Chapter 325 Blood Fire ([-])

When Feng Qingyun walked into the granary, Qi An knew what he wanted to say from the fear and despair written on his face.

"The city...is broken," Feng Qingyun said with trembling lips, "Both the east gate and the north gate have fallen, and the south gate can't hold out for long. Only the west gate is silent. It is estimated that the enemy's ambush is waiting there. Ten times or more A lot of enemy troops poured in from the city gate, we are finished now..."

Across the thick walls of the granary, one could still hear the earth-shattering shouts of war drums and horns, and the neighing of people and horses made Qi An unable to think.Although I knew that there would be a moment to break the city, but when I actually faced it, it still made people panic.

"We have to run!" It was Ren Wen who spoke. He was young when he joined the army, and his crude armor was extremely loose. "We are just soldiers guarding the granary. I don't want to be buried with that stupid old general."

"The general is dead." Feng Qingyun's eyes were as blank as those of a dead man. "When he just broke through the city, he rode a horse and charged at the enemy army entering the city with a big knife. A big man with a hammer in the enemy army rushed towards him. Come on, in just one round, the general's head was smashed, and the brains were as yellow and white as his beard."

Finally, he added: "I saw it with my own eyes."

"That's it," Ren Wen shouted immediately, "The general is dead, and no one can control us now! Take advantage of the chance to escape now, or we will die when the enemy forces attack us later. !"

After finishing speaking, he asked Feng Qingyun, "Feng Qingyun, do you think so?" Then he asked the other eight brothers, "Do you think so?"

Qi An looked at Feng Qingyun, but Feng Qingyun avoided his gaze: "My lord, you are the biggest here, please give me an order!"

So Qi An looked at all the brothers again, a total of ten granary defenders.Everyone returned a more eager look.

The granary is originally a serious situation, but in the past three days of defending the city, too many people have died.Due to the continuous adjustment, there are only ten people who are still guarding the granary.

"Quickly give the order! Master Shichang." Ren Wen's eyes were the most intense.

"I think what Ren Wen said is right, give the order, Master Shichang." A brother said.

"No matter what order you give, I will obey you." Feng Qingyun said.

Everyone urged in unison: "Master Shichang! Give the order!"

Qi An took a deep breath.After a long time, he said:

"Ren Wen and Feng Qingyun go and get me all the horses we can find. Let's break out from the west gate. Everyone else immediately set fire to all the food and grass. They must not be left to the enemy."

Everyone cheered and followed suit.Qi An also breathed a sigh of relief.

The horses were quickly found, and the weapons and armor were abundant. During the three days of defending the city, people died continuously, so these equipments were emptied.

When Qi An led his men to ride out of the granary, a scorching heat wave hit, not only from the burning granary behind, but also from the entire burning city.

There seemed to be flames dancing in the houses not far away, and the flames reflected the night red, and everything under the stars could be clearly forgotten.

The fighting has spread to close proximity, and the city defenders are fighting the enemy in the streets.

As soon as Qi An and his group appeared from the granary, someone immediately shouted at them: "Over there, come here and help us!"

Qi An looked over, it was Xiaowei Wang, he and a few brothers were surrounded by dozens of enemy troops.

But the young lieutenant did not give in. He and his brothers fought back to back, slashing left and right with his long knife, and the enemy's wooden spears broke one after another.

Qi An noticed that the captain's brocade cloak seemed to be bulged up high, and after looking carefully, he found that it was propped up by the half spear that pierced the captain's shoulder.

The enemy army also found Qi An and the others, and immediately dozens of people rushed towards them with red eyes and shouts.

Feng Qingyun was going crazy at this moment, he yelled:

"Let's go, Master Shida, we will only die if we try to save them."

Qi An stared closely at the school lieutenant who was still dying to fight, his right hand tightly clenched the hilt of the sword, his knuckles turned white from too much force.

"Let's rush to the west gate, follow me!" He couldn't believe it was the words that came out of his mouth.

