Chapter 695: Golden Tiger's Last Breath
The night was like sticky and dried blood, full of dead air, and the sky-high fire of Luoyang City, like the tentacles of demons, stirred up this dead night sky.
The sky must be quiet, and the gods sit on the throne at the top of the sea of stars, indifferently watching the killing in the world.
And the warriors in the world are still fighting, maybe they have an immortal faith and will in their hearts, or they are just ignorant, seeking wealth and power, or they may only know how to be a soldier, and they don't know how to live their lives.
Everyone had a reason to fight, everyone was in danger of dying at any moment, but no one flinched.
Whether it is Zong Yun's rebel army, or the Mongol defenders of Luoyang City, or Guo Dongjia's rebel brothers.
Everyone is not sure that they will live, but everyone tries to live, and if they want to live, it is best to fight desperately, like a snake biting its tail, which is a paradox at all.
That's what's interesting about human beings, these paradoxes sound like they don't have a reason to exist, but they don't make any sense at all.
It's just that no one thinks about this, on the battlefield, there is only one thought, either to kill the enemy, or to live, after all, ordinary soldiers are the majority, and sometimes they can't even control their own life and death.
Jin Hu is one of them, although his martial arts are good, but he has always rushed to the forefront, as if he is calling out a provocation to the king of Hades!
His sword had been slashed, but he was still headbutting the enemy army at the head of the city!
There seems to be no focus in his eyes, or there is no shadow of the enemy in his eyes, and everything in his eyes will become an obstacle and must be removed!
"Silver Tiger... Silver Tiger... Silver Tiger..."He kept muttering to himself, as if he had been stunned, but the straight knife in his hand seemed to be integrated into the flesh and blood, and it was difficult to separate!
The defenders at the head of the city can be said to be under the enemy's back, although they are numerous, but I don't know who cut off the head of the commander Ye Kugai, carried it with a spear, and sent it to the head of the city!
This head exploded like a bomb in a frying pan, pushing the entire city of Luoyang into the abyss of chaos and destruction!
The defenders, especially the Mongols, were so shocked by the bad news and disbelief that they were really in a leaderless situation, and the generals took the opportunity to fight for control and quarreled so much that many had begun to gather private soldiers to fight for power!
They didn't take the Han army or the new annexed army in Luoyang City into account, because in their opinion, these lowly slaves and maids did not have the courage to take the opportunity to rebel, and the defense of the city head had been arranged, so there was no need to worry about it in a short time.
If it is impossible to elect a candidate to temporarily take over and act in charge, Luoyang will be even more chaotic.
It's just that no one expected that Guo Dongjia, an old man who only promises and doesn't fight back on weekdays, will actually rebel!
Although he couldn't touch the city defenses and couldn't go to the city to do things, he instructed the Han army of the Semu people to infiltrate the armament camp and light the gunpowder magazine of the return artillery!
In order to defend the city, the defenders moved the supplies into the city early, Luoyang is densely populated, and the buildings are lined up one after another, once the fire is burned, it will be difficult to extinguish it!
While the Mongol generals were still arguing, Guo Dongjia had already launched an operation, and the thief army outside the city launched a surprise attack in a short time!
Jin Hu was not a member of the pioneer battalion, the pioneer battalion and the Taiyi Army of the Tired Army have always fought on the front line, and they are the three most courageous battalions in the righteous army.
Now that Luoyang is being attacked, the vanguard battalion and the Taiyi Army, the tired army, have never been in the line of fire, and they are the ones who take the lead when the ants are attached to the city.
At this time, the rules set by Zong Yun earlier showed their effect.
The Mongol slaves captured by the Tired Victory Army and the Taiyi Army have long since died after such a long time of training, and they also have a certain advantage in being cannon fodder and risking their lives to enter the city.
If there were Han troops and new annexed troops at the head of the city, they would be surprised when they saw that the Mongols were attacking the city, and they would have some scruples about it, at least in their hearts, subconsciously they could not refuse this.
In the same way, if there were Mongols at the head of the city, how surprised they would be when they found out that it was also Mongols who had come to attack Luoyang!
Although the defenders of Luoyang had a total of more than 100,000 people, while the rebels only had 350,000, they had not had time to take the initiative to go out of the city to counterattack, and they had already been bombarded by Franco's machine guns.
Seeing that he was about to adapt to the intensity of the indiscriminate bombardment of the artillery, he was stolen into the city by Zong Yun at this time, and killed this Mongolian Wanhu with a single move!
The brothers of the rebel army were convinced of Zong Yun, the sect master, and even said that the sect master would carry out a surprise attack tonight, then he would definitely raid it.
When an earth-shattering explosion sounded in Luoyang City, and the powder magazine was lit by Guo Dongjia's people, the rebels took advantage of the panic of the defenders to launch a night attack on the city!
After Yinhu died, Jin Hu's whole body became in a trance, and the battalion commander also had the intention to send him back to his hometown, but Jin Hu was unwilling.
As soon as the horn of the night attack sounded, the golden tiger mixed into the pioneer camp and climbed to the top of the city with the people of the pioneer camp!
His mind was full of the scene when the silver tiger died, brandishing a straight knife, climbing up without a price, the cannon fell, and he used a big shield to protect his body, as if the silver tiger was protecting him, and really let him take the lead in the city!
The barbarians' spears pierced through the golden tiger's shoulder, but he grabbed the barrel of the spear and forcibly rushed forward, slashing the barbarian with a single sword!
