Xu Liang stood on top of the city tower, and his ears were filled with the sound of tearing and killing from both sides of the enemy. Although he couldn't see the thief leader Wang Zuogui far away, he was completely enlightened by the ruthlessness of this king leader.

Since the ugly time, thieves from all directions have poured towards the north gate tower like a tide, in a vain attempt to break through the defensive positions of the Liang army in one fell swoop. The broken north gate has been attacked again and again by several bandits, but although every time the thieves who rushed into the city gate were covered by the spear array of the Liang army in the city and the rain of arrows on the city tower, Xu Liang was still surprised by the tenacity of the thieves.

The two sides come and go, and when they fight from the time they are sons to the time of Yin, the thieves army will die on the ground and on the ground. The casualties of the Liang army were also increasing, and Dai Feng's troops and Xing Zhongshan's troops were sent to the upper and outer gates of the city to guard the north gate. Behind Xu Liang, there were no more reserve troops.

The thieves' drums became more and more intense, and the thieves' attacks became more and more intense. Facing the spear array inside the city gate, the bows and arrows on the city tower, the artillery, and the thieves showed their fearless and desperate spirit, and poured a wave and made up for it.

The eastern sky began to glow white.

The leader of the thieves, Wang Zuogui, was about to chop the Taishi chair under him. He spun around frantically, cursing angrily in his mouth, not knowing what he was cursing.

A thief general cautiously ran to ask for instructions: "Great chief, the brothers have been attacking for two hours in a row, and all the armies are exhausted, so I beg the great chief to give the order to let the brothers rest for a while before fighting." ”

Wang Zuogui suddenly jumped to his feet like a powder keg that had been accidentally ignited, and roared at the thief general: "Rest? Have you seen the officers and soldiers resting on the upper floor of the city opposite? There are more than 40,000 of us, and we can't beat a few thousand people on the other side! Do you still want to rest? ”

The general didn't dare to refute, and closed his eyes and let the spittle of the king's leader hit him in the face.

"Get out! Go back to attack! Wang Zuogui scolded.

The general didn't say a word, but ran back to his army in fright, and continued to shout at his soldiers to attack the city.

Wang Zuogui cursed endlessly on the side. Circle the edge in place.

The thieves rushed for a while, and then retreated. It's already getting dark.

Wang Zuogui turned his head to look in the direction of Huating County to the south, and scolded viciously: "That stinky bitch of Li Jiajun dares to disobey General Ben's orders!" He looked up again in the direction of the north gate of Chongxin. muttered: "I knew it would be like this, I should have brought a few cannons!" Then his face turned cold. With a snort, he pulled out his knife and shouted to the left and right: "Come on, attack the city with General Ben!" ”

Xu Liang's eyes were sour, and he had been paying attention to the battle situation nervously, and the Liang army in the city had been reduced to less than 3,000 men under the repeated attacks of the thieves.

Suddenly, my heart was tight again. He had already discovered that the attack of this group of thieves was extremely fierce, with drums and killings, and the army of thieves seemed to have suddenly beaten chicken blood, almost crazy. The pressure on the Liang army suddenly doubled, and the defensive position in the city gate had already shown signs of loosening, if it was attacked by such a ferocious attack of the thieves twice, the city gate would be broken.

Xu Liang's eyes wandered around the thief army formation for a while, and finally understood the source of the thief army's excitement. A hundred paces away in the open space. The military formation, which had been clubbed on the small dirt slope, was approaching the north gate in a fierce manner under the leadership of the majestic-looking yellow-robed general. The yellow-robed general passed by, and the rogue army shouted like a mountain.

This must be *OSS! Xu Liang can basically conclude that even if this Yellow Cannon General is not Wang Zuogui, at least he is a god! He patrolled left and right for a while, trying to find a sharpshooter to come out and release a cold arrow to kill the yellow-robed general there, but after a glance, there was no favorite person. couldn't help but sigh secretly, it would be nice if Liu Ge was still in the Liang army. With his miraculous bow and arrow archery, he will definitely be able to shoot the yellow-robed general under the horse with one arrow. It's a pity that Liu Ge is Huang Ziren's person. followed Huang Ziren to Xi'an Mansion.

Xu Liang sighed in disappointment, and instead turned his gaze to Sima Qiudao, who was hurriedly directing the soldiers of the artillery battalion to load ammunition, his mind moved, he ran over in a few steps, pulled Sima Qiudao, and pointed to the yellow-robed general who was gradually approaching in the distance and said: "Are you sure that you will kill that person to Lao Tzu with one shot?" ”

Sima Qiudao's face was still black, only two eyes were exposed, and they were white. He glanced at it for a while, shook his head, and said, "It's hard. My lord, you have also seen that this great general's cannon is very powerful, but the accuracy is extremely poor, and the city gate is biased, not to mention the person who can walk? ”

Xu Liang said viciously: "If you can't hit it, you have to bomb!" Aim all five cannons at him, and if you can't hit him, you'll have to scare him back! Maybe the net worth of our big guy depends on you! ”

"I ...... I'll try it. Sima Qiudao nodded with a bitter face, and ordered the soldiers to adjust the cannon head and aim it at the yellow-robed general. Sima Qiudao stood behind the butt of the general's cannon and stretched out his thumb twice, nodded secretly, and walked to the next general's cannon, and stretched out two more thumbs......

