Chapter 332 Flooded Hebei
Just when Jingning's army was in a brief panic, more than twenty cavalrymen escaped from the wind and sand. They were all shouting howls of terror, their bodies were covered in blood, and their helmets were discarded.
Before they had run far, more than a dozen brown-red cavalry appeared in the wind and sand. Their full-moon scimitars shone with blood in the chaotic yellow sand. The latter was extremely fast and had already rushed behind Tuqu's deserters.
The red light flashed, leaving no one alive.
The defenders on Mubiao City were closer to the killing, and some people had already seen clearly the appearance of the pursuers, and they shouted heartbreakingly: "Monster! Monster!"
The dozen or so brown and red cavalry did not slow down, but went straight towards the Jingning Army.
The front troops of the Jingning Army reacted quickly. They formed a shield formation in three rows, with their spears placed horizontally on the iron shields. Their strong bows first shot at the formation's feet, and then the firecrackers in the shield formation exploded one after another.
As soon as they set up their defensive position, the Jingning Army was surprised to find that neither bows, arrows nor firecrackers overturned any of the brown and red cavalry. The arrows or projectiles only slightly stagnated the enemy and did not cause any damage. It was as if they were facing a heavy attack.
Armored cavalry is average.
In just such a moment of hesitation, the enemy cavalry rushed forward. The Jingning army did not look at them. At the first sight, everyone was frightened.
The commander-in-chief, Zhong Dou Guankui, recognized the enemy first, and a line of ice suddenly sank down his spine. He was responsible for guarding King Jing, and immediately gave an order: "The left and right formations move forward to block the enemy, and the Chinese army protects King Jing!"
Heroic move!
Cold sweat instantly soaked the back of Prince Jing's clothes.
Watching just a dozen monsters tear a hole in the front army's defense, and looking into the distance, the shadows in the wind and sand were all brown and red. Compared with the situation on the day of Zhong Xuan's coup, it was really...
A small witch can see a big witch. There may not be ten thousand but eight thousand monsters today.
The shadow of Zhong Xuan's failure in the coup d'état hung heavily on Prince Jing's mind. His mouth was dry and bitter. Looking at the remains of the soldiers flying in the front army, he would definitely suffer a big loss if he had to go head-to-head with the British demon army. He forced himself to calm down at the moment.
Weiyi planned to issue military orders immediately.
"The rear army becomes the front army and rushes towards Qianjing. The front, left and right armies become the rear army. Their main purpose is to block the enemy's army. Don't be reluctant to fight."
Although they encountered a formidable enemy, the Jingning Army still changed its retreat formation in a panic. The Yingzhao army had all reached the west of Mulie City. The three armies on the left and right in front of the Jingning Army as a cover fought desperately to block it, winning a five-mile gap for King Jing's guard.
Earth’s escape space.
Thirty thousand against ten thousand, although the Jingning army has an advantage in numbers, the Yingzhao monster has rough skin and thick flesh, which cannot be cut with a knife or pierced by a gun. It takes ten Jingning soldiers to defeat a Yingzhao and resist.
Soon, the defense line was broken, and the demon army rushed from left to right. Except for a few who escaped, most of the Jingning army was wiped out.
The yellow sand is long, and the Yingzhao army appears. Three pale-haired leaders appear. The leader Yingzhao is covered in golden hair. His body is more than a head taller than the ordinary Yingzhao. He howls lowly at the white-haired Yingzhao on the left and right. The white-haired Yingzhao seems to be the leader
Order, one led a team of three thousand red-haired heroes to pursue the Jingning Army, and the other gathered the remaining demons to attack Mulie City.
The west wall of Mubiao City is high and thick. Ordinary military strategists will not attack here easily. The Hebei Army suffered a big loss under the city not long ago. However, the Yingzhao Demon Army did not care about this. They charged under the city and repeated their old tricks.
, the Arhats piled up a wall of flesh against the city's roots, and in an instant it was already half-way up the city.
The city defenders had never fought such a battle before. It took them a long time to recover from the panic, and they hurriedly smashed down the rolling logs and stones stacked on the top of the city like hailstones, and fired wildly with strong bows and crossbows as if they were free of charge.
It's a pity that these defensive measures can't help the rough-skinned heroic moves.
The one on top fell to the ground, shook his head and continued to rush upward. The one on the bottom climbed up desperately, as if fighting for a treasure without giving in.
In just a moment, the first Yingzhao jumped onto the wall. Amidst the evil roar, his scimitar swung up two lines of blood, and six or seven defenders were immediately bloody.
The Yingzhao's combat power was too strong. As soon as the defenders pushed this one down, three more jumped up on the other side. With a full moon scimitar, there was no one standing in a five-step radius.
Once a gap was opened in the defensive circle, British troops would continuously attack the city.
