Chapter 502: Life and Death Depend on Each Other

The West Gate is also finished.

Even if there was no prior arrangement, Tang An had to retreat, because the number of enemy troops was too large.

After more than ten days of bloody fighting, the forbidden army lost 5,000 lives in exchange for four times the enemy's casualties. However, the intervention of the main force of the Far Voyage to the East brought the number of rebels to more than 60,000. The demoralized Xixuanmen rebels were greatly boosted, and they were suddenly reborn.

This is an impossible war to win.

In order to avoid senseless sacrifices, after Tang An ordered people to release a few arrows symbolically, everyone gathered on West Avenue and began to run towards the palace in a neat manner.

Zhan Wushuang, who had long been holding back the fire in his belly, was extremely excited, swept away the previous way of commanding the battle in the rear, and rode his horse to rush to the forefront of the army. But when the huge gates were smashed open by siege engines and the rebels swarmed in, he was surprised to find that the force that had been so brave and tenacious was goneβ€”they did not even meet the slightest resistance.

I can't taste the pleasure of the enemy with my hand, and I am very disappointed.

On the contrary, the rebels were in ecstasy.

As if they had won the final victory, they entered the city as victors, looking around at the city that would be theirs.

They saw the wide and orderly road, the towers of high and low heights, the imposing palace, andβ€”damn it, the fleeing defenders!

"Lord Sangkoku, they want to escape!"

Dongfang Yuanxing rode on a horse, with a hint of disdain on the corner of his mouth: "Escape... Where can they flee? Hehe, go east, want to retreat to the palace? A bunch of stupid stuff. The old man gave them a clear way, but they didn't cherish it. When our three-way army forms a siege, the palace will no longer be their refuge, but a place to bury bones. ”

In the distance, he suddenly saw a figure among the defeated soldiers in the distance.

In the middle of a group of defenders, Tang An was like a duck being chased, swinging his legs desperately, for fear that he would be caught up by the rebels if he ran slowly.

It has to be said that his posture of running for his life ...... It's really ugly.

It is this person who brings indelible pain to himself. The scene of Yu Songnan being thrown from the city tower will never be forgotten when he travels far away from the East.

That was his last bloodline in this world, and now, his bloodline is gone, but the executioner is still alive!

Why is he still alive?

A trace of coldness flashed in Dongfang Yuanxing's eyes, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Tang An! ”

Tang An paused in response, looked back, and saw that he was about a few hundred meters away from the rebels, so he felt a little calmer, and shouted loudly: "Why do you want to kill me?" ”

The Oriental Journey was made amused by him. Doesn't he know that once he lets himself enter the city, he will be equivalent to stepping into the ghost gate with half a foot?

"Do you know why the old man insists on entering the city from the west?"

Tang An thought for a while and said, "Because you think your surname is not good." ”

East, West......

The Tang Forbidden Army laughed when he heard this, this Tang Lord can still talk and laugh at such a critical juncture, and his mockery skills are unmatched, no wonder Dongfang Yuanxing wants to kill him so much.

Dongfang Yuanxing was too lazy to play word games with him, and said word by word: "The old man said that the day the city is broken, it is when your head hits the ground!" The old man's reputation is also good, so even if he wants to enter the city, he must enter through this West Xuanmen. ”

As he spoke, he brushed aside the ragged guards around Tang An, and said with a smile: "You are my Tang Dynasty warriors, if you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, the old man should welcome it with open hands." ”

As he spoke, his dry index finger pointed at Tang An, as if that was the destiny of heaven.

"If anyone can capture him alive in front of the old man, the old man will have a heavy reward!"

A simple distraction plan is believed to be irresistible to the remnants of the troubled army. Hell on one side and heaven on the other, any intelligent person knows what to choose.

The Oriental Voyage thought that the olive branch he threw was tempting enough, and those fellows should hesitate for a short time, and then keep fighting for the only place - who would give up their lives and not live with glory and wealth?

It's a pity he was wrong.

Everyone in the forbidden army had a thick disdain on their faces, and even spit a mouthful of thick phlegm at him, shouting loudly: "The rebellion of the country, a thief through the ages!" With your old thing, you are also worthy of calling us Lord Tang's name? And 'there will be a great reward,' me! Save it to buy a coffin for you and your son! ”

Tang An was greatly appreciative when he heard this, and patted Ji Chen's shoulder as if encouraging: "Stinky boy, the skill of scolding has improved a lot." ”

Ji Chen smiled innocently and said flatteringly: "I've been messing around with my eldest brother for so long, and I've been a little contaminated with a little commotion... Oh, it's talent, talent! ”

Dongfang Yuanxing's face turned pale, and he said to the rebels around him: "The old man's words are also effective for us. Who can capture Tang Ansheng alive, and the old man will make him a general! ”

The rebels are not the same as the defenders. At first, they were forced to participate in the rebellion, and they were afraid at every turn. But today, they have become greedy wolves, hoping to use their military exploits to ascend to the sky in one step and reap the glory that was once unattainable.

Hearing that the Oriental Journey promised such heavy benefits, the rebels threw their red eyes at Tang An one by one, like a bull in heat.

At this time, Tang An is no longer a person in their eyes, but a mountain of gold!

Tang An raised his middle finger fiercely at the far distance to the east, and said loudly: "Fake squid!" Old thing, even if you chop Lao Tzu into mashed meat, your two sons won't survive! What, do you want Lao Tzu to bury them? Come and catch me, you can catch me. But I've designed a lot of traps along the way, so you have to be careful. ”

Ji Chen whispered, "My lord, are there really many traps?" ”

"There's a fart, Lao Tzu him!"

