Zhu Shiyong also heard the cry of killing, and suddenly he was like a ladle of ice water poured from head to head. Su Jin did not lie. It seemed that Ouyang Xiu really brought an army to capture him. Now Su Jin couldn't take it, and the army outside the city was pressing on him. He had already
Trapped in a quagmire and swamp, it is impossible to recover. Full text...
A soldier rushed over, and before Zhu Shiyong could ask, he was already breathless and reported: "Master Magistrate, a large group of forbidden troops came from outside the North City. They shouted below the city asking us to open the city gate. They said it was led by the Imperial Envoy Ouyang Xiu.
The army is entering the city on official business."
Zhu Shiyong forced himself to calm down and shouted: "Why are you panicking? Are you sure those are the Forbidden Army? How many people are there?"
The soldiers reported back: "It's absolutely true. Judging from the equipment and flags, they must be the Forbidden Army. There are thousands of them."
Zhu Shiyong was reassured that there were only a thousand men and he would not be able to attack them for a while. He still had time, but there were only more than a hundred defenders at the top of the city, so reinforcements had to be rushed;
If Su Jin and others go, it will definitely be too late.
At the moment, we can only fight quickly and eliminate Su Jin and others first, no matter the cost, so as to avoid distractions and constraints.
"After passing the order, the mobile patrols in the city Yong and the government officials went to the north gate to guard the city. They told the imperial guards outside the city that I would be at the door to greet them soon, and asked them to be calm."
The soldiers took the order and rushed to deliver the order. Zhu Shiyong turned around, called Li Du and Ma Biao in front of him, and said word by word: "You two, we don't have time to waste, I'll give you half an hour.
We will kill Su Jin and others at all costs. If we cannot capture Su Jin, you two will come to see us."
Li Du and Ma Biao were helpless. The imperial army had arrived outside the North City Gate. This already showed that Su Jin's previous words were all true. The two of them felt as if they had boarded a pirate ship. Zhu Shiyong had indeed led them on a journey of no return.
The way back; but now there is no way to retreat, even if it is a dead end, we have to go to the end. I only hope that Zhu Shiyong has some amazing tricks to reverse the situation.
Neither of them knew what Zhu Shiyong had in his cards, but the bet had already been placed, and life and death could only be left to fate. If they retreated at this moment, Zhu Shiyong could not spare them, and Su Jin and the imperial troops outside the city still could not spare them.
The two looked at each other, gritted their teeth and clasped their fists, saying, "I obey!"
After a scolding, the guards and soldiers were reorganized. Sixty-three of the eighty-strong guards were left. The two hundred soldiers brought by Wang Yaocheng and Li Du had the most casualties, but the two teams combined still had more than 110 soldiers.
The number of people gathered together in two clicks was still close to two hundred, and the number of people was still several times ahead.
Su Jin and others were immersed in the joy of the arrival of reinforcements. When they saw the opponent's entire army lining up, they thought they were going to reinforce the city. Unexpectedly, Li Du and Ma Biao gave the order and suddenly launched the final attack.
Su Jin and the defecting soldiers were already divided into two groups by the crossbow. Chao Chao, Zhao Hu and more than 30 defecting soldiers were at the outside. They were too close to each other, and they swarmed towards them. They were stunned for a moment.
, and was already entangled by the other party.
Su Jin secretly screamed something bad and shouted loudly: "Get back quickly."
But there was no time. Once there was a fight, turning around and escaping would be tantamount to handing your life into the opponent's hands. In the blink of an eye, more than 30 people including Zhao Hu of the Dynasty were surrounded, and both sides
Fighting and fighting together.
The disparity in strength was too great, and the opponent rushed up one after another as if they had been given blood, regardless of life and death. In an instant, more than 30 people were cut and scattered, with blood splattering and screaming. In the blink of an eye, more than 30 people were killed.
Most of it fell down.
Chao Chao and Zhao Hu roared continuously and danced their swords like wheels. They reluctantly gathered more than ten soldiers together again and formed a small defensive formation back to back.
When Ma Han and Zhang Long saw this, they quickly raised their knives and went to save them, but Su Jin grabbed them back and shouted: "Hold your formation, they are coming towards us."
Sure enough, Ma Biao led more than 60 personal guards to bypass the burning ruins and pounced on Su Jin and others from the northeast. Su Jin shouted: "Bi Yun took my mother and leaned against the wall.
Ma Han Zhang Long goes to engage the enemy, but keep the formation unchanged in other directions."
Yan Biyun quickly called on everyone to help Mrs. Wang to the courtyard wall. He, Xiaosui'er Rou Niang and others used their delicate bodies to form a semicircle to protect Mrs. Wang inside. Ma Han and Zhang Long had already rushed in like a whirlwind.
