Chapter 259: Double Battle

"No!" Guo Gang seemed to be going crazy this time. Changing his previous silence and low-key, he pulled out the sword at his waist and rested it on his neck, and said in a deep voice: "If Lord Wu doesn't fulfill me, how can I live like an ant in the world?" As a general, but only in the harem to protect the old and young women and Confucianism, how is it different from eunuchs? Today, Lord Wu is either dependent on me...... Or, just lift my head and go into battle!" After speaking, as soon as he pulled his hand, a bloody mark appeared on his neck.

Wu Yuanheng was shocked: "Stop!"

"If you don't agree, I won't stop!"

"Stop, stop...... I will depend on you!" Wu Yuanheng looked up to the sky and sighed, his hand trembled a little and he took out a gold medal from his arms, and said, "Take it, Shence Guard Talisman." The 6,000 steps of the Zhongnan Mountains are handed over to you. Remember one thing. Your duty is to stop the enemy in front of the capital. If it can be delayed for a moment, it is a moment. If you can't hold it out, you will retreat to the capital. ”

Guo Gang stood up. Solemnly took the talisman with both hands over the top. He said loudly: "The last general--get the order!"

Wu Yuanheng's expression was grim: "Take care, don't be brutal!"

A relieved smile appeared on Guo Gang's face. looked at Wu Yuanheng gratefully, and said, "Thank youβ€”the last general has gone." Lord Wu, please take care too!"

Guo Gang walked very quickly and quickly, like a whirlwind. Wu Yuanheng looked at his back and sighed to himself: Jingxing Daqi, there are so many people with lofty ideals! Even if he is defeated today, why will he not be able to win in the future?!

At this time, Jiumen, the national capital, was already in chaos. The flow of cars and horses huddled together, screaming in panic. The soldiers defending the city tried to evacuate the crowd, but with little success. It seems that it is not so easy to close the gates of the national capital. The golden bell on the head of the city is striking loudly, and it is soul-stirring. The people who had finally squeezed into the city patted their chests and shouted for good luck, and then they staggered and staggered by the crowd of people behind.

Ma Sui stood at the head of the city, with a grim face. There are too many people in the national capital. Every day, tens of thousands of merchants travel from the nine gates. At this moment, I don't know how many people are rushing to the capital. They may not know that the capital is about to become a battlefield. A battlefield of blood and fire that devours people without blinking.

Time passed minute by minute, and Ma Sui's heart became tighter and tighter. Seeing that the crowd in the national capital Jiumen had not decreased at all, his heart was like a fire. is also the people of Great Qi, no matter who is turned away, it is a kind of cruelty. Once the Tibetans are killed, these people who are blocked from the door are likely to die. Even if you are lucky enough to escape death, the feeling of being separated from your family in danger is extremely uncomfortable.

Ma Sui glanced back at the copper kettle dripping, a moment had passed, and it was almost the end of the hour.

"Send more people and close the door immediately. Ma Sui's expression became very cold, and he said in a deep voice, "You can evacuate." Evacuate as much as possible. When the unitary time comes, the door will be closed on time, and no one shall stop it for any reason. Violators will be severely punished!"

Several heralds' hearts trembled. Qi Qi clasped his fists and said, "Yes!" and ran away quickly.

There were bursts of wails from the nine gates of the national capital, and the crowd became even more turbulent. Many people crowded into the door as if they were desperate, ignoring the angry shouts and swords of the soldiers.

Disorderly!

The national capital, it's been a long time since it's been like this!

Ma Sui let out a long sigh and said leisurely: If it is a war, someone must sacrifice, and the overall situation is the same, whether it is a soldier or a common people......

There was a heavy smack. The nine gates of the national capital were closed heavily. The gatekeepers were so tired that they almost collapsed, and they all wanted to sit on the ground. At this time, many people rushed towards them in a surging manner, and they were angry and wanted to tear and scuffle. The soldiers swallowed their anger, couldn't fight back, scolded or didn't return their mouths, and let them toss. Several people had their faces scratched, and some even received fists. He was pinned to the ground.

Sometimes, impulsive people are so ignorant. They do not understand the reasons for the army to do this. All they know is that they still have relatives or goods left outside the city.

