Chapter 862 Hope

"How long has this been going on?"

He Ji frowned and asked.

The scout hurriedly said: "It's been a while, almost half an hour."

"It wasn't obvious at first, but they were obviously mobilizing troops, otherwise there wouldn't be fewer and fewer people."

He Ji nodded, agreeing with his subordinate's analysis.

So the question now is, why are they mobilizing troops at this time?

Frowning and thinking, He Ji's eyes fell on the gate of Tianhong City.

Could it be that they want to take advantage of this opportunity...

He Ji's face hardened, this is not impossible!

Naturally, he knew very well what kind of life the Xuanjia elite lived in Mohe Province.

Now that General Huang is away, and someone from the Qingyang Empire has entered Tianhong City, Bao Qi, in addition to the Qingyang army clearly visible outside, there are other troops on the periphery responsible for supporting them.

Then it is very possible that they choose to take advantage of this opportunity to escape.

Coupled with Feng Lei's inexplicable report out of the city, He Ji was extremely convinced at this moment that the Xuanjia elite were probably having this idea!

"Quick, follow me!"

Thinking of this, He Ji's whole body became nervous.

He was also quite quick-witted. Although he was frightened, he was calm. He greeted his men, but then paused and said anxiously: "Forget it, just keep an eye on it here and report to me immediately if there is any situation!"

At this moment, he was as tall as a cat and disappeared from the same place very quickly.

Not long after, a loud arrow suddenly shot straight into the sky from outside the cave where He Ji was hiding.

"This is……"

The scouts who stayed behind were shocked when they saw it.

He knew the meaning of this sounding arrow very well, but it was calling all the scout troops scattered outside Tianhong City!

Gathering of sounding arrows?

At this moment, he was not the only one who was surprised, but all the scouts who heard the sound of the arrow rising into the sky.

What surprised them even more was that the lingering sound of the first sounding arrow was still there, and then, the second sounding arrow soared into the sky.

This sounding arrow...has nothing to do with most of them.

The function of this sounding arrow is to tell the scout team staying on the outside to quickly go back and report to Huang Ren the news that there seems to be a drastic change in Tianhong City.

What happened to Tianhong City?

This was a question that many scouts had in mind, and at this moment, just as He Ji hoped, they rushed out of their hiding place and quickly gathered at He Ji's location.

As for He Ji...

He was looking up at the sky at the moment, his ugly face showing how worried he was at the moment.

Fortunately, his wait was quickly answered.

Not long after the second sounding arrow took off, there were also sounding arrows rising in two directions away from Tianhong City, echoing the sounding arrows he fired.

He Ji then breathed a sigh of relief.

The secret sentry on the periphery is still there, which means that the Qingyang Empire has not arrived nearby yet, so they still have a chance!

After receiving the response, he quickly greeted the other people in the cave and hurried to the assembly point.

at the same time.

"Sir...sir, we have followed your instructions, and...please, please keep your promise!"

The man lying on the ground with his trembling body was the scout who was highly valued by He Discipline Inspection Commission.

Beside him, Meng Yang stared at him coldly and said angrily: "Stop talking nonsense, I always mean what I say. I don't need you to remind me!"

He Ji never expected it. He thought his reaction was very fast, but it was still a step too late. The scouts and secret posts on the periphery had already been cleared away by Meng Yang and Guo Zi's team.

During this process, Chen Ze also held back a hand, asking Meng Yang and others to leave one or two alive for later use.

The result was indeed as expected by Chen Ze. These scout teams had a special way of transmitting messages.

The sound of the arrow fired by He Ji reached the outpost. Meng Yang and Guo Zi separately questioned the enemy scouts they had captured. The information they obtained was then summarized and sent to Chen Ze.

The answers given by the scouts on both sides about the sound of the arrow were very consistent. So this also proves that what they said is the truth.

Then Chen Zecai asked Meng Yang and Guo Ziyan to order the two men to shoot the sounding arrows as well to signal that he had received it and would follow He Ji's instructions to quickly go back and contact General Huang Renhuang.

What about He Ji? The order for everyone to assemble has been given? He is also running frantically towards the gathering place.

At this moment, he couldn't care about anything else.

After all, the gate of Tianhong City has not been opened yet, but the elite Xuanjia have not rushed out from the gate? If they are to gather now? It seems to be a little early.

But He Ji couldn't care less.

If he waits until the opponent's city gate is wide open and then issues the order to assemble, it will obviously be too late.

As far as the two sides were facing each other head-on, the troops he had on hand were far behind the opponent in terms of combat strength, let alone waiting until the opponent left the city before he hastily assembled his troops.

Then there will be no need to fight.

It was the lesser of two powers to harm each other. At this moment, he would rather have a few people run out of Tianhong City than let Xuanjia's elite troops swagger out of the city.

Now he can only prevent one side, and this side has to be fought with his life!

I just hope General Huang will come sooner!

While running fast, He Ji lamented in his heart.

The Xuanjia elite who originally thought they would never leave Tianhong City turned out to be far beyond their expectations. Now they had no choice but to fight to the death.

We can't beat them, we can only delay. Now we have to see whether General Huang's troops will arrive first, or the remaining scouts like them will be killed first.

Hope...it's the former.

He Ji sighed inwardly. Compared to this, at the moment, he actually hoped that his judgment was wrong or that he fell into Yan Xukai's trick.

The abnormality at the top of Tianhong City, I hope he is just overthinking, or maybe Yan Xukai is secretly crossing Chencang, trying to take advantage of the time when his scouts are gathering to send people out secretly.

However, this time He Ji failed to do so.

Just when he gathered a large number of scouts together, the long-closed city gate of Tianhong City was suddenly opened from the inside.

So what He Ji saw was a well-organized army heading out from the city gate.

Are you really ready to just leave like this?

With anger in his heart, He Ji did not dare to neglect and quickly arranged for his men to rush towards Tianhong City Gate.

Now he had to rush to block the opponent's large army before they could get out of the city gate.

Otherwise, once He Wei sets up his formation in the vast terrain outside the city, he will have no chance!

Being so close, He Ji could even see the neatly dressed He Wei walking in the front with a serious look on his face. His sharp eyes glanced left and right, and finally landed on him.

"General Li, where are you going?"

He Ji opened his mouth and shouted.