In front of the rushing Guards soldiers, the two steel knives just flashed and the two soldiers immediately took action; then the swords of both sides met and killed each other.
Although Zhao Hu of the Dynasty formed a formation over there, within a short while, all the more than ten surrendered soldiers behind him were killed. In the end, only the two of Dynasty Ma and Han were left facing back to back against the huge number of soldiers.
Su Jin shouted: "Kill out, fight back."
Zhao Hu slashed an enemy soldier with his sword, kicked another one away, and shouted: "Brother of the Dynasty, the Young Master told us to go back and kill him."
Wang Chao shouted loudly and kicked out a dead body on the ground, knocking down a large number of enemy troops. He took a breath and said: "Brother, killing him back is naturally a good way, but brother, I have a bolder way. How dare you
Don’t you dare?”
Zhao Hu kept punching and kicking, and asked: "What can I do?"
Chao Chao said: "Our formation has been broken up, and more than thirty people have died. Even if we retreat, we will not be able to stop it. Young Master's side can still hold on. Let's attract more enemy soldiers. Young Master and I will
The safer people will be..."
Zhao Hu cut off the arm of an enemy soldier with one knife, wiped the blood spattered on his face and said: "I don't know what to do. Everything depends on my brother. As long as I can protect the young master and the old lady, I can do whatever I want."
.”
Wang Chao said: "Okay, then let's go out and kill. Have you seen the old thief Zhu standing on the low house outside the yard? Let's run to him. The enemy soldiers will definitely save him, so that's it."
Zhao Hu chuckled and said: "Good idea, kill!"
Chao Chao then shouted: "Kill!"
The two men suddenly launched into action and rushed out one after the other.
Li Du was in the rear and was about to order some troops to attack the women and children where Su Jin was. Although he and Ma Biao had agreed that one would deal with the southern nest and one would deal with the northern nest, now only two of the southern nest had been cleared.
It's hard enough to kill two people with hundreds of people around, and it's impossible to use it at all.
But suddenly, he saw these two strong men charging towards the outside of the courtyard, chopping up more than a dozen soldiers one after another like melons and vegetables, and they were in front of him in the blink of an eye. This was a big surprise.
Zhao Hu had already seen Li Du gesticulating outside and his eyes were full of anger. He flew up and chopped off Li Du's head with a knife. Li Du was horrified and raised his knife. A powerful force came at Li Du.
Du's calf went soft and he was forced to sit on the ground. He couldn't hold the steel knife in his hand and dropped it.
Zhao Hu shouted: "You ancestor, go to hell." The steel knife slashed his pocket for the second time. Li Du eagerly reached out and hugged the thigh of a soldier next to him and pulled hard. The soldier fell to Li with a pop.
Du's body happened to be Li Du's human shield. He was cut in half by Zhao Hu's knife, and his entrails were everywhere.
While Zhao Hu was stunned, Li Du quickly crawled out from under the corpse. In the blink of an eye, six or seven soldiers rushed up and handed out swords and guns, blocking Zhao Hu's pursuit route.
Wang Chao smacked his lips and said, "What a pity."
Zhao Hu said: "The thief does not care about the life and death of his subordinates. He is really not a thing. Let him live a little longer and deal with him later."
Wang Chao pointed towards the entrance of the courtyard and said, "Go and kill the old thief first." The two of them raised their spirits and chased towards the entrance of the courtyard.
Su Jin guessed the intention of Wang Chao and Zhao Hu as soon as he saw their movements. It would be a good idea to capture the thief first, but it would have to be divided at some point. There were too many people on the other side, unless there was a high-level, high-level, high-level step like in later movies.
With the ability to fly across people's heads in the air, how can they succeed by just killing them on the ground? Moreover, the risk is too high. Although the two of them are highly skilled in martial arts, after all, the other party is hundreds of soldiers with weapons in their hands. Don't look at the two of them now.
Brave, as long as you are blocked for a while, after too much energy is consumed, you will no longer be able to move even half a step, and your life may be lost.
Sure enough, Zhao Hu let out a muffled roar and was shot in the waist. Fortunately, his skin was rough and his flesh was thick, and he released his strength in time, so it didn't penetrate deeply. However, once there was the first wound, the anger towards the two of them would be extremely high.
In case of a big blow, they will be more careful when taking action. As one goes against the other, it will be easier for the opponent to block them.
Su Jin was helpless, and the guards spread out in a fan shape. They had already fought against Su Jin and others. They had the advantage in numbers, but Su Jin's victory was due to the fact that he had several good players. Not to mention Ma Han and Zhang Long, Su Jin led
The two personal guards of Ouyang Xiu who came were also very skilled. Although the remaining four companions under Yan Biyun were scarred, they still showed great courage at the critical moment of life and death. The two attacks were basically evenly matched.
