Datang New Order

Just when he was at a loss, more than a dozen big men in armor raised their shields to protect and command Zhou Zhiyu to hide in the city gate.As soon as Zhou Zhiyu came in, he shouted loudly: "Why don't you kill him?"

Li Chengzhong hurriedly explained the fact that there were enemy arrows on the tower to stop him, Zhou Zhiyu gritted his teeth and said to the people around him: "Whoever wants to go again, just cut off the sling, and the battle will be complete! Luo Guerrilla Outside the city, you can enter the city in a short time. Those who make this achievement will be promoted to another level!"

A figure sprang up from Zhou Zhiyu's side, agreed loudly, and called everyone to go up to grab the suspension bridge together. Li Chengzhong saw that it was Ren Dutou of Bendu.Ren Dutou led the team to rush out, but Li Chengzhong had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow.

The suspension bridge is only ten steps away from the city gate, but these ten steps are extremely difficult to walk.As soon as the seven or eight people rushed out halfway, a few feathered arrows were shot from the top of the city. It was much stronger when it rushed out just now, and if you don't pay attention, you will get in.Obviously, the defenders realized that this was the key point, and they called in experts who were good at bows and arrows.

Forced into a desperate situation, Li Chengzhong also went all out. After all, he was a soldier, and he used the marching tactics he learned in the army before crossing, but he missed the arrow.When Li Chengzhong rushed to the side of the suspension bridge following Ren Du, he found helplessly that the suspension was made of iron.He and Ren Dutou cut one side, skipped and chopped a few times, but it was useless, so they had no choice but to run back into the city gate.

Of the seven or eight people who rushed out, only Li Chengzhong and Ren Dutou were left, and Ren Du still had a feathered arrow stuck in his head and arm.Zhou Zhiyu saw the passage with his own eyes, and knew that the road was blocked, so he could only frown and think hard.At this moment, the battle in the streets of the city entered a fierce stage, and the two sides began to engage in hand-to-hand combat. Wei Bo's army pushed forward along the street. Lu Long's soldiers, under the command of experienced officers, resisted desperately and gradually retreated to the vicinity of the city gate. The miserable cry when the knife hit the arrow.

Zhou Zhiyu saw that he couldn't think about it, so he loudly ordered the nearby people to lead the team along the corridor to the city.

Ren Dutou stopped Zhou Zhiyu and said: "The commander must not take any risks personally, wait for someone to go!"

Zhou Zhiyu also knew that he was the main general in the city, if he died here, the brothers who attacked the city would collapse in an instant, so he patted Ren Dutou on the shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Treasure!"

Ren Dutou smiled and said: "If a certain person breaks here, please command me to take care of my father more in the future and do some filial piety for him." After speaking, he called out to the archers near the city gate to raise the city head upwards, and threw himself The dozen or so people who could fight nearby called together and told everyone to follow behind him, then they went out of the city gate, turned to the corridor and killed him.

Although Beizhou is an important town, it doesn't have a big city with high walls. The wall is only two feet high, and a slanting corridor stretches from the left side of the north gate to the tower, and it takes about twenty steps to go up.It's just that at the moment the city gate is the focus of the defenders' defense. Although there is no one on the corridor, there are countless bows and arrows aimed at this place on the city gate.As soon as Ren Dutou rushed up the corridor, he was greeted with a rain of arrows.

This time Ren Dutou learned how to be good, he had already ordered everyone to carry shields and put them on top of their heads, requiring them to be connected end to end. Even Li Chengzhong got one and put it on top of his head, and behind him was Jiang Miao who was also wearing a shield.The dozen or so people followed extremely closely, and the shields were connected into one piece above their heads, with almost no gaps, so the effect of defending against arrows was naturally very good.Just like this all the way to the end of the corridor, no one was hit by an arrow, seeing that one step forward would be able to climb the city wall.

Ren Dutou yelled loudly, and jumped up, his whole body connected to the shield on top of the first row of defending Weibo army swords and guns. Brother Lu Longjun behind him, together with Li Chengzhong and Jiang Miao, followed the previous instructions. , pushed forward with all his strength, and abruptly pushed Ren Dutou into the crowd of Wei Bo soldiers.

As soon as the soldiers met, Ren Dutou displayed his family's saber technique, turned around and swept around in a circle, forcing the surrounding Wei Bo soldiers back a few steps, allowing the following Lu Longjun brothers to climb up one by one.When Li Chengzhong and Jiang Miao, who were at the back, also boarded the city wall, Ren Dutou led everyone like crazy tigers to the pulley that was holding the sling.

Except for Ren Dutou, Li Chengzhong, and Jiang Miao, the seven or eight people were all personal guards at the commander Zhou Zhiyu's side. They were veterans who followed Zhou Zhiyu to the former camp of the healthy soldiers, and they were very experienced.When such short soldiers started to fight, they lined up the shield formation, and followed the way of guarding the main general's charge in the past, protecting Ren Du's head and rushing forward.Li Chengzhong and Jiang Miao were wrapped in the shield instead.The two simply squeezed to the side of Ren Dutou, one left and one right, struggling to move forward.

The city gate was densely packed with soldiers of Wei Bo's army. Looking around, there were a total of 200 people, all staring at the dozen or so men who were killed by Lu Longjun on the city gate.It would be a lie to say that Li Chengzhong was not afraid, but the matter has come to this point, there is no way out, he can only bite the bullet and rush forward with Ren Du.

