Chapter 21 Reversal

"Big head man, today I and you will take turns to attack the city. Each of us will attack for an hour. Whoever takes the city first will get an additional 20% of the captured city. How about that?"

In order to prevent Cen Jifu from being too busy to work, Chen Bangchuan simply transferred Cen Jifu to the west gate to attack the city with him. At the south gate, only 1,500 people from Duyang Chieftain Wang Long were left to defend.

"It is better for me to be respectful than to obey orders," Cen Jifu reluctantly agreed.

From Mao hour to Chen hour, Chen Bangchuan's troops abandoned more than a hundred corpses and returned without success.

"Hahaha", Cen Jifu laughed.

Chen Bangchuan went viral: "Is the big man laughing at my incompetence?"

Cen Jifu sneered: "I thought the general had experienced hundreds of battles, but I didn't expect him to be so stupid in starting a battle! I ask the general to plunder the formation for me and let's see how my men from Sicheng can defeat the city."

Cen Jifu is known as the "wise general" among the generals in Sicheng. Although he is conserving his strength these days, he has also thought of ways to attack the city.

I saw him waving the flag, and thousands of bucket trucks with wooden boards on the back and earth bags on the front rushed towards the city wall. When they reached the bottom of the wall, the soldiers lifted the trucks, unloaded the earth bags and ran back.<

/p>

Thousands of bucket trucks loaded with an astonishing amount of soil bags soon formed a slope.

Qianjiang is just a small county town, and the city wall is only one foot or eight feet. It only took the soldiers more than an hour to pile up the slope to the top of the wall.

Cen Jifu was overjoyed and ordered the soldiers to go up the slope and storm the city head.

Seeing how clever Cen Jifu was in attacking the city, Chen Bangchuan couldn't help but admire him: "Sicheng Coyote really deserves his reputation!"

Zhu Hengjia, who was watching the battle in Xicheng, was shocked and immediately ordered all battalions to form formations in front of the slope to defend.

In order to boost morale, Zhu Hengjia ordered his Panlong banner to be moved to the front of the array. The Panlong banner represented the supreme royal power, and the entire Jing army only had this one.

When the officers and soldiers of the Jing Army saw the prisoner coming in person, their morale was greatly boosted, and they fought with the native soldiers and refused to retreat.

Soldiers fell one after another, and lives disappeared one after another.

What is competing at this time is the commander's will and determination.

Suddenly, a black shadow appeared on the west side of Chen Jun's army. Slowly, the black shadow got closer and closer, growing bigger and bigger, like a huge awl killing Chen Bangchuan's Chinese army.

Zhaoqing Lieutenant General Yan Zungao's 7,000 troops have arrived.

After receiving the transfer order from Zhu Hengjia in Zhaoqing, Yan Zungao ordered his men to not remove their armor and their horses to leave their saddles, and they rushed to Wuzhou day and night in order to repay Zhu Hengjia's kindness.

When I arrived in Wuzhou, I found out that Zhu Hengjia had already gone to Liuzhou before he could wait for me.

So he hurriedly rushed to the Hongshui River. He happened to meet Sun Gui's water camp and transported him to the other side to land.

Yan Zungao laid out the formation and immediately rushed to Qianjiang County, catching Chen Bangchuan by surprise.

At first, Zhu Hengjia thought that he had a strong army and a strong horse, and could still win the battle without the 7,000 men of Yan Zuggao's army. Unexpectedly, Yan Zuggao saved his life. He couldn't help but think over and over again, "There is no small thing for soldiers, and you can't be careless. You can't be careless!"
p>

Yan Zunnagao was originally a subordinate general of the Dingkui Chu tribe, and Zhu Hengjia sent him to take control of several counties east of Zhaoqing. Some people thought that the surrendered general was unreliable and were afraid that Yan Zunnagao would never return. But Zhu Hengjia said that Yan Zunnagao would never betray me. Yan Zungjia heard about this.

I was very touched and determined to repay the favor, and finally made a great contribution this time.

After Yan Zungao's 7,000-strong army arrived, Chen Bangchuan had no time to change his formation to fight. He had to order the 500 soldiers around him to launch a desperate charge against Yan Zunyu, while blowing the horn to retreat.

After blowing the retreat horn, Chen Bangchuan ran back with his troops without looking back.

This troubled the chieftain Cen Jifu who was fighting hard on the slope. He was cut off by Yan Zungao's army and was in a dilemma.

Cen Jifu sighed: "This is God's will, and it is not a crime of war." He committed suicide by cutting his neck.

Zhu Hengjiajing recognized him as a man and ordered him to be buried lavishly.

Chen Bangchuan's retreat was not smooth. Yang Wubu, the cavalry battalion of Jing's army, had been stationed outside the city to harass Chen's army. At this time, seeing that Chen's army was in disarray, they immediately pursued and killed him.

The infantry who couldn't form a formation were helpless in front of the cavalry and were killed to pieces by Chen Wubu.

Chen Bangchuan could only let his only 300 cavalry fight with Chen Wu's troops to cover the retreat of the main force.

When retreating to Shanglin, Chen Bangchuan counted the remaining soldiers and found that there were only 4,000 people left in the headquarters and only 3,000 native soldiers. Among the seven chieftains, Wei Biao, the chieftain of ancient times, and Wei Feng, the Anding chieftain, fled back, along with 300 cavalry and 500 rogue soldiers.

The entire army was wiped out.

Chen Bangchuan also wanted to rely on the natural dangers of Daming Mountain for defense. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at Daming Mountain to set up camp, he received a report from his subordinates. Wei Biao and Wei Feng escaped with their local soldiers.

Hu Zhigong advised Chen Bangchuan to withdraw all the garrison troops from all counties to Fucheng to defend the city to delay the change and wait for the rescue of Cen family in Sicheng.

??

At the south gate of Qianjiang County, Duyang Chieftain Wang Long and his local soldiers fled southward as hard as they could.

Wang Long knew that Chen Bangchuan had a big target, so he didn't dare to flee westward with Chen Bangchuan, so he simply fled south. Behind him was a handsome, starry-eyed young man in white robe with dozens of horses in hot pursuit.

Seeing that there were not many pursuers, Wang Lung decided to fight to the death. Unexpectedly, the young general was so skilled in martial arts that he cut down Wang Lung's personal guards one by one.

"Come on!" The young man in white robe shouted loudly, clamped his horse's belly, stepped off the horse and galloped in front of Wang Long, his sharp sword flashing past.

"Don't hurt my father." A black-robed wolf general took out a bamboo spear and stabbed the white-robed young man in the throat.

The young general dodged the bamboo spear, and with a flash of his sword, the bamboo hat on the wolf general's head was cut off, and a head of hair spurted out.

"It's actually a female general." The young general was stunned.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang Long hurriedly knelt down and asked to surrender: "General, wait a moment, we are willing to surrender."

The young general laughed loudly and said, "You know what I'm doing," and continued to chase the enemy on horseback.

"May I ask the general's name?" Wang Long asked nonchalantly.

"General Zhu Hengkuo of the auxiliary country", as soon as he finished speaking, the divine horse had disappeared.
