Chapter 540: Divine Soldier

It has been two days and one night since Jiang Bowen launched the attack. During this time, whether it was Jin Wuwei or Long Youwei, they never stopped.

Everyone has reached the end of the crossbow, everyone is fighting for the last breath, thinking about persevering and persevering, and no one will give up until the last moment.

Giving up is a dead end.

The two warring sides are still in a stalemate, and it is difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat. Inside and outside Jingzhao City, there were countless corpses piled up, including those of Jin Wuwei and those of Long Youwei, and both sides suffered heavy losses.

The Jin Wuwei led by Wei Yanqing occupied the commanding heights such as the city walls and fortresses, and even if the troops were insufficient, they suppressed Jiang Bowen's offensive to the death.

Long Youwei relied on the sky-high fire of the Crossbow Fang Department to attack when the hearts of the people and the army were in turmoil, and they also approached the gate of Jingzhao City several times, and almost entered the city.

At the critical juncture, it was the Zhigu reinforcements who used their flesh and blood to block the bow and crossbow of the Longyou Guard, and earned time for the crossbow bed on the city wall, so they forced the Long Right Guard to retreat.

Now the battle situation in Jingzhao City is that the soldiers of the Longyou Guard are not afraid of death and advance in the direction of the city gate; The crossbow bed of the Jingzhao City Wall was constantly firing crossbow arrows to stop the approach of the Longyou Guard.

"General, if it goes on like this, Jingzhao won't be able to hold out for long! Even if the soldiers are strong, they don't have bows and crossbows! ”

In the official office of the Ministry of War, Zheng Diheng said to Wei Yanqing anxiously. The Crossbow Workshop Department is under the Ministry of War, but suddenly a fire broke out, and most of the crossbow and weapons were destroyed in the fire, and even the craftsmen were burned to death.

Without bows and crossbow weapons, it is equivalent to no rice to cook, and no matter how capable a daughter-in-law is, it is useless. The court's original confidence in protecting Jingzhao was destroyed by the fire of the Crossbow Workshop.

Judging from this situation, the Jin Wuwei soldiers can only hold out for half a day at most, and the arrows are exhausted, which is when the Jin Wuwei is defeated.

"Gather Jingzhao officials and merchants, and order them to hand over all the weapons in their homes, as many as they can, otherwise, they will wait for the city to be destroyed!"

Wei Yanqing said calmly, his expression not showing anxiety.

Jingzhao's officials are large, and there are guards at home, so in order to survive in the troubled times, there will definitely be no shortage of weapons stored in the home. Since the Crossbow Workshop has no weapons, it will be taken from these people.

Zheng Diheng received the order, took the officials of the military department and the soldiers of Jin Wuwei, summoned the officials of the DPRK and China and the merchants of Jingzhao, and asked them for weapons.

In troubled times, heavy codes are used, and extraordinary things are used by extraordinary laws. Zheng Diheng directly detained these officials and big businessmen and asked their families to ransom them with weapons.

Although this method was criticized by court officials and businessmen, it was very effective. In less than two hours, Zheng Diheng had already collected a large number of bows and crossbow weapons, which could allow the Jin Wuwei soldiers to support them for a while.

It wasn't until these people couldn't take out weapons anymore that Zheng Diheng let them go. At the same time, he also gathered some craftsmen and used all the common people, so that they could hurry up and make crossbow arrows.

Only with all their strength to defend Jingzhao and hold their capital.

Despite all the efforts, the Jinwuwei soldiers only lasted one night. When the sun rose on the third day, there were no more crossbows on the city walls.

The rain of arrows thinned out and weakened, and both sides of the war knew it. There are no crossbow arrows in Jingzhao City, and the opportunity for Longyouwei has come!

Close combat, with the sword in his hand, to survive the confrontation between the two armies, this is the choice placed in front of the Jin Wuwei soldiers.

And the strength of Long Youwei is superior, once the two armies face each other, Jin Wuwei will definitely be at a disadvantage. However, no one can remedy this disadvantage!

In Jingzhao City, there were already scattered people disturbing them. They all knew that Long Youwei was about to break through Jingzhao. For a moment, the cries of children, the cries of adults, and the chirping of livestock seemed to erupt.

Jiang Bowen looked at the rain of arrows that gradually stopped, and the smile on his face was irrepressible. Finally waited for this step, finally waited for this day, the Jiang family's decades of hard work and solitude, finally came to pay off!

The horn sounded again, and the golden sword in Jiang Bowen's hand shone brightly in the sunlight. Long Youwei stepped on the remnants of snow on the ground and rushed to the gate of Jingzhao City.

The soldiers guarding the city wall, looking at the surging soldiers of Longyouwei, then looked at the crossbow in their hands, gritted their teeth, and raised the big knife in their hands.

They want to stay here, cut the ropes and ladders of the Longyou guard, they want to guard Jingzhao, and they want to guard Dayong!

Wei Yanqing and Zheng Diheng had already left the official office of the military department and came to the city gate in full uniform. As the main general, they must live and die with these soldiers and fight to the death with Longyouwei.

The soldiers of the Longyou Guard were getting closer and closer, and the Jinwuwei soldiers on the city wall, looking at these black and oppressive heads, felt more and more intense in their hearts.

With so many Long Right Guards, even at the end of the crossbow, Jin Wuwei will definitely not be able to defeat these people. Jin Wuwei will die, Jingzhaocheng will die, and the people will suffer!

