Chapter 389: King Ning's Road to Death [2 More]
Immediately, thousands of men and horses on both sides fought on this long street, and I have to say that the Praetorian Guards who still stayed to protect King Ning to the death were indeed tenacious, and their combat power was also quite good, and they were stunned to block the army that was almost twice as large as them.
The morale of these people and horses made up by various families is naturally high, after all, there is the temptation of rewarding silver and sealing the uncle, and for a while, the top is even equal.
Xiang Ping, Liu Zhu and the others watched from a distance and couldn't help frowning.
There was already a shout of killing behind him, needless to say, the imperial army must have entered the city at this time, if they couldn't take King Ning quickly, once the imperial army arrived, even if they wanted to surrender, they were afraid that there would be no benefit.
"Kill, kill me!"
More than a dozen officials clenched their fists and stared at the two sides fighting together in front of them.
It's a pity that these Praetorian Guards under King Ning fought to the death one by one, and even almost fought back, only to retreat back to the equality officials in shock.
Seeing this, King Ning couldn't help laughing, abandoned the cumbersome carriage, turned over and got on the horse, and beside him were more than a dozen civil and military henchmen.
Li Zhenshan, who was resisting Jiang Ning and the others in front, shouted at King Ning: "The last general will stay behind the palace, Your Majesty should leave quickly!" ”
I have to say that King Ning still has a group of people who are desperate and loyal to him, otherwise, King Ning would not have come to this point.
Seeing that Li Zhenshan led a part of the guards to resist Jiang Ning and the others who tried to arrest him as a senior, King Ning took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and shouted, "Let's go!" ”
Suddenly, most of the hundreds of guards turned over and rushed towards the city gate, following King Ning and the others.
Xiang Ping, Liu Zhu and others in the distance couldn't help but be very anxious when they saw this scene, and shouted: "Don't leave King Ning!" ”
Jiang Ning urged his men and horses to storm the defense line of the Praetorian Guard.
The Praetorian Guard itself was only a few hundred diehards, and at this time, most of them were divided to escort King Ning away, which means that there were only hundreds of people left to resist.
Even if the hundreds of Praetorian Guards were extremely brave, it was impossible to block the impact of hundreds of soldiers and horses.
Li Zhenshan was covered in blood, and more than a dozen soldiers fell in front of him, which can be said to be extremely brave, but at this moment, Li Zhenshan had a few arrows stuck in his body.
In the army, even if it is as strong as a congenital powerhouse, it is impossible to guarantee that he can be safe and sound, not to mention that Li Zhenshan's strength is not invincible, so a wave of arrows is fired, and Li Zhenshan has a few more arrows on his body.
The strength in his body gradually dissipated, and Li Zhenshan stood there forcibly, looking back at the back of King Ning in the distance, with a smile on his face.
With a pop, Li Zhenshan's figure fell to the ground with a bang, and at the same time as Li Zhenshan fell, Li Zhenshan only saw a team of elite soldiers rumbling on the long street in the distance, which was the imperial court soldiers and horses who had entered the city.
The first person was Sun Qiu, a fierce general in the imperial army.
Sun Qiu entered the city first, and after entering the city, the primary goal was to capture King Ning, but King Ning ran away first, and Sun Qiu, who got the news, naturally led the army to kill in a hurry.
From a distance, Sun Qiu saw two groups of men and horses fighting on the long street, but one of them was obviously at the end of the crossbow.
Seeing Li Zhenshan's figure fall to the ground, Sun Qiu had already led the imperial army to the front.
With a sweep of his eyes, Sun Qiu waved his hand and shouted: "Take down all these chaotic armies for me!" ”
Seeing that Sun Qiu led the imperial army to appear, Xiang Pingren's heart sank, and he hurriedly drove forward and shouted from afar: "General, your own people, your own people......"
It's a pity that Sun Qiu just glanced at them lightly, as if he didn't hear their shouts, and with a wave of his big hand, he immediately saw a wave of wolf-like soldiers rushing towards them.
Xiang Ping, Liu Zhu and other officials naturally changed their expressions when they saw this situation, especially when they looked at the soldiers who rushed towards them with a bad spirit, and they all showed helpless expressions.
Who will tell them whether they will be restrained or choose to resist in this situation.
The group of family members who have been guarding them are naturally loyal to Xiang Ping, Liu Zhu and others, and when they saw those court soldiers coming over, they almost instinctively showed their blades, and looked at the soldiers who rushed forward with a wary face.
