Chapter 62 The surprise attack on Aocang (2)
In Aocang City, Xiang Zhuang was taking Gongsun and wandering around the military camp.
The entire Ao Cang City's garrison was tight on the outside and loose on the inside. The Ao Cang defenders were still very strict in defense against the hungry people gathered at the foot of Ao Mountain, but the guards in the city were relatively relaxed. Xiangzhuang and Gongsun Sui, two new arrivals, were openly wandering around the military camp, and no one came up to ask or stop it for a long time.
Xiangzhuang didn't know that because Chen Xi liked to raise soldiers, strange people often came and went in and out of the military camp. The soldiers in the camp had actually been used to this for a long time. Moreover, Xiangzhuang, Gongsun Sui and others were led into the city by Hou Chang, and Hou Chang was the most famous among Chen Xi's disciples. Who dared to make trouble for himself to offend Hou Chang?
At this moment, Xiang Zhuang had roughly figured out the details of Ao Cang's defenders.
There were about 3,000 soldiers stationed in the military camp next to the city gate, but most of them were old, weak and disabled soldiers, with poor combat effectiveness. Only the hundreds of people living in the same row of barracks with them were mostly wearing cloth clothes and robes, and most of them were disciples and heroes raised by Chen Xi. There were many cruel characters among them, which should not be underestimated!
After walking for a long time, when Xiangzhuang was about to return to the barracks, a continuous sound of horns suddenly sounded outside!
Almost as the trumpet sounded, there were bursts of shouts outside the city. Hearing this momentum, it seemed that thousands of troops were coming towards Aocang City!
Xiang Zhuang suddenly looked tight. Hearing this momentum, could he have climbed the camp first?
It seems that most emergencies have occurred outside, which is normal. Plans will never keep up with changes!
Gongsun Sui's face changed drastically, and he drew out his sword. The fifty first-row dead soldiers left in the barracks also rushed out loudly. They were all fucking sharp wooden sticks, long or short, and a few were fucking wooden boards. They all took off the shelf bed in a hurry.
Almost at the same time, hundreds of visitors have also flocked out.
When I looked back, there was already a mess on the city not far away!
"What are you still standing there?" A young man in a dress with a sword in his hand shouted at Xiang Zhuang and others, "Why don't you hurry up and help defend the city?"
"Let's go!" Xiang Zhuang replied loudly, "Assist in defending the city!"
After saying that, Xiang Zhuang turned around and left. More than fifty dead soldiers first followed him. He left the barracks and walked straight to the Aocang City Gate dozens of steps away. In the corridor of the city gate, more than a dozen old soldiers were busy closing the city gate and holding the door. Xiang Zhuang turned around and winked at Gongsun Sui and the fifty dead soldiers first, and then turned around and shouted: "Several old soldiers, let's rest, let's come!"
While speaking, Xiangzhuang had already rushed to the city gate with more than fifty death soldiers first.
Of course, Xiang Zhuang was not here to help. He was planning to kill people and seize the door. Just as Xiang Zhuang was about to rush into the city gate corridor, a loud voice suddenly came from the top of his head: "You guys, open the city gate quickly, hurry up!"
When Xiang Zhuang looked up quickly, he saw Hou Chang running down from the city, shouting: "Blacksmith? Hurry up, take your fellow villager to open the city gate and pick up the adults into the city, hurry!"
"No!" Xiang Zhuang was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately rushed into the city gate with more than fifty death soldiers.
More than a dozen old soldiers were old and weak, and were squeezed to both sides of the corridor. Several old soldiers even had their swords on their waists snatched away by the dead soldiers in the first place. Gongsun Sui even took several dead soldiers to the front. The few of them exerted force at the same time, and moved the door bolt that weighed more than a thousand pounds in two strokes. The next moment, the heavy city gate opened quackly.
When Xiangzhuang looked out through the open city gate, he saw that the foot of Ao Mountain was already full of burning sky!
Tens of thousands of hungry people shouted and had completely exploded. Near the edge of Aocang City, the fifteen and sixteen horses were struggling to rush forward in the crowd. The cavalry team desperately waved the sword in their hands and tried hard to kill the hungry people blocking the way. However, there were too many frightened hungry people, and it was difficult to kill them all at once. Therefore, the speed of this group of people was very slow.
This team of men is naturally Chen Xi and his disciples. If it weren't for the disciple Man Qiuchen who was vigilant enough, they would have discovered danger when they were still far apart. He and more than 20 disciples would have been surrounded and killed by the rebel archers and sword shields. However, even so, they were still shot and killed by a rebel archers!
The figure of the first-row death warrior could be seen in the surging crowds, but the first-row death warrior's actions were also severely hindered by the crowds. Many first-row death warriors had discovered that the cavalry team in the sea of people were trying hard to squeeze forward, trying to intercept the cavalry team, but it was difficult to squeeze in for a while.
In the distance, two thousand red-robed and black-armored martial soldiers rushed over like a tide.
Nearby, the Han army guarding outside the gate of Aocang City had already exposed its hideous fangs. Under the command of a small school, they killed the hungry people who were rushing in front of them regardless of their fate. In addition, another small school led dozens of brave soldiers to fight into the chaotic sea of people, trying to meet Chen Xi and his disciples.
These things are long, but in fact they are only a blink of an eye.
