The continuous sound of the repeating crossbow machine sounded, and countless crossbow bolts flew over. The repeating crossbowmen responsible for covering regained the crossbow bolts and launched another attack.
The soldiers who defended the city were caught off guard and many fell down in an instant.
Zhega was so angry that his eyes were red, and he looked like a madman. He shouted: "Squat down, everyone squat down, use the old method!"
The soldiers crouched down to hide, not caring about killing the enemy.
The crossbows were directed at the wall almost indiscriminately, and many imperial troops who climbed up the city wall were also shot. They screamed and fell down, knocking down a large area.
The imperial army's offensive stalled, and the soldiers took the opportunity to prepare for a counterattack. They stared at the wall, their eyes red and full of fighting spirit, and the veins in the hands holding weapons were exposed.
"We are all hidden, and we are ready to strike. The continuous crossbows will suppress us. They also pose a threat to the enemy. We can't move too fast. Don't panic. Hold on!" Zhega's roar rang out, shaking all directions.
The soldiers listened to the familiar voice and felt calm.
The Liannu is a double-edged sword. It kills the enemy and also kills one's own people.
The imperial troops were worried about being shot, so their climbing speed slowed down significantly. Even if the crossbow bolt passed a few feet above the wall, they were still afraid of being shot. Who can guarantee that no one's hands would shake?
The battle returns to its previous state again.
Zhega suddenly discovered that it was more beneficial to him to shoot with a continuous crossbow. He could not shoot by hiding under the city wall. On the contrary, if the enemy's attack speed slowed down, his own people could kill him calmly.
The soldiers also discovered this, and their morale increased greatly again.
The battle once again fell into a stalemate, and no one could do anything.
Not long after, suddenly——
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Thousands of horses galloped, and the roar of horse hooves was deafening, resounding through the night sky, suppressing the cries of battle.
Everyone was startled by the sound of horse hooves, and instinctively looked in the direction of the sound, as if the battle had pressed the pause button.
Under the hazy moonlight, a huge cavalry roared towards them, like a life-threatening demon emerging from hell, and a cold and murderous aura hit their faces.
"cavalry?"
Zhejia's pupils shrank suddenly and he stared straight ahead, becoming nervous.
The imperial army is already difficult enough. If the imperial reinforcements come, I am afraid that the whole army will be annihilated tonight. But at this time, there is no one else but the imperial reinforcements. General Xu Shiji's reinforcements cannot arrive so quickly.
The imperial army also looked at the roaring cavalry and felt suspicious. If it was reinforcements, why didn't they contact them in advance and inform them? If not, then who was it?
The battle stopped strangely!
Everyone stared at the roaring cavalry, stunned.
When the battle was like this, whichever side the cavalry came from would win, so I had to be nervous and worried.
Soon, the cavalry approached.
Under the moonlight, the bright red flag was flying fiercely in the wind, and the never-seen-before uniform was confusing.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The roar of horse hooves is like trampling on the heart every time, making people nervous and scared.
The huge cavalry was much closer, and even their faces could be vaguely seen.
The cavalrymen who rushed up suddenly remembered a roar like thunder: "Hanzhou Army, attack!"
"kill!"
Countless people drew their swords one after another and raised them high. The blade, which was as cold as white snow, reflected the moonlight and became sharper.
Thousands of horses are galloping, roaring like a rolling torrent.
Zhega was shocked when he heard the words "Hanzhou Army". He was immediately overjoyed and shouted in Khotanese: "Brothers, it's the Hanzhou Army. Our reinforcements have arrived!"
The voice is so excited that it transforms!
But Zhegahun didn't care and continued to yell.
When the soldiers heard that they were their own people and reinforcements, they immediately became energetic and resurrected with full health. They all shouted like chicken blood: "The reinforcements are here, kill them——"
"Kill!"
The shouts of killing and roars instantly resounded through the night sky.
The imperial troops on the ladder were caught off guard and fell down one after another.
