Chapter 1000: Chaotic War
At the east gate, Ke Zhen was fully armed, standing on the city wall with a knife in his hand, looking into the distance. After the warning bell rang from the core general's mansion in the gate, it was spreading outward layer by layer, and a moment later, the bell tower above the eastern city also rang. Tiger Prison Pass is the front line of the anti-Qin resistance, and all countermeasures are extremely perfect. When he heard the warning bell, all he should do was close the gates and prepare for battle.
But Ke Zhen was obviously not prepared to act according to the rules, and when the bell rang, he still stood quietly, looking into the distance. Of course, he could not close the gates, and according to the plan, in half an hour, an army would appear outside the eastern city and enter the city from his own.
A sound of footsteps came from behind him, Ke Zhen turned around, and saw his deputy Chen Si rushing towards with a team of people, he couldn't help but smile coldly, the corners of his mouth turned up, and the slightest murderous intent was inadvertently revealed.
"General Ke, when the bell rings, the city gate should be closed, and the general is asked to give an order to close the city gate immediately." Chen Si said loudly.
"I'm in charge here, when will it be your turn to call the shots?" Ke Zhen said coldly: "Whether to close the city gate or not, I have my own ideas." ”
Chen Si was stunned, took two steps back, looked at Ke Zhen, who had already turned his head and ignored him, and pulled out his saber with a choked sound, "It turns out that the general and the traitor have already colluded, is this preparing to lead the enemy into the city?" ”
Ke Zhen slowly turned his head, "Chen Si, do you want to rebel?" ”
"I think it's you who wants to rebel, take down this rebel for me!" Chen Si shouted angrily, and the group of soldiers behind him immediately pressed forward.
Several guards around Ke Zhen immediately drew their swords and blocked in front of Ke Zhen.
Ke Zhen laughed: "Chen Si, you want to play with me, you are still a little tender, do you think I don't know about your little actions?" Come on, take down all these thieves for me. ”
In the midst of a shout, groups of soldiers poured out from the cave and from the top of the city tower, and lined up in front of Ke Zhen, surrounding Chen Si and his party to death.
"Kill him!" Chen Si, who was besieged, changed his complexion greatly, and pointed his knife at Ke Zhen in front of him, and more than ten people behind him immediately pounced on him, fighting with the soldiers in front of Ke Zhen, and the sound of gold and iron resonating in the city was endless.
Although there were many people in front of Ke Zhen, the people brought by Chen Si were extremely unusual, completely different from the soldiers of the army, with high martial arts and extremely powerful killing methods, and the several rows of soldiers in front of Ke Zhen were almost killed by them in an instant. Kankan was forced in front of Ke Zhen.
Several guards who had been standing in front of Ke Zhen greeted them and intercepted the group of people in the area. This time, the odds and weaknesses of the warring sides were reversed.
Chen Si looked at the guards on the other side in shock, they were not the previous guards beside Ke Zhen, just as the people he brought were not the guards of the East Gate at all, they were all from another group of people.
Ke Zhen had already taken precautions. Li thought about this, his heart was full of death, and he turned around and fled to the city.
Looking at the back of Chen Si's escape, Ke Zhen laughed, with one hand, a guard immediately handed over a bow and an arrow, drew the bow and arrow, and with a whoosh, the sharp arrow entered from Chen Si's back and came out of his chest, and Yu Li took Chen Si to run forward a few steps, and then rolled down the string ladder.
"Prepare for battle!" Ke Zhen yelled.
The city suddenly became busy, and one by one the crossbow machines were pushed out of the hidden soldier cave, but the crossbow machines were aimed at the city, and more soldiers rushed down from the city and poured into the city.
Not far from the east city, Li Zhongfa's face sank like water, listening to the report of a rushing spy, killing Ke Zhen and seizing the east city gate's plan failed, Dai Daren's foolproof plan, there was the first big leak, if the east city gate could not be closed, let He Weiping's 3,000 people rush into the city, then the city will enter a melee. With Chen Si to kill Ke Zhen, it was the soldier ants among the sand ants, all of them were good hands, far from being comparable to those guards around Ke Zhen, why did they fail? There is only one possibility, Ke Zhen has been on guard for a long time, and there are powerful people around him to protect him.
"The whole army immediately launched an attack, annihilated the defenders of the East City, captured the East City Gate, and kept the enemy out!" He stood up.
On the street, the black-pressed soldiers shouted and rushed towards the east gate.
The two forces collided at the East City Gate, they were originally comrades-in-arms, but now they were fighting together for different goals.
Looking at the rows of opponents rushing up, Ke Zhen on top of the city tower sneered, "Release the arrow!" ”
One by one, the crossbow machines began to roar, and one after another, with the mark of death, flew towards the enemy who pounced. This is the repeater, the most lethal of the latest repeater in the Ming army. Li Zhongfa couldn't have imagined that in Kezhen's army, there would be a big killing weapon of the Ming Kingdom. The stormtroopers at the front were swept to the ground like leeks.
