Jiang Wei had seen it when he was lying on the head of the city before, and to the north of the White Tiger Gate was Weiyang Palace.

This means that Jiang Wei and their left hand side, Yang Ke and their right hand side are the palace complex, if you climb over the palace wall, you can jump into Weiyang Palace.

The palace of Weiyang is huge, and the continuous palace community has not been repaired for some years, and the warehouse pond has almost dried up. And the Wei army, which defended against the attack of the Han army in the south, is currently stationed in this palace.

So when Jiang Wei and the others jumped down from the palace wall, they saw that the palace complex in the distance was surrounded by tents, ordnance, materials, and storage, which was where the Wei army stored materials.

Seeing this scene, the team leader who followed over couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said, "If you bring fire oil and burn this place with a fire, wouldn't it be a great achievement?" ”

Jiang Wei glanced at him and said, "Are you sure it's a great achievement?" ”

"Isn't it?"

"If you really burn down Weiyang Palace, believe it or not, the Metropolitan Governor will behead you."

"Huh?"

The team leader was dumbfounded and said, "Why? ”

Jiang Wei pointed to the palace over there and said, "Your Majesty wants to restore the Han Dynasty and return it to the old capital." You have burned the old capital, and it will be up to you to see if the governor will cut you down. ”

The team leader suddenly shrunk his neck and said with a smile: "It's still the military marquis who has insight." ”

"Let's go, don't waste time."

Jiang Wei waved his hand.

Now Cao Ying was completely unguarded, and their manpower was already stretched, and almost all of them were sent to guard the twenty-six-kilometer-long city wall.

God knows how the 50,000 Wei army could defend such a large area.

But Cao Pi couldn't help it.

Liu Bei's main force attacked Henan, and he couldn't send so many people in the direction of Huainan, and it would be good if there were 100,000 people in Guanzhong.

And naturally, it is impossible for these 100,000 people to all shrink in Chang'an City.

If Lantian Valley is not defended, it will be connected to Guanzhong through Wuguan Nanyang, Liu Bei will be able to take a defensive position against Henan, and the main force will take Guanzhong directly from Nanyang, and Chang'an will be even more difficult.

There are also rear grain roads and aid channels to be guarded, and a large hinterland in Henan also needs a large number of people to lay out the defense line.

Therefore, there are only 50,000 people in Chang'an City, which is almost the limit of the Wei army.

Shen Chen's large-scale attack on Chang'an put huge pressure on Zhong Xuan, and he couldn't even defend the city wall, not to mention that the camp in the city still had soldiers left.

Therefore, Jiang Wei almost entered a no-man's land, swaggering through the Yang Palace, passing through the warehouse pond through a pile of military camp tents and ordnance materials, and hurried towards the palace wall to the south.

Three hundred soldiers carried more than a dozen ladders, and they galloped under their feet, and in a few moments, they had reached the south wall.

Jiang Wei did not immediately order to climb the south wall directly with a ladder, because the ladder they brought was as long as eight or nine meters, which was used to climb Chang'an City, and if the palace wall was more than three meters high, it would be easy to be discovered.

So he first asked people to build a ladder with their hands, and he took his head to watch the situation outside.

After a while, half of his head came out of the south wall, and Jiang Wei saw that about a hundred steps away on his right hand was Yang Ke's rear army, and he himself was among them, commanding the soldiers in front of him to attack the White Tiger Gate.

The direction of the White Tiger Gate is two hundred steps away diagonally opposite his right hand, not that the palace wall is far away from the door, but that his position is far away from that side, if he goes a little west, he will be able to get closer to that side, but the chance of being found will be greater.

At this time, Yang Ke didn't know that someone was peeping at him more than a hundred steps away from his diagonal back, the battlefield was in white heat, Huo Yang in the rear was fighting with hundreds of Wei troops from the direction of Taichang Street, Wu Dang was also entangled with the enemy on the southern city wall, and the White Tiger Gate was already in danger.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Wei said without hesitation: "Go!" ”

"Up!"

The squad leaders below immediately gave the order.

At that moment, more than a dozen ladders were erected one after another, and the soldiers climbed up along the ladders, and then grabbed the edge of the palace wall with their hands, and then hung themselves on the side of the palace wall, and jumped off the wall.

Due to the distance from the battlefield and the fact that the Wei army's attention was in the direction of Baihumen, no one noticed them at all.

Jiang Wei was the first to jump down, crouched quietly on the ground, firmly grasped the steel knife in his hand with his hand, and slowly moved forward, moving forward in the direction of the battlefield.

In a few moments, more than 300 Han soldiers jumped off the palace wall.

They don't have formations.

Because the movement caused by the column charge was too great.

So Jiang Wei motioned for everyone to play, and then sneaked over quietly.

