A small colonel next to Longshan quickly stepped forward, and sure enough he saw the bodies of Dali soldiers staggering on the ground not far ahead. The small colonel quickly turned around and shouted: "Commander, the enemy is attacking, hurry up, ,,,,,”
When Tian Xiuyan saw this, he immediately picked up a spear from the ground and fired it straight with his right hand. Before the junior high school student finished speaking and had no time to react, the spear had penetrated his body.
Hu Dun was furious and shouted loudly: "Longshan, sound the alarm."
Longshan knew that the matter was urgent and without saying a word, he immediately stepped back more than ten steps and beat a war drum on the city wall.
At the same time, Hu Dun and his guards rushed towards Tian Xiuyan and others with weapons in hand.
As a Mongolian captain of ten thousand men, Hudun had 200 personal guards under his command. The more than 30 personal guards on the city wall were the best among them. Although there were fewer people than the other party, Hudun didn't care at all. , has absolute confidence in the martial arts of his men. Secondly, Dali City is still under his own control. As long as he persists for a moment, reinforcements will arrive.
One hundred Song troops, led by Tian Xiuyan, fought in a melee with Hu Dun and others.
Although there are three times as many people as the enemy, this group of Song troops who are good at climbing are not as good as the opponent in terms of force. In addition, they come from various units, and they are not very skilled in joint attacks, so they can only fight with the enemy. It's evenly matched.
Soldiers versus soldiers, generals, Tian Xiuyan and Hu Dun are naturally facing each other. Hu Dun is good at horse fighting and has rich experience in facing enemies. After a few moves, he has already seen that without the help of horses, his opponent's foot fighting skills are inferior. Still above himself, Hu Dun sized up the situation and knew that reinforcements would arrive if his side only had to persist a little longer. With this thought in mind, he danced the sword in his hand like a tiger, just to protect himself.
Although Tian Xiuyan, who was good at foot combat, had a slight advantage, it was difficult to defeat Hu Dun in a short time with his sword.
Hu Dun was aware of the current situation, and Tian Xiuyan was also aware that the longer the time went by, the more disadvantageous it would be for his side. The wind was so sharp that Tian Xiuyan could not distract himself from other thoughts.
After about ten rounds, the two of them heard a cry of killing coming from far away. Suddenly Dun and Tian Xiuyan's expressions changed at the same time. However, they were two completely opposite changes, one happy and one worried. Fortunately, the Song Army on the wall Relying on the large number of people, they gradually gained the upper hand.
Tian Xiuyan felt anxious, and suddenly used the spear in his hand to use the move "Bearing after suffering", but he saw seven gun flowers suddenly appeared, through the light of Hu Dun's sword, straight into them, Hu Dun was so powerful that he couldn't understand all the emotions. After stopping him, he took a few steps back, and then the force of the seven spear flowers was completely eliminated.
Taking this opportunity, Tian Xiuyan shouted angrily: "All officers and men, disperse into the city and break them into pieces."
At this time, fires suddenly broke out in many places in Dali City, and the sky was dry. Soon, thick smoke was billowing everywhere. Tian Xiuyan knew that Duan Donglou's department lurking in Dali City had begun to take action.
Hu Dun took a breath and did not pursue Tian Xiuyan who escaped, but ordered: "Longshan, you immediately send people to the four gates of the new city to prevent the enemy from seizing the gates. If only this hundred-man team enters the city and It's no big deal. I'll go to the north gate and you to the south gate. These two are closest to the west city wall. If more enemies sneak in, the north and south gates of the old city are the most important."
"Yes, Marshal,"
As the saying goes, when the country is prosperous, all industries are prosperous, and God's will still exists in the dark. Hu Dun's judgment is completely correct. There are indeed other Song troops sneaking into the city, and the purpose is to seize the city gate, but when choosing , but did not receive their eternal blessing. If Hudun had gone to the south gate, perhaps the ending would have been different.
For the choice of south and north gates, the probabilities are equal, but at this time, it depends on whether luck is with them.
After Longshan made arrangements, he immediately ran down the city wall and headed south alone.
The old city of Dali is not big. At Longshan's speed, it only takes a quarter of an hour from the west city wall to the south gate. Unfortunately, as soon as Longshan stepped off the city wall, he was stared at by Tian Xiuyan, who had left earlier. Already.
Duan Donglou and his four hundred Song troops took a small road and quickly arrived near the south gate. Duan Donglou, who was familiar with the terrain, called four captains and arranged in a low voice: "Everyone, it seems that the enemy has not noticed it yet. I came forward from the front and assassinated the twenty guards inside the city gate. After that, the fourth team immediately opened the door and sent a signal to meet General Lou. The fifth team followed me to stop the enemy in front of the city gate. The first team came from the left Then, the third team went up from the right. After going up, they tried to delay the enemy troops on the city wall from coming down, and tried to prevent the enemy troops from firing arrows outside the city."
"Yes, General,"
"Well, action,"
More than a dozen soldiers who put on Dali army armor, led by Duan Donglou, walked toward the city gate in a swaggering manner.
Longshan was alone and familiar with the city's terrain. Although he set off a little late, he arrived almost at the same time as Duan Donglou's troops.
