The cover of this folding umbrella is twice as large as that of an ordinary umbrella. It is also an auxiliary defense weapon developed by the Far East Army's Military Intelligence Office. It is used to reduce the buffering force when jumping from high places. It is unknown what material the umbrella cover is made of.
It turned out to be extremely strong. A shower of arrows was shot down from the city wall, hitting the umbrella. After a burst of rain hitting banana trees, although the umbrella was damaged, it blocked all the arrows from the thirteen killers.
, fell on the ground, the thirteen people's figures flickered, and quickly disappeared into the night.
Not long after, people from all over the city began to shout that Li Jing had been killed in the battle and the city gate had been breached. The entire Boling County city began to fall into chaos.
At the same time, at the city gate below, in less than ten seconds, more than 2,000 Boling County infantrymen guarding the city gate were killed by nearly 10,000 cavalry led by Xiong Kuohai. The rest had fled far away.
Several Boling County generals desperately mobilized their troops to surround and capture the city gate, but Xiong Kuohai led nearly 10,000 elite cavalry to firmly hold the city gate until Wang Junlin came outside the city to command the army.
Enter the city.
The city of Boling County was destroyed.
…………
…………
Cui Shenggang rode wildly, facing the strong wind, his hair disheveled. In the gloomy night, he didn't know how many soldiers and horses escaped with him. Looking back in panic, he could only see a torrent of torches rolling in from afar, tightly.
Sneak behind them.
He had originally led people to capture the assassins in the city and search for his children and grandchildren. They didn't know how the city was destroyed or how Li Jing died or disappeared, so they felt that they were defeated inexplicably.
Just before, although a large number of assassins appeared in the city, burned part of the food and grass, and poisoned most of their clansmen, they still felt that Boling County City was impregnable.
There are still about 100,000 reinforcements. They can at least drag the Far Eastern Army to death and force them to return without success. However, they never expected that the West City Gate would be broken open in such a strange or incomprehensible manner.
When he got the news, the city was already in chaos. The generals could not be found, and the generals could not find soldiers. Fires broke out everywhere, and there were roars and fights everywhere.
In the dark night, the city was far away
There was an endless stream of soldiers from the Eastern Army, and with God's help, they quickly divided into three groups and attacked the other three city gates. The defenders' strength was simply not enough to resist. Originally, there were more than 20,000 troops on the city wall, but after the city wall was lowered,
, had been cut into pieces by the chaos in the city, and then divided and surrounded. It was difficult to provide any support to the three city gates. They could not hold on for long, and most of them were killed.
Including Cui Shenggang, all the Boling County generals learned that Li Jing was dead and the Cui family's ancestral home was almost wiped out. They made a decisive decision and immediately led their soldiers to attack the East City. Even though they knew that the Far Eastern Army was besieging the city and deliberately left
There are bound to be traps when trying to make a living out of Dongcheng. At this time, they can only bite the bullet and break through. If they don't leave and wait until dawn, they may die under the knife of some unknown Far Eastern Army soldier.
The generals at all levels pulled up their big flags and rushed all the way to Dongcheng, shouting to gather troops. Finally, Cui Shenggang also fled to Dongcheng. Many soldiers from Boling County who were fighting in various directions gathered together when they saw Cui Shenggang's big flag and followed him to the city.
Escape from Dongcheng.
Along the way, they fought several battles with the Far Eastern Army who were pursuing or encountering them. Cui Shenggang and more than 7,000 people finally rushed out of Boling County before the East City Gate was closed.
"Ah!" With a scream, a soldier in front suddenly fell to the ground with his horse and man. Cui Shenggang was shocked and said that there was an ambush in front. At this time, the cavalry rushing in front fell to the ground one after another, including his man and his horse.
Hearing people shouting for horses to neigh, but not seeing anyone getting up, Cui Shenggang suddenly realized and shouted: "There are horse traps all ahead, run to the north, there are our reinforcements there."
In the dark, Cui Shenggang did not distinguish between the road and the wilderness, so he led his men and horses and turned north. After this delay, the pursuers were approaching. The torrent of soldiers with torches flew in all directions, heading straight to attack the head, middle, tail, and other parts of the army where they were.
One of them shot at a stone's throw in front of them, obviously determined to win, and he would never be allowed to escape again.
Cui Shenggang suddenly reined in his horse and looked to the west. It was dark there, and he didn't know how many horse traps had been dug. Looking to the south, he saw vast mountains and forests, going around Boling County. Looking to the east, he saw two torrents of torches.
Like two sharp arrows, they shot at his vitals. Cui Shenggang was filled with grief and anger. He suddenly picked up the reins of his horse, drew his sword in his hand, and shouted: "I would rather die in battle than die."
If you don’t surrender, fight back!”
"Kill, kill, kill!" The responses came one after another. Cui Shenggang heard it and felt greatly relieved. He thought that the food, grass and military pay over the years had not been in vain. The number of soldiers who escaped from the city with them was at least about 6,000. These
The men and horses might be able to fight, and maybe... we can even find a way out.
Cui Shenggang shouted loudly, knocked the horse's belly, and led his men to meet the pursuer who was heading toward his center without hesitation.
In hot pursuit was the Xiongwu camp led by Wang Bodang with 10,000 horses, and Yuchi Jingde leading 10,000 horses waiting outside the city. At this time, the 20,000 horses saw the remaining soldiers of Boling County and rushed towards them like trapped animals.
, they all secretly sneered. There was no way to light up the flag in the night, and they were too anxious to give orders with drums and music. The two Far Eastern Army generals immediately used torches to play lights and semaphores, ordering the army to surround the enemy in a circle and disperse their formation.
, floods generally pressed down on the remaining troops of Boling County.
"kill!"
There was still room for two arrows on both sides. Wang Bodang's army suddenly split again and became three arrows. The charging troops sticking out from the front were like two sharp knives, plundering the remaining troops of Boling County.
The wedge-shaped formation galloped past from both sides, detouring around the flanks, galloping and shooting. The rain of arrows in the sky was like a knife, constantly cutting into Cui Shenggang's men and horses. From time to time, someone fell off the horse, chipping away at the wedge-shaped formation.
Thin.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The two sides were not fighting hand-to-hand, but their eyes were already red. All the knights raised their sabers high, lifted their butts off the saddle, put their feet straight on their stirrups, and took on the posture of a fight to the death.
The teams on both sides collided violently, just like the sharp tip of a bow and arrow hitting a crossbow shot from a crossbow. The tip of the bow and arrow immediately became blunt. The cavalry can only show its power during a charge.
Arrow, how much of a threat is it?
The difference in strength between the two sides was really huge. Nearly 20,000 Yuanle troops surrounded them, like huge circles of halo in the dark night, slowly closing in on the middle, while the remnants of the Boling County army trapped in the middle were like a
Only fireflies flow.
Liu Ying's life was short. They fell one by one. In the end, the small ring surrounded the big ring. Only more than a thousand people were left. Under the leadership of Cui Shenggang, they knelt down and surrendered.
