The walled city held by the Jin army still resisted stubbornly.
There is a desolate hill more than ten miles away from the walled city, and at the highest point grows a large locust tree with two people hugging each other. Around the tree, a cavalry unit stood silently. Each knight was fully armoured, with alert eyes under his helmet, a lance in his hand, a saber hanging from his waist, and some carrying a horned bow and quiver. The man is strong and strong, and he looks unusually strong. The cavalry was surrounded by a large azure banner almost as high as the locust tree, and a vicious black wolf was embroidered on the banner fluttering in the wind.
Under the banner stood a black horse. The horse had a broad chest, limbs as strong as steel, and smooth skin that was dark and bright, without a hint of variegation. Riding on it was a Hun general about thirty years old. He was tall and had an angular bronze face. In the slightly narrow eye sockets, the eyes are as strong as electricity.
This general is the fourth son of Dadan Yu Liu Yuan, Liu Cong and Liu Xuanming, the king of the Xiongnu Zuogu Li. Among the kings of the Huns, the "four corners" of the left virtuous king, the right virtuous king, the left valley Li king, and the right valley Li king are the most noble. Liu Congshi was the fourth person in the Xiongnu Han Kingdom after Da Shan Yu and the Zuo Xian Wang.
At this moment, he squinted his eyes at a subordinate general who was standing in front of the horse with sincere fear, and asked coldly, "Are you all done?" โ
The general curled up almost like a gray rabbit on the prairie: "It's all over...... The villain is not half-lying. Then he lowered his head so deeply that it almost touched the ground.
Liu Cong led an army of 20,000 this time to attack the cities in the eastern part of the state. The troops were divided into six routes and advanced vigorously, and all the armies under his command were like broken bamboos, but this small walled city could not be won in two days of fierce fighting. This is an absolute shame for the invincible Hun army since the uprising. According to the primitive punishment of the Xiongnu tribe, it is not enough for the little Qianchang who is in charge of the command in front of him to die five times.
Liu Cong raised his hand to cover the peak of his eyebrows, looked at the walled city standing in the distance for a moment, and then turned his horse's head to the shade of the locust tree, avoiding the rays of the setting sun: "Let your people all withdraw." โ
The black horse snorted in excitement, and its hooves kicked the ground violently, whirling in place. Liu Cong stroked the horse's mane, and his gentle and soothing movements made the black horse quickly calm down: "Let my subordinates meet them, and hope that they will be as brave and good at fighting as you said." โ
The Xiongnu made four fierce attacks in a row, but they were all repulsed, leaving a large number of corpses under the walled walls in vain. Looking at the way they retreated this time, not only was the team scattered, but it was obvious that their morale had also fallen to a low point.
Looking up at the sky, 6 Yao fastened the armor on his body tightly, and said to the soldiers around him: "Let's go, it's time for us!" โ
The hundred warriors had not been in battle since they had been selected last night, and had rested for eight hours, and were in good health. The existing sophisticated weapons and armor are almost all concentrated on them. 6Haruka rode past them, and what he saw on their faces was a determination to fight to the death, a murderous aura that almost condensed into substance.
"Good!" 6Haruka was satisfied, and clenched the spear.
Another group of soldiers was already frantically picking up the earth and rocks blocking behind the gate. At this time, it was almost done, and the rest of the gate was opened without hindrance, and the three soldiers were carefully lifting the thick wooden door mortar.
At this moment, the soldiers who stayed on the wall suddenly let out a violent exclamation.
"What's going on?" 6 Haruka frowned and asked. But none of the soldiers on the wall answered. 6 Yao lightly lifted the reins of the horse and climbed the wall directly from a ramp. The situation in front of him made him gasp.
As far as he could see, boundless black-clad warriors poured in like a tidal wave. The sound of their footsteps on the ground was like hundreds of war drums beating at the same time, causing the ground to shake slightly. Behind the spears and halberds that stood like a forest, more than a dozen flags representing the identity of the Hun commanders fluttered high.
6Haruka felt as if his heart was being violently kneaded by a giant hand, almost bursting. He groaned in pain, turned sharply, and shouted to the warriors who were waiting under the city: "Enemy reinforcements have arrived!" Everybody goes to town! โ
The black-clad Hun warriors marched unhurriedly. When they came into range, the Jin crossbowmen began to fire fiercely. But after those arrows flew into the Hun array, they were like sand sinking into the sea, and not even a single wave was stirred. On the contrary, it was the Xiongnu archers' shots that caused great damage to the Jin army.
Under the cover of dense feathered arrows, the Huns approached to about 100 paces. They suddenly shouted in unison and rushed forward.
More than fifty ladders were built at the same time to the top of the wall, and the battle entered a stage of great tragedy at the beginning.
The black-clothed Hun warriors who went on the offensive this time, regardless of morale, equipment, and combat conditions, were far above the previous pursuers. The Jin army relied on the wall, and the number of dead and wounded still exceeded that of the other party.
6 Yao held an iron shield in his left hand, swept with a gun in his right hand, and flew out of the screams of the Hu people in front of him. However, this time the enemy was more courageous than the previous ones, and as soon as the first one fell, several people pounced on him like crazy. They were also far more equipped than their former opponents, almost all of them wearing armor and armed with the finest weapons.
Even though 6 Yao struggled to resist, after all, two fists were hard to beat four hands. In the blink of an eye, he was wounded several times, and his subordinates suffered heavy losses, and there were only more than a dozen people left around him to barely support him. The Hu people are still approaching like a tide.
A young man in a long suit shouted, "Lord, I'm afraid we can't stand it!" "This young man's name is He Yun, although he is young, he has been an old soldier for many years. His archery group is a powerful subordinate of 6 Yao.
