Three Kingdoms Eschatology

Before that, there was a small cavalry team mixed with twenty or thirty chariots constantly harassing and attacking them.However, as long as the tiger and leopard cavalry are dispatched, and the pikemen form a dense pike phalanx at the end of the team, this Liang army can be easily scared off and dispersed.

This time, it was the same for the Wei army. The three thousand spearmen formed a dense square formation of six and fifty rows of spears, and the two thousand tiger and leopard cavalry were divided into two groups, outflanking from the left and right wings to the direction of the sound of horseshoes.None of these 5000 people expected that this was the last moment of their lives.

The two thousand tiger and leopard riders had just seen the figure of the opponent's warriors, and the heavy arrows rushed towards them with the sound of wind.Amidst the howling, neighing and screaming of the horses, the tiger and leopard riders were shot off their horses one after another.A rider's war horse was shot through the breastplate by a heavy arrow, turning him sideways under the saddle, and the rider skillfully turned forward to relieve the momentum.When he knelt on one knee and was about to stand up, he saw the figure of the longbow chariot flanking the tiger and leopard cavalry.At this time, another tiger and leopard rider couldn't hold back his footsteps, and directly trampled him to the ground, rushing past.

The two thousand tiger and leopard riders were almost completely lost under the sniper fire of the five hundred longbow chariots, and the few remaining survivors fled in panic.At this time, Liang Jun's two thousand light cavalry flying feathers rushed up, passed through the gap in the longbow chariot, and continued to outflank the two wings of Wei Jun's long spear formation. arrows.

The overwhelming dense arrows quickly disintegrated the formation of the long spear formation, and the large number of deaths in a short period of time completely drained the morale of these long archers. Some of them even dropped their long spears and turned around to flee.Liang Jun's Qingqi Feiyu hadn't even gotten close to these pikemen, and the latter had completely collapsed.Everyone started to flee, spreading their legs and sprinting backwards.

But their two legs couldn't be as fast as Liang Jun's four legs, and naturally they couldn't be as fast as the two wheels of the chariot.The arrows still kept coming, turning them into corpses on the ground continuously.What was more terrifying than the arrows was that Liang Jun's [-] heavy cavalry also chased after them. The mace in their hands was like a death scythe across the crops, knocking down the Wei Jun infantry on both sides of the mount.

Under such tragic casualties, Wei Bing's marching formation began to collapse section by section from the rear of the team forward, and both infantry and cavalry scattered and fled.

When Xia Houyuan and Deng Ai of the Chinese army saw these situations clearly, the Wei army had been defeated by nearly half.Deng Ai whispered in Xia Houyuan's ear: "General, now that the general situation is over, we should retreat quickly. Let the Chinese army try their best to resist these pursuers for a while."

Deng Ai's words awakened Xia Houyuan from the shock, and he immediately ordered the Chinese army to form an array to defend against Liang Qi who was attacking like thunder, but he himself was surrounded by his own soldiers and rode his horse to the front army.

The infantrymen of the Wei army in the Chinese army saw the menacing Liang army approaching at hand, and saw the commander Xia Houyuan fleeing forward.Before Liang Jun's war cavalry rushed to them, they had already dispersed.Even so, most of the Wei army's infantry still did not escape the arrows of Qingqi Feiyu, the heavy arrows of longbow chariots or the mace of heavy cavalry, and fell on the wilderness in the western suburbs of Luoyang.

Xia Houyuan and Deng Ai rushed all the way to the front of the army marching.They rode their horses and galloped, shouting to the Wei soldiers they passed to speed up.The speed of the entire Wei army's marching ranks also suddenly increased.

Finally, they saw the shadow of Luoyang City.The defenders in the city had already lowered the drawbridge and opened the city gate for them.After Xia Houyuan galloped into the outer city of Luoyang non-stop, the following cavalry of the Liang army had already killed them.Hua Xiong rushed to the front with [-] heavy cavalry, but unfortunately when he was less than two battles away from the suspension bridge, the suspension bridge was raised high again.

