My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 113 Loyal Minister Lie

The brutal and turbulent sounds of shouting, wailing, and fighting gathered under the sky and spread throughout the entire city wall.

As the Longyang soldiers defending the city, all three gates were shaken. A large number of injured soldiers and young men were dragged out of the battle group, and then placed on trucks and stretchers and transported to the wounded camp for treatment.

Most of the soldiers here are unable to continue fighting. Because of the local soldiers, many of them are fellow villagers and even related to each other. A soldier rushed in from outside. He glanced at the injured comrades around him and met a familiar one. Face, will ask: "See my brother!"

Some people didn't know it, and some people knew it. The other party followed the direction the man pointed and found a tent. When he found the man, he burst into tears.

In the stretcher of the tent, a soldier of less than seventeen was lying there dying. The doctor who had been recruited in the city had given up and left.

"Please, save my brother..."

"He lost too much blood. It's too late to send him down. You can talk to him while he still has breath." The doctor sighed, got up and left to treat other injured people.

"Brother...I feel so much pain..."

The soldier who lost an arm looked at his brother with tears in front of him. He slowly raised his other hand and grabbed his brother's trousers, "Brother... I never understand why the emperor is not good, why should I fight for him... …”

"Don't talk...don't talk..."

The soldier kept pressing his brother's broken arm, but blood continued to flow out. Another voice came in his ear: "Brother... from now on, I will die with my mother..."

The voice then cut off, and the hand holding the trouser leg fell to the ground.

The soldier came out of the wounded barracks with a dull look on his face. His brother's words were still ringing in his mind: The emperor is not good, so why should he fight for him?

Yeah, why?

"He was the one who left the queue without permission and forced his way into the wounded barracks!" Two soldiers rushed over, "Follow us back, we will go up the city wall later!"

They seemed to be supervising the battle team.

The soldier still looked numb and lost in thought. One of the two soldiers pulling him hit him on the shoulder with the handle of a knife.

"Go!"

The soldier was stunned for a moment, feeling the pain. He looked at the two soldiers in front of him, and suddenly cried out "Wow!" He pulled out the knife from his waist and killed one of them. The other turned around and ran away. He chased him. He went up and stabbed the opponent in the back again.

The soldiers walking around and on duty looked over.

The soldier looked at the bloody knife and then at the people around him. He cried and shouted: "Why should we die? The emperor is not good, why should we fight for him! My brother is dead...several villagers They are all dead...we came out together!"

Several people from the supervising team rushed over to capture the crying soldier. Someone knocked him to the ground and then pulled out a knife to execute the soldier on the spot.

Just as he raised the knife, in the corner of his eye, figures walked towards them.

There were wounded soldiers and soldiers carrying stretchers. Their expressions were numb, but their eyes were red. They slowly narrowed the circle around these people...

……

On the city tower, Wang Chengwu closed his eyes and held the Emperor's Sword. Countless sounds of fighting and the collision of gold and iron penetrated the city wall and lingered in his ears.

A deputy general came over and whispered: "The rebels are coming up with the second group."

Only then did Wang Chengwu open his eyes. In his field of vision, in the rebel formation, there was another battalion of soldiers and horses moving towards the right city wall. He glanced at the upper city section and the lower city section. The rebel offensive was indeed stronger than the soldiers and horses in these places. There are too many, and there are fierce generals taking the lead. Over time, they will definitely not be able to hold on.

He was about to issue an order when the soldiers on the side suddenly looked toward the city with a horrified tone.

"Captain, the city is on fire!"

Wang Chengwu finally moved away, walked to the side of the city tower, and looked towards the city. A black dragon was sweeping across the sky, and there were faint sounds of fighting and shouting. There was the wounded soldier camp, and next to it was the reserve camp. He was very worried. It was quickly judged that it was not the rebels who had invaded, but the soldiers in the camp who mutinied.

This is also the most worrying thing.

In a short period of time, it was impossible for him to twist [-] county troops into one rope, and those notes last night must have been taken away and circulated by some literate soldiers or generals. The contents above were fatal to the morale of the army.

"Don't worry about them, they will attack the east city gate!"

Wang Chengwu turned around, with no expression on his face. He stared directly at the rebel army's banner outside the city, as well as the few remaining 2000-man military formation from Bingzhou County and a group of personal guards.

"Follow me down to the tower!"

He called the deputy general and patted him on the shoulder: "I'll leave this to you."

After saying that, he turned around and walked down the stone steps inside the city wall. At this time, hundreds of soldiers at the west gate blocked the gate, and there were crashes outside.Wang Chengwu took one look and asked them to open the city gate, which shocked the two captains guarding the gate.

However, Wang Chengwu was not joking. He tied the Emperor's Sword to his waist, put on the tiger head pocket, jumped on his horse, and picked up the golden spear.

Behind them, figures leading horses gathered one by one. They were dressed in luxurious and majestic armor, with swords on their waists, and they covered the horses next to them with iron armor.These cavalry were all front cavalry brought from his palace. They were originally used for ceremonial purposes only, but during the more than ten years he was on duty, he trained them as cavalry charging into battle.

