Chapter 436: Blood at the City Gate (1)
The catapult attack in the distance died down, and at the same time, the four blazing torches were still seen by Zheng Pingyi and Wei Jin for the first time, even though they were blocked by the wind and snow.
"Your Highness, Lord Hou! The fire in the city has been controlled, and the attack of the catapult has stopped!" The herald who rushed up to the city gate tower in surprise returned to the rear, but all he saw was Zheng Ping's salty nod.
Zheng Pingping's eyes kept staring at the four burning torches in the distance, as if his eyes were burned by the light they emitted, and his eyes were sour and wanted to cry.
Master, you did it. It's a pity that Zheng Pingfei promised you to keep Duan Yifei and Ling Feixian in the city, but he couldn't do it.
Zheng Pingfei took a deep breath, and the sourness in his eyes finally turned into crystals and flowed down. However, Zheng Pingfei covered it up very well and was not discovered by his subordinates. He stared intently at the soldiers of the Great Wei Army who were still fighting on the first line of the city wall below, and suddenly turned around and said to the herald, "Pass my military order." Let the people in the rear hurry up to rescue the injured and clean up the collapsed houses, and report a general damage to me as soon as possible, be quick. β
The herald was just about to leave, but was stopped by Zheng Pingfei again: "Qin Yi and Wu Lun will each lead 3,000 elite cavalry out of the south gate, and strangle the captive army under the east and west cities in two ways, and then converge in the north, be sure to clear out in front of the north gate for me!"
"This ......"
The herald was still a little stunned, but he saw the unprecedented seriousness in Zheng Pingping's eyes.
"Yes. Although he knew that the order was almost to send him to death, the herald still gave the order word for word.
The officers and men of the Great Wei Army did not have any suspicions about Zheng Pingfei at all, even if Zheng Pingfei obviously let them die again, they would not hesitate! But the battle report that came later made Zheng Pingfei and Wei Jin frown. Qin Yi and Wu Lun, who had just left the city, were pressed back by the army of captives surrounded by the rear, and had no choice but to retreat to Langfu.
............
Wang Wu still stuck to the front line, he was finally exhausted and replaced in the third wave of rotation, but after resting in the back for less than half an hour, he rushed up again with two tufts of quiver.
The team of archers who had previously supported them also suffered heavy losses and were replaced by other squads, and even the strong man captain with a small ~ beard was killed by the random arrows below after shooting a captive infantryman. At this moment, the squad of archers on the city wall has been disrupted, and there is no complete formation for a long time. Wang Wu and Qian An simply pulled out a team by themselves, everyone here was the remnants of their respective teams, everyone was scarred, but there was a flame in their eyes, it was a flame called hatred.
They have only one behe: revenge, revenge for their dead comrades!
"The battering ram is up!
Wang Wu got up as soon as possible, and shot a sharp arrow with anger~ from the eye socket of a captive infantry below~ into it, directly nailing him to the spot!
Wang Wu's bravery is the reason why everyone is willing to follow him, under the leadership of Wang Wu, others are also fearless to attack the captives below, sharp arrows continue to shoot to the city ~ out, after a round of shooting, Wang Wu and Qian An lost two comrades again, but they shot more than a dozen captives!
On the city wall to the north, there are countless squads like Wang Wu!
But even under such a fierce defense, the siege vehicle still slowly approached the gate of Langfu. The moat of Langfu has been filled by the captives, and there is no longer the slightest obstacle in front of the siege engine!
A rain of arrows on the city wall was all aimed at the siege vehicle, but the design of this siege vehicle was quite ingenious, the thick cowhide in front and above blocked most of the arrow attacks, and the gap left by the occasional person being shot would be immediately filled by other captives, and for a while, the Great Wei army actually had no way to do this siege vehicle, so they could only watch him approach the city gate step by step!
Knock β
The sand and fine stones on the city gate fell downward, and the battering ram had been pushed to the city gate, bombarding the strong gate of Langfu again and again!
"Come on, come on, top ~ stop!"
A general of the Great Wei Army shouted loudly, with more than a dozen soldiers of the Great Wei Army on the inside of the city gate, and there were still people running here in the rear, but the offensive outside the city was too fierce, and every time the battering ram smashed the city gate, the soldiers of the Great Wei Army behind the city gate would be involuntarily shocked back. The falling sand has turned into larger stones, and the creaking sound on the huge city gate is getting louder and louder, and the city gate is going to be unbearable!
