Chapter 334: Chase Pingliang

Liang cavalry was like a bamboo, and after the main force of the Li family's army took the opportunity to withdraw, leaving thousands of thieves and their families with no combat effectiveness at all. When Xu Liang arrived at the southern exit of the Shaanxi Valley in a carriage, the battle in the Shaanxi Valley was basically over.

Li Xinbei ran too fast, and the ability of Guo Tianxing and Shangtian Long to escape was not bad, and Liang Qi actually failed to catch up with them. Most of the blood stains on the left and right on the armor of Wanwen Mountain are the enemy's, and a small part is their own. However, he didn't care, after the cavalry set up a guard on the periphery, Wan Wenshan came to Xu Liang, turned over and dismounted, and arched his hand: "My lord, ahead is the jurisdiction of Gongchang Mansion." Without the permission of the Ministry of War, leading troops into other people's jurisdictions without authorization is tantamount to rebellion. ”

Out of the Shaanxi Valley, further south is Tongwei County in Gongchang Prefecture. Xu Liang sneered and said, "When did I, Liang Jun, do things, have I ever taken care of these stinky rules?" The army continued to move forward and catch up with Li Xinbei to fight again. ”

Wan Wenshan looked at the thousands of thieves' families who were waiting in line for the Liang soldiers to tie their hands and feet, and frowned: "The Li family army has never brought baggage and family members, without these things to drag down, the marching speed will be very fast, and the infantry will not be able to catch up." ”

Xu Liang groaned, nodded and said, "Then take the cavalry to chase." Then Xu Liang said to Luo Rucai, who was beside him: "The pioneer battalion stays to clean up the battlefield." ”

Tongwei is a small county town in Gongchang Prefecture, the city wall is not high, and there are not many defenders. After Li Jiajun escaped from Horseshoe Ridge, he went all the way south, and the intended target of attack was this small city.

The city tower of Tongwei was in sight, and Li Xinbei could even see the soldiers guarding the city walking around the city tower.

Li Xinbei looked back at the long marching procession behind him, and the road behind him stretched into the distance, deserted. There was no sign of any pursuers.

In order to get rid of the Liang army as much as possible, Li Xinbei abandoned the grain and grass. He abandoned the leaders of the thieves who had been following him since the incident, and abandoned thousands of thieves' families. Only took the elite of the Li family army with more than 6,000 descendants, and left in a panic.

Now the Li family army is more pure and simple than ever, except for a weapon in his hand, there may be a horse under the general's seat, the rest, nothing, no grain and grass, and even the pot for the gang leader to make rice was thrown in Horseshoe Ridge.

However, Li Xinbei had a happy smile on his face, although the fourth lady who was with Li Xinbei and Li Chaoqin, the head of the march, could not see any smile on their faces.

Li Xinbei naturally knew the reason why Fourth Miss and Li Chaoqin were unhappy, and he enlightened his granddaughter. said: "Ting'er, take a long-term view. If the grain and grass are gone, we can buy them again, and if we don't have soldiers and horses, we can recruit them again, as long as we can get rid of the pursuit of the Liang army, we can do our best. He poked out and pointed to Tongwei City in the distance, and chuckled, "As long as we capture this small city, our food and salary forces will be replenished." ”

The fourth lady looked dazed. He said in a low voice: "But I still don't think I should give up on those people in the Shaanxi Valley." ”

Li Xinbei said in a deep voice: "Those who do big things are not informal, and when they are decided, they will be broken!" For the sake of our plans, it is worth sacrificing some people. ”

The fourth lady lowered her head. Don't speak.

Li Xinbei said angrily: "Are you questioning General Ben?!" ”

"Ting'er doesn't dare!" The fourth lady said.

Li Xinbei's face softened slightly, and while he spoke, the team had already arrived outside Tongwei City. From a distance, the gates of Tongwei were closed. The Ming army defending the city on the tower of the city was nervously strengthening the defense, and the gong sounded on behalf of the enemy attack in Tongwei City. Spread far away to the outskirts of the city, Li Xinbei could even see the despair on the face of the captain guarding the city on the city tower.

Li Xinbei pointed to the guards on the city tower, who were less than 100 people, and laughed: "There are only 100 people, and they also want to guard the city gate!" He beckoned to a general of the Li family's army, and shouted in a deep voice: "Give you a thousand men and horses, and within a quarter of an hour, take Tongwei City!" ”

The general led his troops away, ordered 1,000 men and horses, and launched an attack on the Tongwei City Gate, which was guarded by less than 100 people.

Because there were too few people defending the city, the shouts and killings on the city tower seemed weak. Two civil officials in blue robes trembled as they climbed the tower, and one of them had just poked his head out of the battlements when he was shot in the eye by a stray arrow and fell back with a scream. The rain of arrows of the Li family's army under the city overwhelmed the defenders in the city. Dozens of people at the gate were carrying a thick head and pounding the gate over and over again, and every time they struck, there was a dull sound, bringing the gate to shake.

