The night was dark, and the group went out of the west house, with more than 20 horses and four carriages, mainly carrying Tang Wan, Cai Yan, Tian Feng, Cai Yong and others who could not move quickly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Not far away is the north-south Zhangtai Street, Zhangtai Street to the north to the end of the kitchen city gate.

To Ji Ping's surprise, there were not too many people fleeing on Zhangtai Street, only a few carriages were hurrying away, and they were also preparing to flee Chang'an like them.

Hundreds of years of night bans have made people afraid to go out at night, for fear of being asked and arrested, and now even if there is chaos outside, they are hiding at home and dare not go out.

From here, it is about four or five miles away from the Kitchen City Gate, and not far to the east is the surging Liangzhou people, but at this time, they are all led by the two hundred tiger guards near the house.

Ji Ping and the others took the opportunity to hurry to the kitchen city gate.

Unexpectedly, less than half of the way, suddenly from the east came the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, which was as shocking as thunder in the dark night.

Ji Ping's color changed slightly, and he turned his head to look, but saw that in the darkness, countless torches were lit in the east and rushed towards this side like a long dragon.

It's cavalry! The Qianghu cavalry of Liangzhou!

If the Liangzhou cavalry didn't go to Weiyang Palace in the southwest, how could they rush over to this side?!

Ji Ping's complexion was very ugly, and then he immediately understood in his mind that these Qianghu cavalry were afraid that after the Liangzhou people broke the city gates, they would be sent out to each city gate, and they would open Chang'an City and control the twelve city gates.

Under the chaos and meticulous layout, the first thing that Ji Ping thought of was Jia Xu's old fox, and among the crazy Liangzhou people, I am afraid that he is the only one who has this cool head.

But at this time, he didn't have time to think about it at all, the Qianghu cavalry that came was very numerous, and it was extremely fast, and it was still more than two miles away from the kitchen city gate, but I was afraid that before they arrived at the city gate, the Qianghu cavalry would catch up.

In the dark night, I am most afraid that these Qianghu cavalry will shoot arrows indiscriminately.

At this time, the carriage Nakata Feng hurriedly said: "Lord, these Hu cavalry must be running to the gate of the kitchen city, it is difficult to dodge, when the guards extinguish the torches, secretly ambush, first break the cavalry, otherwise it is difficult to get rid of, I am afraid that I will fall into a bitter battle, and miss the time to go out of the city." ”

Ji Ping nodded, and immediately ordered Dian Wei and Geng Zhong to let the Tiger Guards and Ghost Guards extinguish their torches and prepare to ambush this cavalry.

In the darkness of the night, although the Qianghu cavalry lit torches, they could not see too far, but they themselves were like torches with clear goals.

The Tiger Guard and the Ghost Shadow Guard quickly dispersed on both sides of the road, while the protected Ji Ping, Tang Wan, Tian Feng and others retreated into the side alleys.

The torch dragon got closer and closer, and a voice shouted: "Hurry, hurry, break the kitchen city gate, and then rush to the horizontal gate, haha!" After tonight, Chang'an will return to Liangzhou! ”

Another voice said: "Sima, when the city gate is broken, I will wait for the horse to hurry up, maybe I can still rush to Weiyang Palace and win a great achievement." ”

The Sima said happily: "Breaking the city gate in front of you is a great achievement, tomorrow the sons and daughters will have a good time in this city, Chang'an City is full of money and beauties, hahaha!" ”

Bursts of unbridled laughter were heard.

In the darkness, they did not notice the ambush on both sides of the road, and only galloped and unknowingly entered the ambush section.

"Kill!"

With Dian Wei's earth-shattering shout, first the Ghost Shadow Guard's crossbow arrows shot over like a torrential rain.

"Ahh

"It's not good, there's an ambush...... Woo! ”

The unsuspecting Qianghu cavalry suffered heavy losses immediately under a wave of crossbow arrows, and in the darkness, a group of cavalry rushing to the front screamed and fell to a large area, and the cavalry behind could not catch up, and many were tripped and fell.

Immediately after, the two hundred tiger guards under the command of Dian Wei held double halberds and rushed forward like tigers, chopping vegetables and melons without mercy.

This Qianghu cavalry estimated that there were five or six hundred people, and more than 100 died when they were caught off guard, and there were more than 400 left, which quickly stabilized the chaos and showed fierce combat effectiveness, which was a very strong strength in Chang'an City.

The leading cavalry general shouted: "Kill! Kill all these cowards who can only sneak attack, and see who can stop my Liangzhou Iron Cavalry! ”

These cavalry were the most elite cavalry under Li Dao Guo Yan, who had been invincible in the Ruyang battlefield and the Yingchuan area, and had never looked down on the forbidden army with weak combat effectiveness.

In their eyes, the soldiers in Chang'an City can only defend for a few days by relying on the strength of the city, and as long as the city is broken, it is difficult for the soldiers in the city to stop it.

But they were wrong at this time, it was not the Chang'an guards who intercepted them, but the Hedong Tiger Guards and Ghost Shadow Guards, who were more elite than them.

The cavalry had no advantage in street fighting, not to mention that there were 200 Tiger Guards and 500 Ghost Shadow Guards participating in the ambush, which still had an advantage in numbers and tactics.

In today's Eastern Han Dynasty, when the soldiers and horses were in ruins, and the princes had not yet fully developed, the Tiger Guard not only had the top individual combat ability among the current arms, but also the cooperative combat ability between the Shiwu was extremely strong.

What's more, there are ghost guard crossbow arrows in the back, which are often one-hit kills. The cooperation between the Ghost Shadow Guard and the Tiger Guard, just like the sword, shield, and crossbow soldiers that Wen Chou put forward during the Battle of the Boundary Bridge, made Gongsun Zhan's tens of thousands of cavalry helpless and defeated.

At this time, it was only a tea cup, and the Qianghu cavalry lost nearly 100 people.

The leading Qianghu cavalry shouted angrily, these soldiers who lost were all the elite of the Qianghu cavalry, many of them were real Qiang, and there were no casualties after many battles, but they were inexplicably lost so much here.

"Torch out!" The leading cavalry general saw that the torches in their hands were like fireflies in the night, becoming a conspicuous target, and he wanted to extinguish the torches, hide in the darkness, and regain the upper hand.

But it was too late by this time, and many torches were already scattered on the ground, illuminating this battlefield.

"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! The leading cavalry general roared again, and at this time he did not appear, and with the death of the cavalry in front of him, he had unconsciously lost cover and appeared within the range of the crossbow arrows.

Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!

The crossbow arrows of the ghost shadow guard behind immediately suppressed the cavalry general, and the cavalry general screamed miserably, was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and immediately retreated under the cover of the war horse.

At the same time, those cavalry behind also began to fire arrows.

"Battle!"

Dian Wei roared, and the two green dragon halberd dances were impenetrable, blocking the feathered arrows that were shot, and the four tiger guards who cooperated with him immediately blocked in front of him.

Dian Wei took the opportunity to pull out several small halberds from his waist, and saw that the commander and the commander who had just commanded the cavalry threw them over, and the middle of them fell down without any hand, and the morale of the Qianghu cavalry was suddenly frustrated.

Dian Wei roared again, the double halberd was like a dragon, cutting and sweeping left and right, the blocker was invincible, and in a blink of an eye, he killed a bloody path and went straight into the enemy's middle army.

Driven by Dian Wei, the two hundred tiger guards were like tigers descending the mountain, unstoppable, and those with feathered arrows in their bodies pulled themselves out and continued to fight, which made the Qianghu cavalry on the opposite side tremble. (To be continued.) )8
