Looking at the tall and majestic city wall, Heitie, who originally felt full of energy, suddenly felt as if all his strength had been used up. Waves of soreness and weakness came from all over his body, and then he realized that his physical strength was a little weak.
Heitie raised his head, looked up at the tall city wall, and shouted loudly: "People above, listen, we are the right governor of Nanjing, the commander-in-chief of Shandong, under the command of General Pang Gang of Dingguo, and we are here to relieve the siege of Luoyang.
Be ready to open the city gate to welcome my army into the city!"
Heitie's voice was very loud, and Liu Yuliang and Wang Yinchang, who had been on the city wall, naturally heard it. Just now, the people on the city wall saw what Hei Tie and the others were doing when they charged into the battle, so they naturally knew that reinforcements were coming, and Liu Yuliang cowered.
Shrunken, he poked his head out of the crenel and asked with surprise: "Listen below, is Pang Gang here in person?"
When Kurogie heard this, he felt a little unhappy. He thought: We have worked so hard to rescue you, so forget it if you are not grateful. You dare to call us adults by their first names. Is that what you can do?
Heitie was not happy, so what he said was naturally not pleasant, "Nonsense, who else besides my family would come all the way to Luoyang to save you? Why don't the people upstairs hurry up and open the city gate to welcome the army into the city!"
"You!" When Liu Yuliang heard this, he became very angry. He thought that he was a dignified bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion and the governor of Henan. He was also considered a first-rank official in the dynasty. The person below was just a fifth-rank Qianhu.
, How dare you speak to him like this? In the capital, he would have asked him to go home and eat himself. But this time is different from the past. After coming to Luoyang for so long, he has learned one thing, that is, nowadays, the sky
The land is huge, and the person with the most powerful sword is the most powerful person. If he, the dignified Governor of Henan, forcibly argued with this Qianhu, he would have the right to do so.
Liu Yuliang: "Okay. Just wait, and we will open the city gate for you!"
Kurogie urged: "Okay, hurry up. Hey... wait, we will open the city gate later, and we have to charge again."
It turned out that when Kurogane looked back inadvertently, he realized that his group was rushing too fast. The infantry who were originally following behind had not yet caught up. The passage that had just been opened was in danger of being blocked by the rogue bandits again. Kurogie
He was anxious and said loudly to the cavalry behind him: "The brothers at the back haven't come up yet, so we have to rush back. Do you have the confidence, brothers?"
At this time, the cavalry behind Heitie had lost more than two hundred riders after fighting all the way, and the remaining people were also very tired. But after hearing Heitie's words, they still shouted: "Kill the bandits without mercy!"
Heitie laughed and said: "Okay, brothers. Let's rush back and kill him seven times in and seven out!" After saying that, Heitie held up the saber that had already cut many holes. He turned his horse and headed towards
Then he rushed over.
The rumble of horse hooves resounded on the ground again, and two thousand cavalry were like a red torrent, crushing towards the east...
In front of the cavalry, Liu Zongmin was leading tens of thousands of infantry in a hurry, and he couldn't help but curse Li Guo, who was responsible for the interception.
"Li Guo, this idiot, asked him to stop the officers and soldiers, but he was so useless that he let the officers and soldiers in, causing me to fail. Now I have to wipe his ass."
At this moment, Liu Zongmin was indeed a little angry. He was commanding the bandits to attack Luoyang, and they were fighting vigorously. Suddenly someone came to report that reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty had suddenly arrived and had dispersed the troops led by Li Guo. Now their large group was heading towards
There was an influx of troops coming from the east gate, and Liu Zongmin, who received the report, had to rush over with more than 10,000 troops to join in the interception, trying to intercept the reinforcements outside the city, so he ran into Heitie's cavalry.
"kill!"
Kurogane roared angrily and raised his saber, and a huge head flew up into the air. When the head didn't hit the ground, Kurogie had already jumped over it and rushed towards another celebrity bandit. Behind him was the sharp knife.
Still following him closely, they continued to kill the enemies who dared to stand in front of them.
The outstanding performance of the Black Iron cavalry naturally attracted the attention of interested people. On the high ground three or four miles away from the east gate, Li Zicheng, who was leading the generals to watch the battle, looked at the cavalry in the distance who were constantly charging back and forth with a very ugly expression.
Because the cavalry had clearly rushed under the city wall and was able to take advantage of the chaos to enter the city. The bandits who could not react at the moment had no energy to pay attention to them. They could have entered the city in a big way. But the fact was obviously beyond everyone's expectation.
, the cavalry actually fought back under the leadership of his leader.
Looking at the leading knight, Li Zicheng couldn't help but "hum" and said coldly: "These people really think they are Zhao Yun on Changban Slope, do they want to join our rebel army seven times in and seven out?
?”
"King Chuang, how about you let me lead another team to intercept?" Hao Yaoqi on the side was eager to try.
"No, there are enough people there now, there is no need to send more manpower." Li Zicheng sighed and shook his head, looking back at Sun Kewang and Luo Rucai with a hint of guilt in his eyes: "I didn't expect this tomorrow.
