In the evening, when the last ray of light disappeared on the horizon, a group of Yan cavalry rushed outside Liangcheng, judging from the small flags they waved, it was a team of scouts returning from exploration.

After a while, the Yan army scouts marched to the outer city wall and used the flag to call their own number, so as to tell the defenders of the city that it was their own people.

As soon as the flag was lowered here, a small red flag was also waved on the wall over there, signaling that they could approach and answer.

"General Zhang, I'...... Are we going to get closer? Yan Zhuqiang, the leader, was calm, and communicated with Zhang Zicong, who was closely following him, in a voice so low that only he could hear.

Zhang Zicong was also a little uncertain in his heart, the reason why they chose to come at this time was mainly because this time point was the junction of day and night, and they appeared when the night was not completely dark, just to let the defenders in the city see them, and then use what they saw with their own eyes to tell them that there was no follow-up of any troops in the rear of the team that came back.

However, this is only a time difference, they only need to rub under the city for some time, the sky will be completely dark, and the Humeng cavalry who have been hiding outside the distant horizon can touch it quietly, and then at the moment when Yan Zhu and Zhang Zicong opened the city gate, they launched a surprise attack on Liangcheng with lightning speed, and with the foot power of Humeng horses, they completed the charge at this distance, but about dozens of breaths, such a short time, Zhang Zicong's team of eleven people can hold it no matter what.

Zhang Zicong let out a low "um", but the dagger in his hand unconsciously touched Yan Zhu's waist, the meaning was very clear, that is, to warn Yan Zhu not to mess around, because after crossing the outer wall, they had already entered the range of the bow and crossbow of the defenders in the city, and at this time, Yan Zhu only needed to reveal a little, then they would all die here.

It's a pity that he looked at Yan Zhu too highly, Yan Zhu, who was already nervous, was resisted by the sharp edge on his waist, and his heart was even more afraid, where was there still a little sense of anti-water, and obediently led Zhang Zicong and his party all the way to the inner city wall, looked up at the city, and shouted as much as possible in his previous domineering tone in Liangcheng: "Can't you recognize General Ben?" ”

Yan Jun in the city rubbed his eyes, because the light was too dim, he couldn't see the appearance of the person at all, so he had to reply carefully: "Forgive me for being clumsy, the sky is too dark to see clearly." ”

Although Yan Chai can pretend to be arrogant and domineering on weekdays, he has lost the courage he had at this time, so he can only tremble and give Zhang Zicong a look to the side, Zhang Zicong was almost angry with him, the previous arrangements for the relationship were all a waste of time, and the script did not follow the preset line, so he had no idea at all.

But fortunately, there is a backup plan, Zhang Zicong secretly said that he had saved his mind and prepared another set of plans, so he shook his head at Yan Zhu, signaled him not to speak, looked up at the city, and shouted in a voice completely different from his usual voice: "Open your eyes and take a closer look, this is your General Yan Zhuyan has returned." ”

Anyway, it has to delay time, so Zhang Zicong didn't finish his words once, which would make him appear too anxious and easy to arouse suspicion, and sure enough, when Yan Jun heard that it was Yan Zhu, he hurriedly asked: "Please General Yan forgive me, humiliation is just a duty, I have to interrogate one or two carefully." ”

After Yan Bing heard Yan Zhu's name, he was a little panicked, not because of how famous Yan Zhu was in the army, but because the top boss of these soldiers was Yan Zhu,

They all know that Yan Chai is an arrogant and domineering second lord, if anyone provokes him, he will definitely find all kinds of reasons to make things difficult in the future, and the most troublesome thing is that the uncle of this second lord is the governor of Dingzhou in Dingzhou City, with his uncle's support, no one in Dingzhou will take him.

"Can General Yan answer the question of the lowly position, if the answer is correct, the lowly position will immediately let the general enter the city." The soldier wanted to make a final confirmation, but waited for Yan Zhu's anger and gritted his teeth, "Okay! Okay very! Just ask. ”

After speaking, he immediately changed to a submissive expression, and smiled flatteringly at Zhang Zicong, as if to say, "Do you think I'm okay to say that?" ”

Zhang Zicong smiled back with an approving smile.

"May I ask General Yan, what is your favorite thing to do when you are on duty?" When the problems in the city came out, Yan Chai was affirmed by Zhang Zicong, so he became more and more free.

"Sleep!" A loud snort of anger vividly showed the anger that Yan Chai should have, and sure enough, when the soldiers in the city heard it, they immediately ordered to open the city gate, and took the initiative to ask Yan Chai for guilt, "General Yan is not strange, it is also the duty of the lowly position, please enter the city, and ask General Yan for the crime in person." ”

Yan Zhu didn't care if he asked for guilt or not, and the city gate that slowly opened made him breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and said in his heart: "I can finally survive." ”

Thinking about it, he clamped the horse's belly and was about to enter the city, but he was pulled by Zhang Zicong behind him, looked at him with an unkind expression, and then glanced at the back, indicating that the large army behind him had not yet touched it.

Yan Chai smiled a little embarrassedly, in fact, at the moment when the city gate was opened just now, he wanted to rush into the city, and then shouted that there was an attack by the Humeng army behind him, but it was a pity that this intention was caught by Zhang Zicong, who was paying attention to his state at any time, and then he also gave him a warning very unceremoniously.

