Just when Li Jilong led an army to surround Yang Zaixing. Li Cunxu and Song Jingang led three thousand elite cavalry from Hedong, wearing the clothes and armor of Sui soldiers, and galloped across the plain, heading straight for Hanjiacang City.
As the sun set in the west, this army finally arrived outside Cangcheng. I saw that the gate of Cangcheng was closed tightly, the suspension bridge was pulled up high, and several groups of soldiers patrolled back and forth on the city wall. Although the city was still heavily guarded, the number of troops on the city wall had obviously become sparse.
Li Cunxu was overjoyed when he saw this and was about to shout a message to deceive the city. But I saw a head suddenly protruding from the city wall, shouting below: "Where are you from? Now that General Yang Zaixing is besieged by the Tang army, General Meng Gong has dispatched soldiers and horses from all over to rescue. Why don't you go to rescue?" General Yang Zaixing came to Hanjiacang City instead?"
"Duke Ming is really good at predicting things!"
Li Cunxu was overjoyed when he heard the man shouting. He immediately urged his horse forward and shouted to the man: "Brother, we are subordinates of General Wei Lu. We originally followed General Meng Gong out of the city to rescue General Yang Zaixing, but after leaving the city, we After that, General Meng Gong felt that it was inappropriate to dispatch the garrison of Hanjiacang City, so he temporarily sent us to reinforce."
"Oh, I see!"
The man nodded as if he had some understanding, looked at Li Cunxu and his party up and down, and suddenly said: "Since you are the subordinates of General Wei Lu, you must know General Chen Liangsi, he is my biological brother. Woolen cloth!"
When Li Cunxu heard this, his face suddenly grew long, and he yelled at the top of the city: "Fart, there is no deputy general named Chen Liangsi under General Wei Lu, only one deputy general named Zhao Liangsi. And he escaped from Hebei. refugees, the whole family starved to death on the way to escape, where did my brother come from?"
Song Jingang, who was behind Li Cunxu, secretly rejoiced: "Thanks to Du Ruhui for having the foresight to inform me and Li Cunxu of the situation of Wei Lu's several lieutenants before setting off, otherwise the secret would have been exposed right now."
After hearing Li Cunxu's scolding, the man at the top of the city scratched his head apologetically and said with a smile on his face: "Brother, don't blame me. There is a large amount of military supplies stored in Cangcheng. It is inevitable that people will miss you. We are also here. Just in case. Come on, open the city gate!"
With a "crunch", the originally closed city gate of Hanjiacang slowly opened. Li Cunxu suppressed the excitement in his heart, stretched out his hand and said: "Brothers, enter the city!"
After receiving Li Cunxu's order, the three thousand Tang troops all tightened their weapons, reined in their horses, and marched slowly towards the city gate.
"Brothers, charge!"
Seeing that he was only a few dozen steps away from the city gate, Li Cunxu was about to give the order to seize the city, but he heard a roar behind him, and a strong man had already rushed into Cangcheng with a horse and a sword.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Xun Xiang has entered the brave state, the force is +4, the basic force is 92, and the current force has increased to 96."
"Ding dong, the fourth-dimensional ability of phase-finding has been detected. The command is 85, the force is 92, the intelligence is 73, and the politics is 68."
After Xun Xiang shouted, three thousand Tang troops immediately broke out and rushed toward the city gate with shouts. The horse's hooves rolled up, like a flood that was opening and unstoppable. When Li Cunxu saw this, he immediately looked at Song Jingang angrily. Xun Xiang was his confidant. Without his instructions, how could Xun Xiang dare to grab the credit?
Song Jingang's expression was calm, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he said: "General Li, Xun Xiang is a little impatient, but he also has good intentions. Now our primary goal is to capture Hanjiacang, let's put other things aside first!" As he spoke, he patted his war horse and rushed towards Cangcheng.
Li Cunxu snorted angrily and followed suit on his horse.
Xun Xiang was eager to win and rushed into the city first. Just when he was feeling proud, he suddenly fell into a pit with both men and horses. The pit was filled with antler guns, bamboo sticks, thorns and other sharp objects, which immediately stabbed Xunxiang to death in the pit.
"Ding Dong, the death of Xiangxiang has been detected. The host has gained 9 soul points. The current total number of soul points has increased to 395."
As if it was a signal, just as Xun Xiang fell into the pit and died, a dense sound of piercing the sky suddenly sounded in the sky, and countless feather arrows streaked across the sky, tilting down towards the Tang army that was charging in.
Puff puff! ! !
The sound of sharp arrows entering the body was endless, and the Tang army that was rushing forward was hit head-on. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of knights fell to the ground after receiving arrows. The neighing of the war horses and the screams of the soldiers were intertwined and resounded through the sky.
"Hahaha, you are a shameless Tang thief, Meng Gong has been waiting here for a long time!"
Accompanied by a hearty laugh, countless crossbowmen suddenly emerged from the originally sparse city wall. Among them was a man with a tall figure and a majestic look. It was Meng Gong, the lord of Luoyang City.
When Li Cunxu and Song Jingang saw this, their expressions changed. They hurriedly turned their horses' heads and shouted loudly: "The Sui army has an ambush. Brothers, retreat quickly!"
"How can it be so easy to run away?"
Meng Gong sneered, stretched out his hand, and the crossbowmen re-cocked their arrows, aiming at the Tang Army cavalry below and continuing to shoot. Arrows rained down like locusts. This area had been carefully treated by Meng Gong and became empty. The Tang army's cavalry had nowhere to hide and almost became a living target for the Sui army. From time to time, some people were hit by arrows and fell off their horses, falling to the ground and dying.
"Quick, get out!"
Li Cunxu and Song Jingang desperately waved their weapons to fire arrows. Their horses ran very fast and ran straight to the city gate to escape.
Upon seeing this, Meng Gong reached out and took out a yellow flag and waved it vigorously a few times. Nearly a thousand infantrymen rushed down from the corridors on both sides and formed a formation to block the city gate. Nearly a hundred sword and shield wielders, wearing thick armor and holding heavy shields, lined up at the front. Behind the sword and shield hand were all long spear hands. They hid behind the shield and only raised the long spear in their hands above their heads. They didn't care about anything and they stabbed in front of them.
The Sui army's long spear seemed to have been specially lengthened. The Tang army's cavalry had already been knocked off their horses by the long spear before they could rush to the shield bearer.
"Damn it, get out of my way!"
Seeing the heavy casualties among his troops, Li Cunxu became furious and Wu Shan charged forward. When he ran to the shield formation, several long spears stabbed him from the front. Li Cunxu gritted his teeth and reached out to pat the horse on his crotch. The horse quickly stood up and hid in an instant.
Li Cunxu suddenly pinched the horse's belly again, and the war horse neighed, used its hind hooves, and jumped into the crowd with a leap.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Li Cunxu has entered a frantic fighting state, his force is +4, his base force is 95, and his current force has increased to 99."
Li Cunxu rode his horse and jumped into the Sui army. He immediately vented his anger. He waved his horse spear like a violent storm, slashing left and right, destroying everything. In a short time, more than twenty Sui soldiers were killed by his horse. Under the influence.
