Chapter 210: The City Falls
The black clouds overwhelmed the city and wanted to destroy it, and the corpses in front of Jiangzhou City were all over the field, and it seemed that the sun couldn't bear to look at it directly, and hid in the black clouds. A moment later, a trickling stream of rain fell.
"My lord, there is no boiling water anymore." Sun Ke stretched out his hand to wipe the rain on his face, ran to Yuanhang, looked up at the sky, and the rain in the air was getting heavier and heavier, and it had become a line.
"Burn, keep burning with rain."
"The rain was so heavy that the water could not be supplied, and some were extinguished."
"Ah......" Yuanhang was shocked in his heart, how could he forget this, clenched his fist and smashed the wall, and said hatefully: "God really doesn't help me, it's already in winter but it's raining." ”
"Report the ......" The letter soldier hurriedly ran up to the city, and the voyage and Sun Ke looked back.
"Report to your lordship, Simon is in a hurry."
Yuanhang was shocked in his heart, strode forward and pulled the messenger, and asked, "How is the Ximen there?" ”
The soldier ran in a hurry, panting breathlessly, and was urged by the voyage to stammer.
"Simon...... General Qin...... It's almost impossible to hold on. ”
Yuanhang was so angry that he pushed away the letter soldier, turned around and shouted to Dao Zi: "Dao Zi, you take the meteor to the West Gate to support General Qin, you must defend the city." ”
Dao Zi's eyes widened angrily, and he ran down the city to the west gate in response, and the meteor ran out after him.
At the west gate, the Qin Dynasty was leading its troops to defend the city desperately, but there was no rolling wood thunder stone, and there was no boiling water to retreat the enemy, and some merchant troops had already attacked the city tower.
"Generals, Jiangzhou must not be lost in our hands, we will die here, and we will also defeat the enemy army." The Qin Dynasty was a man, although he was sometimes too cautious, but at this time he seemed quite arrogant.
"General Qin is right, fight with them." The two lieutenants beside him drew their swords, glanced at the Qin Dynasty, and took the lead in rushing towards the enemy troops in the city. Qin Chao picked up a single knife from the ground, pulled a knife flower, and rushed over with a loud roar.
Soldiers continued to fall on the wall of the west gate, and the rain dripped down the sink in the corner of the wall with blood. The Qin Dynasty rushed over with a brisk stride, and an enemy soldier swung a knife and slashed, and was pierced by him, moving his mouth and looking at the Qin Dynasty in distraction.
The Qin Dynasty was in charge of a lot, kicked the soldier away, stabbed him with a backhand, and chopped off the head of an enemy soldier, a stream of blood spurted out of the neck cavity, and the headless body fell backwards.
"Defend the city and slay the enemy." Qin Chao's eyes were tightly opened, his quiet face became very hideous, and he turned around to boost his morale.
The two lieutenant generals also followed, slashed with their knives, and killed people when they encountered them, and the Liang army behind them, under their leadership, rushed towards the enemy desperately.
"General Qin, don't panic, Dao Zi is here." A thunderclap rang out, and a sturdy figure blew by like the wind, and the scimitar in his hand swirled with the wind, cutting through the necks of one enemy soldier after another like cutting leeks.
Meteor climbed the tower, found a high place, and just put the arrow on the string, he saw a soldier on the right side being mixed with a corpse, lying on his back, and the enemy raised a single knife, about to cut down on this soldier.
"Medium." The meteor shouted, and just as the enemy's single knife was about to slash at the soldier's head, the arrow quickly detached from the string, and an arrow shot at the enemy's throat, piercing through.
When Qin Chao saw that a helper had come, he was happy, pointed at it with a single knife, and shouted: "Brothers, kill." ”
"Kill ......" the soldier responded, as if he had a lot of strength in his body, and he roared and fought.
Dao Zi has turned into a bloody man, dyed red with blood from top to bottom, and the scimitar is like a meat grinder in his hand, and wherever he passes, the knife takes people's lives.
"The general is not good, the city gate is lost." I don't know who shouted, Qin Chao hurriedly leaned on the inner wall and looked down.
"Oops." The Qin Dynasty saw that the enemy army had broken through the west gate and killed in, and the archers of the defenders on the streets below the city were drawing their bows and shooting hard.
"The city gate is lost, go to the rescue." Qin Chao glanced back and saw that his army on the tower of the city had already controlled the situation, so he hurriedly led people to rush to the city.
The soldiers of the merchant army broke through the west gate and had just rushed into the city, when a rain of arrows flew in front of them, and the soldiers who rushed to the front immediately became hedgehogs, and fell down with several arrows in their bodies.
"Rush over and into the city." An enemy general rode into the city, saw a line of archers facing him, threw himself on the back of his horse, turned the reins, and turned into the alley on the right.
The Qin Dynasty led troops to run down the city, and many merchant troops had poured into the city gate, rushing to the city tower, and the two armies fought on the stairs.
The merchant army attacked fiercely at the north gate, Sun Ke and Yuanhang gritted their teeth and defended it, and the merchant army had also come to the city, and the defenders of the north gate paid a heavy price. The blood on the tower was half a foot deep, and the rain was blocked by the corpses, and the dead soldiers lay in the water.
