Chapter Fifty-Six: Internal and External Attacks
A famous defender in Chaoxian County was waiting for him, and Wu Ji stood on the city wall and watched. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info looked at the endless night, but a trace of ominousness appeared in his heart.
The Yellow Turban Siege, is it a little too quiet tonight. The sky-high fire just now was clearly watched by himself and the others here, followed by the earth-shattering drums, but why was there no trace of them.
There was a knock on the door suddenly, followed by a familiar voice: "Father led the family soldiers to return to the aid and strayed into the ambush of the Yellow Turban, and his nephew Wu Hao begged his uncle to send troops to help immediately."
"This matter is urgent, and I ask my uncle to make a quick decision." Without waiting for Wu Ji to reply, the hurried voice outside the city came again.
Wu Ji couldn't help but be shocked, and walked quickly under the city wall.
Then there was a loud bang, and the gates opened. Torches shine the place as if it were daylight.
Wu Hao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Wu Ji coming with the defenders, thinking of the crisis faced by his father and brothers, he didn't have time to wipe the sweat from his forehead and hurriedly urged: "The situation is critical, please ask my uncle to rescue quickly."
"The Yellow Turban Bandits are ambushing their brother?". Seeing Wu Hao's anxious appearance, Wu Ji quickly sorted out this matter in his mind.
Wu Hao nodded heavily, and replied to Wu Ji: "If not, why did my nephew come in a hurry to report."
"Where did you go when the Yellow Turban struck? Do you know that your mother worries about your safety and can't sleep all night." Wu Ji thought for a moment, and then changed the topic.
Wu Hao couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he saw that Wu Ji didn't go out immediately. But he is an elder after all, so he honestly explained: "When the yellow scarf struck, my nephew happened to be outside the county. Thinking that it would be difficult to defend for a long time with the troops in the county, he went to Chaohu to urgently recover Wu Long and others and went to Guanzhuang to garrison, and sent Wu Hu to inform his father of the truth.
"Why would Wu Long obey your command?" Wu Ji continued to ask without thinking.
Wu Hao untied the sword at his waist and handed it to Wu Ji to watch: "The situation is urgent, I can only use this sword to hold them hostage and force them to come back."
"It is a gentleman's act to hold the sword hostage." Hearing the two words of hijacking, Wu Ji frowned slightly. If you want Wu Long to come back to help, why bother to use the blade, I was slightly displeased when I thought of this.
Seeing Wu Ji's expression, Wu Hao couldn't help but feel a little anxious: "Uncle, the situation is critical, and sending troops to help as soon as possible can make my Wu clan lose a little less vitality."
"Pass the order, point the three hundred defenders in the county, and immediately go to help." Wu Ji heard Wu Hao's prompt, suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart and commanded the soldiers behind him.
All the soldiers immediately bowed down and saluted Wu Ji: "No."
The two war horses were brought by the soldiers, Wu Ji looked at Wu Hao, and pointed at the war horse with his finger: "Take me and wait."
"No". Wu Hao bowed to Wu Ji, and then walked towards the war horse.
The two turned over on their horses at the same time, the war horse snorted heavily, and Wu Hao looked at Wu Hu: "You go back first, and report safety to my mother for me."
"Childe, be careful." Wu Hu replied to Wu Hao, with a worried look in his eyes.
Wu Hao nodded, and then slapped the horse's back heavily and galloped forward.
……
In the place of battle, the sound of swords and soldiers on both sides was endless. Although the strength of the Yellow Turbans was twice that of the Wu family soldiers, the Wu family soldiers were determined to die, so the two sides gradually fell into anxiety.
As time passed, the advantage of the Yellow Turban's strength gradually came into play, and a soldier named Wu fell in a pool of blood.
The leader of the yellow turban wiped the blood on his forehead, and glared at Wu Gu, Wu Fei and Wu Da fiercely: "If you surrender and arrest you, this leader can still leave you a whole corpse, otherwise the clan will be wiped out."
