Volume 1 Mountains and Rivers Change Hands Chapter 9 A Light Opens to the Sun 6
Geng Bingwen hurriedly ordered his own soldiers to go to investigate the situation, at this moment, the group of routs who followed behind Tyrant Zhao suddenly each held a knife and a gun, screamed, and entered the city, the head of the head was as big as a fight, the body was round, holding a big axe, slashing left and right, and cut down more than a dozen southern soldiers in a row, unstoppable, worthy of killing Geng Bingwen in front of him.
This person is Qiu Fu, the general under King Yan who was the commander of the guards in Yanshan at the time, and it was he who led the troops of Taizhou Wei and Shaoxing Wei as the vanguard, secretly following behind Tyrant Zhao, blending into Zhending City, and cutting the suspension bridge with a big axe.
When Geng Bingwen saw that the situation was urgent, he pulled the reins of Storm Zhao's mount and shouted, "Hurry up." The two horses galloped into the city, and Geng Bingwen shouted as he ran: "Close the city gate quickly." ”
The guards hurriedly closed the gates and erected the gates. Na Qiufu ran to the gate, picked up the big axe, and began to chop the gate. In two strokes, he saw that the gate of the city was about to be split open. At this critical juncture, Geng Bingwen had already run up to the city from the horse road and ordered the soldiers to release arrows into the urn city.
Suddenly, arrows rained down on the city, Qiu Fu and others were shot down dozens of people in an instant because of the camouflage of the rout, their clothes and armor were not neat, and they did not carry shields, and Qiu Fu himself was also hit by an arrow in his arm, so that he could not move the big axe, so he had to lead the crowd out of the city.
Suddenly, I heard the cannon outside the city, a team of military horses rushed to block Qiu Fu and others, and was a veteran general, who was tall and long-armed, broad-shouldered and broad-backed, with big shoulders and round waist, white beard and hair, and angry eyes, holding a long lance, pointing at Qiu Fu and others, and shouting to the team beside him: "Take down all these thieves for me." ”
The person who came was Gu Cheng, the governor of the right army, who was seventy years old at the time, and his majesty was still undiminished. Gu Cheng was burly and tall when he was young. It is also good at using a horse lance, and tattooing a green dragon tattoo on the body, so this person is called the nine-pattern dragon Gu Cheng, who was summoned to the command of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, and was selected as a personal soldier, and the cover is in and out. Once Taizu crossed the river, the boat ran aground on the beach, and the pursuers approached, Gu Cheng actually jumped into the water and carried the boat, so Taizu was saved.
Gu Chenghou followed Fu Youde to conquer Yunnan, served as a vanguard, and once stabbed hundreds of barbarians, and was powerful for a while. After that, he guarded Guizhou for 20 years and quelled hundreds of rebellions, all of which were admired by the barbarians.
Originally, when Hongwu was in the thirtieth year, Gu Cheng felt that he was too old to gallop the field, so he wrote to Taizu and asked him to return to the countryside. Taizu played on time, and he returned to Beijing, teased his grandson, and enjoyed his family in peace. Unexpectedly, King Yan raised troops, and no one was available in the court, so Gu Cheng went into battle again, and went out again with the veteran generals Geng Bingwen and Guo Ying.
Seeing this, Qiu Fu ordered his soldiers to gather in one place and form a circle, with spears facing outwards and short knives inside, desperately resisting.
The Taizhou Guards and Shaoxing Guards under his command had already deceived the Zhending Southern Army once and killed many soldiers defending the city, so the Southern Army soldiers hated them to the core, and rushed up wave after wave, eager to break them into pieces. Under the urging of Qiu Fu, these surrendered soldiers fought to the death and did not retreat, and they also knew that even if they surrendered again, they would never have any health, but they just hoped to support the moment when reinforcements arrived.
