Chapter 3886 The critical battle situation
Everyone in Guanlong has enough knowledge of the crisis of the current situation. Everyone knows that if they cannot capture Taiji Palace, they will not only face the backlash from the Sixth Army of the East Palace and the Youtun Guards, but they will also have to withstand Li Ji's hundreds of thousands of troops. A devastating blow to Chang'an.
Since ancient times, there has been a road in Huashan. When everyone is able to fight against the odds, this group of noble disciples who have been in Longguan for more than a hundred years will naturally be able to unleash a tyrannical fighting power that far exceeds usual.
Everyone was lucky, and no one was trying to fish in troubled waters. Countless Long disciples finally showed up at the last moment in the battle that was about the survival of the sect and the life and death of their wives and children. Chengtianmen launched a fierce attack on the front line.
All the soldiers braved the arrows at the top of the city. When the comrade in front of them fell, they stepped on his body and continued to charge. The robe beside them fell down without even looking at it. Everyone had red eyes and launched a wave of waves without fear of death. Waves of offensive, the solid walls of Tai Chi Palace were like rocks under the stormy waves, trembling and crumbling under the impact of blood and fire.
……
The Sixth Army of the East Palace was also furious. Although they had been trapped in the Taiji Palace for half a year, the number of soldiers was severely reduced, and countless ordnances were damaged. In particular, the whole army was under unparalleled psychological pressure. They were all dismantled one by one, and it took a third of the battle damage to hold on to this day. Who is willing to be broken through the defense line and fall short?
Countless soldiers stood on top of the city and fought bloody battles. The rebels climbed up the ladder to the top of the city again and again, but were repelled again and again. Blood flowed and pooled on the dilapidated city head, and corpses were piled on top of each other. Nowhere to stay.
Every battlefield was spattered with blood and flesh. When the heavy rain stopped suddenly, the brutal war suddenly became intense. The two sides fought repeatedly around every city wall and every city brick.
Among them, the one with the greatest pressure is naturally the front line of Chengtianmen.
Twice, they lured the enemy deep and laid gunpowder in advance to severely damage the enemy. However, at the same time, the city wall near Chengtianmen was also seriously damaged. Although the entire army worked tirelessly to strengthen the city wall during the storm, the temporary blue bricks could not be piled up. The use of cement for bonding is only superficial and cannot fully play the role of defensive fortifications.
The rebels were obviously aware of this. When Changsun Wuji dragged his sick body back to supervise the battle, he immediately used Chengtianmen as the main attack point. Under his command, countless Guanlong troops launched a tidal wave of attacks on Chengtianmen. The surging momentum rose higher and higher, vowing to level Chengtianmen. Not only to avenge Changsun Wen who died here, but also to use this as a breakthrough point to break into Taiji Palace and completely crush the defense of Liuli in the East Palace. .
Cheng Chubi sat under the Chengtian Gate and commanded his soldiers to fight bloody battles. However, the rebels had sufficient fighting strength. Round by round, the rebels launched a fierce attack on the Chengtian Gate without fear of death. At first, they accidentally rushed to the top of the city and were repulsed one by one. , until later, more and more rebels came, and they used the city head as a battlefield, where they fought endlessly.
The two sides fought repeatedly for the top of the city, each suffering extremely heavy casualties. When the rebels set up ladders one by one under the Chengtian Gate, countless soldiers swarmed up to the top of the city like ants. Cheng Chubi smashed the tea bowl and put on his pocket. , with the sword in hand, he shouted at the left and right soldiers and the final reserve team with red eyes!
"As soldiers of the empire, it is our duty to protect our country and die in battle! Now that the rebels are raging, trying to overthrow the imperial court and overthrow the East Palace, we must be loyal to the death! The empire is in a state of panic. How can it be treason? Can the army trample and humiliate you? Everyone, please join me on the top of the city to kill the rebels, protect Taiji Palace, and serve the country with your death!”
The blood of the soldiers on the left and right was rising, they raised their swords one after another, raised their arms and shouted: "Serve the country with death!"
The voice was as dull as thunder, and the man was so angry!
Cheng Chubi ordered his men to report the battle situation to Li Jing who was stationed in the Taiji Palace, and asked for reinforcements. Then he took his own soldiers and the final reserve team to the top of the city, and personally rushed into the enemy group, fighting bravely and bloodyly without fear of death. !
The rebels thought that since they had stormed the city and killed the defenders to the verge of collapse, they had almost secured the victory of "first to the top". However, they were unexpectedly counterattacked by Cheng Chubi's troops. Due to their carelessness, they suffered heavy casualties. After being thrown into disarray, they were actually driven off the city wall, allowing the defenders to retake their positions.
