The saddest thing in the world is to witness the destruction of civilization with your own eyes.
Xu Yuan tightened his clothes and tremblingly pulled out the sword that was never unsheathed. Since civilization cannot be prevented from being destroyed, then let¡¯s destroy it with him!
"Brothers, pick up the big swords in your hands and fight for the Tang Dynasty!"
Xu Yuan roared loudly and walked towards Yuliang Road regardless of the dissuasion of his soldiers. His steps were so sure-footed, and his steps were so determined, as pious as a saint who had completed a sacrifice.
He clearly saw the fight between the Tang soldiers and the rebels on the Weirang Road. They were pushing and shoving. You cut me, and I stabbed you. In the end, both sides gnashed their teeth and hugged each other. They fell off the tower together and turned into children. pink.
A Hu soldier chopped off the arm of a Tang man with a knife, but then his head was cut off by a Tang soldier behind him with a horizontal knife.
On the battlefield, you never know who is standing behind you, and you never know what will happen in the next second.
Xu Yuan looked at this vivid picture calmly until he also fell into the painting.
He is a Tang Dynasty person. Although he is a literati, he is also a Tang Dynasty person!
The people of the Tang Dynasty will not flinch when faced with the butcher's knife of a foreign race, and the people of the Tang Dynasty will not run away when faced with the invasion of barbarians!
He Xu Yuan raised his sword for the first time in his life and pointed it directly at the rebels!
A Khitan soldier saw a civil servant with long sleeves and fluttering sleeves rushing towards him to die. He laughed and slashed at him with his sword. However, because he underestimated the enemy, his feet slipped and he fell heavily on his back. Xu Yuan seized the opportunity and slashed with his sword without hesitation, slitting the Khitan soldier's throat.
He killed someone, he Xu Yuan killed someone! It turns out that killing someone is so easy, haha
Seeing the blood foam pouring out from the wound, Xu Yuan felt a sense of pleasure for no reason.
I killed the rebels myself, I actually killed the rebels!
This kind of joy cannot be described in words. This is the joy of a Tang person who realizes his responsibility!
"Brothers, follow Master Xu and kill the enemy! The time has come to be loyal to the Tang Dynasty!"
"Kill, for the Tang Dynasty, for the Tang Dynasty!"
Xu Yuan's move of killing the rebels greatly shocked the Tang army at the top of the city. Seeing an untied scholar beheading an enemy, the faces of these soldiers turned red to the roots of their necks. No matter how bad they are, they can't be compared to a weak scholar, right?
"Fight, fight with them!"
"Kill, for the Tang Dynasty!"
The Tang army, which was already on the verge of collapse, was suddenly injected with infinite vitality. The soldiers took over their positions and fought hand-to-hand with the rebels at the top of the city.
By stabbing, chopping, chopping, and picking, the soldiers tried their best to push the rebels who had boarded the city back to Yuliang Road.
"Brothers, we have nowhere to retreat, we will advance and retreat together with Suiyang!"
Xu Yuan pointed his sword at the sky and screamed generously
An autumn rain came just in the middle of the night, extinguishing the torches dotted inside and outside Suiyang City.
The air is filled with the sweet smell of blood. A dozen days ago, Xu Yuan would have been nauseated and vomited, but today, he can breathe in the air calmly and enjoy the taste of killing.
Even he himself never thought that he could once again drive the rebels off the city with less than two hundred old and weak soldiers. The Weirang Road can lead to the city. But after all, it cannot take the most difficult step on behalf of the rebels.
They are afraid, of course they will be afraid!
As long as they are firmly trapped in the city, they will be able to capture Suiyang sooner or later, so attacking the city in advance is a risk. There is certainty of victory, but there is still risk. Of course, they will have ideas in their minds.
The rain washed away the blood stains on the sword very cleanly. Xu Yuan gently brushed the back of the sword and let out a long breath.
He used to only use the sword as a decoration and never thought that one day he would be able to kill people with the sword in his hand, but now it seems that killing people with a sword is indeed much more satisfying than reading books about sages.
"Sir Xu, what are you thinking about?"
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old Tang Bing dragged his injured leg to Xu Yuan's side and asked in a deep voice.
He was cut in the thigh during a fight with a Xiren warrior. The blade swung down and hit his inner thigh. If it had moved half an inch higher, his life would probably be gone. Therefore, this injury can be regarded as a blessing among misfortunes.
Xu Yuan put the long sword into its scabbard and said quietly: "I'm thinking about what the rebels will do after we die and Suiyang City is destroyed."
