Chapter 553: Fu Yu's Black Scale Snake King
Chapter 553: Fu Yu's Black-scaled Snake King
Stamped, almost 3,000 cavalry galloped all the way on the official road, and the road surface that was exposed to the scorching sun suddenly raised a flying earth dragon, this line of cavalry was Fu Yu and his party who had rested in Zhujia Town for half a night.
Fifty miles away, for the cavalry, fast horses and whips is half a morning's thing, after breakfast, the sun has risen, it took a little time to set off again, when the departure, most of the morning has passed, with the brigade for more than 20 miles, it is already three poles on the day, the sun is more and more poisonous.
The speed of the march was not fast, Fu Yu was also a little impatient, and it was not far from Xiangyang, so he simply took the cavalry first, and tried to reach Xiangyang City before noon, and the province was exposed to the sun in the sun, anyway, at this distance, nothing should happen.
The Xiangyang City in front of it gradually appeared in the field of vision, the entire Xiangyang City was still so listless, even the flags on the city head were drooping, and there were only a few people standing on the sentry tower at the head of the city to look, and as they approached the city gate, the scene at the city gate also came into view.
The group of city gate guards were hiding in the shadows of the city gate hole, fanning their fans, gathering in a group, only a lot of people were in and out of the city gate, so as not to be skinned by this group of guys, everything seemed to be normal, Fu Yu's heart was finally relieved.
The running war horse gradually reduced its speed, and it was no longer more than a hundred or ten meters away from the city gate, and at this time, there was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping in the city gate hole, and the people who were queuing up to enter and exit were bombarded out, and those idle guards poured out one after another, clearing the city gate, and from inside, out of a leader dressed in leather armor and carrying a war knife, like a captain of the city gate.
At the beginning, Li Tiande, the captain of the Tianshuang Gate guard camp in the southeast of the city, took a group of men to meet more than ten meters, and fought with Lin Chong at the head of the city.
Li Tiande had a flattering look on his face, walked a few steps forward quickly, his face seemed to have a few flowers, and he said brilliantly: "I said that the magpie was cheerful this morning, it turned out that General Fu returned from an expedition, and the small one was Li Tiande, the captain of the city gate, the adult had worked hard all the way, and the small one prepared some drinks in the city gate, and I hope the general can appreciate his face."
Li Tiande said it beautifully, but on his forehead, there were beads of sweat falling off, and he said a lot of words, wiped the sweat with his sleeve three times, and was nervous, when Lin Chong handed over this task to him, but he said it clearly, the other party didn't know about the loss of Xiangyang, but it was possible to know, but no matter what the situation, going out of the city was a big risk, and if it didn't work, he would die.
As usual, Li Tiande is not afraid of death, but now he is not alone, although Chen Xiangyue was occupied by him before, but he was shaving his head and picking his head, but now Chen Xiangyue is showing a hint of willingness to marry him, Li Tiande doesn't want to die, but he also knows that he has no big evil, a lot of small evil, and if he doesn't make up for his mistakes, he can't feel at ease, so he hesitated for a moment and took it.
Li Tiande looked at Fu Yu's face from time to time, for fear that his ghost mind would be seen through by the other party, but Fu Yu just glanced at Li Tiande, and didn't pay much attention to it at all.
Especially for the Xiangyang King Situ Nalan to get a few yamen, the city government soldiers, the city guards of the Wu Ya, and the city defense guards guarding the Sijiu City, these are especially eye-catching, this group of guys in addition to copying people's homes, bullying good women, looting and plundering is a good hand, fighting is a scum, from top to bottom, there is no one with bones, Fu Yu can look down on them.
But stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, although Fu Yu doesn't look down on this group of guys, he doesn't say anything cold, of course, don't expect any good face: "There is Captain Lao Li, there is nothing to do in the city these days."
Fu Yu didn't doubt it at all, but pulled the horse and walked forward slowly, which made Li Tiande's original set of words to deal with the other party's inquiries useless, after all, he had guarded other doors before, and the four main gates were guarded by special guards, but he didn't expect Fu Yu to not even ask.
"Back to the general, there are a few things that are not big or small in the city, in the first half of the month, the recruits outside the city could not be trained, and they bombed the camp, making a fuss for most of the night, alarming the prince, but killing a lot of people......" Li Tiande said some things one by one, but Fu Yu on the horse heard two things, and waved his horsewhip.
"Why didn't you hear the sound of training in the East Battalion?"
"The soldiers and horses were pulled to the north of the city to run, saying that they wanted to train their physical fitness, and they wanted to run from the north gate to the ferry, and they were running back, only when they ran to the ground, they were allowed to eat and drink, and it was estimated that they would have to go down the mountain when they ran back."
Fu Yu sighed, he didn't ask much about Li Tiande's answer, the recruits had to practice hard, otherwise they wouldn't be able to become a climate in three months, while talking, Fu Yu had already ridden into the city gate, Li Tiande walked a few steps, took a jar of wine from the door, tore open the mud seal, handed it over, and said: "General, this is dug out of the cellar of a restaurant, and it is all good wine that has been hidden for more than 30 years, do you want to taste it?"
Fu Yu smelled it, it was indeed good, but there was some bloody smell in the smell of wine: "This smell doesn't seem right, the smell of blood is so strong?"
When Li Tiande heard this, the beads of sweat on his forehead fluttered, but fortunately, Li Tiande was a little witty, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "The day before yesterday, I killed dozens of people who wanted to assassinate the king of Xiangyang in the urn city, and the original Lord Feng of Dongcheng was also involved, otherwise the small ones could not be transferred here from the southeast gate."
Fu Yu sighed, picked up the wine jar handed over by Li Tiande, and took a few sips: "The wine is good."