The combat power of our army is so amazing, I hope your defeat against Rucai will not be unjust!"
Before seeing the combat power of the Qingzhou Army with his own eyes, if Li Zicheng was still dubious about the words of Sun Kewang and Luo Rucai, then now Li Zicheng has completely believed it. Just now, Li Guo led 50 million troops to intercept, but he was still intercepted.
The opponent's cavalry rushed outside the east gate. Such combat power could no longer be described as powerful, it could be said to be monster.
After Li Zicheng finished speaking, he said to a messenger on the side: "Go and tell General Liu immediately to stop attacking the city and use all your strength to deal with the Ming army. They must not be allowed to enter the city!"
Li Zicheng knew very well that if this amazingly powerful Ming army entered Luoyang, he would have to pay a high price if he wanted to capture Luoyang. The only way to resolve this crisis now is to annihilate this reinforcement force from afar.
Under the city wall.
After receiving Li Zicheng's order, the gangsters worked harder to press towards the east gate. A wave of gangsters swarmed in like chicken blood, which also put Heitie in charge of opening the road under great pressure.
, at this time they had been surrounded by countless rogues. The cavalry, which had lost their speed, did not have much advantage against the infantry, and soon their losses began to increase sharply.
A Mr. Bai, who was following Heitie closely, said loudly beside Heitie: "Sir, there are too many thieves and bandits, and our losses will be too great. If this continues, our brothers will soon be exhausted!"
In the continuous fighting, the losses of the cavalry led by Heitie also continued to increase. The original more than 2,000 cavalrymen had now lost more than 600, and almost everyone who remained was injured.
Kurogie, who was already red-eyed, shouted in a hoarse voice: "Even if we fight to the death, we have to charge, otherwise my army will be trapped inside, and we will all be finished by then. Stop talking nonsense and keep killing!"
While Kurogie was leading the cavalry to continue fighting, bursts of roaring sound finally came from the front. It turned out that the infantry behind had finally caught up.
"Fire!"
"Bang bang bang..."
"Fire!"
"Bang bang bang..."
Bursts of dull rifle sounds came from not far away, and the bandits who had been attacking them kept falling. Bursts of familiar white smoke came with the breeze. For the first time, Kurogane felt the smell of gunpowder smoke that he usually hated.
So charming.
"Brothers, reinforcements are coming, kill them quickly!"
The energetic cavalrymen waved their sabers vigorously and fought towards the east gate. With the joint efforts of the cavalry and infantry, the Qingzhou Army finally fought to the east gate. After arriving at the east gate, the five thousand infantrymen suffered heavy losses.
The cavalry guarded the center, divided into two rows, and continuously bombarded the bandits who dared to approach. Behind them, Cheng Kai was escorting the baggage battalion and artillery battalion.
There was no need for them to call the door at this time. Liu Yuliang, who was at the top of the city, quickly ordered the city gate to be opened to welcome the reinforcements. The first to enter the city were Lu Weiqi and Li Xianfeng and their guards, followed closely by the baggage and artillery battalions.
Seeing that the reinforcements of the Ming army had begun to enter the city, Li Zicheng, who was watching the battle from a distance, ordered with a stern face, "What are Li Guo and Liu Zongmin doing? The tens of thousands of troops can't even stop more than 10,000 troops. Go tell them if they let
The Ming army has entered the city, and I cannot spare them."
Li Zicheng couldn't help but be angry. The army of more than 100,000 people actually allowed the opponent's reinforcements to break into his own army, and then drove into the opponent's city with great arrogance. This was the first time in Li Zicheng's seven or eight years of military career.
, this shocked Li Zicheng, who always thought he knew the Ming army well.
"We must not let the Ming army enter the city so easily!" This was not only the idea of Li Zicheng, but also the idea of Liu Zongmin and Li Guo. They drove the hungry people to flock to the east gate one after another.
At this time, Pang Gang also took his own soldiers to cut off the rear in person. He divided more than a thousand soldiers into three waves, forming a small triple wave formation. He fired guns one after another to kill anyone who tried to get closer.
The enemy fell to the ground.
At this time, the Qingzhou Army formed a long queue. Although countless enemies were swarming outside the queue, the people in the queue were still lining up to enter the city in an orderly manner without any signs of panic.
Outside the east gate, Liu Zongmin and Li Guo continued to drive the hungry people forward to attack. As for the size of the casualties, they did not care. For them, the most indispensable thing was the hungry people. As long as a city was captured, the hungry people would
That's as much as you want.
Slowly, the corpses of the bandits gradually increased in front of the Qingzhou Army. The corpses were piled up in layers in front of the formation, and there was no telling how many there were. The bandits were also numb. They were just driven blindly by their respective leaders.
They rushed forward, and were beaten to death one after another.
Finally, half an hour later, the last sergeant from the reinforcements from Qingzhou entered the city, and the east gate of Luoyang City closed again with a creak.
