As soon as he saw Chu Jingzhong, Zheng Lang said sternly: "General, the traitors in Helan Chang'an have surrendered and falsely opened the city gate. Now the north gate has been lost. Nothing can be done. The situation is critical. Follow the general to break out as soon as possible. .”
Although Huangfu Wugui led the army to withdraw from Tai'an. However, Chu Jingzhong must always leave one or two available generals. And this Zheng Lang, he is the most important one among them.
"It's definitely Helan Chang'an!" Chu Jingzhong sighed.
Shen Lang said: "How could it be false? The last general had a fight with a thief general. The thief general was so powerful that he was no match for me. General, abandon the city quickly. It's too late!"
"It's really Helan Chang'an!" Chu Jingzhong's mood was extremely bad at this moment.
Helan Chang'an's surrender to the enemy means that the Zuozhen garrison has almost surrendered to the enemy. The power in their hands is getting less and less, while the power in the hands of the enemy is getting stronger and stronger.
Under the ebb and flow of one another, this battle situation has fallen into a completely unfavorable situation for them.
"Let's go! Retreat!" Chu Jingzhong did not hesitate.
This city can no longer be defended. Although Chu Jingzhong did not know how many enemy troops came this time, he understood that with the power of Tai'an City, when the city gate was deceived by Helan Chang'an, this moment It is no longer possible to defend the city.
After hastily gathering 300 soldiers, Chu Jingzhong didn't want to wait any longer, so he headed directly towards the east gate.
The enemy comes from the north gate, and both the south gate and the west gate can lead to the territory they control. Only the east gate leads to the enemy's territory.
Chu Jingzhong subconsciously thought that the enemy might set up ambushes at the south gate and west gate, so he directly chose the direction of the east gate to retreat.
Kankan rushed to the east gate and saw the torches inside the city gate were brightly lit. He met a group of people rushing back into the city from outside the city gate. Outside the city gate, in the dark night, the suspension bridge was creaking. When it rises, in the distance, there seems to be a faint fire, a vast expanse.
Zheng Lang rushed forward and asked anxiously: "Why are you closing the city gate?"
A sergeant guarding the gate shouted: "Sir, there are enemy troops ambushing outside the east gate. We can't get out."
"What?"
All the soldiers were shocked and pale. Zheng Lang even climbed up to the city tower to take a look. He saw the torches outside the city were brightly lit and dancing together. The sound of killing was loud and terrifying. There were no one knows how many people there were in the darkness.
The few servants who had fled all the way here were usually just talking and talking, but when they saw such a formation, they were so frightened that their bodies were like chaff and their souls were out of their minds.
"What should I do? What should I do!?" Zheng Lang murmured, somewhat at a loss.
At this moment, a burst of fire rose up, and a voice came from a distance, "Capture... the city gate, and if there is any... resister, hack to death..."
The black knights who had entered the city were already chasing after them.
"Hurry! Open the city gate! Let's get out!" Chu Jingzhong, who had been staring at the outside of the city from the city wall, shouted sharply at this time.
He didn't believe that the enemy really had so many troops!
Looking at the situation outside the city, Chu Jingzhong could guess how many enemy troops there were. This was just one city gate. If all the gates were added up, how many troops would the enemy have?
Including Han Xin's men and horses who came to attack Zuozhen, the enemy's strength is somewhat inflated, which is not in line with common sense!
Therefore, Chu Jingzhong decided to bet that these were just false moves by the enemy, and that the enemy simply did not have that many troops.
"Open the city gate! Open the city gate quickly!" the officer who received the order shouted loudly.
Chu Jingzhong led a group of men and horses towards the bottom of the city tower at the fastest speed. However, as soon as the city gate was opened, the enemy's pursuers had already arrived.
"Capture the city gate, and anyone who resists will be hacked to death." Qin Qiong roared.
"promise!"
A hundred soldiers behind him rushed forward like wolves and tigers, slashing at anyone they saw, extremely ferocious.
Qin Qiong held a pair of maces in his hands, wielding them like a god descending from heaven, killing the enemies who blocked him with fear.
"Quick! You and I will protect the generals and break out! The rest of us will follow me to stop the enemy generals!" Zheng Lang raised a spear, gritted his teeth, and shouted firmly.
"That thief general, with me here, you can't even think of passing through!" Zheng Lang raised his spear. Although there were less than a hundred people behind him, they blocked the center of the city gate. If Zheng Lang is not dealt with first, no one can chase him out of the city.
"Ha! The general will kill you first!" Qin Qiong said murderously.
Qin Qiong didn't know that the person who just ran away was Chu Jingzhong, but he could definitely guess that the person who just ran away was definitely a big fish.
The number of troops in their hands was tight. After all, they only had 3,000 men, so it was impossible to set up an ambush outside every city gate. Therefore, just as Chu Jingzhong guessed, it was just some false moves outside, just taking advantage of the darkness to scare the opponent.
Therefore, this time, many people may take the opportunity to escape, and it will be difficult to achieve perfection. Qin Qiong finally found a big fish this time, and he was not willing to let the other party run away like this.
"Thief general, if I am afraid of you, try my strength!"
"kill!"
Zheng Lang shouted loudly, and the sharp spear drew a strange arc in the air, splitting the cold air, and slashed Qin Qiong's right shoulder.
"Ding, Zheng Lang's Martial King skill is activated, Martial King +3, basic force 101, Black Sinking Spear +1, current force increased to 105."
"Hey! That little kid will also take advantage of my general's trump card!"
"Ding, Qin Qiong's Martial King skills are activated, Martial King +3, basic force 103 (peak 104), tile-faced gold-coated copper mace, tiger head chiseled golden gun +1, Huangqiao Penetrating Bone Dragon +1, the current force has increased to 108. "
Qin Qiong was not afraid, and he swung his mace with all his strength, hitting Zheng Lang's spear in the air, and the burning fighting spirit ignited in his eyes.
"Bang!"
The fierce sound of gold and iron instantly shattered Zheng Lang's eardrums. Zheng Lang suddenly felt a buzzing in his ears. He could no longer hear any sound. The incomparable power rolled back through the spear like a tide. .
The shock made his arms weak and his whole body numb, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on Zheng Lang instantly, making him unable to hold on and breathless.
"What a thief!" Zheng Lang scolded angrily, but he suddenly woke up. He was so anxious just now. Why would a skilled general like him have to fight with such brute force against his opponent!
After thinking about this, Zheng Lang no longer had the idea of fighting Qin Qiong head-on, and began to escape among the crowd. A long spear moved as he pleased, and the shadow of the gun flickered. It seemed wonderful, but the weapons of both sides But there was basically no contact.
