Chapter 165: Fake vs. Fake
The morale of Tongwan City has been lost, and the people and officials in the city have almost lost the fighting spirit to resist, and some officials are even fighting with the idea that "no matter how bad it is, it will not be worse than Helian Chang's random killing". If everyone didn't know that if the Wei people were allowed to enter the city, they would definitely turn Tongwan City into a hell on earth, and I am afraid that someone would have abandoned the city and surrendered a long time ago.
The battle lasted from morning to noon, and countless corpses were discarded under the walls of Tongwan City, both Wei and Xia. At noon, at the most critical moment of the battle, the north gate suddenly opened.
The elite cavalry rushed out of the north gate, they lined up in a dense line to kill out of the north gate, stepped through the siege soldiers outside the north gate, and regardless of the siege equipment, went straight to the "king banner".
When Tuoba Tao and the others heard the sound of the horn sounding in the north, their spirits suddenly sank.
"Kumoti, Gu Bi, Zhang Yuan really brought us great benefits!" Tuoba Tao happily pointed to the north gate. Walk! Capture Helian Chang alive! "
Ever since Hemulan heard Kumoti's Jianyì, he had already saved the idea that he must catch Helian Chang. In this era, there are only so many things she can interfere with and prevent, but whenever there is a chance, she has to seize him.
If countless women were raped/adulterated in front of her, and countless old and young were turned into heads and military exploits in front of her, she felt that she would definitely go crazy.
Unlike Creep, Creep is an aggressor.
But here they are the aggressors!
The cavalry at the west gate and the east gate ready for battle immediately rushed towards the north gate for reinforcements, and the large camp that should have been empty also killed ambush soldiers and rushed towards the cavalry team with the banner of Helianchang.
The cavalry of the Wei State was originally famous all over the world, and when it was surrounded on all sides, the iron horses of the iron cavalry walked on the path full of corpses, and approached each other, like a huge pocket, directly surrounding this foreign army.
"It's encircled! Helian Chang must be in the bag! "
Everyone thought so and fought their way to the center of the main formation.
The other party didn't know if he was ready to fight against the water, or if he was really crazy, not only did he not want to avoid it, but he also continued to attack in the direction of the Tuoba Tao King Banner regardless of it.
But they are doomed to disappointment.
Because under the banner of the king, it was Xi Jin, who was the most hated by the Xia people, who commanded the battle, and in front of Xi Jin, it was not Tuoba Tao, but Tuoba Tao's stand-in.
The 30,000 cavalry of Tuoba Tao and Kumoti were divided into two columns, like the two wings of a bird, and directly inserted into the ranks of the Xia army. This team is indeed a rare elite, even generals like Tuoba Tao and Kumoti, who have been on the battlefield for many years, obviously feel that the suzhì of this team far exceeds Helianding's men and horses, and it is not even worse than the most elite cavalry of the Wei State.
There is only one such army in the Xia Kingdom, and it is the elite army "Iron Guard" around the emperor.
He Mulan followed Kumoti and Tuoba Tao to rush to the front of the team, Kumoti was right, once the emperor entered the battlefield, he was indeed like a martial god, single-mindedly only caring about killing the enemy, charging forward, causing the guards and subordinates around him to have to follow the rush forward and launch a fierce attack on the enemy, lest the emperor become a bird at the beginning and be surrounded to death at once.
"Your martial arts are really good!" Tuoba Tao went deeper and deeper, Kumoti had been reduced to a raider, because Kumoti gave He Mulan a gesture, so He Mulan had to follow Tuoba Tao inch by inch, as his guard for the time being.
Tuoba Tao hadn't noticed it yet, but when the resistance around him became smaller and smaller, he swept beside him, and there was already a long figure wearing black hammer armor.
Tuoba Tao naturally has no shortage of guards, but this Mulan is obviously sweeping the formation behind like Kumoti, and suddenly kills in front of her, it must have extremely strong martial arts and can quickly advance. It is to Tuoba Tao has this praise.
"Kumoti still doesn't worry about me, does he?"
Tuoba Tao looked at Kumoti who was commanding the Eagle Yang Army to protect Tuoba Tao's two wings more than a dozen steps away, because Kumoti was obviously better than Tuoba Tao, and Tuoba Tao rushed to the front without many people intercepting him, but he surrounded a lot of people.
"Be careful!"
He Mulan had a flash of consciousness for a while because of Tuobatao's words, but when he came back to his senses, he saw that a cavalry on the other side had rushed to Tuobatao's body, and he was about to stab down when he raised his spear......
It was too late to say that it was too late, and Yue Ying, who hated the tall horse standing in front of him, stood up in a cry that shook the mountains, stretched out his two hooves in front of him and kicked out.
