So I play chess

Chapter 5
Since the Huaiyang army besieged the city and harassed it with crossbow arrows every day, and some people were shot by the arrows, there were very few pedestrians on the streets.

Thousands of people walk through it, like passing through a deserted city.

Today Shen Jing called for battle, and after all the generals discussed the affairs in the Tea Lao, the news that the Liangzhou Army was preparing to fight to the death spread in the city.Some people had the courage to find a temporary camp in the city. There were food deliverers, and those who brought their own iron tools to go into battle with the Liangzhou army, everywhere.Among them are even those who practice martial arts.

Relatives and friends died under Beiyu's iron hooves, not only the Liangzhou army, but also the people of Liangzhou.

The commanders tried to persuade them back wave after wave, and the city gradually became lively.Until Wen Gu specially sent a team of cavalry to inform all the squares and alleys that the battle was imminent, and asked the people to seal the door and guard at home, so as to prevent the enemy from noticing the changes in the city.That's it.

What Wen Gu was worried about was that in this battle, it would be nothing more than victory. Once defeated, despite Shen Jing's personal promise, after the Huaiyang army entered the city, the people would be less worried about their lives if they stayed at home than on the street.

Unavoidably, there was chaos in the city before the battle, and Wen Gu's plan of falsely escaping was not publicized by the Liangzhou army, and everyone in the city thought that the eldest lady went to battle in person.I don't know what it will be useful for, but it is admirable after all.

There are two human worlds inside and outside the city, and they are not afraid of news leaking.

Wen Gu's hand holding the rein was already soaked in sweat, she tried her best to straighten her back so that no one else could see the clue.

How can you not be afraid when life and death are at stake.

Wen Gu remembers marching with his father to a mountain when he was young. There was only one plank road above Wanren. Wen Gu was afraid of heights.Until she found that her brother Wen Xin beside her seemed to be more scared than her. She was small and wanted to reach out to grab her sister's clothes with her mouth puckered, but she didn't dare.

The fear in Wen Gu's heart dissipated in an instant, she stretched out her hand to hold her younger brother, and the two moved forward side by side.

In front of those who need their own protection, no fear can defeat them.

Now it is the whole city and its people who need to be protected.

There was a creaking sound from a residential house on the side of the street, the door opened from the inside, and the orange light of the oil lamp came out of the door. A little girl poked her head out, and her young parents stood behind her, silently watching a group of people coming.

When Wen Gu, who was at the front of the line, passed by, the girl's father cupped his hands and bowed deeply.

Then, more and more doors were opened.More and more people came to the door, went to the window, and silently watched the procession.

Every step, everyone saluted.

The people of Liangzhou, come and send their soldiers to the battle!

The cold wind suddenly picked up, blowing the corners of Wen Gu's eyes sorely.

Wen Gu raised the reins and urged the horse forward, and the last bit of fear in her heart was blown away.

Liangzhou is like this.The abyss of thousands of feet is also a smooth road.

When Wen Gu arrived at the south gate, Zhixia was already waiting here.

"Miss, the arrangements for Uncle Wen have been made." Zhixia put on a strong outfit and rode on the horse. Her long hair was tied up with a pink headband, looking quite heroic.

Wen Gu nodded: "Let's go."

"Yes, miss." Zhi Xia responded with a smile, and then greeted the soldiers loudly: "Open the city gate!"

The soldiers guarding the city opened the city gate, and the shouts of killing suddenly came from behind Wen Gu.The cavalry on both sides charged out towards the city gate.Wen Gu took a deep breath, gave a drink, and galloped out of the city.

Zhou Tong went out of the city to form an array before her, and Wen Gu wanted to be a suspicious soldier for them.

Outside the city gate, the Huaiyang army had already made preparations for the battle. Seeing Wen Gu and the others rushing out, they immediately encircled and killed them on the spot.

A thousand Liangzhou soldiers guarded Wen Gu in the formation, charging from left to right, posing as if they were swearing to break through the siege. Although the Huaiyang army outside the south gate was ten times larger than them, they did not take advantage of it for a while.

