After being besieged, Luo Hu and Qi Jun's forestry knew that they had no way to retreat. Needless to say, the city gates in the rear must have been sealed. The roads on both sides are now also overlaid with defenders. They understood that if they couldn't go to the front and take down Jiang Ming and the other guards, it would be basically impossible to survive.

Luo Hu and Forestry took the lead in fighting bravely, and the three thousand soldiers also followed, so it cannot be said that they were not brave. However, the other party had already laid an ambush, making it difficult for the Luo family army to advance. What made Luo Hu and Forestry even more hated was that in the houses on both sides, the cold arrows that kept shooting took the lives of one soldier after another, seriously hindering the speed of progress. Overhead was a rain of arrows above the houses, and on either side were cold arrows that were constantly being fired. And the doors of these houses have also been blocked, so that they cannot enter, and can only be killed one by one by cold arrows.

"Ignore it, follow me, don't stop!" Looking at the brothers under his command who kept falling, Luo Hu gritted his teeth and roared. Now he has only one goal, that is, to kill the front, take down Jiang Ming, and make him look good. Moreover, there didn't seem to be too many guards around Jiang Ming in front.

On both sides of the main street, there are also many side streets, but in the face of the joint suppression and counterattack of the Zhao army's giant shield soldiers, pikemen and archers, the Luo family army suffered heavy losses, but it was not allowed to advance an inch.

"General, let the corpses of the brothers of the soldiers resist the arrows of the Zhao army, find a way to kill the siege of the Zhao army in the advantageous terrain here, and occupy the mansion to defend it. As long as we hold on here until dawn, we can wait for your eldest brother's reinforcements, and by then, we still have a way to live, otherwise, it will be these arrows that will consume all our men and horses. "Forestry saw that although the defenders were numerous, the armor and equipment were sharp. However, the lethality they brought to their own side was not as great as expected. Forestry knows that this is also the reason why Jiang Ming's department has not experienced a bloody battle. Of course, this is also the disadvantage of these refugee rebels.

"Good! I understand! For Luo Hu, it is not unacceptable to use the corpses of his brothers as shields. You know, he was a mountain bandit before, and he didn't shy away from this kind of thing.

Gu Shan, the light cavalry captain of the Zhao Army beside Jiang Ming, looked at the battlefield and the information transmitted from all directions, couldn't help but shake his head secretly, and said to Jiang Ming beside him with a smile: "Leader Jiang, your subordinates still need more training." ”

Jiang Ming naturally knew what the army under his command was like, although he also let Jiang Yun and other leaders and generals train strictly, but after all, they had not experienced a real battle. Even if he occupied the land of the three counties, Jiang Ming also took advantage of the huge number of refugees in the city to rush up, and the garrisons and officials in the city were taken down, and he had no experience in offensive and defensive battles at all. From the disdainful expressions of several Zhao soldiers beside him, Jiang Ming could clearly feel that the other party was ignoring his subordinates.

"Captain Gu, you also know, Jiang Ming is just an ordinary scholar, and it's okay to use a little bit of small means that can't be put on the table, as for training and fighting, this is really not what I'm good at. However, since we have returned to the Zhao State, with Captain Gu and the soldiers of the Zhao Army, this soldier will naturally gradually become an elite soldier. ”

"By the way, Captain Gu, I see that although the Luo family army on the other side is brave in battle, they are all inspired by Luo Hu, the second leader of the Luo family army. As long as they are taken, the natural morale of these two thousand and enemy troops will collapse, and there is no need to deal with them. ”

Gu Shan couldn't help but glance at Jiang Ming, although the other party was not a military general, but the other party still saw the situation on the battlefield very clearly. That's right, the two thousand enemy troops who are still desperately advancing can be so brave, and it is indeed the opposing commander's general who plays an important role, which is also a common problem for some troops that have not undergone strict training, or more similar to the style of mountain bandits and bandits, and the main general is the key to determining the morale of the soldiers.

"Let them continue to fight, and if they don't take down the other side with one blow, that is to train these thousands of soldiers. We have to fight against the Qi army next, and we don't have soldiers who have experienced bloody battles, but we can't. It is also good for them to see blood. Gu Shan said in a deep voice.

