As early as when the tiger and leopard rode back to attack the vanguard of the Wu army by surprise and beheaded Liao Guang, the men and horses in front of the west gate of Changshu had been quickly assembled. But when the thousands of soldiers here wanted to go out of the city to kill, they were stopped by Dong Ping, and he only ordered the whole army to stay in front of the door until he gave the order to open the city to fight.

So the next half an hour or so was a great torment for the thousands of Shandong troops in front of the West Gate. Knowing that their robes were fighting bravely outside the city, even in danger, some people could see the breakthrough battle from the cracks in the city gate, but they couldn't go out to meet the rescue, which really made people feel too aggrieved, and many people felt that there was a fire in their chests that was constantly burning more and more.

However, under the construction of Sun Tu, the Shandong army paid the most attention to military orders, and did not get the order of the main general, even if they bit the steel teeth, they would not dare to really open the city to fight. Many soldiers who were deeply puzzled and dissatisfied with this had the idea of asking Sun Chuzhi to come and give the order as soon as possible, but Sun Tu at the south gate did not raise any questions about Dong Ping's decision at the west gate, let alone crossed Dong Ping at this time to order an attack.

Employing people has always been one of the reasons why Sun Tu can convince many generals, since he handed over Ximen's army to Dong Ping, but I believe that he can make the most correct judgment. So even if he had some conflicts with the orders he had given, he chose to believe Dong Ping.

So the tiger and leopard cavalry outside the city could only continue to fight alone, several times out of the enemy's encirclement, killing everyone with blood, all with injuries, seeing that the soldiers in front of the West Gate were even more anxious, hating to replace them. Until they saw that thousands of people from the rebel army had directly blocked the west gate, cutting off the last retreat of the tiger and leopard cavalry, all the soldiers finally couldn't bear it anymore, and ran to Dong Ping, who was still overlooking the entire battle situation at the head of the city, and shouted for battle:

"Eunuch, you can't wait any longer, otherwise the brothers of the tiger and leopard rider will all be folded in the hands of the anti-thief!"

"General, every time you take a step, a brother is killed, how can you bear it?"

"General Dong, if you don't dare to fight, the brothers will kill ...... by themselves."

Those who are kind to persuade each other, those who bitterly state their interests, and those who are dissatisfied with the agitation...... All kinds of rhetoric continued to sound, and all of these soldiers were red-faced, and their eyes were about to be on fire, and it seemed that as long as Dong Ping refused to send troops to his orders, they would disobey the order and go out of the city desperately.

However, Dong Ping's expression was still as indifferent as before, only the eyes that glanced down at the four directions showed a hint of murder and light. In fact, he didn't know that a short delay would mean that a cavalry soldier would die here, but he knew better the contrast between the forces of the enemy and us, if he couldn't rescue the tiger and leopard cavalry in one fell swoop, once he was entangled by the enemy, the price he would pay would only be greater.

Tzu does not command the army, and sometimes in order to achieve the ultimate goal, it is true that some people must be sacrificed. What's more, Dong Ping also believes that with the elite of the tiger and leopard riding, even if he is under siege, he can still support it for a period of time. It was only at this time, seeing that the remaining two hundred cavalry were about to be swallowed up by thousands of enemy troops, and the extremely elite anti-army had been swept away, and there was no longer any reservation, two sparks broke out in his eyes, Huo Di turned around, and his gaze swept over the dozen or so generals who asked for battle beside him.

After seeing that their hearts were weak and they lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at him, Dong Ping said softly in his mouth: "Kaecheng, go to war!" ”

This sentence made everyone stunned for a moment, and then reacted, and was overjoyed to quickly follow behind Dong Ping, rushing straight down the city tower, in the loud shouting, the city gate opened suddenly, and before the drawbridge fell, many anxious soldiers had rushed out.

Dong Ping had also neatly flipped onto the horse's back, with two guns in his hands, urging the horse to shoot out of the city at the fastest speed like a hungry beast, and behind him were more hideous-looking and screaming Shandong army soldiers!

Before the drawbridge had completely landed, thousands of people were already scrambling to rush to the rear of the enemy with shouts. And even in the case of such a eager charge, this Shandong elite still maintains absolute discipline, and the queue that does not seem to be too neat still has the appearance of the most conducive to assault and arrow, and at the forefront of the formation is Dong Ping, the main general of the first army.

When the west gate suddenly opened and the Song army came out, the soldiers and horses of the Wu army's Tianzi battalion were still besieging and killing with all their might, and the number of tigers and leopards had plummeted to only about 150 people.

This cavalry of the Song army was more tenacious and good at fighting than they imagined, even if they were besieged and looked like they had no way to live, they were still constantly rushing left and right, trying to open a bloody way. However, each of their attacks was blocked by layers of battle formations, and although they killed a lot of enemies, they also paid a heavy price, and the casualties skyrocketed.

But even so, they did not give in at all, and everyone was determined to fight to the death. Even if the war horse dies and falls to the ground, it still grits its its teeth and fights bloodily until it is exhausted and killed. This kind of murderous aura made the surrounding Wu troops feel terrified, and they could only rely on the superiority in strength to constantly surround and kill on all sides in order to keep the enemy here.

