Turbulent Times Chapter 1442: Cui’s death
The surface of this folding umbrella is twice as big as that of ordinary umbrellas. It is also an auxiliary defensive weapon developed by the Far East Army Intelligence Office. It is used to reduce the impact force when jumping from a high place. The umbrella surface turned out to be extremely strong. At this time, a rain of arrows shot down from the city wall and hit the umbrella surface. After a burst of rain hitting plantains, the umbrella surface was damaged, but it was blocked by the thirteen killers. All the arrows fell on the ground, and the figures of the thirteen people flickered, and quickly disappeared into the night.
Not long after, people began to shout that Li Jing had died in battle and the city gate had been broken. The entire city of Boling County began to fall into chaos.
At the same time, at the city gate below, in less than a dozen breaths, more than 2,000 Boling County infantrymen guarding the city gate were killed by nearly 10,000 cavalry led by Xiong Kuohai, and the rest were far away. Fleeing, several generals of Boling County desperately mobilized their men to surround and kill the city gate, but Xiong Kuohai led nearly 10,000 elite cavalry to guard the city gate firmly until Wang Junlin outside the city. Command the army to enter the city one by one.
The city of Boling County is broken.

Cui Shenggang rode wildly, facing the strong wind, his hair was disheveled, and in the darkness of night, he didn't know how many soldiers and horses escaped after him. Looking back in a hurry, he could only see a torrent of torches rolling towards him in the distance , followed closely behind them.
He was leading people to arrest the killers and assassins in the city, to search and rescue his own children and grandchildren, how the city was broken, how Li Jing died or disappeared, they didn't know very well, so they felt defeated inexplicably .
Just before, although a large number of assassins appeared in the city, burned some food and grass, and poisoned most of their clansmen, they still felt that the city of Boling County was impregnable. There are hundreds of thousands of reinforcements outside the upper city. They can at least drag the Far Eastern Army to death and force them to return without success, but they never expected that the west gate was broken open in such a strange way.
When he got the news, the city was already in chaos, the generals could not be found, the generals could not find soldiers, fires were raging everywhere, and roaring and fighting were everywhere.
In the dark night, it is far away to attack the city
There is an endless stream of soldiers from the Eastern Army, and if there is God's help, they will quickly divide into three groups and attack the other three gates. After breaking through the city wall, they were cut into pieces by the chaos in the city, and then they were divided and surrounded. It was difficult to give any support to the three city gates. They couldn't hold on for long, and most of them were killed.
Including Cui Shenggang, all the generals of Boling County, after learning that Li Jing was dead and that Cui's ancestral house was almost wiped out, made a decisive decision and immediately led their own soldiers to the East City, even though they knew that the Far East Army was besieging the city. , There must be traps in deliberately setting aside the Eastern City as a way of life, and at this time they can only bite the bullet and break through. If they don't leave, they may die under the knife of some unknown soldier of the Far Eastern Army before dawn.
The generals at all levels hoisted their banners and rushed all the way to the east city, shouting to gather troops all the way. Finally, Cui Shenggang also fled to the east city. Follow him to flee to the east city.
There were several battles with the Far Eastern Army who were catching up or encountered along the way. Cui Shenggang led more than 7,000 people and finally rushed out of Boling County City before the east gate was closed.
"Ah!" With a scream, a soldier in front of him suddenly fell to the ground with a man and a horse. Cui Shenggang was shocked and said that there was an ambush ahead. On the ground, he only heard people yelling horses, but no one got up. Cui Shenggang suddenly realized, and shouted: "The front is full of horse traps. Flee to the north, where our reinforcements are."
Cui Shenggang didn't know the road or the wilderness, so he led his men and horses and turned to the north. At the end, the other part intercepted an arrow in front of them, obviously determined to win, and he would never be allowed to escape again.
Cui Shenggang reined in his horse sharply, and looked to the west, where it was pitch black, and he didn't know how many horse pits had been dug. The torrent of torches, like two sharp arrows, intercepted his vitals separately. Cui Shenggang was filled with grief and indignation. Suddenly he lifted the rein of the horse, drew his knife in his hand, and shouted: "I would rather die in battle than
Don't surrender, kill back! "
"Kill, kill, kill!" Hearing the responses one after another, Cui Shenggang felt relieved in his ears, thinking that the food, grass and military pay these years were not in vain, and the number of soldiers who escaped with them from the city was at least 6,000 Left and right, these men and horses may fight, maybe... they can even kill a way out.
Cui Shenggang yelled, knocked on the horse's belly, and led his men to meet the pursuer who was killing him in the middle without hesitation.
Wang Bodang's 10,000-horse Xiongwu Battalion followed closely behind, and Yuchi Jingde's 10,000-horse army was waiting outside the city. At this time, when the 20,000 men saw the remnant soldiers of Boling County rushing back like beasts, they all sneered secretly. The banner could not be displayed in the night, and because they were chasing in panic, they could not give orders with drums and music. The signal and semaphore commanded the army to surround the enemy army in a ring, spread out, and press down on the remnants of Boling County like a flood.
"Kill!"
There is still room for two arrows on both sides. Wang Bodang's army suddenly split again, turning into three arrows with one arrow. The wedge-shaped formation of the remnant army galloped past from both sides, turning around the flanks, galloping and shooting. The rain of arrows all over the sky was like a knife, constantly cutting down Cui Shenggang's troops. The more you cut it, the thinner it is.
"Kill kill kill!"
The eyes of the two sides were already red before the hand-to-hand combat. All the knights raised their sabers high, their buttocks off the saddle, and their feet straightened their stirrups, assuming a desperate fight.
The teams of the two sides collided abruptly, just like the sharp tip of a bow and arrow collided with a stepping arrow shot from a bed crossbow, and the tip of the bow and arrow was immediately blunt. The cavalry can only show its power in the charge. How much threat is an arrow that has lost its arrowhead?
The disparity in the strength of the two sides is too great. Nearly 20,000 troops from the Yuanle Army surrounded them, like huge circles of halos in the dark night, slowly gathering towards the middle, while the remnants of the Boling County army trapped in the middle Like a firefly.
Liuying's life is short. They fell one by one, and finally the small ring was surrounded by the big ring. Only a thousand people were left, led by Cui Shenggang, who knelt down and surrendered.
