Chapter 457: Siege Battle
Seven days later, Chu He's body had recovered most of it, although in the past few days, the battle was raging, and the sound of fighting outside had become more and more intense, but every time he saw Fang Xue, he didn't say anything, just told him again and again to recuperate from his injuries as soon as possible and recover as soon as possible.
Chu He bounced up from the bed and walked out of the wing room of the medical hall, and the two guards saw it, they were all surprised, and they saluted respectfully, and shouted, "Chu Xia." ”
Chu He asked, "How is the battle going now?"
One of the soldiers immediately reported: "Chu Xia, the situation is not good now, the 30,000 troops of the Changfeng Empire are attacking the city, and there are 50,000 cavalry guarding the formation, they have been attacking for three days, and our side has suffered a lot of casualties, and even the guards have been hit by an arrow." ”
The sound of killing coming from the city tower in the Chu River could be felt, and in the past few days, the war has become more and more intense.
"Take me up to the castle tower. ”
"Yes, Chu Xia. Although Chu He did not have an official position, his presence, in this contingent of prisoners of war, was transcendent.
Under the leadership of the two guards, the three of them walked out, the quiet medical hall a few days ago, now it is full of people, even the aisle, are lying with bloody wounded soldiers, screaming endlessly, from the injuries of these people, you can imagine how fierce and cruel the siege battle in the past three days.
The doctors in the hospital are busy, the old doctor, exhausted, is estimated to have been tortured a lot, in this era, there is no so-called human rights, in order to save their own people, Fang Blood used the lives of all the people in the hospital to threaten them, forcing them to save people, who called them the people of the Changfeng Empire, not the people of the Great Xia Emperor?
"Thank you, old doctor. Chu He was also saved no matter what he said, stepped forward, and bowed respectfully.
The old doctor turned around, and was also surprised to see Chu He, and asked, "Has the general's body recovered?"
"Most of the recovery has been made, the war is tight, there is no time for me to heal, but the old doctor don't worry, this is my own decision, it has nothing to do with the medical center, you are not allowed to be unreasonable to the old doctor. ”
"Yes, Chu Xia. ”
With Chu He's words, this medical hall can be regarded as preserved, and the old doctor is also relaxed, he can hardly see that Chu He is very important to these troops, and his status is extraordinary, he didn't see that the war was so tight, and there were many soldiers around him to take care of him.
Chu He didn't say anything, took two guards, and then walked all the way out of the medical hall, there were already more than a dozen soldiers guarding the medical hall for him behind him, but when he arrived on the street, there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance.
A cavalryman rushed wildly, and shouted urgently: "Xicheng is in danger, everyone waits, rapid reinforcements, rapid reinforcements." ”
Without a moment's hesitation, Chu He had already shouted: "Go, go to Xicheng." ”
"Chu Xia, please come with me and go to Xicheng, there is a shortcut. ”
A soldier led the way, and Chu He led a dozen people towards Xicheng.
The two major city gates in the northwest are facing the Changfeng Empire, of course, it is also the main target of the enemy's siege, in the past three days, tens of thousands of corpses have been left under the city tower, but the pioneer battalion has also paid a considerable price to be able to hold the city and not be breached, which is also fortunately, although Sunset City is a lonely city, but in the short term, weapons and food are not lacking.
In addition, Fang Xue captured a lot of strong men, as a logistical support, after several tragic battles, Sunset City was still in control.
It's just that the opponent's offensive is getting more and more fierce, taking turns to fight, the prisoner of war camp is exhausted, and it has repeatedly fallen into danger, taking Fang Blood as an example, it has been two days and two nights, and he has not closed his eyes.
Chu He climbed the West City Tower, found that the city tower was in danger everywhere, a lot of enemy soldiers had climbed the city tower, and were fighting with the soldiers, on the city tower, the blood flowed into a river, the killing of the lungs was screaming, in this sunset, it was particularly red and cruel.
Chu He didn't think much about it, with one arm, the Overlord Divine Spear was already in his hand, and shouted: "Kill it." ”
More than a dozen guards behind him also immediately pulled out the Xueliang steel knife on his waist, and rushed towards the chaotic city tower with Chu He, Chu He saw the most dangerous place, that is a burly, domineering general, after he ascended the city tower, he was almost invincible, and there were soldiers who repeatedly blocked him, and he was killed by a knife.
And he constantly destroyed the soldiers' moats, leaving a river of blood along the way.
Chu He's spear stabbed silently into the general's chest, full of danger, the general's face changed slightly, and he rolled on the spot, but the spear instantly changed direction, slid through the general's arm, and a blood splashed out, and there was a red wound on the arm.
The general stood up, his face was full of murderous energy, and he didn't even have a little superfluous movement, the whole person went down the mountain like a fierce tiger, and pounced towards the Chu River, the siege battle, the brave won, of course he wanted to kill all those who stood in his way.
But it's a pity, no matter how fast his body is, it can't be faster than the spear in Chu He's hand, the spear reversed, and turned into six gun intents, like a charming light, the general only felt a flower in front of him, and the spear came with a "poof" sound, and it had already pierced into his chest.
Even so, the general did not admit defeat, the knife in his hand drew a bright light, and slashed towards Chu He, as if he wanted to die with him, but how could Chu He give him such an opportunity, even if this general's brave heart is admirable, but between the enemy and me, either you die or I die.
As soon as the spear was picked, the general's body had already been picked out, yes, picked out of the city, more than ten zhang on the platform, fell down, a long scream came, and then disappeared in the vast sea of people, it is estimated that if you don't fall to death, you will be trampled into pulp by these siege troops.
