Chapter 268: Abandon the city and flee

Peng Cheng, the commander of the corps who took the lead, was killed by the enemy's hidden weapons, and his bones were gone, so how could the ordinary Jin soldiers below withstand the rush of so many chivalrous men and wooden troops? The more than 100 Jin soldiers who had finally climbed to the top of the city were either stabbed to the ground or pushed off the city, and none of them were spared, and all of them died.

Under the joint counterattack of the heroes of the Mu Kingdom and the wooden army in the city, the third strong charge of the Jin army has also ended in a fiasco, in addition to Peng Cheng, the commander of the fifth corps in the army, Liu Ka, also died on the battlefield.

Taking advantage of the weak offensive of the Jin army, the knights who assisted in defending the city sat down to rest, and several knights sat around the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi, scrambling to report their names.

The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi was very arrogant, he didn't care what their names were at all, he sat on the ground with an expressionless face, and he didn't even politely return his name.

In his mind, he is a member of the Holy Shrine, not something that these mediocre people can compare with.

For his arrogant attitude, the knights around him didn't care, they were just eager to have a relationship with him, pull things around, and talk non-stop as if flattering.

Although the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi didn't take them seriously, he also enjoyed the feeling of being held by the crowd, sitting in the crowd, complacent.

"Chirp-"

At this moment, a sharp cry suddenly came from outside the city, and the scream continued to sound high in the air, and then, with a bang, exploded. Unfortunately, it's daytime, and if it's nighttime, you'll be able to see how dazzling the fireworks are in the sky.

The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi is a chivalrous man, so he is naturally no stranger to this kind of thing, his body suddenly shook, and he blurted out in surprise: "There is a chivalrous man sending a signal outside the city!"

"That's right!" The rangers around him also frowned, and said suspiciously, "What does this mean?

The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi rolled his eyes, and he was about to get up, wanting to lie on the head of the city to see what was going on. But the surrounding knights grabbed him and said nonsense: "The other party is outside the city, and it has nothing to do with us, let them toss......"

This is the truth, but the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi is still not at ease, and shouts coldly to the knights around him: "You let go!"

"Why should the seniors be angry!" the knight across from him tugged at his clothes. Hippie said with a smile.

"Presumptuous!" The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi was furious, raised his hand, and was about to wave it at the other party, suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his lower back, he subconsciously looked back, and a dagger was inserted into his lower waist, and the person holding the dagger was a chivalrous man sitting behind him.

"You ......"

Before he could scream, the knights around him clung to him and didn't let go. While revealing the dagger hidden in his sleeve, he stabbed him silently but tacitly.

The knights stabbed the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi with a frantic knife, and sneered in a low voice: "The Holy Venerable Hall......, right?

"Plop, pounce, plop—"

The sound of the dagger entering the flesh was endless, and in an instant, the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi became a bloody man, with blood holes in his chest and back, and he was pitiful of his ability, but he didn't even understand what the situation was. was stabbed to death by the knights with daggers.

The knights were in a circle, and the wooden soldiers outside couldn't see what was going on inside. However, when the blood flowed from under the feet of the people, the wooden soldiers were also shocked and shouted, "What's the matter?"

Confirming that the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi was dead, the knights threw away the daggers in their hands, showed their weapons, and then turned back in unison. Facing Mu Jun, who hadn't figured out the situation yet, they all sneered: "It's okay, it's okay, the brothers are here to send you back to the west!"

While speaking, several knights attacked in unison and rushed into the wooden army. The weapon in his hand is waved open, and he will cut down when he sees someone, and kill anyone he encounters.

For a while, the screams were continuous.

This is just a corner of the southern city, seeing the signal sent by Fu Tao, Lin Chao, and Yu Zijing outside the city, more than 100 chivalrous warriors lurking in the defenders suddenly turned against the wooden army and the chivalrous warriors who assisted in the defense.

This unexpected attack, straight to the defenders by surprise, especially the knights who assisted in the city defense, they became the primary target of Fu Tao's three subordinates, caught off guard, most of the knights died in a daze, and the lucky knights who did not die were also wounded, and their combat power was sharply reduced, either hiding in the wooden soldiers, or fleeing to the city.