Jiang Ming was stunned, looked at the scene of some soldiers not far away who were afraid, flinching, and vomiting after killing someone, and nodded: "What Captain Gu said is very true, this point is not qualified for me, the leader. I thought that it was important for them to experience less war and survive as much as possible, but I forgot that we are still in danger of right and wrong. ”

The battlefield became more and more intense, and the archers of the defenders gradually ran out of arrows, but those who had not been on the battlefield to kill the enemy were slowly adapting to it at this moment. In his eyes, he gradually brought a murderous aura. With the counterattack of the Luo family's army, the defenders also suffered many casualties. After all, among the soldiers of the Luo family, there were nearly a thousand archers. Moreover, they were more skilled in combat than the defenders. However, they were in a disadvantageous position, and the defenders had the help of the Zhao army's armor and equipment, and in general, the losses of the Luo family army were far greater than those of the defenders.

"Damn! Jiang Ming, there is a kind of don't retreat, come and fight with Lao Tzu! Moving forward, I found that I was not much closer to Jiang Ming, and moreover, Luo Hu, who had fallen one after another with the brothers around him, couldn't help but roar angrily.

"Good! Since you want to die, then I will fulfill you! Gu Shan saw that Luo Hu was challenged, there were less than a thousand people left in the Luo family's army, and the task of training soldiers was basically completed, so he motioned to Gu Shan to respond loudly.

Immediately after that, dozens of torches were lit, forming a sea ......of fire, which illuminated the streets that had been completely dimmed. Guarded by hundreds of soldiers, Jiang Ming and several others showed their figures in front of Luo Hu and Linlin. Among these hundreds of soldiers, dozens of people at the front were dressed in armor that only officers have, armed with spears, bows and arrows, and Zhao Guo's horizontal swords hanging from their waists. At the forefront, two knights stood, and behind them were the four generals of the defenders of the city.

"Who are you?" Before Luo Hu could speak, the corners of Linlin's eyes tightened, and he asked Gu Shan in a deep voice.

Gu Shan said with a smile: "Of course, I am the leader of the righteous army, the general under the command of the leader of Jiang Ming." Why, you want to surrender? ”

Forestry glanced at the dozens of cavalrymen, and said coldly: "Little rebels, dare to call themselves soldiers? Many of the leaders under the command of Leader Jiang are also known to the general, but there is no such thing as you. And you shouldn't have so many armor and equipment, even the private soldiers of the squire clan won't have such equipment, let alone you war horses. ”

"If my expectations are not bad, you are a member of the Zhao army, only the soldiers of Zhao will have such a configuration, I didn't want to fight, the people of the Zhao army have already reached here. However, do you think this Yangzhou land is the territory of the Northern Zhao State? Sooner or later, my army will wipe you out. ”

"Too much nonsense!" Gu Shan sneered, "You can't see what will happen in the future, since you are here today, don't leave." Gu Shan raised the spear in his hand, pointed directly at the other party, and said loudly, "Last time, surrender or die?" ”

"Boy, when Lao Tzu was messing around in the east of Yangzhou, you didn't know where to play with mud. Want me to surrender, delusional! If there is a kind, come and fight Lao Tzu! See if you die by my knife or if you leave me here. Luo Hu was a little dizzy by what Forestry said. Zhao Jun's people actually came here, so can the Qi army still take here? Of course, he knew that Yangzhou was the headquarters of the Qi army, and the Qi army occupied an absolute advantage here. But the problem is that there are not many Qi troops in Songjiang Mansion, and they still think that the surrender of the Luo family army can quickly take here. However, at this moment, he has no way back. Surrendered to Zhao Jun, he didn't think that with his style of acting, he surrendered Zhao Jun, but he was afraid that there would be no good result.

"I don't know whether to live or die, since you are looking for death, then this captain will fulfill you, thief, accept your life!" After listening to Luo Hu's answer, Gu Shan gave up his surrender and roared angrily.

"Kill!" Luo Hu also rode forward. Of course, the war horse that Luo Hu sat on was far inferior to Zhao Jun's war horse.

