When Tian Hu heard this, he looked at the Jin Army formation below with trembling eyes. There was also a look of fear in his eyes, but this look quickly disappeared. As the king of Jin, if he was really a wimp, It is impossible to bring out such a team.
However, the Jin army in front of him was extremely powerful. Nearly half of his generals were dead, and at least a few of the remaining half were fearful and wanted to surrender to the Jin army.
In this situation, the crisis he faces is not only the Jin army, but also his own generals. If these people rebel, he will also be defeated, not to mention that he is already in a state of defeat. On the edge, there is almost no chance.
But if they surrender, the people in this city will become slaves of the Jin army, and even most of the people will be massacred.
"Your Majesty, don't hesitate anymore, surrender, we have no chance!" Shan Shiqi, the general on the side, said again.
When Tian Hu heard this, his eyes began to waver. Although he cared about the life and death of the common people, what he cared about most was his own life and death. He opened his mouth to agree.
But at this moment, Sun Qing and Qiong Ying looked at each other. Qiong Ying stabbed Shan Shiqi with a sword in an instant. Under the flash of cold light, Shan Shiqi immediately stepped back. Sun Qing took this opportunity and stabbed Shan Shiqi through his back.
Shan Shiqi turned his head to look at Sun Qing behind him in disbelief, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness. Sun Qing did not hesitate, sheathed the sword and stood up, looking at Shan Shiqi coldly.
Among the top ten generals under Tian Hu, Sun Qing's strength is second only to Qiao Daoan, and even stronger than Tian Hu. Shan Shiqi's strength is considered the weakest among the top ten generals.
And he is also the most afraid of death. Six of the ten generals have died. Among the remaining four, Sun Qing, who is in his fifties, Qiong Ying, who is twenty, and Yu Zhen'an, who is thirty, are all unwilling to surrender to the enemy. .
As for the generals under the top ten generals, half were unwilling to surrender, but half wanted to surrender and survive just like Shan Shiqi.
However, seeing Qiong Ying and Sun Qing team up to kill Shan Shiqi, the remaining generals shrank unconsciously and did not dare to have other thoughts.
Sun Qing looked at Tian Hu and said calmly: "Your Majesty, the Jinren are ambitious. Even if you surrender to them, you will become the second Emperor Jing Song Ji in the end. Our only way out now is to fight to the death..."
"Your Majesty, the Jin Army will not let us go... If you don't want to fight, we can have someone take you out of the encirclement." Qiong Ying followed. She was very beautiful and exuded a heroic spirit.
Yu Zhen'an was relatively straightforward. He didn't say anything. He just tightened the weapon in his hand to express his determination.
Tian Hu looked at the three remaining generals and other lieutenants in front of him. Although anger flashed in his eyes, he knew that if he fell out with a few people at this time, not to mention whether he could keep his position as the king. I'm afraid my life may be lost.
Several people already had opinions on him. If he provoked public anger at this time, the consequences could be imagined.
Tian Hu looked at the few people, nodded and said: "Let's fight... If it doesn't work, let's break out again!"
Following his voice, the Jin army outside the city began to attack the city, and the Jin army on the city wall started a fierce fight with the Jin army. However, the Jin army's artillery fire hit the city wall. Although it was live ammunition, it also killed many Jin troops.
At the same time, the fire blunderbuss in the hands of the soldiers of the Jin army who climbed up the city wall caused great casualties to the Jin army. The Jin army was shot dead on the spot before they could get close to the Jin army.
The city wall was barely defended for an hour before it was captured by the Jin army. Seeing this, Tian Hu quickly escaped down the city wall with the army, and they rushed in the other direction.
At the city gate over there, the Jin army's siege soldiers were relatively weak. They obviously wanted to escape through the city gate. As for the people in the city, Tian Hu couldn't care about that much.
