Six hundred and twentieth chapters seize the city civil war
Guo Song led the cavalry into Taiyuan City. The sound of horse hooves resounded through the city like mountains collapsing and the ground cracking, frightening the people in the city to close their doors and hide.
On the street, eight thousand soldiers of the Hedong Army were running toward them. Guo Song roared and led his cavalry to kill them. Arrows were fired like raindrops. Guo Song waved to deflect the incoming arrows, and the cavalry behind him raised their shields to resist.
Arrows were flying, and cavalrymen were constantly hit by arrows and knocked off their horses.
In the blink of an eye, Guo Song took the lead to kill in front of the enemy. His halberd was swept across, dozens of spears were broken, and blood and flesh flew everywhere. Guo Song used all his strength to become more and more courageous as he fought. Dead bodies piled up all around, and blood flowed into rivers. Hexi
The army's cavalry also charged into the enemy group, just like cutting wheat. Wherever the cavalry passed, large swaths of Hedong Army soldiers fell, killing them mercilessly and making them invincible.
The most elite 20,000 veterans of the Hedong Army have followed Yuan Lu northward to pursue the enemy. The troops remaining in Taiyuan were all recruits recruited last year. They had poor equipment and low pay. They generally had a dawdling mentality and their morale was very low. When he
After encountering the most powerful Hexi cavalry, they only resisted for a short moment and then quickly collapsed.
The soldiers of the Hedong Army on the street fled into the streets and alleys as fast as possible, just like a strong wind blowing. Just a moment ago, the front was crowded with enemy soldiers. In the blink of an eye, the streets became empty.
Guo Song immediately ordered: "Clear the city according to the established plan!"
The 25,000 cavalry were divided into two teams, and the 15,000 soldiers dismounted one after another to form 150 small teams, which rushed to various streets and alleys to clear out the fleeing Hedong Army soldiers.
Guo Song personally led 10,000 cavalry to attack Jinyang Palace.
Jinyang covers an area of 500 acres and is located in the north of Taiyuan City. The Beiqing Gate of the northeast city wall and the Xuanwu Gate of Jinyang Palace are only a few hundred steps apart. There are tall palace walls on both sides. In other words, Jinyang Palace can be evacuated directly from the North City.
.
The sky was bright and bright, and Yuan Xuanhu stood tiredly on the steps of Xuanwumen Square of Jinyang Palace. The shouts of killing in the distance could be heard clearly. He never dreamed that it was the Hexi Army coming to kill him. How could this be possible?
Although he couldn't believe it, the facts were clearly before him. His old enemy Guo Song had entered the city, and the Yuan family would face annihilation.
There were more than a hundred Yuan family members standing at the bottom of the steps. Except for a dozen Yuan family members who were highly skilled in martial arts and followed Yuan Lu northward, the rest of the Yuan family members were all gathered here.
"Our Yuan family's disaster has arrived. It depends on you whether it can continue."
Yuan Xuanhu suppressed the grief in his heart and took out a booklet and handed it to his third son Yuanchu, "This is the Yuan family's wealth directory distributed all over the world. After you are safe, distribute the wealth to everyone so that everyone can live anonymously and ensure that Yuan
The family’s descendants continue.”
Everyone knelt down and shouted sadly: "Master, please come with us!"
Yuan Xuanhu smiled miserably, "I am already seventy years old. How long can I live? I just want to face Guo Song and see what this big enemy looks like. You go quickly! Dalang and I will defend the Yuan family together.
of honor.”
At this time, the shouts of killing were approaching. Yuan Xuanhu glared at Yuan Chu and said: "You still won't take them away? Do you want my Yuan family to be killed?"
Yuan Chu kowtowed three times, stood up and shouted: "Follow me!"
He led more than a hundred Yuan family members and ran toward Xuanwu Gate under the protection of hundreds of soldiers. Each Yuan family member was carrying a large package filled with gold, pearls, and jade as a means of escape for them.
, the Hexi Army will not kill women and children, their wives and children will be reunited with them in the future.
Xuanwu Gate opens, and in front is a passage that is hundreds of steps long, with high walls on both sides, and at the end in front is Beiqing Gate.
Seeing the Yuan family's children mounting their horses and running out of the Xuanwu Gate, Yuan Xuanhu took out a small bright red bottle from his arms, held it tightly in his hand, and staggered towards the palace.
.........
Ten thousand Hexi Army soldiers stood in the open square in front of Jinyang Palace. The sky was dim, and the city outside Jinyang Palace was also densely packed with soldiers. There were three thousand soldiers in total. They were all soldiers of the Yuan family and were loyal to the Yuan family.
, well-equipped and capable of combat, and commanded by the Yuan and Jin Dynasties.
Three thousand soldiers, armed with bows and arrows, stood ready. Once the Hexi Army entered their firing range, they would not hesitate to kill them.
Yuan Jin also knew that they could not defend Jinyang Palace, and Jinyang Palace would fall sooner or later, but he wanted to buy time for the evacuated Yuan family children. As the heir to the family head, he had a heavy responsibility.
Guo Song stared at Jinyang Palace coldly, waved his sword and said: "Get ready to launch!"
Several soldiers pushed a small cyclone gun forward slowly. It could shoot a 30-pound iron fire laser to a distance of 70 steps. With inertia, the iron fire thunder could stop a hundred steps away. Dozens of soldiers
Holding a large shield to protect the cyclone cannon.
Arrows were immediately fired from the palace city, and dense arrows were shot at the cyclone cannon. Yuan Jin knew very well that the opponent must be using huge rocks to attack the gate, but he never imagined that this would be an extremely powerful weapon.
