Liu Renye and Zhang Gui were puzzled by Wei Ran's sudden move to attack Shouchun overnight, especially Liu Renye, who had always been cautious in using troops.

Liu Renye didn't care about etiquette at this time, and rushed directly to Wei Ran's tent and said: "Lord Wang, our army is newly defeated, thousands of people have been killed and wounded, and morale has been greatly reduced, so it is really unwise to attack Shouchun at this time." ”

When Wei Ran heard this, he scoffed at Liu Renye's statement, Wei Ran said coldly at this time: "Soldiers, track also, An Qingzhong's sneak attack was successful tonight, and he must be defenseless when he returns to Shouchun, although our army has suffered a small defeat, but the combat strength is intact, this king has made up his mind, so don't stop it." Liu Renye listened to the order and ordered you to lead the army to attack Shouchun immediately! ”

Although Liu Renye was reluctant, he was reluctant to disobey the order, and he had no choice but to take the order.

After An Qingzhong returned to Shouchun, he was also afraid for a while, the fierce generals in the Southern Qi army were like clouds, and he almost planted a fight.

However, thinking that he had defeated Nanqi's sharp spirit tonight, and the soldiers could rest well, An Qingzhong suddenly felt that although he was risky, he had gained a lot.

An Qingzhong immediately ordered his troops to sleep against the wall, leaving only a small group of soldiers and horses to monitor the movements of the Qi army at any time.

Just when An Qingzhong had just returned to the mansion and was about to rest, he suddenly heard the shouting of killing outside Shouchun City, An Qingzhong was shocked, and he ran to the door before he even had time to put on his boots, and hurriedly asked, "What's so noisy?" ”

The guards immediately shouted: "General, the Qi army has come and has already climbed the city wall!" ”

An Qingzhong was suddenly shocked, and then saw that the soldiers who came to deliver the message looked tired and covered in blood, and knew that this statement would not be false.

But An Qingzhong still muttered: "How could it be, how dare this Wei Ran." ”

The Southern Qi Army is another scene, Liu Renye led the troops to storm the south gate of Shouchun at night, at first the soldiers were unwilling, but the military order was like a mountain, and everyone dared not disobey.

Wei Ran allocated another 2,000 Tianxiong troops to Liu Renye, so that the Tianxiong army fought in the front, the Tianxiong army was extremely brave, and the soldiers had just set up the cloud ladder with their front feet, and the cloud ladder had not even been established, and the Tianxiong army had already started to climb the city tower along the cloud ladder.

The Qin army was defenseless at the moment, and in an instant, several Tianxiong troops ascended the city tower, and then the Tianxiong army formed a small formation and began to sweep the Qin army on the city tower.

Seeing this, the rest of the Qi army suddenly lifted their hearts, and began to climb the city wall one after another, and the Tianxiong army had completely controlled the southern city tower at this moment, and immediately began to kill the city, ready to open the city gate.

After An Qingzhong got the news, he immediately asked people to draw troops from the rest of the city gates to support the south gate, but at this time, Shouchun was like a broken dam, and it was difficult to block.

An Qingzhong had just transferred troops from the east and west gates on the front foot, and Zhang Gui had already led his troops to storm the east gate, and the east gate was immediately in an emergency.

Because there were too many Qin troops hoarded at the South Gate at the moment, the Qin Army was in a dilemma for a while, unable to support the East Gate in time, and a moment later, the East Gate Tower was also captured by the Qi army.

When An Qingzhong got the news, he was immediately furious, and personally led the army to the east gate, wanting to repel the Qi army.

At this time, Wei Ran sorted out the previous rout, and immediately killed the west gate, and the three gates of Shouchun City were all on fire.

The people in the city did not know the situation, and they closed their doors and windows one after another, not daring to peep.

Under the strong offensive of the Tianxiong army, the south gate was completely occupied, and the city gate was immediately opened.