A group of cavalry rushed out of the Suzaku Gate. Wu Yuanheng walked in front of the white clothes and came to the front of Mingde, the main gate of the national capital.

He appeared. Attracted a lot of people. The riots also subsided slightly. The people looked at Wu Yuanheng and whispered, and they guessed with each other.

Wu Yuanheng's expression was very calm, he bowed to the crowd and said, "Folks, under Wu Yuanheng, the prime minister of Daqi." The gates of the city were ordered to be closed. ”

The crowd let out an angry uproar, and several impulsive people rushed up to ask Wu Yuan Hengxing for their guilt. The soldiers of the Dutch armor with guns in the Jinwu guard took a step forward in unison, and the swords and guns rang out. These people come to a standstill.

Wu Yuanheng was not flustered, and said calmly: "I know." You need a reasonable explanation, and I'm here for that. You may not know that the soldiers and horses of the Tubo people. Just a stone's throw away from the national capital. If you don't close the gates at this time. I believe that everyone can understand how the consequences are. ”

There was an even louder uproar from the crowd, and everyone was stunned.

"So. Don't get stuck here anymore. Wu Yuanheng sighed and said, "What you stay outside the city are relatives or goods. If it's a person, there are still legs to escape, and if it's a cargo, you can earn it back if you lose it. However, the soldiers who were beaten by you used their lives to defend the imperial capital, your lives and property. So, please don't embarrass them anymore. If there is any resentment, they should all come to Wu Yuanheng! However, please also come to Wu Yuanheng to settle accounts after the rebellion. Because right now, I also have very important things to do. In the next word, we must do it. If someone has a grudge against him and wants to seek revenge on Wu, Wu will never retreat. ”

The crowd was in a commotion again, and many bowed their heads in shame. Some people who knew or understood Wu Yuanheng said loudly: "Master Wu, we believe in you. Let's stop making a fuss, let's disperse!" they took the lead, and the crowd began to disperse. There were also some people who were crowded at the city gate, and spontaneously helped the defenders of the city who fell to the ground, and a few of them were still bending down to apologize.

Wu Yuanheng let out a long breath, waved his hand on the horse and said, "It's all gone, go home!"

The crowd dispersed. The most stubborn and fiery ones also stomped their feet a few times and followed the others. The soldiers stood at the head of the city again and set up sentry posts, and many wooden artillery and stone defense equipment were being transported in a steady stream.

Wu Yuanheng patted the horse and came to Chunming Gate, and went to the city to find Ma Sui. Ma Sui split his head and said: "Wu Bocang, you let that kid Guo Gang lead the troops to defend against the enemy? There is no one in the country, and there is still an old man! What do you mean by this?"

Wu Yuanheng waved his hand again and again to signal Ma Sui to calm down, and said, "Don't blame the handsome. It was Guo Gang who forced him to die, and he had to go to the ground. Wu Chongyin set up the first line of defense in Weishui, and Guo Gang set up the second line outside the national capital. I don't know how many soldiers and horses the Tubo people have, but if we resist for a moment, we will have one more chance. I have sent fast horses to Dongdu and Hedong to ask for help from Lu Sigong and others. But time is of the essence to us. I believe that His Majesty, the emperor on the front line, will also make relevant responses. Now, we must try our best to keep the enemy out of the field and gain time. Once the soldiers come to the city, the people will be panicked and the emperor will be unstable, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Ma Sui sighed heavily: "Wu Bocang, you also know who Guo Gang is. He is now the son-in-law of the first wealthy family in the national capital. Even His Majesty the Emperor didn't dare to put him in danger, but you ...... Well, I know you must have a last resort. ”

"Don't talk about that. Wu Yuanheng said, "Ma Shuai, how many soldiers are there in your hands now?"

Ma Sui raised three fingers, and then snorted heavily: "I, a great general, have never had such a situation in my hands - there are less than 10,000 people!"

"Three thousand people...... Wu Yuanheng tightened his brows with a grim expression, and then said with a light in his heart: "What about Yin Shen and Quhuan's people?"

"Those two old ghosts!" Ma Sui took a heavy sip and said, "If you don't leave sooner or later, you just left the national capital at this time and went to Jiangnan and Hebei to personally supervise the formation of Long Xiangwei." The few Long Xiangwei in the Guannai were scattered in various states and counties, and it would take at least three days to assemble them. But now that the Tubo people are coming to the city, where is the time?"

