Chapter 144 Breaking the city gate

On the wide official road, five horses lined up and galloped on the official road.

The moonlight fell onto the earth, maybe because of the snow, it was particularly bright tonight, as if God was opening a way for them.

The heavy snow took away all life, and in this silent night, only the sound of horse hooves echoed in this land.

I don’t know how long they walked, but until the speed of the horse slowed down a lot, a city appeared in front of them.

Fire appeared in the city, and several people faintly heard shouts of death and screams.

"Call..."

The five horses stopped, looking at the flames rising into the sky, the leading white-robed general took a breath.

"This is... Fangcheng. Unexpectedly, the attack has already reached here. The Liang Kingdom and the Great Shang Kingdom must have been planning for a long time."

What chilled him was not only the loss of the city, but also the cunning tactics of the enemy generals.

He had won successive battles before, thinking that his own side was too strong, but he didn't expect that the other side was faking defeat to increase his own pride.

Unexpectedly, the other party has been planning for so long.

Fortunately, he deployed nine lines of defense, otherwise Qingzhou would have been completely lost.

"According to the speed of the messenger bird, Nantianmen was only lost yesterday, but the two countries' coalition forces broke through Liudao City in one day."

"Liudao City? How could it be? This place is thirty or forty miles away from the border. Even if we march normally, we can only go this far in one day. Could it be that the Qingzhou Army didn't resist at all?"

The expression of a guard behind him changed greatly.

"Probably!"

Lin Xiaofan and Jianfeng were riding on the same horse. He who was behind took a few deep breaths and looked pale.

Although it was not his first time riding a horse, Jianfeng had been running for more than two hundred miles in a row, and he still couldn't hold on. I don’t know what kind of horse Jianfeng is. It can run for so long without any problems. If it were an ordinary horse, it would probably be exhausted.

"Yes, this may be General Zhao Yue's strategy."

Jianfeng thought about it for a while. Zhao Yue was his lieutenant general. He had been on the battlefield for decades. Although he had no great achievements, he had no major mistakes. He knew a lot about the art of war and was rich in experience.

"The defenses of each of the six cities from Nantianmen to here are not very strong, and there are no more than a thousand troops stationed there. In this case, there is nothing we can do even if we resist. It is better to concentrate all the troops here and fight again."

Fang Town is surrounded by continuous mountains. The city walls are tall and easy to defend but difficult to attack. And as long as they hold this place, the opponent will not be able to enter Qingzhou.

"Come on, let's just kill him!"

Jian Bai sat on a guard's horse and stuck his head out. Facing the battlefield for the first time, his body was trembling slightly, but his face was extremely excited, even a little red.

He learned this martial arts just for this moment, to go into battle to kill the enemy and save countless people from dire straits.

"Haha, okay, let's fight over and drive!"

The sword sharply accelerated, causing Lin Xiaofan to hit the former hard.

"Slow down, let me slow down."

Lin Xiaofan was behind him and felt like he was about to vomit.

In the space of a cup of tea, several people entered the city. The shouts of killing were getting closer and closer, and countless soldiers roared and screamed.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

A low crash sounded, and the city gate was already crumbling.

Within the city gate, thousands of cavalry and thousands of soldiers gathered together and stood ready. If you look carefully, you will find that their bodies are trembling slightly because of fear, but their eyes look like death.

Outside the door, there were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but there were only a few hundred of them. As soon as the city gate is opened, they will rush out for the final charge. By then, their chances of survival are almost zero.

But their eyes were full of determination, because behind them was their hometown.

In the past few days, they have suffered countless defeats, and today they gave up six cities in a row. Now they are full of grievances.

On the city wall, there are countless people still struggling to support themselves. Some of them are Qingzhou soldiers who have retreated, some are retired soldiers, and some are civilians who have never been on the battlefield.

But now, they all have the same belief, which is to defend the city.

"Drive! Drive! Drive!"

The sound of horse hooves accompanied by the sound of driving horses sounded from behind, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

All the useful horses in the city were dropped here. Why are there still horses?

Looking back, I saw the leader riding a white horse, wearing a white robe, carrying a long sword at his waist, and a long spear on his back.

"This is General Jianfeng?"

"Yes, I admitted it right, this is General Jianfeng."

"What, General Jianfeng is back?"

"General Jianfeng is back!"

Suddenly, the military camp was filled with excitement. Everyone stretched their necks hard to see clearly the white-robed general who was flying forward.

Jianfeng rushed to the front of the team, stopped his horse, looked at the leading general, and asked:

"Where is General Zhao Yue?"

When the leading general saw Jian Feng, he looked excited and hurriedly said:

"General, General Zhao Yue is commanding from above and ordered me to wait here. Once the city gate is opened, lead the troops to kill as many people as possible."

Jianfeng looked at the general in front of him and nodded:

"Thanks a lot."

He has been on the battlefield for a long time, and naturally he can see that this is the work of the death squads. The general in front of him is young, but he has the courage to take on this task. If he survives this war, he will become a great asset in the future.

"Xiaofan, I will lead the troops to charge in a moment, you come down first. Da Zhuang, you are responsible for protecting Xiaofan's safety."

Lin Xiaofan nodded and got off the horse. He knew how much he weighed. If he followed and charged, not only would it be useless, but it would distract Jianfeng and others from protecting him.

A guard also got off his horse and followed Lin Xiaofan, while Jian Bai got on his horse.

Then, Jianfeng looked at the countless soldiers and spoke slowly.

"Generals!"

In an instant, the noise stopped.

Then he closed his eyes and listened to what was happening on the wall. After a long time, he judged that the city wall could still hold on for some time.

It's just that this city gate may not be guarded for long.

"The rats from Daliang and Dashang took advantage of my absence to sneak attack on six cities in our Qingzhou. They will continue to fight and want to take away our entire Qingzhou."

"Behind us are our relatives, friends, fellow villagers, and our hometown. Now, the rats from Daliang and Dashang have reached the gate. Can our Qingzhou Army endure this? Let us fight them back together! "

"Sen..."

The sound of drawing a sword rang out throughout the night, and the sword pointed at the door.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Looking at the white-robed general who focused on the audience, countless soldiers were excited. Many people who had followed Jianfeng for a long time even had a flash of tears in their eyes.

As long as the general is here, they have nothing to fear. As long as the general is here, they are not afraid of life or death.

"boom!"

With a loud noise, the tall city gate fell to the ground.
