Outside the city, Ma Lan saw the success of the door, and immediately shouted happily, after some efforts, it was not in vain, and now that the city gate has been opened, it means that the western capital is broken.

"Brothers, kill me and capture Wang Xu alive!"

Ma Lan shouted, the 100,000 army roared frantically forward, they are not in the mood to put any formation now, the wide open city gate is in front of them, they are now excited or excited, the five-zhang high city wall, finally don't have to climb so hard.

The outer city gate is completely controlled by the men in black, and now there are more than 3,000 men in black here, and most of the soldiers who rushed down from the city tower have been eliminated by them, and the remaining half are still fighting bloodily.

Li Zhi arrived in a hurry with thousands of soldiers, and as soon as he came out, he saw Ma Lan's tens of thousands of iron horsemen killing here, less than a hundred steps away from the city gate.

Li Zhi was shocked, what is the situation?

The first lieutenant was horrified: "General, it's the enemy's cavalry!" ”

Li Zhi raised his eyes and looked anxious, he didn't know how this city gate came into the hands of the enemy, but he knew that it had reached the most critical moment, and he must not let the enemy succeed.

"Command the enemy to meet and kill the enemy back!"

Li Zhi brought his own war horse, and then turned over, he is now constantly blaming himself in his heart, this kind of thing happened within his jurisdiction, it should not be, if he does not redeem the defeat, how to face King Wen.

The captain surrendered his promise, and then ran towards the city gate with thousands of soldiers behind Li Zhi, the most important thing now is to take the city gate back, otherwise there will be countless enemies entering the city, and at that time, the west will be broken.

The outer city beat the war drums, which alarmed the people in the north school field, Zhang Meng led a team of Yulin troops to the inner city wall, and saw that Deng Hai was guarding there, and countless enemies were going out from there, Zhang Meng was furious. Jinyiwei had already told him just now, those black-clothed people were all officers and soldiers.

"Son of a bitch, if you dare to join the enemy, I will smash you!"

Zhang Meng and Zheng Xiang were still a few feet away at this time. But Zhang Meng couldn't control it so much, the hammer roared out and smashed directly at Zheng Xiang's head, in his eyes, Zheng Xiang was now a traitor. Helping the enemy is absolutely unforgivable!

Zhang Meng's hammer arrived immediately, directly smashing Zheng Xiang out of the air, and his head changed shape, wrong! It's so wronged!

At this time, there were still many black-clothed people running out here, Zhang Meng gave an order, and the hundreds of feathered forest troops behind him immediately stepped forward to attack, but those black-clothed people did not fight with them at all, and everyone spread their feet and ran to the outer city.

"Guard this gate. If there is a bad pool, all of them will die! Zhang Meng looked at the soldiers under Zheng Xiang and shouted loudly. As soon as he finished speaking, he walked towards the outer city with hundreds of forest troops.

Li Zhi was leading thousands of people to fight at the gate of the outer city at this time, he rushed to the front line with a long knife in his hand, and blocked the attack of the enemy's cavalry, and the thousands of soldiers behind Li Zhi also surrounded the three layers inside and outside here.

"Puff puff..."

With a sweep of the long knife in his hand, he killed several enemy cavalry, and at the same time, Li Zhi quickly flashed into the military formation set up behind: "Quickly release the arrow." Shoot the arrow.... ”

Whoosh...

The arrows shot forward viciously, and suddenly, a large number of officers and soldiers and cavalry fell, but. There were too many cavalrymen, and they shot down a batch, and rushed in again, which kept coming, which made Li Zhi very worried.

Suddenly, the cavalry changed hands with archers. rushed over, forcing the soldiers beside Li Zhi back a few feet, the battle line was lengthened, and the enemy cavalry drove in.

Li Zhi was shocked, it was obviously impossible to go on like this, and he couldn't stop the enemy army at all!

Zhang Meng strode over with hundreds of Lin troops, and he saw Li Zhi from a distance, Zhang Meng stepped forward and said, "General Li, what's going on?" ”

Li Zhi was also puzzled, and said: "I don't know, this city gate is in the hands of the enemy." ”

Zhang Meng sledgehammer in one fell swoop: "Then kill them back, the city must not be lost!" ”

...............

.................

Half an hour later, Wang Xu went to the military camp to transfer Liao Yun and Sun Yu's troops, and the dog also came with him, and the three of them walked up to the wall of the inner city in the north together, and looked in front of them, there were enemy troops everywhere, and the outer city had been lost!

Li Zhi and Zhang Meng were fighting bloodily, surrounded by countless enemy troops, iron cavalry were fighting everywhere, and blood stained the streets red.