He didn't dare to pull out his spear, his chest was burning like a blazing fire, and a victorious soldier behind him waved a knife to help him cut off the barrel of the spear, and the golden tiger fought again!
The golden tiger endured the severe pain, and as soon as he stood up, the defenders came to kill him, and the shield was on his body, wanting to push them down directly!
This city is almost three feet high, and if it falls, even if it does not fall to death on the spot, it will not live long, and the brothers of the Golden Tiger and the Victorious Army will resist to the death.
However, the spearmen of the defenders were behind the shield array, and stabbed their spears out from between the gaps, and the golden tiger was wounded in the shoulder, and some of his feet were unsteady, and he was immediately pushed to the side of the wall, but fortunately his back was a battlement, and it was impossible to push him down, but it was possible to crush him into flesh, or nail him to the battlements with a spear!
"Silver Tiger... Silver Tiger... You look at me... Look at my brother!" Jin Hu shouted in his heart, burst out with infinite strength, gritted his steel teeth, roared suddenly, supported the wall with his feet, and his body was like a spring compressed to the extreme, suddenly released, and pushed the big shield open, and the shield array was suddenly broken!
The golden tiger crashed into the shield array and approached the spearman, because the distance was too close, the spearman could not turn around freely, and the golden tiger brandished the big knife and slashed seven or eight people at once!
After the knife player let the golden tiger break the opening, the pressure on the victorious army was greatly reduced, and under the counterattack, they actually opened a protective ring at the head of the city, relying on this protective circle, the brothers under the city can finally continue to climb the city!
In the eyes of the golden tiger, he could no longer see anything except the enemy, he tirelessly waved the blade, numbly and mechanically dodged and blocked, and in the end even gave up his defense completely, allowing the sword to slash at his body, which was completely a life-for-life fight!
Everyone in the rebel army knew that they would rather go to the sect master and speak meat than dare to provoke those who were tired of the victorious army.
In their opinion, the people who are tired of the victorious army are just simple murderous demons, just war machines, without any humanity, and their brutality in treating the slaves under their command is even more criticized, and many people are unwilling to join Zong Yun's righteous army because they are tired of the victorious army.
But at this time, after the victorious army attacked the city, there was a glorious emotion in his eyes.
Everyone knew that if there was no suzerain to infiltrate the city, and no suzerain had succeeded in creating civil strife, they would not have any chance of attacking at night.
The person who wears the victorious army is not the first to ascend the city this time, and it seems to have broken the convention and rule that the victorious army is always the first to ascend the city, because the first person to ascend the city is the golden tiger!
It is precisely because of the Golden Tiger's efforts to move forward that they were able to gain a firm foothold in the city, to open up the Dengcheng District, and to see the hope of victory!
But at this time, they looked at it, the golden tiger had fallen into the heavy encirclement of the defenders, and the man who had lost his brother was like an undead lost in killing and pain, his flesh and blood were still hot, but his heart was cold, even if he was alive, he didn't seem to be in the world.
Although the Victorious Army kills people without blinking, and although they are regarded as inhumane, they have never been ashamed of their brothers.
They saw that the golden tiger was caught in the siege, so they rushed forward in a swarm, and used their bodies to kill a bloody path!
But at this moment, the golden tiger in the enemy formation was pierced through the body by seven or eight spears!
Jin Hu's vision was blurred, he couldn't feel the existence of his body, only stubborn obsession, with the last of his strength, roared.
"Silver Tiger, where are you!"
There was a kind of sadness and anger in the air, like a terrible wind, entangled in the hearts of everyone, as if the city was isolated, everyone was immersed in this tragic atmosphere, limbs, every pore, but permeated with a moving emotion.
The eyes of the victorious army were hot, and these brothers of the Murder Legion, who had already had a tacit understanding, replied in unison in the direction of the Golden Tiger at this time.
"Brother, I'm here!"
The golden tiger's body shook, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but unfortunately his breath was exhausted, and he couldn't answer, but there were tears flowing from the corners of his eyes, and the last trace of residual thoughts lingered in his heart, as if to remind him that there were hundreds of silver tigers behind him!
"Stop them!"
The defender saw that everyone was tired of the victory, and was about to fall into madness, and his heart was terrified, so he immediately commanded the overseer army and drove the guard to the city!
also died suddenly, Guo Dongjia's people were in chaos in the city, the major thousands of households and military commanders were fighting for military power, and the overseer army seemed to have become no longer fearful.
Even so, there are still countless defenders, surging towards the city, and the righteous army that has poured into the city with the tired army and the Taiyi army, etc., have started a desperate hand-to-hand fight!
The blood flowed along the brick cracks of the city wall, converging into a stream, and sliding down from the city wall, just like the blood and tears left by Luoyang's mother because of the killing!
The brothers of the Tired Victory Army and the Taiyi Army were inspired by the Golden Tiger, and their blood was boiling and full of murderous intentions, and the defenders at the head of the city finally couldn't stand it anymore, and the tide retreated!
However, many brothers stood at the head of the city, and when they looked at it, the fire in the city was soaring, and in the firelight, the black and oppressive crowds of people kept pouring from all over the city, and they kept pouring towards the city gate, and there were not many of them, and they were all defenders!
Although Guo Dongjia's people raised the flag and rebelled, they couldn't get close to the city gate at all, let alone open the city gate!
There are so many defenders, just standing stupidly like wooden stakes, letting the rebels cut off their heads, I'm afraid that they won't be able to cut it all in one night, the number of suppressions is too great, this should be called the Great Wall of Flesh and Blood!
