Chapter 94 Snowy Night, Bloody Night Continued

The strange sparks blooming in the sky above the south of the city ignited hope. The signal represents that the Zhou army arrived as promised, so he has not lost yet. Looking at the dark imperial guards in front of him, he directed his troops to continue fighting on the streets.

The imperial guards besieged the mansion were defeated by him from behind, but more imperial guards also came from everywhere. Yang Jian's actions were even more decisive than expected. If he hadn't been prepared, he would have been unable to withstand it.

The troops were killed and injured by a large number of enemies, but these were his most reliable elites and would not be defeated so quickly. Just hold on for a while, and then hold on for a while!

Ten years ago, the Zhou Kingdom attacked Qi, and Liang Shiyan led his army to defend Jinzhou. He was led by the Qi army to besiege the city. After the Qi army attacked day and night, the city wall collapsed. The city was on the verge of loss several times, but in the end he was defended and waited for reinforcements.

Eight years ago, as the southeast roadmap, Liang Shiyan, the general in charge of Xuzhou, guarded Luliang to resist the Northern Expedition Army of Chen State. Wu Mingche, a famous general of the Southern Dynasty, led his army to siege the city. The outer city was captured. Liang Shiyan defended the inner city to death. Finally, he finally waited for reinforcements.

Defeat Chen Jun and capture Wu Mingche alive.

The past is vivid in my mind. I was able to survive until now because of my perseverance. So he would not give up. Even if he was surrounded by the imperial guards, he did not give up hope. What's more, the more imperial guards he attracted here, the less pressure elsewhere, and the greater the chance of success.

It’s not just me and Liu P who are going to get up tonight!

A whistling sound came, and light rose above the east direction of the city, and then sparks burst out in the air. It seemed that there was movement in the suburbs of the east side of the city. Seeing this, the imperial guards besieged Liang Shiyan knew something was wrong, and the attack became stronger and stronger.

Li Yuantong, who was covered in blood, despite being injured by arrows on many parts of his body, commanded the imperial guards to attack Liang Shiyan. The situation was worse than he imagined. Not only did the other party prepare, but there were more than one person in the city.

The sparks blooming in the south and east of the city made him anxious. This must have been the way to tell the city that it was reported by Zhou's army in this way after arriving outside the city. Although he did not understand what the spark meant, he knew that it would be a bad situation if it dragged on.

"You guys, hurry back to the palace immediately and report on the battle here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, many people rushed over at the intersection on the other side of the street. Li Yuantong initially thought it was an imperial guard for reinforcements, but then found that it was not his own. What shocked him even more was that he looked at the beating fire, and the other party was wearing black military uniforms.

It was Zhou Jun! How did they enter the city? Come from the south... Could it be that the city gate is open?

"The city gate has been opened, and the Great Zhou King's Army has entered the city. You and others will not surrender quickly!"

"All nonsense must be Liang Ni's party pretending to be Zhou's army!"

Li Yuantong estimated the strength of the enemy and us, and the number of people was about equal, so the outcome was unknown. We must not shake the morale of the army. Just as we were about to command the imperial guards to fight to the death, many people rushed towards the intersection.

Although most of these people were civilians, they were all carrying weapons and dared to come out after the curfew. Li Yuantong judged that he was a member of Liang Shiyan, but the leader was his acquaintance.

The general, Yuan Xie, the Le'an County, had already met Yang Jian in his early years and was a classmate of the Imperial College. After the founding of the New Dynasty, he made many military achievements and was called "Shuijian Wall".

Because Yuan Xie was stubborn and had a strong relationship with his colleagues, and did not form a party for personal gain, the emperor called him a wall between the flood, and sooner or later he would be excluded, and then he was excluded and lost his official position and was unemployed at home.

Someone reported that Yuan Xie and his clan brother Shangkaifu Yuan Pang rebelled. Later, the department found out that there was no evidence, but soon Yuan Pang committed suicide, and Yuan Xie stayed behind closed doors ever since.

So at this time, you will lead your servants out and help when you see the imperial guards are in great power. When you see the rebels, do you feel rebellious?

