Chapter 061: The Bloody Battle of Meicheng

At midnight, there was silence inside and outside Meicheng. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Not far outside the city, a fire suddenly broke out, which was very noticeable in the dark night.

The soldiers who kept vigil at the head of the city were so sleepy that no one paid attention. No one noticed that under the city gate, a large number of people gathered quietly.

At this moment, above the city, there was a sudden sound of a sword unsheathed.

One of the guards was the first to wake up, but before he could shout, his throat was cut. More of the city's defenders had their heads cut off in their sleep. A city guard lying in the corner woke up, saw his companion killed, and shouted frantically: "Enemy attack! enemy attack......

Suddenly, there was a panic at the head of the city, and the nearby city guards jumped up.

It's just that they woke up too late! The soldiers who attacked the dead had already gained the absolute upper hand, and soon, they were also killed one after another.

"Open the gates and welcome the general into the city. ”

It didn't take long for the gates of Meicheng to open.

Zhu Tianpeng took the lead and rushed straight in.

Fifty soldiers and one hundred cavalry patrols quickly followed, followed by more than 600 soldiers such as pikemen battalions and archery battalions.

When he entered the city, there were two people, one tall and one short, standing on the edge of the road with bloody weapons, and said loudly: "General Hu Niu and Li Shanying enter the city." ”

Li Shan is now the deputy battalion of the patrol battalion.

He took out his war horse from the patrol camp that had just entered the city, jumped up, and said to Zhu Tianpeng: "General, the last general knows where the city lord's mansion is, please follow the last one." ”

The capture of Meicheng had been planned for a long time, the internal affairs battalion and the women's battalion stayed behind in Woniu Mountain, and the four major war barracks and Zhu Tianpeng's personal soldiers, a total of 800 people attacked Meicheng at night.

A few days ago, Hu Niu and Li Shan successively brought fifty people from the Sword and Shield Battalion into the city. Tonight, he suddenly attacked, and seized the city gate in one fell swoop.

Now that he has entered the city, Zhu Tianpeng doesn't need to say more, Zhao Ji, Hu Niu, and Wang Laohu each led their troops to attack and kill, and Lao Zhu brought his own soldiers and Li Shan's 100 patrol cavalry battalion together and began to rush through the city.

He rode his horse in front, Li Shan and Yang Liu'er behind, and when he saw the deep-eyed and high-nosed Hu people, he slashed and killed them.

Galloping all the way, slashing all the way, until he rushed to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

Zhu Tianpeng straddled the horse and carried the gun, and rushed straight with a bloody killing aura. The guards in front of the city lord's mansion saw it from afar, and they were frightened, so they hurriedly retreated into the mansion and closed the gate.

Lao Zhu did not slow down and dismounted, only to see him lift the reins of the horse, jump up the steps, reverse the pear flower gun, and use a trick of "spirit snake swinging tail", only to hear "bang, bang" two loud sounds, and the two doors were knocked away!

The door of the mansion was wide open, and Zhu Tianpeng rode his horse and rushed into the city lord's mansion.

Previously, when the alarm news that the city gate was broken reached the city lord's mansion, the city lord of the Qiang people had already rested. After learning the warning signal, he immediately asked people to prepare horses, put on battle armor, gather his own soldiers, and just made preparations, but he didn't expect that the enemy had already killed the door!

Seeing the guards who hurriedly retreated to the mansion, the city lord shouted: "What are you panicking about? There is a door and wall to block it, and the thieves can't get in for a while......

Before he could finish speaking, he saw a young man break in with a rifle on his horse. He hurriedly took the hammer in his hand and shouted, "Come forward and kill him." ”

Zhu Tianpeng saw that the soldiers of the Qiang people were surrounded, and immediately accelerated, the pear flower spear poked forward, blocking left and right, and a move "Spirit Snake Fu Cao" opened the way forward, and then rushed towards the city lord of the Qiang people with a spear.

Seeing that the Han Dynasty was menacing, the city lord of the Qianren people did not have time to get on his horse, so he stood firm, held a hammer in both hands, and slammed it at the attacking spear.

There was a loud sound of "ping-pong", and the tip of the pear flower gun pierced the hammer.

Although the city lord of the Qiang people blocked the spear that stabbed him, he was forced back by a rushing force for more than a dozen steps. Before he could gain a firm foothold, Zhu Tianpeng had already jumped up in the air, left the horse's back, and pounced on him.

The city lord of the Qianren people had been on the battlefield for a long time, and knew that he could not retreat, so he quickly aimed the long-handled iron hammer at Zhu Tianpeng and struck upwards with all his might.

Although the hammer head struck the attacking spear, it was powerless. I saw that the snowflake-patterned spear head was gently wound around the hammer, and the hammer head was slightly deviated, and it quickly stabbed down.

When the hammer was not affected by the force of the shock, the city lord knew that it was going to break, and when he saw the spear stabbing down rapidly, his eyes were suddenly terrified.

With a "poof", the head of the spear stabbed into the chest of the city lord of the Qiangren.

The head of the spear had already pierced into his body, and the face of the city lord of the Qiang people still showed an unbelievable look, and when he saw the spear that had not entered his chest, he raised his head for a while, stared at Zhu Tianpeng deadly, and asked with difficulty: "This move...... Call...... What the...... Name?"

Zhu Tianpeng looked at the military general in front of him and saw that there was pleading in his eyes.

I thought to myself, since people are already dying, why worry too much? I can't bear to let him go with regrets, so I said calmly: "The fourth style of the Spirit Snake Marksmanship, the Spirit Snake Swimming Tree." ”

"Good...... Marksmanship!"

