But this Wei Yan is so easy to be repulsed, his martial arts are already above Deng Xian, and he is even relying on several personal guards and dozens of elite soldiers to take the formation, just to prepare for a master. The longer it is delayed, the better. And standing under the city gate, the Yizhou soldiers and archers had nothing to do with him. And those Yizhou soldiers on the city wall didn't dare to rush down the city wall, otherwise what was waiting for them would be a rain of arrows!

Deng Xian was also helpless, so he could only let his subordinates take turns to fight, while calling someone to inform Zhang Ren.

"General Deng, General Zhang has an order, quickly repel the enemy army and rescue the east gate!"

"Got it!" Watching the heralds in the city come and go, Deng Xian also knew that Zhang Ren must be in trouble, otherwise he wouldn't be so desperate Cui. is to retreat to the side: "The archers on the city wall are covering, and the others all go outside the city to pursue the thieves!" Ground archers aim at the gates and shoot! ”

”

I can't care about the loss, I must recover the West Gate as soon as possible! Tens of thousands of people descended the city walls, and it was a truly spectacular sight. But Wei Yan's subordinates were not vegetarians, and the archers shot fiercely, killing and wounding countless people.

Wei Yan saw that it was almost over, and it would not be good to be stabbed in the back again, so he had to order a retreat, although he was reluctant but helpless.

However, while retreating, he did not forget to kill some enemy soldiers who had just come down from the city wall. Deng Xian paid the price of nearly 500 people to finally close the west gate. In order to prevent Wei Yan from going and returning, nearly 1,000 people were left to guard the West Gate, so he rushed to the East Gate with the rest of the soldiers to rescue.

Of course, Wei Yan refused to leave, he took more than 3,000 people and horses last night, and after crossing the mountains and mountains, he pulled down four or five hundred people, and nearly 1,000 people were killed and injured at one station during the day today. Now there are less than one thousand and five people who can fight, and it is impossible to storm the west gate, so they can only rest on the hillside outside the city while maintaining the pressure on the west gate.

As soon as Deng Xian brought someone to bring the Taishou Mansion in the city, a sentry came to report that the east gate had been broken! Deng Xian thought about it, and his more than 1,000 people continued to rescue the East Gate, but it was probably ineffective. So he hurried with his men and horses to the north gate.

Zhang Ren saw that Deng Xian was late, and his eyes were green. However, he knew that Deng Xian could not be blamed for this, so he asked: "General Deng didn't go to the rescue of the East Gate, why did he come here?" ”

"General, the East Gate has been lost. General Zhang Ren is requested to evacuate quickly!"

"What? So fast? Who attacked the east gate? ”

"The last general has been driving Wei Yan to the west of the city, Wei Yan has already left the city, but he just wanted to lead his troops back to the east gate, but it was too late. The enemy is strong, please General Zhang evacuate quickly! ”

"Don't withdraw! I swear to be with the city! Zhang Ren saw that Deng Xian didn't have time to rescue the East Gate, so he knew that he had miscalculated this time, and the East Gate was originally closed out, leaving only a thousand people to guard. Then 3,000 people were dispatched to increase the number of troops, and it is estimated that the city gate has been broken before they arrive, and the attack and defense are reversed, and the 3,000 people will definitely not be able to take the city gate.

"General......" While the two were talking, several groups of Jingzhou soldiers climbed the city wall. Deng Xian was about to persuade Zhang Ren to leave, but saw Zhang Ren wielding a long knife and struggling to kill the enemy.

The situation at the north gate of the city is actually not much better, originally the offensive and defensive sides were tug-of-war, like the two ends of a spring. With Zhang Ren personally in command, it seems to be evenly matched. Several times, Liu Cong alone ordered the troops to be withdrawn, after all, the casualties were too great!

But after Zhang Ren dispatched 3,000 elite soldiers to rescue the East Gate, the situation changed in an instant, and the balance of the spring was destroyed. Wave after wave of Jingzhou climbed over the city wall and came to the city, rushing to the city gate, they wanted to open the city gate and enlarge the army to enter.

And Zhang Ren had to send troops to deal with these people, and the defenders on the city wall became fewer and fewer. It's like a row of drain buckets, each bucket has a lid, and the lid was very tight, so that no matter if the wind and rain hit, or the sandstorm, the inside of the bucket can be safe and sound. Now it's eight lids and ten buckets.

When there were 10,000 defenders on the city wall, how many Jingzhou soldiers could be stopped and beaten back by the defenders in time, but now they will lose sight of one or the other. Seeing that more and more enemy troops entered the city, the defenders of the city began to loosen. Zhang Ren's hysterical shouts were also drowned in the tide of attack.

About an hour later, Yu Ban led his subordinates into the city smoothly, and then Liu Cong's army swarmed in. At the same time, the defenders of the city were attacked inside and outside the city. Once the goal was broken, the numerical superiority and combat effectiveness superiority of Liu Cong's army were completely reflected. Before the door was broken, the loss of Jingzhou soldiers to Yizhou soldiers was about two or three for one, and even four for some times, but now one can be exchanged for one, or even two.

With the fall of a large number of defenders, half an hour later, the defenders of the city finally collapsed. The remaining four or five thousand Yizhou soldiers chose to abandon their weapons and surrender. Zhang Ren completely became a bloody man, and was finally captured by Yu Ban. And Deng Xian slipped away quietly long before Yu Ban broke the door. He was willing to accept Zhang Ren's dispatch to fight a tough battle, but he didn't do anything about hitting a stone with an egg, and after persuading Zhang Ren to take advantage of this, he flew to the south gate.

When Yu Ban and his soldiers entered the Taishou Mansion, he was surprised to find that Dong Yun had already led people to take over the Taishou Mansion. Liu Cong was also taken aback when he came to Taishou Mansion!

