The Changsheng Battalion, the Whirlwind Battalion, the Yizhou Battalion, and the Red Cavalry that followed from the southern city quickly advanced into the city. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 At this time, there was a great chaos in Luoyang City, and the defenders of Beicheng, who were a little slower, were immediately cut off from retreating, and Jiang Kui of the Whirlwind Battalion led more than 10,000 cavalry to block the passage to the imperial city, and the defenders of Beicheng were attacked on both sides.

After Wang Yan of the Changsheng battalion entered the city, he smashed the Luoyang garrison yamen, which was the highest command post of the Luoyang garrison of the army, and it was also the station of Xiang Ping.

Countless torches illuminated the garrison yamen, the gate of the yamen was closed, and a dense rain of arrows shot out from inside, and on the high walls, there were still soldiers holding spears and swords in desperate resistance, and occasionally some stone bullets were fired from inside, and it was obvious that there were some scorpion cannons inside.

"Why haven't you gotten in yet? What are you grinding about? "Wang Yan galloped to the horse, this garrison yamen is the first target of the Changsheng battalion, but Wang Yan definitely doesn't want to delay too much time here, the city is in chaos right now, and the enemy has withdrawn to the imperial city, which is a good time to pursue and destroy.

"General Hui, there are still a lot of enemies in the garrison yamen, and they are formed teams, relying on the wall to resist." A general ran up to report back.

"And the enemies of the formation?" Wang Yan was not surprised, "Could it be that Xiang Ping hasn't been able to run yet?" He jumped off his horse, took his meteor hammer, and shouted, "Get out of the way, I'll smash this turtle shell!" ”

The Dingzhou soldiers dodged one after another.

Dancing his meteor hammer like a windmill, Wang Yan ran towards the gate with a loud shout, and the two meteor hammers hit the gate one after the other. In the midst of two loud bangs, the gate was smashed into chaos, and the soldiers cheered and rushed up, and the smashed gate immediately fell backwards.

The Dingzhou soldiers who were about to rush into the gate were all frozen there the moment they stepped into the courtyard gate, facing the gate. The muzzle of a Kamui cannon was facing their direction in the black hole, and behind the Kamui cannon, the fire rope was burning with a sizzle. On one side of the courtyard, more than a dozen cannons were still neatly stacked, obviously in a hurry. The enemy in the courtyard had only time to prepare a cannon.

Among the soldiers, Wang Yan also saw the fire rope that was rapidly shortening, and the sweat on his head fell, almost at the moment when the fire rope retracted into the cannon, Wang Yan shouted: "Lie down!" And he fell straight to the ground.

A loud bang almost burst everyone's eardrums, and Wang Yan felt his ears buzzing. Something whining and flying overhead. There was a scream behind him.

Wang Yan jumped up, but the scene in front of him made him dumbfounded, the Shenwei cannon did sound, but the cannonball did not come out, the place where the Shenwei cannon was installed in the yard was in a mess, and half of the cannon barrel was blown up. The gun carriage and the rear half of the cannons were lifted up and fell into the Kamui cannon group on the other side. Smash the artillery there to the ground.

The Luoyang soldiers gathered there were blown up to pieces, and most of them were already dead on the spot. The few survivors were either missing arms or legs, and were lying there groaning in pain.

In an instant, Wang Yan had already figured out the whole story, these Luoyang soldiers were afraid that the cannon was not powerful enough, and desperately filled the cannon chamber with gunpowder, and the gunpowder was too much, causing the chamber to explode.

If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing! Wang Yan screamed strangely, wielding his meteor hammer, and slashed into it like a gust of wind, and behind him, the frightened soldiers of the Changsheng Battalion roared and rushed in.

The garrison yamen is large enough, and there are hundreds of soldiers in it, and the individual combat strength of these soldiers is quite strong, although the number is absolutely inferior, and they are surrounded and beaten by the soldiers of the Changsheng battalion, they still cause a lot of casualties to Changsheng.

A lieutenant was strangled by Wang Yan with the chain of the meteor hammer, "Say, where is Xiang Ping?" Wang Yan roared angrily.

The lieutenant closed his eyes and said nothing. Wang Yan smiled, exerting force with both hands, the captain's eyes protruded, his tongue was long and spit out, and his neck was already strangled alive.

"Xiang Ping must still be here, search carefully for me, and don't let go of an inch." Wang Yan said, through the reaction of this captain, Wang Yan understood that these troops must be Wang Yan's pro-army.

Then several soldiers who were captured alive did not have the hard bones of the captain, and the facts explained were indeed consistent with Wang Yan's judgment, and the Changsheng battalion was greatly excited, at this time, there were only sporadic battles left in the entire garrison yamen, but Xiang Ping was still nowhere to be found.

Wang Yan sat on the chamber of a powerful cannon, these cannons were probably the guys Hu Dong said were ready to plot against the lord, but unfortunately they had not had time to move to the city, and they had already become his trophies.

"Dig three feet into the ground for me, and find out Xiang Ping!" Turning the meteor hammer, Wang Yan shouted. It's a big fish.

There was a burst of cheers in the backyard, "Found it, caught Xiang Ping!" ”

Hearing the cheers, Wang Yan was overjoyed and jumped off the ground, and there was a noise behind him, and dozens of soldiers dragged a few people sideways and vertically. What made Wang Yan strange was that there were still two women.

