Five hundred and seventieth chapters Xiongdu (eighteen)
The blood ticked on Xu Le's spear. In front of him, the body of the Eagle Yang soldier was incomplete, and the broken spear and the knife could be seen everywhere. Just as Han Yue led four subordinates to fight with the two Fire Eagle Yang soldiers, there was also a bloody massacre here in the courtyard.
When the Yinshi Army drove the people out of the city and smashed hundreds of thousands of people towards Li Yuan, Xu Le realized that the Li family had encountered a vicious and difficult opponent. He wanted to get such a plan but would never use it. In addition to considering the city's reputation, what is more important is that his conscience does not allow himself to do such a thing that harms the world. In his opinion, whether it is expelling the people or digging the opponent's ancestral graves, it is not the work of a real man. The two armies used their own skills to fight and cut off the heads of the enemy's generals with their own skills. This is the spirit of a hero. What kind of hero can they be used to do these methods?
Those who can do this must be sinister and vicious people, and they will naturally do whatever they want to do. According to the grandfather, these people should be called "poisoners" rather than counselors. It is not a blessing to be friends and enemies with these people, especially if they fight for their own lords and two armies, it is not an exaggeration to be careful.
Although the secret passage of the Chai family is secret, it must be hidden from such people. After all, under the pressure of the two generations of emperors of the Yang family, the power of the aristocratic families is not as strong as before. Moreover, the Chai family itself is not a first-class aristocratic family, and its foundation cannot be compared with those traditional aristocratic families. There were many people in Chang'an City before, and some tricks could be hidden. Now there are tens of thousands of eagle soldiers in the city. As long as the Yinshi Master is determined to search, he will definitely find the secret passage.
Even though the road was unobstructed, Xu Le did not relax. Even when he left the secret passage, he deliberately dispersed thirty people and went out from each exit. Although there were many exits of this secret passage, the only place where the war horses could gallop was the courtyard. Everyone had horses and should have fought all the way from now on. However, Xu Le only arranged for Han Xiaoliu and three sharpshooters who were born in Liang Hait to go out from then on. The others walked in short force and rushed out from other exits in order to avoid being blocked in the exit as a living target.
There are only thirty cavalry in total, and they are divided into several routes. In terms of military tactics, the division of strength is weak, and this arrangement is quite dangerous. If the old generals of the army probably would sneer at this arrangement and believe that this is the way to kill. However, Xu Le had his own plans. The generals of the Xuanjia Cavalry could kill and fight, and they were all heroes with unique skills. Letting them gather together not only underestimate their methods, but also waste manpower.
Scattered out and fought in different ways. Although there are not enough troops in a single route, it can make the opponent tired and difficult to resist. Weak soldiers rely on many people to strengthen their courage, and elite soldiers can fight ten. In this environment, large troops are not easy to expand their formation. The more elite soldiers and brave generals disperse, the more they are, the more conducive they can use their means.
Facts proved that Xu Le's defense was extremely necessary. As soon as the mount came out of the secret passage, the ambush came from all directions. Just as Wu Kui and others were ambushing Han Yue, a fire officer and soldier held spears and rushed from all over the place. At the same time, dozens of shooting soldiers were shooting from the top of the wall and on the roof!
Compared with Han Yue, Xu Le's situation was even more critical. Even if a general like Hou Junji was not prepared for such an ambush, he would have to retreat in a mess, and his body would be injured. However, Xu Le had been guarding against ambushing soldiers for a long time, and his six senses were even more sensitive. Jin Feng was already aware of it. The horse spear in his hand danced up and down like a windmill, and the cluster of carved feathered arrows was pirated everywhere. The spear was even more agitated and the sound of bow strings behind him rang one after another. Han Xiaoliu and three Liang Haiti archers had already opened their bows and shot arrows to counterattack the shooters.
Xu Le said: "Sin Shi Master knew that we had killed Yu Juluo, he would never take us lightly. This number of people is just an ambush, so there must be other killing moves. In my opinion, this killing move is coming..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a sound of arrows outside the courtyard wall sounding, hundreds of fire arrows flew over the wall and flew towards the courtyard. These flame elves swayed and danced in the night sky, drawing arcs of varying heights. The shooter had been ambushed outside the courtyard at some point, but he never rushed to support him. He only waited for the robes in the courtyard to be mostly broken and then fired arrows. Such forbearance is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Only the commander of Yinshi Master can bring out such soldiers.
Even though these shooters use strong bows in the arsenal, there is no accurate point in shooting arrows across the wall, and it is quite difficult to hurt people. These Xuanjia generals are heroes with extraordinary means. They only need to wield weapons to call and will not be injured by arrows. However, the arrowheads are not about hurting people, but only arson. Most of the arrows are knocked to the ground or landing, and they will not have any effect. When rows of fire arrows are shot in, there will always be arrows falling on the roof, the foot of the hall, the window lattice, the door panels, etc. I don’t know how many times these places have been watered with fish oil. As soon as the arrows fall, fire will rise.
Han Yue frowned and said, "These rats still want to set fires? Let's go quickly and see if this fire can catch up with us!"
Xu Le said: "It won't be that easy, I'm afraid the real killing move in this courtyard is not an ambush..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a muffled sound came from behind him just like the firecrackers set off when he was about to stay up to the New Year. Then there were a series of sounds of firecrackers. The room where Han Yue and others were fighting just now rose and turned into a huge torch. The raging fire burned, and the burning feeling came to his face. The generals near the house were burning.
"Cupper?" Li Bao had seen this thing more than once in Jinyang, so he was the first to react. He knew that this thing would never be used alone. If a large number of cups were placed in the yard, everyone's situation would be bad! Xu Legao shouted: "Everyone follow me!" Then he took the lead and rushed to the front of the team. Behind everyone, beside everyone, the cups had exploded one after another...
Outside the courtyard, the generals of the army led the army to block the stones at the front and back doors with satisfaction. He was the nephew of the Yinshi Division, and this team of troops was also a personal soldier of the Yinshi Division. When the bang sounded in the courtyard, it was known that the elite soldiers of Jinyang came from the secret passage in the city. The orders he received from the army and horses along the way were to not care about the outcome of the battle in the courtyard. As long as the shouts of killing stopped, they would shoot the fire arrows into the courtyard, and then fill the front and back doors to death to ensure that no one inside could escape. As for who was burned to death, the Yinshi Division did not care, and they did not care.
Of course, the Jinyang soldiers can escape from secret passages, but this is not important to the defenders. As long as they cannot take Chang'an, the Jinyang soldiers will die. At best, they will die sooner or later, and living for two more days is useless.
Seeing the flames bursting in the air, the generals slid their heads and raised their right hand to gather. The team of shooters gathered their crossbows and lined up behind the generals. Just when they wanted to turn around and leave, they heard muffled sounds coming from the wall. The night was silent, and the sound of hitting the wall was particularly clear. The generals' eyes fell towards the wall. The wall was swaying slightly with the impact sound, and the shattered loess fell down.
"Come!" He just shouted the military order, but heard a loud "boom" sound, half of the wall collapsed, and rammed earth flew out of the crowd, making it difficult to see. With a horse's neigh, the dragon-swalking horse jumped out of the collapsed place and landed heavily in front of the general who led the army. Without being able to shout or resist, Xu Le's horse spear hit the horse in his hand, and had already knocked the general off his horse.
