Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 160 Chang'an City is broken!

Lost Lu Bu's battlefield, as if the passionate and high-pitched piano music suddenly broke the strings.Then it was replaced by the low but more shocking muffled sound of the morning bell and evening drum.

Every step forward by the well rails, trebuchets, and ramming carts seemed to hit a heavy hammer on the hearts of the Chang'an defenders, causing them to feel heavy, blocked, and extremely ugly.

The siege equipment guarded by [-] Xiliang iron cavalry finally came under the city wall of Chang'an. The first thing to show off was the long-range and extremely lethal trebuchet.Dozens of trebuchets threw huge stones together, and the sky above the entire Chang'an City seemed to be instantly darkened.

Immediately afterwards, countless boulders fell from the sky, and the entire west city wall made a loud "rumbling" sound, as if it had been blasted down.In the blink of an eye, hundreds of Chang'an defenders were smashed to death.

Most of those soldiers were old soldiers who were extremely capable of hand-to-hand combat. During their combat career, they rarely encountered siege equipment such as trebuchets.And because the defenders beside them forgot to remind them in fear, these people immediately became the souls of the dead under the boulder.

"Look for cover and hide! Archers, don't retreat, counterattack while the catapult is firing!"

Xu Rong shouted loudly, and the messenger around him once again delivered his life regardless of his life.However, just as the voice fell, a huge stone hit the direction of the turret, and the huge stone suddenly collapsed the city wall rammed with earth, and the smoke and dust aroused made Xu Rong and others cough and panic.

However, such an order didn't do much.After all, Xu Rong's identity is not a legitimate leader, and many people even don't know who Xu Rong is.

In this era of advocating bravery, perhaps Lu Budeng shouted, and these soldiers could still show their courage for the last time.It's a pity that with Lu Bu's departure, he seemed to take away the courage of these soldiers.

On the other hand, the Northwest Iron Cavalry, which has won the flag, is a majestic and shouting scene.As the military flag of the Central Army fluttered, these siege equipment began to gather slowly, focusing on the weak links of the Chang'an city wall that they had discovered over the past few days, and carried out focused attacks.At the same time, the rumbling car was also pushed under the gate of Chang'an Ba ​​City unimpeded.

In the next instant, the sky seemed to be filled with dark clouds.Dark clouds fell, houses collapsed, soldiers died, it was a rain of death.Under its precise and indiscriminate envelope, no one can be spared, and the huge city wall rattled loudly as if it was overwhelmed.

Soon, the city wall of the west city was slowly flattened by a foot at a speed visible to the naked eye.The counterattack of the defenders on the city wall was even more vulnerable. In the blink of an eye, the old soldiers on the west city wall were all dead.Many old soldiers began to abandon their duties, some began to hide everywhere, some yelled like crazy, some turned around and left, but were beheaded by the warlord.

At this moment, the rush car under Bacheng also started.They braved the rain of arrows shot by the Chang'an defenders regardless of the sharp arrows on the well fence, and began to fill the river with soil.In a blink of an eye, the moat road became a smooth road, and the rumbling car continued to move forward, and was only slightly suppressed when it reached the bottom of the city.

The defenders of Chang'an threw rolling logs, rocks and other objects on the rushing cart desperately, but the rushing cart designed by Jia Xu thought of these in advance, using tendon leather animal locks as the main beam, covered with fur made of cattle and sheep, Both resilient and elastic, the rolling wood and rocks were thrown on the car, except for the occasional hits on the Northwest sergeants hiding on the fur ground, and they didn't even hurt the car at all.

"Burn that chariot with kerosene!" Xu Rong watched helplessly as the chariots of the Northwest Army were raging, and at the same time there were countless soldiers with shields on their hands trying to dig the corner of the Bacheng Gate, so anxious that even his voice changed his tune. Son.

But as soon as he finished yelling, Xu Rong suddenly froze and his face was extremely gloomy.Because Huangfusong behind him had closed his eyes in despair at this time, and said bitterly: "Don't waste your efforts, withdraw all soldiers into Chang'an City, and prepare for street fighting."

Looking at Xu Rong's astonished gaze, Huangfusong's heart was pierced like a knife, and he was also in such pain that he couldn't breathe: "Last night, Lord Situ ordered all the objects that ignite the fire to be scattered among the various castles. These Northwest Army will be destroyed!"

"Corrupt Confucianism ruined the country!" Xu Rong's face finally turned into despair after hearing the words, and then he muttered: "Having such powerful ministers in the Han Dynasty, the disaster is even worse than Dong Zhuo!"

Just as Xu Rong finished speaking, there was a sudden loud bang under the gate of Bacheng, which made even the ground tremble.It turned out that in the two-pronged approach of rushing cars and manpower, Chang'an's Bacheng Gate finally couldn't bear it, and was washed down for a long time.The smoke and dust exploded, flying into the air like an angry tornado, and the battlefield was completely covered by smoke and dust.

