Soon, the news that Puyang City would not let Yuncheng grain soldiers leave the city spread all over the barracks, which caused more dissatisfaction among the soldiers, and they were discussing in groups in the camp.

At this time, Ma Zong quietly beckoned a group of grain soldiers and chiefs to discuss in his tent.

"Brothers, who doesn't have a wife and children, and our soldiers have no status in the army, which month's military salary is not deducted by the officials? Today's grain is here, I don't want to be trapped in the city, it is said that there are 350,000 Jin troops besieging the city outside the city, there are few soldiers in the city, and the city is broken, so why don't we be buried here with the Puyang army? Ma Zong said sensationally, and these words caused the soldiers and chiefs of Yuncheng to say yes, and they were extremely dissatisfied with being trapped here.

"Brother Xiaoma, you usually treat your brothers well, and my brothers also obey you, what do you say? I'll just follow. An older chief said.

"Yes, yes! We all listen to Little Pony. The attitudes of several elders were agreed in a split second.

"Good! Anyway, Ma didn't want to wait for death here, so he took his brothers to fight. In fact, it is not difficult, after everyone went back, they said to their brothers, eat more at night, and when the Puyang defenders at the east gate were not ready to eat, we grabbed the east gate, went out of the city and went home, to see who dared to stop me and wait. ”

"Okay, just do it according to Brother Xiaoma's idea, there is nothing that the brothers don't want to."

"Okay, you wait for each of you to go back and prepare, and wait for my password to grab the door at night."

After the chief left, Su Dingfang and Ma Sanbao were transferred out of the account.

"Brother Dingfang, when the city gate was in turmoil tonight, Brother Wei went to Lei Datong to report and pushed him to block the gun in front, and he didn't dare to disobey it." Ma Sanbao said to Su Dingfang.

"Hmmm! The elder brother went by himself, in short, the more chaotic the East Gate, the better, and the younger brother also took advantage of the chaos to kill the East Gate guards, so that his thousands of guards were in chaos. After Ma Zongxian's brother opened the door, he lit a torch, and General Wu Tianxi arrived immediately outside the city. At that time, the brethren flashed out of the road, and Mo was hit by the cavalry and horses. ”

"Huh! Although Brother Su was relieved, the younger brother wrote it down. ”

As the sky darkened, the soldiers of the Yuncheng Mansion stationed near the East City Gate began to be restless and gathered towards the East City Gate. Ma Zong and Su Dingfang mixed in the crowd and followed the flow of people towards the city gate.

Such a movement had already alarmed the Puyang defenders stationed on the city wall of the East City Gate, and a small colonel guarding the city hurriedly ran into the city tower to report to the deputy general guarding the gate.

"What? Are you saying that the soldiers of the Yuncheng Prefecture who brought in the grain might rush out of the city? How is this possible, doesn't their leading generals care? Go with so-and-so to see. ”

The middle-aged lieutenant hurriedly put down the wine glass in his hand, and after a drink, he went down to the city and came to the city gate. Sure enough, what appeared in front of him was a large number of people, who were gradually approaching the city gate, so he hurriedly ordered: "Quickly set up the barricades, all the troops come forward, and do not let the Yuncheng soldiers approach the city gate." Hurry up and report to the Shuaifu. ”

Under the command of this deputy general, a wooden fence blocking the road was quickly set up at the city gate, and dozens of Puyang defenders stood behind the wooden fence with guns to prevent the Yuncheng government soldiers from approaching the city gate.

In just a breather, thousands of Yuncheng soldiers crowded in front of the wooden fence and stopped, and formed a confrontation with the Puyang soldiers defending the city in front of the city gate, and no one retreated.

"You must retreat quickly, and this official must not open the city gate for you without an order from the peak." The deputy general defending the city shouted loudly to the Yuncheng soldiers who were rushing to his eyes.

