Unparalleled Huaxiong of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 401 A Farce

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The crossbow arrows of the garrison arrows shot at the Hu cavalry and the armored soldiers of the family who had just rushed into the palace gate like a gust of wind and rain. Round after round of strong bows and crossbows, the enemies at the palace gate were cleared in a blink of an eye, leaving only A mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood composed of human and horse corpses.

The garrison arrows, this crossbow army was used by Wu Jie, a famous anti-golden general in the Southern Song Dynasty, to defend against the iron cavalry of the state of Jin. Flying out and piercing through a person's body is like piercing through a piece of paper!
Whether it is the Xianbei people, the Qiang people or the horses under them, there is no resistance in front of this fierce arrow!
Lu Zhi's expression changed drastically when he heard the neighing sound of people in the palace. He grabbed me, Wang Xian, and asked him sharply:

"When did Zhang Ji and Hu Zhen enter the palace?!"

With a gloomy face, Wang Xian opened Lu Zhi's hand, and said in a cold voice:

"I've been following you since this morning. You ask me? Then who do I ask?! If you don't have the ability to capture this forbidden palace, then go to the General's Mansion and get Hua Xiong's family!"

Yueji immediately saw the defeat at the palace gate ahead, and was worried in his mind. Hearing what Wang Xian said, he patted his thigh and said:

"That's a good idea! Let's take down Hua Xiong's family members, as well as Nao Shizi Shang Shuling and Ting Wei, and then force these two people to order to hand over the city defense, and there will be no Hua Xiong in Chang'an City!"

"No!"

"No!"

Lu Zhi and Gao Gan said in unison, and Lu Zhi said to Yueji:
"If Hua Xiong had taken precautions in this Forbidden Palace, how could his own Grand General's Mansion open the door? It would be a waste of time to divert now, besides, our goal is to rescue the Son of Heaven, and then raise our arms to call the princes and kings of all walks of life to protect us! "

Gao Gan was more straightforward: "Jia Xu and Li Ru live in the General's Mansion. Both of them are Hua Xiong's confidantes, and their defenses are extremely strict. Zhang Ji has deployed heavy troops! There are only a few Hua Xiong in the backyard. The female relatives are not a threat to Hua Xiong at all!"

"Hmph! Why do you want Hua Xiong to give you time to call the princes Qin Wang when you can't hold Hua Xiong's vitals? If you don't take down those female relatives, how will you know that they are not a threat to Hua Xiong?!"

Wang Xian snorted coldly, and then he actually said to Yueji: "This king must be the king of the Qiang tribe, Yueji? King Qiang, tell me, is there any reason for my words?"

In an instant, both Lu Zhi and Gao Gan understood that Wang Xian seemed determined to take down Huaxiong's General's Mansion.

Yueji over there nodded when he heard the words. Although he is not the king of Qiang, Wang Xian's words undoubtedly made him feel good. Yueji turned to Lu Zhi and said, "I will organize a forbidden palace at this palace gate again. If If you can achieve it, let it go, if you can’t, then transfer to the General’s Mansion!"

After saying that, Yueji said to Tuoba Liwei: "Let the warriors find some cover and attack again!"

"no need!"

Lu Zhi interrupted Yue Ji with a cold voice, and said, "We are prepared."

After finishing speaking, Lu Zhi waved his hand behind him and ordered: "Shield!"

As soon as Lu Zhi finished speaking, a group of armored soldiers holding shields ran out behind him. Lu Zhi said to Yue Ji and Tuoba Liwei: "These people are leading the way, and your cavalry will follow behind. Spread your wings and rush towards the enemy!"

Yueji nodded and said: "Okay! Listen to you! Let your people go!"

Lu Zhi nodded towards Gao Gan, and immediately those armored soldiers with shields lined up outside the palace gate, and then marched towards the palace gate with slightly messy steps.

The garrison guarding behind the palace gate had already finished changing their arrows, and they were waiting for the people from outside the city to come in again. As soon as the armored soldiers with shields stepped into the gate, there was another sound of bowstring trembling, boom——

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

boom!
boom!
boom!
Different from before, this time when the arrows of the garrison arrows flew out, there were bursts of low and muffled noises. This was the sound of the arrow piercing the shield, and then the sound of the sharp arrow piercing the flesh.

"what!!"

There was another burst of screams at the gate of the palace, but compared to before, the loss of Lu Zhi's armor soldiers this time is already very small, and each arrow stationed in the team before can often take away one or two people. Life, now each arrow can only cause damage to the first soldier hidden behind the shield after penetrating the shield.

As the first row of armored soldiers with shields fell down, the armored soldiers with shields soon filled up behind them. Several rows of armored soldiers with shields pushed forward step by step into the palace gate. Behind the armored soldiers were Hu cavalry from the Qiang and Xianbei people. .

Seeing this, the leading general stationed on the side of the team waved a red command flag to the left and right, and there was a sound of orderly footsteps from both sides of the palace gate at the same time!
wow-

I saw groups of heavy infantry wearing heavy armor and also holding shields gathering towards the gate of the palace. Unlike the armored soldiers attacking on the opposite side, the shields held by these heavy infantry were all giant shields that were about the same height as themselves!

The heavy infantry of the Song Dynasty, the heavy infantry with the strongest defense in ancient Chinese history, a suit of armor composed of nearly two thousand rose leaves, and the weight of the whole body armor weighed a hundred catties!
All of a sudden, a thousand heavy infantry marched forward, causing the ground to tremble, causing Lu Zhi, Yue Ji, Gao Gan and others outside the palace to have a bad feeling in their hearts. However, the miscellaneous armored soldiers who were improvised by the guards and servants of the aristocratic families in Chang'an City didn't know how to deal with them.

At this time, he saw it from behind, and with a ferocious laugh, he roared: "Warriors of the Qiang nationality! The enemy's infantry has blocked their crossbows, now is the time for you to charge!"

Then, Yueji issued an order that made Lu Zhi and Gao Gan tearful: "All Qiang warriors, charge forward! Kill all who stand in front of your horseshoes!"

"Ow!"

After hearing Yueji's order, the Qiang cavalry roared excitedly, and then rushed towards the palace gate in front of them regardless of the armored soldiers gathered from various families in front of them!

Pitiful to those aristocratic armored soldiers who held their shields to clear the way for Hu Qi, they were faced with the crossbow arrows like a torrential rain, but now the crossbow arrows stopped, and Hu Qi behind him swung his butcher knife at him.

Those Qiang cavalry don't care which camp these people in front of them belong to. In their eyes, these are all Han Chinese, and that's enough.

Seeing the Qiang people waving butcher knives at his subordinates, Gao Gan pulled out the sword from his waist and pointed it at Yueji, and asked sharply in his mouth:

"Dog thief! What are you doing?! Let them stop!"

Lu Zhi next to Gao Gan also looked angry at first, but then he calmed down. Just looking at the scene in front of him, he suddenly felt that this matter was a farce from beginning to end.
