Chapter 354: It's like a year
The horse-riding general indifferently watched those white-clothed men cut their throats and commit suicide, without any pity in his eyes, but with a deep hatred for the evil demons. Captain Li, who was not far away, had a hoarse voice, but he still had no intention of stopping, and his grief never ended.
General Xiaocai rubbed his ears, as if he was slightly dissatisfied with Captain Li's actions. After turning over and dismounting, he walked quickly to his side and kicked him to the ground. Raising his hand, he motioned for the guards to step forward and throw the body into the fire pit, and everything was reduced to ashes.
Captain Li was speechless at this time, and could only desperately try to protect Cheng Gong's whole body, but he was trampled under the feet of Captain Xiaoqi.
"If you don't fight for something, you can die and live like this, how can you achieve great things?" As he spoke, he leaned over and lifted Captain Li up.
Sitting on the horse just now, I didn't notice that this cavalry general was actually a whole head taller than Captain Li, I saw him with leopard eyes and lion eyebrows, angry eyes, staring at Captain Li and scolding sharply: "You are a soldier first, then you are a captain, and then your son and brother." You have to understand that on the battlefield, the enemy does not give you the opportunity and time to cry. ”
Lieutenant Li was carried by the cavalry general, and his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably, his eyes were dilated, but he still kept looking at the fire pit.
With a crisp sound of "pop", General Xiaocai slapped Lieutenant Li's face heavily with the palm that had been punched into the fan, and suddenly the man with tears on his face had hot cheeks and were swollen high. But Captain Li didn't move a little bit, and still looked at the fire pit, as if he wanted to see Cheng Gong come back to life.
There was another "snap", and the general of Xiaocai slammed Captain Li to the ground, pointed at him condescendingly and scolded: "Bad seed, follow me to exterminate the chaotic party in the city, and then go back to the camp to receive the crime." ”
With that, he turned and walked towards his mount, and hurried in the direction of the city. At this time, the sky was already getting dusk, and I didn't expect this moment to be so long......
The setting sun shines without warning, piercing through the black smoke in the fire pit, as if calling the souls of the deceased. Huang Wanli and Chen Asan guarded Captain Li like this, not leaving an inch. Lieutenant Li finally got up slowly, climbed onto the mount left for them by the cavalry general, and chased after him with a whip.
Huang Wanli clearly saw the tears in Captain Li's eyes. He finally understood why Captain Li was silent when he came, and why he felt empathy for Cheng Gong's homesickness.
But when the three of them came to the city gate, it was already full of gunsmoke and flesh and blood. It seems that the arrival of the cavalry general has been counted by the town guards, and a fierce battle has been fought at the city gate. The gates were no longer as they had been when they came, one side had completely collapsed, and on the other side there was only half of the door panel, babbling in the wind.
One of the accompanying guards was half-leaning against the city gate, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was still breathing.
Captain Li turned over and dismounted and rushed forward quickly, untied the water bladder on his waist, carefully helped the guard up, leaned on his mouth and moistened his lips. The guard coughed heavily, coughed out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, and then slowly opened his eyes. The first thing to do was to grab the horizontal knife at his side.
Huang Wanli hurriedly greeted him and said in a loud voice: "Brother, we are the people of the emergency battalion who were rescued by you just now. In just half an hour, what happened, and why did it become like this? ”
The man raised his hand and put it heavily on Huang Wanli's wrist, and said weakly: "We have been ambushed, and someone has reported the news." ”
"What about the cavalry generals?" Chen Asan was obviously a little flustered, and hurriedly asked.
The dying guard pointed behind him with his backhand, and then his head hung and he was silent. Captain Li slowly lowered him to the ground, grabbed the horizontal knife from the guard's hand, landed the blade, and walked quickly towards the city gate. Over the years, he has been struggling in the war, and with the Later Tang Dynasty setting the capital of Luoyang, the seven countries of the world, the general trend has been decided.
But who would have thought that when the people of the world thought that the peaceful days were coming, there would still be these small nights still clamoring.
Lieutenant Li was full of anger, and as he walked, the tears in his eyes could no longer be contained, and he kept flowing out. Mixed with the blood on his cheeks that had not yet dried, it dripped drop by drop on the bluestone pavement stained red by warm blood. There were no more people in the city, and all of them were closed. Almost every outdoor area, there are soldiers in twos and threes.
These soldiers used to be brothers, but they belonged to different camps, but at this time, because of the different intentions of one person, they had to fight in different rooms.
The Zhan Qi dancing with the wind shook but did not fall, but it had been pierced and burned, and the word "wine" could not be seen clearly. The long street, which was still bustling just now, is now full of devastation. It can be imagined how tragic the battle was just now, and how tragic the battle just now was.
At this moment, Huang Wanli suddenly wanted to cry, and he sounded the poem that Du Fu once wrote, "You don't see, Qinghai head, no one collects the white bones in ancient times, the new ghosts are annoyed and the old ghosts are crying, and the sky is cloudy and rainy!" ”
He didn't have the same experience as Li Chun, this captain who had been through strong winds and waves, was numb to everything in front of him. And his story has just begun......