Yan Chai had no choice but to continue pretending, "Heh! It's so majestic, this Liangcheng is what you have to enter if you let General Ben in, if you don't let General Ben in, you can't enter, I'm sorry, General Ben's temper has not been very good recently, so he is standing, bothering you to go to the Governor's Mansion and tell Yan Dudu, just say that his nephew was treated as a spy and stopped outside the city gate. ”

The Yan soldier complained bitterly in his heart, hurriedly ran down the city tower, came to Yan Zhu and knelt down in front of him, and said: "The humble position is really not clear to see the general's face, so he will make this decision, and ask the general to forgive the sin, and the general to forgive the sin." ”

Without waiting for Yan Zhu to reply, a burly "Yan Army Scout" slowly walked forward from the queue, just when everyone was suspicious, I saw him suddenly raise his head, and then in the next moment, the Yan soldier who was kneeling in front of Yan Zhu was in a different place.

From his still wide open eyes, it can be seen that he is afraid and frightened, because the person who took his life actually has a Humeng face, Zhang Zicong also had a moment of shock, and then a look of anger, he didn't understand why this Humeng man would make a claim, he just wanted to question sharply, but when he saw the other party's appearance, he couldn't say anything.

Because this person actually looks exactly like the chief guard who is always behind Kelie.

"Temutel!" Zhang Zicong was amazed in his heart, he didn't expect that Kelie would actually send Temuter to take action in person, this vicious wolf that he had always thought was crawling at Kelie's feet, finally showed his fangs in front of him.

Ignoring Yan Zhu and Zhang Zicong's frightened gazes, Temuter glanced at the man at the back of the line, who nodded, turned around and blew into the night behind him

A loud long beep.

The gradually strong vibration under his feet made the cool city that had just fallen into the night no longer calm, Temuter stood straight in the open city gate hole with a knife, and used his strength to tell Zhang Zicong and Yan Zhu behind him what a fierce wolf he was.

Zhang Zicong and Yan Zhu glanced at each other, and they both saw the fear in each other's eyes, especially Yan Zhu, who was secretly glad that his misdeeds just now were rotten by Yan Zhu, otherwise he would definitely be the first to be in a different place.

As for Zhang Zicong, what he saw from Temutel was that Hu Meng did not trust him, thinking that since he surrendered to Hu Meng, he has been conscientious and tried his best to do things for Hu Meng, but what he got was still the endless suspicion of the other party, which made him feel both helpless and angry.

The horns of the enemy attack came and went in Liangcheng, and more and more Yan soldiers rushed to the east city gate, but these Yan soldiers were like a bloodthirsty demon wolf in front of Temuter, they were like paper paste, the blood-colored knife light with a thick fishy smell, every time it flashed in the crowd, there was a piece of Yan soldiers' bodies torn apart, so several knives were cut out, Rao was there were hundreds of Yan soldiers present, and no one dared to approach him within five zhang.

In the blink of an eye, the Humeng cavalry behind him was like a hurricane, roaring into the city of Liangzhou, and the Yan army garrison that had gathered in a panic collapsed at the touch of this fierce impact, and soon the Humeng army defeated the Yan army in the east of the city, and then gradually spread in the three directions of southwest and north.

"Good city gates, why did they suddenly break? Where did the Humeng come from? Yan Zhiyun came out of the governor's mansion in a panic, and fled all the way west under the protection of the commander of the patrol battalion.

The commander of the patrol battalion shook his head, and helped Yan Zhiyun to run and said, "I don't know, the last general was also resting at the time, and then suddenly shouted and killed. ”

Yan Zhiyun suddenly stopped and looked at the other party viciously, "You are also resting, it has just been night, and as the commander of the patrol battalion, you have actually rested?" ”

The eyes of the commander of the patrol battalion dodged, and he didn't dare to meet Yan Zhiyun's eyes, after all, he was indeed derelict in his duties, but he had done this in the past, he didn't say it, and the subordinates under his command who knew about it were not big mouths, so naturally it couldn't reach the ears of Yan Zhiyun or Ge Cheng'a, but tonight the Humeng people came to sneak attack so deadly, which was revealed.

Yan Zhiyun had a cold face, ignored him, and continued to run with the support of the family next to him, and the commander of the patrol battalion saw this, and led his soldiers to hurriedly follow, and fled west with Yan Zhiyun's servants.

Ge Cheng'a looked at the Yan army that was killed and retreated, and it was difficult to accept that he had worked hard to manage Dingzhou Prefecture for many years, and he was so easily captured by the Humeng people, and he was so resentful that he couldn't control the blood tumbling in his heart for a while, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, his body shook twice, and he fell backwards, fortunately, the generals behind him helped him to hold it, so as not to fall.

"The order, the whole army abandoned Liangcheng and retreated... Retreat to Dingshui. Ge Cheng'a weakly gave the last military order, and then fainted, and the generals under his command glanced at each other and nodded in unison.

A moment later, the horn of retreat sounded in every corner of Liangcheng, and countless defeated Yan troops and panicked people in the city fled from three directions, southwest and north, and the Liangcheng, which everyone thought would not fall, fell into the hands of the Humeng people in just a few hours.
