When the child, the city gate of Liao County.

On the city wall, the defenders on duty gathered around the campfire, relying on the light of the fire to dispel the cold.

Everyone chatted sentence by sentence, so as not to be quiet and tired.

It was pitch black, and a small area near the gate could barely be seen by the light of the fire.

Just when everyone was drowsy, they suddenly heard someone in the city shouting "Open the door".

Hurried to the wall and looked down, and saw the Assassin who had been ordered to go out of the city alone returning, holding a round bag in his hand, which seemed to be a head.

The defenders hurried to report to the guards who were resting in the house.

When the guards came to the city wall, they couldn't help but sigh when they saw the assassin holding the head: "It is worthy of Saiyanluo, and the shot will be successful! Great! As soon as Ning Ze dies, the enemy army will be chaotic." What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and open the city gates and welcome people in!"

The soldiers were ordered to lower the drawbridge and open the gates.

At the moment when the city gate opened, the sound of horses' hooves began in the darkness.

Before the defenders could react, countless cavalry appeared from behind the "Saiyama", crossed the drawbridge at an astonishing speed, and quickly rushed to the city gate.

The defenders of the city gate panicked, only to find that it was an enemy attack, and it was too late to close it, and they were instantly scattered by the cavalry, and the two sides started a fierce battle at the city gate.

The cavalry in front opened the way and occupied the city gates. The rear floating army, heavy infantry, and crossbow soldiers came one after another, and Ning Ze was found in the army, followed by a large number of generals such as Du Wei, Wang Wei, Mi Yan, Xiang Rong, and Xiang Yan.

Ning Ze is still there, and the "Saiyan Luo" below is either fake, or has already taken refuge in the enemy.

The guards at the city gate panicked, and immediately beat gongs and drums to remind the army in the city that there was an enemy attack, and personally led the soldiers to resist.

It's just that the main forces of Ning Ze's army are there, and the city gate guards just stepped forward and were killed by the oncoming ghost-faced general Wang Wei in one fell swords.

The defenders of the city gate were caught off guard, and they were pressed by the Ning Ze army, which was constantly attacking the city, and had to retreat to the inner city to guard.

Ning Ze's army occupied the area around the city gate as quickly as possible, allowing large forces to enter the city one after another, launching a fierce attack on the inner city gate.

The signal of the enemy attack alerted the defenders in the city, and they quickly rushed to the inner city gate to assist.

It's just that in the face of the invulnerable Futu army and the heavy infantry armed to the teeth, the battle casualties are disproportionate, and the head-to-head confrontation cannot be resisted at all.

The weapons on this side did little damage to Ning Zejun's army, but the opponent's offensive was fierce, and coupled with the volleys of crossbowmen behind, the inner city gate was also crumbling.

In order to defend the city, the military camp continued to increase the inner city gate, trying to drive the enemy out of the city with all its might. However, once the city gate was breached, the garrison equipment such as sasswood, falling stones, and gold juice were all in the outer city, and it was difficult to repel Ning Ze's army in normal combat.

Chu Bai was sleeping soundly in the Taishou Mansion, and was awakened by the sudden sound of gongs and drums, and asked urgently what was going on.

His subordinates went out to investigate, and after a while, they returned in a panic: "Envoy, something is not good! Ning Ze broke through the city gate, and the army entered the city of Liao County, and was fighting fiercely at the inner city gate! The army in the city continued to reinforce, but it couldn't stop the Futu army and the heavy infantry from charging into battle!"

"What?!" Chu Bai's face changed drastically, "How did Ning Ze enter the city?

"The situation is urgent, so you can quickly put on your armor and go to the inner city gate to supervise the battle!" said the henchman.

Chu Bai hurriedly got out of bed and put on his clothes and armor, but said to his henchmen: "The Futu army is too strong, and it can still resist with the city gate, but now that it enters the city, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist!

"Envoy, do you want to let Ning Ze occupy Liao County?" The henchman said anxiously, "No! There are two coalition forces in the city, and the number of people is superior, so you may not lose!"

"What do you know?" Chu Bai hurriedly said, "The strength of the Futu army is very clear! Not to mention that Ning Ze can also use demon methods, and Saiyan Luo can't take him! If you stay in the city, the two armies will definitely be defeated if they fight head-on! Quickly notify the civil and military forces in the city, hurry up and follow me out of the north gate, and retreat to Qingshan County! In the face of Ning Ze, we must do a good job of defending the city, once he attacks the city, there is no chance of victory!"

I have to say that although Chu Bai was suspected of being frightened by Ning Ze, his judgment was still very correct.

Although the army at the inner city gate continued to reinforce, in the face of the Futu army, heavy infantry, and crossbowmen to cooperate in the battle, and Ning Ze personally commanded, with the assistance of Du Wei, Wang Wei, Mi Yan, Xiang Rong, Xiang Yan and other generals, seeing that the other party was advancing step by step, there was no way.

Chu Bai was dressed neatly, and his subordinates had already gathered important officials in the city and gathered in front of him.

These civil and military officials are also ready to set off at any time.

"Why don't you see Cheng Yuanjun?" Someone asked, finding that Cheng Wan and his subordinates were not here.

"Someone just saw Cheng Yuanjun and flee to the south gate, I'm afraid I'm going to flee back to Jiangzhou!"

"Don't worry about him!" Chu Bai said, "The situation is urgent, let's return to Qingshan County for the time being and make plans." ”

So the generals with cultural relics galloped to the north gate.

Cheng Wan was sleeping at the post station, holding his concubine in his arms, when he suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums, and his subordinates reported that Ning Ze had invaded the city, and he got up in a panic.

