Cheng Chumo's speed is very fast, five thousand elite horsemen use strong crossbows, gunpowder to open the way, and the dense crowd will be immediately cleared out of an open space by gunpowder, whenever the gunpowder bullet falls to the ground and blooms, there will be a large stream of black smoke rising, accompanied by a deafening explosion, the Turkic war horse neighed and ran away in horror, not controlled by the master at all.

Cheng Chu silently pressed the vanguard of the military formation, and always chose the already routed enemy formation to charge, preparing to make the Turkic battle formation more chaotic. The battlefield became a mess.

"As long as you give me 3,000 elite horsemen, you can chisel through the enemy formation!" Guo Ping smashed his fist on the earthen wall with hatred, completely forgetting that he was still waiting for death just now.

Chen Shu suddenly pointed to the sky and whined, Guo Ping looked up and was stunned, a whole team of hot air balloons in the sky was slowly floating towards the city, and huge wooden boxes were hanging under the huge hot air balloons.

At this time, not only Guo Ping saw it, but even the Turks also saw this shocking scene, Cheng Chumo saw that the hot air balloon had flown to the city of Qiuzi, laughed and immediately turned his horse's head, and led his subordinates to break through to the east, his goal of harassing and containing the enemy had been completed, and there was no need to fight to the death with the Turkic army.

Horn remembered again that the entire eastern side of the Turkic camp was dusty, and his lieutenant general with another five thousand cavalry began to attack the Turkic camp, ready to meet Cheng Chumo, and the army had been lurking for almost ten days in this generation in preparation for this moment.

"That's leaving?" Guo Ping saw that Cheng Chumo's army was chased by the Turks and left the battlefield, and he didn't believe his eyes and turned back to ask Chen Shu.

Chen Shudi was also disappointed, and his mouth opened as if he was silently shouting something to the distant Cheng, but when the voice came out, it was still a whining sound.

The hot air balloon did not stop, and after lowering the altitude, a large number of wooden boxes were thrown down and went away with the wind......

"Grandma's. It's still unreliable, come over on a dog day and dip it in garlic and run to convert the reinforcements of that door! The light of hope that had just risen in Guo Ping's eyes gradually extinguished again, and after more than a month of strong attack by the enemy, the last combat strength of the Anxi army had been excavated, and many soldiers who fell on the city wall Guo Ping knew that they were his father's personal guards.

The Turks under the city are tidying up their camps. The next door to the east was dusty, and there was a faint explosion coming, and the Tang cavalry that was charging was still bitten by the Turks.

A large box fell not far from the city wall, Guo Ping let the only four subordinates open the box, and the gray face suddenly glowed, this box was full of crossbow arrows of eight bull crossbows, the kind with gunpowder bags on it, and pulled out a crossbow arrow, only to see that it was written with an elevation of three points. Five hundred steps away!

opened a large ball of cotton, and there were twenty-four gunpowder bullets neatly placed in it, at this time you can't be polite, Guo Ping hung ten on his waist in one go, and pulled out a box of arrows with a strong crossbow in front of him, at this moment he felt that with the ten people brought by Chen Shu, it seemed possible to hold the two-hundred-step wide city wall.

Chen Shu took out a red envelope, took out the threaded needle and thread inside, and soaked it in alcohol to disinfect. Then he found a good guy who sewed clothes, and sewed the second mouth on his face.

"This is the vanguard of reinforcements, and the number is too small to fight the enemy. The cavalry did not play a big role in defending the city, so they did not enter the city, the advance had already arrived, and the army might be nearby, and the Turks had begun to attack the city frantically in the past few days, and whether they lived or died showed that they knew that time was running out. Brethren, we have a guy, hold on for a day or two, and when the army arrives, we will go out and kill the enemy together! ”

After Chen Shu put gauze on his face, he began to mobilize his subordinates to hold on, and the eight-ox crossbow hidden in the house and ready to be destroyed at any time was pushed up, lined up with eight frames. Adjust the angle to make the fire cross, put on the gunpowder crossbow, and wait for the enemy to rush up.

For a whole day, the Turks did not move, the fire of war in the east seemed to have long been extinguished, and the land was quiet, only the wind-blown battle flags were rattling.

Guo Ping took a bite of the marching dry food, drank a large mouthful of water, and chewed a piece and was already full of food. The whole stomach was stuffed with the swollen dry food, and although I still wanted to eat, I stopped my mouth for the sake of my old life. "Zhongkang, let's go see Dashuai!" Chen Shu's mouth opened several times before he said this.

"If you don't go, he won't allow me to go, I'm just a team leader in the army, and I'm not qualified to see the commander." Guo Ping didn't open his eyes, and continued to rest against the wall, after this battle, he had to return to Chang'an to study at Yushan Academy no matter what, the blood that should have been shed was shed by himself, and the obligations he should have fulfilled were fulfilled, his father no longer had any reason to keep himself in the army, he was not a pawn in the first place, it was his father who forced himself into the army to experience, from the beginning to the present, how many enemies have he killed?

