Chapter 579: Breakthrough

Fanyang City, the originally tall and strong city wall, after two offensive and defensive battles that lasted nearly a year, although it still stands, the entire wall has become potholes.

Even if Xuanyuan Honglie recruited a lot of skilled craftsmen and repaired it day and night during the armistice with Li Yang, it could not completely make up for it.

In Li Yang's view, if the current city wall wants to be completely restored, the only way to rebuild it is to push it off, and looking at his appearance, I am afraid it will not last for a few months.

Of course, Xuanyuan Honglie in the city has no intention of holding on.

It's summer now, and even at night, it's very hot.

Originally, people should have been avoided in this kind of weather, but at the east, north and west gates of Fanyang City, a large number of soldiers gathered.

Probably because the gathering was too dense, and the sweltering heat, all the soldiers were panting slightly, and it was obvious that they had some difficulty breathing.

Fortunately, it was night, and it didn't burn and sweat like during the day.

Xuanyuan Honglie stood on a high place, silently looking at the soldiers in front of him.

He knew in his heart that whether he could escape safely and make a comeback depended only on tonight.

"Wenliang, the other doors, are they ready?"

"Yes, everything has been prepared, just waiting for the lord's order." Sima Wenliang stood behind Xuanyuan Honglie and bowed in reply.

In front of outsiders and soldiers, Sima Wenliang still said

'Lord' to call Xuanyuan Honglie.

"Okay, when the time comes, let's start it, so as not to have too many dreams at night."

"No!"

Sima Wenliang responded, then turned his head to a few heralds and ordered, and then several people scattered and left, obviously going to other city gates to deliver the message.

About half an hour passed before the east gate of Fanyang City suddenly opened, and the soldiers from the gate swarmed out.

Not only that, but on the city walls on both sides of the city gate, there were also ladders falling one after another, and then soldiers went down the ladders and dared to go outside the city quickly.

Under this operation, hundreds of thousands of troops, although they were discovered by Li Yangjun for the first time, rushed out tens of thousands of people, and even after the enemy was assembled, most of them had already run out, and then the two sides 'collided' so fiercely.

The part of the Xuanyuan Hong martyrs at the East Gate is completely like having a madness, they are completely letting go and fighting with Li Yang's army.

In just a few minutes of fighting, the number of casualties on both sides has been increasing rapidly.

At this time, Li Yang and Zhang Liang were also awakened!

Looking at the east gate where the sound of killing came, Li Yang's eyes were solemn.

"Report to the lord ~ The enemy army at the east gate is attacking fiercely, and our army's casualties have exceeded 10,000!"

"Report to the lord ~ The number of enemy troops at the east gate is still increasing!"

"Newspaper~"

The battle reports on the front line quickly reached Li Yang's ears.

Listening to these battle reports, Li Yang's brows furrowed even deeper, "The attack is so fierce, is it because you want to finish the battle?" ”

"What do you think of the ovary?" Li Yang turned his head and said to Zhang Liang beside him.

Zhang Liang pondered for a moment, and then said: "Looking at the enemy's momentum, it seems that the main force is going to rush out of the east gate to surround it, but it is not ruled out that the east gate is a bait. ”

Li Yang nodded solemnly, the forces in his hands were not particularly superior, if he couldn't guess the enemy's movements, I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to leave Xuanyuan Honglie behind.

Just when Li Yang was entangled, he suddenly heard shouts of killing from the north gate and the west gate.

"Quickly go and find out the situation of the enemy at the north and west gates."

The herald behind Li Yang, after hearing Li Yang's order, hurriedly agreed to leave, and it didn't take long for the situation of the two doors to be reported to Li Yang's ears.

"There are more than 200,000 Xuanyuan troops rushing out of the west gate, and it is still increasing, but there are only 100,000 people at the north gate, and there is no movement at the city gate?" Li Yang pondered, "The number of people at the West Gate and the East Gate is obviously higher than at the North Gate, are they planning to escape from these two gates?" ”

"All three gates are possible now, and now the enemy has not yet all left the city walls, but it is impossible to say."