Wang Xu frowned tightly, the enemy had already entered the city by tens of thousands, and Li Zhi's 20,000 subordinates were now very few left, and the military camp was occupied by Ma Lan, and the defeat was decided.

Sun Yu said: "Lord, Li Zhi, they can't stand it anymore. ”

Liao Yun hurriedly said: "Lord, you give the order, we will kill it, fight with the enemy, and the outer city cannot be lost." ”

Why can't the outer city be lost? Isn't it just that the city wall is a little higher, what's the big deal, you can still defend the inner city if you lose the outer city, and the most important thing now is to preserve your strength.

Wang Xu said: "Order the withdrawal of the army, let Li Zhi and them retreat to the inner city, and we don't want the outer city wall." ”

The two of them were shocked at the same time, the outer city was lost, and the inner city was still guarded. The most important thing is that there are still hundreds of thousands of people in the outer city, and there are so many fortification equipment that are fortunately prepared, but there is nothing in the inner city, and if the enemy fights, the city will be broken.

"Order Huang Quan, give up the outer city, and immediately transfer to the inner city."

Wang Xu looked at Sun Yu and said, "While Zhang Meng and Li Zhi have not been completely surrounded by the enemy now, you can lead five thousand light horsemen down to meet them and quickly take the two of them to the city." ”

"No." Sun Yu sighed and turned to go downstairs.

Everyone was worried, but Wang Xu was not worried at all, because he had already thought of a strategy to retreat from the enemy, uh... No, to be precise, this strategy was conceived by Zhang Xue, which can make the enemy unable to attack the city.

.................

"Li Zhi, Zhang Meng, quickly retreat to the inner city!" Sun Yu drank.

Sun Yu arrived with 5,000 light cavalry, completely breaking up the encirclement of officers and soldiers, and opening a huge opening.

"Puff puff..."

Li Zhi slashed over the enemy's two iron cavalry with a knife, and then quickly ran towards the inner city, he had already wanted to retreat, but he lost the outer city and couldn't explain to Wang Xu, so he fought desperately, he knew very well in his heart that killing like this was just a meaningless sacrifice, and when it came to field warfare, officers and soldiers had a great advantage.

Zhang Meng refused to retreat even if he died, but at this time, the signal of Mingjin in the rear sounded, and Zhang Meng had no choice but to follow behind Li Zhi and withdraw with the remaining remnants of the surrounding soldiers.

Sun Yu's 5,000 iron cavalry was at the forefront, but they were also fighting and retreating.

Wang Xu's eyes were like torches, staring at the city, and seeing that Li Zhi, Zhang Meng and Sun Yu had crossed the drawbridge under the city, he immediately asked people to raise the drawbridge, and suddenly, there were thousands of cavalry and more than 2,000 soldiers of Li Zhi and Huangquan were blocked out of the drawbridge, and they were being brutally slaughtered by officers and soldiers.

Liao Yun wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak, because Wang Xu did the right thing, and it was also helpless to abandon the two or three thousand brothers.

"Close the gates." Sun Yu was the last to enter the city on this side of the drawbridge, and as soon as he entered the city gate, he ordered someone to close it.

Sun Yu and the three came to the city wall, and at the same time, Huang Quan also came, and now he has shrunk all the troops in the outer city on the wall of the inner city, but he is quite incomprehensible about this decision.

Li Zhi looked guilty, and said with a bellflower: "The lord... I.... ”

Wang Xu waved his hand: "I don't want to hear any explanation, you can go back to the barracks for a while to rest during this time, this city wall is guarded by Liao Yun." ”

Liao Yun's expression was shocked: "Don't worry, the lord will definitely defend the city wall." ”

Wang Xu didn't say anything more, turned around and looked at the enemy army in the distance below the city, now the soldiers who were still outside the city on his side had been almost killed by Ma Lan, and Ma Lan was also gathering troops to occupy the outer city wall and the military camp.

Suddenly, Li Zhijun also began to sing gold, and immediately afterward, the officers and soldiers retreated on all fronts and retreated to the outer city wall.

In this battle, the Western Capital Army suffered heavy casualties, Li Zhi's 20,000 subordinates only more than 5,000 people withdrew into the inner city, Sun Yu's cavalry also lost nearly 2,000, and Zhang Meng's Yulin Army 500, in total, 18,000 soldiers were killed in the battle, and the four walls of the outer city were lost, as well as hundreds of thousands of people.

At dawn, many people flocked to the inner city for refuge, but Wang Xu had already ordered that all the four gates of the inner city were closed, and no one would open them. (To be continued.) )