Seeing this, Liu Renye held up his lance and said: "At this time, the husband has made meritorious contributions, and all the soldiers will charge with me. ”

Then Liu Renye took the lead in rushing into Shouchun City, the morale of the Southern Qi generals was like a rainbow, and the Western Qin defenders were defeated and retreated to the inner city.

An Qingzhong was at the east gate at this time, and happened to meet Zhang Gui, who took the lead in seizing the city tower.

The long knife was powerful and heavy, and after a few rounds, An Qingzhong was in a small space, and the mobility of the war horse could not be played at all, and after being cut off by Zhang Gui, An Qingzhong fell to the ground in response, and immediately got to fight with Zhang Gui.

Zhang Gui slashed several times in a row, An Qingzhong was defeated and retreated, and then Zhang Gui seized the opportunity, jumped up, and the long knife slashed at An Qingzhong from top to bottom.

An Qingzhong hurriedly waved his knife to block, but the long knife in his hand was split into two pieces by Zhang Gui's knife, fortunately he dodged in time, otherwise I am afraid that he would also turn into a soul under the knife.

An Qingzhong, who was in a panic, turned around and ran, Zhang Gui chased after him with a knife, An Qingzhong's left and right guards stopped Zhang Gui desperately when they saw this, and An Qingzhong escaped and went to the inner city.

At this time, the Southern Qi army had completely broken through Shouchun City, and in the face of absolute strength, the Western Qin soldiers were simply unable to resist, and immediately became a rout.

Only a small number of generals commanded troops retreated to the inner city unharmed, and most of the rest of the army either surrendered or had no choice but to engage in street battles with the Southern Qi army.

There are even more Western Qin soldiers who took off their military uniforms and forcibly entered the people's homes to hide, and the people of Shouchun were all in danger, and they even picked up hoes and other farm tools, staring at the city gate to prevent the rout from entering.

The two sides fought until dawn, and by this time the Southern Qi army had all entered Shouchun and surrounded An Qingzhong in the inner city.

Shouchun used to be the capital of the vassal states, so the inner city was also quite tightly repaired, Wei Ran looked at the inner city for a while and did not plan to attack it, the troops fought all night, and it also needed to be repaired at this time, so Wei Ran ordered everyone to besiege but not attack.

At this time, the people of Shouchun dared to open the window and watch, and when they saw the integrity of the Southern Qi army, they didn't dare to make a sound.

At this time, Wei Ran issued a notice in the whole city, prohibiting the army from plundering the people, but also prohibiting the people from harboring the soldiers of the Western Qin, requiring each household to open the door and let the soldiers enter and search.

Wei Ran shouted: "I am the son of the former Northern Qin Ding Nanhou, and now the king of Southern Qi Qin. The people of Shouchun used to be favored by my father Wei Zhi, and I treated the people of Shouchun like the people of Great Qi, but now I only chase the generals of Western Qin, and I will not embarrass the ordinary people and low-level soldiers, and everyone does not need to worry. ”

Under Wei Ran's words, many ordinary people took the initiative to cooperate with the Southern Qi army to conduct a search.

Some people even took the initiative to confess the hiding place of the Western Qin soldiers, and half a day later, Wei Ran had captured more than 2,000 Western Qin soldiers.

An Qingzhong, who was in the inner city, saw that Wei Ran had subdued Shouchun so easily, and couldn't help scolding: "A group of white-eyed wolves, how many years has Wei Zhi been dead, and he still has such prestige." ”

But what is even more of a headache for An Qingzhong at the moment is that there is not much food in the inner city, and at the moment it is surrounded on all sides, there is a shortage of food, and many generals have already moved the mind of surrendering.

An Qingzhong is not unaware of the change in the minds of his subordinates, but without him at this moment, An Qingzhong is indeed helpless.

At this time, Wei Ran's troops had been repairing for more than half a day, and the army was arrayed to besiege the inner city.

Wei Ran rode forward and said: "As long as this king is An Qingzhong, those who surrender now can save their lives, resist stubbornly, and wait for this king to break the city, and the chickens and dogs will not be left." ”