Hua Xiong reined in the reins and hastily stopped his mount.He threw the spear in his hand to the ground, and said angrily: "It's a pity, it's a pity, it's only one step away from wiping out Xiahouyuan's troops."

Although Hua Xiong failed to wipe out Xiahouyuan's troops, there were actually only 6000 or [-] Xiahouyuan troops who fled to Luoyang.

At this time, Xia Houyuan had just finished counting the number of people in Luoyang City with a sad face, and said to himself: "Now that a certain's old books have been wiped out, how should I explain to His Majesty!"

But Deng Ai stepped forward and said: "General, now is not the time to think about these things. We can't stay in Luoyang, we have to continue to flee. Now the Liang army outside the city seems to be only a few thousand cavalry. It is impossible for us to defend such a huge Luoyang with our current soldiers and horses."

Xia Houyuan shook his head again and again and said: "Failing to complete the mission of the Holy Majesty to break through Tongguan, losing Hongnong, and losing troops and generals are all serious crimes. If someone loses Luoyang again, then returning to Yecheng is also a dead end. Anyway, it is death anyway. It's better to take a gamble here, if you can use Luoyang as a fortified city to defeat Liang Jun's morale and lose a large number of his soldiers, then there is no way for someone to atone for his crimes in the court."

Deng Ai thought to himself: "Your death is your business, I will not bury you with you." Thinking of this, Deng Ai clasped his fists and said to Xia Houyuan: "In this case, let the general go to Guancheng, a county east of Luoyang, to raise reinforcements. Come to support Luoyang, okay?"

Xia Houyuan didn't think too much, and nodded without hesitation.Deng Ai took the warrant and seal letter from Xia Houyuan, and accompanied by several soldiers, rode out of the east gate and ran towards Hulao Pass.Not long after he ran out, Liang Jun's hundreds of cavalry and dozens of longbow chariots galloped outside the east gate.This is the last gate of Luoyang City that was blocked by Liang Jun.Not long after, the main force of the Liang army also drove to the city of Luoyang, and [-] soldiers surrounded the entire city of Luoyang.Xia Houyuan couldn't escape this time with his wings.

Chapter 664 Undefended Outer City

The Liang army who arrived at the Luoyang city did not launch an attack immediately because of the nightfall, but they deployed an attacking army formation around Luoyang city.All soldiers and war cavalry rested on the spot.Seen from a distance, the piles of bonfires outside Luoyang City look like a sea of ​​stars.

At dawn the next day, when the belly was just turning pale, Liang Jun's horn sounded suddenly.The soldiers of the Liang Army, who were ready for battle, got up from the felt and straw mats and quickly rearranged their formation.Feng Yu looked towards the low city head of Luoyang Outer City, but did not find a trace of Wei Bing.At this time, Liang Bing on several hot air balloons also sent messages with semaphore, and Chengtou in the outer city did not see the enemy soldiers.

Feng Yu nodded to Gao Shun who was looking at him, indicating that the general attack could begin.Although it was known that the outer city was empty, the Liang Jun ballista that had been set aside in a row still fired stone and explosive bombs at the earth wall of the outer city of Luoyang step by step.The low adobe walls were dusted by stone bullets, and some stone bullets were deeply embedded in the wall, forming holes of various sizes.From time to time, the explosive bombs rose up and burst into flames on the wall and the top of the wall.But this low but wide rammed earth wall seems to be very effective in preventing the bombardment of stone bullets. Although it was shot like a sieve by the stone bullets, there is no sign of collapse.

The formal ballista bombardment only lasted for a moment, and Gao Shun's trapped camp carried the pontoon equipment, and the ladder ran from the west gate to Luoyang City.They skillfully built simple bridges on the moat, and erected ladders across the moat.

