Under the pot pass, there are many corpses, under such a narrow unfolding surface, in the face of such a steep city pass, the casualties suffered by the attackers, even the most hard-hearted generals will tremble. But Zhu Youzhen had no choice. Tactically speaking, it was definitely a mistake for him to drive his soldiers to attack so strongly. But strategically, as long as he can achieve the ultimate goal, no matter how big the sacrifice is, it will be worth it.

The Xuanwu army has been preparing for many years, and his army is indeed extremely strong, and despite suffering huge casualties, their offensive is still higher than the tide.

They were treading on the corpses of their companions, and even the corpses of their companions were used by them to raise the foundations, allowing them to get closer to the walls of the city for attacking.

Above the kettle pass, the defenders were also under tremendous pressure.

Such a frantic attack was something they had never seen before. At this time, there were 2,000 Niu Guards, 1,000 Shence Army, 1,000 Zhaoyi soldiers led by Su Qun, and the remaining 600 black armor soldiers from Wuwei plus a group of guards led by Tu Hu.

At this moment, these more than 600 black-armored soldiers and these guards have truly become the backbone.

The black-armored soldiers are the battle-hardened soldiers sent by Li Ze, they have experienced the Battle of Henghai, the Battle of Zhenwu, and the thrilling battles with Zhang Zhongwu on the banks of the Yishui River, for them, although the current war looks fierce, it is much weaker than the Battle of Yishui River in the face of Zhang Zhongwu's 20,000 cavalry thunderous impact.

A soldier who has not actually experienced the impact of ten thousand horses will never be able to imagine such a scene.

And those who have experienced such a scene and survived, when they set foot on the battlefield again, what they see is nothing more than pediatrics in their eyes and hearts.

And the guards of the tiger slaughter are some masters of the rivers and lakes, and the formation of a military formation is far less than ordinary soldiers, but in such a battle, they are like fish in water, but whenever there is a Xuanwu army who climbs to the top of the city with great difficulty, they will immediately become their hunting targets, and in terms of individual combat ability, these guards are stronger than the black armor soldiers.

Tu Hu took these people as a mobile force, and wherever there was danger, he would appear.

It is precisely because they are always in dangerous places like timely rain that the soldiers of Qianniuwei, Zhaoyi Army and Shence Army can stabilize their minds.

When Liu Ruyan appeared on the city, the Xuanwu army just launched another wave of fierce offensives. A Xuanwu general rode a war horse, galloping, in the shout, he stood up on the war horse, waved vigorously with one hand, a hook and rope flew in the air, firmly grasped the city wall, and pulled hard, like a flying god general, it actually came to the sky like this.

Above and below the city, at this moment, they couldn't help but be taken by it, and they all involuntarily looked up at the flying general, but Liu Ruyan was unmoved, and casually snatched the spear in the hand of a soldier who was a little dazed beside him, and with a loud shout, the spear broke out of the air. With a buzzing and trembling sound, he slashed through the air, piercing the Xuanwu general with a gun, and seeing that the Xuanwu general who had just been majestic fell like a stone in an instant, the city and the city shouted in unison.

Under the city, there is a roar of grief and indignation.

In the city, there was a cry of excitement.

The Xuanwu general who had just died obviously had a good status.

Liu Ruyan held a gun in one hand, standing proudly at the head of the city, and his fiery red armor was so dazzling.

The morale of the soldiers in the city was greatly boosted. Especially the Qianniuwei and the Shence Army, on this road, they have witnessed many times with their own eyes how this fiery red armor charged, rushing the enemy troops who blocked them again and again.

Under the closing, Zhu Youzhen's eyes were red, "Willow is like smoke!" He gritted his eyes and roared: "Push my Chinese army forward another hundred paces in the flag." ”

"General, push another hundred steps, and you will be within the scope of the attack of the strong crossbow in the city." The guard exclaimed.

"A hundred steps forward! In today's battle, there is no advance or retreat. The sentry chief is dead, Qu Chang is dead, the general is dead, the general is dead, I am on it personally, but whoever takes a step back, behead! Zhu Youzhen roared angrily and drove the horse forward.

In the battle, the banner of the main general moved forward, showing all the soldiers the unswerving confidence of the general, and as Zhu Youzhen's Chinese army moved forward, the fighting spirit of the Xuanwu army, which had been fading because of the huge blow just now, instantly rose high again.

The battle has once again entered the white-hot stage.

The Xuanwu army shed the ground of life and death wave after wave of impact on the city wall, the ladder was completely damaged, and the tree poles were carried up one by one, and the corpses were padded below, the soldiers bit the horizontal knife in their mouths, and climbed up with their hands and feet, and the city gate was vigorously slammed again and again, and every time they collided, they would suffer heavy casualties because of the stones, gold juice, or simply splashed down with boiling water on the top of the city, but as long as there was still a breath, they would get up again, and charge again.

Xue Ping also rushed forward with a knife. On the tower of the city gate, only Gongsun Changming remained, holding a drumstick in both hands and beating hard.

