Chapter 801: Breaking the City Gate
As soon as the shout fell, a healthy horse rushed in from outside the palace and rushed straight to Tai Shici, who led the Qin army on foot to chase and kill the Huainan army.
Jianma rushed into the palace, and a group of Huainan troops rushed in after him, pounced on Tai Shici and the 30,000 Qin troops led by him.
"Kill!" Seeing Qiao Rui, who was riding a fast horse, rushing to the front, Tai Shici suddenly burst into a shout, holding a halberd in both hands, and strode towards Qiao Rui.
Tai Shi Ci was about to rush to the front, Qiao Rui did not delay, and with a big knife in his hand, he slashed at Tai Shi Ci's head.
Qiao Rui's big knife slashed head-on, but Tai Shici's pace did not slow down at all.
With the momentum of rushing forward, he threw himself forward, and a lazy donkey rolled on the spot, and at the moment when he was about to get up, the halberd in both hands cut towards one of the hooves of the war horse under Qiao Rui's crotch.
Riding on horseback, although Qiao Rui is condescending and easy to wield his blade, he is not as dexterous as standing on the ground with his feet on the ground.
The halberd cut towards the horse's hooves, Qiao Rui's heart was shocked, and she hurriedly pulled the reins, trying to turn the war horse around, so that the war horse could avoid the halberd that cut towards the horse's hooves.
Although Qiao Rui's reaction was fast, it was not as dexterous as Tai Shi Ci, who was fighting on foot.
As soon as he lifted the reins, Tai Shici's double halberd had already been cut to one of the horse's legs.
The horse let out a long, terrible neigh, and as two silver arcs of light slashed by, a horse's hoof was cut off alive in the splatters of blood.
Missing a horse's hoof, the horse suddenly lost its balance, and as soon as its body tilted, it fell to the side.
At the same time as the war horse fell to the side, Qiao Rui thrust the big knife in his hand into the ground, and held the handle of the knife with both hands, just like a pole vault, with the help of the support of the handle, jumped down from the horse.
Tai Shici and Qiao Rui fought, and the soldiers of the Huainan Army and the Qin Army who followed behind the two of them were already screaming and crashing into one place.
The weapons flew over, accompanied by bursts of earth-shattering shouts of killing, and the silver light drawn by the blades slashed towards the living soldiers on both sides.
The shield collided with the shield, making a crisp crashing sound, and the sound of the blade piercing the armor piercing the human body was endless.
One by one, the soldiers of both sides fell, and then countless more people poured into the enemy.
The Huainan army, which was defending Shouchun City, and the Qin army, which had been waiting outside the city for several days and finally waited for the day of the general attack, were like crazy beasts, and they had no other thoughts in their hearts except to advance.
Jumping off the horse's back with a big knife, Qiao Rui's feet had not yet stood firmly on the ground, and Tai Shici had already jumped towards him from behind like a bolt of lightning.
Two silver lights flashed, and the double halberd in Tai Shici's hand was wrapped in a strong wind, and it pierced straight towards Qiao Rui's throat.
Before her feet landed, Qiao Rui wanted to dodge, but she couldn't borrow her strength at all.
At the moment when the twin halberds were about to pierce his throat, he suddenly let out a loud shout, and his arms spun on the spot with the support of the hilt of the knife, avoiding the two halberds in Tai Shici's hand.
Qiao Rui was able to avoid his blow, which was obviously beyond Tai Shici's expectations.
The double halberd stabbed into the air, and Tai Shici hurriedly withdrew his arms and put the halberd in front of him in the shape of a cross.
As soon as he put on a defensive posture, Qiao Rui had already landed on both feet, burst into a shout, picked up the big knife and slashed down on the top of his head.
The big knife slammed on the double halberd, and Tai Shi Ci suddenly pushed forward and pushed the big knife forward.
Tai Shi Ci's strength is strong, if it is by strength, Qiao Rui is not his opponent.
The powerful force was exerted on the big knife, and Qiao Rui didn't carry it hard, so she hurriedly put away the knife, let out a loud cry again, and slashed the big knife towards Tai Shici's legs.
The sharp big knife slashed at his legs, Tai Shi Ci held the halberd in one hand and knocked it against the big knife, and the short halberd in the other hand drew a silver light and cut directly into Qiao Rui's throat.
The halberd slashed towards his throat, Qiao Rui didn't dare not avoid it, he hurriedly withdrew the big knife and jumped two steps to the side.
Qiao Rui jumped to the side, how could Tai Shici let him go lightly, strode to follow, and with all his strength, he smashed the double halberd towards the top of his head.
In the city, Tai Shi Ci had already led the army to attack Yuan Shu's palace, and at the city gate, Deng Zhan led five hundred dragoon guards to occupy the city gate.
The number of Huainan troops guarding the city gate is not very large, and for Deng Zhan and the dragoon guards under his command, the combat power of these Huainan troops is almost negligible.
The Huainan army poured down on the city wall continuously, but the Huainan army that came to support was a little slower after all, and when they rushed down the city wall, the dragoon guards had cleared the Huainan army guarding the city gate and occupied the city gate.
Four or five hundred dragoons wielded their long swords, slashing at the Huainan troops who were rushing towards them, and only twenty or thirty dragoons were moving away the heavy objects behind the city gate and slowly opening the city gate.
Finally, a gap appeared in the city gate, and the dragoon guards opened the city gate for the Qin army outside the city.