The strange thing is that during this process, Wei Jun in the city still didn't respond.This made Gao Shun feel uneasy.Feng Yu and the generals who were watching the battle from the rear also found it strange,

Among them, Hua Xiong said to himself: "Could it be that the guards of the Wei army abandoned the outer city and retreated into the inner city?"

Xu Rong echoed: "It must be so. The circumference of Luoyang City is tens of miles. Our Liang Army's tens of thousands of troops can block all the gates of Luoyang City, and then besiege Luoyang by patrolling. Wei Jun If there are not many troops, it would be very difficult to disperse their forces to defend such a large city. So they can only abandon the outer city and concentrate their forces to defend the inner city."

Feng Yu said at this time: "Not necessarily, they might use the residential buildings and alleys in the outer city to concentrate their forces to cooperate with the defenders in the inner city for mobile defense." Although Hua Xiong and Xu Rong couldn't fully understand Feng Yu's words contained some elements of modern warfare vocabulary, but he could understand the general meaning.

Hua Xiong said: "If they really dare to do this, we will use ballistas to blow up the outer city."

Xu Rong continued to echo: "Using crossbows is troublesome. After the soldiers have entered the outer city, they can set fire everywhere and raze the outer city of Luoyang to the ground."

Feng Yu repeatedly shook his head and said, "I wish it was as easy as you said. There are tens of thousands of households living in the outer city of Luoyang. If they are all slaughtered, how can I make me face the world? In addition, our army marched into the Central Plains in a large scale, using The army is only 7 to [-], and after occupying the cities of various places, the soldiers and horses stationed in various places can only be served by local people. How can we win the hearts of the people and stabilize the rule of the counties and counties when we slaughter so much?"

After hearing Feng Yu's words, Hua Xiong and Xu Rong replied, "Your Majesty is more considerate, I'm waiting for you to be reckless."

While they were talking, Gao Shun's army, who was the main attacking vanguard, had crossed the unguarded outer city wall and was heading towards the city.The leader of the trapped camp who rushed to the front had just rushed out of the city wall staircase when he suddenly felt that the soles of his feet were empty, and his whole body fell downwards.The people in the rear saw that he suddenly sank out of thin air, and the two soldiers who followed him also sank.

Immediately afterwards, there were several screams and painful screams from below the large pit in the ground. "There is a trap! Attention everyone, there is a trap!" The soldiers behind hurriedly stopped and looked forward, only to see that in a trap that was close to the diameter of the weapon, three people had been stabbed into a honeycomb by a bamboo stick at the bottom of the pit. .

Two of the three had died, and the other one was the leader of the team. His stomach and thigh were pierced by bamboo sticks, and his intestines flowed out.According to Liang Jun's medical level, it is obvious that he will not survive.He was still screaming.

Seeing that there was no way to save Liang Jun on the trap, he had to carefully walk around the edge of the trap and continue to move forward.But the team leader endured the severe pain and shouted: "Don't leave XX, help XX, give me a shot or an arrow!"

A spear and shield soldier pointed the tip of a spear at his head, closed his eyes and slammed the spear, and then pierced the spear blade into the head of the leader, ending his pain.

Liang Jun who entered the outer city immediately opened the city gate, and the main force of Liang Jun who was waiting outside the city rushed in on foot.Then Liang Jun divided into several groups and marched towards the inner city along the narrow streets and alleys of the outer city.

A group of Liang Jun gun and shield soldiers was walking through a relatively large market, when suddenly a "wall" appeared in front of them.Such a street market is unlikely to be a dead end, and the "wall" made of wood and bricks is obviously a newly built wall.The leader of the team suddenly became vigilant and shouted: "Warning! There are..." Before he finished speaking, tens of hundreds of arrows concentrated on his position.

