As the commander of the Liao army's elite cavalry Feiyan cavalry, Xiao Lulie has always been known for his bravery and fearlessness in battle, but whenever he fights, he will rush to the front of the team. Today's raid into Zhuozhou City was naturally no exception, and he was almost the first cavalry to rush out of the city gate.

Then, he heard a sudden roar from the side. Although he didn't know Chinese, he didn't know what the other party was shouting, but at this moment, after years of fighting, the experience of licking the blood from the knife head made him feel a warning in his heart, and without thinking, the knife that should have been cut at the front of several guards had been quickly retracted in front of him, and his body also turned sideways, flashing straight to the side of the horse.

At the same time as he made this strange dodge and defense stance, countless powerful arrows flew like raindrops in the darkness on the left and right at the same time, and even though he danced his knife like a wheel, blocking a huge area in front of him, one of the arrows still passed through the defense line and hit the shoulder. The war horse under the crotch was also hit by arrows one after another, screaming sadly, and the momentum of the forward rush also stopped immediately, and ran to the side.

Even the Pyreo, who defended in time, was wounded, and the situation of the other cavalry was naturally even worse. They rushed in front of the barrage of arrows almost completely defenseless, and it was no different from hitting the feather arrows themselves, that is, seeking death!

As a well-known light cavalry elite in the Liao army, Feiyan does not pay heavy armor up and down, and at most wears a thin layer of leather armor. This armor can also block dozens or hundreds of steps away from the stray arrows, but the chaotic arrow in front of him is excited at thirty or forty steps, which is the position where the arrow kills and penetrates the most, and this branch is much greater than the ordinary bow and arrow, once hit, the leather armor is like paper paste without any defensive effect at all, so that a large number of cavalry are seriously injured and fall off their horses.

And after the group of people who rushed to the forefront fell off their horses one after another, they directly blocked the already small city gate holes, which became a fatal stumbling block, and sealed the robe in the rear at the exit.

It can be said that in just this moment, the Feiyan Cavalry, who should have entered the city easily, was completely blocked in the city gate hole by random arrows, and was in a dilemma. This time Sun Tudu felt a little surprisingly smooth, but his reaction was fast enough, and he immediately ordered again: "Kill the past, seal the door with a bow and crossbow, and kill them all!" "With such a good one-sided opportunity for slaughter, how could he easily let it go?

The soldiers immediately received the order, and ran out of the darkness on the left and right, and when they got closer, they rained down with arrows. For the hundreds of Liao troops who were still trapped in the cave of the city gate, it was really the urging of the king of Yama. Even though they struggled to wield their weapons one by one, finding the fallen war horses as cover to dodge, they still couldn't completely protect themselves from being injured by this burst of random arrows, the screams kept echoing in this semi-sealed space, the corpses under their feet continued to increase, and the blood also flowed out with Bobo, which was miserable and desperate, which they had never imagined.

But at the moment, even if someone wants to turn around and escape, it is a little difficult. Because they were in a hurry to occupy the city gate just now, there were too many cavalry who came in at once, and nearly half of a thousand cavalry rushed into the city gate cave in one go. Even though the north gate of Zhuozhou is wide enough to allow two or three wide carriages to pass through in parallel, this space is still not enough to see in the face of these many cavalry, especially the already chaotic cavalry.

I saw that they scrambled to be the first, and the road was completely blocked, not to mention that the horses turned around and left, even if people wanted to go over, it was not so easy.

"Abandon the horse, abandon the horse and leave!" I don't know who suddenly shouted loudly, and finally got the approval of many people in the rear. At this time, the argument that a cavalry could lose his life but not his horse had long been left behind, after all, there was only one life, but the horse could still be found. So soon, the dozens of people in the rear had hurriedly dismounted, and ran straight to the city gate cave at the other end. Farther away, the cavalry, which had not yet had time to enter, quickly moved to the left and right, clearing their way.

But at this moment, there was another shout of killing from their rear, and the victorious army that had fallen behind them before finally rushed back. The shocking change at the city gate completely disrupted the rhythm of the Liao army, and also confused their minds, and they actually completely left this situation in the rear behind.

Although under the ambush of the Liao army, this night attack Chang Sheng's army suffered heavy casualties and escaped in defeat, they still maintained a certain combat effectiveness after all, and more than 1,000 people were able to come back alive. When they saw these Liao cavalry rushing to the city gate before them just now, they were already anxious and rushed with all their might.

They regretted in their hearts, it turned out that everything was a conspiracy of the enemy, but they became accomplices of the Liao army to open the city gate! Knowing that this was the result, they would rather stick to the city than be greedy for this credit. Now they are from top to bottom, full of only atonement for their sins, and only the idea of fighting to the death with the Liao army.

