Chapter 68: All Broken

There was a fire in the city of Chengcheng, and with Zhang Liao leading 2,000 men and horses into the city, even if there was an order not to shoot against the people, the people in the city were trembling under the iron hooves of the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong, and instinctively feared and escaped, and became a mess.

The fighting on the city wall continued, a large number of militiamen fled, Liu Yan was distributed everywhere to take care of the soldiers who commanded the militia, but at this moment he suffered from the disadvantages of dividing the troops, and he could not organize an effective counterattack at all, the militia were overwhelmed, these guards were scattered everywhere, even if they had the intention to kill the enemy, they did not play much role in killing the Hanzhong soldiers who came to the city wall, and they were often annihilated by their own militia before they collided with Ye Zhao's army, or they ran to the city with coercion, or accidentally fell to the ground and were trampled by the chaotic people.

Liu Yan sat down weakly in the governor's mansion, leaned against the wall, and closed his eyes.

"Father, what should I do?" Listening to the sound of fighting outside getting closer and closer, Liu Zhang walked around in front of Liu Yan anxiously, turning his head to look outside from time to time.

Liu Yan was a little helpless about this young son, I don't know if it was God's condemnation of him, Liu Yan had four sons, the third son Liu Mao, who was killed by the Hu people when he was in Youzhou, for this reason, Liu Yan was angry with Ye Zhao, and secretly acquiesced to deal with Ye Zhao, with Ye Zhao's intelligence, I am afraid it is not difficult to guess.

The eldest son Liu Fan and the second son Liu Dan are now detained by Dong Zhuo in Chang'an, as a hostage, I don't know if there is a chance to come back in this life, but Liu Zhang, who is not valued by Liu Yan, is the most unimportant, his three brothers, or literary or martial, each has his own strengths, and he also has a bold heart, after a hundred years, any one of them is enough to inherit his own inheritance, but only Liu Zhang, the tiger father and the dog son, is not to say how bad, but compared to Liu Yan and Liu Zhang's three brothers, Liu Zhang is too mediocre, and cowardly, is the most unsuitable one to be Liu Yan's heir, but because of this, he has been following Liu Yan's side, and he has not been released by Liu Yan to experience like his three brothers, but luck is the best one.

Liu Yan opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he saw that the door of the state pastoral mansion was slammed open, and a general led a large number of soldiers to rush in.

Zhang Liaolong walked in a tiger step, the big stride was not as good as the hall, his whole body was filled with a bad breath, Liu Zhang's face was pale, he had been pampered since he was a child, and he had not seen the world like his three elder brothers, he had never seen such a murderous scene, his legs were weak, he sat on the ground with his buttocks, and a foul smell permeated from between his two strands.

Liu Yan looked at the visitor expressionlessly, straightened his clothes, and sat upright in his seat.

"The last general hussar general, Captain Zhang Liao, see Uncle Huang!" Zhang Liao came to Liu Zhang's side and bowed.

"Hussar general?" Liu Yan looked at Zhang Liao distractedly, shook his head and smiled: "In the past, Xiao'er, I didn't want to have such a momentum today, but I didn't know that the Ye family ordered the general to come here, but he wanted me to be on the head?" ”

"Don't dare!" Zhang Liao bowed and said: "My lord is a big man and a horse, if according to the generation, the imperial uncle is my lord's ancestors, although now in the hindrance of the situation, swords and guns face each other, but the etiquette can not be abolished, in the last tense, I have been entrusted by my lord, not to hurt the old imperial uncle half a point, should be courteous." ”

"It's a good courtesy, the number of Ye family's courtesies is very thoughtful!" Liu Yan sneered.

"I hope that Uncle Huang won't embarrass the last general." Zhang Liao bowed and said.

"That's it!" Liu Yan sighed, at this moment, as if he was ten years old, and now, no matter what he says, it is just the sorrow of the lost dog, he is a hero, and he disdains to show such a sad attitude: "I don't know what the hussar general is going to do with the old man?" ”

"Please stay in the mansion for the time being, but the guards in the mansion need to be arranged by the general, as long as the old emperor uncle does not leave the mansion, no one dares to be disrespectful to the old emperor uncle and Ling Gongzi." Zhang Liao bowed and said: "At the end of the year, the general will repel the enemy from outside the city and welcome my lord into the capital, and then my lord will come to visit him in person." ”

The implication is that he will be put under house arrest for the time being, and he will wait for Ye Zhao to arrive before making plans.

"Then Zhao Wei and Ren Qi and Ye Zhao are not all the way?" Liu Yan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, Ren Qi suddenly raised troops, he thought that Ye Zhao had united the Shuzhong family to deal with him, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"At present, the last general does not know, but the lord has a clear order, before my lord enters the city/capital, no army is allowed to enter the city." Zhang Liao bowed and said.