Although the leader of this team was protected by excellent ring armor, the arrows were so dense that many arrows shot at his parts that were not covered by the armor, and a deadly one pierced through his helmet and shot into his temple.There were more than ten Liang Bing who followed the team leader and rushed to the street on the spot.The rest of Liang Jun hurriedly spliced ​​the large shields in his hands into "turtle shells" to protect the front, rear, left, right, and upper parts.There were bursts of shouts and killings from the houses on both sides.

Hundreds of figures of Wei Jun emerged from the ridge of the roof, jumped down the roof and onto the street, trying to fight Liang Jun at close quarters.At this time, the dense spears also stabbed out from under the turtle shell like porcupine thorns, and immediately killed a large row of these Wei soldiers.Immediately, the two sides stabbed each other with spears, spears, knives and halberds across the shield wall.The combat literacy of Liang Jun's soldiers is obviously higher than that of the opponent, and Liang Jun's losses are smaller than Wei Jun's.As time went by, Wei Jun only had the power to parry.With two whistles, these Wei Jun suddenly turned around and ran to the alley behind them.When Liang Jun was about to pursue, he was stopped by another team leader: "There may be ambushes and traps in the alley! Don't chase after the poor!"

On the main street of Nanshi in the outer city of Luoyang, a group of Liang Jun's heavy armored cavalry, numbering more than two hundred, galloped past.The rider who was running at the front suddenly found a rope stretched across the bluestone slab on the street.

He tried to stop the horse's legs, but it was too late, the rope had already risen across the air, stopping in front of his mount.With a bang, his mount hit the rope, and his whole body flew into the air...

Chapter 665

On Nanshi Street in the outer city of Luoyang, people shouted and neighed.Seven or eight riders, who were too late to stop their horses, slammed into the tripping rope one after another, and seven or eight riders were thrown out a few battles away.These "trapezemen" fell on the bluestone pavement, and either died of bleeding from their mouths and noses on the spot, or broke their bones and limbs, screaming in pain.

The rest of the war horses hurriedly stopped their horses, and at the same time there was the sound of arrows piercing through the air, and a large number of dense arrows shot towards them from the houses and houses on both sides of the street.These arrows shot at them, but they couldn't penetrate the iron armor on the horses and made a clanging sound.The cavalry was led by a Lieutenant of the Liang Army Camp. He looked around first, and then shouted loudly: "All dismount and fight on foot. Go to the alleys and houses on both sides to search for the enemy!"

Nearly two hundred heavy armored cavalry quickly jumped off their respective mounts, divided them into several groups, and each took out a three-foot-long boshou knife.Search the alleys and houses on both sides.One of the teams managed to find the position to fix the tripping rope. It turned out that the rope was wrapped around a solid pillar of the mansion, and the huge impact force of the horse had caused the pillar to tilt slightly.

But they did not find a single enemy soldier.The leader pointed at the houses on both sides with a knife and said, "Go into these houses and search."

Before he finished speaking, another person kicked open the door with a bang, and the person suddenly exclaimed: "Not good..." Before he finished speaking, there was only a muffled bang, and a huge flame burst from there. gushes out from the door.The knight in heavy armor suddenly turned into a fireman.All parts of the armor that could be ignited burned, screaming and rolling on the ground.

Before the rest of the knights could react, several meteor-like objects were thrown from the roofs on both sides. Such sounds were heard one after another, and the inconspicuous sundries piled up on both sides of the street were also blazing.Obviously, these debris piles have long been pre-placed with fire starters.

When more than a dozen armored knights hurriedly retreated towards the entrance of the alley, more than a dozen large fireballs rolled down from the roof, instantly turning the entrance of the alley and a nearby section of the alley into a sea of ​​flames.Heart-piercing screams continued to come from the alleyway.

On Nanshi Street, those Liang Jun heavy armored cavalry who stayed behind saw the narrow streets and alleys that were on fire not far away, and heard screams and screams from time to time, knowing that something was not good.At this moment they heard the sound of galloping horseshoes.Turning his head to look, hundreds of tigers and leopards suddenly rushed out from the south gate of the inner city.

