Chapter 376 377 One Arrow Determines the Outcome

Zhou Jia remembered Ouyang Xiong's fanatical eyes when he talked about Zhentian Lei. He looked at Li Yu worriedly and warned: "Yu'er, if the war gets serious, if you want to help, don't let anyone find out that those soil bombs were made by you." , I think your worries are correct, what if they think you have more powerful weapons that you haven’t used yet, and want to harm you, and threaten you with Yang’er, me, Ah Qing, etc., what will happen then?”

Li Yu knew that what Zhou Jia said was the truth. The most terrifying thing is not the ghosts but the human heart. You never know what he will become.

"I know. I have used a lot of Ruyi and Jixiang. There are still some left in the cellar. There are not many left. I will go quietly tonight so that no one will find out. If the war is not serious, I will not use them until it is over. Just throw it into the ditch and it'll be fine."

Ji Xiang, who was sitting on the rafters of the carriage, suddenly stood up and said, "Master, Madam, there is an alarm bell ringing at the west end of the city, and there is an enemy attack at the west end."

"Turn the car around and go to the West City Gate." Zhou Jia and Li Yu both walked to the door of the carriage. The dense alarm bells seemed to hit several people's hearts. "Yang Huaiyi jumped over the wall in a hurry and dispersed his troops to attack the West City Gate. Damn it, there shouldn't be many defenders in the West City." military."

"You guys go back," Li Yu jumped out of the carriage decisively, "Jixiang will take the master back to the Yamen, and I will go to the city head to have a look."

"I'll go with you." Zhou Jia also jumped out of the carriage after Li Yu. Li Yu stopped and looked at him and said: "Zhou Jia, if you don't go back, the prefect will send his soldiers to help. Follow me to the city." Well?" Li Yu had already run away before he finished speaking.

"Go back to the government office quickly." Zhou Jia had no choice but to jump on the carriage.

Li Yu rushed to the city gate and took out the strong bow and hand crossbow arrows at a quiet corner. He carried them on his back and jumped up to the top of the city. He saw that there were already soldiers pressing down on the city. It turned out that Yang Huaiyi had feinted a shot and moved to the west city. Door.

Li Yu saw rows of archers standing in the middle of the shields on the top of the city, with bows and arrows drawn. Arrows fell into the Qi army's camp in front like a shower, and a large number of Qi soldiers fell to the ground with arrows.

The Qi army's crossbowmen arrived quickly, and under the cover of infantry shields, they stepped forward and fired at the city head. The soldiers at the city head who could not evade were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. The injured soldiers were still gritting their teeth and fighting back with arrows on their bodies.

The Qi troops under the city rushed towards the city wall one after another. The dense Qi soldiers rushed towards the city wall carrying ladders and crossbow beds.

A large handsome flag with Yang characters on a red background and black characters was placed on the chariot and fluttering in the wind. Standing on the chariot was a tall and powerful man. He was wearing black armor and a dark red cap of the same color on his head. With a tassel on his head and a long sword in his hand, he stood majestically on the chariot, commanding the Qi army. Next to the chariot, there was a maroon horse that could be easily seen as not ordinary. The Qi army under the city saw the chariot. The morale is high and the war drums are thundering.

Immediately afterwards, a group of Qi soldiers pushing a huge bumping log came out of the military formation and moved forward hard towards the city gate. Li Yu knew that it was used to hit the city gate.

Li Yu stood at the chop and looked at the general on the chariot and thought to himself, this general with extraordinary appearance is probably Yang Huaiyi, right? If it was really him, even Yang Huaiyi went to the battle in person to participate in the battle. It seems that the Qi army was determined to fight against the odds.

Li Yu narrowed his eyes when he looked at him, and decided to use him to intimidate Qi Bing regardless of whether he was Yang Huaiyi or not.

