【Chapter 239】 The Broken City of Beautiful Scenery
"Kill--"
Under the moonlight, the north gate of Hugh slaughtered the city, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
In the wilderness, tens of thousands of iron horsemen with torches came overwhelmingly; Under the city gate, hundreds of small workers suddenly jumped out, slashed with their swords, and tried to seize the city gate.
In the city guard's mansion, Li Dian had just fallen asleep, and after hearing the shouts of killing in the city, he sat up suddenly, quickly put on his clothes, put on his battle armor, and strode into the main hall.
"What's going on, where did the shouting come from?"
"General Yu, outside the north gate, Han Sui, Ma Teng's army is coming, and the enemy army is lurking in the city at some point, and they are attacking the city gate at this moment!" Hearing Li Dian's angry shout, the captain of the personal soldiers hurriedly ran in from outside the door and hurriedly reported the battle situation at the north gate.
"Han Sui and Ma Teng led the army to attack the north gate at night? It's them again, it's really ghostly! It seems that if the lord does not destroy them for a day, my Wuwei army will not be able to live in peace. Li Dian was surprised, frowned and said angrily.
"What is the situation of the battle at the North Gate now, is the city gate still in our hands?" Li Dian asked.
The captain of the personal army took a breath and said: "The city gate is still in the hands of our army, although the enemy army is suddenly killed, and they are not afraid of death, but they have no armor, and they only rely on the courage of blood and blood to fight with our soldiers defending the city, and the city gate has not been lost so far." However, the Han and Ma armies outside the city attacked rapidly, and we did not have a moat in Hugh Tu City, and there was only a trench one zhang wide and three zhang deep in front of the city gate, and the enemy army attacked the city late at night, and the trench could not stop the iron cavalry from trampling at all, and the enemy army was already under the city at this time, and was violently attacking the city gate. The last general is worried that the city gate will not be able to be saved, and it may be broken by the enemy at any time, so please make a decision quickly! ”
"Humph! Resolve? Li Dian snorted angrily and said in a deep voice: "What kind of decision, can we still abandon the city and flee?" Don't forget what we're stationed here for, to guard the Hugh Slaughterhouse! This city must not be lost. The city is in the people, the city is ruined! The herald ordered the pro-soldiers to gather, and quickly sent a fast horse to the racecourse to report the news, so that Huan Wolf and Huan Leopard could strengthen the guards of Wubao and prepare to meet the two thieves of Han and Ma! ”
"No, the last general will take the order!" After the captain of the pro-soldier responded, he immediately turned around and ran out of the house.
Watching his soldiers go out to give orders, Li Dian strode out of the main hall and stood on the steps, overlooking the direction of Chang'an in the southeast. muttered to himself: "Lord, I didn't expect that Li's joke in the racecourse last year would now be fulfilled." Li Dian is not talented, and he is willing to repay the grace of the lord with this body, and swear to defend the city of Hugh to the death!
Han Sui and Ma Teng are really good at picking the time. On the night of the lord's wedding, he led the army to attack the slaughterhouse of Hugh. If the two thieves are not removed, my Wuwei County will not be stable. Tonight, Li risked his life. They will also be crippled, so that the lord can send troops to wipe out the two thieves in one fell swoop! ”
After saying these words to himself, Li Dian stepped on the yellow horse and led the five hundred soldiers in the palace to go straight to the north city gate.
He knew that it was impossible for Li Li to hear his words, but last winter, he did make a promise in front of Li Li. Swear to defend the slaughterhouse to the death. Unexpectedly, now it is time to come true, whether he Li Dian can guard the north gate or not directly determines the life and death of Hugh Slaughter Horse Farm. If the city of Hugh is breached, it will be difficult to preserve the horse farm. Sooner or later, you will lose. With only the tens of thousands of horse wranglers' families in Hugh slaughtering the city, the horse farm will be in chaos, and the people's hearts will be discouraged, how can they defend Wu Fort?
"Bang, bang, bang!"
"Bang the door hard, quick, give me more strength!"
Outside the north city gate, Ma Teng took the lead and rushed to the city gate on foot, under the cover of the giant shield soldiers, loudly reprimanded hundreds of soldiers who rushed to the city gate with giant trees, and continuously urged the soldiers to crash open the city gate with hoarse voices.
Two hundred steps away, Han Suigao sat on horseback, watching Ma Teng and three thousand soldiers attack the city gate continuously for a quarter of an hour, but he still did not break the city gate. Immediately, with a wave of his hand, he signaled to 500 soldiers with iron hooks to abandon their horses and attack the city on foot, hoping that they could climb to the top of the city with iron hooks, attract the strength of the defenders, and buy time for Ma Teng to break through the city gate. After his soldiers had set out, he again ordered 5,000 cavalry to approach the city wall, shoot arrows and attack them, and provide cover for the cornice-climbing soldiers.
After doing this, Han Sui frowned and said angrily: "It took a month and a lot of trouble to get in five hundred fine works, but I still can't capture a city gate. What a bunch of rubbish! ”
Yan Yan, who has always been taciturn, also followed Han Sui on the expedition this time. Now he stopped behind Han Sui, and after hearing Han Sui's angry words, he whispered: "Righteous father, calm down." General Ma Teng has done his best, and personally led the army to capture the city gate, and his courage is commendable. However, the Wuwei army was indeed well-trained, and as soon as our army launched an attack, the defenders on the head of the city reacted quickly, and arrows, rolling logs, stones and other defensive objects fell one after another. In this way, tonight's siege battle is afraid that it will not go as smoothly as we expected in advance, and even if we capture this city, we may not suffer fewer casualties among our own soldiers. Father-in-law, 20,000 soldiers in this 30,000-strong army are our Jincheng soldiers and horses, if there are heavy casualties, I am afraid of ??????"
