Chapter 3508 Bloody Battle Breakthrough

After all, Liu Xi was a civil servant, and he had never been in a battle before. Today's bloody battle was already frightening. At this moment, facing the whole storehouse of gunpowder, he had lost his former composure and restraint, and he trotted out with Cen Changqian.

Although Cen Changqian is bold and courageous, she is also young and inexperienced. At this time, she was also a little guilty. The two of them still trotted in the beginning, but thinking of the powerful gunpowder barrel behind them, they couldn't help getting chills down their backs, and they ran faster and faster , in the end, he almost sprinted out of the warehouse door...

Panting and looking back at the towering and sturdy warehouse, the two looked at each other, then turned around and joined the crowd.

Cen Changqian held a musket in his hand and looked around at the crowd. Seeing that the students who had been radiant in the past were all scarred and exhausted at the moment, his heart was touched and he said loudly: "Although we come from all over the world, we all bathe in the grace of the emperor and swear Allegiance to His Majesty, allegiance to the Tang Dynasty, dedicated to learning, to become a pillar of the empire in the future! But at this moment, the rebel army is rampant, intending to shake the country and overthrow the country, we, the disciples of the Son of Heaven, should set things right, and die soon!"

"Don't spin your heels!"

"Allegiance to His Majesty!"

All the students were in high spirits and their morale was high.

After all, in this era of supremacy of imperial power, allegiance to the emperor is allegiance to the country.These proud sons of heaven from the nine continents of the world regard themselves as disciples of the emperor and regard it as the supreme glory. At this moment, in order to maintain the orthodoxy of the imperial power, they would rather fight to the death!

In fact, regardless of age, the most easily inspired are young people like this. They have knowledge, ideals, and passion, and they are willing to shed their blood for the justice they yearn for!

There is no regret in death.

Cen Changqian paused, very satisfied with the reaction of the students, and continued: "Although we are not afraid of death, we can't sacrifice this useful body here in vain. I have already made arrangements in the warehouse. After that, all the gunpowder will be ignited, so I invite you to break through with me later! However, we belong to classmates and have the friendship of classmates. At these critical moments, we should advance and retreat together, and live and die hand in hand! Any classmate who is injured , people around you must help each other, don't abandon, don't give up!"

"Do not abandon, do not give up!"

They are all hot-blooded youths, and their blood is agitated by Cen Changqian's few words!
Cen Changqian saw that the morale was good, and said loudly: "Very good! Let's break out all the way to the south, as long as we escape into the mountains and ravines of Zhongnan Mountain, we will escape naturally! Now, start breaking out!"

More than a thousand people gathered in one place, and with a unified command, they did not hesitate to break out of the siege towards the surrounding rebels.

Cen Changqian took the lead, holding his musket while running, and without aiming, he shot a group of rebels in front of him, and a general in leather armor fell to the ground. The rebels around him were startled and ran away.Cen Changqian threw away the musket, drew a horizontal knife from his back, and charged forward with wide eyes.

Ouyang Tong and a group of students followed closely behind. They first fired the muskets in their hands for the last time, regardless of whether they hit the target or not, they simply threw away the muskets before reloading, and rushed forward brandishing the horizontal knife.

More than a thousand students fought bravely to be the first, like a tiger descending a mountain, with momentum like a tide!

This sudden breakout caught the rebels by surprise. They thought that the outer perimeter of the foundry bureau had been breached. Most of these students could only guard the core area of ​​the warehouse and rely on the fortifications to continue to resist. When they were exhausted, they would either be killed or captured. , Who would have thought that he would launch a charge and start to break through without fear of death?
After he reacted, the distance between the two sides was only a few tens of feet away. He quickly bent his bow and set up an arrow, and shot a round of arrows. Before he could shoot the second round, more than a thousand students bravely rushed into the formation and started a close fight .

This round of arrows hit quite a few students, but these students were tenacious and fearless, endured the pain and cut off the arrow shaft with a sharp blade. It is best to take out the arrow clusters. Even if they can’t be taken out, let them stay in the body and bandage Then he continued to charge under the watchful eye of his classmates.

