Chapter 103: Cavalry Street Fighting (Subscription Requested)
After the army entered the city, it went directly to the south of the city, and the team kept an eye along the main road between the north and south, and only walked a few hundred steps before encountering a group of patrolling Cao troops.
"Kill-" Qin Feng roared, rode his horse and rushed towards the group, and thousands of soldiers behind him also yelled and pounced.
The one hundred and ten people on patrol saw that it was not their own people who were coming at them, but the enemy army, and they wanted to meet them, but they saw that Qin Feng's people were so strong that they didn't dare to fight, so they turned around and ran.
However, they were able to run off four legs on two legs, and under the charge of Qin Feng and more than a thousand cavalry, they were soon covered with corpses.
Taishou Mansion is in the middle of the city, not far from the intersection of the two main roads in the city, Yang Jun's 500 men and horses left behind at this time have 300 people in the military camp next to the Taishou Mansion on standby, the captain who led the team heard the shouting of killing, immediately sent someone to investigate, and learned that the enemy army had entered the city and killed this side, and immediately lit up the camp of men and horses.
Three hundred people were brought down the street by the captain to rush towards Qin Feng's army, but when Qin Feng rushed over with the cavalry first, the faces of the Cao army sergeants showed frightened expressions on their faces.
Infantry to cavalry on not wide streets? Isn't this hitting a stone with an egg?
Before the front row had time to crouch down and set up a spear formation, a wave of dense arrows came over, and Cao Jun fell one after another.
The horses rushed over, filled with the sound of spears breaking and the screams of the Cao soldiers, many of them were knocked out by the high-speed sprinting horses, and some of the several Cao soldiers were strung together by a Flame Army cavalry with a spear through a meat skewer.
After the cavalry hooves were trampled, many people only heard the sound of broken sternums and ribs, and some people's chests were directly trampled by the horses' hooves, and their mouths vomited blood.
Three hundred infantry were slaughtered in just a few breaths.
However, the losses of the cavalry of the Flame Army were not small, and some of the cavalry in the first few rows were pierced by the spear array that the opponent had barely propped up, and some even men and horses were pierced by spears.
There were also some cavalrymen who fell to death by the horses' hooves of their horses in the corpses of the enemy at high speed and were trampled by the horses of their comrades in the rear, and some of them fell down because their legs were cut off and died under the hooves of their comrades.
The cavalry ploughed the field again, and Qin Feng didn't have time to count his casualties, so he immediately divided 500 troops to attack the East City Gate, and then divided 500 troops to attack the East City Gate, and ordered a captain to take 200 people to fight the Taishou Mansion.
He himself led all the remaining horses straight to the south gate.
There was a fierce battle going on up and down the southern city wall at the moment, and Gan Ning even personally led the team to attack the city.
Although Qin Feng gave him the task of feint to attack the South City Gate, try to make a big noise, the bigger the momentum, the better, to attract the attention of the defenders, Qin Feng did not expect his side to capture the South City Gate in a short time, but Gan Ning personally led the team to attack the city to try, what if he succeeded in taking the south city wall first and entering the city?
Gan Ning was brave, took the lead, personally led the team to attack the city and was the first to kill the city wall, which gave the morale of the soldiers under his command a shot in the arm, and also frightened Yang Jun and some generals of the Cao army, under the command of Yang Jun, a large number of Cao troops pounced on Gan Ning.
Gan Ning fought bravely, and there were countless Cao Jun sergeants who died under his sword, but there were more and more Cao soldiers around him, and there were more and more injuries on his own body.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer of his own sergeants rushing up, Su Fei shouted to Gan Ning while fighting: "General, you can't do anything, let's retreat for the time being, and then come to capture the city when we redeploy, right?" ”
Gan Ning was indeed a little unable to hold on, he didn't remember how many Cao Jun he had killed, but at the moment he felt a little weak, and he didn't know if it was because he had dropped out of school too much, and if he continued to fight, he didn't know if he could retreat safely.
