Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 635 Bloody Battle
Li Dingguo's horse head had just rushed to the top of the city, when a sharp-eyed general on the city yelled, and the guards of the Ming army swarmed over.

When Zhang Huan occupied Wanxian County, the first thing he captured was the city defense on the top of the city. He besieged Li Dingguo and the dozens of people without using the soldiers on the top of the city. Generals in the city.

And not far behind Li Dingguo, Zhang Huan led countless soldiers and turned into the horse path and rushed over.

Li Dingguo had no way out, he could only fight forward, but Li Dingguo's arms seemed to be filled with lead at this moment, and the spear in his hand seemed to weigh as much as a thousand catties, how could he fight?

At this time, the dozen or so soldiers of the Ming army who rushed forward raised their spears and stabbed at Li Dingguo fiercely.

Li Dingguo had no choice but to put the spear in his hand to the top of the shelf desperately.

A group of random guns were blocked, but one shot still pierced Li Dingguo's thigh. The big iron prong pierced through the armor with a sharp blade, riveting a hole in Li Dingguo's left thigh, and blood gushed out.

The painful Li Dingguo almost fell off his horse. Li Dingguo was also in a hurry. He grabbed the long spear and glanced out with all his strength. The Ming army with the gun was thrown up and flew over Li Dingguo's head, falling to the horse behind him. On the road, it happened to hit a Ming army soldier who was charging upwards, and both of them fell off their horses. The horses neighed, causing confusion among the Ming army on the road.

After throwing away the Ming army that stabbed him, Li Dingguo almost fainted, his eyes turned black, and stars shot out. He knew that he was so tired that he was about to go into shock.

But the Ming army soldiers in front of them still shouted and rushed forward.

Li Dingguo knew that he couldn't do it, he had no strength, no matter how high his martial arts were, he couldn't fall into their hands, so let him save his last strength.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously moved the spear in his hand to poke the spear into his belly.

Before Li Dingguo raised his suicide spear, an arrow flew from behind and hit the horse sitting down with a puff.

The white dragon colt shot by this arrow neighed, and the horse was startled. It kicked and bit the prongs and rushed forward, kicking its four hooves and stepping on the heads of Ming soldiers.

Among them, a Ming soldier was kicked away by Bai Longju's hoof and fell to the bottom of the city.

The rest of the Ming soldiers dodged one after another, dodging for this group of frightened horses, but the space on the city wall was too limited to support the horses to run.

When they reached the crenel, the city wall was two feet five feet high, and the beast was also frightened, and pulled back its front hooves to brake suddenly.

The huge inertia threw Li Dingguo, who was weak and exhausted from the horseback, off the wall at once.

Li Dingguo was able to control his white dragon colt, but he was too tired today. The horse was suddenly frightened, which caught him off guard. The moment he was thrown off the top of the wall, Li Dingguo felt as if he was kicking off a tall building. The spear in Zhong's hand was thrown into the city.

Li Dingguo fell headlong towards the city, scrambling with both hands, like a person who can't swim who fell into deep water and wanted to catch something. Not to mention, God was kind to him. He really grabbed something that looked like a rope. Although he was exhausted, he was holding on to the rope very tightly at this moment, because it was the sound of help, and his body was suspended in the air.

Just as he was in shock, Li Dingguo saw clearly that what he was holding in his hand was the reins of a war horse.

If it wasn't for this life-saving straw, with such a high city wall, his brain would have burst if he fell under the city.

Li Dingguo's own weight and the force of the fall almost knocked down the horse at the gate of the city.

But no matter what, a war horse is much heavier than a human. Its front hooves are stiff and its neck is stuck. Even if its neck is broken, it will not fall down.

After the beast gained a firm foothold, it retreated step by step, and slowly pulled Li Dingguo, who was hanging outside the city, to the top of the city. This beast has human nature, so it might be planning to use this method to save its master at this time.

