Chapter 808: Look down on life and death
As the prince of the Yuan Dynasty, Meng Ge practiced military formations since he was a child, and his martial arts skills were not lacking, but he never had many opportunities to show off. He once longed to fight with the enemy and was willing to take off the head of the enemy's commander.
He achieved it.
When the Song Dynasty fell, countless generals died under his sword.
But he had never encountered a real life-or-death crisis, and even he thought that his generals, personal guards, and warriors would not let him be in danger.
Later, Brother Meng took it lightly and gave up.
He felt that as a general, he could fight in front of the battle, and as a commander, he should control the three armies. However, he had never experienced that kind of desperate situation. He still regretted that his life was not perfect and he could not compare with his father and ancestors until he succeeded to the throne of Yuan Dynasty.
, because his father once personally led people to attack the city, and he will never be able to compare with him.
Now, the opportunity to make up for the regret has come, but Meng Ge is not happy.
This may be his last battle. Meng Ge holds the saber and follows the few warriors on the Western Wall to repel another wave of Sui army attacks.
Dang clang...
The sound of falling long knives sounded one after another. Brother Meng didn't need to look back to know that Youpaoze couldn't hold on anymore. There was insufficient food and grass in the past two days and he had begun to kill horses. However, the horses could not kill too many. The soldiers could not survive the high-intensity battle.
To cut down on rations and not have enough to eat, to be able to stand here without any complaints is already a reflection of the elite.
Brother Meng looked at the group of Sui soldiers who had been killed in the distance, and pursed his lips tightly. Everyone in the army would be short of rations, but he would not be short of food. He had the obligation to resist for a while longer.
But before the enemy troops could reach him, they were running towards him in confusion.
"Your Majesty!"
A general came up behind Meng Ge and shouted loudly.
"Don't worry about me, I want to die with Pao Ze!"
Brother Meng didn't turn his head, he just said harshly.
"My lord, you can't stay here anymore. Let me escort you out of the encirclement, otherwise there will be no chance of survival!"
The general grabbed Meng Ge's arm and tried to take the sword away from his hand.
Brother Meng turned around suddenly and wanted to scold him, but he was stunned after just one glance.
Except for the general and two personal guards, there is no one here. There are corpses everywhere. The sword that fell to the ground just now is the last person on this section of the city wall.
The general looked at Meng Ge who was stunned on the spot, and felt happy. He leaned over and hugged his legs, and shouted at the same time: "Take the prince away quickly!"
"yes!"
The two guards reacted, one took Meng Ge's sword, and the two of them worked together to pick up Meng Ge's upper body, and followed the general to rush down the city wall.
Among the ruins of the city, hundreds of pale-faced soldiers have been waiting here for a long time.
On the city wall, there were Yuan soldiers leaning over to look at them. They generally had missing limbs, their faces were pale, or their eyes were red, looking at the intact robes below.
Meng Ge was put on the horse and began to struggle.
"What are you doing? You're rebelling, right? I won't leave!"
"My lord, if you stay here, you will definitely die!"
"Even if I die here, Brother Meng, I will never be a coward. Otherwise, how will I face these warriors who came out with me!"
Meng Ge struggled violently.
But suddenly, the general standing beside the horse knelt down.
Dayuan people rarely knelt down on both knees throughout their lives. Except for the Great Khan's parents, Changshengtian, even when facing their superiors, they knelt down at most once when swearing allegiance. After that, they knelt down on one knee at most and never on both knees.
"My lord, if you don't leave, who will help us take care of our relatives?"
He said hoarsely.
Brother Meng was stunned again.
He raised his head and looked at the faces on the city wall. Everyone said nothing and only looked at him, without any anger or pain of being abandoned.
Obviously, they also hope that Meng Ge can take care of their relatives.
As the warriors under Meng Ge, it would be fine if they died. At most, the family would be in trouble, but if Meng Ge died, the family would probably be bullied.
"I……"
Meng Ge clenched his fists, his knuckles turned pale.
"I see."
He lowered his head, not daring to look any further.
"Open the city gate!"
When the general saw this, he immediately shouted.
The city gate was opened, and the more than a hundred cavalrymen approaching the city gate did not hesitate at all, and went straight out. They had to turn into arrows to die earlier than the people left in the city, but no one hesitated.
There was no sound except the thundering of horse hooves.
"The Yuan army came out!"
"Stop them quickly!"
The shouts of the Sui army came from outside the city.
The second batch of Yuan troops were killed, still numbering a hundred.
Soon, the third batch...
"My lord, it's your turn. Please be careful along the way. May the God of Immortality bless you."
The general stepped back half a step with a smile, stopped talking, turned around and walked up to the city.
The fur on Brother Meng's body has long since disappeared. At this moment, his clothes are no different from those of ordinary Yuan soldiers. He is surrounded by people in the center and even disappears into the sea of people.
He had no command. The Yuan army that rushed out of the city did not have his command, and there was no chaos. Instead, it was orderly. This once again showed how terrifying the Yuan army was. It was okay for a large army to engage in battle. In such a small-scale charge, the captain of ten at the bottom
The centurion can coordinate well without command.
After leaving the city, Brother Meng gradually raised his head.
His eyes were already red. He took one last look at Yicheng behind him, and there was no more emotion left. Even the surging hatred was buried in his chest.
"Da Sui, Da Xia, old dog Jie Li, let's wait and see!"
Accompanied by unforgettable hatred, Meng Ge glowed with great vitality.
He must get out!
He will definitely be able to get out!
At the same time, Liu Ji, who was commanding the Sui army, temporarily stopped the trebuchet offensive.
In previous sieges, he always liked to use trebuchets to clear the way, smash the city walls and then attach human walls to the city. However, with the appearance of this Yuan army, in order to prevent accidental injury to his own people, he could only call a halt.
"Most likely he went out to spread the news!"
Han Qinhu stood beside Liu Ji and said coldly.
Half a day ago, they received a letter from the scouts. The Yuan army in the Sui Dynasty had come out, and most of them wanted to come to Yicheng. After all, there was Brother Meng in Yicheng.
"We must not let them escape!"
Yang Lin also said next to him.
Liu Ji nodded and continued to mobilize his troops to thicken the defense line to prevent the Yuan army from killing anyone.
After a fight, the Yuan army that rushed out of Yicheng finally fell into the enemy's formation and failed to break through. The guards who were protecting Meng Ge looked angry when they saw this. They couldn't kill them like this. They wanted to protect Meng Ge.
Flee into the city.
But before he could make any move, another rumble of horse hooves arrived.
The fighting on the battlefield could not cover up the thunderous rumblings. Both sides on the battlefield temporarily stopped and looked into the distance.
"Your Majesty, yes, he is one of our own!"
Sergeant Youyuan rode on horseback to protect Meng Ge. When he saw the flag set up in the distance, he whispered in surprise.
Brother Meng also has a bright future in his heart.
"Send a message and ask Alger to come and kill him!"
The Yuan army came in small numbers and could not make a comeback, but it was possible to save him.
Following Meng Ge's order, the sound of arrows flying through the air echoed throughout the battlefield.
"The prince is over there!"