"General Wang, it's caught, it's caught!" A Xuanwei general shouted happily, and lifted up the gray heads of the two soldiers with their arms upside down, and a frightened face appeared in front of Wang Yan, who else could there be if it wasn't Xiang Ping?

"General Wang, do you know where this Hou Ye is hiding? It's easy for us to find! General Xuanwei said with a smile.

"Where did you find it?" Wang Yan asked.

"This noble lord hid in the stable, lying in the rotten grass full of horse manure, at first the big guy knew that such a big man would be so disrespectful, and he didn't pay attention to this place, if it weren't for his women, who probably couldn't stand the smell inside and made a sound, we really wouldn't be able to find it for a while."

"What a horse manure waiter!" Wang Yan laughed, "Come on, send this horse manure candidate outside the city and hand it over to the lord for disposal." ”

Looking at Xiang Ping, who was dragged away, Wang Yan shook his head, he has seen a lot of generals in Luoyang, whether it is Qiu Zhi, or Qu Yongjie, Zhou Tong and others, they are all quite admirable characters, that is, Zhang Aimin who surrendered to Dingzhou, that is also a character, this Xiang Ping, is so obscene, it is a little surprising.

Luoyang is really powerless.

"Let's go, let's go!" Wang Yan turned over and got on his horse, "Let's go clean up the enemy!" ”

In the northern city, Luoyang guard Kuang Yi was covered in blood, holding a saber in his hand, desperately resisting the impact of Jiang Kui's cavalry, at this time, the place they were guarding was limited to the long city wall near the city gate, outside, the Dingzhou army was riding a ladder and was attached to the ants, and in the city, Jiang Kui's cavalry was desperately assaulting.

Kuangyi's troops had retreated to the steps leading to the city wall, and under the city, the last hundreds of enemy troops had been forced into the city gate hole, and on the city, more Dingzhou soldiers had climbed the city wall.

Jiang Kui turned over and dismounted, holding the horse chopping knife with both hands, connecting and slashing several people, and met Kuang Yi.

"Come on!" Jiang Kui roared angrily, and the horse chopping knife in his hand went from bottom to top and went up.

Kuang Yi fought in the middle of the night, he was already exhausted at this time, and Jiang Kui, who was still able to stop the living dragon, was shocked by Jiang Kui's several slashes and his arms were sore, and he wanted to retreat, but his subordinates were still densely crowded behind him.

The whirlwind battalion rangers in the distance from time to time stretched their bows and arrows, aimed at the enemies in the city, and shot them down the city one by one, with a burst of cheers in the city gate, the heavy gate was pushed open, and the Dingzhou army outside poured in.

Seeing the Dingzhou army entering the city in a big way, Kuang Yi's last bit of spiritual pillar was also crushed, and he completely lost the will to resist, seeing Jiang Kui slashing head-on, he couldn't avoid it, and in the roar, he jumped down the city wall dozens of meters high, fell to the ground, bleeding from seven orifices, and died with a whimper.

With Kuang Yi's death, Beicheng's last resistance also vanished.

The sky is bright, a round of sunrise jumps from the horizon, the golden sun shines on the tall city wall of Luoyang, the original Dachu flag has been pulled out, thrown under the city, trampled under the feet, and a brand new Dingzhou military flag is raised on the city. The soldiers brandished their weapons, and their banners cheered and jumped above the walls.

"Lord, Luoyang has been broken by our army, most of the enemy troops in the city have been annihilated or captured, and the remnants of the enemy have now been pressed by us into the imperial city. Lu Dalin rode his horse excitedly, hugged his fist to Li Qing on the horse, and said loudly.

"Respectfully invite the lord into the city!"

"Respectfully invite the lord into the city!" Around Li Qing, all the generals bowed together and said loudly.

"Let's go, let's go into town!" Li Qing laughed, spurred his horse, faced the rising sun, and ran towards Luoyang City.

"Hooray, hooray, hooray!" Seeing Li Qing's banner running towards the city gate under the escort of his own soldiers, the Dingzhou army in the city cheered loudly.

In the Taiji Palace, the civil and military officials gathered here, from the beginning of the siege of the Dingzhou Army tomorrow night, all the civil and military officials gathered in the Taiji Palace, and heard the tsunami-like cheers of the mountains outside, and everyone looked at each other.

Tianqi was dressed in a military uniform, holding a war horse inlaid with gold and jade, sitting on the dragon chair with his eyes closed, and beside him, Zhaoqing was also holding a war knife, sitting next to his father.

A palace guard general rushed into the hall with a pale face, "Your Majesty, Nancheng Zhan won the merit and surrendered to the city, resulting in the destruction of Luoyang City, Xiang Ping Houye did not know whether he was alive or dead, General Kuang Yi died in battle, and General Guo Fengxian led tens of thousands of soldiers to retreat to the front of the imperial city. The Dingzhou Army has already entered Luoyang. ”

With a bang, the originally quiet hall suddenly became a pot of porridge.

Tianqi looked at the chaotic ministers above the hall with a sneer, suddenly stood up, and said loudly: "Retreat!" ”

This roar was so loud that everyone looked at Tianqi in surprise, and Tianqi waved his hand tiredly, "Da Chu, retreat, you guys go separately!" ”
