Chapter 671: War in the Imperial Capital (15)

"Enter the city at once, take the gates, and charge the inner city!" the officer of the Guards who had entered the city shouted loudly to his men, and the war took place almost without conscious fighting. The Imperial Capital Corps was on full alert for the Imperial Palace, and all the troops were on guard in the barracks, waiting for the orders of their officers to immediately support the Imperial Palace. Although the security of the city gate is very strict, it is impossible to prevent the inner ghosts no matter what, not to mention that these internal ghosts are still those internal ghosts that have existed for thousands of years of organizational development, especially the deep hidden nature of these inner ghosts.

"Block, block me, you must block me, you must not let them rush into the city. "A brigade commander of the Imperial Capital Corps suddenly received an order from the soldiers under his command, and hurriedly greeted him with thousands of soldiers under his command. The city gate was already littered with corpses, and blood was everywhere on the ground. When the brigade commander hurried to the city gate with his people, he ran into the cavalry of the Guards who rushed in, and hurriedly commanded his soldiers to meet them.

Bang, the two soldiers who rushed to the front raised their long knives and slammed into the cavalry rushing from the opposite side, and their bodies flew straight out like a straight line. The two soldiers of the Imperial Capital Corps who followed behind him watched the two soldiers who rushed to the front being knocked out by the cavalry, and they were stunned for a moment, and the cavalry who rushed over did not hesitate at all, and the sabre in their hands slashed straight down, and suddenly two pillars of blood rushed into the sky, and the two heads fell to the ground.

"Bastard, what are you doing! Wait for death!" The soldiers of the Imperial Capital Corps, who went to the battlefield for the first time, were immediately shocked by this bloody killing, and the soldiers who had never been on the battlefield all stood there one by one, holding the knife in their hands, their hands trembling constantly, and their legs trembling even more. The officers at all levels of the Imperial Capital Corps were all veterans of the former Guards. They were all veterans who had killed people and seen blood. I was stunned when I saw the soldiers under my command. Kicked a soldier into the air and shouted angrily.

Poof, the long knife in the hand of the captain who was blocking the front shook and stepped on the shoulder of a soldier and jumped high into the sky, the long knife in his hand twisted in the air and slashed through a fierce knife wind, slashing at the cavalry who rushed to the front with a hideous face, the long knife slashed straight down the shoulder of the cavalry, and the sharp long knife cut down the enemy's shoulder and the horse that sat down in two. And the cavalryman was also extremely brave, and before he died, he slashed the saber in his hand at the captain. The saber slashed down the captain's face, and blood flowed down the captain's face.

"If you don't want to die, cut the enemy in front of you for me!" The captain shook his hand and cut off the hooves of a rushing war horse, and the horse screamed and threw the cavalryman to the ground, and cut off the head of the enemy soldier with a backhand knife. The captain's face was hideous, which immediately stunned those soldiers, they never thought that the usually kind captain would have such a brave side, and the captain's scolding and the tragic situation on the ground suddenly aroused the courage of these soldiers.

"Kill!" people are all animals that are susceptible to infection, especially the constant presence of their own robes and brothers falling in front of them, thinking of the scene of training together in the past and eating in a horse spoon. These soldiers, who had never been on the battlefield, were also fighting with each other with red eyes. The two torrents collided heavily in the night, and the swords of both sides kept rushing towards each other's fatal places. There were even brave soldiers who used their lives to intercept those cavalry.

The avenue of the Imperial Capital City is very wide, but the dense army is blocked on the wide streets. The cavalry also lost its impact after crashing into dozens of enemies in a row, and once the cavalry lost its impact, it immediately lost 80 percent of its combat effectiveness. The soldiers of the Imperial Capital Corps had already spent the most difficult period under the command of the officers, and now they had forgotten about life and death, and there was only one thought in their minds, that is, to hack the enemy in front of them, to avenge the death of the Paozawa brothers, and to accumulate enough merit for themselves.

