Although the East Vietnamese cavalry were still in the dark.
However, the more unclear something is, the more likely it is to feel frightened.
Under the city gate, everyone in Feng Dachuan panicked.
Why did the East Vietnamese come so quickly?
It would take an hour to break down the city gate, and it would probably take a few hours to defend against the Dongyue people.
Even if the Dongyue people come and kill them.
That should be after dawn.
You shouldn't come now!
Zhang Huai looked panicked and asked: "Shuai Feng, what should we do now?"
There are only two ways now, one is to escape outside the city, and the other is to hide inside the capital.
Fleeing outside the city is a living target for the East Vietnamese.
The opponent's cavalry will treat them like moving pigs.
Hunt them one by one.
And if you hide in the capital, you may be able to fight with danger.
Wait for the East Vietnamese cavalry to retreat before making plans.
However, can they all go in before the East Vietnamese cavalry arrives? This is also a question.
Feng Dachuan only hesitated for a moment and then shouted: "There is no other way, let's go both ways at the same time!"
"Those who can get in should go in first. If they can't get in, it's not too late to escape."
After that, he immediately ordered the soldiers to enter the city.
In fact, there was no other way for them to go. Except for entering the city, everywhere they went was a dead end.
In particular, there are still injured people in the team, and a green channel needs to be opened when entering the city.
Now, they can only hope that Zhao Xiaole will not close the city gate cruelly.
If that were the case, there would really be no way to heaven and no way to earth.
At this moment, the eastern sky is slightly white.
Zhao Xiaole also boarded the city gate.
Looking at the cavalry in the distance.
The dawn has not yet reached the earth, and all you can see are the charging black figures riding tall horses.
The minimum number of people is 10,000.
A look of solemnity appeared on Zhao Xiaole's face.
He is not afraid of these people.
What he was worried about was that the 20,000 people who sealed Dachuan might not be able to enter the city in time.
I just hope that there won’t be too many people from East Vietnam.
Li Lin rushed to Zhao Xiaole with an anxious face and asked: "Master Marquis, do you want to close the city gate?"
"If the Dongyue people are let in, the capital will be doomed."
Zhao Xiaole hesitated for a moment and then refused.
It's not that he can't bear it.
But he knew that he still had too few soldiers and horses, and he really couldn't bear to part with these 20,000 elite soldiers.
Wang Han's fifty thousand men entered the city.
However, these 50,000 people had never fought against the East Vietnamese.
The 20,000 people who sealed Dachuan are particularly precious.
He doesn't want to give up.
So, Zhao Xiaole ordered: "Load the shells!"
"If the East Vietnamese come into range, fire immediately."
"I'll leave it to you to command the top of the city. Don't begrudge me the cannonballs and arrows. Use whatever you have and hit me to death!"
As he spoke, Zhao Xiaole's face became a little ferocious.
Li Lin didn't even hear what he said specifically, but he remembered one thing: just fight to death.
After Zhao Xiaole finished his instructions, he shouted again: "Where is the musketeers? Where is my musketeers?"
After hearing the order, the musketeers responded and gathered behind Zhao Xiaole one after another.
Zhao Xiaole first asked the musketeers to ambush on the city wall, and then provided support according to his orders.
If the enemy's cavalry approaches, shoot immediately.
But this is not enough.
He looked further down the city and saw densely packed soldiers rushing in. There were also countless soldiers on the streets of the capital.
Zhao Xiaole called Wang Chong, "Go and bring the Jin Yiwei with you and tell all the soldiers entering the city not to stop for me!"
"Keep running. Unless there is no one behind you, don't stop!"
Wang Chong received the order and went immediately.
Soon, one by one, the imperial guards rushed to the street on their tall horses and began to beat the soldiers who entered the city!
"Run! Run quickly!"
"Don't stop!"
"..."
The soldier didn't know the reason at all. Just after entering the city, he felt that he was a little safer, so he had to stand down and take a breath.
Immediately, a royal guard on horseback rushed over, whipped his head, and drew a bright red blood mark.
The soldiers couldn't resist, so they had to run forward quickly.
As a result, the speed of the team entering the city increased sharply.
There is simply no other way.
If the people in front stop, the people behind will be unable to move at all. In the end, a large number of people will be left behind and unable to enter the city.
And wait for the East Vietnamese to rush over.
Those who stay outside are destined to die.
At this time, cannons were fired at the city gate.
boom--!
Hundreds of gates fired at once, attacking the Dongyue people's team.
For a time, the East Vietnamese cavalry were hit by countless bullets, and they fell to the ground with their horses and men, but the opponent's attack force remained unabated.
Zhao Xiaole took a quick look.
The number of people on the other side is more than 10,000.
The round of artillery fire just now caused the opponent to lose several hundred riders, which was not painful at all for the East Vietnamese.
And the rate of fire of artillery is very slow.
By the time the reloading is completed, it is estimated that the Dongyue people have already reached the city.
Looking below the city, most of the soldiers have not yet entered the city.
Seeing that the East Vietnamese cavalry was about to come, the soldiers below were all panicked and even started to push and curse each other.
The result is that the team is more chaotic and moves slower.
Zhao Xiaole knew in his heart that if he continued, these people would all be destroyed.
The Dongyue people came just for them.
And these soldiers are now like pigs and sheep, waiting to be slaughtered.
Can't wait any longer.
Zhao Xiaole was the first to hold his own steel spear, step on the city wall, and jump down.
At this moment, Feng Dachuan and others did not enter the city. They were driving away the soldiers with riding whips and maintaining order.
Seeing Zhao Xiaole jumping down from the city, Feng Dachuan and others were stunned for a moment, and then felt moved in their hearts.
"Master Hou, you...why are you down?"
Zhao Xiaole didn't talk nonsense to him. He asked for a war horse from other generals and got on it.
"Feng Dachuan, it's too late to enter the city now. Let the soldiers form a formation under the city and fight the opponent."
"If this continues, everyone will be finished."
Feng Dachuan didn't have anything to say, so he immediately nodded in agreement. Then, the soldiers who turned around and rushed into the city started shouting.
Let the teams behind them form a formation directly under the city, preparing to receive the East Vietnamese cavalry attack.
When someone enters the city, someone must stay and cover them.
Fortunately, Feng Dachuan had planned this before, so under the command of various generals and military flags.
The teams that originally planned to enter the city changed their directions.
After all, they are veterans who have experienced war.
After only a brief period of confusion, they quickly formed a square formation below the city head.
They all faced the East Vietnamese cavalry.
The original team, in the rush to enter the city, was scattered and full of flaws. Now, the team has been reorganized.
It has been difficult for the East Vietnamese to take advantage.
But they still didn't slow down.
It turned out that during this attack, they were coming towards the city gate.
