There was a cruel glint in Sosuke's eyes.

He knew that victory was within reach.

Therefore, he ordered the whole army to launch a final attack, and it was necessary to completely take the city of Lanzhou before dark.

With the order of Wanyan Sosuke, the enemy launched an even more fierce attack.

Zhang Jun tried his best, but he was already injured in many places, and blood stained his robe and armor red.

However, there will be a time when manpower will run out.

Under the onslaught of the enemy, the defenders fell one by one.

Zhang Jun and Xu You were also seriously injured and could not fight again, and in the end, in the midst of a tragic cry, the city of Lanzhou was completely lost.

When the last rays of sunlight disappeared into the sky, the entire city of Lanzhou had become a dead silence.

Zhang Jun and Xu You lay among the ruins, looking at the starlight that was fading in the sky.

He thought he was going to die, and when he looked at the stars in the sky, his heart was full of unwillingness.

He hadn't competed with Yue Fei yet, so it was a pity that he died here like this.

After Yan Zongfu entered the city, he stood at the head of the city, overlooking the city of Lanzhou, which had been destroyed beyond recognition by the war, and couldn't help laughing.

He finally took the city, which was his victory and the victory of the Dajin Kingdom.

He turned to Liu Yu beside him and said, "From now on, this Lanzhou City will be mine." You have to govern this place well and let it become a solid backing for the Dajin Kingdom. ”

Liu Yu hurriedly patted his ass and said: "Daqi must be closely linked with Dajin Guo to jointly resist the attack of the Southern Song Dynasty." He was secretly proud in his heart, although he didn't contribute much in this battle, but he was able to take the opportunity to tie up with Wanyan Sosuke, which was also a good thing for him.

At this moment, the soldiers carried Zhang Jun over.

Wanyan Zongfu looked at this Southern Song Dynasty general who once gave him a headache, but now he has become his subordinate, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

He walked up to Zhang Jun and said mockingly: "Zhang Jun, Zhang Jun, weren't you very arrogant before?" How did you become like this now? How do you feel about being a prisoner now? ”

Zhang Jun glared at him, sprayed a mouthful of spit on his face, and said coldly: "If you want to kill or kill you, if I Zhang Jun frowns, I will not be a hero." ”

Wanyan Zongfu was angered by his actions, and he raised the horsewhip in his hand to whip Zhang Jun. but

At this moment, Liu Yu stepped forward and said: "The general is angry, although this Zhang Jun is stubborn, we can still use him to threaten the Southern Song court." It is better to imprison him and torture him slowly. ”

Wanyan Zongfu thought about it and felt that Liu Yu was reasonable. He put away his whip and said to his soldiers, "Take him down and keep him under strict guard, and don't let him die." With that, he turned and left.

Wen Boyuan led the army, marched rapidly in the night, and finally met Xu You and hundreds of remnants of the defeated generals who escaped by luck at a distance of twenty miles from the city of Lanzhou.

Xu You was covered in blood and exhausted, but when he saw Wen Boyuan's arrival, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, as if he saw hope.

He struggled forward, and said in a hoarse and excited voice, "General Wen, you are finally here!" The city of Lanzhou has been lost, the life and death of General Zhang Jun are unknown, and the enemy army is burning and looting in the city! ”

Wen Boyuan was shocked when he heard this, he knew the importance of Lanzhou City, once it was lost, the enemy army could drive straight in, threatening the safety of the Great Song Dynasty. he

Hurriedly helped Xu You up and asked, "How is the situation of the enemy army?" How many centaurs are there? ”

Xu You replied: "The enemy army originally had 300,000 horses, and after some siege battles, there should be about 200,000. They are well-armed and extremely combat-ready, and our men and horses simply cannot resist them. ”

Speaking of this, a trace of grief and helplessness flashed in his eyes.

Wen Boyuan's eyes were cold, looking at the starlight in the sky, his heart was full of anger and determination.

He knew that the battle was going to be extremely tough, but he could not back down.

He took a deep breath and ordered: "Pass the order, camp in place, and march to Lanzhou early tomorrow morning!" ”

With Wen Boyuan's order, the soldiers were busy setting up tents and preparing meals; The generals sat around to discuss tomorrow's battle plan.

The whole camp was brightly lit and full of people; The atmosphere was unusually tense and orderly.

Wen Boyuan sat alone in the tent, thinking about tomorrow's battle.

Xu You also came to the tent, and he reported in detail to Wen Boyuan about the loss of Lanzhou and Zhang Jun's situation.

A trace of tears flashed in his eyes when he said that Zhang Jun was captured, "General Zhang would rather die than give in, he is our pride!" ”

Wen Boyuan stood up, walked in front of Xu You, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Xu has worked hard to join the army!" Rest assured, we will defeat the enemy, recapture the city, and rescue General Zhang! ”

"I am willing to fight to the death with the general!"

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Wen Boyuan ordered to pull out the camp and march into the city of Lanzhou, and the army marched to the battlefield in a mighty way.

Wen Boyuan led a tired and high-spirited army and finally arrived at the city of Lanzhou. At the head of the city, Wanyan Zongfu had already learned of the arrival of reinforcements from the Great Song Dynasty, and he ordered the whole army to set up a formation at the gate of the city, ready to meet the battle.

Wen Boyuan rode a war horse, wearing armor, and glanced at the enemy army in front of him with a grim expression. The army behind him was also in formation, and the soldiers were armed with weapons and their eyes were determined, waiting for the order to attack.

At this time, Wen Boyuan suddenly mockingly shouted at Wanyan Zongfu at the head of the city: "Wanyan Zongfu, you savage barbarian, have you ever seen this formation?" ”

Wanyan Zongfu was stunned when he heard this, and he stared closely at the military formation behind Wen Boyuan, trying to see the mystery. However, he was not proficient in the Central Plains' Art of War formation, and he felt a little confused and uneasy about this unfamiliar formation.

Seeing this, Wen Boyuan sneered and continued: "It seems that you barbarian don't know this formation. Let me tell you, this is called the Bagua Array, and it is a mastery of my Great Song Dynasty. If you have the guts, come and charge and see if you can break it! ”

Wanyan Zongfu was shocked when he heard this, he knew that since Wen Boyuan dared to provoke himself so arrogantly, then this gossip array must have its power. However, as a general of the Jin Kingdom, he naturally cannot show weakness in front of others. So he took a deep breath and ordered loudly: "The whole army obeys the order and prepares to charge!" ”

With Wanyan Sosuke's order given, the enemy troops at the gate of the city began to move forward slowly.

They were numerous and well-armed; The pace is uniform and vigorous; It was like an unstoppable torrent that rushed towards the military formation of the Great Song Dynasty.

Wanyan Zongfu stared at the iron wall behind Wen Boyuan, his brows were tightly locked, and his heart was full of doubts. He didn't know this complex formation, but he could feel the compelling momentum emanating from that array, as if an invisible force was quietly condensing.

However, at this moment, Liu Yu, who had been standing beside Wanyan Zongfu, suddenly changed his face. His eyes were fixed on the formation, and a hint of horror and disbelief flashed in his eyes. This formation, he actually knows!

Liu Yu had gone deep into the Central Plains and had many confrontations with the Song army, so he had a deep understanding of this gossip array. He knew that this formation seemed simple, but in fact it was infinitely varied, and once he fell into it, it was like entering a labyrinth and it was difficult to get out. What's even more terrifying is that this formation can give full play to the advantages of the Song army's infantry, making the cavalry rushing into a desperate situation.
