Lingxian Zhenjun

Chapter 396 Everyone, listen to the dragon chant

"General, don't be reckless. Practitioners have always had weird tempers. Don't force yourself. When the time comes, I will go there in person to show my sincerity!"

The emperor seemed to be about to reach that level, and couldn't help but smile. At the same time as his words fell, a figure was riding over at this moment.

"Why does Your Majesty want to go there in person? The last general also wants to see it."

At this time, majestic words came from not far away. Chen Qingzhi was riding a white horse, dressed in military uniform, and when the horse's back was shaking, the nail leaves rubbed against each other to make a unique sound of metal.

"Shut up!"

He reined in his horse to stop, rolled over, kept proper etiquette, and bowed his hands in salute, "Chen Qingzhi pays his respects to His Majesty."

"Mr. Wudu is exempt from the ceremony."

Yuan Hao has always been very polite to General Liang, so he didn't hide anything. He told the story of the small school again, and also told about his desire to visit the Taoist temple in the deep mountains.

Chen Qingzhi frowned slightly, then clasped his fists heavily.

"Your Majesty can't. If you can break through Xingyang, you should take advantage of the victory and attack Luoyang in one go, instead of stopping halfway to find the way in that mountain. If you miss the opportunity, Er Zhurong, Yuan Tianmu and other Wei army are very likely to catch up with us. Rescue Luoyang, set up a heavy defense line, and then fight again, it will become difficult to break through."

On the horse's back, Yuan Hao was stunned for a moment, staring at Chen Qingzhi who bowed his head and clasped his fists, and then laughed: "What Lord Wudu said is true, I'm too impatient, the more important thing is to attack Luoyang."

Thinking that the emperor's desire to seek the way had been extinguished, Chen Qingzhi also heaved a sigh of relief, and then he left, and quickly returned to the front, leading his soldiers and horses to Xingyang City in the east of Luoyang. This city must be conquered no matter what. Will face the enemy.

With the flying flag flying, Yuan Hao looked at the white horse going away, his smile gradually cooled down.

"You don't lack, that's what you have, but as the emperor, how can I let a general compare, and how can I convince the people when I arrive in Luoyang?" '

However, he pretended nothing had happened, and just waved his hand, asking Qiu Daqian to urge the army to set up camp and help build siege equipment.

This afternoon, when they arrived in Xingyang and visited the important town with high walls, both Chen Qingzhi and Yuan Hao felt extremely heavy.

Under the flags of 'Yuan' and 'Yang' fluttering on the top of the city, the figures of soldiers were full of energy, patrolling past, a haze of energy, not comparable to the [-] Imperial Forest Army in the previous field battle, plus it was an important town, wanting to attack Going to the top of the city, the casualties must be terrible.

Even more serious news was delivered to Chen Qingzhi at night.

Shangdang King Yuan Tianmu's army was already on the way back, so he dispatched his hussar general Erzhu Tumeier to lead Hu cavalry with five thousand cavalry generals Lu An led Xiazhou cavalry with nine thousand cavalry to come for reinforcements, and within two days they arrived at Xingyang .

Chen Qingzhi clenched his fists after listening to the guard's report, walked back and forth in the tent, his brows were almost wrinkled, he took off his cloak and hung it on the rack, holding the white dragon sword presented by his husband to watch.

"If Wei Guo's reinforcements arrive, we won't have to fight at all, and delaying it can drag us to death."

"For the current plan, we can only go all out to attack the top of the city within two days, occupy Xingyang for Wei's reinforcements, and find another opportunity to fight in the field."

He stood at the entrance of the tent, looking at the night outside: "But if you want to kill the city in one go, I can only lead the troops..."

This is an extremely difficult choice. As the general of an army, it is reasonable to lead the cavalry to rush forward in the field, but it is different in the battle of climbing the city. If you are not careful, you will be shot by an arrow and fall down the ladder. It won't block the arrows for him.

When he was staring at the night in a daze, the soldiers guarding the gate of the camp were shouting, "Who?!"