"Okay, this son is really ambitious." Liu Yan laughed, nodded and said, "The old man understands, the general will go by himself, the old man will not leave, please rest assured." ”

Now that the state pastoral mansion is controlled by Zhang Liao, what he wants to do is no longer able to do it at the moment.

……

Compared with the war in Chengdu, the county is much more tragic.

Ye Zhao issued the order for a general attack, on the day that Zhang Liao broke Chengdu, under the command of Ye Zhao, Ji Ling, Guan Hai and even Dian Wei were sent to the front line, launched a general attack on Ruoxian, a flying boat continued to drop stones over Ruoxian, saying that it was a stone, but in fact, each one was the size of a fist, the stones that fell from the sky, after accelerating at high altitude, the power was not much weaker than the arrow cluster, smashed on people, the skin was light, and if the unlucky one was smashed on the head, even the general with a helmet could be smashed The head is broken.

More than a dozen siege engines began to advance towards the city gate, the main body of which was actually a wooden pillar with a wooden roof and some animal skins wrapped in it, which could resist the boiling oil splashed on the city wall, and in order to speed up the movement, wooden wheels were also filled.

In addition, in order to cover the siege vehicle siege of the city, Ye Zhao also ordered the Shengong battalion to rush out of the well, and the catapult also followed closely behind the siege vehicle and was set up fifty steps away from the city wall.

The overwhelming stones mixed with the rain of arrows under the black pressure fell, the Shu army at the head of the city was pressed to hide under the shield or the tower, the counterattack of the sparse Lala appeared to be weak, the war at the moment when Ye Zhao decided to launch a general attack, it seemed that the result had been announced, with the cooperation of the air force, various siege equipment and the all-round attack composed of elite archers, even with the addition of Qingqiang soldiers, Yu Zhan did not have much help, and the siege vehicle rushed to the city smoothly after less than a quarter of an hour after the battle, and began to hit the door frantically.

Ah Qinggu roared and raised a boulder with both hands, and smashed it towards the city gate, the roof of a siege vehicle was directly smashed by the boulder, and the two soldiers who couldn't dodge were smashed into flesh, and the arrows that followed shot the besiegers who had lost their shelter into hedgehogs.

The scrapped siege engine was pushed away with a shield, and two more siege vehicles stepped forward and began to slam the door frantically.

Ah Qinggu was about to concoct the same method, but was thrown to the ground by a Qingqiang soldier, and dozens of arrows broke through the air, shooting six Qingqiang soldiers around the two.

The well finally arrived under the impetus of Ye Zhaojun's soldiers, the well was as high as four zhang, much higher than the city wall of Ruxian County, the shooter above was condescending, and the Shu soldiers on the city wall began to suppress, and at the same time the catapult also began to attack, Rao is Qingqiang soldiers were extremely brave, at this moment in the face of Ye Zhao's endless siege equipment and the suppression of the air force, they were also powerless to resist, and watched a cloud ladder on the city wall, a famous Han lieutenant general rushed to the city head without fear of death, and fought with the Shu army defending the city.

"Hurry down! Drive them down! Pang Xi walked on the city wall with his sword, frantically slashed the two soldiers who had just come up, he didn't expect that the siege of Ye Zhao's army would be so rapid today, with these siege weapons, coupled with the suppression of the air force, the Shu army defending the city could not give full play to the advantage of defending the city, and it was only a long time before the other party attacked the city wall.

The matter has come to this point, there is only a death battle, but these Shu army soldiers face the elite of Ye Zhao's men, once they lose the advantage of the city wall, the level of combat effectiveness is divided at once, often one Ye Zhao's soldiers can fight three or even four Shu troops, that fierce momentum, not to mention ordinary Shu army soldiers, even Pang Xi feel a little frightened.

And as more and more Ye Zhaojun climbed the city wall, the shortcomings of the Shu army's lack of combat effectiveness became more prominent, most of Ye Zhao's soldiers knew some joint attack techniques, often three or five soldiers, they could cooperate with each other to occupy a section of the city wall, and more soldiers rushed to the city, Ren Pang Xi shouted his throat, and the activity space of the Shu army on the city wall was gradually compressed with the continuous influx of Ye Zhaojun's soldiers.

"Roar~" A violent roar sounded in the distance.

But it was the leader of the Qingqiang who saw that the warriors in his family were constantly being killed by the enemy, and let out an angry roar, the mountain opening knife in his hand had already rolled the blade, snatched two single knives from Ye Zhaojun's hands and slashed them away, killing in the crowd like a whirlwind, and where he passed, even the Ye Zhaojun soldiers who had gathered together were difficult to resist.

"What kind of Qingqiang leader is that?" Dian Wei and Ji Ling stood side by side, and at this moment, the Shu army on the city wall was almost completely defeated, which also made Ah Qinggu's side a little dazzling.

