Bring the whole war back to Nanming

Chapter 150 Cangzhou Break

The swordsman ignored the militiamen who were waiting honestly, climbed up to the top of the city one by one, took the crossbow, loaded it with arrows, and waited for the Chaos soldiers to enter the attack range.There are a few cannons left by the Qing Dynasty on the city wall. They are not big and have a small caliber, but they are better than nothing.

For a while, the sound of cannons continued, Han Jiayu was awakened by the sound of cannons, and looked around in confusion: "Xiao Fang, where are the firecrackers going?"

"Sleeping has confused you, what a firecracker, it's the cannon firing, get up, the battle has begun."

Fang Xiaobai helped Han Jiayu who was in a daze, and picked up the iron sword she had thrown on the ground: "Hold it well, don't throw it away, whether you can survive depends on them."

He originally wanted Han Jiayu to stay under the city wall and go up to see the situation by himself, but right now the militiamen have already lost their positions before seeing the enemy, scattered and fled in all directions. The situation is too chaotic, and he is worried that she will stay under the city alone, so he had to take her up. city ​​walls.

I don’t know if I don’t look at it, I’m startled when I look at it!The enemies outside were uniformly dressed in black and black armor, and they were arranged in neat formations. Each of the large square formations occupied most of the field of vision outside the city, which made Fang Xiaobai and Han Jiayu feel desperate.

"How can you win the fight? You can't even keep a one-to-one casualty ratio! Han Jiayu, do you have any secret passages or cellars in your house where you can hide?"

Fang Xiaobai gave up his determination to fight to the death, and felt that he should seek a way out. This battle was obviously not at the same level, and if he persisted, there was only one way to die.

"Xiao Fang, there is a cellar, but the entrance is too obvious, so it's easy to find."

Han Jiayu was also deeply shocked by the terrifying army outside the city. All along, she had only heard about it and never experienced it personally. When she saw it today, her face turned even paler.

"What are you doing up here, go hide and go home!" Robert, who was observing the Chaos army, found Fang Xiaobai in the crowd. Facing an enemy army dozens of times larger than his own, he had nowhere to retreat, nor could he protect the safety of the civilians.

In Robert's philosophy: The idea of ​​asking civilians to go away in war is deeply rooted. It is a matter for soldiers. If even civilians go to the battlefield, there is only one possibility, and all soldiers will die in battle.As a pure soldier, he has his own sense of honor, which indirectly determines his fate.

boom!
The violent shaking made everyone on the city wall unsteady, swaying left and right, Han Jiayu lost his footing, staggered and fell into Fang Xiaobai's arms, Fang Xiaobai was defenseless, followed the inertia, and hit his back against the battlement beside him.

"what happened?"

With a burning pain in his back, Fang Xiaobai looked around in panic, not knowing what caused such a big commotion.

Standing on the tower, Robert could see clearly the inside and outside of the city. The chaos shells fired by the Hell Cannon were astonishingly powerful, and he was taken aback even though he was prepared.

The city wall of Cangzhou City is not as good as BJ's. The outer layer is not reinforced with masonry, so it cannot hold up a few shells. Without the support of the city wall, the possibility of defending Cangzhou City is almost zero.

"Had! Go down and ask the militiamen to prepare sandbags and masonry! If the city wall collapses, repair it immediately!"

This is not an option. As a veteran of the empire, he has long been prepared to die on the battlefield, but Cangzhou is one of the hubs of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. If there is a mistake, it will have a greater direct impact on the northern front.

"Do your best, know the destiny, and the information for help is cut off. Cangzhou has become an isolated island. It is a matter of time before it falls. I hope the elector can find out the abnormality as soon as possible."

Robert put on his armor and helmet, took the Imperial cross sword handed by his own soldiers, and strode out of the tower.

