Otherwise, Ma Yongcheng didn't say anything, but just glanced at Liu Ming meaningfully, turned the horse's head, led the escort troops, and headed in the direction of Liu Jin.

Liu Ming looked at the direction in which Ma Yongcheng and the others left, and after sighing heavily, he also took the remaining 7,000 cavalry troops to join the siege sequence.

For a time, this small military fort was besieged by nearly 60,000 troops, and the rebel soldiers in the fort, although they forgot to die, were unable to make up for the gap between the two armies.

Every section of the wall of this small military fort has changed hands in the repeated struggle between the two sides. Every inch of land is full of blood, and many soldiers have been exhausted from killing in the afternoon until now, but they are still wielding weapons and fighting frantically until they are cut down.

After Liu Ming led the arrival of 7,000 cavalry, it did not have any great effect at all. After all, this is a cavalry army, and if you want to talk about field battles, it is naturally an iron-cast male division, and tens of thousands of infantry troops are afraid that they will be dragged down by the enemy's cavalry without the cover of cavalry.

The second is that this military fort occupies a small area, and it can accommodate nearly 70,000 people to fight, which has reached the limit, and when these 7,000 cavalry arrive, there is no place to even intervene.

And Liu Ming didn't dare to really let the seven thousand cavalry rest behind, after all, on the watchtower in the distance, Liu Jinke was still watching.

Therefore, Liu Ming ordered the 7,000 cavalry to get off their horses, take their sabers, and join the siege sequence on foot. And in order to prevent this cavalry from being bad at attacking the city, he also changed the 7,000 cavalry to the battlefield of attacking Jiang Han's team and the black-clothed team.

However, all the soldiers of the encirclement and suppression of Jiang Han's squad and the men in black squad were transferred to attack the military fort. In his mind, even if these 7,000 cavalry troops are not good at land battles, they can deal with small groups of enemies that are not 700, but there should be no problem.

It's just that he didn't know that it was because of his adjustment that the team that Jiang Han and the man in black merged survived. These cavalry soldiers were more adept at charging in groups, rather than besieging and killing the enemy with tight battle formations like an infantry army.

Therefore, after being replaced by the soldiers of the cavalry, Jiang Han and the man in black, who were originally overwhelmed by the enemy's infantry army, were relieved.

They also knew that they could not defeat this cavalry army very easily, otherwise the enemy's commander would only be afraid that he would mobilize infantry troops to attack them and others.

He and the others have completed the task of destroying the siege vehicle, successfully dragged the 7,000 cavalry into the battlefield, and nailed the 7,000 cavalry to themselves, which can be regarded as an excellent completion of the task.

As for the rest, there is no way to do it. Therefore, Jiang Han also commanded the man in black and the brothers who were less than 400 years old together with the person surnamed Xiang, and fought and retreated, retreating towards the edge of the city wall.

The 7,000 cavalry seemed to be numerous, but they had not practiced the battle formation of the infantry army, so they did not effectively intercept Jiang Han and the others, and could only follow Jiang Han's team and move towards the city wall.

In this way, the two armies fought hard, and they fought for another hour, the sun had gradually sunset, although the imperial army was numerous, and there were good generals like Liu Ming to deploy and command, but there was no way to make an effective breakthrough.

On the high watchtower, Liu Jin, who had been watching the tragic battle between the two armies, couldn't help but be angry at this time, and slapped on the guardrail of the tower, shaking the entire tower.

"How can this be reasonable! Zhu Ningjiao, this guy only has an army of about 20,000, but he has been able to hold on from the afternoon until now, and we have not broken through the military fort, what a really angry old man!" Liu Jin said through gritted teeth, he saw that the sun was about to set, and he knew that if he didn't make a breakthrough, today's efforts would be in vain.

After all, attacking the city at night, but the defending side has a great advantage, and it is a last resort, but it is absolutely impossible to attack the city at night. Although Liu Jin has never learned the art of war, he still understands this truth!

"Liu Gong! The sun is about to go down, or Mingjin will be able to collect his troops, today's battle, even if they don't break through their defenses, I'm afraid they will be exhausted, we will attack the city early tomorrow, they will definitely not be able to stop it!" Ma Yongcheng suggested.

"The old man is unwilling!" Liu Jin's eyes shot a terrifying light, as if he wanted to choose someone to devour, looking at the military fort in the distance, with a hideous face.

"But ......" Ma Yongcheng was about to continue the exhortation, but unexpectedly, a vigorous and powerful horn sounded, and then a burst of loud singing came from the rear.

This song is heroic and powerful, and it is vigorous and far-reaching. When I first heard it, I still didn't know why, but when the song came, everyone felt a little enthusiastic, like a group of athletes, running happily on the grassland.

Ma Yongcheng and Liu Jin both changed their faces, glanced at each other, and then looked behind them, and saw the position of the intersection of heaven and earth in the distance.

