"Report to the Legion Commander, a large amount of gold and silver has been found in the palace..."

"Report to the Commander, a large amount of grain has been found in the palace..."

"Report to the commander of the legion, no trace of Prince Ivan has been found..."

"Report to the Captain. A prisoner confessed that Prince Ivan had left the camp with 80,000 soldiers yesterday afternoon, and headed for the city of Great Rus. ”

Listening to the convergence one after another, Huang Zhong finally figured out the facts, that is, Prince Ivan was indeed not here, but fled first. But when he left, he was in a hurry, and he did not take all his belongings with him.

"Send scouts to find out the whereabouts of Prince Ivan, and then send people to inquire about the situation in Pahan City, and order the soldiers to camp on the spot, and at the same time open the granary to cook." Huang Zhong really wanted to raise troops to pursue Ivan now, or return to the reinforcement of Pahan City, but his soldiers were too tired, and they couldn't sleep for days and nights, even if they were iron men, they couldn't stand it, and if they didn't get a good rest, if they encountered the main army of Rus', then they would be really dangerous.

......

It was finally dawn.

A new round of siege began.

After Yesenin and General Pudding each sent 10,000 elite soldiers to attack the city, just a pillar of incense was not used, and they rushed to the city tower smoothly, pulled out the black dragon flag that belonged to the Celestial Empire, and replaced it with the banner of the Rus' Kingdom.

The two generals were a little unconvinced of such a simple attack on the city, they couldn't imagine that the Celestial Empire army, which had resisted so tenaciously yesterday, would withdraw so quickly, did they not know what it meant to lose the city of Pahan? That would mean that they would be the turtles in the urn, surrounded between the city of Pahan and the capital of the country, the city of Great Rus, and they would lose all foreign aid, waiting for nothing but to be destroyed or destroyed.

Although they were puzzled, but fortunately, the city was still captured, and then the Rus army began to enter the city, they opened the city gate from the inside, began to rush in, and also began to clean up the city, they wanted to see if there were still wounded in the Celestial Empire hiding in it, once they were found, they would face a very tragic end.

The Rus' army began to enter the city, and at the gate of the city, General Song Quan, who had long changed into the clothes of the Rus' people, was crowded in the crowd.

In the first battle in the morning, Song Quan did not participate, but quietly retreated with dozens of personal soldiers. It's not that he's afraid of death, but that there's something more important to do. That is to die as the final struggle.

There are only a thousand soldiers on the city tower, and with these, it is impossible to stop the attack of the Celestial Empire army, even so, Song Quan simply retreated, and brought all the explosives in the army with him, and he wanted to give the final blow to the Ross army by self-explosion.

In the crowd, he watched the Rus' army begin to enter the city, and at the same time saw some of the Celestial Empire soldiers who had been captured due to injuries being hung high above the city tower, blood dripping from the high piercing, falling to the ground and seeming to smash the horn.

In this way, General Yesenin wanted to tell his people what would happen to him as an enemy. At the same time, he also wants to warn those people who are wavering in their hearts not to become lackeys of the Celestial Empire, otherwise, the next director will not be much better.

This did have an effect, and many of the men among the Rus' people could be seen turning pale, apparently caused by fear. For such an effect, General Yesenin naturally laughed and was overjoyed.

"Do it!" Seeing his comrades-in-arms being hoisted high and suffering from personal insults, Song Quan couldn't wait any longer, he suddenly rushed out of the crowd after a loud shout, and then rushed towards the camp of the Rus' army with the ignited explosives strapped to his body.

At the same time as Song Quan made his move, there were also several sounds of commotion in the crowd, and some people were charging forward in the same way.

The sudden change made the Rus soldiers a little unable to react, but instinctively they prevented Song Quan from approaching with his own soldiers to protect their general.

The Rus soldiers took out their weapons to block them, making it impossible for Song Quan to approach Yesenin and the others as he wished. In desperation, seeing that the lead was about to burn out, he had to choose as many soldiers as possible to rush over.

"Boom!"

A loud sound of explosives rang out, and powerful waves of qi swept out, like a giant beast, opening the devouring jaws and bringing the nearby Rus soldiers into it. As a result, many ordinary Rus' people who were welcoming the army into the city were injured and fell to the ground.

The sound of explosions continued for a long time, and there were loud explosions in seven or eight places. But at the end of the matter, as Song Quan and his own soldiers took up the righteousness, everything in the city gate was quiet again, but the reappearance in front of everyone was indeed a scene full of corpses.