Seeing this scene, Sun Qing, Yu Zhenan and others were filled with anger, but they were unable to stop Tian Hu from escaping. Moreover, they also know that there is nothing they can do. It was only a matter of time before the Jin army captured this city.
In desperation, the three men led nearly 10,000 soldiers and rushed towards the city gate on the other side. They chose to break out.
"Those who want to escape, come with us... We will fight for your chance..." Sun Qing, the leader, said to the chaotic people in the city.
The Jin army was about to attack the city, and the people in the city were already panicking. Those who could escape fled. The ones left behind were those who were lucky, or who really didn't know where to escape.
But now, they can't help it. Even if they don't know where to escape, they can no longer stay in the city and become the sword of the Jin army, or become the slaves of the Jin people.
The dense crowd of people followed more than 10,000 Jin troops including Sun Qing, Qiong Ying, Yu Zhen'an and rushed to the northern city gate. Tian Hu fled towards the east gate.
The two gates in the northeast were the weakest in defense for the Jin army, and the west gate was the focus of the Jin army's attack. The direction Tian Hu chose to escape was the safest in his opinion.
After all, the main force attacked the west gate, and the east gate was directly opposite, so the Jin army could not leave too many soldiers behind. As for the north and south gates, relatively speaking, it should be easier for the main force of the Jin army to catch up.
Tian Hu's side quickly escaped from the east gate, followed by about 20,000 soldiers. However, as soon as they rushed out of the east gate, they found that there were more Jin troops surrounding them than they had imagined.
The leader was none other than Wanyan Zongbi's son Zongyan Lu. He looked mockingly at Tian Hu in front of him and said jokingly: "My father has long guessed that you will escape from this direction. Xiao Wang, I have been waiting here for a long time. Tian Hu." Tiger King!”
Following his voice, a group of Jin soldiers behind him immediately rushed toward the Jin army. Seeing this scene, the army immediately wanted to flee back to the city, but they came in a hurry, and people followed and blocked the city gate. They could no longer go back.
Moreover, the Jin army has begun to pour into the city. Their only way to survive is to break through the blockade of the Jin army in front of them.
Tian Hu also knew this. He quickly raised his gun and rushed towards Wanyan Lu. The generals and Jin troops behind him who reacted also rushed towards the Jin army. In order to survive, they showed unprecedented courage.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides collided. However, the combat effectiveness of the Jin Army's cavalry was too strong. Even if the Jin Army burst out with extraordinary combat effectiveness, the Jin Army had an absolute advantage once they met.
The soldiers of the Jin army who rushed in front were killed on the spot by the Jin army's butcher knife in the blink of an eye. The battle loss ratio between the two sides actually reached ten to one, and even increased.
The frightened Jin army no longer dared to rush into the Jin army's formation. They turned to the side to escape, but the side was already surrounded at this time, and the Jin army also formed a siege. Unknowingly, they would They surrounded.
Surrounded by not only the Jin army, but also thousands of people who escaped with them. The Jin army rushed over fiercely, swinging their swords and guns, and heads were rolling. Both the people of Jin and the Jin army became the victims of the Jin army.
Wanyan Lu looked at the charging Tian Hu mockingly, and he raised his gun to meet him. The two fought for a round in the blink of an eye, and Tian Hu was forced back by Wanyan Lu.
Wanyan Lu took advantage of Jin Hu's opportunity to rein in his horse and try to escape, and fired the spear in his hand like a javelin. In the blink of an eye, the spear penetrated Tian Hu and shot him off his horse on the spot.
Tian Hu struggled to get up, but Wanyan Lu rushed over on horseback. The scimitar from his waist fell off, and Tian Hu's head flew out. Tian Hu, the king of Jin Dynasty, died in Wanyan Lu's hands.
Wanyan Lu turned around and saw that his soldiers were slaughtering the Jin army and the people of Jin one-sidedly. His lips were full of sarcasm.
Since they arrived in Jin, the Jin army had almost no resistance in front of them. After a few attacks, they were able to disperse the Jin army's morale. Their bravery made their army invincible.
