Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Six: No Loss

Fourth update and three moments.

Five large ships approached the shore.

There were horns everywhere on the whistle tower of Egong Fort.

Ke Yang turned over and sat up, and the noisy steps outside the tent and shouting made him shocked.

broken.

I am really afraid of anything I come to. It seems that the news about King Ning is very accurate. You don’t need to ask that the Western Zhou army is here.

He grabbed the armor and put it on his body, and walked out of the tent with a long spear.

The archers and defenses in Egong Castle were all ready. Seeing this scene, his panic made him feel a little relieved.

Zhu Sixi, the commander of the Egong Castle, came to Ke Yang with two axes.

"General Ke, the Western Zhou army is indeed here."

Ke Yang nodded.

“Have you investigated how many people there are?”

"Report to the general, the enemy is disembarking the ship, and it is roughly estimated that there are no less than four thousand people. In the fortifications outside the fortress, the archer trap and horse pit are ready."

While talking, the two of them had already stepped on a chariot. This was the chariot used for command. It was not as high as the sentry tower, but you could see the situation on the shore below when you sat on it.

"The hot oil burned, and after the first wave of landing in the enemy was annihilated, the shooter climbed the mountain from the flank."

Zhu Sixi grinned, rubbed his two axes, and was eager to try.

"General Ke is in charge, I want to go up to the city wall to kill the enemy!"

Ke Yang waved his hand, and Zhu Sixi and his people ran towards the city.

The Western Zhou army, which was suppressed by Wuwu outside the city, rushed towards Egong Fortress. It was organized closely and did not move quickly, but it was very brave. In front of the fortifications, waves of people were shot and killed.

However, the Western Zhou army siege behind seemed to be careless, and walked around their robes and continued forward. Several of them were not covered with armor and were bare-handed, running like flying with heavy chains on their backs.

Ke Yang stood up and found through the firelight that there was a huge iron roller behind these shirtless enemy troops. As the iron roller fell, the archer was smashed to pieces wherever the fortification passed.

The person who followed behind directly killed the injured shooter, which tore a hole in the fortifications and more Western Zhou soldiers rushed over.

One of the shirtless Western Zhou soldiers in front fell and someone immediately made up for the position, which would definitely not affect the speed of progress.

By advancing like this, the shooters in the fortification were affected. The shooters were to block the enemy's speed of travel, and they were attacking medium and long range, and they did not have the advantage at all when fighting at close range.

In an instant, eight or nine out of ten shots in front of them were lost, and the number of casualties in the Western Zhou army was not large, nor did they suppress the speed of advancement.

Ke Yang grabbed the flag and saw sweat on his palms. These Western Zhou soldiers were crazy and were completely fearless of death. They were just trying to get their lives up to it. This kind of momentum had the upper hand.

The cloud ladder siege equipment behind had been transported over, and a crash at the end was pushed over quickly.

Ke Yang stood up, stepped on the seat of the chariot, and raised a flag in his hand high.

"Prepare to slap the catapult, smash it hard!"

As the flag was waving, several commissars began to run towards the scattering aircraft team behind, and for a moment, huge stones began to fly overhead.

However, unless the enemy is dense and cannot avoid it, the chance of hitting a person is not high.

Ke Yang raised the second flag, and at this time the tip of his nose was already covered with sweat, and even arrows shot into the chariot beside him.

"Fallen oil and pour down, defend the city, and ignite the crash!"

As the order was conveyed, the huge oil cylinder was hung up by iron chains, and as it poured, screams came from below.

Ke Yang breathed a sigh of relief and then raised the third order flag.

"Light up the hot oil below, burn this general, and burn them to death!"

The fire burned overwhelmingly, and the Western Zhou army's crashed directly, but the car body also burned, and the iron sheet was wrapped around the impact of the wood, which burned the iron sheet so brightly.

Some Western Zhou troops hugged bundles of things and threw them towards the gate. Soon, they piled up like mountains in front of the gate. As the oil was pouring down, the fire instantly increased, and the entire gate of Egong Fort was surrounded by fire.

A team of Western Zhou troops in strange clothes rushed over, leaving holes in their eyes, leaving them fully armed, grabbed the ignited collision and hit the gate of Egong Fort.

Bang bang bang, with the impact, the gate of Egong Castle was shaking, and Ke Yang thought to himself that it was broken.

I just splashed oil and burned it with fire. The city gate was already fragile. Although it was wrapped with iron plates, the door bolts and the beams next to it were all made of wooden. The fire has not diminished at all. Why did the oil burn for so long?

"Quick, splash the door with water to stop the fire from spreading, and check why it burns so hard outside?"

After a moment, a messenger came back with a dark face, his sleeves were burned out of a big hole, and he knelt on one knee to report to Ke Yang.

"Report to General Ke, the Western Zhou army piled oil and wood in front of the gate. They lit the wood with us pouring oil. The gate was burning red and it looked like it was about to collapse."

Ke Yang knew, it was over.

The Egong Fort could not be defended, but today they would die in battle and these Western Zhou troops could not be released, otherwise they would be implicated, not to mention him, even their father would be implicated, and their son was just born, so they would not be able to escape the blame.

The spear poked hard, inserted it into the chariot, and turned over the horse.

"If you pass the order, ten thousand elite soldiers will intercept at the North Gate. Even if you die in battle, you cannot let any Western Zhou army come in. If you retreat, you will be killed!"

The commander scattered and Zhu Sixi rushed over, with an arrow inserted in his chest, and the blood was dyed red with his armor. I don’t know if it was his blood or the enemy’s blood.

