He Qing was happy, and was suddenly overwhelmed by this shocking news, and under the continuous shouting of the generals, he slowly spit out the word 'resist the enemy', which was extremely embarrassing and ridiculous...

Although He Ying in Xingyang City had prepared in advance, he never expected that the other party would suddenly attack the city at night, and it was all the troops around Xingyang who joined the battle, he had to resist with Chai Shang in a hurry, and he also wanted to know what happened in the end...

By the way, in ancient wars, all siege battles were rarely selected to act at night, and the lighting in ancient times was limited, even if all the troops had a torch, they could only shine on a small area around them, and the predictability of night siege was very difficult to control, which would cause great damage to the besieging party, so in ancient siege warfare, generals generally did not choose to fight at night; Shangguan Yin Feng was born in the special forces, so night combat is very admired for him, the fatigue of people at night will gradually increase, and the combat effectiveness of soldiers in white-knuckle combat will be weakened, which is why night battles are rarely mentioned in ancient times...

The raid was very successful, and the fire burned very much, but it was this fire that also affected Shangguan Yin Feng himself, and the fifty-mile company camp had no time to deal with it, the fire was monstrous, and the other generals who rushed around had to run towards the previously scheduled location, however, because He Qing did have too many men and horses, Huang Wei and other generals were basically scattered...

"Lord, in front of you is He Qing's big tent..."

Under the reminder of his soldiers, Shangguan Yin Feng looked ahead, and then looked at the rear, the fire could not be stopped, burning towards them, and the enemy troops who were rushing to flee for their lives ran in front of them, not fighting against them, but running for their lives, Shangguan Yin Feng pointed a spear in his hand: "Kill me with me..."

"Kill..."

He Qing was still stopping the deserters, and suddenly saw a fast horse rushing out of the panicked crowd towards him, more than ten years of military career, and knew in an instant that the comer was not good, and saw that all the sergeants who were blocking under him were poked to death, he quickly patted the horse's buttocks, turned the horse's head and ran towards the rear, leaving the rest of the people to block the comers...

This person is none other than Shangguan Yin Feng, he saw a horse on the opposite side fleeing, even if he had a night gun in his hand, he didn't dare to chase more, because he was blocking a group of people in front of him, and there were too many chaotic soldiers, he couldn't chase them at all, so he had to give up, and shouted to the Jinyi guard who was following behind him: "Kill it..."

Since then, an unprecedented battle finally broke out in Xingyang, nearly 700,000 soldiers and horses on both sides were strangled together, and it was impossible to distinguish between friend and foe in the night, and even being cut down to the ground by their own people did not stop happening, this battle, from one moment to the next day, until three o'clock the next day, that is, about 11 o'clock, the fire behind Shangguan Yin Feng continued to burn, Xingyang City had already been broken by a sudden attack, He Ying's army and Jia Fu and Gao Chong's troops were in full swing outside the city, He Qing led the defeated army to rush to Xingyang City, how did he know that the current fifty miles around Xingyang is full of battlefields, and everywhere is fighting...

"General, the city is full of slaughter, there are enemy troops behind you, our army has suffered heavy casualties, it is better to retreat..."

Seeing that the long sword in the adjutant general's hand was already full of gaps, He Qing had to make a decision that made He Ying defeated: "Pass the order, the whole army retreats..."

When the adjutant general heard this decision, his heart blossomed, and he hurriedly went down to give the order...

He Qing's troops were in an awkward position, behind him was Shangguan Yin Feng, who was chasing, and on the left was Gongsun Long's troops, and they couldn't go ahead, so they could only retreat in the direction of Wen County, and then turn around and retreat to Mengjin Pass...

He Qing galloped towards Wenxian with the remnants of the army, and drove away only half a pillar of incense, Shangguan Yin Feng led people to chase to the side of Xingyang, seeing that the chaotic army was mixed together, and the city and outside the city were full of soldiers who were fighting, he couldn't help frowning, he also knew that from last night to now, not only He Ying, but even they themselves were exhausted, and if they continued to fight, they could only lose both, and the battlefield was too wide, he didn't know where to start, even himself, he was tired, the fire burned, So that he is on the brink of fire and is now thirsty...

