Li Guiren rode out of the cavalry, his eyes were sunken, and he stared indifferently and cruelly at the crimson banners and rows of soldiers in the city. Since Fan Yang raised his troops, the iron cavalry led by him has gone south to attack the city and break through the pass to kill the county guards. made him can't help but give birth to the strongest heroic spirit in the world, and even the self-proclaimed elite Hexi Army is cowering in this Fengxiang City?

He ordered a Khitan general beside him: "You go, shout in front of the city gate."

The general rode his horse to the front of the city, raised his head and shouted to the city: "Listen to the people of the Hexi Army, we are bound to win this Fufeng County City!" My general also said that he can give you a chance to withdraw from this city and withdraw to Qinzhou, and we promise not to attack you. But if you are stubborn and stubbornly resist, the day the city is broken, you will be taught to die and have no place to be buried, and the people in the city will not be spared!"

Yan Xiaosi held on to the female wall with his hand and beckoned to the soldiers beside him: "Bring me the crossbow!"

The soldier sat on the ground with his legs and crossed the bow, used his strength to eat milk, pulled the strings with both hands, loaded the arrows and handed them to him, Yan Xiaosi took the crossbow arrows and aimed them at the battlement, and aimed at the face of the general's beard.

"I warn you one last time, abandoning the city is the best way out!"

Li Guiren suddenly looked at the head of the city, and immediately shouted to the general: "Quick! Come back!"

But it was too late, and the crossbow arrows swished down from the city, and in the middle of the general's nose, the arrows went half a foot deep and blood splattered, and they fell from their horses and fell to the ground.

At the head of the city, Yan Xiaosi ordered the soldiers to beat the drums, and the soldiers waved their flags and laughed, and the drums and laughter were mixed together demonic and harsh.

Li Guiren was furious, waving his horsewhip and shouting: "Beat the drum! Siege!"

The rear of the rebels made a dull sound that shook the earth with the erection of drums on both sides, and nearly a hundred crossbow carts aimed at the city walls and threw arrows.

Yan Xiaosi hurriedly squatted down with his pocket, and shouted at the same time: "Ignite the cannon!"

The sergeants lit the twist at the end of the basalt cannon with torches in their hands, and squatted on the ground with their ears covered, silently counting their breaths in their hearts. One, two, three! Boom! The muzzle of the cannon spewed out hot flames, and the projectiles burst into the enemy's formation, like several thunderbolts slamming the ground, impacting the rebels in all directions.

Li Guiren crouched on his horse and shouted in panic: "What is this!"

At the same time, the holes in the earthen fortresses on both sides of the city wall lit up with flashes, and at this moment, like a strong wind, the cannonballs burst not far from Li Guiren's right side, and he hurriedly dodged on the left side of the horse, while covering his ears with a sharp shout.

The buzzing sound of tinnitus made him dizzy, and the blood seemed to be pouring into his ear canal, An Shouzhong had already turned around and immediately shouted at him, and it was obvious from the shape of his mouth that he shouted for him to withdraw.

Li Guiren hugged the horse's neck tightly and shouted: "Retreat!"

His horse galloped past a man who was lying on the ground, and the horse's hooves trampled on the horseman, who was crushing one leg under the horse, until his sternum collapsed, and his mouth pumped blood, and the horse's intestines flowed to the ground, and the smell was unusual.

"Let's go!" The cavalry rolled from both sides of the foot soldiers and retreated into the distance. The foot soldiers ran in the center of the two cavalry groups.

The recoil of the basalt cannon on the earthen rampart at the head of the city retreated, and the soldiers hurriedly cleaned the chamber with a wooden pestle wrapped in cloth, and then reloaded the twist, filled it with gunpowder, and filled it with projectiles. Yan Xiaosi carried a knife and walked back and forth behind the gun mount and urged: "Hurry up, hurry up and ignite the fire!" Raise the muzzle by six inches! If you run away, you won't be able to hit!"

The rumbling artillery fire once again raised smoke and shook the city, and the rebel cavalry ran fast, long out of the range of the artillery fire, and the foot soldiers were about to break away, and the tumbling and exploding artillery fire only tossed a few flag bearers behind them.