"I'm waiting for the Yuncheng grain guards to transport grain here to help you guard this city, and now that the grain has been put into storage, it is time to let me go back to Yuncheng to pay the order, why are we detained here? Now there is no Jin army outside the city, so open the city gate quickly and let me go home. I heard a voice in the Yuncheng Mansion soldiers scolding, ushering in a burst of echoing voices.

"Without an order, the official can't let him go, disperse quickly, don't make trouble."

"Brothers, why are you talking to him, the city gate is right in front of me, and I will go out of the city and go home, and my wife and children are still looking forward to me coming home! Chong ah---" Just when the two sides were facing off extremely tensely, I don't know who it was in the Yuncheng Mansion soldiers, and suddenly shouted loudly.

As if they had received an escape order, thousands of people rushed to the gate behind the wooden fence like a flood that opened the floodgates. In just an instant, the lieutenant general guarding the city and dozens of guards around him were knocked to the ground.

In the chaos, I don't know who actually stuck a dagger knife into the chest of the adjutant general, and the adjutant slowly fell to the ground with stunned eyes, and was immediately trampled by thousands of people.

"What? The soldiers of the Yuncheng Mansion at the East City Gate mutinied? Why didn't the Lei Commander restrain his subordinates? Feng Deyi heard the urgent report of Lei Datong, the commander of Yuncheng who came in in a hurry to report, and immediately became so angry that his beard turned up, and he loudly questioned Lei Datong, who was silent on the side.

"Lord Taishou, it's not that my general didn't stop it, but all the government soldiers are from all counties in Yunzhou, and each team of government soldiers has a general who commands the army, how have they ever seen such a battle, and they are only worried that their lives are in danger. Moreover, he and others only came to transport grain, but in fact they were the people of various counties, and the gains and losses of Puyang City had nothing to do with him at all, and each family had a family and hoped that they would return home after completing their errands as soon as possible. At this time, Mo said that Lei was in control, even the lord of Yunzhou Prefecture could not suppress the hearts of the government soldiers here. Please open the gates and let us go home. Ma Sanbao, the deputy general behind Lei Datong, saw that the chief officer was asked, so he stepped forward and said loudly. Several other lieutenant generals were also indignant, and echoed Ma Sanbao's words, as long as they went home.

When Feng Deyi heard this, he was so angry that he trembled, and he was speechless for a while, but he just pointed to these Yuncheng grain officials, "You, you, you ---" and said for a long time, but it didn't become a whole sentence.

"Report to your lord, more than 10,000 Yuncheng soldiers gathered at the East City Gate, and they all said that they wanted to break through the pass, and Wang Duwei was afraid that he couldn't stop it." Suddenly, a junior colonel rushed into the Shuai's mansion and shouted a loud report. For a while, the generals in the Shuai Mansion were stunned.

"Lord Feng, make a decision quickly. Either immediately open the door and let him wait out, or immediately increase the troops at the east gate to suppress the mutiny. Late will change! Dongfang Huang admonished loudly.

"General Dongfang, quickly go to the barracks in the city and order 20,000 soldiers to the east gate to suppress."

"Yes." After Dongfang Huang received the general's order, he hurriedly left the marshal's mansion with the deputy general Dongfang Bo to transfer troops to the barracks.

"Feng Taishou, this official also quickly went to the east gate to persuade his subordinates not to move." Lei Datong stepped forward and said.

"Hmmm! You wait for all the generals of Yuncheng to go to the east gate to greet the soldiers of the headquarters and not to storm the city gate, and the violators will be beheaded immediately. Feng Deyi turned his head and scolded these Yuncheng grain officials.

After hearing this, Lei Datong had to clench his fists and salute, and hurriedly left the Shuai Mansion.

"Lord Commander, now that the crowd is angry and wants to go home, and I don't want to die in this city, how can I convince my subordinates. It's better to take advantage of the situation and rush out of the city and go straight back to Yuncheng, and the state capital will not blame us and others. On the way, Ma Sanbao said to Lei Datong.

