total war broken

245 Chapter 335
Zhang Xianzhong's eyes were cold and heroic. He looked at the sentry who was delivering the order in front of him. With a look of helplessness in his eyes, he said: "The main force of Lu Xiangshengxuan is here." He looked solemnly, looked at the adopted son beside him, and took a deep look at the city. .

At this time, a bloody thief rushed over and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, General Liu is dead!"

Hurrah, all the bandit leaders looked over, Zhang Xianzhong stared fiercely at the city wall, his heart ached like a knife, and he wished he could go to the city to cast himself, but reason told him that if he continued to beat him, he would be punished. The Xuanda troops behind flanked each other.

"Retreat..." Zhang Xianzhong resentfully swallowed back the sour blood welling up in his heart. The pain of losing his adopted son made him unspeakably sad, but this is not the time for him to show such an expression. After taking a look at his adopted sons, he left without looking back.

All the thieves seemed to have narrowly escaped death, with expressions on their faces as if they had finally left this terrifying place.

**********
The sand and dust covered the sky, and the sky was filled with yellow sand. The ground trembled slightly. The cavalry, thousands of cavalry, looked like a thin black line from a distance, pouring in from the horizon. They were wearing iron-studded cotton armor. , the cotton armor is very thick and has always been used to protect against cold. The weapons in their hands are all excellent sabers, and many people are equipped with horse bows.

A mile further back are the infantry, some of them are wearing iron armor, holding long swords in their hands, with crossbows and arrows on their backs. The other group is dressed in different clothes, wearing black clothes, and many of them are wearing rattan armor. The weapons in hand are mainly wolf guns, shotguns, and javelins. Here are wolf soldiers. The Guangxi wolf soldiers fight first with bird guns, then with iron standards (poisoned javelins), and finally with wolf guns to defend against the enemy.

As for the cavalry in front, the leader was Lu Guanlong, who looked anxious, and said: "Uncle, come on, General Qin is stationed in Nanyang City. If we arrive a quarter of an hour earlier, General Qin will have an extra chance of surviving." ah"

The sturdy middle-aged man on the side, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, his face full of determination, shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "I'm afraid it's impossible, he only has two thousand troops, how can he resist Zhang Xianzhong's [-] old thieves, how can he resist? ?” He guessed that Zhang Xianzhong had already broken through the encirclement, and he was already planning to fight in pursuit this time when he went north.

"Yes, Major General, you also understand the strength of the Southern Army, haha" a man beside him was wearing armor, the inner uniform was black, and his skin had a hint of dark yellow. A trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and said: "The inland guards are corrupt, how can Zhang Xianzhong be able to fight against the elite?"

"But, Brother Qin, he defeated Liu Guoneng, foster father, this can't be fake," Lu Guanlong said, with anger in his tone, "He defeated Liu Guoneng from Jiangbei, this can't be fake, uncle! "

Lu Xiangsheng stroked his beard and gave a wry smile, "Jiangbei Liu Guoneng?" He had also seen the battle report, and after his analysis, he probably was defeated by Zuo Liangyu before, and then the remnant soldiers were defeated by this kid. He would never believe this People can have the strength to defeat Liu Guoneng, but he just took advantage of it, smiled and continued to move forward.

Beside Teng Yi, the chieftain of Guangxi Wolf Soldiers also nodded and said, "Yes, General."

At this time, the sentry sentry suddenly ran towards this side and said: "Report, General, General, Zhang Xianzhong's troops ahead are heading southeast?"

Everyone was surprised. Lu Xiangsheng originally thought that Zhang Xianzhong would have gone north after capturing Nanyang. Why did he suddenly turn back? Wasn't Zuo Liangyu's army in the southeast?

"Let me just say that offering thieves can't break through Nanyang." Lu Guanlong said, while Lu Xiangsheng shook his head. He didn't believe that Xiaochuan could hold the city. What happened?Said, "Let's go to Nanyang!" He guessed that another elite from the Nine Sides had arrived, or he had other plans.

"My lord? Shouldn't we go to the southeast now?" Teng Yi said, with a strange taste in his tone.

"General Teng, we should tie our pockets tightly at this moment. Zuo Liangyu's [-] army will be fine." He said and continued to move forward. He still has confidence in Zuo Liangyu, a local warlord. You can't beat him. But with your [-] troops standing there, no matter what, you can hold back the enemy. Now he wants to send troops to guard the main road of transportation in Nanyang.

By the way, let's see what is the reason for this Zhang Xianzhong to retreat. He is rational and does not believe in miracles. Perhaps he has not believed in miracles since he was a soldier. He has never believed in such a miracle of [-] wins to [-], and he will never believe it. Soldiers should be down-to-earth.

Tata, the sun shone down from the city wall, corpses, full of corpses covered the ground as far as the eye could see, from under the city wall there were piles of corpses, some were about to be as high as the city wall, and some There were four rows of majestic shield chariots, the shield chariots were beaten to pieces, and the corpses on them were already piled up near the shield chariots. There was a strong smell of blood in the air. The originally muddy yellow moat had turned red at this moment. , The crimson moat exudes a soaring bloody smell.

Soldiers, the soldiers of the Tuntian Army stood scattered outside the city, looking very scattered. They collected the corpses of the rogues and the armor of the rogues. Although they looked tired, they all looked firm and hopeful. They collected the armor and weapons. There are also various firearms, very serious.

Si!There was a sound of gasping, and Lu Xiangsheng and others felt their eyes glazed over and shocked. Looking at this Shura-like battlefield, it was hard for them to imagine that such a tragic battle had taken place in the past few days, and how many elite thieves were attacking this place. Nanyang City, the intensity of this siege battle!Lu Xiangsheng looked at the Ming soldiers who were collecting armors and asked curiously, "Could it be the Guan Ning army going south?" Thinking like this, he probably had only this explanation, otherwise how could these Ming soldiers be so powerful?
The Ming army obviously found these soldiers, Wang Huaiming suddenly shouted: "Enemy, enemy!" All the Ming army stationed in the field were indifferent, but gathered together and quickly lined up in a formation of mandarin ducks. Wang Huaiming stood at the front, Because Xiaochuan's indistinct approach has already given him a kind of prestige in the peasant army, standing at the forefront.

"Could it be that the Zhejiang soldiers came here!" Lu Xiangsheng said, and he couldn't help but think of the Daming iron army that drove from the south to the north, along the Hun River, the Ming elite that severely damaged the two yellow flags, and the blood-colored Sun and Moon flag flying on the bank of the Hun River , the same mandarin duck formation, the same mountain-like pressure, he felt a surprise in his heart, the Zhe soldiers were not destroyed!
Teng Yi was also frightened and murmured: "I never thought that the guard station would have such elites!"

"You wait for the thieves to get off the horse and die quickly," Wang Huaiming said, because he had just joined, so he didn't know anything about the Ming army. Maybe the armor he wore was different from his own, so he was a thief in armor.

Seeing the iron gun in the hands of this tall man, Lu Xiangsheng also admired, and said: "My servant, Lu Xiangsheng, the general soldier of Xuanda, who are you!"

"Qingzhou Guard Lieutenant, Wang Huaiming!"
