When Li Jing saw Liu Shouqian using a coffin with gunpowder, he dug a hole under the city gate and successfully exploded the north gate of Guiyi City into the sky, and he couldn't help but praise him.

Liu Shouqian kept saying modestly, claiming that this method was a secret skill mastered by the cannon camp. However, it was obvious that his face was indeed red at this time, and he felt a little proud. The prince gave him a day, and he broke through the North Gate in less than an hour. This battle completely allowed him to hold the temporary position of commander of the Third Legion. In this way, his ability and extraordinaryness were shown among the generals.

"The city defense has been broken, and the enemy will not last long. In order to avoid losses, we should first release the siege in the west to prevent the enemy from breaking the dead."

Jing Xiang said on the side that he had the advantage in his troops. Now that the city gate is broken, no matter how hard the defenders hold on, they will definitely not be able to defend. At this time, he has begun to consider how to minimize the losses.

At this moment, another series of explosions came.

At the gap in the north city gate, Liu Rengong had personally led more than a thousand elite troops to form a shield here, trying to block the charge Northeast Army to death.

However, although the shield formation was strong, the soldiers of the Longxiong Army, who were surging in the tide, quickly approached the city gate under the cover of the group of archers in the rear. When they reached ten feet apart, Guo Xiong, who was rushing in front, shouted, and had tied five thunderbolt fires into bunches, ignited them and threw them hard.

Guo Xiong, who had excellent results in bomb drop training in the military academy, even though he threw the cluster thunder fire at this time, he still threw it into the defender shield formation with great accuracy.

With a loud bang, the five thunder fires tied together exploded. They were much stronger than the one alone. In an instant, they took away the lives of five or six defenders. A piece of broken limbs flew into the sky.

The soldiers rushing behind also began to pull the thunder fire leads one by one to the ignition fuse wrapped around their left wrists, ignite them, and then threw them to the enemy.

One after another, two-pound long-handled thunderbolt bombs fell into the defending army like meteorites all over the sky, and exploded violently one after another.

The soldiers of Dingbadu, who were blocking the gap, were all veterans who had been through battle for a long time, but from Liu Rengong to the small soldier, they had never experienced such a fighting style.

A long distance away, their arrows were shot out, and only a small number of Liao soldiers were knocked down.

But under the cover of arrows and rains from behind, the Liao soldiers dropped bombs in shock, and the thousand defenders in front of the gap were already dead, and the rest were all looking at their broken arms and limbs and howled in a terrifying manner.

The rest of the people scattered, and were already scared and fled.

Liu Rengong avoided a rotating broken helmet, wiped the blood rain on his face, gasped heavily, and ran back with more than a hundred people around him in a frightened heart. Although many generals already knew that it was safest to lie on the ground when facing the flying fire.

But in the current situation, these flying fires are not fired by aircraft. However, every soldier has them in his hands. He rushed and threw them directly, and his power was unexpectedly no weaker than the flying fires of aircraft. Especially when a coffin exploded the entire city gate, this power is unheard of.

Turning around and looking at the distance, Li Kuanwei, who was originally leading troops to reinforce, saw this violent explosion, not only did not come to block the gap, but turned around and left. The Li flag was so conspicuous in the smoke of gunpowder that many of the other soldiers fled.

There were crowds of soldiers who fled everywhere, and the tragic howlings of casualties on the ground were ignored.

Liu Rengong's heartbeat was fierce. Even a powerful general like him was so panicked and embarrassed in the face of the fierce fire attacks of the Liao soldiers. It is even more conceivable that ordinary soldiers could imagine. If he was guarding a state city, no matter how powerful Li Jing's flying fire was, it would definitely not be possible to achieve such results at once. But now the damn thing is in the small city of Guiyi. A coffin fire blew the city gate into the sky, and then the Liao soldiers took advantage of the situation and rushed in.

This momentum directly disintegrated the morale of most people, especially at this time, there were still three troops in the city.

He looked around, shouting, and letting people set up a formation to defend in front of the gap again. As long as he could hold the gap, things could still be done.

But at this time, the soldiers in the city had already been scared by the continuous explosions and fled everywhere. Especially when they saw that Li Convey had led his troops to escape here with flags, countless people rushed to escape.

Liu Shouwen said angrily: "Li Kuanwei has fled to the west gate. I heard that Li Jing has transferred the besieged troops outside the west gate to the north gate."

A flash of lightning flashed in Liu Rengong's heart, "The Ximen is a dead end that Li Jing deliberately opened. We have tens of thousands of people. If we guard the city, we can still hold on. If we leave the city and flee, no matter how fast we run with our legs, we can still be faster than Li Jing's 40,000 cavalry."

The two brothers Liu Shouwen also woke up at this time. Li Jing had enough troops and had already broken the northern city. Why did he need to transfer the guards of the West Gate? There was only one reason. Li Jing deliberately let go of the West Gate. The so-called siege must be sieged in order to disintegrate the fighting spirit in the city. If he escaped at this time, he would not escape too many cavalry to pursue him.