This explosion was enough to kill hundreds of Rus soldiers and wound countless people, and at the same time, hundreds of ordinary Rus people were also affected, causing a lot of casualties.

General Yesenin was still on his horse, because the explosion was too violent, he had already dismounted and hid under the protection of his own soldiers, at this moment everything disappeared, looking at the minced meat and corpses in front of the city gate, he immediately shouted angrily: "Search for me, search the whole city, but if there are people from the Celestial Empire, no matter who they are, they will be killed!" ”

General Yesenin was really angry, he entered the city by himself to declare the strength of the army, but in the end it came to such an end, and even his own life was almost threatened, which was enough to cause his morale-boosting effect to be in vain.

The explosion in front of the city gate did indeed have an effective effect on the Rus' army and their people.

The high momentum they had when they entered the city had also decreased, because they didn't know what resistance they had in the face of such a damaging explosive.

Although Song Quan did not hurt Ye Senin, his goal was still achieved, and he used his death to deter the confidence of the soldiers of the Rus army and the Rus people to resist the Celestial Empire army, and everything was worth it.

The city of Pahan returned to the hands of the Rus' state, and the 20,000 soldiers of the Celestial Empire were wiped out. But their resistance also brought more than double the casualties to the Rus' army, and more importantly, they stopped it here for two days, giving Commander Huang Zhong enough time to mediate.

Song Quan was killed in battle, the city of Pahan was recaptured, and after the scouts found out the news, it was transmitted back to the ears of the commander of Huang Zhong's army.

After Huang Zhong received the news, tears couldn't stop from the corners of his eyes, in his opinion, Song Quan's death was his own responsibility, because this person obeyed his military orders and died in battle, although in the end they did not stop the Rus' army for three days, but after all, they also did their best. After saying that Prince Ivan had already fled, it was useless to buy an extra day.

The command went down, and the army set out overnight and left here. Let all the soldiers bring plenty of food, and all the treasures buried on the spot. "Huang Zhong's sadness is only half a moment. Now that the city of Pahan has been captured, I am afraid that it will not be long before Yesenin and them will appear near the palace, with these cavalry of their own, it is difficult for them to be their opponents, and what they have to do now is to retreat first, and it is best to leave while it is dark. Fortunately, for more than a day, he and his cavalry had plenty of rest, and now he walked away overnight, and there was no problem with his physical strength.

Huang Zhong left the palace with the cavalry.

Because it was dark when he left, and the cavalry of the Celestial Empire had always been well-trained, so that even when he left, he didn't make much movement, and even if some people knew that he had left, they really didn't know where they went.

Until the evening of the next day, when Yesenin, who was traveling all the way, arrived here with a large army, he completely pounced. After learning that the Iron Cavalry of the Celestial Empire had left a day earlier, he hurriedly sent scouts to inquire about the news. For this Celestial Empire army, which almost threatened the safety of Prince Ivan, it was absolutely impossible for him to let it go.

......

Sandriel Bay City.

The gateway to the northwest of the city of Great Rus' is one of the important cities under the jurisdiction of the Grand Prince Anatoly, and it is also the most important gateway city in the northwest.

Just as entering the capital of Great Rus from the northeast, you need to go through Haylboran first, then reach Adaner, and then reach Pahan City, which can directly point to the city of Great Rus, if you want to enter from the northwest, you must first pass through the city of Nexus, pass through Beitki, and then pass through the city of Sanlil Bay to reach the capital of Great Rus.

In the past, the city of Sanlil Bay was extremely prosperous, in addition to the reason for their geographical advantage, the proximity to the country, and the important point is that there are very few mountains here, and most of them are plains, which is a special case for the entire Rus' country. Because of this, the Rus' country has cultivated a large number of fields here, and it has also become an important grain producing place for the country, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a granary.

It is precisely because of the importance of the city of Sanlil Bay that the great prince Anatoly has always buried heavy troops here, fearing that someone will covet it and rob it of all the resources here.

But not long ago, Beitji City was actually breached, which was the result of the joint attack of Zhao Yun and Dian Wei's iron cavalry.

Who said that cavalry could not attack a city, when a large amount of explosives were placed in front of the city gate, the moment there was a loud bang, there was nothing to stop the attack of the iron cavalry.

As soon as the city of Beitki was broken, it brought great pressure to the city of Sanlilbey, and the prince of Anatoly urgently transferred heavy troops, and sent Viktor, one of the five tiger generals of the Rus' state, to personally lead a million troops out of the city of Sanlilbey, intending to recapture the city of Beitki.

Victor is one of the Five Tiger Generals of the powerful Axiongfu era.
