Chapter 85

Sun Ben was fighting fiercely here. It was the first time he faced Zhang Yi's soldiers head-on, and only then did he have a real understanding of these soldiers.

Before that, he had always been prejudiced against Zhang Yi's soldiers, thinking that they were inferior to his soldiers who had fought a hundred battles.But after facing it, he realized that these soldiers were indeed the elite of the world as Tai Shici said.

What was the most important thing in wars in ancient times?Some people say it's food, some people say it's a good weapon.But there is only one thing that is most important to a soldier's individual combat capability, and that is strength.

Without power, you can't kill the enemy and increase your survival rate; without power, you can't wear heavy armor and reduce the attack area; without power, you can't be valued and can only be used as cannon fodder...

This is also the relationship why the ancients admired Hercules so much.Everyone is familiar with the allusion of two peaches killing three men. Those three men are three strong men. Because of their bravery in battle, their status has reached the point where they need to be eradicated. How important are strong men?
Although Zhang Yi's soldiers are not strong men, their strength is definitely much stronger than other armies, because Zhang Yi has a more scientific training program, which is too advantageous for the army that only relies on physical talent.

Sun Ben killed two of Zhang Yi's soldiers, but he still couldn't kill the soldiers who retreated into the city.After fighting for about a quarter of an hour, there was a sudden sound of footsteps.

Sun Ben thought it was his reinforcements coming, so he shouted loudly: "Smash them to death!"

But I don't want a strange head sticking out of the trench, who is this?It looked familiar, but Sun Ben was sure that he definitely didn't know him.

The man looked at Sun Ben and grinned, "Haha, great merit is here, smash them to death for me."

There are some rolling logs and stones around the trench, but because the trench is a bit long, it is not easy to get up and down, and Sun Ben didn't leave any manpower on it before, so it took a lot of time to send people up. He thought these people were his subordinates!

In the end, it was the enemy who came!All of a sudden, countless shrubs and rocks fell on Sun Jun, killing many people in the trench.

Sun Ben was also hit by a boulder, his forehead was ruptured, and he fell into the trench, breathing in but not breathing out.

Zhang Yi's soldiers gave these Sun Jun a knife, and then quickly walked out of the trench after separating Sun Ben's head.

When he came to the man just now, he offered the head: "General, this is the head of Sun Ben."

The general glanced at it, nodded and said, "Keep it away first, and present it to the lord when I get back. Now you and I will go to Ximen together and let Mr. Li enter the city."

"promise!"

The man swung his sword and went to kill Ximen first.

All right!This person was Wei Wentong. Wei Wentong was taken care of by Sun Simiao. He had recovered from his arrow wound a few days ago, so he volunteered to ask Zhang Yi to let him enter the city.

Zhang Yi agreed. Entering the city does require a strong general. The only strong general he has now is Wei Wentong, so he can only let him in.

The tunnels dug by Zhang Yi have as many as dozens of entrances into the city.Sun Ben blocked only a few of them, and others were also blocked, but there were still many places that were not blocked, including Wei Wentong's tunnel.Wei Wentong came out of the trench and quickly helped clear Sun Jun in the trench, and then killed Sun Ben when he reached the place where the fighting was most intense.

Wei Wentong fought all the way to the west gate, because Tai Shici was in the north of the city, so Wei Wentong had no enemy in front of him.After killing two people in a row, Wei Wentong yelled: "Sun Ben's leader is here, why don't you come down sooner?"

Sun Jun saw the head behind Wei Wentong holding up the head, which was the head of their envoy Sun Ben, and his morale immediately fell.

Some of them were Sun Ben's loyalists, and they launched a desperate charge against Wei Wentong.But Wei Wentong was not afraid at all, rushed up with his men, and surrounded and killed these people.

Once the die-hards died, the others ran and surrendered, and the west gate was occupied by Wei Wentong.Wei Wentong asked people to open the city gate and let the friendly army enter the city.

Zhang Yi's soldiers entered the city one after another, Li Jing came to the top of the tower, and said to Wei Wentong, "General Wei, go to the north gate quickly, don't let Tai Shici escape."

Wei Wentong hugged Li Jing and handed Sun Bi's head to Li Jing, "Please sir, please hand over Sun Bi's head to the lord."

Li Jing made the leader, "General Wei, don't worry."

Only then did Wei Wentong lead his men to the north gate.

Tai Shici also noticed the chaos in the city at the north gate, especially when the west gate was broken. He immediately organized a group of elite soldiers and went to the prefect's mansion to look for Sun Ben.

As a result, the people in the prefect's mansion said that Sun Ben had gone out. Just as Tai Shici was about to look for it again, he heard a broken army appearing outside. Tai Shici caught one person, and only then did he know that Sun Ben had been killed.

Although Tai Shici was very angry, he saw that a large number of Zhang Yi's soldiers had entered the west gate, and knew that Nanchang had fallen. He immediately led the team of elite soldiers to the place where the horses were stored, rode on the horses, and went straight to the east gate.

After arriving at the east gate, Tai Shici ordered someone to open the city gate, and then killed him.

Zhang Yi's soldiers did not expect that the enemy would come out of the city to fight. They were caught off guard by Tai Shici and passed directly through the battlefield.

After Wei Wentong arrived at the north gate, he found that Tai Shici was no longer there, and immediately knew that Tai Shici had escaped. He immediately killed and scattered the guards, opened the city gate, and went straight to the camp.

Zhang Yi was in the camp, watching the city of Nanchang being destroyed, and he was inevitably proud of himself.The first time he fought a siege, he won a complete victory. He was still facing the general Taishi Ci. How could he be dissatisfied?

Just as he was proud, Wei Wentong ran over, "My lord, Tai Shici has escaped?"

"Run away?" Zhang Yi narrowed his eyes, "Get on the horse, let's catch up!"

Wei Wentong got on his horse immediately, and Zhang Yi and Zhang Yi led the cavalry to the east.

Zhang Yi has hundreds of war horses under his command, which Zhang Yi saved with great difficulty.These war horses were all seized by him from the confiscated homes of powerful families in Jiujiang County. They are usually very precious, but they have to be used at this time.

The reason why he wanted to pursue eastward was not because Zhang Yi knew that Taishi Ci must have escaped from the east, but because he had planned to attack the west gate first.Since Wei Wentong fought out from the north gate, he must have occupied the west gate, so Taishi Ci could only escape from the east gate and south gate, so Zhang Yi walked from the east gate and first checked to see if Taishi Ci escaped from here. If not, You can just chase south.

As a result, when he got outside the east gate, he saw that Tai Shici had already entered the camp in the east. If Zhang Yi played for a while, Tai Shici might have already killed him.

Wei Wentong immediately patted his horse and went straight to Taishi Ci, "Taishi Cixiu is leaving, and Wei Wentong is coming!"