"Chu Xia is mighty. ”
"Chu Xia is mighty. ”
Immediately, the prisoner of war troops have recognized the Chu River, many people shouted excitedly, driving the frenzied morale, Chu He has no time to be polite with people, now on the West City, there are still a lot of enemy soldiers, he drilled into the crowd, spears danced, and solved the soldiers who attacked the city tower one after another.
It seems that after the last killing, Chu He has become perfect for killing.
With the attack of the Chu River, driven, the fighting spirit rose, and the strength continued to improve, and soon, these Changfeng soldiers who climbed the city tower were eliminated one by one, and it didn't take long, maybe a round of attacks failed, and the siege troops of the Changfeng Empire retreated.
Almost all of them gathered in front of Chu He.
Fang Xue, who came to help urgently, walked in front of Chu He, and the two looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.
Fang Xue held a knife in one hand and tied the other to his chest, it seemed that he was really injured.
"Are you okay with your arm?"
"Hit an arrow, it's not a big deal, compared to you being hit by so many arrows, you can still live a dragon and a tiger, how dare I say that I have something, what about you, your health is better?"
"Almost, Sunset City is so in crisis, I don't dare to lie back and enjoy it anymore. ”
Fang Xue breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Fortunately, you came in time, otherwise as soon as the Xicheng is broken, we will be wiped out, Brother Chu, the situation is in crisis, I will not be polite to you, from today onwards, this Xicheng will be handed over to you, I know that with your strength, you can leave at any time, but you are willing to stay, it is our brother of life and death, I will make you the commander of the vanguard battalion in the name of Duwei." ”
Fang Xue is only a guard, his position is not high, not even a general, let alone handsome.
But as the commander of the Pioneer Battalion, he is indeed the leader of the current prisoner of war camp.
With the addition of these prisoners of war, the vanguard battalion has become a vanguard guard, as the strongest Chu River, everyone regards him as an idol, and Fang Xue certainly hopes that he will use him to boost morale and hold the city until the reinforcements of the Great Xia Empire arrive.
So the so-called handsome is also a kind of morale recognition.
Chu He laughed and said, "Okay, I will accept the position of handsome for the time being, stick to the Xichengchi, and live and die with you." ”
"Chu Shuai!" the group of soldiers shouted, and the sound shook the sky.
In the tent of the Changfeng Empire in the distance, it was also alarmed.
A middle-aged military general came out of the tent and shouted in a deep voice: "Someone, what's going on?"
"General, the people of Sunset City are cheering for victory. ”
The general's face was even worse, and he shouted, "Sunset City Lord, let him come to see me." ”
"Yes, General. ”
The military general turned around and walked into the tent, and not long after, the skinny monkey-like sunset city lord appeared in the general's military tent.
"General Helian, I don't know what to tell you about summoning the lord of this city?"
This Helian military general raised his head, his eyes flashed a little chill, and shouted: "Changsun City Lord, after three days of continuous siege of the city, our army lost tens of thousands of horses, and the captain also buried Sima in the city tower, but you told General Ben that this is just a chaotic army composed of prisoners of war?"
The city lord of the eldest grandson of this thin monkey was a little embarrassed, and said: "General Helian, what the city lord has seen is indeed so, these troops occupying Sunset City are the tens of thousands of prisoners of war brought by the general of the imperial guard that day, they are all prisoners of war in the first battle of Mingyue City, but I didn't expect that all the rebellion that night, and even wiped out the five thousand cavalry led by the general of the imperial guard, and then broke through Sunset City." ”
At this moment, General Helian's face turned bloody, and he shouted: "After destroying 5,000 cavalry and capturing Sunset City, 10,000 prisoners of war have become gods of war, why didn't you say this information earlier, let our army suffer heavy losses, I will report to the emperor and let you be punished as you deserve." ”
The face of the city lord of the eldest grandson also changed, and he shouted: "General Helian, what the city lord said is true, if you don't believe it, you can let people inquire, if you put the mistake on the city lord in order to shirk your responsibility, the city lord is not easy to mess with, the city lord's sister is the side concubine of the emperor, General Helian should break the city as soon as possible and kill these prisoners of war, otherwise the consequences are not for us to bear." ”
"Bastard, this general does things, and he still needs to use you to teach, come to someone. ”
"General. Several tent guards rushed in, and General Helian shouted, "Take him down, imprison him, and wait for General Ben to break through Sunset City, and then write to the Emperor to punish him for his great crimes." ”
The Sunset City Lord was taken down in the incessant shouting and scolding, and General Helian shouted: "General Chuanben ordered, stop the siege, the whole army rests, and send someone to find out the details of the Sunset City, and then make plans." ”
A group of prisoners of war can actually destroy the five thousand war horses of the Imperial Guard General, which is already a very powerful force, so he feels that these people in Sunset City are no longer prisoners of war, they should be the strongest elite of the Great Xia Empire, with such strength, it should attract the attention of the Changfeng Empire, maybe the tentacles of Great Xia have infiltrated the Western Regions and captured Sunset City, which is just their first plan, and they need to be extra careful.
Thinking of this, he immediately called pen and ink, wrote an urgent letter, and sent cavalry to Kyoto, he needed to report the strangeness of Sunset City to the Emperor, although Sunset City only had thousands of people, and they lost a lot in the three-day attack, but their strength should not be underestimated, and if they were not careful, they would capsize, so as a general, he did not dare to have a slight negligence.
