Volume 1 Ghost Town Chapter 98 Chaoyang City is lost
The horses' hooves were crowded, the iron armor was ringing, and the faces of every Song soldier were filled with excitement.
As long as they enter Chaoyang City, the entire Tang Kingdom will also be destroyed, and these people will also become the heroes of the expansion of the territory, and what awaits them will be supreme glory.
Suddenly, the team in front of them stopped, and just as everyone was puzzled, a ray of light suddenly fell from the sky and smashed on the ground, and the dust flew immediately.
Suddenly, someone exclaimed: "There is an enemy situation, set up a formation!"
Everyone quickly set up a formation, but soon someone rushed out of the mountains and forests to the east, rushed into the ranks like a flock of tigers, and quickly broke up the formation.
Almost at the same time, countless people appeared out of thin air, standing in the air, some stepped on the long sword, stirring up sword qi one after another, like raindrops to sprinkle downwards, some people quickly pinched the trick with both hands, and the runes emitted streamers, blocking the rain of arrows splashed below, and some people directly clenched their fists with both hands and slammed down......
The number of people who suddenly appeared in this group was not large, and the distance between them was also very long, but they were able to cooperate with each other, as long as someone was injured, someone would immediately fill it, and the team of tens of thousands of people was completely disrupted.
Among the Song army, someone shouted, "It's a cultivator." ”
This shout made the already chaotic ranks even more chaotic, and some people even began to hug their heads and scurry, not caring at all about the orders issued from the front.
A person holding a spear suddenly fell from the sky, and the spear in his hand shone brightly, and after smashing on the ground, a wave of qi suddenly rushed and spread to the surroundings, killing countless Song troops on the spot.
The main general surnamed Kang shouted: "Continue to march towards Chaoyang City, and those who take a step back will be killed!"
The Song army, which was already in a mess, actually began to gather the team and continued to march in the direction of Chaoyang City, ignoring the sudden appearance of more than 100 strong people.
After the commander of the Song army issued an order, he then shouted: "Hu Yanhao led the Xiaocai battalion to stay, and must kill all these people!"
A burly general clenched his fists to receive the order, and then raised his hand, and suddenly a cavalry broke away from the ranks.
With a wave of his hand, the cavalry began to change formation, first stepping out of hundreds of cavalry, each with a spear in their hand, and then rushing forward with their horses and horses rushing towards these so-called cultivators.
Almost at the same time, hundreds of horsemen were dispatched in unison, each with a crossbow in their hands, and countless arrows rained down towards those strong men who were standing in the air.
As soon as the cavalry fired their crossbows, they retreated, and hundreds of horsemen came out to draw their swords on horseback, and rushed forward, following closely behind the hundred horsemen with spears.
Zhou Tong looked at these cavalrymen, his brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't say anything, just made a gesture, and two hundred people gathered around Zhou Tong at the same time, and one asked, "General......"
Zhou Tong said in a deep voice: "Don't pay attention to it, leave this team behind." ”
Everyone nodded, and then quickly dispersed, the battle soul master and the sword master were in front, rushing towards those cavalry, the rune master was behind, and the runes continued to be rolled out, enveloping the war soul master and the sword master.
Zhou Tong turned his wrist and threw the spear in his hand directly, and his body followed.
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound, blood splattered, and the head of a soldier was directly pierced throughout, and then exploded on the spot.
Zhou Tong grabbed the spear, swept directly, slapped the spear on a soldier, swept the soldier out, and then kicked his legs directly on a war horse, the war horse suddenly crashed out uncontrollably to the side, with a loud bang, the cavalry that rushed out first fell directly to the ground in a row, and some of those who couldn't dodge were directly crushed in the mud by the war horse.
The general of the Song army stared at Zhou Tong with both eyes, and his eyes narrowed directly into a line, the combat power displayed by this person was at least a third-order powerhouse, and he was also a battle soul master whose killing power was second only to that of a sword master.
He looked at the rest of the people again, and their strength was not weak, the lowest was the peak of the first order and the ninth rank, and most of them were second-order powerhouses, and they cooperated with each other very tacitly, although there were only a hundred people, they could be worth thousands of troops.
The combat strength of these three thousand Xiao cavalry battalions is not low, as long as this group of people dare to fight to the death, he is sure that he can completely wipe out these people, but in that case, the Xiao cavalry battalion is bound to suffer heavy losses.
The Xiao Cavalry Battalion is the elite of the Song Kingdom, and there is no reason to die on any battlefield other than the decisive battle, not to mention that he still doesn't know what the identity of these people is and what purpose they are.
As soon as he raised his hand, another hundred horsemen walked out.
There has always been only one way for the army to deal with cultivators, and that is to use the lives of countless soldiers to exhaust the other party to death, and there is no other way.
This is the gap between ordinary people and cultivators, a gap that can only be bridged with countless living lives.
Cavalry continued to rush out, then fell, and went forward one after another.
And time is also constantly lost in this round of killing, the cavalry of 3,000 people has fallen most of them in a blink of an eye, and the team composed of 200 people has lost one-third.
