Chapter 15 is at stake

"Unified command of the whole army! Listen to me! The ministries do what they do! When you go back, be sure to make the final preparations, and in an hour, take the sound of the horn as a signal! Let's do it! Attack Luoyang! ”

With a wave of the Crow Military Division's token, it pointed directly at the imperial capital!

In the third year of the Mandate of Heaven, Shanxi, Hebei, Lu and Yu gathered under the city of Luoyang......

Everyone who participated in the war knew in their hearts that what they were writing was not only their own destiny, but also a dusty history.

Regardless of success or failure, this battle will go down in history.

The crow stood on a high earthen ram, closed his eyes, and gently supported the tall cloud crown with one hand and the other hand. "Take responsibility for the things before you die, why not be afraid of judging ...... after death"

Gao Cheng was wearing a golden helmet and gold armor, standing in front of him with a sword, without looking back, leaving a back, unable to see the expression, and just waved his hand: "You don't need to say anything, you know ......it in your heart."

Thank you so much...... The crow was very touched in his heart...... It's worth all these years of hard work......

"Isn't this the stage that Lonely dreams of?" Gao Cheng opened his arms and faced the imperial capital Luoyang, the majestic city wall, standing high above the army of 200,000. "Let's go down in history with Lone!"

It's like embracing the invisible wind and the future.

I've been waiting for this moment for a long time!

The corners of Gao Cheng's eyes were faintly shining with tears, I don't know whether he was moved or excited.

The ambitions and ambitions that have been accumulated in my heart for many years have finally come to this day.

The grand plan, today is the final step.

"Knowing your ambition and turning it into the ideal of Weichen is the reason to stand here...... crow habitually lifted his hat again, flicked his hand to unfold the map, and took out pen and ink in his sleeve.

After sketching the map, the crow took another look at the sky, carefully observing the shape of the clouds.

"Your Highness, a storm that will sweep the land is coming!"

"Everyone in the world calls Lone a cloud dragon, so let this rainstorm fall harder! Big enough to lift a dragon into the sky! Gao Cheng shouted at God. Crow military advisor Sima Jue listens to orders! Lone commands you: Take the world for Lone! ”

"Yes!" The crow lowered his head and chin his head, but his eyes were as sinister and cunning as a wolf, and with a wave of the sleeve of his right hand, the tip of his pen pointed directly at the north gate of Luoyang City.

Behind him, the neat infantry phalanx covered countless huge siege equipment, passing from the small left and right, although the distance was long, but the wind and dust still rolled up almost knocked the two out of thin air.

Each mechanism is like a wild combination of primitive wood and arrogant steel. These stones, carts, wells, crossbows, towers, ladders...... There are many names that don't know the purpose, and each one has been repeatedly verified and tested by the crow, and has been carefully improved for this battle.

The trumpet sounded!!

Drumming!!!

Offensive! Offensive! Offensive!!!

The well-trained soldiers raised their shields to assault, and everyone carried ladders on their shoulders and hid in the phalanx.

Arrows were fired in unison, mixed with flaming slings, and soared into the air!

The sturdy shirtless man, desperate to jump into the moat, fixed the pontoon bridge with his backbone.

The veil-covered rush went straight to the tall city gate!

The wire noose on the crossbow of the bed creaked, and three spears with thick bowls hung from it.

The armored war horse, impatient hooves, puffing in the nostrils.

The armor cloak wrapped around the general, standing on a horse, holding a large banner high.

The wings of the crow roll up the storm of war, knock on the majestic city walls, and trample the dignity of the capital under their feet!

Luoyang, Luoyang!

Luoyang !!

————————

It's too late to enter the palace to meet the saint! In Luoyang City, after sending his two daughters into the secret passage, Dugu took Yang Ying to the city tower as he wished, determined to resist stubbornly.

"Please two girls, take care of Xiaoling." Before leaving, Yang Ying only entrusted one sentence.

"Brother Shadow, I'm not leaving!" Xiao Ling was already able to walk on the ground, but his left arm could not be lifted yet. "I'm going to stay in the city with you to fight."

"Xiao Ling, listen well: Guanzhong will definitely send troops. Bring my mentor to meet me. Maybe you are the key to the success of this battle. Please! Yang Ying hinted with her eyes, asking her not to forget the plan to take the emperor out of the city and enter the customs. I'm not behind, I have to calm down and take care of the overall situation. ”

"But Brother Shadow, I can't do it alone!" Xiao Ling looked sad.

"You can do it alone, I believe in you." Yang Ying ran out of time.

Even if you're alone, you can do it.

Yang Ying has always believed so.

escaped with the two Dugu ladies and went to Tongguan to bring in rescuers.

It's all up to you.

And I'll be holding off until you come back.

Xiao Ling cried and was the last to go into the tunnel and follow behind Dugu Panruo.

Wipe your face with a sleeve and hold back your crying.

"Brother Shadow, you must hold on, wait for me to come back."

This time, it's my turn to save you.

Yang Ying watched Xiao Ling leave, and then returned to the horse and followed Dugu as he wished.

