Chapter Ninety-Eight: Blood in the City

Zhu Quan and Xu Ying saw those Ming army knights who were holding sharp blades, galloping horses, and rushing into Gyeongju City like a tide, with fierce lights in their eyes and hideous faces, hurriedly took off the armor of the Yuan army on their bodies, for fear of accidentally injuring people.

In the flow of people, as soon as the three knights saw Zhu Quan after entering the door, they couldn't help but show joy on their faces, rode horses to the two of them, jumped off the horse and bowed, it was Zhu Quan's henchman Jing Jun, Sima Chao and scholar Ma Sanbao.

Zhu Quan stretched out his hand to take the reins of the "dark clouds covering snow" in Jing Jun's hand, turned his head and saw Ma Sanbao's slightly immature face under the light of the fire, and couldn't help but reprimand softly: "I told you to stay in Marshal Feng Sheng's army that day and take care of Mr. Jing, so you didn't come out with me." Why did you run into such a dangerous situation today? It turned out that he saw that Ma Sanbao was still younger than himself, and he couldn't bear him to take risks here. The old Mr. Jing mentioned in his mouth is naturally Jing Kun, who is a teacher in his Ning Wang's mansion.

Ma Sanbao looked at the place where the two armies were fighting not far away, and heard the screams of the Yuan army being trampled by the knights of the Ming army, and he was a little afraid in his heart, but when he heard Zhu Quan say this, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and said strongly: "Your Highness has left these days, and I often follow Brother Jingjun to practice martial arts." It turned out that since he followed Zhu Quan, he pestered Jing Jun from time to time, and Sima Chao taught the two of them the martial arts of archery and horses.

Xu Ying whispered in Zhu Quan's ear: "I'll watch him." ”

When Zhu Quan heard her say this, he was a little relieved, turned over his horse, and led a few people towards the open place, where Lan Yu gathered the knights.

At this time, although the number of Yuan troops in the city was numerous, they were taken by surprise, they were caught off guard, and there was no one to command the overall situation, trampling on the war horses of the Ming army, waving knives and slashing, but in a moment there were already corpses everywhere, blood flowed like a river, and countless casualties were killed.

As more and more Ming knights entered the city, the rockets flying in the air of Gyeongju City became more and more dense, and the fire oil soaked in the rockets was extremely flammable, which was specially used for fire attacks and burned the enemy's grain and grass. .com

At this time, thousands of rockets flew above the house like countless meteors flying in the air, and suddenly flamed everywhere. In addition, the season is in the middle of winter, the air is dry, and after a while, it has faintly become a prairie fire, and the fire takes advantage of the wind and gradually spreads from north to south.

The two captains under the command of Guolai rushed to Guolai's residence in embarrassment, only to find that the main general had already died cold, so he had to try his best to restrain his subordinates, gather people and horses to retreat to the house, and avoid the pursuit of the Ming knights. Their nomadic tribe was known for their cavalry, and they knew that attacking the cavalry with foot soldiers in the open area of the city was tantamount to sending them to death. Under the spread of the fire, a group of Yuan soldiers screamed and ran out of the house, and the flames on their bodies were scattered.

Lan Yu turned his head to look at the ramp near the south gate on the city wall, and saw that the Ming army in the city already had thousands of people, so he immediately ordered his subordinates to take over the front and lead the army to fight safely. The long sword in his hand pointed at the ramp, and said categorically: "You immediately lead 2,000 people to kill the city wall, no matter how many casualties there are, you must also defend the ramp, and you can't let the Yuan army attack the city wall." ”

Zhu Quan and several people arrived at this time, he had previously killed the Yuan army sentry on the city wall, at this time he heard Lan Yu's words, and suddenly woke up, thinking: At this time, there are still many Yuan troops in the city, if they are killed and rushed to the city wall with thousands of people, not only escaped the fire attack, but can still condescendingly attack our army with bows and arrows. Thinking of this, he turned his head suddenly, and said in a deep voice to Jingjun and Sima Chao beside him: "You two follow Ping'an, lead the army to kill the city wall, and defend a few ramps. The king himself led his army to seize the other side, and each advanced towards the north gate. With that, he turned over and dismounted, and ran up the ramp near the south gate with Xu Ying.

Seeing him say this, Lan Yu nodded, waved his long sword, and shouted: "Those who take a step back on the city wall will be killed immediately." After he gave an order, a group of Ming troops turned over and dismounted, followed by Zhu Quan, Ping'an and others rushed onto the city wall, divided into two sides, and rushed forward on the city wall.

Qin Zhuofeng at the south gate saw that Lan Yu's army had all entered the city, so he immediately stretched out his hand to close the two heavy gates, grabbed the heavy door latches with both hands, and bolted them firmly. The strong internal force was everywhere, the iron chain made a "gurgling" sound, and the south gate had been locked, and he turned his head to see Zhu Quan and Xu Ying leading the army to fight on the city wall, jumping and running towards them.

The city wall is only more than one long and wide, and there are still bricks and stones piled up everywhere, rolling wood, and there are too many people to use it. Zhu Quan immediately ordered the rest of the Ming army to be more than ten zhang behind, and under the leadership of Ma Sanbao, he shot at the Yuan army at the front wall with a bow and arrow. But he and Xu Ying held a long sword and killed side by side. The two of them practiced martial arts together every day, and they had joined forces against the enemy several times, and they had their own tacit understanding with each other.

