Seven hundred and seventieth chapters break the city
Chapter 776: Broken City
Under Dian Wei's order, the army rushed forward in an instant. Although it marched silently, a fierce aura pressed directly against it like an ancient beast.
"The trebuchet covers the gap and clears the way for Dian Wei to advance."
Seeing the Yangzhou army forming a formation at the gap, Yuan Shu directly ordered the trebuchet to cover and fire.
"My Lord has ordered that the trebuchet cover the gap and clear the way for General Dian Wei."
"Follow orders."
"All trebuchets obeyed the order, loaded with shotguns, and fired ten rounds to cover the gap."
"promise."
Yuan Huang's order sounded directly among the trebuchet troops. After hearing the order, all the trebuchets instantly adjusted their direction, loaded shotguns, and then launched directly.
"Defense, defense."
Seeing the shotguns flying into the air like dark clouds, Zhou Ping shouted loudly, shields erected, but the shotguns hit the ground with blood and corpses everywhere.
Under ten consecutive rounds of scattered bullets, Zhou Ping's 40,000-strong army was directly smashed and fled, and the already loose military formation collapsed.
"kill."
Dian Wei jumped over the broken city wall with a big jump and smashed into the enemy like a meteorite.
The swing of the double halberds brought about a bloody storm, and the surrounding soldiers were cut off in half before they could resist.
After Dian Wei, the guards were fearless and climbed over the city wall one after another to come to Dian Wei, and then launched an attack on the enemy like tigers descending the mountain.
Although the Yangzhou Army under Zhou Ping was also an elite force, it was still a bit underwhelming when faced with the battle-experienced Guards, and was immediately beaten and suffered heavy losses.
"Keep it, you must keep it."
Zhou Ping stood in the middle of the army. Seeing the defeat of the former army, he anxiously commanded the troops to continue moving forward.
"Follow me."
Seeing the guards opening up the battlefield, Dian Wei looked at the direction and killed them directly.
With Dian Wei, a fierce general, leading the way at the front, the guards were also brave and followed Dian Wei desperately to attack the enemy's center.
After the Guards, the Trapping Army and the Hengye Army also climbed over the city wall one after another and entered Shouchun City. Then, it seemed like two knives each began to strangle the Yangzhou Army in front of them.
The 40,000 Yangzhou Army faced the more than 40,000 elite Yuan Shu Army and was immediately beaten to pieces and unable to resist.
"Sir, I can't stop it anymore, I can't stop it anymore."
Zhou Ping's personal guards looked at the near-carnage battlefield and shouted directly to him.
"If you can't stop it, you have to stop it. We eat the emperor's salary and are loyal to the emperor. Your Majesty and the state pastor have given us everything we have. Now is the time for us to repay them. Follow me without fear of death. We must stop them.
.”
Zhou Ping's eyes were blood red, he roared angrily like a lion, and then he rushed out with a spear in hand.
"Protect your lord."
Zhou Ping's personal guards saw him rushing out and followed him without hesitation to charge towards the guards.
"Yangzhou Lieutenant Zhou Ping is here, who dares to come and fight?"
Zhou Ping shot the two guardsmen around him to death, and then screamed loudly at the battlefield.
When the Yangzhou army saw that Zhou Ping was taking the lead and not afraid of life and death, the morale of the Yangzhou army instantly rebounded, and the situation that was on the verge of collapse became stable.
"Jizhou Guard General Dian Wei is here, Zhou Ping is here to take orders."
Dian Wei roared loudly, and his two halberds chopped off the four or five soldiers in front of him, and then he went straight towards Zhou Ping like an evil tiger.
Dian Wei felt the morale of the Yangzhou army improve immediately, but what could he do?
As long as he can kill this Yangzhou Lieutenant, the current enemy will collapse immediately.
"You are the one to be killed."
When Zhou Ping heard that Dian Wei reported his family name, he knew that this was an excellent opportunity. If he could kill Dian Wei, the morale of Yuan Shu's army in front of him would definitely collapse, and the war in Shouchun City would also be stabilized.
