Chapter 699: The Battle of Kangju King City (3)

Thank you for the tip that the knife is not as good as the god of the child!

Regardless of the opposition of his ministers, King Kangju insisted on the city wall where the battle was about to begin, and when he saw the king appear on the city wall, all the soldiers on the city wall couldn't help but cheer, and their morale was immediately boosted.

King Kangju came to the city wall, looking at the tide of enemy troops outside the city that was slowly approaching like a rising tide, and couldn't help but gasp, at this time, Du Qi, the general in charge of defense, anxiously persuaded: "Your Majesty, it's dangerous here, let's hurry back to the palace!" ”

King Kangju frowned, and said to the general Du Qi with a solemn face: "General, the safety of the royal city will be handed over to you!" ”

Du Qi couldn't help but be excited, and solemnly saluted: "Your Majesty, don't worry! No one can break the royal city! ”

King Kangju left the city wall, and on the way back to the palace, King Kangju heard a shocking scream behind him, and he couldn't help palpitating, and asked the palace maid who was close to him: "You say, can we win this war?" ”

The palace maid shook her head with a worried face, and then said with a look of hope: "Your Majesty, I believe that His Majesty's army of the Great Wei Emperor will definitely be able to help us defeat the hateful Kushan people!" ”

King Kangju couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that they are the only ones who are our hope!" ”

The battle of attack and defense around the Kangju royal city was quite fierce, the Guishan army that had learned of the changes in the rear set off an unprecedented wave of attacks, wave after wave of Guishan army ghosts screamed and continued to rush to the city wall, the city car hit the city gate one after another, and one was destroyed, and soon there was a new roof, the strong city gate wailed under the ravages of the city car, and the Kangju soldiers gritted their teeth and insisted. Although I was scared, I didn't want to give up.

Suddenly. There was a burst of cheers from the wall to the left of the gate, and it turned out that a Kushan army had finally reached the city wall after paying a price.

The Kushan army, which had climbed the city walls, quickly stormed on both sides. Intending to expand the bridgehead position, the Kangju army tried its best to resist, but the situation became more and more critical!

Just when the Kangju army on the left wall gritted its teeth to resist the Kushan army, the city wall on the right side was also broken through by the Kushan army, and the Kushan army continued to climb the city wall through the ladder, while the defending Kangju army was losing and retreating.

Corpses were already piling up and down the city walls, blood staining everything in front of them in a shocking mottled color, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.

A blood-stained Kangju will rush into the palace in a hurry, at this moment. King Kangju and almost all his ministers were in the main hall of the palace, and every man's face was full of sorrow.

"Your Majesty, we, we are about to lose it!" The general panted.

King Kangju and all the ministers couldn't help but be surprised, and many people panicked, and said incoherently: "Your Majesty, now we have no choice!" Surrender to Guishan! Otherwise, I'm afraid that both we and the king will burn jade! ”

Shi Yin, the minister who had always advocated the surrender of Guishan, pleaded urgently, and King Kangju couldn't help but lose his bearings

"Your Majesty. Do not listen to the fallacy of causes! If we surrender, we ministers may be fine, but the fate of the king will be very miserable! Prime Minister Kangju said angrily.

"Prime Minister, what do you mean by that?" Shi Yin asked angrily.

The prime minister smiled coldly: "Don't you still understand what I mean, a chaotic minister and thief?" ”

Shi Yin can't help but be angry. Pointing at the prime minister, he was speechless.

King Kangju couldn't help but ask Uncle Wang Kang Wenrui: "Uncle Wang, what do you think?" ”

Kang Wenrui frowned and said, "What Lu Yun said is right!" ”

Then he clenched his fist at King Kangju, "I ask the king to let me personally go to the city wall to supervise the battle!" ”

King Kangju frowned. Huo Ran got up and said categorically: "I will go up to the city wall with Uncle Wang!" ”

The ministers couldn't help but be taken aback. They shouted in unison to dissuade them, but King Kangju had already made up his mind. At this moment, another officer stumbled into the palace, knelt on the ground with a thud, and reported urgently: "Your Majesty, the left section of the city wall has been completely lost, and the third and fourth teams have collapsed!" ”

This news was not a bolt from the blue for King Kangju and the ministers who were already flustered, and many ministers couldn't help but look colorless and tremble uncontrollably, while King Kangju frowned and looked absolutely unpalatable.

"It seems that today I am going to be destroyed with this once glorious royal city!"

After King Kangju sighed with emotion, he immediately turned his head and said to the ministers who were shaken: "You all go!" I don't want to see you die in front of me one by one! ”

The ministers were speechless, silent for a moment, and after saluting King Kangju with a guilty face, they fled out of the palace.

"You guys, you softbones!!" Prime Minister Lu Yun scolded angrily, but King Kangju stopped him and shook his head lightly.

In the end, only King Kangju, Lu Yun, Kang Wenrui and Shi Yin were left in the palace.

Lu Yun said to Shi Yin with a surprised face: "I didn't expect you guy to stay!" ”

Although the words were not good, there was a cordiality in the tone, Shi Yin glanced at Lu Yun and said indifferently: "Since the king has decided to martyr the city, as a minister, of course I have to follow around!" ”

King Kangju glanced at Shi Yin with emotion, and then proudly ordered: "Palace guards, go with me to fight!" ”

The soldiers who had been waiting around for a long time let out a shout in unison.

King Kangju and Lu Yun, Kang Wenrui, and Shi Yin led nearly a thousand palace guards to hurriedly go to the battlefield, King Kangju was dressed in fine royal armor, and all the faces behind him were as heavy as water, and their eyes were full of unyielding firmness, and a kind of tragedy lingered in front of everyone.

Thousands of men were confronted by the enemy who had invaded the city as they approached the gates, and the two sides were immediately plunged into a terrible melee, and the image of King Kangju was extremely conspicuous, and the forces of the Kushan army gathered around him.

Just as the two sides were fighting, a Kangju army of about 5,000 people suddenly turned out of the streets and alleys on one side and attacked the Kushan army in front of them from the flank.

The Kushan army that entered the city was small in number, and after a few moments it retreated.

The two Kangju armies rendezvous, pursued them, and took advantage of the situation to attack the left wall of the city wall, which was almost already controlled by the Kushan army.

The two sides launched a fierce battle on the city wall, and the Kangju soldiers, who had been shaken, saw the royal banner of the Kangju king, and couldn't help but boost their morale, and launched a strong counterattack against the Guishan army on the city wall, and for a time they even beat the Guishan army with momentum to retreat.

However, the will to fight in a short period of time could not make up for the gap in combat strength between the two sides, and after a while, the soldiers of Kangju retreated and crumbled under the more fierce offensive of the Kushan army. (To be continued.) )
