check.No, that person had just turned over the wall when he heard a scream, and a figure fell down the wall.

Everyone rushed up to see that the deceased was just that person.Tian Qi's face suddenly turned pale. At this moment, he knew that the great event had been defeated, and everyone was besieged here by the other party.

At this moment, the people outside seemed to no longer care about their whereabouts, and the surrounding torches were lit one by one.

"Listen, the people inside, surrender immediately, or you will be killed without mercy!" A voice outside shouted loudly.

When everyone heard the words, they couldn't help but panic. At this time, they were blocked back and forth, and there was no way to escape.

Tian Qi forced himself to calm down, and immediately said to everyone in a ruthless voice: "Everyone, what we have committed now is the crime of collaborating with the enemy, and they will never let us go. Only by killing us now can we have a chance."

"Patriarch Tian, ​​the city is full of Tianhua Army, even if we escape, where can we hide, and our family, what will they do?" At this time, some Patriarchs have already begun to regret it.

"Hmph, what I'm talking about is to fight to the gate and fight with all your strength. As long as the gate is opened, we will win." Tian Qi showed a hint of madness. "Everyone, life and death depend on this action. If we lose, you and I will commit the crime of ransacking our family and exterminating our clan. If we win, we will all be dignitaries in the future."

"We have been surrounded, how can we rush out now?"

"I have my own way." Tian Qi saw that everyone calmed down a little, and immediately ordered, "Order people to burn this house, as long as it is burned, the Dongyang army outside will attack Qingyang City. We can take advantage of this When the time comes, break out from the gate and take the opportunity to seize the city gate."

Everyone had no idea at this time, so they had to follow Tian Qi's order and set fire to the house.

Just when the surrounding army waited impatiently, a puff of thick smoke suddenly rose from the courtyard, followed by flames.At this moment, the gate suddenly opened, and a group of men in black poured out from the gate, charging towards the encircling army.

"Stubbornly resist, all prepare, kill!"

The first to attack was a rain of arrows, which shot at the gate densely.Holding the wooden shield, the man in black staggered forward. In just a moment, the wooden shield was full of arrows.

"Kill!" Withstood a wave of arrow rain, the man in black immediately rushed towards the encircling army.

"Spearman, hold up! Stab!"

The spear pierced out, and countless men in black fell to the ground unwillingly.Following the orderly assassination, the men in black rushed forward one after another to die.The man in black, who had no formation at all, was no match for the army at all, so he could only sprint in vain.

In the end, the men in black who couldn't take it anymore dared not move forward, and wanted to go back one after another.But there is a raging fire behind, how can we retreat?
"We surrender, don't kill any more!" Some Patriarchs couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted in fear.

At this time, a general of the Tianhua Army shouted in a cold voice: "The general has an order, not to keep any of them, but to kill them all."

"No, how did this happen? How did this happen?" Tian Qi looked at the one-sided massacre in disbelief, feeling cold all over. "Didn't your lord say that you will cooperate with us internally and externally? Why haven't we seen their movement yet? Why did this matter leak, and who leaked it?"

At this time, after hundreds of people were killed and only dozens of people remained, Tian Qi couldn't help laughing sadly and said: "I can't live because I committed a crime, I was the one who killed my people."

As he spoke, he suddenly backed away and ran straight into the blazing sea of ​​flames.

Having lost their leader, the remaining men in black were shot and killed one after another after begging for mercy.

At this time, the Dongyang Army has also begun to launch.After seeing the first flame, Zhu Shengtunyuan couldn't wait to launch an attack. Tens of thousands of elite forward soldiers and horses were the main force and charged towards Yangcheng.

The rapid drum sounded, and countless defenders rushed out of the camp and climbed onto the city wall.At this time, they didn't look a little messy, and they were clearly ready.

At this time, the Dongyang army rushed to the city, but the rain of arrows on the opposite side was very sparse.The leading Dongyang general was overjoyed and immediately ordered to attack the city, trying to occupy the city wall when the defenders could not gather in time.

However, when they flocked to the bottom of the city wall, they suddenly felt greasy under their feet and filled with a pungent smell.

"No, it's the fire oil of the Tianhua Army, retreat quickly, retreat quickly!" General Dongyang quickly sensed that something was wrong, and he couldn't help but ordered to retreat in panic.

However, it was too late, and many torches were thrown from the city wall, instantly igniting the fire oil on the ground, and spreading to the surroundings at an extremely fast speed.

Countless Dongyang soldiers jumped up and down in the sea of ​​flames, and the sound of mourning rang out.The rattan armor on their bodies burned quickly, and each person on fire was struggling in the sea of ​​flames. The scene was very tragic.

Zhu Shengtunyuan was so startled that he was trembling all over, he rushed up just now, but he was the most elite soldier of the Dongyang Army, at this time, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were buried in the sea of ​​flames, how could this not make him panic and angry?
"Damn it, bastard!" Zhuo Shengtunyuan rushed out of the saber from his waist and shouted sharply: "The whole army attacks, kill me!"

It was not yet dawn, but the siege battle had already begun.
