Chapter 778: The Tumultuous City

On the city wall, looking at the city from afar, the terrible cry came with the wind, Zhu Huan pressed the wall in shock, and occasionally lit a fire in the courtyard of the house, when the black smoke rolled up into the sky, a soldier came up from below to report the news in the city, informing him that it was the lord Zhuge Jin, Gu Yong, and Zhang Zhao's young men who came to the city to assist in the defense.

"Lord..... this is irrational...... Self-destruct the city walls. ”

The soldier muttered, "I heard that the lord is drunk......"

Soon, Sun Ce and Tai Shici came with more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, ready to start the siege.

In the distance, a group of soldiers spread through the streets of the city, frightened passers-by to glance hurriedly, and quickly disappeared into a certain alley, and the roaring footsteps soon stopped in front of the gate of a mansion.

The courtyard door was kicked open with a bang.

The crowd of sword-wielding soldiers and Changge poured in, and the courtyard full of flowers and birds was broken by the sudden movement, and someone from the courtyard and domestic servants who came out of the house stepped forward to ask: "This is the Zhonglang Mansion, who is the subordinate of you......." Before the words were finished, a spear penetrated the man's body, and then pulled out, and the corpse fell down with a bloody line, and the red liquid soaked the ground, and the surrounding guards, domestic servants, and maids were so frightened that they took a step back, and even turned around and ran towards the backyard, causing a riot.

A moment later, Yan Jian took his wife and children and led several personal guards over, looked at the blood-stained corpse of the domestic servant on the ground, and stared at a lieutenant colonel who led the team: "What do you mean by slamming the door and entering the hospital, killing people first if you don't agree with each other?!" ”

The lieutenant directly opened a plain silk letter and explained his intention, "The military order is in place, and please don't make it difficult for the last general, send the young men of the family to the city wall, and assist the lord to resist the invading enemy!" If you don't comply, Hugh will be rudeβ€”"

"How dare you! It's not too late to wait until he has seen the lord in person. ”

"This is the Lord's order!" The lieutenant arched his hand, took a step back, and waved his hand violently: "Arrest someone!" Rebels are killed on the spot! ”

The wind slowly blew through the city, and in the soft sunlight, there was a heart-rending cry, not only in Yan Ji's mansion, but also in the soldiers who spread through the streets, one by one, the soldiers smashed open the gates, some resisted, almost the whole family was killed, and the obedient, all the men over ten years old and under fifty were driven to the side of the city wall.

When the chaos spread, and the two houses on the southwest side, there were many swords and soldiers, and the two figures in armor walked up the stone steps, came to the eaves and swept their eyes over the dense crowd, "My father has been the third term of the Sun family, he has never been arrogant, and he has been dedicated to assisting, but under the conspiracy of tragic death, now the Sun thief is even more of a disaster to the Jiangdong families, with such atrocities, how can he still be for my lord, you are all my father's old department, and they are also generous and loyal people, instead of serving such despicable people, it is better to take advantage of the chaos to open the city gate, welcome the new emperor into the city, and protect the old and young in the city!" ”

In the voice of the yellow handle, another figure was the son of Cheng Pu, the general Cheng Shi, standing by the sword: "You come with me." After speaking, he drew his sword and walked straight through the middle of the crowd, and the moment he opened the door of the house, he shouted: "Open the city gate and welcome the peace of Jiangdongβ€”β€”"

Hundreds of soldiers rushed into the streets, straight to the west gate, at the same time, the resistance everywhere was also intensifying, the killed Sun Quan soldiers ran through the streets, shouting in terror: "Huang Shan, Cheng Zhi chaos, go to the west gateβ€”β€”"

"The people of the city are not allowed to go out into the streets at will, so as not to be injured by mistake!"

"The enemy army at the east gate has attacked the city!!"

When the blood, killing chaos spread, the fire has risen into the sky, black smoke and dust with the advance of the killing straight to the sky, in this sudden chaos, the hasty siege has begun for a while, the arrows are nailed to the wooden beams of the city tower, stretching left and right, countless arrows densely fall on the city wall, or fly to the surging crowd of siegers under the city, splashing pieces of blood.

There are still 50,000 soldiers and horses in Jianye, and more than 10,000 people from each gate, in the face of a not high-intensity attack, the pressure is not too great, especially when the bows and crossbows, ladders and other things prepared by the other party for siege are not sufficient, relying only on the number of people, Zhu Huan is still confident to hold on. Nearby soldiers rushed towards the most intense part of the attack, and from time to time arrows fell, nailing people to the ground, and those who were not dead were pulled behind by their companions, and then more people made up, carrying logs and rocks down the battlements, and smashing into the sea of people like a swarm of bees.