The big shield withstood the arrow, and a soldier lit the match. With a sound of "Bang!", iron fire thunder shot out at an angle, and all the soldiers of the Hexi Army covered their ears.
The iron fire thunder drew a parabola in the air, flew about seventy steps, landed heavily, and continued to roll forward. Countless pairs of eyes were fixed on this oval iron lump, and finally hit the city gate with a dull sound.
The sound of iron fire thunder stopped.
At this moment, the iron fire thunder exploded, making an earth-shattering explosion. The impact of the air wave overturned the defenders on the top of the city. Countless soldiers covering the city covered their ears in pain and squatted on the top of the city.
But to Guo Song's surprise, the iron-wrapped wooden palace door was a little deformed and was not blown open. The door was not shattered. The problem was that after the iron fire thunder hit the door, it bounced back about two feet. There was no
Hold the palace door tightly.
Guo Song was annoyed and immediately ordered: "Heavy armored infantry, mount the big fire mines, ride and shoot to cover!"
Three thousand cavalry suddenly launched into action. They galloped along the palace wall on horseback, shooting arrows at the top of the city like raindrops. The soldiers on the top of the city were shocked by the explosion just now, and they still haven't woken up. For a while, they were unable to fight back.
, was completely suppressed by the enemy's cavalry fire. Under the cover of the cavalry, four heavy armored infantrymen rushed towards the palace gate carrying a large iron fire mine weighing more than 200 kilograms.
Shield protection.
Yuan Jin saw four heavy armored infantry from the gap at the top of the city. Thinking of the shock just now, he became more and more frightened and shouted: "Don't let them get close, shoot those infantry!"
Hundreds of arrows were still shot at the ten heavy armored infantry, but they were unable to penetrate their armor. The ten heavy armored infantrymen ran closer and closer, and finally arrived in front of the palace gate.
Only then did Yuan Jin wake up and shouted: "Hurry up and roll the wood and stone!"
There are no rolling logs or stones here, only a pile of more than a hundred large stones brought from the imperial garden to hold up the palace gate to prevent the enemy from using ramming wood to break open the palace gate.
Dozens of soldiers rushed down to the top of the city to carry the big rocks, but it was too late. A large iron fire mine weighing more than 200 kilograms held up the gate. A soldier flicked the fire stick and lit the match.
The ten heavily armored soldiers turned around and ran wildly together. The cavalry also left the city wall one after another. After experiencing the first explosion, many soldiers on the city head were frightened and covered their ears and squatted down.
"Boom!"
A large iron fire mine weighing two hundred and thirty kilograms exploded. The power was a hundred times that of a small iron fire mine. The whole earth was shaking. It could be clearly heard in every corner of Taiyuan City. The city walls were shaking violently and began to collapse due to unbearable force.
The war horses were so frightened that they screamed and retreated.
When the smoke cleared, they saw that the palace gate had completely disappeared, and the palace palace inside was clearly visible. The palace walls on both sides also collapsed dozens of feet. Hundreds of soldiers closest to the palace gate were shocked to death, and even the chief general Yuan Jin also collapsed.
Buried by the collapsed palace wall.
Guo Song waved his sword and shouted: "Kill!"
Thousands of cavalry roared at the same time: "Kill -"
The cavalry launched and rushed into Jinyang Palace like a flash flood. The soldiers in the palace resisted and retreated. In the end, they could not outrun the horses of the Hexi Cavalry. Nearly two thousand soldiers were surrounded. They all fought to the death and refused to surrender. What they faced was
There is no suspense in the ending...
More than a hundred Yuan family members escaped from the Beiqing Gate and fled eastward in panic. However, within three miles of their escape, there was a loud sound of horse hooves behind them and thousands of Hexi cavalry caught up with them.
The guard general shouted, and hundreds of soldiers from the Yuan clan rushed forward to block the pursuing enemy troops and cover the escape of the Yuan clan's children. However, their number was still too small and they were instantly surrounded by two thousand cavalry.
Another thousand cavalrymen continued to chase more than a hundred Yuan family members. The cavalrymen received the order to kill without mercy and fired arrows randomly while running. The Yuan family members were all wearing rich clothes and no armor. There was no way they could escape the arrows.
They all screamed that they were hit by arrows and fell from their horses. In just a moment, more than a hundred Yuan family members were killed by random arrows, and no one escaped.
Guo Song knew very well that cutting off the grass must remove the roots. If they were left unkilled, they would become a disaster sooner or later.
In the Ziwei Hall of Jinyang Palace, Yuan Xuanhu wore a soaring crown and the emperor's yellow robe, sitting high on the emperor's couch. This was the first time he wore the yellow robe, and it was also the last moment of his life.
Guo Song walked towards him step by step with his sword in hand. Yuan Xuanhu looked at him for a moment and asked calmly: "Are you Guo Song?"
"Of course!"
Yuan Xuanhu nodded, "I've heard about it for a long time!"
“Each other!”
Yuan Xuanhu recognized that the sword in Guo Song's hand was actually the Zhanlu Sword, a family heirloom of the Yuan family. A mocking smile appeared on his lips. Will he die by this sword?
"I am already seventy-two, and it is not a pity to die. Can you leave a baby from the Yuan family?"
Guo Song asked coldly: "If my wife and children fall into your hands, will you spare them?"
"No! They will definitely die miserably."
"I'm not as cruel as you. If I don't kill the women of the Yuan family, including your granddaughter, I will leave them a way to survive."
"Thank you very much!"
Yuan Xuanhu uncorked the bottle and drank the bottle of Hedinghong in one gulp...
