"What time is it?"

In a large mansion that has been in and out of several places, many generals in armor are gathering here to discuss something eagerly.

Hearing the question, a general manager said, "General, it's almost time for Shen." ”

Liu Jianyi, who was asking, nodded, rubbed his hands excitedly, and said to himself: "The surnamed Luo promised that we would do it together at three moments, and I don't know how General Luo prepared there." ”

Mr. Bai smiled coldly: "Don't worry, Wang Shaoyu and Zhu Youhua are fighting with the rebels at the head of the city, and the city is full of our people!" ”

"Hmm." Liu Jianyi nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked again: "What about the Yellow Tiger?" He is the garrison of Luoyang, where is he at the moment? ”

At the mention of this, everyone shook their heads in confusion.

"No, no, there's something wrong!" Liu Jianyi muttered: "That Huanghu is Zhu Youhua's cronies, and he has to be trusted more than Wang Shaoyu, he is not in the city to supervise the war, what can he do?" ”

Mr. Bai suddenly said: "Could it be that Luo Tai betrayed us?" ”

"No..."Liu Jianyi shook his head, "Many of Luo Tai's subordinates are also in Qilihe, he and Li Zicheng have no hatred or grudge, there is no need to fight like this." ”

"It's broken!"

Liu Jianyi slapped his thigh, "At that time, I thought, it was strange that Wang Chaoshan took the initiative to take the list, and now after taking the list, he doesn't even see a figure, and now it seems that this matter is not so simple!" ”

"What do we do now?" Mr. Bai asked.

Obviously, now you can't act according to the original plan, otherwise you are likely to be passive, Huang Hu is not in the city to supervise the battle, the only possibility is to mobilize troops and horses.

At this moment, maybe he's already on his way here!

Liu Jianyi thought about it, picked up the knife on the table, and said, "I can't wait any longer, go tell Luo Tai to do it in advance!" ”

Fighting, Li Zicheng also found that this east gate is indeed more difficult to beat than other doors.

Not only the various traps and traps arranged by Zhu Youhua and his people in advance, but also the city wall of the east gate is higher than the other three gates, and the moat is also wider.

As a result, if the army wanted to touch the city walls and gates, they had to use more people to carry wider logs to build bridges.

The army built a bridge under their noses, and the officers and soldiers were not blind, and there was no need for special orders from the generals and colonels, and everyone was greeted by ruthlessness.

In this way, with the increase of time, the casualties of the invading army began to increase linearly, and half of the moat was almost full of corpses, but the people behind were still endless.

But now that it's all fought to this point, wouldn't it be a waste of time and manpower to fight in another place, and besides, people who do it like this may not all agree.

No matter how much Li Zicheng wants to cut down Zhu Youhua immediately, the old way of attacking from all sides is obviously no longer advisable.

According to Li Zicheng's experience, once the casualties of the homeless people reach a critical value, even the old camp can't stand it.

Many times the defeat was like this, the old battalion was scattered by the collapsed homeless camp, and Li Zicheng in the rear could not even stop the rout, so he could only be defeated like a mountain.

In fact, this principle is the same as the Manchu Qing Dynasty's use of the Mongols as cannon fodder, and they will rush up at any cost.

Once a fierce battle breaks out, and when the casualties continue to increase, and there is no hope of defeating the opponent in the short term, these cannon fodder are likely to turn against their own side.

The old camp is Li Zicheng's foundation, even if he exchanges a hundred homeless people for one, it is a bloody and unprofitable deal for him.

"Pass the order, give up the feint attack of the remaining three gates, transfer back all the troops to concentrate on attacking the east gate, and don't shoot at the artillery with the officers and soldiers, give me a point!"

Watching several old battalion horse soldiers gallop away, Li Zicheng felt that the last moment was coming, and muttered to himself: "Gui Ying, you wait for me!" ”

......

"King Nanyang, look!"

Zhu Youhua, who was at the head of the city, suddenly received news that the bandits outside the remaining three gates had gradually withdrawn from the battle and all assembled outside the east gate.

This is not the combat style of the bandits in the past, Wang Shaoyu was surprised.

"The thieves gave up the remaining three gates, leaving only a blockade camp outside the three gates, and everyone else is here......" Wang Shaoyu gasped.

Zhu Youhua glanced at it, and he was also shocked.

As far as the eye can see, even the end of the line of sight is full of bandits waving the banner of "Chuang", they are crowded, shoulder to shoulder, and have the potential to connect the heavens and the earth.

, Li Zicheng is crazy?

In history, Li Zicheng's attack on Luoyang was so fierce?

"Bang bang bang-"

Before Zhu Youhua could react, there were suddenly countless lead bullets whistling by on the top of his head, which frightened him and hurriedly lay down under the battlements.

Wang Shaoyu ran over with a disgraced face and shouted loudly: "King Nanyang, Li Thief has transferred all the artillery to the east gate, and we can't raise our heads when we are pressed!" ”

"Nima, this thing is absolutely insane!"

The intrusive army concentrated all its artillery fire to bombard the eastern wall of Luoyang City, but abandoned the attack on the city gate, withdrew the rushing troops, and began to forcibly erect a wooden bridge over the moat.

"Kill the officers and soldiers!"

"Kill the officers and soldiers!!"

Countless bandits shouted trumpets, carrying ladders and desperately erecting ladders on the battlements, and ants climbed up one by one, and even the attack on the city gate was put on hold.

Originally, there were many opponents, but now it was this way of rushing at any cost, and soon, Zhu Youhua found that no tricks would work in this situation.

The difference in numbers was so great that now the officers and men on the city wall were to be used as five or six people, and soon, the emergencies of the various sections were reported like pieces of paper.

"King Nanyang, the urn city can't be defended!"

"Moon City is full of bandits, we don't have enough people, Moon City is going to be lost!"

This time, the bandits did not touch the city gate at all, and all their troops were devoted to repeatedly fighting with the officers and soldiers for the city wall.

At this time, under his own order, Liu Zongmin personally took the old battalion that had been recuperating for a long time in the rear.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The old battalions, dressed in uniform armor and armed with shiny long knives, joined the siege.

This is a group of new troops, and they are all battle-hardened bandits, and as soon as they come up, the officers and men who were struggling to support them soon cannot support them, and some parts of them begin to collapse.

......

The news of the emergency at the east gate spread throughout Luoyang like a wind.

There were more and more officers and soldiers scattered on the streets, and on the wall of the north gate, the soldiers sent by Wang Shaoyu were shouting anxiously.

"General Liu, General Wang has an order, the thief army is surrounding the east gate, and you can speed the people of your headquarters to reinforce the east gate, there must be no mistake!"

"Reinforcements?" Liu Jianyi smiled, hacked the soldier to death with a knife, and shouted around:

"That Wang Shaoyu sat back and watched my Qilihe brothers being surrounded but didn't save him when he saw death, this person is ruthless and unjust, why should I have to work for him?"

"It's better to go with me, meet the king, don't pay grain, everyone has a field to plant!"

As soon as he finished saying this, Huang Hu led people up to the north gate city wall and sneered: "King Nanyang expected that you would be rebellious, and it was true. ”

"At this time, if you are captured, I can still leave you a whole corpse!"

Liu Jianyi laughed and said, "Huang Hu, you are just a thousand generals, what qualifications do you have to take care of me, a guerrilla general?" ”

"Brothers, take down the Yellow Tiger and open the door to welcome the army into the city!"

The east gate is still fighting bloodily, but on the north gate, the officers and soldiers are fighting on their own.
