Although Zhao Wu died, Zhou Chun and the dozens of remaining soldiers around him saw hope. A group of people quickly moved to the door. Several Zhou soldiers raised their swords and axes to smash the door leaf into pieces. What they saw was a side covered with earth and sand.
A low wall piled with seats and debris.
The low wall is only half as tall as a person, but it is not possible to climb over it by just raising your legs. Especially under the threat of the Han army's arrows, it is definitely a very dangerous thing to climb over the low wall.
thing!
"Turn over, turn over! Use shields to cover, and turn over one by one." Zhou Chun yelled. No matter how dangerous it is, it is better than waiting to die, right? The soldiers who came from behind have been forced back by the Han army. For this reason
The Han army all used fire oil cans! It can be imagined that the Han army was determined to win.
A distraction was met with retribution immediately. A carved feather arrow pierced Zhou Chun's left arm. Driven by the strong penetrating power of the triangular arrow cluster, the sharp arrow cluster easily pierced Zhou Chun's left arm.
The armor on Chun's upper arm penetrated the flesh and bone, and it penetrated nearly two inches before the force stopped.
"Uh!" Zhou Chun couldn't help but let out a muffled groan. The severe pain almost caused the sword in his hand to come out. Although Zhou Chun immediately refocused his physical and mental attention on the protection in front of him, his left arm was seriously injured.
, which dragged him down, and it was impossible to block so many arrows with just a sword swing with his right arm in a hurry. If he hadn't been guarded by personal soldiers in time, he would have been in danger.
"Tie Zhou, grandpa will serve you some roast pigs to eat——"
On the roof of the shop opposite Zhou Chun, there suddenly came a roar of gnashing teeth and a ferocious laugh. Along with this ferocious laugh, there was a fire oil jar that made Zhou Chun and his soldiers faint.
That's right. Since the Han army could use fire oil cans to block the follow-up response of Zhou soldiers, how could they let Zhou Chun go without using it?
Zhou Bing's heavy shield can withstand crossbow bolts made of iron, and it can also block countless arrows, but it can never stop the splashing of a can of fierce fire oil. That is a sharp thing that can burn a large area in one can.
It's contaminated even if it's rolled all over the floor, it won't get rid of it.
For anyone, being burned to death is worse than being shot to death with an arrow, which is a clean and neat thing.
Dozens of Zhou soldiers who were already panicking fell apart in an instant, but two cans of kerosene fell on the shields, spreading stains everywhere, and then ignited fire everywhere.
The fire swallowed up ** people on the spot, and the Zhou soldiers who were covered in flames instantly turned into burning men one by one. They panicked and slapped the flames on their bodies, and even went to call for help from their comrades in front of them.
The small team around Zhou Chun was torn into pieces. The Han army's crossbowmen also stopped shooting at the burning men at the right time, allowing them to withdraw their companions one by one into hell.
No matter how good a friendship is, there are still considerations before life and death. Zhou Bing, who was on fire, asked for help from his companions, which was completely seeking the skin of a tiger. The latter naturally dodged for fear of being out of reach.
However, thirty or forty Zhou soldiers escaped from the burning man and could not avoid the arrows from above their heads and flanks. They were all killed or wounded in just a minute or two.
Zhou Chun had no cover around him, so he had to rely on himself to deflect the arrows. The injury to his left arm took away his last chance of survival.
The shining sword wheel with snowy light was not impenetrable. Four crossbow arrows passed through the sword light. Zhou Chun tried his best to avoid it, but he only got out of the way of the first two, and the other two pierced his chest and abdomen respectively.
Fortunately, the Mingguang Armor was thick and hit the target directly. The strong armor blocked 80% of the force of the two crossbow arrows. After breaking through the armor, it could only penetrate Zhou Chun's middle coat made of silk, and it could only penetrate the flesh.
Xu. But this undoubtedly made Zhou Chun's situation more difficult, and further explained his current decline.
"General, be careful!" Another group of Zhou soldiers who were isolated in the trap looked anxious. All the soldiers around Zhou Chun were dead, and he himself was injured and his life was in danger. It really made them feel heartbroken.
Some of the captains, military lords and other middle and lower-level officers knew that without Zhou Chun to lead the fight, their group would be leaderless and in dire straits. The rest would be a dead end. At that moment, everyone started to disregard their own safety. There were shouts,
These middle and lower-ranking officers, regardless of their heads, shot sharp arrows and crossbows from both sides with all their strength, and really rushed towards Zhou Chun through fire and water.
"Puff - Puff -" the sound of sharp arrows piercing flesh kept resounding. In the short distance of thirty or forty steps, more than half of the Zhou soldiers who rushed in fell down.
But before these trousers could be seen, the remaining Zhou soldiers, whose skirts were on fire, rushed to Zhou Chun. Several repeating crossbows were already aimed at Zhou Chun's upper, middle and lower body, and they began to fire arrows...
"Kill, kill me -" The furious shouts went straight into the sky. Chen Shiju's eyes were split with rage, and the halberd in his hand was raised high above his head, emitting bursts of cold light. The war horse under his crotch seemed to also feel the owner's anger and violent killing intent.
It keeps raising its head and neighing, and its front hooves tap the ground from time to time, eager to move.
Just now, from the tower of the south city of Ling'an County, which had been unable to be conquered for a long time, a loud voice suddenly resounded on the battlefield: "Listen, Zhou army thieves, your former army commander has been consecrated, and thousands of thieves who have entered the city are with you.
