My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 388 Emperor Xia, do you dare to fight me?

"What, Xiang Yu and Zhao Yun went to the city wall?"

After the heavy rain stopped, Su Chen was sitting on a chair looking at the 'ocean'-like water in the nearby mountains. When he heard the words reported by Wu Zixun behind him, he was stunned for a moment.

He looked at the few bodies floating on the water from time to time, and then raised his head, with surprise in his eyes: "Liang Guo's city defense is so weak?"

Dong Zhuo on the side smacked his lips and punched the air.

"Let You Yanjun get an advantage."

Su Chen did not expect that this flash flood and the river water after the embankment burst would cause such a terrible disaster, but now, it was the best time to attack the capital of Daliang, how could he let it go.

"Wu Zixun immediately sent me an order to build another batch of boats. Hurry!" He raised his hand and clenched his fist casually.

"Regardless of whether the road is clear or not, send people to the north to look for traces of the West Route Army, and to the northeast, contact the rebels in Anlu Mountain and ask them to launch an attack on Xidu from the mountains over there!"

After giving several orders in succession, Su Chen stood up from his chair and walked back and forth excitedly. He had not been so excited for a long time.

"Grand Master, let the Xiliang army build boats later, and send Xiliang soldiers to participate in the siege!"

Su Chen looked at the mighty flowing water in the distance. There used to be the wilderness south of the Western Capital of Liang Kingdom. Farther away, there was the towering city wall, but it was not very clear here.

"Haha, I'll be the one to attack the city!"

Dong Zhuo grinned, which was already ferocious. His smile could make a child cry. He immediately turned and left, calling Li Jue to send his soldiers to cut down trees in the mountains and let the craftsmen in the mountainside camp build boats.

At this time, on the distant water, water waves hit the city wall. More than 300 small boats were sailing towards the city wall. Each boat could hold five soldiers, and nearly 1,600 people had already begun to climb up the city wall to follow. Zhao Yun and Zhang Yi rushed towards the city gate.

On the other side of the city tower, dozens of people flew in the air one after another. Some fell into the flood water outside the city wall, and some fell heavily off the inner city wall and fell into calf-deep water.

The head of the guard on the city wall here was lifted by Xiang Yu in his hand, and then he was thrown out and hit a large shield erected in front of him. Both the man and the shield were knocked over.

Behind him, Zhao Yun and Zhang Yi came over with the Youyan army who had climbed onto the city wall.

The war drums on the city tower were beating wildly, and the soldiers on the city wall were still moving towards reinforcements. However, generals such as Xiang Yu and Zhao Yun were the vanguard, and the soldiers who rushed forward were quickly killed by the two men.

There was the sound of gold and iron clashing with swords, the screams of people, and corpses falling from the top of the city like dumplings.

In the chaos over there, some Liang defenders couldn't stand the oppressive massacre. They turned around and ran away from the battle group. They rushed down the tower and ran wildly down the long street with their hair spread loose. Half of their bodies were stained with blood, and they kept shouting around. .

"Run away quickly, the Xia army occupied the city wall and came in——"

"The Xia people are coming to kill"

The shouting soldier walked through the streets. His shouts caused the people in the city who were watching to instantly become confused. There were running figures everywhere. Some also rushed into the house and closed the doors and windows tightly. They took their children and hid under the bed or in the closet. trembling.

There were also generals who came for reinforcements from other directions and rushed to the south gate with their troops and horses. When they heard the fleeing soldiers shouting like madmen, they immediately drew their bows and shot them to the ground.

"Reinforce the city!"

The general shouted loudly, and the sound of footsteps spread across the street. The soldiers and more than a thousand soldiers under his command also ran wildly with him. However, before they could catch up with the crowd fighting over there, the defenders on the city had already retreated. Stone steps leading to the inner city wall.

There is also a tall figure standing on the balcony on the second floor of the tower, holding a bronze bell with one hand.

Xiang Yu looked at the street in the distance and snorted coldly.

Then, the huge bronze bell flew out of the tower and towards the street. The general Liang who was riding on horseback was instantly detained in the bell.

More than a thousand soldiers and horses stopped their advance, stared at the big bell in front of them in stunned silence, and then surrounded the bell and shouted to the generals inside.

