Chapter Eighty-Eight: There Are No Good People in Luoyang City (To the Alliance Leader, I Am a Book-Eating Beast)

On the chaotic battlefield, Zhang Fang laughed cruelly.

When he first saw Shangguan Si's general flag, he almost thought he was wrong.

Who is Shangguan Si, who is also worthy of commanding tens of thousands of soldiers and horses?

I still remember that at the end of last year, Shangguan Si, who was a staff member of the Puppet Mansion, was transferred to the forbidden army, known as the "general", but the number of troops never exceeded 5,000, and the command was clumsy.

His skills, but Erer.

Fang Cai urgently tortured the prisoners, and knew that Shangguan was already in charge of the city, which made Zhang Fang even more ridiculous.

At the same time, an ambition also arose, perhaps the cavalry could be sent to seize the door first with lightning speed, and try to see if Luoyang could be taken.

As soon as the thought came to mind, I couldn't suppress it.

The generals were even more elated, shouting to enter the city.

They are scarce of the money of the high-ranking families.

They want the treasures of the palace.

They want to see the once unattainable noblewomen ravaged with tears under them.

It's hard to control your emotions just thinking about it.

The robbery at the beginning of the year ended hastily, but it wasn't fun!

As a result, the proposal to seize the city was fully passed, and there was not a trace of opposition.

Zhang Fang didn't ink either, and sent Zhi Fu to gather the cavalry on the spot and rush in the direction of the Great Xia Gate.

At that time, the fastest rout had already rushed to the vicinity of the city gate, and the guards at the gate wound their bows and crossbows, and they all brushed to look at Shangguan Pu.

This person is the younger brother of the Shangguan Si clan, and he leads 2,000 people to wait in the door, ready to answer at any time.

Shangguan Si made it very clear that if he did not come back, he would not be able to close the city gates, lest he be "harmed by villains".

Shangguan Pu understood and knew that his brother did not completely trust Wang Yan, Mi Huang, Man Fen and others, and was worried that they would take the opportunity to close the city gate and seize Luoyang.

He resolutely carried out the order, and when everyone looked at him anxiously, even with a warning, he turned a deaf ear and looked out of the city.

The rumbling sound of horses' hooves approached.

Anyone with a little experience knows that it was the enemy army who sent out cavalry to try to take the gate with a great victory.

"General, if you are rushed by the rout, you can't maintain any formation, then it's chaos...... someone couldn't help but stand up.

Shangguan Pu hesitated slightly.

And in this hesitation, the first group of routs had already rushed in, scrambling for the road, almost crowding the city gate.

"General, you can't close the door, let go of the arrows." Someone else urged.

Shangguan Pu's face was extremely entangled, and it was always difficult to make up his mind.

After a moment's delay, the surging rout had already disrupted the crossbowmen and swept backwards.

"It's over......" Shangguan Pu's head was blank, and surrounded by his own soldiers, he stumbled backwards and fled.

******

When Shao Xun saw Mi Huang, the three thousand soldiers of the lower army were already ready to stop and wait for orders in the camp.

"Shangguan Si saw that the enemy was coming from afar, and the troops were weak, so he bullied the crowd, led more than 10,000 men and horses on the spot, went out of the city through the Great Xia Gate, and fought with the thieves. It looked like he was going to be defeated, and he didn't know how many people he could come back, so Xiao Langjun quickly led the army out of the city and entered the Great Xia Gate to defend the palace. Mi Huang was sweating profusely and said in a hurry.

"Why don't you close the gates?" Shao Xun asked as he gave the officers an order to form a team.

The 3,000 soldiers, who had long been ready to go, jumped up, took the building as a unit, and after forming a rough team, they went out of the city in batches.

"Shangguansi's people are guarding the Great Xia Gate, and they can't close it." Actually, Mi Huang really thought about this problem, and came to the conclusion that Shangguan Si was not so stupid and had already made arrangements.

"What does the Governor want to do?" Shao Xun was already neatly draped, and tied a red forehead, and asked solemnly.

"Lang Jun can decide himself." Mi Huang said categorically: "You go to the Great Xia Gate first, and I will supervise the rest of the people to follow." ”

"Okay." Shao Xun originally wanted to ask him if he dared to take a risk, but seeing Mi Huang say this, he stopped talking nonsense, and surrounded by the soldiers of the teaching team, he turned over and rushed out.

Kim Yong City was very close to the Great Xia Gate, and it was there in a few moments.

When he saw the routed soldiers who were rushing into the city, Shao Xun's face also changed.

The plan can't keep up with the changes, and now all the plans are in vain, so we have to stop the chaos first.

"Crossbowmen step forward, shoot!" He decisively gave the order.

The former owner, Li Chong, realized the seriousness of the problem.

Without Shao Xun's orders, he immediately ordered the crossbowmen to step forward and fire crossbow arrows to stop the rout.

At the same time, the archers expanded to 200 were divided into three parts, 100 people cooperated with the crossbowmen in the front, and the remaining 100 people were divided into two ways, trying to climb to the top of the buildings on both sides and shoot condescendingly.

This will not only stop the rout, but also kill and damage the enemy forces that may follow.

His head is very clear, and it is very rare to be able to draw inferences.

"Yu An!" Shao Xun shouted.

"The servant is here."

"Take a hundred people, search Roman carts and ox carts, and pull them all to the street to build a fortress."

"Yes."

After instructing Yu An, Shao Xun called a messenger again, ordering him to return to Kim Yong City immediately, and asked Mi Du to come with a rejection horse.

When everything was arranged, he drew his heavy sword and ordered the sword and shield men to take the lead, followed by the spearmen, and waited for them.

