The warriors sign up for a fierce battle, and the shouts of thousands of troops are like the waves of the angry sea.

In front of Donghua Gate, the soldiers were all brave and marching forward step by step, the sound of killing shook the heaven and the earth. Their momentum not only overwhelmed Hu Shahu's troops, but also shook the entire Daxing Mansion and the central capital of the Jin Dynasty like thunder on the ground.

Outside Tai Chi Palace.

Wanyan Chounu led a group of soldiers and just passed through Xianlufang to the west and blocked the gate of Taiji Palace.

Just a moment ago, he led his men into the residence of Shangshu Youcheng, but Tu Shanyi retreated in advance, making him miss. Wanyan Chounu was furious and immediately killed all the servants and maids in the mansion who had not escaped. At the same time, he asked Tu Danyi whereabouts.

Only then did he know that Tu Danyi had a deep connection with the Taoist priests in Taiji Palace, and he quickly led his troops to pursue him.

The group of people were all covered in blood and full of murderous intent. Wanyan Chounu held a knife in front and was allocating his troops to surround the entire palace. Suddenly, he heard the sound of fighting in the direction of the palace.

To ordinary people, the sound of killing might only represent the fighting itself, but Wanyan Chounu was also an experienced warrior. If he listened carefully, he could hear the increase and decrease in momentum and the changes in the initiative on the battlefield.

His face was uncertain and his mind was in confusion.

Several subordinates were waiting for him to issue an order, but they saw him stunned for a long time, staring down at the wet blood on the knife, and hesitated to speak.

In Tai Chi Palace.

Tu Danyi and Xu Ding had already known that Wanyan Chounu and his troops were coming. There was no room for reserve at this time, so both of them immediately put on the clothes of ordinary people and walked quickly along a narrow corridor surrounded by their close relatives and relatives.

This corridor was the secret passage that Chongxuanzi led Guo Ning and others through Baima Shentang Street to Yizhongfang Inn that day. Chongxuanzi walked as fast as flying, leading the way, followed closely by his disciple Shanyi.

The old gentleman told the public that he had injured his foot after falling from a horse, but at this moment, he was walking with a cane in his hand, and he was even more vigorous than Xu Ding behind him. On the contrary, it was the middle-aged man Xu Ding who was breathing heavily, relying on the support of two beautiful women on one side and the other on the right.

"Huh...huh... Sir, do you think Pusan ​​Anzhen will really pick us up at Yizhongfang?"

Pusan ​​Anzhen's father, Pusan ​​Kui, once led the Nine Route Army to conquer the Song Dynasty. He was very prestigious in the army, far ahead of Wanyan Gang and Hu Shahu. His mother, a Korean princess, is the same mother-sister of King Zheng Yongbu. Pusan ​​Anzhen himself successively held positions close to the emperor such as Chief of Shangyi, Tongjin of the Royal Court, and Deputy Envoy of Shangyao. Later, he became the Princess of Shangxing Kingdom and became the Prince Consort. He also had great military merit in the post of Dinghaijiedushi Envoy. The emperor also He was transferred back to Zhongdu and served as the commander of the defense of Zhidu.

No matter how you look at it, this king is a confidant of the emperor and a reliable person around the emperor. However, this time Hu Shahu suddenly raised his troops, and the Gongweizhi and Weijie troops under Anzhen's command failed to respond in time, and he himself did not even come forward.

Shan Yi, the disciple who just now, said that when he arrived at Yizhongfang, he could get help from Pusan ​​Anzhen, so he didn't have to worry about Wanyan Chounu, a mad dog... Xu Ding was doubtful.

He staggered and trotted for two steps, and then said: "Sir, is Pusan ​​Anzhen really reliable? His powerful army has been scattered! What's the use of having an empty head commanding the envoy?"

Just as he was asking, Tu Shanyi in front suddenly stopped. Xu Ding was not careful and almost bumped into him.

Shan Yi listened attentively.

In the past two years, he has aged very badly and his hearing is not as good as before.

The sound behind the high wall was intermittent, sometimes faint, sometimes very clear.

The sound reminded him of what he had seen on the battlefield when he was young. He seemed to see knights running like the wind, guns and halberds held high like a forest, and military formations as strict as mountains. He seemed to see military spirit rising like flames rising into the sky. The enemies on the opposite side were all confused.

He laughed twice and asked Xu Ding: "Did you hear that?"

"Huh...huh...is it the sound of fighting? It seems to be coming from the imperial city?"

"There is someone who came late. However, this person is really good at fighting, so useful!" Tu Danyi hurried on: "Hezhi, you can rest assured. Pusan ​​Anzhen is a smart man, and he will definitely come at this time. Meet us!"

