Chapter 1754: Soldiers Descend on the City
Xuanyuan Shengcai killed two people in a row, simply and neatly, Ye Jun also reacted quickly, and when Xuanyuan Shengcai made a move, he had already roared angrily and rushed to the stone gate first.
The three hundred cavalry were already ready to go, just like a taut bowstring, and when the opportunity came, these three hundred well-trained warriors were already like three hundred wolves staring at their prey for a long time, and they broke out in an instant.
Everyone was already drawing their swords in their hands, and followed Ye Jun towards the stone gate.
The three hundred soldiers, the realization of nature has already been divided into a detailed division of labor, and the three hundred people are carefully divided into ten squads, each team has thirty people, no matter what the situation, these thirty people will advance and retreat together, never give up.
Ye Jun only asked one team to stay at Shimen, that is, thirty people, and before that, the division of tasks among the teams had been assigned in detail.
At this time, the most surprising thing was naturally the guards on duty in the aisle, there were not many soldiers guarding the aisle, but there were more than 30 people, who saw the northwest soldiers sleeping soundly, who knew that in an instant, it turned into a group of vicious wolves, most of these guards were stunned, and they didn't react for a while, but they already shouted shrewdly: "It's not good, these people are traitors, don't be afraid, kill them!" ”
In the shouting, four or five people had already reacted and rushed up and slashed.
Three hundred cavalry are in the middle of the aisle at this time, more than 30 defenders are scattered all over the aisle, and even scattered at both ends, and the middle adds up to less than ten defenders, although it is fierce, but the number is out of absolute disadvantage, most of the northwest troops rushed to the side of Shimen, one of the small teams has been allocated in advance to deal with these defenders, and how are the scattered few defenders who are the opponents of these elite soldiers in the northwest, just in a moment, five or six defenders are already lying on the ground.
Xuanyuan Shengcai had already completely opened the stone gate, the stone gate was not spacious, and there were only three or four people walking side by side, Ye Jun had already rushed to the edge of the stone gate, and said in a deep voice: "The last pair stays, hold the stone gate with me, and the other teams follow General Xuanyuan to take the organ room!" ”
Xuanyuan Sheng knew that time was pressing, and there was no time to delay, he glanced at Ye Jun in the stone gate, and said in a deep voice: "Ye Jun survived!" ”
Ye Jun arched his hand and smiled: "General, take care!" ”
Xuanyuan Shengcai did not hesitate anymore, holding a big knife in his hand, taking the lead, and the soldiers behind him were like wolves and tigers, following closely behind, and quickly entered, when Xuanyuan Shengcai led nine teams of men and horses to enter, the last team of soldiers was already in the stone gate to form a semi-arc barrier, and there were already defenders at both ends who were rushing to this side.
"Come in!" Ye Jun commanded in a deep voice, although the thirty soldiers stood and killed several defenders, but there was no casualty, retreated to the stone gate, Ye Jun was the last to enter, before the guards pounced, the stone gate had been closed and blocked outside.
Inside the stone gate, there is a long stone path, close to the stone gate on both sides of the wall, there are two ledges, lit a fire, the fire illuminates this stone path very brightly.
Thirty people were in this stone road, it was quite crowded for a while, Ye Jun commanded in a deep voice: "A group of four, divided into eight groups, let's form eight walls with our bodies, brothers, I don't say, you also know the importance of this gate, if it is lost and robbed by the defenders, even if our reinforcements enter the pass, they will not be able to enter it, Xigu Pass will still not be able to be captured, and General Xuanyuan and those hundreds of brothers will also be sealed in the pass, and there is no possibility of survival!" ”
Everyone looked at Ye Jun, and all of them looked solemn.
"I have just told General Xuanyuan that even if there is only one person left, and there is only the last breath left, we must guard this door!" Ye Jun smiled, "Everyone, you are all men from the Northwest, you have a promise, we can't lose our trust in General Xuanyuan, what do you think we should do?" ”
"Defend the stone gate." Everyone said in a deep voice: "There is one breath left, this stone gate is ours!" ”
Ye Jun didn't say anything more, waved his hand, and the soldiers moved quickly, and immediately in groups of four, inside the stone gate, every three or four steps, they formed a human wall.
Ye Jun was in the center, also in the array, he listed several soldiers who were good at bows and arrows in the second and third columns, and those with great sword skills were listed in the first array, and he was supposed to meet in the first column, but the soldiers persuaded Ye Jun to sit in the middle.
Everyone actually knows in their hearts that they will soon face a brutal fight, of course the defenders will recapture Shimen at a cost, and the troops sent are definitely ten times that of their own, and everyone present, I am afraid that there are not a few who can survive, and those who are facing the battle head-on are of course more than lucky, Ye Jun is now the backbone of this team, once it is lost, the morale will inevitably be greatly frustrated.
Ye Jun naturally understood this truth, and did not insist.
He was already determined to die, in front of him and in the back, there was no difference, he just hoped that before the arrival of the army, he could do his best to defend the stone gate.