Wu Yuanheng's expression became even more solemn, he was silent for a moment, and said: "In this way, it is not that there are no rescuers, but it will take time to arrive." What we have to do now is to do everything we can to buy time. Ma Shuai, the nine gates of the national capital will be handed over to you. Go down and invite the Guo family, the Wu family, and some other people from the Shi family. Ask them to come out and send men to guard the city gates!"

"Oh, that's a way!" Ma Sui said thoughtfully, "Guo, Wu's second family, and some other gate lords, many of them are princes who have opened the mansion, some have private soldiers, and some have groups of miscellaneous servants in their families. Although these people don't have much combat power, they can at least withstand it for a while. ”

"Well, I'll go right away!" Wu Yuanheng bowed goodbye and strode away.

Ma Sui shouted anxiously from behind: "Go quickly and return quickly - if necessary, ask the imperial concubine to help!"

The ink coat faced the bronze mirror, coiled his hair high and pressed it tightly, then put on a fiery red helmet, and said to the mirror, "Let's go, girl." Go to the Ganlu Hall and the Anren Palace, and call the noble concubine and the virtuous concubine. ”

Wu Qiyun, who was behind her, had a somewhat unpleasant face and nodded: "Hmm...... Go ahead. ”

"What's wrong, cowardly?" Mo Yi turned around and smiled at Wu Qiyun, "The Wu Qiyun I know is not like this. When I was in Xichuan, you and I led the army to defeat tens of thousands of Tibetans, when did you ever have the slightest cowardice? Now that you have been in the palace for two years as an imperial concubine, do you even have little courage?"

"No...... Sister, stop making fun of me. Wu Qiyun smiled awkwardly: "I, I'm worried about Your Majesty." The soldiers and horses of the Tubo people have all been killed in the capital, and I don't know what will happen to Your Majesty in front of you?"

Mo Yi frowned: "You are still careful...... Say no more. The top priority is to first relieve the siege of the national capital. Let's go. Call the two concubines of Shanggui and Xian, and go to see the emperor together. Then please ask the emperor for the will and ask for the help of the noble and virtuous concubines, and we can mobilize the power of the Shi clan in the capital city to defend the city together. Especially--the Guo family!"

Wu Qiyun's face was overjoyed: "My sister is really smart, this plan is very good-let's go quickly!"

Moyi reached out and picked up the grimace mask and strode out. As he walked, he said, "I'm not that smart. This strategy was told to me by Lu Zhen. He said, "Your precious brother came up with it." You martial brothers and sisters, you really have a heart!"

Soon after, in the Hanyuan Hall of Taiming Palace.

The old man Chu Yan trembled, almost slipped off the dragon chair, and said in shock: "Tu, Tubo people are here, and they are outside the national capital?"

Moyi bowed like a military general: "Back to Your Majesty, exactly." ”

The old man blinked and looked at the four daughters-in-law standing in front of him, and asked in surprise, "What about ...... What are you doing here? Especially Concubine De, if you put on a military uniform, do you have to go into battle too?"

"If necessary, don't hesitate. Mo Yi said succinctly. "Your Majesty, Erchen and others came here to ask for a decree. Please ask your father to issue an order to let the people of the national capital and the Shi clan help defend the city. ”

"Oh, oh......" the old man snapped in surprise. kept nodding, "The national capital is empty, and that's the only way...... However, the clans may do what they are told, but the people may not be able to mobilize. Especially those who are homeless in the market, it is good not to take the opportunity to make trouble. ”

Mo Yi sneered, and said painlessly: "Your Majesty can rest assured." The people of the national capital of Jingxing Daqi would never do such a thing. As long as someone climbs the height, raises their arms and shouts. The people of the capital will definitely die to help defend the city. ”

The old man's face trembled slightly, and he said, "That's ...... Anyway, I can't come to the land by climbing the heights. Nominate yourselves. Now in the capital of the country, the emperor is not there, the prince is still young, and you four concubines are the most influential in the royal family. See for yourselves. I will give you the Divine Decree...... I. There's only so much left to do. After that, the old man immediately picked up a pen and wrote a holy decree, then picked up the jade seal and stamped it, and asked Ju Wenzhen to hand it over to Moyi.

