After a while, the gate of Gaoyou City was wide open, Xu Yi took the lead, leading 5,000 soldiers and horses to kill quickly, Xu Yi knew that he was not Chang Yuchun's opponent alone, so he ordered the army to directly impact the large array of the captive army. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Deng Yue saw it, and quickly ordered Lu Zhen to lead a group of soldiers and horses to meet the attack, Lu Zhen received the order, led three thousand pikemen to rush out of the formation, and the soldiers on both sides collided violently and strangled together.
Seeing that the battle situation was tight, Xu Yi led 800 cavalry to rush towards the middle army of the Broken Army, Deng Yue smiled coldly, and quickly sent Chang Yuchun to lead 600 Broken Cavalry to meet the attack.
Chang Yuchun received the order with a loud voice, and six hundred well-equipped cavalry of the Broken Army quickly followed Chang Yuchun.
Chang Yuchun took the lead, holding a tiger's head Zhan golden gun, and intercepted Xu Yi in the oblique stab, Xu Yi saw Chang Yuchun killing, his heart was slightly shocked, and he danced the iron gun to kill Chang Yuchun.
At the same time, the broken iron cavalry charged with a spear, and the cavalry of the Zhou army also greeted each other with a spear, and the two cavalry collided in shock, and in an instant, a group of people turned over on their horses, but most of the people who fell from the horse were the cavalry of the Zhou army.
Xu Yi and Chang Yuchun clashed for seven or eight rounds, and suddenly saw that their own army was in chaos, and the cavalry of the Zhou army attacked more and less, but they were killed by the cavalry and retreated.
Xu Yi panicked, and after killing Chang Yuchun for a few rounds, he suddenly pulled out his horse and fled, Chang Yuchun hurriedly rode his horse to chase after him, and when he was about to chase Xu Yi, Xu Yi suddenly shouted, and he actually killed a move back to the horse pistol.
Chang Yuchun's heart was cold, and he hurriedly avoided it sideways, taking advantage of this gap, Xu Yi hurriedly rode his horse away, and quickly ordered the Zhou army to withdraw to the city.
The broken army covered up and killed under the city, and was forced to retreat by the Zhou soldiers at the head of the city.
However, Xu Yi didn't know that when the two armies were fighting, the envoy of the Li family had contacted Deng Yu again and presented a secret letter from the wealthy merchants in the city.
I saw the secret letter written: At the fourth watch tonight, the south city gate sounded the gong as a trumpet, and the city gate was captured.
Deng Yue was overjoyed to see the letter, and after returning to the camp, he quickly made arrangements, and as soon as the hour came, he personally led his troops to attack Gaoyou City.
Zhang Yu, who joined the army, was worried that Deng Yue would lose, so he hurriedly admonished Deng Yue: "The marshal is the body of ten thousand gold, how can he be involved in danger in person, it is better to respond outside the city and wait for the good news!" ”
When Deng Yu heard this, he shook his head slightly, and said angrily: "Ning Ji is kind, Ben Shuai understands it, but the soldiers are fighting to the death for the great cause of Ben Shuai, if Ben Shuai is greedy for life and afraid of death, wouldn't it chill the hearts of all the soldiers, besides, Ben Shuai has the Tiger Wing Liuyun Knife in his hand, and it is more than enough for self-preservation, Ning Ji doesn't have to worry too much!" ”
When the officers of the Broken Army heard Deng Yu's heartfelt words, they were all filled with earth-shattering war intent, and they were all willing to sacrifice their lives for Deng Yu!
After nightfall, at the Gaoyou City Gate, Xu Yizheng led the army to patrol, and suddenly saw two men, sneakily looking around ten steps away from the south gate.
Xu Yi was suspicious in his heart, and hurriedly approached, but when the two men saw Xu Yi, they seemed to have a ghost in their hearts, and they ran away.
Xu Yi was shocked, and hurriedly sent soldiers to chase him, but he didn't know that the two men seemed to be extremely familiar with the terrain in the city, turned left and right, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Xu Yi couldn't catch up, and secretly looked at the people shuttling around, recalling the scene of the two men fleeing just now, and found that many of them were interested in helping, so he let the two men escape.