Although Dawan horses are not known for their strength, they have extraordinary explosive power, and when they are on the grassland, they can even kick and smash the head of a lone wolf.
Yue Ying stood up, and the knight on the opposite side instantly lost Tuoba Tao's figure, and was hesitating whether to simply stab this black horse to death, Yue Ying kicked his feet and directly kicked off one of the legs of the war horse in front of him.
"Hee-hee-hee!" (Save your life, you're welcome!) )
"Stupid horse!"
Before Tuoba Tao could find out what was happening, he was immediately slid off his horse by the sudden arrival of Yue Ying. He only had time to protect the back of his head before he fell to the ground in an extremely indecent position.
On the battlefield, especially in the battle formation where the cavalry is sprinting, once you fall off the horse, you are likely to be trampled to death by the horse's hooves. Marco didn't know if it was his own person, and when he stepped on it, he either died on the spot or died in agony.
In particular, Tuoba Tao has now penetrated deep into the enemy army, and most of the soldiers around him are generals. There was a general in the general robe in the enemy army on the opposite side, and when he saw that a general of the enemy country had fallen off his horse, he immediately gave an order, and many soldiers rushed up to face the Tuoba on the ground. [,! ] Tao shot.
Tuoba Tao suddenly fell off his horse, and his back and tailbone hurt from the fall, and as soon as he grabbed the iron lance and wanted to counterattack, he saw a group of cavalrymen with spears in front of him, and he was so shocked that even his hair was already standing up!
He Mulan was the closest to Tuobatao, and seeing that Tuoba Tao was about to die tragically on the spot, he immediately slapped the horse's buttocks, and drove the war horse into the enemy encirclement, the war horse rushed forward, and He Mulan jumped off the horse!
"Drink!"
He Mulan shouted, like thunder in the air, and Xia Jun was shocked.
He Mulan's horse rushed into the front, causing a commotion, He Mulan used her body to cover Tuoba Tao, she was wearing black hammer armor, which was the thickest kind of armor of her own soldiers, all made of iron plates, and the spear pierced her back, making a knock knock sound, but it didn't penetrate it.
But Hermulan's back was numb with pain, and he thought he had some internal injuries.
Yue Ying was still in place, and Tuoba Tao got help from He Mulan, and immediately turned over and got on his horse. He escaped death, vaguely touched the threshold of "entering the martial arts", and suddenly felt that the Xia general in front of him who was giving orders became extremely close, as if he could reach out to reach the place.
That's what he thinks and that's what he does.
Yue Ying is most proud of his ability to accelerate instantly, and after a small sprint, Tuoba Tao picked the general off his horse and stabbed him to death.
There was a chaotic shouting among the enemy troops, and Tuoba Tao listened attentively, and shouted on the other side, "Hu Luwen is dead!" "Shangshu is dead!" Something like that.
It's actually Shangshu Linghu Lvwen! Then this team must be Helianchang's king, there is no doubt!
He Mulan's war horse has been photographed and sent to death by her, although it has collided with the offensive of the Xia army, but it has also made her fall under the horse now. After Tuoba Tao was rescued by her, he patted his ass and got up and got on the horse and left, leaving He Mulan, who was on fire in his belly, secretly compared his middle finger to the back of his emperor, and accepted the idea of saving his life.
"He's X, why bother to save him!"
He Mulan rolled on the ground a few times, avoiding the horse's hooves on the left and right, and sometimes he couldn't avoid it, so he raised his sword in his hand and cut the enemy's horse's leg directly, thinking of escaping.
She died under the hooves of a horse for the first time, and she had the experience of saving several people in the chaos of the army, and knew that in addition to her own panic when she ran under the horse, the enemy soldiers who suddenly found an enemy in front of the horse were also extremely panicked.
When he "entered the army", He Mulan was calmer than ever, and he avoided the trampling of thousands of troops and horses dangerously, and snatched an ownerless horse, turned over on the horse, and followed the figure of Tuobatao.
At this time, Tuoba Tao seemed to remember that he had left a "life-saving benefactor" behind his back, and when he saw He Mulan rushing to kill him, he said in shame: "I almost did something unkind and unjust!" I've just gotten the hang of something, and I've forgotten that there's another warrior ...... to save me! "!!!
Tuoba Tao's eyes widened, and he watched as He Mullan avoided the enemy's swords, guns, swords, and halberds as if he had eyes all over his body, and easily fought his way out.
"You...... You're already in the military! "
How many generals can meet but cannot be sought in the legendary realm, a nameless person, is actually killing the enemy in this realm! And it looks like he's already very skilled!
Tuoba Tao returned in distress, and both Kumoti and the other generals around him were terrified, and a group of people approached Tuoba Tao like crazy.