"Thank you, Father. The sons and daughters are waiting to retire!" Mo Yi led the rest of the three concubines. Walked out of the Hanyuan Hall quickly.

The old man was shocked and ashamed, and muttered indignantly: "A strong woman is stronger than a man...... I, it's your father-in-law, so sneering, hum! If you can do it, let you do it, I will stay in this Daming Palace and not go out. Anyway, this scene is prosperous, and it's not mine!"

The spring rain does not stop, and the water flow of Weishui has become turbulent.

The ground shook and the mud flew, and a cavalry of more than 100 people rushed to the horse. Stop at a place where you can vaguely see the capital.

Immediately, an extremely tall and open-chested giant man pointed ahead with a horsewhip and said loudly: "Generals, we can already see the national capital!"

Others let out a cheer of excitement. Like a wolf. An adjutant clapped his horse forward. said: "On the general, since the national capital is already close at hand. Why don't our troops hurry up? The general has to come and explore the road himself?"

The talk about the general in the mouth of the adjutant general is exactly about the hot cheeks!

He smiled coldly and said, "You don't know. Conquering the national capital is my dream of the clan for many years. When the day came, I couldn't calm down. I want to see with my own eyes what the legendary first city in the world looks like in terms of wealth and luxury. When my 30,000 horsemen are gone, I will never see such a sight again. It's a pity that today is a rainy day, and the gray is not clear. But in terms of silhouette, it's really majestic and huge. On the plateau, I'm afraid there will never be a city like this!"

Another lieutenant general shouted triumphantly: "General, let's turn the national capital into the capital of Tibet!

"Well said, hahaha!" Cheeks laughed wildly, and then waved his whip, "Scout, hurry back and give orders." The army sped up its march and approached the national capital within half an hour! Whoever is the first to enter the national capital, I will reward him with the first mansion and a beautiful woman in the national capital! Of course, except for the woman named Dugu Moyi and the palace, which belong to Zampu!"

"Yes!" a dozen fast horses rushed back.

A few miles away from the others, the 30,000 iron horsemen of the Tubo people were ready to go, and they had already set up their formation. The Weishui River has been left behind by them, and they are facing the red capital city in front of them.

On the hot cheeks, he was a little complacent, and suddenly his eyes opened wide, and he looked ahead in surprise.

There, something was coming like a tidal wave. A moment later, the earth-shattering shouts of killing and the sudden sound of horses' hooves almost shook the Weishui River to a boil.

"It's the Qi army!" "It seems that our army has been exposed, and they have already prepared for it-that's it! Just let me see what else the empty national capital can come up with to block the edge of my 30,000 elite iron horsemen!"

On the hot cheeks raised his hand: "Withdraw, join the army!" More than 100 people whistled and rode their horses back and galloped.

Wu Chongyin was lying on the back of the horse with a large knife in his hand, staring ahead with a gloomy face. At the corner of the col, I faintly saw a group of people retreating in a hurry. With his instincts for many years, Wu Chongyin knew that it should be the enemy's outpost scout.

Since Tanma has arrived here, most of the soldiers and horses should not be far away.

Wu Chongyin stopped his horse. Brandished the big knife and shouted: "Stop-set up!"

The 12,000 Yulin Guard Iron Cavalry quickly assembled and changed formations, forming a four-sided rushing killing array. This formation, with its strong assault power, will pierce into the enemy's hinterland like an arrow. And then recklessly just rush to kill, even if you fall into the encirclement, you will not flinch in the slightest - Wu Chongyin, completely using the land is a way to break the net!

Wu Chongyin immediately stood at the front of the corner with a horizontal sword, and a fiery red flag fluttered in the wind beside him. He glanced back at the somewhat hazy national capital, and said loudly: "Yulin Guard, the time has come to repay the emperor's favor and save the imperial capital!

"Don't be afraid!-" A roar of rolling thunder rolled in layers and shocked the earth.

An adjutant general behind Wu Chongyin whispered: "General, your memory is not too good. ”

Wu Chongyin was slightly surprised: "How do you say this?"

