"Good intentions, good means!"

Mo Guohao also figured it out and laughed miserably.

What thief army has no intention of fighting, and the thief leader is busy claiming the emperor and dividing the feud, all of them are deceitful. It's ridiculous that the officers and soldiers didn't get suspicious, and stupidly led the army into a trap dug by others.

So far, this group of officers and soldiers is afraid that it will be difficult to escape, so they can only fight to the death!

"Kill out, kill out, maybe there's a road ahead!"

The thieves blocked only three sides, and the road to the center of the city appeared to be unimpeded. Mo Guohao and Ji Ning knew very well that since the thieves had carefully set a trap, it was impossible to leave such a conspicuous way to survive, and there must be even more terrible preparations ahead. That's why they weren't in a hurry to rush here. But now, with no other way to go, they can only fight to the death along the path left for them by the thieves.

Knowing that there is a trap in front of them, they can only break in.

"The cavalry brigade obeyed the order and rushed out with the general!"

Ji Ning relented and shouted to the remaining subordinates.

Because Chen Wu deliberately greeted him and shot as few horses as possible, the hundred-man cavalry brigade now had about eighty horsemen. Under the leadership of Ji Ning, a charging formation was hastily formed, and a charge was launched along Chengdong Avenue towards the center of Yicheng. Inspired by their will to die, their momentum was much more terrifying than the previous Huai'an Chamber of Commerce horse team, and even gave the rebels on the houses on both sides an unstoppable feeling.

This is a desperate charge of the officers and soldiers!

However, in the darkness a hundred paces ahead of them, torches were quickly lit, illuminating the way of the cavalry.

Rejection!

Two rows in a row before and after, blocking the rejection of the road ahead!

Behind the rejection of the horses was a brigade of infantry troops fully armed and arrayed to meet the enemy. In the face of the astonishing cavalry charge, these rebels not only did not panic, but one by one they were calm, even joking.

"Sure enough!"

Ji Ning knew that it was impossible for this group of thieves with amazing ability to be unprepared. If they want to break through such a rejection of horses and infantry arrays, the cavalry under his command is afraid that they will have to pay a huge price. However, there is no way out for the officers and troops to retreat. If you can break up this brigade of thieves here, maybe the official army can break out of the encirclement and find a way out.

"Kill the thief with Ben!"

He shouted with all his might, and the whip in his hand kept beating the horse, and rushed to the front with his saber.

The rest of the cavalry did not hesitate at all.

Everyone knows that the other three sides are already dead ends, and if you want to escape, you can only rush out from in front of you. Because of this, even if they knew that they would die nine times, they were still not afraid and were ready to fight to the death against the thief army.

Thirty paces away!

Fifteen steps away!

In the sound of the whirring wind, the cavalry approached the front of the rejected horse in the blink of an eye. Under the light of the fire, the faces of the rebel soldiers not far away were already clearly visible. Ji Ning pulled the reins high, ready to ride his horse and leap up. But at this moment, he only felt that his feet were suddenly empty, and the war horse neighed weakly, and fell into the pit dug in advance.

As he stepped through the camouflage of the support, a huge trench that stretched across the entire street appeared in front of the cavalry.

Ji Ning, who took the lead, was too unlucky, and there was just an upside-down sharp bamboo pole erected under the place where he fell. Under the action of gravity, the bamboo pole penetrated the war horse, pierced Ji Ning's thigh by the way, and pierced him with people and horses. Under the severe pain, Ji Ning couldn't help but let out a terrible scream. Master Rong, who followed closely, also plunged into it without being at all guarded. After a short, panicked cry, there was no more sound.

"Not good!"

"The thieves are treacherous, and they are hiding in the pit, stop it!"

"Master Ji!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, the cavalry behind shouted one after another, and at the same time tried to rein in their horses, hoping to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.

However, where is it so easy for the cavalry that has already sprinted to stop? Followed by Ji Ning's dozen riders, almost without exception, all of them were planted into the pit due to inertia. The middle row of cavalry also fell into confusion because of this, and even several horses collided together, and the entire cavalry team was immediately in chaos.