Li Zhongfa was terrified in his heart, and when he saw those crossbow machines spitting out crossbow arrows, his hands couldn't help but tremble, Mingren, Mingren also mixed in, otherwise, how could Ke Zhen have the most powerful weapon in the Mingren army in his hand.
Chen Shaowei, the deputy general of the Zuo battalion stationed outside the city, escaped from the general's mansion before the arrival of the Thunder Army, and Liu Chang's quick decision won him a lot of time, and if it was a moment later, he would have no chance to escape again. At this moment, he has only one thought, he must go out of the city immediately, return to the left camp, and mobilize a large army into the city. Whipping his horse desperately, he galloped all the way to the south gate, where the camp of the left battalion was stationed.
There was a sound of sharp arrows breaking in his ears, Chen Shaowei's soul was rising, he rolled off the saddle, rolled on the ground and rolled a few times in a row, the person was already shrinking in the corner of the wall, standing with a knife, and a feather arrow flying from nowhere was inserted in the head of the galloping war horse, and the war horse galloped forward for dozens of feet, and fell to the ground with a bang.
Several black-clad masked men appeared ghostly on the street, approaching Chen Shaowei without saying a word. "Sand ants! Uncle Dai! Chen Shaowei yelled angrily.
The masked man rushed forward and fought with Chen Shaowei.
The sword light was sheng, and in a staggered manner, Chen Shaowei knelt on one knee, blood poured out on his arms and thighs, and two black-clothed masked men had already fallen. With a single knife in his hand, he looked angrily at the remaining men in black. The opponent's martial arts are not necessarily high, but the tricks are weird, and the swords are all life-changing plays, Chen Shaowei knows very well that he can't hold on, and he can kill the other two at most, but he will inevitably give his life here.
He stood up with difficulty, raised his knife above his head with both hands, and walked towards the man in black on the opposite side step by step, since he couldn't escape, let's kill again!
The whistling sound of the crossbow arrows sounded again, but Chen Shaowei stood there in a daze, this time the crossbow arrows were aimed at the men in black. On the rooftops on both sides of the alley, one masked figure after another appeared, and it was clear that they were not in the same group as the masked men from before.
"General Chen, lay down your arms, our leader wants to talk to you." A masked man walked a few steps away from Chen Shaowei, not holding a weapon, but around him, another masked man pointed the crossbow in his hand at him.
"They're sand ants, who are you?" Chen Shaowei's mind was completely confused, everything that happened today was completely beyond the scope of his imagination, the entire Tiger Prison was completely chaotic, and at this time, he couldn't distinguish between friend and foe at all.
"General Chen, when you see our leader, you naturally know who we are? I suggest you don't resist needlessly, I don't want to knock you unconscious and carry you over, there is some chaos in the city today, and there are enemies everywhere. The masked man chuckled. You can't get out of the city now, the south gate has been controlled by Dai Shulun and them, and when you get there, it's a dead end. Follow us is your only way to live. ”
Chen Shaowei thought for a moment, nodded heavily, the other party was not lying, if they wanted to die by themselves, they just had to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, there was no need to come forward at all. Even if they wanted to kill themselves now, it would only be a matter of words, and those crossbows would be impossible to resist at this distance.
"Okay, I'll go with you!"
Led by the masked man, the group quickly disappeared into the alleyway.
At the east gate, the battle has been carried out to the white heat, Li Zhongfa is very clear, once the He Weiping troops outside the city smoothly rush into the city, things will develop in an unpredictable direction, he must take the city gate, personally lead the team, he launched a charge again and again, this time, with him to charge is Dai Shulun sent soldiers and ants, although there are only about a hundred people, but the combat effectiveness is far better than his own soldiers and horses. Armed with iron shields, they finally rushed to the array of guards at the east gate after paying a third of the casualties.
Once they entered this distance, the huge lethality of the soldier ants was immediately revealed, and in a moment, they had already pushed the east gate guards back dozens of steps, and behind them, more guards were already charging towards the city wall, but Li Zhongfa led the soldier ants to launch one attack after another towards the city gate hole, and he was going to close the city gate.
Winning soon! Although he paid a painful price, he was going to win after all, Li Zhongfa let out a long sigh of relief, and the city gate was already close at hand.
Then, in front of his eyes, a group of people in black appeared.
Not inferior to the combat effectiveness of the soldier ants, the addition of these black-clothed men immediately stabilized the formation of the guards in the east city, and the sharp weapons and equipment made them firmly in the upper hand in the battle with the soldier ants, and after stabilizing the lineup, they began to launch a counterattack.
It's the eagle falcon of the Ming Eagle's Nest! Li Zhongfa looked at the enemy in front of him painfully, the Ming people not only intervened, but also intervened very deeply, just looking at their skillful cooperation with Ke Zhen, he could guess that He Weiping was also colluding with them. Things are moving in a direction that they can't control, and it's impossible to take down the East Gate.
"Retreat, retreat!" Li Zhongfa roared loudly.