Wanyan Lu thought of Yunze at this moment, and didn't know what would happen if he encountered Yunze and his army. Will his army destroy Yunze's army, or Yunze's army destroy him? .
However, his victory during this period has made his self-confidence somewhat inflated, and the new firearms have greatly improved his combat effectiveness. He believes that even if they encounter Yunze, they can easily destroy him.
Tian Hu was killed at the east gate, and Sun Qing, Qiong Ying, and Yu Zhen'an from the north gate rushed out of the city gate. A group of about 3,000 Jin Army cavalry soon appeared outside the city to greet them.
Seeing this scene, the three of them looked at each other and rushed forward. The Jin army really underestimated them. There were only three thousand defenders on the north gate. Ten thousand people on their side wanted to break through. They should not be able to break through. Disaster!
The 10,000 people led by the three men also happened to be cavalry. In the blink of an eye, ten thousand cavalry met the three thousand golden cavalry. At the same time, the people who escaped from the north gate fled in all directions.
Without the interception of the Jin army, most of the people fled, but some people remained in the city at a loss. There were also some who wanted to escape through the east gate or south gate, but in the end they became the dead souls killed by the Jin army.
The Jin Army doesn't care whether you are a commoner or not. As long as they see you, they will kill them without any hesitation. If she was a young woman, they would catch her and take her away.
Outside the three gates of the entire city. Corpses littered the fields, including those of old, weak, women, children, and even babies a few months old. A Jin Army soldier picked up the baby's body with a spear and laughed wildly.
And the Jin army began to rape and violently rape those women and children in the wilderness. Everywhere is the sight of the Jin army burning, killing, looting and the people of Jin crying and howling, as well as the screams and unwilling roars of fear of those who died tragically at the hands of the Jin army.
At the north gate, Sun Qing, Qiong Ying and Yu Zhenan collided with the Jin army here in an instant, and there were immediate casualties on both sides.
The generals of the Jin Army who fought against the three generals were killed by the three of them in just a few rounds. As for the soldiers of the Jin Army, they were simply vulnerable to them.
However, the combat effectiveness of the Jin Army's cavalry was extremely terrifying, with the battle loss ratio reaching almost five to one. This situation shook the morale of the Jin army led by the three men.
Seeing that the Jin army was about to collapse, at this time, the three men headed by Sun Qing shouted: "Brothers, if we retreat, the people behind us will have no chance to escape. Here or Even if we don't have your brothers and sisters, can we watch the Jin people kill our compatriots! Even if we die, we will never let them hurt our compatriots. Kill..."
As Sun Qinghe shouted, the remaining two people quickly echoed loudly. They rushed towards the Jin army with their personal guards. When the remaining Jin army saw this scene, their eyes became hot.
At this time, they also saw that during the charge, the Jin army actually took the opportunity to kill those people. They killed everyone they saw, and there was no humanity at all. The timidity in the hearts of the Jin army was replaced by anger.
Roaring, almost everyone in the Jin army rushed towards the Jin army, even if their combat effectiveness was not as good as theirs. But watching those Jin soldiers killing the people, and watching children of several years old struggling and crying. Watching those old, weak, women and children being mercilessly killed. They have forgotten to be afraid.
The officers and soldiers of the Jin army just wanted to kill the beasts in front of them on the spot. Even if they died with them, they still wanted to fight for a way for the people to survive.
The battle changed instantly, and the battle damage ratio also began to shrink, from five to one, to four to one, three to one, and even finally reached one to one.
The battle was extremely fierce and tragic. Even if the Jin army soldiers were injured, they would pounce on the Jin army, throw the opponent off his horse, and bite him with his mouth when his hands were gone. Since he had no legs, he wrapped his hands tightly around Jin Jun.
Their desperate look finally made the Jin army unable to withstand the pressure in their hearts, and began to collapse. Some Jin soldiers turned around and wanted to escape, but the Jin army with red eyes would not let them go.
