Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Chapter 127: (Breaking Linzhang)

"Wow, old grandson, your guy has survived this battle all his life..."The soldier who leaned over earlier said with a smile...

"It won't be long before we can receive the news from Anyang, Master Hou has a hand in the war, and we can all follow the light when the time comes..."

At this time, the earthquake trembled, the soldiers upstairs were still talking and laughing, and the soldiers who were leaning on the pillars of the urn city tower before felt that something was wrong, so they frowned and looked into the distance, under the sunlight, a black shadow was galloping...

"Look, what's that?" One stood up and pointed to a dark shadow in the distance...

That's right, it was Shangguan Yin Feng who came, they hurried up, and finally came to this Linzhang: "Quick, speed up, tell them, prepare the oil..."

The soldiers on the city tower felt that the urn city tower was swaying, and an experienced chief stood up, looked at it, his face changed greatly, and he stammered slowly: "Enemy... Enemy... Enemy... Enemy attack... Enemy attack... It's an enemy attack... Enemy attack..."

With the shout of the chief, the soldiers on the city tower suddenly became a pot of porridge, and a military marquis who was resting in the urn city tower and was on duty walked out of the urn city tower, and after looking at the scenery in front of him, his face changed greatly, and he shouted to the soldiers in the urn city tower: "The enemy attack... Drumming... Close the gates..."

"Enemy attack, close the city gates..."

The order was passed down one by one, and the military marquis immediately sent someone to the general's palace in the city to inform the guard Li Kai, and the city gate was slowly closed...

Shangguan Yin Feng stopped his horse outside the shooting range of the archers on the city tower, pointed at the city gate with his hand, and shouted: "Rush over and destroy the gate for me..."

With Shangguan Yin Feng's order, hundreds of horsemen rushed out from behind him and rushed towards the city gate, they all held oil canisters in their hands, and the arrows on the city tower flew towards these knights like raindrops when they approached, and there were not a few people who fell off the horse with arrows, but because of the speed of the horse, unless you are a marksman, how to shoot the galloping knight...

"Boom...", more than a dozen burning oil canisters exploded at the gate of Linzhang City, and the fire instantly spread to the entire city gate...

"The gates are on fire... Hurry up and put out the fire..."Seeing this, the military marquis shouted, and there was nothing to think about except to be anxious, once the city gate was lost, Linzhang would not be able to hold it...

Shangguan Yin Feng saw that the city gate had been lit, and his heart was much more relieved, and a dozen cans of fire oil could burn down the entire city gate in a maximum of half a cup of tea: "Order, the whole army will attack, Cao Zhen, the defenders in the city, not one will be left..."

"No..." Cao Zhen ran to the formation after receiving the order, pointed his spear, and shouted: "Brothers, kill me..."

"Kill..."The morale was like a rainbow, and Cao Zhen rushed forward with three thousand iron horsemen...

Due to the long-distance attack this time, the 20,000 people brought by Shangguan Yin Feng are all cavalry, which is also the strength he can handle, due to the rebellion of Wang Yan and Yuan Jingchu in the northwest and Zhuzhou, the horse breeding land of the Cheng Dynasty has changed hands, and the only place to raise horses in the Central Plains is a few places around Gyeonggi, and the number of war horses is really embarrassed to show up compared to Li Yanqing, so even in the hands of Li Xiucheng outside Anyang City, there are only 10,000 cavalry...

Shangguan Yin Feng watched Cao Zhen rush to the city gate from afar, then dismounted and took the round shield and the soldiers behind him to knock the burning city gate open, and then hung the round shield on the saddle and rode on the horse and then rushed in to kill...

"Lord Wang, it is reported that there are 10,000 soldiers in Linzhang City, and General Cao has 3,000 people, how can he be an opponent..."Huang Botao rode to Shangguan Yin Feng and said, in fact, he also needs military exploits to consolidate his position, and now watching Cao Zhen take 3,000 people to kill the enemy in Linzhang City, I can't help but feel itchy...

Shangguan Yin Feng of course also knew Huang Botao's intentions, so he pointed to the south and north of the city, and ordered: "The north is to Handan, and the south is Anyang, for the sake of safety, Huang Botao, this king ordered you to lead 3,000 troops to the north gate to intercept the enemy army; Qian Menglong, you take 3,000 people to the south gate to intercept the enemy..."

"No—" The two of them replied in unison, then turned their horses' heads and headed towards their own team...

"The rest of the people, follow this king and kill in..."After speaking, Shangguan Yin Feng pointed his gun at night, and then headed towards Linzhang City...

