Chapter 108: Palace Guards

After a while, the casualties on the covered city were obviously much smaller. Although the crossbowmen of the shooting battalion under the city also have armor, for the convenience of movement, most of them are wearing armor or armor, and few are wearing iron armor, which is due to heavy casualties.

At this time, Guo Jia at the head of the city used the spiritual secret method of "discerning everything" to detect some movement in the houses near the palace, but what he didn't understand was that hiding in the houses could block the attacks on the city, but he also lost the means of attack.

When the city can shoot at the city, it will only be easier for the city to be shot at the city, so what is the purpose of the enemy? What kind of conspiracy is there?

A moment later, Guo Jia noticed that the drums and trumpets behind the enemy's army were sounding in unison, there was a sound in the houses near the palace, the roof tiles were lifted, and the insects shook their wings "buzzing", and countless fires flew up and flew towards the city.

When he saw the fires rising in the houses, Guo Jia finally understood what the enemy was planning, but by the time he realized that it was too late, the arrows with the light of the fire rose into the air, and then fell downward, igniting the curtains and hanging houses on the city.

The dwellings are a little far away from the palace, shooting arrows from the bottom to the top, using heavy arrows is basically out of reach, and if you use light arrows, the power is a little insufficient, if you want to shoot with a strong crossbow, you must first knock down the walls of the house, so Guo Jia, who has little experience in defending the city, can't think of what kind of attack the enemy will have.

He was still wondering if the other party had hidden the big yellow crossbow in it, but then he thought that although the big yellow crossbow was amazingly powerful, it was huge in size and slow in rate of fire, and these killing weapons were also stored in the arsenal, and the enemy didn't see any traces of dragging that kind of big killing weapon in his hands, so he didn't take it to heart, but he didn't expect this Dong Zhuo to come with such a hand.

Although the lethality of the light arrows lit with grease is not enough, but the attacker does not need much damage, as long as the arrow is shot out, it is a success, the rocket fell on the head of the city, and immediately ignited countless sparks, many arrows also crossed the city wall, fell into the palace, and caused some trouble to the palace maids and eunuchs who carried stones and wooden blocks at this time.

In the nearby hall, Empress He was still holding her son Liu Yan, worried about the future, and was suddenly startled by the sudden sound of drums and trumpets outside, she covered her son's Redo, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you want to block my brother from entering the city?" ”

At this time, Guo Sheng knelt on the ground and said: "Queen, I have always been respectful to you, and please save our lives!" ”

The rest of the people also knelt on the ground and cried bitterly at this time, and in the distance, Empress Dowager Dong took Liu Xie's hand, but she couldn't stop sneering at this side.

Empress He said: "I know, but now that the army outside is attacking the city, then Chen Liaozhou and Guo Changshi don't listen to me, what can I say?" ”

Guo Sheng and the others glanced at each other at this time, with a look of embarrassment on their faces, but after a while, Guo Sheng gritted his teeth and said: "Queen Mother, I am waiting for a thin life, but I also ask the queen to read on my past hard work and help one or two, this world still depends on the queen to decide!" ”

Empress He thought for a moment, snorted at this time, stood up, and said, "Lead the way ahead, I want to see what those two have to say now!" ”

Several of the middle attendants looked at each other again, then stood up and followed Queen He's side, there were originally some palace maids and eunuchs in the hall who were arranging the mourning hall, but not long ago, they were all ordered by Chen Xi Guo Sheng and others, all of them were arrested to prepare for the defense of the city, and now there are still many people carrying stones and wooden blocks and other things.

Now the middle attendants walked out with Empress He in their arms, and the hall was suddenly empty, Empress Dowager Dong sat beside her son, took Liu Xie's hand, and said coldly: "Dong Hou, you have to remember the current things, those people outside ......"

The old lady pointed out, her face full of anger, "...... It's all rebellious and thieves! When you become the emperor, don't let any of them go! ”

When the historian on the side heard this, he immediately pricked up his ears, opened the bamboo slip, and picked up the pen and book.

"It's all this time, what else are you writing?" Empress Dowager Dong scolded angrily: "Can't you go and do something serious? ”

The historian first finished writing what he was going to write, then tidied up his clothes, and said with a straight face: "It is the duty of the minister to write straight." ”

Empress Dowager Dong snorted, knowing that the other party was telling the truth, so she didn't say anything anymore.

Empress He took Liu Yan's hand, and as soon as she walked out of the palace gate, she saw thousands of rockets rising and falling towards the palace, the fire in the sky was beautiful and abnormal, but it was also extremely dangerous, Queen He immediately stopped and retreated with her son. Although the place where the arrow fell was still far away from the Garter Hall, she did not dare to take any risks.

Seeing that it was so dangerous outside, Queen He immediately extinguished her mind to find someone to theorize, just now she was just being picked up by the middle attendants, it was just a whim, after taking a few steps, she calmed down, thinking of all kinds of quarrels and extermination in history, she immediately retreated.

Seeing that Empress He and the others retreated at a faster speed, Empress Dowager Dong immediately sneered again, Empress He was not to be outdone, and immediately ridiculed each other, if it weren't for a few middle attendants in the middle to dissuade them, I was afraid that they would still fight, as for the deceased Son of Heaven, there would be few people who cared about him.

On the head of the city, the flames were everywhere, and the soldiers were a little flustered, some of them continued to look for opportunities to shoot arrows down, and others used various things to extinguish the flames At this time, if Chen Xi is willing, let go of the restrictions, with his and Guo Jia's spiritual power, it is enough to reverse the celestial phenomena, and it is absolutely no problem to rain a light rain, however, since then, the restrictions have been lifted on those scholars and civil officials, if they let go of their hands, the harm will be greater, such as moving slightly and collapsing a palace wall......

Therefore, Chen Xi could only watch, and besides, this rocket was actually nothing, Guo Jia was drinking at this time: "Go down and bring water up, water the cloth and then support it!" ”

Immediately, someone received the order: "No! ”

The following will be modified

After a while, the casualties on the covered city were obviously much smaller.

Immediately, someone received the order: "No! ”

Under the city, the crossbowmen of the shooting battalion took advantage of the chaos in the city, rushed forward dozens of pieces, hid behind the wooden platoon, and then continued to shoot arrows above.

The enemies huddled together were shot over dozens of people at once, and at a distance of forty to twenty paces, the corpses fell to the ground.

On the wooden rafts erected under the city, there are some narrow lookouts for the soldiers who are hiding behind to observe the situation in the city, while Wang Yue is holding a bow and arrows, and the arrows are accurately shot into the lookout, and they do not enter the eyes of a soldier, and the blood in the eyes of the soldiers who hit them is splashed, and he falls backwards to the ground, and he is suddenly out of breath.

The Praetorian Guards at the head of the city ignored the javelins thrown from below, and responded with bows and crossbows, and threw stones and wooden blocks, killing the enemy who approached the city gate.

The battle suddenly became fierce, and there were heavy casualties on and off the city, and the Dong Zhuo coalition army under the city was divided into two parts, one part to help push the ladder cart, and the division of troops to help cover it with shields in front; The other part pushed forward to the bottom of the city and threw spears at the city, and the other besieging troops also led by their respective generals to storm the city.