Qi An rode his horse and galloped, fighting seemed to be taking place in every lane, some were sporadic battles with the enemy, and some were pure massacres.

Qi An saw the enemy soldiers rush into the houses, the men were killed on the spot, and the women were stripped naked and dragged out of the house by their hair.When some enemy soldiers saw Qi An and his party, they screamed strangely and rushed towards them holding long knives.

Qi An drew out his long sword and shouted loudly: "Whoever blocks me will die!"

An enemy soldier stabbed at Qi An on horseback with a spear.Qi An slashed with his sword, and the wooden spear broke in two along with the man's arm.

The other's long knife was sharply aimed at Qi An's thigh. The armor blocked the attack of the long knife, but the leg bones under the armor were almost cut off by the violent impact.Qi An screamed, and at the same time sent the sharp sword into the man's throat.

Fortunately, the speed of the horse had increased, and it quickly left the battle.

Qi Anqiang held back the severe pain in his thigh, and looked back, the bright flames were shooting straight into the sky, the tall city tower was burning, half of the eaves had collapsed, and the oppressive city walls around them seemed to be roasted dark red by the fire, as if a circle was dyed all over. An ancient scroll of blood.

On the side of the road, a soldier whose arms had been cut off collapsed on the ground and howled, "Mother—!"

There was a long trail of blood behind him, I don't know how he got here, but at this moment this man was crying like a baby.

When turning around an alleyway, the road ahead was suddenly crowded with dozens of enemy troops. Qi An never thought that the enemy troops had already rushed here. Is looking for death.

He bit the bullet and shouted: "Let's not stop! Rush over!"

The enemy army was caught off guard by this sudden attack, and the first two were knocked into the air by Qi An's horse, the shattering of bones and the collision of armor seemed to ring in their ears.

Qi An swung his sword down and chopped off a person's helmet. The guy was so frightened that he hugged his head and crouched on the ground.With another backhand sword, the head of the other person was chopped off and flew high.

The horse's speed inevitably slowed down after a series of slams and slashes, and the oncoming spears and guns were everywhere.

The desire to survive has never been as strong as it is at this moment, Qi An's mind is blank, only knowing that he is frantically swinging the long sword, and kicking his feet desperately on the horse's belly.

In the end, the helmet had been lost, and the long sword had been swung out of his hand, and he didn't know where it fell.

His head was buzzing, he didn't know what to think or see, he only knew to instinctively roar, instinctively wave the hand that no longer had a sword, and instinctively gallop his horse as fast as he could.Everything, including the whole world, seems unimportant, and all that is left is the survival instinct.

When Qi An came back to his senses, there was no enemy in front of him, the horse was still galloping, and the empty street was in front of him.

He even rushed out!Qi An felt that he was about to cry, he couldn't believe that he really rushed out.

Yes, the sound of shouting and killing has fallen behind, and the scorching heat wave is gradually leaving.

He looked around, and there were only four riders around him. One of the riders had a brother who had died, but his feet were still in the stirrups. He was dragged by the frightened horse, and his head kept hitting the bluestone floor, making loud bangs.

"Where are the others?" Qi An asked loudly.

One was crying, the other was still dull-faced, and the one who was slightly awake said in a crying voice: "I don't know, I don't know..."

At this moment, Qi An remembered that Feng Qingyun's war horse seemed to have been broken or had its legs cut off, and he knelt down on the ground at once. Feng Qingyun on the horse fell to the ground, and immediately several spears stabbed him heart.

And Ren Wen was always by his side. When a long spear stabbed at him, Ren Wen held the tip of the gun and saved his life, but more spears pierced Ren Wen's ribs at the same time, and he The whole person was lifted off the horse's back.

As for the rest, he had no time to pay attention at all.

The night wind seemed to grow stronger at once, and the flame demons burning the city laughed louder and louder in the wind, whistling, the flames became brighter, and the volume of the collision of weapons and the screams of people before death also increased.Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo

Severe pain rushed into his body suddenly, and Qi An realized that he was injured. Two fingers were cut off at some point, and a hole seemed to be pierced in the ankle by a spear, and blood was leaking out of the cloth shoes. .

