Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 784: Now let me think about it, rain and snow

ps: Chapter 2, I am embarrassed to ask for a monthly pass.

Zhixiao felt that her martial arts luck was prosperous today.

Wei's salt boat successfully arrived at the river outside Wenxian County, and took advantage of the dim light in the evening to approach the river bank. At this time, the fishing boat had already left, and they thought they would not be detected, but Zhao's sentry spotted them immediately. The boat patrolling by the river lit a thick smoke of artemisia, and notified the shore that there was an abnormality here. Zhishi asked the boatman to ram the patrol boat, and then accelerated the speed of landing.

They directly let the boat rush onto the broad river beach. It is not that they have never fought in the water. They and the Wei family are the vanguard of the attack on the Qin state. In addition to the pontoon bridge, there are also boats that land directly in the west of the river, although no matter which time, None of them are as spectacular as Duke Mu of Qin's "Battle of Rafting".

Therefore, the Zhishi Hexi soldiers were very skillful in disembarking and fighting the incoming Zhao army. Wenxian, as his younger brother Zhiyao guessed, was extremely empty. The soldiers and soldiers who came here were all old soldiers and soldiers, and the resistance was not established. The sparse crossbow machine could not reach it. Zhishi's hundreds of dense bows and arrows, relying on the advantage of long-range firepower, they quickly rushed to the river bank and advanced step by step.

Although Zhao Jun was at a disadvantage, they were not defeated. They had been trying to kill Zhi Jun until they found that there was no building around the port as a bunker, so they quickened their pace and ran into the city.

With the rise of the suspension bridge, Zhi Xiao knew that he had won the victory of landing, and the following ships arrived one after another. The group of a division was trying to attack this empty defense city. This is the main city of Zhao's family. If it can be captured, it will be meaningful. extraordinary.

However, after starting the attack, Zhi Xiao only felt that even though it was empty, Wen County's resistance was still fierce, not inferior to Jinyang and the eldest son.

Zhao's crossbow machine can cause more damage to the attackers when defending the city. The biggest threat to them is the three catapults installed on each city wall. Rubble and bricks are constantly thrown out, and they will be killed and injured if they are not careful. There were so many people that Zhixiao did not dare to approach within 200 paces. He looked at this city full of fangs and claws, unable to do anything, although the momentum was huge, but Wen County could be said to be solid, and the doctors and women inside were actually worried for half the night.

The Wenxian city wall in the dark is like a towering mountain range. If you want to break through, you must pay the price of blood. If you attack a corner, Zhixiao is expected to lose a thousand people, maybe more. Of course, this is not feasible.

So Zhixiao was not in a hurry. He let some people stay by the river, while others circled the city to find weak points, such as Watergate. After finding it, the main attack direction was shifted to the water gate to the south: this is the only way for the small boats in the city to go to the port and to the big river.

The city probably did not expect an enemy to attack the main town of the Zhao family. Although many people were recruited to go to the city head, it was a little chaotic, not like a well-organized defense at all.

Zhi Xiao believes that with his luck tonight, he might be able to break through the fragile water gate in front of him, enter the city, and see the beauty of the Zhao family.

However, just as he asked the soldiers to take a good posture and was about to use their shields to block the rubble thrown by the city head, women, children, old and weak, and went to open the water gate, he heard a burst of exclamations from behind the battle!

The wind blew wildly from the east, causing the wind and sand to confuse the eyes. Zhixiao thought that was the reason for the confusion, but the wind soon stopped, but the noise did not stop, and people kept subconsciously shaking their heads.

He also went too far, wanting to reprimand and serious military discipline.

However, I saw that far, far away, maybe ten or twenty miles away, there were fire dragons one after another.

There is a large army, and no matter how optimistic Ren Zhixiao is, he does not believe that it is the army sent by the Qi people after defeating the Zhao family. This army lit the torches of the night march and stretched out on the plain like a snake, as if the dark sky was also burning!

It looks like, like a huge burning black bird

Nearby, the identity of the army has been exposed.

"woo"

The low sound of the horn suddenly came from hundreds of paces away. With the torches of his own side and the city head, Zhixiao saw the fierce iron-hoofed beast stepping out of the night. The horse's head was densely packed, and on the horse's shoulders were the knights who controlled the saddles. , they are either holding spears, or pulling light bows, or swinging iron blades around the head.

Three neat rows of cavalry, all dressed in fine leather armor and small caps. It's not just a squad of scouts, it's an army. They are horse-bit, silent, and only reveal their whereabouts when they approach within 200 paces.

Three two one, with three short horns, the cavalry accelerated and began to charge this way

And the earth began to tremble

Zhixiao felt that the high city wall in front of him, and even the whole world he knew, was trembling, trembling in his heart, trembling in his liver, trembling in his heart.

