Chapter 328 Attacking the Inner City
To kill Dong Zhuo, with the short-term deterrence effect brought by Titanoboa, Dong Zhuo's remaining 30,000 elite soldiers disarmed and disarmed.
Among them, 7,000 troops recruited from near Luoyang were temporarily organized into various hussar battalions. Tianshu camp was divided into troops, 2,000 returned to Changshengling and mobilized Qingzhuangling people to jointly guard the slaves, and 2,000 bowmen and tiger and wolf beasts were combined to guard the prisoners of war.
Liu Cang's troops were really limited, and taking prisoners was much more troublesome than massacring the army.
Xu Qun and Zhang Liao led their troops to Lubei in order to wipe out Zhang Ji's troops. Liu Cang only led 3,000 newly surrendered troops under the control of Feixiong Camp, Tianji Camp, Tianquan Camp and Yuheng Camp, making up less than 10,000 troops.
Army, send troops to Luoyang.
Dong Zhuo's head was displayed to the public to appease the people of Luoyang. The officials wanted to join the army, but Liu Cang refused.
The outer city of Luoyang was unobstructed. Cai Yong and Dian Wei used the east gate of Luoyang as the basis to collect all the gates of the outer city and besiege the imperial army.
When Liu Cang arrived in Luoyang, the Xiliang army in the Forbidden Army surrendered and died. They saw Dong Zhuo's head again, and all the Forbidden Army in the outer city surrendered.
The Yulin cavalry divided their troops at the city gate, and all the city defense mechanisms were activated.
The two battalions of Tianji and Tianquan were not the main battle camps, and they hastily gathered the surrendered Forbidden Army. The three battalions of Tianji, Tianquan and Yuheng supervised the Forbidden Army, and the Tianxuan battalion led by Dianwei stormed the east gate of the inner city.
"Dong Zhuo used his power to plot rebellion and harmed the loyal and good. Now that Dong's thieves have been eliminated, you should not continue to be stubborn. The Queen Mother has an order, and those who surrender will be spared death."
Outside the Middle East Gate, there were corpses all over the ground. The officials in the inner city had been cleared out by Dong Zhuo long ago. Dong Zhuo's brother Dong Min took control of the inner city. Seeing the army siege the city, Dong Min sealed the city gate to resist the attack of Liu Cang's army.
"The Queen Mother has lost her virtue and has long been ashamed of the world. The Queen Mother returns the throne to the Emperor. The Emperor is still here, so there is no need for the Queen Mother to send orders."
"Liu Haoxuan raises evil beasts and monsters, is cruel and tyrannical, and acts as a minister of the Han Dynasty. Everyone here is rebellious. All the troops obey the order. We swear to protect Luoyang for the emperor."
Dong Min huddled behind the female wall at the top of the city and shouted. Dozens of archers who could wield iron bows dispersed across the city tower, looking for opportunities to kill the generals who were charging into the city. In addition to crossbows and powerful bows, there were thousands more armed with rhubarb.
The shot of the crossbow is an elite soldier.
Liu Cang secretly regretted not giving Ma Rixi a blow earlier, including the sky-attack crossbow on the city. These armaments were all requested by the old man in the early years.
The Flying Bear veteran has a strong physique and a strict armor and stomach, but when faced with bed crossbows and rhubarb crossbows, there is still a fatal risk.
The Forbidden Army rushed to cover, and Feixiong Camp tried to break through the gate, but Dong Min sealed the gate with earth and stone, completely blocking the city gate. He failed to break through, but Liu Cang's side suffered heavy losses.
The four Titanoboa raised their heads several feet high outside the range of the bed crossbow. The inner city walls were towering, but the Titanoboa had no difficulty in climbing.
Unfortunately, Titanoboa is not as tough as expected, and their ability to move on land is not very optimistic.
If these Titanoboa came forward, they would probably be shot to death on the spot by powerful crossbows and arrows before they even got close to the city wall.
The mountain king was unable to leap onto the city wall for the time being. Liu Cang kept shouting here, trying to disturb the morale of the troops on the city. However, there was no shortage of forbidden troops under the supervision of Dong Min in the inner city. For a while, they were confronting Liu Cang and exchanging heated words.
"The imperial army is fierce! The young ones of your family have been released and returned home. The cruelty of Dong's thieves is known to the world, and the Queen Mother has been slandered and slandered by him. Now is the time to bring order to the chaos!" shouted again from the city, causing a commotion on the city.
"Liu Hao
Kill!" Dong Min shouted.
"kill!"
"Kill!" Xiliang soldiers shouted in response.
"Liu Haoxuan, the bed crossbow is lost, and the rhubarb bows the string. Don't drive the imperial guards to lose their lives again. When the emperor's troops leave Chang'an, we will definitely destroy you and other traitors." Dong Min scolded again, but Liu Cang was already grinning impatiently.
"My lord, you can set up torches and stone to blast him." Dian Wei gritted his teeth angrily.
"No, destroying the imperial city privately may be justified, but if he retreats to the palace, the consequences will be far-reaching." Cai Yong shook his head.