At the critical moment of this battle, the south was full of dust, the sound of horses' hooves and footsteps sounded in unison, Shangguan Yin Feng looked towards his right, and saw a large group of men and horses galloping towards him, Shangguan Yin Feng looked carefully, with a bright smile on his face, it was no one else, it was Qian Menglong, who had previously won the defense battle in Luanchuan and was named the general of the guard army by Shangguan Yin Feng, at this moment, he was taking 20,000 horses and horses, and set off from Ruyang in the starry night, and happened to arrive at the Xingyang battlefield at this most critical moment...

"Menglong, after this king's victory in this battle, you are the first merit..."Shangguan Yin Feng laughed and said to Qian Menglong, who was saluting him...

"My lord, the end will be too late..."

"It's not too late..."Shangguan Yin Feng took advantage of the situation to change a batch of war horses, re-mounted, and pointed to Xingyang City and said, "You will lead the army with me to kill it..."

"No..."

"Kill..."

Although 20,000 people are not much, they have not lost much strength, even if they travel a long distance, but for the others who are now fighting on the battlefield, their energy is very sufficient, which is also the key to the victory of this battle...

These 20,000 people rushed all the way with Shangguan Yin Feng, which can be said to be a sharp sword, right in He Ying's heart, which was also the last straw that overwhelmed He Ying, and his sergeants began to flee for their lives, and more than 100,000 people began to rush for their lives...

"General..."

He Ying was directing people to fight, and when he saw a horse flying to his side, he asked, "How is the battle?" ”

"General Qiyu, General He was attacked by the enemy at night, the fire burned the tent of the company camp, the army all ran away, General He's 100,000 army was almost wiped out, and now he has taken the remnants of the sergeants to Wen County, the enemy army of tens of thousands of people rushed towards our city, our army was defeated, the sergeants suffered heavy casualties, the front has been unable to stop effective resistance, and the soldiers are all fleeing for their lives..."

He Ying's heart felt like a boulder had been crushed, and he couldn't speak for a long time: "Hurry up and inform General Chai and quickly retreat to the back city..."

"No..."

In fact, He Ying didn't know that Chai Shang, who had suffered heavy casualties among the sergeants, was surrounded by Yuan Huan's army when he organized the sergeants to resist outside the city. And said that the Wei general Chai Shang, his grandfather Chai Min was the late Han Dynasty Emperor of the Western Regions Protector Left Protector Army General, because he did not want to be used by Wang Mang, he surrendered to Gongsun Shu, was named the general of Dingxi, the main capital of the palace, after the death of Chai Min, his son Chai Guang succeeded as the general of Dingxi, but in the early years of the emperor because of the failure of the war with the Wusun State, took away the post of the head of the capital of the palace, so Chai Guang died of grief and anger, Chai Guang's son Chai Shang, under the recommendation of some ministers, the title of the capital protector to join the military captain, Wang Yan said that after the emperor rebelled, because he did not want to follow Wang Yan, Then he took the 20,000 troops of the capital to the south, surrendered to He Ying, He Jing thanked him for his loyalty, and named him the general of Anxi.

It's just that He Jing made a mistake, that is, Chai Shang is indeed loyal, but he is loyal to the Chengjia Dynasty, not him He Jing, Chai Shang was unwilling to be used by Wang Yan before, and now he will not be used by He Jing, he is also a sensible person, and under Gongsun Long's personal edict, he made up his mind to follow Gongsun Long, and then surrendered to Gongsun Long...

The whole Xingyang battle is now basically coming to an end, Murong Guang in the north successfully intercepted Murong Qi's troops, the two sides launched a fierce battle, halfway Murong Qi learned the news of the destruction of Xingyang City, he ordered the army to withdraw from the Xingyang battlefield, back to Zhao to station; He Ying, who desperately resisted in Xingyang Houcheng, did not know that he had fallen into a siege on all sides, and his soldiers were now only a thousand, and all of them were his guards, and the other sergeants, all of them scattered and fled, without any fighting spirit at all...