Xu Yi frowned, looked at the people around him again, and saw that many people were hostile to him and the Zhou soldiers around him.
Suddenly, Xu Yi seemed to think of something, his face changed drastically, and he hurriedly rushed to the Gaoyou Mansion to see Zhang Shixin.
Zhang Shixin was drinking and playing with Xinna's concubine at this time, and when he heard Xu Yi asking to see him, he was slightly displeased, but he wanted to rely on him a lot to guard Gaoyou City, so he recruited Xu Yi in.
After a while, Xu Yi entered the inner room, and when he saw Zhang Shixin, he hurriedly admonished: "General Shixin, the people and wealthy merchants in the city are hostile to our army, but I am afraid that they are secretly planning to dedicate the city to the enemy, and it is really necessary to guard against it. ”
When Zhang Shixin heard this, he was suspicious: "Iwakawa is making a big fuss, right?" I think all you need to do is patrol tightly!
After thinking about it, Xu Yi also felt that what Zhang Shixin said was reasonable, after all, if he recruited strong men and wealthy merchants to defend the city, it was likely to force them to rebel.
After leaving the mansion, as a precaution, Xu Yi inspected the city defense again.
In the middle of the night, in the south gate dwellings, there were already more than 1,000 brave people waiting in ambush.
Li Chenghui, the head of the Li family, saw that Zhou Bing was heavily guarded, and was hesitating whether to start an incident tonight, at this time, a wealthy businessman surnamed Zhang persuaded loudly: "Master Li, Deng Dashuai has led the army to make arrangements, and at this time it is already ready to be sent, that Zhang Shixin is greedy, he lives one more day, we will lose a lot of family assets, rather than cheap that dog thief, it is better to fight!" ”
The voice of the wealthy businessman surnamed Zhang fell, and the surrounding five or six big families in the city also echoed in unison, Li Chenghui put his heart horizontally, and immediately called someone to give an order, and after half an hour, they all rushed to the south gate, seized the city gate, and let the captives enter the city.
At the time of the fourth watch, there was silence around the south gate, and suddenly, the crowd of people in the south gate dwellings surged, rushing out countless brave men with knives and guns, looking at the south gate to rush away.
Seeing this, the defenders of the south gate hurriedly lined up to meet the attack, and at the same time sent a few light horsemen to run around and report to the gates.
More than 1,000 brave people swarmed up, fearless to the death and the Zhou soldiers to fight, after about a quarter of an hour of melee, dozens of brave people broke through the Zhou soldiers' blockade, and went to push open the city gate.
Seeing this, the city gate guards were immediately shocked, and hurriedly divided their troops to stop them, and at this time, dozens of brave men rushed to the city and wanted to let go of the drawbridge.
Deng Yu, who was waiting outside the south gate, heard the shouting of killing inside the south gate, and immediately rejoiced, and urgently ordered the army to prepare.
It didn't take long for the south gate to open widely, Deng Yue saw it, and was about to wave his troops to attack, at this time, Chang Yuchun on the side frowned, staring at the suspension bridge that had not fallen for a long time, and then admonished Deng Yue: "Dashuai, although the city gate is wide open, but the suspension bridge has not fallen for a long time, I am afraid that there is fraud, it is better to wait and see the changes now, and wait for the opportunity to move!" ”
Deng Yu thought that Chang Yuchun had been earned into the city by Xu Yi before, and hesitated at the moment.
Inside the south gate, thousands of strong men rushed to kill, and finally killed the head of the city, cut the sling, and let down the drawbridge, but they didn't see the broken army immediately killing, and they were all so anxious that their hearts were like fire.
The suspension bridge fell suddenly, the Zhou soldiers at the south gate saw it clearly, and they sacrificed their lives to kill, and the shouting of killing in the direction of the south gate was earth-shattering, and the remaining three defenders also rushed to the rescue.
Deng Yue saw that the drawbridge was down, only then did he know that there was no fraud, and he didn't regret missing the opportunity, so he immediately ordered the whole army to attack.