But countless generals on the city rushed to the crenel, including Zhang Huan.

Li Dingguo saw that he could not go up, and he would fall into Zhang Huan's hands when he reached the top, life would be worse than death.Even if you fall to your death, you can't let them catch you.

Therefore, as soon as Li Dingguo gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, he let go of the hand holding the horse's rein. His more than 100 kilograms came down with the acceleration of gravity, which was more than two feet high, and it was completely free fall.

With a dull sound, Li Dingguo fell to the ground, a pool of blood flowed out, and he remained motionless.

Zhang Huan and others in the city knew very well that if they fell from such a high city, they would not die or be disabled. Zhang Huan looked at his bow and arrow and hesitated for a moment, then put the bow away, and ordered, "Kaicheng!"

Zhang Huan led a team of horses and rushed down the city along the horse path. When they arrived at the city gate, the city gate had already been opened wide, and the suspension bridge was also across the moat.

However, Zhang Huan and the others did not go on the suspension bridge, because they had seen clearly from the city just now that Li Dingguo fell from the city and did not fall to the other side of the moat.

Zhang Huan led the horse team to beat Ma Rufei, and galloped along the city wall inside the moat, running for several miles without seeing Li Dingguo.

Zhang Huan was rather puzzled, he obviously fell down, where is he?It just fell from above. There is a corpse under the city, with bloodstains, but it is not Li Dingguo, but a soldier of the Ming army. Why did it disappear after a while?

At this time, the soldiers of the Ming army on the top of the city shouted: "General, the thief general Li Dingguo is not dead, he ran into the moat."

It turned out that Li Dingguo fell from such a high city, and his life was considered untimely, and he happened to fall on a person.

This person is the Ming army soldier who was kicked down the city by Li Dingguo's white dragon horse.

The horse's hoof kicked and fell again, this Ming army soldier was already out of breath, Li Dingguo just fell on top of him, and it counted as saving his life.

The reason why Li Dingguo fell there and remained motionless was not because he was injured from the fall. On the contrary, he was not injured at all except for being shot in the thigh.He was panting, he was tired and needed rest.

In addition, he knew that many pairs of eyes on the top of the city were staring at him at this time. If he moved or stood up and ran, the soldiers of the Ming army on the city would definitely shoot arrows at random. He was unarmed, and he would be shot into a hedgehog when he was exhausted. .

So he had an idea, pretended to be dead and rested here, to accumulate strength, when suddenly warm and sticky liquid flowed into his mouth.

He knew what it was, in the past, he would have vomited, but now he is so hungry and thirsty, this liquid is like milk, sweet, mellow and delicious, nourishing his parched heart.

This move really paralyzed the soldiers at the head of the city, thinking that he fell to death.

Until Zhang Huan took the people away, the other people in the city didn't pay attention to him. Li Dingguo took a few breaths. The key point was that he drank a few mouthfuls of liquid and recovered a lot of energy. Seeing that no one on the city was paying attention to him, he suddenly Get up, take off the battle robe behind you, tear off a few strips, wrap a few tightly around the wound on your left leg, then grab his spear next to him, and limping into the moat He ran, but was finally discovered by the soldiers on the top of the city.

When Zhang Huan and others heard it, this Li Dingguo was too strong, and he couldn't die from such a high fall?He couldn't believe it, Zhang Huan and the soldiers around him all looked at the moat in front of them.

At this time, a figure climbed onto the other side of the moat. Drenched in mud and sand, Li Dingguo, holding a spear, climbed over the moat and limped forward.

Zhang Huan rushed to the moat with his men and horses, only to realize that although the moat was deep, the water level inside was very low. They quickly opened their bows and arrows, but Li Dingguo had already run out of the range of the bow and arrow.

Zhang Huan had no choice but to lead the horse team to gallop along the moat, circle around to the city gate, cross the suspension bridge, and then turn back to chase Li Dingguo.
