Yuan Song woke up from his dream and shouted: "Retreat, retreat quickly, retreat to the inner city."
In addition to the outer city, the Hudu Fortress also has a small but strong inner city surrounding the granary, arsenal and the governor's mansion. It can be said to be the last defensive stronghold of the fortress, and more than 100,000 stones of military rations, and All the equipment of the defenders is also inside, and they will not retreat unless they are absolutely necessary.
But now we are at the end of our rope. Wei Shunzhi shouted: "Quick, help Mr. Yuan to the inner city. Everyone who can still move, retreat to the inner city immediately. Quick."
As he spoke, he threw away the shield in his hand, picked up the big bow, and fired towards the outside of the city. Many of the sergeants at the top of the city no longer bothered to go up and down the corridors. They were surrounded by blazing flames and poisonous smoke. The sergeants were like They kept jumping off the city top like dumplings. Some guys covered in fire jumped directly onto the catapults under the city, turning these big killer weapons that were still being fired out of the city into fireballs soaring into the sky.
There was a heavy sound of "bang" and "bang" at the city gate. It was obvious that the bandit army had already reached the door and started to knock on it. More than a hundred sergeants formed a human wall and pressed heavily against the city gate. , facing the heavy blows again and again, Wei Shunzhi jumped off the city wall and landed just outside the city gate. He turned to the soldiers blocking the door and shouted sternly: "Quick, retreat quickly, enter the inner city, don't leave. It’s too late!”
These sergeants seemed to have just woken up from a dream. In fact, although they could not see the scene on the city wall, just looking at the inner city, the sergeants jumping down from the top of the city and the burning catapults, they could see. Knowing that the battle was going badly, they saw Wei Shunzhi protecting Yuan Song and fleeing toward the inner city. These people finally dispersed and fled toward the inner city.
With a "boom", the gate fell heavily. Wei Shunzhi, who had run more than a hundred steps, looked back and saw Xu Daofu's giant figure standing at the city gate. In the smoke, he and the two men behind him More than a dozen giant men with heavy backs and heavy waists, holding sledgehammers, pestles and other heavy weapons, walked in with their heads held high. More than a dozen Hudu soldiers who still insisted on standing near the city gate waved their weapons and wanted to fight. One of them took the lead and gave them a blow. Xu Daofu swung his pestle, and it flew several feet away. Lines of blood spurted out in the air and scattered all over the ground. This frightened the other sergeants to the point where they almost froze on the spot, and even gave others The Celestial Master Taoist warriors killed each other on the spot, before they had time to react.
Xu Daofu twisted his neck, and the muscles and joints all over his body made a terrifying sound. He held the large pestle weighing several dozen kilograms in one hand, as light as a three-foot long sword, and pointed it directly at Yuan Song and Wei Shunzhi. In the direction of the inner city where people were waiting to evacuate, the flesh on their faces was beating: "Capture Yuan Song alive and light the sky lanterns!"
Hundreds of Tianshi Dao swordsmen who poured out behind him let out a burst of cheers and rushed in quickly. They were all wearing light armor and only carrying long swords. They moved as fast as cheetahs. On the streets of Hudu City, In the alleys, people were flying through the streets, whether they were ordinary people trying to escape from their homes to the inner city, or soldiers fleeing from everywhere, they were all stabbed to death on the spot, and they didn't even have time to wipe away the blood before they rushed towards the alleys. Next goal.
On the city wall, more and more Tianshi Dao archers climbed up. They did not put out the fire. They kicked away the poisonous smoke around them, cleared a space for shooting, and aimed at those who were still running in the city. The soldiers and civilians of Hudu were shot one by one by name. Throughout the city, screams, wailing, and cursing continued, and the sounds of swords and bows and arrows entering the body were endless.
Outside the city, Sun Enan was sitting on the shoulder carriage with a smile on his face, while Lu Xun was standing aside, with a look of unbearability on his face. Sun En turned to look at him: "Second brother, what do you have to say? Want to say?"
Lu Xun curled his lips: "Hudu should have been conquered. The fault lies with Yuan Song and the defenders, and has nothing to do with the people. We are going to Beijing now and we have to win people's hearts. It is best not to kill innocent people indiscriminately, otherwise... …”
Sun En waved his hand to stop Lu Xun from continuing: "Second brother, you are good at everything, but you are too kind to a woman. We who come out to hang out must keep our word. We said yesterday that we would destroy the city today." If you don’t stay, you must leave no chickens or dogs behind. It is my decree that no one in the city will be pardoned and no dog will be indulged, including the people outside the city. Kill them all and leave no one alive!”
There was a burst of cheers from the Tianshi Taoist army. The sergeants stationed outside the city began to line up their guns towards the people who were still focused under the city wall, firing arrows and stabbing at the same time, regardless of whether these people were kneeling. They still stepped forward to fight, but there was no difference in front of these Tianshi Dao sergeants who were arrayed in front of them. They fell down in pieces.
Lu Xun saw a trace of inexplicable excitement flashing across his face, and even watched the massacre as if he were watching a play. Sun En sighed softly. Sun En stretched, stood up from the shoulder carriage, and jumped He went down to the ground, patted Lu Xun on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Let's go, it's time to meet my good sister, your good sister."
Wei Shunzhi ran all the way, and in front of him, Chen Yi and the two guards almost took turns carrying Yuan Song on their backs, escaping towards the inner city. Behind them, there were more than a thousand broken soldiers following, and the common people who were left behind The sergeants led by Xu Daofu chased them all the way, but they bought them time to escape. The inner city was right in front of them, and the gate was open. Wei Shunzhi shouted: "Enter the city, enter the city quickly, enter the city, we There is still a way to survive!”
Suddenly, the door in front of him was slammed shut. Several sergeants who rushed at the front hit the door directly. Their heads were bruised and bloody, and they fell to the ground. Chen Yi, who was escaping with Yuan Song on his back, also almost escaped. Fortunately, he was quick and jumped back to avoid it.
Wei Shunzhi's expression changed, and he saw a dozen figures standing at the top of the city. It was Sister Aqing, Sister Zhen and others who had been rescued last night, but now they were all wearing armor and holding sharp swords. The blades were already stained red with blood, and some of the swords were even curled by the cuts. No one knew how many people had been killed along the way.
Aqing's sister-in-law threw a head off the city with a smile on her face: "Prefect Yuan, Zhang Shitong, the grain depot guard, would like to say hello to you."
Yuan Song was heartbroken. He looked at the head and cried out sadly: "Shi Tong, Shi Tong!"
Wei Shunzhi's eyes were filled with tears: "You, who are you?!"
Sister Ah Qing smiled and wiped it on her face, and a human skin mask fell off easily. A gorgeous face of about thirty, appeared in front of everyone, and Sister Zhen also turned into a woman in her twenties. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. "Sister Zhen" said: "Let me introduce you. My name is Sun Fang'er. I am the sister of Sun En, the great leader of the sect. My husband is Lu Xun. And this You are my husband’s sister, my aunt, and her name is Lu Lanxiang. Everyone, when you see the King of Hell, please give me the right name!"
