Chapter eight hundred and fourteen: deceitful city
Chapter 814: The City of Fraud
When Lu Xin received the news of the attack in Yingcheng, he was having lunch. With a clang, the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground and fell to pieces.
"How many people are coming?" Looking at the spy with a disheveled face and dressed in a farmer, Lu Xin stood up quickly.
"When I returned to the general, the villain only saw cavalry, about 10,000 cavalry. He attacked Yingcheng with a vast overwhelming force. At that time, the villain saw that there were already fires soaring into the sky on Yingcheng. He thought that the enemy must have attacked the city and did not dare to move forward, so he rushed towards Quancheng. Unexpectedly, there were enemy cavalry along the way and almost stopped." The spy was still scared.
"They want to close the news. By the way, since the enemy cavalry is attacking and Yingcheng is already on fire, it means there are lurking enemies in Yingcheng. Most of the time, Yingcheng is no longer protected. Do you know the news about General Li Shanbin?" Lu Xin asked.
"I don't know, when the villain left, he heard the shouts of killing from Yingcheng and shocked the sky. There were so many enemies, so I'm afraid General Li would find it difficult to protect himself."
Lu Xin wanted to ask again, and a series of alarm bells suddenly sounded outside, and the bells rang throughout the city. Lu Xin took off the war horse hanging on the wall and ran outwards.
"The enemy is coming so fast!" Lu Xin shouted loudly while running outside the mansion: "Come on, the whole army gathers, go up to the city, the enemy is coming!"
When Lu Xin ascended the city, the Southern Army was ready to fight. One by one, eight-ox crossbows pushed to the city wall, revealing hideous sharp arrows from between the battlements. One by one, a group of stone trenchers were thorned, and stone bullets were placed into the throwing arms. The soldiers bent their bows and arrows and aimed downwards.
"It's General Li of Yingcheng!" A lieutenant suddenly exclaimed, "General Lu is General Li Shanbin of Yingcheng, and there is an enemy behind them."
Lu Xin held the sword tightly and leaned over to support the city wall. He watched a big flag with Li in the distance approaching quickly. Four or five hundred defeated soldiers followed the big flag with Li in the distance and ran towards Quancheng. Many of them did not even have weapons. More people threw away their armor, spread their legs, and ran towards them desperately. A few miles behind them, flying hooves trampled on a snowflake and flying dragon, approaching.
"Can you rescue Li Shanbin?" Lu Xin asked in a deep voice.
"At the end, we will bring one thousand people out of the city, line up the city, and supplement it with long-range attack weapons on the city, so we can bring General Li and others into the city." The captain said.
"Okay, hurry up. Once General Li enters the city, you will immediately withdraw to the city. The opponent will be quick and beware of the opponent's chance to rush up to seize the city gate."
"The last general understands!" The captain rushed down the city. The gate of Quancheng opened, and a thousand southern troops were arranged in sequence and rushed out of the city neatly. Through the suspension bridge, crossed the moat, formed an army formation, separated in the middle, leaving a road for Li Shanbin's troops who were fleeing to enter the city.
"General Li, come to the city quickly!" The captain led by the Southern Army stood among the infantry and shouted loudly at Li Shanbin, who was fleeing with his armor and abandoned his armor.
"Thank you, Captain Hua!" Li Shanbin bowed to the Captain, his face was covered with scars and blood on the corners of his mouth. It was obvious that the two of them were familiar with each other.
Four or five hundred defeated soldiers stepped onto the suspension bridge and rushed to the city gate. On the city, the catapult began to roar. The rock bullets shot from the catapult with a range of miles flew towards the Dingzhou cavalry that was rushing towards the rushing horse. The Baniu Crossbow made a sound of crossbow roar. Lu Xin clenched his fists tightly, and the Changsheng Camp came, which turned out to be the Changsheng Camp of Dingzhou's ace troops.
The stone bullet was still in mid-air, and the neat horse team of Changsheng Camp in the distance suddenly exploded. It was like a frightened bird. It scattered everywhere with a loud bang, widening the distance. The knight immediately turned his wrist and small iron shields appeared in his hands, protecting the key points, and still galloping towards him.
Lu Xin's body trembled slightly, with such rapid reaction speed and such adaptability, as a veteran, there is no other language to describe it except being amazed. Fighting with such an army is everyone's nightmare.
The first round of attacks achieved great results. There were as many as thousands of cavalrymen in the Changsheng Battalion, but only a dozen were shot off the horse.
With a buzzing sound, the second round of shooting began again.
Li Shanbin rushed into the city gate. Behind him, half of the hundreds of defeated soldiers rushed into the city gate. The captain outside had already begun to order the troops to retreat slowly, but at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
Li Shanbin, who was riding on the horse, shouted suddenly, "Kill!" He shook his arm, and a spear in his hand shot, stabbing a South Army soldier in the city gate to death in the chest.
Li Shanbin attacked, and the faceless face followed behind him, and the panting defeated soldiers instantly turned into the incarnation of the God of Death. He raised his wrist and took out a series of crossbows from his clothes. With a whistle-shot sound, the Southern Army soldiers in the city gate were caught off guard and were shot down one by one. The murderous defeated soldiers rushed up to grab the weapons dropped by the Southern Army soldiers, shouted, and then rushed inward. Outside the city gate, another group of defeated soldiers with weapons in their hands also shouted in the moment when the attack in the front attacked, and one turned around and turned back to kill. The Southern Army soldiers who were slowly retreating with their backs to the city gate had not yet figured out what the situation was, and dozens of people had fallen to the ground.