"Shut up! Let's go and see what is going on, and if we have already broken through the gates, I'll leave as soon as I go. If the gates are not yet opened, we should do our best to persuade our men not to move, lest they be killed. ”

Hearing Lei Datong's words, all the generals nodded in approval, and hurriedly rushed to the east city gate.

It's just that at this time, there was already a big chaos at the east city gate, and the more than 1,000 Puyang defenders who rushed from the city wall to block it were powerless under the impact of nearly 10,000 people. No one dared to use knives and guns to stop them easily, so they had to let go of the avenue, and the already crazy government soldiers of Yuncheng opened the east city gate and rushed out.

Ma Zong and Su Dingfang, who had already left the city gate, looked at each other and smiled, and hurriedly ordered more than ten relatives around them to take out the torches that had been prepared, and quickly lit them and waved them at the dim wilderness outside the city.

After a while, Ma Zong and the others felt the tremor of the earth, and then there were bursts of horses' hooves in their ears.

"Brother Xian, quickly let everyone avoid quickly, General Wu Tianxi's horse team is already close." Su Dingfang could tell from the sound of horses' hooves that at least 30,000 elite cavalry were swarming in. Hurriedly called Ma Zong beside him.

At the same time, there were also bursts of alarm gongs on the head of the city and the panicked screams of the Puyang soldiers defending the city who "the Jin army is coming, close the city gate".

The soldiers of Yuncheng Mansion, who were rushing out of the city, became even more panicked when they heard this, and squeezed towards the city gate even more desperately. The soldiers on both sides who tried to close the gates could not move at all.

At this moment, Lei Datong and others rushed to the East City Gate, and they were helpless in the face of the out-of-control scene, and could only watch the crowd fleeing frantically. Even if you hear the sound of gongs and shouts from the Puyang defenders on the city, there is nothing you can do.

"Lord Commander, what are you waiting for? The Jin army and horses are coming soon, and the city gate can't be closed at all, are you still waiting for Dongfang Huang to send troops to come and kill me? It's better to rush out of the city and avoid the siege Jin army and flee for your life! Seeing this, Ma Sanbao hurriedly said.

"Hey! Since the city gate is already in chaos, staying here is in vain, I am afraid that there is still a risk of life, it is better to rush out and escape, go! Lei Datong was originally a military general, very good at seeing opportunities, seeing that his soldiers and horses were out of control, and he had the greatest burden on him, he immediately decided to go out of the city and flee for his life. He led his men to march forward and merge into the flow of people who rushed outward, and from time to time there were government soldiers who made a way for them. Ma Sanbao and the others rushed to the outside of the city very smoothly, and saw that the cavalry of the Jin army not far away had approached the city gate.

"Lord Commander, quickly order our soldiers to avoid the cavalry on both sides and get out of the city gate avenue, otherwise they will all die together." Ma Sanbao shouted loudly to Lei Datong again.

"Quick, let's get out of the way to the sides." Lei Datong had already felt the strangeness of the development of things at this time, but the matter had come to this point, so he had to ask the guards around him to hurry up and give orders.

"Close the gates, close the gates. The archers in the city prepared to release arrows to prevent the Jin cavalry from approaching the city gate. Dongfang Huang hurried to the East City Gate with 20,000 infantry, but he was still a step late, the city gate was open at this time, and there were still many Yuncheng soldiers still rushing out.

"Haha! Death to those who stand in my way! Rush into the city for me. Crossbow arrows for me to shoot into the city. Wu Tianxi, who rushed to the front, shouted orders to Wu Lie, He Lun and other 8 generals beside him. Suddenly, the cavalry behind him pulled out their crossbows from their waists, and fired rows of crossbow arrows at the defenders of the city as they marched. At the same time, he used the middle road given by the soldiers who fled from Yuncheng to go straight to the open Puyang East City Gate. With the arrival of Wu Tianxi's 30,000 cavalry, the government soldiers at the city gate have become much less, and the congestion at the city gate is not as good as it was at the beginning.

