The heavy rain was still falling, mixed with the raging wind, as if the heaven and earth were connected into one.
Zhang He and Wu Liden each led 2,500 Wuhuan cavalry, divided into left and right sides, and galloped towards the east and west sides, while Gao Fei led the remaining 2,000 cavalry and galloped towards the main gate.
The closer they got to Wangping City, the louder the noise became. There was the roar of horse hooves everywhere outside. Some Xianbei people who couldn't squeeze into the city were running back and forth on horseback, trying to find an intersection where they could break through.
Just when the Xianbei people thought they would win this battle, a group of cavalry suddenly came out from behind. Each cavalryman used a two-meter-long halberd. They rushed towards them with a roar, speaking the same language as them.
, the only difference is that they wear uniform armor.
"The Wuhuan Cavalry is coming, the Wuhuan Cavalry is coming..." A Xianbei cavalryman recognized this unit, waved the saber in his hand and rushed over. He shouted twice in a hurry, and the third time he shouted
Without shouting out, his throat was cut open by a halberd, and he fell heavily to the ground. His flesh and blood were bruised by the hoofs of horses rolling from behind.
There were violent storms, lightning and thunder, but the well-intentioned reminder of the Xianbei people was swallowed up by the rumbling thunder, covering the ears of all the Xianbei people, and they were not aware of the coming breath of death.
The Wuhuan Tuqi were indeed the best soldiers in the world. They came out of Donghu together with the Xianbei people, and their customs and languages were different. The Tuqi suddenly rushed over, raised their halberds and rushed towards them with great force.
The Xianbei people, facing the unknown Xianbei people in front of them, each of them pounced like a tiger. Even if the Xianbei people were aware of their arrival, for these cavalry, dealing with the Xianbei people was simply a piece of cake.
, because they are most familiar with the Xianbei people's fighting mode.
Led by Gao Fei, fierce tigers pounced into the Xianbei cavalry from behind in an instant. Wherever they went, all the Xianbei people fell off their horses, and the number of corpses on the ground continued to increase.
At the crossroads near the Wangpingcheng County Government Office, Zhao Yun faced south. The knife in his hand had already been cut and curled. He was numb from killing and had already forgotten to replace the blunt knife in his hand. He just kept waving the knife in his hand.
Knife, no matter how many Xianbei people come, they will kill as soon as they see it. The water around them has already been dyed red with blood. The Xianbei people with broken bones and tendons fell into the water, slowly forming a tower.
A small mountain of corpses.
To the north, Chu Yan used his huge body and the lightness of a flying swallow to shuttle back and forth among the cavalry ranks with his two swords, using his huge arm strength to cut off the knights on horseback. Behind him was a
There was a mess of filth, with countless intestines floating in the bloody water, like floating water snakes, which made people almost nauseous just looking at it.
To the east, blind Yu Du held a shield in one hand and a gun in the other, and lined up with the spearmen around him. Whenever horses came galloping, he would greet them with their spears, always holding on to the last line of defense.
To the west, Bian Xi held a throwing knife. Under the resistance of the shield soldiers in front, he threw the throwing knife in his hand. Once the flying knife flew out, it was accurately inserted into the heart of the Xianbei people, causing the knight on the horse to fall off his horse immediately.
Next. He threw more than a dozen flying knives in succession. When the last flying knife was thrown, he took out his sword, picked up the shield sunk under the water, and rushed forward resolutely.
In the county government office, Guan Hai regained consciousness, wrapped in bandages and guarding the door with a few soldiers. Everyone held a hard crossbow in their hands. Although the lethality of the crossbow arrows would be greatly reduced on rainy days, they still used it.
This provided cover for the surrounding soldiers. The walls of the county government office were covered with crossbowmen. When they saw the Xianbei people in the rain, they immediately pulled the trigger and shot down many people.
While everyone was fighting bloody battles, they suddenly heard people behind the Xianbei people jumping on their backs, and a cavalry team with similar looks but different uniforms came out from three different directions: east, west, and north.
"It's my lord! My lord is here, my lord is here!" Chu Yan rushed into the Xianbei people's team alone. A circle of Xianbei people surrounded him. He glanced sideways and saw Gao Fei charging towards him on horseback and holding a halberd.
Then he shouted loudly.
The voice spread quickly, and the words "The Lord is coming" suddenly became the strongest cry of all the Han soldiers near the county government. After the loud shouts, every Han soldier ignited a kind of hope, and their
I was encouraged in my heart, and my low morale was immediately boosted. Everyone became very high-spirited and shouted.
As a result, huge changes took place on the battlefield. The Xianbei people on the east, west, and north sides were attacked by the Wuhuan cavalry and the Han army at the same time. The sudden arrival of this cavalry disrupted the entire battlefield and reversed the passivity of the Han army.
The situation caused the Xianbei people to fall into a bitter battle and extreme panic. The huge roars echoed endlessly in the ears of the Xianbei people, making them terrified. However, there were Han troops in front and cavalry behind them. They wanted to run and run away.
Unable to lose, he wanted to fight but was secretly timid. With no choice but to escape through the streets and alleys of the city, the group of people all jumped to the south.