Li Xinbei became more and more proud, according to this situation, the gate of the small city in front of him was afraid that it would be broken if it hit it twice more! The fourth lady and Li Chaoqin couldn't help but smile when they saw that the battle was so smooth.

There were constantly Ming troops defending the city who fell from the top of the city tower, and some fell down the city. For every person killed on the tower, the city's guards weakened by a point. With a shout from under the city, the gate of Tongwei City was finally knocked open! The general of the Li family's army, wielding a broadsword, was the first to rush into the city of Tongwei, and behind him, hundreds of soldiers of the Li family's army poured into the city like a rising tide.

Li Xinbei laughed, sat on the back of the horse and waved his hand forward, shouting: "Sons, go into the city with General Ben!" There are wines in the city that cannot be drunk, women who cannot sleep, and gold and silver treasures that cannot be snatched! ”

"Kill!" The more than 5,000 Li family troops who were still outside the city and did not participate in the siege of the city let out a shout, and as Li Xinbei's words landed, everyone showed an excited look on their faces, and they mustered up their strength to rush forward.

At this moment, the sound of heavy horses' hooves sounded from behind Li Jiajun.

Li Xinbei looked back in amazement, only to see Liang Cai put on a charging formation, like a gust of wind, with the momentum of destroying the world and the earth, and quickly rushed towards his own military formation.

The heavy sound of horses' hooves caused many soldiers of the Li family army to look back, and then the screams rang out, and the Li family army was in a commotion.

Li Xinbei's face became extremely ugly, pale and pale. He screamed with a face full of incomprehension and monstrous hatred: "Array! Meet the enemy! ”

The soldiers nervously clenched the weapons in their hands, the generals cursed and raised the matching knives in their hands, the fourth lady and Li Chaoqin and others guarded Li Xinbei's side, nervously staring at the rapidly approaching Liang cavalry, and the spear held by the Liang cavalry reflected a little cold light.

The soldiers of the Li family's army, who were rushing into Tongwei City, also discovered the situation here, and the pace of running hesitated, and finally rushed into the city with the large army.

The archers of the Li family's army, who were suppressing the defenders of the Ming army on the city tower with the bows and arrows in their hands, left a small half to continue to suppress, and most of them hurriedly ran to the military formation outside the city, wanting to merge into the military formation and give a long-range blow to the rushing Liang cavalry.

In the blink of an eye, Liang Cai was within 100 steps of the Li family's army formation, and Liang Cai stretched his bow and arrows, loosening the strings.

Airplanes!

The soldiers of the Li family army couldn't help but raise their eyes to look at the rain of arrows flying rapidly in the air, but they could only watch helplessly, because all the archers in the Li family army were sent to suppress the Ming army defenders on the tower of Tongwei City, and there were no archers in the array!

A scream! Countless people fell to the ground and rolled and screamed, more or less inserted arrows into their bodies, ordinary arrows were shot out by the accelerated Liang Cai, and their impact increased more than doubled, and the lethality was amazing, and when they hit people, they almost penetrated the entire human body.

As soon as the screams started, Liang Qi rushed into the Li Jiajun military formation, like a pair of scissors, tearing a hole in the square Li Jiajun military formation, as the Liang army deepened, the mouth continued to expand to both sides, people turned on their backs, and flesh and blood flew sideways!

The wind was whistling in his ears, Xu Liang was half-lying on the horse's back, a long knife in his hand kept swinging forward, slashing the enemy in front of him, knocking him away, and the warm blood splashed on his face, on his body, Xu Liang didn't have time to wipe it off, his eyes were staring ahead, ready to kill the next enemy who stopped in front of him.

He didn't dare to stop, and he couldn't stop. On both sides were Liang Qi who was running fast, and if he took the reins to stop, not only would he not be able to come down, but he would also be crushed into meat by Liang Qi who was running fast behind him.

It was the first time for Xu Liang to experience the feeling of cavalry collectively rushing to kill, and the momentum of moving forward, God blocking and killing God, and Buddha blocking and killing Buddha amazed Xu Liang. At this time, any martial arts skills are redundant, and direct slashing is the best and most lethal. And the Dai's introductory knife technique practiced by Xu Liang is the most basic and simplest knife technique, which is handy for Xu Liang to use.

"Ho !!" Xu Liang couldn't help shouting. Dai Yingying, who was watching him closely, was nervous for a while, thinking that Xu Liang had been injured, so he stared at it for a while before relieving his heart, and continued to pay close attention to Xu Liang's surroundings to eliminate things that might hurt Xu Liang.

The opening in the middle of the Li family's army formation was getting bigger and bigger, and Li Xinbei sent the pro-soldier battalion around him to stop the impact momentum of Liang Cai, but except for adding a few corpses, Liang Cai's charging speed was not hindered at all.

Li Xinbei stared at Xu Liang, the Pingliang Tongzhi who shouted loudly in Liang Qizhong, clenched his sword, his eyes widened angrily, and he couldn't wait to rush up and split the sword in half. I shouted in my heart: how could he chase here?! How dare Liang Jun come out of Pingliang! (To be continued......)
