Chapter 52 The situation is critical
The wild vines have feelings and war bones, and the remnant sun does not mean to shine on the empty city.
"When", Dugu Xiaotian stuck the Pingtian Sword on the ground, and a small part of the wound on his chest cracked, and there were bursts of pain. He breathed vigorously, sweat running down his cheeks and dripping onto the dust.
What war leaves behind is blood, loneliness, a ruined homeland, and a pain that can never be repaired.
This is the first time Dugu Xiaotian has participated in a large-scale war, but he doesn't want to participate in any war in the future.
The corpses of Datong City are all over the field, and the corpses of Mongolians and Han people are also lying on the head of the city, and it is too late to clean up.
"Xiaotian, how are your injuries?" Song Shuling's face turned pale, and after a fierce battle, she was also greatly impacted. She came over with a few Wudang disciples, who were also covered in blood, and the two disciples were slightly injured.
"It's just that the wound is a little cracked, and it's not in the way." Dugu Xiaotian stood up and replied with a smile.
The siege battle just now lasted for more than two hours, and the Ming army was able to repel the first wave of the Mongol army's attack thanks to the new artillery delivered in the last ten days.
The new artillery is the Hongyi cannon that the imperial court just bought from the Great Food Country last year, and it has a long range and fast reloading. There were only 30 guns in the whole of Kyoto, and this time in order to stabilize Datong, 15 new artillery pieces were temporarily mobilized.
The Mongol trebuchets were also improved, but they were much slower to load and fire stones than artillery. The Mongol trebuchet fired only three rounds of boulders, and most of them were destroyed by artillery.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Tomu hurriedly transferred the remaining eight or nine trebuchets to the rear army.
The Mongol army adjusted its siege formation, and more than a dozen cloud chariots quickly rushed forward, and then stopped at 200 steps from the city gate. The elite Mongolian archers on the car bent their bows and arrows to shoot at the positions of the Ming army defending the city, and Zhou Yunhu hurriedly withdrew the artillery to avoid being wounded.
1,000 Mongolian men, carrying stone bags, threw them in the moat of the northern city under the cover of the archers on the cloud cart. When the water in the moat could not reach the knees, a large group of Mongolian soldiers set up ladders and killed the city.
The martial arts heroes had been waiting for a long time, and a group of Mongolian warriors who could not be stopped by arrows had just climbed to the top of the city, and they were besieged and killed by the martial arts heroes.
At this critical moment, the martial arts heroes didn't care about any martial arts rules, as long as they saw new Mongolian soldiers on the city, they would rush up and split their bodies with random blades.
After a stick of incense, just as the people on the city wall were exhausted, a team of 200 men suddenly rushed out of the Mongolian army, most of whom held rattan cards in their left hands and sabers in their right hands. They were so skilled in their martial arts that they leaped into the city through the gaps in the walls of the city that had been punched out by a few catapults, and when they came up, they were going to destroy the artillery erected on the walls.
As soon as dozens of Ming troops guarding Paitai came into contact with these Mongolian attacking regiments, they suffered heavy casualties. Seeing that the situation was not good, Dugu Xiaotian shouted, and took more than 100 sect disciples on the city wall to meet the Mongolian master attack group and fight.
The martial arts masters of the Central Plains attacked the attacking regiment, and the garrison on the city wall immediately emptied. The Mongol army took advantage of the opportunity to climb the city wall with more and more troops, and the situation was extremely critical.
"Brother is panicking, come for brother!" A big man in the shape of a biao, holding a long stick, rushed over with more than 100 beggar gang masters, and it was Qiao Wanyun who came to help.
"Amitabha, the leader of the alliance is panicking, and we are here too." Master Wuming took dozens of Shaolin Temple masters and also rushed to the north gate city wall.
Song Shuling saw Shaolin and the beggar gang coming to help, and she was overjoyed. She waved the real martial arts sword in her hand and shouted: "Fellow martial artists, kill the enemy and serve the country, at this moment!" She led her Wudang disciples to kill the Mongol warriors who climbed the city wall one by one.
When this city broke through the critical moment, Dugu Xiaotian's sword was no longer merciful, and his Pingtian sword carried a big wave sword style, even slashing with thorns, invincible, and invincible. Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader of the Mongolian army master regiment hurriedly divided seven masters to besiege Dugu Xiaotian together.
