Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 275 Liancheng belongs to Dongling
Feng Qingchen saw Dongji Zhenren as he wished, so he turned around and rushed towards Yao Cheng.

The clatter of horse hooves was rapid and clear, breaking the quiet night.

……

lotus city.

The fighting has not stopped.

The beacon fire on the city wall was burning fiercely, affecting nearby houses and residents. Thick smoke continued to rise, covering the top of Liancheng.

The old and mottled city walls were splattered with blood, reflecting the firelight and glowing a bright red, which also stained Bai Mingwei's solemn face.

The first batch of Beiyan soldiers who left the city were all annihilated, and five thousand elite soldiers also joined the Bai family army. Their morale was high, their murderous intent was strong, and they wanted to rush in through the wide-open city gate.

But the opponent's number was obviously much greater than theirs, and the opponent would rather send out their men and horses in teams one by one than let them attack the city.

The Bai family's army failed to kill all the Beiyan soldiers for a while, and the Beiyan soldiers were unable to repel the Bai family's army, and the two sides fought fiercely.

But it was obvious that the Bai army, which had an impeccable formation, had the upper hand and almost unilaterally killed the Beiyan soldiers.

However, despite this, the Beiyan soldiers did not give in at all.

Yu Jiao was still playing the drums. The long beating was too much for her, and her clothes were almost soaked with sweat. However, she still gritted her teeth and beat the drums in an orderly manner to direct the war.

Seeing that she was running out of energy, Liu Yao picked up the drumstick on the side and was about to hit the other big drum.

Bai Xiuying stopped him: "Your Majesty Ninth Prince, do you want to kill all the soldiers? Once the drum beat changes, the formation will be chaotic."

Liu Yao snorted coldly and raised his nose: "Do you think I have been a playboy these years? After listening to it for so long, I have already mastered the melody."

After the words fell, without giving Bai Xiuying any reaction, he hit the drumstick hard on the big drum.

Unexpectedly, the drum sounds of the two people were surprisingly consistent. If the sound was not louder, there would be no difference at all.

When Yu Jiao saw this, she slowly lowered her hands, and the drumstick crashed to the ground.

At this moment, she was so tired that she lost consciousness, and even her vision was blurred.

Bai Xiuying quickly caught her shaky figure and gently squeezed her arms that were so tired that they were almost unconscious.

At this time, Bai Mingwei happened to fly over a person and stabbed the sword into the person's head.

With a quick glance, she saw Liu Yao playing the drums, and she quickly shouted to Jiang Ci, who was fighting in the crowd: "General Cui, be careful behind you!"

Jiang Ci got the signal and deliberately relaxed his defense line. Several Beiyan soldiers immediately ran out of the attack range of the formation.

However, after these soldiers left the battlefield, they quickly ran in the direction of Liu Yao and the others.

They are agile and extremely fast.

When Jiang Ci saw this, he immediately rode after him.

Bai Mingwei killed another person and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, it's time to take Liancheng! Let's keep charging forward!"

Not long after, several people were approaching Liu Yao who was playing drums.

When several Beiyan soldiers approached Yu Jiao and others, Jiang Ci stopped in front of them and started fighting with them.

Jiang Ci's martial arts was not outstanding. Bai Xiuying was afraid that others would see the clues, so she immediately shouted: "Kill the Beiyan traitor!"

Several people were about to rush forward.

At this moment, one of them held a crossbow and pointed it at Jiang Ci to trigger the mechanism.

Bai Xiuying reminded loudly: "General Cui, be careful!"

When Liu Yao heard Bai Xiuying's shout, he looked back subconsciously and saw the general on horseback falling heavily to the ground and motionless.

The horses raised their hooves and neighed, galloping into the night.

Bai Xiuying witnessed the entire process, and throughout the process, she only felt a gust of wind blowing by. When she blinked again, the person lying on the ground had become Cui Zhihui.

That was Cui Zhihui, she knew it.

Because when the fifth sister-in-law was first brought back, she was so angry that she wanted to whip the corpse. She could not forget the look of her enemy.

She knew that this was the eldest sister's method. No matter who it was, Cui Zhihui was thrown out in an instant and Jiang Ci, who was about to be hit by an arrow, was taken away.

