Turbulent Times Chapter 1497: Cheng Yaojin’s suspicion
"You guys will still attack the second pass in the afternoon, but I will send you ten special combat soldiers. They will help you break through the pass." Wang Junlin saw that the goal of tempering and tempering Li Shanfei's 10,000 people had been achieved, and finally let him The black-armored warrior made a move.
"I will obey you." With expectation and doubt, Li Shanfei left with ten dead men in black armor with no life in their eyes.
In the afternoon, Li Shanfei's troops continued to attack the second pass, and the huge barriers were dismantled on the spot, turning them into ramming logs. It caused great losses to the Far East Army.
But when ten black-armored dead soldiers mixed with ordinary soldiers easily avoided rolling stones, wood, bows and arrows, and sneaked under the city wall, the situation was reversed in a few breaths of time.
Like rabbits, the eight black-armored soldiers leaped and galloped in front of the city wall, dodging all the rolling stones, trees, and most of the arrows. Under such circumstances, two grenades were drawn from the black armor vest at an unimaginable speed, and they were thrown towards the city wall of the pass.
Amidst the loud noise, there was a gap in the city wall, but it still stood firm and upright. Obviously, the Wagang Army had long been prepared against the gunpowder weapons of the Far East Army. The city wall was built extremely thick.
However, the sixteen grenades successfully killed the Wagang army on the city wall, and suppressed the other Wagang defenders. The other two black-armored soldiers who had prepared for a long time took the opportunity to hold a An ignited explosive package came directly to the extremely thick pass city gate.
The guard at the pass, Li Hu, discovered the intention of the black-armored soldiers, and after yelling loudly, many Wagang soldiers got up from the top of the city to shoot arrows or blocked the two black-armored soldiers with rolling stones and wood. It was impossible for these two black-armored soldiers to dodge, but it was difficult for them to dodge the arrow rain at such a close range, their bodies were full of arrows.
I just don't know whether it's the armor defense on the black-armored soldiers or their physique. Even though their bodies are full of arrows, the two black-armored soldiers rushed to the city gate with arrows all over them.
During this process, the two black-armored dead men remained indifferent, as if they were not going to die, but to eat and go to the toilet.
Then there were two earth-shattering bangs, blowing down the extremely thick gate and the tower above it.
Obviously, these two pieces of explosives are specially made, far more powerful than grenades and ordinary explosives.
The loud noise and destructive force of the explosion of the gunpowder pack had a great blow to the morale of the soldiers of the Wagang Army who had rarely seen the explosion of the gunpowder pack.
After the explosion, Li Shanfei led his men and horses to rush forward. Up to now, and with the loss at the first checkpoint, his men and horses had lost more than 2,000 people. He already hated the Wagang Army to death. Red eyes.
The Far East Army rushed over from the ruins of the city gate, and the Neiwagang Army at the pass came back to their senses. Under the organization of the guard Li Hu, they bravely rushed up to intercept, and the two sides immediately fought into a mass.
When Li Shanfei roared furiously and led his own soldiers into the enemy, and chopped down an enemy general with a single blow, he didn't know that it was Li Hu, the chief general here, so he didn't Don't care about Li Hu, but continue to kill other people.
As a result, the injured Li Hu was shot to death by an ordinary soldier of the Far East Army with a fast crossbow.
The general guarding the pass was killed, and the remaining soldiers collapsed immediately, and fled desperately to Huangshizhai on the mountain. At the peak of Huangshizhai, Cheng Yaojin watched the second pass with a loud noise
Afterwards, he quickly fell to the ground, with a miserable expression on his face, which was extremely gloomy.
Finally in front of the main village of Huangshizhai, Li Shanfei let out a long breath, and knocked down the two ghost gates in front of him. Now Huangshizhai seems to him to be vulnerable.
"Send down the order, the troops will rest, **** it, come and clean them up tomorrow!" Li Shanfei shouted loudly, standing on the wall of the second checkpoint, facing Huangshizhai, roaring wildly.
At the head of Huangshi Walled City, Cheng Yaojin has calmed down, sitting quietly on the top of the wall, looking at the two checkpoints in the distance that have become ruins, his face is extremely calm, holding a pair of handles in both hands The giant axe looked uncertain.
The two natural barriers were breached, basically declaring that Huangshi Village could no longer be defended. Although there are still nearly 20,000 people left in Huangshi Village, including more than 3,000 wounded soldiers who fled back.
"Deputy Chief, what should we do now?" A general finally couldn't bear it and came to ask Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin looked up at the base of the Far Eastern Army's Stormy Bear Camp, which had never been touched, especially one of the largest tents, thinking that Wang Junlin should be inside right now.
In the past few days, he has always had doubts in his heart. As Wang Junlin, a Huangshi village, even if Fengyang City is added, there is absolutely no reason to come in person.
Obviously, this famous Poison King must have another purpose of his own, but he really can't figure it out. If he only thinks about destroying the entire Wagang Army with this little force, it is obviously unrealistic, after all, so far However, the main elite of the Wagang Army has not yet been dispatched, which means that the full-scale war between the Far East Army and the Wagang Army has not yet fully started.
