C146 (1/2)
Wen Chou was too lazy to bother with him. If anything were to happen to Yan Liang, even if he was alive, how could he have the face to meet his brothers? At that moment, in his eyes, any sort of emperor, any laws, were all bullshit. Besides Yang Lin, he would not care about anyone else.
”Soldiers on the city wall, listen up. The reason we are attacking this time round is because the Lord Taishang has detained our leader. It has nothing to do with you. As long as you do not oppose us, we will not make things difficult for you. ”
The sky gradually darkened. Normally, the people in the Xindu City would prepare dinner. But today, the Youzhou Army had surrounded the capital, causing the citizens of the city to become nervous. They had never imagined that their city would be surrounded by the army. Wasn't this the greatest joke in the world?
Bian Xi and Li Shuang finally met not too far away from the West Gate, but they didn't wait for Bu Yi to enter the city. Both sides informed each other about the number of people. In the end, Bian Xi's five hundred people had all snuck into the city, while Li Shuang's five hundred people had only entered half of the city. Li Shuang could not help but smile bitterly.
”Damn bad luck.”
”Stop complaining, Bu Yi didn't even manage to come in. Now that Wen Chou's army is outside the city, send some people to set the fire. Once the fire is here, we will go and snatch the city gate. ”
”Why do these things always happen to me?”
”Who told you to be unlucky?”
Li Shuang huffed and puffed as he left while Bian Xi led his subordinates to slowly grope their way towards the city gate. At this time, the West Gate was also filled with people, there were countless of officials coming and going, they had brought stones and rolling wood, it seemed like the officials were really prepared to defend the city with all their might.
”Put out the fire, put out the fire …”
Just as Bian Xi and the rest were about to reach the city gate, waves of surprised exclamations came from the city. Bian Xi looked back, and saw that many places had been set ablaze, the bright red flames illuminated the night sky of Xindu City, the entire Xindu City was as bright as day.
”Brothers, kill …”
Bian Xi shouted and took out a blade from his waist. The five hundred men shouted as they took out their knives and rushed to the city gate. Although the sharp knife was a bit small, it was still a sharp knife. At this moment, the city guards were all gathered on the city walls. Who would have thought that a team of soldiers would come from the city?
”Kill …”
In the midst of their panic, the city guards welcomed them. Bian Xi scurried a few steps forward and welcomed one of the Anping army with his blade. The officer had already seen clearly that they were holding short blades, and their confidence had increased by a lot. However, before his broadsword could strike down, a hole had been pierced through his stomach. The steel sword in his hand had also been moved to someone else's hand.
With the steel blade in hand, Bian Xi became even more ferocious, he rushed forward and kicked over a Anping army, raising his leg to slash at the opponent's face, but that fellow was extremely nimble, and rolled on the ground, and actually dodged Bian Xi's blade. Bian Xi turned his hand back and slashed at the fellow's head again, but he reacted very quickly, and used the big blade in his hands to block Bian Xi's blade. The furious Bian Xi kicked him hard in the groin, causing him to scream in pain. Taking advantage of the moment he was using to protect his crotch, Bian Xi's large blade slashed down, and finally cut his head off.
”Dong Dong Dong …”
At this time, Bian Xi heard the door knocking, he knew that Wen Chou's attack had already reached the city gate. He immediately jumped up and brandished his big blade as he rushed towards the city gate. A steel blade slashed left and right, in the blink of an eye, he had hacked down a few Anping army s, and in a short moment, he was right in front of the city gate.
”Open the gates.”
Bian Xi bellowed, a dozen soldiers rushed to the front of the city gate and started to use their sharp blades to smash the gate. However, the bolts were tight enough. The dozen soldiers fought with all their might against the city guards while pounding on the city gates. Even after a long while, they still did not open the gates.
”Seize back the city gates.”
A Anping army general shouted and took the lead to charge forward. He slashed a few Youzhou Army s with his blade and then inserted a wooden bolt. Youzhou Army spent a long time to unlock the wooden cork, and at the same time, a few soldiers rushed up to him, defending the city gates.
”Kill …”
Bian Xi's eyes were blazing with fire, he pointed the blade in his hand forward, released a roar, and fiercely jumped towards the commander. The high-ranking officer raised his blade to block, but unexpectedly, Bian Xi somersaulted in the air, the blade turned, and slashed at the high-ranking officer's waist, causing blood to spurt out, blinding Bian Xi's eyes. Xindu City s who had already rushed to the bottom of the city gate started to flood in like floodwaters. In a short period of time, the city gate seemed to be extremely crowded, and those Anping army s who did not manage to escape in time had nowhere to run to as they were mercilessly stomped on.
”Quick, seize the city wall!”
Bian Xi jumped up and shouted, then led the village men to rush up the city walls. The five hundred elite soldiers under his command took the lead and charged up to the city wall. On both sides of the city gate were paths to the top of the city wall. Bian Xi currently had two large blades in his hands.
The Anping County soldiers who had already lost his will to fight had no more will to fight. Seeing that the city walls were about to fall, not only did he not risk his life to snatch the city gate back, he even retreated. Even those County Officer General no longer possessed the might they once had, and no one dared to go up and tear them apart.
In the blink of an eye, Bian Xi had slaughtered his way to the top of the city walls, forcing the Xin Du soldiers to a place far away from the city walls. Seeing that Anping County soldiers was retreating, he did not pursue him anymore. Raising the big blade in his hand, he stopped the group behind him.
”It's over, it's all over.”
When he saw the flames inside the city that shot to the sky, Wang Ran suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell down on the city walls. Even Wang Ran, who did not know how to fight, could see that this was a fire that the Youzhou Army should have set in the city. If there was a wife in the city, would the city be able to hold on?
”My lord, something bad has happened! There are people attacking the city gates!”
