The rain had just stopped, the breeze was caressing, and the cool temperature made the soldiers easily excited. Coupled with the tense and bloody atmosphere in the raging war, the soldiers almost entered the battle with red eyes and white-hot excitement.
The battle ensues.
Chengtianmen is still the focus of the rebel attack.
Not only is it directly connected to the core area of Taiji Palace, but it was also severely damaged during the previous war. There are many gaps in the front of the city, which can make the angle of the ladder more gentle, which is conducive to soldiers' attack. Moreover, Chengtianmen is the main entrance of Taiji Palace.
, once it is captured, it will be of great significance and can greatly improve the morale of the Guanlong army.
At the beginning of the resumption of the war, Changsun Wuji stood outside the Chengtian Gate with his helmet and armor on and his horse, holding a horizontal sword in his hand to personally supervise the battle...
For the current Guanlong clan, they can only complete their efforts in one battle, either completely destroying the East Palace, or destroying the fish and the net, and burying all the private armies in the Tai Chi Palace. Only then can they leave a glimmer of hope for the clan's inheritance.
So Changsun Wuji didn't care at all how many people died, he only cared about whether he could quickly capture Chengtianmen and enter Taiji Palace!
He turned his head, looked at the two brothers Changsun Yan and Changsun Wen beside him, and said in a deep voice: "In the past, your two brothers fought against each other and killed each other. I wish I could kill them with my own hands to relieve the hatred in my heart! Now the family is in danger and the future is uncertain.
, I hope you two can put aside your prejudices and create a bright future for the family and the descendants of the eldest grandson family! Go ahead and each bring five thousand private troops of the family. If you can't attack Chengtianmen, don't come back!"
The two brothers looked pale and frightened.
Seeing the tenacious resistance of the Sixth Army of the East Palace, the Guanlong troops rushed forward and many were killed. The walls near Chengtianmen were already covered with blood and corpses were lying on the pillows. Both sides were furious. If they rushed forward at this time, what would happen to them?
good?
But looking at their father's livid face, the two of them didn't dare to say anything more, otherwise their father might expose them to the sacrifice flag.
After all, the two of them had a really ugly fight before...
There was no other way. The two brothers could only ignore it and said in unison: "Father, don't worry, for the sake of my father's great cause and the prosperity of the family, I will fight to the end and fight to the death!"
Then he rode out, summoned several captains, and each led five thousand people to rush towards Chengtian Gate.
Changsun Wuji was sitting on the horse with no expression, but his hand holding the riding whip was so tight that the veins on the back of his hand protruded... The Chengtian Gate at the moment was like a huge millstone of flesh and blood, and the soldiers on both sides fought bloody battles without retreating.
Countless soldiers died in battle every moment, and the corpses had accumulated a thick layer under the city. The soldiers who followed simply stepped on Paoze's corpse and climbed up the city.
Extremely tragic.
At this time, no matter who leads the army to attack, they will inevitably risk huge casualties. Don't talk about world-famous generals and bravery champions of the three armies. There is no room for personal bravery on such a battlefield. A cold arrow can kill a person.
The thunder that shakes the sky from nowhere can easily harvest lives. No matter how you look at it, you can only rely on luck in the end.
Although I wish I could kill these two sons who were fighting among themselves, how could I not feel distressed when they were actually pushed onto the battlefield and faced with a hail of bullets?
After all, he is a son with blood ties...
But from the moment Changsun Wuji ordered the war to start again, he had already strengthened his determination: no matter what the cost, he must preserve the inheritance of the Changsun family.
It's natural to be sad when your son dies, but as long as you can give a glimmer of hope to the eldest grandson's family, it can be considered a worthy death.
What's more, he has many sons, as long as they don't die...
If you want Li Ji to give up his wariness against the Guanlong clan and the Changsun family, and be willing to support the Guanlong clan to resist and fight against the Shandong aristocratic family and the Jiangnan gentry, you must reduce the strength of the Guanlong clan as much as possible. When all the Guanlong clan All the elite private troops fell on the way to Taiji Palace. What reason did Li Ji have to be afraid of the Guanlong clan?
Moreover, what if we capture the Tai Chi Palace and achieve a complete victory?
The opportunity is not only there, but also huge...
But no matter what, leading the army to the city at this time would be a disaster.
On the side, Yuwen Shiji and Linghu Defen felt their scalps go numb when they saw Changsun Wuji sending his two sons to the bloody battlefield.
Too cruel...
Yu Wenshiji tried to dissuade him: "Auxiliary machine, why are you doing this? The two gentlemen are of the eldest son's family and are noble and respected. There is no need to charge into battle like this and narrowly escape death."
Changsun Wuji shook his head, his eyes swept over the faces of the Guanlong generals behind him, and said solemnly: "The Guanlong clan has been fighting for more than a hundred years, regardless of each other, and they have sacrificed each other. This has created the great authority today, Huanghuang Glory! At this time of rise and fall, let’s start from the eldest grandson’s family, regain the fortitude of our ancestors, and shed the last drop of blood for the Guanlong clan!”
