Chapter 672 Assemble in the Night
The Frozen Fortress is located in the north, with a high altitude, especially in severe wind and snow weather, the air pressure will become lower. When many people first come here, they will feel that every breath is plundering the oxygen content in the blood. , The chest is oppressed and I can't breathe.

The howling wind blows the snow all over the sky, and it hits the face as sharp as a blade. The night before dawn is too dark. Even the torches lit with special fuel on the city wall can barely illuminate the surrounding area for a few meters. If you go further away, the light will melt into the endless night, and you can't see anything in the darkness outside the city wall.

Just as the recruits were chatting with the veterans, a sharp sound suddenly came from behind.

"Hoo--" A certain luminous object rose from the barracks and rushed to the sky. When it reached the peak, it suddenly burst into intense light, illuminating the entire sky, as if another sun appeared in the night sky, making the whole The Frozen Fortress area was bright as day.

The veteran covered his eyes with his hands, and observed the luminous objects in the air through his fingers, feeling a little puzzled.

What is this?I've never seen it before. It seems a bit like Xiao Tianlei used to convey military information, but it's a little different.

Xiao Tianlei will explode directly after rushing into the sky, basically only serving as a one-time transmission signal. Now this thing is lifted into the air and the falling speed is very small, as if it is suspended in the air, and it continues to emit strong light, which is extremely weird .

If this veteran is lucky enough to have contact with "outsider technology", he will know that this is a very common military item in modern warfare-flares.

"Hello" the recruit's voice suddenly sounded, trembling uncontrollably, "That's... what."

The veteran looked back subconsciously. It was late at night, and it was impossible to observe the situation outside the wall from the city wall, but because of the flares, the area around the frozen fortress was as bright as day, and those things that were originally shrouded in darkness were also revealed.

On the outer surface of the frozen fortress, the banner spread to the end of the horizon. The ferocious saber-toothed tiger banner fluttered in the cold wind. Countless tribal warriors stood under the banner. Their eyes were as red as blood, and the enthusiasm was so frightening. His aura leaked out without restraint, his face full of desire to kill.

"Enemy attack." The veteran muttered tremblingly, the cold sweat on his forehead formed into ice crystals in the cold wind, and fell pattering down. He opened his eyes and screamed with all his strength, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!! "

"Enemy attack! Attention everyone! Enemy attack!" The soldiers on the city wall also observed the tribal warriors assembled heavily. There was a lot of noise. One sent to the sky, waking up all the sleepers in the frozen fortress.

However, what is puzzling is that there is a saying in the book of war that soldiers are expensive and fast. It can be said that every second counts when launching a surprise attack like this at night. A second early attack is to compress the reaction time of the city defense troops and strike by surprise.

However, the tribal warriors assembled outside the city wall did not respond at this time, they just silently watched the defenders of the Frozen Fortress issue an order to assemble, without taking any action, as if they were waiting for something.
The soldiers on the city wall quickly entered a fighting state. The recruits were preparing to report the situation with the veterans to the commander. He glanced at the strangely silent tribal fighters from the pass, and asked in great confusion: "What are these barbarians doing? at every turn?"

To be honest, the veteran has never seen such a situation, but these things are obviously not what he wants to consider, so he said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about it so much, do our job well!"

When the two left the city wall and passed the bearing control room of the city gate, the veteran stopped in place suddenly.

The recruit hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

For the defense of any city, the city gate is the most important thing. It is the passage connecting the inside and outside, and it is the life sustenance of the defenders.

If the city gate is secure, the enemy will have to spend a huge price to fight on the wall, and pay double casualties.

If the city gate falls, it will be nothing to the enemy, and no matter how tall the city wall is, it will be useless.

The veteran stared blankly at the gate control room with the gate closed, and muttered in cold sweat: "What's the matter, there should be elite guards here, why didn't anyone see it?"

Only then did the recruits realize that the passage leading to the control room of the city gate was empty, and the guards did not know where they had gone.

The veteran swallowed hard, and said in a deep voice, "Draw out the knife."

The two drew out their sabers and walked cautiously to the control room of the city gate.

The veteran touched the doorknob, tried it lightly, and found that the door was not locked. He exchanged glances with the recruit, and after coordinating his breathing rhythm, he opened the door and rushed in.

The veteran saw a figure in front of him, so he directly put the knife on the opponent's neck, and cursed: "Don't move! Move your head to the ground!"

The veteran thought that some sabotage spies had infiltrated here, but when he saw the opponent's face clearly, he was taken aback: "Lord Ashuma?"

Ashoma looked at the veteran with a smile on his face, pretending to be shocked, and covered his heart and said, "Oh, why are you holding me with a knife?"

Facing the superior officer, the veteran hurriedly put away his knife. He was a little confused for a while, and stammered and asked: "My lord, are you here? Do you know that the barbarians are gathering troops?"

"Of course I know, otherwise what am I doing here?" Ashoma asked humorously, continuing to fiddle with his own affairs.

The veteran subconsciously focused his attention on Ashuma's work at hand, and saw that he was holding some weird squares wrapped with thin red and blue lines, which were sticking to the bearings connecting the city gate one by one.

The veteran asked blankly, "My lord, what are you doing?"

"As you can see." Ashuma said while placing the weird cube, "I'm planning to blow up here."

"Blow up?!" The veteran was shocked, "Why did you do this?!"

The smile on Ashuma's face was the same as always, but there was a dangerous signal in his eyes: "Guess?"

The old soldier's face turned pale immediately, and he shouted at the new soldier: "This Fago dog is a traitor, we must not let him destroy the city gate!"

"You don't know anything about power." As soon as Ashuma finished speaking, the originally thin and powerless office officer suddenly turned into a black shadow, and rushed forward at an astonishing speed at high speed. Two waves of blood.

Before the veterans and recruits could react, the cold sensation from their throats spread to their limbs, and they limp on the ground powerlessly, with blood gushing from the severed carotid artery.

At the last moment of their lives, they saw Ashoma standing in front of them smiling, his hands and fingers covered with blood. He took out an object showing countdown numbers and shook it in front of them.

Ashuma threw the thing on them and walked away quickly.

At the end of the countdown, they only heard a "beep", their vision was shrouded in strong light, and they returned to eternal darkness.
