The fleeing rogue armies were about to despair, there were cavalry blocking the road in front, and there were infantry troops chasing in the rear, and as soon as they came into contact with the cavalry, they were defeated, and they were suddenly hit by the cavalry contingent that suddenly appeared, and the rogue armies could not care about anyone, and scattered one after another.

Xu Liang led more than 2,000 Liang troops to pursue for a while, and joined the cavalry, and the cavalry battalion commander Wanwen Mountain came over, arched his fist and said: "Lord Qiqi, the last general led the cavalry battalion to be one step late, so that the adults were frightened." ”

Xu Liang laughed and waved his hand again and again, "It's just the right time!" General Wan, this official ordered you to lead the cavalry battalion to pursue the thief army in the direction of Pingliang City, rush into the crowd, prevent them from converging, and tear these tens of thousands of lost dogs to pieces. The officer then arrived. ”

"Yes!" Wan Wenshan responded with a loud voice, turned his horse's head, and led more than 2,000 cavalry to roll up like a strong wind in the flat ground, rolling towards the fleeing thief army.

More than 2,000 cavalry of the Liang army suddenly crowded the official road, and rushed all the way to the direction of Pingliang City along the official road. Xu Liang led more than 2,000 Liang troops to act as the aftermath of the Liang army's cavalry battalion, regardless of the scattering and fled, running into the forests, valleys, and fields of small groups of thieves, all the way along the traces of the cavalry rushing to chase and kill, seeing the roadside limbs mutilated, no longer able to fight the thieves wounded and ignored the soldiers, seeing the thieves who were still able to stand, they went over with a knife and ended it easily.

Wan Wenshan led the cavalry battalion soldiers to chase all the way to kill, and when they reached the outskirts of Pingliang City, the army of thirty or forty thousand thieves was still able to flee into Pingliang City with all their tails. Throwing off their armor, they swarmed into the city gates.

The cavalry of the Liang army rushed back and forth under Pingliang City for a while, accidentally approached Pingliang City, and was shot down by a rain of arrows shot by the thief defenders on the city tower and put down a hundred and ten people, Wanwen Mountain saw that the city tower was well defended. He retreated and retaliated against the army of thieves outside the city.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Xu Liang led 2,000 Liang soldiers to Pingliang City, and saw the Liang cavalry wandering around the periphery of Pingliang City, chasing and killing the scattered thieves, and the Pingliang City Gate was closed in the direction of the city gate. The city was crowded with people, and he couldn't help jumping in anger, calling Wanwenshan and scolding: "Why don't you kill into the city?" ”

Wan Wenshan said: "My lord, the archers on the city tower are well defended, and the last general's men are all cavalry. If you rush in, I'm afraid you'll get caught in a bitter battle. ”

When Xu Liang heard this, he pulled his hair in annoyance, seeing that the gate of Pingliang City was closed, and the army did not bring the five general cannons, and wanted to use the 2,000 infantry army and 2,000 cavalry in his hand to capture Pingliang City, which was tantamount to a fool's dream. glaring hatefully at the closed city gate, he was about to order the Liang army to hunt down the scattered small group of thieves. Suddenly, I heard an urgent report behind me: "Report-, my lord, Zhenyuan is urgent!" ”

Xu Liang turned his head. Seeing that it was a spy from the Tsing Yi Guard's Detective Department, Pegasus came over, and saw Xu Liang turn over and dismount, he hurriedly said: "Report to your lordship, the fourth lady of the thieves led nearly 10,000 thieves to besiege Zhenyuan City!" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals of the Liang army were shocked. Xu Liang slapped his forehead, and said secretly, no wonder Fang Cai chased all the way and didn't see the fourth lady Li Ting's people. Originally, she took advantage of the emptiness of Zhenyuan's troops and went to Zhenyuan City.

Zhenyuan has always been the foundation of Xu Liang and Liang Jun. Liang Jun's ordnance, grain and grass. The families of the soldiers are basically placed in Zhenyuan City, and it doesn't matter if Pingliang City can be beaten or not, if Zhenyuan City is lost, it will be a big deal.

Xu Liang's face sank, and he was about to order the whole army to return to Zhenyuan quickly, when he suddenly heard Xing Zhongshan next to him pointing to the Pingliang City Gate and shouting in surprise: "Look, my lord, the city gate is open!"

Xu Liang hurriedly looked towards the Pingliang City Gate, only to see that the thief guards on the city tower were in a mess at the moment, fighting with a group of people who came out of nowhere, and the city gate had been opened. Inside the city gates, there seemed to be a fierce fight.

The situation is so strange that even Xu Liang has to wonder if the thieves are engaged in internal strife. However, no matter what, the opportunity to capture Pingliang City is just around the corner, and it is fleeting! Such a bargain, if Xu Liang didn't take advantage of it, he would be too sorry for those strong men who opened the city gates!

Xu Liang pointed towards the city: "Siege!" ”

Wanwenshan took the lead and rushed towards the half-open city gate, and behind him, the cavalry battalion soldiers roared to follow. Behind them, more than 2,000 Liang soldiers rushed over and rushed over.

The thief defenders on the city tower saw the Liang cavalry rushing to the city in a blink of an eye, and they were shocked and released a shower of arrows, however, the Liang cavalry brought a strong wind and went straight to the half-open city gate, and in the blink of an eye, they entered Pingliang City. After the cavalry, there were Liang soldiers shouting murderous footmen.

"The official army has entered the city!"

"Run!"

