Chapter 21 Falling the Stars

And Wang Chongyin volunteered to be the commander-in-chief of the first echelon to attack Xuanzhou. Cao Shixiong was very moved. He grabbed Wang Chongyin's hands and did not want to let go for a long time. The two brothers of the opposite sex who were born and died have a thousand words to say at this moment. Read it, thousands of miles of smoke and waves, and the dusk is heavy and the sky is vast. Only a confidant knows the reason.

When Wang Chongyin saw Cao Shixiong staring at him without blinking, he smiled, pulled back his hand, took two big hammers from his own soldiers, raised them over his head, and said, " Shixiong, this time, I must cooperate with Tang Ju to take Xuanzhou!"

Cao Shixiong said, "Heiyin, the five tigers in Xuanzhou are very powerful. You must be careful. I sent Chang Hong and Wang Mei to assist you in attacking the city together. You should discuss everything and don't be brave and reckless. I will allocate 20,000 elite soldiers to you. Be sure to take down the north city of Xuanzhou. Gaihong and I will lead 50,000 troops to follow up.

Wang Chongyin agreed and turned around and left. Gai Hong shouted, "Chongyin, the siege equipment should be carefully checked to ensure that it can play a role in the siege."

"Well, don't worry, I will meet the Five Tigers of Xuanzhou this time!" Wang Chongyin replied loudly, and then took Chang Hong and Wang Mei to prepare for the siege.

Xu Tangying, Fei Chuangu and Liu Ying stayed in Ningguo for a few days. After preparing to attack the south city of Xuanzhou, they rose up and killed Xuanzhou. The Tang army visited Ma Fei and reported to the city. After the five Xuanzhou Tang generals, Ganzhen, Yu Chao, Leng Feng, Zhugong and Hulin, gathered together to discuss the military situation.

Yu Chao said, "Huangchao thief Xu Tangjun's army must have been fully prepared for this time. The thief army attacked the city and plundered the village all the way. I think it's better to stick to Xuanzhou and send messengers to the surrounding towns to ask for reinforcements.

Zhang Gong waved his hand and shouted, "I am against this kind of passive defense. The only best strategy is to send strong troops out of the city to meet the enemy, defeat the spirit of the thieves, and appeasing the hearts of the army and the people. Then you can win according to the situation or fight or defense.

Ganzhen is the head of the generals in Xuanzhou. After listening to the words of Yu Chao and Zhuan Gong, it makes sense to think about it and is uncertain for a moment. Hulin stepped forward and said, "The young general is not talented. He is willing to lead a man and horse with his power to open the city to fight against the thief Xu Tangju's department. I heard that Xu Tangjiu is the Changsheng general of the Huangchao thief army, with both wisdom and courage. This time I want to defeat the arrogance of the thief and capture Xu Tangjiu! Strong the military power of the Tang Dynasty!"

After listening to Hulin's words, Gan Zhen couldn't help but surge his blood and blurted out, "Since the two generals Zhugong and Hulin are determined to open the city but the enemy, let's have a try. I will allocate 5,000 elite soldiers for you two. You must act quickly, take raid tactics, and quickly retreat to the city after a fight to touch the details of the thief army."

Zhu Gong and Hulin ordered 5,000 elite soldiers, opened the south gate of Xuanzhou, and killed Xu Tangju's battalion. After Xu Tangju got the report, he said to Fei Chuangu, "The Xuanzhou Tang army took the initiative to fight, and it's really hard to ask for it. Mr. Fei, I can see the camp!"

Fei Chuangu shook his head and said, "The enemy is unknown, so you can't fight rashly. I expect that there are not many troops in Xuanzhou this time, mainly to find out the details of our army. With a little contact, they will evacuate. Therefore, my army should build up barriers and let it be scolded and challenged. When the Tang army was tired and loosened and retreated, you led 10,000 elite soldiers to cover up and drive the Tang soldiers into Xuanzhou. I ordered Liu Ying to lead 10,000 troops to set an ambush on both sides of the fighting place. If the enemy army in Xuanzhou comes out again, when the enemy enters our encirclement, our whole army will attack and win a great victory.

Xu Tangju nodded and praised, "Mr. Fei is a wonderful calculation and has won the essence of Sun Tzu's military method. If the Tang army does not accept it, come back to fight with me. If Liu Ying's army kills, the Tang army will be defeated."

Liu Ying said happily, "Mr. Fei's plan is to stone two birds with one stone. No matter how cunning the enemy is, he will be disabled."

Zhang Gong and Hulin led the troops all the way south and came to the Rebel camp fiercely. Zhuan Gong shouted: "Which one is Xu Tangju? Have the guts to come out and fight with me! Zhuan Gong is going to learn Xu Tangjun's halberd method today, but don't be a shrinking turtle! Hahaha!"

Hulin then ordered Tang soldiers to shout in unison and cursed unbearably, but there was no movement in the camp, and only a few volunteers were standing guarding. Hu Lin said to Zhuan Gong, "General Zhuan, the thief ignored us. Let's just go in!"