"Now that Li Kuanwei fled, his morale and morale have collapsed. Guiyi City is no longer defended. Li Jing has a 70,000 army and 40,000 cavalry are here. What should we do?" Liu Shouguang looked sad. This was already in a dead end.

To be honest, there are many soldiers in the city, with only 23,000 soldiers and 33,000 auxiliary soldiers, and there are still thousands of old and young people in the city. No matter how strong the Liao soldiers are, they can hold on for two or three days. But less than an hour after the war started, the entire army was already taken away. With Li Kuanwei taking the lead, the whole situation is completely impossible.

Seeing the resistance of the North City defenders became weaker and weaker, Li Jing put down the Qianli Mile Mile, turned to the order to the messenger beside him, "The messenger orders to withdraw the east gate encirclement troops."

The war started less than an hour, but the Northeast Army had already broken the enemy's determination and morale with its unlimited use of firearms. However, in this short period of time, the infantry attacking head-on also suffered heavy casualties, and it is estimated that at least thousands of people had fallen into the fierce battle.

Li Jing felt heartbroken when he saw it, and he would feel heartbroken every time he fell.

At this time, he would never be willing to force the defenders to fight street battles.

He had a total of 40,000 elite cavalry, so what Li Jing needed to do now was to let the guards see a glimmer of life and force them to escape. As long as they fled, with the morale of the three troops in the city, they would inevitably break through and flee.

As long as it collapses, who can still stop the pursuit of 40,000 cavalrymen on this wide North China Plain?

The cavalry sent orders to go down with orders. After the encirclements in the west of the city retreated, the encirclements in the east of the city also retreated.

No one is willing to fight to the death if there is a glimmer of hope.

Although most officers understand that this is Li Jing's plan.

But even though I know this, but others have already begun to escape, what can I choose?

While releasing the siege between the east and west sides, the Northeast Army also began to strengthen the attack of the North City. One after another, one after another, threw it over one after another like a piece of thunder fire. Even if Liu Rengong and Zhang Zeshen had joined together and kept gathering their troops, they still couldn't resist and retreated step by step.

More and more soldiers began to flee in various places, and the speed of gathering was far less than that of escaping.

Zhang Xingze immediately shouted to Liu Rengong: "This won't work. Envoy Liu, you can't do anything anymore, let's take it away!"

Liu Rengong calmed down at this time. He glanced at the Liao soldiers who were advancing in front of him. He turned to Zhang Xingze and said, "General Zhang retreated first, and he led his troops behind the palace."

Hearing this, Zhang Xingze was very grateful. He immediately clasped his fists and thanked him, hurriedly slapped the horse and fled eastward with the remaining soldiers of the headquarters. Liu Shouwen watched Zhang Xingze lead the soldiers to escape, and hurriedly said to his father: "Sir, why don't you go together!"

Liu Rengong sneered, "There are many people and the target is big, let's go to the west."

At this time, Liu Rengong had five or six thousand cavalry beside him, basically all of them were Mozhou soldiers. Two thousand cavalry basically had no losses and were gathered around him at this time. However, he did not take all the soldiers to the west gate, but asked a general from Dingba Du to lead thousands of infantry to the west gate. He pretended to be the rear of the palace, but when the infantry left, he immediately said in a low voice: "Let's go to the south gate and go!"

Liu Rengong knew at this time how difficult it was to escape under the pursuit of 40,000 cavalrymen. He was reluctant to let the child fall into traps. At this time, he not only let Li Kuanwei and Zhang Xingze attract the pursuers for him, but also sold thousands of infantry under his command that were obviously difficult to escape. He rushed straight to the south gate with only two thousand cavalrymen. With these two thousand cavalry, there was not a chance.

"Prince, please let us lead the cavalry to pursue it!" Seeing the defenders in the city rushing out of the city in a crowd and fleeing in all directions, Wang Yanzhang couldn't help but step forward to ask for a fight.

Li Jing nodded and gave several orders. He sent Wang Yanzhang, Gao Si to follow the three generals of Yang Shihou, and each led a cavalry and cavalry to the three passes south of Guiyi, including Waqiao Pass and other passes, quickly attacking and seizing the three passes to prevent deserters from entering the two states of Moying. He also sent Li Si'an, Wang Tan and Gao Jichang to lead the cavalry of their headquarters to pursue the deserters in the east, west and south respectively. Then, he ordered the 30,000 infantry to divide half of the troops and horses to encircle the four city gates again, and the remaining three troops directly entered the city to clear the remaining troops.

Under the new military order, 15,000 infantry invaded the city in large numbers, while 40,000 cavalry left only the two soldiers of Shengjie Army and the Black Flag Army, and the rest went to pursue. At this time, Liu Rengong and others had already escaped from the city, but there were still tens of thousands of war soldiers and almost all the auxiliary soldiers in the city.

These people could not rob the various units while escaping, and were now completely trapped in the city.

At this time of the battle, there was no suspense. Although there were nearly 40,000 troops in the city, the three leaders, the main generals and elite soldiers had already fled. How could these people dare to fight? In less than half an hour, the remaining soldiers and horses in the city had abandoned their weapons and surrendered.