Zhou Tong pinned a cavalryman directly to the horse's back with one shot, and then gasped, his eyes were staring at the remaining cavalry opposite, and he said coldly: "Change from passive to active." ”
After saying that, his body left the ground, and the spear flew out of his hand, directly taking the opponent's general.
At the same time, the remaining Condor Guards also shot at the same time, and countless runes flashed with dazzling light, enveloping Zhou Tong entirely.
And Zhou Tong had the blessing of the rune, whether it was speed and strength, the north of the capital increased, and instantly appeared in front of the enemy general, and the spear in his hand stabbed directly at the opponent's Adam's apple.
The general's figure quickly retreated, and Zhou Tong followed closely, but a soldier suddenly rushed and crashed into Zhou Tong's spear, blocking the shot.
After Zhou Tong was blocked, countless Song soldiers also rushed over to this side, forcibly separating Zhou Tong from the Song army generals.
The sun has risen overhead, and in the sun, the strong smell of blood fills the whole world, making people sick, and the official road is full of countless corpses, more than three thousand people, and there are only a few hundred people standing at this moment.
On the side of the Condor Guard, except for Zhou Tong, there were only more than twenty people standing, and on the opposite side, there were only about a hundred people left of the three thousand people at the moment, and even the main general Hu Yanhao had been covered by countless corpses.
In Chaoyang City, Mo Yan held the Yuanhong in his hand, and kept killing the Song troops who climbed up the city tower, and the runes flickered and exploded in the sky above Chaoyang City, like brilliant fireworks.
The battle continued into the evening, and the 50,000 men and horses, together with the 3,000 men who had broken away earlier, had lost nearly a quarter.
General Kang, who was in charge of this attack, had a heavy face, because until now, not a single soldier had been able to climb Chaoyang City, and on Chaoyang City, except for the Condor Guard, no other troops were found.
His task is not to take Chaoyang City, but to force all the troops of Chaoyang City out, and it is obvious that he has not been able to complete the task assigned by His Royal Highness the Prince.
As soon as he raised his hand, the Song army directly shouted gold, and all the Song troops retreated like a tide, and then changed their formation, and soon withdrew from the boundary of Chaoyang City, advancing towards Tiger Leaping Pass.
Mo Yu looked at the retreating Song army, and looked at Zhou Daodao, who had already returned: "Take three hundred people, pursue with me, and kill as many as you can." ”
After saying that, her whole person directly rushed into the sky with a purple light, and then smashed towards the rear of this Song army.
There was no need for Zhou Tong to say anything, just raised his hand, and suddenly walked out of three hundred people, and then the city gate opened, and the three hundred people directly turned over their horses, rushed out in a cone, and soon caught up with the retreating Song army, and a massacre began.
Three hundred people, pursued from Chaoyang City to Tiger Leaping Pass, and killed two thousand Song troops.
That night, the remaining more than 600 people were all guarding the city tower, no one rested, until the next night, the Song army did not attack again, but only sent a small force to attack Chaoyang City, but they were all directly killed by the Condor Guard.
It wasn't until late at night the next day that the Song army launched another sneak attack, with as many as 100,000 troops, and the Condor Guard lost more than 300 people to block this round of offensive.
The night is long and starry.
Mo Yu put his hands on the hilt of Yuanhong's sword, looking at the corpses under the city, his face was heavy.
As long as the Song army launches another round of offensive, Chaoyang City will inevitably be lost, and by that time, the Condor Guard will no longer exist, and even her Moyu will die in this battle.
It's not that she's afraid of death, but she doesn't want to die tomorrow.
As long as it persists until tomorrow, the entire southern war situation will be turned upside down, and at that time, the Tang State will also regain the initiative in this battle, so as to launch a counteroffensive and recapture the twenty counties of the four southern states that have been lost.
Zhou Tong was already injured in his body, he came to Mo Yu's side at this moment, and said in a low voice: "General, you go first, Zhou Tong swears here, he will definitely hold Chaoyang City for another day!"
Before Mo Yu could speak, the remaining three hundred Divine Eagle Guards also knelt down at the same time, and said loudly: "Please leave Chaoyang City, I will definitely swear to protect Chaoyang City!"
Mo Yu looked at these soldiers who were already covered in scars, but still had advice in their eyes, and there was no expression on their faces.
These people are cultivators, but also ordinary soldiers, in the face of the enemy, they will not retreat, only fight to the death.
Mo Yu knows that for the sake of Tang Guo, they will sprinkle all their blood on this Chaoyang City, and Mo Yu knows that no matter whether Chaoyang City can be held in the end, no one will remember the names of these people.
She slowly closed her eyes and said indifferently: "After dawn, everyone will withdraw from Chaoyang City." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone, including Zhou Tong, was stunned.
Mo Yu didn't explain anything, just continued, "It's an order. ”
After saying this, she turned and walked down the tower, and everyone looked at her back, but nothing could be seen.
Everyone turned their eyes to Zhou Tong, and after Zhou Tong exhaled a breath, he said slowly: "Execute the order." ”
The next day, when all the large forces of the Song army came to Chaoyang City, there was not even a single Tang army in Chaoyang City, and Yanran had already become an empty city......
