Chapter 305: Persistence
The Southern Prison Army has completely wiped out the two wings, lost the cover of the two wings, the ranks of the Southern Prison Army began to press on a large scale, and the queue of the Zhangye Army in the middle of the road immediately fell into an embarrassing situation, they not only had to resist the Southern Prison Army rushing up on the road, but at the same time, after the strongholds on the houses on the two wings were taken away, the two wings were occupied by the Southern Prison Army, and they were entrenched on the buildings of the houses on the two wings and shot condescendingly at the defenders.
The tide has turned!
The people around Luo Xingtian kept falling, and although the soldiers under him were still struggling to hold their bows and shoot arrows, everyone was already hanging colors, but under Luo Xingtian's control, they could still maintain their retreat. There were less than twenty people under Luo Xingtian, and several of them were already injured and lying on the ground.
Luo Xingtian's guards struggled to block the flying arrows, only to see that the Southern Prison Army was almost about to push away the last few obstacles on the street. ”
"Alas!"
Luo Xingtian sighed in his heart: Is the sky going to kill my Zhang Ye?
He looked around him, his men had squeezed out all their strength, these soldiers who fought bravely to kill the enemy, the blood courage inspired by themselves, here with the inferior number and the Southern Prison Army insisted on resisting until now, many soldiers hiding on the two wings, in the struggle with the rebels, even fought to the last moment, and some people almost died with the enemy, and no one retreated and surrendered.
"Faster, faster......"
In Zhangye City, an angry shout sounded, and behind it was a large group of cavalry, like a sea tide, rushing towards this end of the city gate frantically.
What the hell is going on?
The man at the head can faintly see Mars between his eyebrows, he is the deputy general of Zhangye City, responsible for guarding the other gate, tonight is safe and sound, he is also peaceful, but he has not been idle for long, he saw the smoke billowing on the city head of Luo Xingtian, shouting and killing, which really made him a little uneasy.
It's just that his city is calm, but it makes him puzzled, the city is crying and shouting, it looks as if the city has been broken, he is really unreassured, and then he rushed towards the city with his men and horses, he didn't know that at this moment, Luo Xingtian was already at the end of the crossbow, and he couldn't hold on anymore.
"Brothers, kill!"
Luo Xingtian was shaky, and when he saw that the Southern Prison Army was about to kill in front of him, he finally laughed miserably, and at this moment. I really can't squeeze out even a little more power!
He knew very well in his heart that the two sides were fighting for time now! The Southern Prison Army broke into the city, and it must be seized to rectify and receive more Southern Prison Army from outside, which will take time! And on their own side, it will take time to gather the soldiers and horses in the city to organize a counterattack! Now it's a matter of who moves faster on both sides!
"He is Luo Xingtian, kill him, reward a thousand gold, and the official will be promoted to three levels!"
I don't know who shouted, everyone in the Southern Prison Army looked at Luo Xingtian, and then they were all stunned, silent for a moment, and then they all showed a crazy gaze, like a hungry wolf!
"Daughter?"
Luo Xingtian shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly, once upon a time, his head was also valuable, but he clenched the long knife in his hand in an instant, this thousand gold is not something anyone can get, a group of local chickens and dogs, not worthy!
"They want Lao Tzu's head, you say, should I give them to?"
Luo Xingtian turned his head, his words were as soft as a spring breeze, and the remaining guards behind him were crazy, they all struggled and stood up, with crazy battle intent in their eyes.
"Kill them, kill them!"
A soldier trembled and said this, and then he was about to kill the South Prison Army on the opposite side in a frenzy, and the other soldier also roared, grabbed the soldier, and grinned: "What's the hurry, on the Huangquan Road, I don't miss you, Lao Tzu will go with you!" ”
"Let's go, brothers, Lao Tzu will take you to kill!"
Luo Xingtian also laughed, and then led a group of soldiers to staggering and killing, as if climbing up from the Shura Hell, and killed the Southern Prison Army with a hideous face.
"Kill!"
A leader of the Southern Prison Army saw that Luo Xingtian had run out of oil, and then he shouted violently, and killed Luo Xingtian, and he could get a thousand gold.
Just when Luo Xingtian was already desperate, on the street behind him, the sound of horses' hooves that he was looking forward to finally came! The sound of hurried horses' hooves came, followed by the whining horn of Zhangye's army!
Luo Xingtian was suddenly shocked! Then he raised his sword and shouted: "Our reinforcements have arrived!" Defeat the enemy now! Brothers who can still move, fight forward with me, kill them, and see who can get my head, haha! ”
He quickly raised his long knife, roared and pounced on his head. The remaining defenders on both sides threw away their bows and arrows, grabbed their weapons and caught up, Luo Xingtian's two guards naturally caught up with Luo Xingtian a long time ago, and firmly protected their main general on the left and right, because Luo Xingtian was their last hope, if Luo Xingtian died, their insistence would be meaningless.
The sound of horses' hooves behind him was urgent, and they had finally galloped into the streets! In the darkness, I don't know how many reinforcements there are, these exhausted defenders heard the cavalry around them whistling one by one, with a strong wind!
The two sides have been holding each other for such a long time, although the team of the Southern Prison Army is quite numerous, but after all, the cavalry has stopped on the street, and at this moment the reinforcements of the defenders have arrived. In the darkness, only the sound of horses' hooves could be heard, and it was not known how many cavalry rushed up.
Luo Xingtian rushed to the front, he was the most experienced, and he and his subordinates pushed away the obstacles blocking the road, clearing the way for the cavalry behind him to charge.
Seeing that the cavalry team rushed forward, they immediately rushed into the ranks of the rebels! Although the rebel army is also cavalry, it is all stalemate on the road, while the cavalry on the defending side is flooded with horses, and once the cavalry rushes up, the impact force is several times?
On the bloody long street, the reinforcements of Zhangye City frantically killed the Southern Prison Army, and in the darkness, there was a sound of people turning over on their backs, war horses neighing, people shouting wildly, swords coming and going, and flesh and blood flying.
The team of the Southern Prison Army had originally dispersed, but at this moment, it was rushed by the cavalry from Zhangye City, and it had lost its formation and began to disperse, although the small leader of the Southern Prison Army still wanted to command the resistance, but the momentum had fallen, and he barely fought for a while, and finally retreated.
Corpses and ownerless horses were left on the streets, and broken swords and crossbows were everywhere. Luo Xingtian had already lost his strength and sat on the ground. He originally looked excited, but as this support army went up, one by one the war horses roared past him, Luo Xingtian's originally fiery eyes became cold little by little! One of his hearts sank to the bottom!
There are too few people! It's too few, just such a few people, not to mention blocking the Southern Prison Army, it is also difficult to protect oneself, and when Qin Tianzhao's army drives straight into Zhangye, there will be no more chance.
The arrival of this support army finally killed the cavalry of the Southern Prison Army, but this Southern Prison Army was only a small vanguard force sent over. Although the reinforcements in Zhangye City killed the advance troops of the Southern Prison Army, Luo Xingtian knew that this kind of defeat was only temporary, he had led the troops for many years, how rich was his experience in fighting?
