Under the cover of night, the sound of killing shook the sky!

Wang Neng fled all the way to the east with the remnants, thousands of thieves and remnants of the soldiers fled all over the mountains and fields under the night, all of them were in panic all day long, constantly letting out terrified howls, and even some of the routs kept collapsing, sitting directly on the ground and crying, and in the blink of an eye, they were knocked down by their companions who caught up from behind, and were trampled to death by countless pairs of feet!

Wang Neng was also fleeing for his life in the crowd, like a flat boat drifting with the tide, there was no way to grasp the direction of his own progress, he could only roar loudly in vain, if it weren't for the hundreds of henchmen around him to escort him all the way, it is estimated that Wang Neng would have been trampled to death by the rout.

Along the way, Wang Neng tried to lead the brigade to flee north, wanting to escape back to Mengyin County. But no one listened to Wang Neng at all, everyone just ran for their lives by instinct, and they were all running with the crowd, and no one paid attention to the direction of progress.

Suddenly, the rout in front of the crowd heard a roar, and then an army of iron cavalry rushed out of the night, like an army of death in hell, and crashed into the rout!

"Boom!"

Zhou Zongsheng led more than 1,600 iron horsemen to crash into the rout of the thieves, riding horses and trampling countless thieves in the dark night, trampling one thief after another into pulp.

Wang Neng also heard the sound of the iron cavalry sweeping in front of him at this time, and his heart was also terrified, and he hurriedly ran towards the north with hundreds of henchmen around him, which was able to avoid the massacre of Zhou Zongsheng's department.

Looking at the army of iron cavalry passing by, Wang Neng almost fainted in fright, and even had a feeling in his heart that there was no way to enter the heavens and the earth.

At this time, Wang Neng didn't care about rectifying the people, and fled directly to the north with hundreds of henchmen around him, and the thieves and soldiers on the left also followed one after another when they saw this.

At this time, the night was thick, and Zhou Zongsheng could not find Wang Neng's location in the chaotic rout tide, so he could only lead the cavalry to kill the young and strong troops towards the place where the rout soldiers gathered, so as to end the battle as soon as possible.

"Kill! Kill! ”

Zhou Zongsheng roared loudly, and the cavalry behind him was strong and killed, and he didn't even need to wave the weapon in his hand at all, as long as he trampled on the horse, he could kill the thieves and rout.

In this way, more than 1,600 young and strong cavalry troops slaughtered thousands of thieves, adding an even more terrifying scene to the night.

Half an hour later, the entire battlefield slowly fell silent, and all the thieves who were like a tide had been wiped out at this time, except for the thousands of soldiers who fled for their lives in the night, most of the remaining thieves and soldiers died here.

And Zhou Zongsheng's department was also exhausted at this time, more than 1,600 young men fought overnight, although it was a sudden attack, but the thieves and thieves were also numerous, at this time it was not easy to achieve such a result, all the young men were exhausted, and Zhou Zongsheng was powerless even if he wanted to pursue.

So, while commanding his subordinates to clean up the battlefield and find Wang Neng's whereabouts, Zhou Zongsheng reported to Liu Juntao and requested that the Central Military Department or Zhang Xiaojun's headquarters continue to pursue the remaining thieves.

On the sheep intestine road leading to Mengyin County, thousands of thieves and soldiers ran wildly with all their might, Wang Neng was also among them, at this time, like everyone, there was only one thought left in his heart to live, and the others were no longer taken care of, just like a large group of lost dogs.

At this time, Wang Neng only felt that his feet were like falling on a big stone, but he was still running mechanically, and he felt as if he was about to die.

"Liu Juntao! Yes! ”

Wang Neng was extremely sad and indignant in his heart, and couldn't help but roar out loudly, eager to burst the night sky and dissipate this long dark night.

It didn't take long for the thieves to flee to the territory of Mengyin County, which was not far from the county seat of Mengyin County.

And Wang Neng and the other thousands of thieves staggered at this time, and stopped in the wilderness, as if they were a group of tired ghosts, snorting and panting.

"Fortunately, the people of Yushan Town didn't catch up!"

Wang Neng secretly rejoiced in his heart.

However, before the king could be happy, the thieves saw in the distance the dark night in the south "a little starlight", accompanied by the sound of iron horses galloping.

"Run!"

Wang Neng roared, dragged his already exhausted body, and began to run for his life again, and the surrounding thieves and soldiers did the same, all fleeing in the direction of the county seat of Mengyin County.

