Chapter 651: The Death of the Defender
Zhuge Qingyi and the emergency response force had just come to the south gate of Qincheng, and as soon as the city gate was opened, he saw dozens of horses galloping over.
"Who are they?" said Zhuge Qingyi when he turned to Qin Fanlin. The latter took a closer look and said, "This is Dong Tian's adjutant, he must be able to come back with important news!"
The adjutant came to the city gate, and without waiting for the horse under his crotch to be stable, he turned over and came forward to pay respects: "Generals, the Heavenly Silkworm Sect has raided our outpost, and General Dong has already led five hundred horsemen to rush over!"
This news surprised everyone present, and sure enough, the most feared thing happened. Feng Yuankai frowned and said, "If the Heavenly Silkworm Sect attacks on a large scale, how can General Dong's five hundred people resist it? This is clearly going to die!"
The adjutant said bitterly: "General Dong doesn't know, this is more than lucky, but he also said, I am going to buy more preparation time for Qincheng, and also ask the generals not to support him!" Dong Tian's decision made the commanders of the three most elite troops in the four major legions admire, Zhuge Qingyi hesitated for a moment, and then said categorically: "Immediately notify all the soldiers defending the city, close the city gate, and no one is allowed to enter and leave without permission." ”
The deputy general thought that the other party would send troops to support Dong Tian, but Zhuge Qingyi's move undoubtedly cut off Dong Tian's back road, and he would definitely die.
"General!" General Dong is still engaged in battle with the enemy forces at the front,...... adjutant said. Zhuge Qingyi interrupted him: "I know, I have said a long time ago, in the entire Qin City, only he is worthy of the title of general! War is definitely accompanied by casualties, but as a soldier, we must make our death worthwhile." Dong Tian, he has fulfilled his mission as a city defender very well!"
Zhuge Qingyi's words, Dong Tian had already said to the adjutants, but when something really happened, no matter who it was, it was inevitable that there would be compassion.
"General Zhuge , if you send troops to support General Dong now, maybe he can still be saved, and the situation won't be too bad!" the adjutant wanted to plead again. Zhuge Qingyi said coldly: "My order has been issued, and those who violate the order will be beheaded immediately!"
The adjutant had nothing to say, so he could only obediently return to the south gate where he was stationed, and he said to the soldiers: "Everyone, you have polished my eyes, if you see General Dong coming back, be ready to open the city gate at any time!"
In the outpost, there were only a few scattered people left of Dong Tian's 500 light cavalry, all of them were covered with scars, but none of these people escaped or begged for mercy. Dong Tian's broadsword had been broken into two sections, and Hanako, who had challenged him, had died at his feet.
Zhanpeng himself didn't expect that a team of less than 500 people would intercept them here, from the beginning of wanting to give the other party a dismount, and now he is impressed by the other party's tenacious spirit. Zhan Peng said to the remaining people: "If you are willing to surrender, as long as you promise not to fight against the Heavenly Silkworm Sect from now on, I can let you live!"
Dong Tian looked at the brothers behind him, they stood up with each other's arms, held the blades in their hands and said, "Don't talk nonsense, Lao Tzu can kill a few more of you!"
Dong Tian turned back with relief and said to Zhan Peng: "My brothers have said everything I want to say, I am very pleased as their general, I am very happy to die here today, and I have no regrets!" After speaking, he rushed forward with the broken knife in his hand, and although those soldiers staggered, they also rushed towards the formation of the Silkworm Sect.
The people around Zhan Peng were about to step forward to meet the enemy, but Zhan Peng said: "Let me come! These people are all iron-clad men, give them a good time!" After saying that, a huge wave of water slapped towards Dong Tian and the others, Dong Tian and his remaining brothers were all buried in this huge wave, and died at the outpost together with the five hundred cavalry before.
After confirming that Dong Tian was dead, Zhan Peng said to his subordinates: "It's too long to waste time here, and then you must march towards Qin City at full speed!"
The army of the Heavenly Silkworm Sect trampled on Dong Tian and their corpses and approached Qin City.
At this time, Qin Cheng was already ready to resist under Zhuge Qingyi's arrangement. The guards on the city wall were ready to shoot one by one, just waiting for the appearance of the Silkworm Sect.
Yue Xing was already wearing a strong face at this moment, standing on the city wall and staring into the distance. After Zhuge Qingyi made arrangements in all aspects, he said to Feng Yuankai and Xue Ankun: "Are you two looking at it like this?"
Xue Angkun smiled and said, "How come, we are not waiting for you to give us an order!" Zhuge Qingyi glanced at the two of them and said, "Don't tease me, this 'Xiao Yue Family Army' is honest, and its performance in the face of emergencies is not satisfactory, so I can't help but command for him!" Feng Yuankai nodded and said: "I agree with what you said, this group of little ghosts has always been much worse than the regular army." ”
Zhanpeng's troops are getting closer and closer to Qincheng, and the commanders of the four major legions at this time have also left the capital and are on their way back to Qincheng, they don't know that a war has quietly come.