There was no need for the Liang army to shout too many slogans, and the defenders of the city saw that the general situation had passed, and they fled one after another, fleeing towards the city. There were originally more than 20,000 thieves' families living in the city, and since the first wave of thieves fled into the city, they already knew the news of the thieves' defeat in this battle, and even the life and death of the big leader Wang Zuogui were unknown.

The people were already panicking, but at this time, they could hear the rogue defenders who had fled from the city tower exclaiming, "The official army has entered the city!" "Run! Where will the thieves' families be shocked by the authenticity, one to ten, ten to hundred, hundreds to thousands...... The kung fu of a gang, the whole city knew that the official army was coming into the city. Suddenly, the families of the thieves in the city rushed to the streets, and fled towards the other three city gates, and for a time the city cried and screamed, trampled on each other, trampled to death, and was squeezed and injured countless people.

In this chaos in Pingliang City, even the thief army that was originally going to lead the army to block the official army was also blocked, and wanted to rush to the direction of the city gate to see what was going on, but was squeezed out of formation by the panicked flow of people.

At this time, the cavalry of the Liang army had just rushed to the main street of Pingliang City, and the Liang army had just cleaned up the thief defenders on the city tower, and there was no spare strength to pursue.

Xu Liang slapped the iron head and Luo Baiguan fiercely on the city tower, laughing, "Lao Tzu knows that there is nothing wrong with letting the two of you enter Pingliang City, look, this time you opened the city gate, but you have made a great contribution!" ”

Xu Liang was overjoyed, and Tietou and Luo Baiguan smiled shyly. Yes, Fang Cai led hundreds of people to seize the city gate from the city, and it was Tietou and Luo Baiguan who entered the city earlier who let the Liang army enter the city.

Tietou and Luo Baiguan originally spread the rumors of the fourth lady, evaded the wanton pursuit of the thieves, and have been latent in Pingliang City, in the middle of the night last night, the Tsing Yi Wei spies in the city detected the thieves in the city in a big way, the two felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly and secretly summoned all the manpower that could be used in Pingliang City, and waited to see what happened. When the first wave of rogue cavalry who had fled back to the city reported the news of the rout of the bandits, Tietou and Luo Baiguan knew that Xu Liang had launched an attack on Chongxin.

The two did not dare to act rashly, until more thieves fled back to the city, the cavalry of the Liang army appeared outside the city, and then the foot soldiers led by Xu Liang also rushed to the city, and the thieves and defenders at the head of the city were panicked and demoralized.

The recovery of Pingliang is here.

Xu Liang ordered Xing Zhongshan and Dai Feng to lead 1,000 Liang soldiers each, follow the cavalry of the Liang army into the depths of Pingliang City, seize the other three city gates as soon as possible, and lead the remaining 600 Liang troops to close the city gates, guard the city towers, and wait for the news that the other three city gates have been captured.

On the city tower, Xu Liang praised Tietou and Luo Baiguan again, and praised the two of them very excitedly.

Seeing Xu Liang's worried face, Tietou and Luo Baiguan couldn't help asking: "My lord, now that the gate of Pingliang has been broken, Pingliang is within reach, and the successful recovery of Pingliang is a great achievement, and adults should be happy." ”

Xu Liang looked in the direction of Zhenyuan City and sighed: "You don't know, even if Pingliang is recovered in this battle, our Liang army has suffered heavy casualties and great vitality, which can be said to have killed a thousand enemies and lost eight hundred, and both were defeated." Besides, at this moment, the fourth lady of the Li family army is leading tens of thousands of people to attack Zhenyuan City, and the Zhenyuan guards are empty, although I have invited General Li Ying, a guerrilla guerrilla, to lead the army to guard, but the fourth young lady Li Ting is no less witty than me, and there is a Duke of Wei behind him...... Ahem, it's hard to predict the outcome or defeat. Xu Liang almost said the name of Gonggong Wei, coughed twice in a row, and forked over.

When Tietou and Luo Baiguan heard this, their faces changed, and their excitement about opening the city gate and letting Liang Jun enter the city also subsided. Tietou scratched his head and said: "Young master, don't worry, Lord Huang of Zhenyuan Zhixian County has always been well-arranged, has rich experience in defending the city, and has the help of General Li Ying's men and horses...... That town is a city with high walls and thick walls, and thieves will not be so easy to attack. ”

"yes, yes." Luo Baiguan also hurriedly said.

Xu Liang nodded and sighed, "I can only think like this now." After that, looking at the scene of fire and chaos in the city, he beckoned to Luo Baiguan and said, "Xiao Luo, come here, I will tell you something." ”

Luo Baiguan poked his head when he heard this, Xu Liang whispered a few words in his ear, Luo Baiguan's face was happy when he heard it, his eyes lit up, hehe chuckled and nodded again and again, "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates are the best at doing this." ”

Xu Liang arranged for the iron head to deal with the defense of the city tower, found a chair to sit on, closed his eyes tiredly, and put his mind on Zhenyuan City again.

I don't know what's going on in Zhenyuan City now? Xu Liang thought about it, and comforted himself again, with an old and serious official like Huang Daozhou guarding the city, it should be no big problem. Immediately thinking of the fourth lady Li Ting and the dead old eunuch Wei Zhongxian behind her, I couldn't help but be unsure, with this old monster tossing in the Li family's army, anything strange could happen.

Actually, nothing strange happened. Fourth Miss Li Ting was facing Zhenyuan City, which Feng firmly controlled in the hands of Liang Jun at this moment, and she was so angry that she gritted her teeth and hated helplessly. (To be continued)