Li Siye sat in the hall of the city tower and ordered loudly: "Beat the drum, attack!"

The city gates on the east and west sides of Fengxiang City were wide open, Duan Xiushi led the Han Navy Iron Cavalry to cover the pursuit from the left side, Ma Phosphorus led a part of the Flying Tiger Cavalry to cover the pursuit from the right side, An Shouzhong's infantry formation bore the brunt, and the foot soldiers threw down the siege equipment, Fu Yuan crossbow and other baggage and ran wildly.

Li Guiren, who was riding on the back of a horse with bleeding ears, was unstable, and he was skewed from side to side and dragged the reins, but his mind was at least clear, and he suddenly grabbed the reins of the horse, turned the horse, pulled out the knife from his waist and shouted: "Don't run!" Being chased after and beaten will only be a failure! Kill me back! Don't let An Shouzhong's foot soldiers die at the hands of the enemy!"

"Tong Luo Bing! Falling River! Kill me back, their fire-breathing thing can't chase this far!"

The discipline of the rebel cavalry was also quite good, and after seeing the flags behind the main general waving back and forth, the generals and captains of each battalion and regiment all turned back decisively, and the horns let out a low whining.

"Beat the war drums for me, but dare to retreat in one team, and I will kill them all when I go back!"

General Li Guiren gave an order, and the generals turned their flags upside down and made an earth-shattering roar, accompanied by the beating of drums that shook the earth, and every cavalry member followed the banners and flags behind the commander, turning into hundreds of rushes, and rushed towards the cavalry of the Hexi Army rushing from both sides.

The two sides drew up their horned bows and fired a round on horseback, and then the cavalry rushed forward to stagger in the dust, or someone fell from his horse, dragged by the stirrup and pulled out a hundred and ten paces, and the winner took advantage of the momentum to charge the next enemy.

Li Guiren's cavalry quickly picked up the infantry and shouted at the loyal banners in the crowd: "Form a phalanx!" I'll protect your left and right wings!"

An Shouzhong personally blew the horn of the bull and ordered all battalions under his command to form a formation, and the crossbowmen were quickly organized into an orderly battle formation.

Ma Pho decisively led the cavalry on the right flank, interspersed through the junction of the enemy's cavalry and soldiers, and swung his blade to slash the enemy cavalry. An Shouzhong's phalanx that was about to be organized was about to disperse again. Ann personally jumped off his horse, carrying the Mo Knife to summon the Strikers to maintain stability in front and slash the enemy horsemen.

In front of Fengxiang City, all the foot soldiers of the Hexi Army had already left the city, and they pressed towards the enemy infantry formation in a black pressure, and several Xuanwu cannons slowly moved forward under the pull of soldiers and cattle and horses.

……

Zang Xiye, who was ambushed near the Baiquliulian Bridge, waited patiently among the woods, and the rebel team did not retreat past here, which made him very suspicious, so he sent a man and a horse to investigate.

The horse's hooves clattered back into the woods, turned over and dismounted and reported to Zang Xiye's fork hand: "Report! General Zang, the rebels were about to retreat to our side, but somehow they suddenly killed them back. ”

"Kill back?" Zang Xiye frowned and thought carefully, rubbed his palms back and forth, and suddenly said: "Everyone follow me on the horse and attack the rear of the rebels with lightning speed."

The adjutant general questioned next to him: "Envoy Zang, the military order given to us by the doctor is to ambush and attack the rebels here, if we go back, I am afraid that something will be wrong."

Zang Xiye lowered his head and pondered again, and then said: "According to my experience in fighting for so many years, the enemy army turned back and did not retreat for a long time, it must be a stalemate between the two sides, we go back and stab him, we will definitely be able to end the battle ahead of schedule and reduce the casualties of our army!" The general needs to act improvised, get on the horse! Kill back!"

"Whoa!"

The lieutenants under his command began to gather their soldiers, divided into three groups, turned over and galloped out of the forest, and six thousand elite horsemen galloped from both sides of the Liulian Bridge in the direction of Fengxiang, and the horses' hooves stepped out of the rolling dust and swept away.