Tuoba Tao was shocked and waved his hand at He Mulan: "Since you have such a skill, follow me to rush forward and capture Helian Chang alive!"
He Mulan nodded, and the two fought side by side, killing more than a dozen Xia cavalry in a company, and getting closer and closer to Wang Qi.
Both of them reported the belief that Helian Chang must be captured or killed alive, and this belief was almost the same as that of Helian Ding, who had penetrated deep into the territory of Wei at that time.
Helian decided to capture Tuoba Tao in order to protect the people of the Xia Kingdom, while Tuoba Tao captured Helian Chang in order not to have to continue the siege and minimize casualties and losses.
And Hemulan had only one thought in his head:
"Catch Helian Chang! Catch Helian Chang, and I won't have to see that hell on earth! "
There were Kumoti and the others sweeping the formation, and the two of them almost rolled up a storm on the battlefield. In the era of cold weapons, the role of a fierce general is almost equivalent to the guiding light, whether it is friend or foe, they are approaching the bravest general, just to be able to touch the door to victory.
The encircled men and horses gradually ate Helian Chang's team to the point of a small piece of elite. The commander who stood in the main formation in well-armored armor calmly commanded the last elite around him to resist the rebellious army, while insisting on continuing to rush to the "Tuoba Tao" Wang Qi.
Tuoba Tao and He Mulan were already killing like a bloody man at this time, He Mulan was a little unbearable at first, and he became a little numb in more and more killings, and he had no time to care about whether he cut off a few heads or unloaded a few people's arms.
If it weren't for the black hammer armor and good guns and knives that Kumoti sent, her equipment would have been unable to support such a high-intensity battle.
"This Helian Chang is not like the mediocre and cowardly people in the mouths of those generals......" Tuoba Tao looked at Helian Chang who swore to die and would not escape, and admired it in his heart.
"I'm happy to meet such an opponent!"
'Oh my god! That's what you shouldn't be thinking about right now! ’
Seeing that someone wanted to release cold arrows at the two of them, He Mulan couldn't care about what to do with the weapon in the crisis, so he used the spear in his hand as a javelin and threw it directly, piercing the cavalry archer on the opposite side.
Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to Helian Chang, the three armies were all on the ground. [,! The cheers shook the mountains, but they heard the rapid sound of war drums outside the West Gate, and the sound of the war drums showed that the enemy army had attacked at the West Gate, and the two armies had already fought!
He Mulan and the others were originally guarding the west gate with Tuoba Tao pretending to be ordinary generals, but it was only outside the north gate that Helianchang's "iron guard" appeared, and the army guarding the left and right two gates surrounded the north. To the west of Tongwan City is a land of quicksand, and no one expected that someone would attack there, so the defense force is also the weakest!
"Report! A large number of cavalry appeared at the west gate, and they had fled towards the west! One by one, the messengers immediately passed the battle report to the army in the north, and when it reached Tuobatao's side, everyone was stunned.
Helian Chang's people are at the north gate, so who is the person who appeared at the west gate?
A large number of cavalry? The 20,000 iron guards are here, where are the cavalry from outside the west gate?
Tuoba Tao looked at Helian Chang's position, the commander who was wearing armor and fighting bravely heard the sound of war drums outside the west gate, and immediately showed an ecstatic expression, and the lieutenant general and the rest of the ministers around him were also demoralized, and they worked harder to hold back the army of Wei.
Gu Bi just thought about it for a moment, and immediately his face changed greatly, and he shouted on the battlefield: "Zhang Yuan deceived us!" Zhang Yuan threw Tiewei as a bait, which attracted our attention and let Helian Chang run away! "
"What a Zhang Yuan! It's so bold! "
Tuoba Tao was furious.
"It's ridiculous, I'll take a fake to make up the number, Xia Guo will also take a fake to make up the number, his fake is more real than the real thing!"
Tuoba Tao knew that no amount of entanglement would be useless, so he immediately called the herald around him to give the order.
"Tell Changsun Han to lead people to pursue the cavalry outside the West Gate, and Xi Jin will annihilate this iron guard in place. Gu Bi and Budui and the others continue to attack Tongwan City! "
Tuoba Tao looked back and saw that there were still remnants inside and outside the north gate where the "Helianchang" team had just been released, and he immediately turned his horse's head and continued to rush towards the north gate.
"Kill! While the north gate is not closed, enter the city first and open the city gate! "
The herald's banner changed continuously, the drum sounded, Tuoba Tao was already very close to the fake "Helian Chang", the enemy on the opposite side saw such a brave general, all of them were frightened, and now they saw him turn back immediately when he heard the battle report, and the other generals around him also followed him back, the person who pretended to be Helian Chang was obviously extremely smart, and guessed that this warrior in ordinary clothes and armor was the main master, and he didn't even want his life, and he led the remnants of the army to kill Tuoba Tao.