One of the defeated soldiers jumped up, and two flying knives flew out of his hands. With two crackling sounds, the thick suspension bridge rope was immediately cut off.
Except for Li Shanbin, all of the other defeated soldiers were dressed in Dingzhou Army, and there were more than 100 special soldiers from the Flying Eagle Brigade.
Last night, Li Shanbin surrendered to Li Qing.
The sudden change made my lieutenant outside the city stunned, "What are you doing? You're so confused!"
Lu Xin on the city reacted much faster, and the city was in trouble, so he understood everything, "Li Shanbin betrayed and surrendered to the enemy. Come on, kill him, take back the city gate, Huawei, rush back!"
Lu Xin made a huge mistake in a hurry. He shouldn't have ordered Huawei to lead troops back to rush back. Lu Xin wanted to attack on both sides, quickly wipe out the opponent and regain the city gate, but he did not expect that more than a thousand people under Huawei rushed up to the city gate, and even blocked the city gate hole. Not to mention closing the city gate, it was difficult for the people blocked in the city gate to turn around. Both sides fought desperately. On the one hand, if they could not capture the city gate and the enemy cavalry rushed into the city, it would be a word death. On the other hand, they also knew that if they could not defend the city gate and let the opponent close the city gate, they would attack forward.
In the desperate battle, it is impossible to dodge. It is purely for life to trade life, killing life, and blood is seen in style. Every knife cuts down or stabs it out, it is a life, because you have no room to parry or dodge. Even masters like Li Wen, Tiebao, and Li Shanbin who are mixed in the team can only protect themselves without taking care of others.
No one shouted, because everyone gritted their teeth and stabbed the knife in their hands forward. The one in front fell down, and the one behind was crowded and went to the front line. Even if someone was afraid of death, he could not take a step back.
Wang Yan knew that this was the critical moment of seizing the city. He danced like a windmill in his hand to protect the vital points. Even so, several feather arrows were hung on his body. Fortunately, his armor was excellent. Although it was injured, it was not fatal and did not affect his combat effectiveness. At this time, one of the scattered cavalry rushed to the gate of the city with Wang Yan, while the other rushed along the city pool, bent his bow and arrow on the horse, and suppressed and fired the city.
When approaching the suspension bridge, Wang Yan shouted loudly, and squeezed the horse's belly with both legs. The war horse was leaping up under the crotch. When it fell down, it happened to fall into the crowded soldiers. The screams sounded one after another. There were several spears that killed the war horse's belly. The blood was squirting wildly, and with a whine, it fell down. Wang Yan jumped up, and a meteor hammer in his hand attacked from a distance, and one hit him close. In a moment, a piece of open space was cleared around him.
"Kill!" Wang Yanbao's eyes widened and he advanced step by step. Every time he went further, he killed one person. Behind him, the horse team rushed over, and the galloping horse team rushed to the suspension bridge and rushed into the city gate. Those who were in front were either hit and killed or killed. The horse knight in front hit the crowd under his crotch and stopped suddenly, and the horse head broke. The horse knight also flew up like a cloud and fog, and fell into the crowd.
There was chaos at the gate of the city.
"Clog the hole, block it, fight out, fight out!" Lu Xin's eyes turned red, and he waved his sword and shouted loudly.
But as more and more cavalry rushed up, the thousand southern troops of Huawei outside the city were gone, and the soldiers in the city could no longer stop them and retreated step by step. In the distance, the sound of war drums and the black infantry had already appeared in everyone's sight.
Lu Xin's eyes burst. Seeing more and more cavalry rushing into the city, he drew his sword in despair and wanted to rush down himself. Several personal soldiers dragged him tightly, "General Lu, the city gate cannot be taken back, retreat to the city, go to the Xicheng Gate, Xicheng Gate, organize an army to counterattack again, and take back the Quancheng."
Dongcheng collapsed in an instant, and the cavalry rushed into the city, rushed into the streets, and even a single person directly rode his horse along the stairs to the top of the city, chasing the soldiers above the city.
The infantry in the distance striking away and rushed over. The officer leading the team shouted: "Brothers, hurry up, no matter how late the meat will be eaten up by the cavalry. Let's eat soup. Let's eat meat."
"Wansheng!" The soldiers happily spread their big feet and rushed towards the spring city.
Li Qing stood under the flag roaring in the wind, laughed loudly, and the Quancheng succeeded, and the elite troops of the Southern Army entering Weizhou were destroyed.
In Xicheng, Lu Xin was finally unable to organize an effective counterattack. The cavalry who entered the city rode their horses and crushed all the counterattacks ruthlessly. As Dingzhou infantry rushed into the city, more cavalry rushed towards Xicheng. Thousands of southern troops in the city were divided and became fish on the opponent's chopping board.
Lu Xin was surrounded by dozens of cavalry, but there were hundreds of Dingzhou cavalry around them. Among these Dingzhou cavalry, Li Shanbin, Wang Yan, Li Wen, and Sun Zewu were all among them.
"Li Shanbin, you traitor, I'm going to peel your skin! Suck your tendons, drink your blood, and eat your meat!" Lu Xin's eyes burst. If Li Shanbin hadn't fooled the city, Quancheng would have failed so easily.
