Chapter 353
Wu Guang silently calculated the time. By the time Li Qi's army had left Yancheng for more than an hour, he felt that it was almost time. Read the full text. Wu Guang pulled out the Yanyue Sword stuck in the ground, waved his arm, and the Yanyue Sword transformed into a spirit. At the same time, his body was also covered with spiritual armor.
There was no need to say anything, just by looking at him he knew he was about to fight. The soldiers of the Pingyuan Army who were hidden in the woods stood up one after another, all their eyes focused on Wu Guang. Wu Guang waved to Zhan Hu, called the latter to his side, and said: "There are not many defenders in Yancheng now. You and I should divide our troops into two groups, making it difficult for the enemy to take care of both the head and tail. I will mainly attack the east of the city, and you will mainly attack. In the south of the city, no matter which side of us attacks the city first, we will immediately want to get closer to the other side and help them open the city gate, General Zhanhu, do you have any objections?"
Zhan Hu shook his head and said in a stiff voice: "No."
"Okay, let's do it!" Wu Guang and Zhan Hu have the same official rank, but Zhan Hu can only be regarded as a rare warrior, but Wu Guang is born with a leadership temperament. When the two are together, he naturally becomes the leader.
After finishing with Zhan Hu, Wu Guang put the spiritual sword in his hand behind him, turned around, looked at the Pingyuan Army soldiers behind him, and said in a loud voice: "Our army fought all the way from Tianyuan County to Yancheng, its purpose is to eliminate the rebels , return to my gale, now, the nest of rebellion is ahead. All our soldiers should abandon life and death and fight bloody. If the battle fails today, you and I will meet each other in Jiuquan. If the battle succeeds, you and I will. Brother, we can open the city to welcome you to the capital, restore the Feng Kingdom, and eradicate the national traitors, which is just around the corner!"
Hearing this, all the soldiers looked at each other in confusion. One of the corps commanders bravely asked: "General Wu Guang, sir...hasn't my lord already..."
"Haha——" Wu Guang raised his head and laughed, and said proudly: "To say that the Lord is seriously injured and died is just a trick of the Lord. The Lord is not only alive now, but also alive and well. At this time, it is time to command the main force of our army and the enemy's army. Fighting!"
"Ah?" As soon as these words came out, the officers and soldiers of the Pingyuan Army were stunned and couldn't recover for a long time. The regiment commander who had just asked the question couldn't believe his ears and asked uncertainly: "General Wu Guang is saying that your Excellency... Your Excellency is not dead?"
"Of course!" Wu Guang nodded heavily, looked around at everyone, and said, "As long as our army successfully enters the city, we can meet you in the city!"
Wow - this time all the soldiers heard it clearly and understood it. The 20,000 soldiers who were listless just now immediately became energetic, their faces were radiant, their eyes were brighter, and they all rubbed their fists and palms. , each copying weapons, as long as Wu Guang gives an order, he can rush out immediately.
This is the powerful and invisible role Tang Yin played in the army. When he is there, the Tianyuan Army officers and soldiers have a backbone, and people can move forward bravely without fear of life and death. But if he is not there, the officers and soldiers are distracted and have no fighting spirit. People don't even know who they are fighting for, and What to fight for.
It can be said that the presence or absence of Tang Yin can make the Tianyuan Army look like two different armies in an instant.
Seeing that the fighting spirit of the soldiers was rising, Wu Guang's blood began to boil. He pointed the direction of Yancheng with his knife and said loudly: "The enemy has fallen into your trap, and Yancheng is vulnerable. Within half an hour, we will The general will take the capital and welcome you to the capital. In the future, you will be the new king of Feng Country, and we will also be the strongest legion in Feng Country and even the entire empire. Brothers, follow me!"
"kill--"
The soldiers were inspired by this, their adrenal gland secretions accelerated, and the pores all over their bodies were tightening. People followed Wu Guang's words and shouted to kill in unison.
Without further delay, Wu Guang shouted: "Come on me from the First Corps of the Pingyuan Army!" After speaking, he took the lead and ran out of the woods first.
Zhan Hu did not lag behind and shouted: "The second regiment is following me!" After saying that, he followed Wu Guang and rushed out of the forest.
The 20,000 plain troops led by Wu Guang and Zhan Hu rushed out of the woods like tigers descending the mountain and ran straight to Yancheng.
Now in Yancheng, there is a peaceful atmosphere in the city. There are not many defenders on the city walls. The soldiers have climbed down the city wall and are eating, drinking and chatting in their respective barracks. Ye Cheng is no exception. He is in his mansion. I ate and drank with a few confidants, and kept boasting and boasting, saying that Tang Yin died at his hands, and when rewards were given based on merit in the future, his contribution would be the greatest, and he would no longer be a lieutenant general. , he can definitely be promoted to general, or even great general.
The generals under him also responded one after another, showing great courtesy to Ye Cheng, and only asked him to support them when he became prosperous.
Being praised by his tribe, Ye Cheng became even more intoxicated. He drank more and more wine and became seventy or eighty percent drunk.
While Ye Cheng was still dreaming about his spring and autumn dreams, a soldier with crooked armor came hurriedly from outside. After seeing Ye Cheng, he fell to his knees with a plop and stammered: " General, General...General, something serious has happened. Many Tianyuan troops suddenly appeared outside the city. General, make a decision quickly!"
