A hidden arrow shot quickly towards Liu Yueru's heart from not far away.

Xie Jingrui keenly sensed that something was wrong, turned over and quickly pulled the person away.

The arrow passed by Xie Jingrui's shoulder.

Blood oozed out instantly.

She took the hairpin from Liu Yueru's hair.

Aim at the location where the person just now was and shoot towards that person.

"Bang!" A person fell from the tree.

"Not good." Xie Jingrui protected Liu Yueru directly behind him.

He said to his men, "The ghost tribe is here."

"Kill!" A loud voice suddenly came from the bottom of the city wall.

"Kill!" The ghosts shouted with great excitement.

Liu Yueru glanced at the ghosts under the city wall. They were tall and sturdy, with fierce eyes. They started to attack the city wall at an extremely fast speed.

The enemy's arrows shot towards the city wall swiftly.

"Bring up the scarecrow." Xie Jingrui said to his men.

Soon the scarecrows that the soldiers had placed aside stood up.

Those ghosts did not see clearly that the scarecrow wearing clothes was a fake.

Arrows were shot towards the scarecrow.

"Take Miss Liu back quickly." Xie Jingrui brought Liu Yueru to the stairs and hurriedly instructed his subordinates.

"Yue'er, go back and wait for this king."

Xie Jingrui gave some instructions and turned back to the city wall to continue commanding.

"Clang..." The sound of hooks hitting the city wall kept coming from the tower.

Xie Jingrui's expression changed; "Cut the rope."

Xie Wenyu recognized the man who had humiliated him, took the gunpowder and started bombing.

"boom!"

There was a bloody mess under the city wall.

The scarecrows were replaced one after another, each covered with arrows.

He stood up and walked to Xie Wenyu's side, pulling him down; "Third uncle, do you want to die?"

Xie Wenyu pointed at the man below the tower with bloodshot eyes and roared, "All these injuries on my body are caused by him. I must kill him today."

"I promise you that I will catch him, but now you have to listen to me." Xie Jingrui said in a gentle voice.

"Third uncle, the ghosts have no intention of wasting time with us. They plan to break through quickly, so we can't be careless. If we don't defend the tower, the people of the entire Kyoto will become slaves of the ghosts."

Xie Jingrui quickly analyzed the current situation to Xie Wenyu.

"I know. I was impulsive just now." Xie Wenyu put away the fierce look in his eyes.

Xie Jingrui called all the generals together to discuss countermeasures.

Those ghost people attacked fiercely.

Hooks kept being thrown onto the city wall.

Xie Jingrui thought for a moment and said, "Some people will watch and not let any ghosts rush up, and some people will concentrate their bows and arrows and shoot at those people. If I'm not mistaken, they should want to use the corpses to pile up a wall and climb up."

"We can't let those people get too close. We need to concentrate our gunpowder and bombard the direction where there are a lot of people. We can't waste it. This gunpowder is too precious. Li Jiangyan and the others are probably dying soon. Save some for later."

"Some of you will pull the arrows off these scarecrows and leave them for us to use."

"......"

Xie Jingrui gave some instructions to those people, and everyone started to act.

"Ah!" People from all directions rushed towards the city wall.

Xie Jingrui keenly discovered that there were quite a few archers behind them, pointing their bows and arrows at the backs of those people.

He raised his hand and signaled the secret guards to start shooting at the archers behind them.

Many silver needles began to fly in that direction, and the archers behind those people fell to the ground one by one.

"Hold on." The generals put their utmost attention and fought against it.

The drums were deafening.

The battle between the two sides lasted for two hours. Liu Yueru stood under the city wall, listening to the drum sounds coming from several city gates.

I clenched my hands together, my heart suddenly hanging in the air.

Many people came out of the closed gate to check.

As the drumbeat fades away.

Xie Jingrui looked down from the tower and said to Liu Yueru, "Yue'er, we chased them away!"

Liu Yueru lifted her skirt and walked quickly up to the city wall.

The soldiers in the backyard also came forward and carried the wounded soldiers down from the city wall.

Xie Jingrui turned over and went down, holding Liu Yueru's hand and said, "Don't go up there, they are all dead!"

"Those ghosts are too despicable. They actually used the captives from neighboring countries as human cushions. There were so many casualties down there."

"Did they all run away?" Liu Yueru asked puzzledly.

"No, you go back first and wait for me."

After instructing his subordinates to send Liu Yueru away, Xie Jingrui turned around and said to those people, "Open the city gates and chase them!"

Xie Jingrui rode a tall horse and led a group of people to chase after the corpses on the ground.

"Jingrui, be careful." Xie Wenyu's voice came from the city wall.

The arrow flew towards Xie Jingrui.

He dodged it with a leap.

The man hid in the direction of the bushes.

Soon Xie Jingrui caught up and captured the man.

After seeing the man's face, Xie Jingrui's eyes instantly turned bloodshot.

Knock the opponent unconscious directly.

Throw it on the horse's back and carry it back.

"Tap, tap!" The sound of horse hooves came from not far away.

There was a group of people following behind him. They were all members of the ghost clan who had just escaped and were caught.

The leader pretending to be Xie Jingrui got off his horse and saluted to Xie Jingrui, saying, "Your Majesty, most of the people who escaped have been caught up."

"Send him to the Dali Temple." Xie Jingrui said in a very cold voice.

The leader of the ghost tribe looked at Xie Wenyu on the tower and sneered, "Isn't that Xie Wenyu who was captured by us before?"

"What? Is there no one in Kyoto? Can a man like him go to war? In the past, he was often naked and whipped by people in our ghost tribe!" The man spoke lightly about Xie Wenyu's past.

Xie Jingrui's eyes turned cold; "Really? What else?"

Xie Wenyu's body trembled slightly, and he held his head in his hands, unwilling to listen further.

The man's smile deepened when he saw Xie Wenyu like this, and he chuckled; "Of course there is, his delicate skin and tender flesh are very suitable for the man in our tribe, and he is deeply loved by the men of our ghost tribe, and accompanies him every night...hahahaha!"

Xie Jingrui's face was extremely cold. He looked in the direction of Xie Wenyu, but he could no longer see him.

It turned out that he was humiliated like this every day in the enemy country. Xie Jingrui didn't know what willpower he relied on to survive.

"Someone, take off his clothes!" Xie Jingrui said in a very cold voice.

The man realized something and looked at Xie Jingrui in panic. "What do you want to do?"

"It is said that you, the ghost tribe, are brave and good at fighting. I would like to see what is different about you."

After he finished speaking, Xie Jingrui glanced at his subordinates around him.

"You dare! Our people will not let you go!" The man glared at Xie Jingrui with gritted teeth.

He took the sword from his subordinate's waist and swung it quickly at the man.
