Chapter 1118: Overestimating Your Price
The city gate collapsed at the moment when the gunpowder of the Dongjiang Army exploded, and the huge explosion force almost collapsed the city gate hole.
After the explosion, Chen Jisheng immediately led the shield soldiers and rushed into the city. After a short period of stunned, the Yiren army also began to organize men to defend in an attempt to stop the charging of the soldiers of the Dongjiang Army.
The fierce battle unfolded at the small city gate, and the sergeants in front couldn't let go of their skills at all, so they could only passively push forward. There was no possibility for them to retreat, and the sergeants in the rear rushed forward frantically, pushing them forward involuntarily.
The command of the general was completely unnecessary at this time, and Chen Jisheng himself was also mixed in with many sergeants. At such times, even if he yelled in his throat, no one would listen to him. And Chen Jisheng is worthy of being an old fritter on the battlefield, he knows when self-protection is the most important.
Faced with such a predicament, Chen Jisheng chose to go with the flow, and then protect himself and crowd forward with other soldiers.
The sound of killing was unusually loud at the city gates, and the soldiers on both sides were strangled together, relying on their weapons to kill each other. War has always been cruel, especially such a cold weapon fight, which is extremely bloody.
Mao Wenlong led the rest of the army at this time to complete the landing, and the army that had completed the formation only waited for Mao Wenlong's order before it could rush forward. However, Mao Wenlong did not give the order for a long time, he was observing the fierce battle in front of him at the moment, his brows were deeply furrowed, and he was silent.
Chen Qi became more and more anxious, the battle for the city gate was very important, and Chen Jisheng and the enemy were strangled together, and it was the moment when they needed help. He couldn't help but bow his hand to Mao Wenlong and said, "Chief soldier, give the order to attack!" ”
Mao Wenlong put down the binoculars and said indifferently: "Wait, it's not the time yet." ”
Chen Qiyue suddenly became anxious: "Chief soldier, now that Brother Jisheng needs help, if we don't fight, they may have a lot of casualties." ”
Mao Wenlong said indifferently: "The city gate is narrow, you see that now they can't fit people, even if we rush over, we can only do it in the rear, and it will be useless in the battle." ”
Chen Qi was stunned for a moment, then quickly picked up the binoculars and looked, and sure enough, he found that the situation on the battlefield was just as Mao Wenlong said. It stands to reason that Chen Qiyue is also a veteran on the battlefield, and he will definitely be able to detect such a small problem. But he cared about it because he cared too much about Chen Jisheng's life and death, so he ignored such a small issue.
After seeing the real situation of tea, Chen Qiyue also calmed down, and waited with Mao Wenlong for the arrival of the best fighter.
At the same time, Dale, the deputy marshal of the Yiren in the city, was also worried at the moment. You can't see the battle inside the city from the outside, but you can see it clearly from the inside. At this moment, the Dongjiang army has gradually gained the upper hand, and his sergeants are slowly retreating. If the current situation continues, within a few dozen breaths, Dale's side will inevitably be defeated.
Once the city gate was captured by the Dongjiang army, the advantage that Nadal had before was gone. I thought that the Dongjiang Army had no hot air balloons, and the fortifications he had built before could completely resist the attack of the Dongjiang Army, but now it seems that all this is just his own wishful thinking.
The situation is not optimistic, and it may threaten him at any time, and Dahler begins to calculate his retreat in his heart. And now here in North Korea, his only retreat is Seoul.
"Come on, get all those robbers to the city gate to defend, and the rest are ready to evacuate immediately." Darle gave an order to his deputy, Skiff, in a deep voice.
Skiff was still so indifferent, and he took the order indifferently and strode away.
Dahler did not delay, and immediately rushed to the North City Gate under the escort of his personal guards, intending to go to Seoul from there.
The slightest change in the city did not attract anyone's attention, and the Japanese army, who had been driven by the Yi people, did not realize that Dale was about to run away. They were driven directly to the city gate and joined the melee with the Dongjiang army.
A thousand shield soldiers, under the battle during this time, have killed and injured more than half of them, although they have a good record. But Chen Jisheng also began to panic, and the excessive casualties gave him a lot of pressure.
For a moment, there was a loosening on the side of the Yiren Army, but after a while, it became more ferocious than before. Soon, Chen Jisheng found that among the Yiren sergeants, there were many Japanese robbers, and their unique costumes made Chen Jisheng easy to distinguish.
Wielding his sword and opening his bow left and right, hacking to death two Japanese robbers who rushed towards him, Chen Jisheng suddenly roared: "The general army is in our rear, and the army is still waiting for us to occupy the city gate." The pioneer group listened to the order and killed Lao Tzu! ”
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The officers and men of the Dongjiang Army seemed to be aroused by Chen Jisheng's words, and their morale soared again in an instant.
And there was soon a loophole on the side of the Yiren coalition army, because of Dale's order to evacuate, there were not many people left on the side of the city gate. Although the Japanese army joined behind, there were only a few hundred people, and in the face of the Dongjiang army, whose morale was high and they were fighting frantically, their resistance became more and more unstable.
"Woo......"
A melodious horn suddenly sounded in the city, and the echoing horn sound made the two armies that were fighting fiercely involuntarily temporarily truce.
Chen Jisheng looked up and looked around, he seemed to find that he had already killed out of the city gate cave at some point, and there were few enemy troops left in front of him, almost more than two hundred people. The more than 200 people are all Japanese robbers, and there is no Yi people in sight.
Such a discovery, coupled with the sound of the horn that was gradually moving away at the moment, made Chen Jisheng wake up immediately after a short period of stunnedness.
"Put down your weapons, Lao Tzu can spare you from death. Otherwise, there will be no mercy! After Chen Jisheng reacted, he yelled at those dazed widows.
Obviously, in this situation, those Japanese robbers have also understood that they have been abandoned by the Yiren army, and even if they continue to fight with the Dongjiang army at this time, it will only be a senseless sacrifice.
There is a chance to live, who would die stupidly, especially knowing that they have been abandoned. All the surviving widows did not hesitate at all, and surrendered one after another under Chen Jisheng's order.
At this point, Chen Jisheng's hanging heart relaxed, and after drinking the soldiers behind him to collect the weapons of the Japanese invaders, he ordered the Dongjiang Army to blow the horn to notify Mao Wenlong, who was still waiting in the rear.
Chen Jisheng knew that the Yiren coalition army had already run away, so he didn't dare to slack off, leaving some people to take care of the Japanese invaders, so he took the rest of the soldiers to chase after him with the sound of the horn.
