Chapter 1608

Liaoyang Commandery City.

On the East Gate city wall.

Dozens of soldiers nervously watched the darkness outside the city.

Everyone was extremely nervous.

They did not know the situation in the West City.

But it definitely could not be any better.

Just now, they knew that the West City side had already been attacked.

Now hearing tremors coming from the Chengdong side as well.

They thought that the infected monsters had come from this direction.

This discovery scared them into a state of helplessness.

After all, the Chengdong was not the main battlefield.

There were very, very few people guarding here.

The West City was the main battlefield.

The vast majority of people were fighting in the West City.

But very quickly, someone heard that something was wrong.

Because they heard the sound of hoofbeats.

It did not seem like movement caused by monsters.

But the sky outside was too dark; they could not see clearly at all.

"Those infected monsters wouldn't be coming over, would they?"

"Shouldn't be, right?"

"Aren't those infected monsters all on the West side?"

"They shouldn't be able to circle around."

"Who knows about this? Better to be careful."

"This seems to be... seems to be the sound of hoofbeats!"

"Perhaps... perhaps our reinforcements have arrived!"

"Reinforcements...?"

"This is also possible!!!"

At this moment—

The soldiers on the city wall started to get excited.

If it really was reinforcements that arrived at this time.

Then they would be saved.

But if the infected came from this position.

Then they definitely would not be able to resist.

After all, their number was less than a hundred people now.

How could a few dozen people resist so many infected?

Therefore, everyone's thought at this moment was—hope it is people from the Empire.

Otherwise, they would be in danger.

Just as they were waiting anxiously.

Countless cavalry finally rushed out of the darkness.

Countless cavalry broke through the darkness and appeared outside the empty city wall.

There were still bonfires they had lit outside the city wall.

Therefore, they could see clearly that the arrivals were the Empire's great army.

The soldiers on the city wall saw this scene and wept with joy.

Their mood at this time was very excited.

After all, with the Empire's great army appearing, they were saved.

No news was more heartening than this.

"Heavens, it really is the Empire's great army reinforcements that have arrived!"

"Heaven bless my Great Qin! Heaven bless my Liaoyang Commandery City!"

"Great, this time we don't have to die."

"And we don't have to flee, we can even counterattack!"

The soldiers on the city wall were excited to the point of madness.

Everyone's eye sockets were slightly moist, and some even hugged each other in excitement.

Completely disregarding the image of soldiers.

Ying Ying Zi Ye and the others arrived below the city wall.

Seeing this situation, they were a bit confused for a moment.

What were these soldiers doing?

This appearance was even more excited than seeing their own old fathers.

"Your Highness, these soldiers are not quite normal."

Wang Li muttered in a low voice from the side.

"Hmm, I can feel it."

"It is a bit abnormal."

"There are too few soldiers on this city wall."

Ying Ying Zi Ye also did not know what was wrong with these soldiers for a moment.

But the number of people here was wrong.

Why were there so many fewer soldiers guarding the city?

They wouldn't have all been slacking off, would they?

If that were really the case, then they should be taught a good lesson.

But they had been on the road for half a day, and it was time to rest for a while.

If it weren't for being very close to Liaoyang Commandery City, they would have planned to camp for the night.

Now, traveling through the night, the sky had turned dark by the time they arrived here.

"Let them open the city gate first."

"We'll talk about anything else after we enter the city."

Ying Ying Zi Ye also did not know the situation here for the time being.

Now that it was late at night, it was safer to enter the city.

One must know that this place was close to the Great Wall, and those infected with the plague could appear at any time.

Upon hearing this, Wang Li spurred his horse and walked out of the main force.

"Who is the person in charge here?"

"His Highness has arrived, why don't you open the city gate quickly?"

As soon as Wang Li's loud voice came out, the people on the city wall immediately quieted down.

"His Highness has also come?"

"How... how did His Highness also come?"

"Is... is this true?"

A series of exclamations came out.

Many soldiers present had not seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

They did not know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked like at all.

Plus the sky was relatively dark, so it was understandable that they did not recognize His Highness.

Therefore, they did not notice at all that His Highness had already arrived below the city.

"Quick, quick, quick, open the city gate to welcome His Highness!"
