Chapter 572: Hou Junji died

、、、、、、、、、、

After receiving the news that the camp was in danger, Wei Chi Jingde discussed with Qin Qiong for a while, and then sent out all the troops that could be mobilized. They were also desperate, determined to end the battle before dawn and take the entire Hejian County.

They ordered the troops to be divided into four divisions, led by Wei Chi Jingde, Qin Qiong, Song Jingang, and Guo Yi, and attacked from four directions: west of the city, east of the city, south of the city, and north of the city.

After half an hour's rest, the offensive suddenly intensified. Almost all of the troops were thrown into the battlefield in an effort to capture Hejian County in one fell swoop......

In Hejian County, when the final decisive battle between the two sides began, Li Jiancheng had already personally led the sneak attack troops and rushed to the gate of the Zhou army's camp.

He was less than a mile away from the Zhou army camp, and from this position, Li Jiancheng could already see the brightly lit golden tent in the Zhou army camp.

Li Jiancheng knew in his heart that the tent was Yuming's handsome tent.

At this time, Hou Jun gathered Fang Yu and reported: "Your Highness, your subordinates have learned from the scouts of the Zhou army who have just been captured that there are only more than 5,000 people in the Zhou army camp. Although they are all Yuming's most elite troops, Yulinwei, we are also all elite troops, and our strength is five times that of the enemy. The emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, Yuming, is absolutely invincible! ”

Li Jiancheng listened, nodded and said, "Hmm! That's a good point! As long as this person is captured, the Zhou army will inevitably collapse completely. We will become the heroes who create the foundation of Datang Wanshi! ”

Then, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and he said to Hou Junji: "General Hou, you first take 10,000 horses to attack in turns." When they came out of the camp and faced the attack of our army, they panicked, and tried to break through the wall and gate of the Zhou army's camp in one fell swoop, and enter their camp. Be sure to capture Yuming alive before dawn. ”

"Good!" When Hou Junji heard this, his eyes flashed, and he had long wanted to take revenge.

After getting the arrow, he hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Please wait for the good news from Hou, Your Highness!" ”

With that, Hou Junji carried a shiny axe, took a step, and led 10,000 infantry to rush towards the camp of the Zhou army with murderous spirits. These soldiers were all elite units of the Tang Army carefully selected by Li Jiancheng, and at this time, they were all armed with spears and shields, and their roars shook the sky, and the momentum was quite amazing.

At this moment, Yu Ming, Xu Shiji, Cheng Yanjin and others had already arrived at the gate of the camp, and saw the menacing Tang army rushing over, but they did not panic.

After the Tang soldiers entered the range of the trebuchet, Cheng Yanjin waved his hand down vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Throw fire bombs!" ”

"Tom, tom, tom!" A crockpot filled with oil and lit flew out of the trebuchet's spoon.

These fire bombs cut arcs through the night sky, and then smashed fiercely into the crowd of Tang troops.

"Boom, boom, boom!" As one by one the fire bombs fell to the ground, a cloud of fire instantly rose, and many of the Tang soldiers who were hit immediately caught fire and burned. Their screams resounded through the air, and their condition was horrible.

And these fires also exposed the location of the Tang soldiers, illuminating their figures very clearly.

"Shoot the arrows!" Yu Ming smiled slightly at this time and ordered loudly.

This is the reason why he has to fire fire bullets first, and then fire arrows to stop the enemy. Otherwise, without lighting, it would be difficult for archers to shoot at the enemy at night.

Just listen to the sound of the bowstring "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh", thousands of sharp arrows flew into the air from behind the fence at the same time, and the cold light of the arrows was particularly eye-catching in the dark night under the light of the fire.

The Tang soldiers who rushed to the front immediately let out a burst of screams and fell to the ground by arrows. They originally thought that when the Zhou army was suddenly attacked, they would be terrified and in a hurry. Your own army can kill the enemy by surprise. But they never expected that Zhou Jun remained calm from top to bottom, without any panicked behavior.

Although in the first round of salvos, the Tang army fell several people and suffered a big loss. But Hou Junji didn't care, if the Zhou army was defeated so easily, then Yuming would not have been known as the Great Sui Shuangbi back then, and he would not have beaten the Tang army so embarrassed in the previous field battle.

He raised his sword and shouted loudly, urging his subordinates to attack desperately. Under Hou Junji's strict orders, braving the dense rain of arrows, he soon advanced to the gate of the Zhou army's camp, and entered the short-range battle with the Zhou army guarding the camp.

At this time, the Yulin Guards, who had finished shooting arrows behind the fence, quickly folded their longbows and put them away, and then grabbed the spears and broadswords placed on the ground, preparing to engage in melee combat with the enemy.

At this moment, Cheng Yanjin was riding a tall and big Arab war horse and jumped out bravely.

He waved the Xuanhua axe in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty is looking at us now, and I will wait for the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty to move forward bravely and swear to ensure Your Majesty's safety!" ”

After saying that, Cheng Yanjin slapped his horse and rushed forward, holding two Xuanhua axes flying up and down, and where he passed, the Tang soldiers were cut down to the ground one after another. Although there were also a few Tang Army generals who wanted to rush up to compete with Cheng Yanjin, they were all cut off by one of their axes.