The raging flames of war disturbed the irrepressible smoke that rose all over the city. The afterglow of the setting sun did not help, and began to retreat from the town that had been reflected countless times. The night appeared without the slightest mercy, tearing off the last vestment of the setting sun, and then devouring it completely.
The bloody breath began to rise after the heat subsided, and then slowly fell again, this smell stimulated Huang Wanli and Chen Asan's snorts, making them a little breathless.
Captain Li's knife was still tugging on the bluestone slab, as if he didn't want to mention it, or he was about to cut off a human head as soon as he mentioned it.
In the attic not far away, the flag was torn by the wind. It's just that it has long lost its former glory, and only a broken and ragged body remains, which seems to fall in an instant. In the alleys of the city, every step will see the severed limbs and stump arms, as if they were still staying on the owner just now, and at this moment they can only lie here helplessly, not knowing when they will be devoured by wild dogs and vicious cats.
Not far away, firelight began to burst out again, and the smell of blood and sweat in the air filled each other, becoming more and more pungent and unpleasant. But Captain Li was unaware of it, looking depressed. Out of nowhere, a group of city defense garrisons suddenly appeared, and Huang Wanli saw the person in charge, and was about to greet him, when he was frightened by a cold arrow.
Without saying a word, the garrison rushed towards a few people, and the next moment they were about to break their bodies into pieces.
Lieutenant Li suddenly regained his senses, hurried to meet him, and cut off the waist of the garrison that had come to the front. In the middle of this rush, Captain Li's already dry cheeks were once again soaked with warm blood. But he didn't have time to wipe it, but raised his knife to resist, raised his foot and kicked the other person to the ground. He slashed to the side and struck the other man on the shoulder.
Taking advantage of this moment, he turned around and shouted viciously: "If you don't want to die, just hurry up." ”
Where have these two stunned young men experienced such a bloody scene, and what happened just now still haunted their hearts, making them feel palpitations. But at this time, life and death are instantaneous, where can they be allowed to retreat at all.
Immediately with a loud roar, Huang Wanli rushed forward quickly, and cut off the head of the city defense guard who was pressed by Captain Li on the shoulder, and the blood gushing out of his neck made Huang Wanli stunned on the spot. Lieutenant Li bent sideways to the left side, and with his horizontal sword in front, he blocked the ferocious attack of another city defense garrison.
Then he hugged Huang Wanli's waist, dragged him to the wall, and said with a breath: "Looking for death?" ”
Before the words fell, the blade had arrived. The two horizontal knives slashed towards the necks of the two people in unison, and Chen Asan bypassed from behind at this time, kicked over one of them with one kick, and raised the knife to the other.
But before he could rejoice, a cold glow came out of his chest, with a little blood, and he immediately took it back. Chen Asan completed the first and last murder in his life.
He covered his chest and fell helplessly in a pool of blood, and several people rushed up behind him, stabbing him into pieces. Huang Wanli will never forget Chen Asan's eyes before he died, which was a kind of thirst for life and despair of death.
The fight is still ongoing......
Those people didn't stay too long on Chen Asan's corpse, and they were about to rush towards Huang Wanli. But at this time, Huang Wanli's face was already full of anger, his eyes were bloodshot, he picked up Chen Asan's horizontal knife, and rushed towards those people.
He is not a reckless man, and he has a bit of martial arts background. Although he was furious at this time, he was not as stunned as he was just now, and there was only one thought in his heart, which was to kill this group of people as soon as possible.
Captain Li also stood up, unconsciously touched his waist, and at some point he had been pulled out of a big hole, and blood flowed, but he did not hesitate at all, and also joined the battle.
When the night finally fell, it was already pitch black in the city, and the two of them gasped back to back, and they invariably raised their heads in the direction of the town guard's mansion, looking at the sky-rushing fire, and the sound of slashing one after another.
They stood up again with great difficulty, and walked towards the firelight without hesitation......
…………
When the old yellow head talked about this, he didn't continue. He just rubbed his eyes vigorously, as if the memory just now made his eyes a little sour. Luo Xiu asked inappropriately, "Old Yellow Head, didn't you talk about this taste?" ”
The old yellow head had already taken out the cigarette stick at this time, knocked it heavily on Luo Xiu's head, and said a little heavily: "The matter of the original blood moss this day was told to me by Captain Li later. It's just that the battle of Rucheng was sealed in everyone's hearts and didn't say a word. ”
Hades gently patted the old yellow man on the shoulder, motioning for him to continue looking at everything in that scene. At this time, the white-clothed priests had already disposed of the unconscious woman, and there was a slight tremor in front of them with the heart that had just been taken out.
The three of them saw that the old yellow man's hand unconsciously began to clench, as if he wanted to make a move.
But until the white-clothed priests came to a deep pit, the old yellow head still didn't make a move, but said softly: "Keep watching, it's more interesting to follow......
