A considerable number of the generals under the command of Shi Le came from the Central Plains and Hebei in many pastures, and later in the process of the southern conquest and the northern war, they entangled the scattered Hu tribes in various places, so the number of excellent horsemen was extremely large. The huge cavalry team thus established not only played an important role in blocking the battlefield, controlling and transmitting information.

At this moment, although Shi Le led the army to ambush outside the battlefield, with the scout team that traveled back and forth, every move of the Juancheng Jin army was insightful for him. As soon as the collapse of the Jin army began, the murderous thieves who were eyeing the outside world began to deploy. They are like beasts that have been entangled with their prey for a long time, so they are extremely agitated, and they have been waiting for this final killing feast for a long time.

However, perhaps it was the repeated tragic defeats that brought too much pressure to the Jin army, or perhaps it was the desperation of the embattled that made people lose their rational judgment. The catastrophe, which involved tens or even hundreds of thousands of people, was more terrible than anyone could have imagined. Before the butcher's knives of the thieves arrived, the soldiers and civilians were already seized by the panic of the impending catastrophe, and they ran aimlessly, causing all kinds of tragic scenes and huge casualties.

"The thieves are coming! The city has fallen! The city has fallen! Run! ”

All kinds of panicked shouts, violent shouts, and frightened cries were woven into a thick net, covering everyone's heads, almost suffocating. On the streets of Juancheng, countless soldiers and civilians rushed from all directions, pushing each other, trying to run in other directions that clashed with each other, and the crowds of people were piled up in layers to form a black oppressive patch, and at the same time, more people poured out from various mansions, military villages, and camps to join the chaos.

If anyone is lucky enough to make it down the street to the city gates, they will see a fierce battle between the soldiers and the city guards who are crowded at the gates.

Since repeated defeats in the Central Plains, one elite army after another under the command of the king of the East China Sea has become a rout and a defeated army. The shogunate reluctantly gathered some of them, but even though they continued to send powerful civil and military forces to reorganize, they could not restore their combat effectiveness in a hurry, and the defeated soldiers and wounded who continued to join their ranks made the already low morale even more shaky. When the cavalry of the Central Plains thieves drove straight to the city, the mere passing by the edge of their camp made them feel terrified. Without hesitation, they abandoned the newly appointed chief officer, and rushed in the direction of the city gates.

The army in charge of the city's defense was the subordinate of Qiu Guangsuo, Sima Yue's close general. This army belonged to one of the reliable forces that existed when Sima Yue raised troops in the East China Sea, so even when the Central Plains war situation was at its most critical, it was not easily thrown into the battlefield, and its structure and strength were very complete, which can be said to be quite combative. However, after Yang Feixiang, the captain in charge of the city's defense, found that there were traces of the cavalry of the bandit brigade outside the city, his immediate thought was to close the city gate and keep the danger out, regardless of the fact that the defeated soldiers outside the city might be slaughtered by the bandits.

The city gates were being closed here, but the other side was about to hide in the city, and the two sides suddenly clashed into one place. At the beginning, it was still a combination of fists and feet, but at some point, swords, guns, swords and halberds were on the same page, and the casualties were heavy. After all, there were more defeated troops outside the city, and they fought for the gates more fiercely than in any previous battle. Most of the defenders of the gate were quickly killed. Even if Yang Feixiang was furious and personally led more than a dozen heavily armed armor soldiers to rush down from the city, he could not stop the wolf rush of the defeated soldiers.

The lieutenant and his men whirled and tumbled to the ground like dead leaves thrown into the rapids. Yang Feixiang, whose face was covered in blood, wanted to roar a few times, but a cart full of sundries was pushed over recklessly and pressed past his chest and abdomen. The tremendous pressure instantly caused his abdominal cavity to burst, and all his internal organs overflowed, and a section of his intestines rolled into the spokes of the wheel, which was pulled very long and snapped violently.

The defeated soldiers did not pay any attention to the fate of the captain of the city gate, they rushed into the city with cheers, and some began to cut and disperse the soldiers and civilians who were congested in the streets, trying to hide further to a safer place; Others had a more thoughtful idea, so they turned around and closed the city gates, only to be in a fight with their companions later. With the city gate as the center, all kinds of frenzied states spread to all sides, and people died inexplicably every moment, and the corpses were immediately trampled into mud by countless people.

This situation lasted for nearly half an hour, until the elite guards in charge of guarding the Tokai King's shogunate lined up the crowd and brought the news that the Tokai King was about to abandon Juancheng while trying to restore order.

In the next moment, the tide that had been surging inward suddenly turned around, and people rushed out of the blood-filled city gate corridor, like an anthill watered by boiling water, and countless ants struggled to disperse.

A middle-aged man with a few riders rushed to the city gate at this time. They whipped their horses under their hips, mercilessly knocked down several of the soldiers who stood in his way, and finally squeezed into the crowd and rushed out of the city.

The situation outside the city was as chaotic as in the city, and on the east-west official roads, people were shouting, horses were neighing, and fights that had lost their minds because of panic were everywhere, so that the wide official roads were almost infinite. Many more simply scattered and ran on the wasteland on both sides of the road, not knowing where they were going.

The group recoiled slightly, and a large number of soldiers and civilians broke out of the city gate, and hundreds of people violently wrapped them in the middle. The crowd slammed into their horses, forcing them to stagger through the ditch on the south side of the official road, and look to be on their way to the woodland farther away. The middle-aged man shouted and shouted to no avail, so he had to pull out the long knife on his waist with a "swish" to threaten. This murderous action suddenly frightened the crowd, and they quickly dispersed some distance to let them return to the vicinity of the official road.

"Master Zhangzhai, what should I do next?" One of the riders asked loudly wiping his sweaty forehead.

This middle-aged man's surname is Zhang Mingwu, and he was Hu Liuniang's right-hand man when he fell into the grass. When Lu Yao, Xue Tong and others fled into the Taihang Mountains to take refuge in the county lord of Jingling, it was he who came forward and welcomed everyone into the Funiu Village, so it was also Lu Yao's old acquaintance. Zhang Wu has a cautious personality, is loyal and reliable, and has an organic change; The upper and lower people in the Funiu village can be roughly preserved under the invasion of the Huns, and it depends on the strength of this person. After Lu Yao became the general of Pingbei, Hu Liuniang recruited him from Bingzhou and recommended him to serve in the military government. Later, Lu Yao sent capable personnel to various parts of the Central Plains to undertake espionage and reconnaissance missions, and specially appointed Zhang Wu as the chief person in charge.

It's just that no one expected Hu Liuniang to have a whim and snatch it out and take over the heavy responsibility. Zhang Wu was instead instructed by Hu Liuniang to follow the Shogunate of the King of the East China Sea. In the past six months, he has made friends and bribed the shogunate civil and military, and has achieved some results.

After all, the Pingbei Military Government is a start-up, and there are few talents who have the ability to serve as spies and explore the reality of various places. However, the former bandits from Barberry Village are barely usable, and they are all accompanied by adversity, and there is no problem in loyalty. Because of this, many of the first batch of people selected by the military government to go south are old copycats. As soon as this group of people arrived at a critical moment, they couldn't help but take out the old title of "Zhang Zhai Master".

"How do I know!" Zhang Wu put the knife back into its sheath and shook his head again and again: "This Juancheng is full of waste, and the thieves don't know where they are, so it's like this...... Let's wait and see! ”
