My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 237 The battle of the imperial city, heavy cavalry versus heavy footwork
The war-torn Xuanchun Gate was broken, and the fighting spread to the city. A large number of Yan soldiers and horses cleared every part of the city, and charged at the assembled Wei soldiers. The formations were pushed away, and the soldiers fled in all directions.

As someone who had participated in the defense of the city, Li Jin was lucky enough to return to the city alive. He and other comrades were struggling to avoid the pursuing Yan soldiers. They kept their heads down or jumped left and right to avoid the incoming arrows. When they turned a corner, they encountered He climbed over a low wall and hid behind it, breathing heavily.

There were wet marks in his eyes. He was sure that when he jumped off the wall, the three comrades around him were shot to death. He bit his lips and did not dare to make a sound. His head was covered with sweat due to weakness and pain. My hands kept shaking.

His palms were dripping with blood, because he was holding a knife and fighting with an opponent's captain. The weapon was blown away, and most of the skin was worn away. In some places, flesh could be seen.He gritted his teeth, tore off a piece of cloth from his military uniform, and wrapped his right hand around it. The moment he tightened it, he groaned.

His body couldn't stop trembling.

He hid for a while, and the sound of chasing footsteps had faded away. Li Jin shakily stood up against the wall, and stumbled toward the back door from the backyard of this house.

Hearing the commotion, the man of the house came out with a pole and a hatchet. When he saw him, the man of the house chased him away vigilantly: "Go away quickly, don't hurt us!"

Li Jin was stunned for a moment and laughed silently. He did not embarrass the family. He opened the door and rushed out. He walked staggeringly in the alley. Thinking of his comrades who died in the battle, he cried as he walked.

At this moment, he suddenly wanted to be killed by Yan Jun and did not want to resist.

Boom boom boom...

Heavy footsteps sounded outside the alley. He raised his face and walked out quickly, throwing the knife in his hand to the ground. When he came to the entrance of the alley, the scene of the long street came into view, which stunned him.

It was an army with neat armor and rusty metal, carrying long soldiers on their shoulders, and the top of the weapons were only fist-sized iron bones, marching along the long street in a mighty manner.

"This is Zhao Guangshi... the old general's Yijie Army... they... they also surrendered... Hahaha... The Wei Kingdom is over... The old general was killed by you, a foolish king... Your Wei Kingdom is over..."

He rushed towards the street, wanting to question the silent soldiers and horses. However, the moment he rushed out of the alley, he was thrown to the ground by several Youyan soldiers who were searching.

"Hahaha... the country is dead... the country is dead..."

Li Jin was pressed to the ground and still laughed with his mouth open, his face flushed with shock. In his slanted sight, the army stretched straight to the imperial city like a long dragon.

……

At the Zhengyang Gate of the Imperial City, the sounds of fighting on the towers rang out sporadically. Soldiers and horses from the trapped camp and Yizhou ran up and down the stone steps and along the city wall, chasing down the retreating Wei soldiers who were guarding the imperial city.

Zhang Liao stood in front of the Zhengyang Gate holding a hook and sickle, staring at the black cavalry at the end of the palace road. He did not expect that such a cavalry force in the Wei State would be placed in the palace road to suppress the formation.

"Ha... If before the attack on the city, the Emperor of Wei had released this cavalry from the east and west gates to bypass our army's retreat, it would definitely be impossible to break the city as easily as it is now!"

He stroked the mane of the war horse and shook his head with a sigh: "An emperor who has never fought in a war... is not even as good as Sun Zhongmou."

While thinking about it, there was the sound of horse hoofbeats behind him, and Zhang Liao turned his horse to the side. It was Li Jue, who was stained with blood and minced meat, dragging a big gun and galloping towards him. He didn't care about the stains on his body at all. He smiled and bowed at Zhang Liao. Hand over.

The two of them had met Lu Bu, an old general who they had met before in Luoyang and Chang'an. However, Li Jue's status was quite high at that time and he looked down upon Zhang Liao.

Now that I have come to see Fang Shidao again, I have heard from other people that the other party broke through eight hundred thousand and then defeated the entire Wuhuan tribe. His heart is actually complicated. When it comes to using troops, he is not weak. In his spare time, his mind You will think, if you had some sense, didn't mess around with Guo Aduo, and didn't believe in witchcraft, maybe you would have had another way out?
Will there be another record in the history books in the future?
Later I thought, if that were the case, how could I ever start over again?

Random thoughts flashed through his mind. He rushed to Zhang Liao's side, glanced at the end of the palace road in the imperial city, and frowned slightly.

"So many heavy cavalry... It's not enough for my Flying Bear Army and the two hundred tiger cavalry in Xia Houyuan's hand to fill them in."

"The news has been sent back, and King Xia should think of a solution!"

boom!
boom!
Just as the two were talking, heavy footsteps suddenly sounded behind them. Zhang Liao turned his horse's head and Li Jue turned his head to look over, showing a solemn expression. In his field of vision, a torrent of black iron armor strode forward carrying a long-handled bone. Come on, the leading general got off his horse and bowed his hands to the two of them.

