Great Han Empire

Chapter 278 The situation changes suddenly
The enemy saw the danger and rushed to the gate of the courtyard risking his life.Once Yan Liang is reunited with his Black Panther Yi Cong, it will be even more difficult to kill him.

"Surround up, surround up." Wang Fen rushed to the gate of the courtyard and shouted loudly, "Kill Yan Liang, and I will reward you with 100 million yuan."

The enemy went crazy, they were like a group of extremely hungry wolves, clamoring and rushing towards their prey, the fight became more and more fierce.

The saber in Yan Liang's hand was like a bloodthirsty beast, baring its teeth and claws, wantonly nibbling at the life of the enemy, screaming forward.No one was intimidated by Yan Liang's cruelty, and more people rushed to the courtyard gate, fighting with their lives.Yan Liang was blocked by the endless enemies, not only did he not go any further, but was forced to retreat again and again.

The machete was hit again, and he looked at the countless weapons in front of him, burning with anxiety.

"My lord, don't retreat, don't retreat..."

Before the words fell, two more attendants were cut down to the ground, leaving only six people in the small formation.

Yan Liang was in a hurry, he yelled at the black panther servants who were attacking on the other side of the courtyard: "Tannu, shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow..."

The small area near the gate of the courtyard was densely packed with enemies. If the obstacles were not cleared quickly, it would be difficult for Yan Liang and the others to rush over.Tan Nu didn't think about it at all, and turned around and shouted: "Crossbowman, crossbowman, go forward and shoot, shoot..."

The Black Panther Yicong formed a long and narrow defensive formation between the two courtyards. Under the cover of the shield soldiers, the crossbowmen gathered in the middle of the formation and shot and killed the enemies everywhere.Hearing Tan Nu's shout, a dozen or so Yi Cong armed with strong crossbows rushed out of the formation, and they quickly rushed into the gate of the courtyard led by the swordsmen in the front row.

"My lord, look for the meat shield, quickly find the meat shield..." Tan Nu punched the enemy who rushed up, and shouted at Yan Liang who was opposite the gate of the courtyard.

"Machete, come here, everyone come here immediately..." Yan Liang danced with his saber, beheaded seven people in a row while roaring, forcibly cutting a bloody path from the enemy group, and then took three steps forward.The five people who followed him rushed over like flying.

The enemy attacked more violently, and the two servants leaning on the left and right of the machete fell down one after another.

Yan Liang's saber screamed, beheading the powerful enemy head-on.This time he didn't kick the enemy's body away, but grabbed it and held it in front of him.

Tan Nu slashed with his saber obliquely, chopping off the enemy's head fiercely, and at the same time, blood sprayed, splashing his head and face, "Sho... shoot me..."

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

The crossbow arrows flew out in batches, and the enemies fell layer by layer. In an instant, there was no longer an enemy standing in front of the courtyard gate.

"Go, go, go..." Yan Liang suddenly turned around and quickly backed away. He held up the corpse full of crossbow arrows in one hand, and swung the knife in the other, "Machete, go, go..."

"Shoot, shoot, shoot them to death..." Wang Fen opened her eyes wide in horror, and raised her hand angrily, shouting, "Shoot them to death..."

As soon as Wang Fen yelled, the archer who had been staying outside the battle circle immediately shot the long arrow in his hand. For a while, the arrows were like locusts, and there were piercing screams everywhere in the air.

The three scarred attendants jumped up and rushed through the courtyard gate with all their strength.The machete was too badly injured, barely ran two steps, and then tripped over the corpse under his feet.

"My lord, let's go, let's go..." Machete shouted loudly.

"Machete, machete..." Tan Nu yelled hoarsely, ignoring his own safety and rushing forward.

Yan Liang tried his best to throw the dead body in his hand, and with a tiger roar, he rushed through the courtyard gate again.

The long arrow hit.

"Kill..." Yan Liang opened his mouth and shouted wildly, his saber swirled, trying to block the arrow.Tan Nu just made a head start, but was immediately shot back by long arrows all over the sky.

"Machete..." Yan Liang went a step further and extended his left hand forward, "Grab me, hurry up..."

With a roar, the machete tried its best to raise his upper body, and stretched forward with his right hand.Yan Liang grabbed it, and then retreated.

Three long arrows whizzed towards the machete's leg.Under the severe pain of the machete, he let out a terrifying scream.Yan Liang was startled, and in desperation he let out a tiger roar. He pulled the machete up into the air with all his strength, and flung it towards the comrades behind him.

"Go, go quickly..."

Wang Fen watched Yan Liang disappear behind the courtyard gate, and gritted his teeth angrily, "Wrap up, surround me, kill, kill them."