The two sides were fighting in the middle of the battle, and suddenly they heard the sound of horns all around, the dust rose in the distance, the sound of horses' hooves sounded like rolling thunder, thousands of troops and horses rushed like a tide, and the southern army battle formation, which was dominated by infantry, rushed to pieces.
Qiu Fu shouted in the middle of the formation: "Brothers, King Yan has come to save us, the big guy is killed." Fu led his troops to the city gate.
Geng Bingwen saw it in the city and urgently ordered the city gate to be closed. Wuding Marquis Guo Ying hurriedly said: "Gu Chengshang is fighting outside the city, how can he close the city gate?" ”
Geng Bingwen said: "I can't take care of this much, don't you see that this is the main force led by Prince Yan, a little later, it will really be unsafe." Guo Laosi, you go to the West Gate immediately, and order Li Jian to quickly withdraw to the city, if you break the horse, you and I can't afford it. ”
Li Jian, the former military governor, is the son-in-law of the seventh daughter of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, the eldest princess, who is a talent, and takes his father's position as the commander of the right guard of the horse.
Guo Ying is sixty-five years old at this moment, and he has long since lost the courage of the lieutenant Chi Jingde and has become cautious, so that he can escape the Lanyu case.
Geng Bingwen ordered the soldiers in the city to prepare more rolling wood and stones, bows and arrows, and set up artillery to prevent the Yan army from landing in the city.
He saw Qiu Fu leading his troops to rush across the drawbridge, so he ordered the cannon to fire, after a deafening dozen loud noises, the white smoke dissipated, and the two sides of the moat were lying all over the corpses of the soldiers, flesh and blood were flying, broken arms and stumps, all the eyes were touched, it was really miserable, even the suspension bridge more than a foot thick was blown up, which shows the power of the artillery.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Qiu Fu abandoned the defeated army, jumped into the moat alone and swam back to the opposite bank.
Gu Cheng under the city saw it, shouted happily, and the army's heart was lifted, he saw not far in front of him under the umbrella cover of Qingluo, immediately a person, with a long beard fluttering, recognized it was Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and couldn't help but cheer up, and said in his heart: "Capture the thief and capture the king first, if I catch the king of Yan today, I will definitely seal the marquis and seal the prince, the Danshu iron coupon, and the descendants of the descendants." ”
As soon as he thought of this, he took off his armor, bare his upper body, revealed the green dragon tattoo, shook the horse lance, roared, and led more than ten horsemen to kill King Yan.
When the guards around King Yan saw it, they hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, but they were knocked over a few times by Gu Chengli, and they were killed in the blink of an eye. Seeing that he was menacing, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, hurriedly turned his horse and wanted to leave, and Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Gaoyang County behind him, roared and said, "Don't hurt my father." The prancing horse came out and slashed at Gu Cheng. Latest
Gu Cheng raised his lance to greet him, and when there was a loud bang, the knife and gun touched, and sparks splashed everywhere. Zhu Gaoxu's arm was numb from the shock, and he said secretly: "This old guy's strength has not diminished back then." ”
When the two horses kicked by mistake, Gu Cheng shot another backhand, and Zhu Gaoxu couldn't dodge, but just lowered his body and lay on the horse's back.
The head of the gun was in the mirror of Zhu Gaoxu's back, and it was directly poked into the mirror surface, Zhu Gaoxu felt pain in his back, and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and he didn't dare to fight again, so he fled.
Gu Cheng didn't chase either, circled back to Malai, and rushed towards Zhu Di, the king of Yan.
Suddenly, there was a big chaos behind his team, and another Yan army iron cavalry arrived, the current one, more than fifty years old, black horse and black armor, tall and tall, like an iron tower, it was Zhang Yu, the general of the Yan army.
Gu Cheng had to give up King Yan, shoot the horse and dance the gun to fight Zhang Yu, the two swords and guns, fought for more than a dozen rounds, after all, Gu Cheng was more than seventy years old, all supported by a blood and energy, after a long time, his physical strength gradually became weak, his marksmanship was scattered, and he only had the ability to parry.
