West City, North Point.
Gongsun Wulou reined in his horse and stepped hard on the back of a Beifu Army soldier's body. With a "bang" sound, the iron hoofs crushed the armor and leaves to pieces on the ground, and the sound of a broken spine was heard.
There was a loud sound, and along with the sight of blood and flesh flying everywhere, hundreds of armored cavalrymen around them raised their bloody weapons and cheered.
There were more than two hundred corpses of the Jin army lying on the ground. Most of them were sergeants in light leather armor. Only a dozen of them were soldiers in heavy armor. Obviously, this was an army led by a small number of veterans of the Beifu Army.
The Qingzhou militia, a security force of more than 200 people, was placed at the northern end far away from the battlefield, guarding the entrance to the camp.
And the long perimeter dozens of steps behind has also opened a gap more than three feet wide. This temporary construction is not the earthen perimeter facing the city wall. After all, it cannot withstand the terrifying assault of the armored cavalry.
Under the repeated attacks of hundreds of armored cavalry, they also collapsed.
Through this gap, it can be clearly seen that about a mile after the long siege, the Jin army's camp has been clearly seen. It can also be seen that except for the fluttering military flags, even the archery tower is almost unmanned. If at this time
If you charge in, it's really easy to break the camp.
Gongsun Wulou stroked his beard with satisfaction, while Gongsun Liuxiu next to him grinned: "Fifth brother, you are still very good. You found the enemy's weakness in one go. This group of Jin troops can't even signal the smoke."
They were all wiped out by us before we had time. It seems that the Jin army in the distance was busy attacking the city and did not notice us. Let us quickly break the Jin camp according to the original plan, and then break out to the west."
Gongsun Wulou curled up his lips and looked back: "It's just that I don't know what happened to Murong Lin and He Lanmin behind them. If they can't hold off the Jin army's ambush in Beicheng and let those guys chase them, we're afraid
It’s not that easy to stand out.”
Having said this, he pondered for a moment, looked at the camp in front, and said: "Also, is it too easy to open the gap so quickly? I think the Jin army should not be so easy to fight. If they were in the front
If there is an ambush in the camp, we will suffer a big loss. Did anyone be caught alive just now?"
Gongsun Liuxiu looked around and was dismounting to cut off the heads of the Jin army's knights. He said loudly: "Is there anyone alive? The general on the fifth floor needs to ask questions!"
Soon, two armored knights came to Gongsun Wulou, carrying a Jin soldier covered in blood. This was a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a look of fear on his face and two bloody weapons.
The knife was placed on his neck like this. Gongsun Wulou was in front of him, riding on a tall horse, just above the saddle. The big horse had a golden knife, sitting with his legs crossed, looking at him in his eyes,
Revealing murderous intent.
The soldier was crying and said in Xianbei dialect: "Don't kill me, I am a citizen they captured. Don't kill me, I am also a citizen of Dayan!"
Gongsun Wulou sneered: "A common man has the clothes of a common man, but you are a man in armor. When death is imminent, you still want to deceive others? Cut me off..."
The soldier hurriedly kowtowed and said: "General Fifth Floor, Grandpa Fifth Floor, I am really a civilian husband. In order to bluff, the general of the Jin Army asked all of us civilian servants in Donglai to put on armor and help in the battle here to increase our momentum."
"
Gongsun Wulou was a little surprised: "You said you are from Donglai? Say a few words in Donglai dialect!"
The soldier quickly said in Donglai Han dialect: "I am from Niujiazhuang, Mocheng Township, Donglai County, and my name is Niu Wuyang. General Gongsun is famous in Yan, and everyone in our place knows it!"
"
Gongsun Wulou said angrily: "Are you laughing at me?"
The soldier waved his hands again and again: "Don't you dare. People in our village say that if you want to succeed, go to the fifth floor. They all say that the master of the fifth floor is a noble man of our Dayan. As long as he can be his personal guard, then
It can be anything from an official to a duke. In the last battle at Linqu, our villa master said that we had made a meritorious service and had the opportunity to follow the Lord on the fifth floor, so he took us on the expedition."
Gongsun Wulou's expression softened slightly: "So, you surrendered to the Jin army in the last war?"
Niu Wuyang's voice was filled with tears: "Master Fifth Floor, it's really not Xiao Xiao's fault. The army was defeated and the village owner also died in the battle. Xiao Xiao just wanted to escape, but was caught by the Jin army. He didn't dare to run away, so he just wanted to escape."
He can be driven by them, but he has always been a citizen of Dayan. He knows the kindness of Dayan to him. This time when he saw the invincible Ju Jiajiao cavalry coming, he knew that Dayan was going to win.
I don’t dare to confront Master Wang at all. I will abandon my armor and surrender as soon as I throw away my weapons. Otherwise, I won’t be able to survive alone!”
Gongsun Wulou looked at the two sergeants behind him who were ready to chop him with their swords: "Is that so?"
A knight said angrily: "This kid is not honest. He didn't want to surrender as soon as he saw us. He was just afraid of death and wanted to run away as soon as he threw his weapon away. We caught up with him. However, like him
It’s rare among these people to run away like this when they see us... Mr. Fifth Floor, he probably won’t tell the truth, so why not kill him and let’s go scout the enemy camp!”
Niu Wuyang was so frightened that he knelt down and jumped forward, hugging Gongsun Wulou's horse's leg tightly. The expressions of the two armored riders changed and they raised their swords to chop, but Gongsun Wulou smiled and waved
He waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute."
The two men sheathed their knives and retreated. Niu Wuyang hugged the horse's leg and kowtowed: "Master Fifth Floor, I tell you, I tell you everything. If you ask me if I tell a lie, I will die without a complete body!"
Gongsun Wulou smiled and said: "As long as you are willing to live, I will give you a way to survive. However, as you said, if you tell a lie, I will let you die without a body. Okay, let me ask you, this camp
How many troops and horses are left in the defense?"
Niu Wuyang said quickly: "We have a baggage building in the camp behind, there are 537 people, 310 people are with the army, no, no, no, we are going to attack the city with the Wu thieves, and there are 220 more
Seventeen people, except for seven people left to guard the camp, that’s all us."
Gongsun Wulou sneered: "But I took a look just now. Apart from you, there are at least two hundred and thirty-five corpses. What are these extra bodies?"
Niu Wuyang said without thinking: "These are the armored Beifu sergeants you see. Many of us civilian men are Dayan sergeants who were captured during the Battle of Linqu. These Wu dogs don't trust us, so they sent armored soldiers to lead us.
Come on, they say they are protecting us, but in fact they are just monitoring us."
Gongsun Wulou's eyes flashed coldly: "Who is the owner of your baggage building and where is he now? Who is the officer who led your baggage building? Find it out for me!"