===================

The guarding soldiers on the west city gate suddenly shouted wildly: "The cavalry is coming, the cavalry is coming."

Cao Hanfang, the supervisor under the door, was taken aback and rushed up the tower.On the open field outside the city, an army of cavalry was galloping towards them, and the dust almost covered the distant sky.

"Quick, report to your lord immediately, say that Wen Chou is here, Yan Liang's reinforcements are here, quick, quick..."

"Put away the drawbridge, put away the drawbridge."

"Close the city gate immediately."

Drums of war'

The drums of war were beating loudly, and the sound of the alarm drum resounded over the sky of Yecheng in an instant.

===

The cavalry army lined up in the city of Yecheng, with an aggressive momentum.

Zhao Yun's face was gloomy, and he looked anxiously at the suspension bridge slowly retracting in the distance.

"Zilong, what should we do?" Jiang Wu panted violently and said loudly, "Will Zishan be in danger?"

Zhao Yun looked at the moat in front of the city, then at the tall and strong city wall, and shouted decisively: "Siege the city, attack the city immediately."

"Come here, send an order to the Xiangyu Mountain camp, order Lord Wen Chouwen to lead the army to join up and attack Yecheng immediately."

===

Under Yan Liang's command, the Black Panther Yicong gathered in the second courtyard. Relying on several houses and corridors, they quickly formed a solid defensive formation and resisted to the death.

Although Wang Fen's guards were large in number and good at martial arts, they did not organize an effective attack. Everyone fought on their own and crowded together chaotically. Not only could they not form a huge lethal force, but they were killed by the black panther Yi Cong Not a lot.

The soldiers of the Black Panther Yicong have been on the battlefield for a long time. Even in the face of such an absolute disadvantage, they are full of confidence that they will win. Everyone is calm and no one feels panicked.Personal toughness and skillful tactical coordination make up for the lack of numbers. Although there are enemies everywhere, if you look closely, they are all under siege by Wang Fen's men. A wolf devouring its prey.

Wang Fen personally supervised the battle, blindly ordering his subordinates to attack violently, completely disregarding their lives and deaths.

At this moment, thunderous battle drums sounded in the sky above Yecheng, which was the message of the enemy's attack.

Yan Liang and Hei Bao Yicong immediately cheered loudly, and their morale was greatly boosted.

"Hold on, everyone, reinforcements are coming..."

Wang Fen was horrified, and rushed towards the courtyard gate with a few attendants.

Yan Liang raised his saber high and shouted loudly: "Son Wang Fen, you are rebellious, intending to rebel, your crime cannot be punished, you just wait for death."

Wang Fen looked back at him resentfully, and ordered bitterly: "Kill, kill him for me."

===

"Ziyuan, Ziyuan."

Shouts of panic and anxiety, from far to near.

Xu You was taking a bath, and said with a smile, "Zhongfu, what are you yelling for? Aren't you afraid that others will hear you? If Wang Fen knows that you, the commander of the Northern Army, are hiding here, I will be finished."

"Ziyuan, something is wrong." Wu Kuang called out from outside the house, "Li Hong has returned."

Xu You was enjoying soaking in the hot water happily, when he heard this, his face suddenly changed with fright, he hurriedly climbed out of the bathtub, put on a burqa in a panic, his hair was disheveled, and rushed out with bare feet Back room.

Wu Kuang pushed open the window, and the rapid sound of war drums resounding over the city of Ye immediately reached Xu You's ears clearly.

"Our people saw the battle flags of Zhao Yun, Jiang Wu, and Liu Ming from the west city gate. Something must have happened to Yuan Shu." Wu Kuang said nervously, "The Northern Army's Changshui Camp must have been controlled by Li Hong."

"Don't worry, don't worry, let me think about it." The cold Xu You seemed to have fallen into the ice cellar all of a sudden, shivering non-stop, and his mind was blank.

"Zhao Yun and Jiang Wu are here, which means that Li Hong is still alive." Xu You frowned and muttered to himself, "If Li Hong is alive, something must have happened to Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu was arrested by Li Hong, and Changshuiying also Li Hong controlled him, that's why Liu Ming appeared in Yecheng." Xu You glanced at Wu Kuang and said in horror, "Wang Fen's plot to hijack the emperor has been revealed, otherwise Li Hong would not come back, and neither would Zhao Yun." It will appear in Yecheng, let's go quickly."

Wu Kuang hesitated for a moment and asked, "Where is the Xiangyu Mountain camp? If the Xiangyu Mountain camp is still under control, we..."

