Inside the north gate is a crossroads,

It is said that the really important street is only the north avenue of Yuzhou City, and the two roads in the east-west direction are the access roads at the foot of the city wall, which can only be used for walking.

However, this structure makes the space inside the north gate much larger than the streets of the city.

The thieves used the space here to line up the infantry,

In front, a row of thieves held large shields nearly one person tall to block the exit of the North Avenue, and the crossbowmen kept pouring in from outside the city gates.

The thief's shield was full of arrows, and most of the arrows released through the smoke just now were blocked.

And the thieves have not fought back with crossbows, and have been letting Lan Ziyi appear in the field of vision,

At this time, it was too late to retreat, and the thief Kou put down a round of crossbow arrows, which was enough for Lan Ziyi and them to drink a pot.

Seeing this, Tao Zhulu hurriedly said to Lan Ziyi:

"Wei Hou! There are many crossbowmen, and the threat to us is too great.

Before the thieves could make a move, let me lead the cavalry of the Tiger Battalion to rush over, and the soldiers of the forbidden army followed, and the thieves must not be allowed to release the arrows. “

兰子义 says:

"No!

The thief didn't fight back just now, he deliberately put us so close,

Now that the fireworks are so loud that you can't see what's lurking behind the thieves, it's too dangerous for you to rush over like this. “

桃扵鹿 says:

"It's too late if you don't rush now, the thieves have already started to wind up now."

Sure enough, the thief leaned behind the shieldman, bent down to step on the crossbow, and mounted the arrow, which would soon be released according to this momentum.

Lan Ziyi grabbed Tao Zhulu's arm and said:

"The wound on your body has just been stitched up, and if you rush again, you will die!"

Tao Zhulu still wanted to speak, but there was no time, and the thief had already begun to level the crossbow machine and prepare to fire a salvo.

The general of the forbidden army camp saw that Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhulu could not get a result from arguing, and he couldn't wait for himself to order:

"Spread out to both sides of the street."

But the entire city of Yuzhou was set on fire, there were walls of fire on both sides of the street, and the forbidden army that had infiltrated from both wings had already occupied a place that could be accommodated.

The bowstring was loosened, causing ripples in the air around it, and the arrows flew in the air, scorched by the flames in the air, and the roast itself glowed red.

The red light flew towards the target after drawing a low arc, but it was not the official army led by Lan Ziyi who was hit by the arrow, but the thief crossbowman who was about to release the arrow.

The thieves only cared about defending the south side, and did not care about the passages under the walls of the east and west sides.

However, there was indeed no one on the streets on both sides just now, but the smoke and dust are so big, who can guarantee that they can see clearly?

The arrows were released from the streets under the eastern walls.

There is no shield protection on the flanks of the thieves, and there is no defense against this move, this round of salvo can only be taken as ordered.

The full-focused thief crossbowman was originally aiming at Lan Ziyi and them in front of him, and the arrows flying from the side hit them just right.

Those who were lucky were hit in the arms and ribs, and those who were unlucky were directly blocked by an arrow.

The thief was so stunned by the shooting that he could barely tell where the attack came from for a moment.

However, the officers and soldiers in the smoke on the east side fired several rounds in a short period of time.

After several rounds of hard work, the thieves figured out that they were being attacked from the flank, and hurriedly mobilized men to target the eastern passage.

But it was too late, the cavalry of the Forbidden Army on foot had already been killed from the smoke and dust, the blades were burned red by the fire, and even the sound of scorched flesh could be heard when slashing at people.

Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhulu saw that the formation of thieves was chaotic, and hurriedly led the three hundred cavalry of the Jihu battalion to charge over.

Originally, the thief shield bearer was holding a spear, but the left flank was shocked and the thief was panicked, and the shield was not as tight as it was just now.

Lan Ziyi and the others took advantage of the situation to rush, and the thief shield player failed to organize an effective front to defend.

The three hundred cavalry were divided into several rows, like a tidal wave, breaking through the shield defense line of the thieves and entering the rear of the line, and the hungry and thirsty saber could finally taste the taste of blood at this time, and the shame of being surrounded by Dangyang could now be regarded as finding an opportunity to vent.

The thieves basically have no armor, and they can only end up in a different place when they look at the head by the round saber.

The soldiers of the forbidden army also joined the battle, and the originally small space in the north gate was crowded with so many people.

But this kind of crowding was obviously more beneficial to the officers and troops led by Lan Ziyi, for the simple reason that the officers and soldiers in the city had an advantage in numbers, and they also caught the thieves off guard with this flank charge.

Not long after the thieves entered the city, in order to deal with Lan Ziyi, most of the crossbowmen they sent in.

The crossbowman faced the fierce and vicious cavalry and the soldiers of the forbidden army who rushed towards him was the fate of being chopped and chopped vegetables.

The crossbowmen who were drowned in the sea of forbidden soldiers were all cut down to the ground in a few moments,

Those who were lucky enough to be near the gate turned around and fled out of the city.

But the thieves outside the city began to pour into the city when they heard the sound of shouting and killing in the city.

In this way, a group of people blocked the city gate, unable to advance or retreat.

Originally, at this time, as long as you dismounted, took a long lance, lined up in the city gate, and stabbed forward, you could block all the thieves outside.

Kelan Ziyi didn't let the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion who entered the city take the lance this time, he thought that the streets in the city were narrow and the buildings were numerous, and he couldn't use the lance with him, and he just came in to maintain order, and he wouldn't really fight. Now it seems that there was indeed a miscalculation.

But at this time, I really don't have time to think about these things anymore.

