Chapter 240: The Bloody Battle in the Lonely City

Rows and rows of arrows rained down from the rape flowers, and the outermost cavalry flipped on their backs under the sudden attack.

Chen Yinti waved his sword away from a sharp arrow that came over, looked at the density of the arrow rain, and already had a certain understanding in his heart. At the same time, he also secretly despised Li Guanqi in his heart: the terrain here is flat, although an ambush can cause a certain amount of chaos to himself, but his cavalry only needs a charge to crush the ambush.

Sure enough, because the density of the arrow rain was not very high, the cavalry units of the Shannan Army were not dispersed by this round of attacks, and only a very small number of people fell off their horses. Under the command of Chen Yinti, it didn't take long for it to form a charging formation, and it was divided into two ways to rush to the rape fields on both sides.

The neighing of the horses merged with the shouts of men, but there was no response in the whole battlefield, only their own shouts, and when the cavalry burst to the place where the arrows were fired, nothing was seen.

In their amazement, their horses suddenly did not listen to the command, and they were eating something on the ground. At this time, the Shannan army had been running for a long time, although the people were not sleepy, but the horses were a little tired, and they smelled the strange fragrance in the rape field, so they began to fight for food, and the originally complete formation was chaotic in a moment. Immediately afterwards, the warrior lying on the ground suddenly jumped out of the trench, shouting for killing.

Chen Yinti naturally didn't know that Li Guanqi ordered someone to cook beans in sesame oil and sprinkle them in this rape field, and the war horse galloped for such a long distance, and suddenly smelled the fragrance of this bean, where could he still hold it, and he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one and ate it.

At this time, the Shannan Army's surprise advantage had been wiped out, and in the chaos, they could only rely on the height of their horses and the length of their long weapons to deal with the enemy, while the opponents were divided into flexible squads, some were responsible for cutting the legs of horses with long knives, some were responsible for blocking their attacks with shields, and some were responsible for picking off the Shannan soldiers from their horses with spears.

In a moment. The originally neat formation of the Shannan Army was slaughtered into chaos.

"Don't mess around! No refund! Chen Yinti shouted loudly, but the cavalry guards attacked like a storm, so that his shouts were covered by a shout and scream, and even he could hardly hear the sound.

"Die!" A spear stab. After impaling a Cavalry Guard, Chen Yinti vented all his anger on the enemy, brandishing a spear to prevent the Cavalry Guards from approaching.

"Bang!" With a bang, in the midst of the chaos, Xie Chen received a shot from him, his arms were numb from the shock, and he hurriedly dodged backwards, avoiding his second shot.

But Chen Yinti swung his gun like lightning, and the third shot pierced Xie Chen's heart. Xie Chen desperately dodged, and seeing that he couldn't escape, a crystal clear whip rolled over and entangled Chen Yinti's spear.

Chen Yinti looked at the young man in front of him, an invisible pressure surged over him, and then looked around, his cavalry troops had collapsed, and most of them were killed by the Xiao cavalry guards. A few lucky ones are also fleeing in the wilderness, this battle. It seems to have been defeated.

"Li Guanqi! It's a man who comes out and fights me! Chen Yinti roared wildly, "With conspiracy and trickery, which kind of hero is counted?" ”

"Want to go it alone? I'm here for you! Nameless said with a sneer.

But before the nameless words fell, Li Guanqi's cold order came from behind him: "Release the arrow!" ”

Dozens of arrows rained down on Chen Yinti, and his spear was still entangled in the nameless dragon tendon whip, unable to block. Suddenly, even the people and horses were shot into hedgehogs.

After falling from the horse, Chen Yinti staggered to his feet with his gun, and streams of blood came out of his mouth: "What kind of hero are you?" ”

Li Guanqi looked at him and said coldly: "in the same room." Where is the hero? I had no choice but to take them to the battlefield, and it was my responsibility to do everything I could to reduce their casualties! Is mercy to the enemy a hero? I don't think so! ”

Chen Yinti struggled two more steps with difficulty, and finally fell to the ground, unable to get up.

At the cost of 100 casualties, Li Guanqi defeated the elite cavalry led by Chen Yinti, who was the most proficient in fighting in the Chen family, and his morale was greatly boosted. Even the common people in Yongchuan City began to open their doors and get in close contact with the army of this Son of Heaven.

And after Chen Yinjie learned that Chen Yinti was killed in battle, and less than 100 cavalry of 5,000 cavalry escaped, the feeling in his heart can be imagined. He was already full of fear of Li Guanqi, but now he was even more overwhelmed, so he had to send people to ask Chen Guangxi for reinforcements while moving slowly - he was afraid that Li Guanqi would ambush him again on the road.

At this time, in Yongchuan City, Li Guanqi stared at the map, and he was also worried: although he eliminated the cavalry vanguard of the Shannan Army at a very small cost, Chen Yinjie's main force was still there, and his number was still nine times that of himself. Although the combat power of the Xiao Cavalry Guard is excellent, it is still relatively difficult to defeat one against nine.

Although Chen Yinjie had slowed down the march as much as possible, the Shannan army still surrounded Yongchuan City at night, of course, Chen Yinjie did not give the order to attack the city immediately.

The next day, Chen Yinjie waited until noon and did not wait for the reinforcements sent by his father Chen Guangxi, and what he waited for was only a handwritten letter from his father, in which Chen Guangxi reprimanded him and asked him why he had to apply for reinforcements with 50,000 people against 5,000 people? At the same time, he was strictly ordered to take Yongchuan City within three days.

Chen Yinjie had no choice but to order the siege of the city. This buddy doesn't know any art of war at all, he surrounded the four gates, and he only attacked the west gate with one mind. This gave Li Guanqi a bit of a headache, because he couldn't transfer all the defenders to this gate just because the other party only played one door, what if he would hit other doors as soon as he was transferred?

I don't know if it was my father's reprimand that worked, or knowing that there were no long-range strike weapons such as trebuchets in Yongchuan City, Chen Yinjie actually went to the position two arrows away from the city wall to supervise the battle. Ordered 10,000 men to line up in five squares and attack in turns.

The war was brutal together. Chen Yinjie never thought of bringing siege equipment at all, and this time he completely relied on flesh and blood to attack. And Yongchuan City is not a dangerous pass, the city walls are desolate, and there is also a lack of equipment to defend the city, from the beginning, after a rain of arrows, the two sides fell into a white-knuckle battle.

The drums of war rained down and hit people's hearts heavily. The soldiers of the Shannan Army rushed to Yongchuan City with a ladder, and the cavalry guards at the head of the city shot arrows like a storm of arrows. But the disparity in numbers between the two sides was too great, and soon the ladder was on the battlements. (To be continued......)