Zhang Liang is right, judging from the current situation, the enemy's strength has only just shown more than half, and it is possible for the remaining enemy to attack from the south gate where he is located.

This is also the reason why Li Yang has not yet differentiated the South Gate.

"No, we can't wait any longer!" At the time of this conversation, the emergency battle reports from the front line were sent one after another, and Li Yang couldn't wait any longer, "Give me an order to storm the south gate immediately." ”

Seeing this, Zhang Liang raised his head and wanted to say something, but he still didn't say it after all.

With Li Yang's order, the army of the South Gate quickly approached the city wall.

The soldiers, who originally thought that they were going to fight a hard battle, did come to the city wall smoothly, and climbed the city wall without even encountering too many obstacles.

Seeing that it was so easy to attack the city wall, Li Yang was vigilant in his heart, and did not rush into the city, but sent hundreds of sentry agents to the front to investigate.

"Tell my lord, there is no ambush ahead, all the houses that can be seen, and there is no one inside."

Listening to the report of the sentry, Li Yang's heart calmed down a little, and just when he was about to give the order and lead the army forward, he saw Zhang Liang with a pensive face.

"What's the matter, ovary, doesn't it feel like there's something wrong there?" Li Yang's trust in Zhang Liang is still quite large, and seeing his look, he hurriedly asked.

"Big brother, wait a minute, I have a few questions for these people." After getting Li Yang's nod, Zhang Liang turned his head to a few sentinels who came back to report the news and asked, "Didn't anyone check the farmhouses, hotels, etc. you saw?" ”

The sentry was obviously a little confused by the question, but he still quickly replied: "Yes, my subordinates have probed many times, and there is no one in all the houses. ”

"Yesterday?" Zhang Liang's eyes widened, and he turned to Li Yang and said, "Big brother, immediately send someone to investigate the Xuanyuan Army in the west, whether the strategic method is the same as that in the east." ”

For Li Yang, who Zhang Liang trusted 100%, he hurriedly sent someone to investigate, and then asked.

"What did the ovary guess about?"

Zhang Liang nodded and said, "I'm afraid that Xuanyuan Honglie drove the hundred letters in the city to a gate yesterday, and then used the people as soldiers to confuse the public and deceive us. ”

Li Yang's eyes froze, he understood what Zhang Liang meant, and used the people as soldiers, so that he didn't know that that there was the main force, and then Xuanyuan Honglie took advantage of the chaos to escape.

"So it can only be the West Gate and the East Gate?" Li Yang looked in the east and west directions, "The sentinel has been probing for too long, so it's not weak, we will divide our troops......"

"No" Before Li Yang could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Liang.

"Since there is one gate where most of the people are people, then the other is the main force, and the number is probably not less than 600,000, and we rush over rashly, I am afraid that we will be ambushed."

Although Li Yang has more than one million soldiers again, but because he has to defend it in four gates, the strength of each city gate is about 300,000, if it is ambushed by twice the enemy army, even if it is not defeated, it will definitely be scattered.

Li Yang, who knew this, although he was anxious, could only wait for the sentry.

Soon the sentry sent back the news that the combat effectiveness of the Xuanyuan army in Ximen was very tolerant, except for the soldiers from the first array to the fifth array, the others basically saw the soldiers of Li Yangjun's army, and fled.

"At the East Gate!" After hearing this information, Li Yang and Zhang Liang said it in unison.

However, before Li Yang could give the order, he directly attacked the east gate and surrounded Xuanyuan Honglie.

The intelligence sentry at the east gate had already rushed over.

"Report to the lord ~ The enemy at the east gate is large, and there are nearly 10,000 cavalry charges, plus several generals besiege General Taishi, General Taishi has no time to take care of it, resulting in the enemy breaking through the defensive circle and escaping."
