- "This guythis guy"
"He actually killed Lord Heavenly General"
On the tower of the west gate of Guangling City, hundreds of Taiping Army guards looked at the man surrounded by them in horror, the assassin holding a strange iron chain knife.
From the words of Zhang Hong, the general of the Five Directions and the Heavenly General before his death, these Taiping Army guards finally realized the monster they were facing, a top assassin in the world with a blood debt of no less than ten thousand.
The great assassin, "Sickle" Mo Fei!
"Surroundsurround him!"
"Don'tdon't let him run away!"
Countless Taiping soldiers were distantly surrounding the monster that they did not dare to attack and kill. They only dared to verbally express their anger. Because they have long realized that the two are by no means on the same level.
[Not very strong, what are the so-called generals in the rear army In comparison, Fei Guo and Liao Li are stronger Well, Ma Dan is not good either, only Fei Guo and Liao Li are]
Ignoring the angry and fearful looks around him, Mo Fei stood next to Zhang Hong's body, slowly wiping the blood on the chain knife with a white cloth, as if the Taiping soldiers around him were just local chickens and dogs in his eyes. Generally vulnerable.
Finally, Mo Fei wiped off the blood on the chain knife. He turned his head and glanced at the Taiping soldiers who looked like they were facing an enemy. He immediately jumped up on the wall and jumped down towards the city before disappearing. In the night.
From the beginning to the end, the Taiping soldiers not only did not dare to chase, they did not even dare to shout to leave Mo Fei. They could only watch as Mo Fei walked away after succeeding.
Because the level between the two is really far apart
"Whatwhat should I do?"
While rejoicing that Mo Fei, the God of Killing, had left, all the Taiping soldiers looked at each other in shock.
Finally, one person stood up and whispered, "Repay Commander Wu for this matter"
The Taiping soldiers looked at each other and nodded slowly.
"Ah, let's do it this wayit's all up to Commander Wu to decide!"
Zhang Hong, one of the five generals under Wu Heng, the fourth-generation commander-in-chief of the Taiping Army, and one of the Five Heavenly Generals, was killed by an assassin affiliated with the Zhou Army, Sickle Mofei, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Dongling. .
Although the Taiping guards at the West City Gate deliberately tried to cover it up, the news still spread like wildfire and spread within the Taiping Army. It has to be said that Zhang Hong's death brought a huge blow to the Taiping Army. After all, Zhang Hong was the chief general of Guangling City's city defense. He controlled the entire city defense of Guangling in the name of Wu Heng, the fourth-generation commander-in-chief of the Taiping Army. It was difficult to Imagine that he would be sniped by an assassin while being protected by many Taiping soldiers, by a great assassin who was superior to most assassins.
But having said that, Zhang Hong's death in battle only had an impact on the morale of the Taiping soldiers near the West City Gate. At least the Taiping soldiers in other places were still full of fighting spirit and eager to remove the South City Gate from the hands of Niu Zhu's army. Take it back.
Yes, the south gate of Guangling City has fallen into the hands of Niuzhu Army. Just when Zhang Hong mistakenly thought that Ku Yang had fallen into Wu Heng's scheme and was attracted by Wang Jian's feint attack army, Ku Yang personally led the main force of Niu Zhu's army to forcibly capture the South City Gate.
This move not only shocked many Taiping Army generals who knew Wu Heng¡¯s plan, but even Wu Jiu, the thousand-man general of the Niuzhu Army, looked surprised and surprised.
You know, as the chess piece responsible for the feint attack to attract the attention of the Taiping Army in the city in the original plan, Wu Jiu had already been mentally prepared to sacrifice for his coach Kuyang. It is precisely because of this that even if there are only a few left in the battle, Ten people, Wu Jiu still stubbornly nailed the open south gate.
It is undeniable that Wu Jiu was really desperate at that time. After all, there were too many guards coming to support near the South City Gate. It's no wonder, considering that even leaving aside the guards and reinforcements on the east, west, and north walls, there are still more than 8,000 soldiers stationed at the south city gate, but those soldiers have changed their defenses to rest.
[Commander]
Quietly staring at the back of his handsome man in front of him, Wu Jiu felt very complicated. He still remembered the majestic scene when Kuyang personally led the army to kill him when he was desperate, and the incredible joy in his heart at that time.
But Wu Jiu also understands that now is not the best time to express loyalty.