Li Yu looked at the fluttering flag on the chariot and the dark red tassel of the general's hat fluttering in the wind. He tested the wind direction and speed, moved quickly to find the best shooting position, exhaled slowly, drew his bow and aimed the arrow. On his face, the dark arrows shot out of the air with a whoosh, and Li Yu saw the cluster of dark red hat tassels fall back and the chariot fell.

Li Yu threw away the bow and picked up the hand crossbow that was placed in the chopper. He made one movement in one go. He aimed the hand crossbow at Qi Bing who was pushing the crash car towards the city gate and pulled the trigger. After a few soft sounds, the car crashed to a stop. Come down...

At this time, the flag soldiers on the tower waved their flags and pointed at the chariot, shouting loudly, "Yang Huaiyi has been beheaded, Yang Huaiyi has been beheaded."

Suddenly, the soldiers on the city looked at the empty chariots and shouted in unison, "Yang Huaiyi has been beheaded, Yang Huaiyi has been beheaded..."

The Qi army who rushed to the city wall looked back and saw that the tall chariot was empty. The maroon horse next to the chariot was kneeling on the ground and whining toward the sky. The morale of the Qi army was suddenly smashed into the dust.

Ouyang Xiong, who led his troops to the head of the west city, raised his arms and shouted, "Fight, kill, kill, fight, kill the enemy..." The morale of Dayong's soldiers was as high as a rainbow, and the exciting drumbeats sounded from the towers. Thousands of arrows were fired from their heads, and the infantry picked up stones and threw them at the Qi army. The Qi army scurried away with their heads in their arms. The city gate opened at the bottom of the city, and teams of cavalry rode out...

The shouts of killing by the soldiers of Dayong shook the sky. The Qi army was defeated like a mountain. The soldiers and generals fled in all directions. When it was dark, the battle ended and Dayong won a great victory.

They searched the Qi camp for Prince Qi to no avail. Some people said that Prince Qi had a disagreement with Yang Huaiyi and had long since escaped with his followers.

Ouyang Xiong sent troops to Linshan County to regain the lost territory.

Yunzhou City burst into cheers. Someone set off firecrackers. The cheering people snapped up all the firecrackers in the firecracker workshop. Closed doors opened and neighbors congratulated each other. There were joyful sounds of firecrackers everywhere.

Chu Sihai came to Zhou Jia's signing room amidst the sound of firecrackers. He looked at Zhou Jia and laughed loudly: "Congratulations to Mr. Zhou, congratulations to Mr. Zhou on the great victory in Yunzhou. Your wife is worthy of being the protector of the country. My husband's unstoppable courage easily eliminated a fierce battle, Sihai feels that we should have a good celebration, what do you think, Mr. Zhou?"

"Same joy, same joy," Zhou Jia responded humbly with a proud smile on his face, "Miao Zan, the great shopkeeper, is not as brave as you said. There are quite a lot of things that need you and me in and outside the city right now. Yes, the damaged city walls and houses need to be repaired and rebuilt, so the celebrations can be postponed for a while before it is too late."

Chu Sihai thought about it and thought it was right. He suddenly remembered something, which added a hint of bitterness to his joy of victory. He sighed, "That's right. I have to send someone to Luoji Mountain to take a look when I get back. Why haven’t the secret guards sent out come back to report? Are all General Shen’s uncle and nephew killed?”

Zhou Jia also sighed and said, "Yes! Mrs. Shen is still waiting for news about General Shen! I heard that she also sent her generals to look for news about General Shen. I think he will be back in a few days!" "

Chu Sihai couldn't stay any longer and hurriedly said goodbye to Zhou Jia, "I'll go back and send someone to check first. See you later, Mr. Zhou!"

Zhou Jia watched Chu Sihai leave in a hurry, shook his head with a smile, and went out to call the clerk to the city.

Ruyi and Jixiang went to the Wang family while the whole city was celebrating their victory. They saw the two guards of the Wang family having set off firecrackers and drinking in the house. The two went into the woodshed in the outer courtyard and found the Wang family's cellar. After opening it, they saw that it was filled with grain and chestnuts, and the two began to carry it.