Ma Sanbao led a group of Ming troops behind him, followed closely, shooting arrows while running, and ordered those soldiers behind him to lift the fallen Yuan army on the city wall, whether they were dead or alive, and all of them were thrown off the city, so as not to block the march of the brigade behind.

At this time, most of the houses in Gyeongju City were already burning, and countless Yuan soldiers ran towards the north gate with a scream on their clothes, and many of them ran to death as soon as they ran out of the house and couldn't take two steps. The flames are more effective than any military order, and there is no need for the commander headed by the Yuan army to give an order, and there are already a tide of Yuan soldiers rushing up the ramp along the west gate and the east gate.

It turned out that Gyeongju Fortress used to have four gates of "east, west, north and south", and in order to concentrate troops to defend the city, Pyeongjang Guolai sealed the two gates with bricks and stones, but the ramp to carry defensive equipment to the city is still there.

The Yuan army on the city wall was scattered, and Zhu Quan and Xu Ying moved forward very fast. At this time, he suddenly rushed to a group of Yuan troops, immediately blocked the road, brandished a scimitar, and fought with the two of them.

Originally, when the two armies were fighting, no matter how high the martial arts were, they could not defeat thousands of troops, but unfortunately at this time, due to the limitations of the terrain, no matter how many Yuan troops there were, there were only three or four who could wield their blades in front of them. Although Zhu Quan and Xu Ying were facing a large number of enemies, there was no danger, and in a flash, Qingfeng flickered and gave the lives of more than a dozen Yuan troops.

Zhu and Xu were already covered in blood at this time, and even the long sword in their hands was a little curled. Helplessly, the number of Yuan troops was too large, even if they raised their hands to kill a few, they were still coming one after another, which greatly slowed down the advance of the Ming army on the city wall.

Zhu Quan felt the heat wave rolling on his side, knowing that the fire in the city was spreading more and more, and the Yuan army coming to the city would only increase, so he couldn't help but feel anxious, but he was helpless.

Ma Sanbao stood behind Zhu Quan, opened his bow and arrows, just shot a Yuan army in the throat in the distance, and suddenly felt that his right shoulder was heavy, and a figure in black clothes flew over his head like a bird, and he was in mid-air, stretched out his hand, caught a few powerful arrows flying through the air, and threw them out with his backhand. At the same time that several Yuan troops fell to the ground with arrows, they had already landed on the city wall, and in front of Zhu Quan and Xu Ying was Qin Zhuofeng.

Zhu Quan and Xu Ying were a little soft, seeing the arrival of the master, they were overjoyed in their hearts, and they were about to speak, but they saw that in the middle of the Yuan army, a tall centurion rushed forward with a shout in his mouth, grabbed his head and slashed at Qin Zhuofeng.

Qin Zhuofeng turned his head and said in a deep voice to Zhu Quan and Xu Ying: "You two stand back and open the way for the teacher." As he spoke, he did not slow down in his hand, and his right hand was raised lightly and skillfully, first and second, before the centurion scimitar fell, and he borrowed force from his elbow.

The long-grown Yuan army suddenly rose up, and with a terrible scream, flew out of the city wall and fell into the flaming house.

Zhu, Xu Er heard his orders, so he immediately led Ma Sanbao and the Ming army behind him to follow, no longer rushing to fight, so as to take a moment of respite.

Qin Zhuofeng grabbed two steps, squeezed into the pile of Yuan soldiers, slapped his palm, punched, and beat several Yuan soldiers with broken tendons and fractures, he still felt that it was too troublesome, so he simply grabbed two Yuan soldiers with his hands and threw them into the flames in the city.

In an instant, several Yuan soldiers had already plucked a radish for him, "pulled" it and threw it, fell into the fire, and did not fall to his death, but also lost his life in the flames.

Although these Yuan troops were fierce and abnormal, under such a terrain, they could not rush up and give full play to the advantage of numbers, but they were crowded with their own people.

Qin Zhuofeng was very happy in his heart, and said in his heart: "In the past, when he encountered the Yuan army brigade, the old man could only retreat, but today he can kill happily." "When his mind turned, he just grabbed the two Yuan soldiers and wanted to throw them, suddenly his complexion changed greatly, his body was backwards, and he fell straight to the ground, and just pulled the two Yuan army covers with his hand, covering himself tightly, and there was a dense sound of arrows like raindrops in his ears, and the limbs of the two Yuan soldiers in his hands twitched, and his back was already full of dozens of feather arrows

After Zhu Quan waved his hand to block the two arrows flying in the air, he stretched out his right hand, suddenly grabbed Xu Ying's slender waist, and rolled sideways towards a pile of rolling logs.

Ma Sanbao's shoulder was bleeding profusely, but fortunately, there were two Ming soldiers in front of him who were covered by their bodies, and he was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, if it weren't for this, he would definitely be shot like a hedgehog.

It turned out that at this time, on the city wall more than 20 zhang away in front, hundreds of Yuan troops who were driven by flames were crowded, and seeing that Qin Zhuofeng was fierce, he immediately disregarded the life and death of his own people, and fired arrows together.

These Yuan soldiers have been practicing bow and horses since childhood, and they only talk about archery skills, far surpassing Lan Yu's men. Under the cover of a rain of arrows, even their own people and the Ming army, "Hulala" shot down dozens of people.
