Chapter Three Hundred and Thirteen: Seize the Pass
Chapter 313: Grab the Pass
Li Shanbin, who has been restless these days, could hardly sleep at night. When he tossed and turned, he could only lament that people were in the world and could not help themselves. In fact, being in the court was even more cruel than the cruelty of the world. He could easily kill countless people in Bayankala, who were thousands of miles away. Countless good men in the Great Chu would be buried on the grassland and could not return to their hometown. When he thought of these, his heart would be bitten like an ants. But he was powerless to change, because changing all this, the first thing he had to take was his own life. If others did not do it for themselves, they would be punished by heaven and earth. He could only comfort himself in this way.
His wife and children have been away for several days. He was alone in his clothes and lay on the bed, staring at the candlelight jumping but unable to fall asleep. Therefore, when the alarm bell on the city wall sounded, he rushed out of the door immediately. As soon as he left the door, he saw several personal guards running wildly, with a look of panic on his face. "General, the enemy attack!"
For a moment, Li Shanbin didn't even react. The enemy attacked, and the enemy came? But the trembling on the ground immediately made him react. The loud shouts of killing in the distance allowed him to clearly distinguish the direction of the enemy coming, to the west, Dingzhou!
In an instant, Li Shanbin's mind was blank. No matter how countless Dingzhou might react in his mind, he never expected Dingzhou's reaction to be so direct and violent that it was actually the enemy's response to the city and the soldiers met.
"Prepare your horse and go to the West City!" He subconsciously issued an order.
First, Feng Ke, the captain on duty at Qixia Pass, who found that the West City was wrong, reacted very quickly. Without waiting for Li Shanbin's order, he directly ordered all the soldiers on the city to march towards the West City. He himself fell and rushed towards the West City. When he was hundreds of meters away from the West City Gate, he saw a scene that made him feel depressed. The wide suspension bridge smashed heavily and landed on the moat. In the distance, countless torches were gathering into a fire dragon and rushing towards the West City Gate quickly.
Xicheng has fallen into the opponent! Feng Ke made a conclusion in his mind. "Attack, grab the Xicheng Gate!" Feng Ke waved his sword and shouted, taking the lead in coming to the Xicheng Gate.
On the Xicheng Gate Tower, Zhong Jing steadily pulled the bowstrings, and as Feng Ke's running body slowly moved, he let go, and the sharp arrow made a whimpering sound, flew towards Feng Ke like lightning.
Almost subconsciously, Feng Ke waved his knife and flicked him. In a short while, he knocked Zhong Jing to a certain extent. The sharp arrow flew over his helmet and shot the red cherry on the helmet. Feng Xiang's hair stood up and looked up at the city gate tower. The three black lines in front of him were almost connected into a straight line, flying straight towards him. What a fast arrow, this was his last reaction. With a squeak, he hit three arrows in his head, chest and abdomen. Feng Ke fell to the sky and his body leaned heavily onto the cold city wall.
"Captain Feng is dead!" Feng Ke's death caused a panic, and the soldiers slowed down.
"Storm up and take back the Xicheng Gate, otherwise everyone will die!" Another officer jumped out and waved his weapons to command the soldiers to rush towards the Xicheng Gate, but he only ran a few steps and was shot and killed by the condescending Zhong Jing again.
Wang Qi gave Zhong Jing a thumbs up, turned around and ordered loudly: "Brothers, have you seen it? The time to support a stick of incense is ours. After completing this task, I, Wang Qi, returned to Dingzhou, invite you to drink and visit the building."
The team members laughed loudly. Although the battle was in place, they were particularly relaxed. With their previous preparations, it was not difficult.
"Bao Niu Crossbow, shoot me in the densest places in the crowd!" Wang Qi said loudly.
With a buzzing sound, the Baniu crossbow was as thick as a child's arms and crossbow arrows shot out with a sharp ambition. The terrain was narrow on the city wall, and the dodging lights were really small. The Bazhan crossbow flew past and suddenly a bloody alley was opened among the crowd.
At this time, a large number of Qixia Pass defenders arrived in the city, and horse hooves came from afar. It was obvious that cavalry in the city rushed over. Wang Qi looked at Zhong Jing on the city gate tower and knew that she was guarding the city. There should be no problem in the city. He made a gesture to Zhong Jing and hurried down to the city. The city gate was the key point. There were 150 guards in the two hundred special service members.
At the Xicheng Gate, the team members temporarily built a simple barricade with earth bags and some furniture and things. The eight-niu crossbow and powerful crossbow were placed behind them. These team members were well-equipped and equipped with the sharpest steel knives in Dingzhou, each with a short dagger and a hand crossbow. The soldiers rushing from the street were suppressed by them a hundred steps away, and they could not make any progress, so they could only shoot against them with bows and arrows from a distance.
When Li Shanbin arrived at the Xicheng Gate, there had been a stalemate here for a short while. Listening to the sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer, looking at the opening of the Xicheng Gate and the falling suspension bridge, Li Shanbin's face turned pale. The opportunity was fleeting. If he hesitated, today would be the end of the city's death.
