Chapter 132: The Return of the Evil Venerable
When Zhu Yuzhen saw the embarrassed soldiers fleeing back, he was first shocked and then angry. He didn't know where the other party had such a strong combat power, obviously it was already the end of the strong crossbow, why did he still have such a fierce momentum that was not afraid of death.
Shock was followed by anger, and since the beginning of the army, he has been like a bamboo, crisscrossing more than a thousand miles like entering a no-man's land. How could you be blocked by a small capital at the last moment. He couldn't stand it anyway.
What's more, the ghost country is still watching from the sidelines, and the military power is not shown but is laughed at. It made him feel dull, and that was what annoyed him the most. For him who is stubborn and self-serving, he can't lose face by throwing anything, especially in front of the ghost country.
So Zhu Yuzhen angrily gave the order to attack again, and this time he mobilized 40,000 troops to launch a fierce attack towards Deshengmen.
There were only 150,000 troops in the capital, and they had to guard nine gates, each gate was less than 20,000 people, and although Deshengmen had 20,000 people, it was also outnumbered in the face of the enemy's army of 40,000 people.
Yu Ziqian and Zhu Youzhu were not afraid and immediately gave the order to charge. 20,000 Ming soldiers, wielding broadswords and spears, once again rushed into the enemy formation. Zhu Yuzhen, who was full of ambition, never thought that the army of the Ming Empire would be so fierce and fearless of death.
Every soldier wanted to go crazy, his momentum was like a dragon, although there were many people on his side, but he soon appeared defeated in front of the wolf-like Ming Jun. Naturally, they will not know that the way of life on the Ming side is only to move forward and not retreat, as long as one step back is death.
Therefore, in order to survive, they can only move forward, forward, and kill the enemy in front of them, so they have one more chance to live. They had no hesitation, they had no choice, the shouts of killing rushed into the sky, and in an instant rivers of blood flowed, stumps and broken bones were scattered all over the ground, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.
Looking at the crazy Ming soldiers, Zhu Yuzhen and the generals around him felt a chill. What's the matter, these people are like they're crazy. It is not at all the same level as the defenders of the states and counties that are about to collapse along the way.
However, Zhu Yuzhen is always a person who has seen a big scene, and although his heart is shocked, he is not flustered. He has a million heroes in hand, and his troops are far above the Ming Empire, how could he encounter such a setback and mess up his position. What's more, in his opinion, the Ming Empire is just doing a battle of trapped beasts, and it won't last long.
So with a wave of the flag, he once again transferred 40,000 troops to divide into four roads and surrounded Zhu Youzhu and Yu Ziqian's army. Zhu Youzhu and Yu Ziqian were not afraid, holding spears and leading their soldiers to kill the enemy bravely.
Although Zhu Youzhu and Yu Ziqian are not military generals, they are in this Yuanwu continent where martial arts are respected. But anyone who has the conditions will choose to let the descendants of the consultation cultivate, and Zhu Youzhu and Yu Ziqian also have the cultivation of the eighth grade of the Human Yuan Realm, and after the help of Xiao Wuxie's Divine Pill, now the two of them are already the cultivation of the third grade of the Geochemical Realm.
Although he is not a master, he is much stronger than ordinary soldiers. At this time, the two of them each led a team in the battlefield, rushing left and right, rushing back and forth to kill, and the enemy who killed was on his back and turned over and bled like a river. Both of them were covered in blood, all over their faces and hair.
Yu Ziqian is the grandson of the prime minister of the dynasty, and Yu Mian's subordinates naturally have no shortage of guards from the door. Whether it is Zhu Youzhu or the previous one, there are two powerhouses of the Amaterasu Realm who are protecting him. The two are the backbone of the army, and there is no room for the slightest difference.
At this time, Zhu Yujun stood at the commanding heights in the city, looking at Zhu Youzhu who was rushing back and forth in the enemy formation, and his heart was full of emotion. In the past, he had never paid attention to his son, and he had never even remembered such a son, but today he saw the merits of this son.
Looking at the surrounding crown prince and the third prince, his face was pale and even more angry. On weekdays, these two sons fight for me, and they seem to be very capable, but when the country needs them, they are afraid of life and death.
There are advantages and disadvantages in comparison, and now in his eyes, Zhu Youzhu is much better than Zhu Youqi and Zhu Youcong. Why didn't he see this before, he was ashamed and extremely annoyed. is also his own son, why should he favor one over the other.
The martial arts masters that Zhu Yuzhen has recruited for a long time are constantly approaching Zhu Youzhu and Yu Ziqian at this time. Everyone understands the truth that the thief captures the king first, but those masters were all stopped by the two guards.
Moreover, although the Jinyi guards were ordered to stay in the city, they were all shouting and cheering at the head of the city under Zhu Yujun's orders, holding strong bows and crossbows one by one. As soon as he saw that a master was trying to get close to Zhu Youzhu and Yu Ziqian, he would release arrows to reinforce them, so the enemy could not rush to the side of the two in a short time.
Moreover, Yu Ziqian and Zhu Youjiao's two guards are all masters of the Eight Grades of the Amaterasu Realm, and ordinary masters are not their opponents. But Zhu Yuzhen has been gathering masters on the rivers and lakes for many years, and there are not a few capable people in his hands, and they are rushing towards the two of them in waves.
