Chapter 68: Another Stalemate
Lu Yunzhi listened to Fang Qingze's words, and smiled, but he was even more puzzled: "Then why are you sighing." ”
"I feel as if I have a gap with Uncle Chao, although it is still the same on the surface recently, I am still worried that Uncle Chao will be prejudiced against me, you see that before Uncle Chao was sent by you to contact, every time he saw me, he was silent." Fang Qingze said with some embarrassment,
The leopard said to Tan Qing at this moment: "Tan Qing, how can you be the same as no one else, in fact, you provoked this matter." Tan Qing was thinking about Bai Yong in his mind, and he didn't hear the leopard speak absent-mindedly, but his eyes were empty and stunned, the leopard looked embarrassed, raised his voice and asked, "Tan Qing." Tan Qing paused and hurriedly said, "What's the matter, are you going to attack the city?" ”
Lu Yunzhi and Fang Qingze also looked at Tan Qing in unison, Fang Qingze said with a gloomy expression: "Let's talk about it, Tan Qing hadn't gotten acquainted with you and me at that time, in the small city on the northwest border, Uncle Chao was poisoned and fainted, you know this, his disciples and the mercenary corps I trained were also poisoned, after I saved my uncle, I couldn't save others, and I was worried that Gu worms would crawl and hurt people again, so"
"So the second brother, you ordered the bombardment of the small city, and all the disciples of the Iron Sword Sect and the mercenary legions, whether they were dead or not, were sacrificed in the sea of fire, yes or no." Lu Yunzhi said, Fang Qingze nodded, fell silent, and only raised his head after a long time and asked, "How do you know?" ”
Tan Qing continued at this moment: "I told Lu Yunzhi, I was worried that Brother Fang would be angry with me, so I asked Lu Yunzhi what I should do, just like what you asked today." Fang Qingze shook his head and replied to Tan Qing: "Actually, I also feel very painful, but I don't blame you, after all, at that time, each was its own master, and the situation forced you to blame." ”
"That's it." Lu Yunzhi said, Fang Qingze didn't quite understand what Lu Yunzhi meant, and looked puzzled, Lu Yunzhi continued: "At that time, you were also forced to make a helpless decision, and your uncle naturally won't blame you, but after all, you are a disciple who has followed him for many years, and it is normal to go south and north together like a relative, and it is normal to feel a little uncomfortable, and it will be fine after a while, because we are all a family, how can there be a reason to hold a grudge against our own family." Saying that, Lu Yunzhi looked at Fang Qingze, the leopard and Tan Qing,
The leopard said at this moment: "But then again, Fang Qingze, you are ruthless enough, after all, those are your own people, and you will not blink when you give the order to fire." Fang Qingze's face was embarrassed, and Lu Yunzhi said at this moment: "The matter is over, let's not mention it again, listen, the two sides are starting to attack the city, let's attack too." The crowd stopped talking about the estrangement, and rode their horses and whips towards Fuchengmen to kill,
The city has just quelled the threat of Gu poison and Gu worms, so the soldiers who were poisoned and injured or were poisoned by Gu worms crawled on their bodies for the second time, as many as more than 4,000 people, only three or four hundred people were rescued after rescue, and the rest were placed in the open space in the city and burned intensively, at this moment, the four gates on the north and south sides of the city were fiercely attacked, and the south of the city was a strong general led by Qu Xiangtian, with a strong team of excellent combat effectiveness and a large number of people, but what really gave the Ming army a headache was the Qinwang army led by Zhu Jianwen in the north of the city, Although the Qinwang army was frustrated in its attack last night and suffered heavy losses, there were fewer defenders in the north of the city, and the army was all fighting with Qu Xiangtian's department, and the chaos in the city had just experienced the persecution of Gu poison, and it was difficult to dispatch at this moment, so he was naturally caught off guard.
When Zhu saw and heard that the Desheng Gate was about to be breached, the five ugly veins led the crowd to support, which was barely held, and a large number of troops were involved twice, Yu Qian hurriedly organized the troops, calmly dispatched support, and the Ming army in the city was in order, but just when the pressure of the two-sided attack weakened, the Fucheng Gate in the west of the city, which was repaired overnight, was broken by Lu Yunzhi with the way of controlling qi, and Lu Yunzhi led the leopard's ghost eating clan and the qi master, as well as the specially trained warriors and Miao Gu Yixi, these people with strange skills were killed,
Under the leadership of Lu Yunzhi, this team like a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general went on a rampage, killing seven in and seven out in the capital, Yu Qian and the Lord of the Soul Vein led the rebels to lead the disciples to intercept it, but Lu Yunzhi's movement was extremely fast, and he was chaotic in the city, not to win but to disturb the Ming army,
The Ming army was miserable, the two sides were enemy, and there was Lu Yunzhi fighting back and forth in the city, so in addition to the defenders who should be, the rest of the people worked together to encircle and suppress Lu Yunzhi and others, and when they were about to form an encirclement, Lu Yunzhi led the crowd to kill out of Fuchengmen, and his subordinates took out the Divine Fire Flying Crow, and after igniting it, they kept putting it behind them, and the vicinity of Fuchengmen suddenly became a sea of fire,
Immediately afterwards, the south and north of Beijing also calmly retreated, the Ming army held the city and did not dare to attack and pursue, for fear of being ambushed by the enemy, the Ming army suffered heavy losses, the numerical advantage slowly decreased, if it were not for a solid city wall as a barrier, perhaps the number of casualties this time was more amazing,
Qu Xiangtian and others won a great victory, happily returned to the camp, such a big victory made everyone excited, the next day the two sides launched several tentative attacks on each other, the results were fruitless, both sides suffered casualties, on the fourth day, the artillery made by Fang Qingze arrived, and then a steady stream of ammunition was sent, the sound of artillery has never stopped since then, Yu Qian and others used ghosts as shields to defend against the bombardment of ammunition, the shells were consumed very quickly, Fang Qingze ordered people to make speed, has been unable to catch up with the number used, And under the search of Yu Qian and many rebel heaven and earth people, there were no ghosts available near the capital for hundreds of miles, and the battle between the two sides once again reached a stalemate.
Half a month later, the battle situation has not improved, Qin Rufeng was injured by a fire gun, Guangliang was injured by an arrow, Qu Xiangtian and others also had several large and small wounds on their bodies, and tens of thousands of soldiers were killed and wounded, and the Ming army was roughly like this, not to mention that the damage to the army was also tragic and abnormal, just Yu Qian and other commanders were also wrapped in sackcloth, and the sackcloth was stained with blood,
Lu Yunzhi looked at the capital that had not been attacked for a long time, raised his nose and sniffed in the air and said, "Second brother, have you arrived with new wood, fire oil and other things?" Fang Qingze beside him sighed and shook his head and said: "There are too many people dying every day, and the oil and wood are no longer available, you see that the trees around us have been cut down almost, and they are still not enough, let's not burn the corpses, just bury them on the spot, and then sprinkle lime and other things on it, I think it's okay, if it's too late to dig pits and bury them, let's transport them to various places by car for burial, which may be okay." ”
Lu Yunzhi shook his head,
