Chapter 842 841 [Same robe as the son]

Li Jin left Beijing very early and has not been back to Kyoto in these years. Naturally, he has never met Ye Qi.

But he was no stranger to Pei Yue's affairs. The two had also exchanged letters over the years. He knew that Pei Yue would get married at the end of this year and that he would have two brides. One of them was the only daughter of his benefactor Gu Liang.

, the other one is Ye Qi, a martial arts master who is becoming more and more famous.

Li Jin is a kind-hearted person and has been worrying about what kind of generous gifts he should prepare, because he is where he is today thanks to Gu Liang's appreciation on the one hand, and on the other hand because of his contribution to the suppression of bandits in Hengduan Mountain. But he did not expect it.

, the gift is not ready yet, today my life was saved by Ye Qi again, I couldn't help but say with shame: "Miss Ye, thank you for saving my life."

Ye Qi put aside his cold look and said gently: "Brother Li, you and Pei Yue are brothers and sisters, so there is no need to take such a trivial matter to your heart."

Instead of being qualified for official title, he was treated as an eldest brother. Li Jin felt particularly comfortable, nodded and said: "Okay."

With the arrival of Ye Qi, the crisis in Dongcheng has been slightly alleviated.

When she stood at the top of the city with a gun, there was never an enemy under her gun. Even though the Zhou army kept climbing up, she still had the energy to share some of the pressure on the Yanshan Guards. This scene made the defenders feel excited.

After all, this era is very harsh for women, and it is difficult to get ahead like men.

However, what they saw with their own eyes today was a man dressed in red standing on the city wall, as if one man was blocking the way and no one could open it.

No one can break through her range.

Naturally, the generals of the Southern Zhou Dynasty under the city also discovered the top expert. General Fang Yun looked gloomy. He wanted to rush forward to solve this problem several times, but was stopped by the soldiers around him. He also knew that this was not the time for a battle of spirits, so he could only order the archers.

Keep pressing forward and focus on taking care of the master above.

Ye Qi was fearless and shouldered a line of defense by herself. No matter whether it was cold arrows or swords and guns, they were all broken by her shot.

Only occasionally she would glance at the distant west.

The fierceness of the Zhou army's offensive today made the city defense in danger. Bo Cai Qian of Baoding stood in the city tower holding his sword, listening to the urgent reports coming from all over the place. His hands holding the sword became tighter and tighter, but he always maintained his posture.

Calmly and orderly dispatch reinforcements to fill the gaps everywhere.

Gu Jie was responsible for guarding the west city. Most of the soldiers under his command were the defenders of the city, and a small number were Jingjiang guards brought from the north bank.

"Report to Uncle Baoding quickly, Xicheng can be defended!"

"Follow the order!"

As the eldest son of Gu Liang, Gu Jie was trained according to the strictest standards from childhood to adulthood. Although his martial arts talent is not as good as Gu Fan, he is already considered a rare master in the military.

He is stronger than Gu Fan in every aspect, especially his tenacious temperament and ever-high fighting spirit.

In comparison, the defenders on the west side of the city have the smallest strength, with only about 4,000 people, including 500 archers.

As time went by, more and more Zhou troops boarded the city. Gu Jie led his most loyal soldiers into the forward position and repeatedly fought for every inch of the city wall.

Blood has stained his shirt, but his eyes are still extremely determined.

"Young master, be careful!"

A sharp shout sounded from the side and behind, and then a figure rushed over, using his chest to block the extremely insidious steel knife for Gu Jie, and stabbed the enemy in the abdomen with his backhand. He held the handle of the knife with both hands, gritted his teeth and made a killing sound,

Directly push the opponent off the towering city wall and smash into pieces.

Gu Jie swung his spear and rushed forward like a strong wind. He swept his spear and killed several enemies. Then he turned back and came to the comrade. He looked at this soldier who had followed him many years ago.

, I saw blood pouring out of his mouth and a deep wound on his chest.

"Alive..."

The soldier tried his best to say two words, staring at Gu Jie with wide eyes until he died.

Gu Jie raised his hand to wipe off his eyelids, laid his body down on the inside of the city wall, then charged forward with his gun in hand without saying a word.

Scenes like this can be seen everywhere, and people die heroically almost every moment. Among them are generals and soldiers, some have already married and established a career, and some are just young faces. They all have worries that they can't let go, but they can't let go of what's in front of them even more.

The defense line and the perseverance in the heart, facing endless enemies, no one chooses to be a cowardly deserter.

The city's defenses were in constant danger, but five thousand sharp soldiers stood neatly on the main road in the city.

From beginning to end, Baoding Bocai Qian never used this reserve team.

These soldiers were all from Jingjiang Guards. Their armor was bright and their expressions were cold and solemn. Listening to the roaring sounds of fighting coming from above, everyone was trying their best to suppress the murderous intention in their hearts. There were actually a total of 40,000 defenders in the city, but except for the last

On the day they entered Jiangling City, these 5,000 elite soldiers were hidden in the city by Cai Qian and Gu Jie until they were able to defend the city.

Although they have been recharging their energy, no one is willing to bear the strange looks from other colleagues.

"General, when can we go to war?" Someone finally couldn't help asking anxious questions.

"We soldiers should obey orders and act accordingly, why are you making noise!" the deputy commander scolded him sternly, but his expression was far from calm.

The situation is already extremely critical. What on earth is Mr. Baoding waiting for?

Except for a very few people, no one knew the correct answer, but these soldiers, who had not had a good night's sleep in ten days, still gritted their teeth and persisted.

Sheng Duanming, the minister of etiquette with white beard and hair, led the officials and mixed with the peasants, shouting slogans to carry the equipment needed to defend the city. The old scholar stumbled and fell to the ground, but resisted the help of others and struggled to get up.

, not caring about the dirt on his body, he continued to pick up two quivers and rushed to the top of the city.

The sun moved from the east to the top of the head, and this bloody battle had lasted for more than two hours.

Li Jin's steps became frivolous.

Gu Jie's hands began to tremble slightly.

Even Ye Qi's hair began to become messy.

Of course the Zhou generals under the city knew that success or failure depended on this, so they kept urging the soldiers to charge forward.

Baoding Bocai Qian walked out of the city tower and looked at the wolf smoke and killings all over the place. He turned to look at the five thousand elite soldiers in the city. They were the last family members and the last hope. If even they were sent to the city wall, Jiangling City would fall into chaos.

A real desperate situation.

But now we have reached the final moment.

"Send the order——" Cai Qian roared loudly with his beard and hair spread out.

The herald looked at him nervously.

"General! General!" An excited shout suddenly sounded not far away.

Cai Qian hurriedly walked over and stood up to take a look. His eyes suddenly lit up and he couldn't help but roar. Then the cheers of countless soldiers instantly resounded through the city, shocking the whole world.

To the west of Jiangling City, a torrent of cavalry swept over.

After three days of hard work, with the help of the horses obtained from defeating the Dingshan Camp, the Zangfeng Guards, one man and two horses, even ate and drank on their mounts, only maintaining the necessary sleep time, and finally arrived in time.

They are dusty, they are a little embarrassed, and they are no longer as dazzling as they used to be.

But there is an indomitable light in each of their eyes.

Like thousands of long arrows, bypassing the tragic and complicated battlefield, heading towards the Zhou army's main formation parked at the rear, they shot straight into the heart of the enemy!
