Chapter 103: Happy New Year

Chen Xi saw Zhang Rang's face exposed to the firelight, and looked behind him again, only to see that there were a few powerful armor soldiers, but he didn't see other permanent attendants, so he asked, "Just you?" What about the others? Let's come out together! ”

With a murderous aura in his words, in the Northern Regions, the momentum of deciding the life and death of tens of millions of people in one word, Zhang Rang instantly wanted to retreat, but thinking about the consequences, he didn't care anymore.

Zhang Rang's cheeks twitched, and then he sneered: "Chen Liaozhou still let the queen mother, and then it is good to be captured, you are a scribe, so as not to hurt you or the queen and prince in a while." ”

Chen Xi smiled and said, "What does Zhongshu Ling mean?" Now that there is chaos in Beijing, and the powerful ministers are supporting the army, do you and I still want to kill each other? Aren't you afraid that the snipe and the clam will compete with each other and the fisherman will profit? ”

Facing Chen Xi's questioning, Zhang Rangpi said with a smile: "Chen Liaozhou thinks too much. ”

Seeing him say this, he and Guo Jia glanced at each other, both of them knew that this was the worst situation, fortunately, there was also a pre-shore, besides, it didn't need to be supported for long, at most three days, the reinforcements would arrive, Chen Xi sighed and said, "Can you not do it?" ”

Zhang Rang sneered and said, "What do you say? I advise Chen Liaozhou and Guo Changshi not to resist stubbornly, and we naturally have hospitality. ”

Chen Xi suddenly looked in a direction at this time, and then suddenly laughed, and said: "I understand the kindness of Zhongshu Ling, then you can die more comfortably." ”

Zhang Rang only felt a huge danger, and at this time, his face changed suddenly, and he shouted in a sharp voice: "Up! Kill them! ”

A dark shadow in the dark, where no one could see, had already drawn its bow in his hand, and as soon as he took aim, the bowstring vibrate, and the arrow had already flown out of the string.

Zhang Rang already felt that something was wrong when Chen Xi spoke, and he wanted to hide at this time, but where did this danger come from? The distance between the two sides is only a few zhang away, although his movements are fast, but where is the speed of the dark arrow?

"Collapse", the bowstring shook one moment, and the next moment the arrows had arrived in front of him like thunder, the sharp arrow cluster did not enter his face, and the strong force immediately split Zhang Rang's head, and the head of the six yang clans burst open like a watermelon, and the headless corpse flew backwards, and fell to the ground with a "snap".

The armor soldier near the palace gate was just about to rush forward to fight, when he saw Zhang Rang being shot in the head, he was stunned for a moment, at this time it was up and no, not on and no, Chen Xi raised his sword at this time, aimed at the black crowd in front of him, and shouted: "Zhang Rang is dead, why don't you give up your arms and surrender?" ”

There was a cry from the cave in the city gate, "Kill him!" ”

The armor soldiers got the order, shouted loudly and rushed up, a smile appeared on the corner of Chen Xi's mouth, only to see that several arrows were sent out in secret, and three enemies were shot down in an instant, and Chen Xi and Guo Jia's sides were all elite, the Yellow Turban Lux and the Yan Guo Heavy Armored Infantry Army, at this time, they were all carrying short crossbows, and they killed and injured dozens of people just by looking at their faces, and then pulled out the ring head knife and entered the melee battle.

After entering the melee, the bow and arrow lost its usefulness, even if it was the person in the dark, it was impossible to shoot arrows and kill people in this situation, but at this time, there was no need for him to kill, because the heavy armored shield soldiers of the Yan Kingdom were invincible in foot combat.

The sword and shield are the most skillful weapons, and they have the highest chance of winning when fighting alone, and they also have a great advantage in melee battles, but when facing a phalanx of infantry, they are at a disadvantage.

When fighting, those who rush into the enemy formation first with swords and shields are generally called "jumping", and warriors who are not strong in martial arts and have great courage cannot do it.

Because there is a chariot driven by the queen and prince here, those armor soldiers did not use bows and crossbows, nor did they throw javelins and throwing axes, but they came prepared, holding spears and halberds and other weapons suitable for battle formations.

Zhang Rang actually planned very well, he had a large number of men, and he took advantage of the weapon, how could he be invincible?

It's just that he didn't expect that there was a killer in ambush in secret, and he was shot as soon as he turned his face, and it was precisely out of confidence in his own soldiers that Guo Sheng ordered the killing of Zhang Rang after he was shot.

In fact, if it was a different person, such as Guo Sheng being killed, Zhang Rang might think about it.