I could only hear Xiang Ping shouting loudly: "Stop, everyone stop, don't resist, don't resist!" ”
Seeing that those soldiers didn't mean to stop at all, where did Xiang Ping dare to let his subordinates do it with the imperial army, wouldn't that be looking for their own death?
If you are caught, there may be a glimmer of life, once you resist, I am afraid that you will be killed on the spot.
Xiang Ping and Liu Zhu, who were tied up by two soldiers, couldn't help but say loudly to Sun Qiu: "This general, we have news of King Ning, we have news of King Ning!" ”
Sun Qiu raised his eyebrows, his eyes swept over Liu Zhu and Xiang Ping, and he waved his hand slightly: "Bring them over!" ”
Soon Liu Zhu and Xiang Ping were brought to Sun Qiu, and the two of them said to Sun Qiu with a flattering face: "This general, misunderstanding, really misunderstanding, we were also court officials before, just now, we also brought a family to try to arrest King Ning, and asked the general to ......."
Sun Qiu snorted coldly and said, "Hugh is nonsense, General Ben will ask you, how long has King Ning fled and where is he going!" ”
When Sun Qiu arrived, King Ning had just left the city gate, so Sun Qiu didn't know that if they were so fast, they would be able to see King Zhang Ning go out of the city with their own eyes.
Being reprimanded by Sun Qiu, Liu Zhu and Xiang Ping were startled, and the two of them said in the direction of the city gate: "Back to the general, King Ning escaped from the city, but they have just left the city, I'm afraid they haven't gone too far, if the general goes out of the city to catch up, the tea kung fu will be able to catch up with King Ning......"
Sun Qiu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and if he caught King Ning's words, it would be a great credit, but it was a marquis.
He Sun Qiu entered from the south gate, and there were also court generals in the east gate and west gate, and as for the north gate, Chu Yi also arranged people to guard it.
Generally speaking, the siege battle is to encircle three and one, but Chu Yi blocked the city gates everywhere, making it clear that he would not give King Ning a chance to escape, and he was not worried that the rebels in the city would choose to hold on because they had no way to retreat.
When Sun Qiu heard that King Ning had already left the city, his face suddenly showed a little nervousness.
There are people in ambush outside the north gate, if King Ning is taken away by others, wouldn't he have to pass by the same great achievement.
Thinking of this, Sun Qiu immediately left a group of men and horses to be optimistic about Liu Zhu and the others, and he shouted and immediately led his men and horses straight to the city gate.
However, it was said that King Ning rushed out of the city gate under the escort of hundreds of Praetorian Guards, an open place outside the city, and a hill in the distance, and King Ning couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw it out of the city.
But before they could run a few miles away, King Ning and the others changed their expressions greatly, and they saw a group of people and horses in front of them blocking their way.
One of the generals at the head couldn't help but show a little joy on his face when he saw King Ning and his party, this general was none other than Xu Tianzuo, who was as famous as Sun Qiu.
Xu Tianzuo was arranged to guard outside the north gate, it can be said that he was very unconvinced, why Sun Qiu could lead the army into the city, while he had to guard outside the city.
Although it is said that once Nanjing City is breached, then King Ning will inevitably choose to flee, and no one is sure which city gate King Ning will choose to escape from.
Therefore, it is indeed a beautiful difference to wait for the rabbit outside the city gate, but this is a quarter of the probability, in case King Ning does not choose the city gate to guard, it is also the same as the great achievement of the marquis.
This feeling of resignation is very unpleasant, if Xu Tianzuo is allowed to choose, he would rather choose to lead the army into the city like Sun Qiu, in case King Ning is caught in advance.
Listening to the noise in the city, Xu Tianzuo pressed the urge to rush into the city, and stayed outside the city gate, only when King Ning did not choose the city gate he guarded this time to run, he never thought that King Ning would appear like that.
Therefore, when he saw King Ning and his party, Xu Tianzuo almost shouted excitedly.
But even so, Xu Tianzuo still couldn't help but pat his horse forward, and laughed at King Ning, who had a sluggish face: "King Ning, under Xu Tianzuo, wait here for a long time!" ”
King Ning looked at Xu Tianzuo with a happy face, he didn't have to think about it to know why Xu Tianzuo was so excited, wasn't it because he waited for him?
Feng Hou, if you take him, you can be a marquis, King Ning didn't expect that he would have such a day.
Taking a deep breath, King Ning said to Xu Tianzuo: "General Xu, if you are willing to let me go, I ......"
