Volume 1 The Emperor of the Fallen Grass Chapter 3 The Fall of Luoyang
When the day was completely bright, a team without a flag was already walking on the official road to Luoyang.
Sun Ning did not sit in the carriage according to Wei Shen's wishes, but rode his horse like other Yu Linwei, and his riding skills were not much better than those soldiers who rode all day.
Such a performance even more aroused the admiration of the hearts of the soldiers, and many thought that the emperor had been hiding all along, or that he was lying on his salary to taste his courage.
After traveling for more than ten miles, suddenly two teams of men and horses were galloping towards them, one after the other.
The hundreds of people who fled in front of them were all in broken armor, and they didn't even have a complete flag, they were really like lost dogs.
There were more than a thousand chasing behind, but they were extremely fierce and hideous, and they could only hear them shouting loudly from a distance: "Don't let go of these government lackeys!" Kill them all! ”
In the blink of an eye, the two sides were already close, and Yan Hu's expression changed drastically after taking a closer look: "Your Majesty, they are...... It's the defenders of the capital......"
Sun Ning was also stunned when he heard this, which seemed to mean only one possibility.
But now he didn't care about asking and thinking about it, he immediately drew his sword in his hand, urged the war horse, and rushed forward decisively, shouting in his mouth: "The Yulin guards will listen to the order and follow me to break the enemy!" ”
After shouting this, without waiting for others to respond, Sun Ning had already rushed out in the lead.
Yan Hu was also stunned, and immediately reacted, and then yelled: "Kill!" ”
Immediately after, he rode his horse forward with all his might.
The other Yulin guards finally shouted separately and rode their horses to follow.
For a moment, the people roared and neighed, and the whole team rushed towards the front team like a galloping tiger and leopard.
This can scare the defeated army who is desperately fleeing.
They all thought that the rebels still had reinforcements and ambushes here, and some of them had even resigned themselves to death. As a result, the men and horses rushed to them, and they saw clearly what the soldiers were wearing, and then they turned from despair to ecstasy.
It's the Yulin Army!
The feeling of being a Jedi is so wonderful that many people have begun to cry and scream.
Then, after seeing the man at the front of the line, their ecstasy was replaced by great astonishment.
Is that...... Your Majesty?
How is this possible?
Before they had time to ask more questions, Sun Ning had already rushed past them and decisively collided head-on with the pursuers in the rear.
When he looked at it again, he saw that the steel knife in Sun Ning's hand had already slashed into the shoulder blade of the enemy general in front of him, almost cutting his shoulder in two.
After quickly closing the shot, Sun Ning's momentum of rushing forward did not slow down in the slightest, and he continued to rush forward, and while he slightly turned sideways to dodge the two spears that attacked, the blood-drenched steel knife in his hand had slashed out again.
The blade slashed down the shaft of the spear, and after severing their arms, it swept up again, and with two pops, the blade slashed past the waists of the two knights almost simultaneously, knocking them off their horses. And these two people couldn't even stop Sun Ning's speed of rushing forward.
This performance increased the morale of the whole army even more, Yan Hu led people to rush faster, and at the same time as Sun Ning and the third wave of enemies, he launched a frontal battle with the enemy.
This enemy army only relied on the large number of people before, and the defeated army had no intention of resisting to chase and kill.
But in fact, their combat power is very unbearable, and most of them are foot soldiers. After facing thousands of high-morale Yulin Guard cavalry, it was naturally a big defeat, and hundreds of people fell in just one round of killing.
The others, seeing this, also completely lost the courage to fight again, and immediately turned around and ran away. has long lost the arrogance of chasing the north before.
After Sun Ning swung his knife and killed several people in a row, he shouted: "Poor Kou Mo chase!" ”
For him now, it is useless to defeat such a rebel army, and the top priority is to hurry back to the capital.
Naturally, no one dared to disobey the emperor's order, and Yan Hu and the others immediately began to surround and shrink, only surround and trap the last hundred people, and let the other enemies flee.
Then, there was a complete war of annihilation, and all the enemy troops who were encircled were killed, and no one was left.
A skirmish ended in less than an hour, and more than 100 rebel corpses fell on the ground, but only two people on Yu Linwei's side were slightly injured.
When this result was discovered by everyone, the morale of the soldiers was high again, and when they looked at the emperor's eyes, they were already full of worship.
Sun Ning didn't care about this, he had decisively returned to his horse, and came to those deserters who were also greatly encouraged, and asked Le Ma, "Who is the main general here?" ”
"He Qing, the commander of the garrison of the outer city, greets Your Majesty......" A man with a bloody face in the team pounced and knelt in front of Sun Ning.
"Your Majesty, the ministers deserve death...... The minister failed to hold Luoyang City... Woo woo woo ........." He Qing immediately cried loudly, and while he spoke, he kowtowed hard, and in just a few words, blood was already seen on his forehead.
Sun Ning sat on the horse and didn't say much, just asked, "What do you mean, but Luoyang City has already fallen?" ”
"Positive...... Precisely. ”
"It can't be!" Yan Hu's reaction was greater than Sun Ning's, and he couldn't care about trespassing at this time, he couldn't help but shout, "Luoyang has 200,000 guards in various guard camps, how can it not be defended?" ”
"Your Majesty, it's because ...... Early in the morning, there were guards and officials of the DPRK and China who colluded with the rebels, and on the night when the 150,000 Pingtian army under the command of Zhao Yi arrived in the city, someone secretly opened the Ding'an Gate and let the rebels in.
"Then many wealthy families in the city suddenly raised their troops and launched a sneak attack on us...... In addition, there are even traitors in our garrison, and everything inside and outside the capital was lost overnight, so the minister can only escape with the remnants and report to His Majesty......"
