Chapter 195: Bloody Battle for Defending the City
The two sergeants who had come to negotiate or call for battle, with the sound of these two bows, one of them stuck a feather arrow in his chest, and fell off his horse with a scream. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
They originally thought that they were safe outside the range of bows and arrows, but they didn't expect to be shot by someone, and they didn't understand until they died, where did a person in this Yangzhou city come out who could shoot a strong bow of more than two stones!
With the fall of these two people, there was silence in the city and under the city.
Therefore, Bai Chengxing's angry voice was also very clear and loud: "County Lord, you are ......"
Li Yi coldly interrupted him and said, "General Bai doesn't really think that Kang Lushan drove tens of thousands of elite soldiers across the river to the north to attack Yangzhou, and I only need to send him a little lady, and he will retreat?"
Immediately, King Sheng reprimanded: "Naive!"
The two sang and reprimanded in harmony, and everyone heard it very clearly in the silence.
Bai Chengxing's white face turned red, gritting his teeth, but he was helpless against these two people!
One is a nobleman who came here to supervise the war, and the other is a local overlord and a famous lady of the empire.
Qin Nuan looked at this goods with pity, he was indeed a little weaker, it was not wrong to be weak, what was wrong was that he had just stumbled into a group of strong people by himself and cleverly!
In the capital, he has Zhaoyi's sister, the prince's nephew, and the princess's mistress, and he is indeed very open-minded, but in this place where the emperor is far away, on this battlefield, he is respected by strength.
Including Duan Xiushi, who has no backstage and no background, and looks humble and humble, Qin Nuan dares to guarantee that if it was Duan Xiushi who was humiliated that day, many of these Shanzhou soldiers would definitely rebel angrily.
There was silence on the tower of the city gate, and suddenly there was a cheer: "The county lord is mighty!"
"The county lord is mighty!"
āā¦ā¦ā
At the beginning was the royal guards, followed by the Jinwuwei, and then the other soldiers on the city wall cheered.
King Sheng looked around left and right with satisfaction, and it was obvious that with these two arrows, the morale of the Yangzhou defenders had risen sharply!
These two arrows are too majestic!
A hundred steps through Yang is a marksman, and the two of them are already two hundred steps away, ordinary bows and arrows are difficult to hurt, although shooting down from the city, taking a little advantage, but the strong bow in Li Yi's hand must also be more than two stones.
From the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, those who can open the three-stone strong bow are all super-first-class fierce generals, and after hundreds of years, there are very few, and those who can open the two-stone strong bow are also famous generals.
King Sheng praised: "Ah Yi is a good archery!"
And Duan Xiushi and those Shanzhou soldiers have been on the battlefield for a long time, so they naturally know more about the goods, and their eyes are full of respect and admiration.
Duan Xiushi couldn't help but praise loudly: "The county lord's archery technique is amazing!"
No one pays attention to Bai Chengxing anymore.
Bai Chengxing's face turned red and white, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "The rebels are going to attack the city!"
When the scolding is over, it is naturally a hard attack.
However, in the first half of the year, Gao Teng strengthened Yangzhou's defense a lot, and the city wall and the urn city outside were repaired.
In the large camp of the enemy army in the distance, huge catapults and ballistas were launched.
Seeing these siege weapons, Qin Nuan couldn't help but look nervously at His Royal Highness King Sheng, did he still want to stay here?
Bai Chengxing was nervous and nervous, but he wished that King Sheng would stay here, and it was best to have three long and two short.
Duan Xiushi persuaded: "Your Highness, the rebels are about to attack the city, and the son of a daughter will not sit in the hall." Please leave the city walls!"
Li Yi said: "Yangzhou is surrounded by fertile fields, they came from afar, and they couldn't find so many big stones for a while!
At this point, Duan Xiushi has not been in Yangzhou for a few days, but he didn't expect that when he heard Li Yi say this, his expression relaxed a little. There are many kinds of big stones on the Gobi in the Shanzhou wasteland, and the combat power of the catapult is extremely strong.
However, Li Yi helped persuade King Sheng: "What General Duan said is reasonable, and it is appropriate for His Highness to sit in the city." ā
To be honest, he still has to distract the defenders to protect him here, which is tied.
