Chapter VIII: Interception
Seeing that the torches around him were concentrating more and more towards the City Lord's Mansion, there were several Han army teams that were only two streets away from the City Lord's Mansion.
A thousand cavalry commanders ran up covered in blood, and said in a panic: "Lord of the city, if you don't leave, it's too late." The Han army that rushed in was more than twice as large as ours, and the brothers couldn't stand it. While the West Gate is not blocked, let's run from the West Gate quickly. ”
The lord of Seoul is extremely reluctant, and his family has been in business for three generations. How could he be willing to let him give up his foundation like this, but the sound of fighting under the tower was approaching step by step. Look at the outside of the city, there are also torches connected together, only the west side is still dark.
"Lord of the City, hurry up and leave, it's too late."
The commander of the thousand horses pointed down, and the lord of the city of Han looked in the direction of the fingers of the thousand horses. I saw that a humanoid monster had already killed a place only one street away from the City Lord's Mansion, and the heavy soldiers on the street couldn't stop this guy. Every swing of the giant axe in his hand would raise a large cloud of blood mist, and human life was harvested like wheat in his hands.
had to give up, and the lord of the city of Drinking Han stomped his feet and ran down the tower with the thousand horsemen.
Listening to the sound of fighting in the city, Yun Xiao sat in the carriage and roasted soybeans by charcoal. Put the brown soybeans in the pot, and put only a handful of fine salt without oil, it is the supreme delicious. Stir-fry for a few minutes to get out of the pot, so that a mouthful of soybeans and a sip of steamed wine in cold weather is the most comfortable.
This city lord of Han is really able to stand up, and he hasn't escaped from Xicheng after three hours. Three triangular nails were placed, and in the darkness there were village warriors with bows and crossbows everywhere. Far away there is a bow and crossbow. There are grenades close to it. Yun Xiao is confident that most of the Huns will remain, and the three missing ones are the traditional way of playing. If this city lord really has the courage to break through from other city gates, it will really be difficult to do.
Outside the other city gates are the Lingwu border army, and these guys have no combat effectiveness. Their role was simply that each of them carried a long pole with three or five torches tied to it and dangled it outside the city.
If the lord of the Han City really broke through from them, maybe he would really be able to rush out.
"Master Hou, the city gate is open. Someone ran out. ”
The goshawk standing outside the carriage shouted.
"What's the hurry. Blow the whistle three times to let the villagers be prepared. Just shoot freely, and leave as much as you can. We need someone to go to the Eastern Front to report to Da Dan Yu, otherwise Da Dan Yu will not divide his troops to return to help. Emperor Lao Tzu will let us continue to go deep into the desert, in that case it will be called really dangerous. ”
Every battle report on the Eastern Front shows Li Guangcheng's hard work from time to time. Liu Qi couldn't sit still. Even Huainan sent reinforcements to the eastern front. If only the forces on the Eastern Front could be transferred to the Western Front now. Then Li Guangcheng could breathe a big sigh from time to time.
Yun Xiao's idea was very simple, and the horse was sent far away. If he heard that a large number of Huns had returned, Yun Xiao would not hesitate to give up drinking Han City and retreat to the Great Wall. The ghost will be surrounded and killed by the Huns in this place, and there will be no one to rescue at that time.
Holding the crucible. Carrying a wine bottle. Yun Xiao got out of the carriage. Sit on a tall wheel. A sip of soybeans and a sip of wine watched the show.
There were two or three thousand Huns who escaped from the west gate, and they fled everywhere in a chaotic manner. Anyway, as long as they are out of the city, the Han people without cavalry will have nothing to do with them. Even if there were cavalry, the cavalry of the Han people was no match for them.
The fast war horse suddenly fell to his knees for no reason, and the knight on the horse was thrown out unprepared, his neck and head twisted strangely, and it seemed that he could not survive.
Suddenly there was a whooshing sound in the darkness, and the crossbow arrows were shot quickly and accurately, and the Huns were shot on their backs. With the firelight in the city as the background light, Yun Xiao could see very clearly that the quasi-heads of these townsmen were quite improvised. It seems that the mobile target training was not practiced in vain, and the Huns in defeat could only rely on their senses to shoot back at the place where the crossbow arrows came from.
But those Huns who dared to shoot back were always the first to be killed, and for a time outsiders turned on their backs. Constantly the Hun cavalry was shot down from their horses by arrows shot in the dark, and "boom, boom" orange-red flames rose into the air.
The man who was hit by the grenade fell off his horse screaming. Those who were lightly wounded were screaming and wailing on the ground, and many horses without owners galloped aimlessly across the moor.
The scattered formation saved the Huns, and if they had been in a dense formation, their casualties would have been heavy. A grenade can generally only blow up one horse, and the input-output ratio is not cost-effective.
It's not interesting, it's simply not fighting, it's slaughter. One side desperately fled for his life without fighting spirit, and the other side relied on the cover of darkness to shoot mercilessly. The villagers did not receive the order to pursue, they calmly used crossbows and bows to shoot the fleeing Huns wantonly. It wasn't until their figures were completely engulfed in darkness that they stopped.
The fire inside the city became bigger and bigger, and the flames could be seen outside the city.
"Goshawk, you go to Liu Cheng and ask him to organize someone to put out the fire. It's all fucking burned out, let's rob whom. Now every grass and tree in Seoul is surnamed Yun, and I feel distressed when I burn a little. ”
Yun Xiao has always fought wars for the purpose of making war money, and he has not been able to use war to feed war. With so many soldiers at home, the monthly salary alone will cost the old nose his life.
Some of the steamed wine is drunk, and some of it is top. Yun Xiao got into the carriage and wanted to be confused for a while, and the situation on the battlefield was like this. Just wait for the dawn to count the results.
The sky finally revealed the white of the fish's belly, and a round of red sun rose.
The bear woke up Yun Xiao, who was sleeping in the carriage, and poked his head out of the carriage. The gang of murderers has actually entered the city.
It seems that there was a big fire in the city last night, and Yun Xiao saw that many houses were emitting green smoke. Those Huns were crying bitterly, and Yun Xiao pursed his lips when he saw such a scene. What did you do when you robbed Yunzhong Daijun and slaughtered Mayi? Those Han people who were robbed and killed by you are worse than you, who have they offended?
It's time for you Huns to taste the destruction of their homes and households.
The city lord's mansion is magnificent, and the architectural style is influenced by Han culture. The difference with Longyou is not very big. The carriage drove directly into the open gate, which had been taken over by Batu's people and the three hundred townspeople.
Yun Xiao got out of the carriage and saw the angry Dai Yu at a glance, the first swordsman of Jingchu who wanted to make a contribution, who was locked in the cellar and missed the whole night of fighting. Now he was carrying his saber and slashing something, and even the dead man on the ground went up and slashed twice. (To be continued......)
