Chapter Twenty-Six: The East and West Gates

At the time of the battle of the south gate of the capital, at the same time, the siege battle of the west gate and the east gate was also taking place......

Before the start of the royal capital strategy, in the military and political council, Tang Xian had divided the division of the army evenly, and Li Nan led 300,000 to attack the south gate!

Ximen is the old general of Yancheng: Liu Yang led 200,000 troops to attack!

The east gate is the city lord of Nanyang: Lin Gui led 200,000 troops to attack!

Compared with the ground battle between Li Nanbing and the defenders in Nancheng, the defenders of these two city gates are obviously much less, and they are all closed city gates, strictly guarded!

Because all the law enforcement team members in the city have gone to the main battlefield in the south, there are no law enforcement team members here in the east and west gates. The defenders of both gates used the walls as pillboxes, and the attacks were mainly based on bows and arrows, fire oil, and catapults...

At the west gate of the imperial city: Liu Yang's battlefield

This is already the fifth wave of attack by the siege troops, hundreds of ladders are erected on the city wall, and one by one the siege soldiers are fearlessly rushing up the ladders... A rain of arrows whistling past my ears...

The smoke on the city wall is everywhere, and the fire arrows are still glowing, and the corpses on the city wall are all over the field at this moment.

There were even soldiers who were hit by an arrow in the chest and hung on the city walls, and died with their eyes open,...

A soldier had an arrow in his left eye, but without a scream, he raised his knife and resolutely rushed towards the enemy,...

Some siege soldiers were pushed off the ladder by the enemy and fell, some were hit by arrows and fell, as long as they were alive, they did not hesitate to stand up, as long as they could still climb, they climbed the ladder again...

From the very beginning, fighting for food, fighting for the homeland, fighting for the law enforcement team, fighting for glory! They are fighting solely for revenge!!

Fight for your comrades-in-arms who used to play and play!

Fight for those strange comrades who have been killed by the enemy!

In order to avenge them!!, even if it is fought until the last moment!

For the brothers who drank together!

For the strange comrade who lifted me up when I fell to the ground, and he was killed by several arrows... Because of that strange comrade-in-arms, he shouted "kill !!" before he died

Even if you are already disabled!

Even if the body is already crumbling!

Even to the last drop of blood!

Brother, as long as I can wield a broadsword!

Just let me take your will and kill... Walls!!

At this moment, the soldiers of the Righteous Army have only one belief in their hearts! That is: revenge! Revenge!

Kill Kill...

With a firm belief in revenge, the siege soldiers who were not afraid of death finally climbed the ladder, stepped on the city wall with one step, and fought with the defenders on the city wall...

"Comrade-in-arms, I'll cut you one more time!"

More and more, more and more siege soldiers climbed the walls ... The battle situation is a downfall, the righteous army attacks like a beast, often after an enemy dies, they have to cut three or four more knives before they are willing to put away their knives and kill the enemy elsewhere!

"Defend it for me, why don't you defend it for Lao Tzu!" the defenders on the city wall, the general Zeng Erda shouted. As he spoke, he also slashed and killed two siege soldiers.

"General Zeng! Let's withdraw quickly! They are about to attack completely, and the enemy army is like a bamboo, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to stop us! The general might as well withdraw!" A henchman soldier said urgently to the general

"On the occasion of the Great War, you will confuse the people with evil words and disturb the morale of the army! You deserve death! You must be a spy of the enemy army!"

After listening to the soldier's words, Zeng Er picked up his long knife and stabbed the soldier in the stomach! This made the surrounding defenders feel shocked in their hearts, and they did not dare to claim to retreat again.

"Those who flee from the battle will be killed! Those who disturb the morale of the army will be killed! If you don't defend me, kill me!!" After Zeng Er finished speaking, he stabbed through a deserter with a long knife in his hand, and slashed at the siege soldiers who were on the city wall...

The light flickered continuously, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of siege soldiers could be killed!

"General, the left side of the city gate has been breached by siege soldiers!"

"General, the right side of the city wall has been breached by the siege soldiers, and the defenders have suffered heavy casualties!!General! They are all wild beasts! Crazy! They don't even let go of the dead corpses, and after they are killed, they all have to laugh and slash a few more times...... "A soldier staggered over.

After the soldier finished speaking, there was still a look of fear on his face, and he was terrified. As soon as he thought of those siege soldiers, his heart was shocked and creepy, and he probably would never forget those cold and piercing eyes! They don't care about the pain in their bodies, they don't even spare their corpses! They can't wait to dismantle eight pieces! They laugh every time they kill someone, it's just... Demon!

At this time, beside General Zeng Er, a henchman gritted his teeth, walked in front of General Zeng Er, and said nervously: "General! We might as well run away!"

General Zeng Er looked at the left and right sides of the city wall tiredly, and felt mixed with sadness! The left and right sides of the city wall have been greatly broken! Only the middle of the city wall where he is still fighting! Seeing that the righteous army on both sides is killing in this direction, he is overwhelmed! The battle situation has already passed!

