Chapter 197: The Brave Win (1)

The Xiangyang Ya Army, which was deployed outside the barracks, was caught off guard and encountered an attack by the Iron and Blood Army.

The eight thousand Yajun sergeants were already a little angry, and letting them be stationed outside Xiangyang City was a decision made directly by Liu Ziheng from Jiedu, they could not object, they could only carry out the order, but they also knew that the iron-blooded army that was eyeing them did not know when they would launch a large-scale attack, so they were fully prepared, and once they encountered an attack, they would retreat in the direction of Xiangyang City.

The offensive began at ugly hour, and it was already midnight.

After a short period of panic, the prepared sergeants of the Xiangyang Tooth Army quickly organized a formation to resist the attack of the Iron and Blood Army, and at the same time, the large group of men and horses began to retreat in the direction of Xiangyang City.

The 8,000 men were divided into two parts, of which 5,000 retreated in the direction of the city of Xiangyang, and the other 3,000 occupied favorable terrain to resist the attack of the Iron Army.

The three thousand soldiers of the Iron Blood Army led by Zhu Wen did not participate in the attack, but the military uniforms they wore were the same as those of the sergeants of the Xiangyang Ya Army, and many damaged places could be seen, and their faces and bodies were not very clean.

The battle ahead was deafening, and Zhu Wen behaved very calmly.

The sound of horses' hooves gradually approached, and Zhu Wen still didn't move.

The torches gradually increased, and they all went in the direction of Xiangyang City.

After the army of the Xiangyang Tooth Army passed, Zhu Wen showed a sneering expression.

Soon, his order was given.

Three thousand soldiers of the Iron Blood Army followed behind the army and headed in the direction of the Tooth Army.

Such a big momentum naturally attracted the attention of the officers of the Tooth Army in front, and after these people caught up with the team, an officer of the Tooth Army came straight towards Zhu Wen with an angry face.

"You're in charge of fending off the Predators. Let the army enter the city smoothly, do you want to disobey the order? ”

"No, the Iron Blood Army is just pretending to attack, and it has been evacuated at this moment, and his subordinates have taken many sergeants to chase after the army, hoping to enter Xiangyang City."

The officer listened carefully to the movements around him, and the sound of fighting in the distance was indeed inaudible.

The officer's face was slightly red, and the iron-blooded army was just a feint, so he led all the sergeants to evacuate towards Xiangyang City. If such a thing is said, it will definitely be bad for him.

It was under the domination of this kind of thinking that the officers did not carefully examine the situation of the sergeants led by Zhu Wen.

"I know, what kind of feint is this, it is obviously a large-scale attack launched by the iron-blooded army, but fortunately, I have made sufficient preparations to ensure the smooth withdrawal of the army to Xiangyang City......"

"Yes, yes, the subordinates thought that the general's deployment was very correct. The sergeants repelled the attack of the Iron Blood. ”

The battle was over, the 3,000 Xiangyang Tooth Army was completely surrounded, lost the courage to resist, and most of the Tooth Army sergeants dropped their weapons and surrendered. Officers who were unwilling to surrender had long since been beheaded.

Huang Biao looked at the direction of Xiangyang City, there was no smile on his face, although he had successfully completed the first step of the task, but the later task was a really difficult task. I don't know if Zhu Wen successfully blended into the Yajun Brigade and whether he was able to enter the south gate of Xiangyang smoothly.

The army led by Gao Chibang soon made peace with Huang Biao. Neither of them spoke, the captured Xiangyang Tooth Army sergeant was quickly handed over, and more than 30,000 Iron Blood Army soldiers slowly walked in the direction of Xiangyang City, their actions could not be too fast, so as not to attract the attention of the front Tooth Army sergeant, but they could not be too slow, after all, the Iron Blood Army soldiers led by Zhu Wen were only three thousand, if the delay was too long, the sacrifice that needed to be paid was too great.

The sound of commotion had long attracted the attention of the sergeant of the Tooth Army stationed at the south gate.

The brigade came to the south gate, but the officers of the Tooth Army who were defending the city did not open the gate immediately.

A group of Sergeants of the Tooth Army was sent out of the city gate to observe the situation of the troops outside the city, which made the officers waiting outside even more angry, and he could not imagine the situation outside the south gate.

According to the arrangement and deployment, the 20,000 sergeants who retreated to the city must be deployed outside the city gate, and at least some of the sergeants need to be left on guard, so that when he leads the army to retreat to the city, he can also be well contacted, and he can't imagine that all the 20,000 sergeants have entered the city, and not a single sergeant outside can not be seen.

The officer was not polite, but opened his mouth with a scolding voice, which was so loud that even the sergeant guarding the city gate could hear it, and the sergeant also made a noise.

The officers guarding the city saw that the situation was not good, and knew that there was something wrong with what they were doing, and hurriedly asked the sergeants to lower the drawbridge, open the city gate, and let the sergeants enter the south gate.

Zhu Wen's face was expressionless, but his fingers gripped the reins tightly, and his knuckles turned white.

