Chapter 292 Five more cannons roared and Xicheng was lost
It is said that this Xiong Fei returned to the camp tent of the Chinese army, lying on the marching bed exhausted, and before he could close his eyes, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside the camp.
The man opened the curtain and entered, bowed his head and clenched his fists to the Xiong Fei bed: "General! There is an emergency in Xicheng, please go over and decide! ”
Xiong Fei had to get up, dressed neatly, and followed the people to ride his horse in the direction of Xicheng, and Rong Zhong Qingyun also chased after him with his guards at this moment.
"General! It's almost five watches soon, and the gate of the city is open, I don't know if it's our internal response? The leader of the officers and soldiers who stayed behind pointed to the city gate that opened a thin slit, and turned to Xiong Feiyan, who was hurriedly riding his horse.
"Is there a salute lit in the city? Now when the enemy and us are fighting, we will not open the city gate for no reason, but the last time we opened the city gate, it was the Red Turban Army Grass Kou who came out, if we don't see the figure of General Dai Yu this time, we must not be in danger? Just stay here and wait, and don't fall for them again! Xiong Fei turned over and fell off his horse, looked at the hidden city gate and said.
"It seems that they didn't see the salute lit, maybe they forgot, or they forgot to bring it in a hurry, so let them stay put!" The leader of the officers and soldiers who stayed behind bent down to receive the order, turned around and waved his hands to his subordinates, and everyone fell on the ground and left.
A salute of cannons rushed into the sky, exploding in the darkness before dawn, and the night sky seemed even brighter, as if it was the last baptism of darkness.
"Look, General! The salute in this city is lit, it seems that there are exactly five shots, could it be the internal response we sent? The leader of the officers and soldiers who stayed behind pointed to the sky, turned his head to Xiong Fei and said.
"Without further ado, I will work for everyone, hurry up to meet the gate of this Xicheng, General Rongzhong Qingyun, you go back and gather all the horses, be sure to come over to support as soon as possible, and finally send someone to inform Tan Feitian and let them flank and cooperate, go ahead!" Xiong Fei turned on his horse and commanded the generals.
Suddenly, the sound of killing at the gate of the city shook the sky, and the remaining Dian army rushed over with their weapons, opened the false city gate, and fought with the red turban army inside the gate.
This Xiong Fei brandished his sword, commanding his subordinates at the gate of the city, and in less than a quarter of an hour, Rong Zhongqingyun came over with other soldiers and horses of the Dian army, and suddenly the sword light and sword shadow flickered, and there were dead corpses lying everywhere, and the blood stained the city and the outside of the city.
The candles were lit upstairs in this city, and Soybean was sleeping on the table, when he was awakened by a shout of killing, and immediately climbed up.
"What's going on out there? Why is it so noisy? Huang Dou pushed open the door and asked the Red Turban guard at the door.
"The general doesn't have to worry, the little one will go and investigate!" The leader of the guards at this gate bent down to receive the order, and hurried to the battlement mouth to watch.
At this moment, outside the city, there are fighting figures everywhere, Orion Black Mountain is directing the archers at the battlements of the city wall, shooting arrows at the officials and soldiers under the city wall, Hou Feng is in the city gate, and the blood on the sword keeps dripping down.
Seeing this, the leader of the guards was about to turn around and go back, when suddenly another shout of killing came, and then he turned back to look out towards the battlements, and saw Tan Feitian, the army of the West Road on the left, leading his troops to help, and the grass outside the city was full of dense crowds.
"General! The big thing is not good, this city gate is broken by the official army at this moment, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are pouring in, it is estimated that our 8,000 elite soldiers are simply unable to match, please leave here quickly, and return to the big boss Let's try to recapture this western city. The leader of the guard carried the soybeans and ran towards the wall.
At this moment, all the officers and troops have entered the city, and even the thoughtful Xiong Fei is also coming to the top of the city tower under the cover of the guards at this moment.
The Red Turban Army fought and retreated, and in this hour's battle, Xicheng fell into the hands of the official army, and Huang Dou was defeated with the remnants of the army, and went towards the gate of the inner city in embarrassment.
Outside the inner city gate, Shi Bao motioned to the Red Turban soldiers to check in at the city gate, and quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"Xiaodao has been waiting here for a long time, and I know that you should evacuate back to the inner city with your troops, so hurry up and come in first! Your little master is waiting for you on the city tower to go and restore your life! Shi Bao walked up to this soybean, patted him on the shoulder, pointed to the top of the city tower, and said.
"So you already knew that I was going to lose Xicheng? Why did you ask me to go to the town? Huang Dou looked up at the top of the city tower, and Yuquanzi stood in front of the window, stroking his beard and nodding and smiling.
"Hurry up! Uncle Xiao has been waiting for a long time, although you lost Xicheng this time, but you have made a great contribution, go up and receive the reward! Shi Bao watched the thousands of remnants retreat into the inner city, and waved his hand to signal the Red Turban soldiers to close the gate back.
At this moment, Tan Feitian came to the inner city with the army of the West Road, but wherever he passed along the way, it was like locusts crossing the border, as long as he could take it, he would never fall behind, so that the crying and shouting were endless, and the people were complaining!
This soybean came to the top of the city wall, and was about to turn around and go to the city tower, when someone stopped him under the flagpole of the battlement.
It turned out that this person was none other than the young master Ding Hong! Quickly took two steps forward and came to his side.
"Young Master! This is the first time I lost Xicheng and disappointed you, you can see how to punish me, right? I admit how you punish him. Huang Dou drooped his head and said with a grim face.
Ding Hong turned his head, looked at the soybeans behind him, and couldn't help laughing: "What's wrong with you?" Let you go to garrison Xicheng, it will be difficult for you, this is not the talent of commanding the three armies, it can't stop these tens of thousands of tigers and wolves at all, you lose the city that is only a matter of time, I thought it was a matter of half a day, you actually held on for a day and a night, it is really rare, you look at these opponents outside......"
Huang Dou took two steps forward to the battlement, looked at the dense army of the West Road below, forcibly entered the house to burn and loot, and suddenly the chickens flew and the dogs jumped, and from time to time there was a woman's cry for help.
"These officials and soldiers are so hateful, they don't even let go of the people, it's really too deceitful, do you want me to take the soldiers and horses of Xicheng out, drive this group of officials and thieves away, and save the people from suffering." The soybean was fierce at the moment, and the joints of his palms were clenched and clicked.
"Alright! If you go to teach this group of officers and soldiers a lesson, if necessary, just open your mouth, remember to drive them away, and don't chase them after them, otherwise you will lose the opportunity, and when the time comes, you will be controlled by others and led by their noses. Ding Hong patted Soybean's shoulder and said with great relief.
The inner city gate opened, and Huang Dou came out of the city first, leading the thousands of remnants of the defeated army to rush towards the army of the West Road led by Tan Feitian......
