Although Liu Shilin's words were very reserved, Ye Mingsheng immediately understood the true meaning of his words, and a burst of anger immediately burst out in his heart, and he said coldly: "There is a secret passage, and he might have escaped now."

went!"

Liu Shilin smiled bitterly and said: "Master Ye, it's not that I'm embarrassing you. I also know that this matter is difficult to handle, but there is no way. The higher-ups have already explained it."

"I can only do my best."

Ye Mingsheng was silent for a while and said helplessly:

The Supervision Department represented by Liu Shilin wanted to break through the royal city as soon as possible, kill Li Ziyuan, and prevent the king of Gongdu from escaping, so as to avoid long nights and nightmares. To be honest, Ye Mingsheng could understand their thoughts, but the reality now is that he only has

We have a combat strength of about 2,500 men...

The royal city where Li Zaiyuan was located was extremely strong, and the five hundred Red Tiger Army were also the elite of the palace army. They were guarding the royal city. Ye Mingsheng really couldn't think of any good way to break the city as soon as possible.

The only way is to use human life to fill it!

The most important point is that after tonight, the Gongdu troops who get the news of Ryugyong's attack will definitely rush to help Ryugyong.

If the situation is not handled well at that time, it will be attacked from both sides and the whole army will be annihilated. Therefore, the pressure now placed in front of Ye Mingsheng can be said to be very great.

ugly moment

In Liujing's Xinshuifang, the shouts of killing were loud, and countless torches were raised, making the surroundings no different from daytime. Under the three-way attack of the Zhou army that invaded the city, a large number of palace troops were defeated and expelled to

here.

"Brother Chen, we have completed the encirclement. Just waiting for your order, we can annihilate them all immediately!" Wang Xian wiped the blood of the enemy on his face and reported excitedly to Chen Yannian in front of him:

"very good!"

After receiving the news from Wang Xian, the serious expression on Chen Yannian's face also eased. Not wanting to give the palace troops too much breathing space, he immediately prepared to launch a general attack.

However, at this moment, a rush of footsteps suddenly came from the east side, and then a group of troops, all covered in red armor and carrying a red tiger flag, rushed out.

The Gongdu rebels who were trapped in Xinshuifang all raised their arms and shouted when they saw the appearance of this army. Their originally low morale instantly rose, and they spontaneously formed a queue and launched an attack on the Gongdu army that surrounded them.

charge.

At the same time, Chen Yannian also used this red tiger flag to confirm that the opponent was the most elite force in the palace - the Red Tiger Army. His expression suddenly became serious again and he ordered to the people around him:

"Wang Xian, take your people and resist this Red Tiger Army. Lin Huaiwu and Gao Zuorong, you two, shrink the encirclement and try your best to kill the palace army in the square!"

All the generals also understood that the current situation was critical, so they did not waste any nonsense and started fighting according to Chen Yannian's orders.

As an experienced veteran, Wang Xian immediately ordered his men to prepare a military formation and place three squatting tiger cannons in front of the formation.

Seeing that the Red Tiger Army in front of him had entered the killing range of 300 steps, Wang Xian did not rush to open fire, but continued to observe coldly.

"Two hundred steps...one hundred and fifty steps...one hundred and thirty steps..."

Wang Xian silently calculated the distance in his mind, and when he could vaguely see the ferocious expressions on the faces of the opposing soldiers, he knew it was time. He immediately lowered his big hand, and the gunners were already ready, and they immediately started firing.

The three squatting tiger cannons all roared, and a large number of shotguns roared towards the charging Red Tiger soldiers. A small group of the charging Red Tiger soldiers at the front were immediately knocked down.

However, at this time, the Red Tiger Army, known as the most elite army in the palace, still showed their strong willpower. Although the people in front fell, the soldiers in the back row still looked at death and headed towards Wang Xian's troops.

The military formation rushed over.

Because loading the Tiger Crouching Cannon was very cumbersome and troublesome. After one shot, it would take a long time to complete the second shot. Therefore, after the first firing, the gunner immediately picked up the Tiger Crouching Cannon and withdrew to the military formation.

At this time, Wang Xian's dozens of three-eyed guns were exerting their power. However, because Red Tiger Army soldiers generally wore armor, the damage of the three-eyed guns was really limited.

After two rounds of firearms attacks, the Red Tiger Army finally rushed to the military formation after losing twenty or thirty lives. The two armies began to engage in hand-to-hand combat. It was at this time that the Red Tiger Army, as the most elite single force in the palace,

The advantage of the soldiers in combat was demonstrated. Although Wang Xian's troops were more numerous than them, and under Wang Xian's command, the formation was very compact, they could only parry.

After supporting half a stick of incense, the two armies fell into chaos. Although Wang Xian was a veteran general, what he could do at this time was very limited. He could only lead a few soldiers and fight continuously.

Wandering on the battlefield, if the situation is critical, go and block it, act as a firefighter, and try your best to buy time for Gao Zuorong and Lin Huaiwu behind to annihilate the Gongdu rebels in Xinshuifang.

Although Wang Xian had worked very hard, the general Pu Jingyuan who led the Red Tiger Army also gave his subordinates a death order. They must kill and rescue their colleagues trapped in Xinshuifang. Therefore, the Red Tiger Army also fought to the death.

Pressing forward step by step, the Red Tiger Army finally opened a hole in Wang Xian's position after sacrificing more than a hundred lives.

The emergence of the life channel was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the remnants of Gongdu's army in Xinshuifang who were struggling to support themselves. They had been defeated by the Zhou army and fled towards the gap opened by the Red Tiger army with all their lives.

, rolling and crawling one by one, wishing that my parents would have less legs.

Although Chen Yannian tried his best to complete the encirclement and block the gap, he could only watch helplessly as about five to six hundred remaining troops from the palace were rescued from Xinshuifang by the Red Tiger Army and evacuated to their royal city.

among.

After the war, Chen Yannian gathered his soldiers and monitored the enemy's royal city, and then sent people to report the situation on the front line to Ye Mingsheng in the rear.

Ye Mingsheng, who got the news after burning the incense, brought several hundred men under Liu Shilin and Pu Yongzhe to the gate of the royal city and reunited with Chen Yannian and others.
