Chapter 848: The unwilling Wei Chishun
If Wei Chishun was given the choice, he would prefer to face Li Xinchen, because it would be more enjoyable to fight with such an opponent. Not to mention the slow pace of Chun Yuliang's attack, it doesn't seem to have the intention of taking the lead in making a breakthrough, and fighting with such an old guy who is about to enter the ground, Wei Chishun is somewhat unhappy.
But now there is a mess in Xiangyang City, and Chun Yuliang's offensive intensity is also increasing, so that Wei Chishun has to pay attention to it, and therefore, although he wants to know what is going on in the north and west, at this time Wei Chishun also has to stand here and honestly meet Chun Yuliang's attack.
Of course, Wei Chishun doesn't believe that Chun Yuliang's real strength is only as weak as when he attacks during the day, after all, Chun Yuliang is also a veteran who has fought for many years, and his subordinates have some real skills, and the reason why he procrastiates during the day is probably because there are still many tacit understandings between him and Li Xinchen that have not been formed, which is of course a good thing for the defenders.
However, it was obvious that Chun Yuliang was not going to hide and pinch it now, and with the help of the faint firelight, Wei Chishun judged that at least four or five thousand people had launched an attack at the same time, not to mention that they were ready to replace their companions at any time behind them.
This shows that even if Chun Yuliang doesn't know Li Xinchen's true purpose, he at least knows what Li Xinchen has done, so he knows very well that if he doesn't attack at this time, then this big fat in front of him will not have his share.
This old guy is here to steal merit or prove himself to Li Xinchen.
"General Qiyu, the government in the city was attacked, more than ten generals died on the spot, General Cao's whereabouts are unknown, and the enemy has all Beicheng!" A scout hurried over.
"General Qiyu, Chen Zhishen led the team to climb first, and the West Gate was lost!"
"What?!" Wei Chishun has not recovered from these news all of a sudden, there are bursts of roars behind him, and I don't know how many soldiers under the command of Chun Yuliang jumped onto the city, compared to Li Xinchen's department, they can be said to be recuperating during the day, so at this time, they suddenly launched an attack, and they can take the lead with one blow, and the reason why it has been postponed to this time is mainly because Wei Chishun is sitting here and stabilizing the heart of the Northern Zhou army.
If Wei Chikuan or the rest of the Northern Zhou generals were here, I'm afraid this line of defense would have been loosened long ago.
"Retreat to the inner city!" Wei Chishun decisively ordered.
The situation at the north gate is unknown, but the west gate is lost, indicating that Chen Zhishen may come along the city wall at any time, and he will not be able to walk if he wants to at that time.
"General Qiyu, it is rumored in the army that General Cao died in battle!" A partial general walked over quickly with a frightened look on his face, "The enemy has outflanked both sides of the inner city, and the old lady who is about to leave and all the family members in the house are also missing!" ”
Wei Chishun's face became more and more solemn, and no matter whether Cao Xiaoda was dead or alive, there was no news at all so far, and he couldn't be counted on anymore, and his eldest brother didn't know where to retreat to now, so it was indeed difficult for him to deal with Li Xinchen, who had a fierce general like Chen Zhishen and Pei Zilie.
This is mainly because tonight's attack was beyond everyone's expectations, in the east of the city, in the west of the city and in the middle of the city, the Wei Chi brothers and Cao Xiaoda each presided over one side, no matter how you look at it, there is no problem, anyway, Li Xinchen will not launch an attack, so it seems impeccable to let Wei Chikuan preside over the defense of the western front, but who would have thought that Li Xinchen would really be biased?
Everything was unexpected, and now Cao Xiaoda and Wei Chikuan don't know life and death, and they are afraid that they are all trapped in the chaos, and even their own wives and children have no news, which makes Wei Chishun only feel cold from head to toe.
In this chaotic army, what will happen to the family, Wei Chishun knows very well in his heart. I don't know why this Xiangyang City can't be contained, and everyone is afraid that they won't be able to escape, after all, Xiangyang is now a lonely city, and even Fancheng in the north has fallen into the control of the enemy, and there is only one way to run in the south at this time.
Wei Chishun was not afraid of death, but he didn't want his family to suffer the shame of defeat, and he didn't believe that Li Xinchen would be so merciful once he got Wei Chi Yuan's family.
Xiao Xiong has never hesitated to destroy his opponents, not to mention that for Li Xinchen, Wei Chi Yu can definitely be regarded as an absolute enemy who is constantly entangled.
"Let's go, let's go down town." Wei Chishun said decisively. The western wall is broken, and the eastern side is no longer to be defended.
The top priority was to rush to the south gate as soon as possible before the enemy entered the city, which was the only solution that Wei Chishun could think of to solve the current situation.
If Cao Xiaoda is still in the city, Wei Chishun will not be in a hurry to break through, after all, with Cao Xiaoda in charge, at least the inner city still has the possibility of insisting, but now that Cao Xiaoda's whereabouts are unknown, I am afraid that the inner city has already fallen into the hands of the enemy.
Several generals who followed Wei Chishun had already had this intention, and hurriedly beckoned his subordinates to follow. With the retreat of this large group of soldiers and horses, the city gate was suddenly empty, and the soldiers and horses of Chun Yuliang also quickly rushed to the city wall, and a group of soldiers and horses spread out along the city wall, almost biting the tail of the Northern Zhou army and attacking forward.
"Quick, clean up the battlefield and attack the south gate!" Chun Yuliang climbed the city wall with difficulty with the support of several guards, stretched out his hand to support the battlements and shouted loudly, while secretly sighing, "The old man is still old after all, I didn't expect that the city wall that could be climbed up in three times and five divided by two when I was young is now out of breath." ”
As he spoke, his gaze turned to the city.
"General Qiyu, Wei Chishun ran away, went down the city and went to the city!" A warlord walked over quickly, "Shall we pursue?" ”
"Chasing? If you chase anything, let him run first, and we will go to the south gate and wait. Chun Yuliang said lightly, "The city has become a mess now, is he still in the mood to go to the city to clean up the mess?" He went down to the city first, probably to collect the defeated soldiers in the city, and secondly, it was just to confuse us, we are not familiar with this Xiangyang City, and the pursuit of the tail will definitely not be able to catch up, so he can rush out of the south gate one step in advance. ”
"South Gate, but to the south," a general couldn't help frowning.
To the south is Jingshan Mountain and Jiangling, doesn't this mean that you will go to the Jedi?
As if he had seen through the general's thoughts, Chun Yuliang said lightly: "I was already in the Jedi, and it was just a matter of resignation to be able to get there when I rushed out." It's at least better to be resigned to fate than to die here. ”
While speaking, Chun Yuliang walked towards the south gate, and along the way, there were constantly Northern Zhou soldiers kneeling and surrendering, but Chun Yuliang didn't care about this.
Only a big fish like Wei Chishun is the target of Li Xinchen's interest, and Xiaoxiong's appetite has never been small, let alone Li Xinchen.
Chun Yuliang's biggest regret now is that he didn't use his strength in the daytime attack, if this is hated by Li Xinchen, there will be no good fruit to eat in the future, so he has to lead the army to catch these big fish now, in the hope of getting a good impression on Li Xinchen.