Compared with the extremely dangerous fight between the two sides above Huguan, the confrontation between the two sides in Baigu Mountain in the north was much calmer. Here, it was the 3,000 Shence army led by Li Haitong, and the 10,000 Wei Bo and Zhaoyi coalition troops led by Tian Ping were opposite.

Before Zhu Youzhen arrived, Tian Ping tried hard to attack, but after returning again and again, he was also discouraged.

And when Zhu Youzhen arrived, Tian Ping lost the dominance of the battlefield and became a partial division to contain the Baigu Mountain Shence Army. Although Baigu Mountain is a newly established camp, it will not be much easier than Huguan.

Huguan still has at least more than 100 zhang of unfolding surface, but the Shence Army camp on Baigu Mountain does not even have such a large unfolding surface. It's even harder to attack.

With the failure of Zhu Youzhen's attacks in Huguan again and again, Tian Ping became even more disheartened, and in Baigu Mountain, it purely became a false story.

This made Li Hai on Baigu Mountain look quite relaxed.

However, at noon, Li Hai's relaxation was gone.

A horse galloped in, bringing with him the news that the soldiers stationed at one outpost and the others who had gone to change shifts had all been wiped out.

Li Hai Pegasus came to the place of the accident and saw the corpses of the twenty men dragged out of the dense forest, and his face became more and more ugly.

The armor of these soldiers was stripped of their armor, and their banners and waist badges were gone.

What the purpose of the enemy is in doing this, it is clear.

His eyes looked at the dense woods and the path between the trees, and the cold sweat on his back seeped out one by one.

"You guys, go back immediately and tell General Li Zhen that the command of the Beida Battalion will be handed over to him from now on. Tian Ping did not have the intention of fighting, and told Li Zhen to hold the camp tightly, not to provoke, and not to attack. Li Hai turned over and got on his horse and said loudly to the guards who followed.

"General Li, where are you going?" The guard asked loudly.

"I'm going to Huguan, something big is going to happen." Li Haidao.

Dropping this sentence, Li Hai slapped the horse stock with his backhand, and it turned out to be a one-handed shot, rushing towards the direction of Huguan.

The crazy Zhu Youzhen and the crazy Xuanwu army also made the whole Huguan crazy, the Xuanwu army under the city suffered heavy casualties, and the losses of the defending side gradually increased.

At this time, Qin Zhao, who was still not a short distance away from Huguan, was stunned to find that the Xuanwu army, which was originally besieging him everywhere, had disappeared at some point. And the Xuanwu cavalry that had been chasing him closely never followed after he got rid of the other party again last night.

One by one, the scouts returned, bringing back news that had left him a little stunned.

"All these troops are going to Huguan?" Qin Zhao's eyes widened and asked, "Don't they even want a back road?" ”

"General, all the enemies are moving away from us, and their goal is Huguan." The scouts replied in the affirmative. "General, in the process of investigating, we also found an enemy's grain transport team, which is weakly protected, do you want to rob him now?"

Qin Zhao was silent for a long time, but suddenly shook his head: "The whole army is assembled and go to Huguan." ”

"General, Huguan is only afraid that tens of thousands of enemy troops have been gathered now, and we have thousands of people to go over, but I am afraid that we will not be able to help anything."

"It's not going to help anything, but there must be a demon when things go wrong, Zhu Youzhen must have his reason for doing this, he is fighting for his life, he wants to exchange his life for the life of His Majesty the Emperor, we can contain some of his soldiers and horses before, but now he ignores us, we have to take the initiative to stick it, he won't beat me, I want to fight him, the whole army set off."

After an order, more than a thousand cavalrymen got on their horses again, their hooves rumbled, and they galloped towards Huguan.

And just when more Xuanwu troops were advancing towards Huguan, and when Qin Zhao was also advancing towards the center of the battlefield without hesitation, a cavalry of more than 20,000 people was also starting from the camp of the Wuwei army under Luzhou City, like a sharp sword, rushing towards Huguan. And the one who led this cavalry team was Li Ze, the commander of Wuwei Festival, himself.

In the war of besieging Luzhou, the north was under the unified command of Cao Xin, You Yong was deputy, with more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, while in the west, it was the main attack of the Hedong Army, which was mainly attacked by Han Qi.

Inside Huguan, the battle had been going on for almost a whole day, and the attack that had begun in the early morning had not stopped for a moment until the sun was setting in the west at this time.

The city is fighting for their lives, and the place where Li Yan and others, who are far away from the battlefield in the city, live is still peaceful, and the earth-shattering shouts and rumbling war drums above the juncture are only faintly audible here.

Mrs. Wang looked normal, and was walking around the yard with a well-fed baby, accompanied by Xia Zhu and Xiao Cicada.

"Mrs. Wang!" There was a shout in my ears.

When Mrs. Wang turned around, she saw that the queen was helping Li Yan and walking out of the room.

"Why did Your Majesty come out?" Madame Wang greeted her.

"Your Majesty said that he was bored in the house and wanted to come out for a walk!" The queen whispered.

Li Yan listened to the faint shouts and drums of war, and his expression was slightly anxious: "This battle has been fought all day, is there any news ahead?" ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, there is no news coming, it is the best news!" Mrs. Wang said with a smile.