"Left and right wings, go to two more teams, up!"

Yang Ke rode on his war horse, looked at the battlefield situation in the distance, saw the enemy's left and right wings slowly shrinking, and knew that they were about to be defeated, so he decided to exert some more strength.

The terrain at the entrance was wider, which was more advantageous for the outnumbered Wei army, so a siege was obviously a good idea.

At this time, Shan Yi was also covered in blood.

His force is not weak, he had brute force in his early years, and later followed Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Gan Ning and others to learn martial arts, and his force was very strong, not much worse than Gan Ning at his peak.

But the so-called good tiger can't stand the wolf, and the good man is hard to defeat the four hands. Not everyone can rush into battle and kill more than a hundred people by himself like Xiang Yu, so in the face of several times the enemy, Shan Yi is also struggling to support, and there are more than twenty people who have fallen under him, but he is also seriously injured.

The situation on Wu Tao's side was not much better, in addition to the 2,000 Wei troops on the front, a large number of Wei troops also poured into Taichang Street and the southern city wall above the Zhangcheng Gate, and nearly 5,000 people filled the entire passage, and the Han army had obviously fallen into disadvantage at this time.

Jiang Wei led dozens of Han soldiers to slowly move forward along the walls of the palace wall, almost clinging to the enemy's back. This place was only a few dozen steps away from Yang Ke's position, and once any of the Wei soldiers turned around and found them, hundreds of Wei soldiers would immediately turn their spearheads and kill them.

He watched the enemy with bated breath, and saw two groups of Wei troops with weapons on the right side of the queue outflanking the left side of the Han army, where the Han army's defenses were getting weaker and weaker, as if with more effort, the left flank of the Han army would be crushed, and they would be victorious.

However, after these two teams passed, Yang Ke was completely exposed. Before, Yang Ke was in the middle of the rear army formation, and there were people in the front, back, left and right. But now he sent all the soldiers who pressed the formation, and only two or three hundred Wei troops were still lined up in front of him.

Jiang Wei's gaze swept to the left, and he immediately aimed at the only general he had seen before riding on horseback and wearing an iron armor helmet.

That's it!

Less than ten steps away, Jiang Wei drew his knife and rushed out as soon as he straightened his waist.

Before his body could stand up straight, the steel knife in his hand had already been picked up, drawing a large circle from his side to the top of his head, raising it high, and then leaping forward, and the ring-headed knife rushed to the top of the officer's head with a whining wind......

"Hugh!"

The sound of the steel knife whizzing through the air was hardly heard by anyone on the crowded battlefield.

Yang Ke was still shouting loudly for the soldiers to continue to attack, not realizing that there was an extra person behind him.

Just after this breath, he suddenly felt only a pain in his neck, and then he lost consciousness, his eyes were wide open, and he seemed to fly into the air.

When I watched it again, the last scene in Yang Ke's life that came to mind was a large section of his body still riding on horseback!

His head was slashed off, and the blood from his neck instantly splattered out, staining Jiang Wei's face.

"Kill!"

The knife seemed to be a signal.

The three hundred Han troops behind him roared angrily and raided the rear of the Wei army.

In an instant, the Wei army was caught off guard, and was disrupted by the Han army, and the formation collapsed instantly.

The formation of the rear army quickly affected the front army, and the Wei army became extremely chaotic, and I didn't know how many people the Han army came, but I only heard the shouts of killing in front and back, and there were swords and guns on the left and right.

"Oh no, the general is dead."

"The general was killed."

"Run."

I don't know who howled in despair, and Wei Jun immediately blew up.

The Han army in front, Wu Tao, Shan Yi and other Han troops suddenly noticed the chaos in the rear of the Wei army in the distance, and immediately perked up, shouting and asking the soldiers to charge, taking the opportunity to attack back and forth.

Jiang Wei in the back led the soldiers to be brave and unusual, shouting and echoing the front and back interception, and immediately cut the Wei army into several sections, and could not care about each other.

For a time, the 200-step long road was filled with shouts of killing, scolding, greetings, screams, and the sound of iron tools when the blades intersected......

Shan Yi rushed the hardest, regardless of the injuries on his body, and cooperated with several teammates to kill in the middle of the formation. Over there, Jiang Wei was also covered in blood, all of which were the blood of the enemy, his body was flexible, and he swung the steel knife in his hand everywhere, and one knife could take away a life, and the efficiency of killing people was very fast, and there were seven or eight lives in his hand in an instant.

The two teams of Han troops quickly chiseled through the Wei army, and after Jiang Wei and Shan Yi met in the middle of the battle, he shouted to Shan Yi: "Senior Brother Yide, you are on the left and I am on the right." ”

"Okay."

Shan Yi responded, and then from a vertical word, the two of them chiseled out a cross horizontally.