6 Yao raised his foot and kicked He Yun down, and was about to scold, when a Hu man leaned in from outside the wall beside him. 6 He Yun couldn't look at He Yun from afar, and stabbed Hu Ren in the face with a gun in his hand.
This Hu man is also an extraordinary warrior in martial arts, and he waved his mace to meet him at the moment, and swung his spear straight away with a loud bang.
6 Haruka took advantage of the situation to dance a spear, and the spear expanded and contracted like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, and instantly stabbed it from another angle. How did this Hu man defend against such a mysterious marksmanship, the tip of the gun pierced through the shoulder blade. He screamed, still rushing forward. 6 Haruka's spear was still on his shoulder, and he couldn't move for a while, so he simply let go of the spear and slapped his shield in his face with all his might. Immediately, the man rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
He Yun had already gotten up from the ground, and his arrows were like beads, and he shot down the other two approaching Hu people.
6 Haruka just breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt the ground under his feet shake violently, and there was a loud sound like the sky cracking in his ears, and then thousands of people shouted in unison. It was mixed with a few desperate cries: "The city is broken!" The city is broken! The Hu people are in! โ
A section of the wall 20 zhang away collapsed yesterday, and what was supported there was a temporary wooden fence. At this time, the wooden fence had been completely overturned, and the walls connected to the two sides of the wooden fence had also collapsed, stirring up dust that was half a day high. Faintly in the dust, countless Hu people shouted and rushed into the village from the gap, the defenders of that section had already scattered and fled, and many people were slaughtered by the Hu people one by one in the screams, obviously unable to support it anymore.
The hearts of all the people in the city suddenly despairedโsuch a situation could no longer be sustained.
"Haha......" 6 Haruka smiled bitterly and threw down the iron shield, feeling a little relieved for a while. The hard and bloody battles of the past few days, the upheaval of these years, and the confusion of this half of my life, are probably going to be broken at this time, right?
But I heard someone shouting in my ear: "Commander, you give the order quickly!" We have to stand back! It turned out that He Yun turned around again, grabbed 6 Yao's arm and shouted.
At this time, where is the need for an order, everyone flocked to the wall of the village for 6 distances, and walked back.
Not far away, Chen Yi's roar came: "All the troops will kill the enemy with me!" Those who dare to retreat are slashed! "This person has always been timid and afraid of war, but at this moment he burst out with unparalleled courage, Rao is 6 Yao is still a little trance, and he has to admire. But Chen Yi's position was facing the broken part of the wall, and before the roar fell, dozens of Hu people came to kill. As soon as he put on a stance, he was cut into pulp by dozens of knives and guns.
The dozens of people with knives and guns shouted wildly into the sky, turned around and rushed towards the group of people and horses of 6 Yao.
6 Yao hurriedly said: "Hurry back, hurry back!" โ
A group of people fought and retreated, and walked among the ruins of the stockade.
On the way, he bumped into Xue Tong with a team of people. Xue Tong had already killed his head and face covered with blood, and he didn't even know where the family heirloom knife had been lost, and the two groups worked together. A small force of no more than 20 people broke through the walls along the way, taking the road and fleeing. At this time, many routs were scurrying like headless flies, which slowed them down.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of the intersection of swords and soldiers in front of me, and it turned out that Wang Wei was alone for some reason, and he was surrounded by several Hu people in the core of the fierce battle.
All of these Hu people use ring big knives, and the knives are heavy and powerful, and they are very powerful. In the blink of an eye, Wang Wei roared loudly, and he was already seriously injured. Seeing that the situation was critical, 6 Yao threw the spear with all his might, and the spear was as fast as thunder and lightning, and immediately nailed a Hu man to the ground. The other Hu people couldn't help but burst into anger, turned around and approached 6 Yao, and one of them jumped up in the air and slashed at 6 Yao's head with a "whew".
6 Yao rubbed his body and entered, and his right hand reached straight out, just holding the wrist of the Hu man holding the knife. He shouted with low strength, and immediately snatched the knife and stabbed Hu Ren in the chest with his backhand.
The rest of the crowd rushed to force the Hu people back, and several soldiers stepped forward to pick up Wang Wei and run quickly.
It's just that this time it inevitably delayed again. Xue Tong yelled: "Hurry up, hurry up, don't delay!" "Run.
After walking a few steps, I only heard the soldiers exclaim. 6 Yao turned around, but saw a lot of blood mixed with foam overflowing from the corners of Wang Wei's mouth, and a bellows-like snorting sound. With a long knife slanted in his chest, he saw that he couldn't live long, his face distorted by the severe pain twitched a few times, and he said bitterly: "I can't make it, give it a good time!" โ
A large amount of blood poured out along the blood groove on the side of the blade, and anyone could see that Wang Wei's life was rapidly disappearing, and the soldiers supporting him did not know what to do in a panic, and they used their hands to block it in panic, where can it be blocked! In the blink of an eye, the ground beneath him was stained red.
Wang Wei said in a low voice: "Don't toss, draw your knife." โ
6Haruka gripped the hilt of the long knife. Knife blood mark.
"Thank you." Wang Wei grunted, his eyes losing their brightness.
A few drops of blood splashed on 6 Haruka's cold side face, and against the bright red liquid, his face was even more shockingly white.
At this time, the Hu people had already slaughtered into the village, and there were whistles and shouts from all sides. The Hu people's advance was resolute and powerful, extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye a huge encirclement was formed, and the entire walled city had completely fallen into their hands, extinguishing everyone's hope of escaping.
Yang Yi's shout came from behind a house: "Don't panic the army, follow me out of the village!" Before the words fell, the sound of the blades intersecting loudly, and in the blink of an eye, Yang Yi shouted loudly, and then there was no sound.