Seeing that everyone was so persuasive, King Sheng encouraged Bai Chengxing and Duan Xiushi a few words, and then led people down the city wall.
When Li Yi left, he said to Bai Chengxing and Duan Xiushi: "Although the two generals are assured to defend the city with all their strength to resist the rebels, the favorite spies of the pseudo-Zhou rebels are lurking in the city and waiting for an opportunity, and this county will let the Jingwei battalion patrol all over the city day and night, and they will not be given the slightest opportunity!"
Just as she spoke, Bai and Duan stood on the high city wall and looked into the city, and under the city wall, there were small groups of black-clothed and black-armored Jingwei cavalry patrolling every street.
Since the beginning of the war, everyone has heard of the power of the pseudo-Zhou spies, and Duan Xiushi couldn't help but praise: "The county lord is very thoughtful!"
But Bai Chengxing's face was a little not good, which meant that the entire Yangzhou City was controlled by Li Yi, and they could only fight desperately on the city wall!
Moreover, although Li Yi's Jingwei battalion is only 2,000, it is well-equipped, all of them are cavalry, excellent archery, and combat power cannot be underestimated.
Bai Chengxing watched Li Yi lead people down the city wall, his eyes stayed on Qin Nuan's back for a while, and he secretly made a decision in his heart.
Qin Nuan and the others had just left the city wall, and before they got on their horses, they heard shouts of killing on the city wall and outside the city wall, and then they heard the loud "bang" sound of the boulder falling and smashing into the ground on the wall, as well as the screams of people, and the sound of huge crossbow arrows breaking through the air......
Just as she was on her horse and looking back, she saw a large stone crash into the city wall, not far from them, and smashed on the ground and splashed a cloud of dust...... If it falls on a person, he will be smashed!
Qin Nuan followed Li Yi back to the palace, and the battle on the city wall continued, lasting for two hours, and it was already dark, so it stopped temporarily.
Qin Nuan felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and every once in a while, there were guards to report the battle situation and the casualties of the soldiers.
Listening to the increasing number of deaths again and again, Qin Nuan's heart became more and more uncomfortable, and the sarcastic words of the rebel soldiers who came to scold the battle echoed in her heart again and again like acupuncture: "You actually disregard the lives of tens of thousands of people and soldiers in Yangzhou for the sake of a woman!"
Although he knew that the thief soldier said this on purpose, although everyone thought that even if Qin Nuan was sent out, it would be impossible for the thief soldier to retreat, but Qin Nuan himself knew that part of the reason why Kang Lushan attacked Yangzhou so ruthlessly was because of himself and the reincarnation spirit jade.
Li Yi read the recitals gathered from all over the place in the study.
Qin Nuan withdrew and walked to the garden behind the study to sit under a remote flower tree, shrunk into a ball, the surroundings were too quiet, and it seemed that the sound of fighting in the distance could be heard.
Qin Nuan thought, it is estimated that everywhere on and under the city wall has been stained red with human blood and soaked in ......
Qin Nuan's tears dripped onto the soil one by one, printing clumps of wet prints.
"Ah Nuan!" the hand that had been warm covered her back and patted her gently.
Qin Nuan raised his head and saw Yang Yun's black eyes full of worry and distress.
Yang Yun gently wiped the tears on her face with a silk handkerchief, and said softly: "This matter has nothing to do with you, why do you blame yourself like this?"
When Qin Nuan heard him say this, he couldn't help but cry: "If there is no me, no Yuhuan, they will not come to attack Yangzhou!"
"Wrong! Without the Yuhuan, the thieves will also come to attack Yangzhou! Because Yangzhou City is rich in the world, because King Sheng is also in Yangzhou, because Yangzhou is empty; again, even without you, Yuhuan will still exist, and where Yuhuan is, there will also be swords! You just happen to meet at the right time!"
His voice was both gentle and resolute, and the soreness and bitterness in Qin Nuan's heart were soothed a lot.
"Would you like to drink some hot tea and eat something?" Yang Yun gently patted her back.
Qin Nuan wiped his wet face with a silk handkerchief, and was about to raise his head when he heard Ding Yin's voice: "Xiao Nuan!"
I saw Ding Yin carrying a palace lamp, standing not far in front, uncharacteristically, without a trace of a smile on his face.