A sentry arrow shot into the sky.

There are dense figures in the field, and the cloth towel wrapped on the soles of the feet is approaching silently. While clearing the secret sentry, the sentry arrows were shot and exploded in the night sky. One after another, lurking figures got on their horses, raised their spears and launched a charge. This is from Xingyang. Yuan Xiangong, the general of the Fu army who came out quietly, led two thousand cavalry, all of whom were elite.

He has often heard that the general of the Liang Kingdom has a divine sword, which is invincible on the battlefield, and he wants to avoid its sharp edge when attacking at night, so as to catch the opponent by surprise.

Once successful, on this night, they will be able to storm the camp and kill the false emperor Yuan Hao and the general of the Liang Kingdom!

He pulled out the saber at his waist, listened to the sentry arrows exploding in the night sky, and roared in a low voice: "Kill!"

Dense figures rode war horses and galloped in the night, stepping on pinches of wild grass in the wilderness, rushing towards Liang Guo's barracks with bright bonfires ahead.

……

At this time, the Liang army camp was already in a state of agitation. They pushed their horses and arrived at the gate. A large number of soldiers poured out of the tents and assembled in an orderly manner. The former army camp commanded Liang Bing to deploy defenses in the camp, and even piled all the tents on the ground. Once the gate was broken, these flammable things were ignited to prevent the horses from advancing.

Qiu Daqian protected the emperor in the camp of the Chinese army, and the soldiers from other camps also came quickly.

"coming!"

Feeling the ground trembling slightly, Chen Qingzhi squeezed the hilt of his sword tightly. In the sight of thousands of Liang soldiers, the rockets fired by the sentry tower crossed the night sky. In the small area of ​​fire, there were torrents of rushing torrents, which landed on the ground after the rockets. It was stamped out.

"Prepare--"

Chen Qingzhi turned on his horse and reined in the reins. Amidst the horse's whine, he hissed loudly, "Get ready to meet the enemy!"

The gun formation rushed forward, and a long spear set up the horse as a buffer. On both sides were teams of shield soldiers holding steel knives to guard the spear formation behind them. The archers were also protected and arranged in front of the front barracks. In the last line of defense, they have melee weapons around their waists. Once the enemy gets close, they will draw out their blades and fight with them.

To become an archer, the arm strength is naturally much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, and the endurance is also enough, not inferior to most elite infantry. Otherwise, how can you hold the bow for a long time to participate in the whole battle.

Rumbling--

The sound of horseshoes shook the ground, and the wilderness outside the camp gradually became clear. The next moment, arrows flew towards the sentry tower like rain. The bow strikes back.

"Three hundred steps!"

A small school in front of Liang Bing yelled loudly as he visually observed the distance of the enemy in the dark night, maintaining the gun formation behind the rejected horses, one by one the soldiers held down the barrels of their guns, listening to the sound of iron hooves getting closer, they opened their mouths and breathed heavily , In the dark night in the eyes, the sound of running turned into reality, and it was clear that the cavalry of the Wei army rushing like a tide were rushing at high speed.

"Seventy steps!"

In just a few breaths, he almost reached the gate, and in the spear formation standing on the front line, Liang Junbing was already extremely nervous, his pores dilated, his hairs stood on end, and his eye sockets were hot.

"Hold your guns and meet the enemy!" There was a general in the final shout.

The moment the surging iron hooves exploded in front of the shaft gate, countless soldiers heard different voices like auditory hallucinations.

"Everyone, listen to the dragon chant."

Houang——

The dragon chants all over the world, interrupting the sound of the roaring iron hooves, making one's scalp tingle.

A huge long shadow, under the quiet moonlight, meanders and swims, and the scales brush over the branches and leaves, making a soft rattle.

The dozen or so Wei cavalry who were about to hit the gate suddenly turned on their backs and slid on the ground for several feet.

sigh -

The horse roared loudly, slowed down, and kicked its hooves on the spot in horror, not daring to move forward.