Zhanggong shook his head: "Xu Tang Juqian is brave and good at fighting, and there are many people and horses. If we come to be a bully and break in, we will definitely be defeated by the thief army, or we will still scold for safety here. I will order me to scold vigorously!"

Hulin had no choice but to order Tang Bingliang to open his voice and continue to scold. Many Tang Bing was tired of scolding and sat on the ground to rest. Some simply took off their armor and took a nap, looking exhausted.

Time passed quickly, the sun reached the center of the sky, the dark clouds in the sky increased, the wind gradually strengthened, and the wind direction blew from south to north. Zhugong felt hungry and suddenly realized that he could no longer stay in front of the "thief" camp. If he stayed a little longer, the danger would increase by one point.

Zhenggong immediately turned the horse's head and ordered the troops to withdraw back to the city as soon as possible. Tang soldiers got the order and quickly turned around and ran in the direction of Xuanzhou. At this time, the door of the Rebel Camp opened, and Xu Tang Ju was hung all over his body, with Fang Tianhua halberd in his hand, and roared, "Brothers of the fifth village of Daqi, follow me to kill the Tang soldiers who insulted us!"

10,000 righteous soldiers followed Xu Tangju and shouted out of the camp. Zhuan Gong was shocked and urged the horse to run in a hurry, but because the Tang soldiers and horses were crowded, Zhuan Gong and Hulin could only fall behind. Xu Tangjun led the soldiers to kill, and Zhuan Gong and Hulin had no choice but to strictly order Tang soldiers to turn back and fight. However, at this time, the army was confused, and they were killed by the rebels and abandoned their armor and collapsed.

After all, Zhugong is a brave general. He knows that there is only a fight to the death, and maybe there is still a way to survive. Zhuan Gong waved the five poisonous dragon gun and came to fight against Xu Tangju. The two generals and two horses met, and the halberd fought together. There was no victory or defeat in the battle. Zhugong was eager to win, so he made a "poisonous dragon coil neck" and the tip of the gun went straight to Xu Tangju's throat. Xu Tangju's head deflected and dodged the shot and used the unique skill "Wenhou killed the dragon and tiger". Fang Tian painted a halberd to hit the body like lightning. The halberd could not crack Xu Tangju's unique stunt. He was hit by Xu Tangju's halberd, and most of his ster bones were broken. He turned over and fell off the horse. Even the ** mount was broken by the halberd rod. The ground mourns. The volunteers rushed over, and the achievements were immediately trampled into mud.

Hulin was shocked and waved the hen's claws and came to fight Xu Tangju. The battle was not ten. Xu Tangju roared, like a lion's power. Hulin trembled and moved slightly slowly. He was in the gap by Xu Tangju. He made a move of "wind swinging willows", and the tip of the halberd rubbed on Hulin's right arm. Hulin was in severe pain. He shook his horse and fled. Xu Tangju was willing to give up and chased him bravely. He hit Hulin's back and went straight through his heart. Hulin was killed on the spot.

Tang Bing was defeated and was killed by Xu Tangju, leaving only more than 1,000 people to flee to Xuanzhou. Gan Zhen was repaid, extremely angry, and vowed to avenge his achievements and Hulin. At this time, Xu Tangju just led his troops to the city of Xuanzhou and ordered some volunteers to call for a battle, while other volunteers grabbed the booty. When the enemy met, he was very jealous. Gan Zhen ordered to send troops to fight desperately with Xu Tangju. Yu Chao discouraged him and said, "General Gan, now that Zhuan Gong and Hulin have been beheaded, the morale of our army is low. Now if we go to war and fall into the arms of the thief army, it is better to wait for help."

Gan Zhen said to Yu Chao, "Zhu Gong and Hu Lin are my life-and-death brothers. They were killed by Xu Tangju. I must avenge this today! I will order 5,000 troops to fight. I must defeat the fierce spirit of the thief and kill Xu Tangju. You and the cold front will defend the city. Let's see how I can avenge my achievements and Hulin!" After saying that, Gan Zhen took a golden-backed ball knife, ordered 5,000 Tang soldiers, opened the south door, and went straight to Xu Tangju.

Xu Tangju couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Ganzhen's Pegasus coming out. He thought that Mr. Fei's divine calculation, and the Tang army really went out of the city to fight again. Xu Tangju jumped to support the halberd and shouted, "Tang General listened. Zhuan Gong and Hu Lin spoke rudely and scolded endlessly, and they have been killed by me. Daqi soldiers eliminated violence and peace, killed the rich and helped the poor. It's not too late for you to stop the cliff and surrender. If you are obsessed and resist to the end, Zhugong and Hulin are your role models!"

Gan Zhen's eyes were red, and he raised his knife and scolded: "Xu Tangju, you and I were not wronged in the past. Why did you lead the army to commit our Xuanzhou! Kill my brother! If this revenge is not avenged, I am willing to stand in vain. Xu Tangjun, take your life!"

Ganzhen swung his horse and killed Xu Tangju together. The two generals fought 50 or 60, and there was no winner. Xu Tangju saw that Ganzhen's knife method was proficient and flawless, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised. Xu Tangju thought of Fei Chuangu's trick, so he shook his halberd and plucked his horse and left. Ganzhen urged Tang soldiers to chase forward, and Xu Tangju deliberately defeated and let Ganzhen chase and kill the volunteers for a while.