All the soldiers have been put to death......?"
Like a bolt from the blue, the Han army's sudden shouts made all the 30,000 Zhou troops under the county seat panic and panic, and tens of thousands of eyes turned to where the commander Chen Shiju was.
After several battles and sieges, how many people have the Zhou army filled in? If Zhou Chun's army was really wiped out, the number of lost soldiers would have been many thousand. The fifty thousand who came to Quzhou
The Zhou army lost 20% of its troops, but there was no sign or sign of victory.
The Zhou army was in uncontrollable panic, especially the Zhou army attacking the city. The main reason why they were confident and high-spirited in attacking the city was that Zhou Chun's troops were restraining the Han army in the city. The city has not been captured yet, Zhou Chun
But he was beheaded, and his spirits suddenly dropped.
"This is a plan by the Han thieves to disrupt the morale of our army. General Zhou has three thousand elite troops under his command. How could the entire army be wiped out in just one hour? The troops cannot believe the enemy's trick!"
Chen Shiju knew that the Han army would definitely be invincible if they dared to shout like this, but he could only say this! At the same time, he prayed in his heart, praying that Zhou Chun would do more before he died, and use his three thousand troops to kill and consume more Han soldiers.
military.
But the next scene left Chen Shiju stunned, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
"Listen, traitors, our army originally wanted to behead Zhou Chun and hang it on the city gate, but seeing that he died after fighting hard, my general couldn't bear to destroy his body in order not to harm the general's duty.
, so I returned the body here in person, and your army immediately sent two soldiers to carry it away."
There was a section of the south wall where there was no fighting. The Han military captain who had his head exposed on the wall shouted loudly and immediately waved his hand back. He saw a flat basket, as long as one person, being carried by four Han soldiers.
When we reached the edge of the city wall, there were four ropes tied to it.
Under the gaze of everyone, the basket was slowly lowered down the city wall.
"You traitor of the Zhou army, why don't you come and take it away quickly?" Yun Zheng also showed his head on the city gate tower and shouted loudly in the direction of Chen Shiju.
Chen Shiju's eyes were filled with sorrow and tears filled his eyes. His lips were trembling. He tried to speak but failed to make a sound. He really regretted in his heart. Why did he agree to Zhou Chun's entry into the city? Not to mention the two of them.
It would be a great loss to the morale of the army if a former general of the army had his personal relationship with him.
Regret and pain were like thousands of insects gnawing at Chen Shiju's soul, "You, you, you two, go -" The pro-army leader behind him, who had come to his senses, suppressed the panic in his heart, and pointed at the two men behind him.
said.
The uneasy mood quickly spread among the Zhou army, and the morale of the army was shaken!
"You think, it would be great if we had a cavalry army at this time?" Yun Zheng, who was on the south tower, felt the changes in the Zhou army's formation not far away, and couldn't help but sigh and said to the military academy behind him, "You don't need too many cavalry, Guangzhou
Half of the 8,000 people under Yangcheng have been divided. At this moment, they rush out and step directly into the center of the Zhou army to defeat the enemy."
"It's a pity, it's a pity..." Yun Zheng doesn't have a single cavalry in his hands now. Moreover, he and Li Xian have made the city of Ling'an look like a spider web or a mouse hole. Even if there are cavalry, they can't get out of it, so they can only look at it.
Excited and sighed.
Two of Chen Shiju's personal soldiers ran quickly to the basket at the foot of the city. After taking a look inside, their faces turned pale and there was no trace of blood anymore.
Lying inside was Zhou Chun's body, with a broken and bloody Zhou army flag covering his body.
"Oh, it's under the city." The Han military captain at the top of the city saw the two men in a daze and saw no movement, so he immediately shouted. "Be quick and carry him away quickly. Otherwise, we will pull him up and take his head immediately."
"
The two soldiers who were awakened by the cries at the top of the city tremblingly lifted Zhou Chun's body out of the basket. Under the basket was a flat plate, which was perfect for riding on the body.
Logically speaking, the weight of two people working together to lift one person should not be too heavy, but now these two Zhou soldiers feel as if there is a mountain of ten thousand feet on their backs. The difficulty of moving can no longer be used to describe the slow speed of the two.
It can only be described with the word "move".
Chen Shiju slowly controlled his mind. An old friend of many years passed away today. Ever since the King of Tang decided to compete for the throne, he and others have been preparing for that day. But now 'that day' is coming, old man
My friends can't see it.
Not only Zhou Chun, but also Cao Guoan and Meng Ruhu, who escaped from Sanshi City, are still trapped in Taigu County. Whether they can save their lives depends on when the Han army attacks Taigu...
In the dark eyes, a deep and extremely cold light was brewing. Chen Shiju's whole temperament changed. Instead of the previous grace and elegance, there was a bone-chilling coldness...
"Go, help them!" Leng Su glanced at the guards beside him.
Sensing the calmness in Chen Shiju's eyes, the guards felt even more uneasy. If Chen Shiju could show a hint of anger, they would be relieved at the moment. "Yes, general." Several guards immediately accepted the order.
Covered by an incomplete and bloodstained battle flag of the Zhou army, Zhou Chun's body passed through the Zhou army's front array and arrived in front of the Chinese army's Chen Shiju.
Turning over and dismounting, Chen Shiju stretched out his hand to wipe away Zhou Chun's eyes that were still open with anger until his death, but he did not shed a single tear or say a word. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