Dugu Xiaotian took a deep breath, and with a "big avalanche" sword style, he shook back seven people. Then he raised his sword and fell, unfolded the Qingfeng Sword Style, and stabbed several people down one after another.
"'Four King Kongs', this person is powerful, form a formation to deal with him!" A middle-aged Hu man at the head shouted.
Four monks jumped out of the crowd, dressed as lamas, who were the four famous vajra protectors of the Tibetan Esoteric Red Sect. The four of them spread their hands, and the eight-sided four-foot-long bowl swirled and flew, like an eight-sided shield, trapping Dugu Xiaotian in the middle.
The four King Kongs cooperate seamlessly with each other, "Dangdang!" Dugu Xiaotian's Pingtian Sword slashed at the big bowl, bursting out bursts of sparks, and he couldn't repel these four lamas for a while.
"Ahh "Ahh ”…… There were bursts of screams among the people who fought each other, this was a battle of life and death, and the two sides were ruthless. In a moment, more than two dozen martial arts heroes had fallen in a pool of blood.
Dugu Xiaotian bit his teeth, and suddenly jumped into the air, and the four great King Kongs only said that he wanted to use a powerful sword to break the formation, and hurriedly closed the eight big shields and raised them above his head.
"Going", Dugu Xiaotian's left hand shook again and again, but he threw the flying locust stone on his body. The method of flying locust stone secret weapon, he practiced all the way to Datong, and he was already quite skilled at this time.
The Four Great King Kongs didn't expect Dugu Xiaotian to use a hidden weapon at this time, and he was defenseless in a hurry, and he was hit by stones in his legs and feet.
Although the flying locust stone is not big, Dugu Xiaotian's strength is amazing, and the four King Kongs were hit, and his leg was broken and fractured immediately.
"Drizzle Sword Style", Dugu Xiaotian shouted, and the Pingtian Sword waved again and again, rushing past the four lamas who were about to fall. The two lamas covered their chest wounds and fell to the ground. The other two lamas were swept by the long sword in their throats, and without saying a word, they slowly sat down on the ground.
Dugu Xiaotian rushed into the crowd of enemy masters, like a mad tiger, the long sword was like a breeze and drizzle, and the scythe of death quickly cut down seven or eight foreign masters.
The Central Plains martial arts heroes were infected by Dugu Xiaotian's martial arts, and everyone moved forward bravely, and with a cup of tea, nearly half of the 200 master groups were wiped out.
"Retreat!" The Hu Dahan led by him shouted loudly, and the remaining more than 100 foreign masters formed a formation and retreated while fighting.
"May I ask who killed the four Vajra Dharma kings? In my lifetime, the Desert Flying Eagle Tuoba Lie, I will take revenge! Hu Dahan led the team to withdraw from the gap in the city wall and said loudly.
Dugu Xiaotian was about to answer, and Song Shuling shouted: "Above the five divine powers, the world is a laughing man." Tuoba Lie remembered! ”
The martial arts heroes responded loudly: "The laughing man of the world, unparalleled in the world!" Mongolian Tartars, hurry back to the steppe! Then he burst into laughter, and the sound shook all over the world.
Tuoba Lie glanced at Dugu Xiaotian deeply, "King Dari, you will definitely come to take your head, and avenge the four King Kong kings!" ”
Song Shuling chuckled, "The Desert Flying Eagle is lonely and unheard, Wujicuo has been swept down Wudang Mountain by the sword of the 'Laughing Man', and now his injuries have not healed!" ”
The foreign masters were shocked when they heard this, and their momentum suddenly fell. Tuoba Lie gritted his teeth, "Let's withdraw!" He led more than 100 masters to retreat into the Mongolian Chinese army and disappeared.
"Woo", there was a long horn sound in the Mongolian army, and the Mongolian elite soldiers who were besieging the city withdrew from the cloud ladder and retreated behind the cloud chariot. The archers on the cloud chariot shot their feet, and the cloud chariot slowly retreated into the army.
The group of heroes saw that the Mongolian elite soldiers had retreated, "Laughing man! "Laughing Man"! They brandished their weapons and cheered.
Song Shuling wiped a handful of blood from her face, wiped away her tears, stared at Dugu Xiaotian, and laughed happily.