Countless chaotic shouts, screams of fighting, and the sound of clashing weapons filled the city tower. The soldiers of the Youyan Army who were fighting down, with the will to destroy the country, rushed down the stone steps of the inner city wall, and the surrounding streets spread. Outside the city, a dozen small boats were built in an hour. Dong Zhuo stood at the bow of the boat with a serrated knife, and the stern of the boat was slightly tilted at this time.

"Haha! Liangguo Palace, I will be here soon!"

In the Jinluan Palace, listening to the constant battle reports, Tuoba Kui sat on the dragon chair, his body trembling slightly, not from fear, but from anger.

The civil and military officials in the hall were silent at first, and then Ye Ci Nongbie walked out. He pulled out the sword at his waist, "I will live and die with the Liang Kingdom!"

"I and I will coexist with Daliang!"

Everyone in the palace was civil and military. They worked with the young emperor to govern the country and reform the country. If it were not for the Xia Kingdom, they might have completed the first step in revitalizing the Liang Kingdom.

"Your Majesty! Let me and other ministers fight for your Majesty!"

The tribal leaders came out, the military generals came out, and the civil servants also came out. They all clenched their fists at Tuoba Kui and pressed their shoulders, bowed down, and shouted in unison:

"The last battle for His Majesty!"

Tuoba Kui shed tears, then wiped them away. He stood up and said, "The king and his ministers are together. If there is an afterlife, I will gather with you all again!"

……

In the Liang Palace, Queen Mother Zhao Xifeng was walking in various halls of the harem with more than a hundred guards. She had received news from the outside early and knew that the situation was over. As the Queen Mother, she had to do the last thing.

The eunuch who followed behind her was holding a wooden tray with things wrapped in red satin on it. She entered a small hall. The guards set up the concubine here, and the eunuch took out a pill from the small bag and stuffed it into it. The concubine's mouth, let the other party take it.

Looking at the concubine who was convulsing and falling to the ground, Zhao Xifeng turned around and left on crutches, and finally came to the queen's bedroom. After receiving the news, the queen knelt in front of the door, knowing what was coming, and took the hand from the eunuch with a smile. of pills.

"Thank you mother."

The queen was fully dressed, took the pill with a smile, and lay peacefully on the bed.

Soon after, Queen Mother Zhao Xifeng returned to her residence, raised her hand and waved away the eunuchs and maids who had been waiting for her for half her life. She sat in front of the bronze mirror to dress up, straightened her phoenix robe, sat back on the bed, took the medicine and prepared it in her hands. The elixir also lay down.

Daliang is dead, and I am really ashamed that I failed to protect the late emperor's inheritance. I don't know how to see him when I get down there.

She thought about this and slowly closed her eyes, then there was no movement.

……

In the imperial city, there was already a boiling fight.

Arrows flew through the sunlight, rockets landed on the city tower, and soldiers on fire fell from the towering city wall with screams.

The fire ignited the city tower, and Youyan soldiers climbed up the city wall. Dozens of Xiliang soldiers led by Dong Zhuo joined in the attack on the imperial city. Far behind them, Su Chen took a boat and led Youyan and Xiliang soldiers on two hundred boats. Liang soldiers climbed up the city wall and entered the city.

When Su Chen led everyone to arrive, the imperial city was destroyed, and Xiang Yu stood on the top of the city covered in blood, throwing the flag of Liang State down from the simple and majestic tower.

Dong Zhuo, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Yi led their troops into the palace. Under their feet were the corpses of civil and military officials of the court, as well as the corpses of the palace guards. The veteran Ye Ci rushed towards him with disheveled hair, and was hacked to death by Grand Master Dong Zhuo.

When Su Chen came over accompanied by the generals, Tuoba Kui and his relatives gathered in front of the hall and made preparations for a fight.

This was the first and last time the two met.

"Emperor of Xia Kingdom!"

Tuoba Kui rode a royal horse out of the crowd. He was tall and sitting on the horse, he raised his big gun and pointed it at Su Chen, who was also riding a horse over there.

"You dare to fight with me!"

In front of all the soldiers, he issued a letter of challenge to Su Chen!