"Meng Tuo has seen two generals, and on the order of the king, they came to clear the palace roads!"

"Please!"

Zhang Liao and Li Jue urged their horses back to give way to the Zhengyang Gate. They watched Meng Tuo carrying a big ax walk straight into the avenue of the imperial city. The armored men behind him followed closely and entered the palace road without any hesitation. It extends in five rows, forming a large black python.

Then, the long-handled iron bones in their hands hit the ground, and there was a crashing sound of gold and iron on the ground.

As for the Xiong Ben cavalry in front, General Zhao Wu looked at the heavy step on the opposite side with a serious look on his face. He slowly raised his hand, and the cavalry beside him blew the horn.

The heavy cavalry in front pulled down their iron masks and moved their horses. The cavalry following closely behind also pulled down their masks one by one. Countless iron hooves stepped out on the hard palace road, making "tapping, tapping..." horse hooves. Voice.There were no words or inspiring shouts. Everything was quiet and gradually became restless.

The sound of countless crisp horse hooves gradually became more and more intensive. As the slow-moving horses began to accelerate, the sound of horse hooves suddenly turned into the roar of thousands of horses galloping.

Under the noon sun, densely packed heavy cavalry advanced along the palace road like a surging tide. Three thousand cavalry were in front, launching a deadly charge towards the opposite side.

Here, the Rebel Army tightened their formation, squeezing their bodies together, and following Meng Tuo's scream, the first two rows set up iron shields.The soldier at the back stretched out his iron bones.

Heavy cavalry versus heavy steps, no arrows were shot from either side.

Facing the iron wall-like array, the running Xiong Ben Heavy Cavalry did not slow down. The next moment, huge waves were set off and crashed onto the cliffs on the seaside.

It was such a loud bang that Zhang Liao and Li Jue outside Zhengyang Gate, as well as Gao Shun and Niu Gai who were fighting and running on the city tower, instinctively stopped and looked down the city.

One after another, the armored heavy cavalry hit the iron wall, smashing the iron shields into pieces, or pushing the iron shields, the soldiers behind the shields, and the comrades behind the soldiers back, until they could no longer push them within a few steps. However, the horses and people in the middle were instantly squeezed to death by the huge impact.

More heavy riders came over. They stepped on the corpses on the ground and continued to charge forward. The sound of the collision was endless. The heavy riders who were forced to stop their speed threw their spears, then drew their swords and slashed downwards to greet them. They were wielding countless long-handled iron bones and smashed them hard on the armor of the war horses or knights. The dented iron sheets squeezed the flesh and blood inside. Under the frantic beating, both the man and the war horse screamed and fell.

The originally spacious palace road became unbearably narrow amid the fighting and fighting between more than 2 people on both sides. The bear-running knight got off his horse, picked up the weapon on the ground and rushed towards the front line. However, the long weapon in his hand stabbed the heavy armor on the opposite side. It failed, leaving scratches, and the iron bone flower swung from the opposite side hit the heavy iron armor, vibrating the chest, and directly killed the person on the front line.

The charging horses continued to fall, and the long column of the Rebel Army continued to shorten. By the time Xiong Ben's three thousand heavy cavalry had collided, there were more than 2000 Rebel Army soldiers left, standing on the thick ground with the opponent's cavalry. There was a thick layer of corpses, scattered and fighting on the palace roads.

"It's our turn!"

Zhang Liao raised his hand to integrate the two thousand soldiers behind him, and rushed towards the remaining heavy cavalry in the palace road. Zhang Liao rode for a while, stopped halfway, and looked at Meng Tuo under the wall next to him, holding a big ax, with blood all over his body and sweat on his face. , "You're fine. Next, you guys will guard this place!"

He swung his hook and sickle, and together with Li Jue who was coming, they headed forward.

Fight with the remaining Xiong Ben Qingqi in the palace roads and squares, and start fighting!
……

In the countryside west of the city, cavalry roared forward.

A cavalry team that was galloping towards the northwest was intercepted by the roaring cavalry and asked to dismount and surrender. However, the cavalry team did not say anything and fired a wave of arrows at the Yan cavalry, turned around and ran away. .

In the direction they were running, above a gentle slope, there was a figure with a long golden crown and an armored figure with an animal face and a swallowing head, riding a red war horse, holding a painted halberd and looking at them with disdain.

"Dare to resist..."

Lu Bu thrust his halberd into the ground, turned his bow and nocked an arrow, looked at the cavalry preparing to circle, and aimed at a figure in luxurious robes.

The strings vibrated.

The feathered arrow turned into a black shadow and shot out with a whooshing sound.

next second.

In the running cavalry, the figure fell off the horse and fell to the ground.

"Go over and take the body away!"

Lu Bu didn't know who it was, so he just took it back. After giving the order, he put his long bow back into his pouch and rode towards the west gate of Luyang.

"At this time...Wen Yuan should have invaded the imperial city."

He thought as he looked at the outline of the city in the distance.

Soon, the string-controlled wolf cavalry gathered together, killed the Wei soldiers scattered at the city gate, rushed into the streets, and then headed towards the imperial city.