The two of them moved forward separately, and soon collided with each other. Zhou Ping's iron spear pierced Dian Wei's throat like lightning. He would try his best to kill Dian Wei in front of him with one blow.
Seeing the iron spear coming, Dian Wei didn't even blink. The halberd in his left hand flew away with the strong wind, and the halberd in his right hand whipped up the strong wind and stabbed Zhou Ping's chest.
"My life is at an end."
After fighting with Dian Wei, Zhou Ping realized that the bravery he was proud of was just like a child's play in front of others. He couldn't resist even a single move. Now the only thing he could do was to watch the opponent's iron blow.
The halberd impaled itself.
"Protect your lord."
Seeing Zhou Ping's iron spear being sent flying, the guards around him rushed over and blocked Dian Wei's iron halberd with their bodies.
"puff."
The flesh-and-blood body was directly cut in half by the huge force of the iron halberd, and fell to both sides like rotten meat.
"Zhou Ping suffered death."
Seeing that the fatal blow was blocked by someone, Dian Wei was not willing to let Zhou Ping go, and continued to swing his halberd to kill Zhou Ping in front of him.
"Protect me, protect me."
At this time, Zhou Ping also came to his senses. Having just escaped from the God of Death, he cherished the existence of life even more, and while running backwards, he called for his guards to come over for support.
Seeing Zhou Ping's danger, the guards did not hesitate to jump out to stop Dian Wei, but without exception, they were all killed by Dian Wei's iron halberd.
Even so, the guards continued to stand in front of Dian Wei to buy time for Zhou Ping to retreat. Seeing Zhou Ping getting further and further away, Dian Wei couldn't help but frown.
"Zhou Ping."
Dian Wei suddenly shouted loudly, and Zhou Ping, who was escaping, turned his head sharply. At this moment, Dian Wei directly grabbed a flying halberd from his back and shot towards Zhou Ping.
"Protect."
Before Zhou Ping could finish his words, the flying halberd had already pierced his chest. The huge force carried him directly into the air, and then he fell heavily to the ground.
"Protect your lord."
Seeing Zhou Ping being shot by a flying halberd, the guards immediately surrounded Zhou Ping and carried him before disappearing in front of Dian Wei.
"Zhou Ping is dead. If you don't surrender quickly, are you waiting to be slaughtered?"
He couldn't catch up now, but Dian Wei knew that Zhou Ping was already dead, so he shouted directly at the enemy.
After hearing Dian Wei's words, the Yangzhou soldiers all looked in the direction of Zhou Ping, and sure enough, their captain had disappeared.
Zhou Ping was gone, and the morale of the soldiers that they had just raised fell to the bottom.
"run."
"No more fighting, I surrender."
"Yes, Zhou Ping is gone, why should we fight?"
The Yangzhou army collapsed instantly, and the soldiers behind them fled in all directions. The soldiers in the front could only abandon their weapons and surrender in the face of the elite troops brought by Dian Wei.
"The Guards gathered the prisoners, trapped the troops, and the Hengye Army counterattacked the city wall, cooperating with the Xuzhou Army to clear out the enemy forces."
Seeing the collapse of the Yangzhou army in front of him, Dian Wei divided his troops without hesitation.
The battle at the gap ended, and the battle on the city wall also reached a climax. Zang Balou's chariot and ladders were used to directly attack the city wall. The Yangzhou Army on the city wall was also mentally unstable in the face of the Xuzhou Army's fierce attack, and it was difficult to support.
"kill."
During the fierce battle, the enemy troops and the Yokoye army were like two evil tigers, killing each other from the stairs on both sides.
"Captain, it's not good, the enemy's soldiers and horses are attacking the city wall from both sides."
Seeing this, someone immediately reported the news to Hou Pi, who was in command.
"What?
The enemy's soldiers and horses rushed up the city wall?
It's over, the state captain must have been defeated by the enemy."