"Brothers, kill me! Kill them! After Lin Lin knew that the other party was a person sent by Zhao Jun, his first thought was to get rid of the other party. Therefore, after Luo Hu rushed to kill, he also drank violently, and followed suit, wanting to unite with Luo Hu to kill the other party on the spot. Maybe because he killed the other party, he could still force Jiang Ming to surrender and turn defeat into victory. In his opinion, if the person sent by Zhao Jun died, Jiang Ming would also have to reconsider the way out.

"Despicable! Brethren, up! Seeing this, the four generals behind Jiang Ming also shouted violently and greeted them. The Zhao soldiers behind them and many of the defending soldiers roared in unison and rushed towards each other.

Luo Hu saw that the battle between the two had turned into a battle between the two armies, and he wanted to scold angrily, but the situation was like this, he didn't continue to say anything, and in the face of this rolling murderous aura, he could only fight.

"Boom." The next moment, the armies of the two sides handed over, as if two torrents collided, and immediately hit the splash, but the real incentive was the splash, and the collision between the two armies was red blood.

"Kill...... Kill...... Kill. "At the moment of the collision, the fighting has already entered the white-hot level, whether it is the defenders or the Luo Jiajun, they all understand that if they don't fight hard at this time, it is a death, and the two armies are fighting, and there is no way to retreat. One side wanted to live, the other side wanted to annihilate the other, and the soldiers of the two sides began to fight fiercely. Of course, the soldiers in the rear still used arrows to shoot, and the Luo family army on the street and the defenders on both sides of the street also launched a fierce fight.

The spears went in and out, and the lives fell one by one. At this moment, this frontmost place of battle is the land of Shura. Both sides are very desperate, they have tried their best, and they are both capable of killing. But in everything, there is always a high and low.

And there was undoubtedly the defenders, that is, the rebel side that was renamed the Jieyi Army by Gu Shan, who had the upper hand. One is the psychological advantage, the Jieyi army is in the city, and the gate of the Quartet is closed, and every soldier is very stable.

On the contrary, the Luo family army is now trapped in the city, surrounded by the Jieyi army. Although they dare to fight and can fight, they can't fight their way out of the encirclement, no matter how powerful they are, it is a dead end. In this Huating County, there are not only thousands of righteous soldiers, but also countless people, these people are all on the side of the defenders.

The second is the number of troops, the Luo family army wants to use a plan to raid the city, and enter the city under the banner of defeat, so its total is only more than 3,000 people, and with consumption, they gradually decrease. But the defenders were different. There are 5,000 soldiers alone, not to mention that this is the territory of the defenders, and manpower is not very scarce.

However, the most serious thing is that among the defenders, there are hundreds of Zhao soldiers, they are not comparable to ordinary refugee rebels, they are more powerful than everyone present for battlefield combat.

"Kill them......" Soon, there was an earth-shattering shout of killing around the entire Xicheng, and countless torches also lit up the entire Xicheng. Seeing this scene, whether it was the Luo family army or the defenders, they couldn't help but look sideways. After a while, they saw that the people who came turned out to be the people of the city, and most of them were refugees who had been accepted and relieved by Jiang Ming. At this moment, they came to support with all kinds of things in their hands.

Seeing this, Jiang Ming couldn't help but look happy, and then frowned. It would be of great benefit to these people to come to their support, but it would not be a good thing to let them rush into the battlefield, and there might be many casualties, and even some enemy troops would escape. As a last resort, Jiang Ming asked people to arrange for these people to assist them and prevent them from entering the battlefield. Of course, only some refugees who have experience in killing enemies can join them.

These refugees came to support, and the huge momentum suddenly raised the morale of the Jieyi Army to the top, so that the advantage of the Jieyi Army had reached an unattainable height, and the Luo Jiajun was on the verge of collapse. Trapped in the city, invincible, unable to retreat, what is left except a dead end?

Not to mention ordinary soldiers, after feeling the change in their breath, even Luo Hu and Forestry fell into a burst of despair at this moment.

Am I going to die here? Dead at the hands of this unknown general? I also want to be a general, and together with my eldest brother, I will be a master, so that all the squires who look down on us will prostrate at my feet...... Thinking of this, Luo Hu is very unwilling, but what can he do if he is unwilling?

"You are distracted, it seems that you are the one who has entered the death! Kill ......" Gu Shan, who had been fighting with Luo Hu for several rounds, snorted coldly, and rushed towards the other party again.

