Chapter 225: The Seventh Battle of the White Tengjiang River

In countless post-mortem analyses in the future, Le Jin and Chen Zhi agreed that LΓΌ Meng's siege army was perfect in terms of timing, arrangement, and strategy and tactics. Whether it was attacking at sunrise, or attacking through tunnels, or Jiang Xin's sudden turn to attack the city gate, every step was done just right.

However, Lu Meng did not leave himself room to deal with variables, and what happened at the city gate was a variable that he could not imagine at all.

In this offensive and defensive battle, the last thing he should do is to mobilize a large number of siege troops behind Jiang Xin when Jiang Xin is about to break through the city gate.

For these Jiaozhi soldiers, Jiang Xin's death in battle was not an unacceptable thing, even if there was a row of crossbow machines in the city gate, or hundreds of cavalry rushed out, they would not have a psychological breakdown.

But what they are facing now is something unknown.

The explosion and smoke exceeded the intensity of the war in this era, and surpassed the cognition of everyone, including the coach Lu Meng.

Jiang Xin and those siege soldiers, they were all covered in full armor, especially Jiang Xin, who could be said to be armed to the teeth, otherwise Lu Meng would not have let him take the lead in the charge.

In this era, this kind of armor is very difficult to die, and it is not easy to get injured, who would have thought that Jiang Xin would die so inexplicably.

When those soldiers saw Jiang Xin's people being torn apart by the bombing, thrown high on the top of the doorway, and falling down hard, everyone felt a chill down their spines.

The unknown is the most terrifying, whether it is miracles or witchcraft, it makes no difference to these soldiers.

All the rewards and incentives are useless, and there is only one theory left in their minds, that is, if they rush forward, they will also die, and the death will be extremely miserable.

I don't know who was the first to turn around, in short, the idea of escaping for their lives spread instantly, and more and more people chose to turn around.

They weren't those Jiangdong elites, they were just small soldiers under Jiaozhi Taishou who hadn't fought a big battle.

Compared with those strawberry soldiers in Cangwu, they are stronger than the Cangwu soldiers because they have fought with the barbarians of Jiuzhen County and Rinan County, but in the face of this kind of scene, there is still only one word to escape.

It's just the death of a general, not like this, after all, Jiang Xinfei is a general who has been training them. But the tenacity of the Guangxin defenders, coupled with the fear of the unknown, forced them to flee.

The defeat was like a mountain.

First, the attacking soldiers on Jiang Xin's side were defeated, and this rout quickly infected the frontal attacking soldiers.

Those soldiers who were still insisting on attacking the city under the command of Han Dang were shocked when they suddenly found their colleagues behind them fleeing.

Han Dang is also a perennial general, and when he found the signs, he immediately began to suppress them, and the team composed of the Jiangdong Army mercilessly killed several soldiers who tried to escape, but what made him unacceptable was that more soldiers chose to flee.

After all, the number of overseers under Han Dang is scarce, and they can't be attacked for a long time, and the soldiers besieging the city know very well that the siege is a dead end, and there is a way to survive when they turn back.

"Kill!"

Han Dang raised his sword and hacked a deserter to death, he immediately found that he couldn't stop it, and the retreating soldiers poured back like a tide, and with the three or two soldiers under him, he couldn't kill them at all.

"Suffered!"

Han Dang's eyes were red, and he shouted through gritted teeth, asking the officers who came from Jiaozhi to return to their troops, but a few of those officers were clever, and they fled first.

"Ziming, Ziming!"

Han Dang turned around, but saw Lu Meng standing on his horse, looking at the retreating troops in disbelief, but he didn't seem to have any idea, and he didn't know how to face it at all.

He had obviously done his best, why was this happening, why was the city that had been broken not long ago, but now it had become a huge wall that he could not overcome.

"Kill, kill! These deserters deserve to die! ”

Lu Meng's eyes were redder than Han Dang's, and he held Zhou Yu's saber and slashed at one person with one sword.

Han Dang blocked his sword with a "dang" moment, and said angrily: "Ziming, are you crazy, this is our Jiangdong soldier!" ”

Only then did Lu Meng realize that what he wanted to kill just now was Jiangdong's own people, who were there to restrain the troops.

"Yigong, I lost ......"

Lu Meng closed his eyes in pain, as proud as he was, he really couldn't accept that he had been laying out for so long, but he lost easily.

Han Dang gritted his teeth, wanting to say a few heavy words, and considering that Lu Meng was young after all, it was already extraordinary to have such a talent, but in the end he just said "hey" and didn't say anything else.

"Quickly restrain your subordinates, how much can you gather, let's go and make peace with the governor first!"

Han Dang ordered the Jiangdong Army, asked them to surround Lu Meng, and quickly left here.

He rode a few steps on horseback and looked back at Guangxin City.

The place where the explosion just now, the black hole of the city gate hole, was like a powerful ghost devouring light, and no one dared to take a step forward.

This city, after all, let 30,000 of them die here.

With 3,000 defending 30,000 and dealing with ten times the enemy's army, it was a great victory, and the defenders at the head of the city must have been overjoyed.

Han Dang sighed again, poor Jiang Xin fought all his life, but died in the demon law, Ling Tong went deep into the city, life and death were uncertain, and the commander of the three of them, Lu Meng, was not willing to give up, and was about to collapse, this road army, from soldiers to generals, was all finished.

"Hey!"

Han Dang exhaled, his voice was full of resentment and melancholy, and finally depressedly took Lu Meng to gather the troops.

……

At the head of the city, Le Jin looked at the retreating enemy army dumbfounded, he was indeed happy, but he didn't know why this was the case at all, and his face was full of joy and doubt.

Chen Zhi communicated more with Ah Si and knew more, he had heard Ah Si say that if the city gate was broken, there would be one last weapon in Beifu to defend the city.

But he didn't expect that this thing would be so powerful, not only killing Jiang Xin on the spot, but also directly leading to the rout of the Jiangdong army.

He heard Ah Si say that in fact, the final weapon of Beifu was far from being successfully developed, and what could be taken now was only a defective product, and the power was not great.

Maybe again, Jiang Dongjun knows what this is, and he won't be afraid.

But now this time, Chen Zhi realized that this was an excellent opportunity to fight back, and he couldn't just let the other party escape.

He turned his head to look at Le Jin, and just as he wanted to speak, Le Jin had already ordered his troops.

There were 3,000 defenders of the city, and there were not many cavalry, but Lejin was ready to launch all the cavalry in pursuit.

The time to kill has arrived.

From sunrise to the beginning of the siege, it has only been more than half an hour, and the 30,000 Jiaozhi soldiers led by Lu Meng have been defeated and killed.

In this way, Cangwu County governs Guangxin, and Jiaozhi County governs Longbian, all of which are peaceful.

Only the main battlefield of the Baiteng River remained, and the victory or defeat was not scored.

There, several fronts became meat grinding machines.

In the far west, when Xu Sheng heard Xing Daorong's name, he was neither startled nor scoffed, he just brandished his long knife and faced Xing Daorong.