Because he didn't know what the situation was outside, and he didn't know whether Ning Ze had entered the city, Cheng Wan actually ordered the concubine to put on his own armor, and he wore the concubine's women's clothes and hurriedly gathered his subordinates.

The reason why he did this was because he was afraid of bumping into Ning Ze when he escaped. A head-to-head confrontation is certainly not an opponent, and in case of bad luck, you can rely on disguise to cover people's eyes. In the dark, enemy generals are generally identified by their armor, and their armor is particularly conspicuous in the army, so that concubines can mislead the enemy army.

Once the enemy is deceived, he will be able to seize the opportunity to escape.

As for the life or death of the concubine, he didn't care.

In order to survive to this point, Cheng Wan is also very exaggerated. Most people change clothes with their henchmen, and basically they don't wear women's clothes, after all, they will become a laughing stock.

He didn't care about this, after he came out, he heard that Chu Bai had gathered people to flee from the north gate, and said that he had run away, and he definitely couldn't defend it alone, and Liao Jun had no choice, so it was better to retreat from the south gate and return to Jiangzhou as soon as possible to make plans.

Chu Bai and Cheng Wan did not dare to lead their troops to fight Ning Ze to the death, the defense line of the inner city gate was finally broken, the defenders could not resist, and Ning Ze's army entered the city smoothly.

After entering the city, he soon got news that Chu Bai and Cheng Wan led people to escape from the north gate and the south gate respectively.

Ning Ze ordered Du Wei, Xiang Rong, and Xiang Yan to pursue Cheng Wan from the south gate, and he took Mi Yan and Wang Wei to the north gate to personally pursue Chu Bai.

The soldiers moved quickly in two directions, trying to capture the other before they could escape.

Chu Bai took a step faster, after all, there were defenders delaying at the inner city gate, and he escaped from the north gate with his subordinates, and quickly rushed towards Qingshan County.

Ning Zejun chased out of the city gate, divided his troops to occupy the north gate, and the cavalry chased wildly along the road.

In the night, hearing the hooves of the horses behind him, Chu Bai was so frightened that he didn't turn his head back to run for his life, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Ning Ze led the army to chase for more than forty miles and failed to catch up with Chu Bai, but he caught several officials and generals who stopped because their horses had stumbled, as well as thousands of soldiers in charge of the palace.

Although it was a pity, he still retreated with the prisoners, and there was no need to continue the pursuit.

On the other side, Dewey and others went out of the south gate to catch up with Cheng Wan, because the road was relatively rugged and difficult to walk, but they successfully caught up.

They were attracted by the concubine in Cheng Wan's armor at a glance, and they couldn't really see it in the night, and they really knew people with their armor, but they didn't know that the one in women's clothes was Cheng Wan himself.

Therefore, Dewey and the others pursued the concubine, giving Cheng Wan a chance to quickly flee from the other side.

After chasing, Xiang Rong caught up with the concubine, stopped her horse, and shouted: "Cheng Envoy Jun Mo is leaving, Master Hou please go over and talk about it!"

Dewey and Xiang Yan led troops to surround them, and the surrounding concubines panicked and hurriedly shouted: "I am Cheng Wan's concubine, don't hurt me!"

Hearing that it was a woman who spoke, Dewey and the Xiang brothers were shocked, and approached to check by the light of the torch, and sure enough, it was not Cheng Wan.

Dewey hurriedly asked, "Where is Cheng Wan now?"

The concubine pointed in the direction of their escape: "The one wearing the women's skirt is Cheng Wan!"

Hearing this, Dewey and the others were dumbfounded, after all, they couldn't imagine that Yizhou Assassin Shi would wear women's clothes in order to escape for his life.

ordered someone to watch the concubine, and immediately led the troops to chase after her.

Hearing that the pursuers in the rear were gradually approaching, Cheng Wan knew that the concubine would definitely be arrested if she was alone, and the other party must have learned of her disguise. Therefore, he hurriedly ordered the guards around him: "You quickly change clothes and horses with this officer, and lead the enemy away! As long as this official returns to Jiangzhou safely, you will be rich and prosperous for the rest of your family!"

The guards were also loyal, and immediately changed clothes with Cheng Wan, rode his war horsemen in two ways, and fled to the other side.

When Dewey and the others caught up, they only knew that the women's clothes were Cheng Wan, so they chased after them.

When he caught up with the other party, he found that it was not Cheng Wan, but his guard.

Cheng Wan himself wore the armor of a guard, shook off the pursuers under the cover of civil and military officials, and disappeared into the night.

Dewey and the three were chasing for a while, but they really couldn't catch up with Cheng Wan, so they could only reluctantly return to Liao County with the captive.

Chu Bai and Cheng Wan fled separately, and the army that remained behind the inner temple of Liao County was quickly defeated by Ning Ze's army, with dead and wounded, captives of prisoners, and surrender of surrender.

After a night of fierce fighting, the four city gates of Liao County were successfully occupied, and the entire city fell into the hands of Ning Ze.

Ning Ze and Dewey returned to the city, but neither side caught the enemy's main general, which was quite regrettable.

Chu Bai heard that Ning Zejun had entered the city and led people to escape, and the speed was as fast as a rabbit.

learned from Dewey that Cheng Wan actually escaped from the city pretending to be his concubine, successfully confusing the pursuers and leaving Ning Ze speechless. After that, he changed clothes with the guards and escaped from Dewey's pursuit, and his escape skills were first-class.

However, it can be seen from this point that both Chu Bai and Cheng Wan have a sense of fear for themselves, and they don't have the courage to confront each other head-on. Relatively speaking, it is also a good thing.

In the face of their own army, they are at most said to defend it, and once they break through the gates or find that the city is showing signs of being unfortunate, they will not hesitate to abandon the city and flee. This can be a great help for attacking enemy cities later.