"The city wall cannot be defended anymore. General Ke asked to retreat and command 10,000 elite troops to resist. I will lead people to fight to the death in Egong Castle."

After saying this, several deputy generals surrounded him, and everyone knew Ke Yang's identity. The third son of the Ke family was the most proud son of General Ke Xudong and also carried the future of the Ke family.

Zhu Sixi waved his hand, and several deputy generals rushed over and pulled Ke Yang to run towards the north gate. Ten thousand elite soldiers could not be stationed in Egong Fort.

The Western Zhou soldiers launched such a large-scale attack because they had investigated the situation of the garrison here. I guess they didn't expect that they would suddenly send 10,000 elite troops tonight. Otherwise, the deer king would not be able to afford such a tactic of arguing.

The north gate was closed, and Zhu Sixi broke the arrow on his chest, raised the axe and his eyes were red.

"Behind me is the land of the Tang Dynasty. Our wives, children, and our children are waiting for us to protect us. We cannot let these southern barbarians of the Western Zhou Dynasty come in. If you are the man, just follow me and kill one without compensation. Kill two and earn one, kill one!"

"kill!

kill!

kill!"

The shouts shook the Egong Fort, and with a loud bang, the city gate collapsed. As the car crashed, sparks splashed everywhere, oil cylinders, food trucks, forage and even large tents were ignited in an instant.

Zhu Sixi held two axes and shouted and rushed towards the Western Zhou army. He opened his bows left and right. Four or five people beside him were chopped down. The deputy generals beside him rushed up like crazy.

Hands-to-hand combat is the cruelest side on the battlefield. At this time, there is no way to arrange troops and formations. There is no structure. They are all fighting based on instinct.

If these Western Zhou army were not afraid of death when siege the city, then the soldiers and generals of Egong Castle are trapped beasts, crazy trapped beasts.

The battle situation was tense for a while, and a large number of Western Zhou troops could not enter. Most of the first batch of those who rushed into Egong Fort were killed. However, the number of Western Zhou troops was too large. One group of soldiers was killed, and the other group rushed in.

Zhu Sixi now had a knife on his leg, looked at the person who was pouring in, with a smile on his face, spat a mouthful of blood, and shouted with all his strength:

"I will be loyal to the Tang Dynasty and will never regret death on the battlefield! Kill!"

Then he rushed towards the Western Zhou army.

Ke Yang was already on the horse at this time. He brought the 10,000 elite soldiers here, and was directly sent by his father, so he was naturally loyal to him.

Ke Yang held up the horizontal knife, looked at the battle situation below, and gritted his teeth.

"The left and right vanguards, detour from both sides of Egong Fort, cut off the Western Zhou army in half, and encircle the enemy troops rushing out from the middle, kill!"

With a command, two men and horses rushed along two winding paths and quickly towards the shore below. Although the road was narrow and dense, they were familiar after all, and the speed was not slow. They successfully surrounded them in a short while.

Some of the Western Zhou army were intercepted in Egong Fort and some were blocked on the shore. Some cavalry carrying special spears were standing in front, hanging on the side of the horse's belly, and rushed towards the Western Zhou army's team.

Like candied haws, they stringed up a string of corpses, then threw away the corpse on the spear, and rode their horses and turned around and rushed to the formation twice.

Of course, there were also many cavalrymen who rushed forward, with their horses cut off their legs and people falling down. However, the cavalry behind them had no control. At this time, they were rushing forward, and only those who were killed and injured in front did not sacrifice their lives in vain.

However, there were too many Western Zhou troops, and at this time there were still people jumping off the ship. The infantry team behind the cavalry had arrived. In an instant, the two sides bit each other and fought hard to separate.

Whether it was the Western Zhou army or the Tang army, there were many people killed and injured, and corpses covered the land by the river.

At this time, the Egong Castle was even more tragic.

Zhu Sixi's axe flew up and down, and the Western Zhou army around him began to deliberately avoid it. For a time, the Western Zhou soldiers around Zhu Sixi suffered heavy losses, and more Egong Fort defenders gathered around him.

Everyone knows that the fort is there, and now that Goshen Castle is beaten like this, there is no good end to survive.

If you die in battle, you can still get pensions at home and you can also bear the reputation of brave death. Otherwise, the word "defeat" will ruin everything, so these people will fight with Zhu Sixi in an extremely tragic way.

But at this moment, Zhu Sixi was tired.

He was really tired, his mouth had cracked, his arms were all dominated by inertia, and the speed of his two axes dancing continued to slow down.

The deputy generals and guards beside him also kept falling down, but at the gap in the south gate, the Western Zhou soldiers were still pouring in.

A wave of people continued to rush over, and a general holding a long sword waved at Zhu Sixi.

Zhu Sixi held an axe in his left hand to resist, but the knife directly slashed his wrist. Although the axe broke with his body, he still flew out and chopped onto the head of a Western Zhou soldier. The Western Zhou soldier knelt directly on the ground and his brain burst.

Several Western Zhou soldiers rushed up and surrounded Zhu Sixi, and stabbed him with a few long swords and spears in front and behind.

These Western Zhou soldiers quickly retreated, and even the chief general retreated a few steps.

Zhu Sixi had no strength. The big axe in his right hand supported his body, knelt on the ground with one knee, and the spears and big swords in front and behind supported the ground.

Blood flowed down from the corner of his lips. He wanted to look back and see if the North Gate was fine, but he could no longer move.

Looking at the bodies of Western Zhou soldiers on the ground, Zhu Sixi smiled at the corner of his lips.

"Not losing money"
