On the northern border of Shidao County, a castle spanning three miles stands on the ground, with mountains on both sides of the city.

Geographically speaking, Changzhou is the smallest in the Shu Dao Prefectures, located in the central and eastern parts of Shu Dao, located between Luzhou and Gongzhou, from north to south in an irregular inverted gourd shape, with Pengshan and Lingyun two mountain ranges as the dividing line, it is obliquely divided into north and south.

In the south, there are two counties of Shangfeng and Shidao, and in the north are five counties of Wusheng, Anyue, Guozhou, Fengdu and Bodu.

Beiguancheng, the throat fortress leading to the five northern counties of Changzhou, is exactly at the fulcrum of the two mountain ranges, and to the north can attack the five northern counties, and to the west can enter the border of Luzhou.

As the most important pass in Changzhou, Emperor Gongsun Shu of the Chengjia family has always attached great importance to the control of Beiguan City, and has placed more than 40,000 permanent residents in the city by containing immigration, and the defenders of the pass are also maintained at about 20,000, and the war preparation is excellent.

However, it is a pity that with the defeat of the coalition army in Yongzhou, hundreds of thousands of troops of the Cheng family were swept away, and even the emperor Gongsun Shu was lost.

When the news reached the family, the remaining courtiers quickly split into two factions.

One faction is the military forces of the imperial city represented by the remaining Praetorian Guards, supporting the younger brother of Ligong Sun Shu and holding Jinwu Gongsun as emperor.

The other faction is the remaining civil officials and scholars, who support the son of Ligong Sun Shu and the prince of Zhao, Sun Jie, as the emperor.

After several days of standoff, the conflict finally broke out, and Gongsun Kuang, who had the support of military forces, quickly defeated the prince of Zhao, Sun Jie, and drove him out of the imperial city along with the civil officials and scholars behind him. Unwilling to fail, Gongsun Jie, with the support of the local wealthy clans, entangled tens of thousands of righteous troops to counterattack the imperial city, and the battle between the two forces spread to the entire five northern counties, and the 20,000 defenders who were originally stationed in Beiguan City were also recalled by Gongsun Guo, who established himself as the emperor, otherwise with the siege ability of the Nanyi army, they would not want to break through this Xiongguan, and the people of Shidao County would not suffer the second disaster.

In the Beiguancheng General's Mansion, bursts of coquettish moaning and wheezing came from the hall from time to time, Ren Gui, the king of Yuewang, was lying naked on the main seat, and several beauties in tulle surrounded him, serving wine and pinching legs, so unhappy.

Below Ren Gui, more than a dozen generals of the Nanyi Army on the left and right sides were also drinking and having fun under the scouts of several beautiful women, and one or two Nanyi generals who were in a hurry had even gone into battle with guns and proclaimed prostitution in public.

In a month, 100,000 Nanyi troops wantonly plundered in Shangfeng and Shidao counties, and made enough money, and with the materials obtained from the two counties, it was enough for Ren Gui to return to Gongzhou to pacify the ministries.

Now the army is stranded in Beiguancheng in order to facilitate the evacuation from the Lingyun Mountains in the east at any time and return to Gongzhou.

"Report! Great King, the southern royal army is here, and the 30,000 eastern army is less than 5 miles away from Beiguan City! ”

Just when Ren Gui and the others were drinking freely, a Nanyi messenger rushed in with a panicked face and reported to Ren Gui.

"What? The Southern King's Army is coming? ”

The noisy crowd in the hall fell silent for a moment, and Ren Gui said loudly with a look of disbelief.

When plundering Shangfeng County, when Ren Gui received the news of Gongsun Shu's defeat, he also thought that the southern Wang army would enter Changzhou.

However, as time went on, the southern Wang Dongjun entrenched in Dong'an City did not move for a long time, and seemed to have no interest in Changzhou at all, but only sent a large number of men and horses to search for displaced people in various places.

In order to avoid conflict, Ren Gui also specially ordered all departments not to stop the Eastern Army of the displaced people who went to search, in his eyes, these displaced people who would only empty food were not as valuable as a pig and sheep.

After a long time, Ren Gui has gradually forgotten the threat of the Eastern Army behind him, and he doesn't want to quietly break into Beiguan City now.

"Gather the army at once, and let us meet them well!"

After all, Ren Gui was also the overlord of the party that unified Gongzhou, and immediately came back to his senses after a short shock, thinking of the scene when he fled in embarrassment outside Dong'an City, a sneer appeared on his face, and he ordered loudly to the generals in the hall.