Below the city, Changsun Wuji, who was looking at the battlefield of Chengtianmen from afar, thought that he was almost certain to break through this section of the city wall. When he saw countless soldiers falling from the top of the city like dumplings, even his city could not hold back his anger and shouted angrily. He shouted: "The supervising team came forward and concentrated their forces to attack Chengtian Gate. Anyone who dares to take even half a step back will be killed without mercy!"
This battle is a matter of life and death. Seeing that the city has been attacked, how can we endure the loss again?
Immediately, Linghu Defen, who had not been in battle for a long time, had his helmet pierced and his long snow-white beard fluttering in the wind. He personally led the supervising team to the city. More than a hundred people were lined up in a row, and their steel swords were filled with murderous intent. Suppress the somewhat scattered Guanlong army.
After all, this is a real boss among the Guanlong clan. The last time there was any mention of Linghu Defen going into battle was during the legendary Wude period. Now even this great Confucian who is destined to set up a banner in the literary world of the Tang Dynasty has personally Risking arrows and stones, what room for others to be greedy for life and afraid of death?
In particular, the more than a hundred soldiers under Zhang Sun Wuji's command were murderous and lined up to block the retreat. Linghu Defen jumped on his horse and wielded his sword to kill a defeated soldier with his own hands. He stared angrily, raised his arms and shouted: "This is The battle is life or death. I will advance and retreat together with you, either to fight into the Tai Chi Palace or to die here!”
It's really inspiring.
After the supervising team killed dozens of defeated troops, the momentum of the retreat was finally stopped. All the soldiers once again boosted their morale and launched a fierce attack on the city head.
Cheng Chubi, who had just defeated the rebels, had not had time to take a breath when he saw the ant-like rebels launching an offensive again. The intensity was even greater than before. For a time, the front line defense of Chengtianmen Gate Tower was blocked. The strong attack by the rebels who are several times larger than our own is in danger and danger.
……
In the Tai Chi Palace, Li Jing was taking command, and emergency battle reports from various positions came like snowflakes. But after all, he is a person who is known as the "God of War" and has commanded countless battles. Even if the situation is so urgent, he still commands decisively, constantly dispatching troops and generals to fill the gaps in defense. Orders are issued from his mouth one after another. The captains and clerks under the tent hurriedly conveyed the orders to the army, and the entire command center was in chaos.
At this time, although the heavy rain had stopped and the light rain had not stopped, the entire Tai Chi Palace was like a copper cauldron with a burning fire underneath. The water in the cauldron had dried up and the flames were rising.
"Bang"
The door of the room was pushed open. Li Siwen, who had been removed from the Western Front by Li Jing before the war started and had been reorganized and then served as a central reinforcement for the reserve team, quickly came to Li Jing, wiped the rain from his face, and said in a quick voice: "The Great Qi Commander, the front line of Chengtianmen is about to be undefended. The general is asking for reinforcements.”
Li Jing looked haggard and looked at the map hanging behind him, which was covered with arrows representing the enemy and ourselves, as well as the deployment of various troops led by the Sixth Army of the East Palace. Then he glared at Li Siwen and yelled: "Asshole! I should be responsible for the overall planning of reinforcements. The order must be considered under the circumstances. How can you be allowed to make your own decisions? Besides, the situation on the front line of Chengtian Gate is not only critical, but the entire Taiji Palace is in crisis! Let me ask you, has Cheng Chubi asked for reinforcements? "
Li Siwen said: "No!"
Li Jing said: "Since Cheng Chubi has not asked for help, it means that we can still fight and the defense line of Chengtianmen is still stable. As a captain of the reserve team, you will sit in the middle of the army and wait for my general to come. Yes! ”
Li Siwen argued loudly: "The commander-in-chief doesn't know what he is doing. Cheng Chubi is a stubborn fellow! It's probably impossible for you to expect him to ask for help. It's very likely that the fellow died in the battle under the Chengtian sect, and you can't wait." His call for help!”
As a good gay friend who usually hangs out together, how could Li Siwen not know Cheng Chubi's temperament? That guy is indeed a little clever sometimes, but overall he is still stubborn and doesn't know how to adapt. Now that the war situation is dangerous, the Sixth Army of the East Palace is short of major generals, and the reinforcements are stretched thin. That guy is even more unwilling to show weakness. If no one else asks for help, he is the only one asking for help?
I can't afford to lose that person!
Therefore, it is very likely that they will not find out that their position has been lost until the rebels march straight in from Chengtianmen and that guy has died in the battle...
Li Jing was also surprised when he heard this.
Cheng Chubi was the same as Fang Jun back then, one was stupid and the other was naive. He was simply the "crouching dragon and phoenix chick" among the second generation of distinguished nobles. He was so bright for a moment that he was indistinguishable...(End of Chapter)
