Chapter 11: The Return (2)

At this moment, the soldiers outside Luoyang City are like a mountain, and the city is already in chaos. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Everyone originally thought that the Yasukuni Army would be able to resist the Tatar army, but in less than half a month, the army was defeated in Taiyuan and withdrew to Luoyang. Now the Han armies of all parties have rebelled and surrendered to the Tatars, and the coalition forces of various countries have broken through several cities and approached Luoyang. In this situation of no external aid and insufficient domestic demand, it is only a matter of time before Luoyang breaks the city.

......

At the main altar of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, many masters gathered together, and even Li Tan, Wang Chong and others rushed to help.

The people in the lobby are divided into two parties, one side is the Jianghu forces led by Concern and Tong Xiang, and the other side is the Fanmen forces led by Long Jun and Ding Yi.

This is not the first time that the two sides have met, but the atmosphere is still a little stiff, all for the sake of this military arrangement.

The Heavenly Dao Alliance believed that it should move its position as soon as possible and evacuate to the southwest, but the Fanmen side was unwilling to abandon the city and leave. As a result, the two sides have been arguing endlessly and have not made a decision.

"Brother Tong, Miss Guan, now that the soldiers are coming to the city, if you don't make a decision early, when the Tatar barbarians attack the city, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

Long Junqiang held back his anger and put forward his idea again.

Guan Xin is not good at military affairs, so he did not speak.

Tong Xiang frowned and said: "Brother Long Jun, it's not that we are greedy for life and afraid of death, but now that the Seven Kingdoms are united, it is unwise to fight hard with them, Brother Tie has led his people to the frontier, I believe that news will come soon, as long as we preserve our strength, when the time comes, we will be able to make a comeback and drive the foreign barbarians out of the Central Plains." ”

"Humph!"

Ding Yi took over coldly and said: "The Tatar barbarians are fierce and cruel, we abandon the city and go, what should the people here do?"

Everyone couldn't help but sigh secretly when they heard this, they also knew very well about the Tatar massacre, especially the Fanmen side, who had personally experienced the pain of breaking the city, so every time they evacuated, they would bring the people in the city to march together, resulting in every defeat, the Yasukuni Army suffered heavy casualties, if it were not for the help of many Heavenly Dao masters, I am afraid that few people in the Yasukuo Army would be able to withdraw to Luoyang alive.

Tong Xiang understood what the other party thought, if he could, he was not willing to abandon the city, after all, this was the main altar of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and it was also the place where he had worked hard for many years. However, he was worried that if he evacuated with a large number of people, not to mention whether it would succeed, it would be a troublesome problem just how to settle these people, because they would not be able to provide so much food for so many people.

Sighing, Tong Xiang was puzzled: "Long Jun, Ding Yi, do you think I am the kind of cold-blooded and ruthless person? If I really want to kill the enemy, I, Tong Xiang, will definitely not be left behind...... But have you ever thought that now that the Seven Kingdoms are united, not only the number of troops is as high as 3 million, but also there are many Heavenly Dao masters to help us, we will not be able to defend Luoyang at all, and when the time comes, the people in the city will inevitably face even more cruel retaliation. ”

After a pause, Tong Xiang continued: "Don't talk about retreating 10,000, as long as you preserve your strength, you will have the hope of recovering the rivers and mountains." If you, us, and everyone all die here, who will save the land of my Shenzhou? Who will expel the foreign barbarians, we are now weak, and I am afraid that we will not be able to do it alone!"

Hearing this, the crowd fell silent.

I have to say that Tong Xiang's words are indeed very reasonable, the torch can be passed on from generation to generation, if even the fire is extinguished, it will be endless darkness. The reason is very simple, and Long Jun and the others understand it, but they can't accept the plan to abandon the city no matter what. Didn't they just protect the people just because they had been guarding the border for 10 years? They still remembered that Li Yuefan told them that they were not guarding the Ming Dynasty, but the tens of millions of compatriots behind them. Now that the people are suffering, how can they ignore it.

Both sides have their own reasons, and they have been arguing for a long time but have not been able to reach a consensus.

Just when the atmosphere was deadlocked, a report suddenly came from outside.

"Tell the two alliance lords, the Tatar barbarian war drums are thundering, and the army is already approaching the city. ”

"What!?"

When everyone heard the news, their faces changed greatly.

"Let's go, go to the castle tower ......"

Long Jun and the others got up and rushed away.

"It's a big deal to fight with them. ”

When Ding Yi left, he didn't forget to turn around and glared at Tong Xiang fiercely.

"Could it be...... Am I really wrong?"

Tong Xiang's face was depressed, and he was depressed and uncomfortable.

Guan Xin didn't say much, glanced at Tong Xiang, and then chased after Long Jun and the others.

In the rivers and lakes, there have always been happy and vengeful people, and they are not hot-blooded, with Guan Xin taking the lead, the rest of the people left and flew to the direction of the city tower.

