Chapter 1121: The City Gate Is Not Closed!
The soldier's footsteps were even heavier, and the earth trembled slightly.
But at the same time, an even heavier muffled sound sounded behind them!
Originally, at this moment, Zhu Xuan could hardly hear anything, and the roar of the surrounding soldiers was like thunder from the cloud sky, shaking the entire earth; However, just when his blood was boiling, he rushed into battle with everyone, and was about to approach the city gate, a strange shock from the ground made his heart stagnate.
And in the roar of the soldiers, there seemed to be some people's exclamations.
He turned his head away in a panic.
I saw smoke and dust in the sky.
These people were only lightly armored infantry, and although they had just come out of the birch forest, they were only such a short distance, and they would not stir up so much smoke and dust at all.
And, the birds are frightening!
Zhu Xuan opened his eyes wide and looked behind him, only to see that under the dark sky, a large number of cavalry suddenly rushed out of the birch forest, they stepped on the smoke and dust, galloped over, and at a glance, it was like a fierce beast suddenly coming out of the woods, only to fly towards them.
What's going on?
How could there be a cavalry?
Zhu Xuan couldn't believe his eyes.
They waited in the birch forest for a whole day, and even if a horse appeared, they would be discovered, but now, it was a large group of people, no less than a thousand, suddenly appeared in front of them, like a divine soldier descending from the sky!
Some of the soldiers at the end of their ranks had lost their reactions in fright, and they watched stupidly as the horsemen and horses suddenly rushed out of the place that was originally their ambush, and in an instant, they had rushed in front of them.
The horses' hooves were raised high and trampled them to the ground.
"Ah——!h
Suddenly, a scream rang out.
However, after all, they rushed out of the woods, these cavalry did not line up, and there were only a few horsemen and horses in the front, and the large army was still behind, after they stepped into the infantry camp, although they trampled and killed many people one after another, but the infantry's reaction was not slow, and they immediately waved the swords and spears in their hands, and cut down the horses and horses that rushed to the front to the ground.
In the midst of the screams, bursts of muffled thunder sounded, and the earth shook.
More and more cavalry rushed out of the woods, and even if they were not in formation, they were black and oppressive in front of them, like a huge rolling stone, crushing towards them.
The faces of the soldiers showed a look of horror.
"Back to defense, quick back to defense!"
When Zhu Xuan saw this, he hurriedly turned the long sword in his hand, pointed at the cavalry that suddenly appeared behind him, and shouted loudly: "Array, return to defense!" ”
When the soldiers around him heard his order, they immediately began to shout loudly.
"Back to the defense!"
"Defend in formation!"
In order to chase and kill Zhu Feng, what he brought out from Changqing City this time was the most elite infantry under his command except Duoyanwei, and the reaction was also extremely fast, after being scattered by the cavalry, he immediately relined the line, put on a defensive formation, and aimed the spear in his hand at the cavalry who rushed up behind.
This is not a wide plain, and there are towering walls behind it, even the cavalry cannot fully use their advantages of shock and crushing, and it may not be able to truly defeat them!
But—
When they watched these cavalry roar towards them, their eyes still showed horror.
Especially Zhu Xuan.
He couldn't believe it.
Why did such a cavalry suddenly appear, it was arranged by Zhu Feng?
At this moment, it was not only the surprise and surprise of facing the sudden enemy, but more importantly, a trace of uneasiness rose faintly in his heart.
Their military camp was only ten miles away.
In order not to be discovered by the people in the city, he led a group of elites to ambush in the birch forest, and in the barracks, there was a large number of soldiers, although they did not follow, they were all preparing for war.
As soon as the battle starts here, they will come to support at any time.
However, what appeared in front of him at this moment was such a group of cavalry.
There were quite a few of them, and even now, many of them had just rushed out of the birch forest, and it was obvious that they might have laid an ambush around the birch forest in advance, and there was no place around them to ambush.
The only possibility is that-
They're from the barracks!
Just thinking about it, a drop of cold sweat slipped down his forehead.
How can it be?!
There are so many people in the camp that it's impossible to let these people appear behind them without a word!
These thoughts flashed through his mind, and in front of him, the sound of killing was coming!
Anyway, let's get past this first!
Zhu Xuan gritted his teeth and roared: "Kill them!" ”
Suddenly, smoke and dust rose everywhere.
The two groups of men and horses were slaughtered under the city gate.
The cavalry still had an absolute advantage in the impact, and the first wave scattered the soldiers at the front of the formation, and in an instant, the screams shook the sky, and the long neighing of the horses mixed with the terrible screams of those people resounded in front of the city tower for a while.
At this moment, Nanyan had already followed Zhu Feng to the city tower.
The wind howled on the city tower, with the murderous aura rising below, giving people a great sense of oppression, as soon as they climbed the city tower, the south smoke was blown to the ground, and almost fell.
However, Zhu Feng immediately protected her waist with one hand.
"Your Majesty!"
Zhu Feng ignored her, but immediately walked to the front and looked down against the wall.
Nanyan also hurriedly followed.
Although at this moment, the sky has quickly darkened, and only a faint afterglow and the torches on the city tower remain, but the light on the battlefield below is still terrifying
After the cavalry rushed into the infantry camp, they began to fight in close combat.
For a time, the sword and sword shadows, flesh and blood flying.
Nanyan saw this scene, which was no stranger to him at all, and still felt a little palpitation, no matter what kind of war, bloodshed and sacrifice could never be avoided.
And watching people die in war, like lives being devoured by this monster called "war", also makes people feel a kind of sadness that rises from the bottom of their hearts.
Soon, there was a river of blood and corpses all over the field.
But it's evenly matched.
Although the cavalry was brave, the infantry brought by Zhu Xuan was also his elite after all, so it was stalemate and could not fight for a long time.
And those cavalry rushed all the way to kill, and the infantry retreated in formation, and even retreated to the bottom of the city tower.
As soon as Zhu Xuan turned around, he saw the city gate, but at this time, it hadn't been closed yet!
His eyes lit up.
Seeing that those cavalry were still gathering, he immediately waved his hand and shouted loudly to the soldiers around him: "Leave them alone, rush into the city, and catch the emperor!" ”
When the people heard this, they immediately turned around.
Sure enough, the gates haven't been closed yet!
God help me!
Everyone had already killed themselves, their eyes were full of blood, and the city gate was not closed, as if God had given them a way.
"Rush!"
