Chapter 176: Internal and External Troubles
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
At this time, seven or eight more county soldiers jumped onto the city.
People quickly looked around and saw that Liu Xiu was the only one on the city wall, and they didn't say a word of nonsense, some pulled out their swords, some took off their crossbows, and surrounded Liu Xiu one after another.
Liu Xiu took a deep breath, without fear, did not retreat but advanced, and greeted him with a sword.
A county soldier was the fastest, and he was the first to get in front of Liu Xiu, and the two of them almost simultaneously drew their swords and stabbed each other's vital points.
Liu Xiu's body flickered, and the blade of the sword swept against his side, but his sword pierced through the opponent's chest.
At the same time as he drew his sword, he kicked out the body of the Zhongjian county soldier with one kick, knocking a county soldier who followed him to the ground.
At the same time that the county soldier fell to the ground, two other county soldiers arrived in front of Liu Xiu, one on the left and one on the right, and slashed with their swords. Liu Xiu hurriedly jumped backwards, and with two dings, two long swords slashed to the ground.
Before his figure could stabilize himself, the two county soldiers picked up their crossbow machines, aimed them at Liu Xiu, and each shot a crossbow arrow. Liu Xiu also reacted quickly, and swung two swords in a row, and when Dangdang, both arrows were blocked.
The two sword-wielding county soldiers rushed to him again, still swinging their swords and slashing. Liu Xiu shouted, and while taking a step back, the horizontal sword parried upward, and with the sound of iron tools colliding, two balls of sparks appeared between them. Without waiting for the other party to collect his sword and attack again, Liu Xiu kicked out from below, hitting the calf of a county soldier, the county soldier screamed, and his body involuntarily rushed forward
Mention it, keep it in front of yourself.
Poof, poof! The two flying crossbow arrows did not hit Liu Xiu, and they were all blocked by the county soldier. Liu Xiu grabbed the corpse of the county soldier and pushed it outward with all his might, causing it to crash into another county soldier, one person and one corpse, and they all fell to the ground.
The county soldier who couldn't fall to the ground got up again, Liu Xiufei pounced, and when he fell, a sword stabbed downward. Burst! The blade pierced through the opponent's chest, poked out from behind him, and even plunged into the bricks of the wall beneath him. Seeing this, the four county soldiers holding crossbows in the back grinned secretly, originally they saw that there was only one enemy in the city, and they were quite happy in their hearts, they thought that he was just a sentry set by the enemy in the north city, but they never expected that this enemy would be so powerful
, killed so many of his own people in one go.
The four county soldiers reloaded the crossbow arrows into the crossbow machine, aimed them at Liu Xiu, and shot the crossbow arrows together.
The distance between the two sides is too close, and it is still four arrows in unison, under normal circumstances, Liu Xiu may be able to dodge, but now he has no physical strength, and his body is far less agile than under normal circumstances. He struggled to dodge to the side, but it was still a little slower, and his left arm was shot by a crossbow arrow, because it didn't hit the bone, the resistance was not so great, and the crossbow arrow pierced directly through the flesh and flew out, shooting two in front and two in front of his arm
Bloody holes.
Liu Xiu snorted, and her body rolled to the ground.
Seeing this, the four county soldiers threw away the crossbow machine in their hands, drew their swords, and went straight to Liu Xiu. When they approached him, the four men slashed at him with all their swords. Liu Xiu was lying on the ground, and the horizontal sword was parryed upward.
Dangdangdang! The four long swords that fell down smashed on the Chixiao Sword together, and due to the too great force, under its pressure, the Chixiao Sword was also smashed on Liu Xiu's chest.
The four county soldiers were about to put away their swords, Liu Xiu's arm suddenly rose upward, and a crossbow arrow flew out of his cuff incredibly, hitting the neck of a county soldier.
Burst! The tail of the crossbow bolt was exposed in front of the county soldier's neck, and the tip of the arrow poked out from the back of his neck.
Unexpectedly, Liu Xiu had such a killer feature, and the other three county soldiers were so frightened that they took a step back.
Taking advantage of the gap in their retreat, Liu Xiu grabbed the Chixiao Sword again, and a carp stood up, jumped up from the ground, and swept out with a sword.
Sand! The blade of the sword slashed open the lower abdomen of a county soldier, and in an instant, red and white flowed out and smashed on the county soldier's own feet.
The latter opened his mouth wide and fell stiffly on his back. The remaining two county soldiers both roared angrily and stabbed Liu Xiu with their swords.
Liu Xiu didn't care about the person behind him, and rushed towards the county soldiers in front of him. The opponent's sword pierced through his armpit, while his sword pierced through the opponent's lower abdomen.
Two people fell to the ground together. The remaining county soldier held his sword high, walked up to Liu Xiu, aimed at his back of the heart, and made a gesture to stab him with a sword.
Unexpectedly, behind him, a crossbow arrow suddenly flew over, impartial, and hit him in the back of the heart. The county soldier maintained the posture of raising his sword, his body stiffened for two or three seconds, and he fell forward.
Liu Xiu turned over on the corpse, lay on the ground, raised his head with great effort, and looked in the direction where the crossbow arrow was fired, only to see Jiu'er throw away a crossbow machine and run towards him quickly.
He breathed a sigh of relief and lay on the ground, gasping for air. Jiu'er came to Liu Xiu's approach, looked down, and almost didn't recognize him. At this time, Liu Xiu's face and body were full of blood, and the whole person was about to be dyed bloody.
