Chapter five hundred and ninety seventh

"What a beast!" Lu Jiang saw a Wu Yue knight and waved his knife to look at the head of an old man, and was so angry that he cursed.

"Shoot the arrows, don't let the thieves of Wu and Yue approach the people!"

"Stay!"

A rain of arrows suddenly shot out from the top of the city to prevent the Wu Yue soldiers from approaching, hoping to disconnect the Wu Yue soldiers from the people for a distance.

I saw thousands of archers shooting arrows back and forth on the city wall, which were densely packed, twice as many as usual.

These archers stand very far and wide when defending the city, there will be a certain gap for easy space use. However, in order to save people, they are racing against time to avoid the people under the city being killed. Therefore, the distance between standing is reduced and the rain of arrows is even more dense.

"Open the city gate quickly, we are the Tang people, save us."

"Help"

The people under the city were calling for help, and they were already scared and cried.

At this time, the two city gates of Renhe Gate and Dehua Gate opened, and cavalry and infantry rushed out of the city.

The cavalry rushed towards the Wu Yue soldiers in front, and some armored soldiers formed a large sword array, a spear array, and a shield array, which was to block the Wu Yue soldiers' approach.

Some soldiers came forward to cover, helped these people, and helped them enter the city quickly.

"Kill"

Under the leadership of Ma Xiong, the cavalry of the Tang army rushed forward with a thunderous momentum. The soldiers on horseback were cold and cold, shining in the sun, and the fast horse ran and collided with the Wu and Yue cavalry.

This time, there was a frontal battle on the ground, and both sides each invested two thousand cavalry to collide and fight.

Because there are few war horses in the south, unlike the north where tens of thousands of cavalry, the Liao Kingdom often goes south with 100,000 cavalry. In the south of the Yangtze River, thousands of cavalry are already the upper limit. Most war horses are purchased from the north and the Western Regions, and war horses are rarely raised in the local area.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

"Dangdangdangdang!"

The sound of the collision of war horses, the confrontation of weapons, and the swords and guns slashing together, making mixed sounds.

Suddenly, the war horses neighed, the soldiers roared, the sword lights and sword shadows, the blood splattered, the scene was fierce

In the distance behind, Shen Chengli and Ding Deyu were watching and found that the Tang army had opened the city gate and were rescuing the people.

Ding Deyu nodded and said, "These Tang army generals are quite conscientious and kind, and are respectable opponents."

It was a bit out of place for him to express his praise at this time, but this was also Ding Deyu's personality.

Because he came from the Song generals in the north, and after being a general in his family for generations, he had a sense of arrogance in his heart and a sense of courage and courage in the north. Therefore, he had a lot of complaints about using the people to cover the siege this time, and he even looked down on the Wu Yue counselors' proposal.

But at this time, the Tang army really opened the city gate and was even rescuing the people. They were willing to give up the fighting method of some soldiers outside the city and exchanging their lives for life. This way of saving people was quite respectful.

"Kill me, hurry up and rush into the city and destroy the Tang army!"

"Get into Runzhou City!"

The Dutou and Du Yuhou of Wu and Yue soldiers began to shout, commanding the soldiers to take advantage of this opportunity to rush to the city gate and take advantage of the chaos to enter the city.

This is their initial plan!

Although the methods of using the people to cover the siege are somewhat despicable, because the two armies are confronting each other, they use all means and do everything they can. Therefore, many Wu and Yue soldiers are full of hatred against the Tang people. They have too many robes to die in battle under the city, and the accumulation of old sorrows and new hatred has blinded their rationality.

They no longer think about whether this method is glorious. As long as they can break the city gate and get benefits, no one will really care. Even when they massacred the backward unarmed innocent people, they did not have any mercy.

Some old men and women were shot to death by arrows, or were cut off their heads by cavalry with sabers, cut off their arms, and blood was sprayed on the ground, screaming endlessly, but the Wu and Yue soldiers had cold eyes and were indifferent, and continued to rush forward. The horses stepped on the bodies of the people and rushed towards the oncoming Tang cavalry.

The troops and horses of both sides fought at the city, with close contacts on a large scale, close combat, weapons fighting, and war horses collided.