Once you make up your mind to run away, nothing can stop you. As the saying goes, the army is defeated like a mountain, perhaps because there are people like myself around.

"Where are you going?" A voice startled Qi An, "Stop for me! Go back to your position, the city is alive and the people are here! The city is dead and the people are dead!"

A tall figure on horseback blocked the way of several people, and the cold light emitted by the steel knife he held made people feel chills from the bottom of their hearts.

That was the war supervisor, and the knife in his hand was designed to cut deserters.

At this time, a stray arrow came from nowhere and shot into the War Supervisor's neck. The War Supervisor who was hit by the arrow looked less scary than before, so he was dragged off his horse by the other three granary defenders and chopped into pieces.

Qi An watched all this silently. He thought that the blood-stained yellow Shama leather shroud was his best destination, but he didn't expect that he would become a deserter.

There will be no more enemy soldiers or warlords on the next road, and the west gate is close in sight. A group of frightened sheep-like people have gathered under the city. What kind of ambushes will be waiting behind this quiet city gate?

Qi An knew that there would be ambushes, and surrounded the city on three sides, let one side go.

This is a truth that everyone understands, but no one uses courage to fight against countless enemies. The enemies in the darkness outside the city may be more deadly, but it can make people not too desperate and take chances.

The pitifully few dozens of defenders on the tall tower looked at Qi An and his party covered in blood in horror, and asked loudly:
"What are you going to do?"

Qi An replied loudly: "Quickly open the city gate and put down the suspension bridge, the city is already broken, there is still time to escape."

Someone replied: "The general has an order not to open the city!"

"The general is dead!" Qi An shouted, "And countless enemy troops are coming, there will be no chance if it is too late!"

Just as he was talking, another group of hundreds of defeated troops rushed over, and the leader shouted loudly at the guards at the city gate:
"Hurry up and open the door! The group of miscellaneous/species of enemy troops have already chased them over!"

Before the words were finished, another group of cavalry arrived and opened the door with the same yelling.

The defenders on the city tower finally couldn't hold on any longer. As the winches creaked, the drawbridge was being lowered and the city gate was being opened.

Among the gathered people, a woman holding a crying baby tremblingly asked Qi'an:
"Master, where are you going?"

Qi An didn't answer, and didn't know how to answer.

The woman asked again: "Master Jun, you will protect us, right?"

A man next to her now cursed:

"They want to run for their lives, these bastards, they want to leave us and run for their lives!"

Qi An felt a pain in his heart, he was determined to swing the sword for the people in the city, but when the city was broken, he swung the sword because of fear and himself.

Behind the wide open city gate, the suspension bridge that was slowly lowering suddenly came to a sudden stop, and the soldiers on the city wall cried out in horror:
"It's stuck! The winch is stuck!"

There were screams, curses and cries immediately below the city. No one thought that at this time, the suspension bridge was stuck.

If the suspension bridge cannot be put down, no one can get out!

The soldiers on the city wall were trying to cut the twisted rope, when suddenly a rain of arrows rose from the city and fell towards the city gate.

Countless people screamed one after another, and when Qi An came to his senses, there were already countless screaming people lying down around him.

However, there was no sound on the city wall, and the soldiers on it all died in the rain of arrows.

Everyone became desperate. They didn't look back in horror, as if the enemy army was coming at any time.

At this time, there was a strange sound in the night sky more than ten feet above everyone's heads.

The sound was sharp and piercing, as if there was an invisible big mouth sucking in all the surrounding air.

Everyone was taken aback by the change, and looked up at the night with their heads up.

Suddenly something fell out of nowhere from the night sky and fell to the ground.

It was a young man who kept yelling and cursing.

Then something fell beside the young man, it was a piece of wood in the shape of a human.

After a while, another thing fell down.

It turned out to be a giant white dog with the size of a cow! ! !