Seeing Liu Xiu lying on the ground, motionless, Jiu'er hurriedly knelt down beside him and asked with concern, "Liu Xiu, are you injured?" Where did it hurt? Show me! ”
Seeing that Jiu'er was so anxious that she panicked, touching her body with tears in her eyes, the corners of Liu Xiu's mouth twitched, and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine...... Ay! Ay! Don't move my arm......"
Jiu'er grabbed his arm, and although he didn't directly touch the wound, he still wrinkled Liu Xiu's facial features into a ball of pain. At this time, Jiu'er finally saw that Liu Xiu was injured there.
The wounds left by the crossbow arrows were not large, but they were usually deep, and Liu Xiu's wounds were no longer a matter of whether they were deep or not, but directly pierced his arm.
Jiu'er looked at his wound, tears flowed uncontrollably, she pursed her lips, choked with crying, "You bear with it!" ”
While speaking, she tore Liu Xiu's sleeve open, then untied the water bladder and poured water on Liu Xiu's wound.
The sharp pain swept in, making Liu Xiu's eyes black, and she almost fainted on the spot. Immediately afterwards, Jiu'er took out the gold sore medicine and sprinkled it on Liu Xiu's wound.
Finally, she tore off a piece of her own clothes and bandaged the wound on Liu Xiu's arm. This series of movements can be described as a one-stop process, and it is definitely not something that has just been learned, and it must have been practiced many times.
Liu Xiu turned his head to look at Jiu'er, who was concentrating on helping him deal with his wounds, and asked with a smile: "Jiu'er, I don't know, it turns out that you still know medical skills." ”
Jiu'er carefully bandaged him, wiped his tears, and said, "Yan Guang taught me!" ”
Liu Xiu sighed and said, "Since Ziling taught you, then Ziling can also be regarded as your master, how can you call him by his name?" It's so rude! ”
Jiu'er glanced at him and said, "I still call you by your name!" ”
"That's different." Liu Xiu never cares about what others call him, but this doesn't mean that others are like him.
Of course, he knew that Yan Guang wouldn't care about the title, but Jiu'er was not the only one he and Yan Guang had come into contact with, there were many other people who didn't know how to be polite, and they didn't know when they offended others. After taking care of Liu Xiu's wounds, Jiu'er let out a long breath, sat down beside Liu Xiu, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I know, just such a little thing, you have to nag for a long time, it seems that your injuries are also."
It's really not a big deal! ”
Liu Xiu couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, he changed his words and asked, "How are Nancheng, Dongcheng, and Xicheng?" Did you repel the enemy forces? ”
"I don't know."
"Huh?"
"I've been looking for you, and I haven't paid much attention to the battle situation everywhere."
Liu Xiu sighed lightly, he supported the ground with the Chixiao Sword, and stood up with difficulty. Jiu'er hurriedly stood up, hugged him, and said unhappily: "You are all injured, lie here and rest!" ”
"Now is not the time to rest!" Liu Xiu said: "I have to go to Xicheng to see!" ”
Knowing that he couldn't persuade him, Jiu'er said helplessly: "I'll help you over!" ”
By the time Liu Xiu walked back to Xicheng, the battle here had come to an end, and the attacking county soldiers were retreating.
Seeing the bandaging on Liu Xiu's arm, Zang Gong and Fu Jun stepped forward quickly and asked in unison, "General Liu (lord), are you injured?" ”
Liu Xiu looked at his arm and said nonchalantly: "It's just an arrow, the skin is injured, it's not in the way!" What's going on here? ”
"The county soldiers have withdrawn, and we don't have a few people left." As he spoke, Zanggong pointed to the surrounding Green Forest Army and said, "Anyone who can breathe is here!" ”
Liu Xiu glanced around, there were only two dozen people around him, and all of them were injured, and two of them were seriously injured and had fainted.
He nodded and said quietly, "Everyone has worked hard! ”
"General Liu, we are not afraid of hard work! As long as you can kill a few more reckless soldiers as a backing before you die, it's worth it! The surrounding people said.
It is no longer once or twice that the Green Forest Army has fought with officers and soldiers, and almost everyone has good comrades, brothers, and even relatives, who died tragically at the hands of officers and soldiers, and their hatred for officers and soldiers is also the deepest.
Liu Xiu didn't say anything more, waved to everyone and said, "Go!" Let's go to the South Side! ”
The battles in the east and south cities are also over.
After a night of fierce fighting, the defenders of more than 400 people were less than 100 people. However, the casualties of the county soldiers were even greater, and the original 3,000 county soldiers, in addition to the casualties, could continue to fight, and there were only 7 or 800 left.
The sky is getting brighter, the sky is white, Liu Xiu stood on the head of the city, raised his eyes and looked out, just here in the south city, the city was covered with corpses, the blood was dry, and the city wall was dyed into pieces of black and brown.
The offensive and defensive battle of this night was fought too fiercely, and both sides were exhausted and unable to fight again. Deng Yu walked up to Liu Xiu and asked with concern, "Lord, are you okay?" ”
Liu Xiu shook his head slightly. Deng Yu looked out of the city and said: "In this battle, our side suffered heavy casualties, and the casualties of the county soldiers were even heavier. Just ......"
"Just what?"
"The longer this battle drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for us, and I am worried that there will be changes in the city." Deng Yu said worriedly. They had just occupied Chaoyang City, and the big families in the city couldn't figure out their details, so they didn't dare to act rashly, but once the war was prolonged, the big families in the city gradually figured out their strength.