The lieutenant general said softly with a calm expression: "The last general, Wang Zhennan." It was one of the thirteen iron-blooded people of the Han Dynasty back then. More than half of the brothers in Yulinwei were also the predecessors of the Flying Dragon Rider. Let me ask, will the Iron Blood Thirteen and the Flying Dragon Rider have anything to do with the fear of death?"

Wu Chongyin took a long breath and nodded heavily: "You're right-you don't need to talk nonsense about Ben General!

Wang Zhennan and several other lieutenant generals gritted their teeth and roared: "Kill it!"

All the soldiers shouted in unison: "Kill!"

The Tibetan cavalry was as wild as a pack of wolves. The bulge of the horizon ahead. Rows of cavalry roared like rushing waves. They raised their scimitars in their hands, whistled in their mouths, and all of them looked like red-eyed fanatics. Rush towards the capital city full of gold and silver beauties.

Wu Chongyin tore his robe far behind him, and then said loudly: "Brothers, slaughter their wolf cubs, rush me!"

"Rush!" The blood of the knights of the Feather Forest Guard instantly boiled, and they rushed towards them with angry shouts.

On a high slope in the distance, there was a slight look of surprise on his cheeks: "Oh, the four-sided rush killing array? Who is General Tang, who actually used this kind of deadly fighting, which really caught Ben Jiang a little unexpected." Originally, I thought that the Tang people who were used to being a turtle would definitely take out a Fangyuan defensive formation composed of Mo knives and shields. I didn't expect to fight with me as soon as I came up. ”

The adjutant general next to him said: "General, according to your orders, the only two remaining military rations have been sent to the soldiers to make a meal." Now our army has run out of food and grass. It has also reached a situation where there is no way back. Unless victorious. Otherwise......"

"No, otherwise!" said with a frown. "I still learned this trick from the Han people, this is called a battle against the water, don't you see, although our soldiers have traveled thousands of miles, but they are more brave than ever before? That's because they also know that there is no other way out than to take the national capital!" In fact, there is not a word about cheek fever. He knew that he had already made a disturbance along the way, and maybe the Great Qi Emperor in front of him already knew the news. When the time comes, his soldiers and horses will come back, and he will have no way to retreat. The only way out is in the national capital. If you take the city, half of Daqi will die. When the time comes, the reckless army will chase after the army of the Great Qi Emperor, and it will be a foregone conclusion!

"A perfect plan!" said a smile on his cheeks, full of pride.

In the midst of the battle, the Tubo people did show their belief in death, and they were fighting desperately. Wu Chongyin is a good general specially transferred from Hebei by Xiao Yunhe, and the Yu Linwei he commanded was also born as a flying dragon rider, and his combat effectiveness is not bad. However, compared with the Tubo people, who fought on their backs and had the advantage in numbers, they still lost a lot in terms of strength. As soon as the two groups of people clashed, Wu Chongyin's heart was like a big rock in the town - what a fierce army!

The individual combat ability of the Tubo people is already good, and this surprise attack team is the elite of the elite and is now full of fighting spirit, which makes Wu Chongyin feel an extremely strong pressure. As soon as the four-edged killing array came over, Wu Chongyin felt that he had been tied to an iron plate. Although the other party was damaged, his own casualties were greater!

The Tubo cavalry, which was three times larger than himself, was like a monster, and in the face of the oncoming prismatic flying knife, he did not retreat, but opened his mouth and swallowed it!

Now, the Tubo people have drawn the battle situation to a great extent, forming an encirclement of Wu Chongyin's army from the outside to the inside, and taking turns to kill them.

Wu Chongyin in the formation also made quite a success in rushing left and right, but the sense of oppression in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he secretly said in his heart: Although the enemy army came to attack and fought an encounter with our army, the battle method formation is very sophisticated -- the enemy general is by no means an ordinary person! Now, the only thing I can do is to fight to the death to drag him and buy time for the national capital!

Thinking of this, Wu Chongyin roared angrily, and began to rampage with a biao iron horse behind him, trying to disrupt the enemy's formation. At this time, he didn't think about victory, he only thought about defeat later. Your own life and death are no longer important, but when you die is very important! If you live a few more moments, you will be able to win a glimmer of life for the national capital!

