That night, the eldest prince had nightmares again and again, and his sleep was very restless.
However, something more disturbing happened again.
As soon as the genius was revealed, Ling Yue once again came to the city with troops.
At the same time, on Xu Lang's side, the troops arranged in a perfect glyph pattern just blocked the enemy troops coming from the direction of Pingjiang. The two sides were fighting each other, and it was very lively. However, the enemy army was exhausted from afar. After a few rounds, they abandoned thousands of people and retreated. Xu Lang's men, after all, were unfamiliar with the terrain, so they didn't pursue it.
This small episode only slightly delayed Xu Lang's attack time.
After entering the northern suburbs of the city, Changsha is not only a vast area, but also has no danger to defend.
Xu Lang pulled out the 10,000 Qingqi that had rested all night and charged toward the heart of Changsha County with great force. As long as Ling Yue's army is attacking in front, he believes that the eldest prince's rear will not be so easy to defend.
Before that, he still did not forget to send people to distribute tens of thousands of Anmin notices at night. The attacker's top priority is to attack the city's heart. He must let the people of Changsha know that those who came to take Changsha are not unjust. He also recounted some of Prince Ping's sins. Although this actually had nothing to do with the eldest prince, it was enough to make the people of Changsha feel hesitant. This would, to a certain extent, resolve the eldest prince's attempt to drag the people into trouble. countermeasures.
In fact, many people started discussing last night, is what Xu Lang said true, or is what the eldest prince said true? Both sides describe the other as an unjust teacher, so who should we support? Of course, some of them don't want to wade into troubled waters. They simply run away if they can, and hide if they can't.
This situation was obviously beyond the eldest prince's expectation.
Ten thousand qingqi rushed over like a tide. The 20,000 soldiers in the north of Changsha who formed a stepped defense under the eldest prince, somewhat distrustful, insisted on pulling out and fighting these 10,000 qingqi.
"put!"
The commanding general was indeed quite knowledgeable and ordered his sergeants to shoot at the enemy cavalry regularly.
After all, this is not a plain area. Their archers scattered in fan-shaped shapes on various hilltops did have some effect at first. One by one, knights were shot off their horses.
However, they underestimated the enemy's will and combat effectiveness. How could ten thousand Qingqi be able to retreat with just three or two arrows?
Therefore, only two or three rounds of arrows were fired, and the enemy cavalry had already galloped past their ambush position like the wind, facing directly their robes who were waiting in full formation.
These enemy cavalry were really a little arrogant. They had already run into the encirclement, but they didn't panic at all.
"kill!"
The leading enemy general shouted, waved his long sword and rushed over first.
The world seemed to be shaken at this moment.
Thousands of horses were galloping, the wind was flying, and the archers were in a daze. They had never seen such a formation.
Soon, another round of arrows was fired at the enemy cavalry from all directions.
However, no one is backing down.
"Kill!"
When the enemy cavalry broke through the rain of arrows and rushed towards them, the generals guarding the formation also roared.
For a time, thousands of sounds were mixed and intertwined, and many Changsha soldiers fell with confusion and regret in their eyes.
The Northwest Iron Cavalry is so terrifying!
Three thousand cavalry and ten thousand infantry, even with their swords, shields, and spears and halberds, could not stop the trampling of these ten thousand light cavalry. In less than half a stick of incense, all of Changsha's cavalry had been cut off their horses, and the infantry formation was even in pieces.
Finally, the stunned archers were the first to retreat. There was no reason for them to hold on while there was still a chance to escape from this Shura field.
Xu Lang, who arrived later, smiled faintly when he saw their figures running away in embarrassment.
