Chapter 121: The Fall of the Hero
Just when Qiu Mao's eyes showed a kind of despair, he suddenly saw that a white-robed general rushed to the city gate, the bright silver spear in his hand flashed, and swept away the four or five soldiers at the city gate with one shot, and then it was even more like entering a no-man's land, constantly picking up the soldiers around him.
Qiu Mao fixed his eyes and saw that this general was none other than Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, the No. 1 general under Gongsun Xu.
Seeing that General Zhao Yun and several generals had already arrived at the city gate, Qiu Mao knew that the city gate was fine.
Zhao Yun's side, Ustan and several other generals rushed to the scene, they formed a defensive line around Zhao Yun, firmly stood on the ground, and began to kill the soldiers at the city gate who prevented the door from opening.
After Zhao Yun and several generals of Ustan fought hard to kill the enemy, the gate of Xiangping, which was about to close, was slowly opened by the soldiers behind them again.
Allowing Zhang Chun's team to attack like a tide, Zhao Yun and they stood still.
The corpses at the gate of the city were piled up high, as if they had formed a small mound made of human bodies, and people were constantly coming up from them, constantly being killed, and becoming part of the pile of corpses.
More and more Han cavalry and Han infantry rushed to the gate of Xiangping City, began to clean up the corpses at the gate and attacked the city.
Falling short. It was only a matter of seconds before he was able to close the gates.
Zhang Chun stood still, his face was like white paper, and there was a desperate expression in his eyes.
"General, retreat! The enemy is about to come in. ”
"General, what's wrong with you, withdraw!"
The soldiers around Zhang Chun saw that the general trend had gone, and the battle at the city gate had no value, and when they saw Zhang Chun standing on the ground, they immediately set up Zhang Chun, who had lost his mind, and ran directly to Xiangping City.
These pro-soldiers are right, the Han army has already entered the city, and it will be too late if they don't run now.
Now it's just that the South City Gate is lost, as long as General Zhang Chun can get together with Lord Qiu Liju of Wuhuan, there shouldn't be much of a problem in killing out of Xiangping City.
At this time, it was definitely a wrong choice to fight to the death with the morale of the Han soldiers, and they had no chance of victory.
Qiu Mao saw that General Zhao Yun was firmly guarding the gate with one horse, and began to pay attention to the situation on Zhang Chun's side.
When he saw that Zhang Chun was set up by his own soldiers and began to run away, he slashed forward and immediately shouted loudly: "Zhang Chun, that traitor is about to run away, everyone chase him!" Now is a time of chaos, and the only way to survive is to kill the enemy. ”
Qiu Mao knew quite well in his heart at this time, his voice would make Zhang Chun's side go away, the main generals had run away, and these overseers were not stupid, and they insisted on this place if they were looking for death.
When there is hope of victory, they can fight hard, they can fight bravely, once there is no hope of victory, once the Lord will give up on them and start running, they will definitely not be here as substitutes, they will definitely run faster than rabbits.
Qiu Mao's roar was very loud, and this sudden voice made everyone focus their attention on Zhang Chun's side.
Seeing that Zhang Chun left them and began to flee, the soldiers of these overseers immediately had no intention of resisting, they gave up attacking the city gate, gave up slashing and killing the cannon fodder, and began to follow the direction of Zhang Chun's escape.
The soldiers of the Warlord began to flee, and the cannon fodder soldiers who paid their own lives immediately became energetic, and at this time they had already determined one thing, that is, the Han army was about to enter the city.
If you want to be immortal, you want to make meritorious service and mix some military merits with the Han army, and killing these fleeing warlords is the best proof of merit.
And the most important point is that the soldiers of the Han army entering the city, they don't know who is the friendly army and who is the enemy at this time, and they must let Qiu Mao and the details of the Han army prove their existence, otherwise, they will definitely be killed by the Han army in vain.
It was for these two reasons that the cannon fodder soldiers, under the command of their leader, began to go after the soldiers of the Overseer in a frenzied manner.
Zhao Yun looked at Zhang Chun's soldiers in the city chasing each other, and there was a trace of incomprehension in his eyes, but what! Thinking of the scheming Gongsun Xu, Zhao Yun was relieved.
Zhao Yun summoned Nan Tianyuan, who led the vanguard into the city, and he exhorted loudly: "General Nan, order to go down, and when the attack starts in a while, let the soldiers under him shout to lay down their weapons and surrender not to kill." In this way, you can distinguish between yourself and your enemies, and remember not to kill innocents indiscriminately. ”
Zhang Chun's eyes looked at the overseers who were retreating like a tide, he slowly closed his eyes, and thought depressedly in his heart, it's over, it's over. The siege had been completely lost, and he had no way out.
The shouting of killing became louder and louder, but Zhang Chun's heart became quieter and quieter.
With a movement of his body, he jumped down from the back of his own soldier, and after waving his hand to signal that his own soldier had nothing to do, he took two strides in succession and climbed to the altar not far from him.
After sweeping away the cow head and other sacrificial objects on the sacrificial platform with a few feet, Zhang Chun stood firmly on the sacrificial platform, his eyes looked at the Han soldiers who poured into Xiangping City like a tide, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
He was laughing, but it was a bitter bitter smile.
From the time he raised troops in Yuyang County and proclaimed himself the king of Mitian Anding, it was smooth sailing along the way, and in his heart, he would even occupy the entire territory of Youzhou and be able to establish a kingdom of his own.
Now he's defeated, so defeated that he doesn't even have a chance to turn him over.
Zhang Chun's heart knew better that the emperor of the Han Dynasty and all his subordinates wanted him to die, and he couldn't escape, rather than being killed by those Han soldiers, it was better for him to kill himself ruthlessly.
Even if he won't be as famous as Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, he will die a dignified death, so that his descendants will remember in their hearts that their ancestors and Xiang Yu died by suicide and did not let anyone kill them.
Zhang Chun is afraid of death, he is more afraid of death than anyone else.
However, Zhang Chun stood calmly on a high place at this time, he put the big knife in his hand that was still dripping blood to his neck, and shouted hysterically: "Thief God, why can't you fulfill me." I am the king of stability, I am the king of stability!. ”
After Zhang Chun staggered two steps, he muttered to himself: "I am the king of Mitian stability, no one can kill me, only I can kill me, no one can ......"
Zhang Chun's right hand violently dragged the big knife in his hand, and a stream of blood arrows erupted from Zhang Chun's neck.
A generation of heroes Zhang Chun killed himself.