Several dragoon guards took out the fire folds, lit torches inside the city gate, and shook the torches to signal to the Qin army outside the city that the city gate had been opened.
Standing in the main formation of the Qin army, he saw from a distance that the dragon cavalry guards outside the city gate lit up a ball of fire, stretched out his hand and pulled out the long sword at his waist, pointed the long sword forward, and shouted: "Kill!" ”
Although there were bursts of shouting and killing in the city in the distance, due to the distance, the shouting and killing was still very hazy, but Liu Wei's "killing" was clearly transmitted to the ears of many Qin soldiers.
Zhao Yun and Gao Shun, who were undertaking the vanguard task, heard Liu Wei give the order to charge, and at the same time raised the weapons in their hands high, and shouted at the Tiger Benwei and Yu Linwei behind them: "Kill!" ”
As soon as the shout fell, the two fast horses had already shot like lightning towards the Shouchun City Gate.
As soon as Zhao Yun and Gao Shun rode their horses and rushed out, the Yulin Guard and the Tiger Benwei under their command both swung their blades and shields and rushed to the Shouchun City Gate.
"Kill!" After Yulin and Tiger Ben rushed out, Lu Bu also raised the Fang Tian Painting Halberd high and roared at the main force of the Qin army in the main array.
The cavalry of the Qin army, which was less than 10,000 people, followed closely behind him after Lu Bu made this shout, and rushed towards Shouchun on horseback.
The 30,000 heavy infantry of the Qin army who remained in the main formation also followed closely behind the cavalry, shouting, and rushed to this city that they had long wanted to break through, and only now did they have a chance to open the city gate.
The tide of Qin troops rushed to the city gate, and Ji Ling at the head of the city hurriedly shouted loudly to the Huainan army guarding the city wall: "Release the arrows, release the arrows!" Shoot them all out of the city! ”
Although Ji Ling's shout was loud, everyone knew that the Qin army was surging towards the city gate like a wave, even if the Huainan army on the city wall could shoot a Qin army with every arrow, it would be impossible to shoot them all outside the city.
What's more, when the Qin army charged, the shield in his hand was raised high, and he was already ready to prevent the rain of arrows falling on the city wall.
The Qin army outside the city launched a total attack, and the dragoon guards who fought with the Huainan army inside the city gate suddenly increased their morale, and roared angrily and launched a fierce attack on the Huainan army, which was far outnumbered by them.
Although the two sides were in a scuffle, the dragoon's swordsmanship was not affected in the slightest, and a long sword with a black handle slashed out silver arcs of light in the night.
With each arc of light, a Huainan army would fall to the ground with blood.
The dragoon guards were fighting with the Huainan army, and Zhao Yun, dressed in silver armor and white robes, was the first to rush into the city gate.
"Kill!" Rushing into the city gate, Zhao Yun didn't linger at all, roared angrily, and the spear in his hand was suddenly handed forward, piercing the heart of a Huainan soldier.
The sharp spear pierced the Huainan army's body and went out from behind his back.
Zhao Yun did not immediately draw out the spear, but burst into a shout, holding the barrel of the gun with both hands, and using the barrel of the gun to pick up the Huainan army.
Picking up the Huainan army that was pierced by him with one shot, Zhao Yun let out a loud shout again, picked up his spear and threw it forward.
The corpse was thrown out of the spear by Zhao Yun and smashed directly into a pile of Huainan Army.
The Huainan army that was directly hit by the corpse fell backwards one by one with blood spraying from their mouths, and those Huainan troops who were not hit but were hit by the people in front of them also fell down in an instant.
Smashing over a group of Huainan troops, Zhao Yun clamped his legs on the horse's belly, and rode his horse towards the group of Huainan troops who fell to the ground.
A Huainan soldier who was knocked to the ground had just pushed away his companion who had fallen on top of him, and was about to get up when a huge snow-white figure appeared in his sight.
Immediately afterwards, the Huainan army saw two horses' hooves with iron palms getting bigger and bigger in front of his eyes.
With a miserable howl, the Huainan army subconsciously raised his arm to block the horse's hooves that were about to step on him.
But where can the human arm resist the heavy horse's hooves, with the sound of "click" bones breaking, the horse's hooves stepped heavily on Huainan Jun's arms, hitting his chest.
"Poof!" A mouthful of blood spurted out of the mouth of the Huainan soldier, and he fell heavily to the ground under the trampling of the war horse.
The war horse trampled to death a soldier of the Huainan Army, Zhao Yun did not linger at all, and shouted: "Tiger Benwei, defeat the nearby Huainan Army!" ”
"Roar!" shouted and killed, but Zhao Yun's shout pierced the shouting and killing around him, and reached the ears of the tiger guards who rushed into the city immediately after him, and all the tiger guards let out a roar in unison, rode their war horses, and crashed heavily into the oncoming Huainan army.
The Tiger Benwei stayed near the city gate to fight with the Huainan Army, but as the commander of the Tiger Benwei, Zhao Yun did not stay here.
He brandished a spear, stabbing the Huainan army blocking the way all the way, and killed the Huainan army in a short time.
Zhao Yun, who had already been stained with blood on the snow-white robe and silver bright armor, did not look back, he shook off the reins, clamped his legs towards the horse's belly, and rushed towards the stairs to the city.
Zhao Yun rode his horse and rushed to the stairs, and dozens of Huainan troops guarding the city wall hurriedly ran to the stairs and formed a position in front of the stairs, ready to meet Zhao Yun who was rushing towards them.
