After Xia Houyuan escaped, Mao Jie also blended into the crowd and left quickly due to Xu Chu's carelessness.

The Xiliang soldiers without their generals were under the unstoppable impact of the soul-killing camp and the trapped camp. They were all killed in a short time. The corpses were piled on top of each other. In the place with the most corpses, there were even seven or eight cold corpses piled together.

, formed like a sand dune.

However, Gao Shun and Xu Chu did not stop their march. Instead, after defeating the Xiliang army in the field, they quickly led the trapped camp and the soul-killing camp to detour towards the left and right city gates of Xinping.

There are still two thousand defenders in Xinping City. Now that the attack has been carried out, it is naturally impossible for them to hold back any more!

Four thousand people were divided into two groups and suddenly appeared between the two sides of Xinping City. The frightened soldiers in Xinping City hurriedly closed the gate. The soldiers on the tower looked at the soldiers below the tower tremblingly! Their eyes were full of vigilance.

.

In a small city like Xinping, the city towers can be described as extremely simple. Although Gao Shun and Xu Chu were on opposite sides, they gave almost exactly the same orders!

Attack the city directly!

Outside the North City Gate

Under the leadership of Xu Chu, two thousand soul-killing battalion soldiers took advantage of the momentum they had just defeated 10,000 Xiliang troops to directly attack the city with cavalry.

When the order was given, a thousand soldiers rushed towards the closed city gate like a tide.

Chirp! Chirp! Chirp...

And another thousand soldiers, riding their horses under the city tower, drew strings and fired towards the top of the city tower. A rain of arrows as dense as locusts shot up from the bottom of the city tower. The continuous rain of arrows hit the people on the city tower.

Soldiers can't be beaten at all

The soldiers who did not raise their heads or raised their heads were immediately shot into sieves. They fell down under the city tower and were smashed into meat. In less than a quarter of an hour, the Xiliang army defenders on the city tower had already been killed and wounded several times.

Hundreds of people!

Under the city tower, Xu Chu kept waving his sword and slashing at the gate of Xinping City. Every time he slashed, the gate shook, and he couldn't help but roar:

"You bastards upstairs, how dare you not open the city gate. When I come up, your heads will be tied to the tower and fed to the vultures!"

On both sides of Xu Chu's side, there were soldiers carrying wooden sticks and hitting the city gate continuously!

How could the city gate, which was not strong enough, withstand the impact of the Soul Killing Battalion soldiers? A moment later, the city gate made a loud noise and fell down!

"Haha! Fight in!" When Xu Chu saw this, he raised his sword with great joy and rushed in directly on horseback. As soon as he rushed into the city gate, he got off his horse and ran directly towards the tower.

More than a thousand soldiers followed them up to the city tower. The soldiers of Xiliang who were guarding the city encountered the soul-killing camp. It ended in a complete massacre. In less than half an hour, all kinds of dead people were everywhere on the city tower.

There is not a single living soldier among the Xiliang soldiers of France...

"Someone, go and inform the lord that Xinping City has been destroyed!"

A loud shout rang out, and Xu Chu, covered in blood, walked out from the corridor exit where there were most corpses, carrying a sword that was completely stained with blood, and walked out with a proud look on his face:

"It seems that this time, that boy from Tai'an finally lost to me, Xu Chu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a general wearing a white gown stepped onto the tower with his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist. His originally expressionless face suddenly sank when he saw the corpses littering the tower.

He came down, took two deep breaths of turbid air, and asked:

"Zhongkang, why are there corpses everywhere here?!"

"Taian?!" Hearing that familiar voice, the smile on Xu Chu's face froze, and he turned his head a little depressed. Seeing Gao Shun's clean appearance, he couldn't help but glare:

"Why have you changed all your clothes?!"

"Idiot! Don't you know how to persuade me to surrender?!" Gao Shun's face darkened, and he pointed at the corpses scattered on the tower: "Even if the other side doesn't surrender all, it's impossible not to surrender at all?!

"

"Well, they didn't open the city gate!" Xu Chu scratched his hair, which was sticky after the blood dried up.

