284 Emperor's Critical Strike!

With the center of gravity of the Wu army's siege, it turned to the West City Gate, and more than ten miscellaneous battalions went to the West City Gate. wants to gather superior forces and break through the west gate of Danyang City in one fell swoop.

On the slope battlefield of the south gate of Danyang, only a battalion of 10,000 elite infantry of the Wu army was left, still fighting with the heavy pikemen of the imperial court.

Because the advances of the two armies were completely intertwined, the Wu army did not dare to retreat easily, and once they turned around and fled, they would be pursued by the imperial army and fall into defeat.

Fifty trebuchets and fifty ladders, in the confrontation with hundreds of small steel cannons, have been beaten into a ruin of wood, and there is no way to fight back.

The Wu army, an elite infantry battalion of 10,000 people, has lost long-range support.

To put it bluntly, they have been abandoned by King Wu and used to contain the 10,000-strong battalion of heavy pikemen and artillery of the defending army.

"All the small steel cannons, aimed at the center of the 10,000-strong infantry battalion of the Wu army."

Chu Tianxiu shouted.

"Boom~!"

Hundreds of small steel cannons fell into the infantry camp of the Wu army.

The powerful small steel cannon can fly more than a dozen Wu soldiers with one cannon. Hundreds of small steel cannons fell at the same time, creating a large bloody hole in the center of the Wu army's camp, and thousands of Wu army soldiers fell.

The power of terror destroyed their iron armor and will to fight.

This battalion of 10,000 elite infantry finally collapsed.

They fought with the heavy infantry pikemen of the imperial court for half an hour, but they only lost more than 1,500 people, and the casualties on both sides were about the same.

However, this round of shelling killed and wounded so many soldiers.

How can it be sustained?!

The remaining 7,000 elite infantry soldiers of the Wu army abandoned the battle and fled to the west gate to join the main force of the Wu army.

"Three thousand Danyang musketeers, support the West City Gate! Hit it from the city walls. ”

"10,000 pikemen, back to the city. Block the main street from inside the city, and once the Wu army breaks through into the city, fight them in the city! ”

"This slope wooden frame, blow it up!"

Chu Tianxiu didn't dare to relax, and immediately took people to the West Gate to support.

The Wu army mainly attacked the West City Gate.

Now there is a section of the city wall in the west gate that is occupied by the warriors of the Wu army, which is already quite dangerous.

...

Simon.

The battle was fierce.

The Danyang soldiers were storming, trying to recapture the city walls.

More than 200 warriors and thousands of elite soldiers of the Wu army on the city wall are still holding on to a section of the city wall dozens of zhang long.

Outside the city, tens of thousands of elite infantry under the command of Wu Jun climbed ladders and desperately climbed to the top of the city. From the city, attack the three thousand Danyang musketeers led by Li Kangnian.

Under their control, Li Kangnian's 3,000-strong Danyang musketeer force was somewhat overstretched, and it was difficult to attack further, and even had to retreat.

Wu's 20,000 light cavalry and two miscellaneous battalions watched from below the city, and as soon as the elite infantry retreated, they rushed up.

Many ministers and generals of Wu watched the battle nervously under the city.

"Quick, take the city!"

Xiang Xian's eyes were red and he roared.

"This victory or defeat is all here!"

Wu Wang Xiangbi's eyes flashed with a fine light, and he quickly calculated.

It only takes half an hour for him to completely capture the West City Gate.

Before it gets dark, take this Danyang City.

Although he paid a huge price for this, with Danyang City, he could receive more than a dozen princes from Jiangbei to cross the river. Reinforcements and food and grass will continue to come. It is enough to destroy Jinling City.

Suddenly.

In the noisy battlefield fighting, Wu Wang Xiang Bi felt that the ground was shaking, as if tens of thousands of war horses were galloping, causing a vibration.

The 20,000 light cavalry of the Wu army were waiting under the city and did not run.

The 20,000 cavalry of Danyang City were on standby in the city, and the city gate was blocked by a large pile of mud and sand and horse rejection chores, and they couldn't get out of the city for a while... Even if they go out of the city, the disparity between the forces of the two sides is meaningless, and the Danyang cavalry is just sent to death.

Where did the cavalry come from?

King Wu and the generals looked back one after another.

"Where?"

"Whose army?"

They were surprised to see a large army of cavalry in dark green armor coming towards their hearts.

This cavalry was all the same, with as many as five cavalry battalions of 10,000 people.

"Imperial ~ Imperial Forest Army!"

Wu Wang Xiang Bi swallowed his throat and felt extremely dry.

50,000 Imperial Forest Army, elite cavalry!

Guarding the palace of Jinling City, the most elite cavalry of the Great Chu Dynasty, led by the sons of the nobles of the gate lords, and the cavalry who have fought for three years on the border can join the Royal Forest Army. Dismount to fight on foot, and mount to mount to shoot.

The last 50,000 strongest elite soldiers in the Jinling Imperial Capital have been sent!

At this critical time, if the 50,000 Imperial Forest Army stabbed him in the back of the heart, the entire Wu army of more than 100,000 troops would collapse.