The battle in the city was extremely fierce, the defender Li Kai was breached at the city gate, Cao Zhen had already occupied the east city, and then led the army from the school field in the city.

Shangguan Yin Feng has been born in the standard army since the end of the Hebei Rebellion, and he must take the lead in every battle, and this battle is still the same, unless it is expected that the battle will be won, otherwise, he will not be allowed to participate in the battle in person, which is like a fatal ...

After stabbing and killing one person, Shangguan Yin Feng raised his eyes and saw that the battle in the city was the most intense, Cao Zhen and his people were fighting with the defenders, shouting and killing: "Pass the order, be sure to capture the enemy alive..."

"No..."

It is very simple to give an order to capture the enemy general on the battlefield, but it is difficult to implement it in practice.

Cao Zhen also learned that Shangguan Yin Feng was going to capture the garrison soon after the order was issued, and after receiving the order, he joined Murong Xuehu and led the army towards Li Kai's Chinese army with all his might...

Li Kai's lieutenant general's face was covered with blood and there were multiple knife wounds on his body, so he hurriedly ran to Li Kai's face, hugged his fists and said, "Will... Checkmate... The enemy's offensive is too fierce, and our army is about to be unable to resist ... Please also ask the general to give the order to retreat ...

"Retreat?" Li Kai said these two words slowly, not that he didn't want to retreat, but that he knew that once he retreated, Linzhang fell, Anyang would fall into passivity, once he retreated, even if he didn't die now, Yuan Jingchu held him accountable, his responsibility was quite large, and it would even affect Li Yanqing, now Li Yanqing is suspected by the imperial court, he knows more or less, how dare he give up Linzhang: "Order, the whole army will attack, and those who dare to retreat will be killed..."

Then he pulled out his sword, raised his sword and rode towards Cao Zhen's army, the deputy general saw this, had to step on the war horse, followed closely, sure enough, when Li Kai personally joined the battle, his subordinates saw the main general fighting, and their confidence suddenly increased, and Cao Zhen fought even more...

Cao Zhen saw the other party wearing silver-white armor in the battle, waving a sword and riding a horse to kill the soldiers on his side, and roughly guessed that this person was the enemy's main general, so without saying a word, he ran towards Li Kai with his personal guards...

"Protect the General..."

Li Kai's own soldiers saw that there were enemy generals coming towards their main general, so they shouted other soldiers, surrounded Li Kai in the center, Cao Zhen arrived first, raised his gun and killed one person, pulled the reins of the horse, raised the horse's hooves, and trampled one person to the ground...

"Thief general, look at the sword..."Li Kai took advantage of this opportunity and raised his sword to slash at Cao Zhen...

said that it was too late, and then quickly, a shot protruded from the gap next to him, pushed Li Kai's sword away, and then stabbed to death the three soldiers next to him, swept the spear, and knocked Li Kai off the horse who was resisting with a sword, and the soldiers behind him dismounted together, and more than a dozen people pressed Li Kai under him, unable to move...

Cao Zhen came back to his senses and took a closer look, the person who came was none other than Murong Xuehu, he saw that Cao Zhen was in danger, so he made a decisive attack, interrupted Li Kai's offensive, and also swept Li Kai off the horse.

"Take down this person..."Cao Zhen pointed at Li Kai and shouted, then hugged his fist towards Murong Xuehu and said, "Thank you, General Murong..."

"General Cao is polite..."Murong Xuehu also returned the salute to Cao Zhen with his fists, and he was also a person under Shangguan Yin Feng's account, needless to say...

"Lord Qiqi, successfully take down the enemy's guards..."Cao Zhen and Murong Xuehu escorted Li Kai to see Shangguan Yin Feng...

"You immediately lead the army into the battle, tell them that the Lord will be captured, those who are willing to surrender will be released to their homeland, and those who refuse to surrender will be killed..."

"No..."After the two of them received the order, they reflexively slaughtered into the city...

In fact, when the city gate was broken, there was a gap in the defenders' mental defense line, and Li Kai's appearance could reverse the situation, but he was captured alive, and the defenders' psychological defense line completely collapsed, and they turned around and ran, and those who fled were intercepted and killed by Huang Botao and Qian Menglong, and those who surrendered could still have a way to live...

"Come on, report your name..."Shangguan Yin Feng looked at Li Kai who was caught and asked...

Although Li Kai was captured, he still has a sense of arrogance, although he is not as famous as a general, but he is a good general, if Shangguan Yin Feng is attacking the city openly, I am afraid it will be difficult to take Linzhang: "A certain is under the command of the general of the southern army, and the general of the army Li Kai..."