"Reinforcing the hook lock of the ladder? Dong Zhuo has always focused on the Xiliang Army. His Highness has many brave men. If a strong general comes to the city to raise his arms, the Imperial Army will surely follow suit." Chen Deng, who was drawn into Liu Cang's army at Shilihu Tu, suggested.
.
"Hmph, these bastards are really capable of breaking things off, and they even took Dong Min's life first." When Liu Cang said in disgust, he blew the bone whistle, and gold and the two withered figures descended from the sky, landing directly next to Liu Cang, attracting the city.
Give the order.
"Gu wither! Set an arrow! These ferocious beasts are cruel and cruel, and all the troops will fight to the death!" Dong Min shouted, facing the poison wither, regardless of whether he followed Dong Min or not, most of the soldiers on the city were nervous and on guard.
Dong Min shouted passionately, but if you look closely, you can see the panic on his face. When he finished speaking, he pulled him closer and murmured in a low voice.
"Huang'er, my brother is dead. Liu Haoxuan will not be able to accommodate us. Li Ru has laid fire oil in the city and led people to set fire to the city. We may take advantage of the chaos to escape." Dong Min said to the general, but he was
He is Dong Huang, nephew of Dong Zhuo's son.
"What about the people in the palace...?" Dong Huang asked in a low voice.
"I don't care about that much anymore. Don't worry about them. If they don't die, they can cause chaos. There is a secret passage in Guangyang Gate. Go quickly." Dong Min looked ferocious.
"Here! Uncle, why don't you go with Huang? Huang will order his own soldiers to burn the city, and uncle will escape first." Dong Huang whispered.
"Yeah...that's fine." Dong Min looked down at the city. The soldiers were like ants, pythons, giant tigers, and giant eagles, which made Dong Min's eyes shrink.
The tiger roared in bursts, and the half-erected strange python's throat and belly beat, making a creepy and strange sound.
What made the soldiers on the city most nervous were the giant eagles with flickering wings. They had already discovered that the pythons and giant tigers were blocked by the city wall, but the attack of those giant eagles could start at any time.
"Woo~!" The charge horn sounded, and Liu Cang waved his troops again. All the troops shouted to kill, and ladders were attached to the city.
"Du Ta, you lead the army here. When the fire breaks out in the city, lead the troops to open the Yang Gate, cross the Luoshui River, and go to Chang'an to join General Niu Fu." Dong Min said to the generals beside him.

"Let's go!" the general received the order and shouted to the soldiers to suppress the soldiers who wanted to climb the city wall. When Dong Min said to Dong Huang, Dong Huang helped Dong Min to leave.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Huh?" The wind howled. Dong Huang raised his head in confusion, facing up to the strong wind, and the ferocious claws were already in front of him.
"Gu~~" Dong Min also noticed something strange at this time. Before he could even cry out in fear, the poison's giant claws had already grasped him.
The endless grinding force came, and Dong Min's vision went dark, and Dong Huang's screams seemed to be heard in his ears.
"Gu wither!" the soldier's shrill cry rang out. The soldiers on the city did not care about the soldiers climbing the city. They lost their crossbows and threw their spears, which instantly covered the Gu wither. However, Liu Cang summoned the three giant eagles, leaving Chang alone as an assistant.
One of them hides high in the sky to attack the general.
It is impossible for Gu Cai to know Dong Min, but these Gu Fei have been trained by Liu Cang for a long time. During the attack, he specially selected people with gorgeous clothes and armor to attack, and happened to crush Dong Huang and Dong Min to death, and the eagle's beak pecked several nearby generals to death.
Those in armor will eventually be covered by arrows.
When Gu Bing invades the crowd, bed crossbows and sky strikes will not be able to function. Military bows and military crossbows will not be fatal if they are shot at Gu Bing's body due to the cushioning of feathers.
However, when faced with the force of the big yellow crossbow at close range, even if Gu withered his huge wings wildly, he could not resist the arrows entering his body. As soon as he jumped off the ground, several vital parts of his body were pierced by the arrows.
Gu Wither was crazy, and the soldiers who faced Gu Wither were also frantic. There were many soldiers who accidentally injured friendly troops during the flight. However, seeing Gu Wither twitching and dying, the soldiers only felt happy in their hearts.
Gu is dead, but where is the general?
Most of the soldiers looked at the piles of rotten flesh and broken corpses near the Gu with some surprise. Among them, the eyes of the Xiliang soldiers were about to split, but some of the imperial guards quietly pointed their swords at the Xiliang soldiers.
Liu Cang's reputation is hard to say in other places, but the soldiers and civilians near Luoyang are more willing to help Liu Cang kill people.
"Kill!" The burly figure jumped over the city wall and entered.
There was a brief panic on the city, but Dian Wei took the opportunity to climb up the city wall. Following Dian Wei, more soldiers climbing with the help of hook ropes appeared in the sight of the city defenders.
The defenders shouted and fought back, but some soldiers secretly glanced at the vital points of the Liangzhou soldiers.
The death of a Gu withered gave Dian Wei and others time to attack the city. Sacrificing a Gu withered to attack the inner city made Liu Cang feel heartbroken, but he didn't feel much discomfort.
Today is different from the past. After all, he just got back more than a hundred Gu withered eggs not long ago.
