Chapter Eighty-Nine: Battle Song
When Bai Luofeng arrived at Quanyang City, the city had already been reduced to a sea of fire, and the fire had spread to several miles away, and layers of wolf smoke could be seen, and the firelight illuminated half of Shenzhou.
The Mongolian people outside stopped at the city gate, they did not expect this fire, only knew that when the army was still rushing into Quanyang City, the north gate was blasted for no reason, and the troops who drove straight into the city were directly cut off by the waist, and hundreds of warriors who were at the city gate were killed on the spot, and countless people were seriously burned, lying on the ground and screaming in pain.
The raging fire did not give them a chance to escape, and suddenly it burned along the city wall, and the Mongolian people who were not yet dead were buried in it, and the terrible cry of crying and screaming was instantly drowned in the rising firelight.
The Mongols looked at their companions, who were faintly visible in the fire forest and eventually turned into carbon ash, and finally they were helplessly blocked, and no one wanted to get any closer to the wall of fire that was hot enough to melt the iron and stone.
The flames crackled, covering up all the movement between heaven and earth, and the Mongolian people outside the city, who were anxiously waiting for the fire to become smaller, could not imagine that in the city where the fire snake spread, a battle was intensifying.
Qiu Yanbin's sideburns had already been scorched, and the pungent smell of meat paste and choking smoke made it extremely difficult for him to breathe, as if every gasp would not be exhaled.
"General, you should leave the city from the south gate quickly, and rely on us here. The pro-soldier Wang Ping'an quickly approached Qiu Yanbin, his body was smeared with a lot of dust, one side of his ear had been cut off, and half of his face was stained beyond recognition by blood, "After you escaped, we blocked the south gate with a fire, and completely trapped the Mongolian people in the city." ”
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Qiu Yanbin said angrily as if he had been touched by someone: "Three thousand erlang is here together, where else do I need to go!"
"General!"
"Tell me about it again, or I'll kill you first!" Qiu Yanbin grabbed the arm of the Mengren who rushed into the air, and the Mengren who was clamped on his hand was so painful that his face was distorted, and the big knife in his hand fell to the ground, and the general's sword decisively penetrated his stomach.
There were not many Mongols entering the city, but for the remnants of the Yu soldiers, the enemy with fast horses was still overwhelming by Mount Tai and difficult to resist.
Unknowingly, with Qiu Yanbin as the center, the defenders consciously surrounded the city and blocked the south gate of the city, bravely resisting the Mongolian people who were constantly trying to attack on the periphery.
"Fuck it! Whoever asked you to protect Lao Tzu! Get out of the way of Lao Tzu!" Qiu Yanbin's eyes were red and he scolded, without the slightest style of a Confucian general, "Get out! Who let you do this! Believe it or not, Lao Tzu chopped him up!"
But no matter how Qiu Yanbin abused, the impenetrable human wall just didn't want to disperse, he saw more and more soldiers spilling blood and dying, and more and more people desperately went up.
Will live like this, what is the regret of death!
"Well, just let me stay at the end and pack up for you before you hit the road. Qiu Yanbin no longer wanted to break through and kill the enemy, he felt that he had lived for half his life and finally experienced the happiness of being a soldier and a horse leather shroud.
The sky is not satisfactory, but people are not cold.
A column of people fell, Qiu Yanbin's sword also held tighter, just as a horse broke through the last two human walls and rushed towards Qiu Yanbin with a knife, a trance in mid-air was crossed by Changhong, and then the horse and the person collided in a pool of blood one after another.
The sword was retracted, the blood on the sword had not yet dripped out, and Wang Ping'an, who was a few steps away from Qiu Yanbin, had no time to step forward to take precautions, and a man in brown had flashed in front of the general and looked at him: "Are you Qiu Yanbin?" Liu Jizong sent me to save you. ”
When Qiu Yanbin heard Liu Jizong's three words, he immediately came back to his senses and said one after another: "You were sent by Wuhou?
"Wuzhou County is fine, Liu Jizong and the new reinforcements sent by the imperial court have been sent to Quanyang, I am half a day ahead of him to investigate the situation. ”
"It's okay, it's okay. Qiu Yanbin completely forgot about his situation and was relieved.
It's a pity that the look of relief didn't stay for a while, and he muttered to himself with a little bitterness: "Alas, I still live up to Wuhou's expectations......"
After a while, Qiu Yanbin looked around at his subordinates who were fighting bloodily, and said to Bai Luofeng with satisfaction, "Shaoxia doesn't have to save me, Quanyang is difficult to blame for losing Qiu's position, and he can only apologize with death! ”
"Bai's entrustment is to save people, not to talk, if you have anything to say, you can say it yourself. Bai Luofeng said indifferently.
Qiu Yanbin looked at the stubborn Bai Luofeng, and when he wanted to say something, he suddenly felt a heavy blow to the back of his head, and then his eyes darkened.
The person who attacked Qiu Yanbin was Wang Ping'an.
The captain firmly put the person on Bai Luofeng's shoulder, and seemed to have finally let go of his worries, and he didn't know who to talk to: "There is no shortage of worthless rough people like us in the world, but there are not many generals who can fight." ”
Bai Luofeng's throat rolled up and down, but he still couldn't restrain his emotions and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, I can only save one." ”
"One is enough. Ping An finally glanced at the general and smiled, then re-raised his knife and rushed towards the chaotic army, leaving only a sentence on his back: "You must take our general and tell him that the last one to fall in Quanyang City is the soldier of Dayu!"
Bai Luofeng didn't stop to stay at this moment of life and death, and the time left for him was not enough - the city was full of dying and struggling Mongolians, and a mere Bai Luofeng was not enough to save the current situation.
After saying a few words to Wang Ping'an, there were dozens of more people on the ground, and the Mongolian people couldn't sleep for a long time. At this time, the south gate could not be opened, and the remaining defenders alone had no strength and energy to cover the heavy city gate.
The visitor looked up at the sky-high city wall, even Tang Wuye, who was the top of the world, couldn't jump out here, but Bai Luofeng never broke his word about what he said—because he had a sword in his hand!
His man sprang up suddenly, swept three feet, and when he was halfway through his body, the sword had already struck, and stabbed him impartially.
When the tip of his foot touched the blade of the sword, the man floated upwards again, and the sword returned to the palm of his hand with one of the five fingers of his hand, and then in an instant it was thrown to the next foot.
A few movements, in one go, back and forth in pairs, finally stepped on the masonry at the head of the city.
Wang Ping'an, who was under the city, saw Qiu Yanbin go out of the city safely, and the boulder on his chest quietly landed, he raised his arms and shouted: "The general is out of the city, set fire to the south gate, so that none of these miscellaneous pieces can escape!!!"
The gathered Han soldiers scattered in all directions, fighting for their lives without care, and I don't know who set the fire with their hands free, completely sealing the last retreat of Quanyang City.
The flames on the south wall rubbed higher than the city, and Quanyang City completely turned into a huge bonfire, as if it was about to burn through the sky overhead.
In the smaller and smaller circle of fire, the defenders were not afraid of death, and their cries shook the stone wall, which was the last battle song they sent to the Dayu Dynasty!
