The distance of more than 100 steps was fleeting, and Chen Cheng knocked several retreating infantrymen away, and suddenly appeared in front of the military formation with smoke and dust all over his body.

The cavalry cruising on both sides rushed up, and Chen Cheng raised his shield to block the assassination on the left. The spear in his right hand was in a hurry, and the tip of the spear pierced through the iron armor, bringing out a large canopy of blood when he pulled it out. Several horsemen bent their bows and shot at him, but the arrows all fell behind the horses.

He Jin heard the clamor of the soldiers, stood up, and saw a ball of flame rushing towards him. He was taken aback, and when he looked closely, where was the flame? But it's a fiery war horse. The horse was very strong, five feet tall at the shoulders, taller than any of the best horses he had ever seen, and its mane fluttered in the wind as if it were a flame.

The knight on horseback held a shield in his left hand and a gun in his right hand, and his eyes were fixed on He Jin under the umbrella.

Seeing Chen Cheng coming on horseback, the soldiers of the infantry battalion in front of He Jin immediately spread out to both sides, preparing to block the road tightly, and pointed their weapons diagonally forward, making a defensive gesture. The cavalry assault is very terrifying, but as long as the will to fight is strong enough, the heavy infantry with long arms will not fall behind in a head-on confrontation.

If someone dares to bump into it, although it can knock over the armor soldiers in the front two rows, it will definitely be stabbed into a sieve by the dense heavy halberds. The road was blocked, but Chen Cheng did not mean to slow down the horse's speed, but urged Gollum to run faster. The distance of dozens of paces was left behind in an instant, and Gollum galloped to a position two feet in front of the heavy infantry, and jumped up suddenly.

"Ahh

In the exclamation of the onlookers, the fiery red figure swept across the heads of the soldiers of the infantry battalion, and the front hooves landed heavily on the ground of the bluestone slab, making a crisp sound. Now there are only a few people left between him and He Jin.

He Jin was shocked and reached out to touch his waist. The man in the car screamed, and pounced on the tip of the gun. There was a soft "poof" sound, and the spear pierced through his chest and out of his back. He Jin had already drawn his sword in his hand, turned sideways to avoid it, and then slashed at the spear with both hands in his hand.

"Poof", the sword slashed at the barrel of the gun, but only a white mark appeared on the barrel of the gun, and it was not cut off as He Jin thought.

"How is this possible?"

He Jin was shocked and sat in the car. Chen Cheng reined in the war horse, turned around for half a circle, and shot again.

The spear stabbed with a whistling sound, and He Jin clenched the hilt of the sword with both hands, but this well-tempered sword could not give him any sense of security now. In the midst of the panic, his body shook suddenly, and the soldiers on the side threw him to him, and both fell out of the carriage. The spear pierced the crosswood of the carriage, and with a muffled "bang", the crossbar made of iron birch suddenly shattered, and sawdust shot out in all directions.

The personal soldiers dragged He Jin to the back desperately, dozens of infantry rushed up, and the cavalry in the rear also rushed up.

Chen Cheng rushed forward and took another ten steps, killing seven people. He Jin's personal soldiers screamed and pounced, and in an instant, several people fell down screaming, and the soldiers in the rear were fearless, one after another. A few pro-soldiers threw away their blades and went directly to the horse's legs. Gollum knocked over several people in quick succession, but his speed had slowed down.

"Dang!"

The galloping cavalry of the Northern Army finally caught up, and the spear stabbed Chen Cheng in the back with the speed of his horse. The mount attack was so powerful that the spear broke through the double armor and snapped through his body. Chen Cheng shouted, threw his shield, pulled out his broken spear with his backhand, and threw it at the stunned enemy.

The bloody spear roared out and struck the enemy in the face, knocking them off their horses. However, it is easy to kill an enemy, and he can still kill hundreds of people around him in an instant, can he? Farther away, thousands of foot riders were shouting and rushing towards them.

He looked around, sighed, and retreated to the side. He put away his spear, picked up the sunset bow, and fired an arrow at He Jin, who was heavily protected by his own soldiers. The bowstring shook, and the heavy halberd soldier thirty paces away fell in response. The arrow pierced through his armor and sank into the chest of the man behind him.

He Jin was splashed with blood, and with palpitations, he pushed away the limp soldier in front of him, and said angrily: "Catch him for me!" The reward for the dead is 10,000 taels of gold, and the reward for the living is doubled! ”

But Chen Cheng had already changed direction and rushed to the Vermilion Bird Gate. Yuan Shu once served as a captain of the Changshui Battalion, and he was often lawless when he was in office, so he was called "Yuan Changshui, a ghost in the road". After throwing all his soldiers and horses under the walls of the palace, he moved to the Changshui camp. At this time, when he saw Chen Cheng raiding the general's car, he immediately shouted loudly: "Give it to me!" ”

The Hu cavalry of the Changshui camp were already angry that their comrades were killed, and after hearing the orders of He Jin and Yuan Shu, they immediately rushed forward on horseback. However, by the time they lifted the horse, Chen Cheng had already gone far.

He fought out of the White Tiger Gate, made a big circle, and killed near the Vermilion Bird Gate. The commander outside the Suzaku Gate is the Marquis He Hao of the Northern Army, he is a famous man in the world, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are good friends, and once praised "Yingchuan Xun Yu, Wang Zuo's vessel". Seeing Chen Cheng rushing over on horseback, although He Hao had not yet received the news from the White Tiger Gate, he immediately sent cavalry to block it.

Facing the oncoming cavalry of the Northern Army, Chen Cheng drew his bow and shot, fired three arrows, killed three people, and then charged into battle with his spear, picked down two cavalrymen, and rushed straight to the Suzaku Gate.