His face was resolute, his words were sonorous, powerful and resounding. His overwhelming aura of "sacrifice me for Guanlong" shocked the hearts of the surrounding Guanlong generals and boosted their morale for a moment!
Everyone knows the truth that "unity makes us stronger", but no one is willing to face the danger of rushing to the front. Now, as the leader of Guanlong, Changsun Wuji would rather sacrifice himself to unite the unity that Guanlong relied on to settle down and live in the past. With their spirit back, how could these Guanlong disciples not feel that determination and domineering power?
"Dong Guo Zhao, let me lead the troops up and replace your son!"
"That's right, we are members of the military. How can we stand here while watching Shiro and Goro charge into battle?"
"I am willing to fight!"
…
For a time, the morale in the Guanlong camp soared, and the sky was full of uproar. A large group of generals rushed to request to go to war.
Changsun Wuji waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Don't be impatient! We are all descendants of Guanlong. How can we distinguish between high and low in this life-and-death situation? Being able to fight and die for Guanlong is a privilege for every one of our descendants. It's an honor. Every family in Guanlong will never forget your spirit of living to face death and treating death as home! Don't worry, when my son is killed in battle, it will be your turn to go into battle to kill the enemy!"
These heroic and tragic words made the blood of the Guanlong disciples around him surge, their eyes red, and their determination to die!
…
Changsun Yan and Changsun Wen each led five thousand elites to join the battlefield, which immediately boosted the morale of the rebels. The densely packed rebels under the city launched a tidal wave of attacks towards the city head, and soon overwhelmed the Sixth Army of the East Palace above the city. Not angry.
Especially the city gate near Chengtianmen, the city wall was severely damaged, resulting in the defense of Donggong Liuli not being rigorous enough, with loopholes everywhere. With the addition of five thousand troops on each side of the battle line, the defense line was immediately in danger, and the rebels had boarded the city several times. Although they were all counterattacked by the defenders, it was almost certain that the defense line would be broken.
This made Changsun Yan and Changsun Wen extremely happy. They originally thought that they were used as cannon fodder by their father to motivate the Guanlong families, but now they are expected to achieve the goal of conquering Chengtianmen first. This is really great. It's surprising...
The two brothers were in high spirits. They changed their docile and evasive posture and were afraid of fighting. They brandished horizontal swords and yelled at the troops under their command, and launched waves of fierce attacks towards Chengtianmen.
"Come on! Charge on!"
Changsun Wen, who was charging, heard the shouts of the soldiers around him. When he raised his head, he saw that his own soldiers had indeed rushed to a gap in the city wall, breaking up the defending Donggong Sixth Army, and charging into the city in a steady stream.
Changsun Wen became energetic and shouted: "You will be rewarded if you rush in!"
Then he led his soldiers to charge hard and kill him.
Behind him, in the night, Changsun Wuji saw that Changsun Wen's side had climbed onto the city wall, and follow-up troops were catching up one after another. The defenders on the city were gradually exhausted and unable to resist. More and more Guanlong troops rushed towards them.
Go up the city wall.
Changsun Wuji was overjoyed. The Chengtian Sect had been breached again, which meant that the Sixth Army of the East Palace had indeed seen a sudden drop in combat power without replenishment as he had expected. All he had to do was drive straight in, and the entire Taiji Palace would be within his grasp.
Then he worried again, it seemed that it was too easy to rush to the city this time. Could it be another plan of Dong Gong Liu to lure the enemy deeper?
That bastard from Cheng Yaojin's family showed up before and planted a large amount of gunpowder under Yu Chengtian's gate. This caused Guanlong's army to fly with limbs and corpses lying on the pillow, and even knocked him off his horse and broke his leg...
He suppressed the idea that had just arisen, thinking that no defender general with any brain would be able to deliberately abandon the Chengtianmen position to lure the enemy deeper. After all, once Chengtianmen was breached, the Sixth Army of the East Palace would
It is difficult to resist the sudden attack of the Guanlong army. Defeat may occur in an instant, and the risk is too great.
Cheng Chubi is also Cheng Yaojin’s son after all. How could he be so stupid?
...However, at the next moment, an earth-shaking roar sounded in his ears, making his ears buzz. A black smoke rose into the sky in front of his eyes, mixed with countless broken bricks and tiles, as well as the broken limbs of Guanlong soldiers.
arm.
The horse's front hooves raised up and neighed, almost throwing Changsun Wuji off the horse again.
Changsun Wuji finally controlled the frightened horse. His ears were buzzing and he couldn't hear what the panicked crowds were shouting. Looking at the messy Chengtianmen with smoke and dust flying in front of him, a mouthful of old blood rushed into his throat. He swallowed hard.
He swallowed, but didn't swallow it back. He opened his mouth and spit it out with a "wow" sound.
Then his eyes went black and he fell backward.
The last thought before he passed out - Cheng Yaojin, you idiot, how could you give birth to such a single-minded fool as Cheng Chubi...