Suddenly a rope noose flew from behind him, and was on his head, and he was taken aback, and put his hands into the snare, and was about to break free, but as soon as the noose was collected, it became tighter and tighter, and finally tied his hands together, so that he could not move, and a strong force came, and he threw himself under the horse with a thud.
Gu Cheng's pro-army just wanted to come forward to rescue, but was caught up by Zhang Yu quickly, one by one, and his life was lost.
A round-headed and round-headed Mongolian man jumped off the horse, stepped forward, stepped on Gu Cheng's chest, took out his pocket knife, and looked at him with a smile. ”
--------------------------
When Guo Ying Pegasus arrived outside the West Gate, Li Jianzheng led the soldiers of the South Battalion to move to the north bank of the Hutuo River, and his foothold was not stable, and when he heard that he was going to enter the city again, he frowned and said: "Marquis Geng is old, and he is a little timid with his soldiers. ”
Guo Ying is not good at saying in front of him that you are a concubine and a jade body, and our two old brothers are afraid that something will happen to you, so they ordered you to enter the city. had no choice but to discredit Geng Bingwen and said: "Li Dudu, Geng Hou has always been good at defending and not attacking, he ordered you to enter the city because he wanted to stabilize his own position first, and then find an opportunity to counterattack." ”
Li Jian sneered: "As the so-called back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, a generation of new people replace the old ones. If Your Majesty takes me as the commander, I will take down the head of the swallow thief today. ”
Guo Ying had no choice but to laugh and say: "That's, that's, Geng Hou and I are both old, and after this battle, we will definitely return to our hometown and never go out again." ”
While the two were talking, a troop of cavalry, about a thousand, galloped from the west, dusty, rolling up their flags, and it was impossible to see who the men and horses were.
Li Jian was stunned and said to Guo Ying: "Guo Hou, where did this man come from?" ”
Guo Ying hesitated: "The old man doesn't know, is it from Shanxi?" ”
Li Jian shouted: "Shoot arrows, shoot the foot, don't order forward." His sergeants shot arrows into the sky, and the arrows fell in front of the cavalry horses, who knew that they ignored the warning, but sped up and rushed to the front of them, and suddenly opened the banner, it turned out to be the Yan army.
The southern army was in an uproar, not in time to line up, the cavalry of the Yan army passed through the formation like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, and killed in front of Li Jian, the first person, happy and majestic, with a dignified face, and a fierce look in his eyes, it was the general Zhu Neng, he rounded his arm, and with the power of Mount Tai, he slashed at Li Jian, Li Jian raised the knife to greet him, and with a bang, the two of them were similar in strength, and they shook the steel knife in their hands at the same time.
Zhu Neng kept moving, stretched out his right hand and said, "Bring it." The attendants immediately handed over a spear, and Zhu Neng immediately circled back his horse and ran towards Li Jian. When Li Jian saw Zhu Neng rushing over, he also followed his example, and stretched out his hand and said, "Take it." Unexpectedly, he took it empty, and the soldiers around him ran away at some point, and even Guo Ying, the Marquis of Wuding, disappeared.
Zhu Neng rushed to Li Jian's approach and stabbed Li Jian with a spear. That Li Jian was bare-handed, so he had to take the reins with him, turned back, and dodged the spear, ready to flee to Zhending City. Zhu Neng slapped the horse to catch up and stabbed the horse's buttocks. The horse was in pain, snorted, and the man stood up, Li Jian was caught off guard, did not grasp the reins, and was thrown off the horse, but unfortunately there was a big rock on the ground, he hit it straight up, and was suddenly hit and broke his thigh, the pain was unbearable, and he couldn't help tossing and turning, moaning.
Zhu Neng circled the horse, approached slowly, raised his spear, and was about to be careful of stabbing down, Li Jian saw this, raised his hand to block, and shouted loudly: "I am Li Jian, don't kill me." ”