The four to five thousand Xianbei people in the far north could not escape at all. Even if they hid in the streets, they could not cross the strong defense line of the Han army at the intersection. On this evening of heavy rain, they were defeated by the Wuhuan cavalry who had just joined the battle.
They surrounded them and were instantly divided into small areas. Then they were once again surrounded by Han infantry and Wuhuan cavalry. In just a moment, they were all killed.
Many Xianbei people from the east and west sides successfully escaped to the main street in the south. There was no shadow of the cavalry behind the Xianbei people in the south. When they saw their companions retreating from the east and west sides, they all felt something was wrong.
, retreated quickly.
Zhao Yun followed closely with his soldiers, wading through the water that almost reached his knees, waving his sword and rushing out, killing all the Xianbei people who had not had time to escape.
Zhang He and Wu Lideng originally went to the south to outflank them, but when they circled the city to the east and west, they found that the city walls on both sides had disappeared, and the Xianbei people were constantly
They attacked the city from these two sides, so without thinking, the two of them immediately led their respective cavalry to cover them from behind.
At this time, there were thousands of horsemen remaining on the north, east, and west sides, but the Xianbei people in the south had already retreated, gathered into a group in the heavy rain, and ran towards the Liaohe River.
Seeing that the Xianbei people in the south had escaped, Zhao Yun led his men to turn around and go back to kill them. Together with Gao Fei, Zhang He, Wu Liden, Chu Yan, Bian Xi, Yu Du and the injured Guan Hai, they killed the surrounded Xianbei people.
.
More than half an hour later, all the Xianbei people in Wangping City who had no time to escape were killed, and thousands of corpses filled the streets and alleys of the city.
The entire battle was over, the violent wind and rain had subsided slightly, and the inside and outside of Wangping City had become a dead city, with corpses strewn everywhere and blood flowing like rivers.
Gao Fei rode his horse to the county government office. He felt very uncomfortable when he saw the people in the county government office and the seriously injured soldiers missing arms and legs. He turned around and saw the people gathered near the county government office who looked exhausted from the bloody battle.
Soldiers, salty liquid flowed out of his eyes, mixed with the rain and dripped on the ground.
"Lord! Bald Pei... Bald Pei is dead, and many brothers are dead. If the lord comes a little later, I'm afraid our army will be wiped out." Guan Hai endured the pain in his body and knelt down with a plop.
On the water-covered ground, he kept slapping the water on the ground with his hands, with a trace of hatred that could not be wiped out, and said with tears streaming down his face.
Gao Fei looked around at everyone standing in the rain. He felt very guilty and said loudly: "I'm sorry for everyone. If I could have crossed the Liao River earlier, you wouldn't have paid such a painful price. I..."
"Lord! We don't have any complaints. Even if the whole army is annihilated, we will never have a trace of hatred towards the lord. We only hate ourselves for being incompetent and unable to firmly defend this city. We have killed our brothers and injured them.
Injury. Now that the lord is here, we must not let those Xianbei people go. We want to avenge our dead brothers. Please lead us to kill those Xianbei people!" Zhao Yun shouted loudly with an angry look on his face.
.
"Please, my lord, lead us to kill the Xianbei people and avenge our dead brothers!" Everyone said in unison.
After Gao Fei heard this, he immediately turned his face and said to Wu Liden beside him: "There are about ten or twenty thousand Xianbei people who escaped. They must have been defeated and they will definitely try their best to escape north and escape to the grassland.
.But there is the Liao River ahead, and with the sudden heavy rain, the water level of the river will definitely rise. The Xianbei people will definitely gather on the river bank and be unable to cross the river now. Are you willing to lead your people to continue to follow me to pursue the Xianbei people?"
Uliden beat his chest with his right fist, lowered his head and shouted: "Dear General Shenyongtian, your military force is the strongest among us. You are the hero in our hearts. We are willing to follow the hero through life and death. We Wuhuan people never ask
How many enemies are there? Just ask where they are and ask General Heaven to give orders!"
Gao Fei shouted: "Okay! Zhao Yun, Zhang Hen, Chu Yan, you come with me, everyone else stays. This time we want the Xianbei people to see the true strength of the Wuhuan Tuqi!"
After the words fell, Zhao Yun and Chu Yan regained their energy and asked the soldiers to bring their best weapons. One person held a gun and the other wielded a pair of swords. They brought two horses from the horses left by the Xianbei people.
After jumping on the horseback, they followed Gao Fei and galloped northward with Zhang He, Wu Liden and 7000 Wuhuan Tuqi.
At this time, the Liaohe River was just as Gao Fei expected. The water level of the river suddenly rose a lot. All the boats that the Xianbei people had left on the river bank after crossing the river were washed away without a trace by the rising river water, and the river was rolling.
It came in an endless stream, and the water flow was extremely fast.
On the river bank, Bu Dugen fell into extreme confusion when he saw the turbulent water. He and his five cavalrymen ran back and forth along the river bank for a while, but they could not find a place or boat to cross the river. He
He looked up to the sky and sighed, and shouted loudly: "God, are everything you said to the shaman false? Why did I fail so badly?"
