On the night of the fifth day of the turmoil in the capital, a group of samurai in armor were quietly heading from different roads in the direction of the Mingde Gate and the Nanjun Mansion, and among them, the leader of the group was a woman riding a tall horse and wearing ochre-red armor.

The bright armor reflects the moonlight in the sky, the sound of rapid steps and the sound of the collision of the armor breaks the silence in the capital, under the guidance of the lighting without torches, with the bright moonlight of the Zhang family, the Lu family, and the Shangguan family, the three big surnames, together with other large and medium-sized families such as the Gongsun family, the Xu family, the Xie family and other families, will make a military action to change the situation tonight.

However, it was impossible for the movements of so many people to be carried out without Dong Cunren knowing, and when the soldiers of the Lu family and the Zhang family approached the city gate, they were finally discovered.

The soldiers in charge of the guard finally spotted a large number of troops without torches, and shouted: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Everyone get up and prepare...... Not. ”

The soldier in charge of the guard was shot in the head by an arrow and fell from the city, and Lu Zhan would recognize this as the archer of the Qin State if he was here.

However, the shouts of the sentries still worked, and one after another, at the urging of the officers, the soldiers of the Confederate army put on their armor, picked up broadswords and spears, and began to organize defenses. The soldiers of the family gate shouted and rushed towards the city gate, and the soldiers of the southern army guarding the gate also began to form a defensive formation.

Zhang Yu, who was riding on a horse, shouted: "Defeat them in one go, the archers release!"

Accompanied by the surging soldiers rushing towards the city gate, there was a rain of swords like flying locusts, and the soldiers of the southern army who had no time to raise their shields and put on their armor fell to the ground one after another, and the sound of wailing spread throughout the Mingde Gate.

In the face of the soldiers rushing towards the city gate like a tide, the commander of the Southern Army also issued an order to release arrows, but the elite soldiers in armor who rushed in front of them only left shallow dents on the surface of the armor. The archers standing on the walls were eliminated by the archers at a given point.

Originally, the southern army was caught off guard, and the soldiers lacked training and had no fighting spirit, and they were about to be attacked by the government soldiers of the family.

Seeing that he was about to succeed, Zhang Yu ordered his subordinates to put up the big red lantern, which was the signal that he sent someone to sneak out of the city quietly outside the city and agreed with Lu Zhan a few days ago, and the big red lantern rose to mean that Zhang Yu's side succeeded in seizing the city gate.

Lu Zhan, who was outside the city, saw the red lantern slowly rising, and his heart was overjoyed, sure enough, she was a strange woman in the world, and she was worthy of being a woman who fell in love with my Lu Zhan.

A group of black-clothed men stood at the gate of the city with hard crossbows and shot at the soldiers who were charging forward in strong armor, and the crossbow arrows sent out by the powerful crossbow instantly knocked down a large number of government soldiers.

Just when Zhang Yu was stunned by these black-clothed men with crossbows who came out of nowhere, countless torches lit up from around, and under the reflection of the firelight, they were the soldiers of the Southern Army, and what surprised Zhang Yu even more was that most of the archers on his side were shot down by bows and arrows from nowhere. Originally, there were not many voices, but the sudden decrease of more than half made Zhang Yu even more frightened.

There were a large number of elite reinforcements wearing the armor of the Southern Army to the gate of the city, and with the crossbows, they stubbornly blocked the soldiers of the family. The soldiers of the Southern Army around began to surround the soldiers of the family in an encirclement posture.

"These people who have reinforced to the city gate are not like ordinary soldiers of the Southern Army, they are either Dong Cunren's descendants or government soldiers of other families, otherwise they would not work so hard." The general next to Zhang Yu said to Zhang Yu.

Looking at the battle situation that was gradually getting out of control, Zhang Yu was very anxious in his heart, and when he heard what the family general said, Zhang Yu's mind quickly worked. Is there any other family in this capital that can send elite archers to deal with the sound shooters, and can also mobilize such an elite group of dead soldiers. Could it be the Tang family that has always been hidden.

The elites of the families who took the lead finally carried the crossbow and rushed to the city gate, and they fought with the elites who were ready to attack and wore the armor of the Southern Army. One second, a soldier of a family just swung a knife at the enemy's throat, and the next second he was pierced by a spear, and a stream of blood gushed out from the wound.

Zhang Yu was suddenly pounced on by his subordinates, and when he came back to his senses, he found that there were more than a dozen sharp arrows on his original position.

"Miss, these should be the eagle eyes raised by the legendary Tang family. I thought it was a legend, but I didn't expect it to be a fact. Zhang Yu's family general said with palpitations.

The northern army outside the city was eager to rush in as soon as the city gate was opened, but Lu Zhan, who was waiting outside the city, found that the red lantern had obviously been raised, but the city gate was still not opened, and the sound of fighting from the direction of the city gate became louder and louder.

This is not a good phenomenon, Lu Zhan said to Wen Qianhu beside him: "My lord, I request that the city be attacked immediately to deal with the brothers in the city." Lu Zhan's words were filled with great anxiety.

"Liu Qianhu, how about you and my men and horses attacking the city together?" Wen Qianhu also noticed that something was wrong, and said to Liu Qianhu beside him.

Thousands of soldiers of the Northern Army immediately set up siege ladders and began to prepare for the siege, but at this moment, Lu Zhan couldn't sit still.

"Chen Zhuang summoned our brothers from the Lu family to attack the city with me." Lu Zhan's anxious tone was firm.

Hearing this, Chen Zhuang was anxious and hurriedly said: "A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Young master, you still don't want to take such a big risk. ”

"My woman is in the city, is this reason enough!" Lu Zhan said almost in a roaring manner.

The Lu family led by Chen Zhuang thought that he was talking about Xiao Yezi, and the soldiers of the Northern Army who were present thought that he was talking about the five princesses, and only Xu Hao knew that the woman Lu Zhan was talking about was Zhang Yu.

Lu Zhan cleared his throat and said: "The first 500 people who climbed the city wall first tonight will each have 10 taels of silver, and the first 1,000 people will have 5 taels of silver each.

After saying that, Lu Zhan took Chen Zhuang and his gang to join the siege team, and the soldiers who set off first also heard Lu Zhan's reward. Under the temptation of profit, they all looked at the city wall with fanatical eyes.

Zhang Yu, who was called his own woman by Lu Zhan, no longer knew how many people had died near him, and everywhere he looked, it was like Shura hell.

Between the swords and swords, countless hot-blooded men fell to the ground and never got up again. The Southern Army, which was originally weak, strangled the soldiers of the family step by step with the cooperation of the black-clothed soldiers. Although the soldiers of the family are elite, the number is too small, and they also divide their troops to attack the Southern Army Office.

"I have eaten the grain of the Zhang family for decades, and I will return this life to the Zhang family today."

"Well said, I have also been raised by the Lu family for more than ten years, it's time to work hard! Brothers, fight to the death! ”

The soldiers of the family broke out with tenacious combat effectiveness in a desperate situation, like a lonely boat struggling to survive in the torrential rain of the Southern Army. Zhang Yu didn't know when a bloody hole was cut out of his body, Zhang Yu covered the wound and supported himself with a spear to prevent himself from falling.

Zhang Yu gasped and looked at the city tower with a wry smile, Lu fool, it seems that the two of us can no longer see each other in this life, so let the fifth princess continue to take care of you for me. There are fewer and fewer soldiers beside him, perhaps knowing that death is approaching, Zhang Yu looked at the city tower in despair, and with unrealistic fantasies about whether his intended person would appear to save him.
