Thick black smoke shrouded the entire city, and the layers under the city wall were piled up with the kind of things that Fan Yunhai couldn't understand, like the branches and leaves of some kind of plant, but there was some kind of sticky liquid on it, and it was pushed up by a cart to surround the entire north gate and the west gate, especially at the corner of the northwest city wall, which was clearly the focus of the opponent's attack. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Even if he found out the other party's attempt, Fan Yunhai was helpless, he didn't just make his debut, he knew what his advantage was, the other party put on this kind of trapped posture, there were obvious signs of a trap, his advantage was in the strong city, if he really wanted to break the idea of the other party's encirclement, he might have to take the huge risk of falling into the other party's hidden ambush, maybe the enemy was waiting for him to make such a decision, he was in pain but had no choice.

The bleak day began again with the rise of the day, when the enemy's rockets fell on the encirclement composed of those strange objects, they immediately burned, and the thick smoke quickly formed a huge smoke screen above the position outside the city, and then with the help of the wind to the top of the city wall, the wall was filled with a disgusting smell of smoke, and the prepared wet wipes and water did not have any effect on these thick smokes at all, in the chaos, the enemy's attacking team was moving arrow towers, catapults, Under the cover of the ballista, an attack wave was formed, and it pounced again, and the soldiers who lacked effective resistance to the Taiping Sect completely lost their confidence, in this situation that can be said to be purely one-sided, they themselves did not know when this situation was over, either they were dizzy and slaughtered, or they had to retreat into the city to start a street battle, these two roads did not seem to be a good choice, and they were put into the reserve again and again, and under the frantic fighting, the battle of the previous few days was finally tormented at a heavy price, but this time the enemy was obviously different, Fan Yunhai noticed that the attack density and frequency from the enemy's long-range attack weapons were significantly strongerThis can be seen from the sharp increase in the number of casualties on their side who still hold on to the city, and the news from the observation posts on the city head also proves that the enemy is launching a general attack.

What should I do? Should I retreat into the city and defend it or withdraw from the city? The news from the east seems that the enemy's encirclement in the east is much weaker, and it seems that many people have been transferred to the north and east battlefields. Fan Yunhai's mind was in chaos, and he couldn't make such a simple decision for a long time, and finally he decided to withdraw from the city, because he knew that once the enemy entered the city, there would be no hope of escape on his side, with strong strength, the enemy could control the whole city in a short time, and then destroy himself one by one, he didn't want to see this scene.

In fact, before the launch of the general offensive, Wu Feng has been repeatedly questioned by the generals participating in the war, although the poison gas attack in the past three days plus the conventional attack made the losses of the Taiping army defending the city extraordinary, but this does not mean that the Taiping army is vulnerable, from the Taiping army repeatedly used reserves to regain control of the city wall from their own troops who have occupied the city, it can be seen that the combat effectiveness of this army exceeds any Taiping army they have encountered before, and it is worthy of the elite name of the elite who participated in the Longdong offensive and defensive war, of course, this is also related to the fact that the Northwest Army did not do its best to fight, and it is enough to explain one point, that is, this mourning army must not be underestimated。

The defense in the east is too weak, there are only two wings, and before the general offensive is launched, an infantry wing is transferred to the north to participate in the battle, and only one cavalry wing is left to defend, which is simply ridiculous, almost all the generals are doubting that the commander's head seems to be hot, but they dare not question it openly, so they have to express their dissenting opinions tactfully, but they are all categorically rejected by Wufeng, and Wufeng's answer is only one sentence: "Believe in the strength of your own troops." ”

Longdong City was finally breached, when the bright Jinpeng flag fluttered high at the four gates of Longdong Mansion City, when the soldiers who captured the city cheered, when a cadre of imperial gentry and merchants came out from behind the door with shrunken heads and piled up smiles to welcome the new ruler, the Taiping army that broke out from the east gate was all ecstatic, the enemy's defense line was unexpectedly weak, and it was broken with one blow, although the entangled enemy mobile cavalry forced their side to abandon all the baggage and goods that they originally intended to take away, but finally successfully brought the remaining more than 20,000 soldiers out of the cage, Fan Yunhai also got a little relief and relaxation in his heart。 After careful reconnaissance and no ambush was found by the enemy, Fan Yunhai gritted his teeth and embarked on the road to Longquan Mansion with 20,000 remnants of soldiers.

The gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, this battle is too unjust, he has experienced a hundred battles, he has no way to deal with it, and he is completely in a passive situation, which is afraid that he will never forget the shame of his life, to wash away this shame, only with the blood of the enemy can do it, until finally Fan Yunhai can't understand why the always shrewd Li Wufeng would have such a big omission in the eastern defense, maybe he underestimated himself too much and overestimated his subordinates.

Inside the Sword Gate. In the gloomy weather, even the atmosphere became extremely tense, and you can see patrolling soldiers patrolling the streets, most of the shops are closed, and even if they are open, the doors are half-closed, and from time to time people poke their heads out of the cracks in the gate to check the movement, and the whole pass is solemn.