Although he knew that he was trying to provoke himself, he still felt uncontrollably angry when he heard him poke at the softest sore spot in his heart.

His eyes were like wolves on the grassland, staring at Tang An fiercely, and said word by word: "Remember, I want to catch it alive!" ”

"Catch him!"

A burst of cheers exhausted the hearts of all the rebels. All the rebels rushed up like waves rushing to the shore.

Seeing that the enemy rushed over brandishing his weapon like crazy, Ji Chen swallowed his saliva and asked, "My lord, what now?" ”

Tang An took a deep breath: "What else can I do?" Run! ”

Hating the iron and not making steel, the two stunned glances at each other, Tang An didn't say a word and ran towards the direction of the imperial city.

"This idiot!"

In the carriage behind, Su Mei'er poked her head out and saw Tang An following a large group of people to escape with an embarrassed appearance, and her heart was extremely complicated. A pair of charming eyes kept flickering, as if they were thinking of some countermeasures......

Looking at Tang An's back as he ran farther and farther, Zhan Wushuang's face was extremely gloomy.

He is eager to prove himself, and he wants to kill this bastard who has taken his beloved with a single sword. However, the 40,000-strong army attacked day and night, but it could not conquer the army led by Tang An. This frustration made him extremely depressed, as if he was a loser in love or on the battlefield.

The man who brought him humiliation was ahead, but unfortunately he only had two legs, while Zhan Wushuang rode a horse.

He shook the reins and said to Dongfang Yuan beside him: "Xiangye, the last general will go and take other people's heads!" ”

"Heyβ€”"

Dongfang Yuanxing grabbed Zhan Wushuang and said with a smile: "You, you, are all about to be crowned kings, why haven't you been qualitative?" As a general, when strategizing thousands of miles away, how can there be a reason to charge ahead in everything? ”

A trace of unwillingness flashed on Zhan Wushuang's face: "But he ......"

"Nothing. He killed the old man's child, and the old man is not in a hurry, why are you so anxious? ”

Dongfang Yuanxing stroked his beard, and looked like he was in control: "No matter how fast he runs, the final result is the same." When the little strength left in the palace saw the troops guarding the city gate fleeing back in embarrassment, how could they have the momentum to fight to the death? ”

Refusing to let go of any slight opportunity to hit the opponent is the style of a person who has achieved great things. Zhan Wushuang nodded thoughtfully and said in admiration: "Wushuang has been taught." ”

"If the Golden Sword Warrior can have a talented and modest descendant like you, the spirit of the old general in the sky can rest in peace." Dongfang Yuanxing smiled slightly, his eyes chased Tang An, who was stumbling and almost fell, and pouted: "Look at how much he runs like a dog......"

********************************

Outside the West Xuanmen, it has become a purgatory on earth.

Charred ladders, arrows stuck in the frozen ground, flagpoles broken from them, siege chariots smashed by stones, and mountains of corpses.

No one can remember who they are, only this land that will be trampled by countless people in the future can remember the blood that was once buried.

"Phewβ€”"

Between the mountains of corpses and the sea of corpses, a horse galloped far away.

Cheng Caixi, who was carrying a sword on his back first, reined in the reins and stopped in front of the moat, his pretty face was pale and terrifying.

Liu Qinge behind her had long hair like snow, her smart eyes were instantly filled with tears, her white jade hands covered her mouth, and she shook her head and said, "How can this be, how can this be!" ”

Cheng Caixi is no better, and the extremely miserable scene in front of him is already the best illustration: the Tang army was defeated, and the army led by Tang An... Defeated!

As if it was difficult to accept the cruel reality, Liu Qingge's eyes darkened, and the whole person fell off the horse.

"Singing!"

Cheng Caixi's eyes were quick, he grabbed her in his arms, and gently pinched her person, and the latter woke up slowly.

Opening his eyes a little confused, Liu Tingge held the eldest lady's cold hand tightly, and the beauty was clustered into a "eight" character that I saw pitiful: "He's fine, right?" You tell me - tell me he's alive! ”

Cheng Caixi couldn't bear it anymore, tears flowed down her eyes, but she still nodded strongly, and said, "He will definitely be fine!" ”

"Yes, he's so smart, how could something happen?" Liu Qingge wiped the tears on his face and pointed to the open gate: "He must have retreated to the city, let's go to the city to find him!" ”

Cheng Caixi's heart is like a knife, although he is strong, but there are eggs under the nest?

Thinking about the scene where he came to the prison of the Criminal Department to save himself regardless of life and death, the eldest lady gritted her teeth and said, "You are right, he will definitely be fine!" Singing, there may be a lot of rebels in the city, are you afraid? ”

Liu Qingge smiled miserably: "What else are people afraid of who are not even afraid of death?" ”

The eldest lady said arrogantly: "Okay, then let's kill it together!" ”

"Wait!" Liu Qingge paused suddenly, took a deep breath, and said, "Sister, what if...... I mean if! If Tang An is really gone, I hope you can promise me to hold on to your useful body, kill Dongfang Yuanxing in the future, and avenge us! ”

Cheng Caixi's face was serious and said, "First, I firmly believe that he is still alive. He can survive such a danger in the Western Regions, how can this difficulty be difficult for him? Second, since you call me sister, I have no reason to abandon you. To be born we are born together, to die, we are also to die together! ”