Outside Zhongdu City, there is the Zhahe Camp.

Miao Daorun and Zhang Rou stood side by side, looking at the fire in the city, hearing the sound of killing, and their hearts were trembling with excitement.

"Two thousand people! He led two thousand people into Zhongdu, and he was so powerful!" Miao Daorun sighed: "What a terrifying future!"

Zhang Rou nodded: "Changzhou Guo Liulang is well-deserved!"

A few hundred steps behind the two men, a carriage was surrounded by soldiers.

In the carriage, Wanyan Congjia was uneasy. After these days of accompanying the army, he naturally knew that the soldiers around the carriage were all veterans. He also noticed that each of these veterans looked at the situation in the city, and gradually a smile appeared on their lips. More and more troops were transferred to the city and began to occupy some important places.

Wanyan Congjia knew very well what this meant, so under his extreme nervousness, he slowly began to feel uncontrollable ecstasy and anticipation.

Several times he wanted to lift the curtain of the car and take a look outside. He wanted to lead the armies into Zhongdu as a clan king. But when he raised his hand halfway, he put it down again.

Although his face was flushed and sweating, he tried his best to sit still.

Yi La Chucai, who was sitting opposite, knew that King Sheng did not want to appear in front of others rashly when the situation was uncertain, so he leaned slightly and said, "Your Highness, sit down for a moment, I will ask about the situation."

"Okay, okay! Thank you for thanking Jin Qing! Thank you for thanking Jin Qing!"

Wanyan Congjia already knew that the assassination of Chu Cai was the representative of Tu Danyi, so he was particularly polite to him.

Compared with the overwhelming momentum of Guo Ning's troops, the generals around Hu Shahu were all shaken.

They began to panic and became overwhelmed. In the rear cavalry, the war horses could best understand the knight's emotions, so several war horses neighed at the same time and stamped their hooves, trying to leave the queue.

Seeing this scene, Hu Shahu could only sneer: "A group of timid young people can't accomplish anything!"

Pulling out the long knife from his waist, he looked around viciously, staring at a few soldiers who were frightened by the enemy's momentum. The next moment, he picked one that looked particularly unpleasant to his eyes, rushed forward, held down the head, cut off the head in three or two strokes, and held it up in his hand by the braid.

He has been a marshal for decades and has great authority. He can kill anyone who wavers suddenly and all the soldiers will bow their heads.

Hu Shahu held the knife in one hand and the head dripping with blood in the other. He shouted sternly: "Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed! Anyone who falters will be killed! The number of enemy troops is not large, but they charge with the courage of ordinary men... to withstand this After a while, we can win!"

After shouting a few words, he turned to the leader of Meng Cong: "Go to the top tower and ask, there should be some iron artillery left, why don't you throw them away? Throw them all down and kill these thieves! Blow them up!"

The leader rushed up to the city in a hurry.

Weapons such as iron artillery are very partial and are inconvenient to make, store and use. Even if preparations were made both inside and outside Zhongdu to face the Mongolian army, not every city gate would be prepared; even if they were, they would be hidden deep in the warehouses and the number would be very limited. The Han army that had previously been in charge of the guard of honor in the palace moved from Gongchenmen to Zhaomingmen, and no one even thought of having such a sharp weapon.

But when he suddenly stopped throwing, it was not because there were insufficient weapons.

As soon as they came, Monk Luo roared like thunder in front of the city wall and led his troops to kill and keep approaching. A large number of defenders of the city tower went to stop the attack, but the inside of the city wall was empty. There were not even a few left to shoot arrows downwards.

Secondly, the two armies were intertwined below the city tower, and the enemy and we were already fighting in groups. Throwing a weapon as powerful as an iron cannon would probably kill an equal number of enemies and ourselves, so the soldiers responsible for throwing hesitated.

The leader of Nanchong was decisive and knew Hu Shahu's intentions very well. He ran to the top of the city, punched and kicked, yelling and cursing: "How can you hesitate at this time? Just killing the enemy general is better than killing a hundred enemies! A thousand! It means killing several people." Even if you are a member of your own family, you can make money! Light the fire quickly! Throw it in!"

Two soldiers hurriedly lifted the heavy iron can and carried it to the battlement wall. The other soldier held a candle and lit the fuse.

At this time, Guo Ning and his men had rushed straight to Donghua Gate and were within the throwing range of the iron artillery! This thing is not something that flesh and blood can resist!

The sharp-eyed soldiers on and off the city looked at the situation and all exclaimed: "Be careful!"