Su Jin suddenly understood how important the role of Chao Chao and Zhao Hu was. They had attracted most of the soldiers, otherwise they would definitely not be able to stop them.
The combat power of the personal guards is quite good. The personal guards raised by Zhu Shiyong are of course selected and tested. These guys are all skilled in martial arts. They use swords and guns in a orderly manner, and their advance and retreat are quite organized. If it were not for the full protection of several of our own experts, they would have been killed long ago.
A gap was opened.
Su Jin himself can only be regarded as a mediocre person. Fortunately, after experiencing so much, his hands and feet are no longer weak when he sees a knife coming at him. However, he still feels stressed when meeting someone with real martial arts skills, and people around him often complain.
It would be quite embarrassing to come over and help him, but now we can only hold on to this situation without any opportunistic means.
The scene was a mess, except for the sounds of shouts and gasps and the sounds of swords clashing, almost no one said anything. It was a life-and-death fight, and everyone was focused on it, fearing that one careless move would leave them with lifelong regrets.
Su Jin swung his sword to block a steel knife. His hands and feet went numb for a while. He forced himself to hold the weapon in his hand and glanced anxiously at the city gate to the north. There was thick smoke billowing from there, and the sound of killing was faintly heard.
Suddenly, Su Jin secretly cursed himself for being stupid. At this time, the other party was more anxious and psychologically more fragile than himself.
Su Jin took a deep breath and suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs: "The city is broken, the city is broken, brothers, kill. Ouyang Zhongcheng's army will arrive soon. The opportunity to be rewarded for meritorious service is here. Kill all the rebels and capture Mr. Zhu alive."
thief."
The voice was so loud that it broke the voice. It sounded like goosebumps all over the body. Everyone who was fighting was startled. Everyone unconsciously glanced to the north, but they saw black smoke billowing from the city gate to the north. Although they looked at
It was unclear whether the city was destroyed or not, but this voice spoke to their worries, their hearts were filled with worry, and their eyes were panicked.
"Zhu Shiyong ran away, and you idiots are still working for him." Su Jin shouted again at the top of his lungs.
The soldiers turned around and looked back again. Sure enough, Zhu Shiyong on the low building outside the courtyard was nowhere to be seen. Zhu Shiyong just saw Chao Chao and Zhao Hu heading straight for him and did not want to be an obvious target, so he got down from a high place and stood outside the courtyard to supervise the battle.
, the soldiers didn't know this, and when they didn't see Zhu Shiyong, they suddenly felt empty.
"The city is broken, Zhu Shiyong has escaped, kill him!" Su Jin shouted at the top of his lungs.
Xiao Sui'er was so smart. When she saw the young master blinking at her, she put her hands on her hips and shouted: "The city is broken... Old thief Zhu has run away... There is a reward for catching old thief Zhu!"
Xiao Sui'er's delicate and clear voice was very penetrating, and went straight into the ears of everyone on the battlefield. The people on Su Jin's side were ecstatic, and everyone on the enemy's side was worried. One soldier finally couldn't help cursing.
: "I've already run away like a fool, so what are we still trying to do?"
This sentence is exactly what the other soldiers want to say but dare not say. Once the window paper is pierced, the psychological defense line collapses instantly. Some people drop their weapons and turn around and run away; this run is like a plague, and everyone is infected instantly.
Individually, there was a loud sound of weapons hitting the ground, and the soldiers fled outside the courtyard one after another.
Zhu Shiyong hurriedly appeared at the entrance of the courtyard and shouted loudly: "Don't listen to their rumors. We are here. Anyone who runs away from the battle will not be killed."
But now that they have started running away, who will go back to pick up the weapons and fight again? The soldiers just cover their heads and run away, regardless of Zhu Shiyong's threats.
Zhu Shiyong slashed two deserters with his sword, but failed to stop the deserters from collapsing. They were rushed by more than a dozen soldiers and staggered to the ground, with their heads bruised and bleeding. His followers quickly helped him up.
He said: "Sir, I can't stop you any more. Let's go quickly."
Zhu Shiyong stood up and looked into the courtyard, only to see deserters rushing in like water, so crowded that the courtyard door almost collapsed. Followed by Su Jin's gang, they shouted and raised their swords to chase after them, knowing that the situation was over.
.
"Come on, sir." He dragged Zhu Shiyong and ran away.
"Official hat...my official hat..." Zhu Shiyong reached down and shouted hoarsely.
"Hey...my lord, what time has it been? You still picked that one up, it's important to escape..." The personal followers dragged Zhu Shiyong into the carriage without any care, and fled quickly with whips, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.dd