Huo Min said to the other three commanders: "Our next important task is to rebuild the four major legions, and the soldiers who were frozen before are unable to wake up again because their own strength is too weak, so we must re-draw the troops." Chu Yu sighed and said: "This matter is easy to say, but it is difficult to do in practice, how many ordinary people are left in this world, and how many people are still willing to join the army?" Yue Qingzhong shook the feather fan in his hand and said: "Having said that, even if it is difficult, we have to find a way to overcome it, if even we give up, then who else can save the world?"
Qin Li turned two iron bumps in his left hand and said, "It's really not good, let's go and collect those robbers and bandits, arrest them all first, and then slowly train and educate!" Chu Yu nodded after hearing this, and said: "I think the plan Qin Li said is feasible, although the 'Xiaoyue Family Army' is very weak in terms of numbers and combat effectiveness now, but under our leadership, it will definitely not be a problem to take down those bandits and robbers!"
Huo Min was a little worried: "But those bandits who live by robbing homes and houses, can they really be trained by us to become elite soldiers?" Yue Qingzhong said: "No problem, most of the people who choose to fall into the grass now are forced by life and have to do it, as long as we teach them carefully, we will definitely be able to make them become qualified soldiers!"
The four commanders only brought a dozen followers on this trip, and just as they passed by the foot of Xuanwu Mountain, at the edge of a forest, a figure suddenly flashed out of the dense forest. Before a dozen of the followers could react, they were hit by the large shuriken thrown out by this person, and they all fell in a pool of blood.
The first of the four commanders to react was Qin Li, but the other party was so fast that he didn't have time to rescue those entourage, and the four of them could only watch the entourage fall.
"Who is so bold, and how dare to do something to our four commanders?" Qin Li roared angrily. At the same time, the huge shuriken slashed a graceful curve in the air and flew towards the four of them.
Qin Li's left hand shook, and the two iron beads flew out, hitting the shuriken, the beads bounced back, and the shuriken was also bounced aside.
Only then did the four of them see that it was a ninja, and they saw that he caught the shuriken that flew back and hung it on his back.
"Ninjas, are you from the Silkworm Sect, and you dare to attack us here?" Huo Min asked, but the other party did not reply, and two more ninjas appeared from the dense forest.
These three ninjas are none other than the hundred-legged mirrors that appeared in the summoning order before, Suzumiyagawa and Izumitsu.
Yue Qingzhong shook the feather fan in his hand lightly, and said: "The purpose of intercepting us here must be to delay time, presumably at this time, the Heavenly Silkworm Sect is doing its best to attack Qin City!" Qin Li was shocked when he heard this, and said: "Damn, those little ghosts in Qin City are not enough to resist the attack of the Heavenly Silkworm Sect, the old ghosts of the Heavenly Silkworm are really cunning, they even attacked while we were away! No, we have to kill these ninjas as soon as possible and rush to Qin City." ”
After saying that, Qin Li rushed out first, Liang Gongchuan shook his hand is a few shuriken, Qin Li easily dodged, and at the same time, a Fang Tian painting halberd appeared in his hand with the "internal force transformation" in his right hand, but when Qin Li was about to swing the halberd to kill him, he found that something was hanging the weapon in his hand. Fortunately, Yue Qingzhong, who was relatively calm on the side, developed a clue, and with a wave of the feather fan in his hand, several wind blades slashed over.
I saw that several thin invisible steel wires were cut off, and at the same time, Izumi Tsukasa, one of the ninjas, lost his strength and took several steps backwards one after another. Qin Li, who had escaped from the predicament, jumped up, and the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand slashed down.
The hundred-foot mirror said: "Scatter!" Liangmiyagawa and Izumi quickly dodged away, Qin Li's Fang Tian painting halberd was impartial in the center of the hundred-foot mirror, but when he fixed his eyes, he found that the hundred-foot mirror had turned into cherry blossoms and spread out.
"What kind of magic is this?" Qin Li hurriedly looked around for the hundred-foot mirror.
At this moment, another person jumped out of the dense forest. "The four commanders have admired the name for a long time, and the silkworm sent Wu Kat to teach him!" I saw that Wu Ka said neither humbly nor arrogantly. Three ninjas stood behind him.
Yue Qingzhong said: "As far as I know, the Heavenly Silkworm Sect doesn't have many top-level masters, and they can rely on ninjas of this level to intercept us, so dare to ask who do you rely on to attack Qin City?"
Wu Ka said with a smile: "It is worthy of Commander Yue, any plan is just a small skill in your eyes, then I will make it clear! The people who attack Qin City are stronger than us, and those strengthened people are not easy to kill!" Qin Li said to the other three commanders: "What nonsense are you talking about with them, let's go together, kill them and then go and save those little ghosts!"
Huo Min said unhurriedly: "Old Qin, don't worry! There are not only those little ghosts in Qincheng, but the best commanders of the three of you are also here, I can't trust the children to always trust them! We still focus on the present, the opponent is not easy to defeat!"