The Wei army fought and retreated, and a few petty officers shouted to regroup the formation, but Yang Ke's death and the chaos of the rear attack made it difficult for the Wei army to save the situation in the first place.

In such a situation, some Wei troops wanted to attack the enemy behind them first, some were entangled with the enemy in front, and some even simply turned around and ran.

Everyone's thoughts changed from the unanimous attack when they had assembled in the formation to suddenly become different.

This is what a general is most afraid to worry about.

The reason why the army is strong is that many people come together and twist their strength into a rope.

The battle between the two sides is like two ropes wrestling with each other, and if the fibers that make up the rope start to break first, then whoever is likely to be the first to be pulled off.

Therefore, sometimes the two armies face each other, and it is often up to them to see who cannot hold out first. For example, the Battle of Changping is the best example, if Zhao State can't withstand it, he has to lose the war.

That's the way it is now.

The Wei army was suddenly attacked from behind, and the generals were beheaded again, and no one commanded the broken rope to tie the knot again, and naturally the army was defeated.

Soon 2,000 Wei soldiers fled to their deaths, leaving only a large number of corpses and uncollected weapons and equipment all over the place.

"The injured take a break, and the uninjured come with me!"

Over there, after defeating the Wei army, Wu Tao did not stop more, but immediately took the remaining people to support Wu Dang Huo Yang and them.

Shan Yi was covered in injuries, he killed the most people, and his physical exertion was naturally the greatest, so he sat on the ground with his butt and watched Jiang Wei carry the knife in the direction of the White Tiger Gate, and also wanted to rush to the aid of several senior brothers, so he said when he passed by: "Boyo, you did a good job." ”

Jiang Wei glanced at Shan Yi and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother, I'm going over there to help Senior Brother Wu and Senior Brother Huo, Senior Brother Shan, you have a good rest first, Shijun's army will come soon, let's take Chang'an!" ”

"Okay."

Shan Yi grinned, revealing a mouth full of white teeth.

At this time, the situation on Wudang Huoyang's side was not optimistic, because more and more Wei troops were supporting.

The most terrifying thing was that a large number of cavalry had already appeared on the southern wall.

Obviously, the raid of Ma Dai, Li Yue and others outside the eastern city had been repelled by Cao Wei's cavalry, and now they hurried to the western wall to rescue.

Wu Tao and Jiang Wei immediately joined the battlefield with the remaining people who could still move, first helping Huo Yang defeat more than 1,000 people from Taichang Street in the south, and then shouting and shouting on the city wall one after another, asking the soldiers to prepare bows and crossbows to fight to the death with Cao Wei's cavalry.

It's just that it is obvious that this battle is not an evenly matched duel, there are still hundreds or even thousands of Cao Wei infantry below, and the Cao Wei cavalry on the city wall is as many as thousands.

After a bloody battle, only 2,500 or 600 of them remained, and at least a few hundred of them were wounded.

But even though they knew that there was more luck and less luck, Wu Tao and the others had to grit their teeth and persevere.

They shouted for the Han soldiers, who had already gone through a round of fighting, to quickly line up on the hundred-pace-wide wall, with shield bearers in front, crossbowmen in cover, spears and halberders in the back.

Everyone was dressed in rough clothes and sweating, looking at the Cao Wei cavalry rushing from the city wall, they all waited solemnly, waiting for the other side to rush towards them.

Soon Cao's army was getting closer and closer, and the generals at the front shouted: "Kill them all, and you must take back the city gates." ”

"Kill!"

The cavalry of the Cao army erupted in a terrifying shout.

"Ready!"

Wu Tao almost used all his strength to roar: "Release the arrow!" ”

As soon as the words fell.

"Boom Boom!"

An earth-shattering sound came from far and near, like a torrent of rolling steel, sweeping towards the Zhangcheng Gate.

The rain of arrows in the sky also happened to be swayed out at this time, and a large number of Cao cavalry fell in front.

Immediately after that, when the rain of arrows that covered the face made the Cao army's offensive stagnant, outside the gate of Zhangcheng below, countless black shadows poured into the city.

The rider at the front glanced around, and after taking a look at the situation, he pointed to the staircase of the city wall next to him and said, "Up!" ”

Then he reined in the horse and turned his horse and let the horse go up the wall.

After that, there was the second, the third, I don't know how many horses crowded up the stairs, if it weren't for the fact that the stairs were relatively gentle, they would have to be squeezed down.

"Stop shooting!"

Wu Tao, Wu Dang, Huo Yang, Deng Ai and other commanders immediately shouted.

Because they saw the cavalry coming up from the stairs below, all wearing orange-red Han army uniforms, and the banner held high in their hands had a big "Shen" character written on it.

Shijun's reinforcements have finally arrived.