A horizontal knife struck at the head, Li Chengzhong raised his shield to hold it, and slashed under the shield with his backhand, as if cutting through leather, he didn't know if he had chopped down his opponent.Before he had time to think about it, he pressed the shield forward, and drew the saber backwards with his right hand, finally pulling out the horizontal saber.Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the opposite side had slashed at the side of Ren Du's head, and he simply jumped over and blocked the knife with his shield. He also fell to the ground, but was pulled up by Ren Dutou.Ren Dutou was really strong, and he grabbed Li Chengzhong's arm, and Li Chengzhong was so painful that tears were about to flow down.

This kind of chaotic battlefield depends entirely on personal bravery, Ren Dutou needless to say, Li Chengzhong and Jiang Miao are also red-eyed, the three of them marched together, and there are countless cuts on their bodies, and there is blood all over their bodies.Seeing that they rushed to the place where the sling was wrapped around the pulley, Wei Bo's soldiers suddenly backed up, leaving an empty field, and a row of soldiers with long spears squeezed out from the crowd, and rushed into Lu Longjun's shield array in disorder.

Two veterans of the Lu Long Army were poked to the ground on the spot, and a corner of the shield protecting Ren Dutou, Li Chengzhong, and Jiang Miao collapsed immediately. Poked, seeing that the shield array was about to be poked open in a few strokes.

Ren Dutou yelled and went to untie the iron rope tied to the pulley. Just halfway through, he was shot in the waist and immediately bled profusely. He slowly sat down beside the pulley, but his eyes were fixed on the pulley. Reluctantly, I reached out to continue grabbing the sling, but there was no strength whatsoever.

Li Chengzhong brandished his knife to block the incoming random guns, looked at Ren Dutou who was lying on the ground, his heart was filled with agitation, grief and indignation, he didn't block a stabbing gun head in a trance, and instinctively moved to the side Turning sideways, the tip of the gun cut through the skirt of his chest, and a small clay pot fell out.He shivered, wondering how he forgot about this thing, yelled to ask Jiang Miao to help him resist for a while, bent down to pick up the clay pot, grabbed the torch stuck by the pulley, and ignited the pottery pot directly regardless of whether it was hot or not. The cotton thread on the can was thrown into the stroke of Wei Bojun in front of him.

A puff of thick smoke filled the city gate immediately, and wherever the smoke went, there was a sound of coughing and panting. Dozens and hundreds of Wei Bo soldiers lay down on the ground, with snot and tears running down their noses, and they didn't even have the strength to stand up.

As soon as Li Chengzhong fired the simple tear gas bombs he made during the day, the effect was surprisingly good!Of course he himself was prepared, he held his breath early, covered his face with the white scarf on his chest to distinguish his identity, and while weeping, he shook the pulley and slowly lowered the suspension bridge.

Ren Dutou was sitting beside him, he didn't even have the strength to cover his wound, he let the blood flow from his ribs, he coughed, he laughed, and watched Li Chengzhong turn the wheel.

After setting up the suspension bridge, it took Li Chengzhong a long time to drag Ren Dutou and Jiang Miao out of the smoke area.At this time, the thick smoke above the city gate also gradually dissipated, and there were groups of Wei Bo soldiers kneeling on the ground, coughing and sneezing.Looking at the side, Jiang Miao gradually improved and was able to speak gradually, but Ren Dutou could not be saved for a long time.

Not long after, Lu Longjun charged up the city wall, armed with swords and guns, chopping melons and vegetables, and knocked down the Wei Bo soldiers who had lost their fighting power on the city wall.Li Chengzhong lay on the edge of the city wall and looked into the city. A large group of soldiers passed through the city gate and entered the city along the street. Their eyes were filled with raging flames, and their ears were filled with the sound of fighting, mixed with the cries of old people, women and children.

Li Cheng shook his head, and quickly asked Jiang Miao to take good care of Ren Dutou, and walked down the city wall along the city gate corridor, and ran into the street.Looking at the chaos in front of him, he only had one thought in his mind, he must stop everyone from killing innocent people indiscriminately!

Turning the corner, an old man's cry for help came from an alley. Li Chengzhong turned in hastily, and saw two soldiers of Lu Long's army with white scarves around their chests slashing at several old men with their knives.Li Chengzhong yelled "Stop", and tried to block the falling knife, but there was no time.He shouted furiously: "How can you kill an old man? How can you kill an old man?"

The two Lu Long soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then said angrily, "They're all my own brothers, don't eat inside and outside! Don't you know how many of our brothers have been killed by these old men and those women?"

Li Cheng said angrily: "How can the old man harm us, it's impossible!..." Just as he was speaking, five people poured into the alley, and they were two old men, two women and a child, each holding sticks and firewood Dao shouted and rushed over.

Seeing that it was an old man with a gray beard hitting him with a stick, Li Chengzhong was at a loss in his mind and froze on the spot, completely forgetting to resist.Fortunately, there were two soldiers of the Lu Long Army beside him, who blocked Li Chengzhong's blow, and then stepped forward and cut the five men to the ground, ignoring Li Chengzhong, and continued to rush into the city.

Li Chengzhong looked at the old, weak, women and children who died in front of him, and it took him a long time to wake up from his daze.Looking at the flames all over the city in front of my eyes, I feel sad for a while.

In March of the second year of Guanghua in the Tang Dynasty, Lu Long's army invaded Beizhou. Due to the fierce resistance of Wei Bo's army and the resistance of the people in the city, it caused heavy losses, so the army slaughtered the city.On the second day, corpses all over the city were thrown into the moat and drifted away with the Qinghe River. The river water was not smooth for three days.
