Hazar felt something was wrong in his heart, and immediately called his deputy Wulihan and asked: "Isn't it Yinshi who made the agreement?"
Wulihan rode on his horse and replied: "General, don't be impatient, just wait a moment."
Hazare nodded and looked at the east gate of Lanzhou from a distance, just waiting to lower the suspension bridge and open the gate.
Lanzhou is extremely cold at night in winter, especially outside the city, where the howling north wind chills people to the bone.
Hazare pulled the cloak around his body, but still felt cold. In order to fight tonight, Hazare took off his leather jacket and leather trousers to be more flexible. Now he felt the pain. This time was good. Instead of dying on the battlefield, he would freeze to death in the wilderness.
After another half an hour, the lanterns were lit up again on the city. They were shaking from side to side just like last time. Hazare could not help cursing secretly: The craftsmen in the city must have been asleep and misremembered the time. The suspension bridge was slowly lowered. At a moment, Hazare brandished his sword and gave an order: "Soldiers, follow me to take back Lanzhou, charge." After shouting, he rushed towards the suspension bridge that had not been completely lowered with the elite cavalry around him. The sound of hoofbeats rumbled for a moment and shook the earth.
Maybe it was because he had been freezing for a long time, and Hazaar actually felt that his body was a little stiff. He almost fell off the horse when he was riding forward. How could he enter the city to fight like this? Hazare stopped his horse and allowed his deputy Wulihan to stop. He led his men and horses to rush onto the drawbridge. When the drawbridge was lowered, the city gate also opened wide. Hazare watched his men and horses rush into Lanzhou City.
Hazare couldn't help but feel ecstatic. He reached into his saddlebag and took out a water bag. The water bag was not water, but strong liquor. Hazare pulled out the stopper of the water bag and drank from the mouth to mouth. The hot wine went into his throat. , Hazare felt that his whole body had become much warmer. He threw down his water bag, wielded his sword, and followed the crowd towards Lanzhou City.
Wulihan was the first to bear the brunt. He crossed the suspension bridge first, followed by a huge crowd of people who rushed into the suspension bridge. Wulihan was very familiar with Lanzhou. After entering the east gate, he only had to rush along the street and capture the garrison first before dividing his troops. With four roads occupying four gates, Lanzhou will be in the bag at that time.
The moment he wanted to rush into the city gate, there was no one in front of the gate. But at this moment, Wulihan was focused on rushing into the city. Whether there was anyone in front of the gate was not his concern.
"Kill," Wulihan rode his horse and rushed into the city with his sword in hand. The horse kept running forward. Just after running less than ten feet, the horse suddenly stumbled and fell into a big hole. Wulihan didn't know how to respond. It happened, and his body had been penetrated by several bamboo sticks.
The Yuan army was all cavalry and charging. They were so anxious that they could not restrain their horses. Suddenly, one after another fell into the pit. No matter whether they were men or horses, they would definitely die if they fell into the pit. The pit was two feet deep. In an instant, Nearly a thousand Yuan troops fell into the pit, and the first half of the pit was filled with corpses.
The subsequent Yuan troops still rushed into the city like a tidal wave. Both sides of the street were lined with high loess towers, just like an alley. The Yuan troops could not disperse when entering the city, so they had to rush forward this way.
The cavalry in the front shouted: "There is a trap, go back." In the panic, the follow-up troops could not hear it. For a while, people and horses were crowded, and in a hurry, another group of forwards fell into the big pit.
Nearly 10,000 Yuan soldiers were gathered at the gate of the city, unable to advance or retreat. Behind them, there were Yuan soldiers who had not yet entered the city, shouting and squeezing towards the city. Hazare knew that something bad was going on, and shouted repeatedly: " withdraw troops,"
While the Yuan soldiers in the city were clashing like headless flies, black masses of Ming troops suddenly appeared on the earthen walls on both sides of the long street. Before the Yuan soldiers could react, they saw thousands of arrows fired and guns and artillery roaring.
The city gate was instantly plunged into a sea of fire. The Yuan troops fell off their horses and suffered heavy casualties. Pools of corpses and blood, broken flags and armor could be seen everywhere on the long street. In less than an hour, most of the Yuan troops who entered the city were dead or injured. At least the follow-up troops retreated quickly, ha. Hazare led his remnants of troops and fled eastward. After a long run, he realized that the Ming army was not pursuing him. Hazare quickly ordered his men to count the troops, only to find that less than 5,000 men had escaped with their lives.
The Lanzhou Suspension Bridge was raised again, the city gate was closed, and everything returned to silence, as if the city gate had never been opened.
In the west gate of the city, Meng Ge and District Dachui were preparing to leave the city to attack the camp. When the gunfire rang out at the east gate, Meng Ge not only shouted loudly: "Come here, behead the two brothers Hou Ji and Hou Yong to sacrifice the flag." ,"
The two brothers Hou Ji and Hou Yong and more than a dozen of their party members were tied up and kneeling beside the city gate. After receiving the order, more than a dozen executioners in red stepped forward with machetes and stood behind the prisoners who were waiting to fight. As the body fell to the ground and splattered with blood, the west gate of Lanzhou City slowly opened.
Meng Ginger took the lead and rushed out of the city with a big sword. Four thousand cavalry followed him and rushed into the dark fields outside the city. While drinking tea, Ou Dachui held two pumpkin hammers and shouted: "Charge," After a loud shout, he led four thousand cavalry and followed Meng Ge's footsteps.
This is Zhang Wen's plan. The front team's attack on the camp will surely severely damage the Yuan army. The Yuan army will be attacked and dispersed. Once the front team passes by, the Yuan army will relax their vigilance, and then the second team will attack the camp again. , it should be a great achievement.
Hazar felt something was wrong in his heart, and immediately called his deputy Wulihan and asked: "Isn't it Yinshi who made the agreement?"
Wulihan rode on his horse and replied: "General, don't be impatient, just wait a moment."
