The county captain was overjoyed, as long as these three thousand people could rush over from behind.
The enemy is surrounded by front and rear and will definitely be defeated.
As long as the gate is opened and the soldiers outside the city can easily enter the city, Shouchun City will be completely destroyed!
The captain and the prime minister not far away also saw this scene and shouted to boost morale.
The soldiers on the city wall became more energetic and thought that victory was in sight.
At this moment, a large number of soldiers suddenly sprang out from both sides of the street in front of the three thousand people and lurked in the alley.
These people wore battle armor and held long swords. They were in an orderly formation and even had a formation of strong crossbows.
The commander's pupils shrank, these people had been on guard for a long time, the real force had been ambushing!
There was no time to think about the civilians' reactions.
If we don't attack with all our strength, these soldiers who insert themselves into the enemy's rear may be immediately surrounded and suppressed.
The captain and Cheng, who rushed to his side at this moment, also shouted loudly.
"Those people can't rush over!"
"Commander! We can only rely on ourselves for the city gate. If we don't capture the city gate, all the soldiers will die on this tower!"
The county captain was extremely anxious. At this moment, both sides were on the verge of life and death.
He wanted to remind the three thousand people, but the distance was too far. In such a chaotic battlefield, even if he shouted at the top of his lungs, the other party would not hear him.
Seeing that those people were about to enter an ambush.
The county lieutenant suddenly grabbed a long bow, lit the arrow with a torch, pulled the bow with all his strength and fired.
He was already perched on a high wall, but the arrow did not disappoint him and flew very far, plunging into the charging path of three thousand people.
The firelight illuminated the figures on both sides.
The few at the front of the three thousand soldiers obviously slowed down and became much more cautious.
The county captain was overjoyed and thought this could remind them.
The ambushing rebels also discovered this scene, and in order to prevent the three thousand people behind them from turning around and fleeing back to the city.
They had to rush out early.
Seeing this scene, the county lieutenant breathed a sigh of relief. At least these people were prepared and could retreat back, so that they would not dive in head-first and be easily wiped out by the enemy.
That's all he can help.
Then he turned around and prepared to lead his men to rush down the Great Wall. If he could not capture the city gate, the county guard outside the gate would order the withdrawal of troops.
But when he looked at the trail going down, the rebels were so densely packed with spearmen that the county lieutenant himself was not confident.
He turned around and shouted to the county guard outside the wall!
"In a quarter of an hour! If I don't open the city gate! Be sure to lead people to retreat!"
"Leave some seeds for the Huaiyang Army!"
The Sheriff clenched his fists below, gritted his teeth and nodded.
He knew this was the last moment.
The county captain gave the county guard a smile in the end, and with a small group of soldiers on the city wall, he roared and rushed towards the opponent.
Halfway through the rush, he looked towards the north worriedly.
The next moment it stopped suddenly.
The three thousand soldiers who were supposed to retreat did not even take a step back when faced with the ambushing enemy.
It's even like a sharp sword piercing the opponent's center.
The leading Imperial Guards were a little confused at this moment.
They originally discovered the ambush and wanted to take precautions.
But he didn't expect that the big guy next to him was like a fool. When he saw the enemy, he rushed forward without even looking at his back.
A dozen forbidden soldiers knew that this guy was an arrowhead and couldn't let him break it.
He could only bite the bullet and follow up and enter the enemy's formation.
In this way, three thousand soldiers rushed in at once.
The big guy was very excited at the moment.
He deeply remembered the promise made to him by the big man who kept his word.
As long as he obeys orders, he will definitely save his parents.
The order given to him by the general-looking man just now was to go to Nancheng and take the lead in drilling through the enemy army!
As long as it is completed, the big man will definitely fulfill his promise. After all, he promised to find a way to enter the city and brought people into the city.
What's even better is that before leaving, the big guy heard Chang Lin shouting, "You can take a wife home!"
The big man, who had been single for many years, felt excited.
It turns out that following orders can have so many benefits!
He looked at the group of short soldiers in front of him and roared without fear. He held the heavy ax in front of him like a tank and rushed forward with its head lowered.
The soldiers behind them did not hesitate at all, and followed them one by one into the crowd of rebels.
In this way, the originally orderly confrontation turned into a chaotic hand-to-hand fight.
The phalanx of bows and crossbows not far away immediately lost its effect.
They want to drop back and look for opportunities.
But he was horrified to find that the big man was not killing people at all. He directly carried out the order to penetrate the enemy army to the end.
He kept his head down and rushed forward. When the double ax couldn't hold up, he took a step back and swung in a circle.
Regardless of whether he hit anyone or not, he ran forward to push forward when the area around him was empty. He didn't repeat it a few times before he pushed directly into the rear of the rebels.
The dozen or so Imperial Guards were about to get out of touch, and they could no longer care about the other Huaiyang troops. At this time, the top priority was to rush to the city gate and open it.
They no longer kept their hands, the sleeve arrows on their arms, and the daggers on their waists.
All life-saving measures were used.
Quickly clearing away the people in front of him, a dozen people formed a small team and followed the gap behind the big man to kill them.
The officers on the city wall were stunned.
That big guy was like a bull, rampaging among the rebels.
The captain and the prime minister both stopped attacking the trail at this time and stared at this scene.
These people actually rushed over like this.
The already desperate situation was immediately reversed.
When the rebels at the city gate saw the enemy coming from behind, they didn't care about the city gate at all and turned around and picked up their weapons to defend themselves.
They left, but the battering ram outside the city did not stop.
At this moment, the county guard outside the city stared nervously at the city wall.
Quarter of an hour is approaching and there is still no news from the county captain. Do you want to withdraw the troops?
The county guard turned his head and scanned the entire battlefield outside the city.
The blood of the soldiers dyed the moat red.
He couldn't see the distance under the firelight, but the nauseating smell of blood in the air clearly told him that too many soldiers had died here.
Looking at the tired soldiers around him, the county guard knew that they had tried their best. They had already attacked the city for two hours, and the censor's requirements had been met.
The soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining military formations outside the city had at least attacked the city twice.
There aren't many of them left in total. If this continues, the Huaiyang Army will really all stay here.
The county guard gritted his teeth and prayed for a miracle, hoping that the city gate would move.
Time passed bit by bit, looking at the solid door, he felt sad in his heart.
I'm afraid the county lieutenant will never come back!
Just when he was about to wave his hand and reluctantly ordered the withdrawal of troops.
The sound of the battering ram hitting the city gate for the last time suddenly changed.
The dull sound was a little crisp, as if something originally solid had become hollow.
The soldiers saw hope and continued to hit regardless.
Then the thick door suddenly began to shake.
The county guard stared blankly at the door that crashed to the ground.
Before he could react, several rebels flew out without even touching the ground!
A strong man he had never seen before wielded a giant ax, and like a giant beast, he instantly cleared away the enemies behind the door.
The county guard was stunned, blinking and wondering what was going on, whether the other party was an enemy or a friend.
Then a head suddenly stuck out from the city wall.
The lieutenant shouted excitedly!
"Soldiers! The enemy army has been defeated! Charge me quickly!"
When the county guard saw that the boy was not dead, he suddenly trembled with excitement.
"Shouchun City is broken! Shouchun City is really broken!"
