Chapter 486 Night Battle South Gate

A small colonel beside Long Shan quickly stepped forward, and sure enough, he saw the corpses of Dali soldiers staggered on the ground not far in front of him, and the junior colonel quickly turned around and shouted: "Commander, enemy attack, ...... quickly."

Seeing this, Tian Xiuyan immediately picked up a spear from the ground, used his right hand forcefully, and shot straight out. Before the colonel could finish speaking, he didn't have time to react before his body was pierced by the spear.

Hu Dun was furious, raised his breath and said loudly: "Longshan, sound a warning." ”

Long Shan knew that the matter was urgent, and without saying a word, he immediately retreated more than ten steps back and sounded a war drum on the city wall.

At the same time, Hu Dun and his guards held weapons and rushed towards Tian Xiuyan and the others.

As the commander of the Mongols, Khudun had 200 guards under him, and the more than 30 guards on the city wall were the best among them. Although the number is less than the other party, Hu Dun does not care at all, first, he has absolute confidence in the martial arts of his subordinates, and second, this Dali City is still under his own control, as long as he holds on for a while, there will be reinforcements to arrive.

One hundred Song troops, under the leadership of Tian Xiuyan, fought with Hu Dun and others.

Although they were three times larger than the enemy, this group of climbing-good Song troops were inferior to each other in terms of force, and they came from various units, and they were not very skilled in fighting with each other, so they could only fight with the enemy army.

Soldier to soldier, general to general, Tian Xiuyan and Hu Dun are in one place. Kudun is good at horse warfare, and has rich experience in facing the enemy, and after a few moves, he has seen that without the help of war horses, the opponent's foot combat martial arts are still above him. Kudun judged the situation and knew that his side only needed a little persistence, and the reinforcements would arrive.

Although Tian Xiuyan, who was proficient in foot combat, had a slight upper hand, it was difficult to defeat him in a short time under the swing of Kudun's broadsword.

Hu Dun is clear about the current situation, and Tian Xiuyan is also clear that the longer the time, the more unfavorable it will be to his side. Kudun's knife was sinking, although most of the knife techniques he used were defensive moves, but the gusts of wind brought out between the swings of his blades were very sharp, so that Tian Xiuyan couldn't be distracted and thought otherwise.

After more than ten rounds, the two of them heard a shout of killing from far and near, and the faces of Kudun and Tian Xiuyan changed at the same time, but they were two diametrically opposed changes, one happy and one worried. Fortunately, the Song army on the city wall gradually gained the upper hand by virtue of its large numbers.

Tian Xiuyan was in a hurry, and the spear in his hand suddenly exerted force, making a move to "bitter and sweet", but he saw that seven spear flowers suddenly appeared, and through the light of the sword of Kudun, they went straight into it. Hu Dun knew so well that he couldn't stop them all, so he took a few steps back, and only then did he exhaust the momentum of the seven spear flowers.

Taking this opportunity, Tian Xiuyan raised his breath and shouted: "All the soldiers, scatter into the city and break into pieces. ”

At this time, many places in Dali City suddenly ignited fires, the weather was dry, and soon, thick smoke was billowing everywhere. Tian Xiuyan knew that this was the Duan Donglou Department lurking in Dali City that had begun to act.

Hu Dun took a breath, and instead of chasing Tian Xiuyan who had escaped, he ordered: "Long Shan, you immediately send people to the four gates of the new city to strictly prevent the enemy from seizing the gates, if it is only this hundred-man team to enter the city, it will not be a big problem." Ben Shuai goes to the north gate, you go to the south gate, these two are the closest to the west city wall, if more enemies sneak in, the north and south gates of the old city are the most important. ”

"Yes, Marshal."

As the saying goes, the fortune of the country is prosperous, all industries are prosperous, and the will of heaven still exists in the dark. Kudun's judgment was completely correct, there were indeed other Song troops who infiltrated the city, and the purpose was to seize the city gate, but when choosing, they did not get their immortal favor, if Hudun went to the south gate, maybe the outcome would be different.

For the choice of the south and north gates, the probability is comparable, and at this time, it depends on whether luck is with it.

After Long Shan finished arranging, he immediately ran down the city wall and headed south single-handedly.

The old city of Dali is not big, and at the speed of Longshan, it takes only a quarter of an hour from the west city wall to the south gate. Unfortunately, as soon as Long Shan stepped down the city wall, he was targeted by Tian Xiuyan, who had left earlier.

Let's say that Duan Donglou took 400 Song troops to pick up the path and quickly came to the vicinity of the south gate. Duan Donglou, who was familiar with the terrain, summoned the four captains and arranged in a low voice: "Everyone, it seems that the enemy has not noticed it yet, after a while, I will step forward from the front and assassinate the twenty guards in the city gate, after that, the fourth team will immediately open the door and send a signal to answer General Lou, the fifth team will follow me in front of the city gate to block the enemy, the first team will go up from the left, and the third team will go up from the right. ”

"Yes, General."

"Yes, action."

More than a dozen soldiers who had changed into the battle armor of the Dali Army, under the leadership of Duan Donglou, swaggered towards the city gate.

Long Shan was alone and familiar with the terrain of the city, and although he set off a little late, he arrived almost at the same time as Duan Donglou's troops.