Xu Tianzuo couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and without waiting for King Ning to finish speaking, he directly interrupted King Ning's words and said, "King Ning, just grab it!" ”
King Ning gritted his teeth and looked at the group of people behind him, and a ruthless color flashed in his eyes: "Everyone, go out with me!" ”
"We swear allegiance to Your Majesty!"
I don't know when, Yang Tinghe, who had been following King Ning's side, disappeared, but King Ning couldn't care so much at this time.
Mo said that it was Yang Tinghe, even if there were more people, King Ning didn't have so much mind to pay attention to, what he was thinking about now was how to escape and then make a comeback.
A group of guards surrounded King Ning, Liu Yangzheng and the others, and rushed straight towards Xu Tianzuo and the others who were blocking them.
At this moment, a violent sound of horses' hooves came from behind him, and it was Sun Qiu, who was chasing after him.
Sun Qiu was naturally very excited when he saw King Ning and his party from a distance, but Sun Qiu also saw Xu Tianzuo who stopped King Ning in front of him.
Sun Qiu naturally knew that Xu Tianzuo was guarding outside this city gate, and he had already expected the current situation, but he was unwilling to watch such a big credit fall into Xu Tianzuo's hands.
I saw Sun Qiu roaring at Xu Tianzuo: "Xu Tianzuo, today I will let you and I fight to see who wins King Ning first, who will be the marquis!" ”
Su Rili and the two have been fighting openly and secretly, in fact, when they saw Sun Qiu chasing him out, Xu Tianzuo had already expected this scene.
If it were him, he would also make the same choice as Sun Qiu, after all, he would not be able to watch King Ning fall into the hands of the other party.
So for Sun Qiu's choice, Xu Tianzuo was not surprised, and he was not worried, but laughed and said: "Since this is the case, then you and I will compare with each other." ”
King Ning saw that there were obstacles in front of him and chasing soldiers behind him, especially Xu Tianzuo and Sun Qiu, the two generals, did not take him in their eyes at all, but regarded him as the target of contention.
"Damn, really hateful!"
In the blink of an eye, King Ning collided with Xu Tianzuo's men and horses, and these Praetorian Guards also knew that it would not work hard at this time, so one by one they looked extremely brave, and the soldiers and horses under Xu Tianzuo who were killed alive were stagnant.
Even if it is thousands of people and horses, they are shocked by hundreds of Praetorian Guards, and I have to say that in desperation, these Praetorian Guards are really not bad.
But at this moment, Sun Qiu, who was behind him, also led the soldiers and horses to kill him, and suddenly King Ning and hundreds of others were completely surrounded.
Sun Qiu had nearly a thousand people, while Xu Tianzuo was thousands, adding up to thousands of people, and they surrounded King Ning's men and horses on the spot.
King Ning led his subordinates to attack frantically, trying to break out of the encirclement, but unfortunately, even if these Praetorian Guard soldiers fought desperately, they couldn't kill the encirclement.
With the killing of a famous Praetorian Guard sergeant, the momentum that originally relied on the brave impact gradually disappeared, it was just a cup of tea, and there were few hundreds of Praetorian Guards left, as for King Ning, he was also very embarrassed at this time.
If it weren't for the fact that King Ning and his people were protected by the Praetorian Guard, I am afraid that King Ning would have been killed by the rebels at this time.
Xu Tianzuo and Sun Qiu glanced at each other, and they all pounced on King Ning.
The Praetorian Guard soldiers who stood in front of them were their opponents, and they were killed in the blink of an eye.
Sun Qiu snorted, and with a single sword, he slashed a Praetorian Guard sergeant, and King Ning was only a foot away in front of him, and there were only a few Praetorian Guard sergeants in the middle.
At the same time, Xu Tianzuo also killed the front, and the two of them were almost the same as King Ning, as for who could win King Ning, it really depended on the luck of the two.
Although Chu Yi said that whoever can take down King Ning will be crowned a marquis, and it is said that Xu Tianzuo's soldiers under them will also have a chance.
But fools can see that Xu Tianzuo and Sun Qiu are bound to win, besides, those soldiers only have a chance, and when it comes to bravery, there are really few people who can compare with Xu Tianzuo and Sun Qiu.
When the two of them killed King Ning in front of them, the soldiers under the two had not yet been killed.
With a clanging sound, King Ning couldn't help laughing when he saw the two of them rushing towards him, and suddenly stabbed the horse under him, and suddenly the horse let out a neigh, jumped up, avoided the two of them in a daze, and plunged into a group of soldiers.
