Chapter 458: Burning City with Flames (Part II)
Looking at Chen Chong's absolute expression, Liao Bin looked miserable, stepped forward, and hugged this old comrade-in-arms who had been fighting side by side with him since he made his fortune, "Maybe we did something wrong at the beginning, Lao Chen, now that we are lost dogs, where will anyone welcome us, I am here, fight side by side with you, die, die together!" ”
Gently pushing Liao Bin away, Chen Chong said: "Dashuai, you are wrong, it is precisely because we are now the lost dogs that someone will accept us, as long as you firmly grasp the more than 10,000 elite soldiers who follow you to break through, if you are still the commander of the whole state, then there is really no place to go!" Now the general trend of the world has been basically clear, the trend of the world has been roughly formed, whether it is the south, Luoyang, you must be welcome to join it. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Liao Bin's expression moved, he had never thought about these things before, but he was a little confused, but Chen Chong, after surviving the pain of losing his son, his brain was more sober.
"Then you say, where am I going?" Liao Bin said this, obviously agreeing with Chen Chong's view.
"Luoyang!" Chen Chong did not hesitate, "The southern army fell into the trap of the Xiao family, and the elite lost half of Tai, in the future three-point world, it is the weakest party, the other two, either side can destroy him at any time, but because of this, he will be embarrassed for a long time because of this little bit, but there is no future, Dingzhou Li Qing, if we belong to him at the beginning, it would be a good choice, but since it has reached this point, there is naturally no reason to choose him." And Luoyang! ”
Chen Chong paused for a moment and said: "Now we all understand one thing, everything was planned by the first emperor, he did not die, but was hidden behind the scenes, Dashuai, we once regarded His Majesty the Apocalypse as a cowardly and inactive emperor, but it was a big mistake, but I am afraid that no one in the world would have thought that he could make such a decision for the inheritance of Great Chu, and even the throne could be given up." ”
Liao Bin smiled bitterly, "It is precisely because of the unbelievable that no one would have thought that from ancient times to the present, except for the ancient barbarian era, that emperor did not try his best to maintain his status, so did he do it?" He deceived the people of the world, such a person is either extremely smart or crazy! ”
"Most, since he was a prince, he began to deceive all the people in the world, of course, if it weren't for this, how could he have been supported by several wealthy families at that time, and snatched the throne from King Ning, now that I think about it, it is really ridiculous, those big men at that time never thought that they chose thousands of choices, but they chose a gravedigger for themselves." Chen Chong said with a smile.
"King Ning is weak, self-protection is still insufficient, this is the general trend of the world, but I can only watch from the sidelines, in the future, Da Chu will enter the situation of confrontation between the east and the west, the duel between Li Qing and His Majesty the Apocalypse will definitely be the most exciting battle in the past hundred years, but unfortunately I can't see it!" Chen Chong sighed. Although he hated Li Qing in his heart, he could rationally admit that Li Qing was indeed a powerful opponent.
Liao Bin stared at Chen Chong, "Old Chen, there is hope in life, come with me!" There will be a chance for revenge in the future. ”
Chen Chong shook his head, "If we go together, then no one will be able to leave, and besides, Dashuai, I am no longer interesting, as for avenging our family in the future, isn't there still you?" ”
Liao Bin heard the meaning from these words, "Since you have made up your mind, I won't say anything, I can only keep your affection in mind, and I will avenge you in the future, don't worry, my brother and sister will go with me, I will send her back to your hometown!" ”
Chen Chong smiled, "The old wife has decided to live and die with me, but she doesn't bother with the handsome, if there is a chance, there are a few nephews in my hometown, and the handsome will choose an honest and responsible successor for me to the name, don't let my house be cut off!" ”
Liao Bin hid his face and was silent.
Chen Chong said: "Dashuai, from today on, you have to quickly organize the retreat, Liu Yefei also has the talent of a general, and Dashuai can rely on this person more in the future." ”
After saying this, he turned around and walked out with his head held high, never looking back.
The Dingzhou army only stopped for two days, from the third day, the offensive resumed, the Dingzhou army that got two days of rest and recuperation was more intense, and on the other hand, the whole city of Quanzhou, but the decline is gradually revealed, the determination to resist, much less than before, Chen Chong ran on the city wall, covered in blood, there was a dangerous situation, he took the lead in the soldiers to pounce, even so, to this day at sunset, the east city wall is still lost, the Dingzhou army Qi Nian Division under the Tianlei battalion attacked.
The Tianlei Battalion is known as the strongest infantry in the Dingzhou Army, and has resisted the impact of nearly 20,000 cavalry of the barbarians with the strength of a battalion without breaking up the formation.
One side is like a rainbow, the other side is sluggish, the result can be imagined, the Tianlei battalion began to gradually expand the bridgehead in the city, when Chen Chong organized enough reserves to rush up, the Tianlei battalion has nearly a thousand people climbed up, formed a solid formation on the city wall, at this time, it has become impossible to expel them, Chen Chong tried his best, but can only block them in the eastern section.
The east city wall was successful, and Li Qing, who was watching the battle, was overjoyed, so he only had to let the Dingzhou army gain a firm foothold on the city wall, and if he was left with an iron wall, he would also be beaten alive.
"Light the torch, attack overnight, and take Jeonju City for me today!"