"Report, Marshal, the enemy has entered the city. A herald ran into the palace Wuji Hall panting and reported to Bai Qi and the others who were anxiously waiting, and the herald knelt on the ground regardless of his fatigue and reported to Bai Qi: "General, the spies of the net have opened the Desheng Gate and the Water Gate, and now the enemy soldiers are pouring into the Imperial Capital City in a steady stream, and the defenders of the towns everywhere are in a situation of fighting for themselves, and they are all asking for support from the commander. ”

"What? The water gate has also been opened? What the hell is going on? What about Huo Quai? What about Wei Qing? What about Li Siye? Where are they now?" Bai Qi's face changed suddenly, he looked at the fire in the city, and there were bursts of fierce fighting, but he didn't expect that the enemy had already entered the city, once a million troops all poured into the city, then the entire situation in the imperial capital would undergo serious changes, although the strength in the city was not tight, but to face millions of troops, Bai Qi also suddenly felt a heavy pressure on his shoulders.

"Order Huo Quai, immediately lead his soldiers and horses to capture the water gate, Wei Qing with his soldiers and horses to capture the Desheng Gate, Li Siye strictly guarded the Beiping Gate, open the Ping Gate, Xu Yao mobilized all the troops under his command to immediately rush to the Desheng Gate to support, and must block the enemy near the Desheng Gate. Bai Qi's complexion quickly returned to normal, and he immediately dispatched his troops to support everywhere. Now the only troops that can be transferred in the city are Wei Qing's department and Huo Qu's department, and Li Siye's department has to be cautious at this time, and he doesn't dare to move, if they transfer the tiger away from the mountain, the imperial capital will be really dangerous.

"Not good. Bai Qi looked at the map and suddenly his face changed, and he hurriedly pointed to a few points of the empire and said solemnly: "They chose to do it now, they must have received some support, and now the only one who can support them is the Qingzhou army, but the information sent back by the scouts has not yet arrived near the imperial capital." The Qingzhou Army, the Qingzhou Army must be here, where are the two million Qingzhou Army? How many followers do they have?

"Come, hurry up and send a message to the headquarters of the Yue Fei Legion, I don't care what method they use, I must rush to the imperial capital in the early morning of the day after tomorrow at the latest, and immediately launch an attack from Wushengmen. Bai Qi focused on the Wusheng Gate in the west of the Imperial Capital City, Wusheng Gate, if he didn't guess wrong, the two million Qingzhou Army must be here. For a long time to come. Wushengmen will be the focus of contention. The combat effectiveness of the Qingzhou Army is no worse than theirs.

"Newspaper. Dashuai, Wushengmen was suddenly opened, the garrison army was annihilated, General Li Siye had already rushed to Wushengmen with his soldiers and horses to support and fight with the enemy who rushed in, General Li asked Dashuai to send troops to support. Before the generals gathered around Bai Qi could express their questions, suddenly a soldier covered in blood rushed in, knelt on the ground and reported loudly to Bai Qi, Bai Qi's face changed. It's finally time to come.

"Bai Fei, you and your subordinates rushed to Wushengmen immediately, and I will resist the enemy's attack to the death, and I must not let them attack the inner city. Deng Yu, I will give you 30,000 troops to support the Deshengmen area to support the Weiqing Division, not far from the Deshengmen area is the area where the nobles live, where I will block the enemy's attack to the death, I don't believe it, those nobles don't want to move yet. Su Yan. You have 50,000 cavalry with you as a mobile force, if there is any movement in the city. Immediately bring the troops under your command to extinguish me. Bai Qi personally mobilized the three pro-soldier captains under his command to take the most elite corps under his command to support everywhere.

"Marshal, isn't this a bit risky? We only have our First Army Corps in our hands as Zuihou's mobile force, if we send out all Zuihou's mobile forces, once the enemy still has a back-up call for us, right?"

