Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 715 Death Battle
Compared with the [-] infantry led by Huang Dongqiu, the deputy commander of the Xuanwu Legion, the [-] Xuanwu heavy cavalry led by Zhan Xiongwu faced the most difficult situation and the largest number of enemies on the long street. The army, those cavalrymen of the Great Song Dynasty who had experienced many battles, seemed to be unable to kill them all.

But how can there be an enemy in the world that can't be killed?
The two thousand basalt heavy cavalry are the most powerful fighters selected by the Xiangfu Kingdom. Their will is as strong as the iron armor on their bodies and the straight knives in their hands. They did not panic too much because of the betrayal of their allies and fell into an ambush. There is a belief——as the general said, as long as we kill all the enemies in front of us, then we will naturally be able to get out alive.

More than 40 miles northwest of Linzhou City, on the top of an extremely hidden low mountain, Hu Sanguang took a telescope to see clearly two miles away. After Gao Huaide led [-] cavalry to block the way from Linzhou to Xiangfu Kingdom, he was surprised Not sure, and then recalled some information about Fuzhou Zhejia, Khitan, and Gao Huaide that he had received scattered these days, and suddenly thought of a possibility, his expression changed drastically.

With a scream, Haidongqing, who was lingering above his head, rushed straight down. After Hu Sanguang wrote two sentences with a pencil as fast as possible, he put it into the copper pipe on Haidongqing's feet, and then raised his hand to let him Soar into the sky and fly to Xiazhou.Then he sent eleven more messengers to report to the border between Songxiang and Songxiang where Yang Jiye himself was in charge, Zhanxiongwu in Linzhou, and other Kyushu states in Xiangfu Kingdom except Xiazhou and Lanzhou.

Haidongqing flew extremely fast in the high air with all its strength, rushed back to Xiazhou in three hours, and landed on Ye Chen's shoulder.

Ye Chen took out the information from the copper tube, and after reading the contents of the information, his body shook and his face changed slightly.

"The three major armies of the White Tiger, Qinglong, and Suzaku must be stationed in the states and cannot be moved. The troops of Tuoba Gelu and Li Guangshun must be stationed at the border to deal with the [-] Song army. They cannot be moved lightly. Today, there are only [-] active soldiers. Black cavalry. If the black cavalry moves, Xiazhou will have no soldiers to defend."

Ye Chen frowned tightly, muttered to himself, and shouted: "Come here, tell the left minister, the right minister, Hei Yue, Li Junhao, Bai Canghai, and Lian Jicheng to quickly enter the palace and go to the government affairs hall to discuss matters. Issue a first-level combat readiness order."

Half a minute later, the Hall of Government Affairs.

Han Xizai and Ma Wentao knelt at Ye Chen's feet, one left and one right, hugging Ye Chen's thigh.Han Xizai burst into tears, and said: "Your Majesty is the body of ten thousand gold, the body of the Son of Heaven, so you must not put yourself in danger."

Ma Wentao immediately said: "Your Majesty can let General Black Moon lead [-] black cavalry to Linzhou. Even if I die here, I will never let your majesty personally lead [-] black cavalry to the battlefield."

Seeing that Ye Chen did not change his mind at all, Han Xizai quickly turned his head and said to Bai Canghai, Li Junhao, Hei Yue, and Lian Jicheng who were standing beside him, "Master Bai, Lord Li, General Hei Yue, and Lord Lian, please hurry up and persuade Your Majesty , Your Majesty is not the same now as before, and my auspicious symbol is the safety of the country, so I must never go to the battlefield like before. What's more, I only lead an army of [-]."

Bai Canghai and the five looked at each other, feeling that the Prime Minister on the left and the Prime Minister on the Right were right, and that His Majesty is indeed different from before, so they were about to open their mouths to join the ranks of dissuasion.Unexpectedly, at this moment, Ye Chen lightly patted Han Xizai and Ma Wentao with his right hand, and they remained motionless.

Ye Chen called for two guards, carried the two elders down to rest, and said: "The two elders will wake up in half an hour. I have made up my mind, and I will take 500 black cavalry to the forest. In Xiazhou, Bai Canghai led [-] people from the special function department. Li Junhao, Heiyue, and Lian Jicheng stayed behind in Xiazhou with [-] black cavalry and my dark guard battalion."

Bai Canghai and the others had long been used to obeying Ye Chen, and after a moment of hesitation, they suddenly agreed.

The shrill sound of fighting and the dull crash sounded non-stop on the long street. The Song cavalry and the Linzhou army were like a tide, and they were afraid of being killed by the Xuanwu heavy cavalry. In the wide area where the two streets intersect , a gap appeared.But the other [-] Xuanwu Army infantry suffered heavy losses.

Military Zhanxiong handed over [-] infantry to Huang Dongqiu's command, and he personally led the heavy cavalry to break through. He didn't know how many people he had killed, and the special straight knife weighing two hundred catties in his hand had even cut a gap.At this time, Shen Sheng said: "Continue to charge!"

As long as he rushed out of the long street, Linzhou would no longer be able to organize an effective interception, so he could lead the sons back through the west gate.

He didn't look back, and he also knew that only about half of the [-] heavy cavalry under his command, which had cost a huge sum of money, were left.

No one in the Xiangfu Kingdom would have imagined that the two thousand Xuanwu heavy cavalry that had just been formed would suffer such a heavy blow for the first time in battle.But Zhan Xiongwu was not sad at this time, because he knew that every heavy cavalry under his command had at least killed an enemy several times his own before he died.

