At this moment, suddenly a scout came to report, there were many chaotic sounds in Xuyi City, suspected that there was a change, Zhang Shicheng was full of suspicion after hearing it, and immediately led the generals to a high slope to check in person.
From a distance, Zhang Shicheng saw that there were flags planted all over Xuyi City, but few people patrolled, and saw the bundles of packages under the waists of the soldiers of the Broken Army, and immediately laughed loudly, and the generals were puzzled and came to ask.
Zhang Shicheng then explained his doubts to the generals: "This Deng Yue thief has been broken by our army, and in recent days, he has been intimidated by the military might of my tiger and wolf army, and there is nothing to be done at the moment, he must be preparing to evacuate Xuyi City!" ”
Zhang Shicheng was confident, as if everything was not as he expected, after returning to the camp, he immediately ordered to attack Xuyi City, if the defenders were not high, they would break the city in one go, and Pan Yuanming's department was the rear wing, and randomly responded.
After Zhang Shicheng finished the transfer, he personally led the army to attack Xuyi City, Deng Yue saw it, the corners of his mouth curled up a strange arc, led the troops out of the city, and set up a position under the city.
Where the drums of the two armies were fighting, Deng Yue came out of the battle and pointed at Ling Tian with the tiger wings and flowing cloud sword, and shouted to Zhang Shicheng: "Zhang Shicheng, you and I are both anti-Mongolian rebels, why don't you think about attacking the Tartar court and rescuing the suffering Han compatriots, but you come to kill my soldiers and seize my territory?" ”
When Zhang Shicheng heard Deng Yu's reprimand, he immediately said angrily: "Deng Yue thief, this king kindly recruited you, you not only instructed your subordinates to maliciously insult the messenger sent by this king, but also killed my brother, you really deserve death!" ”
After hearing this, Deng Yu laughed angrily, stared sharply, burst out two mighty lights, and scolded Zhang Shicheng: "Salt seller stupid thief, you embezzle friendly troops for your own selfishness, how dare you be so shameless? Your brother took my city and killed five thousand of my Xuyi brothers, and he deserved to be killed! ”
Zhang Shicheng was furious, and after reviewing the formation, he shouted: "Who dares to go out of the battle and catch this rebellious thief for this king!" ”
As soon as Zhang Shicheng's voice fell, Yan Zaixing rushed out with an eight-foot long knife in his hand, and the whole person was like a peerless tiger that broke out of the cage, full of evil winds, and went straight to take Deng Yu.
Deng Yue saw Yan Zaixing so vicious, but he was not afraid, he mentioned the Tiger Wing Liuyun Knife, and rode a horse to fight Yan Zaixing, when the two horses were close, the Tiger Wing Liuyun Knife slashed towards Yan Zaixing's face like a silver lightning.
Yan Zaixing shouted violently, twisted the knife and swept away, only to hear the roar of the 'bell', the sharp metal impact pierced the eardrums, the two horses rushed past, and soon turned the direction and charged again.
The two big swords collided quickly, and the dazzling sparks violently erupted, and the two of them killed more than 50 times, but they still did not distinguish between victory and defeat, and the soldiers of the two armies were amazed.
Zhang Shicheng saw that Yan Zaixing was anxious and difficult to take Deng Yu, and asked Li Bosheng to go to help in the battle.
Deng Yu's sharp eyes froze, shook his spirit, and waved his knife to meet Li Bosheng, and for a while, the three generals fought on the horses, and the three war horses turned like a T-shape.
After more than thirty or so combined, Deng Yue fell into a disadvantage, and was about to be defeated by the two, Deng Yue shouted violently, and the Tiger Wing Liuyun Knife carried the power of piercing the golden cracking stone, brazenly crashed into the weapons of the two, and quickly retreated to the main formation.
Li Bosheng and Yan Zaixing saw that they were willing to let Deng Yu escape, and the two immediately chased and killed Deng Yu, and scolded in unison in unison.
Zhang Shicheng saw that Deng Yue was one enemy and two enemies, and he was able to get out unharmed, and thought to himself: It is rumored that this Deng Yue thief is both civil and military, and when he sees it today, he really lives up to his reputation! Such a character, if you can't use it for yourself, then you need to get rid of it urgently, otherwise there will be endless troubles!