"In the past, you were so gorgeous in your clothes and armor that you were ridiculed by your colleagues in the imperial city for your embroidered pillows."

Wang Chengwu rode his horse and came to them, unsheathed his sword, "You usually train so they can't see it, but it's different today. We can use our swords, horses and results to shut everyone up and let me rush to kill the rebels." Formation, fight to the death, take down the thief's head, and let the world look at you with admiration!"

shhhhhh...

A sword was pulled out from its scabbard, and these gorgeously armored cavalry rushed forward and quickly formed a formation.Wang Chengwule turned his horse's head and raised his sword to point at the city gate.

"The city gate opens, the cavalry rushes out, wait and then close the door quickly!"

The two captains guarding the gate did not dare to disobey the general's order, so they had to ask the hundreds of soldiers guarding the city gate to lift the door bolt, then hit the door with a hammer outside, and the city gate and the soldiers behind the gate pulled at it. , open directly.

The frontier soldiers who crashed into the gate had no time to rush in and occupy the city gate. They heard the rumble of horse hooves and spread directly from the city gate. First, a war horse leaped out of the shadow between the city gates. The knight above made a big shot. The spear thrust out, overturning the oncoming rebels. The moment the horse's hooves hit the ground, it knocked over several figures in front of them and rushed towards the official road.

Immediately afterwards, one cavalry, ten cavalry, a hundred cavalry... the galloping cavalry was like a torrent of gates, knocking over and cutting down the frontier troops at the gate of the city, and followed the general in front.

These cavalrymen had superb riding skills. They were running fast, with an iron shield in one hand and a sword in the other hand, and they nimbly dodged the arrows fired by the rebel archers under the city wall.

"Take the enemy directly!"

Wang Chengwu rode his horse and galloped wildly. With years of tacit understanding, just by hearing the sound of horse hooves, he knew that his [-] cavalrymen had followed. No one fell behind or escaped!

"A battle will determine the world!"

Secret technique. Huchen!His voice roared out, and the cavalry rushing behind him, every person and every horse, seemed to speed up and become full of energy in an instant.

The moment the six hundred cavalry rushed out of the city gate with a huge amount of smoke and dust, they had already been noticed by the scouts. However, within a few miles, Su Chen also noticed this group of cavalry without them having to go back and pass the news.

"Heavy ride!"

Su Chen's eyes darkened. He once knew about the army of the Yan State. He knew that there was a group of heavy cavalry at the beginning of the founding of the country. However, the heavy cavalry had many disadvantages. The only advantage was that it could complete a formation-breaking charge on the plains, but these could be defeated by a large number of troops. Replaced by Yanshan Iron Cavalry.

Unexpectedly, Longyang County actually hid [-] heavy cavalry.

In the military formation, Zhang Liao looked at the heavy cavalry heading straight towards the Chinese army in a straight line, his eyes showing solemnity. He was very clear about heavy cavalry. Back then, there was a heavy cavalry under Cao Gong. The array can easily tear a gap.

At present, he only has two thousand Bingzhou soldiers and no cavalry available. Lu Bu also went to the south gate at this moment and has not returned yet.

"Bingzhou Army, form a formation!"

Zhang Liao rode on horseback and came to one side of the array. After hearing the order, the soldiers of the Bingzhou Army quickly crowded together. The front row set up their shields with a bang, and spears were like a forest, and they stabbed out of the array intensively. ahead.

The sound of horse hooves shook the ground, moving forward like a furious wave, crushing them. Many people's breathing became unsmooth, and their vision was slightly blurred. The vibrating sound of horse hooves turned into a buzzing tinnitus in their ears.

"You guys go up too!"

Su Chen shouted to the surrounding shield warriors, but it was too late. The sound of iron hooves that shook the earth was only a hundred feet away, and [-] heavy cavalry swept towards this direction like a mountain.

"Hold..." Zhang Liao turned around and said softly to the soldiers beside him. Then, he rushed out on horseback with his sword in hand. Facing the mighty cavalry, he raised his yellow dragon hook and sickle. The moment he approached, he shined a light on the leader of the general. , that is, an angry slash.

Bah!
The moment the blade of the blade hit the big gun, Zhang Liao deflected his horse and got out of the range of the heavy cavalry charge. With his backhand, he thrust the knife into the surging cavalry formation, hooking out a heavy cavalryman and dragging him into the air.

The iron cavalry crashed into the Bingzhou Army array with a roar like an angry wave. The high-speed charging horses were clad in iron armor and smashed shields, breaking spears. The human body was shattered by the impact, and bones were shattered inch by inch. It broke, and a large number of Bingzhou Army soldiers in the front row were directly knocked down, and the churning iron hooves kept trampling on the people.

The screams and screams of many people rang out in an instant, and then stopped abruptly. The terrifying momentum and crushing also caused the war horse to fall down during the charge. The leg bones that fell during the fall were cracked, and the horse's back The heavy cavalry was thrown into the air, and then fell heavily into the crowd. Spears passed through the gaps in the armor and were directly nailed to the ground.

