Chapter 65: The Death of Yangcheng

At this time......

In the Yang City, the beacon fire is blazing, the smoke is billowing, and the Yang City is overlooked, like the sunset of the end of the world.

Outside the city, the city wall was cracked, and corpses were everywhere, and the ground was in shambles.

On the messy battlefield outside the city, countless sharp arrows and broken spears were scattered everywhere, like bushes. The city wall of more than 20 zhang high is cracked everywhere, stained with blood, and at the city gate, there is a passage about dozens of meters wide, which is where the barbarian army enters the city, and the city walls in other places still hold its post.

"My lord, it's not good, it's not good"

"What's going on?"

"Master Qianfu, the Terran cavalry came just now, our people were all wiped out, the lock slave thousand households died, and the two thousand warriors were almost dead, and the Terran cavalry is now pursuing the brothers who escaped."

"What? almost annihilated?" Raven was in his thirties, slightly short in stature, with a sparse beard, and he was also temporarily promoted to a thousand households, just like the lock slaves, and had a thousand newly annexed tribal armies under his command.

At this moment, he was more surprised than shocked, since he was sensible, the war with the Terrans had been very smooth, and the Terrans always fled in despair, so that even he was very disdainful of the Terrans;

And according to the information he obtained, the only Terran army in the vicinity with some combat effectiveness has already lost both sides of his side in the previous and today's battles, and it should be temporarily unable to send troops, how can a Terran cavalry suddenly appear in this vicinity?

The two thousand barbarian cavalry taken over by Suonu, although it was a newly incorporated tribal army, but it was also a warrior selected by thousands of tribes below, how could it be defeated all at once, and it was almost completely annihilated, even the commander died, and only a few small soldiers escaped.

"Yes, my lord, almost all of the two thousand warriors are dead, all dead," the mud-covered brute knight shuddered as he spoke, he was one of the soldiers who had survived the battle just now, and it was obvious that the battle had just been very frightened.

"Tell me, where did this Terran come from? How many centaurs are there?"

"The little one doesn't know where this group of cavalry came from, but I saw a big banner with a leaf character, there were about 3,000 people and horses, so ruthless, two charged down, and most of the brothers died."

The crow was about to ask again, when another subordinate suddenly rushed in from outside the door, and reported loudly: "My lord, general, there is an army of officers and soldiers from the south who are coming straight to Yangcheng, less than ten miles away from the city, and the speed is very fast."

"Tell me, how many people are there on the other side?"

"Back to my lord, I saw from a distance that there were more than 3,000 people all over the mountains. ”

"Probe, give the order, all the horses are immediately armed, come, take my armor. ”

The crow hurriedly put on his armor, and then went straight to the south gate with his own soldiers, and after the brute cavalry broke through Yangcheng, he was busy grabbing supplies, and did not waste manpower to repair the gap they had broken, so the gap was still open.

The city had been in chaos for almost a day and a night, but the red-eyed horsemen had no intention of stopping, and most of the people had not rested since they entered the city.

The crows temporarily set up a defense at the breach, trying to keep the Terran cavalry out of the city, so as to wait for the army in the city to come to the rescue.

It's a pity that it's a little late, Wang Feng and they were originally chasing the rout, there is only a distance of about twenty miles between the two sides, and the cavalry is charging with all their might, and it will arrive in the blink of an eye, plus the barbarian cavalry is originally a force that is good at attacking but not good at defense.

"Rush!"

Wang Feng was the first to rush to the outside of Yangcheng City, at this time at the gap in the city gate, the brute cavalry was all crowded together in a hurry, there was no formation at all, and the number of people was not much, only about a thousand people.

Wanyan Azhe didn't expect Ye Qing to come so quickly, now almost all the barbarian horsemen are busy robbing and killing people in the city, originally according to Wanyan Azhe's idea, the army will immediately withdraw to the tribe after grabbing enough supplies, and is not entangled with the human race, so no one is willing to defend outside the city.

Most of the soldiers gathered in a hurry by the crows, who did not even have horses, grabbed their spears and ran out.

Blame the lock slave, the crow is mainly responsible for the defense of the city gate, and the lock slave is indeed responsible for the periphery, so all the scouts outside are sent by the lock slave, and when he received the news of the arrival of the Terran army, the lock slave did not report to the crow, but directly led the army to rush up directly.

Who would have thought that his elite would die directly in battle, and he didn't even have time to deliver the news, and the crow was not prepared at all.

The cavalry that became infantry was the opponent of the Ye army cavalry, whose speed had been raised to the peak, but it was just a face, and the barbarians who were all crowded together flew with flesh and blood, and lost most of them.

Wang Feng took the lead and killed several barbarians one after another, and the other cavalry were not to be left behind, and each stepped forward bravely. As soon as the two sides looked at each other, hundreds of barbarians were stabbed to death, and the barbarians in front of them were frightened for a while.

After a while, there were only Ye army cavalry standing at the gap, Wang Feng's initial goal had been achieved, and now he was to hold on to this gap and wait for the arrival of the infantry army, after all, their cavalry would be hindered a lot in the city, and they would not be able to give full play to their advantages.