Inside the city gate, Dongfang Huang's men and horses are now fighting with more than 1,000 soldiers such as Ma Zong and Su Dingfang.

One side should take advantage of the Jin army's cavalry to reoccupy and close the city gate; One side turned its back to the city gate to block the siege of Puyang reinforcements in the city and in the city, and tried to protect the city gate. The two sides fought in one place for a while, and the scene was fierce.

"Lei Commander will go first, my brother Ma Zong has not left the city yet, and he will go to pick him up at the end." After that, Ma Sanbao didn't care whether Lei Datong agreed or not, and led the hundreds of people in his headquarters who had not yet run away to turn around and rush into the city again.

"Lord Commander, this Ma Sanbao's behavior is suspicious, most likely he provoked the chaos and dedicated the city gate, the Jin army has arrived, go quickly." A guard flag officer beside him said to Lei Datong.

"Humph! The official has already seen the wrongdoing, alas! Let him go! Let's go. After that, Lei Datong Le Ma led everyone along the Puyang city wall to the south to avoid the Jin cavalry that was already close at hand, and the soldiers who were left behind had even met with the Jin cavalry, but Wu Tianxi's cavalry didn't care about these Yuncheng soldiers who fled out, let them go, and their cavalry brigade only cared about a line to rush into the east gate of Puyang.

"Brother Xiaoma, the cavalry of the Jin army rushed in."

"Oh? Quickly get out of the way of the brothers and get out of the way to the sides. ”

As he spoke, he saw the cavalry of the Jin army holding a long lance constantly rushing out of the hole in the city gate, and they ignored the more than 1,000 people under Ma Zong who were dressed as government soldiers, and rushed straight to the regular defenders of Puyang City.

"Brother Sanbao, Brother Ma Xian, go with a certain to see General Wu Tianxi." After Su Dingfang swung his knife and killed a Puyang soldier in front of him, he grabbed Ma Zong and Ma Sanbao, who were still slashing and killing, and said.

I saw that the Puyang defenders in front of them were constantly retreating in the face of the strong impact of the elite cavalry of the Jin army, and they had disengaged from the soldiers of the Ma brothers.

"General Wu, Dingfang is here to restore your life." Seeing a general holding a gilded pistol approaching, Su Dingfang had already recognized Wu Tianxi from the weapon, and stepped forward and shouted urgently.

"Woo ---" Hearing Su Dingfang's voice, Wu Tianxi hurriedly pulled the reins of the horse, stopped, and looked at Su Dingfang and the others in the dim light on the side of the road.

"Good Su Lie, well done! Ben is going to wait for you to wait in front of the lord to ask for credit. These two are the Ma brothers you are talking about, right? Well, they're all good guys. You wait to avoid the side first, General Rong Ben is saying that it is not too late to kill the defenders. ”

"Yes, General." After Su Dingfang agreed, he hurriedly stepped aside to avoid it.

"Wu Lie, take people up to the city tower and kill the archers in the city. He Lun rushed with the general and scattered the enemy troops under the city. ”

After Wu Tianxi finished the order, he suddenly became murderous, and with a swing of his fist, he killed the Puyang soldiers who were blocking in front of him.

"Big brother, our army is all infantry, how can we resist the cavalry of the Jin army? Withdraw! Dongfang Bo followed his brother Dongfang Huang to lead his troops to fight against the swarming lance-wielding cavalry, feeling more and more difficult, his foot soldiers were falling one by one in front of him, and his 20,000 horses were now less than 5,000.

"Alas! The east gate was lost, so he hurried to the Shuai Mansion with his brother to protect Lord Feng. With that, Le Ma turned around and didn't care about the life and death of the remnant foot soldiers, and took Dongfang Bo and ran in the direction of Shuaifu.

At this time, I saw that there were constantly people from other places in Puyang rushing to the east gate, but there were still many foot soldiers.