In this way, Gan Zhen chased all the way to the front of the Rebel camp. Xu Tangju returned to Gan Zhen and said, "General Gan, you have good martial arts skills. Why don't you give up secretly? When I serve as a general, we will definitely reuse you."

Gan Zhen shouted: "Xu Tangju, I also know that you are a hero, but since I am a general of the Tang Dynasty, I am determined to coexist with the Tang Dynasty! Gan Zhen and you, either you die or I die, it is absolutely impossible to negotiate peace!"

Xu Tangyu sighed: "General Gan, in this case, don't blame Xu Tangyu for being ruthless! Daqi brothers, I order you to attack all the lines and attack Xuanzhou!"

The camp door was opened, and Fei Chuangu ordered the volunteer crossbowman to shoot sharply, which made the Tang soldier turn his horse upside down. On the second side of the Tang soldiers, the cannons were full of cannons, and there were killing sounds everywhere. Liu Ying wore a big red robe, wore willow leaf phoenix wing armor, with a green duckweed sword on his back, and commanded 10,000 volunteers to rush to the Tang soldiers. Xu Tang Ju led the soldiers back to fight. Although Ganzhen was brave and had a great disparity in strength, he was made dumplings by the Rebels. Tang soldiers were defeated. Gan Zhen was killed out of the siege and fled to Xuanzhou. Xu Tangjun ordered the whole army to go out and attack the city quickly. The rebels built a flying bridge on the moat, and then erected many ladders to climb bravely and kill the head of the city.

Ganzhen, Yu Chao and Leng Feng urgently ordered Tang Bing to fight back with wolf teeth, which made the heads of the volunteers in the city break blood and fall down the ladder one after another. In the south city of Xuanzhou, the killing of both sides were shocking and fighting desperately.

Just as Ganzhen led the Tang army to die in Xuanzhou Nancheng, Wang Chongyin heard the sound of killing in the south of Xuanzhou and knew that Xu Tangju was commanding the volunteers on the South Road to attack the city. He immediately ordered Chang Hong and Wang Mei to lead 10,000 elite soldiers to attack the north city of Xuanzhou. The Tang army had only a few hundred troops in the North Gate, and the rest were transferred to the South Gate to fight. They were attacked by Chang Hong and Wang Mei, and quickly opened several gaps.

Chang Hong waved the tiger's head and double hooks and bravely climbed to the city, killing the Tang soldiers everywhere; Wang Mei's bright silver swallow wings were begled, and the Tang soldiers fled one after another. Chang Hong and Wang Mei commanded the volunteers to open the north gate. Wang Chongyin was the first to wave a double hammer and enter the city. The righteous soldiers rushed in and shouted loudly.

Gan Zhen was shocked when he received the news of the loss of the North Gate and quickly ordered Yu Chao and Leng Feng to command Tang soldiers to break through and want to flee to Huzhou before making a plan. At this time, Cao Shixiong and Gai Hong received the news that the rebels had broken the city. Ma *70,000 horses were divided into multiple routes and surrounded Xuanzhou. Ganzhen, Yu Chao and Leng Feng led troops to rush through many times and never broke through the siege of the rebels.

Gan Zhen had no choice but to clean up the remaining soldiers, retreat into the inner city, and count the soldiers and horses. There were only two or three thousand people. He sighed: "I am stubborn and don't accept Yu Chao's words, resulting in today's defeat!"

Yu Chao said, "General Gan is loyal and brave to the country. He is a model for us to learn from. We are willing to follow General Gan, kill himself and become benevolent, and never surrender to the thief!"

At this time, Wang Chongyin led the volunteers and began to attack the inner city. Gan Zhen commanded the Tang soldiers to resist, but they were outnumbered, and the inner city was quickly broken by the volunteers. Wang Chongyin was very excited. He held his hammers high and shouted at Ganzhen. Chang Hong and Wang Mei followed closely behind.

Yu Chao shouted, "Don't hurt my master! Yu Chao is coming!" With a nine-eared and eight-ring Taiyin knife in his hand, he patted the Malay Warlord Chongyin, and the battle was not ten. Wang Chongyin used his unique skill "angry god smashing the universe" and shot down Yu Chao down the horse with one hammer. With another hammer, Yu Chao's life ended. Leng Feng saw that all five interiors were burned, waving fishtail double hooks, screaming to kill Wang Chongyin, and were intercepted and killed by Chang Hong and Wang Mei.

When Gan Zhen saw Wang Chongyin's horse coming, he quickly took a bow and arrow and shot at Wang Chongyin. Wang Chongyin was shot in the throat by Gan Zhen's arrow because he was too excited and neglected to prevent it. He turned over and fell down immediately. At this time, Chang Hong and Wang Mei had killed the cold front. Seeing Wang Chongyin's death in battle, they couldn't help burning in anger, and the second general shouted to kill Gan Zhen.

If you want to know what's going on, let's take a look at the next chapter.
