Chapter 6 Breaking Nanyang (4)
It is inevitable that there will be negligence and accidents in the battle between the two armies, and the desperate resistance of the Cao army finally opened a way out for them, a small part of the Cao army rushed through the encirclement of the Jiangdong army, did not flee immediately, but rushed to Murong Ping's side to try to take the lead, Huang Xu's Black Eagle Guard was even more excited, the original task was to protect Huang Xu, and he was still complaining that he had no chance to go into battle to kill the enemy, but unexpectedly, these people took the initiative to rush up.
After some fighting, there was not much left of the Cao army that rushed out, and Murong Ping looked at the soldiers outside the encirclement and shouted: "Hurry up, go back to the city and call for reinforcements." β
What kind of person is Huang Xu? In the process of fighting with him, he can still let the opponent have something to say, and the Black Eagle Guards around him are all super soldiers with strong styles, how can they not even clean up a few Cao Jun, and there will be fish that slip through the net? What's even more strange is that the Black Eagle Guard beside Huang Xu did not attack Murong Ping.
At this time, it was already dark, where did Murong Ping still have time to think about this, and after letting go of the small group of Cao Army, the Jiangdong Army immediately tightened the encirclement. No one escaped.
What everyone didn't notice was that Lu Meng had already rushed out of the battle circle at this time and walked towards the hillside outside the grove, and in a few moments, a group of Cao troops rushed out of the mountain forest, following the Cao army that had just fled and fled towards Nanyang City.
It has been three hours since Huang Xu went to Nanyang City, and Huang Zhong and the others are still methodically leading the troops to hide outside Nanyang City. His eyes remained motionless and stared at the Nanyang City Gate not far away.
Just after Huang Zhong and the others blinked, a large number of Cao troops in tattered clothes and abandoned armor burst out of the woods in the distance, with a lot of numbers, and it seemed that there were thousands of troops. Nearly 200 of them rushed out of the encirclement in the woods, and another group of 800 troops came out of the forest. At this time, it was already round, and it was rushing towards Nanyang City.
Huang Zhong and the others, who had been waiting for a long time, were overjoyed when they saw this scene, only to see that many of the defeated soldiers had already fallen when they dragged their way to the outside of Nanyang City. "You must be tired, right?"
"Open the gates. General Murong was tricked and was besieged by the Jiangdong Army in the woods outside the city. β
A person who looked like a military commander in the city tower shouted at the defenders above the city tower, while Lu Meng was calmly observing the subtle changes in Nanyang City.
"Open the gates." Hearing that General Murong was besieged, Cao Jun upstairs didn't say much, and it seemed that he also knew the Wu Chang downstairs, so it was not exposed.
The person who replied seemed to be a general, and after hurriing downstairs, he opened the city gate and grabbed the hand of the captain: "Brother, are you okay?" β
"I'm fine, it's just that General Murong is besieged in the grove, you quickly take people and horses to rescue him."
"You rest first, and I'll bring someone over right away." When the man had finished speaking, he turned and mounted his horse and rushed into the city. I guess I went to gather people.
One step, two steps...... It wasn't until more than half of the troops led by Lu Meng entered Nanyang City that they suddenly attacked, Lu Meng's Fang Tian painting halberd belonged to a long weapon, and it was not too obvious among the spearmen of this captain. I saw it swing its halberd and stab out.
With a scream, the commander in front of him named Kai Cheng fell down.
Before the rest of the Cao army could react, the Jiangdong army had already begun to kill. The city gate looked crowded, and the Cao army defending the city was all pikemen. The Jiangdong Army was different, and after the green fierce belt attacked together, they threw away the weapons in their hands, pulled out the matching knives on their waists and began to fight.
In such a crowded situation, the advantages of spears and knives are immediately apparent. Huang Zhong's troops, who had been in ambush for several hours in the woods not far away, saw that the battle under the gate of Nanyang City had begun. shouted: "Kill ......" The voice dragged on for a long time, but it was as piercing as a bell. Taking the lead, he rode his horse out of the crowd and rushed towards Nanyang City.
There was a panic in Nanyang City, and the general who went to wither the soldiers and horses also came back soon, seeing that the Jiangdong Army had actually mixed into the crowd and rushed in, and the large army of the Jiangdong Army in the distance was killing this side. For a while, I also panicked.
As far as the eye could see, there was chaos at the city gates, and his brother was gone. At this time, although he was taken aback by the Jiangdong Army's attack on the city, he still knew the importance clearly. He didn't care about looking for his brother, so he immediately rushed to the city tower and organized archers to block the Jiangdong army that was rushing towards Nanyang.
The archers above the city tower are also busy, there is no time to find a target, one hand with a bow, the other hand is constantly repeating a few movements, taking arrows, shooting with a bow, a burst of blind shooting, did not cause too much trouble to the Jiangdong army that rushed outside the city, on the contrary, when Lu Meng was in trouble, a small force under the Jiangdong army of about 300 people, immediately rushed to the city tower, obviously to the archers above the city tower.
Before they could organize a second wave of arrows to shoot, this group of Jiangdong troops had already killed a small number of Cao troops on the stairs and rushed up. The battle with the archers began, and when the Jiangdong army was not close, maybe this group of Cao troops could still block it for a while, if it was close. They didn't even have a chance to tie their bows.
On the tower of Nanyang City, seeing that the archers had lost their effectiveness, and the Jiangdong army had also killed in front of him, he pulled out his sword in a panic and fought with the Jiangdong army.
The Jiangdong army led by LΓΌ Meng into Nanyang City was only 800 people, excluding the 300 people who eliminated the archers, and the number of people who killed the enemy at the city gate with him was only 500 people, and this pitiful number was still decreasing.
Fortunately, Huang Zhong's speed was not slow, and when the first drop of blood under Nanyang City landed, he seized the time to launch an attack, and at this time he had also rushed under the Nanyang City Gate.
Cao Jun, who hurriedly came to help, saw the shadow of the Jiangdong Army outside the city and above the city tower, although he was cowardly in his heart, he still grabbed the weapon in his hand and rushed forward.
Of the five generals of the Cao Army in Nanyang City, Huang Xu has already eliminated three of them, and is still fighting with Murong Ping, and the rest are resisting the Jiangdong Army on top of the city tower.
At this time, Cao Jun was like a group of children who had no one to discipline him, and he lost his command center. Not only did he become a mess with the Jiangdong Army, but his heart was also chaotic.
Huang Zhong was the first to rush out of the crowd, and when he arrived in the city, he shouted at the Cao army in the city: "Those who surrender will be spared death, and those who resist will be killed." β
Cao Jun, who was already discouraged, listened to Huang Zhong's stimulation at this time, and naturally many people began to feel depressed in their hearts, and the general who was forced to retreat by the Jiangdong Army on the stairs of the city tower shouted: "Those who are cowardly and flee will be dealt with by military law." Although this general is a little unsteady in dealing with the big scene, he is also a member of Cao Ying's loyalty.
