Chapter 445 Tianshuang County Falls
Seeing this, the steward turned around and cupped his fists at Song Tianli.
"Thank you, Master Song, little one."
Song Tianli waved his hand, then paced away. In his eyes, the person in charge is just a servant, the difference is that this is a higher-ranking servant.
But in the end, it's still a servant.
Therefore, Song Tianli was not in the mood to deal with this steward.
Seeing this, the steward lowered his head with a humble expression, but there was a gleam of coldness in his eyes, and he thought to himself: How dare you despise me so much for a lifeless thing, today is the day of your Song family's death.
After Song Tianli left, the steward walked into the station with a big swagger. When passing by the guard, he gave him a deliberate stare, arrogantly.
The guards didn't look sideways.
The steward walked into the station and found Yicheng.
When the territory builds a station, the system will automatically generate a postman who will be responsible for sending and receiving mail. The post is not under the jurisdiction of the territory. If unfortunately killed by an assassin, it will automatically be resurrected after one day.
Yicheng greeted with a smile: "Guest officer, send or receive letters?"
"neither."
"No, what are you doing here?"
"Take your life!"
"you!"
Before Yi Cheng finished speaking, he saw a flying needle, like lightning, instantly shot into his heart. The poisonous needle entered the body, the toxin spread, and Yi Cheng was killed on the spot without making a sound.
It turned out that the humble steward was actually a martial arts master hired by the Ruan family at a huge expense. For this operation, the Ruan family can be considered to have worked hard.
With a flash of white light, Yi Cheng's body disappeared. After a day, it will be revived again. The guards outside the station, because they didn't hear anything, naturally wouldn't come in to check.
The steward arranged the scene, and then walked out of the station calmly. In this way, the teleportation array and post stations in Tianshuang County were paralyzed one after another, and external communication was completely blocked.
After the steward left, he came to a remote alley, fired a signal flare, and then disappeared.
"Who's firing the flare?"
Song Wen also just got up and is doing morning exercises in the courtyard.
"Come on!"
"exist!"
"Go and find out for me."
"promise!"
At this time, any disturbance would touch Song Wen's sensitive nerves. His father is dealing with the family. As the eldest son, Song Wen's duty is to ensure that Tianshuang County is safe.
When he woke up in the morning, Song Wen felt a little restless. The flare that suddenly lifted into the sky gave him a bad premonition, as if something terrible was about to happen.
Just as Song Wen was frowning and thinking, the 200,000 troops of the [Southern League] had rushed towards Tianshuang County. The overwhelming army came directly to the outskirts of Tianshuang County through the teleportation array.
As soon as they get the signal, they immediately rush out of the camp.
The city gate guards, looking at the army approaching from a distance, trembled with fear.
The 200,000 troops lined up together, with no end in sight at a glance, the outside of the city turned black, and the black crowd came surging, trying to swallow up Tianshuang County.
Under the blue sky, the Kuroshio surged, flags fluttered, and spears stood everywhere.
One after another, the square formations were uniform, with swords and shields, archers, and cavalry. Mixed with the army, there are also siege vehicles, trebuchets and mobile arrow towers.
The war horse neighs, and the war drum thunders.
Before the army arrived, a burst of momentum like a mountain came rushing towards us.
The overwhelming murderous aura made people unable to breathe.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The sky-shattering killing cries echoed in the wilderness, endlessly.
The soldiers stepped on the drums, shouted slogans, and moved forward firmly. Any creature standing in front of the army will be reduced to dust. None of the people outside the city was spared, and they didn't even have time to run.
Because within a few miles, wherever there is open space, soldiers are full of soldiers.
run? Where are you going?
In the army formation, a random rain of arrows will send the people to the road to the underworld.
The army did not waver at all, stepped on the corpses of the people, and continued to move forward without wasting a single minute. It seemed that what they killed was not a group of living people, but a group of small ants.
In troubled times, where is there mercy?
The city gate was in chaos.
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze!"
"Let me in, let me in quickly."
"My child, where is my child? Who saw my child?" Among the crowd, a woman walked in the opposite direction with an anxious expression.
"Close the city gate, quick, close the city gate!"
At the moment of life and death, the guards at the city gate directly pulled up the suspension bridge regardless of the life and death of the people. Those who dare to block will be killed.
"Ah, it's killing people, the officers and soldiers are killing people!"
"Devil, you are demons!"
"Damn it, you're going to hell."
"Er Gouzi, it's me. I'm your neighbor's aunt, Er Gouzi, save Auntie!" A woman yelled at a guard with an anxious expression and a hint of expectation.
The guard, face sinking like water, seemed to be deaf, still waving the butcher knife. On the soldier's young face, two lines of tears flowed out.
Many of these common people are the neighbors of the soldiers, and they are even related.
