Chapter 270: Fierce Battle in Jiangyuan

The big man shouted: "The snow has stopped today. Come with me and go to Yizhou to grab food -" Thousands of people nearby stood up and shouted: "The King of the West is leading a team to grab food!"

It turned out that this grinning man was the King of the West. More than a hundred of his cavalry rushed down the hillside, and countless shabby Qiang soldiers poured out of the woods. Chen Ziang thought for a moment and whispered: "Let's go and have a look."

Then they followed the hungry and cold team, running down the mountain and towards the plain. The hundred and ten cavalrymen shuttled back and forth, saying: "Run quickly, there will be food when we get there. Bring back all the food they planted."

!”

At night, these thousands of Qiang people slept naked in the snow without much clothing. At dawn, the cavalry waved their whips and shouted, beating the soldiers who were too hungry to get up. They ran like this all day and night,

The next evening, I could vaguely see a small town ahead, which was Jiangyuan County, far away from Yizhou.

King Xitian drew his steel sword and pointed it at the county town, shouting: "Kill over and capture this city! The food and women there are for us to enjoy!" Under the blue sky, the Qiang soldiers shouted together, with madness in their eyes, and followed

The cavalry charged towards the city wall.

In the distance, there was a bang on the gate tower of Gangwon City Wall, and a cannon was fired. A fire broke out on the wall, and the beacon tower was lit. The blazing light of the fire illuminated the dark snowy field, making the soldiers of King Xicheon suddenly feel fear. They charged forward.

The soldiers slowed down somewhat and did not dare to rush forward.

King Xitian shouted again: "Don't be afraid, they are asking for reinforcements! The city must be empty. Fearless warriors, rush in before the reinforcements arrive!" The hundred and ten cavalrymen were the leaders of each team, and at this time they also drove away those who hesitated.

of the Qiang people.

The poor Shengqiang people were driven by hunger and cold, and were yelled and whipped by the King of the West and the cavalry, so they had no choice but to rush forward. When they rushed a hundred feet away from the city wall, they saw a row of torches on the wall. The Tang army had already been prepared.

Chen Ziang and Zhou Meier followed the team and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the Tang army was well prepared. These Qiang people, who were poorly equipped and lacked food and clothing, were at an obvious disadvantage compared to the well-equipped officers and soldiers.

Chen Ziang thought of this and stared at the King of the West who was commanding the formation. He couldn't help but feel angry. These chiefs did not care about the life, death, food and clothing of the people under their command, and only focused on waging war. It was really abominable. It was just pitiful that these Qiang people were driven forward and sacrificed their lives for the sake of peace.

The chiefs exchanged wine and meat, but they didn't even know it.

Sure enough, when the Shengqiang soldiers attacked the city wall more than thirty feet away, the Tang troops in the city fired arrows together. The distance was so close that the Shengqiang soldiers rarely had shields and armor, and a large number of them fell down immediately!

The King of the West also commanded hundreds of archers, who concentrated under the city gate and shot arrows upwards. There were bursts of wailing from both sides, but the casualties of the King of the West's soldiers and horses were much heavier than those of the officers and soldiers. Under the cover of the archers, dozens of Qiang people

Risking his life, he picked up an old mountain tree and smashed it against the city gate.

The city gate and tower became the scene of fierce battles between the two sides. The soldiers who crashed the gate naturally suffered the most heavy casualties, but they were driven by the cavalry and were constantly replenished. King Xitian shouted: "Anyone who knocks open the gate will be rewarded with a fat pig!"

Bodies lying down in front of the city gate blocked the way, and someone moved them away and threw them to the roadside. Taking advantage of his large number of people, the King of Xitian ignored these innocent deaths and continued to send troops to supplement the backup. The city gate gradually began to shake, and it was about to be destroyed.

Open.

Chen Zi'ang pretended to attack in the formation, blocking the incoming bows and arrows. While observing, he said: "There must not be many soldiers in the city, only five thousand." Zhou Mei'er frowned and shouted: "The King of the West has nearly ten thousand men!"

If reinforcements cannot arrive in time, the county town will inevitably be captured by the King of the West, and countless residents in the city will be massacred. Sweat dripped from Chen Ziang's forehead, and the city gate has been smashed open by a giant tree!

"Brother, what should I do?" Zhou Meier asked anxiously. The King of the West was driving his soldiers towards the city gate, but he encountered an obstruction below the city tower. It was thought that the officers and soldiers in the city were resisting desperately below the city tower.

Xitianma laughed wildly on the horse, and his soldiers gradually entered the city gate. Chen Ziang did not hesitate anymore, turned over and grabbed a bow and arrow, aimed at the King of Xitian and drew the bow to the full string, receiving ten successes!

"Wha--" The iron arrow flew towards the back of King Xitian!