Although the city lord of the Qiang people was pierced through the chest with the head of the gun, he did not lose his breath for a while, and his face slowly showed the sadness of dying.

When Lao Zhu saw it, he said: "When you people kill people for fun and feed on people, have you ever had a disturbed conscience? I will kill you today, with a clear conscience." If you have such a ferocious cannibalistic habit, there will be a day when your race will be destroyed. ”

After Zhu Tianpeng finished speaking, he pulled out the pear flower spear, and immediately turned around, without looking at the city lord again.

As soon as the pear flower spear was withdrawn, a large hole was revealed in the chest of the city lord of the Qiangren, and blood rushed out like a waterfall.

The sadness in the eyes of the city lord of the Karma people was gone, only infinite horror, as if he saw that all the Karma people had turned into dead corpses, and the blood stained the earth red!

The City Lord's Mansion was taken over by Yang Liu'er and his own soldiers.

Zhu Tianpeng also stayed and did not participate in the battle in the city again.

Li Shan led a hundred cavalry battalions out of the city lord's mansion, galloped on the avenues in the city, killed the soldiers of the Qiang people when they encountered them, and shouted "to the dead army" when they met the soldiers of the dead army or the Han people.

"To the Dead Army! To the Dead Army!

In Meicheng, there are more and more people shouting "to the dead army", and the voice is getting louder and louder.

With the leader of the Xiang Death Army, the Han people, who were oppressed and humiliated by the Hu people, finally rose up to resist, and slashed at the Hu people with wood-chopping axes and kitchen knives at home.

Since Meicheng was captured, Zhu Tianpeng divided the patrol battalion into four teams and shouted along the road respectively, announcing that Meicheng was occupied by the dead army. He also ordered Zhou Mo to patrol the city with a spear battalion and began to quell the riots in the city.

......

In the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion, the seizures are being counted.

Yang Liu'er ran into the back hall where Zhu Tianpeng was located to report, saying that Hu Niu was a little dissatisfied with Zhao Ji's record when he put the seized materials into the warehouse and was making trouble.

It's not a trivial matter that there is a dispute among his soldiers. Lao Zhu hurried out.

Above the lobby, Hu Niu was slamming a round stone with a mace, and said loudly: "Look, this gray and black stone is so hard, it must be a rare treasure, how can it not be worth it?"

"Hu Niu, what are you fooling around?" Lao Zhu scolded.

Hu Niu hurriedly smiled and said, "General, the last general is not fooling around. Look at this calligraphy and painting, this string of beads, how rare it is! I entered the palace of the governor of Meicheng and snatched it out of the secret room. Lao Zhao actually asked people to register as 'several miscellaneous items'! I am literate, how can I let him come nonsense?"

Without waiting for Zhu Tianpeng to speak, Zhao Ji hurriedly explained: "General, these objects are indeed owned by rich and noble families, but they are useless to my dead army. The last general didn't want to accept it, so he asked Hu Yingzheng to take it back to play with himself, but he refused, and he was determined to evaluate the last general into money and grain, isn't it embarrassing for the last general?"

Zhu Tianpeng looked at the sundries on the ground, and there were indeed some good calligraphy and paintings, as well as a few strings of fine Buddhist beads.

The stone that was beaten by the bull with a mace was gray and inconspicuous.

He took the round gray stone in his hand and weighed it, it was heavy. The fact that the volume is not large and that it is so heavy indicates that the density is very high, and stone and iron tools cannot reach this density.

Then he asked Hu Niu: "This is also what you took from the secret room?"

Hu Niu replied, "Exactly." Look, General, are you still in this wooden box?"

The wooden box turned out to be made of red sandalwood, which shows that this gray stone was indeed cherished by the original owner.

An old official who was registering next to him opened his mouth and swallowed his words back. He was originally a clerk in the City Lord's Mansion, but he was forcibly arrested to do copying work, and he didn't want to do much.

With Zhu Tianpeng's keen perception, the old official noticed it as soon as he moved, so he asked him, "Do you know the origin of this gray stone?"

The old official trembled for a long time before he replied, "This gray stone was originally brought out by the mountain people from the deep mountains, and when they saw it, they presented it to the city lord." The captain of the city was obtained from the lord of the city, and he wanted to use it to build a blade. Who knows, the gray stone could not be smelted, and no matter how it was beaten, it would not be damaged, so the captain of the city guard collected it and threatened to dedicate it to King Anping. When the mountain people offered the stone, the little old man was also present, so he learned about this stone. ”

Zhu Tianpeng took the gray stone in his hand and looked back and forth, but he couldn't see anything famous. After thinking about it, he quietly mobilized a trace of true qi and transported it in, and that trace of true qi came back from the gray stone, and it turned out to be a little purer!

Such an inconspicuous gray stone can actually purify the true qi of Yuan Dan?

Zhu Tianpeng decided to take it for himself, and said to Hu Niu: "These objects are really useless to the dead army, and it is not wrong for Zhao Ji not to give an estimate." However, General Ben likes it very much, why don't you give it all to me, and I'll give you a gift in return, okay?"

Hu Niu sneered and said: "The general likes it, take it, what is the return gift, shame and kill my Hu Niu." After speaking, he turned his head to Zhao Ji and said, "Old Zhao, have you seen it? The seizure of my Hu Niu is the most worthwhile. ”

"Yes, if you can be liked by the general, it is a priceless treasure, and it is indeed the most worthwhile. Zhao Ji also smiled.

Zhu Tianpeng shook his head and asked Yang Liu'er to put away the gray stone and the string of calligraphy and painting beads.
