All he saw was a beam of red flames with a long tail swaying up into the sky.
Then, it suddenly exploded in the air.
This light is so dazzling that it can be seen from very far away.
What's going on!
Many people naturally looked up at the night sky.
There were also some people who looked in the direction of the rising red flames with surprise and suspicion.
It seems to be the North City Gate!
Something is going to happen!
Many people's hearts clicked at the same time.
At this time, Liaogou was still camping, and there was no sign of an attack. Fengmen Pass was not threatened, and no one ever told them that red fireworks would be used as an order or signal.
Therefore, these red fireworks must have something to do with the Liao Dog outside the Pass!
Is it to notify Liaogou that it is ready to attack? Or something else?
"kill!"
Just when many people were having doubts in their minds, there was a cold cry of killing just under the north city gate.
The centurion and dozens of soldiers were patrolling through the corridor of the North City Gate. Suddenly, he ran towards the corridor with the spear in his hand.
And the dozens of soldiers behind him had obviously been told what to do, and they all immediately rushed in.
"ah!"
Blinking his eyes, there were screams in the corridor.
Originally, there were only about a dozen soldiers in the corridor. They could not see what was going on outside. They only knew that the Liao army had not charged towards them, and their mentality was relatively relaxed. However, they never expected that their robes would suddenly come from behind.
Before they had time to react, they were all stabbed to the ground.
The smell of blood immediately spread.
"Quick! Stop them!"
“It’s meticulous work!”
"They want to break down the city gate!"
It wasn't until a few seconds passed that the Fengmenguan soldiers outside reacted.
Many people shouted at the same time.
The intentions of these dozens of patrolling soldiers rushing into the corridor were already clear at this time.
There is also an answer to why red fireworks suddenly rise.
Still working together inside and outside!
While notifying the Liao army to attack, they opened the city gate here to create conditions for the Liao army to break through.
It would be a bad thing if these people really opened the city gate!
As a result, while shouting, many surrounding soldiers rushed towards the corridor.
However, the narrow corridor of the North City Gate has become their biggest obstacle at this moment.
The corridor, which is less than one foot wide in total, cannot allow many people to attack at the same time.
Most of these soldiers are armed with long soldiers, let alone three or five. For those with good skills, just two people are a bit of a hindrance.
The rebel soldiers who had rushed inside seemed to have already made plans.
They had anticipated this situation before.
At this moment, they were in the corridor. The people in front were hurriedly killing the soldiers in the corridor, and some were moving away the wooden stakes of the carmen.
Others are spinning the roulette wheel.
They really want to open the city gates.
Open the city gate as quickly as possible!
The people at the back, while they were still shouting outside, had already turned around and pointed their spears outside.
I don't know what kind of temptation they were under. At this moment, they were about to have a confrontation with their own robes, but there was no trace of confusion on their faces.
In the corridor, fighting broke out again.
…
"kill!"
Outside the customs.
At this time, there was suddenly a loud shouting of killing.
I could only see that at the end of Fengmenguan City where the firelight could shine, in the deep darkness, there were dense firelights that lit up almost at the same time.
These torches are like the eyes of wolves, making people shudder.
Before the soldiers on top of the pass could recover from the shock, these torches began to move quickly towards Fengmen Pass.
Setting up camp is just a pretense.
Obviously, these Liao troops had already made all their arrangements under the cover of night.
"Prepare for war!"
"Prepare for war!"
On top of the city, after the defenders at Fengmen Pass came to their senses, some generals hurriedly opened their throats and roared.
The voice was full of urgency, even a little panicked.
Fan Sheng, Wei Tongpu and others all looked extremely sad.
The fourth prince of the Liao Dynasty, Yelu Qiji, is really full of tricks!
Previously, they did not think that the Liao army could break through Fengmen Pass before the pass ran out of ammunition and food, but now, they did not know whether they could hold it tonight.
It's terrible.
First burn the grain and grass, and then open the city gate with fine work, so that the army can hide in the dark.
This series of schemes makes it difficult for people to guard against.
Fan Sheng was filled with bitterness and felt that he had never been so passive. However, looking at the Liao army approaching quickly, all he could do now was to lead his troops to defend.
Furthermore, I just pray that the north gate can be defended.
There are still some masters in the army, and they should be able to kill those rebels soon!
pity.
"Bang!"
Such an idea had just come to his mind when a rumble was heard from the north city gate.
It's gunpowder!
Those guys actually have gunpowder hidden in them!
Fan Sheng and Wei Tongpu both turned pale. At this moment, they couldn't help but look at each other, and two words came out of their minds at the same time, "It's over..."
Although gunpowder cannot break through the city gate, I am afraid of the masters in the corridor...
"Lao Wei!"
Fan Sheng gritted his teeth, "You can only lead people to guard the city gate yourself! The city gate must not be breached!"
He had no choice but to let Wei Tongpu guard that side.
Although the North City Gate is not wide, it will definitely be a big trouble if it is captured by the Liao army.
If nothing else goes wrong, after the Liao army captures the North City Gate, they will send out their elite troops to quickly open up the situation. As long as they capture the corridor, their soldiers will continue to pour in from the outside.
"Come with me!"
Wei Tongpu said nothing, only turned to shout to a general, and hurried down to the city.
The general turned around and waved his hands to the soldiers waiting behind him, and hurriedly ran towards the city head.
Fan Sheng looked at Wei Tongpu's back, but for some reason, he felt an uneasy feeling growing stronger and stronger in his heart.
And as if to confirm his premonition, there was suddenly a huge movement in the north city gate corridor.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
Several groups of fire exploded in succession.
The power may not be great, but the movement is definitely amazing.
gunpowder!
Then, several figures in black jumped out of the corridor.
They did not hold long-handled weapons like ordinary soldiers, but they all held curved short swords and a shield.
After escaping from the corridor, they all used shields to protect their vital points. They bent their waists and rushed towards the Dayu soldiers outside the corridor.