"well¡¡"
In front of Wu Jiu, Niuzhu Army Commander Kuyang sighed longly because he saw Wang Liang's body on the tower. The man who informed his Niuzhu Army was killed by Zhang Hong, the general of the rear army. The cousin of the general Wang Jian.
In fact, just when he figured out Wu Heng's real plan and attacked theWhen the target was changed from the West Gate back to the South Gate, he also thought about whether the life of Wang Liang, the general who informed his Niuzhu army, would be threatened.
Because he was Wang Jian's cousin and was kind to his Niu Zhu army, Ku Yang rushed to the south gate, but unfortunately, he was still a step too late. When he captured the South City Gate, Wang Liang was already dead, and even his blood had condensed. According to the surrendered Taiping soldiers, Zhang Hong, the rear army general, killed Wang Liang before leaving and tried to blame him on the Niuzhu Army.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Kuyang sighed secretly in his heart. Sighing that although the Taiping Army claimed to be a benevolent and righteous army that supported the Southern Tang Dynasty, the actions of some generals in the army were contrary to the two words of benevolence and righteousness.
And all this was gradually exposed after the death of Liang Qiuhao, the third generation coach of the Taiping Army.
It seems that as soon as Liang Qiuhao died, the righteousness in the Taiping Army was also exhausted. It is undeniable that Wu Heng is an excellent leader, a scheming hero, and more strategic than the previous coach Liang Qiuhao.
Under the leadership of Wu Heng, the Taiping Army did once have its heyday in counterattacking the Zhou Dynasty. However, behind this light, the dead sheep saw countless cancers one after another.
If it can be said that during the Liang Qiu Hao period, any Taiping soldier was a brother who restored the Southern Tang Dynasty, then after Wu Heng took power, the soldiers at the grassroots level have become pawns for the superiors to achieve brilliant results and can be abandoned at any time.
A woman's benevolence and indecisiveness, in Kuyang's eyes, were the most fatal flaws of the former commander-in-chief of the Taiping Army, Liang Qiuhao, as if that unparalleled hero didn't understand what it means to achieve the goal of one general. So in the end, if Liang Qiuhao could reduce the sacrifice of even one soldier by taking action personally, Liang Qiuhao would never tire of it.
This matter has been criticized by many Taiping Army soldiers, including Ku Yang, but now Ku Yang feels that the Taiping Army really lacks this kind of will. After Liang Qiuhao's death, unity has become empty words, and there are only intrigues among various branches in the army. Even Wei Hu's Jinling Tianquan Army was not immune before.
"Report! - There are numerous supporting troops in the city coming towards our south gate!"
The rushing messenger interrupted Kuyang's thoughts.
"So fast?" The pupils of his eyes shrank slightly, and Kuyang walked a few steps to the city wall, staring down at the incoming enemy forces in the city, which were also former friendly forces.
"The last general will go down to the city to resist!"
Holding his fists, Xu Chang took the initiative to ask for help. After getting Kuyang's permission, he quickly walked down the city wall with his sword in hand. He summoned his Niu Zhu soldiers at the city gate to prepare to resist the upcoming Taiping Army offensive.
Not long after, several supporting troops from the Taiping Army arrived, and even the dead sheep were moved by the sheer strength of the troops.
[what happened? ]
Kuyang squinted his eyes, thinking a lot in his mind.
[Logically speaking, the Taiping troops on the east, west, and north walls should be attracted by Wang Jian Then Zhang Hong followed Wu Heng's plan. If my sheep have no roads, then Zhang Hong will definitely wait. Go down Why can the defenders on the east, west, and north walls of the city come so quickly to support us? Shouldn't they be waiting near the west city gate to surround and kill me? ]
Thinking of this, Kuyang couldn't help but frowned.
At this point, there is only one possibility, and that is that Wu Heng or Zhang Hong has noticed something is wrong and changed their strategy.
"It's so fast. It's obvious that my side only captured the South City Gate"
Looking at the chaotic situation below the city, Kuyang's eyebrows frowned more and more, because he clearly saw the Taiping Army guards from the other three walls rushing towards the south gate like a tide. It was estimated that the number was at least 40,000. There are more than twice as many people as his Niuzhu army.
What¡¯s not good is that in order to defend the South City Gate from being taken away by the Taiping Army, he had to close the defense line to cope with various emergencies. For example, a sudden attack from both sides of the South City Gate wall
"Report! The west side of the city wall is under attack!"
"Report! The east side of the city wall is under attack!"
The messenger who hurriedly came to report the news fully verified Kuyang's foresight.