"Fleur, you wait on the city wall, I'll go back as soon as I go!"
Chu Linxu quickly approached, put down a large heavy rope on his shoulder, picked up one end and jumped off the city wall without looking back, he didn't realize that this was the first time he called out this sentence.
Bai Furui followed closely behind with a sweaty head, he looked at the rope that was rapidly shortening in circles, and saw that Chu Linxu had already jumped down first, she glanced at the place where Chu Linxu jumped and fell hatefully, hurriedly grabbed the other end of the rope and tied it around her waist, and yelled at the soldiers of the Great Wei Army around her: "Everyone come and help!"
Wang Wu was still wondering why a character suddenly appeared here~ The woman thought she was so tired that she was dazzled, but Bai Fuhui's shout immediately made him react, he took Qian An and quickly ran to this side, and there were other comrades behind him, Wang Wu and Qian An's two pairs of rough hands grabbed the rope for the first time, and it was at this moment that the rope finally tightened!
The huge falling force made the three of them unable to hold it at all, but fortunately, one after another Great Wei soldiers from the rear rushed here, and only when it increased to more than a dozen people did they stop the downward trend.
Bai Furui felt that the other end of the rope suddenly became lighter, it was Chu Linxu who had already loosened the rope and jumped into the battlefield!
"Stinky boy, you have to come back to me!
Bai Furui's roar only brought a sound of swords from the city gate, Bai Furui smiled at the soldiers of the Great Wei Army around him, and thanked: "Please help me later." β
"What's the name of that hero. What the fuck ......."
The city wall here is as high as ten zhang, and whoever jumps from here means that he is already dead, Wang Wu can't go on, but the meaning of Bai Furui is already clear.
"He will definitely come back after destroying the siege engine, he will!" Bai Fuyuan's eyes flashed with crystal, and she bit her lower lip hatefully, stubbornly distressing.
............
Below, there is a sword mountain and sword forest, and below, there is a bloody killing field!
This is the stage where I am in the void.
Chu Linxu's jumping position was directly above the siege vehicle, and his appearance made the captives stunned, but then they were greeted by a rain of sharp arrows! Chu Linxu's Falling God left a virtual shadow in front of him, shooting down all the arrows one by one, and then pulling out a sword flower in the air, and the majestic sword qi burst out from the blade of the Falling God and slashed towards the siege vehicle!
Whenβ
There was a huge dent in the iron armor on the roof of the siege car, but the siege vehicle was undamaged. Another hammer, and the gates creaked again!
Chu Linxu's eyes were raised, and he simply let go of the rope and jumped directly into the crowd of captives, suddenly setting off a bloody rain. Countless human heads splashed up, blood flowers bloomed, Chu Linxu seemed to have incarnated into the Hellworld's life-seeking Yama, and even the black clothes on his forehead were dyed with a dark red blood color at this moment.
It was another sword owl, but Chu Linxu was also stabbed in the back, but he showed a cold smile, the black gauze hat had already been lost on the battlefield in the previous battle, and Chu Linxu, who showed his true face, stared at the siege vehicle close at hand, and once again raised his sword to kill!
"Stop him! Don't let him destroy the Gongcheng car!"
The general who led the team was full of heart and gall, and just now Chu Linxu directly killed dozens of people under him like a god descending from heaven, which was really as easy as chopping melons and vegetables. But his identity did not allow him to retreat, and the captive general commanded the captive soldiers to continue to bombard the city gate, while letting others surround Chu Linxu and prevent him from approaching the siege vehicle!
More than 20 captive warriors struggled to pull up the battering ram again, and the battering ram raised high drew a heavy arc and smashed towards the Langfu City Gate at the moment they let go!
Tremble in the balance!
Chu Linxu's eyes suddenly burst out with wolf-like ferocity!
Kill ββ
Chu Linxu burst out with a loud roar in his heart, but the whole person looked extremely calm from the outside, no, it should be said that he was ruthless! He fought with his arm and stabbed again, and rushed past the three captive warriors who were blocking him, and an incomparable sword light erupted in his hand, and the blade of the sword pointed directly at the axle on the right side of the siege vehicle!
It's a matter of success or failure!