When He Mulan heard that Helian Chang had run away and that Tuoba Tao was about to storm the north gate, his heart was like falling into an ice cave.
Helian Chang rushed out of the west gate, and the north gate was wide open, indicating that Helian Chang had completely abandoned his country and the people of the city, and ran away with only his own life.
Although the other three gates are still resisting, as long as the north gate is lost, it is only a matter of time before the other three gates are lost. Helian Chang fell alive at the north gate with so many iron guards, and escaped from the west gate with other available cavalry, and the strength of Tongwan City suddenly plummeted, and the morale was afraid that it would not work.
Tuoba Tao doesn't care about this, his purpose is victory!
Conquer Tongwan!
Take down the Xia Kingdom!
If Helian Chang can be captured alive so that the civil and military officials abandon the city and surrender, if Helian Chang can't catch it, even if he really attacks Tongwan until no one is available, this city must be taken!
The general pretending to be Helian Chang led all the horses to chase after Tuobatao, but how could Kumoti and the others let him touch his emperor? The army quickly plunged into the middle of the troops led by Tuoba Tao and the false Helian Chang, isolating them.
Seeing that Tuoba Tao had run away, the fake Helian Chang immediately ordered all the cavalry archers to shoot arrows in the direction of Tuoba Tao, Tuoba Tao and He Mulan were grazed by several stray arrows, Tuoba Tao shook his body, and He Mulan's left shoulder sank, and he disappeared from their sight.
When Mullin and Tuoba Tao rushed under the north gate, the north gate was ready to close. I thought that he knew that Helian Chang had rushed out in Ximen, and there was no need to attract enemies here, so he began to protect himself.
How fast is the instant acceleration of Yue Ying? In the blink of an eye, Tuoba Tao pursued and killed the defenders under the city gate, and just rushed into the city. He Mulan rushed into the north gate with a group of guards, and when he saw hot oil and hot water pouring over his head, he was so frightened that he rushed into the city almost at flying speed.
Tuoba Tao's Yue Ying is still continuing to charge, and it seems that Yue Ying has gone crazy when he first went to the battlefield. He Mulan was angry and afraid, there were enemies everywhere here, and there were only a few hundred men and horses on their side, and they actually followed Tuoba Tao into the enemy's city stupidly!
He Mulan shouted in anger, and he couldn't shout "Tuoba Tao" or "Majesty" to attract the attention of others, so he had to shout: "Yueying, you brute! Why don't you stop quickly, you want to die! "
A humble word suddenly exploded on the territory of the Huns, and the guards who were still surprised who Tuoba Tao was chasing Xia soldiers all the way immediately turned to Hemulan's position.
The guards found that He Mulan's voice had successfully attracted the attention of Xia Bing and covered for Tuoba Tao, and they immediately showed expressions of admiration or gratitude to her.
Poor Hermulan didn't mean to "taunt" the enemy at all, and she wasn't t, so why bother to attract a group of enemies to swell her face alive?
At that moment, he resigned himself to his fate and continued to rush to the position of Tuoba Tao with hundreds of guards.
The so-called morale is that hundreds of victorious soldiers can kill thousands of scattered soldiers like cattle and sheep to the point of fear. Tuoba Tao rushed out a long way and found that the situation was wrong, but there was no way to retreat from the rear, He Mulan had already rushed into Tongwan City with a group of guards, the north gate was originally the closest to the palace of the Xia Kingdom, otherwise the army would not have camped outside the north gate, Tuoba Tao looked left and right, and actually gave birth to a bold idea. [,! ].
Helian Chang is gone, he must have taken away most of the force in the palace, the palace is now full of old and weak women and children and palace people who have been left behind, it must be panicked, it is better to hide in the palace first, waiting for an opportunity to go out.
The general trend of Tongwan City has gone, and if you don't think about it, it will definitely be broken in the evening, and you will be shaking around in Tongwan City, and your group of people is almost a live target, you can't be so stupid!
Tuoba Tao paid attention to it in his heart, and immediately made a gesture to He Mulan and the others to keep up, and took the lead in rushing towards the Great Summer Palace.
"Oh my God! This majesty is really good at running around! "
He Mulan watched as Tuoba Tao slipped away and turned and ran, resigned to continuing to protect him as he went.
Damn, if she plays the game again in the future, she'd rather not have experience points and favorability, and she won't take on any "NPC protection" characters!
She is neither a big nor a resurrection, how can she guarantee that the other party will not die!