The four warriors in the front row, holding the big knife in their hands, looked resolute, and the two columns behind them, bent their bows and arrows, aimed at the front, Ye Jun and the others were all wide-eyed, holding the big knife tightly.
Xuanyuan Shengcai through the guò pattern map, has already entered the road into the organ room to remember the melon is very familiar, in fact, although the road in the belly is narrower, but it is not complicated, he takes the lead, the foot is fast, the soldiers behind him are like wolves and tigers, close behind, where they pass, but there are guards, before they can react, Xuanyuan Shengcai has not hesitated to step forward and slash and kill.
At the juncture, He Changqing held a long knife in one hand and put the other hand on the battlement, the soldiers were already ready, looking at the cavalry corps in the distance was moving quickly, but there was a deathly silence above the pass.
Seeing that the cavalry was getting faster and faster, the black and oppressed northwest cavalry was all over the road, and the rumbling hooves of the horses made the earth tremble slightly.
"Catapult ready!" He Changqing raised his sword and said sharply: "Listen to my command and fight again, don't waste stones!" ”
The catapult had been loaded with boulders, and the soldiers operating the catapult looked solemn.
The defenders on the edge of the wall looked at the northwest cavalry swarming like ants from afar, although they knew that the wall of the West Valley Pass was thick and strong, and it was an insurmountable moat, but at this moment there was still some commotion in their hearts.
Such a strong cavalry corps has not been seen for many years.
He Changqing was still holding his war knife high, his eyes were like knives, and he said in a deep voice: "Ready, get ready, enter the firing range, hit me, and kill these Northwest people!" ”
The order flag on the side has been waved, and the soldiers who have been waiting for the battle for a long time do not hesitate anymore, and in the shouting and cheering, dozens of catapults have been started, and the boulders are like raindrops, whistling out of the pass, and like meteorite meteors flying from the sky, they smashed heavily into the northwest cavalry that was charging forward.
The horses neighed, the people turned over on their backs, and the boulders thrown by the catapults fell into the cavalry and horses, and the cavalry formation was scattered immediately, and more than a dozen war horses were lost in an instant.
It's just that the speed of the cavalry team has not slowed down because of this, and it is still charging towards the side of Xigu Pass at great speed.
The soldiers at the juncture loaded the stones extremely quickly, and the boulders flew out of the pass, and the archers on the edge of the wall were already on the bow, and the longbow was like a full moon, aiming at the northwest cavalry, the distance was still far away, He Changqing did not pass down the order, and the soldiers were all ready to fight.
For the losses suffered, the Northwest Army was obviously mentally prepared, the boulder roared, the cavalry team has also been rapidly deployed, the dense boulder continuously, many cavalry companies with horses were hit by the boulder, smashed into meat sauce, as the cavalry advanced rapidly, the defenders heard the mountain shouting tsunami-like shout, mixed with the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, the earthquake shook the mountain.
While He Changqing commanded the defenders to attack the rushing northwest cavalry, he prayed in his heart that Guan Lei could defend the organ room and block the threat of Xuanyuan Shengcai.
Guan Lei was rushing towards the organ room in a hurry at this time, passing along the way, but there were soldiers who immediately gathered over, and before they arrived at the organ room, more than 200 people had gathered around him.
"There are two hundred brothers guarding the chamber, and they can hold out for a while." Guan Lei said in a deep voice: "Xue Meng, if nothing happens, Xuanyuan Shengcai will definitely leave people to guard the stone gate, he has only three hundred people in total, if he wants to seize the organ room, he will inevitably divide his troops to come, and there will be no more than a hundred people on the side of the stone gate." You bring one hundred and fifty people over first, and I will continue to deploy troops to support you, and no matter what, you must also keep the stone gate in your hands! ”
One of the generals immediately said, "The last general understands." He said loudly: "Come with me!" ”
At that moment, one hundred and fifty soldiers were divided and followed Xue Meng to rush towards the stone gate, Guan Lei looked at the dozens of people around him, pointed to several of them and said in a deep voice: "A few of you give the order to go down, the guards everywhere, after hearing the order, immediately support the organ room, and the others, all come with me, and they must not be allowed to snatch the organ room!" ”
Guan Lei did not delay, led dozens of people to quickly rush to the organ room, turned a stone road, but saw that the front was dark, the fire on the wall had been extinguished, faintly saw the figure in front of him flickering, and knew that it must be Xuanyuan Shengcai's hands that extinguished the lights, and the road in front of him was the only way to the organ room.
He held the knife in his hand and said sharply, "Brothers, follow me!" "Roared, the first to rush forward, in the dark, a group of people have also roared forward, the two sides met at first glance, no nonsense, the shot is to slash and kill, in the narrow stone road, the soldiers on both sides are crowded together, regardless of a qiē rush forward to kill, the knife light flies, screams again and again, the smell of blood will be filled in the narrow stone road in a moment.