"Hmph, boy, you don't deserve to kill me, die!" Luo Hu snorted coldly, held the big knife, and faced Gu Shan.

One shot at the other, and in an instant, they clashed again.

"Bang bang......" The sound of the two sides clashing constantly sounded, very urgent, and it seemed that the next moment was going to divide the winner, but in fact, it was a dead end.

"Die!" Gu Shan roared, and the spear in his hand flashed with cold light, as if it was lightning, and hit the neck of Luo Hu, who had just turned around, and Luo Hu had no time to react. Because, the war horse under his crotch was unconsciously unable to withstand the impact of the battle between the two sides. After all, his war horse was not the one owned by Zhao Jun.

"Flutter." The next moment, Luo Hu's neck was instantly pierced, and then it was crossed off by the huge impact of the spear, flew up, drew a tragic arc, and finally fell to the ground.

"The general is brave!"

"The general is brave!"

Suddenly, the sergeants of Zhao and the defenders in the place of battle roared in unison. Especially the non-commissioned officers of the garrison, although they did not know much about the newly arrived general, but now that they could kill the local general, they had forgotten everything and only the thought of cheering for him.

"Kill ......" Gu Shan waved his spear and roared angrily. At this moment, he is the god of the battlefield.

The general is the courage of the soldiers! The soul of the army! Therefore, at this moment the soldiers were crazy, and after cheering, they let out a roar of rage, holding sharp spears, and their eyes flashed with unparalleled fierceness, looking for the enemy soldiers on the opposite side, and killing them. Like a wolf and a tiger, they can only be described as like a wolf and a tiger, they have forgotten their fears.

And what about the soldiers of the Luo family? They were already stunned by the events in front of them, and they had fallen for the scheme and were trapped in the city. Now, the commander of the army is gone, and the soldiers are panicked all of a sudden, as if they have lost their backbone, and they have become scattered sand.

"Don't panic, kill them and avenge the general!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Forestry roared.

......Before he could finish speaking, more than a dozen arrows shot him into a hornet's nest and died on the spot. No way, who made him so conspicuous.

"Flutter...... Flutter ......"

"Uh...... Run...... The general is dead......"

Facing the red-eyed Jieyi soldiers, the Luo family soldiers who had no main general suddenly turned into a rabble, and in the screams, they were pierced by spears and fell in a pool of blood.

In just a moment, countless soldiers of the Luo family became victims. Seeing that there were not many enemy troops left on the battlefield, Gu Shan, who still wanted to know the situation of the enemy army, issued an order to surrender.

Under the slogan of not killing those who surrender and the red eyes of the Jieyi soldiers, without the main general, the remnants of the Luo family army, who were at a loss, finally put down the weapons in their hands and surrendered to the Jieyi army.

"We have won! Annihilated the Qi army! Gu Shan looked around, raised his gun and shouted.

"Victorious...... Victorious...... Ahhhh......h

Looking at the enemy soldiers who surrendered, the soldiers who were still in a nervous mood suddenly shouted uncontrollably after hearing Gu Shan raise their guns and cheer. Subsequently, the surrounding refugees also responded in unison, and in an instant, cheers, huge cheers, instantly enveloped the entire county.

"Wu Qingyu, immediately send people to treat the wounded soldiers, settle the prisoners, don't abuse them. Lin Changkong immediately sent someone to clean up the battlefield, and the corpses of our soldiers were sorted out and buried in the coming day. The corpses of the enemy soldiers were burned outside the city to prevent the appearance of the hot plague. Sima Lin, collect our trophies and count the casualties of our army. Ma Qing, inspect the city, beware of the Qi army attacking again. Don't get carried away with the victory, and don't let the enemy attack us at night. ”

"Obey!" The four generals under the command of Yuan Jiang Ming responded loudly in unison. At this moment, they have obeyed each other and are willing to follow each other's instructions. They are soldiers, soldiers, and naturally hope that their master will be a man who can fight well.

After issuing the military order, Gu Shan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, now, he really had a firm foothold here, not because he was the envoy of the Zhao army. If you want to gain a foothold in this, you can't rely on your identity alone, but on your own ability. Otherwise, it is not so easy to make the people here listen to their own words perfectly.