Now, the soldiers want to wave butcher knives at them, how cruel the world is. The aunt did not wait for rescue and died in the chaos of knives, her eyes were full of unwillingness and panic.
The woman who lost her child was still shouting anxiously, trying to find the lost child in the crowd.
"Children, children!"
At this moment, a child walked out from the corner of the city gate.
Weeping with joy, the woman stepped forward quickly, trying to push away the crowd and join the child. There is also an innocent smile on the child's face, and the soaring braid on the top of his head is really cute.
Suddenly, a sharp arrow pierced through the air and pierced the woman's chest.
"Uh!"
The happy expression of the woman froze on her face, but there was infinite anxiety in her eyes. At this moment, all she thought about was the child's safety, and she completely disregarded her own life and death.
"Wow~~~"
The toddler in the distance cried out when he saw his mother lying on the ground.
The cries of the children, amidst the din, were extremely ear-piercing. At this moment, a guard finally couldn't bear it, rushed out, and carried the child back.
"Wow~~~"
The toddler was crying and fussing, his little head kept facing where his mother had fallen.
The brave mother, seeing her child rescued, was filled with relief, and died of breathlessness. Those who sacrificed with her were hundreds of ordinary people.
Before the battle started, the gate of the city was already dripping with blood.
Things are hard and life is like dirt.
"Quick, go and report to your lord!"
The guard trembled a little when he spoke, and his teeth were gritted.
"promise!"
A guard ran down the tower in a panic and headed straight for the lord's mansion.
There is no need for the guards to report, the sound of war drums outside the city has long caused unrest in the city. The people in the city are all too familiar with the sound of war drums.
For a while, the people in the city were panicked.
As soon as Song Wen rushed out of the lord's mansion, he collided with the guard who came to report the letter.
"Say, what's going on?"
Song Wen tried his best to calm himself down and give orders. At this time, anyone can panic, but he cannot panic.
"My lord, what's wrong with my lord, the army, a dense army."
The guard was obviously terrified, and when he reported it, he was confused.
"How many enemy troops are there, and which troops are they?"
Song Wen didn't get angry, but asked in a gentle voice. His words were full of calming power.
Hearing Song Wen's words, the guard regained his composure and was no longer so nervous. "It's innumerable, incalculable, at least over 100,000. There are all kinds of flags, all of which have never been seen before."
Song Wen frowned upon hearing this.
In Tianshuang County, there are only 3,000 defenders, and the main force has been led by Song Wu to join the Shanhai City army and obey Bai Qi's unified command and dispatch.
Song Wen didn't expect that the enemy would target Tianshuang County.
It's wrong, it's really wrong.
The lords of Zhaoqing County have difficulty protecting themselves, so why are they still willing to attack Tianshuang County?
Thinking of the countless unknown flags that the guard had just described, Song Wen's heart trembled. He knew that forces outside Zhaoqing County must have intervened in the Battle of Zhaoqing.
As for who it is, it is not the most important thing now.
The most important thing right now is how to tide over the difficulties. Tianshuang County will never allow it to fall.
Otherwise, not only the strategy of Shanhai City will be affected; more importantly, Tianshuang County is the painstaking effort of the Song family. Once it falls, all operations of the Song family will fail.
Thinking of this, Song Wen couldn't help but shudder.
"Come on!"
"exist!"
Song Wen took out the lord's seal and handed it to the guards, "Take my seal quickly and send it to Shanhai City for help. He said it was urgent, and he must come to help."
"Please rest assured, my lord!"
Knowing the urgency of the situation, the personal guard turned around and headed towards the teleportation formation.
Like Shanhai City, the teleportation array in Tianshuang County is not far from the Lord's Mansion. Song Wen was about to go to the city tower to supervise the battle in person, but before he could go far, he heard the voice of the guards shouting from behind.
"My lord, something serious happened!"
The guard ran over, his face pale.
Song Wen's heart trembled again, the bad premonition became stronger and stronger.
"Say it!"
"My lord, the teleportation array has stopped, it's useless at all."
"what?"
Song Wen's face turned pale with shock, he could no longer maintain his composure, and his body trembled.
At this moment, Song Wen's heart was ashamed. He knew that Tianshuang County was over, and the Song family was over.
"My lord, my lord!"
The guard looked at Song Wen with concern, with an anxious expression.
"I can't fall down. Even if it's the last one, the Song family will never surrender."
Song Wen tried his best to stabilize his mind. Now he has no intention to investigate why the system's teleportation array can't be used. The most important thing right now is to inform Wuyi and Bai Qi of the situation in Tianshuang County.
"Go and see if the station is normal."
While writing the letter, Song Wen ordered the guards.
The weird situation made Song Wen feel that a huge conspiracy was hanging over Tianshuang County. At this time, any weird thing is possible.
The post station is already the only channel for Tianshuang County to communicate with the outside world.
Don't let anything happen, Song Wen prayed in his heart.
