"It's cool at night, and Hu people like to drink for fun at night. This is normal," Haji said.
"I thought so at the beginning, but most of the wine shops and brothels were in the north of the city, and not many in the west of the city. But almost all the carriages went to the west of the city. I was worried, so I asked people to go to two other inns, and the same thing happened.
According to the situation, there are at least twenty vehicles heading there!" the soldier said.
"What are those barbarians doing?" Haji had a headache.
"Sir, do we still want to fight here?" the deputy commander asked again. According to the plan, as long as both sides are surrounded, the attack will begin.
"Wait, no!" Haji couldn't help but break into a cold sweat when he thought of the strange situation in the Jing Temple, and asked hurriedly: "How many guards are there in the palace?"
"Two hundred," the deputy commander said.
"Where are the surrounding gates?"
"One hundred per side, isn't it done as you requested?" The deputy commander was a little surprised, why the always shrewd commander of the palace guards was confused today.
"Hurry! Send three hundred people to the west gate! Hurry!" Haji shouted loudly, regardless of being heard by the barbarians inside the wall.
"Remove the archers or the torch throwers?" the deputy commander asked.
"Archer! Idiot! You come with me too!" Haji shouted, turned around and ran to the west.
"Sir, there are people attacking the city and they have already rushed in!" A soldier stumbled over from the west.
At this time, the shouts of killing coming from the west of the city gradually became clearer in Horseshoe City. Haji shouted: "Leave this place alone, everyone follow me to the palace!"
"Didn't you say Ximen?" the deputy commander asked.
"Simon, your mother! Let's go!" Haji rushed towards the south gate of the palace like crazy. The five hundred soldiers surrounding here, carrying bows and arrows on their backs and holding unlit torches, formed a black line from the west of the church wall like ants.
line and headed straight to the palace.
In the church, the one hundred Hu people who had been frightened for a long time finally regained their breath. Many people were so frightened that they sat on the ground, while more people were patting their chests and rejoicing. Shadadi, the leader of the Hu merchants
He slowly opened the door and said to the people behind him: "I'm going to the palace to have a look. You close the door and stay here. It should be over before dawn!"
Before Haji's men could reach the south gate of the palace, they were intercepted by a group of cavalry. They were Wang Yuhun's elite cavalry and part of Hu Shang's men. After they rushed in from the west gate, they went straight to the south gate of the palace.
According to Shang's agreement, after entering the city, the task of these nearly three hundred people was to rescue the barbarians in Jingmiao and the inn, and to break through the prison next to the palace.
The "alert" Haji had a premonition that something was not going to happen, so he directly sent the 600 people who surrounded the Jingmiao and the inn back to the palace to support him, and happened to run into the cavalry head-on.
On the relatively wide south street of the city, with either high walls or rows of houses on both sides, three hundred cavalry were charging at them, killing the six hundred infantry who had nowhere to dodge. After two back and forth, many soldiers actually gave up their hands.
He held the wooden stick and sat against the wall with his head in his arms, which was regarded as surrender.
About half of the six hundred people were palace guards, and their combat power far exceeded those of ordinary soldiers. However, most of the weapons they carried were just bows and arrows, which were almost useless at close range. Haji yelled at everyone to abandon their bows and arrows and use the weapons they carry with them.
It is a short sword, but using this to compete with the cavalry's broadsword is obviously not much different from committing suicide.
Just when Haji was a little desperate, the south gate of the palace suddenly opened wide, and dozens of people rushed out. Haji's heart became hot, and immediately turned cold. Those were all barbarians! Each one of them had extraordinary skills, and after going out, he
Help the cavalry subdue the Kangche soldiers who are scurrying around.
"Follow me over the wall and enter the palace!" Haji decided not to compete with the cavalry in front of him, but to find a way to rescue the princess first! Dozens of palace guards gave up fighting the cavalry and found the opportunity to jump into the long palace wall.
, and then ran towards the harem from all directions.
At the end of the long street, brother and sister Ulhan and Ulna walked out of the inn, knocked down a few broken soldiers who fled here, and let many people escape, and then said to the few cavalry who were chasing here:
"Go to the prison to rescue people first! Don't worry about these pawns."
"Yes!" Those people turned their horses and ran towards the prison next to the palace. In fact, at this time, the empty prison had been captured.
At the south gate of the palace, the battle has ended. Dozens of people fled into the palace, a small half of them scattered in all directions, and the rest either surrendered or were killed.
The Urhan brothers and sisters happened to meet Shadadi coming from the Jing Temple outside the palace gate. Urna asked from a distance: "Are the people in the temple okay?"
"No, none of them are fine. Hahaha." Shadadi said with a smile. The people in the church were just trying to trick Haji, but they were not very good at it.
"Report - the south gate is under control." Someone reported to Urhan Pegasus.
"Report - East Gate, control." This time it was Hu Qi who reported to Shadadi.
"Let's go and see the Kangche Palace together." Shadadi made an invitation gesture to Urhan, and the three of them walked into the south gate together...
Above the crack in the valley, a torch descended from the sky, and countless flying arrows and flying stones were shot into the valley bottom. The mile-long section of the valley was filled with the sound of "swish, swish, swish" piercing the night sky.
