The rebels' attacks were like waves, one after another.
The palace walls have almost lost their defensive function. There are piles of corpses inside and outside the walls, and the rebels can rush into the palace by trampling on them.
The sandbag wall set up by Xiaolong played a decisive role. It was also the last complete line of defense. Once it was broken down, it would inevitably fall into a melee and it would be difficult to organize an effective defense.
Countless torches illuminated the bloody battlefield, the clash of weapons was deafening, countless rebels launched attacks again and again, and the shadows were so thick that it felt like being in a ghost prison.
Finally, corpses piled up on the sandbag wall, getting higher and higher, and the two sides continued to fight fiercely on the pile of corpses. None of our soldiers retreated, preferring to die on the battlefield.
Zhang Yi brothers are still at the forefront. They will appear wherever the most critical situation is until the enemy's attack is repelled.
The leader of one side was on the front line, while the leader of the other side commanded remotely. The result is self-evident, as the rebels' offensive gradually weakened.
The battle lasted until dawn, but the enemy, apart from suffering heavy casualties, did not move a step towards their position.
At this time, Wu Rui had another treacherous plot, and he made people shout.
"King Liu Kai is dead!"
"Zhang Yi plots to kill the king, usurp the throne, and kill this traitor!"
"Zhang Yi, the great thief who stole the country, will be killed by everyone!"
…
Despicable enough and shameless enough.
After a day and night of fierce fighting, Zhang Yi's throat was thirsty and he was exhausted. While he was struggling to hold on, his lungs almost exploded when he heard the shouts.
At this moment, Xiao Liu ran over, holding a cup of tea in his hand.
She trampled on the corpses everywhere, her eyes full of anger and sadness, but she held the tea cup steadily and ran all the way. When she saw Zhang Yi standing there safe and sound, she laughed and cried.
Lifting his helmet, Zhang Yi took the tea cup and drank it in one gulp. A stream of sweetness refreshed his heart and spleen, and suddenly turned into infinite power.
What surprised Zhang Yi even more was that King Liu Kai walked out of the basement with the support of Xiaoliu sisters and appeared on the battlefield. The five girls, Xiaohua, Xiaoxiang, Xiaofei, Xiaochang and Xiaoan, held large shields to protect the king.
Protected from arrow attacks.
"Father is much better!"
Xiao Liu hugged Zhang Yi's arm and said happily.
Yes, King Liu Kai cheered up after taking Jiuxin Pills and ginseng. The imperial doctor warned him not to participate in the battle, but he couldn't sit still and insisted on coming to the battlefield to cheer.
Brother Zhang Yi hurriedly ran over and guarded the king.
Liu Kai had been used to seeing bloodshed in his life, and he remained calm. He stepped on corpses and appeared at the forefront of the battlefield. His golden armor shone in the rising sun, and the rumors were self-defeating.
"Long live my king!"
The shouts of our combatants soared into the sky.
The rebels were so frightened that they peeed and retreated backwards.
The nickname "Northwestern Wolf" is not for nothing. The wolf has no derogatory connotation in the minds of people in the Northwest, but is a symbol of powerful power. It's just that people in other regions have misunderstandings.
I think back then, when Liu Kai was on the battlefield, even powerful generals like Liu Guang and Wang Zheng were beyond his reach. Except for the overlord General Cao, no one dared to fight Liu Kai head-on.
Zhang Yi stood beside this heroic senior, his heart was surging, he was glad to have met him, and to have his trust.
Xiao Liu wiped away her tears and stood happily between the two of them, holding her father in one hand and Zhang Yi in the other. How honored and gratified she was. The greatest hero in the world was the one who loved her most, and was also her most beloved.
loved ones.
Witnessing this scene, Xiaolong, Xiao Han and Wang Zheng were also moved. The people always need a hero. The hero is the spiritual support of the people. There is never a shortage of heroes. Today, they are standing on the battlefield and lying in a pool of blood.
Everyone among them is a hero. But the only heroes who are admired by everyone are Liu Kai and Zhang Yi.
"Hey, the imperial doctor took away my weapons. Otherwise, I would fight with you and kill all these stupid thieves!" King Liu Kai sighed.
"Haha," Zhang Yi couldn't help but laugh a few times, "Father, there is no need to regret. With my son, ministers and others here, how can I dirty my father's hands?"
Everyone laughed loudly.
…
The appearance of King Liu Kai and the inability to conquer the enemy for a long time made the rebels lose their fighting spirit. They did not dare to launch a new offensive despite being scolded by the leaders and a group of generals.
"Your judgment is correct." King Liu Kai patted Zhang Yi on the shoulder and said.
Seeing the group of military generals, Liu Kai immediately understood that without the acquiescence of his younger brother Liu Guang, the military generals in the capital would never follow Wu Rui in rebellion.
Xiaoliu had already told his father all Zhang Yi's guesses. He said nothing at that time, was extremely sad and half-believed. At this point, he saw the trick and was sure. Liu Guang had no brains and was deceived and deceived by Wu Rui.
Bewitched and brazenly joined forces to rebel.
"Father, today I will suppress the rebellion, and then I can keep Liu Guang out of the city. Then I will persuade him..." Zhang Yi said.
"You don't have to be embarrassed. It's all up to you to adapt to changes." King Liu Kai said firmly.
As a monarch, he has the community in mind and will not be fettered by personal feelings.
The mental endurance is beyond imagination.
Zhang Yi was deeply shocked. He glanced at Xiao Liu and nodded. Xiao Liu was unusually calm at the moment. She looked forward. The person who caused this catastrophe must pay the price. She knew that her uncle didn't even consider the life and death of the father and daughter.
If you don't hesitate to kill countless people to satisfy your own selfish desires, there is no sense of friendship at all.
…
The battlefield has reached a stalemate.
All waiting.
Zhang Yi arranged for the men and horses to take the opportunity to rest and replenish their diet to restore their physical strength.
When the warriors from Mopan City arrive in Chang'an, they will cooperate with each other internally and externally, and they will surely be able to annihilate the rebels in one fell swoop.
At this time, Wu Rui and his son could no longer command their exhausted troops, so they could only surround the palace and wait for General Liu Guangda to arrive with tens of thousands of troops. By then no one would be able to resist.
The palace is not Mopan City. There is no danger to fall back on. There is only a sandbag wall left. The northwest wolf cavalry can rush over with a single charge.
Although the Zhang Yi brothers are brave, they are weak after all. Even if they beat Wu Rui to death, they would not believe that they were strong enough to create another miracle.
"Thief to your mother, Liu Wazi..." Wu Liang stood by the window of the wooden building, looking at Zhang Yi brothers who were eating and drinking, and cursed. He suddenly scratched his head and said, "Hey, that's not right, father, they are called the Six Tigers of China, what's wrong with you?"
We only saw four people? Where did the little fat guy and the big black guy go?"
The little fat guy is Shi Gandang, and the big black guy is Niuben.
When Wu Liang shouted, Wu Rui also panicked, but he pretended to be calm.
"They must have taken advantage of the chaos to rush out to move reinforcements. It doesn't matter. The journey is long and it will take time for them to organize the troops." Wu Rui looked towards the palace and said with a sneer, "It's too late. Before the troops from Mopan City arrived, Liu Guang's mind
Here comes the simple guy, I said I should respect him as king, he can run faster than a rabbit!"
"My father is unparalleled in his resourcefulness and has defeated all those fools, hehehe!" Wu Liang felt relieved, clapped his hands and laughed.
Little did they know that Zhang Yi knew things well and was a beat faster than Wu Rui.