"Exactly, this person has a lot of courage, if he fights alone, he will be defeated in the end." Ji Ling nodded.

Don't look at Ji Ling's military rank is higher than Dian Wei, but Dian Wei is Ye Zhao's guard, plus he has the ability to champion the three armies, and he is also relatively reckless, in Ye Zhao's army, he belongs to the third level of the official university, and without violating the military regulations, Ji Ling must also maintain enough respect for Dian Wei.

"I'll leave this person to me!" Dian Wei threw the double iron halberd behind his back and rushed towards the city wall.

"If possible, spare this person's life and see if he can surrender!" Ji Ling couldn't help but shout at Dian Wei.

"It depends." Dian Wei didn't look back, on this battlefield, there is no room for half mercy.

But seeing Dian Wei rushing to the front of the cloud ladder, the Shu army had been suppressed at this moment, and he was no longer able to take care of the city, but seeing that Dian Wei was like a spirit ape, he rushed onto the city wall after a few strokes, and saw that Ah Qing Gu picked up a soldier and threw it to the ground, and immediately shouted violently: "That thief, dare to hurt my soldiers, and die!" ”

A terrifying pressure that Ah Qinggu had never experienced was overwhelmingly pressed, making Ah Qinggu's movements stiffen, and he subconsciously turned his head to look, but saw that a mountain-like figure had been volleyed down, and the fierce momentum made Ah Qing's bones numb, and he hurriedly threw the corpse in his hand to Dian Wei, and at the same time rolled to the ground, picked up two single knives, and stared at Dian Wei vigilantly.

"Snort~"

The black light in the air crossed, and the corpse of the soldier who was thrown away was instantly cut apart by the two halberds, Dian Wei's feet fell to the ground, the entire city wall seemed to shake, and a pair of beast-like eyes fell on A Qinggu and said: "Descend, or die!" ”

Ah Qinggu has seen the mountain tiger more than once, but even the most ferocious tiger seems to give him the feeling that it is not as terrifying as the person in front of him, is this the momentum of the top powerhouse of the Han people? Ah Qinggu suddenly understood that Ji Ling and Guan Hai would have that kind of expression when they heard him praise them as the number one warrior of the Han people.

Taking a deep breath, Ah Qinggu said in broken Chinese: "The son of the Qing clan will only die in battle, and will never surrender." ”

"It's a man, then go die!" Dian Wei nodded appreciatively, and the twin iron halberds in his hands had already fallen with a whistling.

Ah Qinggu hurriedly raised his double knives to parry.

"Bang~"

With a loud bang, the terrifying power came from the double knife, Ah Qing Gu popped, knelt on one knee, and looked at Dian Wei with red eyes, he was already a powerful person, but he didn't expect that there were people in this world who could suppress themselves purely in terms of strength.

"Something to do!" Dian Wei nodded, and the double iron halberd was dragged, and then it was a double thunderbolt, and the two iron halberds slashed towards Ah Qinggu from both sides.

Ah Qinggu hurriedly raised his knife again to block on both sides.

"Bang~"

There was another loud bang, and Ah Qing's bone tiger's mouth cracked, and a striking gap appeared in the two single knives in his hand.

"The last halberd, die!" Dian Wei rarely met an opponent who could fight with him to his heart's content, and he roared excitedly, and the iron halberd in his hand was slashed down one after another, and he had long forgotten Ji Ling's instructions before.

"Boom~"

Dian Wei slashed out eighteen halberds in one breath, Ah Qinggu knelt on the ground like this, the two knives overlapped in front of him, and he blocked the eighteen halberds hard, and his body was pushed back by the force of the two people on the city wall to retreat more than a dozen steps, as the last halberd fell, the two single knives were broken in response, Dian Wei put away the halberd and stood, when he looked at A Qinggu, his eyes were wide open, and his seven orifices were bleeding, and he was already silent, and he was shocked to death by Dian Wei!

"It's a pity, it's a man." Dian Wei looked at A Qinggu, then remembered Ji Ling's request before, shook his head, became interested, and forgot about it, but if he died, he would die! The top priority is to break the city.

The surrounding Qingqiang soldiers saw their own leaders killed in battle, and one by one they frantically pounced on Dian Wei, Dian Wei laughed fiercely, the double halberd was opened, and dozens of Qingqiang soldiers were killed by Dian Wei alone, and the rest of the Qingqiang soldiers saw this, and they were cowardly, and they didn't dare to fight again, so they grabbed A Qinggu's body and ran.

The Shu army was already in decline, and now even Qingqiang is gone, which is still the opponent of Ye Zhaojun, it didn't last long, it was completely defeated, the city gate was also knocked open, and an endless stream of Ye Zhaojun poured into the city.