He was mentally prepared to defend the city and fight in the streets.

For some reason, at this time of crisis, I suddenly remembered my good friend Yuwen Go, and a stupid question he once asked: "You don't even have a family, what are you trying so hard for?" ”

Who says I don't have any relatives?

In my heart, there are two more dear relatives.

I willingly stood in front of them.

The unspoken answer at the time was actually only four words:

"But I want to die."

————————

The north gate tower, under the bombardment of various siege equipment, is as fragile as paper paste.

In the blink of an eye, it was destroyed, reduced to burning wood and masonry.

The loud sound was like an earthquake, and the strong and towering walls were like weeds swaying in the wind under the onslaught.

The wide moat, like a small ditch in front of the door, was overflowed by swarms of rebels in an instant.

There is a huge disparity in troops, and many means of defense are simply too late.

Although the Praetorian Guards stationed at the head of the city were still disciplined and fought back against the city in a uniform manner, the numerous guns, wood, stones, bows, arrows, guns and halberds seemed scattered and sparse in the face of the 200,000 rebellion.

And the soldiers in the first round of contact have basically all been killed.

Without bothering to place the corpses, the new reservists were put in their place.

Before the ladder caught up, there were already groups of Jinyang soldiers, who went forward one after another, killed at the foot of the city, gave up the weapons and shields in their hands, took off the shovel and pickaxe from behind, and dug frantically without dying.

"Pour oil! Set! "Dugu shook the flag as he wished.

Flames flowed down the pitch-black oil down the walls. There was a sea of fire under the city, and the screams continued.

"Draw water from the moat!" The crow ink feather fan waved.

Dozens of ladders are set up in the sea of fire, taking advantage of people's unpreparedness, as if bamboo shoots rise from the ground after the rain.

The boulders that had crossed the city walls had smashed the city near the north gate into ruins.

Fortunately, the people were evacuated a few days ago.

The soldiers who could defend the city suffered heavy casualties under the strong attack.

The rest are still struggling hard.

Yang Ying's navy blue treasure knife was unsheathed and was recognized.

"Hongming Treasure Knife!" One of the guards shouted.

"I am the Jingyang Bingfu Mo Qilin! Coming to war! Yang Ying threw himself into the battle group, parryed and cut down several enemy soldiers who had climbed the wall, and in the blink of an eye, he had cut down three cloud ladders from the city.

"The cavalry rushes back and forth to stop the rebellion from reaching the top!" Dugu, who was in silver armor and silver armor, put on a scarlet canopy as he wished, and personally led the cavalry.

"Listen to me, catapult salvo! Destroy the top floor of the wall! Destroy the horse road! The crow stood in front of Gao Cheng and held up the black fan high.

"Your Highness, please back away!" Seeing the raging war, Cui Xian hurriedly commanded the guards to wrap Gao Cheng with his body.

"Get out of the way!" Gao Cheng didn't move like a mountain, still standing with his sword on his hand, and shouted. "Don't worry about being lonely! All up! Unplug Luoyang! Kill Dugu as you wish! ”

Like locusts, the black pressure rose into the air, covering dozens of oil-soaked boulders, and flew straight towards the city.

"Jingyang's ink unicorn, today is your burial place!" The crow remembered the shame of losing the secret battle of Yueqilou, and his face was full of murder. "Today next year, I'll burn you more paper!"

More and more enemies reached the top of the city, and the officers and men in the initial battle were already suffering casualties.

Yang Ying saw thousands of arrows from the opposite side from a distance, and easily set up the two rebels as meat shields: "Crow military division, in order to win, you have to bother a lot!" I regret that I didn't find you in the moon building. If I get out alive, you scourge must be removed. ”

With several loud bangs in succession, the city wall was blasted out of a large gap in the shock.

"Reserve Team 2, start the repair work! Reserve a team, is there anything alive? Stand in front of the gap, don't back down! Dugu was knocked off the war horse as he wished, and he didn't care about the buzzing in his ears, endured his headache, got up and continued to command and order.

The Jinyang rebellion was also unwilling to give up this once-in-a-lifetime fighter, and swarmed to gather at the breach.

The two sides engaged in a strangulation.

When Yang Ying pushed away the rubble on his body, struggled to crawl out of the pile of corpses, and found that he had been shot down from the city, he snatched a war horse, grabbed two long lances, and rushed into the battle with a shout regardless of the blood stains on his face.

"Don't miss the opportunity! Kudigan! Quickly lead the troops to attack the gap! "The crow is also keenly aware of the city's break." Break into the city at all costs! ”

The herald's horn flag danced, the front army changed formation at the speed of light, splitting a passage, and a group of cavalry fought out from the rear column where they were hiding, and advanced all the way.

The leader of the general, dressed in plate armor and wrapped in a turban, waved a crane's beak Changge.

At the same time, two cannons rang out in the distance, in the east and west directions.

This is a signal agreed in advance, and several other soldiers and horses will respond at the same time.

For a time, Luoyang was in danger.

And the rain, too, just at the right time, fell gently, little by little, as if crying.