"No, the enemy's rear-moves are in the palace, and all they do is to attract our troops. Bai Qi decisively stopped the proposal of the generals under his command and said with a smile: "If my guess is correct, then the enemy of Wushengmen should be the Qingzhou Army Headquarters that is going south to support, and Shuimen and Deshengmen are attacking together in order to attract our attention." However, they did play a beautiful trick, and the three armies attacked at the same time to contain the forces in the city, and we had to follow him. ”

"Their ultimate goal must be the lord in the Chongming Palace, but they never thought that they had a backhand, we also have a backhand, they want to mobilize our troops, since we have no way, it is better to follow them, use the troops under their command to stop their offensive strength, and then continue to mobilize troops to continue to hang their army, so that Zhou Yu's department from Jingzhou and Yue Fei's department from the north and south can form a flanking attack on them, and it is easy to defeat them. ”

"The order goes down, and the armies of all walks of life hold their own defense areas tightly, and now they will start to issue martial law orders in the inner and outer cities, and no one is allowed to appear on the streets, otherwise they will be killed. "In troubled times, Bai Qi was not a soft-hearted person, let alone in such a special period now. The top priority is to stabilize the imperial capital and not let his position be chaotic first. The situation in the city is very complicated, and Bai Qi doesn't have the heart to play slowly with these people.

Fighting, screaming, blood, with the first rays of the sun shining on the head of the imperial capital, the imperial capital is no longer the imperial capital that can stop fighting and stop fighting, and it is no longer the imperial capital that everyone worships in the eyes of the empire. Blood had made the city so dirty, countless figures were fighting together, their shouts were so weak, but their sword-wielding hands were so strong. With each slash, several people kept twitching their bodies to the ground, and blood flowed down the traces on the stone pavement of the imperial capital to the sewers of the imperial capital.

The strong smell of blood even filled the Imperial Capital City with an unacceptable smell, but at this time, no one would pay attention to these, and no one had time to manage them. The people of the Imperial Capital no longer knew that this was the first time that the Imperial Capital had been killed, and they even felt that the war was not very far away from them, it was right next to them, and it was happening right in front of their eyes. No one dared to go out of this house, the black cavalry ran on the streets, constantly reading out the orders of the emperor, and the sound of the horse's hooves ticking made the people of the emperor cover their children's mouths to prevent them from making a noise to arouse the idea of the cavalry outside the door. The fighting in the imperial capital has exhausted these people, and they have become numb.

"Brothers, follow me and continue to kill!" Huo Quzhi's white clothes and white armor had completely turned bright red, and the plum blossom gun in Huo Quzhi's hand was constantly dripping with blood. Behind him, thousands of soldiers coldly raised the spears in their hands and lined up in a long line, following Huo Quai, shouting neat slogans, constantly stabbing the enemy soldiers who were killing on the opposite side and knocking them to the ground. Blood and life are common themes of humanity, and from the very beginning of human existence, the struggle never stops.

Huo Qubing shot an enemy general to the ground. Huo Qubing no longer knew how many generals he had killed. In short, the corpses on the ground told all the enemy soldiers. This young youngster is a bit outrageously tough. The enemy soldiers surrounding Huo Qubing glanced at each other first, and they all roared and stabbed the spear in their hands at Huo Quzhi. Huo Quzhi snorted coldly, the plum blossom gun in his hand shook, a cold light flashed, and the hundreds of soldiers who rushed over fell to the ground screaming.

"Shenwu Army, fight to the death!" Huo Qubing knocked hundreds of soldiers to the ground with one move, and the cavalry behind him suddenly boosted their morale, and roared and followed Huo Qubing to rush over and kill him. Fighting. Heads, stumps and severed arms all flew into the sky. Huo Quzhi and his soldiers had already fought with the enemy soldiers who rushed in all night, and countless soldiers lost their lives that night. The daytime battle continued, the heavy city gate was already crackling and burning, and the corpses on the city were constantly bleeding.

