The more than 400,000 cavalry sent by Chen Wen first finally rushed all the way to the outside of Wu County, but the commander of the army was instantly stunned after seeing the city. This military general is Chen Wen's direct subordinate, and when he left Shouchun, he had already received Chen Wen's advice that when he rushed to Wu County, he only needed to keep an eye on the Baiyun City army from a distance, and not directly participate in the war for the time being. As long as the Baiyun City army does not break through Wu County, do not act rashly.

But now that he was here, before he could set up camp, he saw that Wu County had been breached, and there was not a single defender of Wu County on the city wall. What's going on? Could it be that the ability of the defenders of Wu County is so poor? A county town, under the strong attack of Baiyun City, can't even hold out for a day?

Now what should he do? Will they continue to camp to monitor the Baiyun City army, or will they support the defenders of Wu County? He still doesn't even know if the fighting in the city is over, if the city is occupied, and how to support it. What's more, even if the fighting in the city continues, what can he do with more than 100,000 people? Didn't you see that the other party's army guarding outside the city exceeded 500,000? Although he is a cavalryman, his strength is stronger than most foot soldiers, but the key is that there are a lot of pikemen in the army of Baiyun City now! As long as the leader's head was not caught in the door, he would not go up to the spearmen and cavalry to restrain whom. What's more, the other three reinforcements have not yet arrived, and he doesn't want to rely on the more than 100,000 people under his command to fight with the hundreds of thousands of troops in Baiyun City.

The general didn't dwell on it for long, for they had already been spotted by an army that had remained outside the city. And under the leadership of a military general, they gathered around him. He roughly estimated the number of troops coming from the other party, which should be about 100,000 people, which made the general's hanging heart relax a little, and even let out a sneer in his heart, since the other party is so big, he doesn't mind slaughtering the other party's 100,000 troops first, and then trying to do anything else.

In fact, this military general is not an arrogant person, but he has an army composed of all seventh-order peak soldiers, although such a force cannot be said to be arrogant. But under Chen Wen, it is the most powerful force. Therefore, when he saw that the side of Baiyun City actually only sent an army of 100,000 people out at random, he naturally didn't take it to heart.

At this time, the distance between the two sides was still two or three kilometers, and the general ordered all the cavalry to stand by and wait for his order. All the cavalry rushed forward to kill the army that did not know whether they were alive or dead. will definitely kill the other party without leaving a piece of armor.

The speed of this 100,000-strong army in White Cloud City can be described as extremely fast. In almost a minute, he rushed through a distance of a thousand meters, and the other party's military general saw that the time was almost up. Then he shouted: "Rush! Kill me! ”

For a while, a huge shout of killing resounded throughout the battlefield, and even the hooves of the 100,000 war horses could not be concealed.

When the 100,000 cavalry charged, the ground began to tremble, but the 100,000 Baiyun City troops who rushed towards them did not stop, but rushed faster towards the other party. This scene undoubtedly made the Shouchun military general feel that this Baiyun City army was completely looking for death. Do they still want to charge hard-to-head with the cavalry? This is also an exaggeration. You must know that this is a flat terrain, and this cavalry charges, who can stop it.

But the next scene surprised the general, when the distance between the two sides was only four hundred meters, the opponent's army suddenly stopped, and the column of soldiers in front actually pulled out a piece of equipment from their backs and threw guns!

One of the generals in the "Throwing ......" formation shouted, and suddenly saw a row of spears mixed with this cold wind rushing towards them, and the shining light on the tips of the spears made the Shouchun generals feel chills in their hearts.

A throwing spear was shooting straight at the war horse under his crotch, and the general's steel gun twisted in his hand and blocked it towards the throwing gun.

There was a ......loud bang, and the general felt a huge force coming from the steel spear in his hand, almost causing him to fall off his horse. This general's face changed suddenly, although he only used thirty percent of his strength in the move just now, but he was a king-level peak general, even if the other party was an eighth-order soldier, it was impossible to pose any threat to himself. But now this result shows that the army that the other side is rushing over is definitely not simple.

"Poof...... Puff ......" The sound of sharp weapons entering the flesh suddenly sounded in the ears of this general, followed by the sound of the mournful neighing of war horses, and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground. Even if this general doesn't see this scene, he can guess that he is not far from ten. Obviously, it was his cavalry corps that had suffered a huge blow to the front line, and he knew that although he could pick off the spear, the soldiers under his command definitely did not have such ability. With the density of their own cavalry corps, these throwing guns can hit their targets almost without aiming.

