The setting sun is like blood, and the colorful clouds are like brocade.
North gate of Yiling City.
Rivers of blood flowed, swords were scattered, corpses were piled up on the street, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.
Then, dozens of figures appeared in the pile of corpses.
These are the soldiers of the Shu army who came to clean this purgatory battlefield.
Even though they were elite soldiers who had been on the battlefield for a long time, they couldn't help but frown when they saw such a terrifying scene.
On the top of the high city, there are many military flags and sergeants standing at attention. At this moment, the city gate tower has been replaced with a Shu military commander's flag with the word "Zhao".
The person in charge of the defense of the North Gate was Bai Chenjun's deputy general, Zhao Fei.
A young man wearing a white shirt and silver armor strode over, carrying a long red-stem sword.
Finally, we stopped at the top of the tower and under the parapet.
Under the setting sun, his resolute face was full of solemnity.
Although the North Gate was breached, it was a very difficult question for the Shu army, which lacked troops, to be able to hold the North Gate.
Without thinking too much, Lu Xun learned that the North Gate and other gates had been breached by the Shu army, and they would be attacked by a large number of soldiers. What followed would be a fierce battle.
Right now, he hoped that Liu Bei's army outside the South Gate City could successfully attack the South Gate. In this case, Yiling City would truly change hands and become their Shu army's.
Sudden,
A soldier of the White Army ran up to the tower in panic. The white tassel on his helmet reflected like a white flame.
"No, General Zhao, there is an unknown enemy force coming towards our north gate."
The white soldier gasped for breath and pointed in the direction of the city, his expression uneasy and frightened.
To be able to frighten the Bailian Army so much, I think the enemy must have a lot of background.
Zhao Fei's brows furrowed more and more, "Don't panic, but can you tell who the enemy's Wu army is?"
"I don't know, either. Their soldiers are not wearing dark green military uniforms of the Wu Army. They are light purple military uniforms that we have never seen before. However, I saw their military flag and it said "Defending Army." Bai Juebing thought for a moment and answered. road.
"The Difficult Army!?" Zhao Fei's expression changed, "This is the private tribe of the Chen family in Yiling City."
"Chen Family Tribe." The soldiers of the Bailian Army said in horror, "These tribesmen are densely packed with countless soldiers, including infantry, archers, cavalry, and all kinds of arms. A private tribe in Yiling City has such top-notch armaments. This Yi Lingcheng cannot be underestimated."
"Pass my military order, all the soldiers of the Baijie Army should quickly go to the tower and prepare for battle." Zhao Fei was shocked, but did not show it and pretended to be calm. After all, as a general in the army, his every word and deed is linked to the army. If you act timidly, your morale will be low.
"Yes, will..."
Bloody light flew, and before the White Army soldier could finish speaking, he was shot through the throat by a sudden arrow cluster, and finally fell on Zhao Fei.
Zhao Fei's expression changed drastically and he looked in the direction where the arrows were flying.
He couldn't help but look pale and shocked.
I saw,
At some point, dozens of archers in purple military uniforms appeared on the attic in Beimen Street.
Each person did not wear a helmet, their hair was tied up, and they only had a purple strip of cloth tied on their foreheads. Although they were far away, you could still see the killing intent in each of their eyes.
"It's the Difficult Army!" Zhao Fei shouted loudly, "Get ready for battle."
These archers of the Difficult Army were actually able to escape the eyes of their soldiers who were hiding in the dark, and secretly found their way to the north gate to attack them.
It seems that there is only one possibility. All the hidden sentries of the enemy were discovered by the archers of the army who came to attack them secretly, and were eliminated together.
What a powerful trouble-shooting army! Its combat power is even more powerful than that of Wu's army.
After receiving Zhao Fei's order, the soldiers of the Baiji Army on the city tower, as if they were facing a formidable enemy, took their bows and arrows and shot at the Dingnan Army in the attic of the city.
A burst of arrows flew by,
The archers of the Dingnan Army crouched and hid in the darkness of the attic. They relied on the protection of the attic to avoid the arrow attack.
Below the city tower, dozens of soldiers from the Baiji Army who were cleaning up the battlefield saw enemy troops appearing in a building not far away.
He hurriedly dropped the equipment blade in his hand and ran towards the tower.
The enemy is in the dark, I am in the light,
If you don't run now, you will be pierced by thousands of enemy arrows!
However, they reacted quickly, and how quickly could they pass the arrow clusters of the archers of the Dingren Army.
These archers from the Dingnan Army who came to attack secretly sneaked here and locked the Baijie Army under the city tower.
"Tuk!"
"Tuk!"
"Tuk Tuk"
Dozens of arrow clusters were fired from all directions in each attic, targeting the soldiers of the White Army who were escaping on the stairs.
There were screams, sharp arrows penetrated the armor and went straight into the body,
All the white soldiers on the stairs were outnumbered by the enemy's arrows, and they were all killed with one arrow. They fell down with a sound, and their bodies fell heavily to the ground.
After dealing with the soldiers of the Baijie Army on the stairs, the archers of the Dingnan Army hiding in the darkness of the attic did not stop and fired arrow clusters at the Baijie Army on the tower again.
Fortunately, the city tower is very high, with a height of ten feet, while the attic in the city is only three feet. It is too difficult to attack high places from low places. Therefore, the arrow clusters fired do not cause much damage, and most of them are hit. On the wall of the city tower.
Occasionally, a few unlucky ones were killed by arrow clusters.
in this short time.
The archers of the Dingnan Army hiding in the darkness of the attic killed dozens of soldiers of the Shu Army.
Zhao Fei's face was livid with anger, and he cursed loudly at the distant attic, "Rat, what kind of hero can you be if you hide in the dark and release cold arrows when you have the guts to come out?"
The archers of the Dingnan Army in the dark did not reply. Instead, he continued to respond to Zhao Fei with arrows.
now,
Zhao Fei was so angry that he almost wanted to go downstairs and rush out to kill all the archers of the Difficult Army hiding in the darkness of the attic.
But, on second thought,
Now that these sneak attack archers have arrived, then why their main force has not arrived yet.
Could it be that he wanted to use these archers as bait to lure him out so that he could ambush around them.
Then, they launched a massive attack on the north gate.
Zhao Fei hurriedly ordered the soldiers not to act rashly.
After a long time.
A sharp whistle came from the attic in the city.
Immediately afterwards,
The cry of killing shook the sky, the light of swords and shadows.
The endless killing intent is like a stormy sea. Sweeping around the entire north gate.
Countless soldiers of the Dingnan Army wearing purple military uniforms rushed toward the North Gate Tower from all directions and every street.
A large scroll with Chinese characters on one side, fluttering in the wind, stands in the center of the Dingnan Army.
A young man wearing black armor, holding a halberd, stood among them, his armor raised, majestic.
He is none other than Chen Qing, the deputy commander of the Dingnan Army.
On the order of his father Chen Wei, he brought two thousand troops from the Huying camp to attack the north gate.
Chen Qing, who was not conceited, wanted to use this battle at the North Gate to establish his own prestige, thus consolidating his position as deputy commander of the army.
So as to lay a solid foundation for taking charge of the Chen family in the future. In addition, there is another main reason: he wants to compete with the rumored Li Jun.