Everyone left, and only Tong Xiang and other henchmen were left in the lobby.

Ning Wanqian stepped forward and put her arm on Tong Xiang's shoulder and said: "I don't blame you for this, you are not wrong, and they are not wrong, it's just that we all have different ideas, I believe that if Brother Tie is here, he will also decide so." ”

"Where righteousness is, there is no regret in death......"

Eight words suddenly appeared in Tong Xiang's mind, this is what Iron Blood told him back then, but after many years, he almost forgot what blood is and what righteousness is, and now his blood is gradually cooling, and he thinks about the overall situation in everything, but ignores the feelings of others.

Wrong, I really was wrong.

Tong Xiang smiled dryly, and the emotions that had been suppressed for many years came to his heart.

"Let's go, we'll go too. ”

"Good. ”

Seeing that Tong Xiang had figured it out, Ning Wanqian nodded seriously and showed a sweet smile.

......

――――――――――――

On the tower of the city, all the soldiers were tense and ready for battle.

Seeing the Tatar army approaching little by little, the atmosphere on the city tower gradually became tense, and many soldiers were sweating like rain. I haven't experienced the feeling of thousands of troops and horses, how can I experience the feeling of being dead and lifeless.

Zhang Fengyi sat on the military platform, with a pair of children on his side and daughters, and everyone's face was full of determination to fight to the death.

"Poof!"

In the corner of the tower, an arrow was shot, turning into a cold streamer and heading straight to the center of the Tatar army.

"Ahh

With a scream, a famous town flag general fell off his horse and died immediately.

This sudden arrow caught the Tatar army by surprise, and there was a brief moment of confusion, and then the army stopped.

......

In the rear of the Tatar army, Dorgon led the generals to slowly advance.

Next to them, Zhao Qianjin, Zhu Kangjing and other Heavenly Dao masters watched from a distance, and their expressions were quite solemn.

Now that the Huwei Army and the Tatar army are united, the strength of the army is definitely better than any period, but the Yasukuni Army is a hard bone, and it is not so easy to gnaw it, not to mention, now that there is the help of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, if it cannot be suppressed strongly, the consequences are really unpredictable.

No one would understand the strength and potential threats of the Heavenly Dao Alliance better than Zhu Kangjing, a Heavenly Dao master. In just a short period of time, hundreds of masters have gathered, and if it is a few years later, this force will definitely be able to compete with any side in the cultivation world.

Just as everyone was groaning, a cold light flashed on the city wall, shooting into the heart of the army, causing a commotion.

"Stop!"

At Dorgon's command, the army halted.

"It's also a powerful arrow, and no one can stop it within a thousand feet. ”

Hearing Dol Roll's comment, the faces of the surrounding soldiers changed. No warrior could tolerate his commander boasting in front of him about the strength of his enemy.

Many of them were about to volunteer and go into battle, but they were frightened back by Dorgon's cold gaze.

Zhu Kangjing glanced at the city tower in front of him, and said lightly: "Presumably that is the marksman that the regent often mentions, right?"

"That's right......" Dolgon nodded and said, "This person's name is Tu Lei, and his cultivation has reached the realm of Innate Mahayana, although he is congenital, but the arrows he shoots are difficult for even Heavenly Dao masters to parry." Don't underestimate this person, every time our army attacks the city, it will lose a lot of generals, and even the fall of the Heavenly Dao, the master Tian and Mao died in the hands of this person, and even the master of Tianfeng was injured by this person. ”

"Oh!"

Hearing this, the Heavenly Dao master on Zhu Kangjing's side suddenly turned unnatural. Tian Feng and Mao Feng are just monks in the initial realm of the Heavenly Dao, and they are nothing in the eyes of others, but Master Tianfeng is different, he was a master of the peak of the middle realm of the Heavenly Dao decades ago, and one foot has stepped into the upper realm of the Heavenly Dao, but he didn't expect such a character to be injured by the one named Tu Lei. If Tu Lei is a master of the Heavenly Dao, it would be fine, but the other party is only an innate realm, and he is not even a monk, so it can be seen that this person is indeed not to be underestimated.

Zhu Kangjing's expression was indifferent, and he didn't move at all.

Seeing that Zhu Kangjing was unmoved, Dolgon's eyes flashed with disappointment. He wanted to instigate Zhu Kangjing's side to strike first, but unfortunately the other party was also cunning, how could he be fooled.

Immediately, Dolgon turned to Zhao Qianjin and said respectfully: "The army is on standby at any time, and I also ask the door master to signal." ”

Zhao Qianjin bowed his head slightly and said: "The march and battle are up to you, but this battle involves Heavenly Dao monks, and it is not appropriate for the army to ......go first."

"That ......"

"It doesn't matter, there are only a few masters on the other side, since this is the case, this seat and Brother Zhu will personally go up to suppress it for you, and after their Heavenly Dao masters are contained, you will order the army to break through the city. ”

"Dolgon commanded. ”
