Chapter Twenty-Six: The Burning of the Urn City

On the third day after the end of the battle, the cavalry of the Red Khanate withdrew from the southern and eastern cities. In fact, even if they withdraw, Zhu Qi will not withdraw the army from the land, you must know that the speed of the cavalry is very fast, and killing Wang Nancheng from the north city is just a cup of tea. Once the infantry went out of the city to meet the battle, they were simply the target of slaughter without good equipment.

When there was still a day before the reinforcements arrived, the cavalry of the Red Fang Khanate quietly approached the city at night, and at this time, Ziyang's army was still asleep, and only a few sentries were watching.

It was clever that Zhu Qi had secretly installed an alarm device in front of the city in advance, and the cavalry of the Red Tooth Khanate did not know about it.

For a while, the alarm bell rang, and Ziyang and other sergeants woke up from their sleep and hurriedly responded to the battle. Although there was an alarm bell, the enemy army still carried the ladder to the front of the city with relative ease.

With the Xuantie bow and crossbow arrows in the Ziyang army, the combat power of the crossbowmen increased greatly, and for a while, the crossbow clouds and arrows rained down and the wood and rolling stones were all powerful, and the first wave of the enemy's sneak attack was repulsed.

The Ziyang Army recovered from its original disadvantage, but the enemy attacks became fiercer and fiercer. I saw thousands of red-blooded heavy cavalry holding hooks and claws in their hands, throwing them on the city wall, forming a hook net, tightly grasping the city wall, and pulling together, a city wall collapsed, and a 100-meter-wide gap was exposed.

A gap of 100 meters, the infantry was difficult to resist, the soldiers in the urn city fought and retreated, and soon nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses died in the iron cavalry, and nearly 300,000 cavalry of the Red Tooth Khanate soon rushed into the urn city.

Due to the night battle, the cavalry did not find that there was a city wall in front of them, thinking that they had entered the city, and excitedly and desperately drilled into the urn city.

They never dreamed that when they began to attack the city, Zhu Qi had already ordered the soldiers to sprinkle 10 million stones of grain and grass with sulfur and nitrate and other flammable materials.

The cavalrymen thought they had found the granary, and they were even more excited, not knowing that they were going to die without a place to bury.

Zhu Qi ordered people to first ignite the grain and grass near the gap, and suddenly the fire rain fell from the sky, and the flames rose to the sky, and the poor 200,000 black armored heavy cavalry and other 100,000 heavy cavalry were buried in the sea of fire, and the cavalry outside the city were dumbfounded, they understood that the general trend had gone.

Seeing that things were not good, he quickly ordered the troops to retreat.

Lead 200,000 remnants of the army to retreat towards the Iron Gate Pass.

Ziyang ordered an all-out pursuit, especially Hua Hong's 200,000 cavalry, which took the lead in pursuit.

The 100,000 elite cavalry in Hua Hong's 200,000 cavalry, although the combat power cannot be compared with the red-blooded heavy cavalry, it is not inferior to the combat power of the black-armored heavy cavalry.

As soon as he went out of the city to pursue Baili, he encountered 50,000 red-blooded heavy cavalry who broke the back road, and in less than an hour, Hua Hong's ordinary cavalry suffered eighty percent casualties, and the total number of cavalry was sharply reduced to 100,000.

Just now, Yang Xing, He Yu and Zhu Qi led 600,000 infantry to chase over, surrounded the 50,000 exhausted red-blooded heavy cavalry, and the battle lasted nearly an hour, completely annihilating the 50,000 red-blooded heavy cavalry.

That Hua Hong couldn't help but say, and hurriedly led more than 100,000 elite cavalry to chase and kill.

Hua Hong thought that his cavalry would have no problem chasing down the remaining fleeing soldiers.

The 300,000 sailors of the Sima War learned of the defeat of the Chiya Khanate for the first time, so they immediately landed ashore from the Tiemen Pass Water Village, and prepared to block the defeated army with the remnants of the city, but he didn't expect that there were 50,000 red-blooded heavy cavalry in ambush here. If you want him to know, killing him will not let these 300,000 sailors go ashore.