"Hugh Zhao, what's going on?" According to the arrangement, Dong Yun should be with Zhang Song at the moment, responsible for raising grain and grass on the one hand, and pacifying the people along the way, but he didn't expect that he was the first to enter Ruocheng except Wei Yan.

Dong Yun smiled mysteriously and told the ins and outs of the matter. It turned out that Dong Yun's father, Dong He, that is, the Taishou of Brazil County, had always refused to express his position on Dong Yun's support for Liu Cong, and waited until Liu Cong declared war on Liu Zhang, and Dong Yun forcibly set off with more than 1,000 people who participated in the battle last time. Later, he first went to Hanzhong as a lobbyist and bribed Yang Song. Later, he and Zhang Song raised grain and grass along the way.

Just passing by Luofengpo, they found the traces of Wei Yan being ambushed and fighting a few days ago, and the two of them had already pondered that it should be the main army's army and Zhang Ren's defenders, for the sake of safety, Zhang Song escorted the grain and grass to the west. Dong Yun led 3,000 men and horses down Fengpo.

In case the enemy army has an ambush, the loss is only a few soldiers, as long as the food and grass are safe, it will be fine. Dong Yun led his men and horses all the way forward, only to find that the enemy army was not in ambush at all. When it was almost completed, the sound of killing was heard shaking the sky. Dong Yun wanted to kill the enemy and make meritorious service to help his father atone for his sins.

When I came to Xiongguan, I found that there were not many defenders at the pass, and they were very lax. At this time, it happened that Deng Xian was ordered to enter the city to expel Wei Yan. Only more than a thousand people remained, and they were leaderless. The most important thing is that Xiongguan is conspicuous, and there has been no enemy to attack, and the guards are naturally lax. Dong Yun had an idea, and he pretended to be reinforcements to enter the city. This Dong Yun is the son of Dong He, a famous man in Yizhou, and there are really guards who know him, it must be reinforcements, and it is from the east gate, presumably Zhang Ren asked for help from Brazil County, and Dong He sent it, so 3,000 people entered the customs smoothly.

After entering the customs, Dong Yun immediately slaughtered more than 1,000 soldiers guarding the customs. Then run to the east gate, and Liao Hua in the northeast corner is leading more than 1,000 people and two catapults to attack the east city wall. Attracted the attention of most of the defenders. Dong Yun didn't do too much because of this, and came to the east gate to take advantage of the old trick again, but less than half of them were deterred by the guards. Dong Yun immediately ordered a strong attack. There were originally more than 2,000 people at the East Gate, and more than 1,000 people were attracted by Liaohua.

The remaining more than 1,000 people were suddenly attacked by Dong Yun and others, and soon they couldn't support it, and sent people to Zhang Ren for help many times. By the time the reinforcements sent by Zhang Ren arrived, Dong Yun had successfully controlled the Chengkou City Gate, and all his generals climbed the east gate city wall and condescended to a scuffle. After all, the Yizhou soldiers were defeated and fled!

Dong Yun sent people to guard the city gate, and then rushed to the Taishou Mansion in the city, because at this time, Dong Yun also found that the wolf smoke was everywhere in the west of the city, and the lord sent people into the city to destroy it, so he wanted to respond.

Unexpectedly, Dong Yun had just sat down in the Taishou Mansion, and Yu Ban led the army to kill him, if Dong Yun hadn't appeared in time, he would have been killed as an enemy.

After listening to Dong Yun's statement, Liu Cong also shouted for Zhang Ren. However, in the end, this is Luocheng, and Liu Cong does not dare to relax.

"Wen Ze, quickly take someone to the West Gate to pick up Wen Chang and enter the city! Filial piety, you take people to the city, and each of them puts up notices to appease people's hearts. Pass the order: It is strictly forbidden to disturb the people, and those who violate the order will be beheaded! ”

It is inevitable that there are still enemy soldiers who have not escaped, and if they take the opportunity to make trouble, they will destroy their reputation. Therefore, Liu Cong let Fa Zheng go out, although he rectified the security in the city. Later, Liu Cong asked Liao Hua to take people to the west of the city to extinguish the fire.

Wei Yan entered the city and set fire to it in order to cause chaos in the city. Liu Cong couldn't have imagined that he would be able to take Luocheng so quickly, and now that Luocheng is under his hands, he naturally wants to extinguish the fire as soon as possible and reduce losses.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the generals came to the Taishou Mansion to resume their lives. With the help of Liao Hua and others, he successfully extinguished the fire in the city. Wei Yan was ordered to take over the city defense, of course, focusing on the east gate and the south gate. The law is posting notices on the streets and alleys of the city.

Because Liu Cong gave the death order, the Jingzhou soldiers did not loot and disturb the people. Some Yizhou soldiers who had never left wanted to loot in groups were also stopped in time. After the south gate was closed, the people of the city could no longer go out of the city.

Taking stock of the battle situation, Liu Cong's army together with Wei Yan. Dong Yun suffered a total of more than 9,000 casualties, of which Dong Yun and Wei Yanbu both exceeded 1,000. More than 6,000 enemy soldiers were killed and 8,513 were taken prisoner. More than 3,000 of them were captured after the city was breached, including all the soldiers stationed at the West Gate. Under the internal and external attacks of Yu Ban and Wei Yan, they wisely chose to surrender. The rest either ran away or hid with relatives and friends in the city.

Such a result, although the loss is a little larger, can quickly break through the city. Liu Cong was still very happy, especially Wei Yan and Dong Yun, who were unexpected, completely disrupted Zhang Ren's deployment, and were able to take Yucheng so smoothly. The reward for the two of them is naturally less compensated. But the most important thing next is to pacify the people in the city, and recruit prisoners and enemy generals!