The attack power of the cavalry charge is indeed extremely strong, but the shortcomings are also very obvious, once anyone can make the cavalry rushing in front of him chaotic, then the charge will be destroyed. Now a large number of war horses in front of them were attacked, some of them died directly and collapsed to the ground, while some were severely injured and struggled on the ground, and the cavalry that rushed over behind them couldn't stop at all, and directly collided with them, making this chaotic scene even more chaotic. Of course, the most unlucky were the soldiers who fell from the back of the war horse, and many of them were killed alive.

"Ready...... Throwing! "After throwing a round of throwing guns, the army of Baiyun City on the opposite side made another move, and another row of throwing guns roared towards this side. This time, some of the cavalry that had escaped in the previous round were killed, and although not many fell this time, it was a great blow to the morale of these cavalrymen.

In the Baiyun City military formation, a military general looked at the Yangzhou cavalry that was almost in chaos, and a grim smile could be faintly seen on Yan SΓΉ's face, this person was Gao Shun, the commander of the Lion Legion.

After Yang Tian personally participated in the siege battle, Gao Shun was left behind, they already knew that Chen Wen would send troops to support, so they had to leave a capable general, so Gao Shun stayed as a matter of course. When he saw this large group of cavalry appear not far from him, Gao Shun immediately rushed out with his direct legions in the camp. You must know that Gao Shun's trapped camp is not as good as Zhao Yun's Silver Dragon Iron Cavalry, although the two high-level special arms legions were established late, but Gao Shun's trapped camp has the previous team, when Yang Tian captured Gao Shun, but even the trapped camp was captured together. You must know that at that time, these soldiers in the trapping camp were already eighth-order soldiers, originally A-level qualifications, and after joining Baiyun City, they were all promoted to the ninth order without any suspense, which also made the strength of the trapping camp significantly higher than Zhao Yun's Silver Dragon Iron Cavalry, and at the same time, the Lion Legion also became a legion second only to the Iron Eagle Legion in the number of ninth-order soldiers in the entire Yizhou.

With these ninth-order soldiers rushing to the front, it is strange that those Yangzhou cavalry do not suffer. Hindered by the chaotic cavalry in front, the soldiers who followed in the rear were unable to do so, although they had the intention to cross over and continue to charge. Even if a few cavalry rushed out, they would have little effect if they lost the advantage of the group's charge.

Gao Shun's vision was undoubted, and he immediately ordered the army to charge, using nearly two thousand ninth-order soldiers as arrows, and the entire army chiseled into the cavalry corps in front. For a time, the entire cavalry regiment was screaming, and soldiers were killed almost every minute and every second.

"Retreat!" The cavalry general gave a more correct order, because when the cavalry lost the charge advantage, they were stuck with the foot soldiers who were much stronger than themselves, and they were completely slaughtered. Now this military general didn't think of what he could do, he just hoped that he could save the hundreds of thousands of people under his command, and when the other three reinforcements arrived, he could also have some capital, otherwise even if he was a military general under Chen Wen, others would not necessarily give him face.

The advantage of the cavalry was reflected at this moment, although it was pressed and beaten by the other party when it was entangled with Baiyun City, but after deciding to retreat, its speed was extraordinary, and it quickly got rid of the entanglement of the Baiyun City army, and then rode away. Although these soldiers in the camp were strong, when they saw the other party riding away on their horses, in addition to throwing two more rounds of throwing spears and killing two or three thousand people on the other side, they could only look at the opponent's back and sigh.

However, Gao Shun didn't think that he could wipe out the opponent's army now, and the infantry and cavalry were fighting, unless an ambush was set up in advance, it was basically impossible to annihilate the opponent. Although Gao Shun is confident, he is not arrogant at all. So after the cavalry was gone, he returned to the gate of Wu County with his army.

After another half an hour, the cavalry general of Shouchun finally waited for the other two reinforcements, and their total strength had reached more than 300,000, but in this case, they still did not dare to confront the Baiyun City army, firstly, there was a gap in numbers, and secondly, they could not compare with others in terms of strength. I have to say that this martial artist was frightened by the strong strength of the camp just now, otherwise he would not have hesitated like now.

Although these reinforcements from all over Yangzhou did not move for the time being, the Baiyun City army did not pause at all. Although Xu Gongna's order to retreat allowed the nearly 800,000 elite troops in the city to enter the inner city smoothly, it also accelerated the death of more than a million soldiers in the outer city.

At this moment, Wu County ushered in the darkest moment in history, the blood completely enveloped the entire county, although the soldiers of Baiyun City fully carried out Yang Tian's orders and did not hurt the ordinary people, but this scene of rivers of blood everywhere made them feel extremely frightened.