Cheng Yaojin also once thought that Wang Junlin might want to subdue Xu Shiji. After all, Wang Junlin is thirsty for talent. As long as he is really capable, he can take him in regardless of his origin, regardless of his enemy or himself. It's admirable.
But Cheng Yaojin never thought that he was also Wang Junlin's target, let alone that the other party came in person.
After all, besides having a status and reputation within the Wagang Army, I don't have any reputation in the world right now, and I haven't even led troops to fight many big battles alone.
In the Central Plains, this place may still have a little prestige, but in the whole world, in today's troubled times where heroes are everywhere, although Cheng Yaojin has an ambition that he has never told others, but in Wang Junlin, the most powerful man in the world It's really hard to show up in front of top figures.
So, for Wang Junlin to come personally and block him in the cottage, he was a little flattered. Sometimes he even thought that if he was planted here this time, it would be the most honorable way to die if it was spread out.
After all, they died at the hands of the famous poisonous king. If Li Mi, Zhai Rang and Xu Shiji had to die, they would probably want to die at the hands of the poisonous king, rather than being killed by others.
Those thoughts that shouldn't have at this time flashed by, Cheng Yaojin took a deep breath, refreshed himself, his eyes flashed brightly, making people feel full of confidence, and said: "Don't worry! Mr. Xu It will definitely send reinforcements."
As he spoke, he stood up, held an ax in both hands, danced vigorously a few times, and said with satisfaction: "It's been a long time since I killed the enemy by myself, and then I will let my old Chen's ax teach you how to use the Far Eastern Army. Great."
At this moment, a personal soldier escorted three disgraced soldiers over and reported: "Deputy manager, these three cowards wanted to escape from the back mountain just now, but I caught them back. /
Come on. "
Cheng Yaojin's face suddenly changed. If deserters start appearing in one of the troops on the battlefield, it means that the morale of his troops has dropped to a very dangerous level.
Cheng Yaojin's expression immediately returned to normal, and even with a smile on his face, he said: "You three think we are bound to lose, so you want to escape?"
Seeing that the vice-manager's face showed no killing intent, the three deserters felt relieved. One of them quickly smiled wryly and said, "Deputy-manager, is this battle still going to be fought? We've already lost."
"Yes! Vice President, we have already lost." The other two deserters also echoed.
Cheng Yaojin smiled slightly, and said nonchalantly, "Then, in your opinion, what should we do now?"
The three deserters hesitated to speak, and repeated several times. Seeing that Cheng Yaojin was still looking at them with a gentle smile on his face, he finally plucked up his courage and said, "Deputy Chief, why don't we retreat! The Far Eastern Army is not Surround Houshan, instead of letting the brothers die in vain, it is better to withdraw to Fengyang City, join forces with the chief commander, and then fight the Far East Army to the death!"
"It's a fight to the death, but you three dare to fight to the death with others." Cheng Yaojin said with a smile, seeing the three deserters feel terrified.
The three deserters were frightened, and quickly stated: "If the deputy chief does not want to retreat, the three of us will fight with the deputy chief and the Far East Army now."
Cheng Yaojin laughed suddenly, stood up, patted one of the deserters on the shoulder, walked to the wall, pointed to the soldiers of the Far Eastern Army who were making various arrangements on the mountain road, and said, "Withdraw the troops." ?Do you think that the Far Eastern Army will not be ambushed by someone in the back mountain to cut off our retreat, if we leave Huangshizhai, without the protection of the wall, we will only die worse and faster."
After a pause, Cheng Yaojin turned around and said confidently: "Don't worry! I have already made an appointment with the chief executive. At the critical moment, he will send a large army to support us. That's when we will retreat Timing, right now we have to stick to Huangshizhai."
"I would like to go to Huangquan with the deputy chief!" All the generals saluted Cheng Yaojin and roared loudly, and the three deserters also roared, and they were worried that Cheng Yaojin would not be able to hear them, and their voices were louder than others Even bigger.
Cheng Yaojin smiled and nodded slightly, expressing his satisfaction with everyone's attitude, but he walked up to the three fleeing men and said to them: "Okay, you three go to the tower and prepare to defend the city!"
"Yes, deputy manager!" The three deserters were completely relieved, saluted Cheng Yaojin gratefully, and turned to go.
It's just that they just turned around halfway. Cheng Yaojin took two giant axes from the soldiers next to him and swung them several times like lightning. The heads of the three deserters flew out almost at the same time, and the three headless corpses Blood splattered everywhere, and Cheng Yaojin's face was sprayed with blood, looking extremely hideous.
Everyone screamed, and they all took a step back, stunned by the sudden change in front of them.
Cheng Yaojin wiped the blood off his face casually, handed the ax to the soldiers again, and shouted: "These three trash are already timid and have lost their courage, and they will only do bad things if they are left behind. , and will run away, why don't I give them a ride first."
"Don't worry, everyone, the chief executive will definitely send troops to rescue us, but the premise is that we can persist until that moment. Come and serve wine. I will drink with my brothers tonight! Tomorrow we will fight to the death."