General Zeng Er rarely did not kill the soldier who said that he was fleeing, but said to a thousand henchmen in front of him: "You have been following me for many years! Run!!"

"General, why don't you leave?" asked a confidant, puzzled

"My parents died when I was a child! I was raised by the great commander Chang Gangjun, gave me food, clothing, and martial arts! Now the Great Commander just wants me to guard this gate! I will not fail in my mission!

"Don't you leave soon! If it's a little later, you won't be able to escape, go quickly!! This is Zeng Er's last order to you! Don't listen to the order!" Zeng Er scolded angrily

"Yes, will... General!" The henchmen finished their mourning, and tears flowed down their faces. One by one, they jumped off the city wall and stayed away from here...

"Great Commander, let Zeng Er fight for you until the last moment!" Zeng Er finished speaking, holding a long knife in his hand, he resolutely rushed towards the siege soldiers attacking from the left...

Shouting to kill... The sound of weapons colliding... The roar continues!

The veteran general Liu Yang and all the generals have also been stained with blood so far, and the three generals are the most courageous, destroying all the way, killing more than a thousand enemies, and where the sword has passed, there is no more life! A few strides rushed to the middle of the city wall, and fought with the second general Zeng who defended the city wall, and the three generals became more and more brave the more they fought, and the offensive became more and more fierce! Zeng Er saw that he was about to be defeated...

"Grand Commander!Student Zeng Er!!Has reported Jun En'!!"

In a few breaths, the third general held the head of Zeng Er, the general defending the city, and shouted: "The enemy defender is dead, and you won't surrender!!"

Seeing that the defender General Zeng Er was dead, the soldiers defending the city no longer had the fighting spirit, and after one or two enemy soldiers threw down their weapons, the surrender spread like a plague in the battlefield, and more and more defenders threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground one by one...

At the east gate of the imperial city: Lin Gui battlefield

At the same time, Lin Gui's battlefield situation here is not far behind, the blood stains the battlefield, the horse leather shroud, the city wall has long been broken, the city gate is wide open, the soil outside the city has long been stained with blood reddish-brown, the blood is soaring, and the corpses are all over the field...

Not long ago, there were still sounds of fighting and shouting here, but the silence at this time seemed extremely hideous.

The soldiers cleaned the battlefield with their heads down, some helped their comrades to bandage, the righteous army at this moment, mixed with joy and sorrow, and disappeared from the soul, and occasionally the soldiers held a corpse, crying sadly, looking up to the sky and crying!

At this moment, Lin Gui stood on the city wall, looking at the entire battlefield, touching his heart, his deep eyes looked up at the imperial city again, he had mixed feelings, and couldn't help but sigh: "The voice is relative, the tears are sad, and the bones will be withered! How many families will not return!

"Generals don't have to be sad, there will inevitably be dead and wounded in war. Men of our generation, serve the country, and be proud of dying in battle! A general said

"How many people did our army lose in this battle?" Lin Gui asked.

"Lord Qiqi, Lord Qiqi, in this attack on the east gate, our army lost 30,000 people, seriously injured 40,000 people, and slightly injured more than 60,000 people..."The adjutant general replied.

"They are all good sons of the Great Zhao Kingdom! Order the military doctors to do their best to treat the wounded! No one will be left behind, even if I bring them here, I must take them back! If the treatment is not timely and my soldiers die, I will ask you! In addition, the list of the dead will be recorded! After the war, they will be given double pensions to their families!" Lin Gui said solemnly without pausing

"The general is so benevolent and righteous! He loves his soldiers like sons, and the soldiers will surely be grateful! He will be grateful to Dane! The last general will personally supervise the military doctors and make every effort to treat the wounded!" said the first general

"Now is the palace, the final battle with Chang Gang! It should also be an explanation for the many dead heroes!"

Retracting his thoughts, Lin Gui said in a deep voice: "Adjutant General, immediately send 50,000 soldiers to follow me into the palace, and the rest of the people will guard this place! No one will be allowed to leave the imperial city! Guard the city gate, not a single mosquito can be released!"

"Yes, city lord!" the lieutenant general said with his fists clenched, and hurried down the city wall, and immediately went to transfer his troops.

Several generals also retreated, and they had to treat the wounded, arrange defenses, and strictly guard the city gates!

In a few moments, 50,000 soldiers were assembled. Lin Gui took the lead, led 50,000 soldiers to the direction of the palace, and walked quickly.

At the same time, Li Nan, the town of Nanhou at the south gate, and Liu Yang, the veteran general of Yancheng at the west gate, resolutely led 50,000 soldiers to the direction of the palace, while the rest of the soldiers closed the city gate tightly, looking solemn and guarding to the death.

The reason why the three city gates are heavily guarded is because there are still 40,000 members of the law enforcement team in Zhao State, and it is estimated that they are rushing back at this moment, and it is also to deal with the traitors to escape so that they can deal with emergencies at any time.

The three directions are like three giant swords, sailing towards the palace... At this moment, in the imperial city, the aura of slaughter is getting stronger and stronger...