Ah, the reason why half of the soldiers were sent up the city wall was not to attack the Taiping reinforcements coming from below the city towards the south gate, but more importantly to guard against sudden attacks from the east and west sides of the city wall. After all, the four walls of the city can be said to be interconnected. If sufficient guards are not placed on the walls, once the Taiping Army comes from the east and west walls and captures the wall at the south gate, then the entire Niuzhu Army will be will be at an absolute disadvantage.
Although the current situation is not too optimistic.
[Fifty to sixty thousand troops]Covering his forehead, Kuyang thought hard. By now, he also guessed that Wu Heng must have personally taken over the command of the troops. After all, in his opinion, Zhang Hong was not enough for the various Taiping armies to achieve such a coordinated and seamless operation.
"Is it too late?" Kuyang looked to the west with worry on his face, secretly hoping that the Dongling people could send the latest information to the Zhou army commander Xie An and his generals to ensure that the plan to attack the west city gate could be changed.
"careful!"
With a soft cry, Ku Yang felt himself being pushed. When he looked closely, he saw Ren Jiu standing where he originally stood with his right arm covered. On his right arm, an arrow was still trembling. With.
"Youare you okay?" Kuyang said with lingering fear. If Renjiu hadn't pushed him away in time, maybe Kuyang would have died on this flowing arrow.
"It's okay" Ren Jiu shook his head, glanced at the withered sheep, and said seriously, "Always be vigilant, I can't save you every time"
Kuyang nodded shamefully, then turned to look at the city.
[Have you reached here yet? ]
Kuyang, who was watching the battle intently, realized that Xu Chang, the general in charge of resisting the Taiping reinforcements in the city, had gradually collapsed.
It¡¯s not that Xu Chang lacks ability, it¡¯s just that there are too many reinforcements from the Taiping Army, like a swarm of locusts.
And the more critical reason
Narrowing his eyes, Kuyang stared intently at the bottom of the city. Below the city, he saw a Taiping Army general rushing forward bravely, cursing loudly.
"Listen, sergeants of the Niuzhu Army, Kuyang has rebelled against the commander of the army and wants to seek wealth and wealth by joining the Zhou army. Do you want to follow him?!"
"What? The commander-in-chief rebelled against Wu Heng and wanted to defect to Zhou?"
"Commander Kuyang wants to join the Zhou army?"
"How can it be?!"
The morale of Niuzhu soldiers under the city was greatly turbulent. After all, they had only obeyed the orders of the generals before, but did not know the real facts. Now they heard that their commander Kuyang rebelled against Wu Heng, the fourth commander-in-chief of the Taiping Army, in order to join the Zhou Dynasty. In order to seek wealth and honor for the country, a large number of people feel confused because of this.
[Finally, the worst thing happened]
Kuyang frowned again.
Although he has long known that once the truth about the rebellion of his Niuzhu soldiers is known to him, no matter how much prestige he enjoys in the Niuzhu army, it is not difficult to guess that a large number of soldiers will give up resistance. After all, in many places, In the eyes of many Niuzhu soldiers, they are still Taiping soldiers.
Sure enough, Kuyang's ominous premonition was verified. Amidst the verbal abuses of countless Taiping Army soldiers, the will of Niuzhu's soldiers was shaken. Some of the soldiers put down their weapons under the former's scolding, but most of the soldiers remained Still wavering between the Taiping Army's beliefs and their coach Ku Yang. Although they have not made a choice yet, it is undeniable that their resistance to the Taiping Army has become much weaker.
It is precisely because of this that Xu Chang, a subordinate of Kuyang's subordinates, fell into a bitter battle, because more and more Niuzhu soldiers chose to give up resisting the Taiping Army, which was originally part of the same army, and did not participate in Kuyang's rebellion against Wu Heng and defected to the Zhou army. act.
"CommanderCommander" a thousand-man general advised tremblingly, "Withdraw? The enemythere are too many enemy troops. If we continue to struggle, our army may be completely annihilated here"
"Evacuate? Where to retreat?" Kuyang asked casually, still staring at the chaos in the city.
"We can evacuate outside the city!" The thousand-man general clasped his fists and said anxiously, "The city gate has been opened and the suspension bridge has been lowered. Our army can safely withdraw from Guangling without having to fight with them anymore"
"" Glancing at the thousand-man general, the dead sheep remained silent.