Poor Hongyuan elite veterans, half of them died in the battle. Lai Qingsheng had never seen such a battle before, so he hurriedly abandoned the city and fled. The north was densely populated with monsters, so he had to follow the example of the Tuqu people and flee southward.
The general fled, but the soldiers still had no fighting spirit. Those who could escape had all fled. Those who could not escape could only wait for a more tragic fate.
The golden-haired Yingzhao King strutted into Mulie City with his head held high. In its eyes, the people in the city were all the demon army's rations. His subordinates had not eaten well all day, and their heads were already hungry and red-eyed. They were just waiting for the order to start the meal.
The King of Yingzhao waited quietly in a show of force. After his subordinates pushed up a strong sergeant, he separated his arms, tore off a leg alive, opened his big red mouth and bit it, and the Yingzhao formation suddenly burst into ghostly howls.
Poor Mudituo City, all the living and dead people in the city have fallen into the belly of monsters.
King Jing's defeated army ran wildly all the way, and the layers of infantry fortified along the way were almost destroyed under the impact of the following heroic troops. Only eight thousand cavalry were left to follow closely.
Ying recruited nearly 2,000 troops to pursue him, and all of them were starving. They chased, killed and ate him, but they still clung to Prince Jing.
After running wildly for nearly half a day, we could already see the big city of Qianjing. Huangfu Lianzhi had already received an urgent order and led the defenders out of the city to respond.
Waiting for King Jing to enter the city, the Yingzhao army from behind has already arrived. At this moment, all of King Jing's troops have not entered the city. If Huangfu Lianzhi follows him and rushes into the city, the Yingzhao army will definitely be able to enter the city as well.
He had a very good personal relationship with Guan Qiubei. Guan Qiubei died in the battle with Yingzhao at Zhongxuan. Now Huangfu Lianzhi also made a death wish. Firstly, he wanted to protect his lord, and secondly, he wanted to avenge his friend. He looked in the direction of Jiqing, feeling in his heart Silently bidding farewell to his family, he looked around at the three thousand heroes, who were all tragic but unafraid. There was no need for words at this moment. He gave an order and rushed towards the demon army with all their might.
The soft one is afraid of the hard one, and the hard one is afraid of death.
The British soldiers were dazzled by the victory and thought they could still defeat the dead. Unexpectedly, they ran into these desperate soldiers head-on, and their heads were bruised and bloody on the spot.
Huangfu's army fought to the death with Yingzhao, and King Jing had already ascended the city. He couldn't bear to lose this general, so he sent Lang Hu to rescue Huangfu Lianzhi with all his strength.
However, after searching the chaotic formation, he could no longer see the leader and his banner. For the sake of the overall situation, King Jing reluctantly gave up and ordered the defenders to cut off the gates and lock them down.
Three thousand Huangfu troops were all loyal. Prince Jing stood in the wind and sand at the top of Qianjing City, swaying as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He saw the heroes fighting to eat away at the corpses of the loyal soldiers, but he was powerless. He felt extremely painful in his heart, and his eyesight turned black. He almost fell out of the city through the battlements.
The generals rushed him to the arrow tower, but his mind was already in a trance.
Why is this monster always causing trouble at the most critical moment of my progress?
Is it really true that God does not allow me to write high-quality articles?
If Gao Liwen was not allowed, how could he bury so many people with him? It would be better to fall ill and die cleanly.
The more I think about it, the more frustrated I become, and the more I worry about it, the more my heart breaks.
He also remembered the secret letter Chang Yu sent to him from Baiyue a few months ago. The child had truly warned him of a big disaster, but it turned out to be such a cruel method, but he didn't pay enough attention to it, or maybe he said , Shen Shen didn’t take his words seriously at all.
But even if I believe it, how can I guard against this heroic move? How can I break it? As soon as despair sets in, I immediately lose my spirit.
After being confused for a long time, a sudden flash of clarity occurred.
Chang Yu, a scholar, how can he detect the evil on June 12, unless he has the real ability of Si Tianjian Xiangtian? If he is so capable, he may also be able to decipher the secrets of Yingzhao, and maybe he can also spy on my destiny. .In his confusion, he already had the intention of looking for Chang Yu.
King Jing's condition was temporarily unable to command the entire army, so military advisor Xia Wuming took over the command according to the order.
He first sent an order to quickly warn Jiqing and other four towns in Hebei and the valley leaders, and made preparations in advance to clear the country and occupy the city for defense.
Then order the East China Sea Fleet in Gulu Port to prepare for sailing. If Qianjing fails to defend, he will immediately evacuate to Xuehuang Port by sea.
Finally, under Dou Guankui's reminder, he found a former centenary of Zhong Xuan's Red Front Army, and carefully inquired about Yu Zhan's formation to resist the British attack, and ordered the entire army to practice day and night.