With a sword in one hand, Shadowless protected the voyage behind him, staring at the enemy in the fight.
"My lord, the west gate has been lost, and the enemy army has entered the city." A letter soldier rushed to report the news, and Yuanhang was stunned on the spot after hearing it, silently reciting in his heart: It's over, it's over, Jiangzhou is gone.
"My lord, let's get out of the castle tower first." Shadowless looked back and said.
Yuanhang glanced at the soldiers fighting in the city, and knew that it was unintentional to defend again, and when the enemy army attacked from the city, there was no way to retreat. After thinking for a while, he said to the letter soldiers: "Quickly go and inform the generals of each gate, and retreat after fighting, and assemble at the south gate." ”
The letter soldier turned around and ran, and Yuanhang called Sun Ke and told him to retreat to the south gate, and he was escorted by no shadow, went down the city tower, and ran to his garrison mansion.
In the garrison mansion, Yilan and Du Wen looked anxious and looked outside the courtyard from time to time. I don't know what happened to the castle tower, and the two of them paced back and forth in the house nervously.
"Sister, Xianggong will be fine, right?" Yilan knew that it was in vain to ask, but she couldn't help but pull Du Wen.
Du Wen shook her head and said lightly: "I don't know, the enemy army is overwhelming, and the prince is a strong man, but with the sword purple and no shadow, it should be fine, my sister is relieved." ”
"Alas, if you are in a hurry to die, you will not send a letter back." Yilan walked to the door again, leaning on the doorpost and looking outside.
"Yilan ......" Yuanhang hurriedly ran into the courtyard and ran over shouting Yilan's name.
"It's Xianggong." Yilan raised her eyebrows, glanced back at Yilan, and ran out to greet her.
Yuanhang ran over and hugged Yilan, kissed her on the face, let go and said hurriedly: "Jiangzhou is afraid that it will not be guaranteed, can you pack the package?" ”
Yilan nodded vigorously and replied, "It's already been cleaned up." ”
"Okay." Yuanhang looked up and saw that Du Wen also ran out, and hurriedly said: "Now follow me out of the city, the enemy army has attacked, don't care too much, leave here first." ”
Du Wen carried the package on her shoulder, handed another package to Yilan, and said, "Well, we'll go with you." ”
Yuanhang didn't say more, pulled her up and left, and the two maids of Sixin and Nianyou also followed behind with packages.
Out of the mansion, Wuying pulled a few horses and said to Yuanhang: "My lord, the car is inconvenient, so I have to ride a horse, can the two ladies know?" ”
Yuanhang looked back at Yilan and said to Wuying: "Wen'er will get it, Yilan has never ridden, so she will ride with me and go out of the city." ”
Wuying handed the reins to Yuanhang, Yuanhang turned over on the horse first, handed his hand to Yilan, Du Wen held it underneath, and Yilan got on the horse.
"Hold my waist and don't let go, or you'll fall." Yuanhang instructed Yilan, who answered softly and hugged him tightly behind him.
The two maids couldn't ride horses, so Tang Ling took Sixin, Du Wen took Nianyou, seven people and four horses, and drove towards the south gate.
Several defenders received orders and began to assemble at the south gate, and the enemy army attacked the city from each gate, moving the battlefield of fighting to the streets and alleys of the city.
Yuanhang and the others turned to South Street and saw that the street had become a battlefield, and the soldiers of the two armies were fighting desperately.
"My lord, go to Hulu Alley." Wuying couldn't see it, shouted, beat the horse and turned into the southwest alley, and Yuanhang hurriedly followed the horse.
Hulu Lane is only as wide as two horses in parallel, fortunately there is no enemy army in the alley, and there are no people, the horses can also run away, out of Hulu Lane, turn to the left, you can reach the South Street, go straight is the south gate of Jiangzhou.
was about to arrive at South Street, and suddenly rushed out of a group of soldiers from the horizontal, this group of soldiers originally wanted to cross Hulu Lane to go to the longitudinal street, and saw Yuanhang and others riding horses, stopped and turned around.
"Oh no, it's the merchant army." The voyage was startled and pulled the sunspot back.
"Don't stop, sir." Wuying shouted behind him, Yuanhang reacted, turned back to Yilan and said, "Hold it tight." After saying that, he clamped his legs hard, and Kuroko hissed and rushed towards the enemy with his hooves raised.
The merchant army was also stunned, and when he saw Yuanhang and others rushing over, one of them shouted: "Stop them and release the arrows." ”
Yuanhang clenched his teeth and bent down and rushed forward. Kuroko was so fast that before the enemy could take off the arrows, he had already rushed in front of the enemy, and the frightened enemy troops got out of the way one after another, so as not to be trampled to death by the horses' hooves.
Yuanhang rushed over, Wuying and Tang Ling also rushed over, but Du Wen didn't get by. A soldier stretched his spear forward and mixed it on the horse's leg, and the mount fell weightlessly forward, causing Du Wen and Nian You to fall from their horses.