Cavalry and cavalry are fighting, infantry and infantry are fighting. Sometimes cavalry will rush into the infantry's square formation, and infantry will stab the horse's belly with long spears to attack the knights, and a melee will begin.

The Tang army sent a total of 4,000 troops to block the Wuyue army under the city, delaying time, and seeking time for the Dehua Gate and Renhe Gate to rescue the people into the city.

It has to be said that the targets of the Tang army and the Wu Yue soldiers were just opposite. One side wanted to prevent the Wu Yue soldiers from approaching the city gate, and the other side wanted to enter the city as soon as possible. Their respective commanders were watching and all showed the spirit of looking at death. The battle was very fierce.

Some people slashed their opponents to the ground with one knife one second, and the next second, they were pierced by the enemy soldiers behind them, and they were unwilling to die there.

The knights on the horse used war horses to storm, slashed and killed several enemy soldiers, and were likely to be thrown off the horse. They cut their throats with daggers, or were stabbed by a spear.

This kind of scene is very common, and the battles are played everywhere.

At the same time, the people flocked into the city gate one after another, and many people were still crying. Some children were crying in fear, and the old people's crying and howlings of women were mixed in the city.

At least seven or eight hundred people have been rescued into the city gate.

Standing at the gate of the city, Dutou was responsible for managing the order and shouted: "Don't worry, don't be crowded, you are already safe, there will be no danger in entering the city."

"Everyone slow down, don't crowd each other, line up to enter the city and be inspected."

Duyu Marquis Zhao Sheng and Dutou, the officers and soldiers were constantly appeaseing the people. Some of them lived after the disaster, hugged their heads and cried under the wall: "My wife was killed and died outside."

Some people cried with joy, ecstatic about their ability to survive: "I was not killed, I was saved."

"Yes, we are blessed and happy, thanks to the soldiers guarding the city treat us as human beings!"

"These Wu and Yue soldiers are too bad. They simply don't treat us Tang people as humans."

These people are talking about it.

Some officers and soldiers came forward to distribute food to these people, check their injuries, check their identities, etc., so as to avoid scouts from getting mixed up.

When a man approached the defender soldiers, he suddenly pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed directly into the hearts of the defender soldiers.

"Puff!"

Blood suddenly appeared.

Moreover, not only the actions of some people, but also many men suddenly changed their faces and used weapons hidden on them to attack them.

They used the location inside the city gate with a narrow environment to stab some officers and soldiers with daggers, and added spears and knives from the officers and soldiers, and began to kill the city guards at the city gate.

This incident immediately made everyone panic. Some women, children and the elderly did not expect that there were spies from Wu Yue who were hiding beside them, and they wanted to seize the city gate in the chaos.

“Ahhh”

Screams came out, chaos began to spread, and some innocent people were affected and killed on the ground.

Most of the people ran around the city, while some Wu Yue spies and dead soldiers, carrying swords, interspersed among the crowd as cover, with fierce eyes, rushed towards the defenders at the city gate and at the city gate.

Some spies even emitted arrows to send signals to the Wu Yue army outside the city.

"No, there are spies from Wu Yue inside!"

One Dutou immediately ran up the city tower and conveyed the news of the incident to General Lu Jiang and Su Chen on the city tower in time.

"General Lu is not doing well. These people are mixed with spies from Wu and Yue. They took advantage of the chaos to kill and seize some weapons. They are controlling the city gate and connecting with the Wu and Yue army outside the city."

Lu Jiang's face changed and she said in a lost voice: "What? Then why don't you stop it quickly."

"There is a Du Yuhou who is encircling and suppressing him!"

General Lu personally picked up the long-handled big ring knife and said to Su Chen: "It is my order to let the people enter the city. I want to go in person to eliminate the hidden dangers. Su Jianjun, you are here to command."

Su Chen saw that Lu Jiang's anger and unwillingness were also a little guilty, because he ordered the people to be welcomed and allowed the people to enter the city. Now there are some spies among the people, taking the opportunity to cause trouble. This matter is of great importance. Once the city gate cannot be closed, a large number of Wu Yue soldiers will take the opportunity to flood the city gate, which will cause the city gate to fall.

Therefore, Lu Jiang has to deal with it personally so that she can feel at ease!

At this time, Su Chen did not hesitate or persuade, but nodded and said, "General Lu, don't worry, leave this place to me."