The imperial soldiers lined up in two rows drew back their weapons and looked at their commander solemnly. Despite the inevitable defeat, they decided to follow Robert and fight to the end!
"Captain! Something has happened! The east gate guarded by Zhang Chao has been breached by Chaos! Zhang Chao's whereabouts are unknown, and his men have fled the city wall!"

An imperial swordsman ran up the city wall panting. It seemed that Robert arranged to supervise Zhang Chaozhang's soldiers.

boom!Robert punched the battlement with a fist, and blood slowly spilled from the back of his hand: "I have long said that I would ask the Elector to send more people to replace the surname Zhang! It is more than success than failure!"

It became meaningless to continue guarding the city gate. Robert looked around at the soldiers, and his eyes finally fell on Fang Xiaobai and Han Jiayu.

"Both of you, I admire your courage, but Cangzhou has been broken, and I am unable to continue to hold on. I will lead the soldiers to attract the attention of Chaos. This is my personal guard, Keef Korok, and he will protect your safety."

The Imperial cross sword was inserted back into the scabbard, and without asking Fang Xiaobai if he would like it, he led a thousand imperial soldiers to abandon the city wall and march towards the east gate.

Watching them leave in a daze, Fang Xiaobai had the illusion that the figures of the people's army of later generations gradually overlapped with them. At this moment, their backs were so tall.

"Xiao Fang! Can they defeat the monster?" Han Jiayu asked anxiously.

"Want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"Forget it, I don't want to know anymore!"

Standing aside, Keef Korok inevitably took a mouthful of dog food. Seeing that the Chaos soldiers were getting closer, he couldn't help but said, "You two, we should go!"

"Yes yes yes! Find a hidden place to hide, Han Jiayu, give me the sword, give you the shield, go to your cellar."

Finding a temporary hiding place is time-consuming and laborious. Maybe if you don’t find the place, the enemy will be killed in the face. It’s better to use the ready-made hiding place. At worst, transform it. Anyway, Robert delays the chaos time.

Han Jiayu didn't have any good ideas, so he could only act as a guide with the shield on his back, and the group of three quickly walked down the city wall and ran towards Han's residence.

The city of Cangzhou is in chaos. There are people with their families frantically looking for shelter everywhere on the street. I don’t know whose children are sitting on the ground crying and no one cares about them. At a loss, people crowded and pushed people, and the wide street was completely blocked.

"No, this way won't work. Does Han Jiayu have another way?"

Fang Xiaobai looked anxiously at the chaotic crowd, one head and two big. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of an alley on the left, and asked Han Jiayu, "Where does this road lead?"

"Oh! This one goes to the canal, and it can also reach my house, but it has to go around."

"Come here before there's a traffic jam! Korok, you go ahead, Han Jiayu is in the middle, and I'm in the back! Hurry up!"

Korok took out the sword from his waist and trotted into the alley. Fang Xiaobai was about to go in, but Han Jiayu held him back: "Xiao Fang, I really can't run anymore." She blinked her big eyes, showing a troubled expression.

Oh, woman~
"Come on, I'll carry you on my back, and you will show the way."

Han Jiayu grinned and laid down on Xiaobai's back above him, a softness came from her back, he calmed down, hugged her thighs with both arms, Fang Xiaobai strode swiftly to catch up with Korok who was clearing the way ahead.

With Keef Korok, the evil spirit, none of the people fleeing in the alley dared to be their way, and Fang Xiaobai and the three were able to return to the Han Mansion in the shortest possible time.

Standing at the gate, Fang Xiaobai and Han Jiayu noticed that the gate of the Han Mansion was wide open. Looking through the gate, the inside was in a mess, as if the house had been burglarized.

"How could this be?"

Han Jiayu walked into the Han family courtyard in despair. Familiar servants and servants were lying everywhere. Cheap father Han Shiyu was hanging on the swing in the lobby. In the lobby, a group of Zhao family members were sitting on both sides. It seemed that the city of Cangzhou was broken for them. negligible.