"Uh, what does Yan Ming mean by that? Do you want to preserve your father's strength and let the 10,000 soldiers and horses under Ma Teng's command attack the city alone? Han Sui groaned in slight surprise.
Yan Yan said cautiously: "Father-in-law Mingjian." I know that my father-in-law hates Li Li'er and his Wuwei army to the core, and wants to get rid of them as soon as possible. However, the intention of harming others is indispensable, and the desire to guard against others is indispensable. The father-in-law went out to the Wuwei army twice before, and the soldiers and horses suffered huge losses, but now it is more appropriate to preserve some strength. Although there are many war horses in the Hugh Slaughterhouse, these war horses have to be divided equally between the two families, and there will not be too many war horses that are really distributed to us.
What's more, the strength of the Wuwei Army is still there, and Li Li is not dead. Once Li Li Xingbing takes revenge, then our Jincheng will bear the brunt of it, and we must resist Li Li's anger head-on. Who let us be so close to Wuwei County, but Ma Teng's foundation is hundreds of miles away, and when the time comes, Yuanshui will not be able to save the near fire, but I am afraid that my father-in-law will have to face the Wuwei army led by Li Li alone. If this is the case, our Jincheng County is in a worrying situation, and it is difficult to support it alone! ”
"Well, what Yan Ming said is very true. My father just now only cared about sending troops to attack the city, but ignored the existence of Li Li's army, fortunately, it was not too late for you to remind me. In this case, my father is here to watch Ma Shoucheng attack the city, and if he has not broken through the city gate later, he will leave him with 7,000 Ma family troops and send them all, as for the 15,000 war cavalry under our command for the time being. It's a pity, just now my father was impulsive and sent out 5,000 iron cavalry and 500 personal soldiers, otherwise we would not have lost a single soldier, waiting for the Ma family army to break through the city gate and reap the benefits of the fisherman! Han Sui said with annoyance.
Yan Yan comforted: "Father-in-law doesn't have to worry. Our army's 5,000 iron cavalry is just a roaming and riding close to the city wall, and there will not be many soldiers and horses, but the 500 personal soldiers sent out by my father-in-law are afraid that they will not be able to come back. ”
Hearing this, a trace of regret flashed in Han Sui's eyes, and he shook his head and said: "This time, my father and Ma Shoucheng joined forces to attack at night, if there were no soldiers and horses at all, wouldn't it make him suspicious." That's it, it's cost-effective to lose 500 pro-soldiers just to block Ma Shoucheng's mouth. ”
Inside the city gate, Li Dian led 500 personal soldiers to arrive just in time when the city gate was crumbling. Immediately, he rode his horse and swung his sword into the city gate, and anyone who did not wear armor was the enemy's meticulous work. In the left and right folds, he can cut off two thin human heads with every slash, and he is unstoppable.
Suddenly, with Li Dian rushing to the front, the morale of the defenders was greatly shaken, but the hundreds of fine workers were drastically reduced. In the blink of an eye, only more than 200 fine workers were still resisting, but they were also getting closer and closer to the city gate, and the threat to the city gate was huge. The slightest carelessness will allow them to succeed, and by then the general trend will be gone, and there will be no way back.
Seeing this, Li Dian disregarded his personal safety, galloped on his horse, flew with a big sword in his hand, and rushed straight to the city gate.
The general is the courage of the soldiers. Li Dian's desperate fight made the soldiers who followed him more and more courageous, and they moved forward bravely, breaking through the blocking formation of the fine work, and squeezing the remaining more than 200 fine works to the corner of the city gate, encircling and slashing.
In a matter of moments, the casualties were lost, but the gates were still not breached. At this point, Li Dian breathed a long sigh of relief, and immediately ordered his soldiers to move the boulder as soon as possible and block the city gate. Immediately, he handed over his horse to his own soldiers and climbed to the top of the city on foot, trying to command the soldiers defending the city to defend the city.
"Bang--"
However, the moment Li Dian landed on the top of the city, he heard a loud bang.
Suddenly, Li Dian only felt that his mind was blank, and his figure was lying crookedly on the female wall. He knew what the loud bang meant, the city gate was knocked down, and the Han Ma army rushed into the city.
Li Dian originally thought that the soldiers should have time to carry big stones to block the city gate, but he didn't expect the city gate to be broken by the enemy so quickly. There were 30,000 Han horses and iron horsemen outside the city, and Hugh slaughtered the city after all, and the city was broken??????
――――――――――――――――
"Ahh
The same scream of pain sounded in Li Li's room in the backyard of Long Xiang Li's mansion, but this scream was filled with a bit of joy and a bit of bewildering charm. Moreover, this was not the first cry of pain coming from Li Li's room, but the third.
In the hour before that, there were two identical screams of pain, followed by moans of bitter pleasure. The moans were incessant, incessant, and had been stirring in the backyard for nearly two hours.
In the room, the lights have been out for a long time.
On a large soft couch that occupies an entire wall, several entangled figures faintly stand out. One of them was extremely broad and muscular, hunched over and slowly moving, with a low roar coming from his throat. Obviously, he has been working hard for a long time, and he has exhausted his physical strength, but he is still excited, and he has not stopped. Just like the hard-working bull, turning over two pieces of cooked land, and then carefully cultivating new fertile soil, expanding little by little, very patient, hard-working, and never tired of it.
