The sound of "dongdong" war drums broke the silence of Guandu camp, and also shocked the Xiliang Iron Cavalry lurking outside the camp, almost ruining their positions. △↗

"It's abominable that Ren Jun is so alert!" Seeing that his whereabouts were revealed, Li Li cursed secretly, and then waved his sword: "Two wheels of riding and shooting, capture the gate, and kill!"

The cavalry of ten thousand Jinqiu Guards moved and rushed out of the darkness. But they saw the cavalry of Jinqiu Guards breaking their hands and letting their horses dive and run, each taking the bow and arrow from their backs, putting the bow and stringing them in one go, and then shooting without hesitation. There is no need for unified arrow orders, nor does it require general command, but only by habitual archery shooting. The cavalry of these ten thousand cavalry shots almost at the same time, with unprecedented movements. The arrows shot naturally form a dense and unventilated attack formation in the night sky, rowing vertically, horizontally, and crisscrossing to form a rain of scattered arrows covering the gate tower. This is the cavalry shooting skills of the most elite cavalry in the Xiliang army, and it is also the famous combat skill of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, the only one in the world.

The horse's hooves were fast, and the arrows broke through the air. At first, the sound of horses trampling overwhelming. The soldiers on the east gate of Guandu camp woke up from their drowsy sleep. When they saw the black iron cavalry outside the gate, they all changed their expressions and got up in a hurry. They picked up their weapons and wanted to fight with the enemy troops who were sneaking into the camp. However, the Western Liang Iron Cavalry did not approach the Earth Gate. They took up weapons and set off in panic. What they were waiting for was not the Western Liang cavalry, but the rain of arrows like dark clouds.

The "swoosh" whirring sound tilted down from the sky above the defenders' heads. When the defenders heard the sound and looked up, thousands of sharp arrows rushed over: "Puff puff puff puff————————————————”

The sound of sharp weapon breaking the body continued to sound. Thrilling screams spread one after another, one louder and more violent. Just this first round of cavalry and shooting strike. The defenders on the gate tower suffered huge casualties, and most of the two thousand defenders on the right camp were killed and injured. The originally dense defenders suddenly became sparse. However, the cavalry and shooting strike was not over. After the first round of arrows successfully attacked more than a thousand defenders, the second round of arrow rain followed closely behind and roared, giving the defenders a devastating blow again.

After two wheels of riding and shooting, there were fewer guards at the gate, and less than a hundred soldiers could stand. The city tower built by thatched grass was passed by sharp arrows and was already full of holes. The wind lamp hanging on the beam was hit by a flowing arrow, and the oil lamp was smashed. The remaining flames spread rapidly and rushed to the ceiling along the lamp oil splashed on the pillars. The thatched grass was very easy to burn, and it instantly ignited the thatched city tower. Then the burning fire dispersed the darkness and illuminated the wilderness within two miles of the radius around the gate.

At this moment, fires surged on the city tower, screamed in pain on the plank road of the city tower, and many soldiers who were caught in the arrow were not dead. They were still struggling dyingly, hoping that someone would come to rescue them in time. Sure enough, they waited for reinforcements and watched the chief general Ren Jun lead two thousand soldiers of the Right Battalion and five hundred personal soldiers to rush up to the city tower. Unfortunately, these reinforcements did not come to rescue them, but jumped directly from their bodies or ran towards the gate on their bodies.

Obviously, the importance of the gate at this moment is far above the wounded soldiers who are about to die with arrows. Therefore, General Ren Jun, who has always loved soldiers as much as his son, did not look at them any more after going upstairs, and quickly led his army to take over the defense of the gate. He shot and killed the Western Liang Iron Cavalry who was about to rush to the gate.

Outside the gate, the general of the Jinqi Guard who led his army to rush to the death was the deputy commander Shi A. After two rounds of cavalry and shooting, Shi Ayi led his army to a fifty steps away from the gate. The remaining fifty steps were in an instant. Unexpectedly, just as Shi A raised his sword and rode his horse to dive, a stream of arrows flew towards him. He waved his sword to protect his whole body and rushed forward in the rain of arrows. But the cavalry beside him was not as good as Shi A. Soon, more than a hundred cavalry fell on their faces, and fell to the ground and died. Moreover, the casualties continued to extend, and some cavalry behind him fell down with their horses.

In the blink of an eye, Shi A was the first to rush to the front gate. Just as he was approaching the gate, Shi A suddenly raised his arm and threw out the sword in his hand. Then he stood on the horse's back, stepped on the horse's head, and jumped straight to the wooden stake wall on the left side of the gate with the help of the war horse's sprinting force, and rushed straight to the wooden stake wall on the left side of the gate. At this moment, the sword he had just thrown out was inserted into the archer's chest on the wall; the archer was standing directly above the wall where Shi A was climbing the wall. This man was about to shoot Shi A, but unexpectedly, the sword was pierced through his chest and nailed to the wooden stake wall behind him. He died without even screaming.

The nearly three-meter-high wall was definitely not something Shi A could jump up with a war horse. What a good Shi A! But the moment he jumped onto the wall, he pulled out his sword like lightning with his right hand, and stabbed the sword into the wooden stake with the help of his body's forward rush. Then he grabbed the sword with one hand and swung it with a graceful posture of flipping over the air. What's amazing is that the place where he landed was in front of the archer being penetrated by the sword.