The soldiers of Yu Linwei also understood the essentials of this battle from Wu Chongyin. At this time, they are also entangled with each other as desperately as the main general. Don't break through, don't charge into battle, don't flee - it's entanglement, rush left and right, and try your best to prevent the enemy from rushing forward!

The cheeks on the hillside were sneering again: "It's really a dog jumping off the wall in a hurry." Seeing that no, the Qi army used a rogue-like style of play. I am not afraid of death and I don't care about the result, I only think about entangled with our army. The more they do this, the more they show that the capital is empty, and they are wasting time with our army -- if the order continues, the front army will only clash forward, and the rear army will surround this handful of Qi troops and kill them all!"

"Yes!" the Tibetan herald flew away. On the cheeks pouted and smiled: "I didn't expect that it was this kind of general Lai Pi who was guarding the national capital, I thought I could meet my opponent here, I was really disappointed!"

In the midst of the battle array, the Tubo people instantly changed formations. The rear army was like a pair of wings outflanking the middle, enveloping the army of Wu Chongyin in it. Then, the Tubo cavalry, which was originally rushing to the front, shook off the entanglement of Wu Chongyin and others, and Pegasus rushed forward.

At this time, Wu Chongyin was already covered in blood. Seeing a group of Tibetan cavalry slapping their horses and heading towards the national capital, he couldn't help but shout: "Brothers, don't let the Tubo people approach the national capital - kill them back!"

"Roar, roar!" The soldiers of Yu Linwei were also anxious, and broke through to the south regardless of a single qiΔ“. The Tubo people took advantage of the situation to chase and kill behind, and after a random attack, the Yulin guards died countless tragic deaths.

Wu Chongyin himself was also hit by two arrows, but fortunately he was not seriously injured. He gritted his teeth and reluctantly waved his army to retreat, chasing after the Tubo cavalry that had been killed by the country.

From a distance, there were about six or seven thousand Tubo people, who were frantically rushing towards the country. Wu Chongyin led the Qi army to chase and kill in the back. Behind them, there were more Tibetans chasing and killing.

Closer to the national capital, the Tubo people couldn't help but let out bursts of whistles and laughter.

At this moment, there was a loud roar and a neat roar ahead. The Tubo people who rushed to the front were stunned for a moment, only to find that on a dirt slope in front of them, there was a large neat shield cloth into a phalanx. Before they could react, two teams of archers strode forward behind the shields of the phalanx, one squatting and the other standing up, and a dense rain of arrows was released in the air. The Tubo people did not expect that many people fell to the ground with arrows, and even people and horses rolled and died very miserably.

Wu Chongyin rejoiced loudly in his heart, reined in his horse and turned over to fight the Tubo people who were chasing behind. Three groups of men chased after me, and another group of melee came together.

Guo Gang was wearing armor, and Chu Yan's body was full of blood. Seeing that the iron cavalry of the Tubo people was getting closer and closer, there was also a rain of arrows head-on. He commanded properly, and ordered the soldiers to erect large shields, which greatly reduced casualties. But at this time, the iron cavalry of the Tubo people had already rushed close!

"Withdraw the shield, Mo array!" Guo Gang roared loudly, and the drum order in the army was quickly issued. When the soldiers heard this, they immediately started to move. Pick up the Da Mo knife and rush up.

In an instant, the flesh and blood of men and horses flew and their limbs danced wildly, and screams rang out.

Guo Gang couldn't help but tremble in Chu Yan's body, holding an iron spear tightly and roaring angrily: "Cavalry." Charge and sweep with meβ€”kill!"

One of the few more than 1,000 light cavalry, under the leadership of Guo Gang, rushed towards the iron cavalry formation of the Tubo people!

Wu Chongyin also fought hard to kill the pursuing Tubo rear army, and they all desperately resisted regardless of death.

Four groups of men and horses were divided into two battlefields, and they fell into a stalemate for a while. There were countless casualties in the battle, and rivers of blood flowed.

On the cheek fever, he had already descended the high slope and rode into the battle. After hearing the military information reported by the former army scout, his expression changed, and he kept cursing: "The Han people really like to fight to the death! Obviously, it is a war that has no suspense. This style of play is very unfavorable to our army. The order was issued, and the Chinese army personally stepped forward with the general, bypassing those two battlefields, and bypassing one side to take the national capital!"