I'm afraid it's too many to count, the corpses that keep exploding under the city wall are very revealing, Lao Tzu from now on, no one owes anything, just live for himself, my brother is gone, my mother still has to rely on herself, she must live well.

"If you don't go, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to see you again!" Chen Shu replied lightly.

"I can't ask for it, hehe, huh? You repeat? Guo Ping sat up all of a sudden.

"Dashuai was successfully attacked by the Condor Shooter three days ago, and the long arrow pierced through his right chest, he was fine at the time, and he could still kill the enemy, but he suddenly had a high fever and fell unconscious yesterday! I haven't woken up yet. “

The kettle in Guo Ping's hand fell to the ground with a bang, how could it be? That person can't be killed, he didn't fall to his death when he fell from the head of Luoyang City, the Eastern Turks didn't even knock him to death with a flail on his head, and more than 30 war horses ran past him and didn't trample him to death, how could such a person fall on an arrow? It's ridiculous.

Guo Ping showed a smile with difficulty and said: "It's okay, if he can't die, this person won't die, I know, he is as strong as a mountain, nothing in this world can break him, this is impossible." ‘

"The doctor said his lungs were full of juice and he couldn't survive tonight. Adjutant General Zhang Tingyue has taken over military affairs, these days the arrangement of troops is from his hands, we still have less than 5,000 remnants left, the Anxi Army can be said to have been disabled, and it is very difficult to make a comeback, so at this time to see your father, if you are unhappy, you must put it down. “

Guo Ping staggered to the marshal's mansion in the city, several guards saw Guo Ping come in, called in a low voice, the young master stepped aside, walked into the bedroom, and could hear Guo Xiaoke's breathing like a cow from a distance, opened the tent, and finally saw a father who was different from usual.

At a glance, he saw the bamboo tube inserted in the lungs, the white juice slowly flowed out of the bamboo tube, the smell was tangy, Guo Ping couldn't smell this smell anymore, he only saw his father's sallow face, and the hanging needle lines in the center of his eyebrows were still clearly recognizable, even in a coma, his majestic aura had not changed.

Seeing that his father's lips were already peeling, Guo Ping took the honey water, and fed it to his father with a spoon little by little, seeing that his father could still swallow unconsciously, Guo Ping turned his head sideways to wipe a handful of tears and continued to feed his father.

Suddenly, the wooden spoon was bitten, and it snapped in two, and at some point, the sound of the cow's roaring breathing disappeared, and Guo Ping found that his father was glaring at him angrily.

Knowing what he was going to say, he hurriedly replied: "The Turks have been repulsed, the vanguard of reinforcements has arrived in Qiuzi, Yun Shuai specially ordered a hot air balloon to send us supplies from the air, as long as we hold on for three or two days, the team will arrive." “

Seeing that his father wanted to speak, he pulled the broken wooden spoon out of his father's mouth, ready to hear what he had to say. "400,000 Turkic coalition troops, plus the shepherds who follow them, you should know how many people are in total, don't pin your hopes on reinforcements, Yun Ye only has 50,000 people in his hands, once he comes, the situation will be even worse, I would rather never write a letter to him asking for help, the labor expedition is a taboo for soldiers, Yun Ye is too young, he should stick to Gaochang."

Guo Ping sighed, seeing that his father reluctantly said a few words, his forehead was already sweating, he took a towel soaked in ice water and helped his father wipe the sweat beads on his forehead, and listened to his father continue: "The more critical the moment, the more you can test a person's mind, not panic in chaos, and not afraid of death, this is the big husband, remember, the more afraid you are of death, the faster you will die, go, it's not the time to talk under the danger of war, go to your own place." “

After speaking, he closed his eyes, Guo Ping was very sad in his heart, and he didn't have anything to say to himself at this time, when do you plan to be strong?

Just as he was about to step out of the door, he heard his father say, "Stay with your mother for me, I have not been able to bring all his children back." ”

Guo Ping rushed out of the Shuai Mansion with tears in his eyes, and ran to the city wall in one breath regardless of the pain in his body, looking at the dense bonfire outside the city, he couldn't help but be taken aback, what are the Turks going to do? Are they planning to attack at night?

The sound of the horn on the head of the city has never stopped, all the members of the Anxi army who have been re-equipped have gone up to the city wall, the oil barrels have been rolled up the city wall, the waists of each soldier are also full of gunpowder bullets, the crossbow strings of the eight bull crossbows are constantly creaking and being tightened, Zhang Tingyue's banner has been raised at the east gate, and the wind, the cry of the wind resounded in the sky.

This should be the moment of the battle to the death, Chen Shu didn't care about his swollen face like a pig's head, squinted his small eyes, and responded loudly with his cherry mouth, the giant shield was knocked by his flail, this should be the last battle.

The sound of shouting and shouting the wind spread far in the night sky, and at this time, even Cheng Chumo on the other side of the distant mountain also made the same sound, since ancient times, the Qin soldiers have endured hard fighting, the wind is out, and the soldiers are dead! (To be continued......)
