Chapter 291: Nanyang Falls
On this night, Zhang Lang, who surrounded Nanyang, was acting. But when the stars and moon were full of all the sounds were quiet, Zhang Lang ordered the three armies to quietly advance outside the three city gates, north and east, and lurk in the woods outside the city. Zhang Lang immediately looked up the city gate tower in the woods, and saw bright lights and people on the city walls. The Jiangdong army was very cautious and showed no sign of slacking off.
An officer rushed to Zhang Lang and clasped his fists and said, "General, the army is in place." Zhang Lang nodded.
Time gradually passed, but Lu Bu's army did not launch an attack on the city, as if waiting for something.
Suddenly, figures on the city gate tower swayed quickly, as if many people rushed up the city gate tower and fought with the defenders. The Lu Bu army outside the city could faintly hear the sound of fighting with the wind. After a while, a large number of torches were lit up on the city gate tower, and the city gate was opened.
Zhang Lang immediately waved the Fang Tian Painting Ji and led a hundred thousand Long Tao troops into the city.
Huang Gai was awakened as soon as he lie down with Yi. He heard the earth-shaking shouts from outside, and was shocked and picked up the big knife at his hand and rushed out. As soon as he went out, he met a general who was stumbled and ran over. The general hurriedly reported: "General is not good, Lu Bu's army has entered the city!"
Huang Gai couldn't believe it: "How is that possible!"
The general said, "It was those refugees who mingled with the spies of Lu Bu's army. They raided the north gate and opened the city gate." Huang Gai frowned and ordered, "Tell all departments to counterattack! Fight the Lu Bu's army out!" The general responded and ran down. Huang Gai hurriedly ordered people to bring the war horses, and at the same time ordered the guards to assemble. Huang Gai stepped on the war horses and led the guards to the north gate.
Huang Gai did a very good job in combat preparations, but as soon as the crisis occurred, the troops in the city took action as soon as possible, and rushed from all directions to try to push out the Long Tao army who entered the city.
Tens of thousands of infantry soldiers used shield players as a vanguard toward Lu Bu's army in a group manner. Faced with such a desperate posture, the heavy armored warriors in Long Tao's army came out of the battle and waved the two-meter-long long horse-slashing sword. The long horse-slashing sword raised the waves of swords. Sun Jian cut off the shield line and rushed into the enemy's clusters. The two sides started a melee. The heavy armored infantry waving the long sword of horse-slashing swords desperately, causing a bloody rain. All the enemy troops blocked in front of them were cut off with one knife.
The sword was radiant and stunning. Heavy armored infantry waved their horse-killing swords and stepped on the enemy's corpses and continued to advance! The Jiangdong army was also fearless and rushed forward one after another, killing and fighting with all their lives. The swords and spears in their hands kept hitting the heavy armor of the armored infantry. The sound of ping-pong sounds was heard, but it often only stirred up some sparks. The armored infantry was unstoppable, and the Jiangdong army's corpses were piled up like mountains of blood and flowed all over the streets!
The Jiangdong Army finally became timid and began to retreat.
A roar cannon suddenly sounded in Lu Bu's army. When the armored infantry heard the sound of the roar cannon, they immediately stopped chasing and scattered to both sides. Immediately afterwards, a huge roar came to the ground. Huang Gai, who was reorganizing his formation and preparing to counterattack, suddenly saw that the armored infantry of Lu Bu's army surged up, and his face changed. The deputy general next to him shouted in surprise: "Iron, Iron Armored War Cavalry!!"
The shadow of the famous tree, the armored war cavalry had been frightened before they even fought with the Jiangdong army!
Huang Gai first reacted. He knew that he had to block the impact of his opponent's armored cavalry first, otherwise it would be unknown whether he could survive, not to mention retreating. Huang Gai raised his big knife and shouted loudly: "Don't retreat! Those who are cowardly, kill! Shield player, spearman immediately formed a formation!"
After all, the Jiangdong Army was an elite soldier who had been well-trained for a long time. When he heard Huang Gai's order, he was afraid and subconsciously formed a battle formation. The shield player blocked the front line to form a shield wall. The spearman was behind him, and the soldiers of the army shouted in unison, and the originally fading momentum erupted again.
The armored warriors did not have full speed impact. After all, the terrain was narrow and it was difficult to fully promote their speed. The three thousand iron armored warriors advanced side by side, and their iron hooves rumbled the earth, like a rushing sea! The Jiangdong Army had never seen such a momentum, and they couldn't help but change their colors!
"Pilot!"
With a command, the armored cavalry threw the spear in their hands together, and there was a loud bang, shattering the flames and falling into the middle of the enemy. A crowd of people were surging and chaotic. The armored cavalry roared, like thunder breaking through the air. Everyone held a horse spear and a wolf mace and crashed into the middle of the enemy. In an instant, the mace danced one after another, and the eyes were bursting, and screams were heard!
The armored iron cavalry surged forward like a harvester, and the Jiangdong army fell in succession. Although they fought bravely, they were ultimately a mantis arm to get the chariot!
The Jiangdong army was frightened and turned around and fled, no longer obeying Huang Gai's orders. These warriors who were fighting to the death just now have become stray dogs who fled for the desperate situation.
The armored cavalry has 15,000 horse spears and maces to harvest their lives, and the rolling iron hooves constantly bring the enemy into the hooves, and the torrents are unstoppable!
At the same time, two troops attacking the West and East Gate along the city walls had successfully seized the city walls. The Cavalry Army and the War Bear Army rushed in from the East and West Gate.
The people hiding at home listened to the constant fighting sounds coming from outside, and were so scared that they could not tremble themselves. They stared at the gate, and were worried that the gate would be suddenly knocked open and the vicious soldiers rushed in.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Huang Gai quickly led the defeated generals to escape from the south gate.
Huang Zhong led the cavalry to chase the cavalry. The archers showed their power for the first time in the pursuit. They continued to chase the cavalry. The two sides did not fight each other in close combat. However, the Jiangdong Army was in the hands of the cavalry. The cavalry was flying like the wind and arrows passed like rain. This storm-like attack often caused heavy casualties before the Jiangdong Army could react.
Huang Zhong led his cavalry army to chase southwards, and after more than a hundred miles of fighting, he stopped his troops. At this time, there were only more than a thousand cavalry left beside Huang Gai.
As a result, Sun Jian was about to lead an army of 200,000 to Nanyang. At this moment, a scout rushed from the east.
The scout rushed to Sun Jian, turned over and dismounted, and reported with panic: "Lord, it's not good. Nanyang is lost, our army is wiped out!"
Everyone felt a bolt from the blue and didn't react for a long time.
Sun Jian stepped forward quickly, pulled the scout up and shouted: "You are talking nonsense! Are you not afraid of military law when lying about military information?"
The scout hurriedly said, "The villain dares not speak nonsense. This matter is absolutely true! Last night, Lu Bu's army broke into Nanyang, and General Huang Gai led his army to fight to the death. However, the iron-armored infantry and iron-armored cavalry of Long Tao's army were too terrible. Our army could not resist at all, and suffered heavy casualties! At this time, the other two legions broke into the city through the other two city gates. Our army could not resist and was defeated!"