Yes, his Niu Zhu army still has a way to retreat, because the south city gate has now completely fallen into his hands. The city gate has been opened and the suspension bridge has been lowered. As long as he orders the entire army to retreat, the entire army can naturally be avoided. tragedy.
But what happens after this?
The South City Gate will fall into Wu Heng's hands again. Once he closes the city gate and makes it impossible for the Zhou army to enter the city, how long will this fighting last?
Ten days?
The 20th?
January?
March?
And during this period, how many innocent lives will be implicated?
[The so-called military disaster Na! ]
Taking a deep breath, Kuyang looked up at the night sky, and his brother-in-law Xie An's advice echoed in his ears unconsciously.
Yes, Wei Kuang, Wei Hu, Wang Liang
?Perhaps the dead sheep didn¡¯t notice it at first.But when those around him died one after another in the military disaster, he realized the horror of the military disaster.
The withered sheep looked around, looking at the countless corpses above and below the city. Among those corpses were Taiping soldiers and Niuzhu soldiers.
If there had not been this military disaster, would these people have lived well?
Kuyang¡¯s heart was filled with sadness.
He once again realized the correctness of what his brother-in-law Xie An said to him.
[Forgiveness, as long as you can let go of the past hatred, why can't you live? At least you can eat enough for three meals, right? ]
"Ku Yang once thought this sentence was very ridiculous, but now, he feels that this sentence does have its truth.
Taking risks for the sake of livelihood is called tragic; taking risks for the sake of hatred is called sad!
It is obvious that one can survive, as long as he puts aside his past hatred, and can live well under the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After all, the Great Zhou Dynasty is not a corrupt court, and the court is not dominated by treacherous ministers and villains. Why should we do it for The grudges thirty years ago caused Jiangnan to fall into a war disaster again, causing tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of innocent people to be trapped in this quagmire and unable to escape?
Kuyang sighed secretly. Maybe he still felt a little guilty for rebelling against Wu Heng before, but now looking at the corpses on the ground, he desperately hoped that this catastrophe would end soon and that the entire Jiangnan would regain its former stability. and peace.
[The dead return to earth, so what happens to the Taiping Army? ]
Kuyang suddenly remembered what Liu Yan said to himself when he met His Highness Liu Yan, the Thirteenth Prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty a few days ago.
Indeed, the Taiping Army, as a gathering of old friends from the Southern Tang Dynasty who resented the Great Zhou Dynasty, and as a remnant of the old era, should not continue to remain in the world
The passage of time and the change of dynasties are inevitable. Furthermore, is the Southern Tang really as beautiful as the Taiping soldiers rumored?
What you can¡¯t get is the best; because you have it, you don¡¯t care.
[Ah! ] Slowly opening his eyes, Kuyang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Guard! Guard until the Zhou army comes to help! - We must deliver the South City Gate to the Zhou army safe and sound at all costs!"
After saying that, Kuyang picked up his weapon and stepped down from the tower. As the commander of an army, he actually joined the melee in person.
[Let¡¯s end this turmoil that has lasted for more than twenty years]
Kuyang clenched the weapon in his hand, and with one sword he knocked off his horse a Taiping general who was attacking him.
"Commander?"
"Commander the dead sheep?"
Seemingly noticing the appearance of the dead sheep, the morale of Niu Zhug's soldiers who had not defected to the Taiping Army was boosted. On the other hand, the Taiping Army's murderous intent was heightened by the appearance of the dead sheep.
"Here is the withered sheep! Here is the traitor withered sheep!"
"kill¡ª¡ª!"
Countless Taiping soldiers roared and killed Kuyang, because in their view, Kuyang was a traitor and a traitor to their Taiping Army!
Killing, endless fighting
As time went by, Kuyang gradually lost track of how many Taiping soldiers he had killed who were originally friendly forces.
"The city wall has been captured!"
"Listen to the rebels of the Niuzhu army below the city, surrender quickly and wait for Commander Wu to be punished!"
[Has the city wall fallen? Why doesn¡¯t Zhou Jun come? ]
He wielded his sword like an ordinary soldier and fought in the chaos. The dead sheep had no time to take into account the changes on the city wall.
[Ah, thanks to me, the Zhou army¡¯s initial target was the West City Gate. It would take them an hour to change the target of attack and rush from the West City Gate to the South City Gate plus the time for the Dongling people to go back and report the news. ¡]
Killing a warlord general with one sword, Kuyang staggered and almost fell to the ground. It is not difficult to see that his physical strength has been exhausted, but the Taiping Army in front of him seems to be still the same number as before, and has not decreased at all.