The heavy cavalry of the Liang Army suddenly turned pale with shock. Although their combat power was much higher than that of the tiger and leopard cavalry, they only had a few dozen cavalry. Thousands of tiger and leopard cavalry rode on this narrow street, and even hard work could wear them down. die.These heavy cavalry had no choice, and couldn't care less about their companions stuck in the alley, so they had to retreat in a hurry.

The Gaoshun army that entered the outer city was constantly being harassed like this. Although the losses were not much each time, the cumulative amount was not a small number.

The situation of the battle quickly gathered in Gao Shun's hands, and he immediately understood that Xia Houyuan was using the streets and alleys of the outer city to launch a sniper attack on Liang Jun.Wei Jun must have carefully arranged traps and formulated detailed and complete tactics against Liang Jun in the outer city of Luoyang.

The tactics of the defenders are not unsophisticated, and turned the fact that Luoyang City is too large from a disadvantage to an advantage.

Gao Shun's lieutenant said anxiously to Gao Shun. "General, what should we do now, why not burn the outer city of Luoyang to ashes!"

"No, before we attacked the city, the Holy Majesty specifically told me to minimize the casualties of the people in the city. This is a sacred order, and we cannot disobey it." Gao Shun firmly refused.

"How about that?"

"We can only use a stupid method. Let the scattered soldiers retreat and regroup first. Then divide the outer city of Luoyang into areas and block the inner city of Luoyang. Then we will concentrate our forces and go street by street. Every time an area is cleared, checkpoints will be set up at the key positions to prevent enemy soldiers from infiltrating the rest of the area. After the area becomes the rear, the troops stationed in the garrison will be moved forward. Step by step until it is under control All the outer cities."

The lieutenant general said with a look of embarrassment on his face: "But we don't have enough troops to do this. Just blocking the gates of the inner city requires the strength of a legion."

At this time, Xu Rong appeared beside them, and had already heard the second half of their words.Xu Ronghaha took over the words and said: "General Gao Shun, don't worry. Your Majesty has ordered someone to lead his troops to support you."

Gao Shun responded with great joy: "Brother Xu came at the right time, so please trouble Brother Xu to lead our troops to block the gates of the inner city to prevent them from rushing out of the inner city again, and to cut off the contact between the internal and external enemy soldiers. "

After Xu Rong left, Gao Shun immediately sent an order to all the troops of the legion to retreat to the open space behind the west gate of the outer city.After Gao Shun's army had assembled, the sound of arrows kept ringing from the city.That was the signal that Xu Rong had completed the blockade of the inner city.

Following Gao Shun's order, the soldiers of Gao Shun's regiment gathered at the west gate of the outer city lined up and drove towards the city again.At the same time, several hot air balloons for surveillance and reconnaissance are also rising.

According to the plan, Liang Jun soldiers blocked a pre-delineated area.Then sentry garrisons were set up in various streets and alleys, and the remaining thousands of soldiers were divided into several groups and walked along the carefully set paths.

Each team of the Liang army had a soldier beating the gong, and while they were beating the gong, they recited Liang Jun's Announcement to the People.The common people were asked to leave their houses and gather in the open space designated by Liang Jun.The rest of the soldiers searched alleys, alleys, and houses for possible hidden enemy soldiers.

Crowds of civilians, supporting the old and the young, walked out of the house with horror on their faces. After being checked for not carrying weapons, they walked towards the assembly point designated by Liang Jun under the guidance of Liang Jun.

A Liang Jun team of about ten people marched on a street about eight feet wide.The leader of the group beat the gong and shouted Anmin's notice. The strange thing was that no people on this street took the initiative to go out.Among the rest, a few Liang Bing had started to search from house to house, but they didn't find anyone after they kicked open the door.