Jin Wuwei was ready to die, especially the soldiers standing on the city wall, they even leaned out and shouted to the Longyou guard below: "Traitors who plot to rebel against the country!" Heaven will kill you! ”

They screamed these words, and they were not afraid of life and death. At such a moment, the courage of the sergeant burst out.

Compared with the bravery of these soldiers, there was a fear of death for many people, including courtiers and civilians. Jingzhao City is broken, they have no place to live, and their lives are not guaranteed at any time!

Is Jingzhao City about to break? Who else can save them? Can the heavens protect Jingzhao?!

"Please be gracious and save us!"

"Please God help us!"

The sound of prayers continued to sound, and the streets of Xifang East City poured out of the people, who either knelt on the streets, or rushed to the two major temples to protect the country and repay their kindness, and kowtowed to petition.

Do not seek for yourself, but for the ethereal and ethereal gods and Buddhas. The fear of death among the officials and people of Jingzhao has reached this level.

Who will save them...... Can God hear them?

Longyouwei had already approached the gate of Jingzhao City, and the siege beam carried by hundreds of soldiers approached the city gate little by little.

Wei Yanqing and Zheng Diheng held the big knife in their hands, and only shouted: "People are in the city, people are dead in the city!" ”

This sentence is almost the standard configuration of the slogan of defending the city. What else can they say besides this phrase?

The feeling of dying, the fear of dying, is indescribable. But who can save them?

"Bang!" The siege beam of the Longyou Guard, which had already been installed with the heavy Jingzhao City Gate, made a loud noise.

Coming, death coming. - That's what everyone in Jingzhao City thinks.

At this moment, the Jinwuwei soldiers on the city wall looked intently into the distance, and suddenly shouted: "What is that?!" ”

On the huge clearing at the foot of Beshan Mountain, there seems to be a red line, and this red line seems to be getting bigger and louder!

The Jin Wuwei soldiers on the city wall can see it clearly, what kind of red line is it, this is a soldier! Soldiers in red armor!

A steady stream appeared on the side of the other mountain, and it was impossible to see how many people there were.

The armor of the Daeyong soldiers is turquoise, and even if they are the main generals, they are not red. Soldier in red armor, who is it?!

With the shouts of the Jinwuwei soldiers on the city wall, Wei Yanqing and Jiang Bowen, who were inside and outside the city wall, moved rapidly as if they had been woken up in an instant.

One leaped swiftly onto the wall, the other jerked back.

The sunlight and remnant snow, reflecting the red armor, looked like a red sea from a distance, shaking people can't open their eyes.

Above the Red Sea, there are two flags raised high, fluttering in the cold wind, as if they are rustling.

The bright red flag, with the golden words "forbidden" and "Shen" in the middle, suddenly entered the eyes of Jin Wuwei and Long Youwei.

Praetorian Guard, Shen family!

Appearing behind Long Youwei was the Praetorian Guard led by the Shen family!

Didn't the Janissaries go to Hanoi Province? How did it appear outside Jingzhao City? Why didn't they hear anything at all?!

In the minds of Wei Yanqing and Jin Wuwei, the Shen family and the Praetorian Guards were both traitorous thieves and the same targets that they wanted to kill, and now they also appeared outside Jingzhao City, could it be that they were in collusion with Jiang Bowen to attack Jingzhao?

Jiang Bowen looked at the bright red Shen Jiaqi, and his heartbeat accelerated suddenly. How could the Shen family's Praetorian Guards appear here? Is it to help Jin Wuwei or to fight for Jingzhao?

No matter which one it is, it's not a good thing for Jiang Bowen!

The Praetorian Guard was behind the Long Right Guard, and it was getting closer. Jin Wuwei and Long Youwei stopped all their movements, waiting to see what the Praetorian Guards would do.

Shen Zejing was riding on horseback, and like the soldiers around him, he was wearing red armor, but the armor was decorated.

He looked at the high Jingzhao city wall from afar, his beautiful hair rose in the wind, and he was also a gentleman in a military uniform.

"Kill!" Such a simple order, the one who issued the order was Shen Zesi, who commanded the right army of Shence.

When the Praetorian Guards heard this order, they immediately became loud. The soldiers of the bow and crossbow battalion at the front, standing firmly on the chariot, pulled the trigger of the crossbow bed, and the crossbow arrows shot at the Longyou guard with the power of rushing to the sky!

With the addition of the Praetorian Guard, the situation outside Jingzhao City suddenly changed. The soldiers of the Long Right Guard were forced to reflexively fight back, so that the siege action was delayed.

Long Right Guard, the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard shot Long Right Guard! These soldiers are here to save them!

"The Praetorian Guards are here to save us! The Praetorian Guards are here to save us! ”

Jin Wuwei's soldiers couldn't help but shout in ecstasy. The near-death feeling was so strong that when they saw this scene, they didn't have time to think much about who the Praetorian Guard was; Regardless of whether they rebelled or not, they only knew that these people were here to save Jingzhao!

Wei Yanqing looked at the movements outside the city, his brows furrowed into a line, his eyes were extremely complicated, and the thoughts in his mind were vibrating violently.

Immediately, he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was calm.

"Open the city gate, go one after the other with the Praetorian Guard, and kill the Long Right Guard!"

Wei Yanqing gave an order, and the Jingzhao City Gate, which was closed tightly, was hit by the siege beam several times, and the Jingzhao City Gate, which was still not moving,