"Shoot the arrows." One of the enemy soldiers shouted, and arrows flew behind Yuanhang and the others. Yilan closed her eyes in fear, hugged Yuanhang's waist tightly, and suddenly felt a burst of soreness, her arms lost her strength, and she leaned weakly on Yuanhang's back.
"The fifth young grandmother is surrounded, adults go to the south gate, I will save the fifth young grandmother." Wuying looked back and saw Du Wen falling, urging Yuanhang to go first, while pulling the mount, turning around and rushing back.
Yuanhang also stopped the mount, looked back at this side, thinking that except for Wuying, these people don't know martial arts, and staying can only add trouble to Wuying, although he was worried about Du Wen in his heart, he had to be ruthless in his heart, turned around and hit the horse hard, and ran towards the south gate.
Du Wen suddenly felt that her body was light, she threw herself forward, hurriedly twisted sideways, stood on the ground with a somersault, and took a few steps back. Nian You didn't know martial arts, so he really fell to the ground, and fainted directly without a sound.
As soon as Du Wen stood firm, the enemy army pounced. Du Wen kicked over a soldier, snatched the single knife over, and slashed it with a swing.
A person who looked like a general in the enemy army was stunned for a moment when he saw Du Wen, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't hurt this girl." ”
Du Wen also heard this, and wondered in her heart, why didn't they hurt me? Although he thought in his heart, he didn't stop in his hand, waving his knife to protect Nian Yu on the ground.
Shadowless rushed over, dismounted and slashed into the enemy. The general turned around and saw that the sword in the shadowless hand fell, and in just a few strokes, he cut down several soldiers, and he knew that this person was strong in martial arts, and after seeing the faceless face clearly, his face became ugly, and he said fiercely: "Release the arrow, kill this person here." ”
When the enemy soldiers heard the order, the soldiers flashed to the sides, and the archers drew their bows and arrows, and went over to the shadows.
Shadowless hurriedly swung his knife to block the arrow, the distance was too close, and a sharp arrow swooped down on his right arm, causing Shadowless to loosen his hand and the steel knife fell to the ground.
When the enemy saw that there was no shadow of the arrow, the weapon fell to the ground again, and he rushed up again with a hula, trying to capture him alive. Shadowless grabbed the arrow with his left hand, gritted his teeth, pulled it out, and threw it at the enemy.
"No shadow, go quickly, leave me alone." Du Wen slashed down an enemy soldier with a knife, shook his head and shouted to this side, his body moved, and he killed another enemy soldier.
Shadowless's right arm was numb, and he knew that he was no longer able to fight, and there were many enemy soldiers, and if he didn't leave, he was afraid that he would die here. He made up his mind and glanced at Du Wen, and ran a few steps to the left with light skills, directly over a courtyard wall, through the courtyard, and turned out from the other side. After discerning the direction, he ran towards the city, hoping to meet Liang Jun and come back to rescue Du Wen.
Although Du Wen has martial arts, after all, she is a female streamer and pregnant, and she feels that her breath is not enough after a fight. There are enemy troops all around, and there is no way out, so I have to grit my teeth and hold on.
A man flew down from the horse and kicked Du Wen in the wrist. Du Wen caught a glimpse of it, twisted her body to the left, and slashed it horizontally. The man's martial arts were not weak, he withdrew his right leg, and with a kick of his left leg, he was close to Du Wen's body, and raised his hand to hit Du Wen's wrist with a palm. Du Wen's hand was numb, and the single knife fell to the ground.
"Miss Du, don't fight anymore." The man took advantage of the situation and kicked the single knife away from the ground, stood up and looked at Du Wen lightly.
Du Wen covered her right wrist and looked over, only feeling that this person was familiar, but she couldn't remember seeing it there, and asked coldly, "Who are you?" How do you know my name? ”
"Haha, Miss Du forgot, you told me your name in Tiancang Pass." This person is Han Yu, the leader of the secret agents sent by Shang Guo in Tiancang Pass that day, and when he went to Tiancang Pass to buy a screen on that voyage, Han Yu had inquired about her. was beaten by Wuying at the Tianlai Inn, no wonder Fang ordered to shoot with arrows when he saw Wuying, because he wanted to avenge the beating.
"It's you, you're from Shangguo." At the mention of Korean, Du Wen remembered him, and looked coldly at him and stopped talking.
"Yes, I'm from Shangguo, but I won't hurt you, and you don't have to resist needlessly, I'll keep you safe." Han Yu knows that the third prince Cui Yan has taken a fancy to Du Wen, and now he has got her and gave it to the third prince, which is a great achievement, adding an important weight to his future future, why not be promoted.
Du Wen knew that she couldn't get away, and since he said that he wouldn't hurt herself, she first took advantage of the situation to agree, and then begged to get out.
"Don't hurt my maid." Du Wen glanced at Nian Yu on the ground, raised her head and said to Korean.
"Nature." Han Yu smiled and instructed the soldiers: "Go find the carriage and send Miss Du to Yanshun Mansion." ”
The third prince Cui Yan is now in Yanshun Mansion, and Han Yu is afraid that the time will drag on for a long time, so he hurriedly ordered someone to escort Du Wen back to Yanshun Mansion, as long as he is sent to the third prince, he can make meritorious contributions.