People have the heart to follow the crowd, so the morale of the army is the most important. Once a soldier is afraid of fighting, it will easily lead to a collapse of morale. Often one person flees before the battle, which will cause the entire army to disperse.

On the contrary, in the current hot-blooded atmosphere, even those who are usually cowardly, cowardly, and cowardly will burst out with great courage, without knowing what fear is, and even disregarding life and death!
Especially after listening to Cen Changqian's speech just now, she puts the love of classmates at the top of the list. Everyone is brave and strives to be the first, and is even willing to stand up and use their bodies to defend the classmates around them from the enemy's knives and arrows. The spirit of fear of death and solidarity made these more than a thousand students burst out with extremely powerful fighting power, and inserted straight into the rebel formation like a sharp sword.

If the regular army were to charge the students like this, they might be caught off guard due to lack of preparation at the beginning, but then they should react in time, gather from the two wings to the middle, compress the formation of the students, and try to cut them in half. Divide into two, and then break each one.But the rebels were a mob, and most of them were not even government soldiers. They seriously lacked experience in such a large-scale battle. They were rushed by the students and immediately lost their positions.

Another point is that these rebels are just domestic slaves and farmers of various families in Guanlong. They are not real rebels after all. I was already afraid, but now I am frightened by the momentum, and I am afraid, so it is difficult to organize an effective offensive to resist the students' breakthrough.

Not to mention that these students not only had knives in their hands, but from time to time, the thunder that flew out of the students' hands fell into the formation, causing the rebels to turn their backs on their backs and disrupt their formation, scurrying around like headless flies. There is no time limit either.

In fact, even the general who was born in Guanlong, the leader, was shocked by the momentum of the students descending like a tiger. Seeing the students rushing into their own formation like a broken bamboo, they threw the thunder in their hands around. Every time one is thrown, one will be killed. Several rebel generals couldn't help getting together, discussing with each other, and decided to open a road and let these students leave.

First of all, these students are all the proud sons of heaven, and almost everyone represents the family or power behind them. Regardless of the fact that the Guanlongmen faction launched a mutiny to completely control the power of the court, after all, the power in this world is impossible Being monopolized by the Guanlongmen Clan family, in the end, there must be some compromises with all parties.

If all these students are killed right now, then the Guanlong Clan and the forces in Jiangnan and Shandong will be considered to have planted a deadly enmity, which cannot be resolved, and will plant the root of disaster for future control of the court.

Furthermore, they don't care whether these students can break out. Their task is to capture the foundry bureau, seize firearms, guns, gunpowder and other firearms in the warehouse, and use them to attack the imperial city. Since these students are already struggling to break through, why bother? How about trying to stop it with a large number of casualties?

It's better to just let them go and hurry up to move the firearms in the warehouse...

The several generals were all from different clans, commanding the armies of their respective clans under their command, they immediately reached an agreement to gather the rebels, and let the students fight their way straight to Zhongnan Mountain.They organized the rebels to wipe out the casting bureau first, and then opened the warehouse.

When I saw countless muskets and gunpowder barrels stacked neatly in several warehouses connected in one place, I was immediately ecstatic!

If so much gunpowder is transported under the imperial city and ignited, it may blow up the entire imperial city to the sky!
This is a great achievement!In terms of rewards after the fact, it is easy for these generals to be promoted to a higher level, and maybe they can get a honor...

"Go and find some carts to transport gunpowder!"

"Don't be chaotic, line up!"

"Designate tasks to each other. Someone is responsible for moving gunpowder from the warehouse, and someone is responsible for transporting the gunpowder to Chang'an City with a cart!"

Under the dispatch of several generals, more than ten thousand people gradually restored order, and began to move the gunpowder in the warehouse according to their duties.

First of all, it is natural to start from the largest warehouse in the middle. There are almost no other firearms in this warehouse, and they are all gunpowder in wooden barrels.The orderly transportation work started, and the rest of the rebels who were useless were guarding around the warehouse, their bows and stringed knives were out of their sheaths, and they were ready to fight. In case those students returned to their carbines and suddenly attacked while everyone was carrying the gunpowder, the formation would inevitably be chaotic and heavy losses would be suffered. .