In this battle, Zhu Yuzhen directly threw in 80,000 troops, more than four times the Ming army. Yu Ziqian's side was as strong as a tiger, fearless of death, and inflicted heavy losses on the enemy. But after all, the difference in strength between the two sides was huge, and the Ming army also suffered heavy losses after a battle.
Mawa Hideyoshi, who was watching the battle not far away, frowned, and his heart fluctuated greatly. In his cognition, the Ming Dynasty is just a virtual appearance, and the soldiers are even more vulnerable. This is also the biggest reason why they decided to take advantage of this meeting to enter the Central Plains.
But now after seeing the combat effectiveness of the Ming army, he realized that he was wrong. Such a strong soldier is nothing more than the elite of their ghost country. And it was in this extremely disadvantageous situation that they were not afraid of death, and he had not seen a single soldier retreat since the battle.
Even when he saw his comrades-in-arms fall in front of him one by one, no one blinked. But each of their eyes was covered with a layer of blood, as if there was only killing in their eyes at this time.
Although the number of troops on the Ming side was also decreasing, the fool could also see that the number of deaths on Zhu Yuzhen's side was at least twice as high as on the Ming side. With such a fierce war scene, even Zhu Yujun, who once crisscrossed the battlefield, couldn't help but shudder when he looked at it.
Zhu Yuzhen looked at the tall Zhu Yujun with angry eyes, and it was this person who snatched his own throne. Today, he must take his things back, and with a wave of the flag, two thousand people rushed out from the left and right.
At this time, Zhu Yuzhen's army had increased to 100,000 people, and with 100,000 people against 20,000, it can be said that he had an absolute advantage in the number of troops. It is true that the Ming army, which was already a little weak, was even more stressed at this time, and the losses were even heavier.
Yu Ziqian ran up a dirt slope, pointed his spear at the sky and shouted, "Be loyal to the country, only today, brothers kill!"
The sound of the rainbow sounded on the battlefield, and all the Ming troops immediately boiled with enthusiasm. The main generals have already taken the lead, and what else is terrible for them is death.
For a while, the atmosphere on the battlefield seemed to have changed, and the Ming army, which was obviously at a disadvantage, steadily suppressed the enemy army with a large number of people in terms of momentum. The generals of the rebel army couldn't believe it when they saw the imposing Ming army, what kind of faith could make them fearless of death.
A soldier who is not afraid of death is extremely strong in combat, but strong combat effectiveness does not mean that he can dominate the victory of a war. After all, the number of people is too small, under the joint attack of 100,000 troops, Yu Ziqian's side has suffered heavy losses, and the battlefield is constantly compressing.
The range of activities that the Ming army could move was also rapidly shrinking, and Zhu Youzhu and Yu Ziqian were also wounded. Zhu Yujun looked at the Ming soldiers who were still fighting bloodily with a sad expression, although he was sad, but more of a gratification, even if he was defeated, he would be defeated vigorously.
Yu Ziqian and Zhu Youzhu looked at the soldiers who kept coming and going, their eyes were blood-red, and they led more than 1,000 people around them to join forces.
At this point, they have no power to return to heaven. Now only with their own blood to be loyal to the country, the two glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled, and each understood each other's intentions. One world, two brothers, even if we want to die, we will go to Huangquan together.
Suddenly, a cold arrow shot at Yu Ziqian, and everyone was shocked, even the two guards were shocked. A figure suddenly rushed over, and the shield in his hand was thrown away, and at this time, Yu Ziqian saw that the person who shot was actually Hua Liuliu.
Yu Ziqian and Zhu Youzhu were shocked, they didn't know why Hua Liuliu was here. They obviously let Hua Liuliu stay in the city. Hua Liuliu's body was reduced to more than two hundred catties after eating Xiao Wuxian's slimming pill, although it was still heavier than ordinary people, but it was no longer so conspicuous, otherwise he would have been recognized at a glance in the army.
"You two are fighting outside, how can you be without me" Hua Liuliu smiled.
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, all of them extremely excited. They are sons of the world in the eyes of the world, but their brothers know that they are both ambitious people.
"Yes, it's ours, it's not. It's worth it to have brothers like you who treat each other with heart and soul in your life, and share life and death" After speaking, the three of them laughed, like no one in the thousands of armies.
"Look, Lord Wang, the enemy can't stand it" A general beside King Ning said excitedly, and King Ning nodded his head eagerly.
However, at this moment, there was a burst of chaos in the rear of the army, and the smoke and flames filled the sky. Immediately after, a herald came on horseback, very embarrassed.
"What's going on?" asked King Ning with a loud shout.
The messenger said in fear, "The grain and grass camp was attacked by a sneak attack, and the grain and grass were burned!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked, and everyone was puzzled. The capital has become an isolated city, there are no reinforcements at all, where did this army come from.
Grain and grass are the lifeblood of the army, and the burning of grain and grass is definitely a fatal blow to the army. Before they had time to be shocked, a shout of killing behind them was approaching, and everyone hurriedly looked back. A large banner in the thousands of armies is unusually conspicuous, because the word "evil" is written on it in blood.
