When Chun Yuhua saw his generals being hacked to death by the opponent's sword from behind the formation, his face immediately filled with anger. He said to the generals beside him: "Li Jun has been following me for many years, and today he was killed in the formation. Which one
People go up and avenge Li Jun."
Just as he finished speaking, someone next to him shouted: "Jiedu Envoy, the last general is incompetent, go and meet this person."
After saying this, he urged his horse to the front of the formation without waiting for Chun Yuhua's instructions.
When Chun Yuhua saw that it was this person, he immediately felt relieved. It turned out that this person was none other than Chun Yuhua's eldest son, Chun Yushou. This son had followed Chun Yuhua into battles to kill enemies since he was a child.
He also experienced good martial arts skills.
Chunyu Shouti came to the front of the battle with a steel gun in his hand, pointed it at Niu Yong and said: "Listen to the rebels on the opposite side, if you repent, dismount and surrender, I can spare your life. If not, I will spare your life."
My gun cannot recognize anyone."
Niu Yong looked at the young man in brocade robes who rushed out from the opposite side and smiled coldly, "You don't know where the world comes from. I will take your father to teach you a lesson today."
After Niu Yong finished speaking, he held up the Qinglong Yanyue Sword and went straight to Chunyu Shou.
Chun Yushou was not weak either. He waved the bright silver spear in his hand to parry the opponent's sword.
The two men fought in front of the formation, and all they saw was: the cold light flashing knife was like snowflakes, and the wind and thunder spear was like thunder. One was Guan Yunchang coming back to the world, and the other was Jin Machao showing off his power. This one's Qinglong sword is as heavy as a thousand gold, and that one's
The bright silver spear monster turned over.
The two men fought for a long time in front of the formation. They really met their opponents and were about to meet good talents.
Chun Yuhua saw how powerful the opponent was from behind the formation. He was worried that his son would be injured in front of the formation, so he quickly ordered several generals around him to go forward to support him.
So immediately three or four people rushed out of the formation and went straight to Niu Yong. This time Niu Yong was a little unable to resist. He was originally fighting against Chun Yushou, but he didn't know that three or four more people came. He blocked the left and right.
, a Qinglong Yanyue Sword flew up and down, but if it was held for a long time, it would be lost. If one was not careful, Chun Yushou shot him in the left rib.
This Niu Yong is also very powerful. He gritted his teeth and shot away the weapons on the left and right, then moved the BMW on his crotch and retreated into the formation.
In those days, the servants saw Niu Yong retreating in defeat, and hurriedly hugged him back into the city.
Chunyu Hua saw the opponent's retreat, smiled slightly, and immediately ordered the horns to be blown, and ordered the troops to start attacking the city.
From the tower, Niu Jizhong clearly saw the battle below the city. Originally, he saw Niu Yong bravely kill one of the opponent's generals, and then stood with another person for dozens of rounds, without any distinction, but he didn't know that the opponent rushed out again.
Several people came, but Niu Yong was defeated and retreated to the city.
Now seeing that the opponent has begun to attack the city again, he can only defend the city with all his strength.
So he ordered the servants and servants on the city to start carrying the arches and stones, and kept firing arrows to attack the Gongcheng soldiers below.
The soldiers of Baoding Prefecture were originally elite. After Jia Ke's reorganization, these people were well equipped. Now they are approaching the city wall step by step with large shields, and the ramming vehicles and catapults behind them are also following up.
There were countless people carrying ladders and approaching the city wall.
After the soldiers approached the city wall, the crossbowmen behind immediately fired arrows at the city wall to suppress the counterattack overhead.
Others were either carrying ladders to the city wall, or using siege engines to continuously hit the city gates, and then they used catapults to continuously throw huge stones at the city tower.
Chunyu Hua also ordered his archers to approach the city wall and provide support to the attacking soldiers.
The servants and servants on the city wall also fought back desperately, but since these people were not from the military after all, the actions they took were very limited.
Chunyu Hua's one wave of attacks caused huge losses to the city. If it weren't for the reinforcements from Niu Jizong and his trusted servants, the north wall of the capital would have been breached.
Chun Yuhua looked at the first wave of attacks. Although it had some effect, the soldiers were tired and suffered some losses. It was time to replace the group, so he began to withdraw his troops.
When the soldiers under the city wall heard the sound of ringing gold, they took the city's military equipment and returned to the formation one by one.
Although these soldiers were retreating, their formation was not disordered. They retreated neatly into the main formation.
When Niu Jizong saw this situation, his scalp went numb. Didn't these soldiers feel it? So many people died and they had already begun to retreat. There was no expression on their faces and the team was not in any disarray.
Niu Jizong looked at the servants and servants upstairs again. They had already suffered heavy losses, and many of the remaining people were probably injured. They now saw that the attacking soldiers below the city had retreated, and they were all sitting on the wall without any image, mouthing.
He began to pant, feeling grateful that he could survive this time.
After the first wave of soldiers retreated, Chunyu Hua wanted to send a second wave of people to attack the city, but was stopped by Fan Kang.
Chunyu Hua looked at Fan Kang in confusion, and then asked: "Sir, the people in the city are no different from the newly recruited famous men. As long as we fight to the death and attack a few more times, we will definitely be able to break through the city."
Fan Kang smiled and then said: "There is no need to waste the lives of the warriors. We will wait until other groups of people arrive and surround the capital. Then we will make plans."
After Fan Kang finished speaking, he ordered the troops to start returning to the camp, so Chun Yuhua led the troops back to the camp one by one.