But there are also hundreds of thieves who can't run anymore, and they are all paralyzed on the ground and no longer fleeing for their lives, obviously preparing to resign themselves to fate.

It didn't take long for Zhou Zongsheng, who received Liu Juntao's order to continue the pursuit, led his troops to kill, and after "solving" the hundreds of thieves, Zhou Zongsheng led more than 1,500 iron cavalry under his command to continue the pursuit, all the way to the direction of the county seat of Mengyin County.

In less than half an hour, Zhou Zongsheng led his troops to the city of Mengyin County, and at this time Wang Nengzheng led thousands of thieves into the city.

I saw thousands of thieves and soldiers crowded together at the south gate of Mengyin County, crying and shouting to push each other, and even drawing knives at each other, just to enter the city as soon as possible to survive.

Zhou Zongsheng couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately laughed and said, "Haha! Brothers, the battle is in hand! Rush down with me and kill! ”

More than 1,500 young men of the cavalry roared angrily, and rushed directly behind Zhou Zongsheng, and the iron cavalry army was like a sharp sword suddenly stabbed out in the night, aiming at the south gate of Mengyin County, and plunged straight up, making Ye Zongliu, who was observing the situation at the head of the city, scatter!

"Close the gates! Hurry up and close the gates! ”

At this time, Wang Neng, who had just entered the city, came over, and suddenly heard Ye Zongliu's roar, and was also startled, so he hurriedly stepped forward, and just about to persuade one or two, he saw Zhou Zongsheng's iron cavalry who was charging, and he was suddenly startled, and he was almost paralyzed on the ground.

"Close! All the archers are here! ”

Wang Neng was more ruthless than Ye Zongliu, not only to close the city gate, but also to gather all the only more than 100 archers in the city, aiming at the south gate is to shoot fiercely, regardless of whether it was his own defeated army or the iron cavalry of Yushan Town gathered outside the south gate.

"Ahh

"Open the door!"

"It's all your own brothers, don't kill me!"

Listening to the screams outside the city, the thieves and horses in the city did not have the slightest mercy, and still closed the south gate, and put up three heavy latches, and the archers on the city also struggled to release their arrows without the slightest stagnation.

At this time, Zhou Zongsheng had already led his troops to rush outside the city gate, and the thieves gathered here scattered one after another, and no one dared to stop them at all.

But Zhou Zongsheng saw that the south gate of Mengyin County had been closed, so he waved the horsewhip in his hand heavily and shouted: "Withdraw!" Go back! ”

More than 1,500 young men of the cavalry department did not stop, followed Zhou Zongsheng and withdrew, and disappeared into the vast darkness in a blink of an eye.

"Whew!"

Seeing that Zhou Zongsheng's iron cavalry had withdrawn, Ye Zongliu and Wang Neng breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, the two looked at the rout outside the city gate, and saw that there were only more than 2,000 thieves left outside the gate.

"Let the brothers come in!"

Ye Zongliu muttered, Wang Neng nodded, and turned around and left without saying a word.

Early the next morning, Liu Juntao, Zhang Xiaojun, and Zhou Zongsheng led the Central Military Department and other three troops to rush to the city.

Ye Zongliu and Wang Neng hadn't slept all night, but after hearing the news, they both hurried to the head of the city to watch the battle, and at the same time ordered all the horses in the city to prepare for the battle of defending the city.

Liu Juntao rode on the war horse and looked from afar, only to see that the head of Mengyin County was full of thieves and horses, and it was obvious that Ye Zongliu's thieves were ready to fight.

So, Liu Juntao said to Zhang Xiaojun and Zhou Zongsheng beside him: "Everyone fought all night last night, let's set up camp first, wait for the reinforcements from Qingzhou Mansion to arrive, and it's not too late for us to attack the city again!" ”

At that moment, Liu Juntao led his troops to retreat five miles and set up a large camp, and at the same time counted the results of last night's fierce battle.

In this battle, only a few thousand of the 30,000 thieves in Wang Neng's department remained, more than 20,000 people were beheaded by the Yushan Town Guard, and the 110,000 thieves in Mengyin County were only more than 80,000 at most at this time.

Last night, the various departments of the Yushan Town Guard lost a total of more than 300 young and strong people.

In the afternoon of the same day, Liu Juntao ordered the Investigation Department to urge reinforcements, and Liu Zi'an hurriedly arranged for his subordinates to rush to Qingzhou Mansion to ask for reinforcements.
