Chapter 36: The Death of Liu Liangzuo
"Your Highness, you see that you have attacked again, and this time you will definitely be able to break through Huai'an in one fell swoop." Beside Zhu Cihong, Zhao Dequan watched the army attack the city wall in the second time, and jumped up happily, seemingly happier than anyone else.
This time it was the Shandong army led by Ji Feng, except for Zhu Cihong who let the Beijing camp go alone at the east gate on the first day, and then in order to capture Huai'an as soon as possible, the Shandong army also joined the siege battle. Unlike the Beijing camp, which was the first time to fight, the Shandong army was located in the north, and it had fought with both Li Zicheng and the Qing army, and its combat power was only slightly lower than Huang Degong's Luzhou army, and it was the same grade as Gao Jie's Shaanxi army.
"I hope I can capture Huai'an in one fell swoop this time." Zhu Cihong muttered, God has not much time left for Daming, and he can't spend it in Huai'an all the time.
On the Huai'an city wall, attacked the city wall, the Ming soldiers fought more and more bravely, and the Huai'an army on the city wall was defeated for a while, and fled backwards, and quickly cleared a large piece of territory on the city wall, and the endless army climbed up from the cloud ladder, and more than 20 people came up in less than a moment.
"Kill, kill them all, no one is allowed to retreat, whoever retreats Lao Tzu will kill whoever else!" Liu Liangzuo just came from the west gate, Huang Degong's army attacked the most fiercely, so he had no choice but to send a thousand Huai'an soldiers to the other three gates to support, just beat Huang Degong's Luzhou army, and heard that the east gate was in an emergency, and hurriedly rushed with his henchmen.
"Whoever dares to take a step back will be killed." Liu Liangzuo slashed and killed two Huai'an troops who fled backwards in a row, staring at a general who took the lead in escaping, and he was extremely calm.
The general was followed by several people, and after receiving Liu Liangzuo's eyes, he clenched the knife in his hand and aimed at the general.
"Kill, kill back!" The general broke out in a cold sweat, and without thinking about it, he turned his head and rushed towards the gap with the fleeing Huai'an army, desperately trying to kill the Ming soldiers who rushed to the city gate.
This general kept cursing Liu Liangzuo's ancestors for the eighteenth generation in his heart, he is Liu Liangzuo's subordinate, but it doesn't mean that he wants to rebel with Liu Liangzuo. If Liu Liangzuo hadn't sent more than a dozen personal soldiers to monitor him at all times, he would have wanted to open the city gate and surrender a long time ago.
In order to fear the future rebellion of his subordinates, Liu Liangzuo not only arranged for each of them to be protected by more than a dozen of his personal soldiers, but also gathered their family together, and once someone dared to rebel, he would kill that person.
Under such a threat, the effect is naturally quite obvious, no general in charge of the army dares to escape or defect at the risk of the whole family being punished, the general just now is the first, if it weren't for the fact that the Ming army has attacked the city wall at this moment, for fear of affecting the morale of the army, the general was killed by Liu Liangzuo.
Under the desperate resistance of the generals of the Huai'an army, the Ming soldiers who rushed to the city gate were repulsed.
"Damn! Just a little bit! Ji Feng, who was ordered by Zhu Cihong to lead the Shandong Army, looked at the soldiers who were beaten down, and swung his angry fist into the void to vent the sullenness in his heart.
"Quick! Fast! Quickly carry the rolling logs and stones up the walls. "Huai'an city wall, a Huai'an soldier armed with a leather whip threatened several strong men to brave the catapult to hit the city wall and the rain of arrows shot up from outside the city to transport the city defense materials to the city wall.
One of these strong men was carrying a piece of rolling wood, listening to the scolding of the soldiers of the Huai'an army, his expression was extremely forbearing, this person was Zhou Cao, for three days, he witnessed countless strong men being coerced by the Huai'an army to assist in defending the city on the city wall, with countless casualties, and several times he himself was almost hit by a boulder.
Shout!
A bow and arrow grazed Zhou Cao's face, piercing a layer of skin, and the hot pain made Zhou Cao stunned for a moment.
"Smack! What a stunned! Move up quickly, the army outside the city is coming up again. The soldiers of the Huai'an Army whipped Zhou Cao fiercely, which was the 10th time that Zhou Cao had been whipped in the past three days.
Zhou Cao was forced to gasp violently for a few breaths by the anger in his belly, and he couldn't help it in the face of such bullying.
"Damn, instead of being forced to death by you, Lao Tzu will use a few of you as a backing first." In a fit of rage, Zhou Cao slammed the rolling log he had been pitting at the Huai'an soldier who had beaten him.
"Ah" The Huai'an soldier was smashed by Zhou Cao and rolled to the ground, motionless, not knowing life and death!
"You dare to rebel! Look for death! The Huai'an army next to him jumped down, and then became furious, and several Huai'an soldiers raised their knives at the same time to slash at Zhou Cao.
"I've put up with you for a long time, come on! Lao Tzu will pull a few of you backs when he dies! Zhou Caobao's eyes widened, and he suddenly dodged, and quickly picked up a big knife from the ground that had killed a soldier of the Huai'an Army.
Laugh at!
Zhou Cao hacked one of the Huai'an soldiers to death with a knife, and the splash of blood stained his face red, adding a little hideousness to him out of thin air, and several Huai'an soldiers were slightly stunned by this scene.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Cao swung his knife and slashed, slashing and killing two Huai'an soldiers again, like a killing god for a while, the more he fought, the more brave he became, and his hidden huge strength was completely stimulated.