The imperial troops were all from the Tang Dynasty and could understand the slogans without the need for translation. When they knew that the Hanzhou Army was coming, their faces changed drastically and they retreated one after another. However, there was no order to withdraw troops and no one dared to run away.
"Qiang Qiang Qiang!"
A sharp, rapid gong sounded.
The siege troops were immediately overjoyed and ran away, receding like the tide.
"Arrow, hit me hard!"
Zhejia shouted excitedly and ordered his subordinates to expand the victory.
"Kill--"
The sound of killing was heard, and the sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer.
Tens of thousands of cavalry roared in like a tidal wave, sweeping towards the imperial army and quickly engulfing the retreating siege troops. Their swords were chopped down one after another, leaving streaks of pale white horses, like deadly lightning.
Screams and wails filled the air.
How could the imperial siege troops withstand the charge of the war horse group? They were either hacked to death or knocked away by the war horses and trampled to death. No one was spared.
The cavalry continued to charge, soon swamping the suppressing company of crossbowmen, and continued to roll forward.
Zhega was very excited when he saw this scene and shouted: "Quick, Motu, take your people to clear the city gate and fill up the big hole. Batu, lead his troops to prepare war horses and follow me out of the city to chase and kill."
Brothers take revenge."
Someone immediately went to clean up the soil in the city gate hole and fill the big hole.
But filling the hole is not easy and takes time.
Zhega looked at the cavalry whizzing away, his eyes full of fire, wishing he could rush forward and fight side by side. A general came over and asked in a low voice: "General, can you see who is coming?"
"I can't see clearly, but it is definitely the Hanzhou Army. Others will not attack the imperial army. No matter who it is, the one who saves us tonight is my great benefactor of the Khotan tribe." Zhega said excitedly.
"This is not what I mean, but I want to say that this cavalry is very powerful in combat and has superb equestrian skills. We don't need to do anything wrong. The identity of the visitor is terrifying and not simple. I vaguely saw a general holding a horse spear. The horse spear is the same as the horse spear."
The color is different, the silver light is shining, extremely bright, like..."
"You mean?" Zhega suddenly thought of someone.
The general nodded solemnly.
Zhega said more and more excitedly: "If it is really him, then the King of Han must have come too. It seems that the battle to unify the Central Plains is about to begin. We have defended Jincheng County, and we have an explanation. Then we can follow the King of Han to make contributions.
, created a new world."
"That's right!" The general nodded solemnly, his eyes wild.
"Is General Zhega here?"
Outside the city, a man and a horse came over and shouted and asked.
"Exactly, who is here?" Zhega asked loudly.
"According to the order of General Xue, your troops will guard the city and be ready to welcome the King of Han."
"The King of Han is here? Great, how long will it take to arrive?" Zhega asked excitedly.
"It will arrive at dawn!"
"I understand. Thank you for telling me. Do you need our army to go out of the city to fight?"
"General Xue said that the moonlight is not clear and it is difficult to distinguish, so your troops can stay in the city." The other party dropped a word and hurried forward in pursuit.
"Hahaha, it's really General Xue, the sworn brother of the King of Han, who is also an old acquaintance with us. That's great. The army came to kill him overnight. He must be on an empty stomach. Send the order to prepare food and a table of good wine and food. I will also serve Xue
General Jie Feng, go quickly." Zhejia warned excitedly.
Someone immediately agreed and hurried to prepare.
"Then do we still want to leave the city?" Another general asked.
"No need, with the invincible God of War here, where do you need our help? None of the tens of thousands of imperial troops outside the city can escape tonight. Send orders to go down, clean the battlefield, treat the wounded, clean the city gates, and fill the big holes. Go quickly.
"Zhega said excitedly.
The generals left excitedly.
Orders were passed down one after another. When the soldiers heard that they no longer had to fight and survived, they were all excited.
But Zhega looked at the cavalry who were chasing him, clenched his weapons, his eyes were sharp, and murmured to himself: "It's been two years, and it's finally time to make some achievements!"