"Well?" Hearing this, Ye Cheng, instead of showing panic, actually smiled, tilted his head, looked at the soldier, and said, "Are you dazzled? The Tianyuan Army has obviously retreated, and General Li has also retreated. We went to hunt for them, how could they show up here? You should go back and take a closer look before you report!" After saying this, he pointed at the soldier's nose and said with a smile to the generals on the left and right: "That's true. A useless thing!”
"Haha——" The generals on both sides also laughed loudly.
They were laughing, and the soldier was about to cry. He said in a trembling voice: "General, my eyes are not blurry! The Tianyuan Army has indeed come to kill outside the East City and South City, and there are many of them. General, go to the East City and take a look. Bar!"
"I heard you farting here!" Ye Cheng didn't bother to pay attention to the soldier, raised his head to the door, and shouted: "Come here, get this thing who falsely reports military information out!"
Following Ye Cheng's words, two guards walked in quickly from outside the door. Without any explanation, they dragged the soldier out.
"General! General—"
"Huh!" Ye Cheng snorted coldly and said to the generals on his left and right: "It's really funny..."
Before he could say anything, he heard bursts of killing cries coming from the distance, and the waves of sound came one after another, each wave getting stronger than the last.
kindness? How is this going? Ye Cheng frowned and looked outside with confusion. Although he had already heard the cry of killing, at this time he still did not believe that it was the Tianyuan Army that was attacking the city.
At this moment, another soldier staggered into the hall from outside. This soldier's facial features were distorted. When he saw Ye Cheng, he screamed in a changed voice: "General, it's not good, Tianyuan Army." We are attacking the city from both sides of Dongcheng and Nancheng, and our army brothers can no longer resist it!"
"What?"
At this time, Ye Cheng was mostly sober and subconsciously stood up from the mat. The table in front of him was knocked over, and wine glasses, plates, bowls and chopsticks were scattered on the floor. The surrounding generals were also dumbfounded. They couldn't understand where the Tianyuan Army came from. Could it be that it fell from the world?
After staying for a while, Ye Cheng finally came back to his senses. He listened carefully. At this time, the shouts of killing from Dongcheng and Nancheng had become one. Ye Cheng was completely awakened from his drunkenness. He secretly thought in his heart. A cry: Oops! It seems that the capital has really been attacked by enemy troops!
He vomited and shouted: "Come here! Come quickly! Prepare your horses and get my weapons!"
Boom - Ye Cheng shouted, and the entire mansion was completely in chaos. The guards were running around in the courtyard, and people were shouting and neighing. It was so lively.
Outside the city, the Tianyuan Army commanded by Wu Guang and Zhan Hu had indeed begun to attack the city.
Although these two troops were both infantry, their charging speed was astonishingly fast. When the Peng soldiers on the tower discovered them, they were still two miles away. They waited for the Peng soldiers to run down the tower to warn their own soldiers before returning. When they were on the tower, the Tianyuan Army was only one mile away from Yancheng. By the time the Peng Army in the city ran up the city wall in a panic and prepared to fight, the 20,000 Pingyuan Army were already less than 200 meters away from the city wall. By the time the Peng Army in the city was ready, When the trebuchet was about to launch the boulder, the Pingyuan army had already reached the bottom of the city, and the trebuchet was completed and was of no use.
It is rare for the infantry to charge so fast. Standing under the city wall, looking down at the Tianyuan Army outside, most of the soldiers have thrown away their helmets and armor without a trace. Some are only wearing military uniforms, and some are wearing only military uniforms. They even took off their military uniforms and went into battle shirtless. There were no long weapons in their hands, only swords. There were no large siege weapons in the army, only ladders.
When the Tianyuan Army rushed to the city wall, the ladder was set up immediately, and the lightly armed Pingyuan Army swarmed up like ants. They saw everyone staring with blood-red eyes and holding swords in their mouths. They looked like wild beasts. When the battle began, Peng Bing was frightened by the appearance of Pingyuan Army soldiers.
"Attack! Attack immediately!" On the east wall, a soldier who looked like a captain shouted at the soldiers on the left and right. It's a pity that just as he shouted, a sharp sword flew up from the city and hit his chin. There was only a sound of pounce. The arrow shot into his chin, and the tip of the arrow poked out from the top of his head. Their leather helmets were shot through.
"Those who surrender will live! Those who resist will die without a burial place!"
A loud shout came from the city, and the person shouting was none other than Wu Guang. He threw away the bow and arrow in his hand, picked up the spiritual knife inserted beside him, and quickly climbed up the city along the nearest ladder to him.
The Pingyuan Army came so suddenly that even the fire oil was not prepared on the city, and there were very few defenders who rushed to the city after hearing the news. People could only use rolling logs and rocks to resist the Pingyuan Army's attack.
Scattered rolling logs and stone beatings are okay against ordinary soldiers, but they are insignificant when used against spiritual martial arts masters like Wu Guang.
After knocking off three rocks in a row, Wu Guang had climbed more than half of the way up the ladder. At this moment, he saw two Peng soldiers on the top of the city working together to carry a huge stone to hit him. He sneered and was confused? Slash out.
The dense spiritual blades instantly crushed the two soldiers on top of the city. The giant they were carrying could no longer be smashed down and rolled down on the top of the city.
