Chapter 509 The Battle of Beijing
Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing of the Liao Dynasty was divided into two cities: the Imperial City and Han City. The walls of the Imperial City were three feet high, solid and heavily defended. Xiao Sui's palace was located in the east of the Imperial City where the first ray of the sun shines.
The bright spring sun shone in through the gate of Kaihuang Palace, bringing a touch of warmth to the empty hall.
Xiao Sui looked at the ray of sunshine quietly, leaning on the dragon chair with his hands on the back of the chair. It took him almost a lifetime to sit on the dragon chair, but he was about to lose it just four years after sitting on it. .
From the day he was born as the illegitimate son of the Xiao family, he seemed to have been living for this dragon chair all his time. When he was a child, he was forced to practice martial arts and literature, and was indoctrinated to regain his status as a legitimate prince, and to make this Daliao king The supreme power returned to the hands of the Xiao family. When the new emperor came to the throne to clean up the Xiao family's influence, he could only flee in panic with some of his bodyguards, and then rely on the 150,000 taels of gold to bribe the powerful officials step by step. Starting from a young border general, sixteen years seemed like a dream.
Are you happy? It was a pleasure to sit on this dragon chair. She remembered the letter he sent when he ascended the throne and the blood lotus, the token he had promised but she had never used it once.
Are you happy? Being the head of the family, I don’t know. This is the responsibility I have shouldered since I was born. I have shouldered the expectations and sacrifices of too many people. I have to take this path, just like you have to be the empress now.
Happy, if you, the best boat master in the world, don't take us out of that island, that would be great...
"Father!" A heroic young man wearing armor and a felt hat rushed into the hall and shouted: "Father, Zhao Yinfeng's army has arrived at the city!"
Following his shout, an earth-shattering sound of cannon sounded.
"Father?" He slowly opened his eyes and sat upright, sweeping away the decadence just now. His tall body exuded awe-inspiring fighting spirit. Looking at his father who had recovered to be the number one warrior in the Liao Kingdom, the young man showed a bright smile. He shouted: "Father! Let's kill Zhao Yinfeng back to his hometown!"
The Khitan people are a people on the grasslands. They are nomadic people who live in grass. They are natural knights and fierce warriors, but they are not good at defending cities.
Unlike the high walls and deep rivers in Bianjing Chang'an, although the walls of Linhuang Mansion are high, they are mostly made of earthen walls and are not protected by a moat. They are surrounded by mountains behind and a vast plain in front. With one round of artillery and a few rounds of thunderbolts, the corners of the imperial city had collapsed.
"General!" Zhao Wei galloped over on horseback and laughed from a distance: "Their main force is indeed concentrated in Seoul. An Xun and the others have fought hard enough."
Looking at the fluttering flags on the imperial city, Zhao Yinfeng squinted and said: "Don't be too happy too early. Although there are more people in Seoul, this is indeed Xiao Sui's direct personal guard, the Iron Eagle Camp. These are all One against ten warriors is much more difficult to deal with than those in Seoul."
"General! Let me charge forward this time!" Zhao Wei winked at Zhao Yinfeng, and then whispered: "I have already arranged what you said. General, you should just watch from behind. "
He put on his helmet, raised his sword, and as the Zhao flag with gold characters on a black background flew up behind him, Zhao Yinfeng laughed loudly and said: "That won't work. I promised her that I will definitely take Xiao Sui's head. give her!"
The deep horn sounded, and the knight in black armor took the lead, driving a bright shadow under the bright sun, and rushed towards the place where a large gap had collapsed.
"kill!"
April is the best season in the grasslands. The wind howls, the fierce flags are fluttering in the wind, and the sky is full of arrows, cutting off the strong wind, and carrying the roar, it rushes towards the cavalry that is coming like a black wave.
The cold blade danced and blocked the halo of light, ignoring the war horse knights who fell to the ground after being hit by arrows. Amidst the roar, the black-armored golden dragon knight roared with a wild smile, and Pegasus jumped onto the collapse.
The broadsword was swung, and the cold light was dyed red by the hot blood, leaving bright red marks in the sunlight. The roar was like thunder, and with the light of the sword being waved into a ball of light, the golden dragon seemed to take off from the black armor. The tall and burly man was invincible on the top of the city. He just fought his way through the layers of warriors from the Iron Eagle Battalion and the rain of arrows. The violent current surged up from the cave mouth.
"Chong'er, go back and take your mother to Huanglong Mansion." He ordered his son behind him, with a fierce fighting spirit in his eyes. Xiao Sui picked up the long knife, roared, and rushed towards the man.
The blood dyed the eyes red, and the screams could no longer distinguish between friend and foe. Bloody swords flashed, limbs flew across the field, and the only difference between the red-eyed soldiers was black and gray.
The most elite Tieying Battalion of the Liao Kingdom faced off against the most elite Tielin Army of the Zhao Army. The battle was so fierce that even the spring sun eclipsed its light, and the fierce wind silenced its roar.
There was an empty space at the top of the city. The black-armored golden dragon and the golden-armored knights were all tall and burly, and their majestic fighting spirit made the flags behind them move automatically without wind.
Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of people, the showdown between the best warrior of the Liao Kingdom and the best warrior of the Hua Dynasty was still being eulogized thousands of years later.
