Chapter 1612:
Under the city of Gusu
Du Yu stroked the bronze sword in his arms with his dull palms, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. Today's wind howled more than last night. Tens of thousands of armored men gathered here, with black-faced red-edged flags in the cold weather.
The wind was blowing, and each soldier prepared a phalanx under the city. There was a smell of gunpowder smoke all around. The sound of war drums resounded like thunder, and a chilling atmosphere filled the sky and the earth.
The walls of Gusu City are dozens of feet high! Behind the wall can accommodate 100,000 soldiers running back and forth on the city wall. It can be said that the defense of Gusu City cannot be underestimated. Today, there are only 10,000 soldiers in the city! In order to deal with this situation,
The prince Zhu Biao, who is both civil and military, is standing on the wall, staring at the tens of thousands of people under the city with a pair of tiger eyes. The coldness in his eyes is only increasing. There are less than 20,000 defenders in the city! Although there is geography, Zhu Biao
Biao knew that the 10,000 troops and horses in his hands would never be able to withstand Du Yu's attack.
So Zhu Biao recruited old men as old as sixty years old and young men as young as eleven or twelve years old overnight, and under the training of several captains, they organized their troops and trained their weapons! Zhu Biao didn't have much hope for them, but
I want them to move the rolling rocks and thunderwood during the war! This will increase the probability of guarding Gusu.
"Soldiers under Gusu City, listen! Open the city gates quickly and surrender! Otherwise, after the city is broken, anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!" Liu Zhi rode a war horse, holding a spear in his hand, with a cold and handsome look in his eyes like a tiger.
.
Zhu Biao did not take it seriously, and immediately shouted: "Soldiers! Honorable men! Behind us is the temple that has been the home of the Wu Kingdom for decades. If we retreat, the ancestral temple will be destroyed! We will also become
Prisoners of others! Are you willing?"
"I don't want to! I don't want to!" Several close followers behind Zhu Biao suddenly shouted loudly, but Du Yu's 70,000 troops were pressing into the territory, so how could Zhu Biao's few words be enough to encourage him? Although the soldiers wanted to open their mouths and shout, they couldn't.
Looking at the dark enemy troops below the city, I felt the pressure in my eyes and the worry in my heart.
Standing next to Zhu Biao were Zhu Houcong, Zhu Yujian, Zhu Youjian, Zhu Youxiao, Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Qiyu, and Zhu Shuzhen! At this time, they were all encouraged by Zhu Biao to go to the city to defend the country! Everyone was wearing golden armor.
, eyes full of solemnity.
Seeing that his words could not inspire his soldiers, Zhu Biao looked at Du Yu's tens of thousands of troops and suddenly shouted: "You are all the salary of the food family! How can you work for the enemy!"
"No!" Liu Zhi suddenly shouted, and immediately snorted: "How can a rebellious minister like Zhu Yuanzhang have the dignity to be the king! The former king Fu Chai died in the battle! Zhu Yuanzhang surrounded him without saving him! He should have made Fu Chai's son the king! But instead
He is betraying his master and standing on his own! He who carried out the Gao clan's action on behalf of the Qi Dynasty should be punished for his crime. Now Zhu Yuanzhang has committed an unjust act! He attacked Sun Yue wantonly and started a war without authorization! My king has ordered the emperor to attack the rebellious ministers! Return Fu Chai's son.
, One is to obey the order of the emperor! This is loyalty! The other is to strangle the rebellious sons of the former friendly country! This is righteousness! Such a loyal and righteous teacher! If you don’t surrender quickly, follow us to Luoyang to plead guilty to the emperor of Zhou!
"
Liu Zhi's voice was like thunder! His words were like swords! Every word hurt the hearts of the enemy. The old and young children summoned by Zhu Biao were not satisfied with Zhu Yuanzhang's actions! And those old men who were nearly sixty years old, but
Witnesses of the Wu State Revolution, although Zhu Yuanzhang implemented the policy of obscuring the people, the facts are the facts. These old guys can survive in these troubled times! Which one has not served in the military! They are all the best among the best. Now listen to
Hearing Liu Zhi's words, everyone looked questioning.
"How outrageous!" Zhu Biao shouted suddenly, pulled out the sword in his arms, and shouted: "Fire the arrow! Quickly let me shoot the arrow to kill this beast!"
At this time, Zhu Biao was still too immature and was helpless in the face of the cunning Liu Zhi.
But Liu Zhi was well prepared. He turned his horse's head suddenly and ran away immediately. He couldn't hide the smile in his eyes! Zhu Biao became angry from embarrassment, which meant that the boy had no choice.
Du Yu stroked his beard, looked at Liu Zhi who was running away, and said with emotion: "This boy is as good as General Feng Yifeng!"
"General, give the order to attack the city!" Huang Feihu rode a black horse to Du Yu's side and said solemnly.
Du Yu stroked his gray beard and said calmly: "Attack the city!"
"Charge!" Several war flags in the air fluttered in the wind, and the generals in front of the formation suddenly shouted hysterically. The sound resounded in all directions like a loud bell. Huang Feihu and other generals rushed towards Gusu City in unison.
The stone wall made of stone bricks under the city wall was covered with stains of blood. You could smell the blood from a distance and the cold wind blew.
Zhu Biao suddenly panicked, staring ahead with an embarrassed face as he continued to charge tens of thousands of troops! His brows furrowed, Zhu Biao suddenly waved his hand and shouted: "Fire the arrow! Quick... let me fire the arrow! Block the enemy! Zhu Youjian,
"Zhu Youxiao"
"The general is here!" I heard a greeting, and two young generals wearing Wu armor and holding bronze swords walked out. I saw that they were seven feet long. Under the blowing of the cold wind, the cloaks behind them rustled.
, which actually added seven points of heroism. A pair of black eyes looked at Zhu Biao with a respectful expression.
"Guard the city gate! You must not lose it. If the city is lost, the king's inheritance will be difficult to protect!" Zhu Biao looked embarrassed, his palms were full of sweat. He had never defended the city! This important task could only fall on a few of them.
"No!" Zhu Youjian and Zhu Youxiao said softly without saying much, which was an answer to Zhu Biao. However, looking at the dark enemy troops in front of them, which were several times more than their own, there was no feeling in their hearts.
After reaching the bottom, there was nothing he could do now. He stared ahead and said coldly: "Archers, prepare!"
"Lemu prepare!"
The cooperation between the two brothers Zhu Youjian and Zhu Youxiao is exactly the same. It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang did not teach them military skills in peacetime! But war is not a study after all! The two of them can't just arrange their troops and set up formations to adapt to changes.
"Boooooo...woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooozesssdys s ings .
charge!"
"Kill..." The soldiers under the city wall were not afraid of death and rushed straight to the front, but their speed was extremely fast.
"Fire the arrow!" Zhu Youjian shouted suddenly.
"Swish swish... swish swish... swish swish...!"
"Thumping...ahhhhhh!" Following several screams, charging soldiers continued to fall under the city.
Chapter completed!
