The first ray of sunshine in the early morning of winter shines down, shining on the smoke area. A breeze blows, and the thick smoke gradually dissipates, making the city walls and eyes visible in the distance.

But can that city still be called a city? The soldiers of Dashun looked at the opposite side quietly. The entire wall had collapsed, and there was a lookout stand alone. But just after they took a look, the lookout also fulfilled its last mission and fell down with a loud bang. From this direction, Tongcheng was ruined, and even houses closer to the wall were also damaged. Some people were buried under the rubble in their sleep, still breathing, and were struggling dyingly.

The large number of mine explosions triggered earth movements, which shocked the entire Tongcheng beyond recognition. Countless people gathered at the city gate and looked at the opposite side in unknown ways. At the same time, there was a piece of smoke, and the smell of gunpowder was strong and pungent. The soldiers of Zong Sui maintained order in the damaged city gate. At the same time, they were also glad that the person guarding the city last night was not himself, otherwise they would have become corpses under bricks and broken limbs.

As a soldier of Zong Sui, he failed to die on the battlefield, but fell from his own city wall and died. This way of death made them feel particularly frustrated. But why did the city wall suddenly collapse? What was the sudden loud noise coming from the middle of the night?

Someone said: "It's Dashun's heavenly thunder! Only Dashun's heavenly thunder can be emitted, and only Dashun's heavenly thunder can be blown up the city walls. It's Dashun's people who attacked the city! After they slaughtered the city, they finally came to massacre our Tongcheng!"

Such words aroused panic among the people and also caused anger among the people of Zong Sui. Some people said: "No matter whether Zong Sui is good or not, this is our own territory and he cannot tolerate a great reckless attack!"

Someone said: "As a vassal state, Zong Sui tribute every year, isn't this enough? I heard that Dashun attacked and occupied the entire Qianzhou, forcing the Qianzhou Emperor to death, and attacked Gu Shu. He forced Gu Shu to give up half of his territory to be finished. Are you going to force Zong Sui again? How much appetite do they have?"

However, some people also expressed different opinions: "Is it really the Dashun people bombed? But we clearly saw that the explosion was outside the city wall, and there was a five-li defense line there? It is said that Duanmu Anguo set up an agency underground in the Wuli area, just to wait for the Dashun people to attack, and the Wuli area was guarded by his personal soldiers and was strictly guarded. How could the Dashun people attacked as soon as they were told?"

"Yes!" Different opinions were raised, and people immediately analyzed, "If such a large-scale explosion was done by the people of Dashun, they would have exploded the city. What would it take to explode so much land?"

People's rationality was gradually recovered, and the soldiers of Zong Sui were also asked: "You are guarding the city. Did you see what you saw last night? What was buried under the Wuli?"

The soldiers of Zong Sui shook their heads helplessly: "We used to be in turns to defend the city, but since the Lord Duanmu came, we have not allowed us to defend the city anymore. Now, the people who guard the city have been replaced by his personal soldiers. Therefore, we really don't know how to set up what happened outside the city and the five miles of the mechanism."

After saying this, the people's doubts became even more serious. "Now that the bombing is over, the city walls are gone. Where are the Dashun people? Why don't the Dashun people attack?"

As soon as I was asked about this, I immediately heard someone shouting, "Look at the opposite side! Look at the opposite side! Are there people in Dashun over there?"

People looked in the voice, but when the smoke gradually dissipated, the endless army was taken into their eyes. The people of Tongcheng took a breath and thought that what was it that was not the Dashun army? It turned out that the Dashun people were really coming to capture Tongcheng. But why were they standing five miles away? After the blowout was over, come and fight quickly!

The people of Tongcheng looked at the Dashun Army, and the Dashun Army also looked at the people of Tongcheng. Gradually, the people of Tongcheng became a little enlightened. Someone boldly put forward a view: "Thunder bombing the city that day was probably not done by the Dashun Army. In my opinion, it might be that Lord Duanmu Anguo. Wuli, his mechanism is Tianlei, right? He buried Tianlei underground in Wuli, and then exploded last night."

Everyone was in an uproar.

"But why did Duanmu Anguo blow up his side? Is he full and full?"

"Maybe it was accidentally caused by the explosion?"

"No, right! What do you mean by yourself? Duanmu Anguo was originally from Dashun, and he was not from our Zong Sui Dynasty at all!"

"Can all this betrayal? Is it the result of Duanmu Anguo and Dashun Army cooperating with each other?"

The people of Tongcheng were angry. The speculation about this big explosion has since been considered the most reasonable speculation. So someone took the lead in capturing Duanmu Anguo alive, and someone even shouted loudly: "Duanmu Anguo lives in the cellar. Yesterday, the earth moved. I saw him fleeing, right in the south of the city!"