It was a long time to say that. The moment he jumped onto the wall, Shi A had not yet stood firm, but had already pulled out his battle knife. Then he jumped up and avoided the assassination of the two defenders in front and back. The sword flipped over, and Shi A, who was half squatting on the pallet on the wall, instantly attacked the two attacks. Immediately, he held the knife rod horizontally, and the long-handled sword was dancing so hard that it was blown away by him, and he rushed to the side and the footholds emerged among the defenders who rushed up.

Shi A's fierce and bravery greatly encouraged the Jinqiu cavalry who rushed over. But when the three hundred personal soldiers under Shi A's tent avoided the gate and detoured to the left of the gate. Taking advantage of the gap between Shi A's snare, they took out the iron hook rope from the leather bag on the horse's back, and threw the iron hook while riding the horse while approaching the wall. When they approached the wall, they jumped up, grabbed the rope and leaped up along the wooden stakes in the wall. Within a few breaths, they jumped onto the wall and joined the battle on the wall.

As Shi A's personal soldiers jumped onto the wall one after another, the pressure on the defenders on the left side of the city tower increased greatly, while Shi A's pressure, who was originally fighting alone, reduced sharply, allowing him to escape and turn to the gate tower.

"How could this guy be so fierce!" After witnessing the scene of Shi A-climbing the wall with his own eyes, Ren Jun was shocked and couldn't help but exclaim. Then he asked the general beside him: "This Western Liang Iron Cavalry that sneaked into the camp was the Jinqiwei Iron Cavalry under the command of Emperor Li Li Li of Jin. Do you recognize this person? Could this person be the slave Li Zhi who is so powerful in the world?" Others call Li Zhi "Flying General", but Ren Jun sneered at this and still called Li Zhi "Slave". The slave is also a maggot. From this, it can be seen that Ren Jun called Li Zhi "Slave", which really meant to be insulting. It is a wise move to deliberately belittle the enemy generals, destroy the prestige of others, and increase his ambition.

The general was shocked by Shi A's courage. He woke up from the sound and said in a panic: "Report to General, General, as far as the general knows, flying general, uh, no, the slave Li Zhi is good at using iron chains over two feet long to make weapons. He also heard that he is nearly meter tall, with ape arms and a bee waist, and has the ability to fly over the eaves and walk on the wall. If the person in front of him is Li Zhi, then he didn't need to leap on the wall with his sword just now. He just had to throw out the chain to climb the city tower. Therefore, the person in front of him was not Li Zhi. If Mo Jiang was not wrong, this person should be Shi A, the disciple of the great sword master Wang Yue."

"Shi Ah? Is the commander of the guards beside His Majesty, and the brother of the Central Guards Shi Huan?" Ren Jun asked in surprise.

The general nodded in response: "What the general said is not bad. It is said that Shi Huan, one of the two commanders of the imperial guards around His Majesty, is Shi A's cousin (cousin), who is five years old. However, although these two are brothers of the same clan, they have different ambitions. General Shi Huan followed His Majesty in his early years, but Shi A followed his master Wang Yuetou under the command of Emperor Han Liu Xie, believing that Liu Xie was the orthodox emperor of the world, while other princes had their names were not justified. However, when Emperor Jin Li Li took charge of the Chang'an court, Wang Yue and his disciples joined him in his command. After that, he was highly appreciated by Li Li and entrusted with important tasks. Shi A in front of him is currently the deputy general of the Jin Qi Guard. Although he is the deputy general, he has already been appointed as a general and has won the title of marquis. He is deeply trusted by Emperor Jin Li Li, and is a loyal hawk under Li Li's command."

After hearing this, Ren Jun nodded slightly and sighed softly: "Your Majesty had said before that there were many warriors under Li Li of the Western Jin Dynasty, and there were many generals gathered. I didn't believe it, and I was deeply suspicious of this. I didn't expect it, but I saw it with my own eyes. What Your Majesty said is true. The generals under Li Li are really extremely fierce!" After speaking, Ren Jun's face showed deep worries, frowned, and couldn't help but turn his eyes to the gray area thirty steps behind the gate. It was the only way to go to the Central Army's tent and grain warehouse. At this moment, there was no trace of trampling on these gray areas. Instead, the yellow areas sandwiched between the brown areas were covered with footprints, which were very messy, and there were clearly visible horse hoof prints.

At this critical moment when the gate was about to be captured, Ren Jun turned his attention here. It is not difficult to see that he had high hopes for this gray area and even placed the safety of the entire camp here.

"All the soldiers follow me to kill!" Just as Ren Jun was slightly distracted, he suddenly heard a stern shout. He immediately looked in the sound and saw a familiar figure. Especially the black armor and the seat under the crotch were particularly eye-catching. The black armor did not reflect under the light of fire, and the golden golden mount was even tall and mighty. The two scarlet eye beads as big as eggs were much brighter than the fire. It made people stand upright and frightened.

As the golden mount got closer, Ren Jun finally recognized the origin of this strange beast mount, which was the famous divine beast Jinniang.
