In fact, this kind of thing is really unreliable, especially in the era of cold weapons, there are no tweeters, radios, headphones, etc., and the general's orders cannot be transmitted to the ears of every soldier, and at that time there was no radar, reconnaissance aircraft, scanners, and so on, as long as the situation on the battlefield is slightly complicated, the general will hedge against the soldiers in the front out of control, although the military band can be used to convey a certain limit of instructions, but a slightly more complex order can not be conveyed correctly.

After the battlefield became chaotic, the orders of the general could not be transmitted, and they relied on the judgment of the small officers such as the thousand households, the hundred households, and the ten commanders, as well as the soldiers themselves.

However, these petty officers and ordinary soldiers are in the middle of the battlefield, their vision is not broad, and their thinking is disturbed by many chaotic factors around them, and they can easily make wrong judgments.

This is the case now, for example...... Zhang Qianhu, who was standing in the city tower and saw the entire battlefield situation very clearly, knew that there were not many horse thieves blocked in the doorway, and the combat power was not high.

But...... He knew that Li Qianhu and Wang Qianhu, who had withdrawn from outside the city, also knew that these two Qianhu had seen from their point of view, and they only saw that the city gate was full of people...... They couldn't help but wonder, why didn't the reserve army kill these guys? They actually blocked the door...... Is it any wonder what is happening in the city?

Once they thought so, they did not dare to go into the city gate again, but did not even go up the drawbridge, divided into two troops, one left and one right, and ran out along the moat.

People's attitude is very clear, can't we go back to the city? Anyway, the cavalry of the thief army is blocked in the hole of the city gate, as long as these cavalry don't come to chase and kill us, we can escape...... This time can make Zhang Qianhu at the head of the city half angry, he fought to offend Shangguan and kick Ge Wen, and also wanted to take Li Qianhu and Wang Qianhu back to the city, but I didn't expect these two goods to see the city gate blocked, and immediately chose to run sideways, I knew that this was the case, wouldn't it be better to close the city gate earlier? Now that the city gate is full of thieves, it is not easy to close it if you want to, what should I do?

This Li Qianhu and Wang Qianhu ran left and right, and the five hundred elite soldiers of Huanglongshan who chased them very closely did not follow them, they followed Zhu Yuanzhang for many years, and have been educated by Zhu Yuanzhang in the overall situation, although now the soldiers are in chaos except for hearing the drums of the advance, they can't hear any orders, but they can't help but think, if Zhu Bugger gives the order, what will he let us do? I want to get him with my toes, so we can ignore the deserters and go straight to the city gates.

With a roar, the five hundred elite soldiers rushed onto the drawbridge and rushed straight into the city gate.

"Pull the drawbridge...... Shoot the arrows......" Zhang Qianhu at the head of the city shouted loudly.

In fact, there was no need for him to shout, and the guards at the head of the city also knew that this was a critical time, where they dared to slack off, bows and arrows shot downward, and fire bricks, fire pots, and stones were also smashed down together.

This is the first time that the soldiers of Huanglong Mountain really feel the bows and arrows and stones scattered from the top of the city, in the past, they were guarding the top of the mountain, and the officers and soldiers climbed up from below to be smashed, but this time they rushed over and were smashed down from above, and the position changed, and the feeling was completely different.

A stone the size of a human head is smashed down from the two-zhang high city wall, the sound is very terrifying, and it may not be able to block it with a shield, and if the stone is smashed on the shield, it will smash the soldier holding the shield and fall down with the shield, and the wrist will be flashed lightly, but the key will hurt the shoulder and elbow...... The fire pot is especially annoying, once it hits the body, it will immediately wrap a person in flames, and if it hits the ground, it will also form a fire, which will bring great psychological pressure to the advancing soldiers.

"Throw arrows at the head of the city...... Suppress them...... Don't let them smash stones as they want...... "The captain of the old team has been with Zhu Yuanzhang for four years, and he has a lot of combat experience...... The officer and soldier felt a pain in his chest and was startled, and the stone he was holding in his hand slipped down and fell unluckily on his instep, and he screamed and squatted down.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Huanglong Cottage were overjoyed, and some of the soldiers who did not hold spears but swords and shields simply put their swords and shields on their bodies, took out their bows and arrows, and shot them indiscriminately at the city.

As for those with spears in both hands, they continued to run wildly towards the city gate. The spears they wielded were more than three feet long, and they could not carry them on their backs or hang them on their waists, so they had to hold them in both hands, and if they wanted to release their arrows, they had to put them down...... The action of lowering the spear and shooting the arrow can only be used when the two armies are not in close contact in positional warfare. It is common to put away the bow after shooting an arrow, and then pick up a spear from the ground to set up the formation, but this is not possible when rushing forward.

But these spearmen believed in their comrades, after all, they were veterans of many years of cooperation, and they were relieved to hand over the enemy soldiers at the head of the city to the bows and arrows of their comrades to suppress, and they themselves threw off their strides and rushed towards the city gate.