"Yes!" The banner of the Chinese army flipped instantly, and a large number of iron horsemen gathered behind the warm-up of the cheeks. He drew his knife with a strange glare, and roared thunderously: "Charge!"

Suddenly. This group of the most elite and well-bodied Chinese army iron cavalry rushed forward like a whirlwind. It's just that they didn't rush towards the battle formation of Wu Chongyin and Guo Gang, but took the edge of their swords. A big bend and a straight point to the national capital!

Above the city, Ma Sui looked at the northwest with a stern expression. It was cloudy and rainy, and I couldn't see far away, but I could hear the sound of shouts of killing. The people in the capital city have been shocked, and the people are dragging their children and daughters to flee in all directions, and the chaos is very noisy.

Wu Yuanheng ran up to the city panting and came to Ma Sui's side and asked, "How is the battle?"

"I can't see it, I can only hear it. There were no sentry horses to report back on the military. Ma Sui's expression was very silent, his eyes were staring at the northwest direction, and he said in a deep voice, "But the old man can judge." Sooner or later, the other party will have to kill in front of the national capital. ”

Wu Yuanheng raised his eyes and looked over there, and the gray patch was not real. But at this moment, the sound of rapid horses' hooves could be faintly heard. It rolled like thunder.

"It's coming!" the two said in unison. Ma Sui instantly pulled out the treasure sword. In his old male voice, Chu Yan shouted angrily: "Prepare to meet the enemy!"

The soldiers at the head of the city were like being enlightened, and all of them were nervous. Everyone in place the guys and was ready to fight. At this moment, there was a commotion from the city. Wu Yuanheng walked quickly to the women's wall to take a look, and at a glance, he saw the woman in red armor and red robe with a ghostly face - Dugu Imperial Princess!

She was standing in front of a group of people and said loudly, "Warriors! Follow me up to the head of the city and slay the Tibetan rebels! Today, there are only heroes with severed heads, and there are no horsemen who have run away. If you're afraid of death, go back now!"

Someone shouted loudly: "The princess is not afraid of her daughter, what is there to fear from us untouchables?

Wu Yuanheng in the city had a throbbing heart: She is really a woman with commanding power! Invisibly, she can give people a very powerful influence, and she can easily arouse morale!

"Okay, everyone come with me!" "The figure of the ink coat is as strong as a man, and he walks quickly towards the city. Behind her, there were three or four thousand miscellaneous soldiers dressed in strange clothes but holding weapons of the unified Qi army in their hands. These were the private soldiers, servants, and subordinates she had recruited from the palaces of the various princes. And some of the people joined in with great courage. On Suzaku Street, Wu Qiyun and several officials of the Ministry of War dragged more than 30 truckloads of weapons and armor from the armor warehouse with soldiers. Today, as long as you are willing to go into battle, you can take away weapons here.

In the capital city - all the people are soldiers!

With 10,000 iron horsemen of the Chinese army, he rushed to the capital of the country at a gallop. They came from the northwest for hundreds of years, and the direct face was the Chunming Gate.

Ma Sui was at the head of the city, looking at each other coldly.

On recklessness, he also looked up from afar. Above the head of the high earth, the figures of people swayed frequently like ants. In terms of cheek heat, he was not in a hurry, and ordered the soldiers to quickly combine the equipment they brought with them to make a ladder that could attack the city.

Moyi had already rushed to the city, and the first thing he did was to run to the side of the city to see the situation. Ma Sui and Wu Yuanheng hurriedly stopped her: "Concubine De stays!"

"What?!" Moyi was still a little angry.

"Please Concubine De go back to the city, there is an old man here. Ma Sui bowed and said urgently. "Swords and arrows have no eyes, don't hurt the phoenix body!"

"Chu Yan's words!" Mo Yi reprimanded loudly, "I am the dignified Flame General, and I am the one who is enshrined by the Holy Lord today! If you dare to discriminate against me, you are contempting the will of God!"