The Han army soldiers who entered the crowd quickly responded to Chen Xi and his disciples, and then formed a stream of people along the uphill road and headed straight towards Aocang City Gate. Xiangzhuang saw it clearly. The leader was about forty years old and looked really handsome. Although he was a little embarrassed at this time, he still had a charming style in his behavior. It must be Chen Xi.
However, at this time, the five hundred first-row dead soldiers finally dispersed the crowd. Then the Hedgehog Group bit the butt of the Han army and chased after him. A small Han army school led more than fifty old soldiers back and intercepted them. In just a short time, the more than fifty old soldiers were killed by the first-row dead soldiers. How could the only old and weak, sick and disabled enemy be the enemy of the first-row dead soldiers?
However, with this moment of obstacle, the Han army in front finally got rid of the pursuit of the first-row death warrior.
Chen Xi rushed through the city gate corridor with more than ten sects like a wind storm. Before he could get off his horse, he shouted: "Close the city gate, close the city gate quickly, everyone goes to the top of the city, prepare to face the enemy, prepare to face the enemy..."
Immediately following more than ten disciples, more than fifty Han soldiers also flocked in.
Finally, the person who rushed into the city gate was Chen Xi's disciple Wang Huang. As soon as this guy entered the city gate, he immediately roared at Xiang Zhuang and others who were guarding both sides of the corridor: "Why are you still standing there? Close the city gate, and close the city gate quickly!"
"No!" Xiang Zhuang agreed with the promise, and then took advantage of Wang Huang's turn and slashed his vest.
The sharp blade suddenly pierced through Wang Huang's vest and then through his chest. Wang Huang's powerful body trembled, and the big step he had just taken suddenly stopped. He lowered his head with some difficulty, but saw a long blade that was leaking from his chest. A few drops of red blood beads slowly slid down on the cold blade.
Almost as Xiang Zhuang took action, Gongsun Sui and more than 50 death-crossing soldiers rushed towards the Han army soldiers who had just stepped into the city gate corridor like hungry. The 50 Han army soldiers were killed and were suddenly killed. At least more than 40 were slapped in the back of the head and collapsed to the ground. The remaining few were also stabbed to death by the scattered swords!
In less than a moment, Wang Huang and the fifty Han soldiers were already corpses on the spot!
Seeing this amazing scene, more than a dozen old soldiers who had been squeezed into the city gate corridor suddenly fled in scattered, and while running, they shouted in panic: "Oh no, the spy has entered the city, the spy has sneaked into the city..."
Chen Xi, who had just turned over and dismounted and was about to climb the city to supervise the battle, turned around and saw the sound. After seeing the situation in the city gate corridor, his eyes almost fainted! Hou Chang, who was following Chen Xi, was so shocked that his eyes were straightened. He never expected that the fifty blacksmiths who had advocated to recruit into the city for the adults were actually rebel spies!
However, although Chen Xi was surprised, he did not lose his room. He immediately drew out his sword, looked around at more than ten guests behind him, and shouted loudly: "All the heroes, it's time to show your courage! Who can help me take back the city gate and reward ten thousand yuan! Who can help me fight back the rebels, defend Ao Cang, reward ten thousand yuan!"
As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under heavy rewards. As soon as Chen Xi finished speaking, more than ten visitors were already showing their eyes and screaming and rushed towards the city gate corridor. On the top of the city, more visitors were flocking down, and even a few older soldiers rushed into the corridor with long spears and fearlessness. I really don’t know how the word death is written.
Inside the city gate corridor, Xiang Zhuang quietly retreated. Outside the city gate, five hundred dead soldiers had already swarmed up with arrows. Under Aoshan, two thousand military soldiers were already storming like a tide. It was impossible for the three thousand old and weak soldiers in Aocang City and the hundreds of Chen Xi's disciples to stop the Chu army's troops!
The overall situation has been decided, and Xiangzhuang no longer needs to lead by leading the way to motivate morale.
Gongsun Sui stepped forward with a sword and shouted: "The Sima Gongsun Sui of the Great Chu is here, who dares to come up to die?"
One of Chen Xi's disciples did not sound, and then slashed at Gongsun Sui. Gongsun Sui did not dodge or avoid it. He took a step forward and then slashed the sword horizontally. The thick and sharp blade instantly cut the air, making a sharp roar, and then slashed towards the guest's neck like lightning. The guest's color changed and quickly pulled back.
Gongsun Sui smiled, "You dare not use your life to win your life, you have lost before the battle!"
In an instant, Gongsun Sui's sword slash suddenly stopped and stabbed the guest's throat like lightning.
The guest was still retreating and did not make any new dodging moves, so he was stabbed into the throat by Gongsun Sui. The guest came in a fierce manner, but it was not the enemy of Gongsun Sui! The guest's martial arts might be very good, but he learned martial arts to fight and win, while Gongsun Sui learned the art of gaining life, and was only to kill people in battle formations!
In an instant, more than a dozen sects who rushed in front had already swarmed in. Gongsun Sui naturally could not stop so many killers. He immediately stepped back and hid in the group of dead soldiers. The 50 first sected dead soldiers had already formed a formation, with ten people in a row, five rows in front and behind, and guarded the city gate corridor. Chen Xi's disciples sacrificed their life to rush, but the first sected dead soldiers remained unmoved! #######################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################