Half an hour later, the battle of a certain section of the city wall suddenly became fierce, Zhu Huan rushed over with the soldiers, the sticky blood on the ground almost made him fall, the vision moved forward, the crowded soldiers were torn open a gap, and several people covered in flesh and blood killed the figure blocking the road, pushed back, and rushed towards him.

"Zhu Huan! Give you one last chance! ”

The twin halberds tore a soldier in two, and the tall Tai Shi Ci shook the halberd, the blood beads shook off, and he strode in the blood water, "Sun Quan is finished, do you descend or not-"

Not far away, Chen Wu, Han Dang, and Han Zong also killed this side.

All around, the enemy kept standing on the city wall, and the corpses of his subordinates and the corpses of the enemy were also spreading out, Zhu Huan pushed away the soldiers who wanted to protect him, carried the ring head knife, and raised it high: "Ah-" let out a long roar, and then ....... slammed it on the ground, "-I fell!" ”

The fighting in this area gradually subsided, and the city gate opened a moment later, and Sun Ce took Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu into the city on horseback.

In the distant city, the flames were burning, the blood and mutilated corpses were still swept forward with the killing, and the west city gate was caught off guard by the sudden Huang Shan, Cheng Zhi and the two people led the troops to kill, the moment the city gate opened, the two cavalry of Bingzhou and White Wolf, who had been wandering outside the city, saw this, and were puzzled at first, but then, they rushed straight in.

Wearing a red feather, a woman with two armors on the head of a delicate beast and a halberd was the first to enter the city gate, when someone waved a knife at her, the horse's mane and red cloak were sprinkled out, and the Jiangdong soldiers who pounced dragged out a long blood line and flew backwards and smashed on the wall of the doorway, and the round crescent halberd was horizontal, and the horse shouted: "And the state iron horse, push-"

The Iron Rider was like a tidal wave diverging from her sides, surging into the streets.

The screams and screams in the distance came faintly, and the drunkenness gradually receded from his mind, Sun Quan sat on the desk with the Bai Hongjian and was a little sober, but there was still some confusion and indignation, but the sound of heavy footsteps outside alarmed him, and Zhou Tai came in from outside with a bloody breath, "Lord, something is wrong." ”

"Gongsun Zhi came in?"

"Yes..... and Huang Shan, Cheng Zhi took advantage of the situation to make trouble, they led more than 1,000 people to attack the West City Gate, and let the Beidi cavalry enter the city, and there are ..... still ....."

Sun Quan raised his head and looked at him: "Who else?" ”

"And ...... Zhuge Jin, Gu Yong, and Zhang Zhao also participated with the guards and servants at home, and the ..... of Zhu Huan, the guard of the east gate, also surrendered. Zhou Tai said this, his head drooped, he took a breath, and patted his chest: "But don't worry, the lord is here, and he will be able to protect the lord from breaking through the city, and please leave with the last general immediately." ”

"Half of Jiangdong is gone, where else can I escape?"

The figure sitting on the desk stood up, took the Bai Hong Sword in his hand, crossed Zhou Tai on the opposite side, and saw that there were still more than five hundred guards and soldiers gathered outside to prepare to break through, and after a while, he said: "Let's go back to the house with me first, there is still one thing to do." ”

Walking out of the palace, the sound of exclamation and screaming, crying, and fighting became clear, and the chaos and fighting in some places gradually stabilized, but the crying still continued to sound, after Sun Ce entered the city, he first sent troops to curb the chaos, and would take the opportunity to rob and rape. The perpetrators of the evil were killed on the spot, but most of the streets they walked past were damaged, and several buildings were still burning, and the nearby residents and soldiers were helping to put out the fire, and the people pulled out of it were already charred and black.

When he came to the door of a house of an official whose name he could not name, the door plaque was broken on the stone steps, and there were corpses on the side of the road, all of which were the official's family, and some people who were lucky enough not to die sat next to the corpse and wept loudly, and a woman held the body of her son crying without a sound, and the child's head was still at the woman's feet with a frightened look.

Sun Ce only glanced at it, a little reluctant to look further, Cheng Pu and Zhou Yu behind him sighed, and sent some soldiers to clear out the thieves in various parts of the city and help the people, and then, there was a cavalry in front of him coming this way, Sun Ce stopped fighting horses, and suddenly had a frightened illusion, so he heard the scout speak: "Wu Hou, the mansion is empty, and the person who caught it said that he went to the mansion, as if ..... it seems that Wu Hou's wife and children are there." ”

In the next second, Sun Ce directly raised his horse and shouted: "-Lead the way!" ”

In the streets, the sound of horses' hooves exploded, and the cavalry galloped after them.

On the other side, Gongsun Zhi entered the city with a group of generals.