"Ahh......h

Wu Yuanheng's mind was very calm, he pondered for a moment, invited Mo Yi aside and said, "Concubine De Rongyu." You think of yourself as a general, but Ma Sui and the soldiers here can't. If you are here, it doesn't matter if you can kill the enemy or not. Even if you can kill the enemy, you don't need to be taken care of, but in the hearts of Ma Sui and the others. After all, it will be a huge burden. This will only make them distracted to pay attention to you, protect you, and not let go of their hands and feet to kill the enemy. This is obviously very unfavorable. Therefore, Weichen advised Niangniang to go back to the city to command the soldiers and horses, and dispatch the ministers and people to transport the equipment to defend the city and rescue the wounded. That might be more helpful. ”

Mo Yi thought about it in a daze, and sighed helplessly. said, "Okay. I also know that I am no longer the same ink coat I used to be. Everywhere I go now, everybody has to treat me differently. Wu Yuanheng, you are still calm and wise. I can't help much if I stay here. Maybe add to the chaos. I went to Suzaku Street to help Guifei and Yun'er recruit the common people and transport equipment to help the wounded. Don't stay in the city if you are a Confucian student. The more chaotic it is, the more the imperial capital can't lose its backbone. The Emperor Taishang definitely can't count on anything. A matter in the national capital city still needs to be assigned by you and Lu Zhen, the prime ministers. ”

"Weichen obeyed, and went down to the city with Concubine De. Wu Yuanheng breathed a sigh of relief: It is really not easy to persuade this woman!

"Siege!" With a roar of hot cheeks, the Tubo, who had fought on his back, rushed towards the capital of the country as if he were desperate. At the same time, countless bows and arrows, rolling logs, and hot oil beckoned them over their heads, and they fell in an instant. Ma Sui commanded Ruoding to give a loud order: "Release the rocket!" There was a sharp whizzing sound, and arrows with flames were overwhelming. It fell on the oil and burst into flames. Many Tibetans were on fire. Many of the ladders were also set up.

On the hot cheeks, his face twitched slightly, and he raised his hand ruthlessly: "Come on, rush me! As long as there is one person left." We must also rush to the head of the national capital!" and all of them are out of the way. All of them rushed forward without fear of death. One after another ladders were set up at the head of the city, and Ma Sui personally led people to slash the corners of the ladders with big knives, pour oil down, and smash stones and rolling wood. The back and forth fight was extremely fierce. The air was also filled with the smell of burnt paste. Bursts of black smoke flew into the air.

On the cheeks, his face had become a little ugly, and he cursed secretly in his heart: "The Qi army just likes to play turtles, and the generals who are useful are all left to defend the city." The one who commands the head of the national capital is a powerful character, very experienced and experienced. They are so well prepared that it seems that our army has long been exposed. But at this point, I have no way out!"

"Give me a desperate siege, and whoever takes half a step back will be killed!" and his eyes turned red, like a wild beast's roar.

At the head of the national capital, the number of casualties is also rising. The Tubo people used cavalry to cover the siege, which was really powerful. From time to time, someone was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground, and then the person behind quickly stepped up, and the wounded were dragged down.

Ma Sui roared with a long knife in his hand, commanding his men and horses to resist the enemy. However, except for the 3,000 Qi army, the others were all temporary people and miscellaneous soldiers. They didn't listen to the command and panicked, and some people couldn't help but pee their pants when they saw the blood and the dead.

Ma Sui knew that this did not mean that they were afraid of death. People who are afraid of death will not appear here now. It's an instinctive reaction. For the rest of his life, he has seen a lot of this kind of thing!

However, as soon as you kill the first enemy yourself, this symptom will disappear completely, and you will be completely lost in the killing and rage. Ma Sui's experience allowed him to command Ruo Ding in this battle of attacking and defending.

Fortunately, the walls of the capital are unusually tall and strong, and the gates are also extremely hard and thick. Unless the Tibetans can really attack the city and seize the city gate, otherwise, with their current equipment, it is absolutely impossible to hit the door and enter the ground. Ma Sui's heart is like a mirror, and he clearly knows that the enemy is to stop the enemy under the city, and he must not let an enemy army climb the city!

In the battle array a few miles away, the battle formations of Wu Chongyin and Guo Gangdi have almost merged together, mixing and fighting together. After staying, the Tubo people didn't want Wu Chongyin to go back and disturb them to attack the city, and Wu Chongyin and Guo Gang didn't want this group of people to kill in front of the national capital.