The battle at the Water Gate was bloody and brutal, but the pressure was minimal, after all, the army outside the city needed to be transported to the city by warships to enter the city through the Water Gate. However, the fight between Deshengmen and Wushengmen was much more tragic, Wei Qing and Li Siye were under greater pressure, Huo Qubing had already divided a part of his troops to support the two gates, but Deshengmen on the side was still in danger. Wei Qing constantly commanded his troops to rush forward. But it still held back the Guards who kept rushing in.

"All armies are holding the line, and they must withstand the enemy's attack. "The First Guards Corps, which was put into battle one after another, suddenly relieved the pressure on all fronts a lot. As the First Guards Regiment entered the battlefield, the entire battlefield was instantly shrouded in a thick layer of death. What kind of generals with what kind of soldiers, the powerful combat effectiveness of the First Guards Regiment is not blown out of the mouth, but in real combat, and the terrifying atmosphere alone is enough to make everyone feel an extremely terrifying death, this kind of death.

"Kill!" Deng Yu suddenly appeared on the battlefield with the troops under his command, which suddenly reduced the pressure on Wei Qing's department. The area around Deshengmen was the place where the battle was most intense, and although Wei Qing's headquarters was supported by Xu Yao's Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, they still felt tremendous pressure in the face of the continuous influx of guards. If these soldiers only poured in from the city gate, Wei Qing could still rely on the terrain to block the enemy's attack, but these soldiers not only poured in from the city gate, but even the city head continued to pour in enemy soldiers, and the city wall no longer had the defensive strength of the Shenwu army, and Wei Qing's troops could only spread along the line.

As soon as the Reaper Legion joined, the morale of the enemy troops rushing in was suddenly shaken, and this was a heavy pressure. The black grim reaper shrouded the Desheng Gate, the soldiers on both sides were fighting with their lives, and the soldiers of the First Guards Regiment raised the spears in their hands and kept stabbing the enemy in front of them to the ground with neat steps, there was no shouting of killing, not even the shouts of fighting, only the crisp sound of the spear constantly piercing into the human body.

The palace of the king of Pingbei, the heavy atmosphere made the originally noisy palace seem extremely depressing, and the huge courtyard was full of guards. The same is true of the surrounding nobles' mansions, all the guards and courtyards are fully armed and concentrated in the courtyard waiting for their master's orders, and the news of the fighting in the city continues to reach the ears of everyone. The Shenwu Army fought very bravely, but it could never stop the Guards and the Qingzhou Army with absolute superiority in strength, and the defense line of the Shenwu Army was still shrinking, blocking the enemy one after another.

The king of Pingbei and the king of Pingnan continued to listen to the reports of their subordinates, and now the situation in the imperial capital has reached the point where they have to send it. If Liu Fan is driven out of the imperial capital, the benefits they will lose will far exceed the benefits they are about to get, and they all know very well that if the Shenwu army is driven out of the imperial capital, then it will not be Zhang Bai who has been waiting outside the city to control the imperial capital, but Dong Zhuo, who is still blocked in the north.

Squeak, the heavy gate of the Pingbei Royal Mansion was finally opened, and the heavily armed guards rumbled out of the Pingbei Royal Mansion under the leadership of their respective generals to support the gates. At the same time, the gates of the Pingnan Palace, all the mansions of the nobles were opened at the same time, and countless soldiers rushed out of the gates to support the city gates. The combat effectiveness of the guards of these nobles was very strong, and the battles that were supported in various places finally stabilized the precarious defensive line, and this time the enemy troops attacking from outside the city also lost the spirit of attack, and fought with the soldiers of the Shenwu Army on the stabilized defensive line.

"This group of people finally couldn't help it, and I have to say that they chose a very good time. Bai Qi was also greatly relieved when he received the report from his subordinates, obviously he also admired the timing chosen by these nobles. If they don't do it today, as long as the Shenwu Army survives the most difficult day today, Yue Fei's Northern Corps will be able to arrive, and the balance of victory will be deflected in the direction of the Shenwu Army.