¡°The dead sheep traitor shall die!¡±
A Taiping Army general who looked quite strong rode his horse to kill Kuyang. Kuyang recognized this person. It was Chen Tong, the guard of the North City Gate, a fierce general who was said to be able to wield a hundred-jin sword.
"boom!"
The swords struck each other. Although the dead sheep, which already had little physical strength, blocked Chen Tong's swing of the sword, it was actually knocked several feet away.
¡°Commander?!¡±
¡°Commander the dead sheep?!¡±
"careful!"
With a pop, blood splattered everywhere. Ku Yang looked at Ren Jiu with shock on his face as he opened his arms, blocked himself in front of him with his scarred body, and used his shoulders to resist Chen Tong's knife.
 "Ben Jiu!" Kuyang roared. Although the two of them had only been in contact for a few days, how could they be ruthless if they got along day and night? What's more, Ren Jiu saved his life twice.
"Huh? Assassin?" Chen Tong seemed quite surprised that he didn't kill the dead sheep with one knife. When he was stunned, he saw Ren Jiu grit his teeth and turned around, and the short blade in his hand actually pierced Chen Tong's arm.
"You guy" Chen Tong, who was in pain, became furious and punched Ren Jiu's abdomen with his left hand. Ren Jiu spat out a mouthful of blood, and then his body slowly fell down.
Ah, assassins are very strong, especially those from Dongling. However, on the battlefield, a single assassin can actually play a very small role
"Chen Tong!" With a roar, Kuyang slashed at Chen Tong with his sword, mixed with the anger in his heart. But unfortunately, he was already exhausted and had no strength left to wield the sword.
"Qiang!" Easily, the sword in Kuyang's hand was knocked away by Chen Tong.
"What the Six Divine Generals are called the Tianshu Divine General, it's nothing more than that!" Seeing the helpless sheep falling to the ground, Chen Tong licked his lips and chuckled, "If I kill you, I will be the Tianshu Divine General "
As he spoke, he slowly raised the sword in his hand, and then slashed it down hard.
Looking at the sword that was about to cut off his body, even the dead sheep showed a bit of unwillingness and panic in his eyes. Soon, these were replaced by despair.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden sound of rapid horse hooves behind him
"Huh?" As if he had noticed something, Chen Tong raised his head subconsciously, and his expression immediately changed drastically, because he saw a cavalryman approaching quickly on a war horse.
In an instant, the spear in the knight's hand had caught Chen Tong's sword, as if he wanted to save the withered sheep.
[oh? Compete with me for strength? ]
As soon as his thoughts changed, Chen Tong's eyes showed a hint of interest, but then, the calmness on his face was quickly replaced by horror and disbelief.
"Bang!" Under the horrified eyes of countless Taiping soldiers and Niuzhu soldiers, the strong Chen Tong was shot several feet away. Unfortunately, he fell into the middle of the two groups of soldiers who were fighting. It was very shocking. Unfortunately, he was stabbed to death by two soldiers who had no time to react.
Both the Taiping Army and Niuzhu soldiers were shocked. After all, Chen Tong was a brave general. However, facing this general, he seemed to have no room to fight back and was easily knocked away.
What kind of arm strength is this!
"I was talking arrogantly. I thought I was so strong, but it turned out to be nothing more than this" Ignoring the countless shocked looks around him, the general sneered, raised his spear and pointed forward. Countless Zhou army cavalry poured in from the suspension bridge at the city gate. .
[Liao Li? The coming general is Liao Li, the general of the Zhou army! Didn't he fight with former military general Mu Guang outside the city? Why are you here? Could it be saidthat this person has defeated Mu Guang? incredible¡¡]
Kuyang secretly looked at Liao Li, the Zhou general who saved his life not far in front of him, in surprise.
"Zhou JunZhou Jun has entered the city!"
"The Zhou army is coming!"
The Taiping army was suddenly in chaos. On the other hand, Niu Zhu's army on Kuyang's side showed joy as if they had survived. They stepped back one by one to make way for the Zhou army to enter the city.
"I don't know if even the main force of the Taiping Army was not as strong as the Zhou soldiers, or because they were caught off guard by Liao Li. Facing the cavalry swarming into the city, the Taiping Army retreated steadily and collapsed.
Realizing that the balance of the battle was finally tilted towards his side, Kuyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and struggled to stand up.
"After that, leave it to me, General, uncle!"