Coming out of Pan Ji Pharmacy, Boss Zhou's fat body was reflected in the winter sun, and his figure became much more slender, and he reluctantly glanced at the signboard of the pharmacy and settled down, it was time for a showdown, and his net worth and surname were all bet on today's life, either the head fell to the ground, or they were all happy, I don't know if I could convince the other party with this eloquence? While thinking about the words, I tried my best to calm down, but this was indeed a little difficult. didn't walk a few steps, just turned onto the main street, looking at the blue bird flag still fluttering at the entrance of the mansion, Boss Zhou's snort was already much heavier, and there were faint traces of sweat on the wings of his nose.

"Big brother, the situation has been verified, Dasanguan and Qitianguan have fallen three days ago, and now the armies of the two Lin Lang families have left Wumeng Mountain and are marching towards Hanzhong Mansion. The deep voice was full of frustration, and the man in armor glanced at the middle-aged man who was sitting on the main seat and was a little distracted, "Big brother, what do you think we should do now?"

"Alas, we have also found traces of the enemy outside the pass, it should be Li Wufeng's Northwest Army, the number is about one division, the current situation is changing three times a day, even the eldest brother I can't be sure. A little helpless Yang Tian sighed, the middle-aged man touched his forehead with his hand, and muttered: "This situation has become like this all of a sudden, there is no room for a circle, why did you say that the Dasanguan and Qitian Pass were broken by the Lin Lang family in a blink of an eye? Or at the same time, is this too strange?"

"Yes, although this Qitian Pass and Dasan Pass are not as good as our Sword Gate Pass, they can be regarded as a natural danger, how can the enemy break through it in one night? This is simply too strange, some people say that it was broken by the combination of the inside and the outside, but does this mean that there is an internal annihilation in our Taiping Army?"

"Hmph, I think that's right, otherwise those two levels can't be captured in one night, and I don't believe it if I am killed, if there is no internal response, and it is the internal response that has a certain amount of power to participate, it is impossible!" Yin Yin said, the middle-aged man's eyes flowed, "Don't talk about them, second, what do you say we should do?"

"Boss, I listen to you. The man in armor was probably used to listening to the other party's opinion, and replied without hesitation.

"Well, I think we also have to plan for ourselves, as soon as this Dasanguan and Qitian Pass fall, it is a matter of time before Hanzhong Mansion falls, although our Jianmen Pass is dangerous, but if it is blocked on both sides, we can only wait for death, and we have to make a decision. The middle-aged man touched his chin and had a groaning look on his face.

"Boss, are you saying that we are going to surrender to the army?" said the man in armor had a hesitant look on his face, "I'm afraid the brothers won't agree." ”

"Don't agree, if you don't agree, you can only wait for death, let's stay at this pass, enter, you can't enter, you can't retreat, you can't retreat, where do you say you can go?" The middle-aged man showed a cold smile on his face, "They want to die, I don't want to, I haven't enjoyed it enough, I've fought for most of my life, it's time for us to enjoy it, second, don't be half-hearted, listen to me, that's right, let's find a suitable buyer, close this sword gate, don't do this thing of selling your life, with what we have saved in the past two years, where can we not be a happy rich man?"

"What about the brothers?" said the man in armor after a long silence.

"Hmph, if you want to offer the pass, you have to find a big tree, now there is the Northwest Army outside the pass, and there are two Lin Lang families in the basin, see who pays the highest price." The middle-aged man had probably been planning this matter for a long time, and said unhurriedly: "We can negotiate with each other, if the brothers don't want to do it, they can leave freely, and if they are willing to do it, they will follow each other, as for the future, we can't guarantee it." ”

"Big brother, are you quitting?" said the man in armor had a pained look on his face.

"Well, I'm not doing it, second, I've thought about it carefully, which side we surrender to, I'm afraid it's rare to be reused, and I'm forty years old, and I don't want to fight hard. When I joined the Taiping Sect, I still had some passion, but now everything is indifferent, the Taiping Sect is not the master of great things, it has not yet been completed, and there is some disharmony in it. The middle-aged man rarely revealed his true feelings, and said with some emotion, "Second brother, I don't force you, you and I are brothers, if you want to go with me to be a rich man, you can go with me, if you don't want to, I will also consider a proper place for you." ”

There was another silence, and the man in armor finally spoke: "Then which family are you going to surrender, big brother?"

"Well, it's up to you, if you still want to lead troops to fight, I'm going to find the Northwest Army, I heard that Lord Jiang has surrendered there, it seems that Li Wufeng didn't leave them in trouble, which means that Li Wufeng is quite broad-minded, if you are willing to go with me and enjoy happiness, I plan to talk to the Lin family or the Lang family." The middle-aged man replied lightly, "Did you decide no?"

"Big brother, I'm ;;;;;;" The man in armor wanted to speak and stopped, and his embarrassment was overflowing.

"Okay, needless to say, I understand your mind, everyone has their own ambitions, you are still young, maybe your choice is right, I will arrange it. The middle-aged man immediately understood his brother's thoughts and interrupted him.
