High harmonic generation in solids provides us compact and coherent UV sources. Our simulations illustrate abnormal harmonic yield dependence on the intensity of driving or pre-excitation pulses. A multielectron interference model is proposed to reveal the mechanism of the extreme nonlinear optical phenomena. We find that the $k$-resolved intraband harmonic demonstrates different symmetry, phase, and amplitude, which can be observed by using a resonant pre-excitation pulse. The position of the interference minimum obtained by solving the semiconductor Bloch equations agrees well with that obtained by our $k$-resolved semiclassical model. This interference model can help us probe the $k$-resloved band structure and optimize the ultrafast electron-hole dynamics for solid harmonic processes.