The city wall of Nancheng was in chaos, and more than 100 knights who defected turned the city defense of Nancheng upside down, there were fights everywhere, and there were near-death screams of wooden soldiers everywhere, but the casualties at this moment exceeded the casualties when resisting the attack of the Jin army.

Under the city, Zhang Bufan and Jin Cheng, who were at a loss for the strong city defense of the wooden army, heard the chaos in the city, and the two of them were stunned, and after a while, Jin Cheng first came back to his senses, and said to Zhang Bufan and surprised: "It must be Fu Tao and others who are ambushed in the city and their subordinates have begun to attack, General Zhang, the opportunity must not be lost, I will attack quickly!"

After his reminder, Zhang Bufan also understood what was going on, he laughed twice, and shouted at the surrounding Jin army soldiers: "Our reinforcements have been killed in the city, brothers, follow me to kill!"

"Kill—"

This time, the soldiers of the Jin Army came to the spirit and swarmed up along the ladder.

The wooden soldiers on the city were difficult to protect themselves, where did they still have the energy to fight the Jin army who climbed the ladder, and soon, one city defense was breached, and then the second and third were breached......

It didn't take long for the walls of Nancheng to be seen everywhere with red-eyed Jin troops with swords.

After Zhang Bufan did not fall behind, he was one of the first Jin army soldiers to kill the head of the city, seeing that the Mu army was fighting chaotically, he didn't care whether there were his own people in the crowd on the other side, and with a wave of the silver gun, the whirlwind of knives was released.

His sword whirlwind and Peng Cheng's sword whirlwind can't be compared, the same martial arts skill was used by the two, and the effect and power were completely different.

Zhang Bufan's whirlwind of knives can be described as dark and dark, and the ghost cries and howls, and the air currents in the sky are so many that they can't tell the number, when the air flow passes, even the bricks on the ground are scraped off a layer, and within the range of its attack, whether it is a wooden soldier wearing steel armor or a knight with a dark qi protector, all of them are cut into pieces by the air flow, and finally only the pieces of meat scattered all over the ground remain.

Zhang Bufan's cultivation may not be the best in the world, but the power of the Underworld Martial Arts skills he released is definitely outstanding, of course, this is also related to his own Underworld Martial Arts level.

Refusing him outside the city, the wooden soldiers still didn't feel Zhang Bufan's horror, and when he rushed to the city and turned into a face-to-face melee battle, Zhang Bufan became a nightmare for the wooden soldiers.

A silver spear is slashed open, it hits it and dies, and if it sticks, it kills, and the air flow scattered when he swings the gun at will alone can cut down a large number of people.

In front of Zhang Bufan, the wooden soldiers, the wooden generals and the knights mixed in it were all as fragile as grass, and no one could resist his edge.

Zhang Bufan was killed from the city to the city, and when he arrived at the city gate, he went down with two shots, cut off all the wooden stakes that held the city gate, and then removed the door latch, opened the city gate, and let the Jin army outside enter the city.

As the city gate was opened, the Jin army outside the city swarmed in, which also announced the beginning of the fall of Ningyang Nancheng.

Lin Haotian of Dongcheng was overjoyed when he heard the news that Zhang Bufan and Jin Cheng had broken through Nancheng, and immediately ordered Dou Bo to command the Third Army to keep up, kill from Nancheng inward, and annihilate the defenders in the city.

Dou Bo took the order, mobilized the Third Army to go to Nancheng, and followed Zhang Bufan's ass into the city.

The southern city was lost, and the army of the Jin Kingdom had entered the city, which was undoubtedly bad news for Cao Xiong.

He gave the order as soon as possible, and all the defenders everywhere retreated to the west of the city, and then, Cao Xiong took a group of people and went to the west of the city.

When the soldiers under his command were almost assembled, he ordered the whole army to break through to the west and retreat to the dangerous Crouching Tiger Pass.

Hearing his order, the generals of the Mu army were all taken aback, once they evacuated Ningyang, what would happen to the people in the city? The Jin army suffered losses in Wangfeng County one after another, and if they attacked Ningyang this time, how could they let the people in the city go?

Cao Xiong also understands this truth, but now he has no choice, not only will it not help to stay, but he will also take the lives of his own soldiers in vain, and now there is only one way to retreat.

He took a deep breath, ignored the reluctance of the congregational generals, and resolutely ordered: "Withdraw!" (to be continued......)
