Chapter 629 Guarding the East City Gate
Chapter 629 Guarding the East City Gate
Xiao Rongyan clenched his fists on the side, turned his head and bowed to Lu Ping, and said, "Also please guard Lu, and immediately send someone to secretly watch the four gates of the palace. If there is any change in these four gates... report it to Miss Bai to know in time. !"
Lu Ping could see that this Mr. Xiao was probably not simple, but this Mr. Xiao was for the Bai family this time, and he had won the trust of the eldest girl. Lu Ping did not hesitate to claim it.
General Xiao Wang led his troops in pursuit all the way. After chasing several alleys, he realized that Bai Qingyan was not going out of the city, but going to the Prince's Mansion!
The prince's mansion is surrounded by people from the patrol battalion. It is unknown whether they can kill Bai Qingyan like in the past, and they will also consume their own troops.
After reacting, General Xiao Wang reluctantly reined in the pain and raised his hand to signal the soldiers to stop. As long as Princess Zhen Guo does not leave the capital city, there will be no threat if there are no soldiers in his hands.
The most important thing now is to guard the four gates of the capital city and never let Princess Zhen Guo go out. He understands this, and those who believe in the king understand it even more.
Since there is no way to kill Bai Qingyan right now, it is better to go back and save your strength before it is exposed, and wait until King Xin and the Prince's troops are almost exhausted before doing it!
General Xiao Wang covered the bloody arrow wound, gritted his teeth and said, "Send someone to order the soldiers heading to the east gate to withdraw."
As he spoke, General Xiao Wang turned his horse's head and walked back.
The streets of the metropolitan city today are quiet and deserted, and the common people are hiding at home one after another, so as not to suffer from unwarranted disasters.
The bustling long street is usually bustling, but now there is not even a ghost, and it is still dark... The house is even darker, but ordinary people and merchants dare not light up the lamps.
Especially after the shouts of killing and the sound of weapons colliding came from the direction of the palace, the east gate also suddenly made a loud noise of killing. How many ordinary people with their wives and children, the whole family huddled together, so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe. I was afraid that if I made any noise, I would be angered by those soldiers.
This day in the metropolis...how can it change?
No one knows who is mobilizing troops to make trouble, let alone whether the victors will kill, even ordinary people after the winner is decided.
General Xiao Wang's face was pale because of blood loss, and before he brought his soldiers back, he heard... He sent the Nandu Army to block Bai Qingyan at the east gate of the capital city, and fought with the defenders, and asked General Xiao Wang to go for reinforcements.
Originally, King Xian got the news that the people of King Xin had already controlled the four gates of the capital city. After all... King Xin wanted to guard against the 20,000 soldiers from the Anping Camp, so the people sent by General Xiao Wang pretended to be King Xin people.
But I never expected that the prince's people had already quietly replaced the people of King Xin. When they heard that the people of King Xin were here to intercept Princess Zhenguo, the general who guarded the city did not say a word, and led his troops downstairs. He cut off the head of General Xiao Wang's lieutenant general, and let the east gate defenders take down the rebels, and the east gate immediately fought.
When General Xiao Wang heard this, he secretly thought that something was wrong...
In case any Nandu army was captured alive, there would definitely be a soft-boned confession for King Xian. General Xiao Wang gritted his teeth and rushed towards the east gate with a hundred archers.
From a distance, under the east gate city, there were broken limbs, corpses lying all over the ground, gold and daggers collided, sparks splashed, and the screams of killing were intertwined.
Seeing the Nandu Army being surrounded by the city defenders, General Xiao Wang gritted his teeth and shouted: "Archers prepare!"
The archers stopped immediately, set their arrows and drew their bows in an orderly manner, and headed towards the east gate...
The general guarding the city is not a vegetarian either, he was already on guard when he saw that the soldiers were not good at coming, but now he saw the incoming soldiers with arrows and bows, as if he was going to overwhelm them, he hurriedly shouted: "Retreat! ! Heavy shields are ready! Archers are ready!"
"General!" The soldiers beside General Xiao Wang exclaimed, "There are still our brothers from the Nandu Army!"
General Xiao Wang turned a deaf ear, his eyes were bloodshot, and he said loudly: "Let go!"
If they can't be rescued, they will all be shot and killed. They must not leave anyone alive and let others take advantage of it, exposing Xian Wang's plan in advance.
The city defenders retreated quickly. When the Nandu army saw General Xiao Wang coming, they thought they were coming to save them. As soon as the city defenders retreated, they rushed towards General Xiao Wang. Unexpectedly, what greeted them...was the arrows of their own comrades. wear chest.
Some of the defenders who did not have time to hide behind the heavy shield were also shot, and after falling to the ground, they quickly crawled back behind the heavy shield enduring the pain.
After the first batch of archers of the Nandu Army released their arrows, the second batch drew their bows and arrows and stepped forward...
Finally, General Xiao Wang couldn't hold back his heart. He raised his hand high, clenched his fists tightly, and shouted to the Nandu Army who stood there in a daze and dared not go forward: "Why are you still standing there! Withdraw!"
Only then did the Nandu Army regain their senses, and hurriedly ran towards General Xiao Wang.
Behind the heavy shield, the archer squatted, and the arrow was already on the bow...
The general guarding the city looked at General Xiao Wang, but he didn't recognize which general in the forbidden army he was, and said loudly: "Shoot the arrow!"
With an order, the archer suddenly stood up from behind the heavy shield and shot arrows in the direction of the fleeing Nandu Army.
The screams resounded above the metropolis... The sky was gloomy and black with rolling clouds.
Seeing this, General Xiao Wang turned his horse's head: "Everyone who is alive, follow up! Run!"
After speaking, he led the Nandu army to flee into the alley.
Under the tower, someone asked the general guarding the city: "General, do we want to chase?"
The general who defended the city shook his head: "Our first task is to guard the east city gate. Those who believed in the king ran away, and there might be a tough battle in a while! Send a team to clean up the battlefield and see if anyone is still alive. If anyone is alive, catch them, and then they will be the evidence of King Xin’s rebellion! The rest of the people go up to the tower and prepare their bows and arrows!”
"yes!"

When Bai Qingyan arrived at the Prince's Mansion, the patrol battalion blocked the water around the Prince's Mansion and vowed to protect the Prince's safety. Fan Yuhuai stood at the gate of the Prince's Mansion with a sword in his hand like a door god.
Hearing the sound of horseshoes approaching from far away, Fan Yuhuai immediately ordered the archers to prepare.
When he saw clearly that Bai Qingyan in military uniform was surrounded by nine guards holding high torches, Fan Yuhuai immediately had his bow and arrows collected, walked down from the high steps, and bowed to Bai Qingyan: " I’ve met Princess Zhen Guo!”
Fan Yuhuai deeply felt that the entrance of the Prince's Mansion was not a place to talk, and he also knew that Bai Qingyan was now considered the Prince's confidant, and when most accidents happened, it was Bai Qingyan who escorted the Prince all the way back from Dengzhou.
Fan Yuhuai invited Bai Qingyan into the Prince's residence.
Before the prince left, he had already sent someone to the Bai Mansion to inform Bai Qingyan to leave the city immediately from the east gate and bring 20,000 Dengzhou troops into the city to rescue him. Fan Yuhuai saw Bai Qingyan here so soon, presumably he and the prince sent an order people staggered.
Bai Qingyan jumped off the horse, and arched his hand holding the Wujin horsewhip towards Fan Yuhuai: "Bai Qingyan, please see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
As soon as he entered the Prince's Mansion, Fan Yuhuai lowered his voice and said to Bai Qing: "His Royal Highness has already entered the palace!"