And those Yulin guards, seeing that their main general was so powerful, everyone cheered up, roared and rushed forward, and fought with the Tang soldiers twice their size!

Although the Yulin Guards served their lives, with the Tang Army soldiers frantically pouring into the camp. They gradually fell behind in numbers.

Cheng Yanjin was also surrounded by more than a dozen Tang Army officers. Although he slashed left and right, he was never able to break out of the encirclement.

And Hou Junji, the chief general of the Tang army, also saw that if Cheng Biting Jin could be killed, the morale of the Zhou army in front of him would be lost, and the camp could be broken.

So, Hou Junji also carried a big knife and quickly joined the battle group, he stared at Cheng Biting Jin, and the knife slashed towards Cheng Biting Jin's face, wanting to kill him as soon as possible.

At this time, Cheng Yanjin had to deal with Hou Junji and guard against the Tang soldiers who were constantly swarming around, and he was in danger for a while.

He already had multiple wounds on his body, and although most of the injuries were not serious, blood kept pouring out of the wounds. Little by little, his energy was consumed.

And Hou Junji, who has rich combat experience, obviously saw this, and brandished the big knife in his hand even more tricky, eager to put Cheng Yanjin to death in one fell swoop.

After swinging an axe and hacking to death a Tang Army officer, Cheng Biting Jin's left arm was caught off guard for a moment and was stabbed by a Tang Army lieutenant next to him. His arm immediately flowed with blood, and the Xuanhua Axe in his left hand suddenly fell to the ground.

Hou Junji was overjoyed when he saw this and thought it was a good opportunity. So he immediately swung a big knife and slashed at Cheng Biting Jin's neck viciously.

Seeing that Cheng Biting Jin was unavoidable, he was about to die at this knife, but he heard a shout like thunder: "The thief of the Tang Army, the general who dares to hurt me, today is the day of your life!" ”

Hearing this shout, Hou Junji was startled, and when he looked back, he saw that the person who came was a young military general in his twenties wearing white clothes and white armor, wearing a white cloak, and his eyes were like bright stars. He was charging at him with a cyan spear in his hand.

Hou Junji had also seen Yuming's portrait, so he naturally recognized it, this was the Great Zhou Emperor that His Royal Highness Li Jiancheng had always wanted him to capture.

"Hey, hey! If you can catch this Yuming! I've done a great job! Hou Junji said secretly in his heart.

However, at this moment, a roar like thunder sounded in mid-air: "Hou Junji!" Come on! ”

As he spoke, Yu Ming had already raised his spear, rode off the war horse, and rushed to Hou Junji's side like lightning and thunder.

Hou Junji was startled and hurriedly raised his knife to resist. But he didn't want his sword trick to be in the calculation of Yu Ming, who was like a good eye.

"Whoosh!" That shot was like a dragon going out to sea, cutting through the sky.

The spear is like a storm and lightning, devastating and indestructible.

Hou Junji subconsciously raised the big knife in front of him, and he had already sealed the horn that Yu Ming stabbed at his chest.

But when Yu Ming saw this, his expression was flat, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. He has raised the mental method of immortality to the point that even a giant monument will be penetrated by it, and his spear strength is not high, and Hou Junji, who is also a little careless in dealing with it, can resist it?

After a loud "dang", Hou Junji's big knife was suddenly knocked away by Yu Ming's spear. Then the tip of the spear in Yu Ming's hand was like a poisonous snake coming out of a hole, and it stabbed Hou Junji's throat like lightning, as fast as a meteor, and Hou Junji couldn't resist it at all.

"Poof!"

I saw a stream of blood spurting out of Hou Junji's mouth, and he fell straight from the horse. A bloody hole in his neck was the size of a bowl, and he was killed instantly.

The Tang Army officers who were besieging Cheng Biting Jin next to him had not yet woken up from the shock of the death of the main general, and Yu Ming had already shouted loudly and rushed into the crowd of enemy troops.

Liquan spear picks left and right stabs, flying up and down, guns and guns are like electricity, whirring wind.

Every shot is like a dragon out of a hole, flying like a cloud, which makes people tremble.

Every shot is a thunderbolt of lightning, and the wind and fire are like thunder, making it impossible to resist.

The officers of the Tang Army who surrounded Cheng Biting Jin fell down one after another, and there was no one under Yu Ming. In just a few moments, seven or eight of them had fallen, and the rest were even more frightened and trembling, and unconsciously retreated.

The soldiers of the Yulin Guard, seeing that His Majesty the Emperor personally raised their guns. And it is like a god descending to earth, unstoppable, and it is a morale shock.

They shouted excitedly, and the earth shook like thunder.

The Zhou army then rushed towards the enemy like a tiger descending from the mountain.

After the death of the main general Hou Junji, everyone in the Tang army was already frightened.

At this moment, they saw that the Zhou army was like a rainbow, and they killed it under the leadership of Yu Ming, all of them were like fierce gods and evil spirits, and they were all frightened.