Although the barbarians were busy snatching supplies, they were still very vigilant, and less than a stick of incense when Wang Feng captured the city gate, he saw a team of barbarian horsemen coming quickly from a distance.

There was only one main road leading to the city at the south gate, and although the houses on both sides had been destroyed, the soldiers could not walk on it normally, let alone fight.

As soon as the two sides fought, the brute felt unbearable, and he couldn't show it on the street, although there were many people on both sides, but there were so many people who fought face-to-face. What kind of formation or anything like that doesn't work at all. At this time, it is purely a contest of soldiers' individual combat strength and will to fight.

After robbing for so long, his body is still full of 'trophies', and he has not rested for a long time, and his physical strength is very overdrawn, not to mention any momentum.

Looking at Ye Jun, although it was also a long journey, his physical strength had been consumed to a certain extent, but after all, he came to save people, and he overwhelmed the brute in terms of momentum.

Thousands of people on both sides crowded into this not wide street, and the only ones who could engage in the battle were those dozens or hundreds, and the rest could only stare dryly.

But this also happened to follow Wang Feng's heart, after all, his main task now is to hold this gap, so that the infantry army can enter the city smoothly, otherwise if the barbarians block this place, the Ye army is coming to a siege battle, and the consumption is too great.

In this way, the two sides come and go, although the battle is very fierce, but the damage is limited, and no one can think about anyone in a short time.

More than an hour later, the infantry army led by Ye Qing finally arrived.

Naturally, there was not much suspense in the outcome of the battle, although the barbarian cavalry was powerful in the field, but in the city, there were houses and ravines everywhere, and the cavalry could not run at all, so they could only stand in place and fight against Ye Jun.

As an infantry, Ye Jun is also specially trained in street fighting, although it cannot form a large-scale battle formation, but the battle formation composed of 100 people is indeed the most suitable for street fighting.

As early as the beginning of the siege of the barbarians, the four gates of Yangcheng had been sealed, if it weren't for the special care of the barbarians, the south gate would not have been opened.

After Ye Qing's army arrived, he directly sealed the gap opened by the barbarians, and directly caught turtles in an urn.

The battle of encirclement and suppression of the city on the battlefield lasted for two days and two nights before all the barbarians, including Wanyan Azhe, were completely wiped out.

After the war, when Ye Qing was looking back and observing Yangcheng, even after a long battle recently, he was shocked.

There is hardly a complete building in Yangcheng now, and none of the people are injured, those white-haired old men, the big girl and the little daughter-in-law who are still carrying spears in their hands, are they who have resisted until the end?

Just cleaning up the battlefield, even with the help of the people of Yangcheng, it took three days.

In this battle, a total of more than 38,000 barbarian horsemen were wiped out, and nearly 100,000 war horses were captured, all of which were prepared by the barbarians to transport materials, and there were countless weapons and armor.

Although the results were brilliant, the losses were also very heavy, and Yangcheng sacrificed nearly 300,000 people from the city lord Liu Yun, nearly ten times that of the barbarians. A small city of more than 600,000 people before the war is now less than half of the population left, and the whole city has suddenly become very heavy.

And the Ye army, in the street battle, in the face of the last crazy counterattack of the barbarian cavalry, also suffered serious losses, a total of more than 5,000 people directly lost their lives, nearly 3,000 people were seriously injured, and will leave the army.

Yangcheng City Lord's Mansion.

At this time, the city lord's mansion was no longer what it was, it was demolished in pieces, and even the door panels were torn down and I don't know where to throw it.

"I'm really a mess!" Looking at the messy City Lord's Mansion, Ye Qing smiled bitterly. Fortunately, the hall of the City Lord's Mansion was still intact, and Ye Qing convened the generals here.

"The walls of Yangcheng should be rebuilt and reinforced. Ye Qing said: "This matter must be started immediately, the news of the annihilation of Yan Azhe's entire army will not be concealed for a long time, according to the character of the barbarians, maybe when the barbarians' revenge will come back." ”

"Don't worry, my lord, I will start this matter immediately, and restore the defense of Yangcheng as soon as possible, but the food in Yangcheng is running out, and I also ask my lord to allocate a batch of food for emergency as soon as possible. Wang Yang wiped his beard and got up.

Wang Yang is a talent discovered by Ye Qing in Yangcheng, and he has a high prestige among the people of Yangcheng. used to be a small official under Liu Yun, and he was not too reused.

Wang Yang is a capable official, after Yangcheng was broken, he did not abandon the people and hide by himself, but led a large number of people to rely on the house to start resisting the barbarians, not to mention, relying on his familiarity with Yangcheng, he really killed a large number of barbarians.

But his ability is indeed beyond doubt, in the past few days of cleaning the battlefield, he has already settled the remaining more than 300,000 people in Yangcheng, and has organized them to start resuming production.

"Mr. Wang, rest assured, it turns out that Yangcheng has been incorporated into my rule, and I am naturally responsible for the affairs of the people of Yangcheng, I have already given an order to Qingyun City and asked them to urgently allocate a batch of food, and now they should be ready to go on the road. “