But this light skill was beyond her reach.

The surprise lasted only for a moment. Bai Xiuying shouted in a low voice: "Your Highness, please continue playing the drums! The drums cannot stop, we are responsible for other things!" Liu Yao ignored the situation and continued to wave the drumstick in his hand.

Bai Xiuying quickly walked to Cui Zhihui, reached out to explore his neck, and said with great sadness: "General Cui died for the country!"

This scene was not only witnessed by her and Yu Jiao, but also by everyone nearby.

These people include cronies of the Bai family and Cui Zhihui's subordinates.

In this way, under the witness of everyone, Cui Zhihui was plotted by the Beiyan people and "sacrificed with honor."

Bai Xiuying took off her cloak and gently covered Cui Zhihui's remains, then drew out the sword from her waist and said angrily: "Kill them and avenge General Cui!"

No one doubted Cui Zhihui's death. Dominated by anger, they quickly attacked the attacking Beiyan soldiers.

After the Beiyan soldiers were killed, Cui Zhihui's subordinates wanted to rush to the top.

Yu Jiao, who had calmed down, glanced at him, picked up the drumstick and continued to beat: "Your Highness, Ninth Prince, I am here to play the drum. Please step back, so as not to become the target of the enemy again."

Liu Yao's eyes were full of anger and anger: "I will not leave, but I am willing to advance and retreat with the soldiers and kill these bastards!"

He has seen a lot of corpses, and it doesn't matter to him even if he walks through a sea of ​​blood. After all, what does the death of others have to do with him?

He just wants to enjoy happiness!
But in this case, the general who killed the enemy with majesty a moment ago died so close to him.

This made him feel as if he had been bitten by some cruel little beast, and he suddenly aroused nameless anger.

The previous cold-shouldered look on the sidelines no longer existed. He was on the battlefield and his heart was also on the battlefield.

So he hates such sacrifices!
I hate fighting like this even more!

Thinking of this, not only did he not stop, but he beat the drum louder.

The deep hatred and uncontrollable anger were all mixed into the sound of the drums.

Listening to the sound of such drums, the anger in the hearts of the soldiers became more intense, and their attacks became more ruthless.

Bai Xiuying shouted: "Protect the remains of His Highness and the General!"

When the man who had walked to Cui Zhihui heard this, he did not lie down next to the general and cry bitterly. Instead, he clenched his sword like a warrior and stood guard next to the bodies of Yu Jiao and Cui Zhihui.

His eyes were red, with tears in his eyes, and his whole body was filled with fear.

The anger and pain of dying on the summit were clearly displayed in his eyes.

However, at this moment, he still did not forget his duty as a warrior, using his body and sword to firmly guard the people he was supposed to protect.

It can be seen that no matter how miserable Cui Zhihui is, as a fifth-grade general, he manages the army with due diligence.

It can be easily seen from his well-trained soldiers and his deputies.

However, no matter what, from the moment he was involved in the struggle, this outcome was already destined.

He has committed a heinous crime!
It's a shame that he chose family between country and family, was willing to become someone else's pawn, and pointed his sword at his companions without hesitation.

To be fair, both choices are difficult.

He chose to help the tiger, maybe he just wanted to be a good husband and father.

But this does not mean that he has the right to harm more people. For the sake of his wife and children, he risked the lives of tens of thousands of people. This ending was too cheap for him.

What's more damning, there are those who forced him.

At this time, the war was coming to an end.

Bodies piled up at the city gate, blood gathered into a sea and soaked the land red.

More than tens of thousands of Beiyan people had been killed by the Bai army, and they were almost completely defeated.

The chief officer of the city wall saw that no one who rushed out was alive, and was about to order the city gate to be closed.

But before he could say anything, Bai Mingwei, who had jumped up onto the city wall, pierced his heart with a sword.

Bai Mingwei pulled out his sword and wiped the blood from his face.

She pulled up the Beiyan military flag hanging on the wall, threw it to the ground, pointed the tip of the sword straight at the sky, and shouted with grief and anger: "Liancheng belongs to Dongling!"
