Chapter 98 Battlefield Strife The people are innocent

"Push!" Shen Zheng's second order was given.

The soldiers pushed their carts forward with all their might, and the carts pounced on the tart soldiers who had just rushed into the city with their bodies on fire.

The ropes on his body have long been burned, and his clothes and skin are being consumed by flames layer by layer.

Tart Snow couldn't bear the pain of burning his body in the fire, and he skewered around like a headless fly, which soon ignited the Tart Snow soldiers around him.

The cries were louder and louder.

Looking at the tart snow soldier who fell to the ground in pain in the flames, Jian Chen's face gradually turned cold.

Shen Zheng's soldiers saw that the Tart Snow soldiers were in chaos, and immediately rushed forward at the opportunity.

Seeing Jian Chen kneeling weakly on the ground, Shen Zheng stepped forward to help him up and said, "Are you okay?" ”

Jian Chen looked at Shen Zheng blankly, "General Shen, how can you?"

"On the battlefield, either you die or I die, blindly being benevolent and righteous will only lead to death. Shen Zheng knew what Jian Chen was going to say, and waved his hand to interrupt him.

Chen Jian looked at Shen Zheng's eyes, and suddenly became strange and cold.

"General Shen is wise, the city gate has been handed over to you, and Jian Chen has gone to help pacify the people in the city. His tone was cold and intimidating, without a trace of warmth.

How can I bear to see such a devastating scene.

"The first priority now is to resist this great army of Jeruph, and the people will find a place to hide and ignore them. Shen Zheng saw that Jian Chen was leaving, and said disdainfully.

"The scene is chaotic, and it's hard to guarantee that there won't be any tart snow soldiers mixed into the city-"

"The poison in the people has been cured, and now that the war has begun, the general will first drive Yelufu out of the city, how can he have time to settle the people. Shen Zheng was very impatient.

Seeing Shen Zheng rushing into the chaos without looking back, Jian Chen was very helpless.

Perhaps, I still can't get used to this bloody battlefield.

Seeing that Shen Zheng's soldiers had gradually gained the upper hand, Jian Chen shook his head and walked towards the city alone.

On the roads in the city, soldiers were occasionally seen running towards the city gate, but few people were seen entering and leaving.

Perhaps, the people are hiding in fear. Chen Jianxin said.

The Tart Snow soldiers who rushed into the city were in turmoil because they witnessed Shen Zheng burning people alive, and Shen Zheng's reinforcements met with the soldiers defending the city, and the number of soldiers increased significantly, so it didn't take long for the Tart Snow soldiers who rushed into the city to lose the upper hand.

Shen Zheng was in a hurry and forced the frightened Tart Xue soldiers out of the city gate, and then ordered the city gate to be closed and no longer took the initiative to attack.

Ye Lufu, who was afraid of being caught by Jian Chen and stayed outside the city, was very annoyed by Shen Zheng's behavior of accepting it when he saw it, "This turtle with a shrunken head only knows how to hide in the city and dare not go out of the city to attack!"

Yelufu was very strange, why had he sent the fine work to the city not moved until now?

didn't have time to think about it, he saw that his plan was about to be shattered, so he crossed his mind, "Since you don't come out, I'll fight you until you come out!"

Raising his right arm and shouting, Yelufu shouted to the tens of thousands of troops, "Fire dragon car, attack!"

Shen Zheng, who was standing on the city tower, opened his mouth wide in surprise at this moment.

Under the city tower, hundreds of carts were slowly coming out of Yelufu's army.

On the cart, a projection mechanism is placed, but unlike ordinary carts, Yelufu's cart is placed on the thistle.

The general thistle terrestris is a hand projection, and the projection distance and height are not far, but the tart snowman actually modified it and installed it on the projection car.

Although Huachen has a vast territory, there are not many ore stocks, and the manufacture of thistle terrestris requires a variety of ores, which is time-consuming and costly, so it is not common.

Tart snow is just the opposite, not only a wide variety of ores, but also a large amount of storage, and in recent years, tart snow has been fighting in the east and west, so for them, thistle terrestris is a commonly used weapon on the battlefield.

It's just that in the past, they used thistle terrestris by soldiers, and the lethality was very low, and Shen Zheng often defended the towering city wall and did not open the door to fight, so the role of thistle terrestris was not great.

Now, Yelufu has improved the attack method of the thistle, greatly increasing the range and height of the firetle, posing a great threat to Shen Zheng's city wall.

Shen Zheng didn't expect that Yelufu would actually think of changing the projection method of the thistle, and he was stunned for a while.

At this time, the tart snow army had already begun to move quickly and re-array.

The small, agile and agile soldiers rushed to the front and began to run towards the walls.

Hundreds of dragon carts, following suit, aimed their pushes at the castle towers to provide cover for the soldiers who climbed the city walls.

Dozens of soldiers with round waists and thick shoulders, carrying five stout logs, rushed in the direction of the city gate.

Sturdy crossbowmen, at the end of the vanguard ranks, shoot the defenders on the towers.

Behind these soldiers, there was an army of 50,000 under black pressure.

The siege soon began.

The soldiers climbed the walls, fell, and relayed.

Stones tumbled down from the towers, and arrows swooped down on the soldiers who were clinging to the walls.

The log slammed against the gates, making a roaring sound.