The east city was lost, and the focus of the attack of the Dingzhou army immediately shifted, and at this moment, the west city gate was opened in a hurry, and a Biao army and horses surged in, and the first person was Liu Yefei, the fierce general of the whole state. The west was not the focus of the Dingzhou army's attack, here, only symbolically put half a battalion of foot soldiers on guard, seeing that the enemy troops out of the city were tens of thousands of people, and most of them were cavalry, the commander of the Dingzhou army here immediately wisely shrunk the formation, ready to defend to the death.
If the Dingzhou army does not take the initiative to attack, Liu Yefei will not be stupid enough to take the initiative to provoke, command the army, sweep between the Dingzhou army formations, and flee without stopping.
Seeing the enemy fleeing, the commander of Dingzhou couldn't help but be stunned, in the military order conveyed by Li Qing, all he considered was that Liao Bin would strictly defend and fight to the death, and even the plan for street fighting was ready, but he didn't expect Liao Bin to flee for his life.
In addition to being surprised, this general Zuo immediately sent someone to report to Li Qing, while leading his subordinates to follow, the other party has more than 10,000 people, he has less than 2,000 people, this gap is a bit too big, which makes him cautious, dare not follow, in case the other party kills a horse pistol, bite him down a bite of meat, it is absolutely not cost-effective, plus the opponent's cavalry accounts for the vast majority, it is chasing farther and farther.
Li Qing got the report, and immediately understood that Liao Bin had fled, a trace of regret flashed between his eyebrows, and he looked back on the mountain wind, "Launch a general attack, and at the same time publicize that Liao Bin has fled, and disintegrate the morale of the enemy defending the city!" ”
In fact, the Dingzhou army preached, and the soldiers defending the city had already felt that the commander had gone, and the army's heart suddenly collapsed, and most of the soldiers turned around and ran to the city, and more people directly dropped their weapons, squatted down on the spot with their heads in their hands, and on the long city wall, all the figures of the Dingzhou soldiers appeared in a moment.
Chen Chong, who was commanding the troops to fight against the Tianlei Battalion, understood that Liao Bin should have escaped at this time, and in the laughter, he also turned over and walked towards the city, and his direct troops followed him and went straight down to the city.
Instead of fleeing out of the city, Chen Chong led hundreds of people straight to his residence, and at this time, there was already a great chaos in the city, and there were routs everywhere.
"The city is broken! Run for your life! ”
"Dashuai left us and ran away!"
All kinds of sounds resounded throughout the city, and the most alarming of them was the sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground, which was that Dingzhou had opened the city gate and let in Li Qing's cavalry troops.
With one foot stepping into his house, Chen Chong turned around and said to hundreds of loyal subordinates: "Brothers, after completing the last thing, you will each run for your lives!" ”
Hundreds of soldiers bowed in unison: "The general cherishes!" ”
Chen Chong smiled and solemnly clasped his fists at everyone, "There are Brother Lao!" ”
Hundreds of people turned around and scattered, disappearing into the streets and alleys of Jeonju in an instant.
Chen Chongchang smiled and still dropped the bloodstained big knife in his hand, and did not even close the door, while walking inward, he took off the steel armor on his body, but in the house, his wife had prepared a brand new dress, and she herself was dressed in a full dress. Under the service of his wife, Chen Chong put on the new front, grabbed his wife's waist with one hand, and said, "It's ready!" ”
The woman smiled, "Today we are going to see Guang'er, I'm very happy!" ”
At this time, the house was already full of flammable materials, and it was poured with grease.
Chen Chong nodded, "Yes, our family is about to be reunited." The left hand picked up the candle from the table, the right hand hugged the woman tighter, and threw the candle flame on the grease, and with a bang, the flames immediately jumped up, and picked up the woman with both hands, Chen Chong sat down on the ground of the hall, and the woman wrapped her arms around his neck with both hands, and buried her head deep in his arms, and the two were like a sculpture, until the fire engulfed the two, and they did not see them move.
The fire in Chen Chong's residence seemed to be a signal, hundreds of places in the whole city, hundreds of places, at the same time, the flames were rising, obviously the fire that had been arranged for a long time was so fierce that it was extremely terrifying, and in less than half an hour, the entire city was completely plunged into a sea of fire.
The Dingzhou army entered the city of Quanzhou is not deep, although the opportunity is fast, turn around and withdraw, but there are also many people caught in the sea of fire and cannot get out, and the first batch of horses into the city is miserable, the horses are fast, run deep, it is more difficult to turn around and withdraw, a group of thousands of cavalry into the city only withdrew less than half.
And those Quanzhou soldiers were miserable, those who surrendered on the spot in the city were better, there was basically no way to escape into the city, forward, it was a raging fire, turned back, and blocked the way of the retreating Dingzhou army, at this time the Dingzhou army did not have any saying that they would not kill prisoners, as long as it was the Quanzhou soldiers who were in front, they would all be cut down and overturned.
An hour later, Quanzhou City basically turned into a big fireball, Li Qing gritted his teeth outside the city, pointing at the sky and scolding the earth, but he was helpless, this kind of fire, let alone now, even in the era in which he was originally located, could not be extinguished. This is clearly the intention of Quanzhou City to burn the city, and such a big fire, I am afraid that it has been arranged for many days, and the army can still withdraw, but it is really difficult to say how many people in Quanzhou City can escape or survive.
Damn Liao Bin, you have committed a crime against humanity! Li Qing secretly said in his heart, after Lao Tzu caught you, how many people died in Quanzhou City today, I will cut you as many knives as I wanted!