The one-foot-long sword, with sparks flying, was reflected by the sharp light of the sword and the flashing figure. The vibrations caused by the collision of the blades seemed to make the city walls tremble, and the huge roar issued during the swing made the earth respond.
"She actually gave you such a good knife!" Zhao Yinfeng yelled bitterly when the two of them crossed paths.
Xiao Sui was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "You are jealous!"
"Jealous ass, she belongs to me!" He turned around and pushed back Xiao Sui's attack. Zhao Yinfeng laughed loudly and said, "I will take back this knife and your head to her. "
your people! No wonder, no wonder that as the commander-in-chief, he actually took the lead in the charge. Xiao Sui's smile narrowed, and he made a gap in Zhao Yinfeng's blade with his long knife. He smiled and said, "Whether you can take my Xiao Sui's head depends on your ability." Speak!"
"Woo~~" The dull and low horn sound sounded from a distance, the earth was shaking, the strong wind was howling, and from the intersection of the green grassland and the sky, a red blood line and a silver line faced the forest. Huang Mansion rushed over.
Heavy cavalry and light cavalry.
The Tigers of the Northwest and the Rakshasa Army.
The bloodthirsty smile at the corner of Zhao Yinfeng's mouth became even more rampant, and he forced Xiao Sui down with one knife after another. When he was exhausted, the long knife with a missing mouth drew a bright red cold light in the sun.
Looking at the cavalrymen who came with the force of thunder like ocean waves, Ye Yu's lips turned into a smile. He used his long sword to fly away the sword of a man who sneaked up on Zhao Wei, turned around and harvested two lives, and then looked towards The two people were fighting together so that no one else dared to approach them.
Zhao Yinfeng's sword like a god of death cut a big hole in Xiao Sui's body. Before Ye Yu's smile could spread, he shouted loudly: "General! Be careful!"
A big mouth opened in front of Xiao Sui's body, and blood and flesh spattered out. When his body fell back, he saw the smile on Zhao Yinfeng's face, and the sun shone from behind the majestic and mountain-like body, dazzling. The light made his eyes go blank, and the bright smile with joy and determination remained clearly in his eyes.
A row of soldiers sprang out from the city wall behind Xiao Sui, and a dense rain of arrows shot at the man whose tattered cloak was fluttering in the wind behind him with a long knife in his hand and a stern and arrogant smile.
Ye Yu swooped in the direction of Zhao Yinfeng from the crowd. He saw a smile on Zhao Yinfeng's lips in the rain of arrows. He clenched the long knife in his hand with one hand and grabbed it in front of him with the other.
He only blocked the arrows on his face and throat, allowing other sharp arrows to pierce his body.
"General!" Ye Yu roared, and he rushed forward with a sword like a rainbow, rushing towards the Liao soldiers who were preparing to fire the second round of arrows.
At that moment, the body automatically tightened all the muscles. The arrowhead shot through the armor did not cause any damage to the vital parts after being blocked by the muscles. However, it hurt! Zhao Yinfeng cursed in a low voice, and then looked at the figure that jumped out from the Liao soldiers who dragged Xiao Sui back.
His pupils tightened, Zhao Yinfeng grinned, and watched the young man stabbing the spear fiercely with red eyes.
The spear pierced under his right ribs. The young man let out a cry, and used the force of his forward thrust to stab the spear upwards from under his left ribs. The tip of the spear was filled with a huge spray of blood and minced meat. The sky exploded with brilliant colors.
Before the boy's joy could shine out, a flash of light flashed before his eyes. The big knife that had been held untouched by the man drew a bright light. Amidst his father's frightened cry, in the boy's eyes, except for the man who was still standing Outside of his proud body is his bare neck.
"General!" "General!" "General!"
Shrill screams echoed up and down the city wall, and the black-armored soldiers rushed forward even more ferociously.
"General!" Zhao Wei rushed up after Ye Yu and supported Zhao Yinfeng's body. Other soldiers had already rushed up and formed a circle around them.
"Put up the flag!" Holding a long knife, Zhao Yinfeng looked at Xiao Sui, who was being supported by his subordinates and retreated towards the inner city, and said loudly: "Brothers, put up our flag! After today, no more There is no Liao Kingdom!"
"Kill!" Zhao Meng wiped away his tears, grabbed the flag of the flag bearer beside him, and took the lead in charging towards the city.
The soldiers around him poured in like a tide. Zhao Yinfeng smiled, drew out his sword, cut off the spear on his body, then cut off the arrowheads with the sword, and whispered to Zhao Wei: "Send me there."
Zhao Wei was startled, but Ye Yu had already rushed back. He took out the medicine from the medicine bag and stuffed it into Zhao Yinfeng's mouth, saying: "General, hold on, the master is already here. One of the three miracle doctors will definitely come." , don’t worry, it will be fine!”
After swallowing the pill, Zhao Yinfeng grabbed Ye Yu's arm and pulled him close, saying in his ear: "Go and invite her, I'll wait for her there, don't tell her, don't tell her, do you understand? Hurry up. go!"
Ye Yu was stunned, watching Zhao Wei with tears in his eyes, and several other soldiers holding up Zhao Yinfeng and retreating. As he passed by him, he whispered: "You went to see that place yesterday. Know it’s there.”