Strangely, the expected screams did not come from the bottom of the valley. Horses neighed, arrows and stones continued to be thrown down, and several torches were thrown down from above. Human heads were peeking out from the cliff.
He came out and looked into the deep valley. As the torch fell, light gradually filled the deep valley bottom, but there was no one inside.
"Stop shooting! Everyone has run away!" A loud shout came from the corner at the east end of the deep valley.
Zahuo heard that it was the commander he sent who was shouting, and hurriedly shouted: "Stop! Stop! Stop shooting!"
"Our people are all here, it seems they were just tapped on acupuncture points." The captain's voice came from below again.
"No, I've fallen into a trap! Come back to the royal city with me!" Zahuo jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on and hurried towards his horse.
…
More than an hour ago, the men and horses in the valley began to take action not long after Haji left. First, they effortlessly restrained the forty-eight Kangche King Guards at the east end of the valley bottom;
Then nearly 700 horsemen came out in full force. After leaving the river valley, they entered the desert and circled nearly fifty miles to the south to the west gate of King Kangche City. Shortly before arriving, there were enough guards of Hu merchants coming from all directions in the city.
More than two hundred people easily captured the defenseless city gate guarded by only a hundred people;
The seven hundred cavalry who filed in split up, two hundred cavalry went straight to the palace, and five hundred cavalry took over the other three gates. Half of the more than a thousand defenders in the city were near the south gate. How could they withstand the cavalry's attack from within?
?All four city gates were lost in less than half an hour, and most of the soldiers fled without a trace;
He Qizhou, Xu Mu and Tian Bing's team were the first to break into the palace, where there was barely any resistance. Li Jichen opened the west gate of the royal city with one person, and the influx of cavalry repelled one attack, two ambushes, and more than a hundred guards.
After losing its fighting power, there was no longer any decent defense in the palace.
The snow dragon horse under He Qizhou's crotch was the bravest one, rushing to the front, escaping two thrilling ambushes and then rushed towards the harem located in the middle of the mountain. According to Haji, the queen was there.
"Slow down! Do you still want to die?" Xu Mu chased after him. He Qizhou had only recovered four powers. He had diarrhea every day in the past few days. Now he is only slightly better. When he rushed into the palace just now,
That guy was the one who fought the hardest.
"I'm afraid someone will take advantage of the chaos." He Qizhou slowed down a little, and waited for Xu Mu to catch up and go up side by side. Behind them, Li Jichen had already jumped off the horse, and his golden finger came out frequently, killing the people who had just attacked He Qizhou one by one.
They were knocked down, while Tian Bing's men were separated by a distance of forty or fifty feet, and they were running around in the numerous buildings of the palace.
After the sudden change, the maids and palace people in the palace ran around screaming like headless flies. At this time, a large number of Hu Shang guards also poured into the palace from all directions, driving those in the palace to flee towards the palace.
central location.
At the tip of He Qizhou's ears, a voice seemed to come from behind a gourd-shaped arch: "There are barbarians everywhere in the north, go east!"
"Xiaoxue, go and block the east gate of that courtyard!" He Qizhou said as he jumped off his horse and quickly passed through the arch, where the lotus pond is.
"Be careful, don't show off!" Xu Mu rode his horse around to the east gate of the garden. When he dismounted, he saw a dozen guards and a dozen women trying to escape.
"Stop." Xu Mu shouted while guarding the door.
When the guards saw that Xu Mu was thin and alone, the five or six people rushing in front swarmed over. Each of them was equivalent to the strength of the third and fourth veins. Xu Mu knocked down the two of them with just one move. Those who were following the guards
The woman screamed and retreated back in, running towards the south gate.
Haji had already put on the clothes of a palace man and shouted at the guards in front of him: "Hold on!" Then he followed the women to the south gate. But there was also a person standing at the south gate, blocking the way.
He was dead. Just as he was about to find a way out, the man blocking the south gate shouted: "Haji, where are you running to?"
The speaker was none other than He Qizhou, who was holding a straight knife. Drops of blood were dripping from the tip of the knife. The women were so frightened that their faces turned pale. When they rushed three feet in front of him, they huddled up and stopped.
Knowing that he could not escape, Haji walked out from behind the group of women.
"How are you doing there?" He Qizhou heard people screaming from time to time at the east gate of the garden, so he asked loudly. There were ten people there who were besieging Xu Mu.
"Half a cup of tea at most!" Xu Mu's voice was calm and calm.
"Sir, as long as you spare your life, we will do anything for you." A woman shouted in Kangche dialect.
"Yes, yes, please spare my life, sir." Several more women shouted.
Almost all of these dozen or so people were dressed in the same style. Their silk shirts were just covered with a layer of transparent gauze. Except for one person, most of them were bumpy and their fair skin color was looming under the gauze. In such a hot summer, of course,
The less you wear, the more comfortable you are.
He Qizhou glanced at the group of exotic beauties without understanding what they were shouting at. He raised the straight knife in his hand and asked: "Which one of you is the queen?" Although He Qizhou looked fierce, he actually didn't say anything.
To kill someone, you just use the back of the knife to injure the person blocking the way. Only when you get close to here, the last few guards who secretly rush out are too cruel, so you have to use the knife to kill the opponent.