The Northwest Army immediately shouted to their heart's content when they heard the sound, while the Chang'an defenders were depressed and out of their minds.

"Quickly retreat into the city lanes to defend, and fight each other!" Zhu Jun shouted without hesitation when the two were unable to issue military orders.At the same time, the left and right hands used all their strength to grab Huangfusong and Xu Rong, two people with the will to die, and shouted loudly: "If you want to die, you have to wait until the end. Now that His Majesty has not returned yet, we are going to fight!" Until the moment when the blood runs out!"

When Huangfusong and Xu Rong heard the words, they felt remorseful, and at the same time ran down the turret to gather their own soldiers.Zhu Jun gave them a reason to continue fighting, and people like them have no excuse to give up.

At the same time, Jia Xu watched in shock as the gate of Chang'an was easily breached by the Northwest army.It never occurred to him that Huangfusong, Zhu Jun and Xu Rong would turn a blind eye to a fire attack loophole he deliberately left for the Chang'an defenders!
Something must have happened!
After thinking about it, Jia Xu's complexion suddenly changed, and he grabbed Li Jue's arm who was about to wave the command flag to prepare for the general attack, and said in a panic: "General, you must not, there are frauds in Chang'an City! They want to burn Chang'an City, Come die with us!"

"Fart! If you disturb the morale of the army again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Li Jue pushed away Jia Xu who was an eyesore, and he couldn't give up just because of Jia Xu's words.

In an instant, Li Jue ordered the flag to be waved, and the northwest army rushed towards the gap like a tide.The Chang'an defenders who were in charge of breaking the rear also flocked to the gap, desperately trying to block the Northwest Army.

Li Jue laughed loudly when he saw this, and waved the command flag again. The extremely fierce Xiliang iron cavalry suddenly swept past like a gust of wind and blood, carrying cold iron scorpions, countless arms, weapons, and flying horses that were detached from their limbs. Blood was sprinkled under the gate of Bacheng, paving a blood-stained road for the Northwest Army, which was poignant and cruel.

"Brothers, when you enter Chang'an City, it's still the old rule. What you see and grab is yours. After you break through the palace, you are allowed to plunder for three days, hahaha!..." Guo Bang slapped his sword and rushed forward into the city of Chang'an.He had held back this sentence in his heart for a long time, and now he let it out happily, immediately feeling as comfortable and carefree as drinking fine wine.

"General Zhang, if you can trust me, Jia Xu, don't enter the city with the army!" The moment the Northwest armies invaded Chang'an City, Jia Xu suddenly grabbed Zhang Ji's shirt.

He was sure that in his life, he had never begged others so humbly.I also knew that I couldn't persuade Zhang Ji to lead troops to stop the northwestern tribes from looting Chang'an City at this time, so I had no choice but to ask Zhang Ji not to enter the city.

Zhang Ji was startled suddenly, and looked at Jia Xu without blinking, not understanding why Jia Xu was like this.On the other hand, Zhang Xiu, whose robe was stained with blood, was the first to react, suppressing the murderous aura on his body, immediately cupped his fist respectfully at Jia Xu, and said seriously, "Uncle Jia, we need a reason."

"Because, I am His Majesty who was buried in the secret room of the Han officials in the various tribes of Liangzhou. The task of this old man is to screen out the cancerous tumors in the Xiliang Army for His Majesty, so that His Majesty can receive a team that can fight for the Han Dynasty without a doubt. Xiliang cavalry!"

Jia Xu closed her eyes and said the answer suddenly.In fact, he also knew that telling Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew that there must be an ambush in Chang'an City was much better than this reason.However, at this moment, for some reason, Jia Xu said something that even he himself couldn't believe it.

These words immediately caught Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's hearts like a storm.They never imagined that when Chang'an was clearly powerless, Jia Xu would say such shocking words.You must know that at this time, the various tribes in Liangzhou and the Han Dynasty have long been at odds with each other, and the situation is like fire and water!

For a moment, Zhang Ji clenched the big knife in his hand.He was hesitating whether he should slash this conspirator who was eating inside and out.

"Uncle Jia, you have to think clearly. It's still too late to turn around now. I can guarantee uncle, we didn't hear what you said just now!"

"No, you have already heard it." Jia Xu slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly had a sense of belonging, and said with a faint smile: "Besides, I also want to tell you that Chang'an City will never be breached." !"

"why?!"

"Because, the Son of Heaven is destined to fall from the sky!" Jia Xu nodded heavily, as if speaking to Zhang Ji and his nephew, as well as to himself: "I believe that at the last moment, the Son of Heaven will definitely appear in Chang'an City with reinforcements to turn the tide !"
