Chapter 933 Beat the Dog with a Stick

The three Yizhou troops rushed out of the ruined city of Chengdu on all sides. Although it is not just the meat on the legs of mosquitoes as Zhang He described, it cannot be called a fierce tiger or a lion. They are nothing more than a group of watchdogs in a broken house, and although their hearts are full of fear and helplessness, they still have to grin and pretend to be fearless.

However, since they have become the watchdogs abandoned by the Sima family, they will quickly pick up their tails after encountering the head of the stick, and they will no longer dare to share their hair with powerful people.

The first to suffer a fierce blow was the 40,000 Yizhou army led by Meng Shu and Zhang Yi who rushed out from the south gate.

More than 30,000 soldiers in the 40,000 Yizhou Army were brought back to Chengdu by Fa Zheng from Niupi, and their hands were naturally stained with the blood of the soldiers of the South Route Army. Although the nearly 20,000 soldiers of the Southern Route Army who died were all soldiers of Jiaozhi and Yizhou, since they were officially incorporated into the ranks of the Jin State's troops, they were treated as their own brothers by the soldiers of the Southern Route Army, and there was no distinction between them.

In particular, the reason why Wang Lu, the commander of the Marine Brigade, had to withdraw from the front-line battlefield because he was seriously injured and could only be a senior instructor in the Crouching Tiger Martial Arts Hall greatly stimulated the brothers of the Marine Brigade. Although the Crouching Tiger Command has not yet officially appointed Wang Lu as the commander, his status is actually the same as that of Gan Ning and Guan Ping, and Wang Lu's status in the hearts of the officers and men of the Marine Brigade is second only to Tai Shici, and he is deeply loved and respected by the officers and soldiers.

The main general Wang Lu was seriously injured and disabled by the southern barbarians led by Meng Huo, and it was also when the brothers of the Marine Brigade were not present at that time, which made the hearts of the brothers who arrived later panic.

Looking at the pheasant feathers on his head and his face painted with many strange colors, a military general rushed out of the south gate first, followed by the Southern Barbarian soldiers who were also dressed in strange costumes, and the 10,000 officers and soldiers of the Marine Brigade who had been waiting for this day silently greeted him.

The soldiers who have lived in the southern part of Yizhou and the Jiaozhi area for nearly a year have already developed immunity to Meng Shu and the strangely dressed troops under his command.

Tai Shi Ci knew that the brothers of the Marine Brigade were eager for revenge, and he did not stop him, but ordered the soldiers of the Shenhuo Battalion who controlled the Shenwei cannon to immediately adjust the angle of fire of the cannon barrel and fire fiercely at the Yizhou army that had just rushed out of the city gate hole, and no longer cared about the huge casualties caused by the flowering bullets that fell into the enemy group.

Rather than letting these vicious guys rush over and harm the elite troops of the Marine Brigade, it is better to beat them in the head before this, which can not only fulfill the wish of the soldiers of the Marine Brigade to kill a big battle, but also reduce the casualties of their own troops.

When Meng Huo, who was rushing to the front, heard the sound of cannons in the distance, he immediately swayed left and right and ran in a zigzag shape, and actually dodged a few shells that brushed his scalp. But his good luck ended here, the most capable group of soldiers in the Marine Brigade had already targeted him, and before he could rush in front of the infantry of the Marine Brigade, more than a dozen soldiers who were good at using javelins threw sharp javelins nearly a foot long at the war horse under Meng Huo's crotch, and shot Meng Huo's war horse into a hedgehog at that time.

Meng Xu, who rolled off the horse, was so angry that he screamed, carrying a big axe and trying to find someone desperately, but he was covered by a big net that came from his head, and then he was like a fish out of the water, no matter how much he fluttered, it was useless. After catching Meng Shu, he heard the general in charge whispering: "Brothers, beat me to death, as long as you keep your breath!"

After the brothers of the Marine Brigade made a move, the remaining more than 30,000 officers and soldiers of the Southern Route Army were not idle, and the entire 40,000 Yizhou troops rushed over from the city, and the 10,000 people of the Marine Brigade alone were afraid that they would suffer from indigestion.

Tai Shici himself also joined the battle group, and saw that he was wearing a black and shiny steel armor, wearing a tiger-headed general helmet with only two eyes, and holding a spear, coming and going freely in the ten thousand armies, only killing the oncoming Yizhou soldiers with fear. Guan Ping, who was guarding Tai Shici's side, was holding a big knife like a mad tiger, only cutting the road in front of him, and he no longer dared to come out to meet the soldiers of Yizhou.

In the melee, Zhang Yi finally faced Tai Shi Ci, and after a few rounds, he was stabbed by Tai Shi Ci with a shot, and before Zhang Yi fell off the horse, Guan Ping, who caught up from behind, split Zhang Yi in half with a knife.

Poor Zhang Yi can be regarded as a brave and resourceful general, just because he followed the Sima family, but in the end he ended up like this.

With Meng Huo being captured and Zhang Yi being beheaded, the Yizhou soldiers who rushed out of the south gate completely broke and fled, and in the roar of artillery fire and the shouts of the soldiers of the South Route Army, they surrendered one after another, not daring to resist again.

The 20,000 Wang Pingjun who rushed out from the east gate encountered Xu Rong's Kunlun army, and their fate was not much better. Wang Ping was a calm and calm general, not as reckless as Meng Huo, but Xu Rong, who was fighting against him, was even more calm and terrifying, and he was more experienced in commanding and commanding large corps operations.

The officers and men of the Kunlun Army did not have a particularly strong individual combat strength, but they paid the most attention to mutual cooperation, and when they met the enemy, they were orderly and had a clear division of labor, as if they were working together to make a big meal, so that Wang Ping, who rushed out of the city, saw that it was powerful.

Xu Rong did not go head-to-head with Wang Ping at all, but firmly placed himself in the position of the heavily protected Chinese army, commanded a heavy infantry to push it over, and beat Wang Ping and his men and horses not far away, almost killing Wang Ping on the spot.

The 20,000 Yizhou soldiers who rushed out from outside the east gate were defeated faster than those on the south gate. As soon as the ferocious Shenwei cannon rang out, these frightened soldiers locked their necks one after another, and knelt their bodies on the ground, not daring to make any movement. It wasn't until the soldiers of the Kunlun Army who came forward to capture the prisoners shouted: "Put down your weapons and surrender, don't climb on the ground and pretend to be a dead dog, the Shenwei cannon has been parked!" These Yizhou soldiers got up and surrendered tremblingly.

I can't complain that the Yizhou soldiers are timid and afraid of death, but these days they have watched the walls built of huge rocks being blown to pieces by artillery, and how can the flesh and blood human body block the artillery explosion?

The 20,000 Yizhou soldiers led by Zhang Wei and Wu Lan, who were regarded by them as mosquito legs, had no chance to make a move, and were almost pressed and beaten by the vanguard army. Zhang Wei and Wu Lan led the two generals to fight against Zhang He, the commander of the Northern Route Army, but they couldn't resist Zhang He's spear at all, and in less than thirty rounds, Zhang He was knocked off the horse one after another, leaving only half a life.

The battle on the West Gate started the latest, but ended the fastest, and the time before and after only lasted for half an hour, which can be regarded as a relief for the 30,000 soldiers of the vanguard army.