Therefore, when they killed in front of the city gate and saw the Liao cavalry that was constantly retreating, they did not hesitate at all, and they had already frantically pounced on them and launched the fiercest attack on them fiercely.

At this time, the situation of these elite cavalry of the Liao army is becoming more and more unbearable. Arrows continued to shoot out at the gate ahead, and there were even their own robes inside making a final struggle, trying to escape for their lives. Behind them, there was a victorious army that fiercely pounced over, and with a clamp on both sides, they really didn't even have room to maneuver, so they could only fight hard.

This was undoubtedly extremely fatal for these hundreds of light cavalry.

The advantage of cavalry over foot soldiers is that they are superior to infantry in strength and speed by the momentum of their horses, so that they can fight at will, and the conflict breaks the infantry formation, so that their defenses are completely broken, and finally they become lambs to the slaughter.

But the current cavalry was directly blocked in front of the city gate, and there was no room to escape left and right, and most of their advantage was cut in an instant. On the contrary, the man and the rider are too large and inflexible, and the obvious weakness of the target is undoubtedly exposed at this moment. As a result, in this head-to-head battle to the death, hundreds of cavalry were swallowed up by the infantry of the victorious army almost in a short time, and the men and horses fell one after another......

In the Liao army camp in the distance, Xiao Gan couldn't believe what he saw. The north gate, which he thought he would be able to win in one battle, would have such a reversal. And the other Liao troops are still halfway at the moment, far from being able to press in front of the city gate! And what made him even more angry was that most of the drawbridge over the moat had been put away at this moment.

This means that the Liao army on the other side of the city gate is cut off from the main force under his command, and it will take a lot of time to come forward to rescue. And judging from the current battle situation, it is obviously impossible for the enemy to give himself so much time!

"How so? Obviously, everything before was so beneficial to me, and obviously seeing that Zhuozhou was about to be taken, how could such a change occur? Did his defenders anticipate it, so they deliberately prepared an ambush, or did they improvise? In an instant, Xiao Gan thought of the strange thought that had arisen in his heart before - he was facing two completely different opponents, one was radical and frivolous, and the other was steady and ruthless, and every blow could hit him in the vital point.

"Could it be that there are really two main generals in the defenders of Zhuozhou? How is this possible? "Xiao Gan can't believe such a ridiculous judgment, after all, this kind of practice of one army and two commanders will only make the soldiers have nothing to do, which is completely taboo in the army.

Xiao Gan couldn't figure this out, but he was completely right about one thing, that is, at this moment, the Feiyan cavalry at the city gate could no longer wait for the rescue of the follow-up soldiers and horses. Because there were bursts of killing sounds from inside the north gate of Zhuozhou at this time, the defenders inside finally arrived at this moment, and then bravely fought into the city gate cave and carried out the final elimination of the remaining enemies inside.

At this time, the Liao army left in the cave of the city gate was either injured or collapsed, and the number was less than a hundred. When he encountered the victorious army who killed angrily, he could hardly even show the slightest courage to resist, so he was killed instantly, and he didn't even have half of his life left.

Then these victorious troops took advantage of the situation to go straight out to kill, and their comrades who had already crushed the Liao army outside and had no power to fight back, and they killed the remaining more than 100 Liao cavalry at that time.

It was only at this time that the follow-up soldiers and horses of the Liao army surged up, but they were blocked by the wide moat, and they could only watch their robes being killed in front of them, but they could not do anything. Finally, in the face of the angry arrows of the Liao army, the officers and men of the Changsheng army retreated in an orderly manner. With a muffled bang, the city gate beyond the river closed again, which meant that the entire plan of the Liao army had failed, and everything was back to what it was before dark. It's just that there are thousands more corpses inside and outside the city.

This seemingly expected, but unexpectedly ended battle, completely subsided, and both the Chang Sheng army and the Liao army paid an extremely heavy price for their respective miscalculations. When the victorious army left the city, there were 3,000 elite soldiers, but they came back only about 1,300, and most of them were wounded. And the Liao army's losses looked even greater, it was a full 1,000 Feiyan horses, for Xiao Gan, it was completely the result of stealing chickens and rice.

Xiao Gan's face darkened, and for the first time, he rode his horse to the moat, and his gloomy gaze pierced through the night, looking at the city head over there, as if he wanted to see clearly what kind of person the main general of the defenders in the city was through this move.

At the same time, Dong Kuang stood in front of Sun Tu with guilt and self-blame, and hugged his fists again and again: "General Sun, if you didn't lead someone to take action this time, I'm afraid that my Zhuozhou would have fallen." It's ridiculous that I thought I could expand the results of the battle, and I'm really ashamed......" He said, and suddenly bowed his knees.