After all, in the face of the spear of Rulin, these people are fearless, they should clearly know the gap in combat effectiveness between each other, even if they are skilled in bows and horses, but the weapons are not as good, then there will be no advantage in hand-to-hand combat, and how can short-handed soldiers be the opponent of spears and halberds?

Theoretically, it wouldn't be a matter of time before the sword and shield men would be slaughtered by their pikemen.

But........

Guo Sheng was in the inner palace, watching in amazement as these armor soldiers rushed into his people, chopping over more than a dozen people one after another, and setting off a bloody storm among his people.

"This ..... This....... Can this still be considered human? ”

Only then did Guo Sheng understand that Chen Xi, Guo Jia, these two scholars dared to take these more than 100 people to take people, because they had confidence! In the army, the hundred generals are already not low, choose one out of a hundred, there are hundreds of people in this kind of character, such strength, although they may not be able to control Luoyi, but it is not much of a problem to occupy the palace city.

Watching the armor soldiers holding heavy shields and crashing into the enemy formation, after breaking the tips of a few spears, they swung the ring head knife and slashed more than ten people one after another, and the halberd spear was close to the body, but some of them couldn't use it, they only needed to use the shield to protect their bodies, and constantly attacked forward, and the people in front of them were killed by them.

If the enemy avoided both sides, they didn't care, they just kept rushing forward, not trying to kill many people, just disrupting the enemy's formation first, and the armor soldiers in front of them were disrupted, and even the people behind them were also confused.

After all, one's own advantage can only be revealed in a melee, while a long weapon needs a battle formation to exert its might, and once dispersed, then the balance of strength between the two sides will be reversed.

All of them are heavily armoured, and even if the sharp tip of the spear pierces the iron armor outside, it is stabbed on the inner armor inside, and the inner armor is a simple chain mail, and the spark is sputtered, and the tip of the gun stops at the chain mail, which will not cause substantial damage.

Several squads dispersed, killing the enemy's formation, the armor soldiers followed behind the people in front of them and also swarmed in, into close combat, the battle was only a few rounds, the armor soldiers have been chiseled through the formation, cold weapon combat, especially long weapons, the formation is the most important, once the formation is lost, the combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

What's more, the formation was broken by so many hundred generals, and the morale of these people plummeted, and they immediately collapsed, and the side that originally occupied the advantage was completely defeated by only half of the armor soldiers.

At this time, a long sword also rested on the shoulder of the stunned Guo Sheng.

"Da Changqiu, don't come unharmed!" The man had a smile on his face and seemed to be very happy, "Why do you think this is the problem?" ”

Guo Sheng came back to his senses, squeezed out a smile on his face that was more ugly than crying, and said: "It is said that General Huben has always had different intentions, Guo didn't believe it before, but now he believes it." ”

At this time, Chen Xi also came to him, looked left and right, ignored him, and went into the palace to see the situation inside; Guo Jia approached at this time and said disdainfully: "Da Changqiu, let's stop talking nonsense, now that Zhang Rang is dead, and you have fallen into our hands again, what do you say?" ”

Guo Sheng laughed dryly, wanting to say something, but when he saw Zhang Rang's corpse on the ground not far away that had been trampled by many people, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Now people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat, so naturally what you say is what you say." ”

He looked at Zhang Rang on the ground and sighed: "You say that you are an old slave, why do you have to fight so much with me?" ”

Guo Jia smiled dumbly at this time: "Then please ask Da Changqiu to gather the hearts of the people in the palace, so that he can assist us in guarding the palace." ”

Guo Sheng said dryly at this time: "The soldiers in the palace are few and outnumbered, and under the discouragement of the people, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold it." ”

Guo Jia said at this time: "If you really can't keep it, then you can be buried with you." ”

Guo Sheng smiled bitterly and said: "Our family has served the queen of heaven in the palace for a lifetime, if you can't keep it, you will naturally die, but if the queen and prince are here, you can calm people's hearts and grasp it a little more." ”

Guo Jia seemed to smile and asked, "What do you say?" ”

Guo Sheng looked at the corpses all over the ground and sighed loudly, they usually act as powerful and blessed, and regard the officials in the court as eagles and dogs, but now as soon as the Son of Heaven died, he was immediately beaten back to his original form, he is alive now, but after dawn, whether this head can still be left on his neck, it is difficult to say.

In a scuffle just now, Queen He and the prince Liu Wei were both frightened, they have always been in the deep palace, and all they saw were smiling faces, how could they have seen such naked violence?

Queen He is an adult, so she can pretend to be calm, but Liu Bian was so frightened that she cried, and most of the palace maids and eunuchs who followed her were also scared to the point that their hands and feet were weak.

