With 20,000 people stationed in Hanyang, and there are no city defense equipment in the city, if you want to resist the 200,000 wind army, what is the difference between it and looking for death!

What's more, the combat power of the Chu Army's naval division in this kind of siege battle is not as good as the Feng Army at all, and it would be strange if General Liu was not dumbfounded.

It wasn't until a while later that no one noticed him, and at this time, people also stopped talking and looked at the general surnamed Liu, someone sighed lightly, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Old Liu, this battle is dangerous, you can do it yourself......"

"Hey......" people shook their heads and sighed, and then walked out of the hall in twos and threes.

Tang Ze was the main general, and as soon as he gave an order, the Chu army in Hanyang City moved up and down, and late that night, he opened the south gate, preparing to leave the city at night and retreat to the southeast.

At this time, the entire Hanyang City has been surrounded by the Feng army, and here at the south gate, there are actually not many troops, only a few thousand people, and the main role is to block the Chu army and prevent the other party from logging and quarrying.

Tang Ze chose to break through from here, and thousands of wind troops couldn't stop tens of thousands of troops, and the news quickly spread to Lu Chen, who first groaned after hearing it, and then said: "Forget it, there is no need to fight Tang Ze to the death, if he wants to break through from the south gate, let him break through." ”

As Lu Chen's military order was conveyed to the front line, after a fierce battle with the Chu army on the side of the Feng army, he took the initiative to retreat and make way of the way, Tang Ze saw that the opportunity could not be missed, and immediately did not hesitate at all, leading tens of thousands of Chu troops directly out of Hanyang and fleeing all the way to the southeast.

"Report ~~~~"

"King Qiqi, Tang Ze has led the Chu army to break through and is retreating to the southeast." In the big tent of the Chinese army, a spy from the military aircraft battalion knelt on one knee and intervened to salute.

"Can the Chu army carry grain and grass?" Lu Chen asked.

"There is no food or grass, and it looks like a rapid march." The spies returned.

Lu Chen asked again: "How many are there?" ”

The spy thought for a moment and said, "About fifty or sixty thousand." ”

"Okay, this king knows, probe and report again!" Lu Chen waved his hand.

"No!" The spies saluted and retreated.

After he left, Lu Chen looked around at the people in the tent and said with a slight smile: "It seems that Tang Ze is planning to give up Hanyang, but judging from the number of Chu troops, there should still be about 20,000 people left in the city." ”

Xiao Wang frowned and said: "King, it stands to reason that Tang Ze and his group still have seventy or eighty thousand troops, if they desperately stick to Hanyang, maybe they can wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and now they give up Hanyang like this, which is really unexpected." ”

Lu Chen said: "No matter what Tang Ze thinks, now that he has led a large army out of the city, and the troops in the city are insufficient, our army should take this opportunity to take Hanyang in one fell swoop, this is the most important thing." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, all the generals nodded in agreement, and Lu Chen no longer delayed time, but immediately said in a shocking voice: "Pass on the king's military order!" Get ready for the siege! ”

"No!" All the generals responded with their fists clasped together.

He gave an order, and soon, the high-pitched and impassioned sound of horns sounded in the camp of the Wind Army.

At this moment, except for the patrol guards who kept vigil, most of the other soldiers had already fallen asleep, and the sound of horns and the shouts of officers were immediately heard from the various camp tents, mixed with the sound of kicking the beds with military boots:

"Get up! Get up! Prepare for battle—"

The Pingzhou army was well-trained, and in the noisy sound, the officers and men quickly dressed up neatly and picked up the halberd and marched together.

The sound of the roaring infantry filled the entire camp, and after the army gathered, Lu Chen's side issued another military order, and the 200,000 Pingzhou troops began to march under the city.

In the middle of the night, looking out from the top of the city, countless torches were dotted and counted.

"Boom! Boom-"

The people stopped in unison, and their halberds slammed into the ground.

At this time, the general surnamed Liu had already received the news, and was watching from the position in the center of the city, seeing this situation, he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and said quietly: "As I expected, after Tang Ze led the main force of our army to retreat, the Feng army received the news and will definitely capture Hanyang as soon as possible!" ”

The subordinate beside him said: "General, now that the Feng army is about to attack the city, what should we do, Tang Ze ordered the general to defend Hanyang, but only 20,000 people were left, isn't this letting the general die!" ”

His words were speaking to the heart of the general surnamed Liu, but before the latter could say anything, at this time, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from the city, and then a person rode a horse to the city and shouted loudly at the top: "Listen to the Chu army in the city!" Ling'er waited for the city to open the city and surrender quickly! Otherwise, when the city is broken, the chickens and dogs will not be left! ”

Hearing this, General Liu's face couldn't help but change, and his subordinates immediately said: "Oh, General! Tang Ze himself was cowardly and afraid of death, so he only cared about running for his life, but he left us here to die! This is clearly trying to harm the general! General, let's make a decision! ”

"What do you mean...... Switch dedication? General Liu said in a condensed voice.

"Or else...... Otherwise, we will all die here. The subordinate said.

When General Liu heard this, he took a deep breath, he knew that what his subordinates said was right, once the Feng army began to attack the city, with its own 20,000 people, fighting to the end, I am afraid that none of them would survive!

At this moment, not only the subordinates beside him have been persuading, but even the soldiers guarding the city around are all looking at the general surnamed Liu.

Seeing this, General Liu understood that the soldiers below still had the heart to fight.

He took another deep breath, as if he had made a difficult decision, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Kaesong! The Windward Army enters! ”

Seeing that he had finally made a decision, his subordinates couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then nodded hurriedly, and then leaned out half of his body and shouted loudly towards the city gate: "His Royal Highness the Wind King!" We are willing to open the city and surrender! Please also ask Your Highness not to attack the city! ”

"Humph! Count you as acquaintances! Zhao Chuan, who shouted before the city, snorted coldly, then turned his horse's head, and returned to his own formation, and after coming to Lu Chen's side, he reported: "King, the other party is planning to surrender." ”

"This king has heard it." Lu Chen waved his hand slightly.

There was no movement on the side of the wind army for the time being, and after a while, the tall city gate was slowly opened, and then, the general surnamed Liu led a cadre of subordinates to walk out quickly, and after coming to Lu Chen, he lifted his robe, knelt on one knee, lowered his head slightly, and clenched his fists and said: "Sin General Liu Shan, see His Royal Highness the Wind King——"

While speaking, he never dared to look up at Lu Chen, and the cold sweat on his forehead flowed down involuntarily.

"Liu Shan?" Lu Chen was on top of the war horse, and did not immediately respond to the general surnamed Liu, but glanced at Tang Man with a puzzled look.