Under the terrifying momentum, more than 100 heavy cavalry entered the 2000-man array, while the rest split around the array and continued running wildly, seeming to drain the last bit of strength from the war horses.

"Kill!" Wang Chengwu waved his big gun and pointed at the Chinese army's banner and the weird and huge carriage.

More than 400 heavy cavalry were greeted by halberd warriors holding large shields. The number was still two thousand. They naturally felt timid against the charging heavy cavalry. Their halberds were stuck on the ground, relying on their iron armor and iron shields. The layers are squeezed together.

However, facing Lin Li's halberds, the charging heavy cavalry had no chance of stopping.

Su Chen looked at the heavy cavalry who were only twenty feet away. He took a deep breath, pulled out the 'Xue Jian' and shouted: "Fight!"

"war!"

Two thousand shield and halberd warriors roared together, and then, the next second, the iron cavalry pushed forward!

460 heavy horsemen crashed into the dense infantry array. At this moment, the front rows on both sides were directly killed. The heavy horses pressed the corpses with their remaining strength and rolled in the crowd, and the back rows were even more violent. More heavy cavalry continued to attack, tearing apart the infantry array layer by layer like pile drivers, causing human and horse blood to splash everywhere.

The dead horses and knights fell to the ground and rolled, pushing the knocked down halberds out, leaving a long bloody carpet. Some of the surviving horses and knights tried to get up, but were later caught and dragged over by their halberds. On the ground, dense bloody holes were stabbed out.

At a moment of fighting and chaos, Wang Chengwu, who was charging with the heavy cavalry, shattered the two large shields in front of him with one shot. While approaching the cart, he suddenly stepped on the horse's back and used the momentum of the mount to jump up.

"what--"

His voice roared loudly, and he threw the big gun in his hand. Then he squatted on the ground, pulled out the Emperor's Sword, and waved it left and right. Blood spurted out from the waists of the two shield warriors. The moment they fell, Wang Chengwu kicked his feet. , rushed towards the cart and the rebel leader on the cart!

Su Chen closed his eyes slightly and threw out a token in his hand.

The surrounding messengers drew their swords and rushed forward. At the same time, big guns flew among them.

"Ah!" Chang Sui Wu Zixun shouted in horror while holding the knife.

In his sight, the big gun flew over his head and hit the chariot. A strong wind swept across, and then gold and iron clashed. The golden-patterned big gun flew out of the chariot. Su Chen stood on the spot with a knife, and there were many people around him. A figure appeared, strong and powerful, covered with armor, with a long face and angry eyes, and the corners of his eyes were high. The moment the spear flew away, he returned the sword to its sheath in his hand, stepped forward, drew the bow and nocked an arrow, the string was taut and trembling.

Whoosh!
The arrow pushed away a circle of air waves and shot directly towards the figures of two messengers who knocked over in the distance.Boom!Sparks flew away, and Wang Chengwu immediately stepped back, and the beast-headed mantle on his right shoulder was directly taken away by an arrow.

The sound breaks through the sky!

The arrow came again. He twisted his feet and turned sideways to get out of the way of the flying shadow. At the same time, another arrow shot through his thigh. He lost his balance and stumbled a few steps.

"Ugh..."

Wang Chengwu gritted his teeth and cut off the arrow stuck in the flesh of his leg with a sword. He kicked off his left leg and limped forward. The shield warriors around him stabbed their halberds, but he blocked it with his sword, and then directly hit his right arm with his right arm. After being pierced by an arrow, the Emperor's Sword fell to the ground. Wang Chengwu picked it up with another hand, and stood up unsteadily while holding the sword on the ground.

"Your Majesty...I am incompetent..."

He murmured, looking at Su Chen on the chariot, dragging his right leg in severe pain, and continued to swing the Emperor's Sword forward to split the halberd. The next second, the arrow banged and hit his head. The nail flew away, the air wave swept across, and the hair flew into the air.

"General Xiahou, give him a ride!"

Su Chen looked at Wang Chengwu who was half-kneeling with his sword in hand, and whispered to Xia Houyuan beside him. The latter nocked the arrow very fast. The moment he buckled the bow string, the arrow had already flown out.

The arrow pierced the breastplate and came out directly from Wang Chengwu's back.

……

The sound of fighting in Longyang County behind him continued, the city tower fell in flames, and the soldiers and horses spreading across the city rushed through the stone steps and rushed towards the city gate.

The flames fell, and the black man with a leopard head and eyes raised the head of the general who was guarding the city with a spear, and roared.

Named "Entrapment", eight hundred soldiers killed the defenders at the city gate. Under lion helmets, generals in silver armor and white robes led the way into the city.

Fighting and shouting, serrated knives waving, the plump figure took the lead and rushed to the top of the city, cutting down the fluttering Yan flag with one knife.

Countless figures broke through the north gate, figures in green robes and gold armor rushed onto the street on horseback, and the green dragon waved, causing a dragon roar.

The giant man carrying two corpses stood like a demon on the tower, roaring ferociously towards the city.

The three gates fell and the cavalry poured into the long street.

Longyang fell!