The rebels behind the rejection of the horse, when they saw the appearance of the official army wolf Bèi, laughed one after another, and some people cheered excitedly.

"It's over!"

In the face of such a wide trench, coupled with the rejection of horses behind the trench and the fierce rebel army, it was impossible for the officers and soldiers to rush out from this side. Dozens of cavalrymen, who barely stopped, turned their horses' heads in a daze and panic, and trotted around in circles, not knowing where to go.

"Trapped, rejected horses? The road ahead is also blocked? ”

After Mo Guohao, who reported a glimmer of hope for Ji Ning's charge, got the bad news, the last luck in his heart was also dispelled.

Jiang Hongwen, the captain of the First Brigade of the Official Army, was also frightened by the extremely bad situation. Listening to the screams one after another, his hands trembled so much that he could barely hold the knife, and kept urging: "Master Mo, you should quickly think of a way to save everyone!" ”

"Remembering me at this time?"

Looking at this guy who ignores himself with a background on weekdays, Mo Guohao snorted coldly, and suddenly felt a little relieved and even gloated in his heart. But he also knows that in the current situation, the officials and the army can be said to be in a desperate situation, and it is pointless to dwell on this anymore. The roads before and after and from east to west are all blocked, and there is no way to escape, and the only way to escape is to fight to the death with the thieves.

The stone wall built by the thieves to reconstruct the terrain was the only place that the official army could attack. Although there must be a heavy army behind the stone wall, and relying on the terrain similar to the city wall, it will suffer a big loss if they want to attack, but this is the only thing they can do. If you don't fight like this, you can only sit and wait to be killed, shot by the archers of the thief army, or trapped alive in such terrain.

When they came in, they did not carry food or supplies, but piled them up in the camp outside the city. It only takes two days to be trapped here, and even if the thief army does not attack, the official army will collapse because of the lack of water and food.

"Fight! Come with me, all the soldiers! ”

Although Mo Guohao didn't know the saying that the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, he also knew that there might be a chance to forcibly break through the stone wall that blocked the road and kill them from this "urn city"-like Jedi.

"Long live the Empire!"

Inspired by the courage of the wing commander, the remaining officers and soldiers were also released. Shouting in unison, he drew his sword and slashed at the nearest stone wall.

It was a street that connected to the other alleys, and on the surface there was nothing unusual, but about five meters into it, a stone wall that had no zài in the first place blocked the way out. Behind the wall, Chen Wu's Taiping camp rebels were already armed with spears and swords. Due to the excellent terrain construction, the officers and soldiers who wanted to rush in were almost besieged on the left and right sides of the streets and alleys and behind the stone walls.

The first three or four officers and soldiers to rush in were assassinated with spears in the blink of an eye.

Relying on the corpses of these colleagues and the bending support of other colleagues, the later officers and soldiers finally had a fulcrum, and stepped on it in an attempt to climb over the wall and kill it. However, the condescending rebels had the upper hand and easily pushed them back with their weapons. Often, four or five officers and soldiers died, and only one dead or wounded on the side of the rebels.

"Ignite!"

At this time, another order was issued.

The rebels on the roofs on both sides and behind the walls began to throw black oil in leather bags and smoke wrapped in straw paper into the crowded places where the officers and troops were concentrated. In addition, there is a batch of inconspicuous tribulus terrestris. Then, the archers of the infantry battalion switched to rockets, and a cluster of arrows was fired.

In some hidden corners, the rebels had already piled up dry firewood and charcoal, and with the ignition materials that were now thrown, the fire was out of control in a short period of time. Even the pungent smoke filled the air, which completely plunged these officers and soldiers who had made up their minds to death into chaos. There are burned ones rolling on the ground in agony to extinguish the fire; Some even coughed up tears and snot, covering their mouths and noses in pain and breathing; Others completely lost confidence and began to flee to corners where there were no rebels for the time being.

However, a large area of thistle terrestris on the ground pierced the soles of their feet one after another.

This thing is not much of a threat to a war horse with a horseshoe nailed, but it is very useful to ordinary officers and soldiers. Anyone who has a broken foot can only hold his foot and wail, and it is difficult to escape.