A leader-like Liang Bing frowned and said, "There seems to be a problem here!" As soon as he finished speaking, a long gun suddenly shot out from the window pane behind him, and pierced his chest with a puff.At the same time, tens of hundreds of arrows attacked these dozen Liang soldiers.

The large shields in the hands of the dozen or so Liang Jun who were already on guard formed a big bucket in an instant, protecting themselves tightly.At the same time, a loud arrow with red smoke soared into the sky.A large number of Liang Jun guarding around here moved after hearing the sound, and within a few breaths, the streets and alleys of this small area were tightly sealed...

As we bid farewell to the old and usher in the new, I wish readers and friends a happy family and Gong Xi Fa Cai

Chapter 666

Within a quarter of an hour, Liang Jun searched the besieged neighborhood with a radius of less than dozens of battles.But the strange thing is that those Wei soldiers who attacked Liang Jun disappeared as if they had entered the sky and entered the earth.The people found in this block were all ordinary people in Luoyang, judging from their attire.

General Liang Jun once wondered if those Wei soldiers were disguised as civilians and hid among the people, and specially sent someone to investigate carefully.But most of these civilians are old and weak women and children, not even young women.

After some investigation, it is more certain that they cannot be pretended by Wei Bing.It was also known from their replies that the young and strong men in their family were either conscripted by the Wei army in the early years, or were temporarily recruited as strong men by Xia Houyuan at the moment, and were dragged into the inner city to defend the city.Even young women were arrested into the inner city by Xia Houyuan's order.

The situation was quickly reported to Gao Shun. When he was frowning and thinking hard about the reason for this strange incident, the warning arrow flew into the sky again, and the dark Liang Jun once again gathered around the arrow.But it was still the same as last time, nothing was found, and the Wei soldiers who attacked Liang Jun disappeared inexplicably again.But this time, Gao Shun got more information.

A soldier of the Liang Army said to Gao Shun: "General Qi, after our army was ambushed, our scouts tracked down the enemy soldiers. The strange thing is that the direction they fled was not the area we have not cleared and controlled, but the In the opposite direction, they fled towards the area that we had wiped out. In the end, our scouts still lost these Wei soldiers. In addition, several of our guard posts at the end of the intersection were also attacked and killed earlier. In addition , According to the report from the observation post in the air. Before the ambush, these Wei soldiers appeared in the area controlled by our army."

Gao Shun took a deep breath. Now he can be sure that Wei Bing can still appear in the area that Liang Jun has repeatedly suppressed.That means that the so-called area controlled by Liang Jun is actually not controlled by Liang Jun.

He asked in a low voice: "Is there any other population in the area controlled by our army?"

"General, all civilians have been temporarily moved out and gathered in the open space designated by our army. Now these areas have become empty cities, and our soldiers have searched every household. But anyone who dares to refuse to move out will be punished by our army." The soldiers of the Wei army were beheaded and killed as if they were soldiers of the Wei army. There can be no one there!"

Gao Shun let out a long breath and said, "Could it be that they will go to heaven and earth?"

"That's right, they will go to the ground!" A clear voice rang in Gao Shun's ear.Gao Shun looked up and saw that it was none other than Emperor Liang Feng Yu.He hastily kowtowed on one knee: "I kowtowed to Your Majesty, but I didn't know that His Majesty came here in the city, and I was far away to welcome you. Please forgive me for my sin."

Feng Yu hurriedly waved his hand to flatten him, Gao Shun stood up and said worriedly: "Your Majesty should not enter the city at this time, the Wei soldiers are still haunting the city, it is very dangerous."

Feng Yu smiled slightly, and said in his heart: "If I don't enter this Luoyang City, how can I use the systematic bird's-eye perspective function to discover the hidden secrets in various areas of the city." But he said in his mouth: "Based on the current military situation, and the observation soldiers in the air The military intelligence report concluded that Xia Houyuan dug tunnels to connect the inner city with the outer city. They dug at least three tunnels several miles long, and these three tunnels were connected to each other. Therefore, they were able to walk outside Luoyang under the eyes of our army. They can also retreat to the inner city of Luoyang at any time, and send troops from the inner city to harass our army from behind and ambush our army at any time."

