Chapter 69: Divine Soldiers Descend from Heaven
The conversion was not far from Xiongzhou, and then there were war horses to travel, and they arrived at the city of Xiongzhou before they fell.
Wu Ji ordered the team to stop and hide, and he, Zheng Tai, Huangfu Song, and Qi Dabao rushed to the city to investigate the situation. Looking at it from a distance, I saw that the gate of Xiongzhou was wide open, and there was not a single Liao soldier outside the city, only corpses and coagulated blood.
Wu Ji's heart was cold, it was even colder than the ice and snow under his feet, the more so, the more it showed that the war in Xiongzhou City was extremely unfavorable, and the Liao army was about to occupy the whole city.
"Whew!"
Mrs. Zheng thought the same way, exhaled a long breath, and said softly: "In this way, the situation in Xiongzhou is extremely bad, extremely bad." ”
"How's it going in the city?" Huangfu Song looked at it, his eyes widened, and he was very anxious.
No one knows this question, and there is no way to answer it.
"At least it hasn't fallen yet, we still have a chance." Wu Ji gave the answer: "If Xiongzhou falls, the city will be guarded by the Liao army, pull up the suspension bridge, and close the city gate." The city gate was wide open, and there was no Liao army on the city, which showed that the Xiongzhou army was still resisting. As long as Xiongzhou does not fall, we still have a chance. ”
"Yes!" Mrs. Zheng even claimed that it was.
"Commander Wu, it's time for us to do it." Qi Dabao looked at Wu Ji with a worried look on his face and inquired.
"There are Lao Qi heroes who send Qi Yun Society heroes to investigate, let's take a breath first, eat something, and then kill the city." Wu Ji thought for a moment and said: "This fight must take a long time, you have to eat and drink enough, and you must devote yourself to the battle with the most vigorous energy." Only in this way will we be able to defeat Liaogou. ”
"Hmmm! Commander Wu was right. Mrs. Zheng and the others would not have any objection to this, and they all agreed.
Qi Dabao sent the heroes of Qi Yunshe to ask them to find out the news, and specially advised them not to alarm the Liao army, he was preparing to fight the Liao army by surprise. The heroes of Qiyun Society took the order and left.
Wu Ji and the others returned to the team, gave an order, and began to eat dried meat and drink water. This jerky was captured by the Liao army, it was cold and hard, and it tasted like eating cold and hard ice blades. At this time, you can't boil water, you can only drink cold water, and it feels like falling into an ice cellar, chilling all over your body, and you can't stop shivering.
Despite this, no one complained, gritted their teeth and ate and drank. They all know that this is about the safety of Xiongzhou and the Central Plains. The common people are the most simple, and when they are needed, they will give their efforts, even if there is no return.
Wu Ji finished eating a piece of jerky with difficulty, his hands were stiff from the cold, and his face turned blue. Looking at Yang Xiuxiu again, her pretty face turned purple from the cold, but she bit her lip tightly and didn't say a word.
Holding her popsicle-like hand and looking at it, there were a lot of frozen bags, caressing it, Wu Ji asked, "Xiuxiu, you have to be careful, don't have an accident." ”
"Hmm!" Yang Xiuxiu nodded obediently, looked at Wu Ji, smiled lightly, and said, "Wu Lang, you have to be careful." ”
"I understand." Wu Ji knew her surname, if she died in battle, Yang Xiuxiu would definitely be martyred.
"Commander Wu, they're back." Qi Dabao walked over quickly, couldn't help but breathe in the cold air, followed by a few Qi Yun Club heroes who inquired about the news.
Without waiting for Wu Ji to ask, they talked about the situation in the city: "Commanded by Wu, Xiongzhou City has not fallen yet, and it is about to be." By now, Liaogou has occupied two out of three, and General Zhou Wei led the people to fight to the death. The Xiongzhou army and the people suffered countless casualties, and the city was full of corpses, congealed blood everywhere, and the smell of blood was disgusting. ”
As soon as they said this, these people began to vomit, their faces turned pale, and the yellow bile water vomited out.
They participated in the war of conversion, killed a lot of Liao soldiers, blood and gore are not the same thing for them, can make them vomit like this, you can imagine what the city has become like, how many people have died.
Mrs. Zheng, Wu Ji, Qi Dabao, and Huangfu Song looked at each other in shock, and their faces changed color.
"Go down and rest." Wu Ji waved people, and these people retreated.
"Commander Wu, how are we going to fight?" Mrs. Zheng looked at Wu Ji and asked.
"The situation in the city is extremely bad, we can't afford to put it down, we need to act now." Wu Ji's face was solemn, and he began to analyze: "We only have 3,000 people, and we don't have many troops, let alone divide the troops, so we must use them in a centralized manner." Only in this way can there be enough threat to Liaogou. ”
The division of troops is weak, and the concentration is strong, this is a very simple military principle. With the strength of Wu Ji's miscellaneous army, if it is scattered, it will not play a role at all, but it will be easy for the Liao army to be defeated. Only by concentrating can it pose a huge threat to the Liao army and relieve the siege of Xiongzhou.
Mrs. Zheng nodded slightly.
"Among our 3,000 people, there are more than 200 Returning Soldiers who can really rush and kill, and hundreds of heroes from the Qiyun Society can give some help." Wu Ji then dissected and said, "Therefore, we must make good use of these powers. I mean, the thunderbolt is left to the people. The Returning Army, the heroes of Qiyun Society, and Ding Zhuang took on the responsibility of protecting and preventing the Liao army from approaching, and if the Liao army came to attack, they would have to resist it to the death. Only in this way can we bring our combat strength into full play. ”
"Good calculation!" Mrs. Zheng was the first to agree: "I completely agree. ”
"I'm in favor of it too." Qi Dabao and Huangfu Song had no objections, and the matter was decided.