And just when Fang Kui, the main general of the Tianzi Battalion, thought that he would be able to end this battle soon, and at the same time, the armies on both sides had quickly surrounded him, but there was a shout like thunder behind him, and when someone looked back in surprise, he saw a full 5,000 Song troops surging towards him.

How dare the defenders venture out of the city? Don't they know that there are now 100,000 troops outside the city, and once they come out, they will inevitably end up in the same fate as this cavalry? Many Wu soldiers had strange thoughts in their hearts, which also made them inevitably feel a little frightened.

But the battlefield is changing rapidly, how can there be a moment of distraction? Just when they were stunned, the tiger and leopard rider who seemed to be at the end of the crossbow suddenly burst out with a strong impact again, and under the leadership of Yue Fei and Lin Chong, they decisively leaned towards the Shandong army that was constantly killing.

In the midst of the constant screams, they forcibly tore apart two lines of defense, but in the end, they were blocked by the third and fourth teams who reacted. Yue Fei shouted, and the spear in his hand turned into a phantom again, stabbing the four enemy soldiers in front of him to the ground, but the momentum was old, but the attack was also blocked by a big knife from the side. At the same time, several cold arrows suddenly attacked from the side, although he dodged in time, he couldn't dodge them all, and an arrow had already been hit in his left shoulder, making him let out a muffled snort, and the movements in his hand also slowed down.

Fortunately, there was Lin Chong beside him, seeing that Yue Fei was injured, he immediately danced his spear wildly, and once again forced back the dozen or so enemy soldiers who rushed over, but in this way, his momentum had to slow down, and it also allowed the enemy to move people and horses to this side more calmly, blocking their ferocious impact.

At the same time, Dong Ping, who was riding his horse at the forefront of the team, had also been killed, and as soon as the roar started, the two spears had thunderbolted out, and they stabbed straight into the chests of the two enemy soldiers who had just turned around to block, and with the shaking of his hand, the two corpses that were still spurting blood had crashed out, knocking the people and horses behind them into a back!

The two-gun general Dong Ping's martial arts are not under Lin Chong, and at this time, it is unstoppable to go all out, and he actually let him disrupt the back road of the Tianzi Camp by himself.

Fang Kui was also shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly ordered to send men and horses to the rear to resist the incoming army, and at the same time strictly ordered the surrounding soldiers and horses to attack the encircled cavalry with all their might, and to annihilate them all at any cost!

At the same time, the Wu army on both sides and in front of them also increased the speed of advancing and outflanking again, and when they saw that the Song army actually dared to take the initiative to go out of the city, they were also completely enraged and rushed forward with all their might.

This is a battle to see who is faster, although at this time the Song army in front of the West Gate has surpassed the Wu army in terms of strength, but once they are entangled by the men and horses of the Tianzi battalion, when the follow-up men and horses are killed, only four or five thousand people will be trapped by tens of thousands of enemy troops, and they will end up like tigers and leopards.

But since Dong Ping dared to take the initiative to go out of the city to launch an attack at this time, he naturally had his certainty. Just when the Tianzi camp was in a hurry to deploy manpower to defend the rear, the Shandong army that had been killed from the city had already followed Dong Ping's pace.

These officers and soldiers of the Shandong Army, who had been holding their breath for a long time and couldn't wait to go into battle early in the morning, were all red-eyed at this time, and pounced on the enemy like vicious wolves. A single charge quickly tore through the enemy's defenses, deepening and spreading the breach.

The impact of the Blade Array was also completely revealed at this moment, under the full strength of these thousands of men and horses, the enemy could not be stopped at all, and the iron bucket formation laid out by the Tianzi Battalion had been torn in half, and the hundreds of tiger and leopard cavalry warriors who were still struggling to support were exposed.

Looking at these bloody cavalry, all the soldiers were even more encouraged, and rushed forward again, killing the enemies who were still around them, and the corpses were scattered on the ground.

"Sect Leader Lin, Pengju, let you suffer. I'll go back to the city with me! Dong Ping rushed to them first, and when he waved his two guns, no one dared to approach, and with a shout in his mouth, he quickly turned his horse's head.

Yue Fei and Lin Chong were also injured in many places at this time, and their strength was too much to recover, and they didn't even have the strength to reply loudly, so they just nodded vigorously, and followed behind Dong Ping and the soldiers who came later, and killed towards Changshu Ximen.

At this time, the enemy army that had been stubbornly defending behind had already collapsed, and even if Fang Kui gave a loud order to urge, those soldiers of the Tianzi Battalion did not dare to kill them regardless of life or death. After seeing the brave performance of the Shandong army, they all had a heart of fear, how dare they still entangle, they all gave way out, and let this infantry cavalry coalition army break out of the encirclement and go straight to the west gate.

When Dong Ping and the others led the army to the west gate, the two armies that rushed to the left and right were able to merge with the Tianzi battalion, and then quickly pushed forward. Obviously, they wanted to rely on these 20,000 or 30,000 horses to directly launch a fierce attack on Changshu West Gate.

But at this moment, there was a crisp dinging sound from the rear of the Wu army, but it was Mingjin who withdrew his troops. This stunned all the soldiers who still wanted to kill the past, but they did not dare to disobey the military order, so they could only hate to stop and watch the enemy enter the city and close the gate.

At this time, the sky had darkened, and the first battle between the Song and Wu armies finally ended with the victory of the Shandong army......