He has no merits and careers to catch up with his younger brother, and let his father praise his pride once, because he has heard of the terribleness of Zhao's cavalry. The mere two to three thousand people under his command couldn't stand Zhao Qiyi Chong at all! As long as a thousand cavalry came to trample it, the soldiers would definitely collapse! At that time, under the attack of the Zhao army behind and the guards in the city, I am afraid that the entire army will be wiped out.

escape, escape!

A voice in his heart spoke to him.

Zhixiao involuntarily grabbed the horse's whip, beat the horses, and drove them to escape from death!

"Retreat, retreat, go to the river, get on the boat and leave!"

The horse ran wildly on four legs, the knight lowered his body, the spear in his hand was flattened, the bow and arrow were drawn into a half-moon, and the ring-head knife was slanted down, ready to meet the baptism of blood.

There was no need for Zhixiao to give an order, the soldiers who had already formed a queue began to automatically disintegrate and collapse, as thousands of Zhao's cavalry roared, and when the sound of horses' hooves resounded through the sky, they overcame the cheers from the top of the city and overcame the distant Zhao army's marching gold. With the sound of the drums, the fears in the hearts of these guards all burst out.

But there were also some people who didn't react at all, their legs and feet didn't obey their commands, and they couldn't lift it up like they were filled with lead. They stood in front of the wall and could only use their bodies to meet the violent impact.

The cavalry swept in like thunder, and the next moment, the horses collided with people, knocking out the gap, and the corpses were scattered all over the place in an instant. The injured soldiers and the horses that stumbled and fell were struggling and screaming desperately. It was as if the fragile colored glass was smashed to pieces by the iron hammer that slammed into it!

Those who responded slowly became scapegoats, while the rest began frantically jumping over the gully, crossing the small river flowing out of Wenxian Water Gate, and under the leadership of Zhi Xiao, they fled to the big river.

The people behind him shouted that the horse neighed, but they didn't go far. Instead, they were getting closer. Zhi Xiao knew that his soldiers were constantly being harvested by the cavalry that rushed in like a tide. They were only taking advantage of the night, rolling on the ground. Escape to the port where the ship is moored.

It's about midnight after the battle, and it's probably the third watch. Although the night boat is very dangerous, it's better than being a ghost under the hoof!

Looking at the sparsely defeated soldiers, Zhi Xiao sighed secretly, feeling extremely depressed. He originally came to Wen County with longing, but he met Zhao Jun who was assisting him. He is satisfied that he can bring a thousand people on board this time. I am afraid that during the Battle of Pi, the Jin army will kill each other in order to compete for boarding.

Before you know it, the sky started to rain again, the raindrops got bigger and bigger, and gradually turned into hail the size of your little finger! One after another, it looked like a sky full of snowflakes.

This is the usual weather in June and July, but it made Zhi Xiao and his troopers suffer. Of course, the ground becomes slippery and difficult to walk, and the speed of the rear chasers will also increase, at least without the need for Worry about the cavalry.

There was a glimmer of hope in Zhi Xiao's heart.

However, after waiting for a while, Zhi Xiao, who arrived at the riverside port, was stunned. They didn't even have the chance to kill each other and board the ship, because the ship moored at the Wenxian port had disappeared!

The more than 100 people who were left behind were embarrassed, and the commander of the **** came over with a sad face and complained: "Gentleman, Lu Xing from Wei's family just arrived by boat, and for some reason, he couldn't help but say that he drove our remaining guards off the boat, and took the fleet to go there. East is gone!"

"I've been there in the past, Yang Liu Yiyi, now I'm thinking about it, the rain and snow are really suitable for the occasion." Feeling the coolness brought by the small hailstones, Zhao Wuxi refused to dress up like the soldiers, so as to encourage them to speed up Instead of rushing away and running under the tree to avoid ~www.wuxiahere.com~ 20,000 troops are behind, the cavalry will go ahead and repel those who touch Zhao's inverse scales. Thousands of people can't leave, he can raise his head to see him, so Zhao Wuxi is not worried at all, but this group of troops will be bad if they catch a cold in the wild.

He asked the herald to shout loudly: "Wen County is right in front! We are waiting for the brothers Kun, the eaves that shelter from the wind and the rain, the sweet and sour slurry, and the warm and dry bedding!" The woman on the bed!" It was Tian Ben who roared, many people laughed out loud, and then burst into tears.

"Home!" Although many people's homes are not in Wenxian County, arriving here is equivalent to the end of a four-month journey. The men from all over the Zhao's territory had sour eyes for a while, and when they left Maimiao Qingqing, the corn was almost ripe when they came, and they also had the extravagant hope that they would never fight and live a good life like this.

"Yes, I'm waiting for home."

Wu Xie also sighed with emotion. Mr. Dongpo of later generations said that this place of peace of mind is my hometown, so that he, a person who has experienced past and present life and has a heart that is full of scars, is in the city, quietly waiting for him to return.

He is finally home again!