Xu Liang suddenly became anxious, when has this been, and he is still unhurriedly gesturing something! One stepped forward and snatched a torch from the hand of an artillery battalion soldier, stretched it behind the general's cannon, and lit it.

I only heard a bang, and the cannonball, with a burst of fire, fell into the formation of the thieves, killing more than a dozen people, but it was a little far away from the Yellow Artillery General, separated by a distance of about ten steps.

Although this cannon shot did not hit the yellow-robed general, it also startled him.

General Huang Cannon is naturally the leader of the thieves, Wang Zuogui, he was originally aggressive with the pro-military camp to go into battle in person, suddenly felt a shock on the ground, and then a loud noise, turned his head to look at the source of the sound, ten steps away, a cannonball smashed the ground out of a pit, and the people with missing arms and legs who fell next to him were lying wailing, rolling on the ground in pain.

Wang Zuogui looked up at the city tower again, and saw another cannon burning with a fuse, and the black muzzle was facing the direction where he was standing.

Although Wang Zuogui was fierce, he was even more desperate for his life, and when he saw the cannon, he was shocked to realize that he was the leader of 100,000 thieves, and it was too unwise to rush to the city to face the artillery fire directly!

Wang Tu hegemony is relatively far away, and it is still important to save his life at the moment!

Wang Zuogui only glanced at the muzzle of the cannon, didn't say a word, turned his head and pulled the two personal soldiers behind him in front of him, stopped, turned around and ran back and forth.

Only a boom was heard, and the ground shook again, and the cannonball fell seven or eight steps away in the direction of Wang Zuogui's left hand, and another circle of people fell to the ground, and the heat wave of the cannonball went straight to Wang Zuogui's face.

Wang Zuogui left even more anxiously. The captain of the pro-soldier beside him said in surprise: "General, you are going backwards, the city gate is over there......"

Wang Zuogui couldn't wait to stab to death the captain of this elm brain melon at this time, and scolded as he ran: Are you blind? Didn't you see that the artillery fire on the city tower was aimed at Lao Tzu?!

Just ran a few steps away, there was another rumbling sound, the captain of the pro-soldier only felt a buzzing in his ears, shook his head vigorously, and when he was clearer, he looked for Wang Zuogui's figure back and forth, left and right, and did not find it, and was in a hurry, he heard the pro-soldier next to him exclaim: "Oh no, the general has been hit by a cannonball!" ”

The captain of the personal soldiers followed the sound and looked at it, and he was very obedient, only to see that not far in front of his side, a cannonball killed a circle of people, and Wang Zuogui, the leader of the thieves in yellow robes and armor, was lying on all fours at this time, covered with blood, motionless.

The captain of the pro-soldier followed with a wail: "Oh no, the general has been hit by a cannonball!" Quick, save the general! ”

The accompanying soldiers screamed in surprise, and hurriedly carried Wang Zuogui, whose life and death were unknown, and walked outside in a panic.

Their shouts immediately spread the news of the cannonball among the king's leaders, and the thieves' armies in all directions turned their heads to check the situation, and the king's leader's personal army camp was huddled into a pile and retreated in panic. Suddenly, the will to fight was lost, and he followed Wang Zuogui's personal army camp in a panic and withdrew, but he couldn't even take care of the siege.

The upper floor of Chongxin City suddenly burst into an earth-shattering cheer. Dai Feng saw that the thieves from all walks of life besieging the city turned their guns and retreated one after another, so he arched his hand to Xu Liang and said: "My lord, now that the leader of the thieves has been shot, the thieves have lost all their spirit, if our army goes out of the city to pursue at this time, it will be able to win a big victory!" ”

Xu Liang saw that the thieves from all walks of life in the city were panicked like lost dogs, and the speed of withdrawal was faster than the other, he laughed loudly, and said to Xing Zhongshan and Dai Feng: "Leave two hundred soldiers to General Sima to defend the city, and the rest of the people will go out of the city with General Ben to chase the enemy!" ”

"Yes!" The Liang army will promise.

Therefore, Xu Liang took the lead, leading Xing Zhongshan and Dai Feng and more than 2,000 Liang soldiers who were still ready to fight, shouting all the way to chase out of the north gate of Chongxin, and slash and kill the last retreating thieves.

Seeing this, the thief general turned his horse's head and wanted to block the Liang army for a while, but as soon as he saw his face, he was cut off the horse by Xu Liang Tube's knife, and the rest of the thieves were frightened, and they ran away. This run scattered the other bandit armies that had been evacuated in an orderly manner, you must know that fear and anxiety are very easy to spread, and soon the thieves from all walks of life also panicked one after another, and before they could figure out what was going on, they fled with their lives, one by one, like a dead father and a dead mother, crying and screaming as they ran.

The rout of the thieves took shape so suddenly, and occasionally one or two of the thieves and generals wanted to stop the rout, and the sound was quickly drowned out in the flow of fleeing people.

Xu Liang led 2,000 Liang troops into the water like ducks, chasing the fleeing army of thieves all the way over.

Xu Liang looked up and saw a team of cavalry like a torrent, straight into the fleeing thief flow from one side, like an incomparably sharp guillotine, tearing the thief into two pieces!

After Xu Liang saw the appearance of the leading cavalry general, he shouted in surprise: "Brothers, the cavalry of our Liang army has arrived, rush with me!" (To be continued)