In this way, until the end of the battle, even though they were several miles away from the north gate, they were still charging. All three thousand cavalrymen on the Jin Army's side were killed, while the Jin Army lost ten thousand people and only had a little over two thousand left.
When there was no more Jin army, the soldiers were still a little bit stunned. However, as everyone gasped, everyone realized that the Jin army had been defeated by them.
Everyone was in disbelief. Although they paid a heavy price, at least they saw that the Jin Army was not invincible.
Sun Qing looked at the disabled soldiers, and then looked toward the north gate. There were still people fleeing there. Fortunately, the Jin Army's defenders here had been wiped out, and no one came to stop these fleeing people for the time being.
And what they face is the decision of where to go. Sun Qing looked at Qiong Ying and Yu Zhenan.
"Do you have anything to say..."
Seeing Sun Qing ask, Qiong Ying and Yu Zhen'an looked at each other, then looked at Sun Qing. Qiongying took the lead and said: "Uncle Sun, I listen to you..."
Sun Qing and Qiong Ying's parents are family friends. Qiong Ying treats Sun Qing as her father, and Sun Qing treats her as her daughter. Yu Zhenan is relatively straightforward, so he is very close to the two of them.
"Uncle Sun, no matter where you go, I will follow you!" Yu Zhen'an also followed.
The land of Jin has been lost. Even if they still have more than 2,000 people, how can they fight against the Jin people with these 2,000 people. They could only choose to leave Jin, or find a force to seek refuge with.
Nowadays, the closest ones to Jin are Liangshanshuibo and Hu and Zhuerzhuang. As for going south to find Yunze, it is simply impossible.
Going south, they had to pass through the territory of Li Zheng, the king of the north, and the territory of the two kings of Kangming. Only then can we reach Yunze’s territory. For them, it is simply out of reach.
If two thousand people appear in the territory of Li Zheng and others, they will definitely be wiped out. At present, they either choose to hide in the mountains and forests, or go to Liangshan and Huzhu Erzhuang.
"My original intention was to join Mr. Yun Ze Yun. I heard that the Jin people did not get any benefits from him, but the journey is far away and it is impossible to reach it! Our best choice at present is to go to Huzhu Erzhuang and Liangshanshuibo. I heard that those two places are under the influence of Mr. Yunze, or that they have the ability to fight against the Jin people, so we just happened to go there and do our part."
He made his own choice. At the same time, he looked at Qiong Ying and Yu Zhen'an. His thoughts did not represent the two people opposite him. Although they said they would obey him, they were facing a life and death situation. He still hopes to let the two of them choose.
"Okay... Uncle Sun, let's go there." Qiong Ying's eyes brightened and she hurriedly said to Sun Qing.
Yu Zhenan also nodded.
Sun Qing heard the words, smiled at the two of them, then looked at the soldiers behind him and said: "I am going to Shandong Road. If any of you brothers are unwilling to go, please leave. The mountains here are high and the roads are dangerous. I'm afraid you will I can’t bear it. I, Sun, am not a person who imposes my will. If I want to go to gold hunting with Sun, I, Sun, will never give up on anyone!"
When the soldiers heard this, they looked at each other and shouted in unison. "We are willing to follow General Sun... let's go to Shandong Road to kill the Jin people!"
They themselves had nowhere to go. Although they could follow the people to escape, in these troubled times and under the noses of the Jin people, they were afraid that they would die at the hands of the Jin people before they left Jin.
Of course, there are also people who want to find their relatives, but with the war raging, they may not be able to find their relatives at all, or their relatives may have died long ago.
At this time, they only have hatred for the Jin people in their hearts. After the battle just now, these people are no longer what they used to be. They no longer have fear of the Jin people, but more hatred.
In this way, Sun Qing and his two men rushed towards Shandong Road with more than 2,000 men. Their destination is Huzhu Erzhuang.
