Fear is an infectious disease, and death is also an infectious disease. The bombs buried underground exploded one after another, and the flying smoke covered the sky. Only the screams and cries could be heard, but the miserable condition of the injured Vietnamese soldiers could not be seen.
.There was no such thing as bombs in the past. Both sides fought with white knives going in and red knives coming out. The best thing was that people were turned upside down by random arrows. But now that there are bombs, war seems to have become simpler.
Han said that he was holding down Huo Jin tightly, for fear that the kid would hit the wrong tendon and rush in, only to be slightly injured. If he was fatally injured, Han said that even if he had ten heads, Su Ren wouldn't be enough to cut him off.
Yu Shan led the vanguard battalion at the front and was lucky to escape the explosion. When the movement behind him came, Yu Shan was stunned. For a moment, he didn't understand what happened. He only saw smoke and dust flying all over the sky.
and the faintly visible stumps and broken arms, but nothing else could be seen clearly. Ten thousand soldiers and horses were struggling in the hellish rain of blood, no one could care about anyone, and no one could be spared.
Su Ren was sitting on the top of the mountain opposite, drinking tea. He had eaten too many lychees and needed to use tea to detoxify. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, he didn't want to have a red face and a thick neck when he went to the hut tomorrow morning.
Huang Shisan stood next to Su Ren. A dozen guards faced down the mountain, surrounding Su Ren. They all looked around warily. If there was the slightest sign of trouble, they would unceremoniously pull out their crossbows and fire them.
arrow.
"The effect is good. I hope Wu Zhu was killed by the bomb. I'm still waiting to take him back and present him as a prisoner to His Majesty!" Su Ren was lying uncomfortably. The grass here was not thick enough. He was lying down with his diaphragmatic elbows
It hurts.
Huang Shisan did not answer, but just looked at the battlefield on the opposite side quietly. The smoke and dust were dissipating, and the soldiers and horses lying in ambush rushed out and charged around the Yue people. The frightened Yue people did not react at all, and they were all stunned.
Standing on the spot, he was stunned and allowed to be hacked. Hawking was the most courageous. He drove a long halberd into the crowd of people, as if he was in an uninhabited land.
He rushed to the carriage with a quick stride and swiped his halberd. Several Vietnamese soldiers who had managed to gather were beaten and staggered. The carriage also had traces of being hit by stones, and was badly damaged in several places. He turned around and stared at the carriage with his back.
They scanned the Yue people with their eyes. They could clearly see Hawking's bravery just now. The god-like figure was right in front of them. At this moment, some people had already turned around and ran away.
"A bunch of wimps!" Hawking spat hard and opened the curtain of the carriage. A trembling maid and a sick and almost dead man appeared in front of Hawking.
Wu Zhu, Hawking recognized him. When he first came to Kuaiji, Wu Zhu led people to intercept and kill them, and that time he almost killed the Minyue King. This was the second time the two met, and Hawking laughed: "It's really you.
!Let’s go?”
Wu Zhu sighed: "I can't leave anymore. Either you carry me on your back or chop off my head and take it back."
"Chopping off your head won't do. Brother said he would hand you over to the emperor for at least a thousand dollars. I didn't expect you to be so valuable!"
"Haha!" Wu Zhu smiled helplessly: "One thousand dollars is really a lot!"
Huo Jin reached out and picked up Wu Zhu by the waist. He was holding a halberd in one hand and holding Wu Zhu in the other hand and got out of the carriage. When Han said that Huo Jin had succeeded, he immediately shouted: "Wu Zhu is captured, and the one who surrenders will avoid death!"
"No one will be captured, and those who surrender will avoid death!" the Han army shouted together, and the Yue people who had no intention of fighting in the first place even lost their fighting spirit.
Yu Shan galloped on his horse, trying to save the defeat. Unfortunately, he was not good at it. Just after two laps, the horse stumbled and he fell down. If it were not for the quick eyesight and quick hands of the Prime Minister, he would have been trampled to pieces.
Yu Shan heard the Han people's shouts clearly and turned to ask the Prime Minister.
"This, my father has been captured?"
The Prime Minister looked up to the sky and sighed: "Prince, we have been defeated!"
"No! We haven't been defeated yet. We still have troops and horses, and we can still fight the Han people!"
The Prime Minister grabbed Yu Shan and said to the soldiers behind him: "Immediately protect the prince and rush out. No matter where you go, never come back again!"
Without any explanation, Yu Shan was carried onto the horse and rushed out surrounded by more than a dozen guards. Su Ren saw it clearly, stood up in a hurry, pointed at the group of Yue people in the northwest corner, and said:
"What? There are important people inside? Could it be that Wu Zhu ran away?"
Huang Shisan whistled, and someone immediately ran down the mountain on horseback. The news came back soon. Su Ren smiled: "It just so happens that Zhengchou has no excuse. As soon as Yu Shan ran away, it became a matter of course. Tell them that they must let Yu
Enter South Vietnam alive and well."
The battle outside the royal city was quite brutal. Although it was a sneak attack, the number of people was not superior. Starting from dusk, the battle continued until the moon was high in the sky. Many Yue people took advantage of the night to escape. However, the overall situation was decided, and there would be no more
What kind of waves were found? Su Ren stood up and patted his butt: "Pack your things and go down the mountain!"