"Cabinets, rush over to me." He roared. The few cavalry he brought were his personal soldiers. When he heard the roar of his general, he did not hesitate at all. The cavalry destroyed the horses and rushed forward. Crossbow arrows roared, and horses fell to the ground, and some directly hit the simple barricades, collapsing the barricades. The special service members behind had to dodge and dodge, and the rain of arrows immediately became sparse.
In one charge, more than a dozen horses and the horse knights fell down, and the streets were blocked by corpses. The subsequent cavalry could no longer charge. Li Shanbin fell off his horse, thrusting his spear in his hand, and shouting: "Life and death, and at this moment, follow me." He took the lead and killed him.
Teams of infantry erected their spears and rushed up.
The soldiers behind were even more busy dragging the dead horse to the street and opening a temporary passage.
The iron spear was swinging, and the special service members who came to meet fell one after another. Li Shanbin killed one by one and approached the city gate step by step. One hundred and fifty special service members threw away the longbows in their hands, drew out the steel knife, and roared to meet them. A stick of incense, they only needed to hold on to a stick of incense. Now, half of the time has passed, and when they look back, they can see the fire dragon that is approaching quickly through the city gate.
Wang Qi met Li Shanbin. As the director of the Operations Department, Wang Qi was so brave that he was completely brave. He waved the steel knife and fought with Li Shanbin, one inch long, one inch strong, one inch short, one inch dangerous. In this crowded killing field, his steel knife was more effective than Li Shanbin's spear. With Wang Qi resisted Li Shanbin, the pressure of the special service team members was greatly reduced. With the sword flying, he fought with the Qixia Pass defenders who were several times more than them.
If these team members were on the spacious battlefield, they might not be able to play a big role. Under the attack of the regular army, they would soon fail. But now the entire Xicheng Gate was in chaos, and the Qixia Pass defenders could not form a combat formation at all. They could only mess with the enemy based on the terrain, which gave the Dingzhou Special Service members, who had much stronger individual soldiers, had the advantage. What's more, the weapons in their hands were also extremely advantageous. Often, with a pair of swords between the Qixia Pass soldiers and the opponent, their swords were cut off, their spears were cut off, and then their heads were cut off.
But I have to say that there are too many opponents and many ants bite the tiger to death, and the soldiers of Qixia Pass are still slowly approaching the city gate.
On the city tower, Zhong Jing saw that the situation under the city was not good, and immediately turned the arrow and whizzed, and the soldiers in Qixiaguan in the front row were all over the place.
Li Shanbin was anxious and saw that he could not gain the upper hand. He was furious and threw away the spear in his hand and snatched the sword of a soldier beside him. He fought with his sword as if he was crazy and slashed at Wang Qi. It was a completely desperate fight, and immediately forced Wang Qi back step by step.
Zhong Jing stepped on the string, opened the bow, and with a whoosh, an arrow shot at Li Shanbin. It was also Li Shanbin's life that should not be defeated. At this moment, Wang Qi slashed at him. He shrank his neck and the arrow shot his helmet away with a loud bang. However, he was not injured by the frightened and his hands were slowed down. Wang Qi quickly seized this rare opportunity and slightly returned to his disadvantage.
Zhong Jing spat, reached out to touch the arrow again, but touched the air. When she looked down, there were only a few dozen arrows that had been lined up on the ground before. With a long roar, Zhong Jing pulled out her waist knife, held the knife in her right hand and the dagger in her left hand, and rushed down the city tower like a swallow, and went down the stairs along the stairs. When she ran down the stairs, dozens of Qixia Pass soldiers on the stairs were already in a pool of blood. And her body was covered in blood, but she couldn't tell whose blood was.
Li Shanbin slashed in succession, forcing Wang Qi to retreat step by step. While he was struggling left and right, a long sword suddenly stretched out from the side, blocking Li Shanbin's slam, completely following Li Shanbin's power.
"Wang Qi, I'll come, you go and block the others!" Zhong Jing said.
"Kid Zhong, be careful!" Wang Qi jumped to the side, slashed back, and chopped a soldier beside him over with a knife. Then he took a breath. Looking at Li Shanbin with his hair disheveled, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. As the saying goes, he is so stupid that he is afraid of being arrogant, and he is so arrogant that he is afraid of being desperate. It's true.
Li Shanbin and Zhong Jing fought for several times, and his heart was completely sank. Although his opponent was a woman, his skill was very rare. Even if he had a completely defeated both sides, the opponent still blocked it with ease. With Zhong Jing blocking in front of him, his soldiers were now killed by the big man who had just fought with him.
The shouts of killing sounded like thunder in his ears, and countless torches shone brightly on the Xicheng Gate, and the sound of horse hooves was close at hand. Li Shanbin looked at the Xicheng Gate several steps away, but it was as far away as the end of the world. It was too late, too late! He shouted in his heart, leaving immediately, if he didn't leave, he would die here.
With a certain thought, Li Shanbin turned around and left with a fictitious knife. This time he turned around, the guards around him turned around and ran away with him.
"Kill!" Outside the city, Li Feng jumped out of the horse with his gun and his heroic figure. He rushed over the suspension bridge first and rushed into the west gate.