The Yingzhao Demon Army did not leave Qianjing much time to breathe. The wind and sand had stopped the next day. Before noon, the golden-haired Yingzhao King led a large force to join the vanguard. Looking at this city that was more than five times larger than Muleocheng, he imagined Looking at the "mountain of flesh and sea of corpses" inside, the morale of all the monsters increased greatly.
Still without any tactics, they relied entirely on heroic moves to form a mountain, rising foot by foot towards the top of Qianjing City.
The defenders resisted desperately and fought until evening. Although they suffered heavy losses, no British troops were able to attack the city.
While the fierce battle was taking place in Qianjing City, the Guhua Port, twenty miles to the northeast, was also in a state of tension. The East China Sea Fleet entered a state of combat readiness, and the sailors and infantry were preparing in disorder at the dock like a colony of ants.
On the seawall south of the deep-water port, a rickety old man got out of the cabin of a small boat. He looked at the distant city that was fighting in the shadow of the mountains, and then raised his eyes to look at the sunset that was about to sink between the thick clouds and the mountains. Suddenly he coughed violently.
"People in Hebei, Shan is guilty. If you don't sacrifice yourself this time, it will be difficult to save everyone. I will apologize to you again on the road to Huangquan!"
The old man slowly straightened up, his dark eyes glowing faintly, and he was still mumbling to himself.
"Brother Hu, Brother Hu, what you measured is not wrong at all. All the old guys have wrongly blamed you! Chang Yu, Chang Yu, I'm afraid I'm going to break my promise with you!"
He slowly raised his arms, and the calm sea gradually became anxious.
"Brother Deer, Brother Deer, it turns out that you saved my life for today's mission. You have turned into a breeze and am at ease, leaving me with a broken body. How can I not do my best for the common people in the world! Just wait for me, the past and present can turn into It’s cloudy.”
The old man's two thin arms were raised high above his head. The east wind was howling and whimpering. The dark sea outside the seawall was getting more and more violent, with clouds of white foam beating against the dam. The fleet of the deep-water port had just sailed out of the breakwater. The sudden wave forced back into the embankment.
The old man waved his arm violently, and a huge wave hit the embankment.
With another wave of his arms, the waves became even more turbulent.
As the old man kept waving his arms forward, the waves became higher and higher, and the huge impact hit the seawall hard.
The seawall eventually fell into disrepair. Under the constant impact of big waves, a gap first opened, and then the gap became larger and larger, and finally collapsed.
The sea water more than ten feet above the horizon exerted huge pressure on the seawall. With a dull loud noise, the Gulu Harbor South Levee collapsed.
The turbid sea water rushed down the land with great force, destroying the sky and the earth along the way, and rushed towards the lower-lying Qianjing City.
The violent sounds of fighting under Qianjing City were immediately overshadowed by the rolling thunder coming from the east. The human and demon armies no longer cared about fighting. They watched a black dragon roll across the ground, and they all stayed there without responding.
On the head of the flood, stood a haggard old man. He seemed to be standing on the head of a huge beast from the ancient times. Wherever he pointed his finger, the beast rushed towards him.
The raging tsunami was like a landslide and like a violent thunder, and it was unclear whether the hurricane was aided by it or caused by it. The wind and waves rolled over and crashed into the Yingzhao Demon Army outside the city.
The sky moved due to the earthquake, and the rain started due to the tide. For a time, the thick clouds turned into heavy rain, pouring down to help the torrent on the land.
Under the huge momentum of the tsunami, the northeastern corner of Qianjing City collapsed, and sea water poured into the city, making the city feel like a water prison.
However, all the soldiers and civilians in the city were thankful that this incredible force had completely wiped out all the monsters outside the city.
The seawall collapsed too much, and the sea water poured in crazily, forming a wide river from the Gulu Port to the east of Luhuang Shandong. The sea water hit the Xingshan Mountain and turned southward, washing all the way and flowing into the Yanluo River. Half of Hebei Province There is a big island nearby.
It was not until the low tide that the officers and soldiers of the East China Sea Fleet hurriedly mended the embankment. After mending it, it collapsed, and after it collapsed, it mended again. It took more than half a month to plug the gap.
At this point, although the remaining British troops were still as ferocious as ever, they were unable to cross the wide and deep waterway for a while, so they had to turn their appetite back to the north and look west to covet Hongyuan City.
There was a war in the north of Daning. There were Yingzhao in the east, Fuxi in the middle, and Yongzhu in the west. Monsters appeared in groups like emerging from the cracks of hell, harassing villages and attacking towns. At dawn, more than a thousand people were killed by the monsters. One hundred, Zhong Xuan's court was so weak that it could no longer take care of everything.