Li Danghu also came down from the mountain. Li Gan relied on the favorable terrain and the fortifications they built to withstand more than a dozen fierce attacks by General Feihu. Both sides lit fires in the open space, and a night battle was inevitable. Outside the village wall
There were layers upon layers of corpses, both Yue and Han. Of course, Yue corpses accounted for 90% of the total. Today’s battle was the most brutal battle Li Danghu fought. In the past, he followed his father on expeditions, even if he faced the Huns.
I have never fought so hard.
Li Danghu saw the fatigue on Li Gan's face, patted Li Gan on the shoulder and nodded: "Very good, this is my son-in-law of the Li family."
Wiping the blood on his face, Li Gan smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry, as long as I'm here, they won't be able to break in."
"There is no need to hold on anymore. You have been fighting very hard all afternoon. I can see clearly. Take your people and retreat. I will handle the rest."
Li Gan was suddenly startled: "Is it possible? If something goes wrong, the energy we have finally accumulated will be gone."
"Su Ziheng said it can be done. You have seen the power of that thing. If these people hadn't come suddenly, I wouldn't have let you fight to stay here."
Li Gan nodded: "Brother is right, we can definitely make the Yue people never come back!"
The two brothers exchanged a few words, and Li Gan called on the soldiers stationed on the wall to rest with him. They fought hard all afternoon, and were almost exhausted even if they did not die in battle. If it had been before, these county soldiers would have been killed.
He ran away. Li Danghu's ability to train soldiers comes from his family, and the results he can achieve in a short period of time are already very good.
General Feihu saw the lights in the Han army camp shaking, and seemed to want to dispatch troops. He quickly said: "Go quickly, send someone to see if the Han reinforcements have arrived?"
The scout immediately went to check, and soon got the news: "General, the Han people are changing their defenses."
"Hahaha... they finally couldn't hold on any longer. This is a good opportunity!" General Feihu laughed. While laughing, he searched around him with his eyes: "Zhi Cheng, where is Zhi Cheng? I ordered you to lead the three
Thousands of soldiers and horses attacked immediately, taking advantage of the Han army's change of defense to break through the second wall in one fell swoop!"
Zhi Cheng rolled his eyes: "This is the plan of the Han army, and I, the general, cannot obey it!"
"You!" General Feihu was furious: "Now I am the commander-in-chief, and you are just the deputy-general. You don't respect the general. Do you think my sword is not fast enough?"
"Then just kill me. Take others with you. Three thousand people will die. Now it's worth it to kill one of me!"
"Bastard! Someone, drag Zhi Cheng aside and behead him!"
Someone quickly advised: "General, calm down. What the general said makes sense. The Han people have always been treacherous. We have been attacking for an entire afternoon but were unable to break through the second wall. Under such circumstances, they should not change their defenses."
"Hmph! The Han troops are few and tired. There is nothing wrong with taking advantage of the opportunity to change defenses. I, the general, order you to lead the charge immediately and don't come back until you take down the second wall!"
The Yue people came again, and Li Danghu saw it clearly. The steps were the same as those of many previous attacks. First there was a charge. The tall wooden shield was erected in front of him, and the archers hid behind it. He was about to approach the stronghold.
On the wall, the archers fired continuously to suppress the Han army's obstruction. This time they were very careful. After so many experiences, they knew that there were many traps on the wall, and even under the wall, there was no wooden shield to protect them.
Remove.
The wind was calm and the Han army seemed to be no longer in the stronghold. The brave Yue people moved their wooden shields to a gap and looked through the gap in the logs. As expected, there was nothing in the stronghold wall, so they shouted: "Nothing."
Man, the Han army has escaped!"
The Vietnamese soldiers were so happy that they rushed up to the wall of the village in twos and twos, climbed over, stepped on the dead body to avoid the wooden sticks, and looked around vigilantly. After confirming that no one was really there, they hurried to the village gate. When the gate of the village was closed,
Opening it, General Feihu laughed loudly and looked back at Zhi Cheng, his eyes full of contempt and pride.
"Don't go, it's a Han trap!"
No matter how Zhi Cheng shouted, General Feihu turned a deaf ear. Piles of county soldiers marched into the camp, quickly occupied it, and began to search inch by inch, hoping to find the Han people in some inconspicuous corner. However, to their disappointment,
, nothing was found, except for empty camps, there was no trace of any Han people.
"General, have the Han troops escaped?" asked the general.
General Feihu looked at the empty camp: "Search, search carefully, these Han people are different from the previous Han people, they will never escape!"
There was another search, and while the Yue people were busy looking for traces of the Han people, Li Danghu bent his bow and set an arrow, aiming the sharp arrow at General Feihu's neck. As soon as he let go, the arrow pierced the air with a scream.
Flying straight towards General Feihu. Hearing the sound of arrows, General Feihu quickly fell to the ground sideways without even thinking. The arrows flew past his cheek, leaving a long gash.
Rockets fell from the sky, covering almost the entire camp. The Yue people were still looking for a place to hide from the arrows, when they suddenly remembered an explosion and the ground trembled. In the smoke, several Yue people flew around, as if they had wings.
"Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow!"
"Boom, boom, boom...!" The successive explosions completely swallowed up General Feihu's order. (To be continued)