Chen Yougen was wearing heavy armor and surrounded Shao Xun with a hundred elite soldiers of the teaching team.

In the previous battles in Luoyang, Shao Sima was wounded in five places, which was shocking.

It can't go on like this.

Who knows if a stray arrow will take Shao Sima's life next time? This was unacceptable to him, and he was still waiting for Shao Sima to fulfill his promise and divide the land among the brothers.

"Woo......" a dull horn sounded.

And with it came a dense barrage of arrows.

The routs that were surging backwards fell to the ground like Artemisia grass encountering a gale.

Crossbowmen are generally old men.

They watched all this with indifference, and shot non-stop.

On either side of them, a squad of foot soldiers had stepped forward with spears, stabbing to death the rout who had survived the death, and slowing the pace of the rout, buying the crossbowmen more time.

A moment later, some more archers climbed onto the roof. They spent their time with their bows and arrows, occasionally shooting a rout, but most of the time they were staring at the gates.

"Mi Huang, you can't die well." In the midst of the rout, Shangguan Pu shouted angrily.

Shao Xun noticed him, handed the heavy sword to Chen Yougen, and then drew his bow and arrows.

"There are no good people in Luoyang City." He sighed softly.

As soon as the bowstring was loosened, the long arrow broke through the air and hit the door of Shangguan Pumian.

The rain of arrows is still being cast, and the corpses are strewn all over the streets, and the blood is flowing like a river.

The people in front fell, and the people behind trampled on the corpses, stumbling forward.

Some people were carried away by long arrows, and for a moment they were not dead, still struggling to get up, trying to escape for their lives.

There were people crawling on the ground, wailing and weeping, begging the brethren who had left the army to let him pass.

There were also people who desperately crashed into the houses on both sides, trying to dodge.

But it was useless, the crossbowmen were like enforcing the discipline of night management in the barracks, and those who ran and collided with each other were shot and killed, regardless of whether they were friends or enemies.

People are fragile, and there will be a moment when blood will be exhausted.

After being met head-on by the crossbowmen, killing and wounding hundreds of people, the rout finally came to their senses and stopped rushing back.

Shao Xun called the messenger and gave an order.

After a while, more than a dozen people climbed onto the rooftops on both sides, shouting loudly.

"Running around, don't kill!"

"Turn back and kill the enemy, and the festival level will be rewarded!"

"The cavalry is in a hurry, and the horsepower is not enough!"

"The streets are narrow, just in time to kill the enemy!"

Under their repeated shouts, the routs look at me, I look at you, and they are at a loss.

In the end, some of the veterans of the Chinese army gritted their teeth and turned around, the spearmen took the initiative to step forward, and the rest cooperated with each other, quietly waiting for the judgment of fate.

The defeated soldiers who were not from the Chinese army were infected by them, and they also trembled and looked for weapons on the ground, preparing to fight with the Western soldiers.

The sound ......of horses' hooves was close to my ears.

In an instant, the first dozens of horsemen had rushed in.

When he saw the dense spears, he was surprised, but he didn't have time to slow down, so he crashed into them.

For a while, people turned on their backs.

The cavalry of the Western Army that rushed to the front landed one after another, and the people behind hurriedly slowed down, but behind them, more cavalry rushed in, all huddled together.

For a time, in the narrow streets and the city gates, the war horses neighed and became a mess.

"Kill the thief!" The archers on the roofs on both sides fired one after another, staring at the cavalry sitting on horseback, with obvious targets, and called them one by one.

The rout was relieved.

Those who had the audacity could directly take spears and stab the cavalrymen from their horses.

Others took knives and cut off the legs of horses, and when the painful horses lifted the cavalry off their backs, the others who had been waiting for a long time stepped forward and slashed the cavalrymen who had not had time to get up to death.

Unfortunately, at this time, the bilateral stirrup and the high bridge saddle had not yet been invented, and the legs and waist of the cavalry could not effectively borrow strength, so it was very difficult to fight, and their own goals were large, so they fell to the ground one after another and were hacked to death by the rout.

It is almost a copy of the battle of Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan Jieqiao - the cavalry in front was killed and injured by bows and crossbows in a large area, and the corpses of people and horses formed obstacles, and the cavalry behind was still rushing forward, but they couldn't raise their speed, and as a result, they were indiscriminately chopped and killed by Yuan Shao's intueraries, and they were defeated and lost.

Now it means a little bit.

The city gate cave was full of cavalry of the Western Army.

Someone realized that something was wrong, dismounted directly, and tried to fight on foot.

Others sat stupidly on horseback, urging loudly.

The defeated soldiers killed more than 100 horsemen in a row, and their morale gradually rose, shouting and rushing to the city gate, spear stabbing, ring head knife beheading, and even some people cast cold arrows to sneak attack, and the cooperation became more and more proficient.

Infantry, how could there ever be such an opportunity to kill cavalry so easily? What you didn't say, just kill, they're not opponents!

"Drumming march!" Shao Xun retrieved the heavy sword again and ordered.

"Knock knock knock ......" drum rumbles.

The soldiers of the Kingdom Army lined up in a neat array, holding up Senhan's spears, and ran quickly in small steps, heading straight towards the Great Xia Gate.

The archers also converged one after another.

There was no one to command, and they would shoot them one by one in small groups, aiming at the enemy horsemen who were still sitting on horseback.

The enemy cavalry outside the city seemed to realize that something was wrong, and they turned their horses and retreated.

The enemy cavalry in the city screamed in terror and tried to escape, but there was no chance.

At this point in the battle, there was no longer any suspense, it was almost a one-sided massacre.
