Chapter 127: The City Gates Are Broken (Subscription Request)
"Phew~!"
"Phew~!"
"Phew~!"
"Bang~!"
"Bang~!"
"Bang~!"
Standing five meters away, the soldiers' archers had already shot arrows.
All the arrows fell on the shields held by the soldiers.
Although the archers were getting closer, their speed was extremely slow.
No one wants to be at the front.
After all, if we go further, we will reach the city gate passage.
If they angered the God of Death, he would chase them at all costs with his speed. There was no guarantee that they would be able to escape before being rescued by their colleagues.
Lu Yuan stood there somewhat bored, watching the arrows all fall on the shield or on the ground.
That's it?
It seems that this war cannot be fought for a while.
Both sides were in a stalemate for a quarter of an hour.
The officers and soldiers were clamoring outside, and the soldiers were provoking inside the city.
Even the common people who were closer to the city gate and hiding in their houses, who heard the sounds of the army fighting, poked their heads out.
The braver young men walked out of the street and looked towards the place where the battle was taking place on the city wall.
When I saw that majestic figure standing at the city gate.
And under the city gate that was knocked open, there fell a pile of corpses of officers and soldiers.
They understood that the majestic man must be a warrior of the Tianxing Army! He blocked all the attacking officers and soldiers for them!
At this point, everyone started cheering.
However, Lu Yuan stayed in his mansion all day and rarely went out.
Few of these people recognized him. Although they cheered, they could not call out his name.
Amidst the shouting.
Faintly, I could hear the other three city gates in the distance simultaneously sending out
"Bang~!"
"Bang~!"
"Bang~!"
The sound of impact.
When the common people heard the sound, fear appeared on their faces again. Many of them were frightened back into their houses, locked the doors, and dared not come out again.
The battle took place at the north gate.
The officers and soldiers all showed smug expressions.
This time, the three cavalry generals' camps jointly attacked the city.
All the troops were mobilized in full force, even regardless of casualties. Everyone was promised double military merit in order to catch the Tianxing Army off guard.
This Qingquan Prefecture is located in the center of the Tianxing Army's power.
Now, all other places of Tianxing Army have been captured, and all the troops have gathered here.
Once those city gates are breached, the Tianxing rebels guarding here will be unable to escape!
At this time, the officers and soldiers were no longer in a hurry.
He was too lazy to even shoot the bow and arrow.
They all stood guard outside the city gate.
Officers and soldiers were arranged to hold spears and point them at the city gate to prevent the rebel troops from charging in if they saw the wrong situation.
The road was long, so I looked back in the direction of the three city gates.
There are three city gates, and there are only a few hundred soldiers guarding each one.
He didn't know how many soldiers were rushing into the city gate, and whether his soldiers could stop them.
Lu Yuan ordered:
"Zhou An, Xu Changqing, Ma Zongwei, take your men to guard the east, west and south gates respectively!"
Those people over there are all his pawns. If the city gate is breached, his men will be the ones who will be lost.
He could definitely defend this place, and didn't need too many people. So he ordered three brigades to go there to guard and investigate the situation.
"Yes!!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Zhou An, Xu Changqing and Ma Zongwei received the order and took their respective soldiers and quickly walked towards the three city gates.
The officers and soldiers outside the city gate saw that almost half of the rebel soldiers had left, but still did nothing.
Many of them had sneers on their faces.
With less than 3,000 men, they are defending in three directions?
It’s simply a fool’s errand!
They had no idea who was attacking from those three directions!
The troops we lead in each direction will not be one bit less than those here!
I'm afraid that the city gates will have been knocked open before they arrive!
really.
A cup of tea.
The sounds from the three city gates came almost at the same time.
"Bang!" The sound of a heavy object collapsing.
The sound was so deafening that even the north gate could feel it.
At this time, even Lu Yuan frowned.
It was so fast that the city wall was broken open.
It seems that there are quite a few officers and soldiers coming over there.
In this case, the best option is to rush out from here regardless of anything.
However, we have just sent Zhou An, Xu Changqing and Ma Zongwei out, so we cannot just ignore them.
He needed to wait a little longer until the three men came back with their pawns and joined him, then they could rush out of the city gate together to avoid being surrounded and putting their pawns in danger.
North city gate.
Zhou An and his soldiers had only rushed halfway when the city gate was opened.
He quickened his speed and just when he could see the city gate, he heard shouts and screams from the other side.
He watched helplessly as at least five thousand soldiers rushed in from the city gate and chopped down the guards.
Nearly three hundred soldiers were chopped down and stabbed to the ground before they could hold out for a moment.
This made him realize that what they were facing were probably the government's real elite troops!
Invincible!
Zhou An quickly gave orders, asking all soldiers to retreat towards the north gate.
And at the same time, let all the pawns shout out loud:
"All the people!! Get out of your houses quickly and escape!! Don't wait for the soldiers to kill you!!"
Just now they had seen that many soldiers had entered the houses near the city gate and were killing people.
They are no longer able to protect the people here, they must be evacuated!!
The shouting of thousands of people was not only heard by the civilians hiding in the houses, but also alarmed all the officers and soldiers who rushed into the city gate.
Under the command of the general, all the officers and soldiers rushed towards Song An's brigade.
Even the officers and soldiers who were killing in the houses were called out.
In their eyes, these rebel troops wanted to use the fleeing people here to distract their attention and take the opportunity to escape.
Their first goal, naturally, was to kill these well-trained rebel troops equipped with weapons and armor.
As for these rioters.
As long as we deal with the Tianxing rebels here, we will have plenty of time to chase and kill them.
Nearly five thousand officers and soldiers, covered in blood, shouted and chased Zhou An's brigade towards the south.
The pursuit after one thousand.
When Zhou An's troops reached the center of the city.
It just happened to meet up with the brigades of Xu Changqing and Ma Zongwei coming from the east and west respectively.
Behind the three men, there were densely packed soldiers shouting and killing, deafening sounds.
Needless to say, after the three brigades gathered together, they all headed towards the north gate.
Three thousand soldiers marched ahead with their red and yellow feet.
Behind him were more than 15,000 officers and soldiers, almost filling up the entire road. They formed a long line and chased after the Tianxing rebel army in front with loud shouts and screams.
All the street stalls that had not been closed in time, as well as the fruits and vegetables for sale placed outside the shops, were all scattered.