Last time, the 100,000 Nanyi army had just experienced a crushing defeat, with a serious shortage of grain, grass and ordnance, and the eastern army had a major canyon road, so Ren Gui did not have the confidence to fight.

But now, after plundering the lands of Shangfeng and Shidao counties, the 100,000 Nanyi army has sufficient food, grass and ordnance, and the army that has completed the refitting has exceeded 40,000 people, and there is nothing to fear in the face of the Eastern Army, which is only 30,000.

"Fight!"

"Fight!"

Hearing this, the Nanyi generals in the hall shouted one after another, and the inexplicable consecutive defeats in Yunlong County did not make them feel the pain of their skin.

Countless Nanyi soldiers slowly gathered at the south gate of Beiguan City, and began to assemble out of the city under the leadership of the generals of various departments.

Pedal Pedal Pedal ~

Half an hour later, on the ground south of Beiguan City, dust and smoke were billowing out, and the figures of groups of black-armored soldiers slowly appeared in the sight of the Nanyi people.

The black armor formed countless phalanx modules, and there was a general in front of each phalanx in front of the left to command, and the phalanx made a neat noise between the unified marches, and the ink-colored flags stood in the wind.

Looking at the 30,000 Eastern Army slowly coming, the faces of Ren Gui and the others gradually became solemn, although the army on the opposite side had not yet arrived, but a brave and strong army momentum had already rushed to their faces.

This is an elite army that has drunk blood!

"Deputy Marshal, the Nanyi army has been lined up outside the city, and General Zhou sent his subordinates to ask if he would send someone to negotiate?"

A messenger quickly rushed to the main formation of the Chinese army, Liu Wenxiu, and bowed.

"Negotiations? Since the Nanyi people have already put up a formation, how can our army show weakness and pass on the order, and the whole army will be in a battle formation and prepare for battle! ”

Hearing this, a sneer appeared on the corner of Liu Wenxiu's mouth, and he glanced at the crowded Nanyi army outside Beiguan City, and ordered coldly.

"Prepare for war!"

"Prepare for war!"

One after another, orders quickly spread throughout the army, and the phalanx moved awe-inspiringly.

Rows of spear and shield soldiers quickly moved forward, and the shields were combined and close together, spreading out in the shape of cranes, and the Chinese army and countless crossbowmen on both wings took out their bows and arrows, ready to shoot at any time.

Although the Nanyi army on the opposite side was several times larger than them, Liu Wenxiu did not have the slightest worry that the Eastern Army needed a tough battle to wipe the edge that had been hidden for a long time.

"Haha, okay, it's worthy of being a strong southern king, and he really took my Ren Gui as a soft persimmon! Herald Diagram Attack! ”

Looking at the Eastern Army, which was ready to attack at any time, Ren Gui smiled angrily, stared at the Eastern Army formation on the opposite side viciously and ordered.

In the bottom of his heart, Ren Gui didn't want to fight to the death with the Eastern Army, and the army went out of the city just to put on a show and vent his evil anger.

Who would have thought, but the generals of the Eastern Army on the opposite side refused to back down at all, and directly put on a posture of starting a war without a word, in this case, if he was soft, how could he serve the people in the Nanyi Army.

This battle must be fought!

"Boys, take off the heads of everyone on the other side, and the whole army will attack!"

On the right side of the Nanyi army's formation, Tutong, who had received the order, roared excitedly, and with a wave of one hand, 20,000 Nanyi troops rushed towards the opposite Eastern Army formation.

"Archer, release the arrow!"

The distance of hundreds of meters was instantaneous, and at the moment when the soldiers of the former army of the Nanyi Army stepped over the positioning arrows, Liu Wenxiu gave an order, and tens of thousands of arrows rose into the air, like a cloud that suddenly came, enveloping the sky above the army of Tutong.

Woo Woo Woo ~ Ahhh

The rain-down arrows pierced the bodies of the unarmored Nanyi soldiers without hindrance, causing countless screams and groans.

The distance of 150 meters is the distance between life and death for countless Nanyi soldiers, and under the obstruction of the continuous rain of arrows, when the Nanyi army under the Tutong Department rushed to the front of the Eastern Army, more than 3,000 Nanyi soldiers had fallen on this ground forever.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Countless soldiers of the Nanyi Army continued to impact on the combined steel city wall, and between the gaps in the shield wall, the spear forest composed of countless spears continued to twitch back and forth, harvesting the lives of the soldiers of the Nanyi Army.