"In the past hundreds of years, I don't know how many people want to destroy my Wu clan, but what is the final result? The power of the family is beyond your imagination. Tonight I will advise you once, if you leave at this time, I will not blame the past, if not, if you wait for us and other families to join forces, you will surely turn into powder." Wu Gu looked at the head of the yellow scarf without showing weakness, and gasped back.
The Yellow Turban Leader seemed to have heard a great joke, and looked up to the sky and shouted: "Just because you dare to say it from the Wu clan of Chao County, let my Yellow Turban Heavenly Army turn into powder?"
"Chuan Bentou led the army to order, and immediately waved his army to attack the city after destroying this group of Wu family soldiers. After Chaoxian is broken, you can be slaughtered for three days, and see how he and the Wu clan will destroy us." Without waiting for Wu Gu and the others to speak, the leader of the Yellow Turban issued a military order to the Yellow Turbans who were still fighting.
The yellow turbans listened to this military order, and their breathing suddenly became a little shorter. It was as if there were endless treasures and beauties shaking in front of them, and one by one, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, they vigorously waved the weapons in their hands and pounced on their opponents again.
Three days of bloodbath? Wu Gu only felt a surge of anger, and his eyes instantly turned red: "Thief dares."
Wu Fei and Wu Da were furious in their hearts, and they held the blades in their hands and pounced directly.
Looking at the two people who were killed again, the leader of the yellow turban flashed a sneer: "I don't know what I can do, take them down for me left and right."
"Yes". The yellow scarves on the left and right sides heard the order of the head leader, gave up the opponent at hand and rushed in the direction of Wu Fei and Wu Da.
Wu Fei and the others saw the yellow scarves rushing towards them, so they could only meet them.
The sound of swords and soldiers intersecting sounded in his ears, and the Yellow Turban Leader saw that the night was gradually receding, and immediately stopped delaying. In front of the yellow scarves, there was another burst of encouragement: "The Wu family is about to fall, and Chaoxian is in front of you." If you don't fight the enemy now, when will you wait."
Hearing the leader's words, the yellow turbans thought of the wealthy beauties in Chao County, and their morale skyrocketed.
Although the Wu family soldiers were angry, they had no choice but to lack their strength and gradually lose their physical strength, and one accidentally fell in a pool of blood.
Wu Gu looked at the fewer and fewer soldiers in his family, and his heart was full of grief and indignation, and he looked around the ground and fell halfway.
Gripping the long sword in his hand, he pounced on the Yellow Turban Collar fiercely.
The eyes of the leader of the Yellow Turban had already noticed Wu Gu's actions, and he stepped back without thinking, avoiding this fatal blow: "The fall of the Wu clan is a foregone conclusion, why bother dying and struggling."
"Don't want to vent the morale of our army." Wu Gu swung his sword at the Yellow Turban Leader again.
Seeing Wu Gu attacking one after another, the leader of the yellow turban was annoyed in his heart, and looked at several leaders next to him.
The leaders all understood, and pounced with the weapons in their hands.
Wu Gu saw those yellow scarves rushing towards him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, is tonight destined to be the time when his Wu clan will be destroyed? .
Thinking of this, he raised the long sword in his hand with a resolute force to meet him.
At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves, followed by the sound of breaking the sky. Arrows swooped down on the yellow turbans in the night.
More than a dozen yellow turbans were caught off guard and fell in a pool of blood.
Dense footsteps came from behind the yellow scarf, and a regular army of Chao County wearing armor and holding a long sword and a hundred soldiers left behind by the Wu clan turned into a torrent and crashed into it.
The two sides have been fighting for a long time, and most of their physical strength has long been exhausted. At first, the Yellow Turbans gradually gained the upper hand by virtue of their superiority in strength. But at this time, the Chao County reinforcements arrived, and the morale of the Wu family soldiers skyrocketed instantly, but the morale of the Yellow Turban side plummeted.
Wu Hao and Wu Ji stopped their horses in the rear, watching the three hundred defenders rushing towards the place of battle, and each fell into deep thought.