The horse thieves in the city gate cave saw that the elite soldiers of Huanglong Cottage finally rushed closer, and they also cheered loudly, and the few horsemen blocking the city gate hurriedly got out of the way, and dozens of spearmen who ran fastest suddenly got into the city gate hole.

At this time, the battle in the cave of the city gate had reached a very difficult time, and the horse thieves could not cope with the spear formation with scimitars, and it was not their specialty to dismount and fight on foot, and in a short time several people were killed and a dozen others were wounded. Even Xue Hongqi's shoulder was injured, and his swinging of the knife slowed down a few beats.

Wang Er and Ying Shanhong were more seriously injured, both of them had already reached the point of exhaustion, and seeing that they were about to be pushed out of the city by the officers and soldiers, dozens of spearmen arrived and shouted in unison: "Second Brother Wang, we are here......"

"It's good to be here...... Come and help! Wang Er raised his last divine power, and the iron rod swept violently, and more than a dozen spearmen rushed behind him, and spears stabbed out from both sides of Wang Er's body.

The officers and soldiers had already had the upper hand in the battle, but at this time, they suddenly encountered the spearmen of the Huanglong Cottage to participate in the battle, and they were taken aback, and several spearmen opposite Wang Er could not react in time, and they had been stabbed over, and the formation of the soldiers fluctuated slightly.

"Hold on! Wait for the people behind to come! The spearmen shouted.

"Hey! Ha! ”

"Sister Xue Hongqi, horse thief brothers...... Go and rest...... Here we come ......" another dozen spearmen arrived.

At this time, almost all the five hundred elite soldiers crowded in front of the city gate, and the arrows rained down the city, but the side under the city obviously suffered much more, and from time to time someone was injured by arrows. However, the soldiers of Huanglong Cottage have now also figured out that they were only slightly injured by bows and arrows, and they were seriously injured when they were hit by stones and fire bricks, so their bows and arrows gave priority to the officers and soldiers who moved the stones, and as long as there were officers and soldiers who moved stones, they immediately shot arrows indiscriminately...... In this way, the casualties caused by officers and soldiers to the troops should be reduced as much as possible.

The cannons of the officers and men had already been loaded, but because of the angle of fire, it was impossible to fire at the bottom of the city wall, so they had to continue to aim at the 6,000 recruits who were still coming farther behind.

The cannon roared, Zhang Qianhu originally wanted to scare away the thieves piled up under the city with the roar of the cannon at close range, but he didn't know that these five hundred elite soldiers had fought with the Shenji Battalion, and the cannonballs falling next to them might be able to scare them, but the sound of the cannons alone was not enough to shake their minds.

The spear formation formed by the thieves in the cave of the city gate became thicker and thicker, and gradually, they had gained the upper hand, and began to push forward slowly, pressing the spear formation of the officers and soldiers back step by step.

Zhizhou Gewen has seen that the situation is not good, he is not very bold, at this time he was so frightened that he was about to break, ran to the tethered horse under the city wall, turned over and climbed a black horse, hit the horse and ran in the direction of his mansion, the city is about to break, he as Zhizhou has the rules of defending the land, it is not possible to escape from the city, and if he escapes, he will be beheaded by the emperor. Now he just wants to go home first, and arrange for his wife and children to pack up and walk.

Zhang Qianhu looked back, only to find that Ge Wen had disappeared from his shadow, and couldn't help but sigh: "Run, all the fucking run, all the battles that can be won are all fucking run......" I lowered my head and thought about it, why don't I run if others can run? Zhizhou has the responsibility of defending the territory and must be finished with the city, but I can retract back to my guard, as long as the guard is not lost, I will not be cut off by the emperor, at most I will be demoted and exiled because of poor fighting.

Thinking of this, he also waved his fart, turned over and jumped off the city wall, rode his horse, and walked towards the city gate on the other side.

As soon as these two ran, the situation was out of control, and the defenders on the city wall began to flee one after another, and as soon as they ran, they led the spear array blocked behind the city gate, and the soldiers who formed the spear array looked left and right, and their comrades ran away, and they were still stupid and fighting with the thieves and soldiers, isn't this a mental problem?

The spearmen roared too, threw down their spears, twisted and ran.

With a roar, the thieves in the city gate poured into the city...... "The city is broken!" ”

"The city is broken!"

"Hahaha, the city is broken!"

The five hundred elite soldiers who were the first to enter the city shouted loudly!

The six thousand recruits outside the city had been under the bombardment of the artillery, and had already shown a tendency to collapse, when they suddenly saw a sudden change in the battle situation ahead, and the rhythm of their collapse finally stepped on the brakes, these recruits looked forward in disbelief, and then also cheered: "Wow, have you won?" ”

"Win! The cannons are not firing! Hahaha! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing on the hillside outside the city, finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, he looked at the eroded battlefield, which was full of corpses, including officers and soldiers, and self-army......