And Wen Gu was dressed in white, which was particularly conspicuous in the silver and black armor formation.

Someone in the Huaiyang Army soon recognized her: "It's Wen Gu!"

"Miss Wen wants to escape!"

"Catch her alive!"

"Go and report to General Shen!"

The sound of shouting and killing was close to my ears, warming up and urging the horse, just going forward blindly.

The scouts of the Huaiyang Army rushed out from the formation, running east and west to both sides.

They wanted to send a message to Shen Jing. In this case, the east and west sides would not all support the North City Gate, and Zhou Tong's pressure would be less.

Her life is the credit of the Huaiyang Army, their future, and a trap prepared for them.

The offensive became fiercer, and nearly half of the thousand Liangzhou soldiers were dead. To the shock of the Huaiyang army, the Liangzhou soldiers who were cut off and seriously injured did not lose their fighting spirit. Consciousness has to delay them even for a breath.

The Liangzhou army outside the south city gate was killed but not injured.

The remaining hundreds of Liangzhou soldiers were as powerful as the Huaiyang Army which was ten times larger than them.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion behind the Huaiyang army, and some of them turned around and killed behind them.

From a distance, Wen Gu saw dozens of figures tumbling up and down in the Huaiyang army formation that was burning with flames.

It's Wenliang!
As soon as it got dark, Wen Liang quietly sneaked out of the city with dozens of hidden guards in the city, and lay in ambush here.

The dark guards of Liangzhou are all dead soldiers trained since childhood, and they are very accessible in stature and footsteps. They tossed and moved in the formation, disturbing the Huaiyang army's formation, and their offensive was also stagnant.

The Liangzhou army around Wen Gu was even stronger, and there was even a moment of stalemate between the two sides.

Under such a situation, Wen Liang still did not listen to his own arrangement after all.

If Wenliang is like this, Wen Gu must not be disappointed.

"Breakthrough!"

Wen Gu gave an order, and the Liangzhou army shouted to kill, and made a way in the direction of the hidden guard.

However, the sound of killing did not only come from the side, but also came from the city gate farther behind.

Wen Gu looked back, the gate of the city was opened at some point, the Yin-armored Huaiyang Army rushed out of the gate, Shen Jing held a gun in one hand, and took the lead.

Liangzhou City was broken.

Wen Gu felt that his heart had been hit hard.

Shen Jing passed through the city, and the more than [-] Liangzhou troops outside the north city gate and guarding the city were probably all dead.

Seeing the main general break through the city, the morale of the Huaiyang army was greatly boosted.

Wen Gu saw Wen Liang rise violently in the distance, his long sword pierced the neck of a Huaiyang cavalryman, and then several long spears pierced where he fell.Wen Liang didn't get up again.

The turmoil caused by the dark guards gradually subsided, and tens of thousands of Huaiyang troops attacked back and forth, surrounding Wen Gu and others.

The situation is fixed, there is no possibility of a fight.

The rest of the people got off their horses and lined up on the spot.

The few Liangzhou soldiers on the outermost side said to the people behind them to take a step first.Then he charged into battle with a gun and was hacked to death in a short while.

Shen Jing pressed his horse and walked slowly towards Wen Gu.Only then did Wen Gu notice that his right shoulder armor had been broken, his arm was hanging by his side, blood was dripping down his fingers on the ground.

Some Liangzhou soldiers rushed towards him, Shen Jing held a gun in his left hand, pierced through the opponent's body, then pulled out the gun forcefully, and swung his right hand unnaturally following his movements.

The surrounding Huaiyang army approached, and the few hundred remaining Liangzhou soldiers were killed layer by layer.After a while, only Wen Gu and Zhixia were left in the Liangzhou Army.

Zhixia has been protecting Wen Gu's side with her hands, and her body is also splattered with blood.

Shen Jing stepped forward and pointed a gun at Wen Gu.

Life and death have been decided, but Wen Gu is much calmer than expected. Looking at his arm, he said with a smile in his voice, "Is General Shen satisfied with the gift I gave you?"

Shen Jing said with a sullen face: "Six thousand Liangzhou Army, is it worth it or not in exchange for my arm?"