The critical moment has finally arrived, he has thought a lot, maybe there will be a lot of problems in the process, and he needs to do his best to deal with it, but none of this happened, then it can only explain one problem, that is, the fear of the sergeant of the Xiangyang Tooth Army occupies everything, thinking that only by entering the city can it be safe, and the rest of the things are not cared about at all, let alone resisting the attack of the Iron Army.

All this was due to the rapid action of the Iron Army, and most people would not have thought that the Iron Blood Army, which had just arrived in Xiangyang, did not rest at all, nor did it think about observing the surrounding terrain, and immediately launched an attack.

Zhu Wen was a little disdainful of Liu Ziheng, he was also a general of the Shence Army before, at least he should have made more secure and detailed deployments, but he dealt with the attack of the Iron and Blood Army according to the usual practice, in this case, how could it be possible not to fail.

When the army entered the city, it did seem panicked, crowded with each other, and many people were still scolding in their mouths, as if they entered the city a little later, they might encounter a catastrophe.

In fact, there were scouts who had already gone to the back to observe, and it was determined that there was no army following after the army, so they would open the city gate, and in the face of the crowded situation of the city gate, the officers on the city wall did not speak, and it was not easy to say anything.

Everything was expected by Li Rupei.

The three thousand sergeants led by Zhu Wen lagged behind and did not participate in the crowding.

After crossing the suspension bridge, the 3,000 men and horses led by Zhu Wen still attracted the attention of the sergeants on the city wall.

This is also because the discipline requirements of the officers and men of the Iron Blood Army are completely different, they will not be as noisy as the Sergeants of the Tooth Army, they are very calm in the face of any situation, they will always pay attention to the situation around them, and the most important point is that their temperament is completely different from that of the Sergeants of the Xiangyang Tooth Army.

The sergeant guarding the city gate noticed it first, and just as he was about to ask, Zhu Wen raised his knife and cut down the tooth sergeant guarding the city gate.

The sergeant beside Zhu Wen quickly drew his bow and arrows and shot at the city wall.

The screams appeared instantly, and the soldiers of the Tooth Army, who were crowded in the city gate, began to panic.

"The army of the Iron Blood Army is here, and those who surrender on their knees will not die......"

Zhu Wen shouted out this sentence with all his might, and the surrounding soldiers also chanted, and the battle began in an instant.

It was a chaotic battle, and the well-trained and prepared Iron Warriors quickly gained the upper hand, taking control of the city gate and the corridor, and unleashing a brutal massacre of the Tooth Army sergeants within the corridor.

The officer of the Tooth Army on the city wall noticed the anomaly, and after a short panic, he understood that something was wrong, and ordered the sergeants around him to beat the big drum, which was to inform the sergeants around the city gate that the south gate was in danger.

Zhu Wen took the lead and rushed into the city wall, he led hundreds of iron-blooded soldiers, killed a bloody road, and rushed towards the city wall, the city wall must be occupied, otherwise three thousand soldiers were suppressed around the city gate, and the Xiangyang Ya army attacked condescendingly, and the iron-blooded army would suffer heavy losses in a short time.

The sergeant of the Tooth Army, who had previously withdrawn to the city, had turned around and joined the ranks of the fighting.

The brutal fight began.

Zhu Wen had already rushed to the city wall, facing the officer of the Tooth Army, his face showed a cold expression, and he rushed towards the officer without the slightest hesitation.

The officer raised the steel knife in his hand and began to fight with Zhu Wen, but unfortunately he underestimated Zhu Wen's ability, and in just a few rounds, he was beheaded by Zhu Wen, the officer was killed, and the few tooth army sergeants on the city wall began to panic, almost lost the courage to resist, some fled under the city wall, and some knelt down and surrendered.

Zhu Wen showed his brutal nature, whether it was the escaped Ya Sergeant or the surrendered Ya Sergeant, all of them were killed, and no one was left, he wanted to ensure absolute control of the city wall.

The surrounding Tooth Army sergeants rushed in the direction of the south gate.

The soldiers of the Iron Army, who occupied the city gates and corridors, began to face tremendous pressure.

On the city wall, there were 500 iron-blooded soldiers led by Zhu Wen, and the rest of the soldiers were all killed around the city wall.

The Xiangyang Tooth Army has come to its senses and began to attack in an organized manner, they have already reconnoitred the situation outside the city, and there is no army for the time being, so they can rest assured that they can boldly exterminate this group of iron-blooded soldiers, in their opinion, this group of iron-blooded troops is also of a tentative nature, to see what the defense situation of the south gate is.

Fierce battles unfolded around the South Gate.

The sergeants of the Tooth Army charged towards the top of the city wall, but most of them were shot by bows and arrows, screaming and rolling down, most of the sergeants were still fighting around the corridor and the city gate, they tried their best to divide the many soldiers of the Iron Army, but unfortunately the area around the road and the city wall was not large, and they could not divide the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army in a short time.