"Fortunately, there is nothing wrong at the South Gate." When he was about to reach the city gate, Long Shan looked at the quiet city gate in the distance, breathed a long sigh of relief, and was about to step forward, when he saw hundreds of figures suddenly appear in the darkness, quietly touching the city gate.

"No, these people don't look like our soldiers, they're all dressed in black, huh? It's not good......" Long Shan suddenly remembered that the enemy soldiers who appeared on the west city wall were dressed like this, and when he was about to shout a warning, he felt a soft shout suddenly came from behind him: "Thank you for leading the way." ”

"Leading the way?" Before Long Shan could react, he died with a whimper.

Tian Xiuyan, who had no guide and had never been to Dali City, naturally did not recognize the road, so he followed all the way, and only when Longshan wanted to call out did he shoot him dead. If it was Hudun, Tian Xiuyan could also follow him to the south gate, but he didn't have the ability to stop him from calling.

In the dim light, the Dali army inside the city gate couldn't see who the more than ten people who suddenly appeared were who, and they could only see that the military uniforms of these people were the same as theirs.

Duan Donglou said in the standard Dali dialect: "Brothers, I am the general in the mansion of the chief manager, and I have come to inspect the defense of the city gates on the orders of the lord, so as not to be attacked by the enemy. ”

"It turned out to be in the governor's house, no wonder I looked at it." For the first humane.

"It seems that the south gate is safe and sound, the brothers have worked hard, and when I go back, I will tell the chief steward that I will give the brothers a tooth sacrifice." Duan Donglou said as he casually took a few steps forward.

"Thank you very much. No, stay, stay, this is a forbidden area, I said......" The leader wanted to stop Duan Donglou from moving forward, but as soon as he said a few words, he found that there was an extra dart on his throat, and then his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.

Duan Donglou's long sword in his hand, the fierce tiger of the lower mountain rushed directly into the city gate, and stabbed it with a crackle. More than a dozen soldiers who rushed in with Duan Donglou immediately launched a massacre, all of whom were good hands, and in a few breaths, they wiped out the twenty guards in the city gate.

However, someone still let out a roar before dying, and this scream finally alarmed the other defenders.

Duan Donglou hurriedly said: "Quick, open the city gate." ”

Just when the fourth squad was about to open the city gate, many Yuan troops guarding the south gate had already rushed to the city gate, and the fastest movement was a Mongolian hundred-man team, which took the lead in melee with Duan Donglou and others. A moment later, the Mongol commander who guarded the south gate, Commander Dehua Taiji, led three hundred Mongolian elites to the city gate and surrounded Duan Donglou and others.

Although Duan Donglou and others formed a formation and resisted desperately, it was still difficult to stop, and gradually, the encirclement became smaller and smaller, but fortunately, the Mongols could only fight on foot, otherwise, the defensive formation of the Song army would have been rushed to pieces.

Duan Donglou hurriedly put his long sword into the sheath, picked up a spear on the ground, and rushed to the forefront of the team, using the gun as a stick, all the methods used were sticks, and he tried his best to sweep a large area, and after three consecutive moves, he temporarily stabilized the formation, so that the enemy did not dare to step forward.

Duan Donglou, who appeared in his true face, was not recognized, and Dehua Taiji, who was commanding the battle in the distance, saw that the enemy leader was extremely brave, so he killed him with a spear.

Dehuataiji is strong in martial arts, second only to Hudun and Kudu in the Mongolian army in Dali.

As soon as the Yuan soldiers saw that the opposing master would be entangled, they immediately swarmed up again, and once again narrowed the encirclement.

Tian Xiuyan, who was on the periphery, saw more and more enemy troops, and the two hundred-man teams on the city wall were also divided and surrounded, and the soldiers around Duan Donglou fell to the ground one by one, and even Duan Donglou's body was covered in blood, Tian Xiuyan knew that the current situation had reached the most critical juncture, as long as he insisted on it for a while, Lou Anbang outside the city could rush in.

Tian Xiuyan suddenly let out a long howl, rushed into the enemy formation from behind, and ran towards Dehua Taiji. Tian Xiuyan's cultivation of the Miao family's light skills is quite unique, the speed is fast, the pace is strange, like a ghost in the Yuan army soldiers shuttle, when the enemy is dense, jump upward, like a flying eagle, directly across the head of a group of soldiers, although the Yuan army soldiers have the intention to stop, but there is nothing to do. Along the way, Tian Xiuyan was not entangled, and it didn't take long for him to come straight behind Dehua Taiji.

Attacking back and forth, Dehuatai Ji, who was already slightly inferior, suddenly looked embarrassed, so he had to make a false move and retreat into the formation. With Tian Xiuyan's help, Duan Donglou shouted again, swept his spear, and forced the Mongolian soldiers in front of him to retreat.

Duan Donglou had just breathed a sigh of relief, when he heard an angry voice sound: "Relic fear, don't be proud, this handsome is here." ”

Hu Dun, who came from the north gate, came to the south gate in time, and recognized the enemy's main general from Duan Donglou's moves as the demon monk Sariwei. Although Duan Donglou was at the end of his crossbow at this moment, he said with a strong voice: "Kudun, what's the use of you coming?" ”

Tian Xiuyan took two steps forward, stopped in front of Duan Donglou, and smiled indifferently: "Hu Dun, dare to fight with your Young Master Tian for another three hundred rounds?" ”
