Chapter 347: I'll Break the Queen
As soon as Wu Ruotang and the Pegasus Ranch and their group landed on the shore, the war drums sounded all around, and two groups of Jianghuai troops of about 300 people each rode out from the two camps outside the city and near the river, and rushed towards them from both sides. For a while, the sound of hooves shook the sky, and the murderous spirit soared into the air. The iron cavalry of the Jianghuai army has not yet arrived, and the powerful arrows have been shattered and the void has been shot one after another!
If Wu Ruotang uses the Taixuan Gong Method, although he may not be able to surpass Shang Xiuxun's Lifting and Vertical Method, it is not difficult to get out of the current danger. But Wu Ruotang is also a hero, especially in the current situation, he needs to show his chivalrous demeanor and heroism in front of Shang Xiuxun, so he didn't wait for everyone to react, he had already crossed out to meet the enemies on both sides, so as not to be intercepted by the enemy and fall into the encirclement of the bitter battle.
Between the wharf and Jingling City, there is a very wide open space, with hundreds of zhang. Du Fuwei set up two strong wooden villages on both sides of the wharf near the river, and surrounded the outside with wooden fences, trap tunnels, arrow trenches and other defensive facilities, cutting off the water and land transportation of Jingling City.
The defenders of Jingling City had already seen Wu Ruotang and the people of Pegasus Ranch on the city wall, and found that they had only relied on a broken and broken cargo ship to break into the enemy's ship formation, and they were able to successfully land on the shore, and immediately burst into a burst of cheers that soared into the sky, which made people's blood boil.
Although the defenders on the city wall bent their bows and arrows and were ready to attack, because the battle was far away, they could only wave their flags and shout, cheer and beat drums, cheer for Wu Ruotang and others, and light the beacon fire, and notify Fang Zetao of the Shuaifu to rush to preside over the overall situation. I can't do anything else!
Shang Xiuxun saw that Wu Ruotang was alone, bravely resisting the enemy, and was excited to go back to help the war. was desperately stopped by Liang Zhi and others, Shang Peng, who had never liked to talk, shouted: "If the owner turns around and goes back now, none of us will be able to climb the wall alive." ”
"Officially, if Lord Wu is cut off, as long as he restrains the pursuers, we will have a chance to live!" Shang He interfaced.
Shang Xiuxun knew that what the two of them said was the truth. But when I thought of the happiness I was with Wu Ruotang day and night, my heart ached violently! Although it was extremely heartbroken, under the persuasion of her subordinates, she could only hold back her tears in the end. Continue towards the city gates.
Wu Ruotang, who was broken, braved the rain of arrows at this time to intercept the two enemy vanguard teams.
The rampaging Xiao Tang Tang rose into the air, and the dragon bird knife turned into a lightning bolt of blue light, slashing towards the four or five spears that stabbed at him. The Dragon Bird Knife reflected the brilliance of the sun overhead, adding to Wu Ruotang's irresistible momentum.
The seven or eight Jianghuai troops who led the way. They were all the elite under Du Fuwei's tent, and everyone was as brave as a tiger and a leopard, but when the Dragon Sparrow Knife slashed towards them, not only were their eyes blocked by the sharp light of the Dragon Sparrow Knife, but their ear drums were filled with the whistling sound of the Dragon Sparrow Sword breaking through the air, and they had no way to grasp the enemy's incoming position. Immediately after that, they had a light hand in their hands, and when they reacted, they found that there was only half a spear left in their hands, which made them frightened! I was terrified. I wanted to retreat, but it was too late, and the sword light flew by, and they fell to the ground with blood splashed, and when they died, they couldn't even figure out where the injuries were.
was stirred up by Wu Ruotang like this, and the Jianghuai army immediately turned over on their backs, and the original majestic division was like a rainbow in an instant. The rear advanced rapidly, and the cavalry that rushed up collided with the frightened horses of the cavalry in front, and many of the horses stumbled and fell at once. Throw the owner on his back to the ground. After intercepting the flood-like Jianghuai army, Wu Ruotang quickly retreated.
After repelling one pursuer, the other pursuer quickly pursued! Wu Ruo, who was running quickly in the direction of Jingling, sneered, and at the distance between the enemy horse and his feet, the whole person fell to the ground. Then his two feet were violently propped up, and he shot straight into the Jianghuai army formation like an arrow, and his two palms slapped more than ten times in an instant. Each palm slapped on the horses of the Jianghuai cavalry.
The strong palm penetrated the horse's body, but it was the enemy on horseback that attacked, and everywhere he went, the cavalry on the horse all spurted blood and fell off the horse. The vanguard of the Jianghuai army was crushed.
When more than a dozen people fell to the ground, Wu Ruotang's true qi had been exhausted, and a sense of unsustainability arose in his heart, so he hurriedly flipped upside down, left the enemy formation, and chased Shang Xiuxun, who had swept to the city gate.
The general defending the city on Jingling City was Qian Yun, a general under Fang Zetao, who had already ordered someone to lower the drawbridge at this time, allowing Shang Xiuxun and others to cross the moat and enter the city.
The defenders of Jingling on the city wall saw that Wu Ruotang was so brave and extraordinary, their morale was greatly boosted, everyone shouted and cheered, and the sound shook inside and outside the Jingling City, which made people's blood boil.
At this time, Shang Xiuxun happened to be the first to climb the wall, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Wu Ruotang blocking the offensive of the cavalry of the Jianghuai Army on the two roads, and also killed the opponent on his back. couldn't help but cheer, and an unprecedented feeling of concern surged in Fang's heart.
At this time, Wu Ruotang had already hurried to the position only a hundred zhang away from the city gate, but due to the excessive exertion just now, his heart was exhausted at this moment, so he could only flee in the direction of the city gate desperately. At this time, the pain in his heart is estimated to be something that only he can understand.
The cavalry of the Jianghuai Army regrouped, although they were overturned by Wu Ruotang just now, but they were well-trained elites after all. After a little rectification, they chased after it again, and the majestic sound of the galloping horses, coupled with the shouting and cheering of the head of the city, instantly changed the color of the heavens and the earth.
Wu Ruotang breathed a sigh of true air, and suddenly new power was born again, and his feet strode forward, and the distance between him and the enemy in an instant was from ten zhang to twenty zhang away.
The Jianghuai army chasing after the tail bent their bows and arrows on their horses, and more than a dozen powerful arrows shot at Wu Ruotang's back like lightning.
"Xiaotang, be careful!" Shang Xiuxun on the city wall screamed.
"Uh-huh!" Wu Ruotang nodded slightly, as if he had eyes behind him, and moved diagonally to the side, and the powerful arrow could only shoot in the air.
Wu Ruotang, who dodged the strong bow and crossbow, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. God willing, it's safe at all.
When the cavalry of the Jianghuai Army saw that Wu Ruotang was not killed, they were very unwilling and wanted to continue the pursuit. But at this time, they had already chased within the attack range of the defenders of Jingling City. The fierce arrows fired by the defenders on the city wall and the stones thrown by the Jianghuai cavalry turned on their backs and were forced to retreat.
It was in the blink of an eye that Wu Ruotang crossed the distance of dozens of zhang, boarded the suspension bridge, and ran into the city gate, once again causing the earth-shattering shouts and cheers.
"Damn, it's not easy! It seems that the protagonist's aura is not covered, so he can't die, hahaha! Wu Ruotang, who had climbed Jingling City, said in ecstasy. (To be continued.) )