"It's over! Liu Ming guessed right!" Ma Yongcheng thought of Liu Ming's speculation in an instant, and immediately his face was like dirt, and he said tremblingly, "This must be King An's reinforcements, looking at the scale of smoke and dust, but there are no less than 30,000 horsemen." This is the wilderness again, our army has been fighting for a long time, and we have no back to suffer from the enemy, but we are afraid of danger!"

"Shut up!" Although Liu Jin's face was not good-looking, he was calmer than Ma Yongcheng after all, and immediately shouted below, "The guards below form a dense formation to prevent the enemy behind from rushing into formation, and inform Liu Ming at another speed, within a quarter of an hour, put the army in order, and come to the decisive battle with the enemy reinforcements!"

The guards below also heard the loud sound of military songs, and even saw the smoke and dust that covered the sky and the sun, and their hearts were terrified.

At this time, after listening to Liu Jin's order, the commander of the guard immediately ordered the five thousand guards to form a dense formation, lined up near the tower, and nervously watched the attack of a large number of cavalry troops in the distance.

At this moment, Liu Ming was already a little desperate, this time he forcibly attacked the city, and tens of thousands of troops were piled together, but in fact, not only could not give full play to the advantage of troops, but made his army unable to stretch out, which made it convenient for the rebel army.

The closer he got to sunset, the more panicked he became, worried that this siege would not succeed, but he would have to go back to face Liu Jin's criticism. The loud military song sounded, and he reacted immediately, and inexplicably thought of his previous speculation in his heart, King An's reinforcements were only coming.

At that moment, he didn't care about anything else, so he sent his personal guards to the commanding heights as soon as possible to check the direction of the military song and the number of enemy troops coming to help.

It's just that before the guards have left, there is a drum beat from the rear, informing him to regroup his formation as soon as possible and prepare to meet the enemy. Even among these signals, the herald who issued the signal consciously informed Liu Jin of the 30,000 cavalry they had speculated.

At this moment, Liu Ming stood stunned on the spot, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time! The 30,000 cavalry army, even if his 70,000 army was intact and its morale was strong, it was still a great opponent of his own.

At this moment, the morale and fighting spirit of the army have reached their peak, and most of the soldiers are exhausted. In terms of cavalry, they either dismounted and used as an infantry army, or they had already died in battle, and for a while, they were afraid that it would be difficult to form an effective cavalry army.

In terms of the infantry army, many formations have been disrupted, and the arrows of the crossbowmen have also been used a lot, not to mention that they can resist the enemy's charging battle with the crossbowmen for a while, but I am afraid that it will be extremely difficult to find a team of 1,000 crossbowmen.

According to the order of the drum and flag, Liu Jin actually ordered that he should assemble a large army to meet the enemy within a quarter of an hour.

At that moment, Liu Ming smiled bitterly, and couldn't help but complain in his heart: "I knew now, why did I ...... it in the first place?"

It's just that complaining is complaining, and Liu Ming also knows that he and Liu Jin are really grasshoppers on the same rope. If this battle is lost, Liu Jin's prestige will be sharply reduced, and he will not be able to effectively and completely control the government, and his own general army will also be the end, and even worse, his head will be removed.

So Liu Ming had to keep issuing orders to gather as many troops as possible, and prepare to fight to the death with the enemy reinforcements that were about to arrive and could clearly be seen in the terrifying dust.

It's a pity that although he assembled very quickly, this imperial army could be reassembled in a hurry. Therefore, when Zilong led the first wave of cavalry, singing loud military songs with a brazen attitude, and directly tearing Liu Jin's 5,000 elite guards apart with a devastating attitude, Liu Ming was able to gather less than 8,000 people.

Among these 8,000 people, there are crossbowmen, infantry troops, and cavalry troops, but they are all incomplete, and it is difficult to form large-scale combat effectiveness for a while.

Seeing that the five thousand elite guards were directly torn apart by the Hetao cavalry led by Zilong, and then kept clashing back and forth, and died tragically in the hooves of Zilong's army, Liu Ming knew that he was afraid that he had lost this battle.

On the side of the military fort, after the military song sounded, Wan'er knew that Zilong had launched an attack, and immediately told King An of the speculation.

At this moment, most of the soldiers of the rebel army no longer have the strength to fight, and they are fighting with one breath. When this good news arrived, King An announced it without hesitation.

This time, it was like a thirsty person who had touched a clear spring, and all of a sudden he was a little refreshed. The next moment, as soon as everyone's morale rebounded a little, Zilong led the Hetao cavalry to directly break Liu Jin's escort formation, and repeatedly rushed to kill those guards, obviously it was only a matter of time before they were all killed.

All the rebel brothers who saw this scene burst into unprecedented cheers, and one by one they all had the strength to come from nowhere, picked up their weapons, and repelled the enemy in front of them.