At this time, Chen Xi had already entered the palace to take a look, confirmed that Liu Hong was really dead, and then turned back to the carriage at this time, and said, "Queen, the thief has been beheaded, and you can continue on the road." ”

Empress He trembled and asked, "Zhongshu Ling is dead?" ”

Chen Xi said happily: "Yes, I ordered someone to shoot him an arrow, and he died thoroughly, do you want to check it out, queen?" ”

Queen He's hands and feet trembled constantly, and she scolded in her heart: What else to check? This guy is really lawless!

She patted Liu Bian, who was constantly sobbing, and said in a cold voice: "Zhang Rang blocked Yu's car, the crime is unforgivable, it should really be killed, Yu won't look at it, Chen Liaozhou will lead the way in front." ”

Chen Xi arched his hand and said, "Obey!" ”

Chen Xi first sent someone to open the palace gate on the opposite side of the road, and then surrounded Feng Yuan, he brought a total of more than 300 people over, and several people were killed and injured in the melee.

There were not many casualties, and they were able to defeat twice as many enemies as themselves, and their morale was naturally much higher, and after the coalition forces joined forces, some estrangement was quickly eliminated, and the army was like this, as long as it could win the battle, the morale would not be low, and the internal problems would be easily solved.

Watching the queen's car drive out of the palace gate, Guo Sheng shouted left and right: "What are you still watching?" Still haven't cleaned up the floor? ”

He looked at the corpses all over the ground, walked to Zhang Rang's side, and said with a wry smile: "What kind of planning and planning, in the end it is still not as good as a knife in the head, Zhongshu Ling, you are happy, I have to be worried about this!" ”

The scattered armor soldiers slowly gathered over, but they didn't dare to approach, not far away, the eunuch carried the other entities away, walked over in fear, lowered his head and said, "Da Changqiu." ”

Guo Sheng looked at Zhang Rang's headless corpse again, sighed again, and said, "Clean it up." ”

The eunuch came over and carried Zhang Rang's body away, and the rest of the regular servants were taken away, and the soldiers in the palace were also taken away, leaving only these eunuchs and palace maids, and there were no cards in their hands at this time, he was not as good as Zhao Zhong at the beginning, Zhao Zhong not only had the ability, but was ruthless enough, and even the emperor's woman was killed when he said he would kill it.

In this way, he was naturally able to suppress the palace, and even the emperor gave him three points, although Zhang Rang's ability was similar, but he was not ruthless enough, so although the emperor was heavy, he was also Zhao Zhong's first in the palace.

It's just that Zhao Zhong died in a hurry, no one knows, the princess of ten thousand years quietly has such a ability, and then killed Zhao Zhong with one palm, ordered the capital to go up and down, and then went to the Northern Regions, in just one year, he was in charge of Donghu and took charge of the two states, which makes people wonder if there is a huge organization manipulating everything behind this.

Guo Sheng and He Jin had early contact, ready to secretly help He Jin to rule the world, which would definitely be a chaos, and he happened to take advantage of the chaos, fooling the other permanent servants, so as to threaten and persecute. Then he didn't mourn secretly, so he notified He Jin to lead troops into the palace, kill other permanent attendants, and after gaining prestige, he was promoted to rule the world.

Trapped in the palace, Guo Sheng didn't know what the situation was outside, and he didn't know that He Jin, whom she had high hopes for, had been killed.

Liu Hong had a problem three days ago, and they all thought that he needed to take pills to recuperate like before, but he didn't expect that after taking pills this time, he vomited blood and never woke up after that.

At that time, no one else knew the situation, so Guo Sheng offered advice, Zhang Rang was in charge, and kept it a secret for the time being, testing He Jin's attitude towards them, if He Jin was unwilling to reconcile, then kill He Jin, and then talk about anything else.

The news of the edict He entered the palace, I don't know why He Jin did not respect the edict, so he waited until the evening, and it felt wrong, at this time Liu Bei and Jian Shuo, who were in charge of the forbidden army, were nowhere to be found, and then, the northern army was in turmoil, and the internal and external news was isolated.

This series of things, it seems that there is a hand behind it, until now, Guo Sheng seems to be old all of a sudden, I don't know what the future will be, the one in the northern region seems to have been prepared, first sent that Liu Bei into the palace as the ruling Jinwu, and now even Liaozhou Mu Chen Xi and Changshi Guo Jia have entered Luoyi, and the rest of the people in the dark will definitely not be motionless, their ambitions, under the general trend of the other party, are like jokes.