Li Tiande hurriedly said: "Go back and send two cars to the general, the general, the small duty is, you can't leave your post without permission, so you won't send the general inside."
Fu Yu raised his whip, this guy is really capable of drilling camps, and he can't leave his post without permission, I'm afraid it's just to have a good impression of him, but he is a delicate guy, no wonder he can mix well.
Whew, watching Fu Yu ride a horse into the urn city, Li Tiande let out a long breath, glanced at his subordinates, and went up the stone steps on the side to the city.
On the city wall, there seems to be no one, but against the battlements of the city wall, it is full of people, Li Tiande went up to the city gate tower, and said to Sun Wu and Han Baohu, who were guarding the east gate of the city: "Two adults, humble and fortunate not to be dishonored, finally completed the task"
Han Baohu looked at Li Tiande and said with a smile: "It's really good, no wonder Lin Chong's leopard head came to ask you for it, you should take a great credit for this matter, and your reward is indispensable when you turn around, it's up to us below."
"Close the door" urn at the inner gate of the city, Wang Zhu looked at the cavalry more than 20 meters away, and shouted loudly at the stupid big man beside him, Wang Hou shouted loudly, who is Wang Hou, that is a guy who is holding a thousand-year-old ironwood coffin as a stick, and his arms can have the strength of a thousand catties, not to mention that behind this gate, in addition to Wang Hou, there are several powerful monsters.
Before Fu Yu could come back to his senses, the two doors weighing thousands of pounds had already creaked, closed tightly, and the crossbar was on the inside, and the broken dragon stone fell, which blocked the inner door of the urn city, even if the Heavenly Spirit Master struck with all his strength, it was impossible to break it directly.
The inner door closed, and the outer door began to close slowly almost at the same time, and these two 10,000-pound giant doors were opened and closed by the turntable mechanism, but they could not be pushed by manpower.
And this city gate hole is more than such a city gate, from the top of the head, the iron fence forged as a whole with a steel pillar as thick as a table tennis ball falls directly, the bottom of the iron fence is as sharp as the tip of a spear, there are four lines, one in front of the door, three behind the door, these four iron gates fell, on the spot will be more than a dozen horses to wear the sugar gourd, although it is not completely closed, but also formed an interception, so that the city gate rumbling closing.
At this moment, there are not many soldiers and horses pouring into the inner city, not even eight hundred, but they encircle the other party's generals in it, and this closing the door and beating the dog is only the first step, the two gates are closed, and several arrows suddenly shoot out above the city.
Bang bang, three sounds of arrows, the soldiers who were ambushed in the city suddenly jumped up, on the city, the magic bow and crossbow that can be used, the bed crossbow, and the flying crossbow, the bow and arrow suddenly rained down, but there is really not too much ordnance in Xiangyang City, several ordnance warehouses have long been empty, and even the rolling wood and stone on the city have been demolished a lot of houses to put together.
Those recruits who were surrendered were given an order to throw down the wood and stones around them, as long as they were lost, even if the task was completed, suddenly, in addition to the rain of arrows, even the rolling wood and stones were also falling on their heads and faces.
This sudden outburst stunned the cavalry who entered the city on the spot, and before they came back to their senses, they were already facing countless crossbow arrows, stones, and wood, and the screams continued to sound for a while, Fu Yu was surrounded by elite demon guards, with black scale snakes as armor, ordinary arrows could not break their defenses at all, but they could not stand the snake at close range between the magic bow and crossbow and the thick crossbow arrows of the bed crossbow
Suddenly, in the urn city, a piece of flesh and blood flew, the black-scaled snake was indeed not weak in defense, but at this moment they were also strung with sugar gourds, but this injury was not enough to kill them, but the body was nailed to the ground, but it made them unable to move.
When the three arrows sounded, in the side gate to the south of the east gate, Ma Chao, Wei Qing, and Huo Quai's 1,000 elite cavalry were killed from inside the gate and rushed straight to the east gate.
At this moment, the three arrows sounded but they were the signal of the planned action, and the three of them led nearly a thousand cavalry to rush out of the city, killing only the eastern city.
In the urn city, Fu Yu's eyes were full of anger, he was cautious all the way, and inquired in many ways, but he didn't expect that he still fell into the other party's way, and the other party actually used the Xiangyang City defense to ambush them, that is to say, the other party took Xiangyang City, this news made Fu Yu inhale cold air in his heart.
Although there are not many soldiers and horses left in Xiangyang City, but counting Xinding, 30,000 is still made up, and they still leave no less than 3,000 soldiers and horses here to guard the inner city, and although there are no useful soldiers and horses under the command of King Xiangyang, they have recruited many strong people, especially the three old eunuchs around Situ Nalan, who are strong, if it is not for the fear of these three old guys, Situ Nalan is afraid that he will be a sheep's head, and no one will treat him as a dish at all.
How strong is the strength of the other party to take Xiangyang City, Fu Yu thought in his heart, a magic crossbow that shot out was already shooting in front of him.
At a distance of dozens of meters, there was almost no blink of an eye, Fu Yu couldn't react at all, the magic crossbow arrow had already been shot on his body, and the armor outside his body was shot through at that time, but the arrow did not penetrate Fu Yu's body, Fu Yu lowered his head and pulled out the thumb-thick crossbow arrow, looked around, and kept wailing his subordinates, and roared angrily on the spot.
The armor on his body suddenly shattered, and a black-scaled snake with only the thickness of a chain coiled around Fu Yu's body like armor, and with Fu Yu's anger, the slender black-scaled snake suddenly loosened its snake body and surrounded Fu Yu's body, which seemed to be three zhang, no, five zhang...... Ten zhang, or even longer