“Le'an Gong,

Have you figured it out?"

Liang Shiyan shouted loudly, Yuan Xie looked at Li Yuantong in the imperial guards on the left, and then looked at the suspected Zhou army in black military uniforms on the right, and smiled helplessly: "Your Majesty... Since you are suspicious of Yuan and think that Yuan is a repetitive villain, then Yuan will be a repetitive villain!"

"Repeated villain!"

Li Yuantong was furious, and the Zhou army was just approaching Chang'an, and the city was filled with slag. He hated His Majesty for not making up his mind earlier and eradicating all these villains.

He pulled off the puff, and Li Yuantong shouted loudly: "We will be blessed by Your Majesty and fight to the death for the country today!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he led the way to Yuanxie. The soldiers of the Imperial Army were moved by their shouts and rushed towards the enemy attacking from the front and back. The bloody battle started again, dyeing the snow-covered streets red.

......

In the south of the city, the Zhou army vanguard who entered the city from the tunnel, except for one of them to reinforce Duke J, the rest attacked the eastern city gate. There were three east gates of Chang'an, and the central main gate was their target.

Qingmen, the Qingming Gate in Chang'an, Han Dynasty, was renovated nearly ten years ago in the sixth year of Jiande, but the city gate collapsed for no reason. The shape is still the same, and there are three ways, and these three ways have now been blocked.

The door opening was filled with carts, full of stones, and there were many door-sticking knives behind it. Even if the city gate was broken from outside, it would take a lot of time to push open the car to clear the barriers. The city gate defenders piled up many bricks and stones on the street as obstacles.

Not only Qingmen, but also the two east gates on the left and right sides were blocked. What they were guarding was that insiders attacked the defenders and opened the door to the city. After all, if the Zhou army broke through Lantian, they would definitely go through the official road and cross the Ba Bridge to the east of Chang'an City. So in order to prevent any mistakes, they would just block the matter.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Bing did not retreat and braved the rain of arrows to greet him. They came to attack the city. If the opponent's defense was loose, there would be a problem.

The first row was shielded, and the second row took out the small sky-bombing thunder he carried with him, ignited the fuse with a torch and threw it forward. Amid the continuous explosions, the defenders were blown away. Before they could come back to their senses, the Zhou army had already rushed forward to start a hand-to-hand combat.

The defenders at Qingmen were about to shoot arrows from a high place, but they heard the noise outside the city. When they turned around, they saw that there seemed to be movement in the snow under the night. The sparkling fire in the direction of Ba Bridge in the distance reflected a large black shadow.

"It's Zhou Jun coming!!"

The city was panicked, but the general was quickly suppressed by the supervisor: "What are they afraid of? What are they going to attack the city! Defend the city gate, the Zhou army can only blow cold wind outside!"

"As soon as reinforcements arrive tomorrow, they will be finished! Beat the drum to warn you!!"

Sure enough, the galloping Zhou cavalry saw the city gate closed and turned to the two sides to divert the flow. Just when the Qingmen defenders thought the other party was retreating, they saw several carriages rushing over.

The cavalry dismounted and used horses as cover to shoot against the defenders on the city. The carriages came to the city gate and pushed them into the door hole. The guards knew something was wrong and thought it was probably a method of siege to thunder.

"Stop them, stop them!!"

The situation was urgent, with gold and iron juice not having time to boil, and the rolling wood and stones could not gather for a while. While shooting arrows, the defenders hung long ropes from the top of the city and sent out war-torn men to guard the city gate.

Amid the drums, the two sides fought outside the Qingmen. Many Zhou soldiers were caught in arrows and fell to the ground. More people rushed to push the carriage into the door opening. Seeing more and more Sui soldiers sliding down the city wall, a Zhou army did not care about evacuating with their companions and ignited the fuse.

The loud noises rang one after another. After the flames flashed, there was no one in the smoke. The Qingmen was seriously damaged and the city gate tower collapsed. However, even though the city gate was blown up, there were mountainous obstacles behind the door, forming a steep slope with the bricks and stones of the city gate.

The Zhou army sprinted along the ramp and fought fiercely with the Sui army guarding the goal.