Zhan Xiongwu has reached the peak of his external skills, and his weight is also astonishing, so his mount is a hard-earned horse bought from the Western Regions by the Equipment Department of Xiangfu Kingdom at a cost of thousands of dollars.At this time, Zhan Xiongwu lifted the reins, rode forward, and chopped down a Song cavalryman from the sword and arrow to the body, crushing him like a steel monster, passing through the blood rain, Blast forward.

Those who have not experienced it personally cannot imagine what kind of lethality a super-class outer sect master, wearing heavy basalt armor and riding a bloody BMW also wearing iron armor, will have when he fights with all his strength.In fact, if Zhan Xiongwu hadn't been at the front to sprint to open the way, the two thousand Xuanwu heavy cavalry would not be able to charge at all, and thus the horror of the heavy cavalry would not be able to be displayed.

Fighting back the seemingly endless enemies again, Zhan Xiongwu took the time to issue two military orders.

"Send an order to Huang Dongqiu to disperse the infantry and sneak into the houses. They can kill people at will, and they must last until His Majesty sends someone to rescue us."

"The heavy cavalry will fight towards the west gate."

The messenger soldiers beside Zhan Xiongwu immediately began to release a series of special loud arrows.

"We have already been defeated, and the only chance is for His Majesty to send troops to rescue us."

When Zhan Xiongwu said this, he paused for a while, looked at the nearly thousand heavy cavalry behind him and said: "If you can't wait for your Majesty to come to rescue us, then let us kill some more enemies!"

Yang Jiye believed in his younger brother Yang Chongxun, and Ye Chen believed in the information obtained by Yang Jiye and Hu Sanguang, so there was the betrayal and killing in Linzhou City tonight.However, Yang Jiye, who is known for his prudence in battle, asked Zhan Xiongwu to cooperate with Linzhou's operations as required, and did not forget to make his own arrangements.

To be on the safe side, he arranged a back route for the Xuanwu Army that had sneaked into Linzhou City, and that back route was at the relatively inconspicuous west gate.

After giving the last order, Zhan Xiongwu led the Xuanwu heavy cavalry to kill the enemy bravely, and headed desperately towards the west gate.But countless Linzhou army and Song cavalry rushed from the side and the front, and then died. Of course, this process also made the Xuanwu heavy cavalry less and less.

If the Xuanwu heavy cavalry were allowed to rush out of the city gate and enter the wilderness, then the place of death would become a place of life, and it would be very difficult or even more expensive to annihilate the Xuanwu heavy cavalry.

How could Yang Chongxun and Gao Huaide not know this, and naturally they would not allow such a thing to happen, so at the beginning of the war, the gates of the four cities were closed, and the methods were very ruthless, the gates were not closed like in the past , but directly sealed with ten-thousand-jin stones and heavy iron gates. In this way, a lot of civilian labor would be used to reopen the city gates after the war. In this way, even if the Xuanwu Army attacked the city gates, they would not be able to leave the city at all.

The only variable is the west city gate, which is the way Zhan Xiongwu left for the Xuanwu Legion. Naturally, arrangements were made here. Several military masters in the Xuanwu Legion brought more than 500 Zhan Xiongwu's personal soldiers, and they have already controlled it. live here.

These more than 500 people were personally trained by Zhan Xiongwu in the past three years, and all of them are masters of hard skills in the outer sect.

The heavy iron gate was suspended in the air, and the ten-thousand-jin stone was only a few feet away from the tunnel rolling down. The ground at the city gate was full of blood, and the corpses of the Linzhou city defenders lay in a pool of blood.

You can imagine how thrilling and bloody the previous battle was.

The remaining nearly [-] Zhanxiong soldiers stood at the waist of the city wall, looking at the city in the night, listening to the shouts of fighting and the sound of buildings collapsing in the distance, their faces were full of anxiety.

At this time, the Linzhou army in the city was attracted by the Xuanwu heavy cavalry led by Zhan Xiongwu. Even if someone noticed the movement at the west gate, there was no way to mobilize a strong enough army.

But after all, their number is limited, and it is impossible to last forever after all.

They just hope to see the figure of the general leading the brothers rushing as soon as possible.

The sound of hooves gradually increased.

Surprised expressions appeared on the faces of the two hundred or so Xuanwu warriors.

However, after a while, the surprise on their faces turned into anger and disappointment.

What came was a group of Song cavalry.

The one who led the [-] large Song cavalry into Linzhou City was Gao Huaide's commander, Lu Long, who had rich experience in the battlefield. He quickly judged that there was a problem with the west gate from the direction Zhan Xiongwu led the Xuanwu heavy cavalry to break through. , and then sent a thousand cavalry to come here.

After the thousand Song riders arrived, they began to charge under the leadership of a commander.

After dozens of breaths, all the two hundred soldiers of the Xuanwu Legion were killed, and there were more than 600 of the thousand Song cavalry left.

Then, only a loud bang was heard.

A thousand catties of stone fell.

The iron gate hit the ground heavily.

"The west city gate has fallen."

Hearing the warning arrow coming from the west, Zhan Xiongwu's face was ashen, and the face of the seven hundred Xuanwu heavy cavalry still alive behind him finally showed the color of despair for the first time under the iron mask.