Xu Yuan is not worried that the rebels will massacre the city to vent their anger, because there are no civilians in Suiyang City except soldiers. When the rebels kill their own defenders, it means that the entire??Suiyang will become an empty city.
Xu Yuan is worried about whether the rebels will march directly south.
After all, the Tang court was only supported by taxes from Huainan and Shuzhong. If the Jianghuai land was captured by the rebels, the court's situation would be in jeopardy. Even if the city of Chang'an was captured, it would not have any real effect.
And if the rebels did not march south, it could only be because they were blocked. And now, looking around Suiyang, is there anyone who can stop the rebel army?
Ningling has sent out the last three thousand cavalry and basically no one is available. As for the land of Linhuai, although Helan Jinming had nearly 10,000 elite soldiers, he was a timid and greedy person. This can be seen from Nan Jiyun's flat refusal when he asked for help. He refused to send troops before Suiyang was conquered. How could Helan Jinming lead his army to fight if Suiyang city was really conquered?
Xu Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly. After thinking about it, he discovered that there was no one in the Tang Dynasty who could save the people from the fire and water.
Is this God mocking the Tang Dynasty?
"I heard that good and evil will be rewarded. Mr. Xu, you are all good people, and you will definitely be rewarded." Tang Bing smiled innocently and comforted Xu Yuan.
"Good deeds and evil deeds are rewarded?" Xu Yuan was slightly startled, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If it was true that deeds were rewarded for good deeds and evil deeds, then Suiyang would not be like this."
Maybe all of this is fate, it¡¯s all fate!
Linghu Chao looked at the Tang military flag still flying on the dark gray city wall, and his expression became very gloomy.
Damn it!
I sent tens of thousands of soldiers to attack the city from all sides at the same time but still couldn't capture Suiyang. I'm afraid of being laughed out of my mouth if I tell you!
"Zhang Xun, who is this Xun? Not only can the soldiers work for him at the risk of their lives, but he also instigates the rebellion of his own general Li Huaizhong. Following Li Huaizhong into Suiyang to defend the city were more than a thousand soldiers recruited from Xingyang, Dongdu and other places.
Although more than a thousand soldiers are only a drop in the bucket compared to our 100,000-strong army, every additional person in Suiyang City will make us farther away from capturing Suiyang. Zhang Xun is just like a stinky and hard stone in a latrine. It is simply a dream to expect him to take the initiative to surrender and offer the city. In this way, with this thousand-strong army, if he wants to capture Suiyang within three days, he must put all his bets on it!
But if this is the case, he will inevitably show his weakness in front of Yin Ziqi and be at a disadvantage. If he hadn't been forced by that guy to issue a military order, why would he have become so embarrassed!
That guy clearly disliked me and wanted to take the opportunity to correct himself. He knew clearly that Zhang Xun was a tough nut to crack, yet he forced himself to issue a military order to attack the city. In this way, if you capture the city by yourself and suffer serious losses, it will not be a great achievement. If he fails to capture the city on time, he can behead himself in public!
¡°Hiss, after this battle, I must rush to Luoyang and go to the DPRK to confront him, Yin Ziqi, for abusing military power and avenging his private enmity!
It¡¯s just that right now, he has to deal with Suiyang¡¯s long-term indestructibility.
"Come here, pass this general's order, and order the soldiers of the three armies to push crossbows to the north gate, and order three battalions of dead soldiers to resist the fierce attack on the other three gates. Suiyang City must be captured before nightfall, otherwise you will raise your head. Come and see me!¡±
Linghu Chao swung his sleeves angrily and ordered in a cold voice.
The ordering soldier shuddered upon hearing this, hesitated for a moment, and finally rushed to Linghu Chao and accepted the order.
This bed crossbow is a rare item in the whole country of Yan, with only a dozen of them. Since Suiyang could not be captured for a long time, Yin Ziqi repeatedly asked the emperor for support, and the emperor sent generals to escort the five crossbows to Suiyang.
Come on, this bed crossbow was just arrived yesterday.
Dayan¡¯s army had so many advantages but could not capture Suiyang City, and had to rely on the power of crossbows to attack the city. It is no wonder that the messenger showed contempt.
Relying on this method, even if Suiyang City is captured, not to mention that Linghu Chao will not get any merit, but his military merit of charging into the battle and killing the soldiers and generals will be greatly discounted.
But at this moment, Linghu Chao couldn't care about so much. He had a military order on his back. What he had to do was to capture Suiyang City as quickly as possible, no matter what the means!
ps: Well, the further you write, the more difficult it becomes. Are you so confused when it¡¯s about to end? Amen, I'm about to collapse, please give me some praise or something.