He Hao was furious and ordered the cavalry to step forward and kill the enemy. The cavalry ignored the infantry who were still in disarray, knocked over countless comrades, and rushed towards the Suzaku Gate. Chen Cheng restrained his horse under the city, turned the horse sideways, and then used a five-stone strong bow to shoot wildly at the pursuing enemy.

Several horses in the gallop were hit by arrows in the chest, and their front hooves suddenly weakened, throwing the cavalry on horseback down. The soldiers at the head of the city also poked their heads out, and hundreds of bows and crossbows shot down on their heads and faces, killing dozens of the cavalry who rushed up. The others did not dare to continue to step forward, so they quickly turned their horses around and retreated.

He Hao pointed to Chen Cheng, who was retreating towards the half-open Vermilion Bird Gate, and asked, "Who is that person?" How brave can you be? ”

Xun You was recruited together with He Hao, and when he heard this, he said: "That person is the newly famous Yue cavalry captain, Julu Hou, and hussar general Chen Cheng. ”

The anger on He Hao's face gradually dissipated, stroked his beard, and said, "It turned out to be him!" No wonder they can treat tens of thousands of armies as if they were nothing! ”

Xun You said with a smile: "Even if you are as brave as an overlord, you will inevitably kill yourself." No matter how strong the enemy general is, he is just one person, how can he stop my tens of thousands of tigers? ”

He Hao bowed his head slightly and said, "What Gongda said is very true. ”

Xun Yu word Gongda, Yingchuan Yingyin people, Xun Yu's nephew.

Chen Cheng entered the city from the Vermilion Bird Gate, and he was very sorry in his heart. If He Jin is killed, things may turn around. But the assassination can never be repeated, and if the other side is on guard, there will be no chance today. Not to mention anything else, as long as He Jin ambushed the three hundred strong crossbowmen by his side, he would never dare to rush in.

He jumped off his horse, leaving Gollum to act under the walls. Yue Qi and the others who came to greet him were full of admiration, although he did not complete the planned goal, but he was killed in and out of the tens of thousands of troops outside the city, but he was looked at by all the people in the city.

The most admired thing in the army is the unparalleled hero, and his actions have raised the morale of the soldiers a little.

Chen Cheng smiled and showed that he was in his chest, and kept greeting the soldiers loudly. The morale was overwhelming, and although he knew that his action had failed, and he was almost unable to rush out because of the love war, others might not have thought of it so much.

As soon as he stepped into the city, an officer hurriedly walked over and brought bad news, "General, Beigong has fallen!" ”

This is really a house leak that has been rained overnight, and the leaky boat has encountered a head wind!

Chen Cheng lamented in his heart, but his face was impassive, and he asked, "Have the soldiers of Da Changqiu and Beigong withdrawn?" ”

The officer said: "We are retreating to this side through the re-road!" ”

Chen Cheng said: "Then let's go over and have a look." ”

When he rushed to Xuanwu Gate with more than a hundred soldiers, Zhao Zhong happened to take Liu Qian, the princess of Wannian, and walked down from the road in embarrassment. Seeing Chen Cheng, Zhao Zhong had a shy look on his face, and said with a shy face: "Juluhou, the old slave is incompetent, and he has lost the North Palace. ”

Chen Cheng's mood became a little worse, but a smile appeared on his face, and he said with a pleasant face: "Victory and defeat are commonplace, Da Changqiu doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

Zhao Zhong said with a bitter face: "The old slave was originally going to die, but thinking that the princess could not be damaged in the slightest, he escaped with a cheeky face." Our family will take the princess to ask the queen for guilt, and the matter here will be handed over to the Julu Hou. ”

He shouted to the armor soldiers who fled together: "You stay here, obey the dispatch of the Julu Hou, if there is the slightest disobedience, you don't need to do it Julu Hou, our family will tear you apart!" ”

Chen Cheng smiled and said, "Da Changqiu's words are heavy. ”

Zhao Zhong looked up to the sky and sighed, Liu Qian followed the side in the photo, not crying or making trouble, but just staring at everything around him with wide eyes. Although her eyes were full of panic, she said in a steady voice: "Julu Hou, is my father the emperor dead?" ”

Chen Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, the princess and Da Changqiu will go to the Jiade Palace, the queen and the queen mother are there." ”

The North Palace is bigger than the South Palace, although there are quite a few of them, but where are the soldiers and horses under the command of Zhang Rang Zhao Zhong who are comparable to Yue Qi? Even the hundreds of Xiyuan troops that Jian Shuo left in Nangong were more elite. The most important thing is that Zhao Zhong does not have effective generals, and talented people are ashamed to be in the company of eunuchs.

There are many eunuchs who dare to fight and kill, but there are very few generals who know how to arrange troops and know how to siege and defend the city. Jian Shuo can be counted as one, but now he is trapped in the barracks. So it is not surprising that Zhao Zhong was beaten and fled in embarrassment.

The Han army, which was the first to attack the North Palace, opened the city gate and let the follow-up soldiers and horses enter. These soldiers and horses are not the economic army of the imperial court, their combat effectiveness is slightly weaker, and the military discipline is far inferior. After attacking the North Palace, they killed people when they saw them, and when they saw the palace maid, they immediately pressed them on the ground, and took off their pants directly.

For a while, screams rang out in the entire North Palace, blood was splashed, and the women's cries shook the sky.

The soldiers who were broken were beaten and retreated, and those who fell behind were hacked to death. There were still two or three hundred armor soldiers who flocked to the tower of Suzaku Gate, but they were stuck and could not get out. The pursuers and armor fought bloody battles along the city, and both sides wore armor, which had a good protective effect on the ring-headed swords and arrows.

After a few minutes of fighting at the head of the city, the soldiers were killed and wounded a dozen people, and retreated to the city tower. The pursuers gave hot chase and followed in.