Zhou Cao licked the blood left at the corner of his mouth, and the fishy sweetness in his mouth filled his mind with infinite bloodlust, regardless of it, like a crazy beast, he slaughtered all the way up the city wall along the stone steps in the city, and behind him, dozens of Huai'an soldiers who had been guarding the strong men under the city chased the crazy Zhou Cao up the city wall along the stone steps.
A strange scene appeared, the soldiers of the Huai'an Army on the stone steps were resisting the attack of the army outside the city with all their might, and they didn't pay attention to the city at all, and they never imagined that a strong man would go crazy and kill all the way up the city wall from the stone steps in the city.
Liu Liangzuo was directing the inspection on the city wall at the moment, and was walking to the stone steps of the lower city wall, when suddenly, a strong man with a big knife in his hand and a hideous face covered in blood rushed out here.
Liu Liangzuo was stunned for an instant, what's going on? What does this person do?
Zhou Cao was also stunned for a breath, but he reacted instantly, and he transported the materials for defending the city back and forth on the city wall for a few days, and he naturally recognized Liu Liangzuo. He hated Liu Liangzuo to death, his parents died, and he was taking care of his elderly grandfather and young sister at home, but he didn't want to be arrested by Liu Liangzuo to be a strong man here.
What's the matter, God has eyes, throw him to meet Liu Liangzuo at this moment, no matter what, before he dies, he must pull Liu Liangzuo, the culprit, to his back.
Zhou Cao didn't say a word, and slashed at Liu Liangzuo with a knife.
"Be careful, sir." A personal soldier blocked the knife for Liu Liangzuo, and immediately several personal soldiers were able to stop in front of Liu Liangzuo to protect Liu Liangzuo.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After several exchanges, Zhou Cao slashed and killed one of Liu Liangzuo's personal soldiers with great strength. However, at this time, dozens of shouts of killing came from behind him, but it was dozens of Huai'an troops chasing behind him who were approaching.
The two fists are hard to beat dozens of pairs of hands, if they are really hit by the front and back, Zhou Cao will definitely die, and it is even more impossible to pull Liu Liangzuo as a backrest.
"Roar"
Zhou Cao roared with red eyes, like a tiger, in order to pull Liu Liangzuo to cushion his back before he died, Zhou Cao fought hard to exchange injuries for injuries, and his whole body was dyed red, and his abdomen, left arm and other injuries were even more aroused, but this stimulated the bloodlust in his heart even more, and instantly slashed and killed several pro-soldiers who were blocking Liu Liangzuo's body, killing Liu Liangzuo.
Liu Liangzuo was frightened by fear, and Liu Liangzuo, who was also a little brave, turned around and was about to run away after thinking about it. However, Zhou Cao desperately killed in front of him, how could he still allow Liu Liangzuo to escape.
"Poof!"
As soon as Liu Liangzuo turned around, he was slashed in the back and almost beheaded.
"No"
"Hahahaha!" Cutting down Liu Liangzuo, Zhou Cao laughed wildly, instantly pounced on Liu Liangzuo, grabbed Liu Liangzuo's hair with one hand, put the knife on Liu Liangzuo's neck with the other, and cut off Liu Liangzuo's head alive with a few clicks.
Liu Liangzuo screamed several times until Zhou Cao cut most of his neck and finally cut his throat to let him die. A stream of warm blood spurted out from Liu Liangzuo's severed neck and shot into the faces of the nearby Huai'an soldiers.
"Haha, hahahaha" Zhou Cao grabbed Liu Liangzuo's brain-dead with one hand, held a blood-dripping steel knife with the other, and sat directly on Liu Liangzuo's corpse with one butt and laughed wildly, this scene was extremely terrifying.
"Ahh
"Devil! The devil is coming, and the devil has killed Liu Liangzuo! Liu Liangzuo's dead head shook in Zhou Cao's hand, but Zhou Cao was laughing wildly, and the surrounding Huai'an soldiers were so frightened by this scene that they had a nervous breakdown, and no one dared to swing a knife to Zhou Cao, who was close at hand, and directly threw away the sword in his hand and fled violently, fleeing all the way shouting that Liu Liangzuo was killed by the devil.
"Liu Liangzuo is dead! Liu Liangzuo is dead! Hearing this news, the Huai'an soldiers at the east gate finally collapsed, and the army outside the city attacked the city wall here.
Outside the city, Zhu Cihong originally watched the dozens of soldiers who attacked the city wall being killed again, and he was very disappointed, but he suddenly saw that the Huai'an army on the Huai'an city wall had become chaotic for some reason, and some people even threw the bow and arrow in their hands and fled backwards, so that his siege army attacked the city wall again, and more and more, no Huai'an soldiers came to resist again, Zhu Cihong knew that Huai'an City was finally breached.
"Kill!" Thousands of besieging troops marched down the towers to the bottom of the city, opened the gates and enlarged the army to enter.
A soldier passed by Zhou Cao and saw that this person was sitting on the body of a Huai'an army general at this moment with the head of a future Huai'an army, and this strange scene made everyone who saw it stunned.
"It's Liu Liangzuo's head, Liu Liangzuo was killed by this person!" Someone recognized Liu Liangzuo's identity.
"This person can kill Liu Liangzuo like this, he is really a warrior! Great! One of the generals who led the soldiers to the place sighed, and everyone showed respect.