After Zhang Shicheng thought about it, he immediately ordered the army to press, and he was afraid of the former, and they were all killed!
With Zhang Shicheng's order, the soldiers of the Zhou army stepped forward bravely, and Li Bosheng and Yan Zaixing took the lead in the formation of the broken army, and the weapons danced wildly, rolling up pieces of bloody rain.
Deng Yu turned around to resist for a while, seeing that the whole Zhou army was pressing, it was difficult to resist, so he led the army to retreat at the gate of Xuyi, and the defenders at the head of the city saw Deng Yu 'fleeing', and hurriedly opened the city gate and put down the drawbridge, but Deng Yu and his party were chased by the Zhou army tightly, and the drawbridge slowly fell, and they couldn't wait to enter, so they had no choice but to go around the city.
Zhang Shicheng was overjoyed when he saw this, and quickly ordered Li Bosheng and Yan Zaixing to lead troops to pursue, and at the same time, he saw that the city gate was wide open, and there were not many defenders at the head of the city, and he personally led the army to seize the city.
At the head of Xuyi City, Zhang Qiwang saw Zhang Shicheng rushing into the city, and secretly exclaimed: "Yunqi Military Master is not very old, but he has the wisdom of gods and ghosts!" ”
However, it was said that Zhang Shicheng rushed into the city surrounded by the guards, and suddenly, a drum sounded prominently, and thousands of arrows were fired at the city heads on both sides of the urn city, like a downpour, falling wildly.
The Zhou soldiers who rushed to enter the city first were either shot by the bow and crossbow, or fell into the pit, and the army behind did not know the situation in front of them, but still swarmed in.
Zhang Qi was overjoyed to see it, quickly drew his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow at Zhang Shicheng, Zhang Shicheng hurriedly avoided it, and it happened that another soldier turned over and rushed back to Zhang Shicheng.
Zhang Qi's arrow immediately hit, hitting Zhang Shicheng's left abdomen, Zhang Shicheng screamed miserably, and the guards were shocked and hurriedly sacrificed their lives to save them.
The arrows at the head of the city did not stop, countless Zhou soldiers sacrificed their lives to block, Zhang Shicheng was protected by his own guards, so as to save his life, and then, under the protection of a Zhou army, he fled outside the city.
At this moment, Hu Dahai led a group of men and horses to detour from the left side of the city to kill, shouting to capture Zhang Shicheng alive, and a group of Zhou soldiers had just fled back from the gate of hell, and when they saw that there were enemy troops killed, they were so frightened that they trampled on each other, and countless people fell into the moat.
The army was fierce, Hu Dahai took the lead, led more than 100 horsemen, and went straight into the Chinese army to capture Zhang Shicheng.
On the other side, Yan Zaixing and Li Bosheng were chasing and killing Deng Yu, and suddenly a soldier came to report, saying that Zhang Shicheng was planning and was being chased and killed by Hu Dahai, and the two immediately returned to the division to rescue.
Seeing this, Deng Yue's eyes lit up, and he immediately led his troops back to cover the kill, the Zhou army retreated in a panic and was defeated, at the same time, Zhang Qi also led a group of soldiers and horses from the city to intercept and kill, for a time, the Zhou army's formation was in chaos, and the army was killed without the power to fight back, and it was about to be wiped out.
At the critical moment, Pan Yuanming and Zhao Shixiong each led an army to the rescue from the stinging slanting to the rescue, blocking Deng Yu and Zhang Qi's army, on the other side, Hu Dahai was about to catch up with Zhang Shicheng, and suddenly saw Yan Zaixing and Li Bosheng intercepting the oblique stabbing and killing, Hu Dahai knew that the opportunity to kill Zhang Shicheng had gone, so he had to lead the troops to retreat first.
Deng Yu, Zhang Qi, and Hu Dahai led the victorious army back to the city, and when they entered the city, they saw that the corpses inside and outside the city of Xuyi were all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river, and the swords, guns, and armor of the Zhou army, and the broken flags fell all over the ground, and the wind blew up, and it was full of strong bloody smell.
