There was already a melee on the city wall, and many people rushed towards the bottom of the city wall.
They thought about opening the city gate from the inside and letting in the soldiers from outside the city.
Cao Kang, on the other hand, was guarded by many soldiers and retreated step by step into the city.
But Cao Kang was originally wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, which was very eye-catching on the entire city wall. Ma Yaohan, who was watching from a distance, discovered this situation and sent his troops all the way towards Cao Kang. Rush and kill.
Many soldiers who rushed up the city wall also discovered Cao Kang on the side.
Gradually they surrounded Cao Kang.
Cao Kang was shocked. He originally thought that he would be able to boost morale after coming to the city wall, but he never expected that the fight would end like this.
Now Cao Kang has completely fallen into the sea of people, even if he wants to retreat.
There was a steady stream of soldiers coming up from the front, and countless soldiers from behind were rushing towards the city wall. Cao Kang and the others were caught in the middle.
Although he was surrounded by people, the situation was already very dangerous for Cao Kang. The people on the outermost layer around him were constantly falling down, and there were fewer and fewer people around him.
"quick!"
"Cover the Emperor and retreat into the palace!"
A guard captain shouted loudly.
Little did he know that this shout was just like an order.
Whether it was Cao Kang's troops or Ma Yaohan's troops, they all rushed towards Cao Kang.
"Kill!"
"The Dog Emperor is over there!"
"Kill the Dog Emperor!"
The people on Ma Yaohan's side shouted excitedly.
Before Cao Kang could say anything, he was crowded by several people and retreated towards the back.
At this time, the city wall was already full of Ma Yaohan's troops.
Moreover, many people were fighting at the city gate, and they were about to open the city gate.
"Hahaha!"
"God help me!"
"I, Ma Yaohan, am going to ascend the throne!"
Ma Yaohan danced excitedly as he saw that their current attack was effective and the city gate was about to be opened.
I didn’t expect that I would actually succeed this time.
Thanks to his decisive decision, he decided to rebel immediately and rushed in with his hundreds of thousands of troops.
For them, what they are waiting for now is such a result.
After more than ten days of arduous encirclement and suppression, a breakthrough was finally made at this time.
"kill!"
"Everyone, rush to the city gate!"
"As long as we enter the city, the world will be ours!"
"follow me!"
Ma Yaohan roared and led the remaining men and horses towards them.
Cao Kang, on the other hand, looked at Ma Yaohan and the others who were getting closer and closer from a distance, feeling despair.
Mudd!
Speaking of which, he is the emperor who has reigned for the shortest time, right? How many days have I been the emperor? How come you have become the dog emperor in your mouth?
I wonder what the history books will write about me?
A rebellion? Or a revolution? Or is it a farce?
"emperor!"
"Look!"
"Someone is coming!"
"Someone is coming from behind!"
Just when Cao Kang was despairing, suddenly the people around him pointed in the distance and shouted.
Cao Kang quickly looked over there.
I saw people and horses all over the mountains and plains rushing towards the city gate.
On the front flag, a big Liu character was flying in the wind.
They are Liu Xiu's men!
It's reinforcements!
"Reinforcements are coming!"
"General Liu's men are here!"
"Everyone, hold on and fight back the rebels!"
Cao Kang raised his arms and shouted.
When Cao Kang's men saw the arrival of reinforcements, they changed their attitude and started killing with their swords.
When Ma Yaohan's men heard Cao Kang's words, they looked at the smoke and dust billowing in the distance and were shocked.
Even Ma Yaohan, who had just been about to rush towards the city gate, heard the sound behind him. When he looked back, his whole body felt cold.
Didn't it mean that there is still nearly a hundred miles to go?
How could they kill him in such a short period of time?
Finished? !
Fall short!
Now Ma Yaohan and his men only have 70,000 to 80,000 troops left, and they are no match for Liu Xiu's 200,000 troops.
And the problem now is that when Ma Yaohan and the others saw the situation here, they lost all fighting spirit. Many people who had not yet climbed onto the city wall had even retreated and fled for their lives.
For Ma Yaohan now.
There is nothing left to do.
He raised the knife and was about to kill himself, but he was held tightly by several soldiers around him.
"General!"
"Quickly retreat!"
"It's too late to rush into the city now!"
"quick!"
"We immediately gathered the remaining troops and escaped for the time being to prepare for the funeral!"
"quick!"
"Everyone, retreat quickly, cover the general, retreat!"
The soldiers around him protected Ma Yaohan and escaped to the other side.
…
Sanhe County.
"grown ups!"
"The latest news in Xiazhou!"
Inside the yamen, a soldier hurried in and handed Zhang Bao a letter.
"Um?"
"Is it a letter from Fan Hanzhong?"
"They didn't chase?"
Zhang Bao frowned.
"It turns out that Ma Yaohan was defeated, but this time, Ma Yaohan and the others did not fight against Liu Xiu and the others, but fled directly."
"Liu Xiu and his men have not lost any troops. What Fan Hanzhong means is that there is no need to attack now and there is no advantage. He would like to ask me what I mean."
Zhang Bao said as he handed the letter to Huang Chenzhi and others.
"I didn't expect that Ma Yaohan was so powerful and almost captured the capital. It would be great if Ma Yaohan really captured the capital. Then Liu Xiu would fight them again. When they are both injured, if we take action , that would be perfect.”
It's a pity that Ma Yan'er is on the side.
"Forget it, can everything still go as we want?"
"Tell Fan Hanzhong to withdraw thirty miles, return to our Hezhou, and wait to see what happens in Xiazhou."
"Also, let Zhao Gao come see me."
Zhang Bao thought for a while and said to Huang Chenzhi.
Some time ago, Zhao Gao and his Baowei Thirty-Six Cavalry came back one after another.
Except for one person who fell off the cliff and suffered some injuries while escaping, the others were all fine.
It's just that they almost all went in a big circle and took a little longer.
For those who rode Baowei's Thirty-Six, they pretended to be hunters, beggars, wandering doctors, and emperor's emissaries along the way, and finally came back.
But he didn't let those people find out.
"grown ups!"
"You called us?"
After a while, Zhao Gao and the others walked in.