The cavalry of the Jihu battalion was blocked by the infantry that followed behind, and it was impossible to use it, and it was not suitable for blocking the city gate, so it had to be withdrawn at this time.

So Lan Ziyi ordered to the forbidden army camp general beside him:

"Bring your men to block the city gates, get out of the way of the streets to the west, and let the cavalry withdraw."

The battalion general seemed to have obeyed Lan Ziyi, and after hearing the order, he did not hesitate, nodded and dismounted.

The crowd was too tight and chaotic for orders to be carried out effectively, but the battalion commander roared and commanded his men to get out of the way of the western passage and squeeze into the city gates.

Lan Ziyi rushed to the front, and at this time struggled to squeeze to the west, and finally withdrew without stepping on his own people.

After the cavalry was put in order, Lan Ziyi heard the soldiers of the forbidden army blocking the door cheering each other:

"Come on, brother, cut the thieves out!"

Lan Ziyi asked in a remote voice:

"How many thieves are there?"

A forbidden soldier replied:

"I can't see it clearly."

Lan Ziyi turned his head and said to Tao Zhulu next to him:

"You take the cavalry here and stand by."

Then he shouted to the Forbidden Army in the back and to the Forbidden Army in the east:

"The good bows and arrows of the others, go with me to the wall."

桃扵鹿 says:

"Young master, I'll go with you."

兰子义 says:

"Your injuries are not healed, you can rest. There are no thieves on the city wall, so I'll just go up with the rabbits. ”

Hearing what Lan Ziyi said, Tao Zhutu hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and organized the forbidden army to climb from the stairs to the city wall.

At this time, a question came from the east:

"Who is there to command? Why should I listen to you? ”

Lan Ziyi immediately returned:

"I'm Weiting Hou Lan Ziyi, as long as you are the forbidden army in the city, you have to listen to me.

Now give me the wall. “

After that, he turned over and dismounted, and climbed up the city wall with Tao Zhutu.

Ascending the city wall, the entire Yuzhou City is in view,

The smoke from the fire gathered around him, and the flames were almost within reach.

From the north gate tower, the fire in the northwest of the entire Yuzhou city is the most fierce, and there is also a fire in the northeast, but it is relatively small, and there are only a few beacon fires in the south of the city, and the fires have been extinguished.

Sure enough, there were few forbidden troops stationed in the north of the city, and the most thieves infiltrated them.

After this fire, how many things are left in Yuzhou City?

Lan Ziyi looked at the city, thinking a little distracted, and Tao Zhutu patted his shoulder to make Lan Ziyi come back to his senses.

Peach Rabbit shouted:

"Young Master!"

Lan Ziyi hurriedly turned around and came to the outside of the city, looking down, there were thieves crowding outside the city gate in the dark.

Lan Ziyi hurriedly ordered:

"Shoot the arrows!"

The soldiers of the forbidden army had already occupied the battlements on the city wall, and the horses around the city gate were also full of forbidden troops, and after hearing Lan Ziyi's order, they all took their bows and arrows and fired arrows at the crowd outside the city gate.

The sound of arrow feathers crossing the night sky is like spring rain falling to the ground, but the spring rain landing moistens the vast land, and the arrow rain sets off a bloody rain.

There is only a wall between the inside and outside of the city, but it is like heaven and earth, with a sea of purgatory fire on one side and darkness on the other.

The thieves are like flying insects in the dark, just seeing the light of the fire in the hole in the city gate and rushing to the ground like crazy.

The arrow feathers fell from the sky on the heads of the unprepared, and in an instant they wailed all over the field,

Because the thieves were huddled together and had no formation, they suffered heavy losses after being covered by the rain of arrows, and in the darkness people did not even know which part of their bodies were hit by arrows, but could only feel the pain of their flesh being torn and the blood trickling out.

The forbidden army in the city gate blocked the door and slashed with a knife,

The crossbowmen crowded in the middle had already been hacked to death, and the thieves who followed behind were engaged in close combat with the forbidden army.

The place in the door hole is narrow, there is no room to maneuver, and there is no room to dodge, you can only slash with one knife and one by one.

Although the thieves are not afraid of death, they have no armor, and they have tasted all the hardships in such a primitive battle.

The thief's knife slashed off the forbidden army's body, but the forbidden army's knife slashed on the thief's body and set off a burst of blood mist.

The forbidden army that could not get close to the outside of the door took out their bows and arrows, and shot them over the heads of the allies who were slashing in front of them, killing the thieves who followed behind.

Finally, the thieves couldn't hold on, and the thieves who rushed into the door suddenly began to turn around and flee, and those who were far away still had a chance to escape from the arrows shot from the city wall, and those who were close were chased by the forbidden army behind them or hit by the arrows at the head of the city, and gave their lives here.

Lan Ziyi looked at the thieves who were fleeing outside on the city wall, and shouted:

"Pass the order down, don't chase after the poor.

Order the soldiers of the forbidden army to retreat into the city, close the city gates, we will leave a few men to defend the city gates, and the rest will prepare reinforcements to the west gate. “

After hearing the order, the soldiers on the side passed Lan Ziyi's words downstairs one by one,

The forbidden army that had chased them out of the city slowly retreated,

When the battalion under the city saw that the men were about to retreat, they ordered the sergeant to close the gate again, and at this moment a sharp-eyed sergeant pointed to the hill to the east and said:

"Look! There's a fire there! ”

Lan Ziyi followed the prestige, and there was indeed a little spark on the mountain in the northeast, as if it was a series of torches, and something else was ignited.

At this time, a person slapped his thigh and scolded:

"Oops! My horse! ”
