Chapter 190: The Next City

"Close the gates immediately, release the arrows, release the arrows quickly!"

The enemy army, which had just fallen more than a hundred meters away, had narrowed the distance between the two sides in a few breaths, and had just entered the city as soon as the sacrificial rite had just entered the city, and commanded loudly in horror;

He didn't even care about the hundreds of soldiers who followed him, and most of them didn't enter the city.

Puff puff~~~, Fengxian wanted to follow his brother's advice and let people close the city gate immediately, but with the counterattack of the musket battalion, the archers on the city wall not only did not hurt the other party, but were still rapidly decreasing.

Because once they appear at the battlement, they will be directly shot in the head, and with the continuous influx of those remnants of Dali below, the pushing city gate cannot be closed at all.

That is, in a dozen breaths, waving the bright silver spear to open a few sparse arrow feathers, Xu Yunlong, Li Hai and others, who were in the lead, had already followed the enemy army and rushed into the city.

Kill ~~~, until this moment, there was no need to keep the lives of the people who had been hanging on the sacrificial rites, Xu Yunlong led people like wolves and tigers to kill, and most of the hundreds of people died tragically.

This is still the reason why Lu Feng and the others were suppressing the archers on the city wall, and they did not enter the city at the first time, otherwise they would have been defeated faster with the blocking of muskets.

"Block, who dares to retreat and kill the whole family!"

Seeing that the general situation had gone, Feng Xian Chong's thousands of defenders shouted orders, and then fled with his brother towards the south gate like a lost dog.

"Those who descend do not kill, and the negative is stubbornly resisting like this person."

Although when the Lord was about to flee, the order that they must fight to the end was still in their ears, but when Xu Yunlong shot them, he pierced the throat of the brave and combative hundred households among them;

After Lu Feng led people to rush in with muskets, more than half of the Dali defenders threw away their weapons and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Of course, not all people everywhere are cowards, and there are also people in Dali's army who are not afraid of death;

However, the gun shot the first bird, puff puff~~~, after hundreds of soldiers who resisted for whatever reason were killed, the remaining people who did not want to die knelt down in humiliation.

"You come to inform your lordship, I will lead people to hunt down the remnants of the fleeing army, and I must not let them escape back to report the news."

After controlling the Yao'an City Fortress, Lu Feng said to Xu Yunlong, and then led hundreds of people out of the south gate to continue the pursuit.

"General, those guys must have run away from the mountains and forests, what should I do now?"

After chasing for less than ten miles, Lu Feng and the others found the horses that had fallen on the way, and Bi Sheng beside him couldn't help but ask.

"Go back, this mountain is so high and dense that it is impossible to find them before dark."

Frowning and glancing at the setting sun, Lu Feng made a decisive decision......

When night fell, a carriage, escorted by many cavalry, took the lead in entering the city of Yao'an, and the remaining tens of thousands of troops were still on the way to slowly pull out;

However, it was only twenty miles, and everyone would be able to arrive by midnight to prepare for tomorrow's battle.

When Liu Huayun interrogated Duan Yaohu, he had received the news that Annan's 80,000 troops had arrived in Chuxiong, but he was not worried at all.

Together with the musket battalion with sufficient ammunition, there were already 80,000 horses, and with the surrendered troops that had been collected earlier, it was enough to have 110,000 people.

If Annan had self-knowledge and immediately withdrew his troops to maintain the attitude of submission to the tribute every year, Liu Huayun could still ignore it, but if they dared to continue to help Duan Yan, then it would be better to leave him in Dali directly.

Of course, the reason why he is so confident is because the surrender army of more than 40,000 Dali, and Ji Lifeng and others who were selected were also disorganized into the 70,000 army in the three places;

For example, although Ji Lifeng was appointed as the commander of a hundred households because of his merits, his subordinates were all Dafeng Erlang, and those ordinary soldiers were interspersed with the accounts of hundreds of households and thousands of households in Dafeng.

In this way, these people want to have two hearts, and in the tens of thousands of troops, they dare not show it.

"Lu Feng, junior brother Yunlong, you guys are doing a good job, go back and rest early, there should be a tough battle to fight tomorrow!"

Knowing that when they attacked Yao'an, they were a little greedy for merit, and let the Fengxian brothers escape, and the news that Dali lost the fortresses of the two places must have been spread;

But fortunately, the casualties on their own side are not very large, and the soldiers and nobles quickly took this city, so what else can be blamed? Liu Huayun patted the two of them on the shoulder and praised them like this.

"Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, Da Yao and Yao An are all lost, and the 50,000 horses and horses are all wiped out......"

At night, Ding Xun, who got such bad news, almost trotted all the way and rushed into the harem to spread the news.

"What? There is such a thing, Duan Yaohu's useless thing, Ding Aiqing, tell me what the hell is going on? ”

Duan Yan, who was at the critical moment of intercourse, trembled for a while, and almost stopped talking, but it was a matter of life and death, the old guy hurriedly dressed up and began to convene the close ministers to discuss the matter, and did not punish Ding Xun.

"Your Majesty, I got the latest battle report for the minister, saying that the other party suddenly had a lot of soldiers operating siege cannons and holding small artillery today......"

As soon as Duan Yan's words fell, he hurriedly explained the situation.

Of course, if it weren't for the urgency of the situation, Ding Xun would not have had the courage to break into the palace at night to disturb the good things of the lord.

But because I don't know what a musket is? Feng Ritual described it as a small cannon, and Duan Yan and the others heard this version.

It's over, when did Dafeng have a hand-held artillery, how is this good? Even if you stick to the city with all your might, I'm afraid it's useless.

With a dejected sigh in his heart, Duan Yan asked a few people in the room with an ugly face, "Zhong Aiqing, do you have a good plan to retreat from the enemy?" ”

Several people in the hall looked at each other, and apart from seeing the fear in each other's eyes, none of them spoke.

"You ~~~"

"Your Majesty, in the opinion of the ministers, instead of scattering the troops and being broken one by one, it is better to transfer all the horses and horses, cooperate with Annan's 80,000 army, and fight them to the death in the territory of Xiangyun."

When Duan Yan was about to go berserk, Ding Xun stubbornly proposed.

Ten miles southeast of Xiangyun County, it is a rare area in Dali, a mountainous place, with a flat terrain radius of forty or fifty miles, which can be used as a confrontation between the two armies, thereby reducing the role of the opponent's artillery.

With such a bad idea, Ding Xun couldn't hold it back, and in addition, whether Annan's general Pan Zitao was willing to work hard was the key to the problem.

"Just use Ding Aiqing's words, come and quickly send a message to General Annan......"

Duan Yan also knew that this was not the best strategy, but it was better to gather more than 100,000 people to fight for it than to be easily attacked by the other party and enter the imperial city.

Sigh~~~

At the fifth watch, a fast horse stopped, and was leading to the junction of Xiangyun and Yao'an outside the South China, repaired Annan military camp, a moment later, the war horse left the camp, and rushed towards Chuxiong County, dozens of miles away......
