I will obey your orders." The captain named Zhang hurried down to the city. The gate of Yangshan Pass was opened, and a thousand defenders lined up in several rows. They ran out of the city neatly, passed the suspension bridge, crossed the moat, and formed a military formation. In the middle
They separated, leaving a way for the fleeing army to enter the city.
"General Ma, enter the city quickly!" Zhang Duwei, the leader of the defenders, stood among the infantry and shouted loudly at Ma Yiping, who was running away, abandoning his helmet and armor.
"Thank you Captain Zhang!" Ma Yiping raised his hand to the Captain. His face was scarred and the corners of his mouth were stained with blood. It was obvious that the two of them knew each other well.
Four to five hundred defeated soldiers stepped onto the suspension bridge and ran into the city gate. At the same time, the trebuchets began to roar on the city. The stone bullets fired by the trebuchets with a range of several miles flew towards the cavalry of the Far Eastern Army who were rushing towards them. The eight-oxen crossbows fired
The sound of a crossbow roared.
Seeing that Ma Yiping had been successfully escorted into the city, Dugu Cheng'e breathed a sigh of relief, clenched his fists and murmured to himself: "King Qin An's men and horses..."
The stone bullets were still in the air, and the neat cavalry of the Iron Spear Battalion of the Far Eastern Army in the distance suddenly scattered in all directions, widening a huge distance. The knight on the horse flipped his wrist, and small iron shields appeared in his hands.
Protecting the vital points, he still galloped forward on horseback.
"What a fast reaction speed, what superb riding skills!" Dugu Cheng'e felt awe-inspiring in his heart, and his body trembled slightly. He was the one who sent him specially to the Dugu family after the Dugu family and Wang Junlin completely broke up with each other more than two years ago.
This position was actually to curb Wang Junlin's expansion of power from the southwest. His status as a Dugu clan destined him to be unable to surrender in the face of the Far Eastern Army, and he could only fight to the death.
The first round of long-range strikes had very poor results. There were thousands of Iron Spear Battalion cavalrymen in the first wave of attacks, but only a dozen of them were knocked off their horses.
With a buzz, the second round of shooting started again.
At this time, Ma Yiping had already rushed into the city gate with half of the hundreds of defeated troops. The captain outside had begun to order the troops to retreat slowly, preparing to enter the city gate and then close the city gate.
However, at this time, a sudden change occurred.
Ma Yiping, who was riding on the horse, shouted loudly, "Kill!" He shook his arm, flicked the spear in his hand, and stabbed the leading garrison officer in the city gate to death in the chest.
Ma Yiping suddenly got angry and followed him.
The panting soldiers instantly transformed into the incarnation of the God of Death. They raised their wrists and took out a rapid-fire crossbow from their clothes. With a whooshing sound, the defenders in the city gate were caught off guard and were shot down one by one.
, these murderous soldiers rushed up to grab the weapons dropped by the defenders, shouted "Kill" in unison, and then went inside to kill.
At the same time, outside the city gate, the other half of the defeated soldiers who had weapons also shouted "kill", turned around, took out a repeating crossbow in their left hand, and fired at the defenders behind them who were originally protecting them.
When they came out, more than 200 people, more than 200 nine-shot rapid crossbows, fired a volley, and the 1,000 people who had their backs turned to them fell down in confusion.
Then, a man among the defeated troops rose into the air, reaching a height of three feet. Two flying knives whirled from his hands and flew away. With two clatters, the thick rope of the suspension bridge was immediately cut off. This man was from the Far East.
The captain of the military special forces unit is himself a skilled soldier.
Except for Ma Yiping, all the others in this group of defeated troops were dressed as masters of the Far Eastern Army's special operations team.
The sudden turn of events made Captain Zhang, who was escorting Ma Yiping into the city from outside the city, stunned for a long time. Then he suddenly reacted and rushed forward with the remaining 400 people.
Dugu Cheng'e, who was on the city, was also not slow to react. Something unexpected happened below the city. He understood what was going on and shouted: "Ma Yiping rebelled and surrendered to the enemy. Come on, kill him and take back the city gate. Zhang Wuping, you lead the people."
We must take back the city gate and kill them, otherwise you will all die."
Dugu Cheng'e made a huge mistake in his haste. He should not have ordered Captain Zhang, who was out of the city to meet him, to lead his troops to charge back. Dugu Cheng'e wanted to attack from both sides, quickly annihilate his opponents and recapture the city gate, but he did not
Unexpectedly, Zhang Wuping's more than 400 people who were still alive at this time rushed towards the city gate and blocked the city gate hole to death. Let alone closing the city gate at this time, the people who were blocked in the city gate hole were blocked.
It is difficult for people to even turn around.
Both sides are fighting desperately. One side knows that if the city gate cannot be recaptured and the enemy cavalry rushes into the city, it will be a dead end. The other side also knows that if the city gate hole cannot be defended and the opponent closes the city gate, all previous efforts will be wasted.
He said that none of them would survive.
This kind of chaotic desperate fighting is what the masters of the special forces are best at, so even though they only have about 500 people, they can still hold the city gate firmly.
However, that
More than 400 people led by Zhang Wuping also knew that it was a matter of life and death. They gritted their teeth and thrust the knives in their hands forward. Those in front fell, and those behind were crowded and went to the front line. Even though
There were those who were afraid of death, but no one took a step back. They were worthy of being the elite soldiers trained by the Dugu family.
The captain of the special force knew that this was the critical moment to seize the city. The two short knives in his hands danced like windmills, protecting his vital points. Even so, he also had several feather arrows hanging on his body. Fortunately, he was well-armored.
, although he was injured, it was not fatal and did not affect his combat effectiveness.
"Kill!" The squad leader's eyes widened as he advanced step by step, killing one person every time he took a step forward.
Behind him, the cavalry of the Iron Spear Battalion rushed in. The galloping cavalry rushed onto the suspension bridge and rushed into the city gate. The more than 400 defenders blocking the front were either killed or hacked to death. The knights on horseback in front
The war horse collided with the crowd and stopped suddenly. The horse's head was broken, and the knight on the horse flew up like a cloud and mist, and the spear in his hand was already stabbing at the defenders below.
"Block the opening, block it, fight out, fight out!" Dugu Cheng'e's eyes were red, he waved his sword and shouted loudly.
But as more and more Far Eastern Army cavalry rushed up, Zhang Wuping led the remaining more than 400 elite soldiers outside the city to death. The soldiers in the city could no longer stop them and retreated step by step. In the distance, the sound of war drums sounded.
With a sound, 20,000 Iron Spear Battalion infantry appeared in everyone's field of vision.
Dugu Cheng'e's eyes burst out. He saw more and more Far Eastern Army cavalry rushing into the city. He desperately drew his sword and wanted to rush in personally. Several soldiers held him back and shouted: "General, the city gate
If you can't take it back, go back to the city and go to the west gate. At the west gate, organize an army to fight back and take back Yangshan Pass."
The east city collapsed in an instant. The cavalry rushed into the city wildly and fought all the way along the streets. One troop directly rode up the stairs and rushed to the top of the city, chasing down the soldiers above the city.
The infantrymen in the distance took off their stride and ran towards them. The captain who led the team shouted: "Brothers, hurry up, the victory will be all the special forces and cavalry later. By then we won't even be able to drink soup."
Already."
"Come on!" The infantrymen of the Iron Spear Battalion happily spread their legs and rushed toward Yangshan Pass.