"That banner is the dragon flag! ... Emperor, the dragon banner of the imperial expedition! ”

"Father! The emperor is here, how is it good?! ”

The son of the world, Xiang Xian's eyes were horrified.

The generals' minds were all confused.

They didn't expect that Emperor Xiang Yanran would appear at this juncture.

The emperor personally marched and led the only 50,000 imperial forest troops in the imperial capital of Jinling to go on the expedition. The imperial capital, don't care? Aren't you afraid that the princes of Jiangbei will go south and take the opportunity to capture the imperial capital?

"Panic what!"

Wu Wang Xiang Bi roared angrily: "It's just in time, this king is about to replace him." His emperor Lao'er is staying in Jinling City, and this king can't kill him. He dares to come out, and this king will take his head! ”

There was no way back for him.

Two of his elite infantry were thrown into battle.

There was only a large battalion of miscellaneous soldiers left, and they couldn't withstand the impact of the Royal Forest Army at all.

In addition to facing a head-on battle, it is a dead end.

Xiang Bi grabbed a spear of eight snake spears in his hand, and shouted at the two 10,000-strong cavalry battalions of the Wu army, "Cavalry battalion, come with this king!" Kill the dog emperor, and this king will ascend the throne and become the emperor! ”

"Kill!"

The two 10,000-strong battalions of the Wu army erupted in unison.

Wu Wang Xiang Bi suddenly clamped his horse under his crotch, led 20,000 Wu cavalry, and brazenly rushed to the opposite 50,000 imperial forest army.

"Kill ——!"

In a moment, two huge cavalry forces collided directly with each other, and the people turned on their backs.

Wu Wang Xiang Bi saw at a glance the emperor Xiang Yanran riding a tall horse in the Imperial Forest Army.

This emperor Xiang Yanran is also a belligerent wonder, as an emperor, he often can't help but put himself in danger, insisting on learning from Emperor Taizu Xiang Yu, fighting on the battlefield, and beheading the horse.

Wu Wang Xiang Bi stabbed with a spear.

was blocked by Xiang Yanran's sword.

The two fought for ten rounds, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner.

"Kill the emperor, a reward of 1,000 taels, and make the king!"

Wu Wang Xiang Bi roared angrily to the left and right.

"Kill the rebels, cut down the king of Wu Xiang Bi, a bounty of a thousand taels, and make a marquis!"

Xiang Yanran drank.

"Phew, you are a dog emperor, the head of this king is worthy of a marquis?"

"Kill the emperor to be crowned a prince, kill you a prince and make a marquis, and you can't lose it? Eat me with a knife! ”

Xiang Yanran brandished the saber and slashed over.

Wu Wang Xiang Bi fought hard.

He didn't expect that Xiang Yanran, the pampered emperor in the deep palace, would have a terrifying force value.

Xiang Yu's sons and grandsons, are they all born with genetics and can fight?

He Xiang Bi is a famous general of Da Chu, so he can naturally stop Xiang Yanran.

But the cavalry generals under him couldn't stop it.

The combat effectiveness of the Imperial Forest Army was too fierce and too strong, as much as double the number of troops, interspersed with the cavalry camp of the Wu army, and even more of the 20,000 cavalry of the Wu army were beaten one by one.

Wu Wang Xiang Bi looked back and saw that the two 10,000-strong cavalry battalions of the Wu army were all messy by the Royal Forest Army.

His mind was disillusioned.

Xiang Yanran is so capable of fighting, and there is still a group of tiger and wolf soldiers around him who have not yet made a move, waiting to save the emperor at any time.

Can't kill!

Defeated!

Xiang Bi, the king of Wu, pulled out his horse and fled with a group of personal cavalry.

Of the 20,000 cavalry battalion of the Wu army, only two or three thousand light cavalry escaped with Xiang Bi.

The tide is over.

I can't take care of those miscellaneous battalions.

Those miscellaneous battalions were all a group of local chickens and dogs, and when they saw the 50,000 Imperial Forest Army coming, they had already fled from the wind and collapsed.

A group of peasants, who lost their swords and hid in their hometowns, would not really chase them.

Xiang Bi, the king of Wu, Xiang Xian, the son of the family, dozens of ministers, and a group of generals fled on horseback with a disgraced face, all the way to the south.

They fled in such a hurry that they didn't have time to discern their direction, so they rushed left and right and fled to a desolate place, not knowing where they were.

But I saw that it was a rushing river.

When they came to the riverside, there were less than a hundred of them left. The rest of the Wu cavalry... I'm afraid they all fled.

"It's over!"

"It's by the big river, I'm afraid it's between Danyang and Jinling City. Along the way, there must be soldiers and horses chasing and killing the imperial court everywhere. ”

"That's it, this king is defeated, and the only one is dead. Don't work for the emperor's old man, this king will throw himself into the river! If you have followed this king for many years, the emperor will definitely not spare you! Let's hit the road together! ”

Xiang Bi couldn't help but be discouraged.

The ministers and generals wept bitterly one by one, holding hands in twos and threes, and walked towards the river.

"Father... The water is too cold! Erchen, I don't want to die! ”

Xiang Xian cried.