Wu Ji gave an order, everyone gathered, and the common people were in a team of ten people, and each team was led by a member of the Wu military industry, commanding them to use thunderbolts. The people of the Wu military industry know the thunderbolt best, and with their leadership, there will be no accidents. This was on the way to the march, and it had been arranged a long time ago.
"Brothers, fathers and fellow villagers: Liaogou has occupied two percent of Xiongzhou City, and only one percent is still in the hands of the Great Song Dynasty, Xiongzhou has reached the last moment, and the Central Plains are in danger! The heavy task of saving Xiongzhou falls on our shoulders, do you have confidence? Wu Ji spoke loudly.
"Yes!" Although it is only one word, it contains unshakable determination.
"The rescue of Xiongzhou this time is a great matter, but it is also dangerous, life and death are unpredictable, and those who do not want to go will not be reluctant!" Wu Ji then said: "If there is anyone who does not want to go, please leave!" It's not a shame, we're not going to laugh! ”
"Commander Wu, we swear to save Xiongzhou to the death!" No one left, all waving their arms and roaring loudly, exhilarating and excited.
"You have to think clearly. Especially for the old and the young, you have to think clearly. Wu Ji spoke loudly again.
"Figured it out! Swear to save Xiongzhou. A loud answer is the best answer.
Listening to their answers, Wu Ji's eyes were a little moist. What a good people this is, at the critical juncture of the Central Plains, no one has left, and many of them are old and young, and they still have not left.
This is the backbone of the nation!
This is the pillar of the Chinese nation that has stood for 5,000 years without falling!
"Save Xiongzhou!" Wu Ji's right hand clenched into a fist, raised it high, and roared.
"Save Xiongzhou!" The three people roared in unison, the sound was extraordinary, earth-shattering, and the earth was trembling.
"Let's go!" Wu Ji waved his right hand towards Xiongzhou City, led 3,000 people, and drove towards Xiongzhou City.
Three thousand, not much, but also men and women, this is an absolute ragtag army, a ragtag army that can't be more mixed. However, no one flinched, no one was afraid, there was only an indomitable determination! Some are just heroic in defeating the Liao army and saving Xiongzhou!
Wu Ji, Huangfu Song, Qi Dabao, and Zheng Tai walked in the front, waving their arms and shouting the slogan of "Save Xiongzhou", without hesitation.
The heroes of the Returning Army and Qiyun Society, Ding Zhuang, walked on the periphery of the team according to Wu Ji's steps, protecting the people in the middle.
Coming to the city, Wu Ji yelled "enter the city", and the team entered the city gate from the suspension bridge and from the moat, and poured into the city of Xiongzhou. At this time, the moat froze and there was no need for a drawbridge.
"Sizzle! Sizzle! ”
Wu Ji sniffed, and the strong bloody breath made his stomach tumble and almost vomit. Wu Ji also fought two battles, and he didn't feel the bloody gas, but the bloody gas in Xiongzhou City was too strong, every time he inhaled, it felt like he was drinking blood water, and even if Wu Ji endured it, he had to gag.
"It's so bloody!"
Zheng Tai, Huangfu Song, and Qi Dabao are also like Wu Ji, their stomachs are tumbling, and they may vomit at any time.
The common people couldn't stop screaming that they couldn't stand it, and some people even vomited, Wu Ji roared loudly: "Hold back!" Endure! If you want to kill the enemy, you can't vomit! ”
If you vomit when you kill an enemy, it is fatal. The people who reminded Wu Ji gritted their teeth and held back.
"Lots of corpses!" Zheng Taiyi looked at the situation in the city, and everywhere he looked, there were corpses, horizontal and vertical, layer upon layer, layer by layer, I don't know how many.
Wu Ji saw it in his eyes, it felt like firewood thrown on the ground, the ground was full of corpses, and every step he stepped on must step on the corpse, and it was impossible to step on the snow.
These corpses are from the Liao army, the Song army, and the people of Xiongzhou, and they are stacked together, and it is difficult to distinguish which one is the Song army, which one is the Liao army, and which one is the common people.
Although the two battles of conversion have achieved good results, compared with the current situation, one is in heaven and the other is on earth, and this is the Shura slaughterhouse, which is hell on earth.
"Oh my God!" Everyone was stunned, including Wu Ji.
With so many corpses and such a strong bloody atmosphere, if he hadn't experienced it personally, Wu Ji would not have believed that there was such a cruel battlefield.
"Xiongzhou fought hard!" Mrs. Zheng said a nonsense that didn't need to be explained, and her face was shocked.
The current situation is already the best commentary on the bloody battle in Xiongzhou, and there is no need to say it, but everyone, including Wu Ji, can't help but nod in agreement.
"Go to a place where there are many dogs!" Wu Ji ordered loudly.
"Commander Wu, where are there many Liao dogs? How do you know this? Qi Dabao was a little puzzled.
"Where there is more movement, there are the most Liao dogs." Mrs. Zheng broke it down.
The sound of shouting and killing, screaming, and the clashing of weapons was so earth-shattering that it sounded like thunder in the ears.
"There!" Wu Ji quickly judged it, waved his right hand, and led the team over.
Sure enough, I saw that there were crowds, and countless Liao troops were attacking an ice wall, and at a glance, they couldn't see the end at all, and they didn't know how many Liao troops there were, all of them looked like hungry dogs with bones.
"Thunderball, throw!" Wu Ji ordered loudly.