However, although Fan Kang wanted to wait until several other people arrived before making a decision, he did not just relax. He sent out all the cavalry from Baoding Prefecture to search around the capital to prevent the traitors in the capital from escaping.
.
Niu Jizong watched from the tower that the enemy troops had retreated. After heaving a sigh of relief, he ordered his men to guard and defend to the death, and never let Fan Kang have the opportunity to make a sneak attack.
After the explanation, Niu Jizong came to the city tower. When King Zhongshun saw Niu Jizong coming in, he quickly stood up to greet him.
"General Niu, thank you for your hard work this time. I heard from my men that the enemy has retreated?"
Niu Jizong nodded silently, and then replied: "It is very difficult to defeat the enemy this time. Our servants have suffered heavy losses. If they come again a few times, these people will be almost exhausted."
King Zhongshun also began to frown after hearing this. These servants collected from various households have been practicing martial arts for many years. Although they do not have the same training formations as those soldiers, they are the main force in defending the city. If these people are all gone, like below
Those young men and strong men who had just picked up the weapons would probably disperse as soon as the enemy attacked the city.
"Then what does General Niu think we should do?"
There is nothing Niu Jizong can do now. He has all kinds of clever tricks, but he can't use them even with absolute strength. What's more, he has lost the vigor he had in those years after being pampered and pampered.
"We can only take one step at a time and see one step at a time."
King Zhongshun was silent after hearing this. Now that he had reached the point of no retreat, he could only hold on reluctantly.
After King Zhongshun exchanged a few words with Niu Jizong, he returned to the palace with his servants.
By this time, Prince Yoshitaka had been waiting for him in the palace for a long time.
"Emperor's nephew, how is the situation outside?"
"Uncle Youlao is worried about you. Niu Jizong is still quite capable. He has led his men to repel a wave of attacks from the opponent. Now that the opponent has returned to camp, it seems that there will be no more fighting today."
After hearing this, Prince Yixiao breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Let's go see the emperor. We must be united now."
King Zhongshun could only nod. If he had known this earlier, he would not have hijacked the emperor. He might have had a chance of survival if the emperor had been pushed to the front. But now that he has become the mastermind of this matter, the emperor might be able to
Although he escaped, he will definitely die if King Zhongshun is caught.
Prince Yixiao and King Zhongshun came to the backyard of the palace, in front of a small building, which was heavily guarded and was where King Zhongshun imprisoned the emperor.
The two of them followed the stairs to the upper floor, where they saw the emperor reading a book leisurely and leisurely.
After the emperor noticed that they had come up, he just glanced at them and ignored them, holding a book and continuing to talk.
Seeing the emperor's appearance, Prince Yixiao stepped forward helplessly and said: "Your Majesty, Jia Ke's men have already reached the capital. We just fought with him and repelled him. Now come and see the emperor."
the meaning of."
The emperor put down the book slowly and said, "I am now your prisoner. What can you do? It is up to you to decide what to do in this world."
The emperor was so stable because he knew that King Zhongshun did not dare to do anything to him, otherwise the royal family would be divided. In this case, the city would be breached in one day.
It is said that Jia Ke came in, and he was Jia Ke's primary target as a puppet. For the sake of Jia Yuanchun and his children, Jia Ke would not take his life.
King Zhongshun had already seen the emperor's plan. He took a step forward and said angrily: "Are you so relieved that Jia Ke won't kill you?"
The emperor stood up from his seat, walked to King Zhongshun, stared at him and said, "Even if Jia Ke kills me, he will not harm Jia Yuanchun and her children. My bloodline has been saved. You
Think about your lineage, as soon as Jia Ke conquers the city, he will kill everyone in his family."
After the emperor finished speaking, he burst out laughing. Now the emperor felt that he had no hope of life. As an emperor, he was robbed by these powerful ministers. How could he have any dignity? Now he was determined to die.
King Zhongshun glared at the emperor fiercely, flicked his sleeves and turned around and went downstairs. Prince Yixiao could only helplessly shake his head and followed King Zhongshun out of the small building.
The two of them came to the study room of Prince Zhongshun again, and became silent after sitting down, each thinking about the future.
After a long while, Prince Yoshitaka said: "I see that we are unable to do anything. It's time to think of a way out."
"There is no way out now. Are you still thinking of taking me out and sacrificing my life to Jia Ke?"
After hearing this, Prince Yoshitaka showed anger on his face. He slapped the table and stood up: "I'm confused. I'm already this age. How can I still think about survival? Now I only think about the royal family who followed us in the uprising and their lives."
wife and children."
King Zhongshun looked sad after hearing this. He had already thought that after Jia Ke conquered the capital, these people would be purged. This time he had killed thousands of royals. Even if he went underground, he didn't know what to do.
Account to his ancestors and his father.
Prince Yixiao saw that King Chungshun was silent and knew that there was nothing he could do, so he could only say: "I don't know if there is any way to send some of the children in the family out of the capital to save their lives."
King Zhongshun smiled bitterly after hearing this, "Fan Kang has sent cavalry now and has blocked all the gates of the capital. Although they are unable to surround the capital, we can't get out of each gate."
Prince Yoshitaka didn't think so, "If you can't get out from the main entrance, how can there be an tunnel?"
King Zhongshun's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Uncle, do you know about the secret passage?"
Prince Yoshitaka shook his head. He had only heard rumors about this matter and knew that there were several secret passages in the capital leading to the outside of the city. These were set up by the previous emperor, but he did not use them. As for the past dynasties of this dynasty,
Whether the emperor also set up a secret passage, I'm afraid only the emperor knows.