"Did you let them open the city gate?!" Gao Shun asked, looking at a guard next to Xu Chu. Xu Chu also looked at the guard.

Being watched by the two generals, the guard shuddered unconsciously and stammered: "General Zhongkang doesn't seem to want the other party to surrender, but directly attacks the city!"

"That's it! You tell the master about this!" Gao Shun shook his head and walked directly down the city tower with his bodyguard, leaving Xu Chu and his bodyguard staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

...

Under the North Gate of Xinping City

After Yun Ye received the news from Xu Chu, he immediately rushed to the outside of Xinping City with the remaining soldiers and horses. At this moment, the top of the Xinping City Tower had not been cleaned. In the light of the torch, he could faintly see the mess on the ground. Everywhere

There were all lying mutilated corpses, broken spears and halberds, and broken flags. The whole tower looked quite desolate.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which made Yun Ye frowned: "Why does this look more tragic than the battle on the river bank?!"

Guo Jia smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, you have forgotten that this place was captured by General Zhong Kang!"

"Um."

Yun Ye nodded when he heard this, with a look of understanding on his face.

Xu Chu was a straight-tempered person. He probably didn't even wait for the opponent to surrender before attacking the city directly. Otherwise, the North Gate, which was defended by only a thousand people, wouldn't have been so tragic!

One thousand ordinary soldiers are fighting against two thousand of the world's elites. Just look at the tens of thousands of people fleeing outside Chang'an City, and you can see that the Xiliang army is by no means die-hard loyalists. A thousand people are not fools, so how can they fight to the death?

Not willing to surrender?!

The biggest possibility is that Xu Chu did not give the other party a chance to surrender at all!

However, Yun Ye didn't say much. He thought for a moment, looked in the direction of Wugong, and said: "Wugong is still ready for five thousand soldiers and horses, and Wugong is close to Xianyang, and the Huaili Ma Teng Camp has an army of 30,000.

But it’s coming in one day, do you have any good ideas?!”

Yun Ye looked at Guo Jia and Jia Xu. Xun You did not come out this time, but was teaching Shi Tao some government affairs. As for the other counselors, Yun Ye did not bring them out at all. Therefore, Yun Ye

The only people who could ask for advice were Guo Jia and Jia Xu.

"Lord, the current situation is still beneficial to our army!" Jia Xu thought for a while, pointed in the direction of martial arts, and said in a deep voice, "The lord of the kingdom went out of the city to attack our army, but was defeated in one day. With this news, as long as we operate

Correctly, it will take at least two days to return to Wu Gong, and if our army marches overnight, it will be able to reach Wu Gong in the early morning at most."

After a pause, Jia Xu continued his analysis: "And if we can send a group of soldiers and horses in advance, pretending to be the king's defeated soldiers and go to Wugong, Cheng Yinasi thought that the time was wrong, and he would definitely be suspicious and detain him.

!And after another half an hour, another team of people and the kingdom’s

The token was used as evidence, and he pretended to be the king's wife, pretending to be extremely tired from chasing, and said that the group of soldiers and horses in front of him were the prisoners captured by the king's wife during the siege, and they escaped during the escort.

Cheng Yi was able to hand over the remaining soldiers and promised not to enter the city gate!

If this is the case, based on Cheng Yi's personality, he will let the second group of troops enter the city. As soon as they enter the city gate, they will respond immediately. If this happens, the martial arts city can be destroyed in one day!"

"Fake the city?!"

Yun Ye naturally understood the meaning of Jia Xu's words. Although there were many examples of defrauding the city in history, if one goes by what Jia Xu said, it is not certain that the deception of the city could be successful!

"But if that's the case..." Yun Ye hesitated for a moment, then immediately looked determined, and said in a deep voice, "Leave it to Wen He to pursue the two remnants of the army. Send the order, and don't stop. Go straight to the martial arts."

go!"

"My lord is wise!" Seeing Yun Ye's decisive killing, Guo Jia and Jia Xu both had a look of satisfaction in their eyes, and they all clasped their fists together.
Chapter completed!