Hearing Feng Yu's words, Gao Shun suddenly realized: "It turns out that Xia Houyuan dug the tunnel, no wonder they can be so elusive. But...but how long did it take him to retreat to Luoyang, how could he complete such a huge tunnel in such a short period of time? project?"

Feng Yu laughed and said: "This tunnel must not have been dug recently, but it has been prepared long ago, and it is part of the city defense. This is not necessarily done by Xia Houyuan, but by Zhang Yan."

Gao Shun nodded and said, "So that's the case." Then he asked Feng Yu worriedly: "But Your Majesty, even though we know that Wei Jun has tunnels, it still takes a lot of effort to find their tunnel exits in such a large area. Only by searching door to door carefully can we find the exits of these hidden secret passages. The longer we stay in Luoyang City, the easier it is for Wei Jun to organize a defense at Hulao Pass..."

Feng Yu waved his hand and said, "Gao Qing, don't worry, I have my own way of doing this."

……

To the west of the outer city of Luoyang, there is a mansion compound three miles away from the inner city.Although it is a mansion compound, it looks like it has been abandoned for a long time.One of the two courtyard doors collapsed, cobwebs were overgrown in the house, and a thick layer of dust covered the furniture.The courtyard was even more overgrown with weeds, three to four feet high, filled Ruo Da's courtyard.A dry well was hidden among the weeds and bushes. If you didn't go to a place close by to observe, you wouldn't find the dry well at all.

At this time, a rustling sound suddenly came from the ground along the dry well.After a while, a head popped out of the mouth of the well. After looking outside, it turned out of the well, and it was obvious that it was a soldier of the Wei army.Immediately afterwards, another Ming Wei soldier climbed out of the dry well.After the two threw the rope ladder down the well, Wei Bing climbed out of the dry well one by one.

After a while, the empty courtyard was full of soldiers from the Wei army, and the last one to come up was a general of the Wei army.He whispered to these Wei soldiers, and then led them tiptoe to the mansion.

As soon as these hundreds of Wei soldiers came to the street outside the gate of the mansion, they realized that something was wrong.At this time, with the sound of horseshoes, more than [-] armored cavalry with shoulder heights suddenly turned around from behind the street corner and stood in front of them.

The general of the Wei army who led the team immediately stood up, and he shouted: "No! There is an ambush in the middle, retreat quickly! Withdraw!"

But there was still time, Liang Jun's armored cavalry had already lined up in two rows.One row continued to block the fish in place to prevent the fish from slipping through the net, and the other row pressed down on the Wei soldiers like an iron wall.The heavy cavalry did not hold lances, but replaced them with maces.Most of those Wei soldiers were crushed by Liang Jun's iron cavalry before they could run two steps.Some were directly rushed to the ground by war horses, while others were swept to the ground by maces.

The general of Liang Jun's iron cavalry reminded his companions loudly while charging: "Try not to see blood, and don't crush their bodies. Their clothes are still useful!"

When Liang Jun's iron cavalry swept across the street, the road was full of corpses.Some of the corpses had been trampled to pieces by the iron hooves of the war horses.In the end, only a small number of Wei Junbing fled back into the deserted house.

The leading general of the Wei army ran to the dry well in a panic and was about to go down into the well.

Chapter 667 Half an hour

The general of the Wei Army looked down from the dry well, and was shocked, because the rope ladder had disappeared.Then, he heard a whistling sound, and a heavy arrow suddenly shot between his eyebrows, half a foot straight into his skull.