As long as these words were spoken, all the people in Tongcheng rushed towards the south of the city, shouting slogans such as "Catch Duanmu Anguo alive" and "Let Duanmu Anguo bury the dead people in Tongcheng" to vent their anger. Even the soldiers of the Zong Sui Dynasty were anxious because there were their relatives among the dead and injured. So they followed them to search for Duanmu Anguo, not only in the south of the city, but also in every corner of Tongcheng, in order to search for the old thief of Duanmu.

Their every move could not escape the eyes of Dashun people. The Dashun army had already rushed into the minefield that had been blown up by Xuan Tianming's order, half of which were left to look for people, and half rushed into Tongcheng.

At this time, Duanmu Anguo was also in a very embarrassing state. His subordinates told him that the seventh prince and the imperial princess of Dashun entered the minefield. He was so happy that he immediately sent a sharp shot to the city wall, and even tried to blow Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianhua to death while detonating the minefield. Although it was a pity that he did not blow up Xuan Tianming, the weight of Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianhua was enough to make him moved.

However, he did not expect that the explosion in the Wuli minefield would be so shocking. The earth movement caused by Qian made the underground secret room where he was hiding collapse, and he had to escape in a panic. After finally avoiding the movement of the earth for half of the night, he reported to him: "Sir, the ninth prince of Dashun led the army into the city! My subordinates saw that nearly half of them were carrying something called a gun in their hands, and many people were holding thunder."

Duanmu Anguo laughed and said, "Good come! They have guns, and we have them too! They have thunder, and we also have inventory. Let's gather troops and horses, and we will meet the ninth prince in Tongcheng. Let's see if he is his thunder and my thunder is stronger!"

However, before he could be happy for a while, his subordinates spoke: "Sir, we can't assemble. We were killed or injured at the West City Gate last night. There were 20,000 brothers stationed in the West Defense Line who were surrounded by Dashun when they retreated and were destroyed. In addition, the brothers from the East City Gate, the South City Gate and the North City Gate were controlled by the former defenders of Tongcheng. The brothers with guns in their hands went west to respond after hearing that Dashun's Royal Princess and the Seventh Prince entered the minefield. As a result... they met Dashun's Shenji Camp, and none of them came back except their subordinates." While he said, he helplessly handed a pistol that had hit the empty chamber in his hand to Duanmu Anguo. "Sir, my subordinates came back to death to tell you that the guns in our hands seemed different from those of Dashun people. Theirs... were much better than ours."

"What?" Duanmu Anguo was shocked. He never expected that a battle that he had been confident of winning would end up like this. His 100,000 personal soldiers and 20,000 were destroyed! Only one of those who held guns and thunder came back! The soldiers at the Xicheng Gate died under his own thunder! And... he stared at the gun handed over by his subordinates. Is it different from Dashun's? Dashun's better than his? "You can tell me clearly, what's the good thing?" He didn't care about asking how many people there were left. The difference in guns made him deeply afraid. He thought that such a thing that was against the sky was hard to find in the world. It happened that Feng Yuheng had him, and it must be the same, but he didn't expect that someone was better than his.

The subordinate couldn't tell what was going on. After thinking for a long time, he just said, "They ejaculate farther than us, fight faster, and look much stronger than ours." Thinking about it again, he concluded, "It's like we eat coarse grains, and they eat white rice."

This is really an appropriate metaphor. Before Duanmu Anguo could carefully analyze the essential differences between coarse grains and white rice, his subordinates said again: "Sir, consider evacuating! This battle cannot be fought, so there is no need for us to pay our lives for a Zong Sui."

Duanmu Anguo was old and didn't hold back and coughed loudly. He wanted to survive, but he really wanted to fight a good battle with Xuan Tianming. He had been hiding for too long, even if he was raising his energy, he could not save a few years at his age. What's more, the comparison between coarse grains and white rice made him suddenly understand that his so-called dormant, his so-called adventure, and the heavenly thunder he had were so vulnerable in front of Dashun.

He was unwilling to accept it, but the facts were in front of him. The sound of the Dashun Army rushing in, and countless people from the Sui Dynasty shouted to capture him, the traitor alive. Duanmu Anguo finally made up his mind and nodded, "Okay! Call everyone else and evacuate!"

There was a safe passage he had specially left out at the east gate of the city that only they knew. Unfortunately, he finally ran to the city gate and remembered that the guards of the East City Gate had changed from his personal soldiers to the Zong Sui soldiers who were originally stationed in Tongcheng. He felt a little chilled, but he still gritted his teeth and shouted at the group of soldiers: "Kaicheng! I am going to leave the city!"