"Fortunately, nothing happened at the south gate." As he approached the city gate, Longshan looked at the quiet city gate in the distance and breathed a long sigh of relief. As he was about to step forward, he saw hundreds of figures suddenly appear in the darkness. He was quietly moving toward the city gate.
"No, these people don't look like our soldiers. They are all dressed in black. Ah, no good..." Longshan suddenly remembered that the enemy troops who appeared on the west wall were dressed like this. When he Just when he was about to shout a warning, he felt a soft voice from behind: "Thank you for leading the way, young master."
"Lead the way," Longshan died before he could react.
Tian Xiuyan, who had no guide and had never been to Dali City, naturally did not know the road, so he followed him all the way until Longshan wanted to call out, then he shot him dead. If it had been Hudun, Tian Xiuyan would have killed him. Xiuyan can also follow it to the south gate, but has no ability to stop its call.
Under the dim light, the Dali army inside the city gate could not see clearly who the dozen or so people who suddenly appeared were. They could only see that the military uniforms of these people were the same as them.
Duan Donglou said in standard Dali dialect: "Brothers, I am a general in the house of the general manager. On your order, I came to inspect the defense of each city gate to avoid being attacked by the enemy."
"It turns out he is from the house of the steward, no wonder he looks strange," the leader said.
"It seems that everything is safe at the south gate. Thank you for your hard work, brothers. When I get back, I will tell the manager that I will give the brothers a tooth ceremony," Duan Donglou said while inadvertently taking a few steps closer.
"Thank you very much, no, stay, stay, this is a restricted area, I said,,,,,," the leader wanted to stop Duan Donglou from moving forward, but as soon as he said a few words, he realized that his There was a dart on his throat, and then his legs softened and he fell to the ground.
With Duan Donglou's long sword in hand, he rushed directly into the city gate like a tiger from the mountain, and began to assassinate people. The more than ten soldiers who followed Duan Donglou and rushed in immediately started a massacre. All of these people were good players, and several of them were killed. In a matter of seconds, the twenty gatekeepers inside the city gate were wiped out.
However, someone still roared before dying, and the scream finally alerted other soldiers defending the city.
Duan Donglou hurriedly said: "Hurry, open the city gate."
Just when the fourth team was about to open the city gate, many Yuan troops guarding the south gate rushed to the city gate. The fastest move was a Mongolian hundred-man team, which took the lead in a melee with Duan Donglou and others. After a while Later, the Mongolian general guarding the south gate, Captain Tuohua Taiji, led 300 Mongolian elites to the city gate and surrounded Duan Donglou and others.
Although Duan Donglou and others formed a formation and resisted desperately, it was still difficult to stop them. Gradually, the encirclement became smaller and smaller. Fortunately, the Mongols could only fight on foot. Otherwise, the Song army's defensive formation would have been overwhelmed by seven All gone.
Duan Donglou hurriedly sheathed his sword, picked up a spear from the ground, and rushed to the forefront of the team. Using the spear as a stick, he used all the stick techniques. He used all his strength to sweep away a large area, continuously After three moves, the formation was temporarily stabilized, preventing the enemy from coming forward.
No one recognized Duan Donglou, who appeared in his true form. Tuohua Taiji, who was directing the battle in the distance, saw that the leader of the enemy army was extremely brave, so he fired a long spear and killed him.
Tuohua Taiji was highly skilled in martial arts and ranked second only to Hudun and Hudu among the Mongolian troops in Dali.
When the soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty saw that the opponent's general was entangled, they immediately swarmed forward and narrowed the encirclement again.
Tian Xiuyan, who was on the periphery, saw more and more enemy troops. The two hundred-man troops on the city wall were also divided and surrounded. The soldiers around Duan Donglou fell to the ground one by one. Even Duan Donglou's body was stained with blood. Tian Xiuyan Yan knew that the current situation had reached its most critical moment. As long as he persisted for a while, Lou Anbang from outside the city could rush in.
Tian Xiuyan suddenly let out a loud roar, rushed into the enemy formation from behind, and ran towards Tuohua Taiji. The Miao Qinggong practiced by Tian Xiuyan was quite unique. It was fast and had strange steps. He shuttled among the Yuan soldiers like a ghost. , when encountering a dense crowd of enemies, he jumped upwards, like a flying eagle, directly over the heads of the soldiers. Although the soldiers of the Yuan army wanted to stop them, they were unable to do anything. Along the way, Tian Xiuyan did not bother, It didn't take long before he came directly behind Tuohua Taiji.
Attacked from the front and back, Tuohua Taiji, who was already slightly inferior, suddenly looked embarrassed. He had no choice but to make a feint and retreat into the formation. With the help of Tian Xiuyan, Duan Donglou shouted again and swiped his spear. The soldiers were forced to retreat.
Duan Donglou had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard an angry voice: "Sariwei, don't be complacent, I'm here for you."
Hu Dun, who came from the north gate, arrived at the south gate in time, and recognized the enemy general from Duan Donglou's moves as the demon monk Sariwei. Although Duan Donglou was at the end of his strength at this moment, he insisted on saying: "Suddenly Dun, what’s the use of your coming?”
Tian Xiuyan took two steps forward and stopped in front of Duan Donglou. He smiled calmly and said, "Hu Dun, how dare you fight your Master Tian for another three hundred rounds?"