"Don't dream." Xu You rushed into the back room and said loudly while putting on his clothes, "Li Hong must be in Xiangyu Mountain at this time. The bitter chieftain and the others have all been killed in all likelihood. The conspiracy has been revealed, and it has been revealed. Yuan Shu You idiot, you can’t even do such a trivial thing, and Li Hong snatched it from the five thousand army, this idiot, you killed us.”

"Ziyuan, now that the city gates are closed, how do we get out?" Wu Kuang closed the window and asked back.

"Zhongfu, do you want me to teach you how to do this little thing? Master He Yonghe asked you to lead people to lurk in Yecheng, just to help you at this critical time." Xu You said in the room, "You leave Luoyang How did Master He arrange it?"

"Lord He has repeatedly told me to obey you." Wu Kuang frowned, and said unhappily, "Hurry up, if Li Hong leads people to attack Ye City, none of us will be able to escape."

"Let's go to the west gate." Xu You ran out disheveled and said, "Let's go, let's go."

"To the west gate?" Wu Kuang asked suspiciously, "Zhao Yun's army is just outside the city, you want to throw yourself into a trap."

Xu You ignored him at all, picked up the long sword and ran out.

"Prepare the horse, prepare the horse, go, go, go..."

===

After hearing the report, Wang Fen felt ashamed and sighed.

"My lord, what should I do?" Tao Gao was at a loss and asked anxiously, "What should I do?"

Wang Fen smiled desolately, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Qiu Hong, go to the study and burn everything that should be burned. Hurry up, it's too late."

"Sir, we..."

"It's up to people to plan things, but it's up to God to make things happen." Wang Fen smiled sadly and said, "It's really too difficult to kill traitors and revive big men. I can't do it."

"My lord, Master Xiangkai watched the sky at night and said that traitors will be punished, but now..." Tao Gao said dejectedly, "How did things become like this? Did we do something wrong? What is it all about?" Celestial phenomena?"

"Maybe the sky has changed again." Wang Fen lamented, "Li Hong, if Li Hong doesn't come to Jizhou, we might succeed."

"Li Hong." Tao Gao gritted his teeth and cursed, "That bloodthirsty leopard is going to kill again..."

===

When Han Fang saw Xu You, he screamed as if seeing a savior.

"Master Xu, Master Xu, what should we do now? They are about to attack the city."

"Do we have defensive troops?" Xu You glanced at the army outside the city, and said with a sneer, "Does Lord Han think Yecheng can be defended?"

Han Fang smiled wryly and said, "We only have a few hundred people, so we can't hold it at all."

"Why are you closing the city gate if you can't hold it? You idiot." Xu You pointed at Han Fang and cursed, "Look at who they are, they are all barbarians, you have to open your eyes and look carefully. Once they break through the city, the people of the entire Yecheng will suffer, do you know?"

Han Fang was taken aback by Xu You's scolding, and then he went up in a blaze and cursed loudly: "You are an idiot. Who would dare to open the city gate without an order from an adult?"

"I." Wu Kuang roared, and chopped off Han Fang's head.

"Put down the drawbridge and open the city gate."

===

Zhao Yun hesitated when he saw the city gate suddenly opened.

"Zilong, I'll go in first," Jiang Wu shouted, "Hurry up and order."

Zhao Yun didn't make a sound, feeling uneasy.

"Hurry up! Zishan may be dangerous."

Zhao Yun glanced at Jiang Wu, and waved his hand resolutely.

"Brother Zifeng, bring 500 people and attack the government first."

"Let's go." Jiang Wu roared and galloped out.

Under the command of the horn, five hundred iron knight soldiers rushed out of the army formation like a lightning bolt, followed behind Jiang Wu, and swept into the city gate like a howling whirlwind.

"call out……"

A Ming Dy crossed the city wall and shot straight into the sky.

(In ancient my country, there was a special weapon specially used for commanding war. Ming means sound, dysprosium means arrow, and Mingdi means sounding arrow. When it is shot, the arrow can make a sound.)
Seeing Jiang Wu send out the signal, Zhao Yun was determined.

"Brother Qiansi, take 500 people and occupy the city gate immediately."

===

Xu You had already changed into ordinary soldier's clothes and hid among the city defense soldiers.When he saw Zhao Yun swarming in with an army, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.Today's Yecheng must be bloody.

Liu Ming saw that Zhao Yun had successfully entered the city with a thousand cavalry, so he immediately ordered his subordinates to disperse, and quickly sealed off the gates of various cities, strictly prohibiting entry and exit.

"What should I do?" Wu Kuang asked in a low voice.

"Put me down from the city wall." Xu You said, "I'll meet Zhang Zhang in Wucheng first, so be careful."
