☆ 45 Smoke Signals/Lang Smoke

Chi ye newly rushed out without anyone's help. Xin Yi took out a short knife from his waist. The sharpened short knife and the young man combined to create a dangerous aura, like a whirlwind approaching in the blink of an eye. Xin Yi supported the horse's back with his hands, hung on the horse's neck, raised his body and stepped on Arsalan's long knife.

Arsalan's arm sank, and then he lifted up the sword and himself. Xin Yi let go of Chi Ye, bent over and pressed on the back of the long sword, turned over and spun his legs towards Arsalan's neck. Arsalan raised his head to avoid it, and the long sword slid down. Xin Yi took advantage of the situation and rushed forward, holding the short sword horizontally, slashing towards Arsalan's chest in the cold light.

The red sprayed out of his clothes on his chest, and Arsalan turned his knife and flick Xin Yi's short knife with his hand. The Tian Dao/Heavenly Way jumped into his hand. He turned around and retreated, and the distance between the two people suddenly expanded.

Arsalan threw away the dagger with one hand and wiped his chest. He looked up at Xin Yi and suddenly laughed. Xin Yi turned the Heavenly Way over and held it horizontally. He was not wearing a helmet, revealing a very young face, but it was completely different from the youth Arsalan had seen in Dalan before.

This is a young man. No one spoke, their eyes were enough to torture each other. Xin Yi jumped up again, and this time Arsalan did not underestimate the enemy. He moved his toes and was as steady as a rock.

"Squadrons will encircle them." Wu Yu ordered on horseback, "The vanguard will charge forward, and drive these barbarians out of the street! Drive them out!" His voice, which was always used to make fun of others, was unexpectedly reliable and stable at this moment, "Soldiers, go to the city gate! Push the people from Xiajin out in front, and follow the archers from Lijin behind! Once the city gate is clear, immediately block the enemy and fix the gate for me! " As he said this, he groaned and pulled out a kid from his back, the one found in Xianglan City. The kid hugged his legs and refused to retreat when he saw Xin Yi. He was thrown from Chi ye's back to him by Xin Yi before entering the city. Now he didn't know where to put him, so he could only put him on his horse's back. He said, "What are you doing? If you don't listen, I'll throw you to the barbarians!"

The kid struggled, hugged his arm tightly, lowered his head and bit Wu Yu, making him grimace. He couldn't let go now, so he could only hiss, "Do you still want to see the Prince?" He leaned forward and said angrily, "If you bite me again, I will stop you from seeing him!"

The kid really let go, Wu Yu pulled back his hand, rode his horse and headed for the city gate. It would take a while to drive out the attackers from Shanghua Street, first they had to repair the city gate and cut off the invasion of the Dayuan soldiers. There were no eyes for swords and guns along the way, Wu Yu held the kid in his arms, not wanting him to pop his head out and look around. Seeing that he was not afraid, Wu Yu didn't bother to care .

The city gate had been broken into wooden boards, and the construction team demolished the houses in the residential areas along the way and blocked it again. But this process was extremely difficult. There were still Dayuan soldiers outside the city who were constantly attacking. The hardest cavalry was the heavy cavalry. The armored ones charged and it was not enough to just block with a few wooden boards. Wu Yu couldn't even climb the city wall. If this continued, the reinforcements would be reduced to a remnant army.