After the general of the Wei army fell to the edge of the dry well, the Wei soldiers who followed him were stunned for a moment, because they found that there were more than a dozen longbowmen standing or squatting on the roofs and walls around the compound.They also heard that Liang Jun's heavy cavalry also jumped off their horses and rushed into the mansion on foot.

"Surrender quickly, or you will all die without a place to bury!" said a general of Liang Jun squatting on the roof.

"Brother, fight with them, we have to pass the news that the secret way has been exposed to General Xiahou!" A general of the Wei army dressed as a military marquis shouted loudly, and after saying that, he took the lead and rushed to the dry well, following him There are also seven or eight Wei soldiers.

The sound of arrows piercing through the air came from the air one after another.The Wei soldier was shot into a honeycomb by random arrows.The remaining Wei soldiers quickly dropped their weapons on the ground, raised their hands and said: "I will surrender, I am willing to surrender to Daliang." Capture them all.

In less than half an hour later, two more Wei soldiers who came out of the other two tunnel entrances met the same fate, and none of the Wei soldiers could escape.During this half an hour, after some torture and interrogation, Feng Yu got the news he wanted to know from several Wei Jun prisoners.

Similarly, during this half hour, Huaxiong's Army and Yan Yan's Army arrived at the foot of the inner city, joined up with Xu Rong's Army that had blocked there, and immediately launched a general attack on the inner city.

Hundreds of ballistas began to bombard the city.Countless stone bullets hit the city wall and the top of the city.Amidst the continuous bangs, stones and bricks cracked, and flying sand and stones splashed everywhere.Then, hundreds of explosive bombs flew across the sky like meteors and fell towards the head of the inner city of Luoyang, bursting into clusters of flames.Not long after, the inner city of Luoyang became a sea of ​​flames.

Shouting, Liang Jun soldiers rushed to the base of the wall and erected hundreds of ladders.Then they climbed to the top of the city like ants.The top of the city has been burned into a sea of ​​flames. Naturally, no Wei soldiers would throw rolling wood and stones on the top of the city to snipe them.By the time these Liang soldiers who were pioneers climbed to the top of the city, the flames had already reached the point where they were almost extinguished.They stepped on the fiery floor of the city's tunnel, and they were about to kill the urn city and the stairway.

At this time, bursts of shouts erupted from behind the city wall, and a group of Wei soldiers suddenly jumped onto the top of the city wall, rushed to these Liang soldiers and fought with them.It turned out that the inner side of the city head of Luoyang inner city also built a plank road to prevent Liang Jun's explosive bombs from covering and projecting.All the soldiers of the Wei army guarding the city hid on the plank road, the stairway, and the wall of the urn city.After Liang Jun soldiers rushed to the top of the city, they rushed out to fight them at close quarters.

However, Liang Jun has an overwhelming advantage over Wei Jun in Luoyang, both in terms of individual combat power and the number of troops.These soldiers of the Wei army were able to resist for a while, and as more and more Liang soldiers rushed to the top of the city, they were obviously exhausted and showed signs of defeat.

Xia Houyuan was watching the battle on a high platform in the distant city. Seeing such a battle, he secretly became anxious.According to this situation, Liang Jun will break through the inner city in no more than half an hour.With a dark face, he summoned his personal guards and asked, "Why haven't our troops launched operations in the outer city to contain Liang's army from attacking the city?"

Ling Bing was also confused and said: "Commander, half an hour ago, the three teams had infiltrated and lurked into the outer city. At this time, they should have launched an attack on Liang Jun's rear, but I don't know why they came here. Nothing has happened yet."

Xia Houyuan said in an angry tone: "Hurry up and find out what's going on. If there are people who neglect their duties and are afraid of the enemy and don't fight, kill them on the spot and use the law of the army!"

"promise!"

In the inner city of Luoyang, on Jinshi Street in Xicheng, a compound that belonged to a salt merchant was surrounded by soldiers of the Wei army patrolling.The entrances to the three underground secret passages leading to the outer city are all located in this compound.