He took the rest of the soldiers and fought and retreated, seeing that he was about to be driven off the city wall by the Cao army, when a large number of shouts and killings came from the city, and the sound of horses' hooves roared like thunder in the sky, and many Cao soldiers fled from the street to the south gate.
Gu Li
"Oh no, the enemy army has entered the city, run away!" Someone shouted as they ran.
A soldier ran up to the tower out of breath and shouted: "Tai Shou, the enemy army has entered the city, there are thousands of men and horses!" ”
Yang Jun's head was dizzy when he heard this, and he only felt that his vision was a little blurry.
"Too guarded, too guarded······" A lieutenant hurriedly supported Yang Jun.
Yang Jun shook his head, his head cleared up a little, he turned his head to look at the soldiers who were already in chaos on the city wall, and then looked at the Jingzhou army that was still attacking outside the city, knowing that the city had been broken and settled, and if he continued to fight at this moment, it would only increase casualties.
was about to give the order to surrender and save the lives of more than 2,000 soldiers, but a lieutenant next to him immediately beckoned a few sergeants: "Wait for the Taishou to protect you, follow us to kill out, how many can escape, go quickly!" ”
Gan Ning and the others, who were originally oppressed and almost jumped off the city wall to escape, heard the sound of shouting and killing in the city at this moment, and knew that Qin Feng had succeeded, and suddenly resurrected like full of blood, raising his sword and shouting: "The reinforcements have broken the city, all the soldiers will kill with me, kill-"
"Kill—"
This shout not only boosted the morale of the Jingzhou army, but also dealt a great blow to the Cao army, the Cao army, who was still full of morale just now, heard the shouts of killing in the city at this moment, and heard the shouts of Gan Ning, and the morale was dissipated on the spot, and the original offensive posture was changed to defense.
"Oh no, I'm too guarded to escape from the city tower!" Cao Jun didn't know who shouted.
This sound was like a straw that crushed the hearts of all the soldiers of the Cao Army, and the morale dropped to the bottom in an instant, the defeat was like a mountain, the battlements were undefended, and soon many Jingzhou soldiers climbed up.
"Kill—"
Everyone wanted to escape, but the city wall was so wide, some people wanted to flee to the east, some people wanted to set it to the west, people were crowded, no one could escape, and the Jingzhou army that rushed up raised their knives and slashed and stabbed with their spears.
After suffering heavy casualties, many Cao soldiers dropped their weapons and knelt down on the spot to surrender, since they couldn't escape, it was important to simply surrender to save their lives.
With the surrender of a large number of Cao troops on the city wall, the battle above and below the city wall quickly ended, and Qin Feng led his men and horses to complete the rendezvous with Gan Ning.
"General, Nanyang Taishou Yang Jun and the others are missing!" A lieutenant ran over to report.
Qin Feng said: "I have sent troops to attack the east and west gates, Yang Jun and the others should still be in the city, pass the order, the whole city of Dasuo, we must find out Yang Jun and the others!" ”
"Yes!"
Subsequently, Qin Feng ordered to collect the prisoners, treat the wounded, clean up the battlefield, collect the remains of the soldiers on both sides of the enemy and us, find someone to write a notice to the people, and tell the fathers and elders of the city to cooperate with the soldiers to search for Yang Jun and other important criminals, register the fallen soldiers on their own side, and arrange bereavement and centralized burial.
A series of orders were issued, and his own personnel went to carry them out, and Gan Ning saw that he acted in moderation and thought about the priorities of things quite thoughtfully, and he immediately felt admiration.
At about noh in the afternoon, the captain in charge of the whole city of Dasuo came to report: "General Qiyu, some people in the defenders of the East City Gate have reported that when they were fighting for the West City Gate where the Cao army was stationed, a group of Cao troops took advantage of the chaos to escape, and among these people who escaped should be Yang Jun and others!" ”
Qin Feng looked at Yang Hong and sighed: "Originally, I wanted Mr. Yang to meet with his brother Yang Jun and catch up on the old days, but I didn't expect that there was still no chance, it seems that I only have to wait for the future!" ”