The thistles on the fire dragon cart flew towards the city tower with a whistling sound.

Everywhere I went, the red was sultry.

The sound of arrows breaking the wind, the screams of soldiers, the rumbling of hitting the city gates, and soon, outside the city gates, a different kind of battlefield lullaby was reminded.

Life is so small on the battlefield that it's not even worth mentioning.

Yelufu's attack on Sanping Town this time was determined to succeed, and his traveling army not only greatly increased in numbers compared with the past, but also was much better equipped than usual.

Although Shen Zheng's soldiers are brave, they are slightly inferior in numbers and equipment, especially the huge power of the fire dragon car, Shen Zheng has never been able to crack it.

Soon, the situation fell into a stalemate.

Shen Zheng was defending the city to the death, increasing his troops at the city gate, and the soldiers on the city tower fell a batch, and a new batch came up.

Waiting for work at ease, only defending and not attacking, made the feelings of the tart snow soldiers begin to be anxious.

Yelufu squinted at Shen Zheng on the city tower, and couldn't help but be angry. "Shen Zheng, you shrunken turtle, when are you going to hide!"

"I don't have the courage to talk to you! I have the ability to break my city!" Shen Zheng threw him a disdainful look.

Yelufu jumped like thunder, "Rush for me!"

The tart snow soldiers opened another round of attacks.

Chen Jian continued to wander around the city, and occasionally soldiers ran past him, all in the direction of the city gate.

Jian Chen knew that they were all going to support Shen Zheng, so he didn't care.

But, for some reason, he always seemed to have a strange feeling.

It's too quiet in this city.

Even if the people are afraid, they will not all hide in their homes.

Casually opening a door, Jian Chen was surprised to find that it was empty.

Where have all the people gone?

The suspicious look gradually deepened, and Jian Chen subconsciously hurried forward.

In a clearing at the foot of the mountain in Sanping Town, Chen Jian found the people who were missing.

They were all forced to kneel on the ground, and beside them, a group of people with weapons in hand stared at them.

Looking closely at their eyebrows, Jian Chen quickly understood the clues of the matter.

These were the tart snow soldiers who had infiltrated the city during the scuffle at the city gate, and they took off their uniforms, disguised themselves, and detained the unarmed civilians when the soldiers had no time to take care of them.

"Quickly tell Shen Zheng that if you want his people to live, open the city gate now, abandon your weapons and surrender!"

Beside him, a soldier passed by, heard the man's words, and hurried to the city gate.

Chen Jian hid among the onlookers, thinking about countermeasures in his heart.

The number of people who were coerced was nearly 100, and there were dozens of tart snow soldiers who held them hostage.

The necks of the people were all shelved with shiny sharp knives.

Don't be impulsive. Jian Chen admonished himself in his heart.

If you can't hit it with one hit, you are very likely to hurt the innocent.

For today's plan, I can only wait for Shen Zheng's arrival and act again.

Shen Zheng was directing the battle on the city wall, and he was unprepared that there were soldiers running close by.

"General, general, the people of the city have been held hostage. The soldier was out of breath.

"Hijacking?" Shen Zheng was startled.

"The man who came out of nowhere, and took all the people into the clearing, and said, "Let the general, the general," the soldier had not yet relented.

"Let the general what!" Zhang Chao picked up the soldier and shouted.

"Surrender!" the soldier finally finished.

Zhang Chao was stunned, he casually threw the soldier to the ground, turned around and said, "General-"

Shen Zheng waved his hand, did not speak, frowned, and looked at Yelufu under the city tower.

Yelu Fu saw Shen Zheng's expression, and the corners of his mouth raised an arc.

It seems that the fine work in the city has succeeded.

Yelufu's expression was full of pride.

Shen Zheng knew that this was another conspiracy of Yelufu, and he was so angry that he punched the rock of the city wall.

"Villain!"

"General, what should I do now!" Chen Zhongliang stepped forward, waiting for Shen Zheng's decision.

Raising his eyebrows and looking at Ye Lufu who was smiling evilly under the city tower, Shen Zheng sighed, "Vice General Zhang, guard the city gate, Zhongliang, you come with me to see the situation." ”

In the open space, Chen Jian looked at the people who were being escorted, and his body was trembling, and his heart was fluctuating.

Most of these detainees are old and young, women and children, what should they do to save these innocent people?

Suddenly, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.

Shen Zheng, accompanied by Chen Zhongliang, went to the clearing.

When the people saw Shen Zheng appear, they shouted as if they saw a life-saving straw.

"General Shen, help us!"

"General Shen, save us!"

Shen Zheng looked at the begging in the eyes of the people, and was very conflicted in his heart.

He has been stationed at the border for many years, and these people have already become his relatives, and now, seeing them being held hostage, Shen Zheng's heart is very unbearable.

"How can you be worthy of being a seven-foot man who wants to blackmail these people who have no power to restrain chickens!" Shen Zheng glared angrily at those people.

"Don't talk nonsense, quickly open the city gates, abandon your weapons and surrender!" shouted one of the Tart Snow soldiers.

"You want me to surrender?

"Then don't blame me for being ruthless. Seeing Shen Zheng hesitating, the man raised his knife and fell.

"Stop!" Shen Zheng exclaimed, his outstretched arms stopped in mid-air.
