Chapter 813 Breakthrough, Desperate Situation
The guard stared blankly at the artillery position filled with gunpowder smoke in the distance, then stretched out his hand to wipe his face, and then lowered his head, he saw blood on his hand.
Ears are buzzing, looking around for a week.
Everyone, almost everyone was lying on the ground, and there was even a small group of deserters running towards the city.
The gunpowder smoke in the distance gradually dissipated, and when the guard saw someone raising a knife, he immediately shouted, "Get down!"
"Boom boom boom boom!"
"Wow!"
The guard lay on the ground and saw a battlement collapsed by bombardment, and the flying bricks lifted a sergeant's sky cover.
Can you still hold on?
The guard crawled to the side, carefully lying on the battlements and looking out.
...
"The city gate is open!"
After a loud cry, Zhang Fu shook his head and said, "A few more rounds of bombardment to depress the enemy's morale."
So the artillery roared again, and the city wall cracked in many places.
"boom!"
This cannon accidentally bombarded the last crack, and the crack gradually expanded, and suddenly collapsed on a slope amidst the exclamation from the top of the city.
This time Zhu Zhanji didn't need to remind him, he immediately ordered: "Go in!"
Fang Xing waved his hand, and Xin Laoqi immediately shouted to the back: "Jubao Mountain Guard... Go forward!"
"Forward! Forward! Forward!"
Lin Qun'an regretted that his reaction was a little too late, but when Jubaoshanwei was the first to rush out of the army formation, his pride was already bursting.
There were 30,000 cavalrymen and Zhuquewei, but the first to respond was Jubaoshanwei.
"kill!"
Just when Fang Xing was also proud of his subordinates, he heard a scream... Oh no, it should be a woman's cry.
Fuck!
Fang Xing turned around,
I saw a woman in... silver armor brandishing a long knife and shouting, but behind her were a group of men in homespun clothes.
Although there are only 500 swordsmen and spearmen, people can still feel the sturdy aura.
Although they are soldiers, the running speed of these people is not much slower than that of horses.
"Who is this?"
The cavalry had to follow the pawns, otherwise, if they were ambushed in the city, it would be self-inflicted.
When the first burst of gunshots came from the city, Zhu Zhanji said: "It's the chieftain on the other side of Guangxi. The woman was originally Washi, but later she was renamed Li Mengling. She is the daughter of the commander. Five hundred native soldiers went to Beijing to contribute, and they were said a few words by the governors of the five armies, so they insisted on proving themselves on the battlefield."
"How do you know so clearly?"
Fang Xing asked suspiciously: "Could it be that you plan to take in a chieftain's daughter?"
Zhu Zhanji said with an earthy face: "Brother Dehua, please don't hurt me. If the woman disagrees with her, she will do it. How dare I!"
...
Zhuquewei rushed into the city immediately, and then Zhang Fu's order came.
"The British minister ordered your department to replace Jubaoshan to defend the Qing Dynasty."
"Then what is Jubao Mountain Guard doing?"
Song Jianran felt wronged, could it be that Lao Tzu was raised by his stepmother?
"Jubaoshanwei will rush out and go straight to Hancheng Mansion!"
Just like that, Suzaku Guard was left in the city to be suppressed, but Jubaoshan Guard didn't stay, and as the cavalry arrived, they directly killed the entire city.
Surrounded by guards, Zhu Zhanji passed through the city. Seeing those local soldiers chasing and killing the enemy on the road, he couldn't help praising: "Sure enough, they are fierce soldiers!"
Li Mengling's silver armor was very eye-catching. When several rebels saw that she was a woman, they thought she was easy to bully, so they surrounded her and prepared to capture her for bargaining.
With a flash of the saber, the spear of the rebel who was going to test in front broke from the middle, and then Li Mengling snarled, stabbed the saber into the opponent's lower abdomen, and stirred it casually without changing his expression.
Then the woman did not retreat but advanced, one person, one knife, rushed into the crowd of people like a whirlwind, and was killed in an instant.
"Amazing!"
Looking at the fallen rebel army behind her, Fang Xing shook his head, shivered, and hurriedly rode up to follow.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
Gunpowder smoke filled the air behind them, and the rebels had nowhere to hide after being fired upon.
...
"Have you come? Is Mingren here?"
Li Fangyuan had already lost his composure. Outside the main hall, the horse-drawn carts and ox carts that he would not dare to enter at all were now fully occupied, and they were full of various important classics and household registrations.
"Your Highness, there is still no news."
The military officers were all gone, and they all went to gather the army to prepare to defend Seoul.
The civil servants were all startled, and they couldn't help but think of the period when they were ruled by the Mongols.
"Father! Father!"
Li Po also lost his composure, he ran in quickly, and said with a pale face: "Father, the scouts have found the traces of the Japanese pirates."
Chungcheongdo has fallen!
Li Fangyuan's body shook a few times, and the civil servants below saw it with complicated expressions.
Leaning over the table, Li Fangyuan said angrily, "It's only been two days! It's only been two days! Could it be that those defenders are all chickens and dogs?"
Li Po shook his head, "Father, my son thought that the Japanese pirates must have broken through quickly, so there was no one to report the news."
Li Fangyuan's eyelids twitched wildly, and his eyes stopped on the carriages outside the hall.
"Your Highness, North Korea cannot do without you! You must evacuate Seoul Mansion!"
"Yes! Your Highness, I am willing to lead the army to end the queen!"
"That old bone of the minister can be used as a pioneer! If you die in battle, please step on the bones of the minister and continue to fight!"
"..."
Li Fangyuan was a little dazed, he couldn't help sneering when he saw these civil servants who usually looked like loyal ministers swearing to express their loyalty.
After the break? I'm afraid I'm going alone, so open the city gate and welcome Ashikaga Yoshichi!
Trailblazer?
Li Fangyuan looked at the guy with white beard and hair, and thought to himself that you are going to take your family and Xiruan to escape!
The corner of his mouth twitched, Li Fangyuan felt as if he was in a desperate situation, and the people around him...
His gaze finally stopped on Li Tun's face.
Li Tun's expression was tense, his fists were clenched tightly, but his legs were steady.
Li Fangyuan turned his gaze and saw a guard rushing in.
"Your Highness!"
Seeing the hesitation on this person's face, Li Fangyuan sighed in his heart: "Speak."
"Your Highness, someone has escaped. It is said that Ashikaga Yoshichi personally conquered the city, and there are also monks and soldiers. It is those monks and soldiers who are not afraid of death that broke through the city."
"Monks?"
Li Fangyuan took a deep breath, ignored the changing faces of those civil servants, and ordered: "Go, get ready, and leave immediately!"
"Come on!"
Li Fangyuan's eyes were cold and stern: "Summon the lonely guards and set off immediately!"
At this time, Li Fangyuan is not at ease about the eagle guards or other guards, only his personal guards can do it.
Li Po's face remained unchanged, he knew that his father was the most vigilant and suspicious right now, and it was best to stay away.
And those civil servants all looked at each other in blank dismay, then bowed their heads in embarrassment and remained silent.
The convoy was ready soon, Li Fangyuan got on the car, and then accelerated out of the palace.
